Guiding the university through a year of academic improvement, President Charles McClain 
instituted a series of policies designed to emphasize the educational experience. As a 
result, "value-added" expanded the student vocabulary.

The University led the way in enrollment, increasing by almost three percent while 
enrollment at other state universities declined. Admissions standards tightened and 
more applicants than ever before were denied.

With an emphasis being placed on academic excellence, higher test scores reflected the 
quality of the freshman class and stricter suspension and probation rules upgraded the 
quality of the entire student body.

Leadership extended from the classroom onto the playing field as the nationally ranked 
Bulldogs advanced to the NCAA Division II football playoffs for the first time in 
University history. For the second consecutive season the softball team finished fourth 
in the nation.

By taking strides toward academic, athletic and personal excellence, the year offered the 
chance to be . . . IN THE LEAD.

THE HEARTBEAT of the University comes from the Administration/Humanities Building. Social 
science faculty and Publications offices were transferred to new offices in the basement 
of A/H in the fall.

Although the University's main reason for existence is academic, it could not continue 
without students. Students form the basis of the organization, and students balance their 
educational experiences with activities outside the realm of classwork.

Living arrangements showed more flexibility. On-campus housing reflected the need for more 
room by opening Campbell Apartments to single students and creating the compact triple 
situation in the residence halls.

New experiences constantly faced the students. On Feb. 14 a new FM radio station began 
broadcasting, offering some students an opportunity for employment and all students 
another choice.

The events that influence students ultimately affect the University. Each day students 
experienced changes. As students experience the passing events of each day they brace 
the foundation that keeps them IN THE LEAD.

Laughlin Hall. This snowfall was made especially precarious by the coating of ice underneath.

A SNOW-COVERED GAZEBO in the sunken garden behind Kirk Memorial is framed by snow-laden trees 
and bushes. Several inches of snow blanketed Kirksville in February.

The signs of winter can be just as obvious as the signs of spring. But what happens when Mother 
Nature gets her signals crossed?

For most of the winter, students relished the unseasonably warm weather or moaned about the 
lack of one of winter's normally plentiful commodities, snow.

Snow came only rarely in the early part of the winter, and then usually disappeared in a warm 
spell a few days later.

In the first week of February, students began to think winter had finally set in just a bit 
late, as Kirksville received one of its first substantial snowfalls of the winter. Students 
slipped their way to classes on a layer of ice under about six inches of powder.

A week later, Mother Nature pulled another surprise change, as the temperature climbed into 
the 70-degree range.

The snow melted and students exchanged winter clothes for shorts. Frisbees replaced sleds as 
students took advantage of the change. Even the foliage around the campus was fooled by the 
unexpectedly warm February temperatures. The spring-like temperatures found students getting 
an early start on both suntans and baseball practice.

The mild temperatures and meager amounts of snow were an unexpected change from the harsh winter 
of 1981-82 which chilled the University with subzero temperatures, icy winds and snow.

The lack of snow was a variation from the norm, but while the snow lasted, students took the 
opportunity to enjoy the scenery or create a snowy work of art. Then, the warm weather arrived 
and students appreciated the opportunities it brought along. ECHO

An old-fashioned cure

Budget cuts have been responsible for the disappearance of institutions and 
organizations in university campuses across the country. The University has 
supported one institution on this campus which has become extinct on nearly 
every other Missouri campus. Housed in McKinney Center, the Student Health 
Clinic continues to provide inexpensive, professional health care to University 
students.

If students have a physical examination form on file at the clinic, $2 and a 
student identification card will buy them a medical examination by either a 
registered nurse or physician and medication, if prescribed.

"I think it's pretty good to have something on campus for people to go to when 
they're sick. It's easy to get there; no hassle," freshman Scott Meier said.

"It (the clinic) needs to be there because I get sick a lot. It isn't far when 
you don't have a car to get to the hospital or doctor. It's convenient and cheap," 
freshman Beth Holt said.

The clinic runs on funding from several places including state and internal sources. 
The state of Missouri provides a list of pharmaceutical contracts from which the clinic 
gets the lowest prices on quality medications.

Employees of the clinic are licensed, with the exception of the receptionists. Nursing 
students and interns are not allowed to practice at the clinic so students are ensured 
of maximum professional care. But some students were wary about the quality of care at 
the clinic.

"It's (the clinic) good to have around, but the people aren't as well-informed on 
individuals as they should be. They don't know enough about us to give the best of 
care, but at the same time, I don't see any other way they can handle it," junior 
Kathy Gregg said.

Almost any medical problem that can be treated by an office call to a family physician 
can be handled at the clinic. In the event of a more serious illness or injury, students 
are asked which hospital they would like to go to, and the clinic sees that the patient 
gets there Biggerstaff said. SHC does maintain a good working relationship with area 
hospitals, but refrains from recommending one above another in these incidents.

"For colds and flu, you can't beat the price. But for more serious problems, they should 
transfer students more quickly to a hospital, rather than risk an incorrect diagnosis." 
junior Polly Nordyke said.

Biggerstaff said he enjoyed working at the clinic because he like being around young people. 
But being the only doctor for 7,000 students put a lot of pressure on him.

"The big thing that bothers all of us (SHC employees) is that it's a thankless job. You never 
hear the good things, only the criticism. That's the most wearing part (of the job)," 
Biggerstaff said.

At the end of the 1983 spring semester, Biggerstaff retired from his position as the SHC
director. Biggerstaff received his degree from the Kirksville College of Osteopathy and 
Surgery in 1940 and was in private practice for several years. In 1952, he began working 
at the University's health clinic on a part-time basis.

It may be puzzling to some students that a doctor who had a successful private practice 
for several years, would take a clear step back in his career to direct a state-funded 
health clinic. Biggerstaff said private practice bothered him because his patients were 
forced to pay so much for medical services.

"The only answer in my own thoughts, is that I have some strange feeling that people 
shouldn't have to pay so much for health care," Biggerstaff said.

He added that growing up during the depression had an effect on his career choice.

"It always bothered me (in private practice) to see parents struggling to raise a healthy 
family and be hurt by the financial burdens of medical care," Biggerstaff said. "Whatever 
we (SHC) do doesn't hurt them (students) financially,"

Despite Biggerstaff's retirement, the Student Health Clinic will continue to provide students 
with medical services which are competent and inexpensive. The University began the search for 
a replacement in mid-February, hoping to fill the position by the 1983 fall semester. Reaching 
this goal will depend upon the search committee's ability to find a doctor with the old-fashioned 
values, similar to those of Biggerstaff. ECHO

A necessary evil

If there is a place for everything and everything belongs in its place, 
where are placement papers placed?

Placement papers must be placed with Career Planning and Placements by every 
student who receives a degree or certificate from the University, Kathleen Strickler, 
director of placements, said.

"The papers are really credentials for employment search," Strickler said. Before 
graduating with a two-year certificate, bachelor's degree or master's degree the forms 
must be completed, turned in and processed by the placement office. They must also be 
updated for every degree earned, she said.

"It's a nice complete package all in one place," senior Lori Mager said. To fulfill 
the requirements students pick up a packet and instructions from CPPC and then must gather 
the information and complete the forms.

Any time after a student becomes a senior he can fill out the papers which lists personal 
statistics, a college transcript, the major field of study, an availability card, a resume or 
short autobiography and a request for recommendations. "It's nothing they have to do the last 
few weeks," Strickler said.

Although the placement office recommends papers for spring graduates be in by the end of 
the fall semester, many students do not meet that deadline.

"You just keep putting it off and putting it off," senior Cory Scott said. Scott did 
not turn his placement papers in until after spring break. "Just getting motivated is 
the problem. If you'd sit down and do them, it would probably take about two hours," he said.

"I had a lot of other stuff to do and they are so tedious," senior Ruthie Dare said.

Strickler said the papers are very valuable credentials and do not take long to complete. 
"A good, sharp student can sit down and in 30 minutes have the papers completed."

Some students said the papers took them longer to complete because they were confused by 
some of the questions. "I had a bunch (of questions) about what they specifically wanted," 
Scott said. "A lot of questions were fuzzy, not clear."

"Anytime I had a question I just called over to placements and they answered it," senior 
Brenda Kennedy said.

Senior David Baxley said the items requested on the papers were vague, but a call to the 
placements office gave him the answers he needed.

Although the work maybe tedious and troublesome, Strickler said it is worth the problems.

The references are one of the most valuable portions of the placement papers, Strickler 
said. "Those (recommendations) are what employers look for."

One of the forms in the placement packet is a request for recommendations. Students can 
list three instructors or other references to be contacted for letters of recommendation. 
The writers must be contacted by the student before they are listed on the placement papers.

Placements cannot add to a student's file without the student's permission and students 
must sign a statement as to whether or not they waive the right to see the written 
recommendations. Strickler said the recommendations are more effective when the file is 
closed to the student.

The only way the recommendations can be removed is for the writer of the recommendation 
to request it in writing. That is very rare, Strickler said.

The placement papers pave the way for interviews and other University placement activities. 
Unless the papers are filed, placements has no record of the student's availability for 
employment. "They are the losers if they don't turn them in," Strickler said.

Interviews are set up in the placements office for a variety of job openings in business, 
industry and teaching fields. Students can come into the office to set up an interview and 
those

(Page 15)

who have completed their placement papers are at an advantage in those 
situations. "We don't say if you don't have your papers done you can't 
darken our door, but it's to your advantage to have them completed," 
Strickler said.

The on-campus interviews give students an opportunity to meet with a variety 
of corporations and agencies looking for applicants. "That (the interview) 
really helps out," Scott said.

Baxley said he was not impressed with the on-campus interviews because most of 
the companies do not offer the kind of employment he wanted. But he has found 
his placement papers useful when he fills out job applications because all the 
information needed is in front of him.

Career Planning and Placements believes placement papers provide a valuable job 
search tool, but some students would probably not have filled them out unless 
they were required.

"I'm glad I did it, but I wouldn't do it again," Baxley said.

"I think they are good at placing teachers, but in other majors you sort of have to 
go out and look on your own," Mager said.

Students do find the papers valuable though. "It probably gave me a good background of
things I'd done in school," Kennedy said. "It helps the University, they like to keep 
a record."

The University's attempts at recordkeeping ran into some problems. Previously, the Career 
Planning and Placement Center has always had more than 90 percent of the University's 
graduates report they have found employment. This year, however, 15 percent of the 
graduates did not respond and so could not be included in the number placed even if 
they had found jobs.

Strickler said the 85 percent placement was disappointing when compared to past years.

The placement figures are also used to prepare an elaborate annual report to be presented 
to the state legislature. "It proves to the legislature our people are marketable and are 
going out to be working members of society," Strickler said.

The most important feature of the papers for students, however, is its success in helping 
them get jobs. Can it help students find employment?

"When I first started I didn't think so, but now--it's possible," Scott said. ECHO Story by

Compact triples
 

(Page 17)

Working, with limited space

Since 1979, the Residence Life Office has been seeking a way to accomodate all those 
wanting on-campus housing. In the fall of 1981, they started offering an alternative 
called compact triples to ease the shortage.

In the compact triple situation, three people are placed in a two-person room. Students 
choosing this alternative are given a $170 discount from the room and board rate for a 
two-person room, Bob Weith, assistant director of housing, said.

There are 110 compact triple rooms available. Of those only about lOO actually house three 
students, Weith said. The rooms have a set of bunk beds and a single bed to more easily 
accomodate three people.

Last spring, incoming freshmen were sent letters offering the compact triple alternative, 
but about half of those in compact triples were placed in them without their consent, 
Weith said.

Freshmen Loree Carter, Renee Kramer and Sharon Stursma were placed in a compact triple room 
in Ryle Hall. None of them was enthusiastic when faced with the unexpected situation.

"I signed up for a double room," Carter said. "I was mad, really mad. I knew there would not 
be room," she said.

Stursma was not happy with the situation either. "I really did not want it at first, but I did 
not have much choice."

Kramer said, "I panicked a little bit, as well as being surprised."

One semester later, their attitudes have changed. "Now it isn't too bad, we get along pretty 
good. We are lucky enough to get along," Kramer said.

The one disadvantage to the situation is the lack of space; closet space, shelf space and 
moving space. "There is trouble with the lack of space," Stursma said. "More space would
 be nice."

"I have a lot of clothes so I feel a little bit more paranoid than they do," Kramer said.

It seems that they have adjusted to the lack of space. "We have not known any different. We 
have just kind of accepted it as being a part of college," Carter said.

The closeness is evident not only in the lack of space, but also in the closeness these three 
share. "Renee and Sharon go jogging. I do not like to jog, so I stay home. Other than that we 
are always together," Carter said. They go to parties, movies and basketball games together.

"It is better sometimes to have three people because sometimes one person does not want to go," 
Kramer said. "I just love my roommates to death."

They all agree they would like to live together again next year. "We would like to get a corner 
room made for three people," Stursma said.

Weith said that, overall, compact triple housing has been a positive venture. "It will most likely 
continue as long as we have a big demand for on-campus housing.'' ECHO Story by Sue Kolocotronis

(Page 19)

A coed complex

The no vacancy problems University housing has faced were alleviated by a coed housing.

Coed housing found a place at the University when Campbell Apartments was opened to single 
as well as married students.

Two housing problems were solved by integrating the students. The complex usually has vacant 
apartment space, so opening it to single students eliminated these vacancies. The arrangement 
also helped ease the overflow from residence halls which were filled to more than 107 percent 
capacity in the fall.

Approximately 70 single students lived in Campbell Apartments throughout the year. About 60 
percent were men and 40 percent were women. Of the 62 apartments, 29 were opened to single 
students. Eight apartments in the complex are two-bedroom and reserved for married students, 
preferably those with children. The apartments open to single students have only one bedroom 
and are shared by three students. All apartments are furnished.

Because of the increase in the number of students living in the apartments Bob Weith, 
assistant director of housing, said, "We felt a need to increase the size of the staff."

Junior Mark Roman was hired as a resident assistant to assist senior Kathy Yokeley, the 
manager of Campbell Apartments.

"Mark has been a big help," Yokeley said. "We work together a lot. It is really good to 
have help, especially during check-ins and check-outs."

Weith said the students were given the option of purchasing meal stickers and eating in 
the residence hall cafeterias or cooking their own meals at home.

Roman called this "an alternative lifestyle for upperclassmen. There are both pros and 
cons to living out here," he said. "It is easier to study here because there aren't as 
many distractions and it is much more relaxed, but I hate the long walk to campus."

Senior Mark Kuhn agreed with Roman about not liking the long walk and added another problem 
of living there. One of the things he does not like is that it seems so isolated. "I used 
to see a lot more people when I lived in the dorm."

Other students living in Campbell Apartments said atmosphere there is more adult. Due to 
the more adult environment, some disciplinary changes had to be made. Yokeley said a new 
probation system was started and there are quiet-hours 24 hours a day. She said everyone 
stays reasonably quiet. "We had a few problems at the beginning of the semester," she said.

Some of the married students anticipated the single students would be noisy Yokeley said, 
"But it has worked out pretty well."

"I try to have the students go to one another and work out their own problems," Yokeley said. 
"Then, if nothing can be worked out, they come to see me."

Some of the single students moved in the apartments as a matter of choice while others did so 
because of the lack of space in residence halls. Residence Life personnel hope that next year 
all of the students living in Campbell Apartments will be doing so because they want to. ECHO

Purely platonic

"Hello? Is this Mrs. Zimmerman?"

"No, Mrs. Zimmerman does not live here." The voice on the line probably belongs to senior 
Mary Hayes. Hayes and alumnus Glenn Zimmerman live together in a purely platonic relationship.

"It's just like being married without the sex," Hayes said. "I do his laundry, the dishes, 
share my letters and I know where the spare car keys are."

For Hayes and Zimmerman the decision to live together was a natural progression since they 
had lived together previously at Cornerstone, a Christian community house sponsored by the 
Newman Center.

"It only seemed logical, since Mary and I were best friends. So why not live together? It 
doesn't faze us," Zimmerman said.

Friendship may be one reason for living together but junior Heidi Seitter said necessity and 
convenience are other reasons.

"Last year a friend of mine needed a place to stay until he found a place of his own, so he 
stayed with us. No big deal," she said.

As with just about everything, the financial situation plays a big part in off-campus living. 
"It's cheaper, with everything," Hayes said. She estimates she saves more money living 
off-campus than living in the residence halls. "Besides, it's not too far to see my best 
friend," Hayes said. "Of course we also share everything, even the tape deck I got for 
Christmas, the one Glenn gave me."

It seems sharing is not the only advantage.

"Mary adds a feminine touch to the apartment. You know, by putting up pictures, flowers and 
things like that. It's something I wouldn't take the time to do," Zimmerman said.

Safety and a man's point of view on many topics are added advantages. "It's pretty handy to have 
a man around the house and I feel safer, too," Seitter said. "Plus they can give you their view 
on different situations, like how you look when you are getting ready to go out or what to do 
when you have a problem with your boyfriend."

It isn't all sugar and spice though. There are disadvantages involved with living with the 
opposite sex. It seems space and privacy are problems.

"I think if we had one more bedroom it would be perfect, especially for entertaining guests," 
Hayes said. As it is now Zimmerman sleeps on the fold-out couch in the living room, while 
Hayes has the bedroom.

Space is not the problem for Seitter. Privacy is. "I wouldn't call it privacy because we have 
all we want, but you can't lounge around halfdressed anymore. He may have his friends around 
and, well, even in front of him you can't," she said.

For Hayes and Zimmerman there doesn't seem to be a problem.

"It's really OK," Zimmerman said, "our lifestyles are different. She goes to school and I go 
to work, mostly nights."

Do their parents know about the arrangement? "Yes and they are all for it," Seitter said. 
"They think it's great. I'm rather small and, being from Chicago, my folks worry about my 
safety."

"My folks had no objections," Zimmerman said. "They knew Mary before this and they know it 
is platonic."

Hayes on the other hand had opposition from her parents. She was already moved in a month 
before she told her parents.

"They didn't like it at first," she said. "They finally accepted it but they didn't approve 
because of what others might think."

One of Zimmerman's concerns was what other girls would think as far as his reputation and 
Hayes was concerned.

coed living arrangement eases the financial situation for the six residents who share the

WITH THE BOOKS spread out, juniors Tom Stemmier and Cindy Krische share the table 
for a night of studying. They live in the house with four other students to share 
expenses.

"You could always introduce me as your halfsister,n Hayes said.

Seitter doesn't bother to worry about what others think. "I know there's nothing going on 
and that's what really counts."

Both Hayes and Zimmerman think their friends are a little bit envious. "It's like a fantasy, 
to live with a guy," Hayes said. "Mostly they were curious asking me what it was like and what 
he was like. Now they just take it for granted and ask me where Glenn is."

Seitter's friends don't say too much about it. "I don't think the girls are envious at all, 
and the guys, well, they are all for it," she said.

Seitter said the chores in her house are done by everyone. "Now we have a chart with all the 
jobs on it and we rotate every week. That way everyone helps with everything."

Hayes and Zimmerman do the chores whenever they have time or see that it needs to be done. 
"There is no set thing," Zimmerman said.

"The only other problem I have with this arrangement," Hayes said, "is that now I have an 
identity crisis. I'm no longer Mary Hayes. When I answer the phone and it's for Glenn, 
they always ask me if I'm Mrs. Zimmerman." ECHO Story by Liz Lukowski

Top story secrets

Children sometimes dream of finding chests filled with indescribable treasures among 
the layers of dust in the attic of an old house. With all the old buildings on campus, 
students may wonder what is blanketed by the dust in the attics.

Currently, the attic in Laughlin Building, the only building remaining from the University's 
original campus, contains nothing but a snow shovel used by maintenance personnel to relieve 
the roof of heavy deposits of snow or leaves. Laughlin's attic is easily accessible. All one 
must do is enter the door in KNEU, the campus radio station studio, and ascend the stairs. Of 
course, the attic in Laughlin Building is unique since it is rumored that the ghost of Harry 
Laughlin spends his idle days there, resting up for a night of adventure.

In the past, the attics on campus have been used primarily for storage. The treasures found 
in the attics would be no more than broken furniture, pillows, bathroom tiles and ancient 
homecoming decorations, the collection of the latter being added to each fall.

But this year, the University launched a project to clear out the attics in the residence 
halls. Ron Gaber, director of residence life, said the attics needed "a good housecleaning. 
Even attics need to be cleaned."

The treasures removed from the attics are not just thrown away. Instead, the University puts 
all of it into the Ophelia Parrish building which was vacated in the spring of 1982. To keep 
the excess in check, the University offers a public surplus sale one or two times during a 
semester. A bid must be offered and sent to Jefferson City. The treasures go to the highest 
bidder.

Not all of the items are available for sale. Some of the furniture which is not being used at 
the time is stored in the building until it is needed.

The attics were previously a place to move unused furniture and other artifacts out of sight. 
"No one has made the decision (before) about what's to happen to it (the furniture)," Gaber 
said. He said that with the campus cleanup, it is easier to make decisions on what to keep, 
what to repair, what to use, what to sell or what to throw away.

After the treasures are gone, all that remains is air space surrounded by pipes, wiring and 
electrical equipment. Doug Winicker, campus planner, said there is a "delicate environment 
in the attics because of the pipe and wiring systems. He also said the attics are beyond the 
fire barriers which end with the ceilings of the top floor of the buildings.

Centennial Hall Council initiated a plan to use the empty space for storing the residents' 
bicycles during the winter months.

Some students have suggested that the attic space be converted into extra rooms in the residence 
halls. "As long as it's feasible and liveable conditions for students, I think it's great," senior 
Linda Rhodes said.

Winicker takes an opposing view. He said the cost to renovate the attics to make them liveable 
would be so dramatic it would be more feasible to build new buildings altogether.

But some students do not think the space should remain empty. "I do believe it (attics) should 
be used for something. There's not enough space on campus for it to be wasted," freshman Susan 
Plassmeyer said.

For now, stripped of the unknown treasure they once held, the attics on campus will remain cold 
and musty with nothing at all for the layers of dust to conceal. ECHO

IN ONE CORNER of the attic in Science Hall, hugs and worms decompose a deer's head in a closed 
aquarium. After decomposition, the bare skull is used for study in science courses.

NO VACANCY SIGNS can be posted since every inch of space is used in campus buildings. Paper 
supplies are stored in the Violette Hall attic where the telephone switchboard was once 
housed

BELOW CAMPUS, University maintenance employee Joe Schwartzhoff checks a water pump 
in a tunnel. The tunnel system houses pipes and cables which supply heat, water and 
electricity.
 

(Page 25)

The land down under

The lights went out. One plumber, one reporter and one photographer all stood in 
total darkness. Out came the flashlight and the plumber went to check on the lights. 
After he left, the only thing visible was the flash indicator of the camera. A rustling 
noise came towards the two standing in darkness. Rats? No, water in the pipes. The 
underground tunnels are usually this dark and noisy.

Walking across campus in the winter there are places where the snow will not stay. Under 
these melted pathways are the underground tunnels of the campus.

There are two tunnel systems under the campus, Gene Schneider, physical plant director, 
said. The older tunnel, which is at ground level, was built around 1920. There are no 
records available that reveal the actual year. This tunnel goes both to Science Hall 
and Kirk Building from the power plant.

In 1968-70 the newer tunnel was installed. It is about three feet below ground level. 
This tunnel also goes in two directions from the heating plant. One branch goes to Kirk 
Building. The other extends to Science Hall then turns and runs beneath the sidewalk, 
past the fountain and library, to the Administration/Humanities Building and Baldwin 
Hall.

The underground system also includes a short tunnel in front of Pershing Building, a
ductwork that runs parallel to the tunnels (for the electrical lines) and crawlways (a 
lot of which are no longer in use).

The tunnels carry the steam pipes, heat return pipes, chilled water pipes, cold and hot 
water pipes, telephone and computer cables and cables of the Energy Management System. 
With all of this, there is not much room left.

Joe Schwartzhoff, plumber, said, "After working in those tunnels a while, you feel like 
you have claustrophobia, every bone and muscle aches." Schneider said the tunnels do make 
maintenance work much easier.

At least once a week the maintenance workers walk the tunnels to inspect the pipes and make 
sure everything is in working order. The areas that need the most attention are the expansion 
joints. The expansion in the pipes can be as much as six to eight inches. These joints allow 
for that expansion. With periodic checks, malfunctions can be found before they become major 
problems.

To fix major problems, the whole steam system would need to be shut down, Schwartzhoff said. 
That will not be done when classes are in session unless it is an emergency.

John Lucke, plumber, said that the items they replace most often are light bulbs.

Strings of lights lead down the long concrete corridors. Although the average size of the 
tunnels is 6 by 7 feet, there is not much extra room with all of the piping.

The temperature may vary between 55 degrees and 200 degrees the plumbers said.

"It was small and hot. I didn't expect the temperature change," said junior photographer 
Liz Mossop. "It reminded me of a cave in the cool part." The cool areas are usually in 
the new tunnel. This tunnel is also drier and quieter than the old tunnel. Both tunnels 
do have pumps to keep them dry, but water in them has been known to get three feet deep.

"I was expecting more life inside," Mossop said. "I only saw one cockroach." Schneider 
said that only mice, rats, and big cockroaches might live in the tunnels. Two raccoons 
did come out of the tunnel into the plant once, Schwartzhoff said, but he has never seen 
any in the tunnel. Schneider said animals do not stay in there because the noise is almost 
constant, and the Physical Plant uses bug spray in them. At one time there was a boiler 
room cat, Lucke said, but someone took it home once it became domesticated.

The only creatures that can be seen down there with any great consistency are the cockroaches 
and the maintenance men, both of which keep guard over the University's steam. ECHO Story by 
Debbie Bellus

WORN DOWN over time, many pipes in the old tunnels have corroded from the heat and humidity 
within the tunnels. Many of the tunnels are directly below sidewalks causing snow to melt.

INTRIGUED by the tunnel system sophomore Debbie Bellus listens attentively as physical plant 
employee, John Lucke, explains the system. Both a new and old system are presently in use.

Feminist frontiers

From a historical perspective, it was quite an extraordinary affair. After all, it 
isn't every day that Joan of Arc, Louisa May Alcott and Virginia Woolf are found 
mingling with Amelia Earhart, Susan B. Anthony and Willa Cather in the Student Union 
Building. But during the third annual Women's Fair March 10, these and other famous 
women in history came together to emphasize women's role in history and also to 
indicate the course women will be taking in the future.

The Women's Fair, sponsored by the Kirksville chapter of the National Organization for 
Women was "a chance for the campus and community to come together as a celebration of 
women's contributions to society, and as an information point so all the groups involved 
with women have a way of getting information out to the community," Linda Twining, 
assistant professor of immunology and fair co-chairwoman, said.

"The purpose of the fair was to celebrate the history of women's contributions to civilization, 
to make people aware of the contributions of women in the local community and to make women 
aware of what's available in the world today," Jody Helton, graduate assistant in English, 
said.

"Exhibits focus on groups in town whose members focus on women or deal with issues important 
to women," Twining said. Campus groups, such as the Student Member Section of the Home Economics 
Association; Kappa Omicron Phi, home economics honorary; and Cardinal Key were also represented. 
Groups with a large number of female members or who deal with women's issues were invited to 
participate, Twining said.

The fair included demonstrations on breast self-examination and exhibits on such activities as 
batiking, pottery and personal care. Thirty-two displays offered information on such topics as 
child abuse, nuclear disarmament and Social Security. "We had sections for all ages--from Planned 
Parenthood to Birthright or quilting to occupations in the military--just a wide range," Helton 
said. "We had both traditional and non-traditional roles represented."

The fair also featured historical films concerned with women as well as several panel 
discussions. The panel members brought up discussions of women in Kirksville history, 
women and aging, and the woman's role in foreign countries.

"I had never discussed the role of women in my country before," junior Cavidan Yilmazdalay 
from Turkey said. "The questions people asked were things I had never thought about."

One addition to this year's fair was the idea of the wandering historical women. Students 
and faculty researched and dressed as women who had to struggle to a place in society, 
Twining said.

Those attending the fair registered at the door and were given a sheet on which they collected 
the signatures of the characters. When asked for a signature, each character gave a short 
description of her contribution to society. "We haven't looked at what these people had to 
go through to make those contributions," Helton said.

Another unique aspect of this year's fair was its connection with the observance of the third 
annual National Women's History Week for the first time. "Every other year, the week fell during 
Spring Break," Twining said.

"National Women's History Week grew out of a women's movement," Shirley Morahan, assistant 
professor of English and fair cochairwoman, said.

"History and society didn't see fit to recognize women's contributions," she said.

National Women's History Center in California, a privately-funded organization concerned with 
the teaching of women's history, asked the Kirksville chapter of NOW to document its celebration 
of National Women's History Week, Morahan said. With the fair, "We add in a historical perspective, 
it's a great educational opportunity. We can focus on what's been done before as well as in the 
present."

The fair drew over 1,000 attendants throughout the day, Helton said. "It was a huge success; I 
had my goal set for 1,000."

"This year's fair was a success because the number of people increased by over 400," senior 
Teri Brain, promotional committee member for the fair, said. "There were a lot of women coming 
in from the community who came to see what was going on and were interested enough to ask to 
participate in it next year."

"The fair gave women who work an opportunity to meet others," Twining said. For potter Maureen 
Puhlman, who recently moved to Kirksville from Springfield, Ill., participating in the fair was 
a "getting-acquainted time with people who have the same interests."

Those attending the fair seemed impressed. "I thought it was a good way to honor today's women 
and their achievements and talents," freshman Belinda Tooley said.

"What the women were doing was interesting to them. I think people got a lot out of it just by 
watching what the women were doing," sophomore Debbie Dollens said.

"My first thought was that I realized how many organizations in our society women can participate 
in," senior Tammy Hagemier said. "I think that something like this would tend to draw women who 
realize women's potential to alter society and who choose to have an input."

Morahan said the fair will continue to be a yearly event. She said the fair is one more step in 
the campaign to make people more aware of women's achievements in the past and the present as 
well. ECHO Story by Laurie White

A fine line

In presenting Henrik Ibsen's "Hedda Gabler" the University Players were faced with 
the task of successfully interpreting one of the most difficult plays in modern 
theatre.

"The difficulty is due mainly to the fine line between comedy and tragedy found in 
'Hedda Gabler,' " director J.G. Severns, professor of dramatics, said.

The title character, played by senior Julia Miller, is a woman who wishes to control 
and manipulate the lives of the people around her. Hedda wants to shape their 
destinies.

Throughout the play Hedda attempts to reshape the unsatisfying world she has created 
for herself. Miller said the role was "complicated because she is not quite right in 
the head. She can turn on the charm as well as bitchiness as long as it serves her 
purpose."

Hedda wants control of all of the people in her life, but especially the men, who, in 
her Victorian world, control simply on the basis of their sex. She marries good-natured 
George Tesman who talks often of his good fortune but buries himself in his books and 
writing.

Her attempts to design the suicide of Eilert Lovborg, played by senior Ray Twenter, result 
in a messy death rather than the perfectly executed act she created.

Hedda burns the manuscript Eilert and Thea Elvsted, played by senior Denise May, have worked 
to complete. Eilert must explain the disappearance to Thea who thinks of the manuscript as a 
child. "I had never played a drunk before and it was interesting because it was the hardest 
part. He (Eilert) is trying to be melodramatic as he tells Thea he tore up the manuscript when 
he really doesn't know what he did with it," Twenter said.

The guilt over the loss of the manuscript combined with Hedda's prompting lead him close to the 
point of shooting himself in the head as Hedda has planned for him, but he ruins her perfect 
suicide when he shoots himself in the stomach.

As a result of her plotting, Hedda becomes entrapped by the powerful and sophisticated Judge 
Brack. Brack, played by sophomore Randy Bame, discovers Hedda's pistol was used in Eilert's 
suicide and uses his knowledge to blackmail her.

Even Tesman's Aunt Julianna, played by graduate student Luella Aubrey, does not succumb to 
Hedda's manipulation.

Hedda can find no escape from the problems she has created. "She has a calm outward appearance 
and an inward tension," Miller said.

Her dead father instilled in her a sense of the impossibility of surrrender and she uses his 
only gift to her, his target pistols, to end her life.

Even after her death, the other characters do not understand the reasons for her frustration 
and eventual suicide. Judge Brack can only utter the feeling of the time that "people just 
don't do such things."ECHO

Peer profits

When Lewis and Clark set out to explore the West they took along native Indian guides. 
The two explorers knew the best guides were people who already knew the territory. The 
University also uses this theory in its orientation program for incoming freshmen.

During the summer, incoming freshmen are requested to come to campus for a day of 
registration and campus orientation. To offer a more realistic impression of campus 
life to new students and their parents, the summer orientation program hires University 
students as part of the staff.

IN A GROUP, parents and prospective students stop in front of Blanton/Nason Hall while 
junior Pam Weatherby tells them about the building. Students are considered the best 
campus tour guides.
 

(Page 31)

BEFORE WORK BEGINS on composing a course schedule, freshman Elaine West and Mike 
Kacir, freshman counselor, take a few minutes to discuss her college objectives.

"We wanted to integrate student input. It was a way to make sure we had the student 
voice in the program," Marianna Giovannini, freshman counselor and coordinator of the 
summer orientation program, said.

Students first began working with the summer orientation program during the summer of 
1978. That summer, Les Dunseith, staff assistant in public relations/alumni, was an 
undergraduate who had been working in the Dean of Instruction's Office. Dunseith wanted 
to continue working during the summer and Darrell Krueger, dean of instruction, put him 
to work as a general assistant in the program, Dunseith said.

Dunseith set up equipment for programs each day, surveyed participants in the program and 
evaluated the results. But he said he always made a special effort to interact with the 
new students and their parents in order to answer questions and talk about the University.

The next summer, in addition to Dunseith, other students were hired, and Freshman Counseling 
gradually developed the permanent role of students in the summer orientation program.

"It changed the tone of the program. Students influence the feeling a lot," Giovannini said. 
"The tone of the day is much more relaxed. The new students don't feel as self-conscious."

The number of students who work in a paid capacity has grown from only one to the 20 students 
hired last summer. Not only have the umbers involved changed, but also the kind of jobs and the 
hours of work involved changed from previous years.

Starting in the summer of 1982, students were hired to work for two hours each day and did only 
one specialized task. Previously, the staff was hired on a full-time basis and did a variety of 
jobs throughout the day.

"We feel it was a really positive move. Students were able to go to school and at the same time, 
work," Giovannini said.

Students who worked in the program both before and after the change said it was a more relaxed 
situation. "I was much more confident and wasn't so worried," senior Carl Brouk said. "I enjoyed 
it more." Brouk worked throughout the day during the summer of 1981 but the next year concentrated 
his effort on greeting participants as they arrived.

The summer orientation staff was divided into two-hour shifts with jobs ranging from clerical work 
to parent-student communication.

Junior Chad Chase worked with parents in small group discussions and on campus tours. "I got a lot 
of experience communicating with people and I learned a lot about NMSU. It educated me a lot about 
the campus."

Giovannini said in choosing the student staff, Freshman Counseling looked for enthusiasm, a positive 
attitude and students with good judgement. "I think we look for people who we feel are going to be 
dedicated and are not in it just for the prestige," she said.

Giovannini also said the students were very good for the incoming freshmen. "It makes the new students 
less anxious. It used to be they stayed with their parents for the whole day," she said. "We've got a 
Northeast student to make them more comfortable; they tend to trust and believe a peer."

Besides the paid workers, students volunteer to help for a day during orientation. These students work 
under a program called Student Helping Students. Student volunteers work with incoming students to answer 
questions, help iron out scheduling problems, tour the campus and in general, ease the transition into 
college.

"It's more meaningful coming from a peer," Giovannini said. Workers also said the students input was 
valuable. "I remember the impression people had on me," senior Deana Kerr said.

"They (parents) asked some pretty risky questions. Sometimes I didn't want to answer," Chase said. 
"The best answer was to give them my point of view; I could give the student's point of view."

"I could offer a realistic point of view," Kerr said.

Both the current students and incoming freshmen gain from the interaction between the two groups. 
"It gives new students a better perspective on going into classes," Giovannini said.

Brouk said the ordinary routine of each day was mastered quickly, but the unexpected events of the 
day were the most interesting. "I really enjoy working with the exception. I like to deal with 
something different."

"Students have a lot of personal development. They have an opportunity to work closely with 
administrators, division heads and other University staff members," Giovannini said.

"It helped me grow to learn the concerns of parents," Kerr said. "It made me look into myself."

Kerr, who also worked with groups of parents, said that in working with the program she felt 
she was hearing the questions her parents must have asked when she came to the University. 
"Parents like to hear the experiences of someone who's been there," Giovannini said.

"I got to see how the inside works," sophomore Deb Lehr said. Lehr worked as part of the 
clerical staff for the program and said her favorite part of the job was working with and 
meeting new people.

"It gives them (students) a chance to have an impact on a very important program of the 
University," Giovannini said.

Students, she said, are the best salesmen for the University. Both students and parents 
place a greater trust in the students of the University than any administrator or instructor. 
The only people who really know what classes are like and the subjects and type of work involved 
are the students who have taken them, she said.

Current students are able to describe teaching styles and testing methods so incoming students 
can choose the classes with the best learning environment for their needs.

"It gives new students a better perspective on going into classes," Giovannini said.

"It's really a neat program. No matter what role you played it helped ease their 
transition," Brouk said.

The student workers said interaction between parents, entering freshmen and current 
students was invaluable. "The program is good overall, and having students talk with 
incoming students is something it should always keep," Kerr said.

Giovannini said she is pleased with the development of both the summer orientation staff 
program and the Students Helping Students program. "They really help keep the whole program 
running behind the scenes; they take the hassle out of it for us," she said. "They make the 
program appear a fine-tuned machine." ECHO Story by Kathleen Armentrout

Good weather and family participation made graduation Worth it

The day dawned bright and sunny for the more than 900 graduates and their families 
and friends attending the spring commencement ceremonies May 7, 1982

Unlike the year before there was no threat of rain in the forecast and the traditional 
procession across campus to the graduation site in Stokes Stadium progressed with little 
trouble. As a precaution newly-purchased chairs were set up in Pershing Arena, but the 
warm spring day made the preparations unnecessary

The crowd of parents and friends filled the stands to capacity and then flowed onto the 
grassy area around the stands.

The crowd in Stokes watched the graduating students and the faculty processions enter the 
stadium after its trip from Baldwin Hall to the statue of Joseph Baldwin, founder of the 
University and on across campus to Stokes,

While at the University founder's statue the six students graduating with perfect 4.0 grade 
point averages laid the traditional wreath at the foot of the statue.

Upon their arrival at the stadium, the graduates and guests heard alumnus Raymond Bentele 
give the commencement address.

Bentele graduated from the University in 1960 with a degree in accounting and worked his way 
up to become president and chief executive officer of Mallinckrodt, Inc., in 1981. The 
corporation became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Avon Products, Inc., in 1982. After the 
purchase by Avon, Bentele became executive vice president of Avon.

In his address Bentele reminisced about his days at the University, but he also spoke to 
the crowd, and the graduates in particular, about the changes that had taken place in the 
22 years since his graduation.

He commended the University for its transition from a teachers college to a university. 
"The school has identified the needs of its clientele, in other words its present and 
future students, and then has responded to them," he said. "It has responded by expanding 
its range of educational offerings while at the same time maintaining and improving its 
quality of education."

Bentele also said although change is difficult to predict, it does come. "Change will 
come about. It will come about in the face of resistance. It will come about slowly, 
but it will come," he said.

The speaker told the graduates they had a solid base on which to build their futures. 
"With your education you are exceptionally well equipped to deal with the world as it 
exists today."

He reminded the students this was only the base. "But remember, the education you have 
received here is only the beginning. You must build on it for it to do you any lasting 
good."

After the address Darrell Krueger, dean of instruction, recognized the honor students 
including the six graduating with perfect GPAs.

In addition to honoring outstanding students, six retiring faculty members were granted 
emeritus status.

After the recognition of outstanding students and retiring faculty, University President 
Charles McClain conferred bachelor degrees on 820 candidates and graduate degrees on 97 
candidates.

At the conclusion of the ceremonies, 917 graduates had made one of the changes Bentele 
spoke of. The one from student to graduate. ECHO

Combining, travel with study, the Japanese exchange program provides students with an

Edu(va)cation

Two monks were staring at the clouds and the moon in the sky. One said, "Look, the clouds 
are moving." The other said, "No, the moon is moving." An older, wiser monk overheard the 
argument and told them, "Neither the moon nor the clouds are moving. Your minds are moving."

This is an example of some of the unique information that thirteen other students and I who 
participated in the 1982 Summer Japanese Program gained.

The program featured eight weeks of intensive Japanese language and culture study and a three 
week visit to Japan.

"We were able to learn a lot while we were here, but we experienced it in Japan," sophomore 
Linda Scaglione said.

"To hear the Japanese people speak and to actually experience their lifestyle was the best 
learning experience of all," junior Tammy Bringaze said.

University President Charles McClain and Tom Miura, a graduate of the University and a professor 
at Hosei University in Ichiguya, Japan, discussed improving the relationships between the two 
universities. Hosei then became a sister university to the University through an agreement between 
McClain and the Hosei administration in November 1978.

