(Page 3)

A decade from now, when we look back through the tunnel of time to the school year of 1976-77, it 
may be that our memories will see only the swirl of motion and change--a year of new directions, not 
only for the outside world of politics and economics but also for the private world of NMSU.

The nation, breathing a sigh of relief after a year of bicentennial fervor, became involved in 
another sort of nation-wide interest: the '76 elections. The smiling face of Jimmy Carter, only two 
years before an unknown politician and suddenly the new President, proclaimed that the eight years of 
Republican control had ended and the tide had turned back to the Democrats.
 

(Page 4)

This Democratic wave of politics extended itself into Missouri, where the incumbant Republican governor, 
Kit Bond, was upset by Joseph Teasdale. Kirksville, too, was not without its political surprises as 
newcomer Harry Hill defeated Gale Novinger for state representative.

And where was NMSU admidst the whirl of national change? It was undergoing its own evolution, a painstaking, 
step-by-step growth into a stronger and more modernized university.

The campus grounds began to sprout new buildings. Suddenly construction workers were finished with the 
natatorium and began to concentrate their forces on the huge skeletal hulk rising next to Baldwin Hall--an 
uncompromising ediface soon to take the shape and function of an administration building.

The Activities Fair has many diverse exhibitions, such as demonstrations of techniques in karate by Mike 
Harris. (ABOVE) Leonard Bruce and Kathy Eckler participated in the Activities Fair. (RIGHT) Pickler Memorial 
Library gives students a quiet and comfortable place to study.

House, seemingly guarded by a watchdog, houses art classes and the Index office.

The Student Union became the host of a landscaped mall and surging fountain which mistily welcomed 
students back to school in the fall. New parking lots, decorated with red and green and blue signs, 
charted previously unused grounds in order to guide drivers to the different directions each might 
take.

Renovations in Baldwin Hall added an improved and more attractive look to the music rooms on 
second floor.
 

(Page 6)

The residence halls--newly furnished or brightly painted--have come a long way from the stark, 
prison-like appearance of former years.

Homecoming festivities of '76 were celebrated as always, but with a few changes from the pattern 
formed by previous years. A newly-formed Residence Hall Association watched its independent candidate 
assume the crown of Homecoming Queen, a privilege in the past usually won by Greeks. People had 
"bumped" black and blue and were now disciples of the disco dancing mania.

Girls, wore longer skirts and shorter hair.

(Page 9)

And finally, our campus was not totally isolated from the effects of a changing nation. It, too, 
collectively groaned at the rising price of coffee; its students watched aghast at laundromat washers
that gobbled 50 cents to clean clothes, and dryers that threw back laundry only half dry after five 
minutes.

We have taken new directions this year and have broken patterns of the past through both good and 
bad changes. And as we look to the future, we may change our directions, or our directions may change 
us.

But whatever happens, we will remain in a state of perpetual change--as nothing is more permanent 
than change.

Signs of the times direct students in a variety of ways. (ABOVE LEFT) Joseph Baldwin presides over

Activities

Campus-sponsored activities proved to be successful in offering students a break from the 
monotony of studying. Pzazz Too, Northeast's version of American Bandstand, helped boost the disco 
craze. With the expansion of the mini-concerts, a spell-binding demonstration by a hypnotist was 
given. Also at Homecoming a special Alumni Fair was held for two days.

7th Annual FOLK SHOW

The seventh annual folk show sponsored by Sigma Tau Gamma social fraternity was held in April 
with eleven acts comprising the entertainment.

Don Wroblewski, master of ceremonies said, "The show ran very smoothly and there were no major 
problems. The audience responded well to the acts."

The entertainment began with music performed by the House Band. Rodger Zucchi followed with his 
"Tomato Vendetta," an original work dedicated to all those who worked at Hy-Vee. Next, Jan Province 
sang two popular hits before she was called back to do "You're No Good."

Melanie McClain sang two solo's, "I'm Not Lisa" and "Last Time I Saw Him," before she was joined 
by Joe Olivastro to sing "Feelings."

Janie Gray and the Catalines, Debbie Wettereau, Denise Schrieffer and Julie Foster, performed a 
skit with the musical number "Breaking Up is Hard to Do."

Michele Gelfman in her second performance sang "At Seventeen" and the "Monster Mash" which
provided audience participation.

Dave Haverfield, also a veteran of the Sig Tau Folk Show, sang a song that he wrote for his Basic 
Approach to the Arts class entitled "Marijuana."

Gary Doss, Wally Harper and Paula Switzer performed a variety of popular songs.

Steve and Stan Johnston, both seven-year veterans of the folk show, concluded with a musical 
arrangement of '60 nostalgia which continued their tradition of standing ovation performances.

Greeks Get Into It

With school ending early this year and the many formals, Greek Week was reduced to three days 
instead of the usual week.

The activities started with the traditional car parade on Wednesday which toured the campus. King 
and queen candidates were featured along with a "marching band" which actually rode in the back of a 
truck.

The following night everyone got together to display their musical talents at the annual Greek 
Sing. During the preceding weeks, melodies could be heard coming from the different Greek 
fraternities and sororities. The winners of the contest were Delta Zeta and Tau Kappa Epsilon.

After the sing the coronation of the king and queen was held. Laura Skubal, member of Delta Zeta, 
was crowned queen while Bob Barnes of Sigma Tau Gamma was crowned king.

The activities were concluded on Saturday with the annual Greek Bash. Greeks and their dates 
danced to the music of Plainview at the Reiger Armory.

Amused spectators watch as Sigma Sigma Sigma is dragged thru the mud.

Participation

The Student Participation Party (SSP) dominated the Student Senate elections by winning 27 of 31 
positions. Voter apathy was a concern as less than 700 people voted, which was half the number that 
had voted in the preceding election.

Those elected were Don Wolf, president; Jeff Burns, Vice-president; Becky Powell, secretary; Carol 
Meine, treasurer; and Carol Baum, council member-at-large. In addition to the executive council, 
people were elected to represent their respective classes.
 

(Page 17)

On Top

The SSP's platform included continued and improved campus activities, improvement of athletic 
facilities, a system or 24-hour open dorm lounges, possible abolishment of the color-coded sticker 
system on campus and carpeting for the library. Also the Student Senate would continue to act upon 
complaints and provide activities for the students as it has in the past.

Minutes before, this seemingly quite room was filled with Student Senate members at their regular 
Sunday night meeting.

Something Special

The purpose of the Special Olympics is to give mentally retarded children a chance to participate 
in physical education-type activities. Usually the mentally retarded child is excluded from physical 
education activities," Judy Sextro, co-director for the Special Olympics, said.

The Special Olympics was termed a tremendous success as 125 special education students 
participated in various track and field events in the Pershing Arena during March. Fifteen campus 
organizations aided the Student Council For Exceptional Children in sponsoring the Olympics. The 
children competed in six main events plus special activities which included the favorite--bowling in 
the Student Union. Ribbons were presented to the top four finishers in each event.

Participants and volunteers sit back and enjoy the remaining events. (RIGHT) Clowns are present to

Springtime Diversions

Gabe Kaplan, who is more commonly known as Kotter, received a standing ovation after his comedian 
performance sponsored by Phi Delta Kappa in March. His ideas on legalization of marijuana, alcoholism 
and family problems were expressed along with his impersonation of Ed Sullivan. Adding to the 
comedian's performance were Rocky Reitmeyer and his impersonations of Walter Brennan and John Wayne 
plus the Hannibal High School Band under the direction of Mr. Terry Boone.

Up With People

Also appearing in March was "Up with People," a musicial group composed of enthusiastic young 
people of varied backgrounds, ages and races. The program included laughing, singing, dancing and 
audience participation. The songs performed established an interaction between the audience and the 
performers. Their musical entertainment brought everyone to their feet in a well-deserved standing 
ovation.

An enthusiastic cast fills the gymnasium with song and dance.

A Little Razzle Dazzle

The fabled Harlem Globetrotters came to Pershing Arena and dazzled their opponents with their 
comical basketball antics. Using magical ballhandling, the world traveling team entertained an 
enthusiastic crowd.

The Globetrotters, organized 50 years ago by Abe Saperstein, have since toured the United States 
as well as 94 countries, entertaining over 80 million people.

Featured were Marques Haynes and short Curly Near who provided comical routines. These routines 
included mockery of sports such as football and baseball. Also zany acrobatics and gymnastics were 
used to enliven the people who already were on their feet.

In one of the Globetrotters' more serious moments, Theodis Lee illustrates some of his talent.

A Time To Move On

State Budget Director Mark L. Edelman called for "hard choices and self-sacrifice" in political 
leadership in the annual spring commencement address on April 30.

He urged the 800 graduates to become involved in the political system by becoming involved on the 
local and state levels.

"All too often, I have seen people escape hard questions because the questioner didn't know his 
subject. We must care enough to educate ourselves."

The graduation procession began at Baldwin Hall and proceeded to the statue of Joseph Baldwin, 
where the traditional wreath was placed at the foot of the statue. The procession then proceeded to 
Stokes Stadium.

The baccalaureate degrees were presented en masse with the master degrees being presented 
individually. Emeritus status was conferred on two retiring faculty members.

Good Ole Summertime

Kenneth Stilwell finds a different and cooler means of transportation. (ABOVE) Concerts in front 
of Kirk Memorial attract many students of different ages. (LEFT) One of many high school students who 
participated in the Summer Youth Band Camp prepares to go home for the day.

A watermelon feast, a homemade ice cream social, concerts, movies and sporting events were just a 
few of the activities held for over 2,500 students who attended the summer sessions.

Director of Admissions/Registrar Kent Farnsworth repotted an increase in summer enrollment. He 
attributed the increase to more students wishing to accelerate in degree programs, work on 
certification and a pick up in interest courses that couldn't be worked into the regular semester 
plans.

Most of the events were planned by a summer activities committee composed of faculty and 
administrators. THE SUMMER TIMES, published twice weekly, was the newspaper sponsored by the 
committee. It included information about summer school and town activities.

"The committee tried to sponsor at least one activity a week. We wanted students to have a choice 
of activities they could attend. Before it seemed the only way to take a break from studies was to 
visit the lake," Vonnie Nichols, director of student activities, said.

Free food was the main attraction at the watermelon feast, the ice cream social and Centennial 
picnics. According to Vonnie Nichols, "The purpose of these activities was to allow students and 
faculty to become better acquainted on an informal basis."

Some other committee-sponsored activities were a co-ed volleyball league and the movie "Chinatown" 
which drew an exceptionally large crowd.

"A Summer Something" sponsored by the Baptist Student Union and Wesley House was also popular with 
students. The Tuesday night activities included discussion, fellowship, worship, films and 
hamburgers.

Students also found it relaxing to sit on the lawn in front of Baldwin Hall and enjoy the music 
provided by the Summer Youth Band Camps.

Besides the new activities planned, students were also (Cont.)

Really Taking It Easy

introduced to several other changes.

In addition to the regular five-week sessions, there was also a five-week interim session offered. 
The enrollment for the interim session was 466 students. All students were housed in Centennial Hall 
as other halls were under renovation.

"There was a lot to do up here this summer. I was glad to see changes which would benefit the 
students. I hope these activities will continue," said Junior Ruthann Schellerup.

It's Just The Beginning...

Students get acquainted with freshmen while listening to the music of Survival. (ABOVE) Long lines 
are something all freshmen will learn to tolerate.

Starting college is like entering a whole new world. Surroundings are unfamiliar, people are 
unfamiliar and the freshman's sense of direction often escapes him. But the 1976 Freshmen Orientation 
attempted to remedy these problems.

Freshmen Orientation was held August 23 in Baldwin Hall Auditorium with Dean Terry B. Smith 
presiding as master of ceremonies.

Smith was followed by Paula Switzer, Centennial residence director, who spoke on the various 
aspects of on-campus living.

Representatives of campus organizations presenting talks were Don Wolf, Student Senate president; 
Deanna Apperson, Student Activities Board president; John Lindner, Interfraternity Council president, 
and Carol Baum, Panhellenic president.

Each speaker stressed the importance of getting involved in activities and making the most of 
college life.

Following these presentations, Darrell W. Krueger, dean of instruction, introduced the division 
heads and administrative members.

Welcoming remarks were then given by President Charles McClain.

With the formalities of orientation behind them, freshmen "romped, stomped and chomped" at the 
annual Red Barn Park picnic to the music of Survival.

A street dance held at the Student Union mall closed the day's activities; unfamiliar faces and 
places had now become home.

More than 800 people attended the Activities Fair sponsored by Cardinal Key and Student Activities 
Board in September.

With the theme "Make Your Year Weigh Out," over sixty organizations set up booths or displays 
which represented their club's activities in the Georgian Room. This was their attempt to interest 
fellow students in joining their organizations. The booths and displays were judged on the basis of 
the attractiveness and student participation by Vonnie Nichols, student activities director; Mary Ann 
Templeton, Activities Fair chairman; and Dr. Hugh Moore, English professor. A ten dollar first place 
gift certificate was awarded to the members of the Panther Drill Team. Nine other organizations 
received certificates of recognition.

Door prizes and copies of the 1975 Echo were distributed throughout the evening.

A Tae-Kwan-Do demonstration and a vocal performance by Sigma Alpha Iota were part of the 
entertainment.

The Rushees Are Coming

There's nothing slow about rush as 134 women found out in September. For these women, rushing a 
sorority included going to informal rush parties given by the sororities, at least three nights out 
of the week for two weeks. Here the rushees had the chance to meet the women in the sororities and 
vice versa. Hopefully a rushee found out what sorority life was all about or at least formed a 
general idea.

After informal rush, rushees then received formal rush party invitations. Of these, they had to 
choose three parties that they would like to attend. The purpose of these formal parties was to get 
to know better the girls in each sorority and to clarify any questions on what sorority life involved.
Also, the women in the sororities could tell the rushees what being in a sorority really meant to 
them. By this time rushees were much closer to the women in the sorority and felt they had made new 
friends. The formal parties lasted for three days. Then the final procedure of rush came: the 
preference parties. Here the sororities again issued invitations in the form of bids to the rushees 
they preferred in their sorority. A rushee attended three preferential parties at the most, or maybe 
just one or two, depending on how many invitations she received. After these parties were over, there 
was a silence period where sorority women and rushees could not talk to one another. During this 
period, a rushee signed preferential party sheets, indicating what sorority she would like to pledge.
In the meantime, sororities were putting down their preference of rushees they would like for members.
Yell-in at Kirk Memorial took place the same evening. Here the pledge announced her choice of 
sorority and ran down the steps where she was greeted by her new sisters.

Although going through rush was time consuming, the opportunity to meet many new people existed. 
Of the 134 women who went out for rush, only 61 pledged. Those who pledged began the new experience 
of Greek sisterhood.

RED BARN ARTS & CRAFTS FAIR

'A Little Bit Of Everything'

A golden haze set over Red Barn Park as the last few visitors to the Arts and Craft Fair began 
leaving after seeing displays ranging from weaving and macrame to paintings. Sixty-nine artists 
displayed their talents to over 5000 visitors. The festival was sponsored by the Red Barn Community 
Arts League and the Missouri State Council on the Arts during October.

Many varieties of art were displayed as artists and craftsmen came from as far west as Colorado 
Springs, Colorado and as far north as Des Moines, Iowa.

Art Instructor Helen Babbitt received the Best of Show Purchase Award of $200 for her 
demonstration display in weaving. Terry Baker, an area artist, was the recipient of the two-
dimensional art award. Steve Hammes and Steve Ayers, both students, received awards for 
excellence.

A special feature of the festival was an antique auction sponsored by the Alpha Psi Omega Honorary 
Fraternity. Chris McGinn, a member of Alpha Psi Omega fraternity, explained that "the antiques 
included things donated by the people of Kirksville. The auctioneer also donated his time, so 
everything was given to the fraternity for the auction." Other features included a mini-performance 
by the Travellers Theatre Youth, Blue Grass Younguns', Sally Mountain Singers' Blue Grass Show, the 
Cedar Family Blue Grass Show and the Sweet Adelines.

Craftsmen demonstrate as well as exhibit their wares. (BELOW) Various exhibits were displayed

Sponsoring at least one movie a month, the Student Activities Board showed "The Longest Yard" which
drew over 500 people. They also sponsored a musical night featuring "Hello Dolly" and "Oliver," and a
chiller night including "Young Frankenstein," "West World," "Devil's Reign," "The Brides of Dracula"
and "Stepford Wives."

The residence halls sponsored "The Learning Tree" and "The Watermelon Man" as part of Sisterhood 
Week. They also showed "The Last Detail" and "The Other Side of the Mountain."

"Funny Lady," "For Pete's Sake" and "The Pink Panther" provided many hours of humor. However, not
all movies were watched totally for enjoyment. Some were required to be seen. These included "The
Godfather," "The Devil" and "The Loved Ones," sponsored by the Psychology Club.

Students found that if they had nothing to do they could always watch for the coming 
attraction.

It Rained!

More students became involved in this year's activities than in the past years. It was this 
pulling together in a unified drive that helped this year's homecoming to be a success," Vonnie 
Nichols, director of student activities, said.

Student participation began on Monday as homecoming activities started with the individual queen 
candidates' parades. The suspense of the entire week climaxed on Thursday as junior English major 
Brenda Whitebread, sponsored by the Residence Hall Association, was crowned queen. Her attendants 
were Linda Henderson and Joni Winn. The other five candidates were Diane Bourisaw, Brenda Jenkins, 
Chris Juergens, Carol Meine and Lesa Worden. Over 2,000 students voted in the queen election.

craze. (ABOVE) The 1976 Homecoming Queen Brenda Whitebread and last year's queen, Nancy Schumann, are

HOMECOMING (cont.)

On Friday the scheduled pep rally was cancelled due to rain. It was rescheduled for Parents' Day 
where the first-place spirit trophy was awarded to Missouri Hall. Also on Friday night the Student 
Activities Board's Bulldog Boogie was held in Kirk Gym with 1,000 students attending.

The alumni were entertained by a banquet on Friday night and an Alumni Fair. Throughout the 
weekend the fair featured the past and present activities of various campus organizations.

The rain continued through Saturday dampening the homecoming parade, as the original 140 entries, 
led by Grand Marshal Eli Mittler, dropped to lOO. Pre-game activities followed as Scott Patterson and

Following the game on Saturday almost 3,000 people flocked to the three-hour long Harry Chapin 
concert in Pershing Arena. The audience clapped and sang along with some of Chapin's more famous 
tunes, "WOLD" and "Cat's in the Cradle." Chapin achieved audience participation in "Thirty Thousand 
Pounds of Bananas" and "I Wanna Learn a Love Song." The Chapin concert officially ended the 
homecoming activities.

"The display of enthusiasm and widespread student involvement proves that the homecoming spirit 
is still definitely alive, " Vonnie Nichols concluded.

The Beat Goes On

A sudden hush fell over Pershing Arena as the thousands of concert-goers who had filtrated its 
doors, waited for Head East and Styx to appear.

Suddenly, lights flashed on the stage and the audience extended an enthusiastic applause for the 
members of Head East.

The group from St. Louis was the crowd's favorite for the night. Many students felt they had more 
audience appeal because their music and stage presence related to the crowd. "A Ticket Back to 
Georgia," "Fly By Night Lady" and "Jeff Town Creek" were some of the audience's favorites. Their 
biggest hit "Never Had Any Reason" brought the crowd to its feet.

entertaining to see as to hear. They performed both old and new songs. Three crowd pleasers were 
"Lauralie," "City of Gold" and "Lady." Using the special effects of a revolving crystal ball, the 
song "Light Up" captivated many listeners.

The concert sponsored by the Student Senate proved to be successful as attendance was high and 
the crowd handled the rock concert without any major problems.

Dance To The Music

Variety in music and dance brought out the versatility of the Modern Dance Concert in November, 
presented in Baldwin Hall by the Physical Education Department.

Under the direction of Regina Lindhorst, instructor of dance, 33 students presented a chronological 
sketch of jazz.

Ballet, modern dance and jazz routines were set to folk tunes evolved from different regions in 
the United States. The free concert featured the seriousness of black work songs, the gaiety of the 
ragtime follies and the simplicity of the western ballads.

The jazz and country concert was presented in celebration of the national Bicentennial and was 
dedicated to the variety of people who came from the four corners of the world bringing with them 
those qualities that make a new kind of man--an American.

The Milwaukee Ballet, part of the Lyceum Series, performed Bach's "Partita;' "Sonata a Tre" by 
Albinoni; "Trio" by Ibert; and Tchaikovsky's "Nutcracker Suite, Act II" in December at Baldwin Hall. 
They are acclaimed as one of America's finest and most versatile dance troupes.

During their three day stay, the troupe provided a variety of programs for interested individuals. 
They held a performance for school children and provided an informal discussion with Jean Paul 
Comelin, the artistic director of the company.

Comelin, a native Frenchman who has been engaged with the Paris Opera Ballet Company and the 
London Festival Ballet, also held a master class and a costume and design seminar.

Several University music students and faculty became closely involved with the company's 
performance as they comprised the orchestra which had rehearsals daily with the dancers.

The performance was well attended with standing room only and provided students with a classical 
aspect of their culture.

Blow Your Horn

The musicians and vocalists at Northeast completed their embryonic stage of development this past 
year by continuing to grow into the progressive program of talent it is today.

The jazz bands and the NEMO Singers spent the year entertaining throughout the area and sponsoring 
various events.

Phi Mu Alpha sponsored the Jazz Festival, Feb. 26, obtaining Eddie Daniels as the featured 
soloist. The festival was attended by 48 junior and senior high school bands who competed for 
trophies in six classes.

Each school classification had a first, second and third prize winner, along with winners in the 
combo competition.

Highlighting the festival was Daniels' performance as guest soloist at the evening concert which 
concluded the day's events. Daniels is currently a studio musician and formerly appeared with the 
Dick Cavett show. He is a graduate in Music Performance from the Eastman School of Music in Rochester,
N.Y.

He graced the Baldwin Auditorium crowd when he performed three-fold--appearing with each of the 
Northeast jazz bands.

The three jazz bands are the Stage Band, the Jazz Lab Band and the first ranked Jazz Ensemble 
headed by Dr. Roger Cody. Graduate assistants Tom Palmatier and Kevin Laird direct the other two 
bands, respectively.

The Midwest Trumpet Guild played host to trumpeters Cat Anderson and Allen Dean during its 
January 29 trumpet workshop. The workshop featured various clinics throughout the day, and a 
concert.

Dean, member of the New York Brass Quintet, taught a morning workshop on the Cornetto Family and 
gave a recital following the clinic. Dean previously instructed classes at various eastern colleges 
and universities.

Featured soloist at the evening concert was Cat Anderson, formerly of the Duke Ellington band. 
The "Cat" added the university to his list of command performances which included ones for Queen 
Elizabeth, King Hussien and Presidents John Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson.

Those Noted Sounds

The number one jazz band, the Jazz Ensemble, performed various times throughout the year. In 
October, they presented a concert in Baldwin Auditorium for students. Also performing were the Lab 
Jazz Band and the Stage Band. In January, the ensemble traveled to Jefferson City for the Missouri 
Music Educator's Association convention, where they performed with Larry Skinner, soloist for the 
famed Navy Band.

"And now for your entertainment, the voices of the fabulous NEMO Singers under the direction of 
Mr. Clay Dawson!"

Under an introduction similar to this, the NEMO Singers performed two Christmas Candlelight 
Concerts. For the first time in several years, the concerts were held in Baldwin Auditorium. A Sunday 
afternoon debut was primarily for community enjoyment, while a Tuesday evening concert provided an 
exclusive opportunity for students to attend the show.

One participant commented that more traditional songs seemed to be crowd pleasers this year. She 
added that a larger crowd attended the concerts, also.

A March tour of Missouri and Kansas highlighted the spring semester for the NEMO's. The peak of 
the five-day concert spree was performing at the Music Educator's convention. Following the tour 
was the group's annual spring concert which culminated the year's activities.

The St. Louis Symphony gave their annual performance in the fall. As usual, the symphony was 
tremendous according to the large crowd which attended.

All In The Family

With clean rooms, smiling faces and maybe an occasional tear, students welcomed their families and 
friends to campus for the annual Parents' Day festivities.

The day's activities began with a 9:30 a.m. registration in the Quiet Lounge of the SUB. A general 
assembly followed at 10:30 a.m. in Baldwin Hall as President Charles McClain welcomed everyone to 
campus. Dr. Terry Smith, dean of students, presided as master of ceremonies. Dr. Darrel Krueger, dean 
of instruction, spoke on the University's academic programs and Don Wolf, president of Student 
Senate, spoke about student life. Following the assembly, a buffet luncheon was served in the 
Georgian, Spanish and Activities rooms in the SUB.

No Laughing Matter

The University Players brought the "Philanthropist," by Hampton, to the stage this year in three 
well-produced performances. The play was an inversion of Moliene's classic comedy of manners, "Le 
Misanthrope." The performances were very enjoyable as actors Timothy Loftus, Scott Smith and Steve 
Kossman gave fine characterizations to their roles.

Loftus, who played Philip, developed the role well, and Smith, who portrayed Donald, had an 
effective believable accent. Kossman was unforgettable as the author, Mr. Braham.

Another attribute to the performance was the acting of Gail Gerdes as Celia. Her portrayal was 
solid and she had excellent control over her character. Gerdes seemed to have a well developed stage 
presence.

The set was beautiful and seemed quite workable.

The play, directed by Dr. James Severns, assumed any problems inherent in this type of production 
and the performances went over quite well.

Godspell

Unconventional, lively and moving were some of the expressions used to describe Godspell which was 
presented during October in Baldwin Hall.

