Kane) Organization: Reed College, Portland, Oregon Lines: 34 Keywords: Brother Jed's Wife at Reed Greetings All: Today Brother Jim Weber of the Campus Ministry U.S.A. was on the campus of Reed College with an entourage consisting of: Brother Eldon: an apprentice to this group of "radical Christians". Sister Cindy: the wife of the infamous Jed Smock "Brother Jed". She entertained the crowd with her personal testimony of salvation from "disco fanatacism". Sister Pat: the true preacher of the group; exhorted the crowd to give up its life of sin; and: Brother Jim Weber(sp): the ringleader, wore a large sandwich board with a list of unacceptable social group, including: "queers, lesbians, Mormons, drunkards, potheads, abortionists, pornographers and astrologers". In my opinion, this group came to the wrong college to pick up converts. For over two and a half hours, the crowd of better than 75 'Reedies' argued, heckled and taunted these fearless, self-proclaimed upholders of our morality. Anyway, just thought you might be interested. Where is Brother Jed himself? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | David B.