The first exchange program began in the summer of 1980, when Hosei sent a group of students to this 
campus. In 1981, the University sent students to Ichiguya as well. Since the program is fairly new, 
improvements are still being made by examining the input of the participants.

The entire program is unique because it offers the participants an opportunity to see the country, 
not only through the eyes of a tourist, but as a student as well.

Our group took classes during the morning at Hosei for approximately two weeks. The afternoons were 
spent on sightseeing or other group activities such as learning Kendo (a samurai sport), flower 
arranging, and informal discussions with our Japanese peers.

Our group was taken to NHK (the national broadcasting system in Japan) where we saw a famous Japanese 
actor filming a scene. We went to a folk art museum and to a Kabuki theater performance. We also toured 
Matsushita Communication Industry where we saw Panasonic, Techniques and National products being 
manufactured.

Since Ichiguya is near Tokyo, we were also able to sightsee on our own.

"While in Japan, I was sometimes a typical tourist," Scaglione said. "I shopped and I took pictures, 
but having that (Japanese) student contact really made the difference. It was fun being an international 
student because of all the attention we received."

"We received a lot of stares, but they weren't bad," senior Dayna Pittman said. "Instead, 
they seemed to look at us out of curiosity." Junior Tony Koehler said, "It was neat to see 
how they (the Japanese students) spent their free time, and I never felt out of place at all." 

Approximately eight Hosei students became the guides for our evening activities. "The students 
were very patient and kind to us," Scaglione said. "Sometimes we were very demanding, but they 
were always friendly and dependable--they never left us anywhere."

We found that socializing Japanese style was quite the same as in America. Western influence 
was definitely apparent in and around the Tokyo area. Somehow, the Japanese culture was still 
evident even in the many discos where Human League and Soft Cell blared out of the speakers. 
"What shocked me was the way people (especially men) danced by themselves while looking in the 
mirror," Scaglione said.

Edu(va)cation

Senior Glen Changar had several opportunities to "jam" with some of his friends. "It was 
great! The music was a kind of transcendent for the lack of language communication. They 
were playing only American rock and blues, and they had never heard an American play a 
harp (harmonica) before--other than on records," Changar said. "They seemed to be as thrilled 
to have me as I was to be playing in their band."

Each of us also had an opportunity to live with a family for a weekend. Bringaze said, "I 
enjoyed my host family. One early morning my host mother came in and said 'Miss Tammy, time 
to play softball.' So, there I was, playing softball at five o'clock in the morning." They 
played at this time because there was such a demand for the field, that early in the morning 
was the only time they could get it reserved, she said.

While we were at Hosei, a number of protests were taking place on campus. The protesters were 
in opposition to a new campus which would split the student body. "I was surprised to see how 
secretive the protest was," Koehler said. "The paricipants (which included approximately 40 
students) were wearing masks and helments and demanded that no pictures were to be taken."

"It reminded me of the early 70s in America," Loring lvanick, assistant professor of German, 
said. "It was shocking, but it was more peaceful than those in America," he said. lvanick along 
with Fran McKinney, international student adviser, accompanied the group.

Pittman said, "It was scary because we didn't know for sure how the protesters felt about us." 

The protests ended with the closing of the campus. Tourists would only read about situations 
like that.

"We (Americans) have a monopoly on ideas," McClain said, "and the reality is they (Japan and 
other countries) are taking our ideas and perfecting them and improving them and surpassing us 
in many dimensions. My basic objective (for the Japanese program) is to do what they are doing, 
in a sense, and language is going to be integral for that outcome."

If the participation level of the program increases, McClain said a full-time Japanese language 
and culture instructor will be added to the faculty.

"We do have an isolation in middle America--we have an isolation in America because of the vast 
expanses of water," McClain said. "But as we think of international competition and trade, we 
are very close to another country.

"Through this program, we are setting a unique example of a public university, located in a 
relatively isolated area of the country, which is providing opportunities for students and is 
helping the U.S. meet certain goals," he said.

"Trade is important," McClain said, "but world peace is the ultimate objective."

Eight weeks is a short amount of time in which to learn a foreign language. I was surprised at 
how well I could use what I had learned. My favorite experience abroad was when I was sitting 
among six of my Japanese friends in a small pub. The whole evening was spent in conversation. 
They spoke in their native tongue, so I didn't understand a lot of what was being said. But I 
listened very intensely, and I could sense what was going on. They spoke to me slowly so I 
could comprehend. Of course, this forced me to communicate back in Japanese.

It came to me at that time that I couldn't possibly understand the Japanese culture fully until 
I could understand the language more fully. But at least the program provided a basis for that 
goal.

"If one knows another language and another culture, a lot of things happen. Trade develops, 
friendship bonds, better ties," McClain said. "It's a lot easier to dislike a people or 
country whom you don't know." ECHO Story and Photos by Pat Rollins

SIGNS AND WAVES from the crowd signal to certain graduates that their friends 
and relatives are watching with pride. An estimated 5,000 people attended the 1982 
summer commencement exercises.

FELLOW GRADUATES applaud Randy Hultz in recognition of his anticipated award. Hultz 
was the first student to earn a Master of Accountancy degree. Hultz was a charter 
member of Delta Sigma Pi.

Even though the weather was cool, summer graduation reached 408 degrees

On the supposedly unlucky day of Friday, Aug. 13, 408 students gathered on the cinder 
track of Stokes Stadium to listen to commencement speaker Linda Miller tell them how 
lucky they were to be receiving degrees here that evening and not at another university.

"In obtaining my Master's degree at the University of Kansas, I discovered how lucky 
I was to have gone to Northeast Missouri as an undergraduate. Not only was the quality 
of education I received here as high or higher than that of the other students at Kansas, 
but I had experienced a camaraderie among the faculty and students at Kirksville that is 
not prevalent in the large universities that I've since attended."

Miller was a 1970 graduate and is now a production superintendent with the Ford Motor 
Company Engine Plant in Dearborn, Mich. Prior to that, she worked as a Quality Control 
Superintendent and a Supplier Quality Assurance Representative at Ford. The Kirksville 
native is the first woman to hold any of these positions.

In her address, she also urged the students to listen to the opinions of the people around 
them, to have faith in their own abilities, to be willing to put forth the effort necessary 
to achieve success and to be flexible enough in goals to consider new opportunities as they 
come along. "The degree you have received tonight is your springboard to the future," she 
said.

Commencement activities began with the traditional placing of the wreath at the feet of the 
statue of Joseph Baldwin by Shaun Baskett, the highest-ranking graduate attending the 
ceremonies. One of 24 students graduating with honors, Baskett earned a bachelor of arts 
degree in political science.

The degree earned by Randy Hultz was the first master of accountancy degree ever awarded 
at the University. It was one of 206 master's degrees presented by Lydia Inman, dean of 
graduate studies.

Two faculty members were awarded emeritus status following their retirement from the 
University. Raymond Crist taught industrial education here for 18 years before his 
retirement in July. The University is something of a tradition in the Crist family. 
Raymond graduated in 1950, his wife Maysel in 1950, Michael, the eldest of his two 
sons in 1975, and David is currently a junior majoring in industrial education.

Grace Devitt served as a professor of nursing and the head of the Division of Nursing

Saturday morning lasted all week long as students celebrated the 42nd annual 
Homecoming under the theme of "What's Up Dogs?"

Bugs Bunny and friends were dominant on campus, and Mel Blanc, the voice behind 
the Looney Tunes cartoon characters, was the week's featured performer.

Director of Student Activities Vonnie Nichols called Homecoming 1982 "a success" 
and mentioned her satisfaction with the last two celebrations.

"The 1981 Homecoming was a high point," Nichols said, "but this year went well, 
too. It's hard to compare from year to year."

There was some disappointment among students when a rumored concert by Cheap
Trick never materialized. "We'd never intended to have a Homecoming concert," 
Nichols said. "Mr. Blanc had been scheduled well in advance and the Cheap Trick 
idea was a possible plus that never came about, as it turned out."

Nichols said that due to budget and other scheduling problems concerts are becoming 
increasingly difficult to book.

Blanc's performance, held in Baldwin Hall Thursday evening, included virtually every 
voice in his repertoire. The crowd of around 1,000 people, seemed to enjoy the show, 
which fit in very well with the entire week's theme.

"I think it (the theme/Blanc show match) went over well because we seem to have a lot 
of 'closet' cartoon fans on campus," Nichols said. Other activities during the week 
included the Gong Show, sponsored for the second year by the Residence Hall Association. 
The show kicked off the week on Sunday night.

Sophomore Brenda Hunt, RHA vice president, said the show went smoothly, despite low 
attendance. "We lost a lot of our audience because we had the show on the tail of a 
three day weekend," she said. "But the crowd we had was very enthusiastic and our 
technical crew did a good job."

One new attraction, a carnival on the lot behind Centennial Hall, wasn't so successful. 
Rain Friday evening hurt attendance at the carnival and threatened to put a damper on the 
entire weekend. But the sun shone brightly by noon on Saturday and carnival officials said 
they managed to break even.

Campaigning for Homecoming Queen was obvious as the campus was swamped with posters urging 
votes for the four candidates.

Sophomore Karen Lindbloom was chosen to reign over the parade and football game. Sponsored 
by RHA, Lindbloom was crowned by 1971 Homecoming Queen Regina Myers, assistant director of 
admissions. "It was the neatest thing in my whole life," Lindbloom said. "I didn't think I'd 
win at all. It was like a total shock. It's an experience I'll never forget." 

Other queen candidates were junior Denise Johnston (sponsored by Sigma Sigma Sigma), senior 
Jane Barry (Delta Zeta), arid senior Geri Funke (Sigma Tau Gamma).

Friday night's pep rally was followed by a dance at the armory, sponsored by the Alumni 
Association. Les Dunseith, staff assistant in Public Relations/Alumni, who was in charge 
of the dance, said it exceeded his expectations. "Financially, we did quite a bit better 
than we thought we would," he said. "We ended up raising over $600 for each of the 
co-sponsoring organizations." The other organizations sharing sponsorship with the Alumni 
Association were the Interfraternity Council, the Panhellenic Council and RHA. Footloose, 
a rock band from Carbondale, Ill. provided the music for the capacity crowd.

Saturday's parade, the biggest in the history of the University, was termed a "definite 
success" by senior Dale Schenewerk, Blue Key third vice president. "This was the biggest 
Homecoming parade we've ever had here, so we'd definitely consider it a success." A total 
of more than 160 entries were involved. Phi Lambda Chi and Alpha Gamma Rho's entry, a purple 
and white train with various Looney Tunes characters on board, won the float competition.

It all boiled down, or boiled up, to the football game with Southeast Missouri State 
University, though. Coach Bruce Craddock, temporary instructor of physical education, 
likened the Homecoming Week activities to a wedding. "All week long you prepare and get 
ready for the big event on Saturday," Craddock said. "Then, if you lose your Homecoming 
game, it's like getting ready for a wedding and the bride not showing up." The "bride" 
made it in plenty of time. Final score: Bulldogs 42, SEMO 14.

All in all, it was a good week, and student sentiment echoes that statement. Sophomore 
Brent Seaba said, "It was a really good time. It makes Homecoming easy to enjoy when the 
Dogs win the football game." Sophomore Mike Dye said, "It was like a big, four-day party. 
It felt good to relax and not worry about anything for a few days."

Two freshmen, Ann Miller and Sue Fastenau, both residents of Centennial Hall were proud 
that their "home" won the decorations contest. "It was neat winning the best decorations 
award for Centennial Hall," Miller said. Fastenau said, "Compared to high school homecomings, 
this was a lot better time."

When it was all over, what was "up" was spirit. It was a successful week topped off by a 
successful game for the top-ten rated Bulldogs. No one minded the pun that was heard over 
and over again Saturday night as various parties broke up... "Th~ th-- th~ th~ THAT'S ALL, 
FOLKS!" ECHO

Since Shakespeare is difficult to perform, the cast and crew had to

Trumpets sounded as the lights began to fade into blackness. Prospero raised his arms, 
commanding the storm to begin. The wind stirred, thunder echoed, lightning flashed and 
The Tempest began.

The audience was taken on an adventure to a magical isle, experiencing evil, love and 
laughter as the story unfolded. When the last line was said and the last movement made, 
applause filled the Baldwin Hall Little Theatre. What most of the audience did not 
realize, however, was the amount of time and dedication that went into producing this 
Shakespearean play.

The theatre department performs Shakespeare once every four years, though J.G. Severns, 
professor of dramatics and director of The Tempest, said he would like to do more. "I 
love directing Shakespeare, but there's so much more to do," When it came down to choosing 
which of Shakespeare's plays to do, Severns considered many aspects, finally deciding to 
do one of the pastoral plays. He chose The Tempest because "it is one of Shakespeare's 
best pastoral plays. Besides, it pleased me, because I haven't seen many productions of 
The Tempest, and it was a challenge to me as a director."

Most people have trouble reading Shakespeare, let alone speaking or performing it. Cast 
members were no exception. "You have

challenging.

(Page 45)

Take the challenge by storm

to learn a whole new language," junior Ruth Limbert, who played Miranda, said.

Senior Robert Gleason, who played Prospero, said, "It was harder to figure out 
what the lines meant. I had to look up some words." 

Senior Bill Lemen, who played Caliban, said, "The way you say the lines is 
important. Shakespeare uses a lot of iambic pentameter and you have to be 
careful not to fall into a repetitious pattern."

"It took more concentration to portray the character," freshman Kenny Boss, 
who played Sebastian, said.

Although some cast members found the lines gave them trouble, others found 
Shakespeare's style helped them with their character development. Junior 
Christopher Koff, who played Gonzolo, said, "Shakespeare is super clear. 
The images in the lines help understanding a lot. You know what the character 
is thinking and why just by the lines."

"The iambic pentameter didn't take long to get used to," sophomore Shawn Cassidy, 
who played Ariel, said. "If you read it right you could tell cause it made sense."

Limbert said, "With Shakespeare you don't have to have a gimmick to make your character 
work. The lines tell you the character."

The cast members each found one thing or another that gave them trouble. For Gleason it
was the transition of emotion. Lemen found Caliban a hard character to develop because 
"Caliban was a monster. In other shows there are people like the characters. You can 
develop a character by observing these people, but you couldn't do that with Caliban."

"You had to be more prepared," Limbert said. "In other plays if someone misses a line or 
a cue you can ad lib, but you can't do that with Shakespeare."

"Trying to be convincingly funny was the hardest thing for me," junior Rusty Smith, who 
played Trinculo the jester said.

Meanwhile, Cassidy found that he "spent more time on the physical movement than on developing 
a mental character."

The technical crews were also a big part of the show. Technical director John Whiting, 
instructor of drama, said, "The first thing you need is a floorplan that will work for 
the director. Doc said he wanted a scrim dividing the upper and lower stage and I worked 
from there." Whiting said he made sketches and looked at art books to get some of his 
ideas. Whiting used rocks to represent a barren, deserted island and added the sheer 
curtain to give the set a magical quality. The way the set was designed gave the stage 
four different levels. The down stage was reality and upstage behind the filmy curtain 
was where all the magic took place. Whiting said, "I liked designing the set for The 
Tempest, because with Shakespeare the sky's the limit. This makes designing the set 
easier in some ways because Shakespeare's style allows for more artistic freedom. With 
more modern plays you need to be realistic, but with Shakepeare you can build the set 
almost anyway you want--abstract, stylized, whatever."

Graduate student Nancy Goeke, who designed the costumes, said she read a lot of research 
material first and then decided what she liked, what Severns and Whiting liked, and what 
would work best for the actors and the show. All in all, Goeke found the show to be fairly 
easy as far as costumes and was pleased with the results. "It's a special feeling," Goeke 
said, "to sit in the audience and see the costumes and say, 'that's mine'."

"Doc made sure we knew what we were doing and did an excellent job," Ruth Limbert said. 
Gleason said "Doc's experience and knowledge helped make the show work."

"Doc did a super job directing," Lemen said. "He pulled as much out of the actors as was 
possible." ECHO Story by Debbie Leland

ESPecially Kreskin

"The Amazing Kreskin" came to campus to mystify even nonbelievers with the power of suggestion. Kreskin performed 
before a packed Baldwin Hall Auditorium on Sept. 14 as the opening performer for the 1982 Lyceum Series.

Tickets for the 8 p.m. show were sold out by noon of the day of performance. Students trying to purchase tickets 
for the remaining balcony seats waited in a line that extended outside of Baldwin Hall.

Kreskin's reputation as one of the foremost authorities in the field of extrasensory perception, attracted the 
capacity crowd. Kreskin said he is a mentalist and was quite lucid in stating what he is not. "I am not a psychic. 
I am not an occultist. I am not a fortune teller. I am not a mind reader. I am not a medium. I am not a hypnotist."

According to Kreskin, hypnotism is a "well meant delusion." To back up his conclusion he has a $25,000 challenge 
to the first hypnotist, physician, scientist, or psychologist who can conclusively prove under scientific conditions 
the existence of a specific hypnotic trance, state or condition. A person fools himself, Kreskin said. "The only 
person ever hypnotized is the hypnotist."

Sal Costa, instructor of psychology, disagrees with Kreskin's analysis of hypnosis. "Hypnosis is an altered state 
of consciousness," Costa said. He said this can be measured through changes in blood pressure, body heat and brain 
waves. Costa said he believes that Kreskin does have the power of ESP but maintains that his show does use hypnotism.

The highlight of the show began with Kreskin asking for volunteers to demonstrate the power of suggestion. The 
response to his request was so great Kreskin had to spend several minutes reducing the number to 30. At his 
suggestion, the volunteers reacted to the sensations of heat, cold and rain.

One of those who responded to the suggestions was junior Kevin Krieg. Krieg said he was surprised with what Kreskin 
was able to do. "He really amazed me. When he told us we were getting cold I started to shake and 
hot it felt as if the sun was beating down on me."

Krieg said he felt that it was not what Kreskin said but rather how he gave his instructions. "He made me feel at 
ease being on stage. After we sat down my friends told me I was on stage 45 to 50 minutes, but it only seemed like 
10 minutes," Krieg said.

Not all of Kreskin's subjects were fully convinced by the performance. "Kreskin told us to separate our two index 
fingers a few inches and then concentrate on the space between our fingers. He then told us we wouldn't be able to 
keep our fingers apart. Mine touched but I could have kept them apart if I wanted," senior Mark Barron said. Barron 
was one of the volunteers asked to return to his seat before the main demonstration.

Barron said he thought Kreskin has ESP but doubted his power to make people feel different sensations. "Kreskin did 
some things that couldn't have been faked, but as far as making people feel hot or cold, I believe some people were faking."

One of the tricks Barron said could not have been faked was Kreskin's "check hiding" act. Kreskin's check for his 
evening's work was hidden by a group of five students. Kreskin was escorted out of the auditorium by Gilbert Kohlenberg, 
professor of history. The group, meanwhile, hid the check in the shoe of a student sitting in the second to the last 
row. It took Kreskin about 15 minutes to locate the check. "The trick has failed. I failed nine times. If it fails 
again I will quit," he said.

Kreskin's work with ESP dates back to his childhood. He began working on his powers when he was eight years old. His 
brother would hide objects in his family's yard and Kreskin would try and find them. This later devleoped into the 
"check hiding" act.

Kreskin said he does not claim to have psychic powers. He believes that everyone has ESP, but he is able to detect 
feelings. He calls himself "a sensitive." ECHO

volunteers found themselves unable to achieve the task.

Taking, their show on the road keeps the cast In tune with people

Although most people complete their bachelor's degree in four 
years, some take a year off to work, to hang loose, or to just 
get away from studying. But only 500 college students each year 
are fortunate enough to tour with Up With People.

Each year more than 8,000 students apply for Up With People, but 
only 500 are accepted.

"It is not an easy thing to get into, but if you are the right type 
of person, you will," junior George Haley said. He toured with the 
group in 1980. "The biggest emphasis is what your personal goals are, 
if you are outgoing and if you are in good health," he said.

In the year that students tour with Up With People, they travel around 
the country and the world presenting a dancing and singing show.

Haley toured throughout the United States, Canada, England, Belgium, 
Denmark and Holland. Senior Kim Murrell traveled in the Midwest, the 
New England states, Belgium and the Netherlands on her 1980 tour with 
the troupe. "It really broadened my horizons because I had never been 
outside of Missouri," Murrell said.

Once a student is accepted to the program he spends five weeks training 
in Arizona at the Up With People headquarters. "You work from 8 a.m. to 
8 p.m. six days a week getting ready to take the show on the road," Haley 
said. "By the end of that, you are ready to go."

While on tour, they rehearse 3-4 hours every two days. "The people they 
take are not taken for their talent, so it is constantly being developed 
and you have to keep it polished," Haley said.

In addition to performing in the show in different parts of the world, 
the students also spend a lot of time interacting with the new people 
they meet. "It is really stressed that you socialize with as many people 
as you can to learn about the areas you are in," Haley said.

"A big part was staying with the host families and getting to know people 
and how they live," Murrell said. "A highlight was going to Europe and 
trying to communicate with them."

After the year of touring with the troupe is over, students carry that 
experience and its benefits with them throughout their lives. "I think 
I can get along with people a lot better," Haley said, "and I can make 
better use of my time."

Although completing a year of touring with Up With People means that 
college will take five instead of four years, Murrell said, "I would 
do it all over again if I could. It was worth it." ECHO

Activities Vonnie Nichols said. "For Oct. 23, it was a beautiful 
day," she said. The main purpose behind Parents Day is to arrange 
a structured time for parents to come to campus and visit their sons 
and daughters. Many parents are interested to see how their sons or 
daughters have settled in to college life, she said.

The planning stages for Parents Day begin early each year. After each 
one, Nichols evaluates the day's activities and begins preparation for 
the next year. The first thing to be done is to pick a date, Nichols 
said. "We usually try to pick a weekend when there is a home football 
game, it seems that there is high interest in the football games, we 
sold over 1,400 tickets this year,''she said.

After all of the plans and the activities of the day were organized, a 
mailer was sent to the parents. This mailer included a letter from 
President Charles McClain inviting parents to the University. He 
mentioned the quality and rigor of the academic programs and encouraged 
parents to meet the professors instructing their sons and daughters. 
Also contained in the mailer was information about the "Discover" 
computer system, the $600 million bond issue, the special programs 
of the day for younger brothers and sisters along with a schedule of 
the day's activities.

Activities began with a coffee hour and registration on the mall. The 
cheerleaders and a German music band composed of fine arts division 
faculty performed. "Most of the parents got into the spirit of the fall 
picnic weather," Nichols said. Entertainment was provided by the NEMO 
Singers at a general assembly in Baldwin Auditorium. Senior Carl Mueller, 
Student Senate president, welcomed parents and McClain spoke briefly. 
Dean of Students Terry Smith acted as the master of ceremonies.

While parents attended the general assembly, a program, "What's NMSU 
All About," was held in the Student Union Building Conference Room for 
younger brothers and sisters in grades 9-12. A slide show and other 
general information about the University was presented by Director of 
Admissions Terry Taylor and Assistant Director of Admissions Gina Myers. 
The program is an excellent opportunity to visit with prospective students 
and find out how they feel about the University, Taylor said. This is the 
third year for the informational program. "We always try to do something 
for the Siblings," Nichols said. For those even younger an hour of 
cartoons was provided in the SUB Tangerine Room.

A picnic lunch was served in Red Barn Park, and open houses were held 
in the residence halls. Sophomore Lisa Woods, Centennial Hall resident 
assistant, said that individual floors and the main lounge were decorated 
for the occasion. "We served refreshments in the morning and Hall Council 
members and RAs greeted parents. We also sold flowers for our parents at 
the hall desk."

At 1:30 p.m. the Bulldogs took the field against the Northwest Missouri 
State Bearcats. Parents of football players saw their sons rout the 
Bearcats 63-13.

After 'the football game, parents, brothers and sisters and other guests 
attended functions planned by campus organizations. "We have a reception 
in our chapter room and everyone gets a chance to meet each others parents. 
It's a good way to get to know the pledges' parents and for them to see 
what our sorority is about," senior Jenny Jeffries, Sigma Sigma Sigma 
president, said.

Junior Jeff Menz, Delta Chi president said "A letter was sent to our 
parents telling them about the day's activities and our chili supper 
after the game. It (Parents Day) is a time for us to meet each others 
parents and for them to visit among themselves. We had a party that 
night and those young-at-heart attended."

Senior Wendy Smith, Delta Zeta, said "We don't do as much on the 
University's Parents Day. We have a reception after the game and 
the pledges bring their parents up to visit." Smith said that Delta 
Zeta has a formal awards banquet in the spring.

For other students the day gave them time to visit with their parents 
and enjoy a good meal. "It's a good time being with the folks. I hadn't 
seen them in a while and it was good to spend some time with them. We 
went out to eat. It was fun to get dressed up for a change," sophomore 
Kent Stolley said. Stolley's parents travelled from Bettendorf, Iowa.

Over 4,000 reservations were made for the day. Parents Day is a 
formalized opportunity for parents and students to get together, 
Nichols said. "They find out if things they are told in summer 
orientation are true. It's also a way for the University to let 
the parents know that the University is interested in the success 
of its students."

With the large number of visitors for the weekend, all of the area 
lodging was booked in advance. "My mom and dad decided at the last 
minute to spend the night so they could watch me play soccer the 
next morning," freshman Maureen Mullally said. "They called to make 
reservations at a motel but there was no opening so I told them they 
could stay in my room." Mullally and her roommate spent the night in 
a friend's room. "About 3 a.m. there was a phone call in my room and 
my dad answered it, he told the caller not to call back and the caller 
ended up calling the hall desk to tell them there was a man in my room," 
Mullally said. The RA woke her parents and told them about the problem. 
Mullally said she told the RA that she wasn't aware of the problem having 
her parents stay in the room would cause. "They (her parents) took it all 
in fun," she said. "They're going to be sure and get reservations earlier 
next year." ECHO

Taste test

For the last 30 years, the International Students Club has brought 
a variety of cultures to anyone wishing to buy a ticket to the 
International Club dinner. This year, a tradition was not broken, 
only improved, as the club added featured entertainment to the 
buffet-style dinner.

"This (the banquet) presents the customs and cultures of the different 
countries through foods and traditional songs and dance," junior Rashid 
Malik, president of International Students Club, said.

Fourteen different countries were represented at the affair, ranging 
from France to Palestine, and including the United States.

When someone eats at the International Club dinner, they can be assured 
they are eating authentic dishes from other cultures. Vera Piper, 
instructor of Spanish and club adviser, said she accompanied the banquet 
committee on a shopping trip to purchase groceries necessary for the 
various dishes. The food was divided among club members who were preparing 
dishes from their own countries. Thus, the food was prepared by natives of 
the culture it represented.

The meal was served buffet-style, kept up by members of the 
International Club. The members also dressed in traditional 
costumes of their countries, adding a colorful flair to the 
occasion.

A few of the dishes served were quiche from Japan, Kurma, a 
chicken dish from Bangladesh, fried rice from China, potato 
salad from Germany, coconut salad from Marianna Islands and 
shishkabobs from Iraq.

After dinner, guests were entertained by such features as 
Chilean songs, Latin American dances, Republic of China 
(Taiwan) dances and Iranian dances.

Piper said 375 people attended the dinner and they were forced 
to turn several people away. Those who were lucky enough to be 
admitted had the opportunity to sample any dishes they chose.

Despite the large turnout, the organization just broke even on 
the dinner. "Mostly, they do it to share with people here the 
culture and food of their countries," Piper said.

"I thought it was very good for everyone (the guests) to get 
acquainted with people from other countries," junior Fiorella 
Rojas said. "And, we enjoyed sharing our countries with them."

A second family

Many barriers are placed before a person visiting a foreign 
country. Different language, new customs and religious beliefs 
separate the two nationalities.

International students on campus have been given the opportunity 
to experience American customs and family life through "Project 
Host Families."

The project, sponsored by the Red Cross and the Student Senate, 
finds international students a local home to stay in during holidays 
and spring break since most of the 360 international students are 
unable to return home for the breaks. The residence halls close over 
Christmas and spring breaks, leaving more than 40 international 
students without rooms, Fran McKinney, international student adviser, 
said.

Many of the students use the vacation as an opportunity to travel, 
visit other friends in America or go home with their roommates, but 
the majority are left with a Kirksville motel as their only alternative, 
McKinney said.

"Host Families" was started four years ago when the halls first 
started closing for Christmas and spring breaks. The Red Cross 
stepped into handle the initial arrangements while the University 
informed the students. McKinney said that many of the foreign 
students are too shy to go into the home of an American family. 
But for those applying, the Red Cross does as much as possible 
to prevent mismatches.

The process of positioning the students is not a difficult one, 
David Brunberg, Red Cross chairman for international students, 
said. When students sign up, they fill out a questionnaire stating 
preferences. Families wishing to share their home with a student 
do the same, specifying regulations they might have, such as no 
smoking. The surveys are then matched as nearly as possible to 
ensure that both parties are satisfied.

McKinney said that students are placed not only in Kirksville, 
instead most enter homes in Milan, Greentop, LaPlata, Macon and 
other area communities.

The family and student are then introduced several weeks before 
the stay and keep in touch by phone to make final arrangements.

A second family

The success of the program is evident through the number of 
students being hosted by families. Junior Rashid Malik, 
secretary of Student Senate, said each of the 30 students 
applying was placed in an area home over the Christmas break. 
For spring break, 35 families have already applied and Malik 
expects hosts to be found for the other seven students looking 
for host families.

Brunberg and his family have hosted students in the past and 
will continue to host them this year. "These are fine students, 
top notch. They're a delight to have around. We still correspond 
with many of the students we have kept."

By going into an American home, the students learn customs and 
facts that they would otherwise never know. "They (international 
students) live so far across the ocean. They like to mingle with 
the American culture. It gives them something to carry home," 
Malik said.

He said that the visit helps foreign students overcome the 
stereotypes they have of American people. "In my country 
Americans are seen as having a negative attitude--no positive 
attitude."

The students who attend the University will leave with greater 
respect for America and the host family will have "a greater 
understanding of the people of the world," Brunberg said. "It 
creates goodwill among the two countries because those students 
will go home and become leaders."

Many American holidays are not practiced in other countries so 
that most foreign students do not realize their significance. 
"Traditions can be more meaningful if Americans share the holiday 
with international students," Malik said.

When the students leave the host family, they do take a piece of 
America with them. "They keep in touch and we expect them to carry 
on," McKinney said. "Usually the family asks the student back for 
another visit."

Through the international "Host Families" program two countries may 
be brought together. "If we don't come to know each other, we can't 
overcome the barrier that lies between us," Malik said. "We can share 
the same point of view to peace and love." ECHO Story by Martha Daniels

A world of difference

"It took ten minutes to get on the elevator," graduate student 
Sheela Sathaye from India said, referring to her experience in 
New York City during a layover enroute to the University. "I 
pressed this button and that button, and didn't get off onto 
my floor until a half-hour later."

Junior Eyad Al-Jundi from Syria said during soccer practice one 
day, the coach asked him "Are you trying to pull my leg?" "He was 
standing pretty far away from me, so I asked him how I could be 
pulling his leg. When he told me that he meant 'Are you kidding?' 
I wondered why he didn't just say that," Al-Jundi said.

Culture shock. All foreign students have experienced it to some 
degree. Ruth Bradshaw, writing specialist, said culture shock is 
"anytime a student encounters a situation that is totally outside 
of his experience, and perhaps has difficulty dealing with, such 
as language, culture, food, religion or environment."

Junior Rashid Malik from Bangladesh is a faithful Bulldog fan. 
"NMSU has given me a lot. I feel an obligation to give back what 
I can." Malik said he thinks of culture shock when he thinks back 
to a home basketball game against Washburn University (Kan.). 
Washburn was winning by one point, but in the last few seconds, 
Senior Gary Bussard was fouled, shot two free throws and won the 
game. Malik said, "I was so excited, I ran onto the court and gave 
Gary a kiss on the cheek. This was the only way I knew how to express 
my true feelings.

"Some of my friends didn't think I should have done that because men 
here (in America) have a different way of expressing their true 
feelings toward each other," Malik said. Bangladesh makes no distinction 
between women as friends and men as friends. "We hug each other, and 
hold each other's hand when we talk. To us, these are not sexual 
implications."

"People just don't always understand what happens to the foreign 
student trying to adjust," Bradshaw said. "The student is almost 
reduced to a child-like dependency on anyone who shows an interest 
in him.

"The bewilderment he feels is somewhat like that of what a 
kindergartener would experience if tossed in high school."

American cuisine seems to be one of the most common adjustments 
facing foreigners.

Sophomore Hythm Aziz Haffar from Lebanon said that the typical 
American meal of cheeseburgers and fries is much lighter than 
that of where he is from. "I'll eat, but in a few hours, I'm 
hungry again."

Senior Osamu Ishikawa from Japan said that he thought the food 
was higher in calories. "Many foreigners tend to gain weight 
here." 

Sathaye said she was bothered most by the bland smell of meat. 
"It makes me sick because we use many spices in India. I often 
mix my cafeteria food. I can just imagine what others say. 'Oh 
gosh, what in the hell is she doing.'" Sathaye said she loved 
the variety of ice cream flavors, sherbet, and peppermint 
candy--all of which were new to her.

Basically each foreign student experiences different adjustments. 
A year at the University may introduce foreign students to the 
first snowfall, and the first chance to buy blue jeans, to the 
first experience in using silverware. However, one condition which 
affects all foreign students is prejudice. Malik said America's 
nickname as a melting pot of the world was deceiving. "I was a 
little shocked because I thought Americans were civilized.

"I can understand why some students would be prejudiced; they're 
young. But, even some people in high positions on campus hold 
prejudices." Malik said.

Senior Gerald Canelas from Bolivia said Americans were single-minded. 
"I have become Americanized. When I go home, I will be selfminded. I 
have turned quiet here minding my own business. I will experience a 
shock when I return home." ECHO Story by Pat Rollins

CLASSICS for fall, sweater sets and ties are modeled by sophomores 
Aimee Thompson and Tonya Yancey. Traditional wardrobe pieces were

DUCK SHOES and legwarmers were donned by many students this year. 
Freshmen Linda Stevenson, Roxanne Woods and Yolanda Holbrook wear 
theirs for a walk across campus in the cold.

Like everything, fashions come and fashions go. Crew cuts, letterjackets, 
lovebeads, bell-bottom jeans, hiking boots and portable cassette players 
have all found a place at the University at one time or another.

In a year of conservative politics and economic difficulty many students 
turned to more classic and durable forms of dress.

One of the more popular and long-lasting of the fashion trends was the 
preppy look. Prep dressing reeks of tradition. Although the look is 
fashionable, it is also durable and can be worn for several years. Nancy 
Barber, who owns part of the Daffodil clothing store, said the economy 
was partly responsible for this type of durable dressing. "When the economy 
is bad, people do more investment dressing than other times," she said. 
"A lot of people buy less and buy better."

Jim Miller, president and owner of Mister Jim's Inc., said traditional 
clothing for students is a big seller for him. However, when it comes 
to high fashion, that is another story as far as he is concerned. "When 
you talk about high fashion, we won't buy it."

He said he sells mostly sportswear such as sweaters, shirts and casual 
slacks. He sells men's and women's clothing but said he thinks women 
students are more fashion-conscious than men.

"There are a lot of guys that are fashionable, but if I had to lean one 
way or the other I'd have to say the women (are more fashionable)," he 
said.

"The only reason they change fashion is because they know women will go 
out and buy a whole new wardrobe. It stimulates the market," sophomore 
Linda Scaglione said. She added that she did not think the students here 
were fashion conscious. "Maybe the students in Baldwin Hall are, but not 
as a whole," she said.

Dorothy Snyder, owner of Snyder's Style Shop, said she believes students 
are getting to be more fashion-conscious, but, "It takes about a year for 
it (a new fashion) to catch on here."

Snyder said she ordered some of the short skirts last year because they 
were supposed to be popular on the East Coast, but they did not sell here. 
More have been ordered for this year because "They say they're going to 
be coming this way," she said.

Jim Troester, one of the owners of Troester's Clothing, said he believes 
students are aware of the fashion trends. "I think the student is 
definitely dressing better, more so than five years ago."

Troester said a popular selling line for his store with students is Ocean 
Pacific, and commented on the difference between its popularity here and 
on the West Coast. Here he sold mostly gray, blue and tan slacks, but on 
the West Coast, orange, green, red and purple are popular selling colors 
for men.

Not all of the year's trends qualified as practical and durable.

"A touch of punk is around," junior Kevin Pipkins said.

Characterized by flamboyant colors and unusual combinations of clothing, 
this trend has shown up in the short skirts (generally made from sweat 
shirt material), tennis shoes (hightops in hot pink) and possibly the 
most infamous of all, the punk haircut.

This haricut is short on top and longer on the back and sides. A streak 
of magenta or royal blue was added near the temple for versatility.

Pipkins said out of the punk craze, the haircut seemed to have caught on 
the best. "That has definitely hit everybody smack on top of the head."

Fashions seem to fall into neat categories although the categories range 
from the practical to the unique. One glance around campus though 
indicates that the various categories tend to merge together depending 
on individual tastes.

Into what classification do those students out running around campus in 
Nike tennis shoes and baggy sweatpants fit, especially those whose pants 
are so baggy they put shorts over them? What about students with safety 
pins in one ear, or if not in an ear then adorned with beads and pinned 
to a shoe?

To varying degrees students conform to fashion trends or deviate from 
more conventional modes of dress. Either way the students dictate the 
look of the year. ECHO Story by Chris Wayland

For those who wish to overcome their problems, Bridleway House 
helps them

It is unlike any other house in Kirksville. Fourteen people living 
and working together, each striving to turn his life in a positive 
direction. Each resident is different, but each shares a common 
problem, alcohol or drug abuse. These people are the residents of 
the Bridgeway House Transitional Care Center, Inc.

The Bridgeway House is a 24-hour, seven day per week residential 
center for people with substance abuse problems. The staff at the 
House provides a supportive and therapeutic environment to help 
residents: (1) learn to live without alcohol or drugs, (2) form new 
positive relationships and interests, (3) secure and maintain gainful 
employment, (4) become self-sufficient individuals, (5) re-establish 
family and community contacts and (6) become responsible and 
contributing members of their respective communities.

The facility opened in September 1981 and had its first resident in 
November of that year. The house has a capacity of 14. "The residents 
are responsible for running the house, they do all the cooking and 
cleaning themselves," Marcia Petit, substance abuse counselor, said.

It is a coed familiy living situation. As of January 31, 1983, 83 
people have lived at the house.

"Some people are here overnight for detoxification, instead of 
spending the night in jail," Petit said. Another program the center 
offers is a three to five day detoxification program. The staff uses 
a social setting detoxification program, which assists the clients in 
withdrawal of alcohol without the use of medications.

"Ninety days is the average stay for a person," Petit said. Residents 
can stay as long as they want within reason. If a person is just using 
the house as a place to stay and not working in some positive manner 
they may be terminated, she said.

Residents of the house may be self-referred, referred by agency 
professionals, private individuals or private and public organizations 
within the community. "The Division of Family Services sometimes refers 
people to us so they can get their children back," Petit said.

Probation and Parole also refers clients to the house. "Their crimes 
may have been related to their substance abuse, in that situation they 
can choose between jail and the Bridgeway House, but the decision is 
theirs."

After the detoxification period, residents begin to work themselves 
back into the com-

munity. Some are students at the University, some work and others 
are looking for jobs, Petit said.

Residents are allowed visitors approved by the staff, Petit said. 
"We have to approve visitors because they might try to bring 
something (drugs or alcohol) in." Anything like medicine or aspirin 
which could be abused is locked in the office and distributed by the 
staff, she said.

Another part of the Transitional Care Center, Inc. is the outpatient 
clinic located in the Pfeiffer Building. Petit said some of the people 
continue their counseling there after leaving the house. The clinic also 
serves the general community as well as those on the waiting list of the 
house.

The house is staffed by seven employees: A house manager, an assistant 
manager, a fulltime substance abuse counselor, two part-time counselors 
and two night staff. The house is financed through grants by the State 
Department of Mental Health. Those residents who work contribute 
one-fourth of their salary each time they are paid. Those residents 
who do not work apply for food stamps. "We average about $250 on food 
alone," Petit said.

A typical day at the house for the residents consists of an all-house 
group discussion in the morning, free time in the afternoon which usually 
includes individualized counseling with their primary counselors and 
doing their duties around the house. Then there are group discussions 
each evening on topics such as drug and alcohol abuse, job skills, 
assertiveness, values and general rap sessions.

The residents are closely monitored. "They may leave the house but we 
have to know where they are going and when they'll be back," Petit said. 
The house has curfews, periodic searches and periodic urine tests. "If a 
resident is found having any alcohol or drugs it is immediate termination," 
she said.

The Bridgeway House also uses University students as volunteers or for 
practicum credit. Petit worked for practicum credit while in school. "I 
learned a lot. You do a lot of what the regular staff does. You do not 
have as many clients because you don't have the time," she said.

Bridget Thomas, graduate student in psychology, said that she worked at 
the house and the outpatient clinic. "I worked with an outpatient 
counselor and a client and sat in on the group discussions at the 
house.