This folk-rock spiritual, written by John-Michael with lyrics by Stephen Schwartz, was based on 
the Gospel according to St. Matthew.

It was a young and relatively inexperienced cast that director Al Srnka had assembled but the cast 
performed with expertise. John the Baptist, played by Scott Smith, glued the emotions of Godspell 
together. He proved himself as a good actor and entertainer.

A stunning performance given by Emmett Vaughn provided some of the most penetrating moments of 
the show.

Also accredited with a solid performance was Mark Ridgway, a freshman, who tackled a difficult 
task portraying the lead role of Jesus.

The supporting chorus of disciples was played by Richard Daut, Bonnie McLaughlin, Chris McGinn, 
Judy Sextro, Elaine Hannah, Lori Larson, Claudia Beatty and Dan Dalpini.

Bruce C. Brockman, technical director, designed and constructed the stage that was well adapted to
the purpose of bringing the actors and the messages together.

Godspell, not the conventional three-act play, had its special intermission allowing the audience 
to drink "wine" with the cast. Overall, those who saw the play sat back, smiled, chuckled, clapped 
and occasionally shed a silent tear.

(Above) Emmett Vaughn pleads to Chris McGinn to forget his debts. The cast constantly interchanged

Oh, What A Beautiful Evening

by Patty White

"Oklahoma" was performed by the Young Americans Jan. 19, as a part of the Lyceum series. The group
was from the same booking agency as "1776."

The Young Americans, formed in 1962, is comprised of men and women between the ages of 15 and 20. 
They have toured Australia, Europe, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, Hong Kong and the Philippines and have 
performed on the Andy Williams Show, Bing Crosby Special, Ed Sullivan Show and the Academy Awards 
program.

Rodgers and Hammerstein's "Oklahoma" was a wild west musical which included romance, comedy, song 
and dance. The production captured the audience's attention from beginning to end.

The comical and lighthearted plot was accented by the music. Highlights included: the humorous, 
"Kansas City" and "Pore Jud," the romantic "People Will Say We're In Love" and the well known theme, 
"Oklahoma."

Choreographies of the play were professionally executed and dynamic. This was beautifully 
demonstrated in "Dream Sequence." Most students who saw the production wished it wasn't a single 
performance; those who were unable to attend wished they had. If audience reaction was an accurate 
indication of how good or bad the play was, it was an excellent production.

The Opera

by Patty White

Bert Brecht's "The Three Penny Opera," which ran Feb. 16-18, was a joint effort of the University 
Players and the music department of the university.

Set in London at the time of Queen Victoria, this satirical comedy tells the story of gang leader 
Macheath -- better known as Mack-the-knife.

The cast included Dennis Loy as Macheath, Mary Ann Orf as Polly, Ron Feeney as Peachum, Cheryl 
Walker as Mrs. Peachum, Sharon O'Donnell as Jenny, Tim Loftus as Tiger Brown, Rebecca Thomas as Lucy, 
plus many others, all of whom gave excellent performances.

"Three Penny" provided excellent entertainment for those who viewed it.

By choosing this style of production, director Dr. James Severns provided a learning experience 
for many.

All in all, cast performance and musical themes blended well to make the production a very 
enjoyable experience.

Era of Reconstruction

by Brenda Jenkins

The campus experienced their own "Era of Reconstruction" with new parking lots, a new 
administration/humanities building and residence hall renovations.

One of the more thankful renovations was the parking lot located east of Pershing Building. The 
Reed Construction Company resurfaced, expanded, guttered and curbed the lot previously recognized as 
a combination of grass, mud, rocks and water. Total cost of the lot was $219,715.

Another new parking lot which facilitated slightly over 60 student and faculty cars was 
constructed at the northwest corner of Franklin and Normal next to Safety and Security. At a cost of 
$65,000, the project was halted Dec. 1 because of bad weather.

Baldwin Hall renovations which cost approximately $588,000 included electrical work, rebuilding 
the projection room, adding a stage extension, the remodeling of offices and classrooms and the 
construction of three new offices.

The renovations of the residence halls were of major importance to students. Furnishings alone 
in Dobson and Ryle cost $78,000.

Ryle women saw the recarpeting and refurnishing of their formal lounge and the phones moved to 
the back foyer entrance, which was enclosed by glass.

Drastic renovations occurred in Dobson where a total of $217,100 was spent. Dobson's north first 
floor corner was made into a recreation area, lounge and office. Its west corner became the location 
for ping pong tables, foosball and vending machines, while the east wing was made into a TV lounge. A 
women's restroom was also constructed.

Besides each floor being carpeted

and repainted, the other floors received games areas, lounges, study areas and cooking 
facilities.

Missouri Hall experienced some difficulty in getting its renovations completed according to 
schedule, but the additional facilities included redecorating and refurnishing the upper four 
floors' lounges, with two televisions per floor. On each floor one lounge was designated primarily 
for study and the other lounge for games.

Reconstruction was everywhere. The Child Development Center located north of Centennial Hall 
received $25,000 worth of front and back porch repairs.

Another $25,000 improvement was in the Bulldogs' Kennel. Bath and shower facilities were redone 
and wind screens were installed to insure more privacy in the locker room.

Because of the lack of funds, the walk way is left uncovered. (ABOVE) Baldwin Hall renovations 
resulted in cluttered and inconvenient halls.


(Page 63)

Located at the southeast corner of the campus is the new classroom/administration structure 
which was built to the tune of $3.2 million. The building was built to house the Language and 
Literature Division, the Social Science Division and all administrative offices.

The building's furnishing costs totalled $403,310. According to the plan, the building would be 
ready for occupancy sometime in March.

The complaints of construction noises and inconveniences during the "Era of Reconstruction" on 
campus soon turned to an indestructable pride when the improvements were completed.

The new natatorium adds one more dimension to campus life. (ABOVE) The administration building

Whenever people get together and work for a common cause, there's no limit to what they can do. 
This was demonstrated in various fund-raising projects during the year.

Before Christmas, University students of Faith Lutheran Church got into the spirit of things by 
selling Christmas cards, calendars and note paper. Profit's went to UNICEF to help underdeveloped 
countries train teachers, medical workers and provide the knowledge and equipment to make wells, grow 
food and supply hospitals.

This service project has been a tradition of the Lutheran Church for the past six years.

Circle K and the United Campus Ministries sponsored a CROP fast and hunger awareness project. 
Funds received through pledges went to overseas projects.

The Adair County United Fund Drive collected 358 more dollars than their $88,000 goal. A good 
portion of this was collected by students. The campaign on campus collected over 82% of its $10,000 
goal.

Many students collected door-to-door to assist in reaching the residential areas.

The money went to Kirksville service agencies including Sojourner's Public Library, day care 
centers, Y.M.C.A., American Red Cross and the Girl and Boy Scouts.

Because of student participation the UNICEF drive proved very successful. (ABOVE) Sore feet and

Finals ... A Fable ...

by Deanna Apperson

Final's Week--

The end of the beginning or the beginning of the end?

No matter how long a semester may seem or how difficult classes are, the sixteen weeks of booking 
it do come to an end. And what comes at the end of a semester? FINALS.

Trying to explain just what finals are or what living through final's week is like depends on 
the student.

Generally, though, there are two philosophies of thought concerning final's week.

To the student who has studied throughout the semester and worked steadily, preparing his lessons 
as they are due, reading the necessary books as they are assigned, and finishing all his term papers 
a week early, final's week is just the end of the beginning. He can sit back and take it easy for a 
week with the attitude that "If I don't know it by now I never will."

As far as this student is concerned finals means he is finished; the semester is completed. 
Actually, to him, final's week is like the denouement of a play. The climactic scene has passed and 
he's home free.

Final's week is the mere crowning of the semester to the student who follows this line of thought. 
For the student, final's week is the culmination of a successful semester.

On the other hand, there is the student for whom finals are only the beginning of the semester. 
For the student who has procrastinated through all his classes, faithfully turning in all assignments
late, neglecting to buy the necessary books until halfway through the course, and writing his term 
paper out of the encyclopedia the night after it is due, final's week is just the beginning of the 
end.

To this student, final's week is not the end of the semester, although it may be the end of his 
academic career. While for the other type of student, final's week

Studious Student
Studious Student Night Before Final

Good-time Student
Good-time Student Night Before Final
 

(Page 67)

is the epilogue or the last chapter, for this student, final's week is his last chance.

Final's week is 24-hour days and no nights, filled with black coffee and diet pills. For the 
procrastinating student final's week is the result, rather than the culmination of the semester; a 
week of speedreading, BS writing and praying for multiple guess tests.

For this type of student, final's week is the downfall rather than the crowning of a semester. 
Final's week is not a few days of review. It is 16 weeks crammed into four all-nighters.

While the first type of student would probably label final's week as the time to show what he has 
accomplished, the second type of student would use final's week to accomplish it.

At any rate, final's week is the destination reached by all who finish the semester. For some it 
is the grand finale. For others, it is doomsday. No matter which philosophy of thought practiced, 
however, for all students finals means "it's over" in one way or the other.

... The End ...

Poetry and fiction workshops with guest literary figures David Ray, James Tate, Gordon Weaver 
and James Welch were offered to all students and faculty at the Literary Festival in April 1976.

The festival, sponsored jointly by the National Endowment for the Arts and the University, 
provided students with insight into the various aspects of professional writing.

Highlights of the three-day affair included the four writers reading both fiction and poetry.

The guests came from varied backgrounds. David Ray, who is editor for "New Letters" at the 
University of Missouri, Kansas City, read from his most recent volume of poetry, "Gathering 
Firewood."

James Tate, a native from Kansas City, read some of his favorite poems which have been published 
in magazines such as "The New Yorker," "Atlantic Monthly" and "The Nation."

Gordon Weaver, who is head of English at Oklahoma State University, read some of his fiction. 
Several of his major works included "Count a Lonely Cadence" and "Give Him a Stone." Weaver won the 
first-annual Award for Fiction in 1973

James Welch also read from his works which included poems from his book, "Riding the Earthboy 
40" and a scene from his novel, "Winter in Blood," which was nominated for the National Book Award 
for fiction.

The workshops, presentations and panel discussions provided by the writers were well-attended 
and encouraged audience participation and response. After several sessions, students were able 
to confer with writers in a more informal setting.

The festival directors were Jim Barnes and Andrew Grossbardt.

"I Love Playing The Villain"

Tales of terror, villains and headings were combined to make a night with Vincent Price 
interesting as well as entertaining.

Price, who is commonly known to movie and theatre audiences, is equally known in the art world, 
literary world and uniquely to cookbook collectors.

Born in St. Louis, Price's initial ambition was to be a teacher and an art collector. His interest 
in art has been evident ever since he was twelve and bought a Rembrandt etching.

Villains and his life as a villain in the theatrical world were his featured topics.

In discussing the various types of villains, Price upheld the idea of the classic Aristotelian 
villain, "The villain should, by preference, be someone of high birth, of great intelligence, a 
handsome, dignified educated, charming and wonderful man."

To highlight his subject of villainess, the "typical Missouri boy" quoted several lines of 
Shakespeare's "Macbeth" and told the story of Lady Macbeth.

When asked if he ever has nightmares about the movies he has made, Price replied, "Only when 
they aren't good!"

The old Missouri boy returns for a second round of applause. (LEFT) Pausing for emphasis, Price 
kept the audience on the edge of their seats throughout the evening. (ABOVE) David Ray, guest

Small Time Entertainment

by Patty White

Night after night of studying and sitting around could be dull.

Students needed something to do and somewhere to go to break the routine. Because of mini-concerts,
the Purple Omen, Pzazz Too and party weekends, students were able to find that needed break.

Most of the mini-concerts featured folk-rock singers. Included were Tom Hyatt, Greg Brown, and the 
singer with the sound of Gordon Lightfoot, Dave Rudolf.

A performance without the use of elaborate stage settings, without props and lines spoken from the
stage, may sound a little boring, but not necessarily true. "A Little Louder, Please," a mime act 
performed by Bob Griffard and Kate Bishop, was everything but boring. The duo has performed with 
theatre groups, symphony orchestras and for President Ford at the White House.

A bit on the bizarre side was hypnotist Larry Garrett. After singling out ten people, Garrett 
successfully kept the audience of 200 in stitches. The participants did things they normally would 
never do in front of a large group of people.

The Purple Omen, a kind of amateur talent night, gave students a chance to perform instead of 
just watch. Everything from folk to classical music was performed. The Omen provided students with 
easy, relaxing music.

Party weekends were designed to give students something to do on weekends. It included all-night 
movies, reduced prices in the Union and Pzazz, a disco dance.

However, party weekends slowly began to fade out. It was replaced with Pzazz Too, held on week 
nights. Students reacted favorably to this change and the new Pzazz Too rapidly gained popularity.

The purpose of the carnival was to promote better relations between the University and the 
Kirksville community as it provided entertainment for both students and residents.

The businesses also provided the various prizes which were awarded.

'Tis The Season

by Brenda Whitebread

Christmas in October? For many students the spirit began then, as the first snow fell upon 
seasonal decorations, yule-tide window displays and early shoppers.

It appears that the rush to celebrate Christmas moves ahead each year. For students the time 
period between Thanksgiving and Christmas vacation is their busiest time of the year. Along with 
preparing for the joys of the season by buying gifts, sending cards and attending all sorts of 
parties, there are finals to be studied for and term papers to be completed.

But students aren't the only ones rushed; everyone seems to be. Commercially, the merchants want 
to and must sell their goods, while the public must and willingly buys. Time is too short.

Next year, will it be September? Possibly, but look at it positively! An early season can mean 
less rushing and more time to enjoy the beauty of the season.

After all, Christmas is only symbolic of something that should be celebrated every day of the 
year. The carols, the giving of gifts, the worship and the sharing should override the hustle and 
bustle. Christmas is not supposed to be a hassle but a time of peace.

So when the fat jolly man in the red suit ho ho ho's his way into the season . . . stop and 
think.

What does his "ho'ing" mean? Maybe he is laughing because he can achieve his Christmas season in 
24 hours or maybe, just maybe, he is overjoyed that Christmas is so important to all.

Confident and contented, this little lady snuggles up to Santa.

Every Pint Counts

"It was one of the best bloodmobiles we've had at the university," said Austin McBee, the 
executive director of the American Red Cross.

Approximately 760 people participated in the Bloodmobile sponsored by Cardinal Key and Blue Key, 
as a new record was established.

A total of 762 pints were donated as the bloodmobile exceeded its goal of 660 pints by 102 
pints.

Through their efforts, students, faculty and staff members would receive blood requirements free 
of charge for the coming year.

Trophies were awarded for giving the most blood.

Phi Kappa Theta fraternity won trophies for the highest percentage of members donating and the 
highest number of donors with 50. Sigma Tau Gamma placed second and Tau Kappa Epsilon third.

Centennial Hall won the trophy for the residence hall having the highest number of donors.

We've Been Through Changes

"We've Been Through Changes" was the theme of the Black Week festivities held Jan. 28-Feb. 6. 
Highlighting the week was the television production of "Roots," an award-winning show about the 
history of the black man in America.

The Student Activities Board co-sponsored the movie "Lady Sings the Blues" to officiate the 
beginning of Black Week.

Sponsored by the Association of Black Collegians (ABC), Black Week touched on the current fashion 
styles by presenting a Fashion Show Jan. 30, followed by a talent show on Jan. 31.

Dawana Ferguson headed a discussion of the role of black women on campus Tuesday.

During the week, three disco dances were held. Pzazz Too on Thursday featured ABC members Emmett 
Vaughn and Roland Garrison as disc Jockeys. The Ophelia Parrish gym was the location of the second 
disco Friday. Saturday a final dance was held in the SUB Activities Room.

Black Week ended on a peak note with a black ministerial group from St. Louis conducting Sunday

Sharing And Caring

Interwing parties, a scavenger hunt, movies and skits were sponsored by the People Relations Group 
of Ryle Hall during Sisterhood Week. The week's purpose was to promote a greater understanding and 
communication among groups on campus.

Two guest speakers appeared during the week. Margaret Fagen spoke on the importance of being 
assertive and Lee Hartsfield spoke about interpersonal and inter-racial relationships.

During the week various appreciation days were held. This included roommates, suitemates, R.A.'s, 
office workers and the maids.

A slumber party concluded the week's events where prizes were awarded. Laurie's Loonies (fourth

For their accomplishments in the 1975-1976 athletic year, the University was honored with the MIAA
All-Sports award.

Although no actual trophy is awarded, the All-Sports honor is one that the University and its
students can be proud of because it exemplifies a well-balanced athletic program.

The award is based on 10 intercollegiate sports. They are football, wrestling, cross country,
baseball, indoor and outdoor track, tennis, gold, basketball and swimming. Points are awarded to
the teams according to their final season record. A first place conference finish earns one point, a
second place finish two points, etc. The lowest point total accumulated, therefore, is the winning
school. The University accumulated a total of 30 1/2 points to win the honor.

Both the gold team and the indoor track squad placed first in their respective sports, leading the
Bulldogs to the 75-76 All-Sports title.

Since 1924-25 when the award was first recognized, the University has won the All-Sports honor 15
times.

The Bulldog tennis team got off to a slow start by losing its first meet 9-0 to Illinois State 
University at Bloomington. Following this defeat, the team traveled to Des Moines, Ia., where they 
lost again to Drake University, 7-2.

Upon returning to Kirksville the team hosted a double dual and defeated the University of Missouri 
at Rolla and Graceland College of Lamoni, Ia.

The Titan Invitational in Oshkosh, Wis. was the next tournament where the Bulldogs placed fourth, 
the highest the team had placed in that tournament since 1972.

In March the women's team opened up its 1976 campaign against William Woods College - Fulton 
winning 3-2. The following day it hosted the University of Missouri-Columbia, losing a 7-0 
decision.

The men's team resumed action on March 27 as it traveled to Oklahoma to participate in the Oral 
Roberts Invitational. The Bulldogs, who in previous years, had (cont.)

trouble in the tournament, again were successful in one of four tries defeating Ottawa University-
Kansas 6-1, but losing to the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Southwest Baptist-Bolivar and Southern 
Illinois University-Edwardsville.

Returning home for a double dual with Western Illinois University-Macomb and Central College-Pella,
Ia., the Bulldogs split, losing to Western Illinois but beating Central.

The Bulldogs returned to the road in April and dropped an 8-1 decision to Drake University at Des 
Moines, Ia., before participating in the Northern Iowa Invitational where they placed second, 
defeating Mankato, Augustana and South Dakota University.

In April the women's team first traveled to Maryville for a double dual with Northwest Missouri 
State

University and William Jewell College. They split the meet losing to William Jewell-Liberty 7-2, 
but beating Northwest 6-2.

The first match for the women before the state tournament was with Central Missouri State 
University-Warrensburg which they dropped 7-2.

In the state tournament the women finished ninth out of 11 teams, ending the year with a 2-3 
record.

The men's team, upon returning to Kirksville, hosted the 15th annual Northeast Missouri State 
University Invitational, where they finished sixth.

The Bulldogs next hosted Central Missouri State University, where they handed the Mules an 8-1 
loss.

Next a rematch between the Bulldogs and Southern Illinois State University resulted in defeat.

The tennis team evened its record at 9-9 by defeating Southeast Missouri State University-Cape 
Girardeau.

The Bulldogs' last match before the MIAA Championships was with Principia College-Elsah, Ill., 
where they lost 5-4.

They Come Out Swinging

Winning the coveted MIAA championship, the Bulldog golf team captured only one other victory, 
leaving them with a seasonal two and eight record.

In the opening match at Columbia College, the Bulldogs placed fifth with each man averaging 
approximately 88 strokes.

Coach Ben Pitney was still optimistic and remarked, "I'm not disappointed because the fellows
performed well on an extremely difficult course."

Tournaments at Lincoln University and Culver Stockton left the squad with two second-place 
finishes.

Returning home, the Bulldogs showed their appreciation by crushing Quincy College 609 strokes 
to 714.

With confidence from this victory, the golfers headed for Warrensburg and the Heart of America 
tournament where they placed third.

Once again at home, the linksmen placed second in their invitational match. The following 
tournaments at Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville and Western Illinois University at 
Macomb left the squad with fifth and sixth place finishes, respectively.

The highlight of the season finally came as Bulldogs Mike Minear, Bob Jibben, Greg Church, Mark 
Rimer and Dean Summa captured the MIAA crown for the first time since 1961.

This victory enabled them to participate in the NCAA Division II championship in Youngstown, 
Ohio, where they finished twentieth.

Around The Horn

The Bulldog baseball team going into the spring seemed to possess the needed ingredients to win 
the MIAA conference title. Sam Nugent was optimistic about the batting strength of the ball club, 
when he said, "We won't have the long-ball power of the 1975 club, but we'll have more speed and 
perhaps more consistency at the plate. A plus for our offense will be the fact that we have five 
switch hitters on the roster." Pitching was also important in Coach Nugent's forecast, "Our front-
line pitching should be better and our overall staff deeper this season."

The Bulldogs dropped their first two road games 10-1 and 10-5 as the pitching staff allowed 19 
hits and awarded 17 walks.

Finding the correct combination of hitting and pitching allowed the Bulldogs to defeat Lincoln 
University-Jefferson City in their first conference clash, as they swept a three-game series.

The next conference battle for the Bulldogs proved just as successful as Nugent's crew swept the 
next three games from the University of Missouri-Rolla. In winning the first game 5-0, Bruce Berenyi 
set a new school record of 21 strikeouts in a single game. The Bulldogs next defeated the University
of Wisconsin-OshKosh in two straight games setting two new school records in consecutive wins and 
scoreless innings pitched.

Even though the baseball team lost the next two games, Dan DeMartin broke a record with five 
triples in one season.

The results of the series with OshKosh left the Dogs with a 10-6 overall record and an 
unblemished 6-0 conference slate.(cont.)

Baseball (Cont.)

Quincy College, Ill. became a turning point as the Bulldogs captured only one of three games. 
They dropped a 9-6 decision to the host school and a 7-3 decision to the nationally ranked University
of Missouri-St. Louis. The final game was a 2-1 decision over Missouri Western-St. Joseph.

The Bulldogs' conference lead fell as they dropped three in a row to Southeast Missouri-Cape 
Girardeau. The only bright spot in the series was three home runs by the Bulldogs. In the opening 
game Rick Holmes had back to back home runs and DeMartin hit a solo blast in the second inning.

The trip to Warrensburg proved successful but short as Berenyi tossed a three-hitter on route to 
a 5-2 Bulldog victory.

The next conference contest against Northwest Missouri State-Maryville spelled disaster for the 
Bulldogs as the host team swept the three-game series. This locked Nugent's team out of a bid for 
first place in the conference.

The team's next encounter left it in third place as the team could only pick up two of three games 
from the Southwest Missouri State Bears-Springfield.

Overall, the Bulldog pitching staff ended the year with an average ERA of 4.22 with a team batting 
average of .246. The final month proved to be the downfall of Nugent's team as the Bulldogs dropped 
11 of their last 15 games.

The Bulldogs did not hit a lot of home runs last year, but when they did they came at clutch 
times.

A Diamond's Best Friend

The women's softball team opened the season with a 14-2 win over William Penn College of Oskaloosa, 
Iowa.

Quincy College in Illinois was ousted by the Bulldogs 17-1. Seventeen runs were the Bulldogs' 
biggest point total of the year.

Losing ways began as the University of Missouri - St. Louis defeated the Bulldogs 15-7.

Kirkwood then handed the Bulldogs their second straight loss, 7-0.

The slump continued as the Manchester Hawkettes won 15-7.

Northwest Missouri State -Maryville out-scored the Bulldogs, 6-3.

Unable to shake their slump, the women fell to the University of Missouri - Columbia, 15-5 
and 10-0.

Tarkio College in Missouri beat the Bulldogs 3-1 which was the Bulldogs' seventh straight loss
since the second game win over Quincy.

Avenging their previous loss to University of Missouri - St. Louis, the Bulldogs defeated the 
St. Louis school, 9-6.

The winning streak was short, however, as the University of Missouri - St. Louis came back to 
defeat the Bulldogs, 3-2. The team ended the year with a 3-8 mark.

On The Right Track

The men's outdoor track team opened up its season competing in the Texas Relays at Austin, Tx., 
finishing second in the two-mile relay. The team consisted of freshmen Ephraim Woods, Bruce Smith, 
Dan Futrell and senior Gary Evans.

While the men's team was in Austin, the women's track team opened their season at Iowa City, in a 
meet with the University of Iowa and University of Northern Iowa-Cedar Falls. The Bulldogs finished 
second.

On April 6 both the men's and women's teams traveled to Macomb, Ill. to participate in the Western 
Illinois University meet. Both teams lost, the men losing 97-57 and the women losing 62-61.

The men's team went on to compete in the Emporia State Relays-Emporia, Kan., on April 10. The 
Bulldog's mile-relay team, two-mile relay team, and the distance and spring medley teams finished 
first, while the 440-yard relay team finished second.

The women's team participated in two home meets, losing to Central Missouri State-Warrensburg 63-53 
in a triangular and Northwest Missouri State University-Maryville 94-31.

On April 12 the men took on Lincoln University-Jefferson City winning 76-65.

The Bulldogs next went to the Kansas Relays-Lawrence, where the spring medley-relay team finished
second and the mile-relay team finished fourth.

The Drake Relays-Des Moines, Ia., were next as they placed in the sprint medley relays.

'76 MIAA Co-Champs
 
Tied Up In


(Page 101)

Championship Knots

Winning the MIAA Conference championship was the goal in 1976 for Coach Ron Taylor and 
his forces.

