On November 23, the nation
will be celebrating a tradition
which has been continued for
more than 347 years. Thanks-
giving is our one national hol-
iday that does not have its ori-
gin in politics, war, or the
birthday of some long dead
national hero. The celebration
of this day does not highlight
patriotism, or bring to mind
how lucky we are to have a
particular form of government.
Its real purpose is to take ac-
count of all the blessings that
have been ours during the past
year.
The tradition of thanksgiving
originated with a small group
of English “separatists” who
There was a wise man in
the East whose constant prayer
was that he might see today wi-
th the eyes of tomorrow.

left their homeland on the May-
flower and sailed to North A-
merica and established the
Plymouth settlement. They
sighted land on Nov. 19, 1620.
During the first winter over
half the entire band perished
of disease, hunger, and expo-
sure. In the following spring
the Pilgrims made friends with
the Monhegan and Pokanoket In-
dians. They taught the Pil-
grims how to plant corn and
other crops. It was a warm
and bright season and the
crops grew and thrived. When
autumn arrived, the three log
warehouses were filled with
the harvest of 23 acres of
corn and six acres of wheat,

virtually no previous notice,
Linda Becker, Cheryl Keller,
and Steve Schmidly gave ren-
ditions of two Ed Ames hits—
“My Cup Runneth Over” and
“Who Will Answer?”.
On Monday, Nov. 11, Jimmy
Waters entertained the IL PIZ-
ZICATO members by singing
and accompanying himself on
the guitar. Jimmy, who is
a freshman from Morton, not
only plays the guitar and sings,
but he composes songs as well.
His very fine composition, “Ca-
n’t You Hear My Heart”, was
among his selections with “I
Believe”.
As the members of IL PIZ-
ZICATO know, new and good
talent is certainly not scarce
at South Plains. Anyone and
everyone is always welcome
to come to IL PIZZICATO me-
etings—the place to see and
to hear the young people who
are putting their musical tal-
ents to good uses.
IL PIZZICATO, the campus
music club, has had an out-
standing series of programs
this year. Steve Schmidly,
the vice-president in charge
of program planning, has done
an excellent job of tapping the
local talent supply at South
Plains.
At one meeting D arrel Pigg, ■
a freshman from Levelland,
played his guitar and sang sev-
eral songs made famous by
such artists as Roger Miller
and Glen Campbell* However,
Darrel lent his own personal
touch to “Little Green Apples”,