"I led a group discussion and organized crafts as creative outlet for 
the residents," she said. Of her experience Thomas said, "I learned 
that people with problems are just everyday people that have problems."

Before establishing the facility, the staff and board of directors 
attempted to establish the house in a residential section of Kirksville. 
Residents living in that area were opposed to the idea, Petit said.

Petit said that public awareness and knowledge of the program was 
lacking at the time.

A positive aspect of the house environment is the residents realize 
they are not alone with their problems. Each resident is able to get 
feedback and gain insight from each other. There may be rules and 
curfews, but as Petit said, "It is a small price to pay to change your 
life." ECHO

Troubled waters

Citizens of Kirksville had known for three years that a new lake 
would be built in the city, but it was not known until November 
how the new Hazel Creek Lake would be managed.

In 1980, the City Council passed an ordinance which banned the use 
of outboard motors on the lake. But in the winter of 1981 the city 
was approached by the Missouri Conservation Commission which asked 
to take control of the management aspects of the new lake. The 
Commission's offer would have allowed 10-horsepower motors to be 
operated on the lake. In addition "all management of the lake 
enforcing hunting and fishing regulations would be provided by the 
Commission," Kirksville City Manager Bill Galletly said.

After that offer, the City Council rescinded the 1980 ordinance and 
accepted the Conservation Commission's offer.

Controversy arose after the Council's decision to transfer control 
of the lake from the city to the Conservation Commission.

A petition, sponsored by the special interest group FATE (Citizens 
for a Tranquil Environment), began to be circulated in the summer of
1982. The petition asked that the issue be brought to a vote of the 
people.

Supporters of the petition argued that any use of gasoline-powered 
motors on Hazel Creek Lake could lead to raising the horsepower limit 
and could eventually affect the safety of the water for drinking 
purposes. Hazel Creek Lake was built to replace Forest Lake as the 
city's primary source of drinking water.

After acquiring the minimum 700 signatures on the petition, the issue 
was placed on the November 1982 ballot as an ordinance. Voters passed 
the ordinance proposed by FATE and the lake will now be limited to 
fishing and sailing only. No outboard motors will be allowed on the 
lake, which is scheduled to open either this spring or summer.

Although the issue of recreational limitations was settled in the 
November election, the issue of how the city will manage the lake 
was not.

Terry Smith, dean of students and member of the Kirksville Parks 
and Recreation Advisory Board, said the decision of the voters not
 

(Page 61)

to have the Conservation Commission maintain the lake may mean that 
no one will be managing the lake. The city may not be able to afford 
the maintenance costs.

Smith said the Conservation Commission had offered to build boat ramps, 
patrol the lake and have agents on the land to enforce hunting and 
fishing regulations. By voting to deny the Commission's control, the 
citizens of Kirksville "blew off a great opportunity to have a well-managed 
lake.

"If there is no proper management of the watershed, then there might be 
some funny stuff draining into that lake," Smith said.

Smith said he disagreed with the use of 10-horsepower motors on the lake 
but liked "even less the possibility of no regulation.

"I hope the people who supported the ordinance and saw it win get the 
clean water that they want, but they may not," he said.

One of the concerns the city will face in management of the lake will 
be drainage from local farmlands, Smith said. Herbicides entering the 
lake from farmlands could possibly poison feeding areas. Pesticides 
could enter the food chain of the animals living on the lake, and 
fertilizers could cause an abundant growth of weeds in the lake. He 
said the Commission would have been better able to prevent such drainage 
because of better resources and facilities to do so.

Galletly, said the drainage can be controlled by the city. "The city, 
by state law, has power to protect water source in drainage basins" 
with the use of restraining orders, which would prohibit farmers from 
using chemical control agents near the lake.

Smith said such a restraining order would be like "telling the farmers 
to discontinue their livelihood."

Galletly said the lake will be operated by the city's utility department 
as a water source only. "No arrangements or plans have been made to set 
up (recreational) facilities at the lake." He said recreation is a second 
priority because the city does not have the funds to operate the lake as 
both a water source and recreational area. Kirksville Mayor Jerry Thomas, 
said the city may ask the Conservation Commission to manage the lake 
without the use of boat motors.

Thomas said he has talked to representatives about partial maintenance 
of the lake, but nothing has been done formally. He said since Hazel 
Creek is located on publicly owned land the Commission will have some 
responsibilities to regulate fishing and hunting anyway. "We really 
haven't got everything concrete with them."

The water line connecting the lake with the city has not been completed, 
Galletly said. The lake is expected to start supplying residents with 
water late in the spring or in early summer 1983. He said much of the 
planning depends on the amount of moisture received this spring. The 
lake is not yet filled with enough water to operate. ECHO

New junior high
 

(Page 63)

For 50 years, Ophelia Parrish rang, with childish activity, but 
now it occupies the Quiet corner

Something seemed to be missing in August when school started. Although 
the absence was not immediately seen or felt by everyone, eventually 
students began to notice that part of campus had been deserted.

The kids were gone--no more early morning band music for the quad-crossers' 
enjoyment, no more before-school smokers, no more daily bus loadings and 
unloadings, no more 12-year-olds hanging out in the Student Union 
Building--in short, no more on-campus junior high school.

Beginning in August, Ophelia Parrish Junior High School was vacated 
and the junior high students were moved into the brand-new school on 
Cottage Grove Street next to the Kirksville Senior High School.

This left the University with an empty building that is now being used 
as storage, and Doug Winicker, campus planner, said there are no 
immediate plans for the old school. Winicker said the University 
will request funds for a planning study from the $600 million bond 
issue passed by Missouri voters in June. If the money is appropriated, 
a study will be done on the facility to see how it can best by used by 
the University.

For now though, a building that was for years an integral part of 
campus, sees only a limited amount of activity.

In the early 1920s, when the then State Normal School for teachers 
was expanding, an agreement was made between the college and the 
Kirksville public school system to have a public school on campus 
that would be used as a lab school for student teachers.

Bill Matthew, superintendent of Kirksville Public Schools, said the 
Ophelia Parrish School was originally built in 1923 and was used as 
a lab for student teachers on the secondary level. Greenwood Elementary 
School, which is still in operation a block from campus, was used as 
the lab school for elementary school student teachers.

Matthew said all people who student taught did so at one of the two 
facilities.

Eventually, the Normal School expanded, diversified and became something 
more than a teacher's college. Then, Matthew said the need for a lab 
school diminished and it was at this time student teachers began to 
go to other places to complete the student teaching requirement, 
although some remained in Kirksville.

Senior David Gregory completed his student teaching requirement in 
the new junior high in the fall and said he thought the school was 
a great improvement over the Ophelia Parrish facility.

"It's (the new junior high) lOO percent better. The new facility has 
a greatly improved learning environment. In the old junior high, 
everything was really run-down. Now, the new atmosphere is bright 
and cheerful. I think it enhances the student's learning and behavior," 
Gregory said.

Although having an on-campus school was convenient for education 
majors who had to do their pre- and student teaching there Gregory 
said he thinks having a nice facility to practice teaching in is 
worth the extra distance involved to reach the new junior high.

Gregory did his pre-teaching in Ophelia Parrish and was also a junior 
high student there himself. When he was a student there, he remembers 
that going to junior high school on the University campus was a bit of 
a distraction. He said there was a lot of activity that is not available 
to the kids in their new location.

In the past, some University students complained about having a 
school-full of junior high-aged students on the same campus. Gregory 
lived in Missouri Hall for three years in a room on the northwest 
side of the hall that faces the Ophelia Parrish School. He said 
there

A LONE CHAIR occupies Room 118 of Ophelia Parrish where junior high 
students once attended classes. The building was used for storage 
purposes until the University found other uses.

WHILE THE STUDENTS WORK, graduate student Vicki Morrow and junior high 
English teacher Rebecca Osborn discuss a question. Classroom observation 
is required for education majors.
 

(Page 64)

were certain problems associated with the school such as traffic 
obstruction due to the buses that arrived and departed twice a day. 
He said the junior high school students were not careful with 
University property and often abused it with trash.

Junior Don Easter also lived in the section of Missouri Hall that 
faces Ophelia Parrish, and he can see a change that has taken place 
since the kids left campus. "It was really no big deal," he said, 
"just once in a while they would kind of bother us. Sometimes they'd 
yell out the windows when we were out in the grass playing softball 
and every-so-often, you might see one or two of them wandering around 
the hall where they didn't really belong."

The biggest difference he sees is the lack of noise in the morning that 
the buses generated. Easter said he thought the kids were probably happier 
having their own facility and not having to be part of a campus where 
they did not really belong.

Roger Little, principal of the new junior high, said he also thinks 
there were a lot of problems associated with having the school on a 
campus.

"We had a lot of what I would call traffic problems that just don't 
exist now," he said. "When we were on-campus, most of our problems 
were related to outside distractions, like traffic along the east 
side of the building, bus-loading problems and noise from Missouri 
Hall. Also, we used to lose a lot of kids, especially before school 
when they went to the Student Union. Now, they come here and they 
stay here. We don't lose them."

Little also said the school has been able to expand its programs 
because of its nearness to the senior high school. The two schools 
cooperate, and both have been able to offer increased programs.

"We're trying to make the most of our new location. They (the s
tudents) get more choices. They like it. We (the teachers) like 
it. All in all, we're doing a better job." ECHO

A late-night fire caused two student gathering places to go 
Up in smoke

By noon most of the campus had heard of the fire that destroyed 
Too Tall Tuck's Old Place and the Adair County Family YMCA the 
night before.

The blaze was reported to the Kirksville Fire Department by the 
Kirksville Police Department at 1:27 a.m. The department sent two 
engines to investigate the report of smoke near the square.

When the officers saw the smoke bellowing from the site they called 
for assistance from off-duty personnel and the Mutal Aid Fire 
Department from LaPlata.

Firemen fought the blaze until it was brought under control about 
9 a.m., then continued to observe the buildings throughout the day.

Five firemen were injured in the blaze on North Elson in uptown 
Kirksville, Jan. 21.

At one point during the night it was thought the blaze might spread 
to the nearby Adair County Detention Center and preparations were 
made to move the residents if necessary.

Also, the owners of other businesses on the square were notified of 
the fire.

Nearly 400 University students were members of the YMCA at the time 
of the fire, and the program cancellations and relocation of facilities 
has had an unfavorable impact on them.

Junior Darryl Beach said, "The main reason I belonged was to use the 
sauna and weight machine. Occasionally I would play racquetball, and 
now they can't offer any of that."

After the fire, the 'Y' was temporarily located in the Chamber of 
Commerce Office on Franklin Street. The YMCA relocated at Leisure 
World, east of Kirksville, but YMCA Director Charles Glass said, 
"We'll be leaving relatively soon. We're still looking for a 
permanent location. At this point there are a couple of options, 
but we don't really know what we're going to do. We would like to 
build, perhaps with the aid of a community fund drive."

Karen Brents, youth program director, said the first thing she 
thought was, "Oh my gosh, I don't have a job!" And of course, 
she was not alone.

Senior Brian Neubauer, a recreation major doing a practicum at the 
YMCA said he was worried he would have to make new plans.

"We thought the 'Y' staff was just starting to become a family when 
we lost our home (the YMCA building). But, we feel there's real hope 
for the future now," Konna Blackman-Billington, YMCA secretary, said.

Too Tall's was one of the more popular local bars as far as the college 
crowd was concerned, but Drew Bentschler, who was manager, said no 
definite plans to reopen have been made. "Alan Barber, the owner, 
says we will reopen, but it depends on a lot of things, like 
insurance settlement and so forth," Bentschler said.

Early reports on the cause of the fire were conflicting

The building in which both the YMCA and Too Tail's were located was 
owned by NOMO, Inc.

Investigators for the corporation's insurance company originally 
determined the fire was accidental and electrical in nature.

However, the fire was confirmed as arson by the Adair County Sheriff's 
Department in early February. They also determined that the fire started 
in the YMCA. No further information or suspects have been released to the 
public.

The injured firemen were treated for smoke inhalation and minor frostbite 
at Grim-Smith Hospital, and they were all released over the next few days.

Once in the Blue Moon

Without the comforts of home-cooked meals and faced with the 
threat of cafeteria food, students are forced to find a restaurant 
that serves good food at a reasonable price. In this search students 
have discovered the Blue Moon.

From the outside, the building appears sedate and unassuming. Some 
people might even pass it by to opt for a more pretentious 
establishment.

Once inside the restaurant, the hospitality and good food make up 
for the exterior of the building.

"Don't expect the greatest scenery," junior Marty Rodgers said. 
"It doesn't have the scenery of Wendy's, but the food is better."

A welcome sign hangs on the wall. It might take a while to spot 
it, though, in all the nostalgic clutter that is decor. The sign 
reads "Blue Moon, Welcome, Thank you for your patronage." Actually 
it reads "Thank you for you atraonag"--a few letters have gone by 
the wayside, but no one seems to mind. It is signed Pearl, Quick 
Rick and Quicker Fay.

Pearl Russell, her son Rick Russell and Fay Dobbs are responsible 
for all the home-cooked meals served at the Blue Moon.

"I enjoy it, but it's work. It takes up all my time," Mrs. Russell 
said. She and her husband bought the restaurant 14 years ago.

"It was a tavern when we bought it. We really didn't have anything 
to lose because we didn't have any money to start with," she said. 
She added the restaurant has paid off.

"I would say it is primarily the college that really built us up."

Senior Greg Summers said he has been going to the Blue Moon since his 
freshman year. "It just sort of became a habit to go down on a Saturday 
afternoon for lunch."

There are as many reasons for going to the Blue Moon as there are 
students that go there, and then some.

"They give out free Tootsie Rolls. That's the best part."--Teri Brain

Senior Bob Cundiff said, "It's kinda nostalgic. It's homey."

Shari McDonald from Ashland, who was visiting Cundiff, said, compared 
with the food at McDonalds the food is much better at the Blue Moon.

"They give out free Tootsie Rolls. That's the best part," senior Teri 
Brain said.

Another quality of the Blue Moon that students find pleasing is the 
reasonable price of food. Russell said she can afford to serve large 
portions of food at a reasonable price because she does not have a lot 
of overhead costs.

"You can get more for your money," senior Jan Schmidt said. "The food 
is great. They give you so many fries you can hardly eat them all."

There was one thing that Schmidt could not explain about the Blue Moon. 
"It's the only place I ever eat onions on my hamburger." Laughing, she 
made several attempts to explain this phenomenon, but in the end she 
just could not.

Senior Cindy Kennel said the food is better than any of the fast food 
places. "It has more of a home-cooked flavor as opposed to processed 
and packaged. There is that phrase again, home-cooked. Fast food 
restaurants and cafeteria food have met their match--the Blue Moon. ECHO

Night refresher

There is life after classes, at least for anyone over 21. No one 
confuses Kirksville night life with that of New York or Hollywood, 
but there is a wide variety of bars to choose from. From bars with 
a country and western flair to bars with a nightclub atmosphere, 
Kirksville has it and most of the bars make an effort to attract 
the college crowd.

Bars such as Chatter's try to establish a special atmosphere. 
Inside Chatter's, Greek fraternity and sorority letters and a 
giant stained-glass bulldog adorn the walls to help give the 
bar a college atmosphere. "I would say we are a college bar. 
We bring in a lot of businesspeople, but the college makes all 
the difference," Chatter's manager Dan Vogt said.

Senior Klarissa Kratky said Chatter's is a quiet bar. "It's a 
nice place to go for drinks and lots of conversation."

Besides using appealing decoration, Chatter's and other bars use 
appealing prices to bring in students. Specials such as ladies 
nights, happy hours, two for one bar drinks, and 25 cent draws 
are favorite crowd attracters.

According to senior Mary McFarland, however, low prices and specials 
are just the suds that top off the brew. "Specials are fine but that 
is not the only reason I go to any bar. I go in order to relax and 
get away from the pressures of school. The specials just help you get 
looped without spending too much."

Senior Karen McBee, McFarland's roommate, agreed, but she thought 
J.R.'s Ladies Night was one special that did make a difference. 
Every Thursday night, women receive free drinks from nine until 
midnight at J.R.'s. "Thursday night is a good night to go out 
anyway, and who can pass up free drinks?" McBee said.

Bartender at J.R.'s, Mike Pherigo, said Thursday nights are "total  
terror mixed in with a lot of fun." Pherigo said it helped to be the 
craziest bartender in town.

Besides this promotion, J.R.'s is getting away from being just a 
country and western bar. "The country and western fad is declining 
and we are changing with the times to appeal to more people," co-owner 
Randy Hindman said. "The music we play is our most noticeable change. 
We are playing more rock and Top 40 now."

The music played at each establishment is important to its success. 
"I really don't have a favorite bar in town, but if I feel like 
dancing, the only place I go is the Oz," senior Jane Iaun said. 
That is the attitude of many students and co-owner Steve Williams 
uses that feeling to his advantage. "Dancing is our drawing card. 
The Oz isn't just a bar; we've tried to give it more of a nightclub 
atmosphere."

with careful aim, junior dudley thomas prepares to throw a dart at 
Chatter's as his competitor, junior pat ryan, looks on. Chatter's opened 
this year and displayed fraternity and sorority letters.

a beer for each hand, senior keith konigsmark, points someone out to 
his roommate, junior jeff harper, at the Oz. The Oz offered quarter draws 
all night as a st. valentine's day celebration.
 

(Page 72)

Night refresher

Interaction with students and campus activities is important to 
Williams and his cabaret. "We make a special effort to help out 
college organizations whenever we can," Williams said. "In the 
past we've donated all proceeds during our St. Patrick's and 
Valentine's Day parties to the Student Senate Emergency Loan Fund 
and raised money for the softball team's spring trip."

The Wanderer also realized the importance of a dance area and closer 
ties to the University. Owners Randy Treasure and Dan Regagnon, senior, 
try to appeal to the rock 'n roll faction. "We use live bands, rent out 
the satellite service to beam in live concerts and are putting more 
importance on dancing to bring in the college crowd," Treasure said.

Like the Oz and their nightclub atmosphere, the Wanderer tries to set 
a special tone. "We try to have a party atmosphere here, like walking 
into a house party. The biggest thing we try not to do is limit ourself," 
Regagnon said.

Chatter's, the Oz and The Wanderer all have their unique qualities but 
undoubtedly the best bar located below street level is The Tap Room. The 
only bar below street level, The Tap Room, located under Travelers Hotel 
has undergone many changes in its clientele in the last couple of years. 
"I'd say we used to be a college bar but that has changed. Probably about 
80 percent of our customers are town residents," bartender Jerry Hartsock 
said. "We still do a lot of business with the college crowd on Thursday 
nights, but this bar is for the serious beer drinker and pool shark."

Junior Sherri Martin continues to go to The Tap Room. "I like coming 
here because Jerry is my favorite bartender and the people are more 
laid back, at least during the afternoon."

Despite the promotions, the dancing, the bartenders and the specials, 
some people still don't really care for the bar scene. "I used to be 
wild, but now that I'm older I really don't care about going to the 
bars. They are all right for a change of pace, but I could get along 
without them," senior Geri Funke said. ECHO Story by Dudley Thomas

tough competition

There have been a lot of threats on the radio since Feb. 14, and 
all of them tell listeners to get tough, or more accurately, "Get 
TUF, Punch 93."

Since its Valentines Day premiere, KTUF-FM has used its "TUF guy" 
slogan to attract listeners to the new station. The promotion, along 
with other advertising strategies, sparked interest among students 
who wondered about KTUF's programming. "I plan on listening to KTUF 
to see what kind of music they will play.

ON THE GRAVEYARD SHIFT, junior Keith Greenwood watches the first 
turntable as he cues a record on the second one. Greenwood keeps 
the music going from midnight to 6 a.m. on weekends.
 
(Page 75)

TOUGH LUCK forced Kirksville's new radio station KTUF-FM to 
change the placement of its antenna. The stained glass sign 
appeared in the window just before the station went on the air 
Feb. 14.

PONDERING which cut to send out over the airwaves next, KTUF disc 
jockey junior Steve Heston examines an album. Heston is on the air 
weekend mornings from 6 a.m. to noon.

ON THE PRODUCTION SIDE of the booth at KTUF, senior Jeff Young 
prepares an advertisement. Young and junior Steve Heston alternated 
between the weekend morning and evening shifts.

I like KRXL; they play good music, but there are too many interruptions," 
junior Lori Robinson said.

Promotion for KTUF was a big concern since it would be competing against 
long-established radio stations in the area. As another advertising 
strategy the station distributed posters, bumper stickers and T-shirts 
displaying its slogan.

"We also put ads in both of the town papers and on TV," James Keller, 
station manager, said.

Keller and Irvin Davis are co-owners of KTUF. "Actually he (Davis) is 
the real owner. He owns most of the stock. You might just call me an 
employee with stock," Keller said.

Keller said there were several reasons Kirksville was chosen as the 
site of the new station. "When we filed with the Federal Communication 
Commission, there were six channels open in the state. We chose Kirksville 
because we liked the size of the community, not just because it was a 
college town," Keller said.

Once preliminary preparation had been made the station began the hiring 
process. Keller said the hiring process was competitive. "We taped about 
25 applicants and six more tapes were mailed in. We also interviewed each 
individual to find out more about their personality."

Familiar voices were heard when the new commerical radio station went on 
the air. Two former KRXL announcers were hired. Bill Collins was hired as 
the program director and Rosemary Stolzer signed on as an announcer. KTUF 
also hired four University students as weekend announcers.

The four student employees of KTUF are also familiar to campus radio 
listeners. Juniors Steve Heston and Keith Greenwood and seniors Jeff 
Young and Bill Fish are all mass communication majors with experience 
at KNEU, the campus radio station.

"KNEU would have been somewhat good experience. KTUF will give me better 
experience as far as being on the air," Greenwood said.

Heston said his job was valuable "mainly because of the commitment Mr. 
Davis and Mr. Keller have made to us (Heston, Young and Greenwood) to 
stay with us in the future as far as our career goals are concerned."

At KTUF the responsibilities are greater than those of announcers at 
KNEU and the broadcast reaches a much larger audience.

"It's very, very valuable to get actual on-air commercial experience. 
It's the real thing," Young said.

Besides the experience the station offered its new employees, it also 
gave students a new experience in listening. Opinions and listening 
habits covered a wide range of tastes.

"We listen to it a lot, probably 4 or 5 hours a day. It's better than 
KRXL," freshman Joel Anderson said.

Other students were not as excited about the new station. Junior Denise 
Bowman said she does not listen to the station a lot, but she does listen 
when the news is on KRXL.

Sophomore Kelly Howard said she likes the new station and listens to it 
a lot. "It's better than KRXL; it has newer music," she said. Howard also 
said she thought having a station on the air 24 hours a day was good.

With KTUF's sign-on only a week away, KRXL also went to 24-hour 
broadcasting. Scott Troutman, KRXL program director, said this 
change had been considered for a long time, but the new competition 
was a factor in the decision.

The two stations differ even in their 24-hour broadcasting formats. 
KTUF broadcasts live at all times while KRXL remains automated from 
midnight to 5 a.m. and for a few hours during the day.

Troutman said the companion AM station, KIRX, broadcasts a live 
country and western show from Nashville, Tenn., all night long, 
so the announcer at KIRX could run the automated program for KRXL 
at the same time.

(Page 76)

Competition

The competition has affected KRXL in other ways. The loss of 
Collins and Stolzer to KTUF hurt KRXL a little, Troutman said. 
"Losing two full-time people hurts any small operation." But, 
Troutman said KRXL had enough staff to take over. "We were really 
overstaffed when we were preparing to go 24 hours. KRXL has had to 
make some adjustments."

While both stations compete for the same audience, employees of KTUF 
and KRXL said the competition was good.

"It's kind of neat having competition. It can't do anything but good 
things," Troutman said.

"Competition between KTUF and KRXL will keep pressure on both stations 
to keep up good programming and to better serve the community," 
Greenwood said.

Even before KTUF went on the air, problems arose. Its entry into the 
Kirksville area was not a smooth one. KTUF was to be on the air in 
October but ran into technical difficulties.

"We were late getting our station on the air because we had to lower 
our antenna. It took about three months to go back through the FCC to 
get it changed. The tower stands about 444 feet to the top of the red 
light, but our antenna is only 300 feet high," Keller said.

A cable runs from the studio's transmitter across the street to a 
microwave antenna which beams the stations's signal to the tower 
site outside of the town to be decoded and distributed.

Once these problems were solved, KTUF was ready to broadcast, aiming 
for the 19-35 year-old audience with a format consisting of 
country-rock and mainstream rock leaning into country.

Keller is modeling KTUF's format structure after a similar one 
implemented when he worked at the campus radio station at the 
University of Missouri-Rolla in 1972.

KTUF employees said the new station offers a lot to students. 
"The most obvious advantage is 24-hour a day live programming. 
The programming is aimed more towards students. Our ultimate 
goal is just to see our station go on the air, but to be 
successful you have to sound good," Keller said. "You have to 
have good sales and good programming. Without good programming, 
you can't have good sales. It's all got to fit together." ECHO

Program

Viewers of Kirksville television were given a second choice when 
K40AI went on the air Dec. 6.

The low-power UHF station is owned by KTVO.

"K40's license is held by KTVO, Inc., which in turn is held by 
Post Corporation of Appleton, Wis. They also have interests in 
radio and printing ventures," Dean Weitenhagen, KTVO program 
director, said.

The station was originally scheduled to go on the air Nov. 1, 
but had to go back to the Federal Communication Commission for 
permission to move the antenna.

"K40 is totally automated. Only one person is actually working 
out there. She is NMSU senior Rhonda Sterling," Weitenhagen said. 
"She puts all the commercials together on tape."

"I work parttime. They allow me up to 20 hours per week, but it 
usually only takes me around 12 hours to put the commercials on 
a separate videotape and to put the cue tones in," Sterling said. 
"My official title is K40 tape editor. With the cue tones I insert, 
the commercials are sent to the satellite and then broadcast over 
the air," Sterling said.

"We are not trying to take viewers away from KTVO because a lot 
of the programming is geared for specific interest," Weitenhagen 
said.

"The bulk of K40's programming is three satellite networks," he 
said. "Satellite Program Network (SPN) runs through the majority 
of the day; it consists of variety, special interests and all 
kinds of lifestyle programming. Finan-

cial News Network (FNN) is completely financial news. Ag Day 
is a half-hour hard agricultural news program that runs in 
the morning."

K40 is on the air seven days a week from 7:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. 
FNN is on seven days a week, but for only two hours a day.

"We're in the process of trying to get the Public Broadcasting 
Service (PBS) to give us some children's programming in the 
mornings, such as Sesame Street, etc.," Weitenhagen said.

"Owning a UHF station is a great way to get into TV and to serve 
the public," he said.

Another reason for the harmony between the two stations is the 
small broadcasting range of K40, which will only be received by 
television sets within a 20-35 mile range from KTVO. Viewers in 
LaPlata, Hurdland, Downing, Worthington, Green City and Winigan 
should receive it.

K40 operates at a fraction of the power allocated stations on the 
VHF band.

KTVO's antenna is 300 feet and K40's is 290 feet. "You can't pick 
up a UHF station without a UHF antenna unless you live within two 
miles of the station," Weitenhagen said. K40 is 1,000 watts while 
KTVO is 100,000 watts.

"We hope, in the near future, to get everyone to put up a UHF 
antenna. It's relatively inexpensive, $20, and it will give the 
people program alternatives," he said.

"I don't care for K40 because it's not youth-oriented. Every time 
I turn it on, there are always talk shows. I don't like that," 
senior Lori Robinson said. ECHO

Cheap movies
 
(Page 79)

Cheap thrills

Students have a choice. On a typical Friday, there are six different 
movies to choose from. They start at 2 p.m. and run in intervals until 
midnight. They cost from $1.50 to $3.50.

When it comes to movie viewing, students see different films for 
different reasons. "I go for the movies. I usually like the later 
shows. If they have a midnight show, I go to that show," junior 
Mike Myers said.

Junior Ann Tibbitts said she goes to Student Activities Board movies. 
"It's cheaper, and the movies are good."

Senior Roy Pettibone goes to the discount prime-time shows at the 
Kennedy Theatre and the Petite Three Cinema "all the time when they 
are available and if the time is right, because they're cheaper." He 
does not go to SAB movies. "Usually I've already seen the movies," he 
said.

Although most students say they like the idea of having low-priced 
shows, most said they would probably see a movie if no discounts were 
offered.

"The price isn't that bad here in Kirksville. If it's a good movie, 
I'll go see it," Myers said.

Senior Kathy Yates said, "I would go if I heard good enough stuff a
bout it from friends."

"If I want to see it, I'll see it," freshman Michele Eckert said.

"Price is not the answer, because when you raise the price, not a 
person says a word about the increase. Because of inflation they're 
used to everything going up," Glenn Boner, manager of Petite Three 
Cinema, said.

Boner said 10 to 15 percent of their business comes from students; 
he said he felt audiences at the late show at 9:30 p.m. were about 
80 percent students.

The students have presented only one problem, Boner said. The problem 
comes when students use coupons from the Index, which are a $ 1 discount 
for one of the three movies at the cinema, and then go into a different 
movie when they get inside, Boner said.

"We try to give the students a break (with the coupons), and they abuse 
that. They don't understand that we have blind checkers in the theatre 
on a given night," he said.

Blind checkers are sent to the theatres to count the number of people 
actually viewing the movie. Then they check that number against the 
number reported by the theatre, Boner said. The amount the cinema is 
charged is based on the number of people who attend the movie, he said.

Boner said college students are great movie goers, and the movies that 
seem to go over best are action-type movies. People want to see 
"something they can relate to also," he said.

"Deathtrap" was probably the most popular movie for SAB this year, 
sophomore Scott Ewing, SAB movie committee chairman, said.

There was an excellent crowd reaction to the movie, freshman Susan 
Plassmeyer, co-chairman of the committee, said.

With average audiences of close to 1,000 people per night, SAB made 
money on every movie but two, "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "Rocky 
III," Ewing said.

SAB usually shows 14 movies per semester at a cost that varies from 
$50 to $1,500. "But most of the time we don't have to pay full price 
because we get a package deal," Ewing said.

"Raiders of the Lost Ark" was the highest priced movie costing about 
$900, Plassmeyer said.

The movies that make the most money are movies like "Psycho," which 
cost less to rent because they are older but are popular with students, 
Ewing said.

SAB obtains the movies from three companies. "They send us a product 
reel of recent and not-so-recent movies," Ewing said. The committee 
then chooses from 20 to 25 movies and then narrows it down to 14, he 
said.

Ewing said SAB could get more recent releases during the semester if 
the schedule of movies did not have to be filled out ahead of time.

Since food and drink are not allowed in Baldwin Hall Auditorium, where 
SAB films are shown, they run into a problem with food smuggling. "We 
have had trouble with people bringing pop, candy or alcoholic beverages 
in. If we see them in line with it before they go in, we pull them out 
of line and ask them not to take it in or not to go in," Ewing said.

To find the total amount of money taken in at each movie, each SAB 
cardholder is counted as having paid 25 cents for admission, Plassmeyer 
said. There are at least twice as many cardholders as noncardholders 
attending the films, she said.

The discount prime time show at the Kennedy Theatre costs $2. Junior 
Kevin Groff has been employed at the Kennedy Theatre for about a year 
and a half. He said the Kennedy offers a discount on prime time shows 
because they are shown at inconvenient times for most people. The prime 
time shows are the early shows Monday through Thursday and at 4:30 or 
5 p.m. on Friday, Saturday and Sunday depending on the length of the 
movies, he said. About one-third of the prime time audience is students, 
he said.

Although students like the prime time shows, they do not seem to like 
the student discount cards given out by the Kennedy which are good for 
a 50 cent price reduction on all regularly priced shows, Groff said. 
"They pitch'em or something. Maybe one out of ten uses them," he said.

The midnight movies have been more successful than the discount cards 
and are attended mostly by students, Groff said.

"Last year we had a couple of 300 crowds. Usually we have about 90 to 
100; 150 to 200 on big nights," he said.

The length of time a movie runs at the Kennedy is determined by two 
factors, Groff said. Some movies must be shown for a certain number 
of weeks if the theatre wants to get them while they are early in 
their run, he said. Although they may have to keep a movie for a 
minimum length of time, they may usually keep it for as many weeks 
after that as they want, he said. The decision to hold a film over 
or not is based on how well it does over the weekend. "The decision 
is made Monday morning," Groff said. ECHO Story by Mark Snow

A festive atmosphere

On most Saturdays, one hears nothing in Baldwin Hall except occasional 
muffled footsteps, perhaps the droning of a vacuum cleaner, punctuated 
by the clear ascending notes of trumpet scales. Activity is sporadic. 
But on one Saturday each spring, Baldwin Hall pulses with the inflamed 
beat and inspired melodies of jazz--all kinds of jazz: the racy and the 
mellow--all of which are brought to Baldwin in a program for high school 
students called the Phi Mu Alpha Jazz Festival.

The University chapter of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia, a men's honorary music 
fraternity, began sponsoring the jazz festival 15 years ago, Roger Cody, 
professor of music, said. During the first two years, the festival was 
noncompetitive. "We invited four high school bands to play for us, the 
public and each other. From the third year on, it's been a competitive 
festival." Also during the third year, evening concerts by the newly-formed 
University Jazz Ensemble and a guest artist, trumpet player Clark Terry 
were added as festival activities. "The format has remained the same; 
competition during the day and concerts with the University jazz ensembles 
and the guest artist in the evening," Cody said.

Much planning goes into the festival, some of which begins a year in 
advance. "The smoothness of the jazz festival is brought about

(Page 81)

by the cooperation of the Sinfonia members, the college faculty 
and the (Fine Arts) division," sophomore Scott Davis, jazz festival 
co-chairman, said.

"Rooms in the Student Union were reserved last March and preliminary 
invitations were sent during the fall," junior J. D. Henman, jazz 
festival co-chairman, said. "Doc (Cody) does most of the work; he 
knows what judges he wants; he gets a professional musician as a 
guest artist. He keeps track of transportation, where the judges 
stay and makes sure we do our job," Henman said.

The competition takes place simultaneously in Baldwin Auditorium and 
the Activities and Georgian rooms in the Student Union Building. For 
effective communication between the three areas, field telephones were 
used; one in Baldwin Hall parking lot to monitor the bands when they 
arrived and usher them to the warm-up room at the proper time; one in 
the Division of Fine Arts Office, which served as the main station to 
check in the bands, and one in the SUB that "helps because we don't 
have to run back and forth between the Union and Baldwin," Henman said.

During the jazz festival, many jobs are divided between the fraternity 
members. "We have a person who keeps time. We have people selling 
tickets, chairmen at each section who watch what goes on and 
doorkeepers," who make sure no one goes in and out during a band's 
performance. Set-up crews arrange stages according to each band 
director's preference and members of Sigma Alpha Iota, a women's 
honorary music sorority, volunteer as runners who work with the 
judges, getting ballots from them to take back to the main station, 
Henman said. The day begins at 7 a.m.

The jazz festival is essentially a fraternity project, with the 
Division of Fine Arts contributing some necessities such as facilities 
and printing costs and help from SAI, Cody said.

"The fraternity is large and good; there's lots of manpower to greet 
bands, ushers, etc. We've had a lot of years to perfect, find all the 
bugs and by trial and error arrive at a very good format. It's the most 
effective, best organized and run festival I've ever been associated 
with," he said.

Indeed, the Phi Mu Alpha Jazz Festival has earned a luminous reputation 
among its peers. "It's grown to be one of the most famous jazz festivals 
in the Midwest and is by far the largest in Missouri," Cody said. "We 
have excellent facilities to do this and our location is good; it's 
equally-centered to get the good programs from Des Moines (Iowa), 
Kansas City and St. Louis. You couldn't have a more central location."

This year, nine judges, mostly college jazz band directors or 
professional musicians, listened to 44 high school jazz bands. 
"We tend to get a number of the same bands year after year," 
Davis said. In spite of travel costs, bands come from as far 
as Lebanon, Mo., and Des Moines, Iowa, Cody said. "In the past 
we've had bands from as far as Chicago (Ill.)."

The tradition of the guest artist has helped build a solid reputation 
for the jazz festival. The selection of a guest artist runs a four-year 
cycle. This year a drummer or rhythm person, next year a trumpet player, 
then a trombone player, then a sax player, then a rhythm player again, 
Henmen said. "That way the students get a taste of an artist in each 
area if they come every year."

This year, an appearance by renowned drummer Les De Merle capped the 
evening's activities. Originally from New York, De Merle started playing 
drums when he was 16 with vitraphone player Lionel Hampton. He has 
worked with Sammy Davis, Jr., singer Anthony Newley and the Manhattan 
Transfer. He currently plays with trumpet player Harry James and has 
his own group, the Les De Merle Transfusion.

De Merle said he frequently works with students and musicians in a 
clinic situation. "It's standard for me to do a thing with local 
musicians," he said. A clinic typically lasts about one and one-half 
hours of "just drumming, then we break down styles and open up for 
question-and-answer. Of the University jazz bands he played with, De 
Merle said, "I am really knocked out by the dedication both bands have 
and how good they sound."

The jazz festival "caters to kids from smaller schools; many of them 
leave high school and don't pick up their horns again," Davis said. 
"They get the benefit of hearing better bands and a guest artist that 
plays for a living. If they want to go into music, this gives them an 
idea of what to shoot for, even if they just want to keep playing in 
college."

"Phi Mu Alpha's goal is to promote music in America and this is one 
of our activities," senior Bret Kuhn, Sinfonia member, said. "The 
students work harder and do more practicing in preparing for the 
competition. They get to hear better bands, so it's educational, 
and they get to hear the University Jazz Ensemble and guest artist 
at night. It's a pretty healthy atmosphere."

"The jazz festival does a lot of PR for Kirksville and the University," 
Henman said. "It's a big help in the number of people we have going to 
this school." Because the festival is rated in the top ten high school 
festivals in the United States with only one or two having more bands, 
Kuhn said, "It really helps recruiting."

After all the meticulous planning, the running around and double 
checking, it is easy to see why the members of Phi Mu Alpha take 
such pride in their work. "My shins hurt at the end of the day, 
but it was a real joy," Henman said. ECHO

Weird pets 

(Page 83)

Curious companions

When most people think of domestic pets a dog or cat is the first 
to come to mind. But how many animal lovers would consider a 
tarantula, a pirahna or even a snake as a house pet?

"I bought a tarantula because it was a different kind of pet," 
junior Joe Ippolito said.

"When I saw the spider sitting in his cage, I felt sorry for him. 
He was in the sunlight, and tarantulas aren't supposed to be in 
the bright light. It was totally an impulse buy," Ippolito said.

Obtaining food for a tarantula is not very difficult, and often 
times it's even enjoyable.

"He eats any kind of insects, but crickets are his favorite delicacy," 
Ippolito said. "During the summer I go outside and catch grasshoppers 
for him. Even when I do buy crickets they're not expensive.

The fallacy surrounding the tarantula is that it is a big, ugly, hairy 
and poisonous killer. In reality, the spiders are virtually harmless to 
humans.

"Their venom isn't strong enough to kill a person. Even if he did bite 
you, it would only feel like a pin prick and have essentially the same 
effect," Ippolito said.

"I take him out of his tank a couple of times a month to let him walk 
around. In the time since I've bought him, he's never bit me," he said.

What do Ippolito's parents think about him owning a tarantula?

"At first my mother didn't like it. It really didn't bother my father, 
but now my mom's used to it. I bought 'Prong' here in Kirksville when 
I was a freshman, and when I go home for the summer, I just load up his 
tank into our car," Ippolito said.

The piranha is a fish that has been around for thousands of years. It 
has, and rightly so, the reputation of being an eating machine. 
Pirhanas travel in schools and have been known to strip a cow to the 
bones in a matter of seconds. The largest natural home of the piranha 
is the Amazon River in South America.

"They're exciting fish because they're so mysterious," senior Chris 
Carlson said.

"I love to watch him eat. I feed him goldfish, and he chows on them 
like a buzz saw. His teeth are as sharp as razor blades. One time I 
bought twenty-five goldfish and threw all of them in at once. 
'Foodchain' ate all twenty-five in three days, but usually I only 
feed him one a day like vitamins," Carlson said.

Taking care of a piranha is similar to caring for any other fish. 
The tank must be cleaned periodically, and the water must be changed.

"I clean the tank about twice a month," Carlson said.

"I bought him in Chicago with the tank and filter, all for 30 bucks."

Students aren't the only people with exotic pets. Sal Costa, instructor 
of psychology, is the proud owner of three snakes.

"I have a smoyed, a chow chow and a king snake," Costa said. "They're 
harmless, totally nonpoisonous. I used to have a six and one-half foot 
boa constricter."

What drives a psychology instructor to keep such different pets? "Snakes 
are easy animals to care for. They don't stink; they're easy to feed. 
I serve them live mice. It's an intriguing pet," Costa said.

Not all pets are exotic, but not all pets fit into the category of 
domestic either. Whether pets are as common as goldfish or as exotic 
as piranhas, their owners enjoy keeping them. So the next time a friend 
talks about his pet, remember, it may be man's best friend, but it may 
not be a dog. ECHO Story by Scott Chovanec

North American species are not poisonous.