The quest began against Eastern Illinois University at Stokes Stadium. Eastern Illinois' 
opening play of the game seemed to foreshadow the outcome as they rolled left for a 
76-yard touchdown run. The Bulldogs did not have a consistent team effort and went down 
in defeat, 42-10.

Kentucky State entered Stokes Stadium and again victimized the Bulldogs on a long 
touchdown run in the first minute of play.

Defensive problems continued as the Bulldogs lost 36-26.

"The game that wasn't" was game number three. The Bulldogs traveled to St. Joseph to 
play the Missouri Western Griffons. Park officials, deeming the public field unplayable 
because of rain, called off the game. The game was not replayed and did not figure into 
either team's final ledger.

Junior tailback Steve Powell rambled for 142 yards on 21 carries to lead the Bulldogs 
past the Evansville University Aces, 38-28 at Evansville, Indiana. The Dogs finally got 
a solid team effort and good defensive pursuit for their first win of the season.

The Bulldogs' first conference win of the season came against the Southwest Missouri 
State Bearcats-Springfield. Sophomore defensive tackle Mark Sobol had four quarterback 
sacks and was named MIAA defensive player of the week. This win gave the Dogs a 1-0 
conference record and left them 2-2 overall.

Game number six saw the Bulldogs combine a strong defense and a steady offense as they 
trounced the Lincoln University Blue Tigers 33-6 at Jefferson City. Northeast racked up 
373 total yards while only allowing 173 offensive yards for the Blue Tigers.

'Something To Prove'

Football (cont.)

The opponent for Homecoming 1976 was defending MIAA champion, Southeast Missouri State 
University. Unfortunately, Homecoming festivities and the game were hampered by a steady 
drizzle which left the playing field in poor condition. Having their patent offense shut 
down by the weather, the Dogs had to rely on a strong defense, which held the Indians on a
fourth and one situation from the five-yard line with less than four minutes on the clock.
Senior safety Bob Robinson blocked a 45-yard field goal attempt with eight seconds 
remaining to ensure a 3-3 tie.

Coming into the Central
 

(Page 103)

Missouri State game, the Bulldogs apparently took this conference foe too lightly, 
as they were kicked by the Mules 34-20 at Warrensburg. Fortunately, for the Bulldogs, 
Southeast was losing to Southwest on the same day, deadlocking both teams with a 2-1-1 
conference record and putting them in second place behind a 4-1 Northwest, who were the 
Dogs' next opponents.

The Bulldogs, realizing one more loss would mean an end to their championship hopes, 
crushed the Bearcats 42-10 at Stokes Stadium. Coach Ron Taylor said, "We had our backs 
against the wall and something to prove." The game

was a terrific team effort for the Bulldogs as they racked up 573 total yards. Senior 
fullback Tony Grosso and junior tailback Steve Powell rushed for 116 and 110 yards 
respectively. Sophomore quarterback Steve Rampy hit four touchdown passes in the 
contest.

The last game of the season was against the University of Missouri-Rolla and was in 
essence the championship game. Crushing the Miners 24-0, the win gave the Bulldogs a 
5-3-1 overall record and a 4-1-1 conference ledger. This ensured them the co-championship 
with Southeast.

Eat My Dust

The Cross country team suffered through a losing season in 1976. Coach Ed Schneider's thinclads 
opened the season against Augustana College at Rock Island, Ill.

Losing 19-40 the Bulldogs placed only two men in the top ten positions. Dave Harris finished number 
two with a five mile time of 25:10 and Rich Becker took seventh.

In the first and only home meet of the season, the Bulldogs were defeated by Southern Illinois at 
Carbondale, Westminister College at Fulton and William Jewel College at Liberty.

The Bulldogs' record fell to 0-5 as they dropped a dual meet to Northwest Missouri State of 
Maryville. Senior All-American Jack Lindsey captured second place with a time of 26:47 for the only 
high spot of the meet for the Bulldogs.

The Missouri Intercollegiate Meet in Columbia was not any better for the Bulldogs as they captured 
eighth place. The meet was won by Central Missouri State at Warrensburg.

Twelve teams competed in the Chicago Invitational at Loyola College. The Bulldogs finished sixth 
in a tough meet.

Traveling to Springfield, the runners competed in the Southwest Missouri State Invitational, where 
they placed twelfth in the fifteen team meet.

In the MIAA conference meet at Springfield the Bulldogs placed fifth to close out a disappointing 
season.

Injuries were a key factor preventing Coach Jerry Mayhews' runners from fairing better in 
1976.

In the University of Illinois Invitational at Champaign the Bulldogs took third place.

Still not in top shape the Bulldogs placed last at the Bearkitten Invitational at Maryville.

The Bulldogs captured another third place finish in the Western Illinois Invitational at 
Macomb.

Five runners must compete for a team to place and at the NEMO State Invitational and the Central 
College Invitational at Pella, injuries took their toll. Only four women competed at each meet 
preventing the Bulldogs from placing.

For the third week in a row Northeast did not have a full five girl contingent to compete in 
the Southwest Missouri State Ozark Invitational at Springfield. Individually, Deb Strehle finished 
29th, enabling her to be the Bulldogs' highest finisher.

The 1976 cross country season ended in Columbia at the MAIAW State Championships. The Bulldogs 
grabbed a fifth place team finish. Junior Deb Strehle finished eighth to pace the Bulldog 
thinclads.

The Team That's All Wet

Though a lack of student interest prevented Northeast from having a swimming team, Diving Coach 
Janice Holmes was able to find enough interested people to form the first diving team in Northeast's 
history.

On Feb. 4 the team competed at the University of Missouri-Rolla versus Principia meet. Gary 
Frandson, Denny McClimon and Tony Albus finished fourth, fifth and seventh respectively in one meter 
competition. In three meter competition, Frandson was second, McClimon fourth and Albus took 
fifth.

On March fourth and fifth Mark Marla, Gary Frandson and Denny McClimon will go to Rolla for the 
MIAA Swimming and Diving Championships. Holmes expects Central Missouri State University to be tough 
in diving.

Holmes will not be back next year but she feels with good coaching the divers will have a good 
future here.

Coach JoAnn Weekley's field hockey squad dropped two games to the University of Missouri-Columbia 
in the team's first contest. Junior Teri Steller tallied the Bulldog's only goal in a 3-1 loss.

The Bulldogs dropped the second game 2-0.

Defending State Champions Central Missouri State University-Warrensburg was the Bulldogs' second 
opponent. The Bulldogs again lacked a solid team effort and dropped a 7-0 decision.

The Bulldogs traveled to Mary Institute in St. Louis for the St. Louis Field Hockey Umpiring
Tournament. The Bulldogs tied the University of Missouri-St. Louis in the first contest 1-1. In the 
second match the University of Missouri dumped the Bulldogs 4-0.

The team's first victory of the season came against Quincy College. Junior forward Teri Steller 
contributed two goals in the Bulldogs' 4-0 win.

St. Louis University, whom Weekley called a "tough team," was the Bulldogs' next opponent.

Though they outplayed the Billikins in the second half, the Bulldogs dropped a 1-0 decision. 
Against the University of Iowa the Dogs won 1-0 and then lost the second contest 2-1.

Having their season finale cancelled against Graceland College, the Bulldogs prepared for the 
State Tourney at Southwest Missouri-Springfield.

In the opening contest of the tourney the Bulldogs defeated Southeast Missouri State of Cape 
Girardeau 3-1.

Against St. Louis University the Bulldogs lost a 2-0 match. Next the very tough Central Missouri 
State University from Warrensburg defeated the Bulldogs 5-1.

Five starters will return to the 1977 season with six positions open.

All Fired Up

The rifle team was a young squad, as most of the members shot in intercollegiate competition for 
the first time.

Rifle teams participate in two types of competition during the course of the season. They are 
shoulder-to-shoulder and postal. In postal competition the teams do not travel, but rather they 
shoot at their respective home ranges and then send their targets to the opposing school to 
determine the winner. Shoulder-to-shoulder means that the teams travel to opposing ranges for the 
contest.

So far this season the rifle team has competed against Kansas City at Manhattan, Kansas, University 
of Missouri--Rolla, at home, the University of Illinois--Champaign and the Kemper Military Academy and 
College--Boonville.

Postal meets included Southwest Missouri State University-- Springfield, the University of

SFC Clyde Nicely, rifle team coach, said that Ben Williams, Bill Silvey and Mike Meyer have been 
the top shooters for the male varsity and that Joy Bradley and Merrie Miller have been the most
consistent female shooters. The rifle teams consist of four shooting members who are chosen to 
compete on the basis of practice scores. Scoring is based on total points out of a possible 600.

In Spike Of It

The 1976 women's volleyball season opened with seven returning letterwomen and an opening match 
victory over Central Methodist College of Fayette for Coach Barb Mayhew's forces.

The Bulldogs then defeated Northwest Missouri State by scores of 15-11, 4-15, 15-2 at 
Maryville.

The defending state champions, Stephens College of Columbia, came to the Pershing Arena and 
defeated the Bulldogs in two straight matches.

Northeast's varsity and junior varsity dropped straight matches to Southeast Missouri State in 
the fourth match of the season.

Losing ways continued in Columbia as the Bulldogs lost to the University of Missouri at St. Louis 
and Columbia.

Unfortunately revenge did not occur as the University of Missouri came to Pershing and defeated 
the Bulldogs in two straight games.

The Bulldogs lost a heart breaker to St. Louis University 15-12, 5-15, 15-8.

The season finale was the state tournament in Columbia. The Bulldogs placed 7th. The tournament 
was won by Southwest Missouri State University.

Plagued by inconsistent play, the volleyballers ended the 1976 season with an overall record of 
5-8.

That's The Way The Ball Bounces

With the acquisition of junior forward Angelo Herman from the junior college ranks and another 
year of experience under their belts, Coach Willard Sims' Bulldogs hoped to improve on their 
second place tie in 1976 and win the MIAA title.

On Nov. 26 Midland Luthern University at Freemont, Neb. entered Pershing Arena to open the 
season for the Bulldogs. Senior forward Bob Young erupted for 28 points and junior forward Angelo 
Herman pulled down 19 rebounds to ensure a 82-59 victory for the Bulldogs.

The Northeast Missouri Shriners sponsored the 1976 Northeast Missouri Shrine Classic for crippled 
children. Pershing Arena echoed with the sound of basketballs on Dec. 3-4 as Northeast, University of
Missouri Rolla, Washburn University Topeka, Kan. and Peru State of Peru, Neb. participated in the 
tournament. On Friday night the Dogs defeated Peru State 89-93 and Saturday night they nipped 
Washburn University 86-83 to raise their season ledger to 3-0.

Southeastern Conference power Mississippi State (5-0) hosted the Bulldogs in Starksville, Miss. 
Mississippi State was picked to lead their conference and unfortunately routed the Dogs 107-58. 
Senior guard Rocky Moore managed 15 points and senior center Warren Reilmann pulled down 11 rebounds 
in their losing effort.

Having shaken off the Mississippi State rout, the Bulldogs trounced Northeastern Illinois State 
of Chicago 106-74 in a Dec. 16 game at Pershing Arena. Forward Bob Young poured in 24 points.

Rival Quincy College continued their jinx over the Bulldogs winning 71-69 in a last-second jump 
shot.

Bob Young again led Dog scoring with 20 points as Angelo Herman pulled down 15 rebounds.

After a short Christmas break, Northeast traveled to Decatur, Ill. to face non-conference foe 
Millikin University. Pivotman Warren Reilmann responded with 27 points and 14 rebounds as the Dogs 
pervailed 79-70. Northeast's record at this point was 5-2.

The MIAA Tournament in Springfield Missouri gave the Bulldogs the opportunity to see how they would 
fare against conference opponents. In the first game, Bob Young hit 20 points to lift the Dogs past 
Southeast Missouri State University--Cape Girardeau 87-82.

In game number two, guard Rocky Moore also hit 20 points as the Bulldogs beat the University of 
Missouri--Rolla Miners 82,76, to gain a final birth against Lincoln University--Jefferson City. 
Lincoln tied Northeast last year for second place in MIAA action. Lincoln hit a last-second shot to 
defeat the Dogs 81-79 and give them the championship.

When the University of Wisconsin-Greenbay came to Pershing on Jan. 12, they were 14-0 and ranked 
number one in Division II standings. Apparently no one told the Bulldogs that they should be awed by 
Greenbay, because they won 68-63 to upset the powerful Wisconsin squad. The game was tied at 59 with 
two minutes left before the Bulldogs prevailed. Bob Young netted 22 points, Rocky Moore got 18 points
and Warren Reilmann hit 15 and pulled down 11 rebounds. Forward Angelo Herman continued his 
rebounding denomination with 15 rebounds. This win gave the Dogs an 8-3 record.

Making Tracks on the Hardwood

Basketball (cont.)

The Southeast Missouri State University Indians hosted the Bulldogs on Jan. 15. This game was 
the MIAA opener for Northeast and they responded with an 82-73 win to start them on the right track 
in conference play. Sophomore Guard Terry Bussard and Angelo Herman combined for 40 points.

Avenging their loss in MIAA tournament play, the University of Missouri-Rolla Miners defeated the 
Dogs 79-73 at the Pershing Arena. This win lifted Rolla to 2-0 and dropped the Bulldogs to 1-1 in 
conference play. Trailing 39-36 at halftime, Northeast came out in the second half and reeled off 18 
points to Rolla's two, to lead 54-41 with 15 minutes to go. Rolla then got the hot hand and cut the 
lead to six points and finally with six minutes left overtook the Bulldogs for good, 66-64.

Harold Robertson pumped in 26 points as the Lincoln University Bluetigers handed the Bulldogs their
second straight conference defeat 84-69. Northeast's conference record fell to 1-2 and 9-5 
overall.

Unable to snap their losing streak, the Dogs were trounced 101-81 by the Missouri Western Griffons 
at St. Joseph. Northeast was never in the game, trailing 59-30 at halftime. Reserve Forward Matt 
Maddox came off the bench to haul down nine rebounds.

Snapping their three game losing streak, the Dogs defeated Avila College of Kansas City 76-55 at 
Pershing. The game featured balanced scoring on the part of the Bulldogs as Center Warren Reilmann
had 18 points, Rocky Moore chipped in 16, Bob Young had 14, Angelo Herman had 12 points and 11 
rebounds and Guard Terry Bussard contributed 10 points.

Hitting a blistering .566 from the field, the Bulldogs stomped Southwest Missouri State 
University-Springfield 99-80 to even their conference ledger at 2-2 and (continued)

'Hooping' It Up

Basketball (cont)

11-6 overall. The game featured a 30 point performance by Bob Young and 18 rebounds by Angelo 
Herman. The contest was never in doubt as the Dogs led by 13 at the half.

In a Jan. 31 clash the Bulldogs invaded the Central Missouri State University gym at Warrensburg 
to take on the MIAA leading Mules. Unfortunately Mule guard Jeff Brandstetter was hot, hitting a 
game-high 22 points to help bury the Dogs 75-60.

Realizing that any more conference losses would all but eliminate them from a conference win, the 
Bulldogs put together a superior team effort against the Northwest Missouri State Bearcats-Maryville 
at Pershing, winnning 98-74. The teams strived for balanced scoring and the Dogs got just that. Bob 
Young and Terry Bussard got 20 points apiece. Warren Reilmann had 19 points and 18 rebounds. Forward 
Angelo Herman contributed 11 points. The win

(Page 121)

evened Northeast's conference record at 3-3 and 12-7 overall.

Another balanced scoring attack defeated Culver-Stockton College from Canton 97-87 on Feb. 7 at 
the Pershing Arena. Bob Young chipped in 25 points. Rocky Moore popped 18 points and had 10 big 
assists, but the dominant force was Angelo Herman with 20 points and 21 rebounds.

On Feb. 12, the University of Missouri at Rolla soundly defeated the Dogs 80-64 at the Miners' 
gym. Despite having a three-point half-time lead, Northeast could not put together two good halfs of 
basketball as the Miners out scored the Bulldogs 30-14 in the last ten minutes. Despite Terry 
Bussard's 24 point performance, the Dogs shot only 36 per cent from the field.

Though the Bulldogs' chances of winning the conference title were slim, Southeast Missouri State 
eliminated the Bulldogs without question on Feb. 14 at Pershing. Though the game was very exciting, 
the Indians prevailed 95-91 in overtime. The Indians took two eight-point leads in the first half 
but Northeast fought back to take a 39-38 lead with 1:56 left in the first half. In overtime the 
Dogs had 91-90 but with a minute to go could not hang onto victory. Northeast's record slipped to 
3-5 and 13-9 overall.

The final home game of the season was disappointing finding the Bulldogs on the low end of a 76-67 
score. The Central Missouri State backcourt combined for 41 points to help the winning effort.

On Feb. 21 Southwest Missouri State University hosted the Dogs and beat them 82-74. The win tied 
the Bears in the MIAA standings with Northeast. Reserve Guard Mark Sanders came off the bench to pop 
in 16 points. Reserve Forward Matt Maddox grabbed a career high of 14 rebounds.

In a high scoring affair the Bulldogs defeated the Northwest Missouri State Bearcats 96-82 at 
Maryville.

The final game on Feb. 28 saw Lincoln down the Bulldogs 79-67.

Queens of the Court

The lady Bulldogs opened their 1976-77 basketball campaign against the defending state champion 
Tarkio College women on November 20.

Despite 13 points scored by Karen Daniels and 10 points apiece by guards Beth Primm and Cindy 
Green, the Bulldogs fell short of powerful Tarkio, 77-62.

Bouncing back in game number two, the Bulldogs handed Graceland College of Lamoni, Ia. a 65-62 
loss. Center Sheila Daniels responded with 19 points and forward Karen Daniels added 14 to spark 
the Northeast victory.

The first home game was Nov. 29 against Trenton Junior College. The game was very exciting and 
at one time was tied at 45. With 1:30 to play, the score was 70-70. Beth Primm came through with 4 
points in the last minute to finally help defeat Trenton, 76-70.

Traveling to Columbia, the women took on the University of Missouri on December 1. Unfortunately, 
a home court advantage and a strong defensive performance by Columbia in the second half defeated 
the Bulldogs, 59-58. The loss evened Northeast's record at 2-2.

Dec. 3-4 found the ladies at the Graceland College Tournament and a first round game against 
Tarkio College. Tarkio was again overwhelming as they trounced the Bulldogs, 68-37. The game was 
very rough as several players were forced to leave the contest. Holly Wagner came off the bench and 
hit 9 points in the losing effort.

A 72-71 win over Graceland College gave Northeast a third place finish in the tournament. Guard 
Millie Dimmitt came off the bench to pop in 18 points. Beth Primm added 15 and Cindy Tucker hit 10 
points.

In a rematch with Trenton Junior College, the Bulldogs made it 2 in a row by winning 71-54.

Shooting 51% from the field, Northeast had three girls to double figures. Theresa Nevins led the 
way with 21 points, Holly Wagner came through with 19 points and 15 rebounds, and guard Millie 
Dimmitt chipped in 10. The girls were then beaten by Willian Woods College of Fulton on Dec. 9.

After Christmas break the ladies took on Western Illinois of Macomb and lost 70-64. Coach Mary Jo 
Murray felt the long Christmas layoff hurt the girls' endurance.

In a Pershing arena battle, the Central Missouri State University team won 69-58. The Bulldogs 
were behind from the outset, trailing 37-26 at half time. Theresa Nevins was again high scorer with 
19 points. Northeast is now 0-2 in the MAIAW, and 5-6 overall.

Finally breaking out of their slump, the ladies downed Stephens College of Columbia 97-59. Theresa 
Nevins nailed 23 points and Holly Wagner and Deb Sylvara had 14 to pad the Bulldog scoring.

Graceland College came to Pershing and fell to Northeast 70-48 as the Bulldogs made it two wins in
a row.

In a February 5 MAIAW contest, University of Missouri at St. Louis was too much for the Bulldogs, 
winning 83-79.

Leading 27-10 at the half, Northeast got back on the winning track by beating Southeast Missouri 
State University at Cape Girardeau, 56-39.

Lacking consistency, the ladies were trounced by the University of Missouri at Columbia, 88-49.

In their final home game the Bulldogs dropped a 61-60 squeaker to Western Illinois University. 
With two minutes remaining in the contest the score was tied at 57. Northeast, as they did all year, 
got some balanced scoring. Nevins led with 16 points. Holly Wagner hit 15 and Cindy Greene had 
14.

The Bulldogs ended the season with a 10-10 overall record, and a 2-5 MAIAW slate.

Pin And Bare It

Ralph Manning's wrestling team took on William Penn College of Oskaloosa, Iowa on Dec. 1. William 
Penn took a 22-20 decision. Bill Armstrong, who usually wrestles at 190, won the heavy weight class,
Keith Moore won at 158 lbs. and Bob Ensminger took the 134 lb. weight class. Manning expressed 
confidence in the preseason that his Bulldogs would be MIAA conference title contenders.

The Graceland College Invitational in Lamoni, Iowa was the Bulldogs' next action. Coe College of 
Cedar Rapids won the tourney with 140 points; the Dogs took a 9th with 80 points and had one winner, 
Keith Moore at 158 lbs. Moore's record improved to 5-O.Terry O'Rourke finished second at 150 lbs.

At the Northwest Missouri State Invitational at Maryville, the Bulldogs captured third place with 
49 points, 18 3/4 points behind tourney winner South Dakota State. Northeast won three places in the 
tournament: Mike Garvey at 126 lbs.; Mike Duffy, second, at 142 lbs.; and Bill Armstrong, second, at 
190 lbs.

In the University of Missouri-Rolla and Central Missouri double dual meet, the Dogs split, beating 
Rolla 32-10 and losing to Central 40-7. Against Rolla, Northeast had 7 wins: Mike Garvey (126), 
Mike Duffy (134), Dan Lowery (142), Terry O'Rourke (150), Keith Moore (158), Bill Armstrong (190), 
John Brothers (Heavy). Mike Duffy and Keith Moore were the only Dog winners in the Central meet.

Northwest Missouri State and Southwest Missouri State were the Bulldogs' opponents in the second 
consecutive double dual at Cape Girardeau. Again the Dogs split, defeating Southeast Missouri State 
25-15 and then losing to Northwest 24-12.

On Jan. 22 at Lamoni, Iowa, Coach Ralph Manning said that the Dogs' double win was their best 
performance since Christmas. Host Graceland College fell 27-2 and the Dogs squeaked by Southwest
Missouri State University at Springfield 19-18. Mike Garvey, Mike Duffy, Bob Ensminger and Keith 
Moore all won twice.

Competition was very tough at the Southwest Missouri State Invitational as nationally-ranked 
Southern Illinois University and the Big Eight University of Missouri attended. Northeast did not 
place but Mike Garvey, Keith Moore and Bill Armstrong all posted victories.

Again splitting at a double dual meet, the Bulldogs lost to MacMurray College of Jacksonville, Ill. 
24-17 and then downed University of Missouri-St. Louis 35-17.

On Feb. 12 the wrestlers traveled to Cedar Rapids, Iowa to take on host Coe College and Western 
Illinois University Macomb. Both schools were too much for Northeast as Coe won 28-18 and Western 
Illinois triumphed 38-21.

Warrensburg was the site of the MIAA Championship. Manning felt that Central Missouri State 
University would be the team to beat, and he was proven correct as Central won the tournament with 
98 1/2 points. Northwest took second with 57 points and the Bulldogs grabbed a third place finish 
with 54 1/2 points, followed by Southeast Missouri with 38, Rolla 25, Southwest 21 1/2 and Lincoln, 
2 points.

In the only two home meets of the year, the Dogs defeated Southwest Missouri State University, 
29-10 and Lincoln University, 54-6. Heavyweight Greg Fredricks gained two pins.

On Feb. 15 the wrestlers downed Graceland College 28-22.

The Spice of Life

I guess you could say--we're the spice of life," laughed Sophomore Dan Lowry, from Des Moines, 
Iowa.

"Yeah," agreed his closest friend, Sophomore Ray Dick, also of Des Moines. "We're Salt and Pepper 
and we season things right."

Ray and Dan acquired their Salt and Pepper identity after seeing the movie "Salt and Pepper" with
Peter Lawford and Sammy Davis, Jr.

"It's our gimmick," Dan said. "We want to give people a lasting impression of our 
friendship."

Ray and Dan, who have known each other for over six years, wrestled together in high school.

"We really became close friends during high school since we were involved in a lot of the same 
activities, like wrestling and Varsity Club," explained Ray.

Besides being recruited to wrestle for the University, Ray and Dan came here for another important 
reason: to study law enforcement.

Ray and Dan are going to be the toughest but most helpful cops Des Moines has ever seen. "We'll 
bust heads if we have to because we know what needs to be cleaned up," Dan said.

Ray, who has always wanted to be an officer, convinced Dan that Des Moines needed people like them 
on their police force. "Unlike Dan, I've been there. It's tough. I exposed Dan to the corruption and 
that's why we both want to be officers. We want to see things done right," he said.

When not studying and wrestling, Salt and Pepper enjoy other activities like dancing, racing cars 
and being disc jockies for University sponsored dances.

Ray and Dan feel they have gained from their friendship. They feel they know how to cope with 
racial subjects.

"We understand each other to the extent that when we are confronted by minority problems or vice-
versa, we know how to cope with it," Dan said.

Dan and Ray's friendship is really strong and although sometimes they have disagreements, they 
never have fights. "We've been around each other a long time so we know what situations to avoid so 
we don't fight," Ray said.

The only problem we might have is competition. Even that's never been any problem. It has just 
made our friendship stronger", Dan added.