WITH CARE, sophomore Joe Ippolito places his pet tarantula "Prong" on 
the arm of sophomore Scott Chovanec. Ippolito has never been bitten by 
his pet although a bite would be like a pin prick.

Poll booth

Some did not vote. Others voted because it was their civic duty. 
There were even the few who went as far as becoming politically 
involved.

Being politically involved could range from studying the political 
process, being a campaign volunteer or even running for an office. 
Each has his own view of the political process.

The 1982 general election "indicated some unhappiness with the party 
in power, but that's not unusual in an off-year election," James 
Przybylski, assistant professor of political science, said.

"I didn't think it (the election outcome) was overwhelming. It did 
lay down the foundation for something to occur in 1984," junior Dennis 
Coons, president of the Young Democrats, said.

There was a clear choice to either stay with Reaganomics or to change 
the course, sophomore David Thompson, president of the College 
Republicans, said.

Thompson said, "Students are far more realistic of what can be done. 
Money is simply not there." Republicans, he said, had gotten their 
story out to the students that government has spent money too long. 
"You cannot spend yourself into prosperity.

"I didn't like the cutback in student loans," Thompson said. But he 
said students must do their part.

As a result of the 1982 election, "Reagan will have trouble in making 
domestic cuts," Przybylski said. Student loans and student aid will 
probably not be cut too much more, he said.

Coons said the 1982 election sent a signal to the Reagan administration 
as witnessed in Reagan initiating a jobs program in Congress.

Part of this signal came from the statewide race for Missouri's U.S. 
Senator's position. Incumbent John Danforth and challenger state senator 
Harriett Woods battled with about 50 percent of the vote each. In one of 
the closest races of the year, Danforth won with 51 percent to Woods' 
49 percent.

To Woods' advantage was the state of the economy, a fresh face, and 
not having a national record to run on. For Danforth, being a moderate 
Republican, an incumbent and having a lot of money was enough for him 
to pull out a victory.

Campus opinions reflected the statewide outcome of the election. During 
the fall 1982 semester a systematic poll of 439 students was conducted 
by a public opinion and pressure groups class, a course taught by 
Przybylski

Of the students from Missouri polled, Danforth received 32 percent to 
Woods' 27 percent of the vote. Eighteen percent were undecided with 
the poll being taken appoximately two weeks before the election.

Forty percent of the men polled supported

(Page 85)

THOUSAND HILLS Farm is one of the places Democrat Harriett 
Woods campaigned for the U.S. Senate. In a close race, Woods 
was defeated by incumbent Senator John Danforth in November.

EXPLAINING his stance on election issues, state Rep. Larry Mead 
talks with students at a College Republicans meeting. Mead was 
an unsuccessful U.S. Congressional candidate.

Danforth to 23 percent for Woods with the remainder undecided. 
Of the women polled, 30 percent supported Woods to 27 percent 
for Danforth. The remainder was undecided.

An exit poll was taken by graduate student Shaun Baskett. "Women 
were more vocal about their objection to Woods than men," she said. 
The exit poll for a St. Louis television station also indicated men 
were more likely to vote for Woods.

Shirley Morahan, assistant professor of English, said at first people 
may have dismissed Woods as a woman with a narrow focus but then 
realized her focus was broad enough to prevent her dismissal. "Women's 
issues cover every issue you can think of," Morahan said.

An independent, Morahan began supporting Woods in the Democratic 
primary, and after her victory, Morahan became Woods' campaign 
coordinator for Adair County.

The role of the independent is becoming more significant according 
to the recent and past polls conducted by the public opinion and 
pressure groups class. From 1980 to 1982 the percentage of students 
considering themselves independents rose from 22 percent to 43 
percent.

During the same time the students considering themselves Republicans 
or leaning Republican stayed relatively the same, at about 30 percent 
while the percentage of students who consider themselves Democrats or 
leaning Democratic dropped from 49 percent in 1980 to 27 percent in 
1982.

"It is part of a long term trend of going to independence," Przybylski 
said. "Having a Republican administration, it becomes more acceptable 
to be a part of that party."

Being an independent, Morahan said she chose to support Woods not 
because of Woods' party affiliation, but because she thought Woods 
was a good candidate. To Morahan, it was a clear-cut campaign and 
the candidates were very different in their stands.

"Mrs. Woods showed ability of putting together an old-time 
Democratic coalition," Thompson said.

About the close race Przybylski said, "At the end she (Woods) 
was more the unknown factor--(people) wanted stability."

The poll also questioned whether students would go see candidates 
campaigning in the area, and more than 40 percent said they would.

Instrumental in hosting many of the candidate receptions were the 
College Republicans and the Young Democrats.

This year, Thompson set up a new program in which each member of 
College Republicans would be a contact person for local candidates. 
If that candidate needed any help he could call his campus coordinator 
who would help organize the needed project.

Thompson said both sides then benefit. The candidate receives help 
in his cause and the student gains from being actively involved.

Likewise, the Young Democrats set up a similar program. Coons said 
he set up groups of students. He explained that some students are 
more liberal than others, and the students would then work for a 
candidate they aligned with politically.

Student efforts consisted of anything from serving as gofers for 
such things as napkins and food to working with the local party 
headquarters and the candidate himself.
 
(Page 86)

Poll booth

Thompson said the idea of actively campaigning for local candidates 
is part of the learning process. "In politics you grow from the grass 
roots level up."

Democrats from the community along with the Young Democrats, developed 
a highly organized door-to-door campaign to canvass Kirksville, Coons 
said. The Young Democrats had more contact with community Democratic 
officials than in 1980.

As Woods' coordinator, Morahan said she had students coming to her 
identifying themselves as Woods supporters and wanting to get 
involved.

The act of voting also became more involved. The 1982 election had 
several amendments tacked to it.

"Few people are willing to spend the time and effort to understand 
all the issues," Przybylski said. However, he sees the long ballot 
as a continuing trend, especially with the Hancock Amendment 
encouraging it.

Przybylski said with the long ballot he sees potential for interest 
group manipulation. Interest groups will have the time and resources 
to promote their side.

Baskett said some voters were prepared and had done their homework on 
the issues before they voted. "It shows the public is coming (to the 
polls) more educated. I thought that was impressive."

However, Baskett said the exit poll showed people were confused by the 
length and language of the amendments.

In the election aftermath presidential hopefuls began to announce their 
intent for the bid to be the next U.S. president. Thus elections are 
connected by the continuous political process.

Przybylski continues teaching political science courses and likewise 
Morahan continues teaching literature classes.

Coons has since taken an internship in the Lt. Gov. Kenneth Rothman's 
office at the state capital. Thompson went on to become president of 
the Adair County Pachyderm, an organization which meets periodically 
to talk about political issues and which is also active in organizing 
county campaigns.

Baskett continues as a graduate student along with her teaching duties.

With the election over it was time to start new pursuits. During the 
winter, Reagan visited a St. Louis factory which was hiring more 
employees. The visit was to illustrate that Reaganomics is working. 
While in the St. Louis area Reagan stayed away from the Dioxin--polluted 
town of Times Beach. Some said Reagan was beginning his campaign for 
re-election, yet in a more subtle way than the leading Democratic 
challenger Walter Mondale.

During the 1984 election, as always, some will never vote. Others will 
vote because it is their duty and a few will even become politically 
involved. ECHO Story by Kevin Smith

AFTER CLASS, senior Evan Beatty talks to Republican state 
representative candidate Bobbie Madsen as James Przybylski, 
assistant professor of political science, looks on.

A QUESTION raised by senior Greg Lane is directed toward 
incumbent State Representative Hary Hill (D-Novinger) in 
Congress and the Legislative Process class. Hill was a 
guest speaker for the class.

A balancing act

Campaigning and politics are an art in themselves

"It's tough," graduate student Sue Yenger said. Yenger was elected 
to the Iowa state senate in 1978 and in the 1982 election faced 
re-election as a Republican.

Yenger lost in a Democratic district of 56,000 constituents.

Since the election, Yenger has become a student and is working toward 
a master's in Human Resources Management.

When first elected to the senate Yenger was one of only two women 
senators.

"There's a bond in politics, we (women politicians) are supportive of 
each other despite parties," Yenger said.

Ironically, it was the women in her district who questioned her ability 
to balance her duties as a mother and hold her job, Yenger said.

Yenger had the support of her husband, a former public official, and her 
teenage children. Coupled with the fact the legislative sessions consume 
less then a third of the year, she felt she could do a good job in both.

Although working in the framework of the Republican party, Yenger said, 
"I saw myself as an independent." She was not a puppet and was even able 
to build a coalition of Democrats.

"Common sense and maturity play a vital role," Yenger said in campaigning. 
"People won't come to you, you have to go to them."

As a senator, Yenger set up constituency listening posts, invited the 
public to hearings, and organized trips from her district to the 
capital city.

The universal issues of Social Security, jobs and the economy were 
present in the Iowa district. Yenger said the public tends to tie 
the problems of these to the party in power at the time and in this 
case it was the Republicans.

Yenger said, "People were scared." She felt the Democrats made more 
substantial gains in the election.

From her experience as senator, Yenger said she has learned that 
people do not want two things: bigger government and more taxes. 
They are "naive until it affects their pocket-books. They want 
government to solve their problems with ease but don't want to 
pay for it."

Yenger said the bulk of the power in government comes from the 
bureaucracy. As senator, one of her areas of concern was the 
consolidation of bureaucratic agencies. Under the current system, 
five or six agencies are involved, but Yenger said the total needs 
of a client should be handled by one agency.

After the election, Yenger received conflicting feedback from her 
constituency. Some said she was too visible. Others said she should 
have taken a stand on certain issues While still others said she 
shouldn't have taken a stand on any issue.

"People perceive things differently," Yenger said.

Perception just may be the key to politics. ECHO

UPDATE 1983

Times Beach, Mo. was unknowingly contaminated by Dioxin, a byproduct 
of herbicide production. The contamination was complicated by flooding 
in December.

Gov. Christopher Bond proposed a plan to the state's Housing Development 
Commission which would help Times Beach residents relocate in permanent 
housing.

Several University students lived near or in Times Beach and were more 
worried about the flood damage than the Dioxin.

Sophomore Marty Rodgers of Times Beach, said, "Almost everything had to 
be thrown away. We salvaged a few minor things."

The government offered to buy out residents of Times Beach, and those 
who decided to stay did not have much company.

Proposition C appeared on the November ballot, proposing a one-cent 
sales tax to benefit local schools. The issue was approved by voters 
by a narrow margin.

One-half of the revenue generated by the tax will go to public schools, 
while the other half will be used to reduce property taxes within local 
school districts. Kirksville will receive about $724,320 per year of 
the funds.

Kirksville school districts will receive $364,621 in new revenue. 
Seventy-five percent of the revenue will be allotted to the teachers' 
fund and the remainder for general funds.

Part of the money generated by Proposition C will also go toward the 
maintenance and improvement of Missouri's roads.

Gov. Christopher Bond made a proposal to the General Assembly in January 
for more than $6 million for the first phase of renovation to Pickler 
Memorial Library. He also included an additional $3 million in his 
proposal for the renovations of Violette Hall.

Bond told reporters at a news conference in PML Jan. 13 that if the 
Assembly approved the proposal during that session, the bonds could 
be finalized by June 15 and construction could begin in November or 
December.

Under the $600 million bond issue passed by Missouri voters in June, 
$255 million has been proposed for capital improvement projects 
throughout the state.

A CAPITAL IDEA is announced by Gov. Christopher Bond at a Jan. 13 
press conference in Pickler Memorial Library. He suggested that the 
General Assembly appropriate $6 million for a library wing which would 
be built where Laughlin Building now stands. Bond also requested another 
$3 million for Violette Hall renovations. This money would come from the 
issuance of bonds from the $600 million capital improvement bond issue 
which was passed by Missouri voters last summer. Also scheduled for 
renovation when funds become available was Science Hall.

In slightly more than two years, Poland's Solidarity, an independent 
union federation, drew some 9 million members and raised a loud cry for 
freedom from the Soviet bloc.

In December 1981, Gen. Wojciech Jaruzelski, leader of the Polish 
government, imposed martial law on Poland and suspended the union. 
Solidarity leader Lech Walesa protested the action and was put in 
custody along with 600 key union members.

On Aug. 31, 1982, the second anniversary of the founding of Solidarity, 
demonstrators fought with police in the streets of 59 communities in 
Poland. Five demonstrators were killed, 4,000 were arrested and 148 
policemen were injured. Walesa was released Nov. 14 after the government 
said Solidarity was finally extinguished.

On March 30, 1981, President Ronald Reagan was shot by would-be assassin, 
John Hinckley, as he was leaving Washington's Hilton Hotel.

The President recovered quickly, but the gunman wounded Officer Thomas 
Delahanty, Secret Service agent Tim McCarthy and Press Secretary James 
Brady. Brady was the most seriously wounded.

In June of 1982, Hinckley was tried and found innocent by reason of 
insanity, triggering angry reactions.

Today, Brady suffers from some brain damage and partial paralysis and 
Hinckley is in a psychiatric hospital.

Menachem Begin's cabinet announced they were occupying West Beirut in 
mid-September "to prevent the danger of violence, bloodshed and anarchy." 
Within 48 hours, anti-PLO Christian Phalangists relentlessly attacked 
Lebanese refugee camps, slaughtering at least 800 innocent men, women 
and children. Israeli forces looked the other way.

The following week, about 15 Palestinian supporters gathered on the 
mall in front of the Student Union Building, bearing signs which 
protested the recent massacre.

"Our goal is to let the American people know what is going on in our 
part of the world. The students are not informed on exactly what is 
going on there (Lebanon)," junior Salam Abdel-Khadel said.

The protestors urged the American government to take action, not by 
manpower involvement, but by stopping arms sales to Israel.

"We are not fighting the Jewish people; it is a religion. We are 
fighting Zionism and the inhuman treatment of the Palestinians. 
Zionism is the government of Israel, not the Jewish people," 
Abdel-Khadel said.

IN PEACEFUL PROTEST, freshman Muhammed Mustafa dons a sign to make 
his views on the massacre of Lebanese refugees in West Beirut apparent. 
Palestinian students demonstrated outside the Student Union Building 
on Sept. 24. By talking to students, administrators and staff, they 
hoped to express their outrage at the killings and their wish that 
the United States would cease the sale of arms to Israel. The 
demonstration resembled those in Lebanon and Beirut except for the 
lack of violence and the number of protesters.

UPDATE 1983

After a long struggle to get the Equal Rights Amendment ratified by 
the 38 states required to make it law, supporters of the amendment 
only received ratification from 35 states and had to admit defeat.

Equal Rights supporters tried desperately to get the Illinois state 
house to ratify the amendment by the June 30 deadline to no avail. 
Ratification by the Illinois house would have given supporters the 
necessary numbers when states who had ratified but wanted to rescind 
their votes were included in the count.

After the November elections, the "woman vote" was judged a decisive 
factor in. four gubernatorial races, in New York, Michigan, Texas and 
Connecticut.

The third Tel-Alumni campaign exceeded its $70,000 goal during its 
four weeks of operation in late October and November.

Campus organizations took turns at the telephones, soliciting alumni 
pledges and competing to raise the most money.

Junior Tim Boozan won the individual award for raising the most money 
with a total of $4,465. Delta Chi took the overall honors with a total 
of $4,933.

Tel-Alumni is part of Project 1990 which is attempting to raise $10 
million for scholarships and the University general development fund. 
The project uses students to call University alumni for contributions. 
The fund-raising effort has met its goal in each year of its operation.

CLASSES WENT ON for students in the Organizational and Professional 
communication class taught by linnea ratcliff, associate professor 
of speech. during a bomb threat to the administration/humanities 
building last fall, instructors were given a choice as to whether 
or not they would dismiss their classes and evacuate the building. 
ratcliff decided to evacuate the building but chose to take her 
class into the unseasonably warm weather and conduct her lesson 
on the steps of the mall. no bomb was found in A/H.

(Page 91)

ALL STRECHED OUT, William Corbin, visiting associate professor in 
the Division of Language and Literature, waits to be lifted into an 
ambulance. On Nov. 17, Corbin fell in the debate room on the third 
floor of Laughlin Building and injured his hip. Corbin was in the 
hospital and had to have surgery. Corbin was unable to return to his 
classes until the spring semester. In his absence, other instructors 
in the division filled in and taught his classes.

Violette Hall was evacuated Oct. 11 after Maxine Goodwin, switchboard 
supervisor, received a call about three bombs hidden in the building. 
The caller said the first bomb was to go off at 11 a.m. The building 
was evacuated shortly before the designated time and classes resumed 
at 12:30 p.m. after the building had been searched.

Another threat was received on the following day for the 
Administration/Humanities Building. The building was searched 
but no bombs were found. Safety and Security notified division 
heads and secretaries. Instructors were left with the decision 
about whether or not to hold classes.

No bombs were found after any of the campus threats. The Kennedy 
Theater and a local church also received threats, but they also 
proved to be false.

Two Dobson Hall residents were treated for smoke inhalation Nov. 
11 after a smoke bomb was set off in the hall. The Kirksville Fire 
Department found the homemade bomb and sent it to Jefferson City 
for investigation. No leads were found.

The world came to Knoxville, Tenn., for the World's Fair. The fair 
opened May 1 and closed in October.

More than 65,000 people toured the exhibits every day. One of the 
most popular exhibits was a display of antiquities from the People's 
Republic of China. The fair also featured the 1,500 seat Tennessee 
State Ampitheater which was designed for shelter and acoustics and 
offered a panoramic view of the fairgrounds.

The structures on the fairgrounds were designed to be dismantled and 
either sold or recycled after the fair ended.

On Dec. 15, Wednesday of finals week, a power failure occurred in 
Pickler Memorial Library, the Student Union Building, Baldwin Hall 
and the Administration/Humanities Building.

The power failed at approximately 7 p.m. Wednesday. By about 7 a.m. 
Thursday, power was restored to the SUB and A/H. The power in Baldwin 
Hall and PML, however, was not restored until late Thursday afternoon. 
Both of the buildings were open, but many of the finals scheduled for 
Thursday in Baldwin were moved to A/H.

UPDATE 1983

After three years of construction, Normal Street became a 
throughstreet from the University to Osteopathy.

The street was designed as a clear route for emergency vehicles 
without railroad tracks to detain them. The street was converted 
from a primarily gravelled road to a 30- to 36-foot wide asphalt 
route. The plan also required a railroad overpass.

The cost of the construction was about $270,000, which was paid 
for with federal funds. Federal Aid to Urban Projects paid for 
75 percent of the work and a federal community block grant funded 
the rest.

Not all facelifts the campus received were external. Several 
University offices were moved between the spring and fall of 
1982.

McKinney Center underwent major changes. The Public Relations 
Office moved from McKinney to a newly renovated office on the 
second floor of the Administration/Humanities Building. 
Publications, Sports Information and the Alumni Office were 
also transported from McKinney to newly - created office space 
in the bowels of A/H.

The Career Planning and Placements Office moved from Blanton/Nason 
to occupy the vacated space in McKinney. The campus mailroom and the 
University switchboard remained in the building.

In addition to all its inner changes, McKinney had new bricked 
sidewalks installed, some landscaping done and a new sign erected 
in front of it in the spring of 1983.

The space vacated by CPPC in Blanton/Nason was restored to its 
original use as residence hall rooms to ease the housing crunch.

Several social science instructors' offices were moved from the 
Laughlin Building to space near Publications:in the basement of A/H.

ADMINISTRATIVE DUTIES are a part of Dr. John Biggerstaff s job as 
director of the student health clinic. After many years as the 
director of the facility, Biggerstaff retired in the spring of 
1983. He graduated from the Kirksville College of Osteopathy and 
Surgery in 1940 and operated a private practice for the next several 
years. He was hired by the University on a part-time basis in 1952. 
Biggerstaff was the only physician at the clinic, but he also 
maintained a staff of registered nurses and a receptionist.,

After threats of strike, players in the National Football League 
officially walked out Sept. 21, 1982. Union leader Ed Garvey 
negotiated with team owners for eight weeks before discouraged 
players went back to salvage the remainder of the season.

During the strike, team owners lost $38 million a week and players 
lost $7 million a week, not to mention the millions lost in parking 
charges and concession sales.

When the players came back to play, the teams competed in a tournament 
to decide who would go to the Superbowl. The National Football 
Conference East champions, the Washington Redskins, defeated the 
American Football Conference East champions, the Miami Dolphins, 
27-17.

(Page 93)

A RAILROAD OVERPASS spans the newly-completed addition to Normal 
Street, providing a non-stop throughway from Franklin to Osteopathy 
streets. The construction was implemented to make a route clear for 
emergency vehicles. With three hospitals in different parts of the 
city, the Kirksville City Council decided a through street would 
speed up transportion between the facilities as well as provide 
convenience for other motorists. The project took three years to 
complete and caused hassles for the residents in the area who had 
their streets torn up during the construction.

December 1, 1982, was a landmark in medical history. The day was 
made famous by the permanent implantation of an air-powered 
artificial heart into Barney Clark.

Clark, a 61-year-old retired dentist from Des Moines, Wash., was 
dying of heart disease when he volunteered to undergo the 
experimental surgery.

The bionic heart was designed by Dr. Robert Jarvik and implanted 
by Dr. William DeVries at the University of Utah Medical Center.

Clark suffered a setback Dec. 7 while still in an intensive care 
unit. His condition was downgraded from "serious" to "critical" 
after suffering an attack similar to a stroke. His condition 
stabilized by Dec. 8.

Thousands of people flocked to Washington D.C. on the eve of Veterans 
Day to search through 57,939 names of men and women who died or 
disappeared in Vietnam. Most of the visitors were friends and family 
who went to mourn their loss, but many bystanders went just to see 
the effect of the polished black granite memorial, etched with names 
of people they never knew.

Carved in a hillside, the black granite memorial, designed by Maya 
Ying Lin, was a sharp contrast to the city's other memorials of white 
rising skyward.

The memorial was funded by the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund. More 
than $7 million was raised from some 500,000 donors.

Age difference

When an average five-year-old leaves for school he usually goes 
no farther than the local kindergarten.

At least one five-year old traveled to the University to begin her 
college education. No, she is not a child prodigy, but freshman Dana 
Veltrop is only five years old, in leap years that is.

Veltrop was born on Feb. 29, which only comes once every four years. 
In 1984 she will have celebrated her birthday only five times. 
Counting the years in which there is not a Feb. 29, Veltrop is 
actually 19.

One problem with having a birthday which only exists once every four 
years is when to celebrate in off years. Veltrop celebrates on Feb. 
28. "My parents decided to celebrate my birthday then to keep the day 
in February."

Veltrop said that in leap years the birthday celebrations have a 
little different meaning.

"Every four years my birthday is a little special because it's really 
my birthday," she said, "but usually I celebrate my birthdays the same 
way."

When completing forms Veltrop always uses Feb. 29 as her legal 
birthdate. "I've never had any problem with it (her birthdate). 
Most people just take it for granted and don't think about Feb. 
29 being an unusual birthdate."

Some people, like Veltrop, take for granted the unusual circumstances 
of their birth and simply celebrate their birthdays as though a leap 
year birthday was as common as any other. ECHO Story by Bee Bokelman

JUST A YOUNGSTER, freshman Dana Veltrop can count only four birthdays. 
Being bom on Feb. 29 may have its disadvantages, but not every 
4 3/4-year-old is smart enough to be in college.

Kidding around

When the kids at the Child Development Center arrived one morning, 
they saw that one of their supervisors was not an ordinary supervisor. 
"At first some of the kids were kind of shy but I would just get down 
on their level and that creates interest like, 'What's this guy doing?'" 
junior Darren Blair said. Blair was the only man working at the center 
during the year. He is also one of the few men to ever work in the 
predominantly female area. Blair was a mass communication major but 
lost interest in the field and changed over. "I just became disinterested 
and went with my first instinct, kids."

Part-time mom

She is mother to 30. Sally Gillette has four grown children of her 
own, but she also acts as housemother for 30 members of Alpha Gamma 
Rho.

"The boys do the cleaning and most of the cooking. It may sound like 
a soft job, but it really isn't. I'm responsible for them if anything 
happens to them," Gillette said.

"A housemother really has to like and appreciate kids. They are a 
good group of guys," she said.

As housemother, Gillette plans menus, eats with the men and attends 
Founder's Day and Parents Day functions, Rho-mate meetings and even 
a few parties. She offers advice and at times tries to help the men 
improve their manners.

"I still need to show them how to set a table properly," she said. 
The men have a tendency to reverse the position of the knife and 
fork.

"Basically, I have to be like their moms at home," Gillette said.

"I also work with the Rho-mates. I help them plan activities and 
functions to help out the boys."

The fraternity hired Gillette when she answered a newspaper 
advertisement. "I don't really know what the boys based their 
decision on. A couple of the boys did comment on my den mother 
experience, though."

Gillette signed no contract with AGR, but works under a verbal 
agreement. There have been some difficulties because of this on 
both sides. However, no major ones have developed, she said.

Any problems that occur are handled through a fraternity member 
acting as a liaison. She can also make suggestions through the 
liaison who presents the problem or suggestion to the fraternity.

Gillette said being a housemother is not a full-time job.

Besides working as housemother, Gillette also makes miniatures, is 
a Fuller Brush saleswoman, a Sasco Aloe Vera Products dealer and 
an artist.

"The boys wanted someone who does other things because they are 
busy, too. The lady before me, I guess, expected the boys to keep 
her company. I don't expect the boys to entertain me," Gillette 
said.

She works in her two-room apartment on the first floor of the house. 
Between her projects, the men are still welcome to visit her.

"The boys don't really visit me much. Usually they come to borrow a 
Band-Aid, and I fix them up with my Sasco Products," Gillette said.

"They are not always quiet, but they are kids, and they're just having 
fun. I do occasionally lose my patience, but not for long." ECHO

Rock in a hard place

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN. . . PLEASE WELCOME. . . A ROCK 'N' ROLL BAND. . . 
FROM KIRKSVILLE, MO. . . LOWGUISE!"

"A rock 'n' roll band from where?"

The band LOWGUISE plays rock 'n' roll music, something they feel other bands in the area 
have been avoiding.

"We play the music we like to play. We are hoping that we will not be forced to do Top 40. 
We are really against that," senior Dick Dalager, drummer, said.

"I've known a few bands that have gone from rock 'n' roll to Top 40 and we don't want to do 
that," junior Pat Cook, guitarist, said. "We are not terrorists against Top 40; we just want 
to play the music we like best."

Dalager and Cook have been playing together for two years now and they recalled how they 
originally got together.

"I had a math class with Will (senior, Steve Wilson, Dalager's roommate) and he said that 
he had heard me and Phil (the original bass guitarist) playing in Mo. Hall in my room," 
Cook said. "I told him that we were looking for a drummer and he introduced me to Dick."

"The first place we played together was at a house I was renting with some other guys on 
South Osteopathy Street," Dalager said.

Then Cook moved into the house and the three played parties there. The house where they 
played was known as the "Haunted House" because of its size and structure. The parties 
became well known and the band's popularity began to grow. The other five students who 
are members of the band were added periodically.

"When Phil quit we were lucky to come across Bryan (sophomore Bryan Graves, bassist). He 
is really excellent," Dalager said.

"About two months later we talked Dan (Barr, senior) into doing vocals," Cook said.

"Dan used to sing along with the records at home and imitate the singers," Dalager said. 
"He would change his voice. He has a different voice for everything."

"I'd never really sung before. I just cranked up the stereo and tried to sing along," Barr said. 
"When they asked me to sing with them, I got this picture of myself standing in front of all these 
people, and it seemed a bit frightening." 

"Then we got Nate (junior Nathan Hines, rhythm guitarist) to start playing with us on a permanent 
basis," Cook said.

"Yeah, and that's when they started getting jobs," Hines added.

Senior Glenn Changar plays harmonica for the band on some songs and also runs the lights during 
shows. Freshman D.L. Cook is the band's sound engineer and has also built or rebuilt all of the 
band's guitars.

"This last September is when we really came together," Dalager said. "We got to play some 
fraternity parties and armory dances in addition to the bars we had been playing in."

Being in a band that wants to succeed requires time to be devoted to the music. Being a student 
and wanting to succeed requires devotion also. How do the two mix?

"Being in a band is kind of like having any other job while you try to go to school," Dalager 
said. "In a way it is not like a job because we play when we want. We just get psyched and 
have a good time."

"Other bands work while they play and have

DUELING GUITARS of juniors Pat Cook and Nate Hines catch senior Dan Barr, LOWGUISE lead vocalist, 
mimicking their actions. The local rock band practices two or three nights a week.

IMPROMPTU JAM sessions find the members of LOWGUISE, juniors Pat Cook and Nate Hines, seniors Dan 
Barr and Dick Dalager and sophomore Bryan Graves, ready to break into another song.

money all the time to invest back into the band until they make good. We are all broke 
because we have to study," Hines said.

LOWGUISE has been playing together and having a good time more often. They have found 
recent popularity in town and nearby, and they each have similar reasons for their 
success.

Graves attributed their popularity to the way they perform as a group. "We all get 
along real well, and people realize how good we work together."

"There is a definite demand for good rock 'n' roll in Kirksville, and we have been 
getting better," Dalager said. "The biggest reason for the success we have had is 
that we all get along real well."

D.L. Cook, who wrote the first of the band's original songs and was the most recent 
to be added to the group, agreed that the band's biggest success factor was the way 
they played together. "I could see that they were real close. They've got a great 
rapport."

The band that was playing small parties a year ago has evolved into a group that plays 
regularly in Kirksville and in other parts of northern Missouri and southern Iowa. They 
have been to Brookfield and Columbia and to Albia, Iowa, and can be found playing out 
somewhere almost every weekend. "Since we have been playing out, people sometimes notice 
me on the street or on campus and say something about the band," Pat Cook said.

The band has been playing with some regularity lately, and even though they have been 
getting jobs, they have not been able to establish financial stability through the band. 
They play rock 'n' roll music because that is the music they prefer. They play together 
because they get along so well. They play almost every weekend, but the money is not 
their sole purpose. "Getting paid for working is fine," Dalager said, "but we're getting 
paid to have fun." ECHO

ALTHOUGH THE AUDIENCE may find the rhythm conducive to fingersnapping, bass guitarist 
sophomore Bryan Graves concentrates on a finger-tangling chord during a LOWGUISE show.

RAPIDFIRE rhythm punctuates a LOWGUISE practice session. Even though senior Dick Dalager 
will graduate in May, he's at home behind his drums, so he plans to stick around with 
the band.

STRANGE BEAMS of light and a ghostly figure illuminate the hall of Laughlin Building. The 
figure is really senior Keith Konigsmark, but there are rumors of ghosts in the building.
 
(Page 109)

With the college spirits

The room is dark. A strange noise sounds from within. Flip the switch and the empty room 
lightens. But what about the noise? Could it have been a ghost?

People may or may not believe in ghosts. Sal Costa, temporary instructor of psychology, 
believes in ghosts, but prefers to call them spirits.

"Spirits are individuals who have not crossed to another plain of existence," Costa said. 
Poltergeists inhabit a place for a short span of time and are mischievous, but hauntings 
occur over long periods of time, he said.

A room in Dobson Hall may be the home of a poltergeist that sophomore Mike Sargent calls 
"Toby." Several years before Sargent lived in the room, a suspicious incident occurred.

One of the men living in the room at that time had gone out for the night. The other was 
lying in bed half asleep waiting for him to return. The man in bed heard the door open, 
and the sound of footsteps moving to the bunk. He opened his eyes to see a depression 
in the bed where someone was sitting, only no one was there, Sargent said.

The man on the bed felt an increasing weight on his chest. It was then he fled the room. 
Several of his friends stayed with him once he was coaxed back into the room, Sargent said.

"Things are always falling off the walls, and once a pyramid of bottles that had been up for 
a couple weeks collapsed for no reason," he said. "We just blame things on Toby."

Sargent said that when he lived in the room he would get complaints from students living 
directly above and below the room about tappings. If the room was quiet, the sounds could 
be heard, but no one in the room was making them, he said.

Centennial Hall also had a rumored sighting of a ghost. The event supposedly took place 
several years ago following Christmas break.

A girl that lived in Centennial was involved in a fatal car accident in southern Missouri 
on her way back to school from break. No one in the hall knew what had happened, and 
wondered why she hadn't returned from break.

A couple days after classes had resumed, the girl was seen walking down the hall. She 
turned and entered her room. A couple of her friends saw her and went to see why she 
was so late. They knocked, but there was no answer.

Soon after the sighting they learned of her death. They described the incident to others 
and found that the clothes they had supposedly seen her wearing were the ones she was 
wearing at the time of her death.

Off-campus residents also have their share of ghosts. Junior Scott Chovanec has lived at 
905 S. Osteopathy since the beginning of his sophomore year.

There had been a violent murder in the house some years before, and there was trouble removing 
blood from the walls. "It (the wall) eventually had to be paneled over because paint wouldn't 
cover the blood," Chovanec said.

Incidents with this ghost include missing objects and mysterious operation of appliances. The 
stereo turns on by itself, he said.

Chovanec is not quite sure if he believes in ghosts or not, but he is not frightened by them. 
"If I ever meet up with a ghost, he'll be sorry he met me," he said.

Probably the most widely known incidents having to do with ghosts on campus are those of 
the Laughlin Building ghost.

Since KNEU disc jockeys are in Laughlin Building alone late at night on a regular basis, 
they experience more of the strange happenings.

Junior Steve Heston, business manager at KNEU, had an encounter with the ghost one night 
last fall.

Heston said he had finished the late shift as DJ, locked the station and turned the lights
out. On his way down the stairs, he met a security guard on his rounds.

Heston said the guard asked him why he had not turned the lights off. "I knew right then 
that something had happened," he said.

Junior Karen Gordy, program director for KNEU, also doubles as a DJ. She believes there 
is a ghost that inhabits Laughlin. "The door to the attic in the studio used to open by 
itself once in awhile. Maybe it can't be proved, but I bet there could be a ghost," she said.

Some of the spooky things experienced by DJs at KNEU can be explained, Art Peppard, temporary 
part-time assistant instructor, said.

Safety and Security put one of its transmitters on the roof of Laughlin, and, over time, the 
people who frequented Laughlin forgot it was there.

People working late at night in the KNEU broadcasting booth would hear voices and get scared, 
Peppard said. Their fears were resolved when Safety and Security removed its transmitter.

No matter what beliefs exist or who has disproved situations that may involve spirits, there 
is always a margin of doubt. Gordy said, "I don't know if it's true. Who knows?"ECHO

Up in the air

Up, up, up it goes and where it lands, nobody knows. But if it is a baton, freshman Michelle 
McBride knows where it will land--in the palm of her hand.

The 17-year-old has been twirling since the age of three and has won more than 500 trophies 
in competition.

McBride has performed in several states including Indiana, Mississippi, Kansas, and Missouri. 
She has won five state championships and the National Two-baton Championship at the University 
of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana. McBride has also placed in the top ten in other events 
such as flag twirling, drum majorettes and general field competition.

"I now have 540 trophies with the baton, plus a few others from 4-H cattle competitions," she 
said.

Her fascination first began when her father came home from a cattle show with a toy baton. That 
fascination kept growing and soon she knew she wanted to take lessons and learn to twirl.

"It was my own decision," McBride said, "My parents were real supportive of me and didn't push 
me into it."

McBride performed her twirling routines using one and two batons at two men's basketball games. 
McBride said she is working on three batons, knife twirling and the hoop, a special baton, for 
her final appearance of the season.

"It's fun twirling at the games. It's a lot better than in high school because everyone in the 
crowd appreciates it more," she said.

McBride said she was worried at first because she didn't know how the audience would react. She 
said she had been told there was a twirler a few years ago and the crowd didn't like it.

"They've (the audience) been great," she said. "The first time I twirled up here I got a standing 
ovation. That was unreal; that they accepted it that well."

Performing in front of a crowd doesn't seem to bother her although performing in front of her friends 
is another story. "I get real nervous because I know I have to go and talk to them afterwards while 
with strangers I may never see them again."

McBride said her friends really support her and that helps her perform. "It makes me want to do a 
good job for them," she said.

McBride doesn't have a set practice routine but tries to get in at least 10 hours a week. She has 
to practice on her own and work around her studies. "Sometimes I practice in the mornings around 
6 o'clock."

Besides her own practices and performances McBride teaches twirling and has had some of her students 
reach the top five in state championships.

With a major in music education, McBride plans to become a high school band director when she 
graduates. Until McBride begins to direct with her baton, she will continue to twirl and most 
of the time when the baton goes up, it comes back down in her hands. ECHO Story by Liz Lukowski

ON HER TOES, freshman Michelle McBride entertains the crowd at halftime of a home basketball 
game. McBride plans to use her baton experience as a high school band director after graduation.

CONCENTRATION is a must for freshman Michelle McBride when she performs with two batons. McBride 
has performed for more than 13 years and has won more than 500 trophies in competition.

Pop stop

After a long walk out to Thousand Hills State Park during the CROP walk, juniors Martha Petersen 
and Lynn Reynolds stop for a drink during the lunch break. CROP (Church Rural Overseas Program) 
is designed to raise money to offer relief to the poor in third world countries. About 80 people 
began the 20 mile trek to the lake and back, but only about 65 finished.

A Tri-ing situation

You are about to enter a dimension of unorthodox brotherhood and neo-fraternal ideas.

Two men are walking along a dimly-lit Kirksville street, reciting a limerick just learned 
at a fraternity party, when through the impermeable fog they witness an unforgettable sight. 
Atop a seemingly tranquil white house located at 501 E. McPherson, they see a human-like 
figure perched on all fours making an incoherent shrilling sound. Little do the two

young men know that the creature is a gargoyle and they have entered . . . the Tri Woody zone.

Although this may sound like a fictional scene from the Twilight Zone, it is quite 
possible that the gargoyle is junior Wilson Lane, president of Tri Woody, imitating 
the mythological creature.

Lane is one of about thirty-five men who are the social organization, Tri Woody. Just 
exactly what is a Tri Woody (or Woody as they sometimes call themselves) is a question 
its members have difficulty answering.

"We were just sitting around one night (in fall 1980) drinking and making fun of the 
Greeks because it was during pledge season. We couldn't see the use in carrying around 
a bucket, a paddle, a brick or whatever. So we thought, let's just make up our own 
organization," senior Jeff Young said.

Thus, Tri Woody was born with six members: Lane, Young, juniors Kenny Smith, Don Easter, 
and Geoff Hutton and Bill Kelley, who has sinced transferred to Iowa State. All six men 
lived on the second floor north wing of Missouri Hall.

"As far as how the name Woody came about, it was Wilson's nickname and we called ourselves 
the Woodies," Young said.

Young said the "basic reason the Tri was included was to be kind of Greek (Tri Sigs). It was 
definitely intended to be just a kind of fun thing."

Junior Steve Heston said, "A way for us to poke good-natured fun at the Greek organizations 
was to make a play on one of their names. We disagree with the idea of having to pay money 
just to belong to an organization." 

Sophomore Brent Seaba said, "We don't like to pay money to people we never see, like a national 
due. Does anyone know national? I've never seen him in my life. Why should we pay him to get 
together and do what we do?" 

Although they do not consider themselves a fraternity, they do have some very unique common 
characteristics. One is their hand signal, which is formed by extending the fingers on the 
right hand and then connecting the ring finger and thumb to form a W. Woodies often greet 
each other with the signal. Sophomore Tom Voss said "It is also something we can do with 
our hands when we're not drinking beer." 

Another common phrase around the Woody house is mental vacation. "One of the things that one 
of our founding fathers, Geoff Hutton, is famous for is perfecting the mental vacation," Heston 
said. This is a method by which a Tri Woody can improve his academic performance by not attending 
classes for two or three days and sending his mind to Jamaica, he said.

"Or you can go all out (while on the mental vacation) and go up to the travel agency and decide 
where you want to go, get some brochures, pin them up on the wall and you're in heaven for three 
days," Seaba said.

Heston said a large portion of the membership of Tri Woody grew up in southeast Iowa, there are 
two members from Missouri and two from Illinois. "We are all bound together by our loyal love for 
Lute Olson and the Iowa Hawkeyes," Heston said. It is almost a requirement for members to be able 
to know the Iowa fight song, Young said. "We're working on it."

Young said the large number of members from Iowa is a result of the Missouri-Iowa rivalry. "When 
you come down to Missouri almost everybody is anti-Iowa, so we just naturally group together."

Heston said the group does not have rush or pledge classes. "What we do mainly is, toward

Tri-ing situation

the end of the semester the guys that have been to most of the parties say they're 
a Woody. It's no big deal really."

Sophomore Steve Mosinski said one of the qualifications of a Tri Woody is "being 
friendly. You don't have to be with your nose up in the air to everybody. You have 
got to get along." 

Heston said some people (not Woodies) have suggested they try to become a chartered 
organization. "If we got a charter it would be Greek. Then we would have to go by 
someone elses rules. We like to go by our own."

Young said Tri Woody is a sports-minded organization. This puts them at somewhat of 
an advantage while competing in Intramural basketball and baseball (the only two IM 
sports they enter). "All the Woodies are jocks basically, and not all Greeks are 
jocks."

Heston said many of the members first met while playing against each other in high 
school sports in southeast Iowa.

Despite their frequent parties and mental vacations, Young said the Woodies' grade 
point average is very good. "Last fall we sat down and figured out our grade point 
average and we were higher than the Greeks. We had a cumulative of 3.1."

The only officer in Tri Woody is Lane who serves as president. Since the name of the 
organization derived its name from Lane's nickname, he will always be the president, 
Heston said.

Lane said whether or not Tri Woody will continue to exist after the founding fathers 
graduate "depends on what some of the younger guys want to do. I would like to come 
down and see them after I graduate, but not necessarily as Tri Woodies, but as friends."

Our story now turns back to those two young men trying to determine what the creature is 
lurking above them on the white house. They have two options; they can run from the house 
toward safety or run to the house for safety.

The young men decide to enter the house to escape the creature, only to be met by several 
inebriated students sitting around a medieval suit of armor. Each student is pouring a half 
filled can of beer down the mouth opening of the armor. The two frightened young men ask 
in unison, "What is that strange creature on the roof?"

Immediately Mosinski turns around and says, "Didn't you ever see 'Johnny Quest'? It's a 
gargoyle."

One of the young men asks, "What is a gargoyle?"

Seaba then turns around and says, "A gargoyle is a Wilson Lane, on the quarters table or on 
the house, where ever it may happen. Occasionally he has been on top of his car, or on top 
of the chair in the living room."

Lane said the gargoyle imitation originated one night when he had a "little too much to drink. I
 have a rather large nose and someone said I looked like a gargoyle. I said, 'Do you want to see 
a real gargoyle?' " So he jumped up on something (he is not quite sure what it was), got on all 
fours, and "I gave them a side view." ECHO

Fancy dancer

IN FULL COSTUME freshman Doug Carlson strikes a pose to begin a dance. It takes about 
30 minutes to put on his costume and paint his face. Carlson has won the sectional 
competition for the past two years.

He dances to the beat of his father's drum. Freshman Doug Carlson, an Eagle Scout who 
has been in the Boy Scouts of America for 10 years, wears an Indian costume for his 
hobby, of Indian feather dancing.

There are three styles of Indian dance: old style, straight dance and Carlson's 
style--feather or "fancy" dance.

"My father helped me get started when I was in the Cub Scouts," Carlson said. "I enjoy 
it, thats why I stick with it."

He recently won first place for the second straight year in the North Central Region 
Sectional competition, the Order of the Arrow Sectional Conclave. The Order of the 
Arrow is an honor camper society of the Boy Scouts.

"At the competitions we dance in groups of the same kind, like feather dancers, but we 
are judged on an individual basis," Carlson said. Before every competition Carlson 
listens to tapes of Indian music to help him get motivated to dance.

"There are never any entry fees to dance at the powwows or the competitions. I dance year 
around and when it's cold, we dance inside," Carlson said. "To be a dancer in competitions 
you have to be under 21, I'm 20 now."

Of the three styles of dance, old style and straight dance require a degree of research and 
labor, but fancy dancers have more elaborate costumes.

"I make all my own costumes, but my mom helps with the sewing," Carlson said. "I spent $60 
on the materials in the bustle, but because of the time involved in making it, it is worth 
about $300." Included in his costume are leggings made of Angora goat hide.

"The costume I made cost about $1,000. It took me two weeks just to make the bustle."

No money is awarded for the competitions Carlson has won. "I have two trophies at home from 
winning first place," Carlson said.

Carlson likes to go to Indian powwows to watch other dancers, but because of the time it takes, 
his travels have not been too extensive.

"Over Labor Day, I went to a national hobbyist powwow in Indiana. Things like that and books, 
plus my own ideas, help me to come up with costume ideas," Carlson said.

"My dad drums and sings for me. He really likes it. He wasn't a Scout when he was my age but 
he was a scout master and is an Order of the Arrow adviser in our area now," Carlson said.

"I have no specific plans for the future, but I would like to stay as active as I can in Scouts 
and in feather dancing," Carlson said. ECHO Story by Pamela Crow

Matched set

Students with brothers or sisters are usually acquainted with 
having to share certain things with siblings: haircolor, 
parental attention, bathroom rights, television privileges 
and Oreos, to name a few. But some siblings, like seniors 
Pam and Lisa Premer and seniors Pat and Pam White also share 
a traditionally unique trait: the same face.

As identical twins, all four women find themselves in strange 
situations either accidentally or purposely. For instance, both 
sets have, at some time, pretended that they had a triplet.

"Pam started the rumor that we had a triplet in Centennial 
named Peggy who lived on first floor. We'd go down there and 
pose as Peggy every once in awhile and people really believed 
us," Pat White said.

"A lot of people think we're stuck up because a lot of her 
friends that I haven't met will come up to me say, 'Hi, Pam, 
how're you doing?" and I'll not know who they are or speak to 
them on the street; I get a lot of peculiar looks from them," 
Pat White said.

Even their close friends sometimes get them confused. "Our 
personalities are different; once people get to know us, 
it's not any problem," Pam White said, "but I think we do 
look pretty much alike and people do confuse us."

"People think it's an insult that they can't tell us apart. 
I guess they think that they should know," Lisa Premer said.

This problem can be particularly bothersome when it involves 
relationships with the opposite sex. "One guy we met at a bar 
asked Pam to dance. Later, when she left to get a beer, he 
asked me to dance, thinking I was Pam. When I told him, 'No, 
I'm her twin,' he didn't believe me," Lisa Premer said.

"Everyone knows that Trish has a boyfriend, so a lot of guys 
are hesitant to ask me out because they don't know which one 
I am," Pam White said.

Each of the women notes a great degree of similarity between 
herself and her twin. Both Pam and Pat White are education 
majors and like the same food, and the same type of personalities 
in people, the same hairstyles and the same styles of clothes. 
Although they do not dress alike, they have often met each 
other, each wearing matching clothes without planning to. 
That situation has also happened to Lisa, a sociology major 
with a minor in psychology and Pam, a psychology major with 
a minor in sociology.

There are fights once in awhile. "Two years ago we fought 
more than we ever had before," Pam Premer said.

"She started smoking, and I nagged her about it," Lisa said.

"We have one big fight every other month and we won't talk 
for a day," Pat said. "But in the middle of all our arguments, 
we'll die laughing. We used to freak our roommates out because 
we'd be cussing at each other and then all of a sudden, we'd 
just start laughing."

The twins are beginning to deal with separation on a small 
scale since coming to college, as well as their identities 
as individuals. "Last year was the first time we'd ever 
lived apart," Lisa said. "Pam was just always there for 19 
years, and then all of a sudden, she wasn't. Even though I 
was living with three other people, I felt really alone. I 
went over to Pam's a lot because I needed her."

They now live together again, while the Whites live in 
separate, but closely located apartments. "Since we're 
in college, we hardly ever see each other, except for 
classes. I get to rely on myself; I finally am standing 
on my own two feet, saying, 'I'm Parn,' not Pam and Pat, 
and I'm beginning to find out qualities about me that I 
never knew were there," Pam White said.

The most special advantage, however, for all four women 
is that of a built-in best friend. "She's a friend but 
more because she's your sister. She'll tell you exactly 
how she feels," Lisa said. "What ever you say, she'll 
understand and she'll love you no matter what."

"I think when you have a person you know will always love 
you and on whom you can always depend, it makes you a 
healthier person so you can offer more to other people," 
Pat said. "She really helps me grow because I know that 
my close friends won't want to tell me negative things. 
I think the most favorable thing about being a twin is 
that you genuinely feel loved."

"We're really fortunate to have each other," Pam White 
said. "Who could find a better friend than a twin sister?"ECHO

Just visiting

A beautiful fall day gives junior Sue Hardy and her mother, 
Dorothy Hardy, a chance to take a tour of the campus. For the 
first time in three years both of Hardy's parents were able to 
attend Parents Day. A football game, the general assembly in 
Baldwin Hall Auditorium, and a Sigma Sigma Sigma reception were 
also included in the day's activities.

Financial duty

Difficult economic times make financial aid more important 
to students. When times are hard more students apply for 
aid and more students look for alternative ways to pay for 
an education.

Beginning in the summer of 1983 men must complete another r
equirement before they can receive any financial aid from the 
federal government.

On Sept. 8, 1982, President Ronald Reagan signed a bill into 
law which withholds financial aid from men who fail to register 
for the draft.

Wayne Newman, director of financial aids, said the new law goes 
into effect July 1, 1983. The new law requires men over the age 
of 18 to prove they have registered for the draft before any 
financial aid will be granted. Men must prove this by presenting 
their registered acknowledgment letter to the Financial Aids 
Office.

The law affects both federal loan and grant programs including 
the Pell Grant, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants, 
National Direct Student Loans and Guaranteed Student Loans. It 
also affects the federal work/study program and other 
federally-financed student aid programs.

It is the student's responsibility to obtain and keep the 
registered ackowledgment from the Selective Service, Newman 
said. "Students who don't have their registered acknowledgment 
letter cannot receive aid; they must get a copy at Selective 
Service. We don't have copies of the letters."

Some students said they thought the enactment of the new law 
was a good idea. "I think it's a good idea because now the guys 
who haven't registered are forced to in order to receive their 
financial aid," freshman Greg Fleetwood said.

Freshman Jim Adams said, "They have a perfect right to shut off 
your aid. People are willing to accept fringe benefits but when 
the time comes, they aren't willing to protect those sources."

All students are required to complete a Statement of Educational 
Purpose/Registration Compliance when applying for financial aid 
from the federal government. Men will now also have to make their 
registered acknowledgment letters available to the Financial Aids 
Office. ECHO

ON THE DOTTED LINE, Kenneth Appold, Kirksville High School 
senior, signs his name to a draft registration form at the 
post office. Men must sign up within one month of their 
18th birthday.

Showrooms

"Don't you fight with your suitemates over the bathroom?"

"Is the refrigerator furnished with the room?" "Is a four-person 
room crowded?"

To answer questions from prospective students about the residence 
halls, model" rooms are part of a campus tour given by Student 
Ambassadors to visiting students. The Admissions Office contracts 
with students who volunteer their rooms on a semester basis. The 
contract provides a reimbursement of $100 per person for a double 
room and $75 per person for a multiple room. "Usually I go inspect 
the rooms and ask them to come in and meet us," Pam Weatherby, 
admissions communication coordinator, said.

A VIEW FROM INSIDE provides prospective students Joyce Olsen and 
Teresa Ripperger with the opportunity to see a room in Missouri 
Hall. Students volunteered their rooms for the VIP guests.

Tours can be scheduled through the Admissions Office from 
8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Residents of model rooms cope with 
early-morning tours in a variety of ways, but most said the 
tours did not cause major interruptions. Sophomore Denise 
Terranova said that both she and her roommate have classes 
at 8 or 8:30 so the tours don't conflict with their schedules.

Even with a later class schedule the interruption to the 
residents is not significant. Freshman Scott Sharkey said 
that sometimes his roommates will sleep through the tours.

An average of three to five tours visit the model rooms 
weekly. This number can vary with the number of students 
who make appointments with Admissions. "Sometimes we can 
go through a week and there is nothing, and sometimes there 
will be four in one day," Terranova said.

Living in a model room gives the residents an opportunity to 
meet the visiting students. "Their reactions are pretty 
positive," Terranova said. "I enjoy meeting the people and 
if they have any questions I can answer them."

Double-occupancy and multiple-occupancy rooms are set up to 
show the students the different options available in room 
size. Freshman Mary Nolan, who lives in a four person room 
in Centennial Hall, said that most of the tours that visit 
her room are surprised at how big the room is. "They really 
check it out. They look in the closets and in the bathroom. 
They realize it's going to be more than just where they 
sleep." she said.

"A lot of them would prefer a two-man room to a three-man 
room," freshman Kenneth Wilhelm said.

"I think it is our responsibility to give them a good 
impression," Nolan said.

The tours are also an added incentive for the residents to 
keep up with their housekeeping duties. "Early in the morning 
it's sometimes a mess," Sharkey said. "It is more of an 
incentive to keep it clean."

Residents of model rooms are expected to follow all University 
policies set for residence hall students, Weatherby said. No 
further restrictions are put on the residents, but reports on 
room conditions and impression the rooms make during the tours 
are made by Student Ambassadors.

The model rooms are important recruiting tools for the Admissions 
Office. Weatherby said that when admissions counselors ask the 
students what they want to see, a majority of them want to see 
a room.

To a prospective student, visiting the model rooms can be 
beneficial. "I looked at a room when I came up here, and I 
got an idea of where I wanted to live," Sharkey said.

"I think it helps them to know what to expect in terms of 
the rooms," Terranova said.

Exposure to residence hall living can help answer a lot of 
questions for an incoming freshman. The residents who volunteer 
their rooms as model rooms also are exposed to the types of 
concerns that students have. As the semester progresses, the 
residents become familiar with the routine of tours visiting 
their rooms four or five times a week. However, for the 
visitors the impression of the residence hall is an unfamiliar 
and lasting experience. "For each individual, that (the model 
room) is their impression of an NMSU student," Weatherby said. ECHO

Drawing attention 

Many students who go to college these days need some source of outside income. Students are 
forced to obtain loans, grants or get an outside job. 

For those who choose work, an easy job will usually be taken over a more strenuous one if there 
is a choice. 

Art modeling has been a paid position on campus for many years, and a lot of students think it 
is an easy job. Art models, however, do not agree. 

"A lot of people think it's (modeling) real simple because you don't have to do any physical work 
but it's a lot harder than they think because you can't move at all," sophomore Kendall Goff said. 

There is no academic credit given for modeling in art classes. Most students model because of the 
money. "I do it (model) because as an art student I need the extra money for supplies as it's an 
expensive major," Goff said. "I've spent $150 for supplies and that's cutting it short. Then there 
is the cost of books." 

Another reason students model is for the experience involved. "I like to be in the classes because 
it's linked to my major and it's helpful to see other students work," Goff said. "You get more of 
an overall understanding of what will be expected of you in more advanced classes from being a model." 

There are not any requirements or qualifications to be an art model. Anyone can apply for the job. 
One quality, however, that should be inherent in all models is patience. Long periods of time are 
spent in a single pose. 

The hardest part about modeling is during a long pose there can be no movement. "If you move people 
tend to get angry because you can't get back into the original position," Goff said. 

"It's made me realize how frustrating modeling is and I have more patience with other models now," 
freshman Beth Marshall said. 

The length of a pose depends on the class the student is modeling for. In some classes the model 
only has to pose for 10 minutes at a time. In other classes the model might have to remain in the 
same position for three hours with a break every hour or hour and a half. 

"It's hard not to move because your body falls asleep," freshman Cory Reynolds said. 

Several classes use models for painting and drawing such as basic drawing classes, water-color 
and oil painting classes. 

Most of the models find out about the job through taking art classes or by knowing other models. 
"I found out about it by talking to models and I asked the instructor," Reynolds said. 

One of the things the models find interesting is the finished drawing the students come up with. 

"I've always been fascinated to see how others view an object or model. Everyone has their own way 
of seeing things," Marshall said. "As an artist myself, I like to see how other artists see me and 
put it on paper." 

Reynolds said, "I get along really well with the students and it's fun to get up during breaks and 
see what the students have done." 

"It's fun to see a good drawing of myself," Goff said. "Another good aspect of modeling is that you 
get to make a lot of new friends because you meet a lot of people from the classes." ECHO

Raising a racquet

Even though the shine has worn off the game of raquetball, the rage of only two years ago, 
students still flock to the courts during the winter months to work out. In fact, students 
want to play so badly that they begin to form a line at the door of the equipment room in 
Pershing Arena to reserve a court for that day as early as 6:30.

Each semester, beginning and intermediate" raquetball classes fill quickly. Every morning, 
up to 40 people wait in line to reserve a court.

Monday through Friday students can reserve a court at the equipment room in the Pershing 
Arena. Reservations open at 7:30 a.m. The courts are usually reserved for the entire day 
at that time. Arlie Hindman, equipment manager, said that there is a big demand for raquetball 
courts when the weather is bad, but when the weather improves the demand decreases.

"With the warmer weather, the lines aren't so bad," freshman Drew Lovell said.

"There are usually 25 people waiting in line to reserve a court when I come to unlock the 
equipment room, but I've seen as many as 40 waiting in line," Hindman said.

"I play two or three times a week, and I have to get in line before seven o'clock," senior 
Sue Streb, said. "It's worth going that early because I like to play."

Hindman said there have been a few problems with students reserving courts. "Some students 
have tried signing up for more than one time per day which is not allowed," he said. "Now, 
there is always someone watching to see that this doesn't happen."

"We have even had students erase names of those who had already reserved a court and then 
replace it with their own names," Hindman said. "But now students have to reserve a court 
in ink."

The University first offered beginning and intermediate raquetball in the spring of 1980.

"Raquetball classes are always filled up quick each semester we have offered them," Ralph 
Pink, professor of physical education said. "We have great facilities and good instructors.

"There is definitely a relationship between participation and learning the sport," Pink 
said. "Students want to be able to play the best they can."

"I was really interested in it. I had just started and it was a good workout," senior 
Cindy Henderson said.

"I'm in beginning raquetball," senior Gary Pagliai, said. "I had never played before, 
but now I like it a lot." Pagliai said he had tried enrolling for the class for two years, 
but it was always full.

Many students trade off standing in line with their opponents, and there are different methods 
of choosing who gets the job. Lovell practices a method which is usually a disadvantage to him. 
"The loser has to stand in line to get the court, and it's usually me," he said. ECHO

The slithering exhibitionist

It's just a small town to pass through en route to the Iowa line on Highway 63. Some people 
drive by Greentop without batting some notice, chuckle and move on.

Others do not pass through so quickly. Compelled by curious disbelief or high hopes, they stop 
at the house displaying the sign: "Snakes of the World Exhibit--new enlarged collection."

"I've collected snakes since I was 10," Dale Ertel said as he walked toward a small, concrete 
shed. Who would guess this kind-looking man would be interested in slithery serpents? A boyish 
smile accompanies the young man throughout the tour.

Wire cages along the outer wall of the structure contain pheasants, four from China and two silver 
birds from Italy.

Up the steps outside the locked door, a ferret pokes his nose through the mesh. New Zealand mountain 
sheep with curled horns stand proud and respectful behind the snakehouse.

A scent of uneasiness hits upon entering the one-room building, and a nervous, hissing, rattling 
sound builds. Aquariums line three was and draw attention to the source of the sound. Ertel begins 
his informal tour with the large South American rattlesnake coiled and alert in his cubical.

Three smaller snakes, timber rattlers, lay quietly in the next cage while a small rat sits in the 
corner, unaware of what lies ahead of him. Ertel points out that this type of snake can be found 
at Thousand Hills State Park, and they are harmful.

"You may lose the area you're bit in--it rots the skin," Ertel said.

Copperheads, cottonmouth water mocassins, bull snakes and rat snakes are only a part of the Ertel 
menagerie. Like a stamp collector, he generally trades for his snakes and other live collectables 
although he will occasionally go outof-state snake hunting with a friend. Ertel grins modestly as 
he reaches in the tarantula's aquarium to make the hairy spider move.

A small alligator he traded for sits in its large tub of water and rocks. Across the room is a 
similar beast, a sluggish Gila monster, which is the holder of abundant venom.

Ertel rarely advertises his exhibit, except for the hat he wears, yet estimates 600 people see 
his collection each summer. Although he charges a small admission, Ertel only hopes to break 
even and share his hobby with others. Buying rats and feed and keeping the shed heated in the 
winter adds up in expenses.

His cobra springs up in its cage, spreading its head and bumping it on the glass.

"These are very timid snakes," Ertel said. "They feel safe when they have something to crawl into."

The green tree viper is common in Vietnam. U.S. soldiers there would go out of their way to avoid 
this snake.

"The men call it a two-step or step-and-a-halfer snake," Ertel said. That's about as far as you 
will get if one bites you.

Even when coiled, the 13-foot python fills his large cage. This slither-happy fellow is finicky. 
His only meal is white rabbits.

Ertel wants to get venomous snakes that

AN EIGHT-FOOT python is quite a handful for junior Pat Mullins and his uncle, Dale Ertel. Ertel 
was showing off his slithering collection at an open program in Centennial Hall.

The slithering; exhibitionist

there is no serum for. he said racecar drivers get their thrills driving fast, and this is how 
he gets his. He does stress being careful, though.

"You just watch every move you make with them. You've got to have a lot of respect for them," 
he said.

Ertel had to obtain licenses for his exhibit. A National Wildlife symbol is displayed on the 
door of the shed. Ertel often presents shows at club meetings and schools. He had also done 
some snake collecting for the University.

Ertel, accompanied by three snakes, presented a question-and-answer program in Centennial Hall 
this spring. About 50 people attended the program (not counting those who
watched from afar).

Ertel's nephews, freshman Shawn Mullins and junior Pat Mullins, helped in handling Ertel's 
python. Pat often goes on rattlesnake hunts with his uncle.

"If you ever want to forget about your problems, go rattlesnake hunting. Then you just wonder 
where your feet are," he said.

Although many of the students attending the program were not big fans of snakes, they did enjoy 
the presentation.

"I thought it was very informative. He really, knew his snakes," sophomore Denise Terranova said.

Senior Amy Patterson said she went to the program to learn more about the different types of 
snakes. "I'm scared of them because of the fact that you can't tell which ones are poisonous 
from a distance," she said.

Does exposure to an informative talk on snakes take away the fear? "I think I'd still run," 
sophomore Cheri Stroppel said. "I'm scared of them, but because I'm scared of them, I'm 
interested in them." ECHO Story by Sally Troutman

WITH GLASS AND WIRE between her and several snakes, junior Renee Slaughter feels safe enough 
to take a close look. After Dale Ertel's program on snakes, guests were invited to inspect 
the reptiles.

A magic touch

When junior Darryl Nitsch asked for a TV magic kit for 
Christmas, he did not realize what the future would hold. 
In the eighth grade, he launched a hobby that has remained 
a part of his life.

"I remember when I got the magic kit for Christmas. I shanghaied 
all the poor, little neighborhood kids to come see me perform," 
Nitsch said.

He did not stop with the neighborhood kids, but added a partner 
to his act not long after he began. "My cousin and I were both 
interested in magic, so we formed a magic team. We were the Great 
Cousinies. We had good times with it," Nitsch said.

After performing in high school talent shows, library programs 
for children and birthday parties, Nitsch came to the University 
where he tried to get in as much performing as he could.

"I perform at the Greenhouse Theatre fairly regular. I've performed 
for the Shriners here in Kirksville, and I try to enter as many 
competitions as I can," Nitsch said.

Although he performs frequently, Nitsch said he is not able to 
practice as often as he would like. Not only is Nitsch a full-time 
student but also a resident assistant in Dobson Hall. "I practice 
very little because I just don't have the time. But when I'm getting 
ready for a show, I practice once a day for at least two weeks before 
the show."

In his show, Nitsch's favorite tricks are those that make a fool 
of him, but only for a while. "I do this one trick with rabbits 
that seems really hokey, but after I ask the audience why they 
are not responding, I put a twist in the trick that really gets 
the crowd going," Nitsch said.

Most of his tricks consist of medium-size stage illusions. "I do 
a lot of rope tricks. My biggest trick was when I made myself 
appear on stage at my high school's talent show," Nitsch said.

Stressing humor, Nitsch said he thinks he gets a lot out of the 
performances. "I base a lot of my show around comedy. I feel good 
when I come back from a performance and I see everybody smiling. 
That's basically why I perform."

Although he is used to performing now, he still gets nervous. 
"I probably get visibly nervous when I know I am screwing up. 
My dad would tell me when he'd see me doing things wrong; he 
knows the act pretty well," Nitsch said.

Nitsch gives a lot of credit to his family for their support. 
"They are my best critics. They don't hold any punches back, 
and they give me constructive criticism I need. You need the 
support."

He may have looked to his family for support, but when it came 
to looking for an idol in the magic field, illusionist Doug 
Henning filled the bill. "I think he's done a lot for magic. 
He put magic back into the art form. He's really a bizarre-
looking guy, but everything he does has a meaning," Nitsch said.

Nitsch has no definite plans for his act, but he said if he 
strives for a goal he can reach it. "At the end of my show I 
have this saying, it's 'have, fulfill and live your dreams.' 
I don't know if I want to go professional, but if that's a 
dream, I'm sure I could attain it. Right now I'm just keeping 
it as a serious hobby." ECHO Story by Heather Bruce

IN THE SPOTLIGHT at the Gong Show, junior Darryl Nitsch 
performs a trick using on old Index. Nitsch began learning 
magic tricks in the eighth grade and performs whenever he 
can.

A big wheel

Children usually begin riding bicycles with three wheels, 
then progress to two. Freshman Scott Meredith has taken yet 
another step by riding on the single wheel of a unicycle.

Meredith's parents bought him a unicycle for Christmas when 
he was in the fourth grade. Meredith said he did not ask for 
one, but his parents wanted him to learn the unique hobby.

Meredith taught himself to ride the one-wheeled mode of 
transportation and he had the technique down passably 
within four or five days. Meredith said he has not yet 
mastered the unicycle in the nine years he has ridden one.

"My definition of mastered would be doing anything possible 
on it (the unicycle)," Meredith said.

But Meredith has learned to do a few tricks. He can ride 
backward, with one foot, with his chest on the seat and feet 
on the pedals and bounce on the wheel.

Ever since he learned to ride a unicycle, Meredith has preferred 
it over a bicycle. "I can keep it in my room. It is cheaper and 
more fun," Meredith said.

Meredith said that riding a unicycle required no special skills, 
only a little coordination.

"People ask me to ride a lot. Really, it's not that tough," 
Meredith said. "I usually ask them if they have ever ridden 
before. If not, I let them ride in the grass. You can get hurt, 
you know."

Meredith knows just how dangerous riding a unicycle can be. He 
used to have a six-foot unicycle which is more hazardous than 
the normal-sized unicycle. Meredith said he once tried to ride 
the tall cycle up a curb but lost his balance and fell through 
the windshield of a parked car.

Meredith rides his unicycle to class and considers it an 
effective mode of transportation on campus.

"If it's a larger campus, it's not as effective as a bicycle 
because you can't go as fast," Meredith said.

There may be speed limitations on a unicycle, but not distance 
limitations. Meredith has ridden on one wheel as far as 23 miles 
at one time.

The only times he does not ride the cycle is when it is either 
very cold or icy. But he does not ride to gain attention. "It's 
something I like to do," Meredith said.

Meredith rides a Schwinn unicycle because he thinks it is a 
quality cycle. Meredith also said that purchasing a unicycle 
is not all that difficult. He said that most Schwinn and 
Columbia dealers carry one or two in stock.

So anyone who thinks one wheel may be better than two will 
have little trouble finding the means to obtain a unicycle 
and join Meredith in one unique hobby. ECHO

NO HANDS and on only one wheel, freshman Scott Meredith tours 
campus on his favorite mode of transportation. Meredith began 
riding a unicycle nine years ago because he preferred it to a 
bicycle.

Peaceful warrior

The Bruce Lee image of kung fu works well on the silver screen, 
but that same image is precisely what kung fu students like 
junior Ron Braver would like to live down.

For more than a year, Braver has taken a kung fu class at 
the University, instructed by Jim Bregenzer, temporary 
instructor of physical education, and the knowledge he has 
gained has been through serious concentration on the art.

Kung fu is not an ordinary hobby, but Braver was interested 
in learning what it was all about. So, every Tuesday and 
Thursday night, from 6 to 9 p.m., he attends class, hoping 
to move up the kung fu hierarchy.

ON HIS GUARD, junior Ron Braver fights off two "attackers" 
using kung fu. Braver practices against two opponents in 
preparation for the test for a higher sash.

"It (kung fu) just seemed suited for me," Braver said. "My 
body had deteriorated from weightlifting and you can always 
improve in kung fu."

Braver stressed the health aspects of kung fu. He said the 
relaxation moves performed before any contact practice lower 
blood pressure and massage internal organs. He also said kung 
fu helps him think more clearly and has improved his schoolwork.

"Kung fu helps in pressure situations. I know that if I had a 
lot of pressure, I could handle it," Braver said.

The internalization of kung fu involves far more than the actual 
fighting. Its primary function is the achievement of an inner 
sense of peace and the ability to make the mind move the body, 
not vice versa.

The kung fu artist learns to use his head and reason before 
resorting to violence.

"You've got to really get to know yourself," Bregenzer said. 
"Were not in this just for fighting. We're in this not to 
fight, really.

"We try to be passive," Braver said. "We'd rather walk away 
from a fight than fight."

Braver said when he first became involved with the martial 
art, many of his friends made fun of him. He said that at 
first, their joking bothered him. But in time, Braver learned 
to not let them bother him.

Braver works out in the dance studio in Pershing Building every 
day.

"If you really want to get good, at any style, you have to 
practice," Braver said. He hopes to someday achieve a grand 
master standing in the art of kung fu.

In kung fu, Braver has earned a black sash. To do this, he 
had to learn the eagle form of kung fu, meditate for six 
minutes, break one board with his palm and one board with 
a kick and spar one opponent, among other things.

Braver is currently working to earn a black sash with gold 
fringe. A few of the requirements for this sash is sparring 
two people simultaneously and breaking three thicknesses of 
boards with his palm as well as three by a kick.

By the time one reaches a grand master standing, a red sash 
with red fringe, the kung fu artist has successfully sparred 
20 people, simultaneously. At that point, the art is effortless 
and entirely internalized.

Most importantly, Braver strives to dispel the Bruce Lee image 
of kung fu. His quiet manner tells he is not violent but rather, 
thoughtful and prepared to reason. But when that fails, he is 
prepared to fight. ECHO Story by Michelle Yost

THE SMOOTH MOVEMENTS of the martial art, kung fu, are practiced 
by Doug Ward, junior Ron Braver and sophomore Mark Thompson 
during night classes. The class meets for three hours twice a 
week.

RELAXATION MOVEMENTS lower blood pressure and massage internal 
organs and junior Ron Braver begins every practice with a series 
of movements. The moves require concentration.

Collective view

At the Student Activities Board exhibit during the Activities 
Fair, sophomore Deann Johnson thumbs through a scrapbook 
containing newspaper clippings of past SAB-sponsored events.

The Activities Fair is sponsored each fall by Cardinal Key. 
The purpose of the fair is to give University students the 
opportunity to view exhibits of a major sampling of 
organizations and activities offered on campus.

The theme for the Activities Fair was "Sock Hop." A 1950s 
dance contest was held and students wore costumes to depict 
the period.

Senior Karol Hales is investigating her career choice from 
a different perspective; she is a member of NCATE.

NCATE, the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher 
Education, is the only national organization certified to 
accredit teacher education.

NCATE sends teams of approximately 14 members to do on-site 
visits, that look into every realm of the institution. Teams 
consist of public and private school teachers, professors and 
administrators, state department officials, teacher association 
members and students like Hales.

Hales became a member of NCATE through a connection with National 
Education Association at the student level, because she was a 
member of SNEA here.

"NEA is a big proponent of NCATE, and NEA received applications 
from NCATE and I

filled one out. I had to have two faculty sponsors write 
recommendations for me, and I had to write a paper that 
told about my professional goals, what I could contribute 
and why I wanted to be in NCATE," Hales said.

Hales' application went to the state NEA and then directly 
to the Washington NCATE office. Hales then became the first 
student from the University to become an NCATE member.

"We invesitgate everything. We start with the president or 
dean of the institution and go right down through the faculty 
and on through the students. We want to know about teachers, 
textbooks, students' thoughts about the classes, admissions, 
counseling channels; you name it, we want to know about it."

"It really is interesting to work with the committees. I have 
been to Central Michigan State University and Central Ohio 
State University for visits. Before we go, the institution 
prepares pages upon pages that refer to our guidelines to 
show us how they meet those guidelines, and then we go and 
see if what they say is true. We are not out to cut anybody's 
throat, but through these means of evaluation, we can help 
them improve in areas where they need improvement," Hales 
said.

"We prepare reports, and send them to the main office in 
Washington and that is where the evaluation actually takes 
place, and decisions about whether or not that institution 
is accredited is made there. So it is really important that 
our reports are complete, which is why we just question, 
question, question."

"It is fun to compare what one school system does to what 
another system does. Talking to people gives you an open 
scope of what the world is. You can't learn what I have 
learned from books. The world in which you learn is different 
from the world you work in."

In the fall of 1981, the University was visited by NCATE 
and met each and every standard that NCATE checks, and 
that is a rarity. "It makes you appreciate what we have 
here, because it is good. I have seen some other schools, 
and I think that what we have here is good." ECHO

Crisis connection

Seven days a week they sit in a small office until 2 a.m. 
waiting for calls from people with problems.

These volunteers, a mixture of students and area residents, 
work for the Crisis Line. Crisis Line, a volunteer service, 
has a phone line specifically for helping people with 
depression, loneliness or in an emergency.

Each night at least two people in the office receive calls, a 
primary person and a backup person. The primary person answers 
the call while the backup person listens and helps give 
suggestions. The backup person is necessary. "If it were an 
emergency situation these people would get the ambulance or 
get a phone trace," Susan Presley, scheduling counselor, said.

Every night there is also at least one female and one male 
volunteer because of the different needs of the callers. "If 
a guy calls up and is having problems with his girlfriend he 
isn't going to want to talk to a girl," Doug Davison, Kirksville 
resident said. Of the approximately 50 volunteers who man the 
phones, on an average of once or twice a week, each has a 
different reason for volunteering.

"I know I have problems and a lot of times you need a person you 
don't know, that you don't have to look straight in the face to 
talk to. You know you'll never have to see them," Presley said." 
But personally I volunteered because I care about other people."

"I had a lot of personal problems in my past, about three years 
ago--family and out of family problems. When you have problems in 
that, you really do need someone you can talk to. So I work at 
the Crisis Line so that maybe if somebody has a problem, maybe 
I can give a possible solution," junior Tim Bauman said.

The real reason for a crisis line in Kirksville is to help people. 
The volunteers believe that if just one life a year is saved then 
all their hours of time spent are worth while. Crisis Line receives 
on the average three calls a week, which leaves volunteers with a 
lot of spare time in their shifts. Working the late hours is no 
problem for Bauman, "I'm a night person anyway. I try to work on 
the days I don't have the earliest classes," he said.

Volunteers work at night because during the day the regular 
clinics for counseling are open. "We are here because people 
have problems after 9 p.m. and before five in the morning," 
Presley said.

"When I hang up the phone I feel inside that I've helped someone 
because they called and they had a problem and I answered it for 
them. So I helped them come to a solution to their' problem," 
Bauman said.

Kirksville needs Crisis Line because of the number of emergency 
calls received, Presley said.

Crisis Line also receives prank calls, but the volunteers keep 
in mind that these calls may be a cry for help by someone who 
has lost his nerve or is testing the line. Some of the calls 
Crisis Line deals with are not matters of life and death. They 
have received calls about how to cure a hangover. Even for that 
small crisis they were able to provide a solution. ECHO 

Story by Stephen Anderson

CRISIS LINE volunteer, junior Lisa Howe, logs a crisis call on 
a form. Crisis Line volunteers are on duty until 2 a.m. but get 
only an average of three calls a week.

ON THE PHONE, Crisis Line worker Jennie Ritter talks to a caller. 
The Crisis Line serves the Kirksville community by aiding callers 
with a variety of problems.

With a glance at her notes senior Theresa Walker prepares to 
make a sales pitch to a University alumnus while calling for 
Alpha Sigma Tau during Tel-Alumni. AST called against Alpha 
Gamma Rho and won the evening's contest by collecting more 
pledges for the project. Tel-Alumni is attempting to raise 
$2 million by 1990 to finance scholarships and academic 
programs. During the four-week calling period, student v
olunteers raised $77,900 in pledges and competed for 
individual and organization honors. Delta Chi raised 
the most money for the project with $4,933, but only 
$25 separated them from second place Delta Sigma Pi.

A song with supper

NOSE TO NOSE, senior Robbie Gleason and sophomore Fran Ramelow 
sing "The Little Things We Do Together" from Stephen Sondheim's 
musical, "Company."

It started as an idea for the traditional senior recital-type 
performance and blossomed into an extremely successful dinner 
theatre. With the cooperation of the Students Activities Board, 
Al Srnka, assistant professor of speech, and other talented 
people, senior Robbie Gleason, sophomore Fran Ramelow and senior 
Teresa Wood performed "Side by Side by Sondheim" for a full house 
in the Georgian Room.

"It is sort of a tradition for seniors who have worked in the 
theatre department to do a recital or work as their last 
performance. I heard 'Side by Side' done and I thought it 
was great," Gleason said.

"Side by Side" is a collection of Stephen Sondheim's lyrics and 
music that lends itself well to dinner theatre productions. The 
three-person show incorporates songs written by Sondheim, alone 
or in collaboration with other composers, for musicals such as 
"West Side Story," "Company," "A Funny Thing Happened On the Way 
to the Forum" and "Gypsy." 

"Technically, 'Side by Side' is in a class of its own. It's 
identified as musical entertainment," Gleason said. The show 
was developed by three unemployed actors who wanted to offer 
audiences in London a chance to appreciate Sondheim's work 
and create a source of income for themselves.

"I agree with the critics, that Sondheim is one of the finest, 
if not the finest composer-lyricist today. He is just a brilliant 
man. And all of his songs say something; they really have a 
message," director Srnka said. "I don't think he is very well 
known to the public because he has not really had a top forty 
hit. He did however, write the lyrics and the music for 'Send 
in the Clowns,' which comes from 'A Little Night Music.' That 
is fairly well known."

Wood and Gleason, already well known for their musical and 
theatrical performances in University productions, teamed 
up with newcomer Ramelow for the production. Ramelow had 
worked in conjunction with Summerplay, and then in the 
Showcase productions earlier in the year.

Srnka and Gleason saw Ramelow when she auditioned for 
"The Tempest" in the fall and decided she had the type 
of voice they wanted for the third part in "Side by Side."

"I guess one of the biggest thrills about it for me was 
that I was extremely flattered just to be asked to do 
'Side by Side.' But just as exciting is that I was able 
to play a different type role than I usually play, so it 
was a good experience," Ramelow said.

"'Side by Side' was neat because it is a conglomeration of 
all Sondheim's musicals, so while you are performing, you 
must think about what is happening in the play, action-

wise," Wood said. "I have worked with Robbie before and was glad 
to have the chance to work with him again, and also to have the 
chance to work with Fran for the first time. It was fun, and 
great experience."

The three vocalists began working a little in November, just 
sitting down with a songbook with Gleason at the piano, working 
out the numbers. Then they came back early from Christmas break 
and practiced between four and six hours a day.

"I really depended on Robbie a great deal musically, because he 
is a fine musician, pianist and accompanist," Srnka said.

Although considered a three-person show the performance also 
required the talents of a narrator, accompanists, and backstage 
personnel. Since the music for 'Side by Side' was written for 
duet piano, sophomores Natalie Williams and Scott Wheatley were 
enlisted to accompany the production, and Srnka served as narrator 
as well as director.

Behind the set constructed by Whiting with student assistance, 
junior Lisa Nicholson kept the production moving in her role 
as stage-production manager. "Back in October Robbie asked me 
if I would help out with the show, and I ended up spending as 
many hours in rehearsal as they did," Nicholson said. Nicholson 
kept record of blocking, prepared the stage and assisted in the 
production aspect of the show.

SAB arranged the publicity and helped set the date. Srnka said 
that it was done at a good time, because "there was a lull in 
activities after Christmas; not too many things were going on." 
A sell-out crowd two days before the performance was the 
conclusive evidence.

"I have nothing but good things to say about SAB. They paid for 
the royalties and the set, managed publicity, sold tickets; 
basically it was a wonderful production because they made it 
hassle-free for us," Srnka said. "SAB is supposed to provide 
student entertainment, and this time they reached not only the 
students, but the community as well, through 'Side by Side.'

"With the great response to this production, I would do it again; 
the audience was absolutely terrific," he said.

Both Gleason and Ramelow said they would like to work in live 
theatre sometime in the future, and this was a step in the right 
direction.

"It was an excellent way to culminate my college career. Personally 
this show meant a lot to me, so I would have sacrificed a lot for it. 
We (the three performers) worked well together, and we were backed 
up by some marvelous people," Gleason said. ECHO

country while his smooth accent belies his new-found American 
spirit.

Her dark ponytail and bangs reveal her casual lifestyle and 
her smiling eyes mirror her excitement at being in America.

Senior Patrice Guenvere and graduate student Christine Bassot, 
both from western France, are here to enhance their education 
while tutoring students in French. They tutor all levels of 
French and Bassot also teaches a French composition and 
conversation class.

Twenty-two-year-old Bassot came to the University through the 
Institute of International Education at the end of August. 
"I wanted to go an English-speaking country. I preferred 
America so I asked for it," she said. "My application had 
to go to Paris where a selection was made, then to New York 
for another selection. At random they picked Kirksville. I 
had never heard of it before I came here."

Bassot was here about two weeks before Guenvere arrived. 
"Fortunately Patrice is here to speak French with and be 
quick. I have to think much more slowly in English," Bassot 
said. "I felt so alone and isolated at first."

Guenvere's path to Kirksville was paved differently. "I was 
dying to come here (America) but there were no positions 
available in the French exchange program through the 
government," he said. "I bought a book that listed about 
50 universities and I wrote to them. It took a lot of time 
and work. I guess Kirksville needed someone."