Ray and Dan are looking forward to being officers in Des Moines, but for now it's campus life: 
getting involved and meeting lots of people. So, anyway it shakes out, this University has the right 
seasoning with Salt and Pepper.

On The Go

Women's Track Coach Barb Mayhew said the women thinclads should have some good individual 
performances in '77 but feels a lack of depth will be a problem.

On Jan. 29 the women opened their season with a dual meet with Central Missouri State at 
Warrensburg. Freshman distance runner Bridget Yaeger set a new Bulldog two-mile record of 12:48.8.

Feb. 5 found the Bulldogs in Macomb, Ill. for the Western Illinois Triangular. Taking third, the 
women trailed Illinois State University and host Western Illinois University. Sophomore Anita Fowler 
grabbed a first in the 220-yd. dash for the Bulldogs.

At the University of Missouri Invitational in Columbia, again no team scores were kept, but there 
were some impressive individual results. Anita Fowler was third in the 300-yd. run and three girls 
set new Bulldog records. Bridget Yaeger ran a 12:28.2 for the two mile. Cathy Romine had a 62.8 for 
the 440-yd. run and Ranae Meier sprinted to a 9.3 in the 50-yd. hurdles.

The defending MIAA Champion Bulldogs began their defense of the title at the Drake Invitational 
in Des Moines, Iowa.

Winning six events, the Bulldogs looked good in early season action. Sprinter Steve Powell led the 
way, taking a first in the 50-yd. dash and the 300-yd. dash. Teammate Bill Smith captured second 
place in both events. Dan Futrell took a first in the 1000-yd. run and Mike Laususe grabbed a first 
in the 400-dash. Ephraim Woods won the 600-yd. event and Dave Harris took the sixth first-place 
finish in the 880-yd. run.

Traveling to Champaign, the Dogs took fifth place at the University of Illinois Invitational. 
Sophomore All-American Dan Futrell won the 880-yd. run and All-American Charles "Cookie" Thorton 
recorded a 6'-10" high jump to take first at the events.

At the Central Missouri State Invitational at Warrensburg, Dan Futrell continued his winning ways 
as he anchored the winning Bulldog mile and two-mile relay teams and won the 6000-yd. run.

Fifty-six points were enough for the Bulldogs to win the University of Northern Iowa quadrangular 
meet.

The Western Illinois University Leathernecks prevailed over the Bulldogs 73-57 in dual competition. 
The WIU marked the ninth consecutive year that the Leathernecks have beaten the Dogs.

The sixth meet of the season found the Bulldogs traveling to Iowa City for a dual meet with the 
University of Iowa. The Big Ten school proved just too much as they downed the Bulldogs 74-57. Chris 
Franklin gave the Bulldogs something to cheer about as he set a new Northeast school record with a 
time of 2:12.3 in the 1000-yd run, erasing the old mark of 2:12.5 set by Bob Frost in 1967.

The New Kids In Town

Rugby makes its appearance on campus for the first time in the history of Bulldog sports with the 
addition of a new physical education activities class called Rugby (PE 144).

Mark Ruggeburg, graduate student and assistant wrestling coach, began the rugby tradition in 
Kirksville when he started a team known as the Northeast Missouri Rugby Club in the fall of 1975. 
The team, consisting of University athletes, made its season premiere in the spring of 1976 with a 
24-0 defeat over Corydon, Iowa.

The eventual success and enthusiasm of this rugby club enabled Ruggeburg to convince Dr. William 
Richerson, head of the Department of Physical Education, that such a class was feasible on campus.

The rookie ruggers suffered a loss in their second game of the

(Page 131)

season in 1976 against the University of Missouri at Rolla. The more experienced Miners, having 
a great rugby tradition, defeated Northeast 15-6 in the first round of the UMR Invitational 
Tournament. However the Northeast Rugby Club bounced back with a 33-18 victory over Southeast 
Louisiana State in their final game of the tournament.

The ruggers, nicknamed the Bulldogs because of the team personnel, continued their winning ways 
with a second defeat over Corydon, Iowa by a score of 24-9.

After a forfeit by the University of Grinnell, the Bulldogs closed out their season with a 
successful showing in the St. Louis Ruggerfest.

By defeating the St. Louis Highlanders 7-0 and St. Louis University 6-0, the Dogs closed out 
their first season ever with a remarkable 6-1 record.

More good things were in store for the Bulldogs as they began to tackle their 1976 fall 
schedule.

With a much upgraded team due to better experienced players and the addition of a couple of 
veteran rugger transfers, the Bulldogs won their first game with a 33-10 trouncing of Corydon, 
Iowa.

The results of the rest of the Fall matches were as follows: Northeast 13, University of Iowa 4; 
Illinois State fell to the Bulldogs 12-0 as did the Kansas City Blues. The Dogs then trounced the 
St. Louis Highlanders and then defeated the University of Iowa again 10-4 to close out their very 
successful season.

The sighs of an Angelo Herman slamming one through the hoop or a Steve Powell springing free for 
a big gainer are very exciting events to behold.

It, however, is the teams that make sports on this campus a success.

NMSU is a winner because ten athletic teams performed well enough as a group to win the All-Sports 
Title of the MIAA. This imaginary trophy proves NMSU has the people and the talent to be the best.

Making The Grade

Volleyball is always one of the most highly competitive intramural events and this year was no 
exception. In the All-Sports trophy division final the Dobson Hall Pirates defeated the Phi Sigma 
Epsilon Masters in four games. It also took four games for the Elite Troups to defeat the Spikers for 
the Independent Championship. Dobson Hall reigned as the All-University champions over the Elite 
Troup, but they were forced to come from behind to win.

After over a year of public preparation, the Bicentennial has now passed, only to be remembered in 
books and phrases as "The Spirit of '76."

Getting Into The Spirit Of Things

This year's nationwide celebration can be considered a disaster," said Dr. Eric Goldman, history 
professor and authority on Twentieth Century American History. "American's don't have a safe or 
secure feeling that was apparent in the past."

Goldman, who presented a lecture "1776 and 1976; the Continuing Revolution" in Baldwin Hall last 
spring related the idea of the Bicentennial to the current celebration. He felt that many of the 
activities being done were silly and vulgar.

Goldman, chairman of the Bicentennial planning committee and the former consultant to President 
Johnson, traced the skeptics of the celebration beginning with a review of the Centennial. He feels 
the Bicentennial, which was climaxed in the 1960's, was a true celebration. "The American experience 
was something they truly thought of as American," he explained. "There was a common feeling of well-
being and security. People became concerned about their way of life." 

Goldman concluded his lecture with the idea that "America the Beautiful," through corruption, 
unemployment, inflation and poverty had become "America the tarnished" from sea to shining oil 
slick.

A monument to the bicentennial tree is dedicated to all alumni. (ABOVE) Members of Alpha Phi Omega,

Missouri Hall's Salute

Rockets lit the heavens with their firey trails and firecrackers echoed noisily throughout the 
night as the University celebrated the Fourth of July in mid-April. The display sponsored by the 
Missouri Hall Residence Council opened a week-long bicentennial salute.

Dr. Walter Ryle, president emeritus of the University, and Dr. David March, social science 
instructor, presented lectures on "The Development of NMSU" and "Missouri Involvement in the Civil 
War," Tuesday and Wednesday nights in the Missouri Hall cafeteria.

Thursday featured "1776," a movie based on the politics and pleasures at the time of the 
Revolutionary War, and Friday, the Missouri Hall Beer Barrons sponsored a dance at the V.F.W. Hall. 
Concluding the week's activities was an all-dorm picnic held at Red Barn Park Saturday.

Campus Bicentennial Offers Variety

University Players under the direction of Dr. J. G. Severns concluded their season with Bernard 
Shaw's satirical comedy, Devil's Disciple, a melodramatic spoof.

The play, set during the colonial uprising against England, described the incompetence of the 
British War Office.

Richard Dudgeon, the disciple of the devil, was depicted by Scott Smith who inherits the house 
of his father against the wishes of his mother, played by Mary Williamson.

Richard becomes the hero when he assumes the identity of the Reverend Anderson, played by Kevin 
Andrews.

C. Ann Brown portrayed Judith Anderson while Keith Byran, Jim LeGrand and Tim Loftus played 
members of the bungling British bureaucracy.

The costumes, like the "red coats" of the British, were extremely realistic in depicting the 
colonial period.

The success of the Devil's Disciple was exemplified by its good response. The light-hearted 
antics made the play a very entertaining performance.

Before being taken to prison by the redcoats, Kevin Andrews as Reverend Anderson, tries to 
comfort his wife, played by C. Ann Brown. (ABOVE) Richard Dudgeon, played by Scott Smith, gloats

Show Me 1776

The award-winning Broadway musical "1776" was presented during April in Baldwin Hall 
auditorium.

The play by Peter Stone, with music and lyrics by Sherman Edwards, captured the wit as well as 
the seriousness of the founding fathers.

The action centered on John Adams' efforts to persuade the congressional delegates to declare 
America free from British rule. Finally with the help of Benjamin Franklin, Adams gets Jefferson to 
write a declaration of independence.

As well as being factual, "1776" offered lively songs and dances throughout the show adding to 
its entertaining atmosphere.

The finale, which included the signing of the Constitution to the tolling of the Liberty Bell, 
brought the audience to its feet in a well-deserved round of applause.

Missouri Show Me

The history of Missouri came to life during the Bicentennial production of "Missouri Show-Me." 
The script, directed by Al Srnka, was based upon musical and historical events written by or about
Missourians.

A capacity crowd filled the Little Theatre in Baldwin Hall to enjoy the vaudevillian-styled 
routines. Favorite acts were an Indian number, "The Winnebagoes;" a complex dance routine, "Hoe 
down;" and a song and dance number on the legendary "Frankie and Johnny." The most popular act of 
the evening was a Walt Disney medley which included the Mickey Mouse Club. The act brought back many 
good memories and was an honorable tribute to the man from Marceline.

Ringing For Freedom

Clever in the nation’s history has the Fourth of July celebration been so varied. Practically every 
city and town across the nation participated in some sort of bicentennial salute. Philadelphia rang 
the centennial bell, a replica of the Liberty Bell, 13 times, which echoed throughout the land as 
churches rang their bells in unison. The University joined in by ringing the bell which was used as 
a civil defense warning bell on campus during the two world wars. The ceremony which was held in 
front of Kirk Memorial was open to the public, allowing children to take turns ringing the bell.

Special parades, displays, concerts and activities were held throughout the nation. Activities were 
held at Thousand Hills State Park which featured old-time races, games and contests. Fireworks 
concluded the day’s activities as they did throughout the nation.

One of the most spectacular events was Operation Sail where 200 ships, representing many countries 
from around the globe, met in New York Harbor.

The West Coast had a miniature Operation Sail in the San Francisco Bay.

The Old West was not forgotten as 50 wagons formed an eastbound train and arrived in Valley Forge on 
July 3.

The bells of the First Christian Church, like many others, were rung during the bell ringing ceremony.

Spirit of '76

From T-shirts to garbage bags decorated with liberty bells, the bicentennial spirit spread from 
coast to coast. More than 90% of the high school graduates wore some form of bicentennial symbol, 
whether it was a red, white and blue tassel or round-the-shoulder Liberty Bell medallions.

The genius of American enterprise had produced bicentennial memorabilia for almost every occasion, 
from the crib with a teddy bear that recited excerpts from the Declaration of Independence, to the 
death bed, where a Spirit of '76 coffin was sold.

Almost every corner in most cities was decorated with bicentennial fire hydrants while brightly-
colored red, white and blue lightpoles ran along the streets.

The food chains also got in the bicentennial spirit by providing their customers choices which 
ranged from red, white and blue ice cream cones to red, white and blue ice cream waffles.

Several states showed their true bicentennial spirit by making red, white and blue license plates. 
Hawaii's attempt failed as Hawaii's red turned into pink because of a defect in the printing 
machine.

The chief goal of the
 

(Page 157)

by Winston Vanderhoof

Bicentennial was to make Americans proud and to give them a sense of history. With this goal in 
mind the federal government established a committee to help provide bicentennial activities. More 
than $200 million were spent by private and government sources on cultural programs around the 
nation. Some events that this money helped sponsor were the Air Force's Bicentennial Band's free
concerts in the 50 state capitals; the American Freedom Train which toured over 80 cities in 48 
states; and over 10,000 shows, plays, concerts and displays.

The bicentennial conference on the United States Constitution met in Philadelphia in April. 
Political scientists, legal scholars and labor leaders discussed the origins of the Constitution and 
applicability to the future.

Foreign nations also held observances in honor of the United State's 200th birthday. England 
loaned the original Magna Charta to the United States for a year. Also various dignitaries came and 
toured the United States.

The Bicentennial has provided Americans with a renewal of enthusiasm for their nation. This spirit 
will hopefully be maintained throughout the future.

A Lasting Tribute

The long-awaited celebration of the United States' 200th birthday has come and gone and is 
already forgotten by some Americans. All that is left of the celebration for many are worn-out 
buttons, faded bicentennial T-shirts and red, white and blue Pepsi cans.

The Bicentennial Committee on campus decided it wanted to have a lasting tribute of the national 
celebration. It wanted to have something that the campus community could look back upon and would 
always remember. So the committee asked William Unger, professor of art, to create a mural that 
would be a lasting tribute to the Bicentennial.

The actual idea to have someone paint a mural of Thomas Hart Benton's works came from some of the
administrators who had been to the Capitol Building in Jefferson City and had seen some of Benton's 
paintings, Unger said.

Re-creating Benton's works was not easy for Unger. He had a lot of preparation to do before ever 
picking up a brush to start painting.

"I had to study first, all of Benton's life and then all of Benton's works," Unger said. He wrote 
everywhere in the nation that he knew Benton's works were located. He tried to get as many prints 
of Benton's works together as he could.

Then came the problem of selecting, from Benton's various works, paintings that could be used for 
the mural in a sequence that showed the development of the nation from the beginning to the present, 
Unger said.

"I eliminated certain things and I overemphasized certain things. Then I made a small pencil sketch 
to bring all the various segments into the framework of this elongated wall," he said.

Unger had some color prints of Benton's works but most of the prints he received were black and 
white. He had to change almost all of the coloring because the paintings he was working with were 
done in different periods of Benton's life, and Benton had changed the intensity of the color. Benton 
had also changed his style slightly.

"I had to secure as a permanent continuation the whole wall so it didn't look like different 
segments," Unger said. "So I had to change proportions of figures; I had to change certain 
directions, and most of all I had to recreate colors which very often differed very much from 
Benton's original colors."

Unger actually started working on the mural in June of 1975 by gathering Benton's prints and 
information on his life. He started working on the wall in September and finished the mural in July
of 1976.

Another problem for Unger was finding time to work on the mural and still teach classes. He worked 
on the wall whenever he had an hour between classes, two afternoons a week which he had free, and 
on weekends which he considered the best time. Unger worked approximately 1,800 hours to complete the 
mural.

Before the painting began, the mural was completely sketched out in charcoal. (ABOVE) The 
dedication of Unger's mural was held after the Alumni Banquet during Homecoming.
 

(Page 159)

At first there was the idea of putting the whole mural inside the Activities Room of the Student 
Union. But because of the windows and supports located in the room, it was decided the mural would be
too interrupted.

The wall the mural was painted on was chosen because it was the best available and less 
interrupted. Unger still had to work around two doors and a fire extinguisher.

He didn't find working on the wall frustrating, but instead he found it somewhat scary because 
"the wall grew longer and longer as I was working on it."

"I grew into it the more I painted on it," he said. He was scared at first that he wouldn't be able 
to match Benton's style. He tried to put himself as much as possible into the role of Benton. "After 
one week of working on it I was already into it," Unger said. "From then on it came naturally." 

The first half of the mural tells the story from the beginning with the birth of the nation and is 
followed by the western expansion. The last half are scenes which are regionalistic in nature and 
which influenced life in the Midwest. The two halves are divided by a sketch of Abraham Lincoln 
stretching his hand out to a Negro.

Many Americans have just faint memories of the Bicentennial or just a collection of Bicentennial 
coins or stamps. The Thomas Hart Benton mural is a lasting tribute to the bicentennial celebration 
which the people of this University will always have to remember.
 
The finished product adds life to the once barren walls. (ABOVE) After many weeks of hard work,
Unger puts on the finishing touches.

On July 4, 2076 . . .

The University Time Capsule sponsored by the Bicentennial Committee was dedicated in December by 
President Emeritus Walter Ryle III. The dedication was accepted by President McClain at a special 
ceremony with Don Wolf, president of the Student Senate, presiding. The time capsule contains 
approximately 50 items representing the University and the Bicentennial year. The time capsule holds 
a variety of items including: a 1976 Echo, several issues of the Index and Kirksville Daily Express,
student scholarships, publications, faculty bulletins, student directories,

Dr. Walter Ryle presents his paper to Dr. Charles McClain with Don Wolfe, Student Senate 
president, looking on. (ABOVE) Hank Janssen, Scott Nelson and Don Wolf examine the time capsule

and lyceum brochures. A special addition to the capsule was a 700-page book by Dr. Ryle entitled, 
The Centennial History of Northeast Missouri State Teachers' College.

The items were selected by a special committee appointed by the Bicentennial Committee. 
Representatives included: division heads, professors, the director of publications and members from 
Cardinal Key, Blue Key and Student Senate.

The time capsule was sealed and placed in the base of the Eternal Flame where the president of 
the University will open it on July 4, 2076.

Dr. Walter Ryle cuts the cake at the closing of the time capsule ceremonies. (Below) Dr. Edward

The tempo of University life continued with the birth of new fads. Students clad in gauchos and 
painter's pants roamed the campus walkways. Residence halls became organized as wings assumed names 
and competed in campus activities. Also a new religion appeared: the Bahai Faith.

Moving In

by Bruce Capp

Picture the end of that perfect date. You've gone to the movies, enjoyed a pizza at Pagliai's, 
and taken in a scenic view of the "submarine races" at the lake. Now you're bringing your special 
lady back to her hall. As you climb the steps in back of Ryle Hall to put the finishing touches on 
the best evening of the semester, a rather obnoxious odor makes its way downwind to where you are. 
Trying to ignor it won't help. Where is that awful smell coming from?

The answer lay in those green monsters which decorated the sidewalks in the rear of all residence 
halls: The Garbage Dumpsters. Such was part of a day in the life of a residence hall dweller.

Other aspects of residence hall life were long lines in the cafeterias, unbearable noise levels in 
corridors, unbelieveable parking, facilities and other problems which arose when one tried to live 
in the same building with 450 other people.

Actually, living in a residence hall was a two-sided issue. There were good experiences which, 
more often than not, outnumbered the bad.

Permanent friendships were formed. Many activities which promoted the resident's mental as well as 
physical well-being were held. Also, a quick trip down the hall would usually produce good results 
when one ran out of toothpaste, as a sharing neighbor was almost always there.

The fall semester saw a unique change take place through the debut of a new director of housing, 
Ron Gaber, and his brainchild, the Residence Hall Association. They took on the challenge to make 
traditional dormitory living a thing of the past, and substituted a positive life-style in its 
place.

Meeting Friends ...

Halls (cont.)

Part of the transition was to assign new goals to the Residence Hall Directors and R.A.'s. They 
were to make the hall more than just a place in which to eat and sleep.

Slowly, the residence halls were becoming a home away from home. Each hall had its own 
distinguishing characteristics which made it different in spirit from the others. Murals, special 
interest groups which lived together and nick names for certain wings of a hall brought a sense of 
unity and cohesiveness which made the co-existence more tolerable.

Each resident of the halls would always have his own individual memories of what hall living was 
really like in 1976-77, whether they were good or bad. Some were unusual.

Halls (cont.)

The lack of paper towels in the restrooms of Missouri and Dobson Halls;

Those exciting panty and jock raids in which the participants emerged soaking wet and exhausted, 
but happy;

A new food service which, if not perfect, was improved;

The first Annual Residence Hall Sweetheart Formal which ended in its own unique manner;

The Ryle Hall Furniture Phantom who mysteriously relieved Ryle's formal lounge of couches, 
chairs, etc;

The renovations which seemed to go on forever in some places, and never started in others;

And of course, listening to the campus radio station KNEU, and finding that bit of stardom by 
hearing one's voice on "Roll Call."

During Ryle Hall renovations, the lounges remained vacant for many weeks. (BELOW) Dinner time 
provides a time for Centennial Hall residents to socialize.
 

(Page 169)

Making Do

Floor parties, special intramural team sports, programs on human growth, dances, fresh ideas, and 
a willingness to participate, helped to bring new life to residence halls and made them a community 
within themselves.

And so, that perfect date comes to an end. You drive to your residence hall to look for a parking 
place and a half-hour later you make it to your room. Even that mattress that took two months to get 
used to looks inviting now. . . and just as your eyes close and you prepare for a long night's sleep,
you hear your roommate and five others flip on the light and yell, "Where's the party?"

So ended a day in the life of one who lived in a residence hall.

Those students who want to make sure they eat at 4:30, often have a long wait before hand. (BELOW) 
Dobson Hall lounges provide all the comforts of home. (BELOW LEFT) Food lines in Ryle Hall, 
especially on specialty night, are often long.

A World Apart

"I came here for a chance to improve my English and to further my education," said Pravanee 
Theinpeng, a foreign student from Thailand. This was a common idea expressed by many who have come 
to this university. The change of cultures has created some difficulties for the foreign students.

Adjusting to differences in food has been one of their biggest tasks. Many miss their country's 
specialities, but steak, spaghetti and hamburger have become favorites.

Campus activities are enjoyed by the students; however, many miss their familiar extra-curricular 
activities. These activities included intellectual discussions about political, economical and social
situations as well as constantly playing soccer and going to the beach.

The students have come to the university with varied educational backgrounds. Some have come from 
schools with qualified teachers from all parts of the world, while others have had few opportunities 
to even attend an educational facility.

During the summer vacation some foreign students are able to go home while others stay and work. 
Many of the foreign students enjoy the short vacations by traveling or going to homes of friends and 
roommates. This gives them a chance to visit places that are unfamiliar.

Working through their International Students Club and with Fran McKinney, the students hope to 
improve some areas of their campus life. They would like to see the formation of more language 
courses and approval to live off campus.

The Laundry Life . . .

by Elaine Tetley

Frustration and anger is what you feel after coming back from doing your laundry at the laundro-
mat. Whether it's at Campus Coin or the laundry room at the residence hall, these feelings still 
haunt you. At Campus Coin about the only convenience is that it is "close" to the campus. However, 
you will find after getting there that the price for operating the washers has gone up 15 cents! It 
now costs 50 cents instead of 35 cents! This may not sound like a lot, but to most college students' 
budget, it is!

So it usually goes; you've walked down there--lugging your baskets of laundry, walked through the 
door, an unbelieveable ordeal, struggle to get a washer and find the prices have gone up. Naturally 
you've only brought the amount of change you thought it would take.

If you're lucky, a friend has gone with you and he or she has some extra change with them. If not, 
you are forced to go back home and get some more.

After all that, you finally get your clothes washed and then it's time to fight the crowd for a 
dryer. If you are lucky you get one. But now you must stand in a crowd in front of it for fear that 
"the other guy" will grab your clothes out of it after it stops. Thus you don't have a chance to put 
in some more clothes. This is typical of the place during the week. On a weekend, you can expect an 
"all out war."

Using the residence hall laundry room has only one advantage too! It's close. Usually you have to 
go down to first floor. You carry all your laundry down there making two to three trips up and down 
the stairs carrying your detergent and various other needed items.

You're almost ready but you need some change. You look up at the clock and it's 3:05. Sorry--the 
office closed at 3:00. You'll now have to wait until 7:00 for it to open again to get change. If 
you're lucky someone will feel sorry for your poor soul and will give you change, but that 
possibility is a slim one.

Well, you are fortunate; someone has smiled upon your laundry. You get change. Entering the 
laundry room, you find six out of the ten washers are broken. So you have to wait 30 minutes to get a 
washer. Then it's like fighting for blood to get a dryer, of which four out of eight are usually 
broken.

You learn quickly never to leave your laundry in the dryer because you'll come back to find your 
clothes still damp, all in a pile on top of a broken dryer. Meanwhile the dryer you had waited one-
half hour for is now drying your "enemy's" clothes.

Laundry has always been a chore but now it is an expensive war.

So if you can get your laundry done, and still be sane after all the hassles, you are an 
exceptional person and someone has definitely smiled upon your laundry.

A Part Of Living

Off -campus living is more than just sleeping, studying, and in some cases, eating in a different 
locale--it's the freedom and responsibility to grow into independent adults, according to the 
majority of off-campus renters.

Freedom is the main reason for preferring the off-campus life style to the rules and regulations 
of the residence halls. Of this general term freedom, there are several important advantages.

According to Pam, sophomore, this freedom includes freedom to come and go as she pleases, to have 
guests anytime, to eat when and what she likes, to have more of her personal possessions at hand 
without fearing that they will be stolen, and overall privacy. Pam said an advantage that could not 
go unmentioned was the fact that it was easier to study at "home."

Also, her landlady presents no problems whatsoever.

"A person has more of an opportunity to accept real responsibilities such as bills, meals and 
studies living away from the nest," says Bill, junior.

"When you live in a hall, it's no different than living at home. In a hall someone decides what 
time you'll eat, where you can party and the bathroom is automatically cleaned. There are relatively 
few decisions that one must make while living under the wing of NMSU."

Another male student suggests that while cooking what you want to eat is an advantage, having 
to cook is a disadvantage. Many off-campus students find it both economical and sensible to purchase
a meal ticket. An endorsement for the meal ticket comes from a fraternity house resident. "I feel 
that by being able to go to the cafeteria three times a day and eat as much as I want (which is more 
than the average student), the cafeteria is the one on the short end of the stick."

Opposing this viewpoint is a female student living off-campus who enjoys cooking, although it 
requires precision budgeting and careful shopping. "I eat what I pay for and little is wasted. When 
I lived in a hall last year, (cont.)

Cuttin' Loose ...

I skipped a lot of pre-paid-for meals which resulted in the loss of my money." Naturally there's 
cleaning, and up-keep involved in housekeeping on- as well as off-campus, but there's no once-a-week 
maid off-campus. To quote a famous television ad, "You are the crew." Carol, junior, believes that 
one takes more pride in up-keeping one's home than simply cleaning one's room. "The hall style of two
peas in a pod reminded me too much of living back home with Mom and Dad."

Next, of course, are the financial obligations. Most students interviewed expressed the fact that 
off-campus living was cheaper for them. However, the general consensus is that one doesn't always get 
what he pays for in facilities. Sandy, senior, noted that in her experience living off-campus, she 
found that the houses closer to campus, despite living conditions, were more expensive than houses, 
apartments or rooms further from campus.

Off-campus residents find that having a roommate(s) can result in reduced individual rates.

Although it has been rumored that landlords and ladies are ogres concerning college students' 
requests for repairs and problems, many student/landlord relationships substantiate just the opposite.
Unfortunately, the few negative attitudes by the "ogre-type" concerning extermination of bugs or 
mice, repairing things like broken doors, leaky faucets and drafts are a reality in some cases. 
"When our pipes froze last winter, our landlord came by to explain the situation, and fix the pipes,"
said Carol. "I guess we're pretty lucky because if we ask for service, we get it."

On the other hand, Bill told a tale of woe about not getting any response from his apartment 
manager concerning much needed weather stripping. "We finally gave up and made the adjustment 
ourselves."

(Page 177)

One disadvantage agreed upon by most off-campus students is that they feel out-of-touch with 
many campus events. Sue, sophomore, said, "Sure we're on campus for classes, and we see posters and 
the like, but there seems to be an unexplainable communication gap. I just don't feel as informed 
about the happenings of NMSU as I did when I lived on-campus."

"The thing we miss most is the daily cafeteria chatter," added two off-campus roommates. "It seems 
like we don't know as many people, and we're not as included in group activities. Many of the off-
campus students dislike being discriminated against and left out because of where they live."

As far as studies are concerned, the off-campus students generally contend that studying comes 
more easily. Quiet, less commotion, and fewer distractions present a good study atmosphere. Then 
again, some students are easily swayed by a roommate's activities as compared to studies.

Off-campus folks are doing it because they like it for many reasons. They admit sometimes it's not 
always smooth sailing, but the experience of having handled the bumps is invaluable in growing up to 
responsibility.

Studying, meals, managers, and housekeeping on your own--"that's life!"

Education On Wheels

The cars faced each other in the narrow roadway. One small parking space lay between them. What 
was to happen?

The morning sun beat its hot smouldering rays on their metallic hoods. The engines, once soft 
purrs, turned to roars and the fight was on . . . Who would win the coveted space?

This was only one aspect that the campus commuters endured many times during the year. Although 
the amounts of parking spaces had risen with the addition of two major parking facilities, the 
hassle continued.

Who were these commuters who made the drive to campus, attended classes and then, usually, 
immediately returned home? They were students, who after braving all kinds of weather conditions and 
paying the high gasoline prices, drove to and from campus without any time for the varied campus 
activities.

Some of the commuters drove fairly long distances. One commuter from Brookfield said that 
sometimes she got tired of the trip, but Highway 11 was like a roller coaster so it kept her alert. 
Another commuter said the only bad part for him was getting up early enough to make his 7:30 class. 
Many times he said it was "rough" to get up.

Commuting seemed to create many hassles for the students so why did they do it? Several were
married and their spouses worked in their home town, while others stayed with their parents to save 
money.

Whatever the reason, many students thought commuting the best way to go to school.

Gray Liberation

Dr. Carl Umanzio decided he would return to school as a student.

by Brenda Jenkins

Gray Liberation was alive and well on campus with several over-65 students enrolled. Being over 
65 automatically qualifed these men and women to study for free. The normal $155 semester fee was 
waived for these so-called "non-traditional" students.

Technically, a non-traditional student was any enrolled person 40 years of age or older. In the 
1976-77 term, 98 students of this age group were in school. Comparatively, 82% of the student body 
consisted of traditional students aged 18-22.

According to enrollment statistics, only five people enrolled in 1977 were over 65. However, David 
Rector, staff assistant to the dean of instruction, suspects there were more. He explained that some 
applicants leave the age space blank on admission forms.

Reasons for senior citizen enrollment were simple. Retirement left them with free time which was 
made constructive through class attendance. Classes served the purpose of hobbies, fulfilling 
special interests and, yes, even learning.

Learning to cope with retirement was a challenge and an accomplishment to older non-traditional 
students. However, as today's rule was tomorrow's exception, the older students enjoyed the young 
environment. Many of them offered their experiences on life as lessons to the traditional students. 
Younger students admitted that after they got used to being in class with people the same age as 
grandparents or parents: "It was all right. They acted like they really liked it!"

People to Meet...

By Patty White

Those people who weren't lucky enough to come to Kirksville only on a visiting basis sometimes 
found the town a very dull, maybe even a little drab. But those who spent seven days a week here, 
had to learn to entertain themselves. It might have taken a while to learn the ropes but sooner or 
later each one found their own routine.

Freshmen were faced with the problem of finding something to do as well as someone to do it with. 
But friends were made quickly and parties were found easily.

Rush was the partying season at the fraternity houses. There was hardly a night that went by 
without a party and a ruined pair of shoes or jeans. You always knew the party was good when the 
pair of jeans you wore never quite came clean.

Many bars offer "Specialty Nights" hoping to draw more people. (ABOVE) A night at the untouchable
seldom proves to be anything but enjoyable.

Things To Do...

Social Life (cont.)

The girl on campus had it made. On Monday she could go to one frat house, Tuesday she partied at 
another, and so the days went.

Private apartment parties were also a popular pastime. Whether the party was planned or not it 
would lead to a wild time. It would start off as a quiet evening with just a couple of friends, 
then a couple more happen to drop by, then more and more until sometimes it was hard to find your 
own living room.

There was, however, much more to do than just go to parties. Are you coordinated? If so, a night 
at Leo's Roller Rink proved interesting. You walked in, put your skates on and entered the rink at 
your own risk. At first you thought you were pretty good till some little ankle-biter wizzes by and 
knocks you flat. But you don't despair. After a couple times around, you either learn how to avoid 
him, go faster than him, or stay in the corner and skate in circles.

Then again, you could always go to the movies; however, your selection would be limited. Uptown 
you could catch a Disney flick or when the weather was nice, take in a movie and a six-pack at the 
drive-in.

Pinball machines provide many hours of entertainment for Chai Jiravisitoul and Rich Price.

Places To Go

Then for those who had reached that magical age when doors to the bars and discos were open for 
the over 21 crowd, the bars were places where things just happened. Some nights were better than 
others and you quickly learned to watch for those specialty nights.

Happy-hour was common to almost every bar in town and after a hard week in school those reduced 
prices became really tempting. As soon as Friday's classes came the decisions had to be made... to 
skip class or not to skip class? Happy Hour was usually the victor and classes suffered.

The bars had something for everyone. If you were a big beer drinker, pitcher night was for you. If
you liked to have a lot of women around you, ladies night was your favorite. If you liked to play 
the answer man, then it was a night of trivia. Whether you liked to listen to live entertainment, 
disco or a tune from the juke box, bars were the place to be.

Pizza Guide: For Pizza Lovers

by Bruce Capp

As a public service to the money-wise student consumer at the University, the ECHO presents a 
consumer's report on Kirksville pizza parlors. The purpose of this report is to provide information 
and counsel on matters relating to the expenditure of dwindling student finances and to cooperate 
with individual and group efforts seeking to create and maintain decent pizza standards.

By 1978 if the present trend continues, students of the University will eat half their meals 
outside their halls and apartments. Doubtless, they will eat many of those meals at Lisa's, Ken's, 
Pagliai's and the Pizza Hut. Reasons for this mass exodus to the pizza parlors are obvious. For one 
thing, the food is generally cheap. It is also filling. And judging by the fact that students return 
to them time and time again, many like the way it tastes.

Our product ratings were based on estimated overall quality with high regard to price and 
edibility. With the major exception of beer, most of the products were tasted at or near the ECHO 
office. Occasionally, however, we went afield to find conditions especially suited for certain tests 
due to the fact that one Kirksville pizza parlor does not deliver.

Testing various pizzas was hard work--over many months we exhaustively compared one pizza with 
another--but it has helped us judge comprehensively the high and low points of the most popular food 
of the students at the University.

This study was made for those of you who found yourself with an unbearable case of the munchies 
while unrelentlessly studying all night exams.

Our rating stystem was based on the International Rolaids Measuring Method which correlates the 
number of Rolaids with the quality of pizza, service and atmosphere in the establishment that was 
surveyed.

By Brenda Jenkins

It was something you would have liked to have been able to survive without. It was something people 
dreamed of inheriting and even earning! Unfortunately to a college student MONEY was that something 
that was always flowing out.

Student bank accounts in August may have been solid with hard-earned, penny-pinched summer job bread, 
but no matter how stringent the budget, usually by December it was "find a job time" for many low-funded 
students.

Students and money went together like a Big Mac and fries. Many collegians learned all too quickly that 
going to college meant spending money. This spending not only occurred at registration, but entailed 
purchasing books, supplies, clothes, personal needs, various dues, contributions and food. Shocking was 
the fact that many students didn’t know what a budget was--Ma and Pa had supplied the toothpaste and all 
laundry needs for 20 years.

After the general school-related materials were purchased, one would have thought trips to the bookstore 
would cease. However, over $650 was spent per day at the campus bookstore for items ranging from stationery 
to candy.

Clothing was an essential part of campus life—not just jeans and shirts, but appropriate clothing for dances, 
dates, picnics, hikes and parties. Guys as well as girls had been known to make that special trip to the square 
for a certain outfit.

Writing rubber checks was not an unheard of aspect in college-town USA, as students continually hoped that Ma 
and Pa would remember to deposit some more greenbacks soon.

Personal needs didn’t vary

between off-and on-campus students after rent was extracted. These needs included toiletries, 
gas, midnight sodas and candy, pizza and liquor. Spur of the moment trips to Pancake City, McDonald's,
Lisa's, DQ and Super-America, along with uncontrollable Taco Tico binges resulted in output of dough,
and input of grub. That warm, satisfying feeling that followed a pork-down session was often 
disrupted by a glance at the checkbook balance.

Perhaps a peek at a college man's Friday schedule of things to do would exemplify many students' 
money situation. Things to do Friday:

1) breakfast in the cafeteria
2) classes
3) Blue Moon lunch
4) laundry
5) afternoon BYOB
6) cafeteria supper
7) date (!)
8) midnight snack

This student's budget could probably stand improvement, but it is an overall look at where some 
money went. To be fair, a sneak-peek at a college woman's financial schedule the day before her 
annual formal would be in order.

Today:
1) classes
2) laundry
3) get refreshments
4) pick up dry cleaning
5) Taco Tico with girls
6) bookstore for cards
7) fill car with gas
8) date's flower
9) dinner in the cafeteria

Needless to explain, this woman either had help from Ma and Pa, worked, or robbed banks. Speaking 
of robbing banks--there were days when it didn't sound like a bad idea.

One student commented, "It's really bad when you can't even afford to buy a box of Girl Scout 
cookies, or a Coke in the Union.

Facts were facts. Stretching dollars at college this year wasn't the easiest thing to do in the 
world. The value of a dollar didn't seem to be that much to students. Many times it failed to 
stretch; thus, students learned it payed to squeak when they walked.

Old Faithful

As a beautiful white spray shot out over the mall, students scurried into the SUB to avoid its 
bitter stinging cold. The wind was gusting again and the tiny drops of water it carried stung the 
already frozen faces.

This was a typical scene in late October and early November as temperatures dropped, but the 
fountain continued to spurt upward. The chilly waters remained on till Parents' Day, allowing family 
and friends to see its beauty and possibly feel it.

But during warm weather the fountain was the campus attraction as special social events like 
evening dances were held around it. It also encouraged another favorite pastime.

For many students sitting down by the cool clear water and feeling its spray was a great way to 
cool off. Of course there were those who dipped their toes in and finally themselves, but water was
water and to them the fountain was just as refreshing as the natatorium and not so far away.

Besides cooling students off, the new fountain also allowed them to relieve their hostilities. 
Soap suds came first, cleansing the mall and several students. What was next? That was to be left up 
to other ingenious students.

Absolute Zero

by Brenda Whitebread

Heaters banged, cars stalled and Jack Frost painted his patterns on the inside of windows as 
sub-zero weather took its toll this winter.

Temperatures fell consistently as new record lows were set on January 9, 16, 17, and 28. The 
temperatures ranged from -9 to -19 degrees Fahrenheit.

Besides new temperature records, other unique records were established. Alaska had to close 
schools because the weather was too warm causing flooding. Meanwhile, Miami, Fla. had its first 
snow with one inch falling and Chicago, Ill. experienced its coldest month in history during 
January.

In Indiana, police delivered groceries and medical supplies to stranded families while in Kansas 
City motorists were advised to carry blankets in their cars to prevent freezing to death in case 
they became stranded. Car travel was forbidden in several states.

Nationwide, many schools closed because of fuel shortages while businesses and other factories 
shut down, leaving over two-million people without jobs.

The University kept with the nation's trend as campus fuel supplies fell to a three-day supply and 
thermostats were turned down to 65 degrees in compliance with President Jimmy Carter's request.

Also, Safety and Security refused to jump cars or loan students jumper cables, because of the 
tremendous increase of stalled cars.

And as usual, campus sidewalks became sheets of ice making journeys to class a treacherous 
experience.

But winter wasn't all bleak and cold as the morn of Dec. 27 had a record high of 56 degrees 
reminding students that--yes, there is a sun and yes, it does have heat.

For Only One Dollar...

For only one dollar you can get this genuine, cure-all elixer, brothers and sisters!"

It may not have been a genuine, cure-all you were looking for when you sought medical attention 
at the Student Health Clinic, but whatever the diagnosis, it still cost a dollar.

"This new rate replacing the waived fee at the clinic was initiated for the purpose of being 
recycled into a general operating fund," said Dr. John Biggerstaff, director of the clinic. The 
clinic operated on a budget of $250,000.

A nationwide study conducted by Oregon State University revealed that the university was one of 
the few educational institutions who still supplied free medical aid. The study also revealed that 
colleges and universities require cost of medicine or lab tests plus office fees.

Compared to last year's statistics of 100 to 200 students per day at the clinic, this year 
averaged 70 to 80 students per day.

Ailments most common were weather-related illnesses such as upper respiratory infections and 
mononucleosis.

Efficiency and aid were two goals of the clinic as they provided treatment for all the little 
aches and pains.

Getting Into Full Swing

This is KNEU, 580 AM, beginning another day of broadcasting. Good Morning!"

Good Morning? Morning?

As KNEU continued its second year of service, students living in the residence halls plus Fair 
and Campbell apartments could listen to their campus station in the morning as well as the afternoon 
and evening. Air time had expanded to 73 hours per week.

The station, under the new management of Emmett Vaughn, produced a variety of specialized programs
including "Trivia Night," "Roll Call," "Jazz Night" and "Side Show." Newscasters were also more 
extensive.

The goal of KNEU during the year was to get the campus better acquainted with the station. Several 
techniques were used to achieve this goal, including giving away pizzas, theatre tickets and T-shirts.
During Halloween a trick-or-treat man visited the halls and gave candy and prizes to students who 
complied with KNEU's requests. These items ranged from stuffed animals to red earrings.

Many of the prizes awarded were given to the station by Kirksville merchants in exchange for free 
adverti-sing."Students responded well to the programs. Attitudes were more positive and overall, 
students seemed to react positively to the broadcasts," Emmett Vaughn, manager, said.

KNEU was advised by Tom Draper and was funded by the University.

Extra! Extra! Read all about it! And students did every Thursday afternoon as the INDEX was 
delivered throughout campus.

The INDEX had several changes this year. It expanded from an average of 14 pages to 20, the amount 
of advertisements nearly doubled, and 1,000 more papers were distributed weekly for a larger reading 
public. Also staff members had a new advisor, Terry Vander Heyden.

In November, several members attended the Associated Collegiate Press Conference in Chicago. At 
the meeting, new ideas in the area of journalism were discussed by various professors and 
professional journalists, many from the CHICAGO TRIBUNE. Also students were able to exchange ideas 
with other students from across the nation.

Maintaining an organized staff was one area emphasized by the INDEX as more work came with more 
pages. Editors for the paper were Deb Strehle, fall '76, and Rodger Zucchi, spring '77. The INDEX 
staff involved a variety of students, as many workers held majors other than mass communications.

Editorial coverage this year included debate fund, concerts, journalism censorship, extended lounge
hours, unequal state funding of universities and homecoming queens.

The INDEX was printed offset by the Chronical-Herald Publishing Company, Macon. All other work was 
done by students.

The paper received a first-class publication award from the Associated Collegiate Press.

Home Away From Home!

A faint orange glow shone through the east window of the Hardman Building as members of the 
'77 ECHO staff worked diligently to finish those last few pages before deadline. For ECHO members,
this was a typical scene before every deadline.

With only four experienced students returning, the staff was composed generally of new members 
including a new advisor, Terry Vander Heyden. The goal was to achieve as many honors as the ECHO 
'76 and work toward the "Trendsetter Award."

ECHO '76 had won four distinctions from the Associated Collegiate Press in the areas of copy, 
layout design, coverage and concept. Also the Columbia Scholastic Press Association had judged the
book to be a "Medalist" which is the highest award given to a yearbook. The award is 
characterized by personality, spirit and creative excellence.

Several staff members attended yearbook workshops. These workshops at Athens, Ohio, and 
Chicago, Ill. were held in August and November, respectively. Members sought new ideas and 
sugggestions for improving the ECHO.

Some of these ideas used were new layout designs in various sections like activities and 
organizations, plus a more extensive coverage of campus life including foreign students, senior 
citizens and commuters. Also, 16 pages were added to the book.

Ford Didn't Have

Cancel his usual order. He says he's out of the mood for peanuts.

The 1976 election was filled with election firsts as Gerald Ford became the first chief 
executive voted out of office since Herbert Hoover. Jimmy Carter successfully completed his 
two-year goal for the presidency as he became the first deep southerner to be elected President 
of the United States in 128 years. Jimmy Carter carried 24 states and won 297 electoral votes 
while Gerald Ford won 27 states but only 241 electoral votes. A record number of voters turned 
out.

This was the first presidential election in history to be publicly financed.

The voters were given an opportunity to acquaint themselves with the issues as three debates 
were televised. This was the first time in sixteen years to feature candidate debates. But even 
more importantly, it was the first time in which an incumbent agreed to face an opponent in 
unrehearsed confrontations.

The Senate and House of Representative elections were also filled with firsts. Not since the 
New Deal has the Senate been so transformed as eight incumbents retired and nine senators lost
their seats.

In Missouri, Republican John Danforth defeated former governor Warren Hearnes, the Democratic 
nominee, after the death of Rep. Jerry Litton in a plane crash.

field. These victories did not significantly increase the number of Republicans in the House 
of Representatives as there remained 290 Democrats to 140 Republicans.

A major upset occured on the state level as Joseph P. Teasdale, the Democratic candidates, 
surprised GOP incumbent Gov. Christopher S. Bond. He was joined in the executive branch by 
William Phelps, the Republican incumbent Lieutenant Governor, who defeated Richard Rabbitt.

Secretary of State and State Treasurer were both won by Democratic incumbents: James 
Kirkpatrick and James Spainhower. John Ashcroft, the Republican candidate for Attorney General, 
completed the list of cabinet members.

The second district state representative was won by Harry Hill, a Democrat.

Three amendments were also voted on during the current election. Two amendments passed, one 
proposing a twenty-year plan to expand the state's wildlife habitat areas and the other 
prohibiting electric companies from billing customers for construction work on power plants. The 
third amendment failed which would have exempted food and medicine from sales tax.

Survival
Of The Fittest

By Bill Carney

With the coming of 1976, another presidential season was upon us. The old familiar, perhaps 
even tired, names arose to try to convince the nation why each was more fit than the rest to lead 
this country to wherever it was supposed to be going. At one time or another no fewer than three 
Republicans and fourteen Democrats walked all over the country and each other in vying for the 
Great White Jail, as Missouri's own Harry Truman once called it. Added to these men were an 
assorted collection of right wingers, leftists, and other would-be presidents, which provided a 
nice variety from which to pick.

The story of Jimmy Carter's rise to power was one of the most fantastic in American political 
history. Truly an unknown nationally, Carter built, directed and won with an organization that was
impressive. Not only did he knock out almost every big gun in his party, but he beat an incumbent
President (something previously done only twice in this century), and ended George Wallace's 
dominance in the South.

If Carter can do what he said he would, this period of time will be a turning point for the 
nation. If he does not keep his promises, he may be back growing peanuts in 1981.

Besides the national campaign, other events were happening. Not the least was the Bicentennial 
celebration. From coast to coast, hundreds of people in towns and cities held parades, 
re-enactments, and dedications to the history of the United States.

Many of the festivities were moving and symbolic. On the other hand, as is usual with holidays 
and big events, commercialism was rampant, with bicentennial mugs, bicentennial furniture sales 
and other profit-seeking ventures.

The weather was something to really talk about. After an unusually dry, hot summer, much of the 
country was hit with an avalanche of snow and miserably cold temperatures; this winter has been 
called the worst since the nation was founded. Amid high heat bills and lack of fuel sources, 
President Carter attempted to fully tackle the energy crisis, which has suddenly "reappeared" 
after having been announced by President Nixon as "being over" back in 1974. Many Americans may 
finally be realizing that the energy crunch will be around for quite some time.

Sometimes it seemed that nature in general was conspiring against man. Earthquakes in Guatemala 
and Friuli, Italy claimed many lives and caused massive damage. The Teton Dam in Idaho collapsed 
and created havoc and destruction in that state. The western United States is suffering through 
the worst drought in years.

By the twenty-first Olympiad, Dorothy Hamil, Nadia Commaneci and Bruce Jenner became household 
names. Communist China prohibited Nationalist China from participating unless the latter went by 
the name of Taiwan. Millions of television observers decried the heavy-handed politics; the games 
more than ever, seemed to be close to extinction, unless the politicians stayed out. Not 
likely.

Meanwhile, Lebanon finally seemed to be over its civil war, but only time would tell. Peace in 
the Middle East seemed as remote as ever. Mexico got a new president and Spain seemed to be slowly
on the march to democracy. Britian still struggled along economically and the communist countries 
made a mockery of the Helsinki accord.

Back in this country, a man was executed for the first time in ten years. More a circus than an 
execution, the fate of Gary Gilmore attracted an international audience, literary agents and the 
press. Some people wanted the execution to be on TV, while others argued for more discreet ending 
of the convicted murderer's life. The latter prevailed.

The ERA moved along as Indiana ratified the amendment in January. However in the spring it was 
defeated in Missouri.

Corruption did not end with Watergate. Several Congressmen were implicated in payoffs from 
South Korean interests. More interestingly, there was a sex scandal in Washington, D.C. leading to
the abrupt retirement of one Congressman and tarnished reputations for a few others.

As 1977 moves onward in new directions, the nation will be waiting to see how well the peanut 
farmer from Georgia does in the job to which he was elected. Whether the country will overcome 
inflation, unemployment, and a variety of other ills that so many men running for office promised 
to eradicate, but which somehow never seem to leave us, waits to be seen.

A variety of student religious centers offered a spiritual outlet for as many as 450 students. 
In addition to the Jewish Student Center, Newman Center, Wesley House and the Baptist Student 
Union (BSU), the United Campus Ministry was formed to bring members of the various faiths 
together in religious studies and seminars.

The Jewish Student Center, located on East Washington St., is a place for students of the 
Jewish faith to gather for other social and religious reasons. They offer a variety of activities 
as well as services.

Nightly activities, retreats, and special functions keep members of the Newman Center involved

Miss Kirksville

She Is Neat In Her Bibs

"I don't think I've changed. I still wear my bib overalls," Linda Henderson, senior clothing 
and textile major, said. Linda feels she really hasn't changed after winning the title of Miss 
Kirksville 1976 at the pageant held in April.

"A lot of kids said, 'Now you'll have to keep up your appearance.' Well, I'm neat in my bibs," 
she said with a laugh.

Even though the title of Miss Kirksville hasn't changed Linda's character, it has changed her 
life in some ways.

Linda finds she is busier with the appearances and functions she attends because of her duties 
as Miss Kirksville. But even with her extra duties, she still finds time for friends and is also 
active in several campus organizations. Linda is a student ambassador, a Purple Pride girl, a 
resident assistant in Blanton hall and a resident council representative.

Linda had competed in several other pageants before deciding to enter the Miss Kirksville 
contest. With some prompting from a girl friend, she decided to enter the pageant because she 
liked to compete and she liked the experience.

"Everyone goes in with the attitude to win. But, I was there more for the fun and experience, 
and I never anticipated winning until they actually announced it," Linda said.
 

(Page 215)

"I still didn't believe it until I saw it in the paper," she said with a laugh. And after 
seeing it in the paper, Linda acknowledged the fact that she had been chosen Miss Kirksville out 
of the 13 girls competing. Linda was the first black to ever enter the pageant and subsequently to
win the title of Miss Kirksville.