Bassot was born in Epinal, a town in France near Germany. 
Her father is a director of foreign service so her family 
has traveled a lot, which is not common in France.

She has studied a little German but finds it a difficult 
language. She can also speak and understand Italian. Bassot 
studied English for seven years in high school and three 
years at a university in Nates.

Guenvere's hometown, Breton, is in the northwest of France 
and is about the same size as Kirksville. Breton was 
originally inhabited by the Celts and they have their 
own language, Breton, which is also spoken in Ireland 
and Wales. The town of Breton is very lively with many 
commercial activities--stores, nightclubs--lots of 
entertainment.

"My first impression when I came here was that Kirksville 
is a very small town and I thought I would be very bored," 
Guenvere said, "but I made many American and international 
friends."

One of those friends, senior Rick Millikan, also receives

class. Millikan and Guenvere met at the pool and a friendship 
developed. Now whenever they are together they speak French. 
"Patrice is easy to talk to and very patient," Millikan said.

Guenvere said there aren't any problems with tutoring French 
to English students. Bassot said that it is difficult because 
she has studied the structure and syntax of English, but not 
French. "French, for me, is intuitive, I know it is right, but 
I don't know why," she

Both said they encountered problems with the food. The problems 
are not necessarily as a result of the cafeteria food, but rather 
they miss home cooking and French cuisine.

Guenvere pointed out that he likes the American spirit: "freedom, 
easy-goingness and straightforwardness--carefree."

Both will remain in the country until at least next fall. Guenvere 
hopes to settle on the east coast where his "folks," a community of 
immigrants from Breton, are. He hopes to finish his master's thesis 
on free enterprise and government while he is here.

Bassot will go back to France to pass the degree equivalent to the
 master's degree. She may come back to America or stay in France. 
"Yes," she said, "my plans are up in the air." ECHO

Pie faces

Their goal: To raise $2,000. Their method: Throwing pies. It was 
the night before spring break began and, for members of the Baptist
 Student Union, it was time for the annual pie throwing contest.

"We do this every year," junior Sonja Taylor, vice president of 
the Union, said. "This is my third year of it and I love it."

As part of its program, the Union each year raises money for its 
mission programs. "We set a goal of raising $2,000 for missions 
this year and the pie throw is always a fun way to raise the 
money," she said. 

The executive council of the Union served as the targets. "We 
auctioned off the pies to the group. Each member of the council 
had to get up there and get hit," senior Dave Gregory, president 
of the Union, said. 

Taylor said this was just part of the Union's yearly activities 
to raise money for missions. "We know we can't raise all the 
money in one night so we spread it around. One thing's for sure, 
this is always one of the funnest, if not the funnest, activities 
we have." ECHO

Food for thought

A trend toward studying at local restaurants has increased 
late night business and has brought on a few problems. In 
Kirksville there are three attractions for the late night 
studiers, the last minute crammers, or the late night 
munchers. They are Hardee's, now open 24 hours on weekends, 
Country Kitchen and Northtown Cafe, both open 24 hours a 
day.

"We needed a place where a group of us, because of our scheduling, 
could not meet earlier in the day to study," senior Alan Isom said. 
"The library closes at midnight or so, and it was impossible to 
discuss topics there. So why not discuss it over a cup of coffee?"
"This place has a foolish notion of closing the library early," 
graduate student John Baumeier said.

Often there are too many distractions, such as television for 
students who return home to study after the library closes, 
Baumeier said.

"It's difficult to study in your own place," he said. Others 
suggested they study in restaurants to get out of the room, 
to get a change of atmosphere or to get rid of a feeling of 
claustrophobia experienced in the residence halls.

"Dorms--you can't study there. It's either too noisy or you 
know too many people. You don't get anything accomplished," 
sophomore Kelley Burns said. Other reasons for studying at 
restaurants were they offer cheap coffee or just satisfy the 
plain old munchies.

Whatever the reason, there has been an increase in students 
studying for long periods of time at the establishments. This 
has caused some inconvenience for the managers, but they enjoy 
the business.

One of the major problems with students frequenting these 
restaurants to study is that a majority come to study instead 
of buying food.

Troy Snieder, assistant manager of Country Kitchen, said, 
"We are in business to make money. We don't mind if the 
student comes into study over a hamburger, pancakes, roll or 
something; most don't though. They sit over a cup of coffee 
for 40 cents with free refills for hours."

Baumeier said he frequently studies at Country Kitchen, adding 
that the employees are nice whether you buy a meal or a cup of 
coffee.

Tim Western, manager and owner of Northtown, said, "I do not 
mind if students come in and study and just drink coffee. We 
hope that they will come back sometime and eat with us."

Some common characteristics that could cause the attraction 
were well-lit areas, long comfortable booths and wide tables, 
other students to talk to, free refills of coffee and tempting 
menus.

On Fridays and Saturdays there are some problems. The bar 
crowds start piling in around 1:00 a.m. Country Kitchen has 
rectified this problem by adopting a policy that politely 
removes the studying student drinking only coffee to another 
table, or they are asked to leave.

Northtown said this is not a problem because most students 
leave or have gone before the bar crowd comes in.

Western said, "If they are not, they are welcome to stay.
 Most prefer not to because of the noise."

Still another problem is the concern of the waitress. If 
students themselves, most waitresses don't mind waiting 
on the student. They have come to realize though, that 
they are losing money if their tables are taken by students. 
It is likely that the waitress will be pouring coffee and 
making small tips.

So, while there are problems for the restaurant owners, 
students find many reasons to visit restaurants late at 
night. The students' reasons range from finding a place 
to gather, to satisfying the munchies. In the early morning 
hours, the restaurants come alive with students. ECHO

Computer mastery research

Computers are usually associated with mathematics, but Sue Pieper, temporary part-time assistant 
instructor of English, has changed that association.

Pieper has been doing work toward a master's degree in English. To receive this degree, a student 
must either take comprehensive tests or write a thesis.

This year, Pieper is the only student in the language and literature division who chose to write a 
thesis.

"I didn't realize I could do research with my field," she said. "I thought it would be neat to work 
with computers."

Pieper's thesis, titled "A Study on the Effects of the Computer-Assisted Instruction on the Grammar 
of Freshman Composition Students," is being partially funded by the Division of Language and Literature.

"The study is something that the language and literature division would have commissioned, ultimately 
anyway, to determine the usefulness of the computer programs that we have," Heinz Woehlk, assistant 
professor of English, said.

Woehlk said the division plans to use the research to make decisions regarding the use of computer-
assisted instruction in the future.

The study involved 16 sections of English Composition I which included about 500 students. Eight of 
the 16 sections were control groups. The other eight groups were called experimental groups. Each 
student involved with the study took a pretest in January.

Students were tested in the areas of grammar recognition, paragraph revision and actual paragraph 
writing.

The experimental group then began a series of seven different English programs on grammar and writing 
in the computer-assisted instruction program in the Writing Skills Lab.

When the computer work was finished the control and the experimental groups took a post-test. A second 
post-test was then administered one month later to each of the groups for retention evaluation.

The test scores were recorded after each test for later evaluation and comparison. Faculty members not 
involved with the study evaluated the students' writing samples.

"I hope that by doing the programs the students' grammar will improve and that they will become less 
fearful of working with computers," Pieper said.

Pieper said that the study went well, but there were a few questions at the beginning of the semester. 
"I had to reassure a couple of my students that this was an English composition course and not a 
computer course."

Pieper hopes to finish her thesis this summer and graduate in August. ECHO Story by Tracy Dreessen

A COMPUTER PRINTOUT of test results helps graduate student Sue Pieper evalute research for her master's 
thesis. Pieper tested composition students to formulate a computer-assisted instruction thesis.

A change of face

Sometimes the object of a search is as close as your own backyard. After conducting a nationwide 
search to replace academic division heads, the University found the answer to at least part of 
the problem close to home.

The University began the selection process to fill the open positions with the appointment of a 
faculty committee by President Charles McClain. The committee conducted a national search for 
qualified applicants by advertising the position in higher education journals and to other colleges 
and universities, Darrell Krueger, dean of instruction, said.

From those applicants the committee nominates three to five candidates for review by McClain and 
the Board of Regents, who make a selection based on the application and interviews.

To be qualified as a division head the applicant must have a bachelor's and master's degree while 
a doctorate degree is "highly desirable," Krueger said.

Although one position still remains to be permanently filled, the University hired three new division 
heads. Of the three, two had previous ties with the University.

The University is continuing the search for a permanent replacement for Grace Devitt, head emeritus 
of the Division of Nursing. Devitt had served as the head of the division since it was created as a 
separate division in 1971. She was at the controls when it was accredited in 1978 and until her 
retirement in the summer of 1982. Until the position is filled Keela Day, assistant professor of 
nursing, is serving as interim division head.

Following the retirement of Dale Woods, head emeritus of the Division of Mathematics, the University 
found the replacement it needed already at the University. Following the regular nationwide search, 
Lanny Morley, associate professor of mathematics, was hired as the head of the division.

Not only has Morley taught at the University for 12 years, but he also received both his bachelor's 
and master's degrees here. The new division head earned his doctorate from the University of 
Missouri-Columbia.

Within the division Morley does not expect any major changes besides the usual ones that occur as a 
result of a change in leadership. "I do not see tremendous changes, but there are natural changes 
taking place." Morley said. "Computer science is making a big impact and there is a growing awareness 
in having more math in other areas outside of mathematics." 

The resignation of another division head Opened the position for a second alumnus of the University. 
Gordon Richardson, professor of education, resigned his position as head of the Division of Education 
for health reasons. "It was a matter of convenience really,"

PAPER IN HAND, Keith Peck, associate professor of mathematics, asks Lanny Morley, head of mathematics 
division a question. Morley was one of four new division heads hired this year.

A change of face

Richardson said. His doctor recommended Richardson reduce the amount of stress he 
faced. Because the classes he was interested in teaching needed an instructor, he 
chose to concentrate solely on teaching.

In the interim between his resignation and the hiring of the new division head, 
Judson Martin, professor of education, handled the duties of division head.

The University appointed an alumnus to permanently fill the job. Daniel Ball, 
professor of education, returned to his alma mater after a 17 year absence. 
Ball graduated from the University in 1965 with a bachelor of science in education 
degree. "I am really pleased to be given this opportunity, this challenge," he said.

Ball said he thinks the teacher education program will continue to improve. "I 
believe the quality of the teacher education system will be improved and I want 
to be a part of that."

As Morley said, most of the changes in the education will be matters of the personal 
style of the leader. "There will be changes simply by the nature of a new person," 
Ball said. "We will do those things necessary to improve the quality of the program."

The Division of Military Science was also provided new leadership beginning in the 
fall of 1982. The selection process for the division differs slightly from that used 
for other divisions. The division heads serve three-year assignments. At the end of 
that period the U.S. Army nominates a prospective division head and McClain approves 
the selection.

Lt. Col. Bruce Caine replaced Lt. Col. Homer Ledbetter who completed his three-year 
assignment. Caine anticipates no major changes. "We have a solid program here. We will 
make some minor adjustments in our instruction of leadership," he said.

Although each of the division heads runs his division according to his own view of 
leadership, all division heads have certain responsibilities. Division heads work 
with budgeting and class scheduling. They also are involved with student recruitment 
as well as the recruitment, hiring and evaluation of faculty members, Morley said.

Replacing a division head is a time-consuming process. Rarely does a University need 
to face the task four times in the same year. Each time a new division head is needed, 
the University must find leaders who believe in the same goals it is trying to 
promote. ECHO

ABOVE THE CROWD to point the way is where Dan Peterson, band director, must be to guide 210 
band members through the manuevers of a halftime show. Peterson plotted all the Gamblers' 
formations.

Motivation, talent, and student respect make him the

"He's really made a name for himself and the University, especially the University, in the 
five years he's been here," Barry Bernhardt, graduate assistant, said.

Dan "Pete" Peterson, director of bands, has done just that by organizing a total marching 
band program that has made the Showboat Gamblers Marching Band a major force in the Midwest. 
The band's videotaped performances are used at clinics across the country, and the Gamblers 
are invited to perform exhibitions at several competitions each year.

Peterson's strength comes from his talent for writing shows with distinctive drill designs. 
He considers a timing concept that requires the drill to change every 20 and 40 seconds to 
correlate with the audience's average attention span. "Different directions, different kinds 
of motions with the guard, and different sounds so that something new is happening all the 
time," Peterson said.

In addition, the entire show must incorporate a minimum of three things happening at one time, 
either visually, orally or a combination of the two "so that nobody can ever see everything."

Music plays a major role in the writing of a show. Peterson tapes the musical selections in the 
approximate arrangement that the band will play them for the show.

Then, he said, "Me and Mr. Tape and tape recorder go into a room like this (his office) or sometimes 
I have a hidden room in this building (Baldwin Hall) where no one can get to me, and I sit down and 
play it over and over and visualize what I think should be happening with the forms and the designs 
on the field while that music is going on." 

Peterson compares the show to a novel. "We have an opening where we introduce all our characters, 
and we have a production number where we have character development. Then we have a concert (segment) 
which is the building of the main part or meat of the show to the point where the plot has been 
developed and we're ready for a

conclusion. Our out-of-concert (segment) or drum solo often does that--brings some kind of 
conclusion, a very peak of intensity, and then we have our closing drill. That's the happy 
ending to the show where you conclude the plot, have resolution and ride off into the sunset."

The Showboat Gamblers march corps style, which aims toward a visual representation of the 
music on the field. "We try to do things (in a show) that have meaning musically. If we take 
the music away from our show and we just have 210 marchers out there, people will not watch 
us."

Unlike Big 10 marching, corps style has the music written first and then the drill. "We make 
our marching band a band first and a marching unit second," he said. "That's why we all carry 
horns, isn't it?"

The whole concept of a show involves an attempt to control the audience's emotions. "We want 
to get them excited and then release the intensity some more, so that by the end of the show 
we have them wiping the sweat off their brows."

Audience reaction is the key factor to a show's success. "We want them to react to us, to look 
at our show and say, 'My God, how are they doing all that?'"

If the reaction is not there, he knows that part of the show must be changed to prevent the 
audience from wanting to go and get popcorn. However, he cannot always predict the reaction. 
"There are at least a certain amount of times when we get audience reaction where I didn't 
expect it, which is really neat. Sometimes things just coordinate and happen, and that's the 
fun part.

Peterson's leadership in drill design carries over to his leadership program for the entire 
marching band system: student leadership. "It's impossible for one guy to do it (coordinate 
every aspect of a show)," he said.

Bernhardt said, "The thing that is - neat about our situation is that the students are involved; 
we're given responsibility."

Senior Mahlon Barker, who was one of this year's drum majors, points to motivation as the reason 
for Peterson's successful organization. "His whole philosophy is that he knows he can't do it all 
by himself. He's the organizer of the thing and it's his show, but we're the cogs and gears in 
the machine and he's the drive shaft," he said.

This program has evolved in the five years he has been here. "It (student leadership) is the one 
ingredient that's made the difference in the last three years as we've developed," he said. "The 
first couple of years I was here, the students wanted direction, they wanted me to do everything 
because they were concerned they wouldn't do things right," Peterson said. Now, students run the 
rehearsals.

Peterson finds it difficult to explain his dedication to the marching program. "I really believe 
in youth activity and what we do is a way that students can mature and grow," he said. "The payoff 
for me is seeing the graduates coming back with their bands or just coming back to watch our band."

"Part of it means I've had an effect on their lives, and part of it is just my love of seeing the 
band out there and knowing that that particular performance is an end result of so many hours of 
work and that we've accomplished something. We've set a goal and we've done it."

Because of his motivation, drive and talent, students respect Peterson as a leader. "There's a 
quality about him. He takes a body of people, who are not all music majors but just interested, 
and turns out the biggest sound in the Midwest," Barker said. "He gets people to perform above 
their capability; they don't give just lOO percent, they give 120." ECHO

Not only a woman's world

Picture a typical newlywed couple, the husband walks in, hugs his wife and asks, "What's for 
supper?" The wife responds, "Whatever Ryle Hall cafeteria is serving."

No, the scene is not from the life of a typical newlywed couple. The scene is from the living 
room of the Ryle Hall director's apartment.

Lynn Chambers Zanitsch, serving her second year as director of Ryle Hall married Dave Zanitsch 
in May, 1982.

This situation is not really unique. In 1976 there were married hall directors in Missouri, 
Centennial, Ryle, and Dobson halls, Bob Weith, assistant director of housing, said.

The situation, however, is new to the, Zanitsches. "There are adjustments because a hall 
director's job involves working three nights a week and the only time I see Dave is at 
night time," Lynn said. "On weekends we are really protective of the time we spend together 
because we do not see each other much Monday through Thursday."

Spending time, quality time, together seems to be the biggest disadvantage of the situation, 
yet they have little trouble with privacy. "The sign on the door (a wheel indicating where 
she is) helps. "It is like being in a fish bowl, but, at the same time, after 9 p.m., that 
ends it. We are pretty well by ourselves," Lynn said.

Lynn finished her master's degree in counseling in August and Dave will graduate in May 
with a bachelor's degree in political science.

"I think this is a great arrangement and that is because I have got a job I like and that 
job pays our food, rent and utilities. We have very few expenses. We also get a discount 
on tuition," Lynn said.

Being married has not seemed to affect Lynn's job as hall director. "Being a hall director 
affects my wife capabilities. Being a hall director is familiar and I am not familiar with 
being a wife," she said.

Weith said that married directors perform their jobs well, even though they have another 
person dependent on them. "Because they are married they have another person they need to 
commit time to. It is a full-time job." He said that he has found that "married people feel 
more comfortable, more at home, and are more mature."

"I think it is a challenge to be newly married and to be a hall director," Weith said. Weith 
knows the experience well, he also served as a hall director while married.

Being married to a hall director is also a challenge, but Dave has not encountered any real 
problems. "Because of Lynn's job it is not a normal apartment-living lifestyle. You have to 
be flexible to the residents and their needs. It is something we work together on so we can 
be flexible and conflicts do not arise," Dave said. "The Ryle Hall women have taken it real 
well. There are girls on the wing I've gotten to know real well, and the hall staff always 
teases me about not having an escort. I do not wander around the halls."

Actually, having married people in the hall can be an advantage for housing. It puts two sexes 
in the hall instead of just one. "Although only one is employed, there is another view point, 
one from the opposite sex," Weith said.

"When asked, I present the opinion or viewpoint from the male side, and some of the residents 
have asked advice from the male perspective," Dave said.

In other matters, however, Dave does not interfere. "I leave all of the hall things to her and 
try to keep away from the things that go on in the hall, but I try to support the hall," he 
said.

Residents of Ryle Hall may do a double take the first time they see "Lynn and Dave" on the door 
of the hall director's apartment, but in no time they get used to the advantages and disadvantages 
of having a married hall director. ECHO

Regenerating interest

Nobel Prize-winning scientists are honored with the memorial award for outstanding achievement 
in areas such as chemistry, medicine and physiology. Although Robert Cornell, associate professor 
of physiology, may be a long way from a trip to Sweden, he continues studies to prove his theory.

Cornell wrote a dissertation concerning the liver for his doctorate from the University of Illinois 
in Chicago. He then received a postdoctorate fellowship at Loyola University in Chicago for further 
liver studies.

When Cornell came to the University in 1974, he chose a particular aspect of the liver to study. He 
decided upon liver regeneration and later added the related aspect of liver functions and diabetes.

"It (the study) took about four years to get started and it's really been picking up during the last 
three years," Cornell said.

On the wall of Cornell's office hangs a large color poster of the mythical Prometheus and the vulture. 
Mythology says that Prometheus was condemned to be chained to a rock in hell and suffer the eternal 
agony of a vulture eating most of his liver every day.

"Even that far back, people had some concept that the liver, unlike any other organ, somehow grows 
back after it's been destroyed," Cornell said.

For nine years, Cornell has strived to prove his liver regeneration theory. More specifically, he 
is interested in describing what triggers liver regeneration to occur.

"We have bacteria in our large intestines which produce poisonous endotoxins and it's known that 
small amounts routinely leak into the bloodstream. Normally, the liver removes it by the functioning 
of the Kuppffer cells. But with a damaged liver, the Kuppffer cells can't remove the endotoxins and 
they can spread throughout the body. I've been able to show that endotoxin triggers the release of 
insulin and glucagon which triggers regrowth,"

Cornell performs all experiments on laboratory rats. The liver research will ultimately aid in 
regenerating liver growth in victims of hepatitis and cirrhosis which is a common disease among 
alcoholics. With both conditions, the liver is either destroyed or reduced in size.

"Ultimately, the results of the study can be used to find out what stimulates liver growth in 
humans. Then it can be used to save those who would die from liver disease," Cornell said.

To prove his theory, numerous experiments must be performed. But Cornell does not do them alone. 
Graduate student Curt McClellan is Cornell's right-hand man. Cornell and McClellan have collaborated 
on an article in a scientific journal about his liver research.

In addition, six undergraduates help Cornell for one hour of credit each. Cornell said the students 
devote two hours a week to his research for the credit. "It (the research) gives students the 
opportunity to see how sophisticated equipment works," Cornell said.

Nine years of extensive research also requires a lot of money. Cornell received a grant for several 
pieces of equipment from the National Institute of Health. He was also allotted a three year grant 
for $21,000 from the American Diabetes Association. Cornell is required to send extensive periodic 
reports to these foundation to receive renewals.

Criteria for the grant involves careful planning. Cornell said the researcher must plan an independent 
investigation and have the proper facilities and time for research. Then an extensive plan must be 
submitted providing background information and its relationship to the intended goal.

Cornell said the University administration had been very generous with funds to help supply his 
research. Cornell has applied for a $2,000 grant from the University in order to devote his summer 
solely to his liver research.

Cornell said he is grateful for the funds he has received but he is always looking for more sources. 
Not nearly as much money is available for liver research as is for heart, cancer and muscular dystrophy 
research. At the same time, not as many people are competing for the liver research grants, so, 
Cornell said, "It really balances itself out."

For nine years, Cornell has had his eyes on a goal which might eventually lead to an even greater 
impact on mankind. But research, extensive, meticulous research, requires time and money and Cornell 
is constantly looking for more of both. Whether Cornell's liver research will lead to something as 
prestigous as a Nobel Prize, only time will tell. For now, he is concentrating on fascinating but 
rather offbeat research which is, first and foremost, important to Cornell. ECHO

The ability of the University to lead was reflected in many aspects of the academic program.

Although admission to the University was made more difficult through the tightening of standards, 
enrollment continued to rise.

The administration and faculty continued efforts to add value to education through a variety of 
programs including the establishment of minimum writing competency tests for English composition 
classes.

Some programs showed signs of the success of their efforts. The Division of Nursing had l00 percent 
of its graduates pass the nursing licensing examination and the Division of Home Economics was one 
of only four Missouri schools to receive program accreditation.

With an emphasis on excellence and value, each division took steps to make its programs coordinate 
with the overall goals of University academic improvement. A desire for proficiency and perfection 
keeps the University IN THE LEAD.

Strictly advisory

Seemingly endless questions forever haunt students. First, it is the choice of major. Then, 
it's what classes to take and with whom. Next, it is in what order should they be taken, and 
the list goes on and on.

All students are assigned faculty advisers. These advisers are provided to help in the search 
for logical solutions to the endless questions.

In the Division of Business a slightly different approach is being taken. Academic advisers are 
an attempt to provide increasingly larger numbers of business students with more individualized 
attention. "Business students don't get as much individualized attention," Barbara McMasters, 
academic adviser, said. This lack of individualized attention is due in part to the dramatic 
growth of the division in the past few years.

As full-time academic advisers, McMasters and Sara Beth Fouch are each assigned approximately 
200 advisees, Robert Dager, head of the Division of Business, said. Usually, faculty advisers 
handle between 30 and 60 students in comparison.

The addition of full-time advisers has not removed the responsibilities of advising students 
from the faculty, but it has lightened the load, Dager said.

The main reason the full-time advisers were hired was because the faculty was unable to handle 
the large number of majors, he said. "Every full-time business faculty member has advisees," 
Dager said.

If the faculty members each have lOO advisees he said they are not as effective as when they only 
must handle 40 or 50 students. The fulltime advisers are no more qualified than the faculty but by 
focusing attention only on advising they improved the effectiveness of the faculty as well, he said.

Academic advisers have many of the same duties as faculty advisers. They talk to prospective students, 
help with class scheduling, provide information about possible career choices and assist with the many 
forms students must complete.

Both Fouch and McMasters said the individualized attention provided is a positive aspect to the 
position. Despite having 200 advisees each, both see a good percentage of the students assigned 
to them.

Senior Sandy Armstrong switched from a faculty adviser to McMasters. "My adviser last year wasn't 
familiar with all the technical requirements. I was trying to transfer a credit from a junior college 
and we just weren't sure about the requirements," Armstrong said.

Junior Barb Becker has had Fouch as an adviser for three years. "She's always around when I need 
someone to just go in and talk to, not just to help with classes. She's just like mom," Becker 
said.

"We become a home base for a lot of students. We are here to listen. We can advise, but the student 
has to make the decision in the long run," Fouch said.

"Students know we care and can depend on us because they know we are going to be here everyday from 
8 to 5," McMasters said.

Fouch has been an academic adviser for the past three years. She enjoys her position here. "I enjoy 
working at the University. I like the University atmosphere and I enjoy being a part of it," Fouch 
said.

McMasters, a 1982 graduate, began working for the University this year. "I feel really lucky to have 
such a position available. It has provided me with good work experience in education

business majors.

and business. I have enjoyed the experience. I have a good feeling about coming to work 
everyday, and I feel like I am doing something worthwhile.

Junior Tony Koehler is one of Fouch's advisees. "I think she is really on top of things. 
She has kept me on the right track."

McMasters and Fouch both display enthusiasm and pride in the division. "I'm really sold on 
NMSU and I have a lot of confidence in the business program. I like showing freshmen and 
new transfer students how they can be a part of it," McMasters said.

Although academic advisers do not replace the faculty adviser, it does allow the student to 
become better acquainted with his adviser, whether it is a faculty member or academic adviser. 
It also allows advisers to become more familiar with their advisees and the decisions they must 
make. ECHO

Although the change was only noticed by a few, the combination created a Major merger

Students and faculty have seen little change with the merger of the special education 
department into the Division of Education.

"I haven't noticed any real change. I just have to talk to a different division head," 
senior Yvetta Bradley said. "I haven't seen any disadvantages in the change."

Before the summer of 1982 special education was a department under the Division of Special 
Programs. Also part of the division was the speech pathology department. During the summer 
the division dissolved and special education was absorbed into the Division of Education.

"The change went into effect last July," Daniel Ball, head of the Division of Education, 
said. "There could be several reasons for the change, like the school's financial situation; 
it may be cheaper. Another reason could be because of the retirement of the special programs 
head, Bill Hall."

The dissolution of the Division of Special Programs also affected the speech pathology 
department within the division and the Speech and Hearing Clinic associated with it. The 
Speech and Hearing Clinic and the speech pathology-audiology department were divided into 
a separate entity under the control of William McClelland, director of the department of 
speech pathology-audiology.

After the separation special education went totally under the jurisdiction of the Division 
of Education. Ball questioned the reason the two divisions had not been combined sooner.

"Traditionally, in most schools, the special programs division is always under education," 
Ball said. "I've only been here since July 1, 1982. Personally, I don't see why they were 
ever two separate divisions."

The combination of the divisions was smooth and went unnoticed by most of the students in 
both the education division and the special education department.

"I haven't seen a change. All the education instructors are really nice to me. The education 
instructors have even given me good recommendations for jobs," senior Brad Buckner said.

"The only setback there may be is an identity problem," Ball said. "Some of the staff may think 
our status isn't as high, but I don't think that will last."

To some students the change was not even noticed. "It really hasn't effected me that much since 
I'm a senior. Most of the education classes I've already taken. I really didn't know it had changed 
until October," senior Mary Bundshuh said.

Ball said the change was a good one and the quality of the program at the University was 
outstanding. "This school is the best in the state and probably several states for special 
education majors because they can get certified in four different areas: learning 
disabilities, emotionally disabled, mental retardation and early childhood handicaps," 
Ball said. ECHO

Jones, assistant professor of art, said. Jones teaches Commercial Art and Drawing I.

Even basic drawing classes require the student to buy items such as drawing pencils, special gum 
and kneaded erasers, different charcoals, brushes, inks, pens, drawing pads and a textbook. Why 
so many supplies for a beginning class?

"This is a foundations class," Jones said. "We try to expose the student to the different types 
of mediums. You have to know the best way to express the idea."

A consolation to the expenses is that "everything we buy, we use," junior Holly Griffen, advertising 
design major, said.

But besides facing what can be phenomenal costs, the art student faces yet another hitch in the lack 
of accessibility.

Jones said the main places to shop for art supplies in Kirksville are Baldwin's Biz Mart and the Campus 
Bookstore.

"We're limited here," he said. He said art instructors can sometimes order materials from larger cities 
by the bulk for the students.

Students may also decide to pool together and order material themselves for a cheaper price.
 
(Page 187)

Pay the price

Some art students may spend as much as $200 a semester, Jones said. Art classes differ in expense 
although most have lab fees ranging from $5 to $30.

"It never really gets any cheaper," he said. "The more serious you are about your art, the more 
it's going to cost you."

Freshman art student Carol Birdsell said, "You can get by with the cheap stuff but not if you're 
worried about your grades." Senior Dena Henry, art education major, said she found her senior year 
to be the most expensive. "One project I did last semester cost me about $45," Henry said. "You 
never know how much you're going to spend. You can't really prepare for it."

Senior Dean Locke, art education major, said if it was not for his parents' support he would have 
a hard time keeping up with his art. "I go through about $30 a week at the minimal for buying stuff 
for classes," Locke said. "If I had to make my own living, I'd probably be living in a trash can."

"You have to look at it as an investment," junior Elly Ardan, advertising major, said.

"They do keep everything they make," Jones said. Junior Dawn Wohlford, sculpture and ceramics major, 
said she is lucky because ceramics sell well in this area. "You get back more than what you put into 
it," she said.

The University does provide equipment such as easels, drawing tables and printing presses for art 
students.

"I suppose they (the University) provide enough for the funds they have," Ardan said. Painting class 
is one of the most expensive art classes to take. "A lot of people drop that because they can't 
afford it," Birdsell said.

"I haven't taken it (painting) because I can't afford it," sophomore Lorie Shumate, art major, said.

"Other students probably spend their spending money on clothes and things," Wohlford said. "I have to 
spend it on art supplies."

Jones said that a few scholarships are given to freshmen to help with expenses. "Unfortunately 
though," he said, "we just don't have the money to give."

William Murray, associate professor of art, said art costs are not measured only in money.

"It's very expensive in time," Murray said. "An art student has to spend twice as much time in 
classes." Many art classes meet six hours a week for three credit hours.

"Anything to do with art is expensive," junior Tom Ricks, advertising design major, said. Ricks 
and fellow art students are easily identifiable on campus because of the armful of supplies they 
carry. To Ricks the real trouble with being an art major "is not being able to open a door."ECHO

Efforts to improve fitness make the Human Performance Lab a

"You should lose some weight. . ." For many people, this is both hard to say and difficult 
to accept. But for the people at the Human Performance Laboratory, it's all part of their 
job.

"For most students, the only time they would ever have come in contact with us is through 
the PE lOO class," Jerry Mayhew, associate professor of physical education and director of 
the Lab, said. "Part of the Lab's work involves testing the physiological makeup of students 
in that PE class. We run each of the students through a series of tests to determine their 
present state of physical fitness."

The Lab's work doesn't end there. Mayhew said the Lab has four main functions. "We function 
as a service, learning, rehabilitation and research lab."

When the Lab was originally set up seven years ago it was used almost exclusively as a test 
lab. "We didn't have the diversified equipment that we have today so we were just mainly 
involved in testing the fitness of students. But the capabilities of the Lab have more than 
tripled in what we can measure in the eight years I've been here."

As compared to other universities of similar size and even some of the larger schools, Mayhew 
said the Lab is one of the best equipped in the Midwest. "We have the ability to measure many 
different aspects of fitness and the body that some of the biggest schools in the area don't. 
I'd estimate we have almost $100,000 worth of equipment in the Lab. The University has shown 
an excellent commitment to the work done here, and we've begun to take great strides in our 
efforts."

The equipment ranges from exercise bikes to a new computer to record and evaluate data that is 
collected. Other equipment includes a treadmill with inclining capabilites, an oxygen consumption 
testing machine, both resting and exercising EKG machines and a Sybex machine which is used to 
test leg muscle strength This machine is used extensively by people on rehabilitation programs 
for knee and other leg injuries.

The service aspect of the Lab centers around the basic testing of physical fitness. "The biggest 
area that we do this is in the PE 100 classes," Kathy Mueller, graduate student and temporary 
part-time assistant instructor in physical education, said.

"Many of the students are apprehensive at first when they learn they are going to get their body 
fat measured and their weight and overall fitness evaluated," she said. "After they go through the 
program they are more aware of their physiology and most are glad to have had it done. It gives 
them a chance to see what and

how we measure fitness and how those averages relate to fitness."

The fitness evaluation consists of four categories. The categories include cardio 
vascular, body fat percentage, muscle strength and flexibility. All students of the 
class have this done as well as any outside group which might come in for evaluation.

Other groups are measured for their fitness level besides just the PE classes. "We've 
had the Girl Scouts, Kirksville Fire Department, YMCA personnel, some area high school 
athletes and students from KCOM all come in and get evaluated," Mayhew said. "This is 
another of the service aspects of the Lab. Anyone who's interested in their fitness 
level can come in and get evaluated. At some health spas or clubs it might cost you 
over $50 for a single evaluation, here it's free."

The second function of the Lab is an area of learning. "To a certain degree all PE majors 
are familiar with the Lab. Almost every PE class in the upper levels is involved in some 
type of work here. It doesn't always involve extensive research but usually is an educational 
tool," Mayhew said.

In the analysis and teaching classes, students learn how the body works and how muscles work 
together and develop power. "Through these classes, the Lab shows our students how to be 
better coaches once they get into the schools by giving the information on maximizing strength 
that might not have been available otherwise," he said.

"Before, most of the information available to us was just in the books," Lori Buatte, graduate 
student and TPTAI in physical education, said. "With the Lab, we can actually see the concepts 
put to use. We are able to see how the muscles act and build power instead of just reading 
about it."

The third function of the Lab is in rehabilitation of injuries of both athletes and nonathletes.

"Probably one of the biggest areas in which the average student might come here is in the 
rehabilitation of an injury," Mayhew said. "We see almost all of the injuries to University 
athletic team members. In addition, we see many students who aren't on athletic teams but who 
might have injured an ankle or leg while skiing or something." He said the Lab also sees some 
of the area high school athletes who've suffered injuries as well as some Kirksville residents.

Through the use of the equipment in the Lab, the personnel there set up a program of recovery 
for the patient. "We design a program of rehabilitation for them and then they take it from 
there. All of the programs are such that they can come up here and go through their exercises 
or whatever without assistance from the staff," Mayhew said.

The fourth function of the Lab and the one which is increasing the most is in research. "It may 
sound weird but we have the most leg strength data of any school in the country. We've collected 
data from over 500 students enrolled in PE lOO over the last seven years, or almost 3,500 students. 
In addition, all the outside people we've had come here for help or measurement," he said.

The Lab is also involved in a number of joint studies with other universities across Missouri and 
the Midwest. "We're definitely playing hard ball when it comes to our research. We've had or have 
right now joint studies with the University of Northern Iowa, Southern Illinois-Edwardsville, 
University of Nebraska-Omaha, Missouri Western and the University of South Carolina.

Mayhew said the future of the Lab looks to be very promising. "This fall we will be implementing 
a master's in physical education-sports science degree. There is also a strong possibility that 
we will implement a master's of science degree in five years or so."

One of the big studies the Lab is currently undertaking is updating the norms for the average 
college student. "We've been telling the students how they compared with college students across 
the country, but those standards may have, and probably have, changed over time," Mayhew said. 
The process involves feeding the information gained from the seven years of measurements of all 
those PE classes into a computer. The results will then be tabulated and Mayhew says the results 
will be a new set of norms that will differ from what was used in the past.

"The goal of this research is to give us an idea of the minimum fitness level for everyone. 
These would be standards for every individual to compare himself to in order to determine if 
they are physically fit."

There have been 22 master's theses produced in the seven years the Lab's been in existence. 
Four of those have gone on to be published as research studies. "Anytime you have this type 
of work being done it reflects the type of quality program we have here," he said. ECHO

By gaining the approval of AHEA, the Division could boast A full measure

As standards continue to be strengthened throughout the University system, one division 
acquired outside sanction of its program. The Division of Home Economics was accredited 
by the American Home Economics Association, culminating a process that had extended over 
three years.

Missouri has only three other schools that are accredited in home economics: the University 
of Missouri at Columbia, Northwest Missouri State University and Fontbonne in St. Louis. 
Students said this made accreditation more prestigious. "I'm sure that (accreditation) has 
a lot of influence on employers," senior Brenda Brammer said.

The division officially began seeking accreditation in the spring of 1979 after permission 
had been granted by Darrell Krueger, dean of instruction. "We applied as a division and were 
sent material from AHEA," Lydia Inman, head of the Division of Home Economics, said. The 
application was taken to the AHEA Council for Professional Development, "a special council 
set up to review accreditation requests. We sent in a self-study, and the Council reviewed 
it." Because the Council meets only once a year, the process of application and arrangements 
for a visit to the division were delayed a year, Inman said.

Three professors of home economics from across the country and an AHEA representative, none 
of whom belonged to the Council for Professional Development, comprised a professional team 
which reviewed the division, Inman said. "They looked at facilities, curriculum and faculty, 
and interviewed a lot of other faculty, administration, other students and alumni. This team 
was not compensated; they saw it as a professional commitment," Inman said.

The review team then wrote a report and submitted it to the division for approval. The

report and the division's response were then sent to the 15-member Council for Professional 
Development. Final notification of accreditation was received this fall.

"Accreditation means that we have met minimum standards for an approved program in home 
economics. We feel it was important and good for us because it says we are really qualified. 
We're not a large program, but we're a good program," Inman said.

"Accreditation says that the division is given a merit rating by the professionals, that we 
have met certain standards," Charlotte Revelle, associate professor of home economics, said. 
"This is just one facet of the division attempting to have a very high quality program."

Both Inman and Revelle agreed that accreditation will benefit the University's home economics 
graduates. "Accreditation adds prestige to the degree; it is helpful to know that we have the 
approval of people we respect in the profession. It also tells students that they picked a 
good school," Inman said.

Accreditation also helps in recruiting. "Basically, everything comes down to looking for a job 
when you get out," senior Sherri Hill said.

Another development in the Division of Home Economics is the Lydia Inman Scholarship, which will 
be offered for the first time during the 1983-84 school year to honor Inman who retires this 
spring.

"The home economics faculty started the scholarship fund with donations. There have also been other 
donations to the fund from alumni, students and the Missouri Home Economics Association," Revelle 
said. "We're visualizing this as prestigious; it would go to a high school senior going to NMSU 
this fall--an entering freshman majoring in home economics."

The recipient must have a 3.25 high school grade point average, which he will be required to 
maintain during his first semester in college, and will have to carry at least 12 semester 
hours, Revelle said. "The idea is that it would be for a student with high possibilities."

Selection will be done by the home economics faculty, who will also look at high school activities 
and professional promise, Revelle said.

"We visualize it (the scholarship) to be renewable although there is not enough money for it to be 
so right now. It'll be ongoing, but what it'll be worth after this year will depend on the amount 
of gifts given. And as to how many years it will be available, at this point, we don't know," 
Revelle said. ECHO

For a grade, Composition I students had to write an essay to be tried by Judge and Jury

Reading, 'riting, and 'rithmetic are the three R's emphasized throughout school. Composition 
instructors have taken a firm stand emphasizing writing to ensure students acquire and maintain 
minimum writing competency.

A new program has been developed to more closely evaluate the competency of students.

Using a testing process and "juried reading," English Composition I instructors are trying to 
measure students mastery of the basic level of writing needed in everyday life.

The testing process begins when the student is given a list of possible topics a week before 
the actual test. On the test day he has 50 minutes to write an in- class essay.

Two composition instructors, other than the student's own, then evaluate the essay on a 
satisfactory or unsatisfactory basis. If the two instructors come to different conclusions, 
the essay is given to a third instructor to judge. The test must be retaken if the paper 
is found to be unsatisfactory.

The grade the student receives is not affected by the test; however, the test must be passed 
before a grade is given.

"I passed it real easy," freshman Ross Hemsley said, "but it didn't have anything to do with 
what my grade was. One girl flunked it and she got an A in the class."

The paper is judged in a number of different areas. First, it must state the main idea or 
thesis and be developed with a variety of ideas and support. The essay should display proper 
grammar, punctuation and spelling. Finally, it should show expression, good word choice, style 
and tone.

"You should be concerned with your readers; you don't want to bore them," Shirley Morahan, 
assistant professor of English, said. "These are things that we call minimum skills." Every 
student should have these skills, Morahan said.

"I didn't think it was a fair way to decide if you passed the class or not," freshman Kathy 
Stuart said. "It's important to teach thesis development, but I think this way of going about 
it is not right."