Linda would like to see more black students enter the contest because it would be a good 
experience for them. "I think they would have a better chance in life just by participating 
because you can sit back and say, 'I don't like this' and 'I don't like that,' but until you 
participate you don't know what it's really like," she said.

With the title of Miss Kirksville, Linda said she feels an obligation to the city and its 
people because she did win. "I think my major duties are to help out in the community in any way,"
she said. This may mean making an appearance at a picnic or a political function.

"I think she (Miss Kirksville) should be more aware of the public. Instead of giving her the 
image of a beauty queen, I think she should do more than represent the city as a beauty queen," 
Linda said.

In July, Linda had the opportunity of competing in the Miss Missouri pageant as Miss
Kirksville. She said there was a great deal of pressure because everyone was there to win. "At 
the Miss Kirksville pageant the atmosphere was more relaxed. Everybody was there to have a good 
time. Winning was on your mind, but you didn't just go after it."

Even though she didn't place in the finals, Linda did come back a winner. For the first time 
in the pageant's history, a talent award was given to a non-finalist. She won the $50 scholarship 
by singing "I Don't Know How to Love Him" from "Jesus Christ Superstar" for her talent 
presentation.

Even though she has been a winner in many things, Linda doesn't feel a title should make any 
difference in her way of life or change it in any way. "I feel that I'm Linda Henderson first and 
then I'm Miss Kirksville. I don't think it's changed me at all."

While taking a break from work, Linda browses through artifacts in the museum. (LEFT) Linda

Those Crazy Manias

by Nancy Madsen and Brenda Whitebread

"Shake Shake Shake, Shake Shake Shake, Shake your bootie, Shake your bootie!" Disco mania 
hustled its way to the dance scene as touch dancing, bus-stopping and bumping were the only ways 
to "get down." Radio waves were jammed with disco music ranging from "Disco Duck" to "Disco Lady."
Dance studios and bars were packed with young and old learning the new craze.

And in the fashion scene, hair got shorter and "winged," and dresses got longer. Ears appeared 
with the doublepierced look and legs disappeared with rolled jeans, gauchos and boots. For a more 
relaxing look, warm-up suits, painter pants, jumpsuits and bib overalls were worn along with track
shoes and hiking boots. During the bitter winter, down coats provided

warmth for those cross campus trips.

For entertainment, foosball became the big game. And for those who were brave enough, skate 
boarding became the big challenge.

Blaring out from the boob tube were familiar cries such as "Mary Hartman! Mary Hartman!" and 
"Live, It's Saturday Night!" If this didn't suit our taste there was always "Roots," "Rich Man, 
Poor Man" or "Kotter" and his ever-delinquent sweathogs.

The cinema provided viewers with a rebirth of occult movies like "The Omen" and "Exorcist II." 
Politics also hit the scene with "All the President's Men."

And as the ERA continued its struggle for ratification, comic books, television programs and 
posters gave us a powerhouse of women. These included the Bionic Woman, Wonder Woman and Farrah 
Fawcett-Majors.

The Buck Stops Here

It was early and the sun was just beginning to rise over the east horizon as President Charles 
McClain prepared to leave for his first function of the day. It was a breakfast meeting with 
students. After that it was to the office to prep for a board meeting and then lunch with the 
board. Afterwards a closed session was held and then an open one.

With board meetings finally over, the president returned to his office to finalize his material 
to be presented at the appropriations meetings in Jefferson City. Dinner was squeezed in 
somewhere before the trip to the state capitol. At 8 p.m. the president testified for the 
University's needed appropriations. Finally at 10 p.m. his testimony was completed and he 
listened to over universities' requests till 1 a.m. Then it was back to Kirksville and around 
4 a.m. he finally went to bed only to know in a few short hours he would be having more 
appointments and meetings to attend.

So what did President McClain say about his job?

"It's fun and I have no complaints. It is a challenge to keep in focus the important 
priorities of the University and to decide what needs to be done. It is a challenge to make sure 
all functions are moving in an orderly scheduled manner."

President McClain has seen a change in students' attitudes in the last few years. He felt more 
and more students were here for a "serious education and not here just to be here." He felt that 
students as well as the alumni showed a tremendous response to various campus activities. One 
special event was the damp but exciting Homecoming.

The president felt that the University had a tremendous asset in its history and tradition. 
Every year students have graduated who proved themselves in society. He also recognized that 
alumni are proud of the University.

"Our graduates always seem to have several job opportunities open to them. They have a 
reputation of being confident and poised," he said.

President McClain hoped that in the future the University will be able to keep track of its 
alumni in the best possible sense.

"Personal development is crucial to higher education," he said. He also has plans for continued 
attention to the recruitment program, the development of more internships and placement 
opportunities, plus escalating the efforts in the funding level.

President McClain was proud of the University's accomplishments as they improved their library 
collection,

reduced cost of administration without decreasing its service to students, continued to 
acquire distinguished faculty members and completed several physical improvements. "Overall the 
unification of the campus was consistent with the master plan," he said.

President McClain felt one aspect most people don't consider is how accountable he is to all 
actions of the University. He explained that he is always accountable to the Board of Regents, 
General Assembly and the Coordinating Board for Higher Education.

"I must always explain what happened and why even though the concept on activity maybe escapes 
my attention. However, I always try to have a working knowledge of the University's activities,
another definite challenge," he concluded.

Board of Regents

The Board of Regents established the first distinguished chair in the history of the University 
which brought a distinguished scholar to the University. The chair, which was established in the 
names of Dr. John D. Black and the late Dr. Wray M. Rieger, was awarded to Dr. Ollin J. Drennan,
professor of physics and natural science.

The board implemented two new scholarships. Twenty-five fee scholarships will be awarded to 
children of the alumni. They also authorized the awarding of 40 enrollment-fee scholarships to 
participants in the women's intercollegiate athletic program. These were the first women's 
athletic scholarships in history.

The operating budget for the 1976-1977 fiscal year was approved at $12.1 million. For 
instruction and its support, $9.5 million was allocated for research and services to assist 
students.

In construction matters, renovations were approved for the Child Development Center, Bulldog 
Kennels, parking lots and sidewalk construction. Approval was also granted to the renovation of 
the residence halls and the Student Union. This included repainting, recarpeting, refurnishing 
and repairing sections of Dobson and Ryle halls.

In other actions the board increased the rent of married student housing to help offset 
inflation. The increase affected the University's Campbell and Fair apartments.

The members of the board were William O. Lee, president; William R. Quinn, vice-president; Sam 
Burk, secretary; Marilyn Beck, Caroline Funk and F. William Kasmann.

Involvement Counts

'Appropriations are necessary for the University to continue to grow.'

The biggest joy I get is to see students involved in activities. When I see them enjoying 
themselves it makes appearing before the appropriations committee all worth it," said Vice-
president Dale Schatz.

The vice-president's duties involved participating in a state-wide planning project. He also 
represented the University before various state agencies as well as developed guidelines for the 
legislation and appropriations of funds.

The appropriating of funds was one of the major problems endured this year. The most memorable 
experience by Schatz was "when President McClain appeared before the Coordinating Board for Higher
Education and the Senate Appropriations Committee and was able to get an increase in the funds 
for the University."

Adequate funding for the University and programs was the major priority. The state level had to 
be informed so that the University's future would be secure.

He stressed the importance of education and said, "Appropriations are necessary for the 
University to continue to grow."

Schatz saw "the largest change in the activities at the division level." This change was the 
result of the changes made in the curriculum and the new programs offered.

Vice-president Schatz felt that the University would remain fairly stable at 5000 students. He 
said, "There would be an increasing emphasis on quality. Excellence must be a goal. It is a 
serious objective that must be achieved. Funding is the critical issue in achieving this 
goal."

Administration: The Deans

Darrell Krueger: Dean of Instruction

Evaluating budgets, approving curriculum and helping faculty achieve their various goals were 
some of the duties of Dr. Darrell Krueger, dean of instruction.

Dean Krueger was responsible for all academic division and library faculty. He also was there 
to serve the students.

"It is important to follow the students' activities through campus and career observations. A 
student who becomes successful will reflect on the University," he said.

Dean Krueger emphasized the recruitment program as well as faculty organization and their 
advisement to students in the non-academic areas. He said that the emphasis had successful 
results as the admissions had more applications than ever before and the faculty was more 
involved in student life and public service.

Four M.A. degrees were redefined and a variety of new programs were offered and others were 
planned for the forthcoming year.

"Instructional emphasis was put on various new areas of concentrations such as public 
administration and social work. We also developed means for students to receive added practical 
job experience," he explained.

Other areas emphasized were placements, organizations and a better contact system with 
alumni.

One major task Dean Krueger completed was the hiring of a new division head for the Business 
Division. He also filled a number of instructor positions.

"Filling these positions was a time-consuming task. I was on the road last spring three days 
a week," he said.

Other tasks completed were in the construction and vocational areas.

Dean Krueger noted that students were more involved in more areas of campus life. He felt that 
the student body was "exceptional in its diligence." He felt this attitude would continue to 
grow as new programs and better counseling were developed.

Terry Smith: Dean of Students
 
"There has been a definite increase in student involvement this year. The growth involved not 
only the intellectual and educational aspects but it was a rounding out through other experiences 
like residence hall living and participation in organizations," said Dr. Terry Smith, dean of 
students.

Dean Smith, who completed his second year as dean, believed the campus had several noticeable 
changes. He felt one major change occurred in the residence halls. "The organizational movement 
has created good effects and a spillover into other organizations on campus."

He also felt students were more serious but in a positive manner. "Students are more dedicated 
and realize they have a purpose," he said.

Dean Smith said several important activities on campus were the Homecoming parade, the 
Milwaukee Ballet and the basketball game where the Bulldogs defeated the number-one ranked team, 
the University of Wisconsin at Green Bay.

Dean Smith hoped that in the future the influence of his office and its functions would have 
greater impact upon student relations.

"It is necessary to mobilize efforts and assist students so they may stay, in school," he 
said.

He felt that many reasons were responsible for the student dropout rate. These were financial, 
personal and academic problems. Since he supervised these areas he wanted to assert help in all
ways possible. He would like the students to be aware of all possibilities--to know their goals 
if they plan to drop.

Dean Smith felt that one aspect the University always maintained was a personable attitude.

"Students need to feel this personable attitute. It is an important aspect which has been 
maintained even though the University has doubled and tripled in size."

Dean Smith sees a continuation of this pattern along with stronger emphasis on programatic 
excellence. Dean Smith said, "Through increased cooperation in all areas of campus life, the 
University, I feel, will be able to help develop the student's personal growth as well as his 
academic growth.


(Page 227)

Ray Klingsmith: Dean of Administration

"The University had an ideal student body this year. They were very astute and knew what they 
wanted. They illustrated proper organized methods in changing various campus policies," Dr. Ray 
Klinginsmith, dean of administration, said.

Dr. Ray Klinginsmith, who is in charge of the various department heads and of coordinating 
their activities in the University structure, had several major priorities this year. He was 
involved in assisting the president in funding for higher education.

"This was a difficult area as there was an adverse effect on the coordinating board this past 
year. Thus members for higher education tried to reestablish a good rapport with the board," he 
said.

Dean Klingingsmith said the board should have analyzed each state school since only nine exist. 
He realized that a better communication system would be needed to restore confidence with 
legislators.

Dean Klinginsmith felt students enjoyed campus life more this year than ever before. Several 
changes could have led to this attitude. Besides having a quality education, renovation and the 
new physical facilities, such as the mall, parking lots and natatorium, were available for 
student use.

Homecoming, Parent's Day and opening day were the dean's most remembered events this year. He 
felt the events were effective since alumni and family could visit with faculty, administration 
and students.

Dean Klinginsmith planned to continue his work with the coordinating board. "Since there is a 
new chairperson, I will hopefully influence him to make the 'right decision' for higher 
education. This is critical to our system," he said.

Dean Klinginsmith was proud that the University continued its open door policy. He wanted the 
students to know they could visit any administrator, faculty or staff at almost any time.

The dean felt the campus had an outstanding administration, faculty and student body. He 
recognized there was a continued concern of faculty for students and their affairs.

"I hope in the future we will be able to hold this continuing level of achievement. That in 
itself will be a tremendous accomplishment. Improvement is essential to a university and ours 
will be a continual process," he said.

Lydia Inman: Dean of Graduate Studies

Working with graduate students from the time of admission to the point of determining whether 
or not they have met requirements was a major job of Dr. Lydia Inman, dean of graduate 
studies.

"I suppose you could call my office a clearing house or check point for candidacy."

Dean Inman worked with the graduate council and also reviewed the standards set up in the 
programs. If changes were needed, several steps had to be taken. First the council had to 
approve, then the faculty senate and finally the administration.

"Changing programs is not a snap decision. The changes are always well-thought ones!" she 
explained.

Major changes this year included the enlargement of three M.A. degrees in the. division of 
math, English and social science. This was a very time consuming action. Also the master of 
science in biology degree was added. The classes leading to the degree were not new. However, 
they were reorientated for the program change, a for the program change.

Dean Inman said there has been continual progression in student recruitment and the development 
of quality programs. This was due to a strong committment by the administration, faculty and 
students.

She also noted that there was a larger amount of graduate students from a variety of 
institutions. "The graduates who were accepted in our program this year were very committed and 
concerned. Many took unusually heavy loads," she said.

Besides accepting graduate students, recruiting qualified graduate assistants was of major 
concern. She explained that, "A strong graduate program was important to campus academics."

Dean Inman investigated different graduate programs and reviewed them to see if any 
improvements were needed.

She felt that through quality programs, streamlined expenses, recruitment of fine students and 
an innovated faculty aware of students needs, the University would have continued successful 
progression.

Dean Inman said, "It's important to have a good physical plant, but you can't have a great 
University without a great faculty or fine students. It's too difficult to separate the two."

As a member of the Bicentennial Committee, Dean Inman was actively involved with the 
University's Bicentennial tributes. She felt William Unger's mural was the highlight of the 
tributes. However, she was also greatly impressed by the attitudes of the students.

Business

The Money Changers

The Business Division had many new additions to its staff. New instructors were Ryan Anderson 
and CPA's Sandra Ligon, Jeffrey Romine, John Schleich, Arlette Wilson, Clyde Burch, Chris Raines 
and David Gruennert, who recently had a case study published by the "Intercollegiate Case Clearing
House."

A new management assistance program was Small Business Practicum, developed as part of small 
business administration. The course provided business organizations with personal counseling.

Another new class was Human Relations and Management. The course was offered on the graduate 
level.

Many seminars and workshops were held on campus for interested faculty and business students. 
In the spring an "academic" festival was held with the Business Division helping in the 
accounting, typing and shorthand areas.

A two-day seminar for faculty members and high school teachers of the surrounding area was 
sponsored by IBM. The seminar concentrated on word processing.

The Small Business Administration (SBA) sponsored a workshop this fall on how to start and 
run your own business. Investments, stocks, and bonds were discussed at the workshop sponsored by 
the University and B.C. Christopher and Co., a brokerage from Kansas City.

Several campus organizations were business oriented. They were Business Administration Club, 
Phi Beta Lambda, Accounting Club, Pi Omega Pi and Zeta Beta.

The division has tried to place more emphasis on student counseling in career choice and 
occupational information. Courses were planned to meet these aspects of business.

Education

Teacher, Teacher!

It is your first year of teaching and you generally feel lost . . . almost lonely. You wish 
you could confer with a fellow first-year teacher. But where?

Through services of the Education Division, new teachers who have graduated from the University 
could attend meetings to discuss various problems and needs they were having.

Dr. Gordon Richardson, division head, explained that the programs were established to aid the 
teachers with solutions to their problems and to motivate them in the right direction.

Another service area was the formation of an Elementary Education Club for all elementary 
education majors.

Two new faculty members joined the staff. They were Dr. John Ross, associate professor from 
memphis, and Dr. Joe Underwood of Lee's Summit.

In August the division had its first two graduates of the education specialist degree. The 
division continued work on the expansion of the degree throughout the year.

Besides publishing various articles, several faculty members attended workshops and seminars 
during the year. Dr. Viola Martin was appointed to a study group by the Commission of Higher 
Education. Dr. Elizabeth Frazier attended a seminar by the International Reading Association for 
Supervision and Curriculum Development. Andy Skinta gave various lectures and presentations to 
teachers' meetings throughout the area including a media and education program to Webster Groves 
High School and a "Clinical Teaching Experiences" program to the Association of Teacher Education 
District meeting in Warrensburg.

Also a variety of guest speakers including area principals and teachers visited the division 
and spoke on education related topics to methods classes.

Fine Arts

Portrait Of A Song

The Milwaukee Ballet came to campus during November and worked with the art, music, dance and 
theatre students. They provided lectures on dance, workshops and films as well as giving two 
performances.

Leona Suppan-Gebrich, a well-known concert pianist, also performed a recital on campus during
October. She had performed in Europe, Mexico and the United States before accepting a position 
of artist-in-residence from Quincy College.

Holding master classes for brass, string, woodwind and percussion students were some of the 
activities sponsored by the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra when they came in October. Symphony 
players conducted instrumental clinics and lecture demonstrations where several students were 
coached on general techniques of various instruments. A joint rehearsal with the St. Louis 
Symphony was also provided.

Robert J. Evans, a former student and the Curator of Art at the Illinois State Museum, was 
featured at the Fifth Annual Art Alumni Exhibition. A slide lecture featured his works and views 
of the exhibits of the Illinois State Museum.

The Fine Arts Division also sponsored several cultural events. One such event was the Trumpet 
Workshop sponsored by the Midwest Trumpet Guild. Cat Anderson, the former lead trumpet with the 
Duke Ellington Orchestra, and Allan Dean were the clinicians. Various recitals were provided.
 

(Page 231)

As well as having provided for cultural events for students, the Fine Arts Division instituted 
a new commercial art program. It also developed internships for several of the various 
programs.

Kevin Laird, temporary graduate assistant on percussion, and Janice Saffir, instructor of 
piano, were the two new faculty members.

Winning honors were Dr. Ed MacEndarfer and Helen Babbitt. Dr. MacEndarer was elected Missouri 
State Representative to the North Central Region of the American Crafts Council. Helen Babbitt 
received the Best Show Award at the Red Barn Arts and Crafts Festival for the second year in a 
row.

A water color workshop was conducted by Dr. Mary Bell Martin in Kansas City during August. The 
workshop was held for the Greater Kansas City Art Association.

At the annual meeting of the International Society for Music Education meeting in Hannover, 
West Germany, Dr. Dale A. Jorgenson presented a paper. He visited the Dartington School of the 
Arts in Devon, England to evaluate students in the summer program and to study the possibility of 
negotiating for possible future programs.

William Unger's mural on the wall outside the Student Activities Room in the Student Union is 
one of the highlights of the Fine Arts Division. It represents the history of America by Thomas 
Hart Benton. William Unger received world wide recognition for his mural. The Austrian 
Information Service declared that it was a famous Austrian American achievement.

The biggest change in the Fine Arts Division was the renovation of Baldwin Hall. One major 
improvement was the enlargement of the practice rooms. They were fully carpeted and made 
soundproof. Even though the renovation was not yet finished, it has been an asset to both the 
student and the faculty as it served as an aesthetic value.

Physical Education

Something To Sweat About

Water skiing, cycling, water safety, and intermediate horseback riding as gym classes? These 
were a few of the sixteen new innovative classes offered by the Health and Physical Education 
Division.

Along with the new classes, six new instructors were hired: Mary J. Murray, Ralph Manning, 
Gail Ethridge, Dan Sullivan, Chris Keffe, and Jamie Holmes.

Many awards were won by the physical education staff. Mary Farwell was honored in the "Who's 
Who Among Women in Education." Dr. Charles Fast was elected to the chairperson position for the 
health education section and president-elect to the Northeast Missouri Chapter of the American 
Association of University Professors. He was also selected and listed in "Community Leaders and 
Noteworthy Americans for 1976-77."

Numerous positions were held by members of the staff. Jo Ann Weekley was the tournament 
director for the 1975-1976 Girls' State Basketball Tournament. Jane and John Bartling led a 
workshop on Developmental Activities in the Elementary School. The activities developed the area 
of creative movement, rhythms, language development and math.

Fontaine Piper led a workshop at the Lake of the Ozark. Dr. Sam Nugent was trainer for the 
Thousand Hills Basketball Camp during the summer.

Dr. William Richerson had the history of football published in the "Encyclopedia of Physical 
Education 1977." Dr. Max Cogan, Mary Jo Murray and Dr. Charles Fast also had books and articles 
published about differing aspects of physical education.

This fall a modern dance group presented a jazz and country program in celebration of the 
Bicentennial. The group was directed by Regina Lindhorst who has directed a performance in 
Kansas City during the Missouri Association of Health, Physical Education and Recreation.

The health and physical education program has been very active in recruitment. The division as 
a whole served as a consultant to various high schools. H. A. Walmsely was the chairman of the 
recruiting committee.

Home Economics

It's More Than Just Cookies

Missouri Home Economics Association, with assistance from Illinois, Nebraska, Iowa and 
Minnesota, brought home economist Mrs. Stella Ombwara to campus. Ombwara, who received her B.A. 
in Oregon and M.A. in Iowa, was from Kenya.

She spoke to students in the Home Economics Division not only from here but also from 
surrounding areas. Her lectures involved discussions about Kenya's home economics program.

One interesting aspect was how Kenyan girls learn eight different ways to cook. These methods 
range from the primitive three sticks to the modern microwave ovens.

The Student Home Economics Association with the Kirksville Future Homemakers of America brought 
James Weinstine from General Electrics to talk about new appliances and careers available to the 
home economic students.

A new course in interior decoration for the home was offered. The only drawback about the class 
was that since there were no electives in home economics it had to be taken on the student's own 
time.

The class that has been taught the longest on campus had some changes. The needlepoint class 
was taught by team-teaching method. Three teachers undertook the nightclass program. A variety of 
needlepoint techniques were stressed.

Plans were worked on for a new gerontology class. A careers seminar was also planned for all 
students in the home economics field.

Dr. Charlotte Revelle and Dr. Lydia Inman attended the International Federation of Home 
Economists in Ottawa, Canada. Fifty-three countries were represented at the seminar. Discussion 
of the world food problem was a major topic. Also discussed were various problems that effect 
the home in the various countries.

The most noticeable change in the division was the remodeling of the porches at the child 
development lab. The construction expanded the play space so it could be used in bad weather.

The Dairy Council of Greater Kansas City presented the "Award of Merit" to Dr. Inman for her 
indepth teaching of nutrition. She held various nutrition seminars for teachers of kindergarten 
through sixth grade.

Rose Snite, representative of District A in the Missouri Home Economics Association, was also 
honored as the Outstanding Home Economist because of her tributes to the profession.

Bulletin boards provide divisions various places for as the notices. (ABOVE) The home 
management house provides home economists with the opportunity to "run a household."

Language and Literature

A Way With Words

Attention all persons with imaginative minds! "Windfall" needs you! Be that creative writer! 
Submit your works now!

"Windfall," sponsored by the Language and literature Division, came to life as students and 
faculty contributed their various works to the new publication. The magazine compiled by students 
was under the direction of a new professor, Dr. Shirley Morehand. Dr. Morehand, who received her 
Ph.D. from the University of Massachusetts, also assumed the duties as freshman writing 
coordinator. She recently completed a textbook on writing skills.

The mass communications program became an area of high interest as more and more students 
carried majors or minors in its field.

Several professors and instructors attended various workshops including Donna Truitt, 
children's literature; and Dr. Shirley Morehand, writing. Dr. Glenda Clyde also attended an oral 
interpretation and semantics seminar in Colorado where she was guest instructor.

The theatre department presented a fine array of productions like the "Three Penny Opera," "The 
Philanthropist" and "Godspell." The speech department continued its involvement in oral 
interpretation and debate as students traveled to tournaments and festivals throughout the 
country.

The Literary Festival in April also brought four well-known writers to campus. The festival, 
which lasted three days, allowed students to discuss various elements in the professional field 
of writing.

The division also offered an M.A. in English which meant students could receive a non-teaching 
English degree with one-third of the studies outside the language and literature realm.

The writing lab also worked more closely with the study skills lab, enlarging and improving 
both.

Libraries and Museums

Shelves Of Learning

The major thrust in the library was self-improvement. They received an Improvement of 
Instruction grant from Dean Krueger to implement this progression. They also investigated other 
facilities to see what they had done. From the study, they made some modifications in instruction 
and courses. One modified course was library resources which has been put on a self-instructional
basis.

The state legislature established a new law which provided for distribution of state documents. 
Since Pickler Memorial Library is one of ten full depositories in the state, the law affected the 
University.

New to the library was an exhibit committee. It tried to tie in displays with University 
activities. Bicentennial exhibits, political cartoons, winter sports and Rogers and Hammerstein
were some of the themes. The displays were to emphasize two areas: first the library activities 
and then campus activities.

The Missouri Library Association had several workshops during the past year in which many staff 
members participated. The association has made plans to have a workshop on campus.

The library belonged to the Ohio College Library Center (OCLC) through which they did their 
cataloging and they also joined MIDLNET (Midwestern Library Network).

"We try to be service orientated," concluded George Hartje, division head.

Mathematics

Number Systems

The Math Division had a variety of changes on both the undergraduate and graduate level.

On the graduate level the program content was changed. It now offered an M.A. and an M.A. in 
Education.

The B.A. program on the undergraduate level offered three new major options. "The new program 
has placed emphasis on the actuarial program that prepares students for professional examinations 
for actuaries," said Dr. Dale Woods, division head.