"I don't think this proved it (minimum competency)," freshman Scott Locke said. "There definitely 
should be a certain measurement. I don't think writing that essay, the way they constructed it, 
measured minimum competency. Some people could write good during the year and have an off day."

"A student must be able to meet requirements and produce an essay on demand," Morahan said.

"It doesn't prove anything," Hemsley said. "The way they are doing it doesn't prove if you are 
a good student or a bad student," he said.

Other students are concerned with the consistency of the grading. Freshman Ann Elise McAvoy said, 
"I think it kind of shows the inconsistency of teachers. One will say it's all right and another 
won't even say you have minimum competency."

"The people who grade the essays are doing so because they think it needs to be done," Morahan said. 
"They have added in about twenty hours of their own time."

"President (Charles) McClain is pleased with it," she said. "It is absolutely in time with the value- 
added education." ECHO

Terminal transition

Books have different effects on different people. Some people fear them, some find them a 
source of pleasure, some revere them, but few could imagine a world without them.

At Pickler Memorial Library, a computerization project may mark the end of stumbling through 
card catalogs, reserve shelves, and possibly the end of books as we know them.

Although the final go ahead has not yet been given, plans are being made for the computerization 
of information in Pickler Memorial Library.

Because of uncertainty of funding, no definite dates have been set for completion of the 
computerization project. In the General Revenue Request 1983-84, there is a request for 
$390,184 for hardware and $31,200 for annual maintenance toward the library computerization 
project. If state revenues increase, money is appropriated and the governor does not veto or 
withhold part of the funds, the University will get the money needed, John Jepson, budget 
director, said.

The computerization of information will not change, the library budget, George Hartje, director of 
libraries, said. "Automation is not cheaper, but it eliminates the manual system and provides better 
service and management." 

Hartje said computerization may, in time, put books in the same category as cuneiform tablets. 
"Eventually, the book as we know it, will disappear," Hartje said. "More and more of your print 
material is being replaced with microform, both for preservation and conservation of space."

Hartje said the efforts to computerize Pickler began eight years ago. "In 1975, we joined what 
was then called Ohio College Library Center. Its now called On-Line Catalog Center."

The library is currently in the process of placing all available card catalog information on 
magnetic tape. "The information on the card catalog is basic to everything that happens in the 
library," he said. "That magnetic tape is the basis." He said the card catalog should all be on 
magnetic tape by the end of 1983.

"The really super thing about it (computerization) is finding out if the book is on the shelf," 
Daren McClaskey, head reference librarian, said. Other functions such as recalling books, checking 
holds and putting on holds, assessment of fines, locking out lost IDs and finding overdue books 
will also be made easier by using a computer, Nancy Hulen, head of the circulation department, 
said.

Odessa Ofstad, Special Collections librarian, said Special Collections will be put on the computer 
now. She added that the index to the Index, the archives and Nemoscope might be added in the future.

"It's not a simple and concise project, it's an ongoing project," Hartje said.

When completed, students will only have to type up a subject or title on a computer terminal to 
gain access to the books, but the question of how many terminals and what kind of system remains 
unanswered. "There had been some research, but nobody has any answers," Hartje said.

"The software package we pick will allow us to automate everthing in the library," he said. There 
are four options being evaluated for use in PML: the turn-key system of buying from a private 
company which provides both soft and hardware, a joint system with a live operation, buying a 
software package developed by another library and an in-house development of a whole system. 
With any of these choices, it will mean a third system of hardware on campus, this one specifically 
dedicated to the library, Hartje said.

Hardware includes a central processing unit and equipment like terminals and printers. Software 
consists of programs that process and control storage of the information.

The system chosen will also be user-friendly, it will be designed to have help screens of directions 
and computer usage information.

Most libraries have only part of their information on-line, Hartje said. "We anticipate all of our 
holdings going on-line."

Ideally, any terminal on campus should be able to access the information. "That's what we are 
striving to," Hartje said. One problem that is being taken into consideration is that the 
University has different brands of computers and they can not interface or share information 
with each other unless some type of translator is used.

When the system is implemented, there will be a terminal on each floor and in each area of the 
library. The replacement of the card catalog will physically be taken by 10 to 15 terminals, 
some with printers attached. For a while, the card catalog will be kept as a back-up system. 
"I don't know how soon we'll get rid of it (card catalog), but at some point we'll stop filing 
cards," Hartje said.

With the added terminals, access to the information will be easier, but not all information will 
be available to everyone. Card catalog and circulation status will be accessable by everyone. 
User's names, fines and acquisition information will be reserved for library personnel, Hartje 
and Hulen said.

The changes that will occur in employment will not be in the number of jobs available, but in 
the type of jobs done.

"What I'll do is simply transfer the activities," Hartje said. "There will be a realignment of 
responsibilities."

"It will drastically change the duties," Hulen said, but not take away any jobs. What she does 
will be done in a different fashion. In the future, she would like to see self-service check out, 
but for now she said that was unrealistic.

"I will need to learn that data base to use it effectively, to help people here," Ofstad said.

"I think it will make it a lot easier for us," McClaskey said. "We've all had a little experience 
(with computers)." The teaching of library personell will be done by the computer venders, but she 
wonders how the (librarians) will be able to get all the students onto terminals for the required 
library resources class.

"I don't know if it would be good for everybody, some people may not work well with computers," 
freshman Julie Canull, said.

"I think it'll be terrific. Ours (libraries) at home are computerized and it really helps a lot," 
sophomore Colleen Conrad said. ECHO Story by Debbie Bellus and Glenn Changar

Keyed up

Computer science is no longer an option in the Division of Mathematics, but now a major, 
since the change last fall.

The option was changed to a major "so that the name reflects the discipline in the field," 
Wayne Bailey, professor of computer science, said. "It's a fairly dynamic field that is 
changing so fast," he said.

Statistics and liberal arts are still an option in the division. But because of an increase 
in technology and the demand for persons qualified in the computer science field, the change 
was made.

"It's a growing field and the opportunities are good," Bailey said.

Junior Steve Hussey said the change was a good idea since the advancement of computers and 
technology made it necessary. "I feel any student should take at least one computer course 
because everything is computerized now," he said. "You walk into grocery stores and they 
are using computers."

There has also been an increase in the number of students in the computer science program 
which led to the change.

"We're getting large numbers of students and good quality students in the program," Lanny 
Morley, head of the Division of Mathematics, said, "and we are looking for additional 
faculty

program. In computer-related classes, students learn to use computers and analyze results.
 
(Page 197)

members due to the increase."

Morley said another reason was to accurately describe what the program is trying to offer. He 
said companies who look at students in the program will be more interested if they see that the 
student majored in computer science rather than in mathematics with computer science as an option. 
Approximately 200 students were in the program in the spring. Most were freshmen.

The increase also related the need for more equipment. In September the Board of Regents appropriated 
about $69,600 for the purchase of microcomputers.

"About 30 new computers were purchased in the fall for both faculty and student use," Bailey said.

The microcomputers were purchased to give computer science majors, and other students also, hands-on 
experience and to decrease the load placed on the IBM computer system, Dave Rector, director of computer 
services, said.

Before the purchase of the new computers, there were about 1,250 students enrolled in computer-related 
courses but only 50 terminals available in campus.

"We added a microcomputer lab in the fall semester which houses the computers," Bailey said.

In addition to the computers housed in the lab, units were also purchased for use in other divisions 
and offices. The newly-purchased computers are independent units each equipped with a printer and 
computer keyboard. The units can be used either with or without the floppy discs on which information 
is permanently stored. They increase the University's computer capacity to about 20 times that of 1978.

The increased computer capacity comes at a time when Bailey estimates the number of students has 
probably increased by about 75 percent over the previous year.

The growing fascination with computer technology leads Bailey and others to believe the program will 
continue to grow every year. Bailey said he feels the University has an excellent program. "We expect 
another large increase next year."

As the program grows the University attempts to fulfill the requirements of its students, and as the 
computer science field grows so does the University's program, both in students and equipment. ECHO

Committed to a degree

At a time when financial aid is so difficult to obtain, many students are turning to the ROTC 
program to help pay their way through college. A junior or senior in the program earns $100 a 
month for being in ROTC. A few ROTC members are also scholarship recipients and end up paying 
little from their own pockets for a college education. Their only obligation is a four-year 
commitment to the U.S. Army, Army Reserve, or Army National Guard after graduation.

Scholarship cadets, in addition to normal studies, take prescribed military science courses. 
They complete five military professional electives, one semester of a foreign language course, 
participate in scheduled leadership laboratories and attend the six-week ROTC advanced camp, 
usually between their junior and senior years.

Upon successful completion of military science and bachelor's degree requirements, scholarship 
cadets are commissioned as second lieutenants in the U.S. Army, U.S. Army Reserve or in the U.S. 
Army National Guard and one of the branches of the Army, which include infantry, engineer, armor 
and medical corps. Individual branch preferences are considered, subject to the needs of the Army, 
at the time of commissioning.

During the ROTC advanced course, usually early in their senior year, cadets request the branches 
of the Army in which they would like to be commissioned. They indicated a first, second, third, 
fourth and fifth choice. The needs of the Army will come first, but most students are commissioned 
in one of their first two choices.

For individuals interested in pursuing postgraduate studies, th Army permits additional opportunities 
for civilian education after commissioning.

Of 27 scholarship recipients there are three four-year recipients; nine three-year recipients, and 
15 two-year scholarship recipients.

Under current policy, scholarship cadets selected for Army, Army Reserve or Army National Guard may 
request a delay in reporting to duty for up to two years for the purpose of earning a master's or 
professional degree at no expense to the Army. This policy is dependent upon the officer needs of 
the army. Regular Ar-

my officers competitively selected to attend civilian institutions after entry on active 
duty do so with full pay and allowances.

A U.S. Army ROTC scholarship pays for college tuition and a flat rate from which textbooks, 
equipment and supplies may be purchased, as well as on-campus laboratory fees and other 
related academic expenses, for the period of the scholarship. Army ROTC scholarship winners 
also receive a tax-free subsistence allowance of $100 per month for 10 months each academic 
year that the scholarship is in effect. Including pay earned attending the advanced camp, an 
ROTC scholarship can be worth thousands of dollars.

"I was offered a Reserve Forces Scholarship after I completed basic camp, so I took it. If I 
hadn't been offered a scholarship, I would have applied for one," senior Jeff Menz said.

To be eligible for a scholarship the student must be of good moral character, participate as 
a member of his community and school, be a citizen of the United States, be at least 17 years 
of age and under 25 on June 30 of the year they are to be commissioned, exhibit a strong desire 
to obtain a commission and bachelor's degree, exhibit potential of becoming an effective Army 
officer, be medically qualified for enrollment into ROTC and be a full-time student in any major 
course of study leading to a bachelor's degree.

"We look for outstanding individuals. They must be able to handle their academic classes and 
show interest in leadership," Major Stephen Lattimore, assistant professor of military science, 
said. "People aren't born leaders, they are trained to be leaders."

Scholarship students are expected to maintain acceptable standards of academic achievement, 
personal conduct and physical fitness. They must rank in the upper half of their Army ROTC 
class and demonstrate leadership potential.

"Usually, about one-third of our sophomore class qualify for our advanced program. The 
remaining people don't qualify because of low grades or medical reasons, etc.," Lattimore 
said.

Congress has passed a law that requires scholarship recipients to serve as enlisted members 
of the Army as repayment for the cost of the scholarship if they fail to complete the ROTC 
program and accept a commission as an officer. This provision is binding for three- and 
four-year recipients when they enter their sophomore year (Military Science II) and for 
two-year scholarship recipients when they enter their junior year (Military Science III).

"When I get commissioned, I will go into the reserves for six years. It's really not bad. 
Just one weekend a month and two weeks during the summer," senior Ethan Allen, two-year 
scholarship recipient, said.

"Probably the biggest problem students have with accepting a scholarship is the time 
obligations. For someone who is only 19 or 20 years old, four years seems like a 
lifetime," Lattimore said. "We don't want to push anyone into anything. The student 
has to weigh the advantages and disadvantages and then make his or her own decision."

A professor of military science can temporarily or permanently take a scholarship away 
if he perceives an insincere commitment on the recipient's part to remain in the 
scholarship program.

Individuals who do not feel they can participate in the program under these conditions 
should not apply. When the students enter the advanced course, they agree to finish ROTC 
instruction, to accept a commission and to accept an assignment. All ROTC scholarship 
recipients are obligated to serve on active duty for four years.

"When these students are commissioned as second lieutenants, we know they are responsible, 
goal-oriented people. Not just for themselves, but for the people they will be leading." 
Lattimore said. ECHO

A shot of

The nursing program, is developing students who are proud of their schooling and 
prepared for the nursing world.

However, many students are apprehensive about their ability to handle the course 
load.

"As freshmen we heard rumors that only half of the nursing students (that attend 
the University) pass the state board. That's not true," senior Phyllis Bevill, 
president of the Student Nursing Association, said.

While the apprehension is very real, the rumors are unfounded. In the summer of 
1982, the University had 26 students take the National Council Licensing Exam for 
Registered Nurses, which allows the students to practice nursing after passing the 
exam; they all passed, Keela Day, acting head of the Division of Nursing, said.

"I wasn't surprised (that all of those who took the test passed); I was overjoyed," 
senior Missy Rowe said.

The test is offered every six months. "You have to have an academic program that will 
prepare you," Day said. "The test looks at application of the nursing process towards 
a variety of clinical and client situations."

The nursing students credited the high percentage of students passing the NCLEX-RN with 
the strength of the program. "We have a pretty good program. There is no perfect program, 
but the one here does a good job," Rowe said.

"I think they provide all of the necessary information that is needed," senior Cecelia 
Roark, vice president of SNA, said.

"I feel confident that they are giving us the theory we need to know. They are giving us 
a broad base," Bevill said.

Day said the strength of the program depends upon the quality of the students. "We strive 
to get strong freshmen," she said. The classes "decrease and stabilize in quality. Nothing 
has just happened over the past one or two years.

"Since the inception (of the program) we have gotten better and better."

The students said hard work and determination are necessary factors in making it through the 
program.

"The nursing program is hard to begin with," Bevill said. "You can't expect to get through 
without working."

The strong freshman classes and stabilizing of quality have given the nursing division an 
average grade point of 3.20 as of September, 1982, Day said, compared to the University 
average of 2.81 for 1982.

Also, through a process of knowledge testing, essay writing and interviewing, Rowe was chosen 
Missouri Student Nurse of the Year for last year, Roark said. "I was selected for this year; I

A welcome addition

The campaign to raise academic standards at the University includes providing students 
with adequate facilities. For that reason Barnett Hall is being expanded to include 
laboratories and classrooms for agriculture students.

The new addition to the structure originally called the Industrial Education Building was 
built to create space for the agriculture department in the Division of Practical Arts. 
"This building (I.E.) was not designed for agriculture," Roland Nagel, head of the Division 
of Practical Arts, said.

The addition provides four instructional laboratories, a small chemistry laboratory, a plant 
science laboratory, a meatlocker, rooms for feed storage and small animals, and a large seminar 
room which can be divided into four separate classrooms through the use of folding partitions. 
The addition also includes offices for faculty of the division, Nagel said.

Construction of the addition began in August 1981 and was originally scheduled for completion 
by Christmas 1982. However, construction was delayed by severe winter weather and excessive rain 
in the summer. Both weather problems caused delays in finishing the exterior of the building.

No classes were scheduled in the $1.6 million addition for the spring semester, but classes were 
to be moved into the facility as soon as it was completed and office furniture arrived. "Little 
by little we're getting all the pieces," Nagel said.

The furniture was scheduled to arrive in time for the facility to be occupied by Feb. 1. This 
date was not met though because the furniture did not arrive as scheduled.

"I'm beginning to wonder if we'll get in this semester," he said.

Except for weather problems and late supplies, construction progressed without difficulty, Doug 
Winicker, campus planner, said.

The construction did cause some difficulty for instructors and students in the building. At one point 
during construction it was very noisy inside because the front had been removed in order to attach the 
new section. "Some instructors dismissed classes because they were not able to speak over the noise," 
Nagel said. "We lived through that knowing we were getting something out of it."

Some students were bothered by the construction, while others did not even notice.

During the spring sidewalks were torn up and the heavy rains made the walk to Barnett muddy. "The 
temporary sidewalks were made of board and they sank into the mud," sophomore Scott Wilson said.

"I didn't even notice it (the construction), but I did get a couple of comments from the workmen," 
sophomore Kathy Fasching said.

Many student complaints centered around the parking problems at Barnett. "The parking was bad because 
you could not park over there," sophomore Chris Pund said.

Although the construction caused parking problems, once completed the project will provide reserved 
spaces for handicapped parking.

As part of the project steps were taken to make the entire building comply with standards for handicapped 
access. In addition to the reserved parking, an elevator and ramps were included in the renovations.

"I have toured the new building and it is quite nice and quite impressive, a good learning environment 
for the students," Donald Houldecruft, instructor of agriculture, said.

"There will be some real upgrading of the total program."

Although the division did not move into the building Feb. 1 as scheduled, major construction 
problems were not the delay. "It's just some minor things before the University accepts the 
building." Nagel said.

"It will be nice to have a bigger place for classes," Wilson said. "I will have some of my 
classes in the new portion. We will move over there when it gets done."

"I hope this can get us more room to study," Fasching said.

Winicker said the project is the most recent major renovation since the completion of work 
on Pershing Building.

Construction of the addition began just a few months before the Board of Regents voted to 
rename the Industrial Education Building in honor of the first head of the Division of 
Practical Arts. Ortho Barnett served as the head of the division from 1942-1968 and was 
both division head and campus building representative at the time construction of the 
original Industrial Education Building was requested. Barnett died in 1978 and the Board 
of Regents decided it would be fitting to name the building after him to recognize his 
contributions to the University, Nagel said.

The noise will quiet and the dust settle when construction on the renamed building is 
completed. The quiet will only last until the clatter of students echoes down the 
hallways. ECHO

Now or never

Science students call it the hardest 10 hours of their lives, real make-or-break-you classes. 
Instructors call them the two most difficult classes to learn. Both students and instructors 
know the courses as Organic Chemistry I and its sister course Organic Chemistry II.

Organic Chemistry is the study of the element carbon and its ability to bond. Almost all, if 
not every medical school in the nation requires that students pass organic chemistry and each 
school has a different standard of what is an acceptable amount. At Kirksville College of 
Osteopathic Medicine eight hours is the required amount, although certain allowances have 
permitted students to enter with five hours.

Biology, botany, zoology, and chemistry majors are all required to take varying amounts of 
organic chemistry and it doesn't take long to discover what is at stake for both the student 
and the professors that teach organic.

The students have their future careers in medicine, osteopathic medicine, dentistry, veterinary 
medicine, as well as medical technology and other health fields on the line.

The professor must act as a gatekeeper and allow only those students with the talent and determination 
to pursue their goals in the health fields.

The possibility of not passing organic chemistry is a tough pill for a student to swallow and in the 
past, course dropping and accusations of poor instruction have been common in Science Hall. Dean 
Rosebery, head of the Division of Science, discounts any such accusations and believes it is the 
nature of the courses that makes organic chemistry difficult.

"The professors spend two to three hours a day getting ready for a lecture. A student must also 
prepare two hours a day and three if they are mediocre. If a student stays with organic chemistry, 
then they will be prepared for professional graduate work no matter who the professor is," Rosebery 
said.

Sophomore Rita Davis also said the nature of the courses themselves made organic chemistry different. 
"The classes won't break you. You can only break yourself. The courses make you discipline yourself, 
and you have to work hard, there is no question about that," Davis said. However, Davis did admit that 
she had a preference as far as who taught her. "I like the way Dr.(Victor)Hoffman(assistant professor 
of chemistry) conducts his class. He presents it so it will be interesting and that makes it easier 
to handle all the material," she said. "I think all the professors have the same amount of knowledge 
but there is a difference in the way all the professors present it."

Senior Dave Van Vleirbergen also said there is a difference in teaching techniques. "I worked hard, 
put in a lot of study time and got a B in Organic Chem. I. But in Chem. II I could not handle the way 
the class was run and I dropped the class before the first test," Van Vlierbergen said.

According to Van Vlierbergen he was not the only one that dropped the class. "They (the students) 
were dropping like flies in Chem. II. When we started in the spring semester we had around 50 people. 
When I got out I guess there were only 22 to 28 people left," Van Vlierbergen said.

Kenneth Fountain, associate professor of science, said, "I understand that the course is the toughest 
in the division and I am proud that the course has significant integrity that it asks the students to 
change," Fountain said.

"It is the nature of the course that gives the students a hard time.The professors have not made it 
difficult," Dana Delaware, assistant professor of chemistry, said. He said the advantage of having 
a course like organic chemistry returns to the gatekeeping responsibility."Organic Chemistry I and 
II, as well as General Chemistry I and II have developed into good screening classes. They are 
demanding, and they are good classes to go by to see who is serious about their major," Delaware 
said.

Sophomore Leonard Webb, who must take organic chemistry next year, said, "I'm not just going after 
a grade, I want to learn the material that is going to be presented, but I will ask around and look 
at the different instructors that will be teaching. The teachers and how well they relate to the 
students is just as important as how much they know." ECHO Story by Dudley Thomas

Some people undergo hypnosis for relaxation, others for concentration, but all find 
themselves Entranced

A nearly undefinable phenomenon, hypnosis, has been used for various purposes since the middle 
of the nineteenth century. Hypnosis found its way to campus three years ago and although still 
a novelty, the practice is being used more and more.

Sal Costa, instructor of psychology, said that one rational definition for hypnosis is an altered 
state of consciousness on the same order as dreaming. Costa has been working with hypnosis for 
three years and is nationally certified and licensed. He is a member of the Association to Advance 
Ethical Hypnosis and the Hypnosis Training Center in South Orange, N.J. Due to this affiliation, 
Costa said he would not relate stories about what hypnosis can or cannot do for someone. "It's 
against our ethical policy to use testimonials," Costa said.

Hypnosis has been traditionally viewed as a mystique and has been accompanied by many misconceptions. 
The swinging watch or pendulum, used to induce a hypnotic trance, was merely a convention invented 
in early movies. The theory that once someone is under hypnosis, they can only be released by the 
hypnotist is also a fallacy.

Costa is amused with some of the opinions people have about hypnosis. The technique, in fact, gained 
popularity in the 1900s when it was instilled by relaxation and deep concentration.

Today, hypnosis is used throughout the medical field. Dentists and doctors use it for the reduction 
of pain, and some police departments use it to help witnesses of crime remember such things as 
license numbers and physical descriptions.

Costa works with people to help a variety of things ranging from insomnia to better concen-

tration. He also works with people to help them quit smoking. But there are a few people that 
he says he will not and cannot work with. People with diabetes, weak hearts, and those with a 
history of convulsions are just a few.

The hypnotic state can accidentally change the insulin balance in the diabetic. It can also cause 
a person to go into convulsions. Both cases can be extremely dangerous.

"I also don't like working with people that are skeptical," Costa said. When he does work with a 
skeptic, Costa likes to give him the posthypnotic suggestion just to prove to him that he too can 
be hypnotized.

Posthypnotic suggestions usually accompany every hypnosis session since it is a test to see how 
deep the subject is in the hypnotic state. The suggestion is usually given when the person is 
coming halfway out of the state. Costa said one example is that he tells his subject there is a 
dog or person in the room that was not there before. Usually the subject will see what Costa 
describes even though it really is not there.

Hypnosis may be put into effect in may different ways. Some people use total relaxation and some 
concentrate on a rotating spiral. Others use both methods.

Before undergoing hypnosis, the subject must be totally trusting, and, once in a hypnotic trance, 
will be able to hear everything and know exactly what is going on around him.

"When working with people, it usually takes me five minutes at maximum to put somebody out. And I 
leave them in the state for about 15 minutes, depending on how long they want to be there," Costa 
said. "One time, I left a girl under for about 10 minutes and before I came back to take her out of 
it, she got up and left. But there is a story about somebody staying under for 2 and one-half hours 
simply because the person wanted to stay under. The person can totally accept or reject the hypnosis, 
and there is nothing I can do to make them stay under. I have no control over it."

"When I'm under the hypnosis, it really relaxes me. I can hear everything around me but I choose to 
block it out, and when I come out of it, I feel like I have slept about two or three hours," senior 
Steve Vance said.

"When I get hypnotized, I feel really calm and relaxed. I'm not in a trance; it's just a real deep 
state of relaxation, and I know everything that is going on around me," junior Andy Horning said.

For whatever reason a subject wishes to undergo hypnosis and by whatever method he prefers, the 
technique is safe when performed by a responsible hypnotist. And despite the number of skeptics, 
many people swear by the hypnotic trance.

"When I'm going under the state, I feel very relaxed. And once I come out, I feel like I have just 
come out of a real good nap," sophomore Ken Deposki said. ECHO

Pass the buck

It's a question we all consider at one time or another: Where is the money going to come from? 
For most, the solution comes from careful consideration and thoughtful planning. This year, the 
University Board of Regents implemented a solution never explored on this campus--a one-time 
student surcharge.

The University budget was reduced three percent through government cutbacks; another two percent 
was to be withheld and yet another two percent deferred, Charles McClain, University president, 
said. Expenses had already been reduced "to the point where we couldn't reduce anymore. We've cut 
purchases and the acquiring of library books, reduced travel budgets and cut telephone expenditures 
since cuts were introduced," McClain said.

"There are two ways to address financial exigency: reduce expenses and increase income. The first 
three-percent cutback was met by a reduction of expenses," McClain said. "We had to get a new way 
to meet the problem, but we didn't want to increase base tuition because then it's difficult to 
lower. It seemed to us that it was only common sense to ask the students to bear a one-time burden 
to help us through this crisis. Ergo, the $40 surcharge."

"About 75 percent of the budget goes for people. To avoid dismissal of employees, it was necessary 
for us to put on a surcharge. We felt it was the least painful of anything we could do," Mary Erwin, 
president of the Board of Regents, said.

"It certainly was distasteful to pass to students, but with the governor withholding appropriations, 
there was no other choice; it was an emergency situation. In the future, we should have a better idea 
of what the appropriations will be," Marietta Jayne, Board of Regents member, said.

McClain said the surcharge brought in approximately $250,000, which restored almost two percent of the 
lost appropriations. He also said he was optimistic about the University's future financial health. "I 
think the economy is going to turn around. I feel good about increased state appropriations for next 
year."

The surcharge idea grew out of brainstorm during a meeting of all Missouri state university presidents, 
McClain said. "The principle was agreed upon, but each university approached it differently. Our Board 
of Regents was the first to take action; we led the way. All, in fact, did implement a surcharge," 
he said.

"If institutions continue to absorb cut after cut, the president would be failing to give leadership 
or to say to the students, 'Who is going to pay?' Students' fees check state revenue."

"It (the surcharge) didn't bother me at all; I thought it was a good idea because it made people 
keep their commitment. People couldn't plan on coming, then break their commitment quite so 
quickly," freshman Keith Cavender said.

Junior Jeff Panhorst said the move to the surcharge was unexpected. "I feel like the surcharge 
was an unnecesary pain, but like anything else with school, I just accepted it and went on."

"It (the surcharge) would've been a problem, except I got on work-study and can handle it now," 
freshman Delia Santa Cruz said. She said tuition had gone up at a school she previously attended; 
rising costs there were a prime factor in her decision to attend here. "The costs went up here 
also, but not as much." ECHO Story by Laurie White

Tightened and Toughened

Quality is important. Quality automobiles are comfortable, need little maintenance 
and get good gas mileage. Quality clothing fits well.

Quality education prepares students to compete well in the job market. In an effort 
to upgrade this quality, administrators and faculty are continuing to improve the 
quality of their programs to prepare students for life after college.

Darrell Krueger, dean of instruction, said the need for upgrading academic standards 
came to a head when data being collected for a fall 1981 report to the Missouri 
governor's office was not satisfying. Krueger said the move toward higher standards 
"grew out of a feeling that we were not challenging our students enough."

Krueger and others, including President Charles McClain, the Student Senate, and division 
heads and faculty committees, requested the operation of instructors in the effort to 
upgrade standards. Edwin Carpenter, head of the Division of Language and Literature, 
said the upgrading has been "a whole university climate."

"We want to be nationally competitive in all fields," Krueger said. He also said he wanted 
students to be better prepared for national tests. Elementary education majors have done 
especially well on national tests, Krueger said.

Daniel Ball, head of the Division of Education, said 76 percent of the 1982 graduates in 
elementary education scored above the 50th percentile on the National Teachers Examination.

The grade point average for graduates in elementary education rose from 2.5 to 2.75 and in 
other areas of education from 2.2 to 2.5. The minimum grade point for graduation with honor 
has been raised from 3.25 to 3.5 

The policy for withdrawal from a class has also been changed. A student may withdraw without a 
code up to six weeks after classes begin and with a code up to 10 weeks after classes begin. 
After 10 weeks, a student may not withdraw from a class. Under the previous standards, a student 
could drop a class anytime
 
(Page 211)

before the last week of classes.

"I don't believe that students spend enough time studying," Krueger said. He said he 
believes that students are not asked to study enough while in high school and the 
University is too lax in asking students to study, especially underclassmen.

"Essentially, I wanted to make sure that no student would receive a bachelor's degree 
from this University without attaining a certain intellectual level," McClain said.

The overall average GPA dropped from a high of 2.90 for the fall 1977 semester to a 
2.81 for the fall 1982 semester. Also in the fall 1975 semester, 37 percent of the 
grades given were A's, but only 28 percent were A's during the fall 1982 semester. 
However, Krueger said, the average class rank of incoming freshmen continues to rise 
and is above that of most other universities in Missouri.

Terry Taylor, director of admissions, said the average class rank for incoming freshmen 
for the fall 1982 semester was in the upper one-fourth of the class, and the average test 
score was at the 65th-70th percentile. Taylor said the number of applications for admission 
continues to increase each year, despite more stringent admissions requirements.

In 1978, a high school senior could gain admission by ranking in the upper 2/3 of his class 
for in-state students of the upper 50 percent of his class for out-of-state students, scoring 
above the 33rd percentile for in-state students and 40th percentile for out-of-state students 
on the SAT, ACT, or SCAT national tests, or having a 2.2 or above cumulative high school grade 
point average. In 1980, GPA as a means of admission was dropped. Both acceptable class rank and 
test score were required for admission beginning 1981.

Carpenter said he agrees totally with the efforts to upgrade the quality of education. "We are 
determined to eliminate the easy routes through the major," he said. The requirements for 
satisfactory work in World Literature I and II and Composition I and II have been increased. 
All Composition I students must pass an English proficiency examination by writing a minimally 
competent essay in a timed period. The Division of Language and Literature is also working with 
the divisions of Health, Physical Education and Recreation, Education and Business to upgrade 
the writing skills of students in those majors.

The move toward higher quality education has been going on in the Division of Language and Literature 
for five years, Carpenter said. "Work that was a B or an A four years ago perhaps now is a C," he said.

Carpenter said he plans to continue upgrading the program. "The quality will not be just for today, 
but for tomorrow."

Robert Dager, head of the Division of Business, said emphasis has been placed on faculty development. 
He said that in order to have a stronger program, the faculty must work harder.

Beginning in the fall 1984, calculus will be required for business administration majors.

Also, writing skills are being emphasized for all majors in the division.

The concept of value-added education is an integral part of the effort to upgrade academic 
standards. "The basic premise is that we ought to spend more time talking about learning and 
achievement rather than how many books there are in the library and how many Ph.D. s we have 
on staff," McClain said.

Junior Lea Wilhelm said some of her classes have had evidence of a move toward higher standards 
while others have not. She said in one of her classes the instructor told the students there 
would be no final test, but because of the move toward higher standards, he announced two weeks 
before the end of the semester that a final would be given.

Sophomore Lee Viorel said he has seen a considerable change in the structure of his classes since 
he was a freshman. The classes are more subjective, stress fundamentals and have more homework 
involved, he said.

Viorel said he was pleased with the move toward higher academic standards. "It's going to make the 
difference in the long run."

Senior Kay Rehfuss said she felt that the quality of education has become increasingly better during 
the past three years. She said her instructors have not given a greater amount of work, but have 
expected her to know more about what she was studying.

Freshman Mary Ann McMasters said, "I've studied a lot more in college than I ever did in high school." 
She said her classes require more reading than her high school classes did.

McMasters said she thought the value-added concept was a good idea, but that too many changes were being 
pushed on students at once.

Krueger said his personal goals are to see students graduate who are of bachelor's degree quality--able 
to read, write, think, analyze, speak well and be nationally competitive--and see students show academic 
growth between their sophomore and senior years through improvement between the sophomore and senior 
examination scores.

McClain said his long-range goal for the program is to "increase the recognition that the University 
deserves from the public for the sake of alumni, current students and future students." ECHO

Standard sentence

Higher academic standards, combined with a change in suspension and probation 
policy, increased the number of students suspended or put on probation in the 
fall of 1982, compared to the fall of 1981.

In the fall of 1981, 464 students were put on probation. The fall of 1982 
saw approximately 750 students on probation. The fall of 1981 had 119 
students suspended while approximately 189 were suspended in the fall of 
1982, Tamina Toray-Nelson, counselor in testing services said.

The higher number of students suspended or placed on probation is at least 
partially a result of a change in the policy regarding suspensions and 
probations.

The plan, initiated by Darrell Krueger, dean of instruction, tries to find 
students with academic problems, sooner.

"Before, we could not significantly catch them (the students) so they got in so 
deep they couldn't pick themselves back up," Krueger said.

Under the old policy, a student could have a grade point average below 2.0 for 
several semesters before being placed on probation. The new policy eliminates 
that possibility.

Now, "we can warn the students sooner," Krueger said. "The overall thrust is to 
help the student graduate. A student can't graduate with honor points below 2.0."

An important area of the policy is the tabulation of deficiency points. A student 
accumulates deficiency points for every D and F received. If a student is between 
11 and 18 deficiency points short of 2.0 he is suspended for one semester (unless 
he is a freshman). If a student is between 18 and 26 deficiency points short of 
2.0 he is suspended for one academic year. If a student is more than 26 deficiency 
points short of 2.0 he is suspended indefinitely, Toray-Nelson said.

Once a student is suspended he can appeal it to an academic standards committee of 
faculty members and deans, Toray-Nelson said.

The student writes a letter and the committee reviews it. "Basically, the decision 
remains the same unless there are extenuating circumstances," Toray-Nelson said. 
Extenuating circumstances involve the student being able to make up deficiency points 
by repeating classes.

"We try to do it (review the student) by a case by case situation and evaluate each 
student," Krueger said.

The cause for the inflated number of probations and suspensions is not entirely due 
to the new policy "I can explain it with three words: higher academic standards," 
Terry Smith, dean of students, said.

The higher academic standards came about as an evaluation of the grades given out at 
the University.

"It's a good idea (higher academic standards) because you have to work harder," freshman 
Stan Dippel said, "but some teachers come in and say only four or five people will get an 
A; that's wrong."

"If you did the same amount of work this semester as you did last year, you wouldn't get 
the same grade," Smith said. "College is quantumly one or two terms higher than grades 9 
through 12," he said. "It shouldn't be easy. You should have profound expectations. 
Everybody profits; it makes the degree more valuable."

"If it's up to the student to do the work, and he knows what he has to do, like on a straight 
percentage scale, it's a good policy," freshman Jeff Wilson said.

Not all students agree it is a good policy that the same amount of work does not result in the 
same grade each semester.

"It's bad, it shouldn't be that way," sophomore Jeff Wood said.

"The administration has come down too hard too quick. The students aren't going to be prepared for 
it and they are going to be adversely affected. If they would take it slower it would be better," 
sophomore Tony Lambright said. ECHO

The straight and narrow

Adding value to the lives and education of 7,000 students means a lot of work for the three 
deans of the University.

Darrel Krueger, dean of instruction, and Lydia Inman, dean of graduate studies, have the 
responsibility of upgrading the academic standards for the University. Terry Smith, dean 
of students, is responsible for student growth outside the classroom.

Krueger coordinates the value-added program. He works with Inman, Smith and the division 
heads to discover what level students are at and what still needs to be done.

To discover the current level of the students, Krueger compares scores from standardized 
tests such as American College Testing and the Graduate Record Examination. The scores are 
compared with a student's previous scores to discover how the individual student is 
progressing. The overall scores are compared with the national norms to discover how the 
University is doing as an institution.

Krueger also compares the scores from a class of graduating seniors with the previous year's 
class. "If we can improve one class over another, that's the value we've added," he said.

After the test results are in, Krueger works with the division heads to discuss where the 
standards should be set and how the test scores can be improved. The division heads are 
responsible for actually setting the standards for their programs and developing minimum 
competency requirements.

Krueger said that so far, no growth has been seen in test scores or student attitudes to 
the University.

"The scores have been stable since we started looking at them," he said. "This year we've 
paid more attention to the fact that there has been no growth up to now."

Inman said not enough time has passed to measure the value added to graduate students' 
educations very well.

"After they are here four years as undergraduates, you have to wait two to three years for 
most of them to come back for graduate school," Inman said. She said some students start 
graduate work the summer after they graduate but then leave when jobs start in the fall.

"Also, a lot of our graduate students are teachers. They come to school in the summer but 
have to go back in the fall," Inman said. "I think it will take another three to five years 
to have enough data to look at the change."

Graduate students have not been tested as the undergraduates have been. Inman said much of 
the graduate program depends on a strong undergraduate program. Most of the information used 
is gathered by the various divisions.

Inman said they do keep track of each graduate student's progress to know what level the 
person is at in the graduate program.

Smith said the involvement of Student Services with the value-added program is to better 
prepare students for the classroom and for life

IN HIS OFFICE, Tom Churchwell, assistant to the Dean of Instruction, looks through the 
piles of paperwork on the desk. Churchwell has been an employee of the University for 
13 years.

after college. Student Services include non-instructional offices such as Residence Life, 
the Career Planning and Placements Center and Student Activities.

Information about student's attitudes toward the University is obtained through questionnaires 
such as the Institutional Student Survey and the Graduating Student Questionnaire. The surveys 
ask about the effects college has had on the student and about their opinions of various 
University offices.

Smith said Student Services is not trying to add to the options for a student's social life. 
Value is being added through educational channels. More workshops and seminars on skills such 
as resume writing and job seeking are being added.

"One of the biggest challenges is filling in unstructured time with growth choices," Smith said. 
"Few students have academic difficulty because they are too busy. Most of the ones who do have 
difficulty have too much time on their hands that is unstructured, free time." 

Some Student Services functions do overlap with the instructional part of the value-added 
program. "The Testing Office is actually a Student Services office," Smith said, "but the 
work they do is vital to instruction."

All three deans have improving the University in mind as the goal for the value-added 
program, but each dean's goal is a little different. Krueger would like to see all 
divisions score above the 50th percentile nationally on the standardized tests, and 
no divisions fall below the 30th percentile.

Inman wants to see more emphasis placed on adding value to graduate education. She 
said the advantage to having professors teach both graduate and undergraduate levels 
is that professors know what material is covered in undergraduate classes. They can 
weed that material out and teach the graduate students new topics. Inman also wants 
to see graduate standards raised.

"I hope professors would automatically raise expectations in graduate classes as they 
do in undergraduate classes," she said.

Smith would like the program to result in funding based on the value the University 
adds during a year. He would also like faculty to better understand how Student 
Services can help them. Smith is working on an idea to help professors who cannot 
get to a class.

"A Student Services person would substitute for the professor," he said. "We couldn't 
teach the class, but we could talk about Student Services related topics. They are 
already trying this somewhere else."

The program needs even more effort," Krueger said. "Institutions are slow to change."

A quantity of quality

While economic problems, higher fees, a $40 surcharge and tougher academic standards have 
placed many students in a difficult position, these factors have not affected enrollment 
figures for the 1982-83 school year.

In the spring of 1983, 526 students who attended the University during the fall of 1982 did 
not return, but the headcount showed that enrollment for the spring semester was up 3.3 
percent from the spring of 1982. At the count during the fourth week of the fall 1982 
semester, a total of 6,960 students were enrolled, up 4.7 percent from Fall '81. In spring 
of 1983 the total headcount was 6,434 compared to the,spring of 1982 total of 6,228.

On the average, enrollment increases in the fall and drops in the spring. "This is a normal, 
natural phenomena," Terry Taylor, director of admissions said. "We usually have more students 
in the fall, and this fall there was a larger number of students graduating, plus, suspensions 
can account for 80 to 100 more students leaving than what's normal." A total of 192 students 
were suspended at the end of the fall semester.

Other factors contributing to the loss of students included students transfering or just 
deciding that college just wasn't for them, Lee Myers, said. "I wouldn't contribute it to 
class scheduling. There were 5,000 add/drops this semester. I feel confident that most 
students got the classes they wanted."

In the fall, the University had the largest freshman class ever with 2,475. In the spring 
there were only 1,881. "People who go their freshman year and receive less than 30 hours 
will begin the fall semster as a left-over freshman. We have students who take 5 years to 
graduate and it usually begins in their freshman year," Taylor said.