The three options implemented were statistics, computer science and liberal arts.

Various seminars were held over the summer and were open to all teachers. Dr. John Erhart 
attended Burrough's training sessions in Chicago and St. Louis. In general, the seminar talked 
about computers and their program language, operation, availability and purpose.

Four math instructors went to St. Louis for the American Mathematical Society's program "A 
Short Course on Statistics," Dr. Woods also attended "A Short Course on Computers' Number 
Systems," in San Antonia, Tex.

Other seminars and workshops attended emphasized development of mathematical skills.

Besides lecturing in class, math teachers had other ways of being heard. Dr. Woods gave a paper 
"Applications of Computers and Number Theories" in Phoenix at the 15th Annual Association for 
Education Data Systems. Rebecca Eimer gave "Cube Roots on a Calculator" and Dr. Ronald Knight 
gave a paper on certain closed flows on two-manifold.

Military Science

Fort Nason

The Division of Military Science offered more students the opportunity to further their 
education by dropping the obligation which required juniors who enrolled in the $100 per month-
ROTC program to serve in the active Army after graduation. Students now had the opportunity to 
further their education upon graduation or go directly into civilian jobs related to their majors.
If the students did take advantage of the new option they were required one weekend a month to 
serve on a reserve unit. Initially they were part-time officers.

Col. Murray Williams said, "I am very glad to have this new option initiated. It gives our 
program an added flexibility, plus students who would have financial problems are given the 
opportunity to maintain their educational growth. The army needs good people in both areas, 
active or reserve, so it was not losing any leadership by presenting this policy."

Leadership opportunity was developed further as students were given new jobs within the cadet 
structure each semester. The purpose of selecting new officers was to develop various leadership 
skills in a variety of people.

New changes in the division included the addition of a new instructor, Major Don Hedgpath.

Military science courses 200 and 300 became block courses to aid the student in scheduling.

Capt. Ed Bardill published a thesis, "The Effects of Acute Ionizing Radiation on Selected Life 
Stages of the Calanoid Copepod Diaplomus Clavipes Schacht," in the "Radiation Research 
Journal."

Other activities of the division included sponsorship of a variety of organizations ranging 
Spartan Club to the Wargamers. The latter was a new group which met weekly and played simulated 
war games. The members recreated historical battles--often changing the factual results.

Nursing students no longer stayed within the clinic atmosphere. Those students in clinical 
practice became involved in health maintenance and promotion efforts within the community. New 
courses were also developed for R.N.'s and nursing electives for care-type nursing.

New to the department's faculty were Assistant Professor Gelene Adkins, Assistant Nursing 
Instructor Susan Jackson, Assistant Professor Jean Hallenrake, Sharon McHraham and Thalia Hsu.

Gelene Adkins was appointed as a member on the State Steering Committee for the Aging.

Another very active member of the division was Rebecca McClanahan who was advisor of the 
Student Nurses Association and Sigma Sigma Sigma sorority.

Practical Arts

Specializing In Higher Education

A two-year graphic art, animal health technology and machine tool technology program were 
several of the new two-year programs that were added to the Practical Arts Division.

Several new four-year Bachelor of Science programs were also added to the department of 
agriculture. Those included animal husbandry, wildlife, conservation, pre-veterinary medicine 
and plant science options. Thus a total of nine two-year programs and two one-year programs were 
available to students.

Three new professional personnel were appointed. Dr. Richard M. Keith, D.V.M., was named 
director to the new animal health technology program, Judy Wunder became an instructor and Lee 
Farber was added to the electricity and electronics program.

Many workshops and seminars were attended by the various members of the departments. Dr. Roland 
Nagel, who attended an institute on Vocational Teacher Education at Lincoln, Neb. was a 
participant at the Mississippi Valley Industrial Teacher Educators in St. Louis and the American 
Vocational Association in Houston, Texas.

Dr. Richard Keith attended various veterinary conventions in Columbia and Cincinnati, Ohio. 
Dr. Robert L. Stephens and Tom Lundberg served on evaluative teams for different high schools. 
Dr. Stephens also served on the North Central Association teams at Parkway Central, St. Louis 
County and Ft. Osage School District. Tom Lundberg evaluated the Brookfield Area Vocational Tech 
School.

VICA skills contests and the Future Farmers of America district agriculture contest were 
sponsored by the division.

They also sponsored the Industrial Education Awards Program for junior high and high school 
industrial arts, vocational and industrial students. Two-thousand students visited the campus to
participate in the events.

Science

Sounds Of Science

A special self-study project was held by the Science Division through use of the IDEA 
evaluation services. The results revealed the need for improvements. There was a need to let high 
schools in Missouri, Illinois and Iowa know the faculty better and a need for faculty development.
The first was achieved through the publication of a "Science News Page" which was mailed to the 
various high schools and introduced the faculty. The second need was met by having various 
speakers talk to faculty and make recommendations for development. One speaker, Dr. Daniel 
Krautheim, spoke on "Reactions of Science Faculty" which related to the area of improvement in 
instruction.

A new Environmental Studies Workshop was offered to students in the spring. The course involved 
camping, canoeing and studies on the impact of man on his environment.

Several faculty members have worked on various projects this year. Dr. Donald Kangas and 
Randell Crawford received a grant of $31,645 from the United States Department of Agriculture to 
study relations between various paramiters and the suitability of water for management purposes. 
Dr. Kangas and Crawford, along with Dr. James Shaddy, Dr. David Hanks and Dr. Kenneth Fountain, 
wrote major articles in science related fields.
 
Dr. Olin J. Drennan was named the Rieger-Black Distinguished Professor of Natural-Science by 
the Board of Regents.

Denman Evans, assistant professor of science, was on KIRX's Area Scene and discussed the 
contents of an energy-environment workshop he had presented throughout Northeast Missouri. Evans 
had an analog computer programmed to simulate energy environment problems. He reviewed the 
machine at a Citizen's Workshop Training Session in Richland, Washington.

Two new instructors joined the faculty this year: Dr. George Schulte, assistant professor of 
physiology; and Dr. Russell Baughman, temporary professor of chemistry.

Social Science

Mapping The Events...

Additional classes in social work, and a career oriented master's degree with options ranging 
from community school programs, gerontology and human resource management were the changes being 
developed in the Social Science Division.

Public administration was also developed as a new area of concentration with the addition of 
Dr. Ronald Coen, assistant professor of political science.

Other new instructors were Dr. John Anderson, assistant professor of political science, and 
Dr. Robert Rhodes, assistant professor of anthropology.

Others having articles published were Dr. Arnold Zuckerman, professor of history, whose article 
dealt with ventilation with the Royal Navy's ships. Sal Costa wrote a book containing case studies
on abnormal psychology. Dr. Rhodes published several articles on anthropology.

Dr. Robert Schnucker served as the consultant on cognitive mapping to various campuses as well 
as being the consultant on the autotorial teaching method.

Members of the divisions also attended many seminars where they heard speakers on philosophy, 
religion, psychology and sociology.

Providing services to local policemen was one major project of the Law Enforcement 
Division.

The division's equipment and capabilities increased as physical facilities expanded. The 
photography facilities which expanded provided more lab experience for Northeast area policemen. 
Also the library holdings doubled in the past two years.

There were more courses offered due to the increasing aspects of policework corrections. These 
courses were geared to all interests.

Various seminars were held throughout the year dealing with narcotics, juvenile and adult 
probation, and forensic serology (blood study).

Several instructors and doctors attended various seminars where they made presentations of 
papers on various areas of law enforcement. Several of those who made presentations included 
Frank Gale on the involvement of photography in law enforcement and Dr. Lewis Slay, a new 
professor, on juveniles.

Special Programs

A Very Special Program

This January a new requirement was added to Special Programs. All M.A. candidates are now 
required to take Internship in Speech Pathology-Audiology. It was a screening program in speech, 
language, and hearing. Another new course on the graduate level was Remediation of Learning 
Disabilities.

Jan. 24-25 were the dates for the visit for re-accreditation of the M.A. program in speech 
pathology by Dr. Frank R. Kleffner and Dr. David Dickson.

Some new faces could also be seen around the Special Programs department. The new staff 
included Margaret Gorman, a clinical supervisor and teacher of Speech for the Classroom Teacher, 
and Louis Rossetti who was here on an internship program. Rossetti also taught and worked in 
supervision.

Many staff personnel attended various conventions and seminars during the past year. A majority 
of the special education faculty attended the Council for Exceptional Children's annual 
convention in Atlanta, Ga. In November all speech faculty attended the annual American Speech and 
Hearing Association Convention in Houston, Texas.

Dr. Lonny Morrow and Dr. William Hall served on the Intra-State Planning Council and forums 
concerning Public Law 94-142. Faculty members also attended the White House Conference on 
Handicapped Individuals.

Special Programs faculty members were active on campus. Many were associated with Speech 
Pathology Organization and Student Council for Exceptional Children. Some faculty served as 
consultants with KCOM and KRDC.

Oral Interpreters

Theatre Of The Mind

by Brenda Whitebread

Don't be stiff! Now kids I want you to project and remember to react to the literature. 
Ok?"

As usual, a few heads nodded. "Ok! Let's try it again."

These commands and similar ones echoed throughout Nason Hall as members of Interpreters 
Theatre spent long afternoons preparing their Reader's Theatre production of "Vive la 
Difference."

Through literature ranging from "The Diary of Adam and Eve" to the "Taming of the Shrew," the 
script presented various insights into the usually stereo-typed relationships betweem men and 
women. The script was compiled and directed by Dr. Glenda Clyde who is also the group's 
sponsor.

Reader's Theatre is not like the conventional theatre. It involves little or no scenery, 
costumes, or makeup. Performers use scripts and sometimes reading stands and stools. The theatre 
is a "theatre of the mind" and demands
 

(Page 267)

a close relationship with the audience. Often the audience is asked to participate completely 
in the performance, thus destroying the conventional fourth wall.

Besides performing, Reader's Theatre members also did individual interpretations of poetry, 
prose and drama. After a 20-hour trip to Canyon, Texas, members attended the West Texas State Oral
Interpreter's Festival. This allowed members to perform and be critiqued by various professors of 
interpretation. They also heard guest interpreter, Dr. Mary Frances Hopkins of Louisiana State 
University at Baton Rouge, perform and give guest critiques.

Other festivals included a trip to Wisconsin and Kansas plus tours of Missouri high schools 
where individual interpreters worked with speech classes and performed programs.

Locally, several members performed individual readings for an area civic organization and a 
Reader's Theatre Thanksgiving production, compiled and directed by Brenda Whitebread, was 
presented to an area Boy Scout organizational meeting.

The Interpreters also held an annual spring banquet.

An open house at the rifle range, a turkey shoot and free fire times are some of the 
activities sponsored by the Black Jack Rifle and Pistol Club.

The club participated in various rifle matches in Missouri and Kansas. Sgt. Clyde Nicely is 
coach of the rifle team and Maj. Donald Hedgepath is the sponsor.

A chili supper was held as a money-making project.

Traveling to Vermillion, South Dakota, the Panther's Drill Team competed in various infantry 
drill categories. Henry Laughlin placed sixth in individual competition.

The Panthers, whose sponsor is Sgt. Maj. Arthur Riddle, performed in the Homecoming and
Marceline parades. They also held demonstrations for the Activities Fair and Centerville Pancake 
Day.

On Veteran's Day, the unit presented a special flag ceremony. Also, at every home football 
game, they provided the color guard.

Members of the Outing Society made various expeditions including a rapelling trip to Columbia 
and a camping trip to the Cuivre River.

They also hiked the Moniteau Trail and the Shenandoah Trail in Virginia.

Don't Rock The Boat

Can you imagine living through a weekend without all the modern conviences of life? No TV, 
telephone, running water, electricity, bathrooms, etc. The 26 members of Spartans (a club 
sponsored by the Military Science Division) who gave up such conveniences for a three-day canoe
trip down the Current River in Southern Missouri, soon found out what it was really like to rough 
it.

A school bus followed by a truck with 13 canoes was used to shuttle the group up to Cedar 
Grove. On the way everyone paired up with someone to canoe.

The canoes were launched above Aker's Ferry at a point called Cedar Grove. The group then 
floated down the river to Aker's Ferry and camped there for a night.

For some, learning to paddle and steer a canoe was more difficult than learning to drive a car. 
The inexperienced canoeists found it was quite a feat to paddle the canoe down the river for a 
few minutes without running into the bank or another canoe. And naturally, when someone thought
he was getting it mastered he would come up on a small rapid and before he knew what was happening
the canoe had completely turned around and the couple was traveling down the river backwards.

After three hours of paddling down the zigzag course of the river, Aker's Ferry finally came 
into sight. And what a welcomed sight it was for the tired canoeists. Beaching the canoes for the 
night, they attempted to set up camp before darkness fell.

After picking an appropriate site to camp, everyone went to work setting up tents, rolling out 
sleeping bags and preparing the evening meal. For many in the group it was their first 
experience in the wilderness. For them it was not an easy thing to pitch a tent or find a soft 
spot on the ground to lay their sleeping bag. It was not a surprise when darkness fell before 
they were finished with their chores. Some thought they were really roughing it, even though they 
did have access to running cold water and outhouses.

After everyone had finished eating and cleaning up, some decided to hit the sack early while 
many of the group gathered around the traditional campfire where many told their favorite joke or 
story.

It was early to rise for the group

the next morning as everyone was eager to get on the river once again and apply his newly 
acquired skill of paddling and steering. It was a good thing for the group that they had mastered
the art of steering the day before because now, besides avoiding the banks, rocks, and trees, 
they had to contend with what seemed like hundreds of other canoeists.

The Current River looked like New York City during rush hour traffic. It was like canoeing 
through an obstacle course. The penalty of making a wrong maneuver could be a sudden dip in the 
cold waters of the Current River.

As the morning passed, the canoes began to thin out farther down the river and everyone could 
begin to relax and once again enjoy the scenery and marvel at his new found skill.

The group arrived too late to camp at their scheduled place, Pulltite, so they were forced to 
camp at a site back up the river where no luxuries, not even cold running water or outhouses,
existed.

Everyone had to rough it. Since members had learned how to make camp the night before, it 
didn't take the group as long to set up camp. The atmosphere wasn't as bad as expected; however, 
there were the few good-natured complaints about the weeds and the bugs, but everyone soon 
adjusted to the unnatural environment.

A little light rain fell that evening; however, a majority of the group braved the dampness and 
once again they sat around the campfire and swapped jokes and tales.

It was another early rising for the group the next morning, as the 13 canoes were shoved off 
from the sand bar and paddled their way back to Pulltite with the ease of old pros.

It didn't take long to load all the gear, canoes and people onto the bus. The five-hour canoe 
trip from Aker's Ferry to Pulltite only took 20 minutes by bus.

With cries of "See you in Kirksville," the group began the five-hour trip back to Northern 
Missouri. Butthey really didn't seem to mind this trip because it meant going back to 
civilization--running water, electricity and bathrooms.

Other activities besides the canoe trip included a rapelling trip and several field training 
exercises.

The Spartans, sponsored by Capt. Ed Bardill, also held an orienteering meet. During the 
football season, members took turns portraying the Bulldog at the home games.

Sharing The Fun

Providing a scouting program for the mentally retarded children at the Diagnostic Clinic was a 
weekly task for members of the Student Council for Exceptional Children.

The project involved 8 to 13 students working with about 30 children. The main purpose was to 
promote the children's social, spiritual and physical skills, while also improving their emotional 
values.

The children were divided into small groups, each having a student teacher. The groups were given 
names and then separately they worked on various programs which would hopefully develop their skills. 
These projects included exercising, nature walks and improvisational acting. One special project was 
the building of rockets. A competition was later held to judge the best rocket.

Other activities have included making popcorn, baking cookies and singing songs. The children were 
urged to ask questions about others and themselves. The idea was to make them feel confident about 
communication. The teachers wanted to know whether they felt happy or sad and why.

The Knights of Columbus, a Catholic men's organization, provided SCEC with $250 to sponsor the weekly 
meetings. Dr. Jeff Mitchell was the council's sponsor.

The planning, organization and running of the meetings took a lot of time, but as Kurt Anderson, SCEC 
president, said, "We want to make them happy through a learning experience. It's very rewarding to know 
that those special smiles, cheerful laughs and shy thank yous are all sincerely for you."

Santa Didn't Forget

A special Christmas party was held for Kirksville's underprivileged children by the Vet's 
Club. It is an annual event which was started when the club began in 1968.

During the four-hour party, games were held, refreshments were enjoyed and there was even a 
special visit from Santa Claus. The presents for the children were provided by the Vet's Club and 
by individual members.

The annual Octoberfest celebration, which included a public auction and dance, raised enough 
money to sponsor the party.

Other activities included cosponsorship of the Veteran's Day ceremony. The club presented a 
bronze plaque, with the names of all former students whose lives were given in Vietnam, to 
parents of those deceased veterans. The plaque is kept on display in Pickler Memorial Library.

Where else can you find Tweety Bird, Daffy Duck, Sylvester, Porky Pig and the Roadrunner riding a 
roller-coster except on Ryle Hall's fourth north floor.

Many of the residence hall's wings were brightened up with designs including Walt Disney characters, 
different sports, W.W. II air planes and zoo animals.

Some of the murals provided unity along the wings as they corresponded with the wings' names. 40th 
Street in Missouri Hall had various street signs painted on its walls. First and second North Ryle 
has the Double Trouble women painted in their lounge.

Also in Ryle, decorating the walls were the awards won by the various floors during Sisterhood Week. 
The awards won by fifth north and second south were added last spring.

Dobson Hall didn't have murals painted on their walls, as their walls were re-painted as part of the 
renovation effort. Instead of murals, geometrical designs decorated the walls with scenes pictured on 
the lounge walls. These included a beach and a night scene.

Before any design could be painted on the wall, they had to be approved by three-fourths of the wing's 
residents. The designs were then approved by the directors of the residence halls and a list of the 
students helping were provided.

The residents were required to do all the drawing, painting and cleaning up with the university 
supplying the paint.

So, the next time you walk down the hall of a residence hall don’t be surprised if Pepe le Pew is 
smiling at you.

Boredom Zero

I realize that I am the happiest when I am the busiest. I've never done anything like this 
before. It's not a job; it's fun," said Senior Leslie Curcio, in describing her job as a wing 
activity coordinator (WAC) for first and second north in Ryle Hall.

Leslie, who likes to be called Toni, was hired as the WAC last spring. "I am in charge of 
arranging activities for my wing. It really needed to be done and my whole life has always been 
apathetical. It's something new and very exciting for me," she explained.

Toni feels that being a WAC will help her in the future since she hopes to have some type of 
managerial position and work with people. "I've never had the opportunity to have any real 
responsibility before, but my WAC job will teach me how to handle responsibility," said Toni, who 
is from Richmond Heights, a St. Louis suburb. She transferred from Forest Park Community College 
as a business administration major with a psychology minor. She transferred because she wanted to 
experience on-campus living. "While in Mexico I stayed with seven other girls who boarded away 
from home. They sounded like they had so much fun, I decided to transfer and here I am. I'm 
really glad I did. I like it here," she said.

Toni feels she is a "jack of all trades but a master of none." She enjoys trying all different 
types of sports but her favorites are tennis, swimming and waterskiing, something that she just 
learned. She also tries to run one and one-half to two miles every day, depending on the 
weather.

Toni feels her campus experience has been very rewarding and one she never will forget. "I'm 
so glad I got involved. It is so important. The more involved you are the more fun you will have. 
Two years ago graduation seemed a long way off. Now it's too soon," Toni concluded.

Making Herself At Home

It's difficult to go to a school in a foreign country," said Lalida Singshinsuk, a graduate 
student from Bangkok, Thailand. Lalida came to the United States to acquire a better 
understanding of the English language. She has learned to adapt to many new experiences, one 
being the nickname "Jet." The name was given to her because she has "jet" black hair.

Jet finds the universities very different from those in Thailand. "Thailand schools are bigger 
and offer more major choices," Jet said. "The students go to school year-round with a one month 
break, equivalent to our semester break," she added.

Jet also has discovered that students here do quite a bit more partying than Thai students. 
Jet commented, "There is very little drinking and partying in Thai. Sometimes on special 
occasions they do party but even then it is held at a minimum."

Today, Thailand is very much like America. "We listen to American songs, watch American shows
on TV; we even do American dances," Jet said. Jet finds the major differences in food. Even 
though American food is quite different from the spicy dishes in Thailand, Jet has developed a 
love for steak and McDonalds.

In the future Jet hopes to see more of America, by visiting Disney land, Niagra Falls and Los 
Angeles. She was really excited this fall when she saw snow for the first time.

But for now Jet is content with Kirksville. "I like this university; I'm so glad I'm here," 
she concluded with a smile.

Quite A Showman

The lights faded away and the curtain fell, signaling the end of another campus play. The 
audience rose and began applauding, sending a tumultuous ring throughout the theatre. Finally, 
the actors appeared on the stage and graciously accepted their just reward with smiles and 
bows.

But one actor was still acting because inside his mind he was already reviewing his night's 
work.

"After all my performances, I'm always very self-critical," said Senior Scott Smith. "I think 
it's important to be objective because it helps me to see my strong areas as well as my weak ones.
I know where I need improvement."
Scott, who received the best actor award for his performance in the Devil's Disciple, is a 
speech-theatre major from Lee's Summit. He became interested in theatre while a junior in high 
school. Since then he has been involved in numerous campus productions and during the summer 
performed at the Ice House Theatre in Hannibal.

"I really like the theatre, but it does take up a lot of time. I always wanted to get 
involved in more activities on campus, but never could because rehearsals were always 
interfering."

A daily schedule for Scott during the rehearsal of a play is: 7:30 to 4:30, classes; 7:00 
to 11:00, rehearsal and then study time.

Scott does take time out to relax. He likes to swim, play tennis and jog.

"Before each of my performances I usually go for a swim. The exercise makes me feel good and 
I can do it in a short period of time."

Scott thinks the campus theatre department is progressive. He feels the faculty is excellent 
and is glad that the technical aspects like the sound and light systems have been improved.

When not actually acting, Scott is involved in other areas of a theatre production.

"There is always the backstage work like set design, costumes and props. I also do individual 
Coaching for other actors. I wish more people would realize the hard work which goes into the 
total production. A lot of people don't get recognized for their efforts, which is 
disappointing."

Scott's future may lead to Hollywood acting or university theatre teaching, but which ever way 
it goes, one thing is for certain concerning Scott's involvement in the theatre: he will always 
enjoy it and strive for self-improvement.

Classified Information

I gained a lot of insight on the United States' world involvement. I realized the complexity in 
dealing with other nations and how proud I was of my country," said junior transfer student Mike 
Haley from Muscatine, Ia. Mike, a law enforcement major, served in the United States Army 
Intelligence division in Europe for 29 months. "I was a courier for classified documents. My 
special area was in the development and classification of documents and nuclear weapons," he said.
"I really feel my loyalty to my country was strengthened by my service," he added.

On campus, Mike has become very active. He is a member of Lambda Alpha Epsilon, Alpha Phi 
Sigma, Karate Club and is president of the Residence Hall Association.

Mike's interest in the Residence Hall Association stems from his desire to see a uniformity 
and "closeness" develop between students, but to still have an individualism. In Muscatine, Mike, 
who was a para-professional-- one who developes people's interests and goals--taught human 
relations. "I feel this training will help in the organization of interest in the college as a 
whole to make it a place to grow." he said.

Besides being involved in these campus activities, Mike enjoys scuba diving and is a student 
pilot.

Calling All Cars

It would be any policeman's dream to live in Hawaii, to have a sexy blonde for a partner and 
to have a flashy roadrunner to track down law breakers. Throw in a year's supply of lollipops, a 
parrot to discuss cases with and a horse (just in case something happens to the roadrunner) and 
it would be the policeman's dream come true.

But senior law enforcement major Dave Kling realizes that it is just a fantasy. "It would be 
nice but it just isn't true." He knows that it takes a strong dedication and long, hard hours of 
work to become a good police officer.

Dave thinks that a college education is important but he also knows there is no substitute for 
actual on-the-job training. So besides being a full-time student, he is also employed full time 
as a dispatcher for the Kirksville Police Department.

Dave accepted the job offer because it would give him the opportunity to get some actual 
experience in police work. As a dispatcher he is the go-between for all incoming and outgoing 
calls which relate what is happening in Kirksville. Dave explains, "The place wouldn't work 
without the dispatch area because it is the radio and computer center."

Though dispatching isn't the field of police work that Dave wants to go into, he thinks it has 
been of value to him. "Once I get out on the street, then I'll know how the guy on the inside 
feels and the information and so forth that it's going to take for him to do his job more 
effectively and help me in doing mine."

Dave feels most of the time a policeman's job is thankless. However, last year at the Special 
Olympics some little kids who had maybe only 25 to 50 cents to their name spent every penny in 
their pocket to buy two security officers Cokes. "It's times like these which make it well worth 
it."

Rough and Rugged

Rugby is a rough and hard fought game, but I like it because it is one of the few true sports 
around," Mark Ruggeberg, graduate assistant from DeWitt, Iowa, said.

Mark, who received a BSE in history from the university in 1973, taught junior high history 
and coached softball, track and wrestling before returning here for further studies.

"I was tired of teaching junior high history classes. My interests were turning to physical 
education studies in a higher division. I decided I wanted to get involved with city recreation 
programs or university intramural programs," Mark said.

Presently, while taking twelve graduate hours in physical education, recreation and health, 
Mark is in charge of the campus intramural program and is assistant wrestling coach. He is also 
coach, captain, president and player of the Northeast rugby team, which is his special interest. 
He likes the game because there are no pressures from scholarships and the games are played for 
enjoyment.

"After the games, the two teams get together and have a party. We get to meet lots of people 
and it is really a good time," Mark said.

Besides playing rugby, Mark was a member of a semi-professional football team in 1974. He 
enjoys tennis and in his quieter moments likes to read a good book. He is also a member of Sigma 
Tau Gamma social fraternity which he says gives him the opportunity to meet lots of people.

Although Mark tends to lead a rough and active life, he feels he is a sensitive person towards 
his surroundings.

Mark feels Northeast is a good school, though conservative. "The atmosphere on campus hasn't 
changed much since my undergraduate years except students seem to be more friendly. I think 
Northeast has a basic, conservative nature which will probably change, but it will be a slow 
change."

Batter Up!

Strike one, strike two, strike three. Another batter falls to the pitching talent of Pam 
Braungardt, junior math major from Fishhood, Ill., and member of the women's softball team. "My 
brother taught me how to play softball and I have been playing ever since. I try to play about 
nine months out of the year," Pam said.

Pam has made the women's softball team for two years as a pitcher and a third baseman but she 
has been unable to play a whole season. "My freshman year I was hit twice in the head during the 
same game and thus I was out for three weeks. I sprained my ankle three days before the opening 
game and was out again for three weeks. All I want to do is play the whole season," Pam added.

Pam is involved in many campus activities. She is president of Alpha Phi Sigma and a member of 
WRA and Kappa Mu Epilson.

Short and Sweet

When people first meet me, I'm always the 'standing joke,' " laughs sophomore Suzanne Brake. 
"I'm usually always getting comments like, 'Hey, Suzie, why don't you stand up?', 'How's the 
weather down there?', or 'Have you seen Suzie?' "Suzanne, who towers at 4' 11", is a sociology 
and psychology major from Bowling Green. She has gotten used to the fact that she is not going to 
grow anymore since she has been 4' 11" for six years.

"The advantage of being short outweighs the disadvantages. I've now got a car that I can reach 
the pedals in. In Driver's Education they had to put books behind me and under me," Suzanne 
said.

Being short doesn't stop Suzanne's desire to get involved. She is a 1975 Pershing Scholar, a 
student ambassador, NEMO singer, rhythmette and a member of the Baptist Student Union.

Prolific Painter

After teaching for 35 years as professor and chairman of the Department of Microbiology at 
KCOM, Dr. Carl Umanzio has reversed his lifestyle and is now a student living in Missouri 
Hall.

"After I retired it accured to me to get into some other activity. I like to be involved," he
explained.

One of Umanzio's major interests is oil painting. He has completed over 200 paintings which 
are kept in a private collection. He does not paint for commercial purposes, but feels "one 
should paint for himself. There is a sentimental attachment to a painting."

Umanzio, who is enrolled in two art classes, also is taking a Spanish course because he hopes 
to travel to Mexico and Spain. "I love to travel," he said. "During the summer I go to the East 
Coast from Massachusetts to Nova Scotia. The coast is always beautiful and very enjoyable. When 
I visit this area, I feel it is a part of me I live the coast and I live the sea," he 
explained.

Willpower Is The Key

The refrigerator in 217 Blanton is well-stocked with fresh fruit, diet soda, specially-made 
salad dressing and gelatin. There is also a good supply of Weight Watcher's sugar and iced tea, 
as well as "an emergency kit of tuna and bouillon soup." Marian Jo Gilbo, the consumer of all 
these diet products, has been a faithful member of the Weight Watchers organization since May 4,
1976. To date she has lost 73 3/4 pounds.

"As she munches on her apple, and pulls up an old pair of shorts that are now far too loose 
for her, Marian explains why she has stuck with Weight Watchers for so long. "It's the best diet 
I've ever been on. I never seem to be hungry."

Although seeing other girls enjoying pizza and popcorn at night is discouraging, Marian 
retains her willpower.

Along with being secretary of the Blanton Hall Council and a member of Sigma Alpha Iota, a 
professional women's music fraternity, Marion will add another credit to her name in May.

"I'm going to be beautiful...and have all the men chasing me around, beating down the 
door."

Getting Ahead

There are people in this world who are collecters. They gather anything from pennies to old 
paintings. Here at Northeast, junior Jay Evans collects skulls. Why? Because it is different, 
Jay got started one day when he stumbled upon his first skull. "They're not the easiest things
to come by, you know," said Jay. "Sometimes when people go hunting I'll take the head of their 
game or I'll find them hit along the side of the road."

At the moment Jay has about a dozen skulls and is working on a few. When he gets a skull there
is a considerable amount of work to be done before it is fit to keep around without running 
everyone off.

First, the skull must be skinned. Then it's cleaned by either cooking it or feeding it to his 
meal worms which he keeps in a milk carton. "They're a type of worm that will eat the flesh off 
bones. I usually let them do some of the work," explained Jay. When doing a small skull it usually
takes a few days. There have been times, however, when he didn't get to them quick enough and has 
had to bury them.

Jay has quite a menagerie of skulls including a cow, dog, bird and mice. None are mounted yet 
although he hopes to get a case for them. Jay has never been a collector before this. "I was 
looking for something different and this is it," he concluded.

Slim's World

Beattie Bailey, Snoopy, the Wizard of Id: sound familiar? These characters may be famous on 
the national level, but Northeast has its own comic, Jeff Ridgway (alias Slim), the Index 
cartoonist.

Jeff, a junior from Brookfield, got his comic start in high school. He says, "I used to mess 
around with cartooning in high school, but I never got anything published. Then I came up here 
and was asked to draw for the Index."

Many of Slim's strips include caricature of himself. "I had to come up with a funny-looking 
character, so I drew myself." In his weekly editorial strip, Slim tries to provide the reader 
with a different aspect other than that of an editorial argument. He attempts to create unique 
cartoons and it is this uniqueness that has won him a Missouri University journalism award for 
the cartoon "Got Some Fire Turkey."

Besides cartooning, Slim has kept himself busy painting the mural at the Untouchables as well 
as working at campus publications. Slim is excited about his future. "I'd like to find a job in 
commercial art at a college when I can get a master's degree. But more than a job and a master's 
degree, I want to enjoy my wife Jo and my five-month daughter, Samantha."

Money Hungry

A future millionaire on campus?

For Greg Shelton, junior, this is one certain goal that he wishes to accomplish in life: to 
make a million dollars.

How does Greg plan to reach this glittering realm of fame and fortune?

"It's hard to know what business to go into; that's the major thing. Therefore, you have to 
find something that you have a little experience in and go with it. My experience lies in the 
background of fireworks."

Fireworks has been a part of Greg's life since he was 16. He sold them through a one-stand 
operation until last summer when he advanced to three stands: two in Chillicothe, his home town; 
and one in Kirksville. His brothers helped keep the operations going in Chillicothe while he ran 
a stand in Kirksville. It was successful.

Greg has always had this inner desire to be a millionaire since he was a boy and this desire 
has never faded. His determination and desire seem to fit in exactly with his philosophy of life:
"You only go around once in life, so you might as well grab all the gusto you can."

Self-confidence is another area that Greg seems to constantly excel. If there was a class on 
positive thinking, he would get an A in it.

"If you believe you're the greatest, then you will be the greatest. If you believe you can do 
something, most times you can. If America is still the land of freedom that we talk about, where 
a man can come from a log cabin and rise to the White House, I think I can achieve this goal," 
Greg said.

Greg has investigated the wholesale business in fireworks. He hopes to have a warehouse located 
at Queen City or Kirksville and supply fireworks to the retailers from the northeastern to the
western parts of Missouri.

Greg went to the bank to borrow money so he could build a warehouse. However, his business had 
yet to prove it could succeed and since he was three months shy of his 21st birthday, he had to 
get his parent's signature on the loan. That created a slight problem. His parents refused to 
sign.

This slight setback has not discouraged Greg's thinking in the least. He's still going to have 
his warehouse, but it will be rented. After he proves the business, he will then get his loan to 
build the warehouse.

Greg realizes there isn't any assurance that this business venture in fireworks will succeed. 
If it should fail, he won't give up. He will simply go on to another idea. He likes manufacturing 
so that could be the next step. Them he would go national and develop a big operation.

He has set this very hard but challenging goal to be nearly accomplished by the time he is 
28-years old and to reach the million dollar figure by no later than 30.

Obviously, some people are skeptical of him because only a small percentage of people are 
millionaires. But he thinks most people are taking him seriously.

"You have to prove your ideas to people and I'm doing my best to prove mine. I am totally 
engrossed in what I'm doing."

Border Lineman

Canadian Roland Mangold always wanted to play football in the United States. Now, as a 
sophomore, he is an offensive tackle for the Bulldogs.

"I always wanted to prove something to myself and people from my high school," Roland said. 
"Playing football in the United States is a prestigious thing; not many Canadians do it."

Roland, who attended Jarvis Collegiate Instituto, a five-year high school, grades 9-13, was 
discouraged by his high school and Canadian university coaches to play football in the United 
States.

"They told me stories about guys who couldn't get classes they needed; and on the field they 
were treated as equals to the United States' players," Roland said.

In Canada, athletic scholarships are forbidden. This is one thing which aided in Roland's 
decision to play in the states.

Roland was recruited by Coach Craddock for the University of Vermont. However, the program 
folded and the two headed for Northeast and the Bulldogs.

Roland especially liked what he saw in Head Coach Ron Taylor. "Coach Taylor says we are in 
school to learn before anything else and it is his job to see we get an education. He checks up 
on us in our classes for two reasons: he is concerned about us as individuals and he is concerned 
about us as part of the team," Roland said.

Roland was also impressed with the people in general. "The people are really friendly here. 
You become blind to the impersonalization of people in the city until you go away for awhile and
then return."

"The more personal atmosphere makes being a student-football player something special. I 
wouldn't want to do one without the other."

Roland has difficulty making a distinction on which is more important to him.

"Football is a part of me, something in which you must be dedicated. It's true what you've 
always heard about football building character."

His attitude might explain why he was selected to the MIAA all-conference honorable mention 
list as a freshman.

"I also see the importance of an education, especially in today's world; but I don't think 
it's necessary to have a college education to be financially successful or happy," Roland 
said.

Having converted to a mass communications major from the sociology field, Roland hopes to go 
into public relations or advertising. Ultimately he would like to have a ranch with horses, far 
enough from Toronto to be in the country but close enough to the comforts of the city.

Roland has seen a lot of changes and differences but he enjoys what he has here in 
Kirksville.

"The only reason I came to this particular school was because I had a football scholarship. If 
football didn't exist now I would definitely want to stay. I've grown fond of this place," Roland 
concluded.

All-American Cookie

Who is the superman of Northeast track?

Who leaps high jumps with a single bound?

Who placed All-American in the N.C.A.A. triple jump competition?

The man is Charles "Cookie" Thornton.

Charles, nicknamed "Cookie" by his mother because she thought him "very sweet," is a junior 
business major from St. Louis. Cookie began his track career in ninth grade when his brother 
helped him develop an interest in high jumping. But a year later, all looked grim, as scarlet 
fever ruined Cookie's chances of track competition. Being the competitor he is, Cookie conquered 
the fever and won the state triple jump as a junior and broke the state record his senior
year. These wins were only the beginning of a successful track career.

While at Northeast, Cookie has taken second in the high jump in the Bob Cory's Invitational 
Indoor Meet, and has placed All-American in the triple jump at Sacramento, Cal.

With the influence of friend Steve Powell, Cookie decided to come to Northeast. Cookie 
explained, "At first I intended to go to Lincoln, but then I wrote Coach Gardner and he showed me 
around campus. I liked it up here and besides my buddy Steve Powell was here. I'd rather 
'conquer' school with a friend than by myself."

And in Cookie's life "conquer" is the key word. Even though his official high jump height is 
6' 9" he declares, "This year I'm ready to burn! We will have a good team."

A Plus For The 100

And now for your half-time entertainment, the Marching 100+ with Diane McCarnes as featured 
twirler," the stadium announcer called over the loud speaker.

Diane, senior physical education major, has been twirling since she was six. "It's a kind of 
family tradition. When I started my two older sisters twirled. That helped me a lot," Diane 
said.

In the eighth grade Diane quit taking lessons and began attending camps and clinics at various 
colleges. Since then she has taught at all age levels.

Diane finds twirling for the Marching 100+ something she really enjoys. It gives her a sense of
accomplishment to be able to go out on the field, do a routine, and do well.

The Marching 100+ is a great help to Diane. They help her confidence and give her a lot of 
support. The band is good and that makes her feel good. "I love the band here," Diane said. "It's 
more fun and much easier to twirl if you have a good band behind you."

But it's not all fun and games. Many long hours go into practicing and planning routines. 
Diane spends an average of 20 hours a week practicing. Three-fourths of that time is spent just
sitting, playing the music and thinking about what she's going to do.

Last year there were two twirlers. Now Diane has the field all to herself. She liked having 
someone out there with her but finds that in many ways it's easier being alone. Now she can 
practice whenever she wants without having to work around two busy schedules. She can make any 
last minute changes she wants and doesn't have to worry about staying in time with someone 
else.

After graduation, Diane hopes to teach twirling in various clinics, camps and schools. "The 
experience I've received from twirling with the band is priceless. I wouldn't trade these years 
for anything in the world," she added.

Coping Without Sound

At the age of five months Jim Higgs contracted spinal meningitis which left him with a 105 db 
(decibel) loss of hearing in both ears.

Before entering college Jim attended St. Joseph's Institute for the Deaf, Central Institute for 
the Deaf and a Special School in the St. Louis County School District.

While in college, Jim has studied a variety of subjects. He spent three years at Rochester 
Institute of Technology (R.I.T.) where he studied social work and specialized studies. While at 
the University of Missouri at St. Louis and Northeast he is studying English in secondary 
education and library science.

Jim changed his major from social work because he wanted something in which he could make more 
money. The library certification gives him something to fall back on if he cannot get a teaching 
job.

In going to school Jim has encountered many difficulties to which he has either overcome or
adapted.

One such problem is attending classes. Since he can't hear what the teachers are saying, Jim 
relies on other methods of obtaining the information he needs.

At R.I.T. Jim was provided in each class with an interpreter. He was also given a notetaker 
who used special carbonated paper.

Here, as at UMSL, Jim has had to learn to adjust with, basically, what he has. He depends 
entirely on lip reading and notetaking.

Jim also encounters problems with the people he meets. Many have never come in contact with 
a deaf person before, so many don't know how to react. Jim explained, "I have tried to monitor my 
voice in order to make myself more acceptable in the hearing world. I have also tried to readjust 
my actions." Jim has had to lessen the use of facial expressions, gestures, sign language, and 
long-eye contact, which are typical of the deaf.

There are many misconceptions about the deaf. Because of these Jim has encountered much 
discrimination as in being hired for jobs. Many think the deaf are somehow mentally deficient. 
This stems from the old saying 'deaf and dumb.'

Jim has many goals for the future. Some of these are to work in a library, go to journalism 
school at Columbia and take some psychology of deafness and English courses at Gallaudet College 
in Washington, D.C. Undoubtedly Jim will achieve most if not all of his goals, as he is a very 
determined individual.

Born To Be Free

It's really interesting to drive through the country and see the hawks flying high above or 
perched upon fence posts. It gives me a weird feeling to think I actually had power over one of 
them," said Sophomore Bill Hosford, art and photography major from Brookfield.

Bill, who tamed and trained a red-tail hawk named Two Airs, feels the art of falconry, the 
training of falcons or hawks to hunt, is a very enjoyable and entertaining sport.

Bill explained how the young hawk was taken from its nest and then through training sessions, 
it ultimately learned to respond to his master's commands.

"The hawk responds to one basic command. Two Airs responded to my whistle. I rewarded him with 
a frozen baby chicken, which provided him with needed nutrients," Bill explained.

He became interested in falconry through a friend who painted and trained falcons and hawks. 
Unfortunately, Two Airs was poisoned by eating the meat of a contaminated squirrel another hawk 
had killed. Bill and his friend lost three hawks at one time.

Bill has not trained a falcon since. "It seemed so worthless. I just kept thinking of all the 
time I had spent with Two Airs and it just didn't seem right," he said with a sigh.

Bill has many other interests including scuba diving, hang gliding, horseback riding and 
mountain climbing. On campus he is a member of the Missouri Hall Camping Society, program 
director for KNEU and the fabled "Caveman" radio announcer.

Getting Your Feet Wet

Water swirling around your ankles, reaching upward to your knees, encircling your waist, and 
finally touching your face.

To most students entering a pool is a familiar, secure experience. That uneasy, insecure 
"first time" has been forgotten; forgotten to all but a few, one of whom was a nonswimmer Vicki 
Simmons.

The natatorium provided Vicki, a senior business administration major from Centralia, with her 
first swimming experience. Previously she had never had the time or place for swimming.

Vicki became interested in swimming after watching the swimming events of Summer Olympics. Her 
new interest motivated her to enroll in a beginning swimming class.

The first time she stepped into the pool was frightening. She had difficulty adjusting to the 
weightlessness of her body. Her first lesson was discouraging and she considered giving up the 
class. Walking forward required delicate balancing. "I was really scared; I didn't know how to 
move. I just had no idea what to do," Vicki explained.

"The second lesson was entirely different," Vicki said. "I knew what to expect. I relaxed in 
the water." She began to realize what swimming was all about and that it was fun, not 
frightening.

Vicki feels swimming class is one of the few classes that is both enjoyable and educational. 
"I love the class and I can see myself improving every day. I feel an important part of the 
cooperation and encouragement of the class members. The class environment is open and secure," 
Vicki said.

Vicki has considered enrolling in an intermediate class next spring. "Swimming is good 
exercise and an excellent way to release many frustrations," she said. She shares her enthusiasm 
with many of her friends; trying to interest them is part of the sport. She believes swimming 
will always be a part of her life now.

"When I started the class I didn't even know that I would float and not sink when I relaxed in 
the water. I'm swimming a little further each day. I'm going to get better all the time. I know I 
can do it" Vicki said.

Digging Into The Past

If a person likes to travel and is interested in people--past and present--he could follow in 
the footsteps of Dr. Robert Rhoades--if he could keep up with him.

Through his career of anthropology, Rhoades has explored places that most people only read 
about.

"I have a deep interest in the human condition. I want to learn as much as I can about all 
dimensions of humankind. This type of work gives me the opportunity to do just that, along with 
enabling me to travel throughout Asia, Europe, the Near East and America," Rhoades said.

While working for the Peace Corps I, he spent two years in the Himalayas doing agricultural 
work in the high mountains. He also spent a year in the Philippines researching the introduction 
of "miracle rice," a type of rice which is easier to grow.

In travels to the Mid East, Europe and America, Rhoades was involved with various "digs."

Rhoades, who received his B.A. in agriculture from Oklahoma State University and later a Ph.D. 
in anthropolgy, also holds an M.A. in sociology from the University of Hawaii.

Rhoades, who plans to hold an archeology seminar in the spring, hopes to get archeology and
anthropology moving on campus.

"I really have great hopes for anthropology here," said Rhoades. "The Social Science 
Department has great potential for this area of study."

Nature's Simple Beauty

"All I really wanted to do was have a little bit of nature inside my house," Donna Crawford, 
assistant French professor said. And that's exactly what she has done.

Crawford, who loves nature--its simplicity and beauty--has a living fireplace in her front
room.

"My husband and I decided the fireplace would be a beautiful way to show our interest in 
nature. We collected our rocks from Arkansas," she added.

The fireplace, which has five different types of lichens, must be watered and given sunlight 
(via a sunlamp) twice a week.

"The care of the fireplace is really no problem and overall it makes an interesting 
conversational piece for guests at our home."

Crawford, who enjoys teaching French, once swore she would never teach. Before coming to 
Northeast, she taught at a girl's prep school and worked for the United States government in 
Washington and Pakistan. She has studied at Sorbonne in Paris, L'Alliance Francaise in Quebec 
and the Italian University for Foreign Students in Italy. Crawford became interested in teaching 
after traveling aboard because she felt, "American students were inadequately prepared in the 
field of languages and their knowledge of foreign cultures was extremely handicapped. I had a 
particular interest in the French language because I enjoyed its simplicity in literature and 
the beauty of the language and culture."

Crawford returned to Northeast this year from her sabatical in France. She enjoyed her stay in 
Paris, where she lived in a "pensione" in the Latin Quarters, a popular student spot. She did 
research at the National Library and studied particularly the life in France today. She also 
attended the workshop for teachers of French which involved teachers from over eighteen different 
countries.

"The students in France are very similar to students here. Jeans, halters, midcalf skirts are 
very popular. One difference is there are not very many extracurricular activities for students 
so the majority are very politically minded," she said. She also noticed many students speak 
Frangalis--an American-French language, which shows to a greater extent the Americanization of 
France.

Crawford will return to France again not only because it is a requirement of the University, 
but because as she states, "It broadens my understanding of France as a whole and it is also 
enjoyable and exciting."

Crawford hopes more students will get involved in foreign language studies because she feels 
the cultural value is great, plus, more careers are open to students who have a foreign 
language.

"One's perspective is widened by living in a foreign land. I can see two different cultures 
from two different viewpoints of reality. I only wish more students could have this opportunity," 
she said.

Crawford enjoys many other activities. She is sponsor of Le Cercle Francais and at home she 
likes to do needlepoint, knit and cook--especially French foods. She and her husband sail at the 
lake and like to swim. She also rides her bicycle a lot.

"I never really rode a bicycle till I went to Europe and now I do it all the time. It seems so 
much simpler and that's what I like--simplicity," she concluded.

The RH Factor

Hall director and officer training, improved quiet areas, and a co-ed residence hall system 
are just a few of the new ideas Ron Gaber, director of. housing, has for the campus resident.

Gaber, who has headed resident halls at both the University of Wisconsin at LaCrosse and Ball 
State University in Indiana, accepted these positions as "a terrific challenge." He felt that 
students here would be "receptive in making the hall better than they've ever been."

One of the most viable changes Gaber has made is the beginning of the R.H.A. (Residence Hall 
Association). "I found it hard to believe that there was no such organization on campus. I saw 
the need for students to share ideas for bettering their environment, by new programs and 
policies," Gaber said. In the past the R.A.'s have had a police-type image and performed, more 
or less, babysitting duties. This year R.A.'s came back to school early to workshop. There were 
numerous topics discussed including, "How to help students cope with their problems instead of 
simply letting the R.A.'s solve them."

"Initial attempts to solve the problems would be made by the student," explained Gaber. "If 
more help was needed, the R.A.'s would step in. The students should be treated like adults as 
they are adults. I hope new changes will illustrate this fact."

Water Wizard

Competition, that's what skiing's all about," said Tom Gatto, water ski instructor and 
student. Gatto, who has been skiing competitively for nine years, has earned first and second 
places in Iowa state competition, and has ranked 9th and 17th in the nation in 1973 and 1976, 
respectively. "Qualifying for national competition is tough work. You must either rank in the 
top four in regional competition or have an exceptional performance rating," said Gatto, who 
has acquired these qualifications and displays several trophies to prove it.

Traditionally from Cedar Rapids, Gatto graduated from Upper Iowa College in 1972. Aside from 
skiing, which takes up plenty of his time, he has taught physical education, sixth grade and 
coached girls' varsity gymnastics. He is presently working on his master's degree in elementary 
and secondary administration and is a member of Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity.

Besides skiing in competition, Gatto also devotes time to a traveling water ski show.

"My brother and I started our show about twelve years ago. We perform every act you can think 
of including barefoot skiing and seven-man pyramids," Gatto said.

For the first time, students were offered a course in water skiing. With the classroom at 
Thousand Hills State Park, and Gatto as their instructor, many students were eager to take the 
course; but Gatto felt that he could accomplish more with a small group. So 24 students were 
enrolled in the fall term class. The boat, skies and other equipment were furnished by Correct 
Craft, a promotional program of which Gatto is a representative. The course was offered again in 
the spring with plans for a five-week summer program.

It's hard to follow in the footsteps of any editor especially one that has produced a 
yearbook that has won two of the top awards in the nation. It was a challenge, and hopefully 
the ECHO staff has met this challenge and produced a yearbook that the University can and will 
be proud of. This yearbook was made for the people of the University to read, enjoy, and 
remember in years to come.

The '77 ECHO could never have been put out if it hadn't been for the hard work and 
dedication of the ECHO staff. The staff was relatively new this year, with only Kim, Patty, 
Winston and myself returning from last year's staff. But with their new faces, Brenda, Nancy, 
Steve, Bill, Jeff, Neal, Patty, and Jim brought with them new and fresh ideas to make the '77 
ECHO better. With the combination of the new and old staff we achieved what we set out to 
accomplish--the '77 ECHO.

Other people that played a very important role in producing this yearbook were Terry, 
Wally, and Steve. Even though he was our new advisor, and also the INDEX advisor Terry stuck 
by us every step of the way. He was always there when we needed him and was a big help. I 
thank him for that. Wally als deserves a lot of credit for standing behind us all the way and 
never doubting we would get it done. And then there was Steve. He was always there when I 
needed his help. He was always there when I needed his help. He always gave me the encouragement 
I needed to keep going.

This is it--the '77 ECHO. I'm glad I had the pleasure of being a part of it. I 
hope you enjoy it.

And so it has been a year of new directions. Directions ... a time when the swirl 
and motion of change captured all. Although the year stops, the perpetual process of 
change, whether good or bad, continues. It leads us in a variety of ways, making points 
along our paths, as we aim for our goals.