"Overall, I feel good about the totals," Taylor said. "I wouldn't think that we'd have over 
6,000 students during the spring. With this strong showing I'm sure we'll open up next fall 
with 7,000 students and we'll try to keep the total there. If we don't, we'll have to build 
more residence halls and with the national drop in college enrollments, we don't want to do 
that. However, we are one of the only schools in the state whose spring enrollment was up."

In order to keep the enrollment constant, the University plans to admit 750 freshmen and 500 
transfer students each year. By constantly upgrading the standards for admission of freshmen, 
there will be a greater chance of them graduating, Taylor said. "We've been doing this for 
some years now and it has been working," Taylor said.

Intramurals

(Page 221)

Intramurals involves hundreds of students, and students are What makes it play

Selected as the number one student service for 1981-1982 by students taking a University 
survey, intramurals have enjoyed ever-increasing popularity on campus. The program which 
involves more students than any other of the University requires careful planning and 
organization. Most students do not realize who is behind the program or where it all 
begins.

Intramurals, a department within the Division of Health, Physical Education and Recreation, 
is headed by Jack Bowen, assistant professor of physical education. Bowen used to set up and 
supervise all the activities, but for the last three years, he has shifted the majority of 
the responsibilites to graduate assistants.

"I do more work in keeping everyone organized," Bowen said. Bowen gives the graduate assistants 
who wish to work with the intramural program a list of activities and they decide who wants to 
organize each activity.

Bowen said the "trouble sports," those activities which have proved popular and highly 
competitive in the past, are assigned to the more experienced graduates. These sports 
are usually run by two assistants rather than one.

The student in charge of an activity must take several steps to set it up. Notice of the activity 
should be put in the "Northeast Today" and the "Index" and flyers must be posted around campus. 
"It usually takes three or four days to work it up," Greg Hagensick, graduate assistant, said. 
"The flyers should be up three or four weeks before the activity."

After notices have been posted, the student in charge of an activity must schedule necessary help 
for the activity. The officials, timers, scorekeepers and judges are usually found in classes within 
the HPER division. Students taking PE 316 Officiating Basketball, for example, are required to score 
five games, keep time at two games and officiate at least 10 hours.

The intramural budget allots money to pay officials. Bowen said that for basketball games, they try 
to schedule two officials from class with one paid official. To become a paid official, a student 
must attend a clinic for the particular sport they wish to officiate and pass not only a written 
test but an application test as well.

Bowen said this policy works well since it gives the students field experience and saves the 
intramural department from having to hire another paid official for each game. With undergraduates 
in the officiating roles, the graduate assistant is left to oversee the activity.

"I make arrangements for courts and fields and order all equipment and supplies," Bowen said.

Besides the four graduate assistants who get first choice of events, an intern in the intramural 
department and students in PE 330 Organization and Administration of Intramurals take responsibility 
for some programs. The activities they organize are under the supervision of either Bowen or one of 
the graduate assistants.

Bowen said the process works fairly well but that there have been problems with students not 
shouldering all the responsibilities of setting up activities. He said the students working for 
the intramural program as well as the quality of the students participating in the activities 
guarantee the success of intramurals. "Your program is as good as your personnel," Bowen said.

their ground under the coaching of junior Joe Blessing.
 
(Page 222)

What makes it play

program is protecting and backing the officials. He takes a strong stand against verbal 
or physical abuse.

"We try to protect the officials. We expect the students to observe the rules of the 
institution," Bowen said. To make rules concerning sportsmanship and abuse clear, the 
intramural department distributed flyers this year among intramural participants. The 
handout said "any physical and/or verbal threats against an official or staff member 
will result in permanent banishment from the Intramural Recreational Sports Program."

Bowen said there are relatively few cases of bad conduct considering the number of people 
who participate in the program. There was only one case this year where two participants 
were kicked out of intramurals because of unsportsmanlike conduct. Since the activities 
are primarily supervised by one of the graduate assistants, any misconduct or abuse is 
reported to them. It was the supervisor's decision to dismiss the participants.

The graduate assistants do not mind this responsibility because they feel well-backed by 
Bowen.

"Basically, we are an extension of Jack and anything we decide, Jack will back us," 
Hagensick said.

Despite a few problems, most of the graduate students said their assistantship with the 
intramural program was not only a learning experience but an enjoyable one.

"I enjoy it," said graduate assistant Dara Callahan, who also coaches the Varsity women's 
tennis team. Callahan said she has always been more interested in coaching but she would 
get involved in intramural administration if the opportunity arose.

The graduate assistants also must put up with a few disappointments. Despite hours of careful 
planning, some activities just do not go over well. The water basketball tournament was canceled 
in the fall because teams would not show up to play. Callahan, who organized the activity, said 
that it was disappointing to have no one show up after working on the preliminary arrangements.

"The worst thing is scheduling people to work and then having to just sit there and wait. They're 
putting in their time and that makes me feel bad," Callahan said.

Those who run the intramural program are satisfied with its success. Bowen said he would like to 
make the activities less competitive, primarily by doing away with the All-Sports Trophy. He would 
also like the activities to be geared more toward levels of ability.

As it is presently run, the intramural program involves a major part of the students at the 
University. But those who run the program do not want to see it get stuck in a rut, and so, 
it changes with the student demand as well as with the changes in behind the scenes personnel. ECHO

Finishing fourth in NCAA Division II the softball team completed an Instant replay

The skeptics are noticeably absent who felt the Bulldog softball team's fourth place 
finish at the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women 1981 National Tournament 
might have been a fluke. Two consecutive fourth place finishes on the national level have 
marked the Bulldogs as a Divison II softball power, finally silencing the tournament crowds 
that referred to them as "some team from Missouri." "We finished the season ranked second 
nationally in defense," Coach Mary Jo Murray, assistant professor of physical education, 
said, "and seventh in pitching and those were the two areas that really carried us this 
year." Pitcher Cindy loerger, junior, compiled a 14-9 record while posting a 0.97 ERA in 
158 innings. Junior Joan Allison logged a team-low ERA of 0.49 in 99 innings to finish the 
season with a 7-6 mark. The duo helped carry the Bulldogs through a season in which 15 games 
were decided by one run.

The Bulldog offense charted a team batting average of .245, down from their 1981 mark of 
.271. Only four Bulldog batters hit above .280, junior Joni Williams (.326), sophomore 
Frankie DeMouth (.305), sophomore Renee Harper (.295) and senior Tracy Rowan (.283). Yet 
while their bats rattled out only a .245 mark, the Bulldog gloves held their opponents to 
a .225 average and a 0.83 earned-runs per game.

The softball team switched their affiliation from the AIAW to the National Collegiate Athletic 
Association. Last year the team had a choice between the two associations and chose the NCAA.

As part of the NCAA, in order to be eligible for the national tournament, the softball team had 
to be ranked in the top 10. They stayed on the elite list throughout the season, but after losing 
8 of 11 games with just one tournament left during the regular season the Bulldog hopes of 
qualifying for post-season play seemed dim. Murray said, "We had some problems defensively and 
it was just a total team slump."

The 1982 squad finally peaked at the University of Creighton Tournament during which they extended 
Big Eight champ University of Nebraska-Lincoln to 22 innings before losing 2-1, then came back and 
defeated them 5-2. They also lost an 11 inning, 1-0 contest to Creighton. Both Nebraska-Lincoln and 
Creighton finished in the final eight of the NCAA Division I Championships.

An NCAA committee ranks Division II teams every two weeks. The University was ranked highly before 
the slump and the final rankings did not come out until the Creighton Tournament.

Playing well in the clutch kept the Bulldogs ranked fourth nationally and gave them the 
top seat in their regional. "We played well with our backs to the wall and beat some 
Division I schools at Creighton," junior second baseman Sandy McKinney said. "We impressed 
some people and moved way up in the rankings." 

Although the Dogs were ranked fourth going into the nationals, Murray said she felt the title was 
up for grabs. "I really felt that going into the tournament any one of the final four teams could 
win it. We lost a tough decision to Sam Houston State, 1-0, and got a bad break in our loss to 
Sacred Heart."

Harper, catcher, said she thought hitting was the main problem at nationals, but considering they 
were a young team they did well.

After two consecutive trips to the nation's final four, the Bulldogs are looking to 1983 as the year 
to win it all. Although the Bulldogs are losing what might have been one of the best outfields in 
Division II in seniors Tracy Rowan, Sheryl Arnold and Denette Stottlemyre, Ioerger's pitching, and 
All-American first baseman DeMouth, are a solid nucleus returning for 1983.

As for the upcoming year, Murray said, "We're looking forward to having a good year. We'll try to 
improve offensively, but the defense is still good. The girls are hoping to get back into the final 
four, especially since it's in California." NCAA pays expenses for the women to attend the tournament.

As for the strong points of the 1983 team Harper said, "We've got three good pitchers and good defense. 
To go back to nationals, it'll be harder. There'll be a lot more teams to face due to the other teams 
switching from AIAW to NCAA."

This year the MIAA champion is automatically chosen for regionals and then must win regionals before 
the national playoffs.

"We'll be an experienced, senior dominated team," Murray said. "Hopefully, three will be a charm." ECHO

Behind the

Out of the spotlight

Teamwork is the name of the game, and in sports, teamwork goes beyond the players. They may not 
be in the limelight, but without managers the sports program would be at a standstill.

"We do all the little jobs that the coaches don't have time to do," senior Deanne Predmore said. 
This is Predmore's second year as manager for the Bulldogs' football team. She and her roommate, 
senior Tammy Schuldt volunteered for the job.

"I figured it would be a good way to meet people," Schuldt said. Neither Predmore nor Schuldt had 
previous experience as managers, but they had always enjoyed watching football. Now they say they 
have a greater understanding and appreciation for the game.

During the season, they spend a lot of time as locker room volunteers gathering laundry, assigning 
uniforms to players' lockers and checking equipment. Sam Nugent, head trainer for the University, 
said the managers have a big responsibility handling thousands of dollars' worth of equipment. 
During a game, these managers may be called upon to fix equipment, besides their other duties of 
filling water bottles and handing out towels.

Is the situation a bit awkward for the women managers to be around a locker room full of men?

"At first they (the players) were shy," Predmore said. However, Predmore and Schuldt were, too. 
They both laugh as they tell of embarrassing moments such as issuing out athletic supporters to 
the players. With one year under their belts, the women said the players treat them like they are 
"one of the guys."

"You get used to having them around," junior Dennis Doss said, "and it's better than looking at 
guys."

Assistant Football Coach John Smith, temporary instructor of physical education, said that as 
managers, "women seem to be a little more particular."

Predmore and Schuldt agreed that the travel to other schools is a definite plus to being managers. 
A disadvantage is the lack of pay, but the two women said they feel good about what they're doing.

"Being involved in a sport gets you involved in the school. You get a sense of school spirit; you 
start caring about it," Predmore said. ECHO Story by Sally Troutman

Wrapping it up

Tape, salve and skilled hands are the tools of their trade. Whether the players bite the dust 
or clench the conference title, it's the trainers that "wrap" it up.

Sam Nugent is head trainer for the University and instructor of physical education. What does 
being a trainer consist of?

"Taping up ankles and wrists mostly," junior Carol Veatch, a football trainer, said.

Trainers must be available at practices and games to treat players' injuries. Many students that 
become trainers are taken from Nugent's athletic injuries class, while others volunteer for the 
experience it provides or personal interest in the field.

Although the job is primarily on a volunteer basis, students can receive some credit or workstudy 
compensation for the work. Veatch is receiving credit for her preteaching as a trainer. Junior 
Theresa Myers is also a football trainer. She was able to become a trainer for her workstudy job. 
"I get paid for 10 hours but work about 30 (a week)," Myers said.

Nugent tries to assign trainers for every sport that needs one. Football has the greatest need for 
trainers as compared to other sports, so Nugent is especially busy during football season.

"They have to have a trainer," Nugent said. "I try to help every sport, but I can't be at all 
practices for all sports."

Assistant Football Coach John Smith, temporary instructor of physical education, said trainers 
play an important part in building up the players' attitudes. "The trainer knows when the kids 
are hurting," Smith said. "They (the trainers) have a good input in the team." ECHO

A matter of experience

"The team that plays together, stays together," someone said, altering an old cliche. This version 
nearly hit the mark when it came to the 1982 Bulldog baseball team.

"We finally matured enough to play together," sophomore Mike Christner said. After compiling records 
of 5-21 in 1980 and 11-20 in 1981, the Bulldogs seemed to get it together in 1982 ending the season 
with a 17-12 win-loss record. The total tied the University's record for the most wins in a single 
season, set in 1971.

The Dogs batted .290 and hit 11 home runs. Coach Sam Nugent, instructor of physical education, 
attributed the team's success primarily to the pitching and offense. However, he said "Our defense 
was also greatly improved." The Dogs ended their season with a .959 fielding percentage.

Sophomore Vernon Dobelmann led the pitching squad with a 5-0 record and a 3.21 ERA, followed by 
junior Steve Miller who posted a 3-4 record. The entire pitching staff, consisting of freshmen 
John Salzeider, Neal Dixon, Richard Grobelny, Mike Jennings, Denny McHenry, Lance Hull; sophomores 
Steve Heston and Dobelmann; and juniors Todd Burns, Tim Yochum, and Miller, compiled a 4.08 ERA.

Despite the Dogs' improvement in their overall performance, they wound up behind Northwest Missouri 
State University and Central Missouri State University in the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic 
Association with a 3-5 conference mark.

Junior catcher-first baseman Jim Gazzolo said the team is young and the University's baseball program 
is constantly improving. Gazzolo led the Dogs in hitting with a .431 batting average, including 28 hits 
and 13 runs. Designated hitter freshman Steve Riley followed with a .368 average. The switch hitting 
Riley tallied 32 hits and 25 runs. Nugent said the Dogs participated in a weight program during the 
off-season which probably helped the 1982 squad. "Most of the guys stayed in shape outside the season."

Riley said "Last season was a good one and we picked up more experience with every game."

Miller also said he felt experience was one of the keys to the Dogs' improvement. Miller, who was a 
freshman on the team during their disastrous 5-21 season, said "We pretty much had first year players 
my freshman year. We've had the same team with the same players." Miller also said the team was glad 
to get Nugent back as their coach after his one-year leave of absence, and felt his coaching urged 
them back onto the winning track.

Christner attributed the team's rally partially to "team togetherness and willingness to work hard." 
And despite the fact that the majority of the team consisted of Bulldog veterans, Christner said "The 
newer guys had more of a winning spirit," and it was infectuous to the older players. He, too, used 
the word "experience" in relationship to their improvement. "We were young and we have the same guys 
now and are experienced."

So, the Bulldogs look forward to the 1983 season with even more experience under their belts. The 1983 
squad will lose only two of last year's starters, left fielder Rick Cox and first baseman Butch Zbinden. 
Nugent said he feels the seniors will be successfully replaced by the young reserves, and that the 
experienced team will go far. ECHO Story by Michelle Yost

In the right gear

Performing well with the key components of determination and skill, the 1982 women's cross 
country team's season was successful.

Determination and skill were prevalent when the Bulldog team took second place at the Missouri 
Intercollegiate Athletic Association Conference meet.

Prior to the conference meet, Head Coach John Cochrane thought Southeast Missouri State University 
would place first and Central Missouri State University, second.

"Every meet we were in we did what we should have done except in the conference meet," he said. 
There was a great deal of motivation and the team did exceptionally well.

Northeast did run well and defeated CMSU with a total of 55 points, behind SEMO who racked up 35 
points.

"I was happy with our performance in the conference meet. Overall, it was our best (meet) all 
season. I would've liked to have qualified somebody for (NCAA Division II) nationals, but the 
(South Central) Regional was a great deal tougher this time."

To participate in nationals, an individual must be on the first place regional team or be one of 
the next three finishers who are not on the first place team.

Although no one qualified for nationals, Cochrane believes the team progressed well throughout 
the year.

The seven-member team took second place at the Northwest Missouri Invitational; Western Illinois 
Invitational in Macomb, University of Missouri-Rolla Invitational, and the MIAA Conference meet.

Third place laurels were awarded to the Dogs at the University of Iowa Invitational in Iowa City, 
and the Central College Invitational in Pella, and a fifth place at the South Central Regional meet.

"We weren't beaten by anybody who shouldn't have beaten us. We beat the teams we should have beaten," 
Cochrane said.

The fact that the 1982 team had three returning letterwinners also contributed to the success of 
the season. Cochrane said junior Cindy Springman, senior Vicki Kijewski and sophomore Kathleen 
Freeland made the team work. "They had an idea of what we were doing and gave more stability to 
the team (which had four freshmen)."

Viewing previous performances of the women's cross country teams, Cochrane said, "We showed more 
overall improvement than we have in past years."ECHO

A few bad breaks

"Before the season began I thought we'd be really good. On paper we were one of the top teams 
in the conference and region," men's cross country Coach Ed Schneider said. But for the Dogs, 
the season wasn't run on paper.

"We had some key losses before the season ever began," junior Tommy Hill said. "Bryan Trickey 
and Todd Arnold (senior) both decided not to run this fall and it really hurt our depth." Arnold 
was fourth in the conference last year and Trickey was ninth.

"We had three of the top 10 finishers in the conference returning to this year's team, or so I 
thought," Schneider said. As it would end up, only one out of last year's top seven runners would 
return, that being Hill.

The season began on the right foot, however, as they dominated the Southern Illinois University-
Edwardsville Invitational. The Dogs totaled 22 points, including the top three places. Hill was 
first, sophomore Tom Owens was second and sophomore Marty Sprague was third. Owens was sick for 
much of the season and Sprague had to leave the team after just a few weeks. Schneider said, "We 
were a team with a new look. So many of the guys were freshmen or underclassmen. For them to run 
so well in the first meet of the season was really a credit to their training."

The next test of the Bulldogs' new look came at the University of Missouri-Columbia Invitational, 
a race they hadn't participated in in four years. "There weren't any team scores kept but Hill 
finished second in the race. I was happy to see the team run like they did so early in the season."

"We were such a young team. When we got into some of the big meets some of the young guys were 
somewhat overwhelmed. I ended up running with a different attitude knowing the team wasn't quite 
as solid as it might have been," Hill said.

So the Dogs went into each of the meets with an eager but young and inexperienced team. "It was 
really an eye-opener for us freshmen," freshman Dana Schaudt said. "The level of training and the 
meets is so much higher here that we probably weren't prepared early enough."

Something they couldn't prepare for was the injuries which also created problems. Owens, who was 
running with Hill for the top spot on the team, contracted mononucleosis midway through the season 
and wasn't back until the conference meet. Hill, the top runner all season, caught the flu right 
before the conference meet and didn't run up to his potential. Freshman Tim Brown who finished 
seventh in the first meet suffered a stress fracture which sidelined him for the season.

"We just didn't all have it together in any one race. It seemed someone was always hurting or 
something and we really couldn't put a good race together," Hill said. "I think running is about 
90 percent physical and we just didn't have the physical aspect consistently."

"Even though we may not have finished as high in every race as we wanted, there was still a 
highlight or two," said Schneider. "Hill set a new school record for 10,000 meters when he ran 
a 30:51 in the Southwest Missouri State Distance Classic. With Hill, Owens and the other runners 
all returning next year, plus whoever we add in the off-season, we should be more experienced and 
have greater depth."

"I think we'll be a lot better because all the younger guys have gotten experience. Supposedly 
Trickey and Arnold are going to be back, too. But you have to look at it from the standpoint that 
whoever comes back, comes back and whoever doesn't, doesn't," Hill said.

Schaudt is even willing to go out on a limb when he talks about next year. "If we get everyone to 
come back, plus Trickey and Arnold, we could be one of the toughest teams in the nation," he said.

Schneider holds a much more conservative view, but still sounds very optimistic. "Even without our 
top runners running at full potential and some of the guys not on the team we weren't that far behind 
the top three teams in the conference meet. All three of those were rated in the top 15 in NCAA 
Division II. So I think we'll surprise some people." If everyone shows up in the fall and if injuries 
stay away, he may be right. ECHO

Numbered achievements

The numbers themselves told the story: 27, four, nine, two and four. For the football 
Bulldogs, 27 represented the number of school records broken, four was the number tied, 
nine was the number of victories, two was the number of losses and four was the highest 
ranking the Dogs received during the season.

It was some kind of season for the Bulldogs, one that some expected, yet one that surprised 
many. On the side of those that expected the Dogs' success were the other coaches of the 
Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association. The team was the almost unanimous choice to 
repeat as conference champions and they didn't disappoint anyone. The Bulldogs rolled through 
the conference schedule with a perfect 5-0 record.

But before the conference could begin the Dogs faced a tough four game non-conference schedule. 
Going into the season opener, Head Coach Bruce Craddock, temporary instructor of physical 
education, wasn't totally sure of how the team would fare. "The conference is always tough and 
any team could beat another. Our non-conference schedule was extremely tough this year with two 
games on the road against two NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) Division I-AA 
schools. I felt we had the potential to be one of the better Northeast teams but only time 
would tell."

Craddock's confidence was due in part to the large number of returning lettermen. The team returned 
35 lettermen, including 10 first team all-conference players from the 1981 squad.

Craddock called the season opener one of the most crucial games of the season. "Along with other 
team goals, like repeating as conference champs, the team set one of their highest goals as beating 
the University of Nebraska-Omaha." It was the first of many goals the team would reach during the 
season. Final Score: NMSU 33, UNO 14.

The non-conference schedule continued the following week as the Bulldogs headed to Eastern Illinois 
to battle the Panthers, a perennial Division I-AA power. "On paper, Eastern was the best team we 
faced all season," Craddock said. "It was a game we let slip away and I know none of us will 
forget it."

The Dogs had built a 17-0 lead at halftime only to see it slip away. "We knew we had them but we made 
some mistakes and they capitalized on them," tight end Dave Forsythe, senior, said. "That game molded 
us together. I think we all knew after that it was going to be tough to beat us." Final Score: Eastern 
Ill. 18, NMSU 17.

What happened in the next eight games ignited spirit in the University and community. The Bulldogs were 
on a roll, winning all eight remaining regular season games. The first victim to fall was Wartburg 
College.

"The schedule worked in our favor because Wartburg wasn't that tough and it gave us a chance to recover 
from the Eastern game. It was really physical and a lot of guys needed some time to recover," Forsythe 
said. Wartburg was just what the doctor ordered for the Dogs. Final Score: NMSU 38, Wartburg 0.

Another team goal was to be ranked in the top 10 in NCAA Division II national poll. The Bulldogs 
received the news prior to their next game that they were ranked ninth. "The Western Illinois game 
wasn't pretty. We did the things we had to to win," Craddock said. "They were another Division I-AA 
team and we felt good beating them, especially at their place." Final Score: NMSU 27, Western Ill. 10.

The first of two open dates was next for the team. After that, Homecoming. "Homecoming with all its 
activities is like getting ready for a wedding," Craddock said. "But if you lose the game it's like 
the bride not showing up." The bride showed up a little late as the Bulldogs got off to a slow start, 
but she did show up with style. Final Score: NMSU 42, SEMO 14.

"Even though we had three other conference games to play, we considered the Central game as the title 
game," quarterback Tom Hayes, junior, said. The Dogs traveled to Warrensburg for CMSU's Homecoming and 
a fierce see-saw struggle. "When we were down by a touchdown late in the fourth quarter we all knew we 
could do it. And we did," he said. That final drive included four passes from Hayes to junior flanker 
Rich Otte, an honorable mention All-American last year, including the winning touchdown pass. Final 
Score: NMSU 23, CMSU 20.

The Bulldog express rolled into high gear the next week as Northwest Missouri State University came 
into town for the annual Parents Day game. Northwest scored first to take a 7-0 lead in the first 
quarter but this would be their only lead in the whitewash. Final Score: NMSU 63, Northwest 13.

The team received some of the best news of the season during the week after the Northwest game. They 
were ranked fourth in the country.

"Being ranked fourth was quite an honor. I knew we were good but receiving that much credit said 
a lot for the coaches and players. They worked so hard all summer and before the season began that 
it made it all worthwhile," Craddock said.

Also midway through the winning streak, talk began circulating about a possible playoff bid. "The 
playoff stuff was great at first but we were worried about the guys thinking too much about that 
and not concentrating on the regular games,''Craddock said.

As if the 63 points scored in the Northwest game weren't enough, the Dogs' next game was against 
the hapless Lincoln Blue Tigers. All week long the coaches and players talked of concern that 
Lincoln would prove to be a tougher opponent than expected. But their concern was unfounded at 
game time as the Bulldogs played what Craddock called "a nearly perfect game." It was the highest 
point total since 1927. Final Score: NMSU 70, Lincoln 0.

With that victory the Bulldogs clinched at least a tie for the conference title. If they could beat 
the University of Missouri-Rolla the next week, it would be their second consecutive conference 
championship. Craddock's team had memories of last year's game with the Miners, one that the Dogs 
let slip away 17-16. "We weren't going to let that happen again," Craddock said. In the coldest game 
of the year the Bulldogs scored 28 first half points. It was all they needed. Final Score: NMSU 28, 
Rolla 7.

So once again the Dogs celebrated a conference championship, the 24th time they've had that honor. 
But would they forget they had one regular season game left? "We tried hard not to lose perspective," 
Craddock said. "We're happy about the title but we knew we had to beat Mankato State."

On the final Saturday of regular season football, the Mavericks seemed destined to spoil the Bulldogs' 
finale. They jumped to a 14-6 lead early in the second quarter. It was short-lived. The Bulldogs 
finally got on the right track with a barrage of second half points. Final Score: NMSU 59, Mankato 14.

And now the waiting began. The NCAA committe had already decided three of the four first round home 
games. They would make the decision concerning the Dogs a day after the Mankato game. "We weren't 
sure what the committee was going to decide, but we thought there was a strong possibility of the 
game being played here," Craddock said. Those first three home games were the top three teams in 
the rankings. "We thought it'd be logical to pick the fourth ranked team for the last home game," 
he said.

The NCAA works in mysterious ways. On Sunday the call came, the Bulldogs had made the playoffs. 
One problem, the game was to be played at Jacksonville State University in Jacksonville, Alabama. 
"I think we all pretty much thought the game would be played here," tackle Paul Eckhoff, junior, 
said. "But that wasn't a big problem because we all looked forward to traveling. Not many of the 
guys had flown or been to Alabama so it was OK in that respect."

Preparations were made for the game in a hurry. The team would have to stay in Kirksville for 
Thanksgiving because the game was the following Saturday. "We ate Thanksgiving dinner together 
as a team. Practices had been good all week and team unity was running really strong at that 
point," Craddock said.

Another turn of events was the game was to be played at night. The Bulldogs hadn't played a night 
game all season. Jacksonville had played eight of their ten games under the lights. "We practiced 
under the lights in Jacksonville Friday night. I think the guys were used to the lights and it 
didn't bother any of us to play at night except that we waited around longer during the day on 
Saturday," Forsythe said. He said another factor that made playing at night easier was that almost 
all the guys played high school football at night and so it wasn't that new to them.

It was a game where the score didn't tell the story. The Bulldogs outgained Jacksonville State by 
over 220 total yards but lost by the most important numbers, points. Jacksonville capitalized on 
key Bulldogs turnovers, including a 99-yard interception return and won the game 34-21.

"I think the key reason we did so well all year was because we'd been together for so long. The 
seniors were Coach Craddock's first group of newcomers and us juniors were his second. We've 
played together for so long we knew what everyone else could do," Hayes said.

Graduation will see the Bulldogs losing 16 seniors, six of whom were first team all-MIAA members 
and five second team members. But five first team and two second team all-conference juniors are 
returning for next season, along with a host of talented sophomores and freshmen. Is there another 
conference championship and playoff trip waiting for the Bulldogs next season? Eckhoff said, "We 
should be as good as we were this year, maybe better." If there were odds on it, they'd almost 
have to agree. ECHO

An inexperienced coach and a young women's volleyball team could only add up to a 
Net Loss

Coming off a 27-7 record, a third place finish in the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic 
Association Conference Championships, and 11th place national ranking in the NCAA Division 
II standings in 1981, the women's volleyball team had a bright outlook for the 1982 season. 
But the best Head Coach Susan Rubesh could do was take a 5-21 team to the MIAA tournament.

"The season was a learning experience for the team as well as for Coach Rubesh," junior 
Tracy Ivanesky said. Rubesh, a 1981 graduate from Nebraska Wesleyan University, took the 
helm after the resignation of Barb Mayhew last spring.

Rubesh said, "My coaching philosophy is to develop a feeling of team unity and to let the 
women have fun. If they enjoy playing the sport I believe they will play to their 
potential."

"The coach knows her volleyball, she just needs more experience in applying her knowledge," 
freshman Julie Canull said.

There were seven newcomers on the 15-player roster. Freshmen Canull, Kim Brinker, Brenda 
Jefferson and Kerri Tucker played in the hitter positions with Canull doubling as a setter. 
Freshmen back-row players included Amy Potts, Margie Rigel and Shelly Tischkau. Ivanesky and 
Egofske, the co-captains, were the only starting players from the previous year.

"We had a lot of adjustments to make, having new players and a new coach," Meyerkord said. One 
adjustment for the team was keeping a positive attitude during a losing season. "There were 
times when we got down but this was mainly due to frustration," Canull said.

There were only three home matches during the season. In the home opener Sept. 17, the Bulldogs 
lost to Quincy College. In a tough five-game match on Sept. 28, the spikers lost to Graceland 
College. Rubesh sited "youth and inexperience" as causes for the defeat. St. Louis University 
handed the Bulldogs their third and final home-game loss on Oct. 1. "Against St. Louis, we 
played really well at times, and, at others we lost our momentum," Rubesh said. At that point 
in the season the team had a 2-6 match record.

"Home games could have been better if there had been higher attendance. A rowdy crowd can really 
pump us up," Canull said. Some players expressed the feeling that with women's sports if they have 
a winning season they (the students) will back you, but if you are losing there is no support. 
However, men's athletics gets the support regardless.

By the end of the season the Bulldogs had only won three more matches and looked at a 5-23 record. 
"Overall the team had a good attitude even though we had a losing record," Ivanesky said. Senior 
Janet Westphal said it was difficult to be motivated because they only won five games. "You go into 
a game wondering if you're going to win."

"The physical ability and skills were there but our mental skills and inexperience were lacking," 
Meyerkord said.

Westphal seemed to put the season into perspective. "Since I'm going to coach someday, I've looked 
at this year as a learning experience toward my future career." ECHO

The women's track team qualified three competitors for the NCAA National Division II championships 
and the women were really Going places

Highlighting the women's track team's 1982 season was the competition in the National Collegiate 
Athletic Association Division II Track and Field Championships at California State in Sacramento 
Cal., by three of the members. The NCAA competition was the first held since the team changed 
affiliation.

Last year women's track switched from the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women to 
the NCAA. According to Kenneth Gardner, director of athletics, there were two reasons for switching 
from the AIAW to the NCAA. "Basically the NCAA is a stronger organization and we also wanted all of 
our athletics to be governed by one organization and one set of rules," Gardner said.

Despite running against what Gardner described as tougher competition, the team turned in some fine 
performances. Junior Myrna Moore qualified in both the long jump and the 100-meter hurdles for the 
trip to California. Sophomore Linda Mericle also qualified in the 100-meter hurdles, and freshman 
Marlene Frahm traveled to the NCAA championships to compete in the shot put. The trio placed 24th 
as a team. The young shot putter captured an exceptional sixth place finish and Moore placed 11th 
in the hurdles. Mericle followed closely in 13th place. Mericle said, 'It was quite an honor. I was 
really surprised and not planning on it."

Coach John Cochrane was pleased with the women's performances. "They performed as well as they had 
all year at that level of competition."

The season held high points for some of the team members at meets other than the national competition. 
For sophomore Jennifer Rumley, the MIAA conference meet at Southeast Missouri State University was a 
team highlight. "It was the last meet of the season and we all pulled together." Rumley came away with 
a second place finish at the meet in the 800-meter run. Still, her time of 2 minutes, 15.6 seconds 
wasn't good enough for a ticket to Sacramento.

Out of 24 major events, the women compiled 12 new school records. NCAA championship competitor Frahm 
hurled the shot put 44 feet 5 inches and the discus 132 feet 10 inches.

Teammate Moore was responsible for an 18 feet 4.5 inches leap in the long jump, an individual run of 
14.1 seconds in the 100-meter hurdles and took part in new records set by the 440-yard and 4 by 200 
relay teams.

The 440 team also included sophomore Salinda Watkins, Mericle and junior Nancy Witte and boasted a 
time of 48.9. Witte also broke the 400-meter dash record with a 57.2.

The 4 by 200-meter relay team ran a 1:45.70 behind the steam of Moore, Witte, freshman Donna Davis, 
and freshman Marsha Burke. Witte also participated on the 4:02.7 recordholding mile relay team along 
with Burke, freshman Jill Bonnstetter and Rumley. Rumley also now holds the 800-meter run mark with 
a time of 2:15.60 and was part of the two mile relay team which boasts a new record of 9:47.8. Paula 
Hughes, Bonnstetter. and Roberta Warren finish the slate. Warren also broke the 1500-meter run record 
with a 4:52.53 blitz.

Besides these team leaders, Cochrane cited junior Vicki Kijewski and Witte as two leaders who set a 
high morale for the team. Kijewski placed second in the 5000-meter run at the Western Illinois dual 
and seventh in the 3000-meter run at Southwest Missouri State Relays.

The lady Dogs lose few performers and Cochrane and the veteran women have an optimistic outlook for 
the future. "Every year we keep getting faster and stronger and break more records." Mericle said. 
The women look forward to going even further and faster next season. ECHO Story by Michelle Yost

A stride ahead

After a somewhat poor indoor season for the Bulldog track team, the men flourished during 
outdoor competition.

According to Head Coach Ed Schneider, temporary instructor of physical education, the team 
seemed to get stronger throughout the 1982 season to end with a third place conference finish. 
The Dogs succumbed to first place winners Southeast Missouri State.

Probably the highlight of the Bulldogs' season was qualifying six men for the National Collegiate 
Athletic Association Division II Nationals in Sacramento, Cal. Junior Ray Armstead qualified in 
the 400-meter dash, sophomore Alec Meinke in the shot put, freshman Marty Sprague in the steeplechase, 
senior Kent Hackamack in the long jump, sophomore Freddy Thompson in the triple jump, and freshman 
Tim St. Clair in the pole vault. St. Clair was "thrilled" to go to Sacramento. However, he failed 
to place in the meet. "I should have done better but I was nervous." St. Clair felt his lack of 
experience hurt his performance.

Meinke, Sprague and Thompson each placed in their respective events. The star, however, had to be 
Armstead. Armstead shot to a 46.13 finish in his race, good for third at Sacramento. Armstead was 
also chosen as an All-American and was eligible for the NCAA Division I Nationals at Brigham Young 
University in Utah. Although he didn't place well in the meet, Armstead said he felt that competition 
on the Division I level was a good experience.

The Bulldog trackster's goal for the indoor season was to qualify for the combined Division I and II 
National Indoor Competition in Detroit, Mich. Beyond that, Armstead said, "My ultimate goal is the 
1984 Olympics." This goal is not too unattainable for the junior, since the qualifying time to run 
in the Olympic trials is 46.4 in the 400-meter dash nearly three tenths of a second above his 
current record.

Besides his superior performances, Coach Schneider said he felt that Armstead was "a captain on and 
off the track." Likewise, the young man's success did not just appear. "He has really made himself 
a good quarter-miler through hard work."

Pertaining to the entire team, Schneider said, "I felt that the way we finished the outdoor season 
showed a lot of potential. We have a good nucleus returning and a lot of promise for the future." 
Part of this promise might be the attitudes of the team members. "Our team was really great. I have 
a lot of respect for the older guys because they always helped me," St. Clair said. ECHO

Disappointment and close losses made the soccer team Just miss the mark

What looked to be a promising season for second-year Coach John Guffey's soccer team, turned 
into a frustrating one. Time after time, the Bulldogs came within a shot away of pulling out 
a victory and missed the mark.

The Bulldogs finished the season, 5-8-3 in varsity games, 1-3-0 in conference, and 7-10-3 overall 
(including club teams). Four of their 10 losses were decided by one goal and three of them were 1-0 
shutouts. The Bulldogs established a solid defense but the lack of a consistent scorer denied them 
a winning season. "We just needed somebody to put the ball in the net consistently," said sophomore 
Mike Sutter, an MIAA first-team all-conference pick last year. Sutter was also the Dogs' leading 
point getter with three goals and 10 assists this season.

Low scoring was the case from the start of the season for the Bulldogs, as they opened with a 1-3 
loss to the University of Minnesota. During one stretch, the Dogs scored only one goal in four 
games. One of those was a 1-0 shutout in overtime at the hands of University of Missouri-Columbia, 
a game where it was never more evident that the Bulldogs needed more scoring punch. For 90 minutes 
of regulation time, freshman goalkeeper Stan Dippel and the Dogs displayed their usual stingy defense. 
They also stood fast for eight more minutes into the overtime before yielding the game's only goal. 
Junior Greg LaVallee and senior Alex Ajraz just missed a score in each half of the regulation play. 
Both shots hit the goal post.

Dippel's defensive efforts didn't go completely unnoticed. His five shutouts over the course of the 
season earned him MIAA Player-of-the-Week honors on two occasions. The honor was a first for any 
Bulldog soccer player. Dippel led the conference in saves with 161, and his five shutouts were also 
at the top of the list. "It was a great honor to win the award. I had a good time playing soccer here 
and if we have everybody return next year, we can't do anything but improve," Dippel said.

Highlights of the season were the second place finish in the University of Missouri-St. Louis Tournament 
where the Bulldogs shut out Memphis State, 2-0, before losing to UMSL, 5-0. Another highlight came in the 
season finale when the Dogs captured their first MIAA victory, blanking the University of Missouri-Rolla, 
1-0. "We deserved to beat a team the caliber of UMR," Guffey said. "With the way our season went, we needed 
to win our last game."

Although success didn't grow in 1982, the popularity of the sport did at the University. More fans than 
in previous seasons showed up at the games and senior Ajraz, Alvero Duran, Ed Harlow and Mark Barron all 
agreed that 1982 was their most enjoyable season. "This year was even more enjoyable for me. The group 
was very close from the coach on down," Duran, who has been playing soccer here since the sport was 
inaugurated four years ago, said.

With that kind of attitude, younger Bulldog players have every reason to be optimistic about next year. 
"It was kind of disappointing that we didn't win more games this year, but we're still a young team and 
we're still learning," sophomore Rob Berra said. ECHO

From third in 1981 to second in 1982, the golf team is Moving one step at a time

"Self-gratifying" was the word junior Cory Scott used to describe his 1982 golf season. The 
team pulled their season to a dramatic end with a stunning second place finish during the 
Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association Conference Championship. According to Coach Bill 
Richerson, head of the Division of Health, Physical Education and Recreation, the competition 
for that spot seemed to be a toss-up between the Bulldogs, the University of Missouri-St. Louis 
and the University of Missouri-Rolla. "We needed to play up to our potential," Richerson said. 
"We did, and we took second. I don't think we could have gotten first." Central Missouri State 
University sat in the top spot, but the Dogs were very happy with their performance.

Senior Jeff Tussey led the Bulldogs to an eighth place finish out of 20 teams at the Park College 
Tournament. Tussey landed a third place berth out of some lOO competitors with an overall score of 
150 for the two rounds. However, Tussey didn't necessarily feel his accomplishment made him the 
team leader. "I really don't think I did but I can attribute the leadership to my past experience 
at Park College and to Coach Richerson's training." Scott had the next best score for the Dogs in 
the tournament with a 157 followed by junior Rick Hercules with a 161.

The experienced Bulldogs came away with a win in both scheduled dual meets and in their triangular 
with Westminster College and Lincoln University. The most memorable dual competition was with 
Culver-Stockton. The Dogs won after two holes of sudden death following a tie after 18 holes.

The Bulldog golfers began playing in the fall as a warm-up for the upcoming season. According to 
Richerson, the basic purpose for the fall season is to choose the squad for spring play. He said 
that at this time, the golfers, as well as the courses are in better shape. "In the fall, the 
golfers can be seen at their best." Richerson usually schedules two or three matches, none of 
which affect the regular spring season. The Dogs participated in a tournament at CMSU where 10 
to 12 teams competed. The team was split into two squads, one of which took fourth and the other 
sixth place. The team also won a dual against William Jewell that was played on a neutral course 
in Chillicothe.

Most of the team members felt the fall competition was constructive. According to Scott, "It keeps 
us toned up and gives the younger people a chance to see new courses and gain experience." For 
Richerson, it makes the process of cutting the team to eight or 10 men a lot easier. Because players 
are "seen at their best," Richerson said that the team chosen for the spring is the best of what 
they have to offer.

Looking back at the successful season, sophomore Dudley Thomas said, "We didn't really lose any players 
to graduation and we had a lot of players coming back with experience who knew what it would take to 
win." 

The coach said that the team was very competitive and well-led by the seniors. "We think we have more 
quality players than we've had in a long time.'' ECHO

Greener pastures

"Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown." Shakespeare said it; Head Coach Bruce Craddock 
wore the crown.

After two consecutive Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association football championships at 
the helm of the Bulldogs, Craddock pulled up stakes and headed for the greener pastures of 
Western Illinois University in Macomb, Ill.

The greener pastures, in this case, involve a larger (Division I-AA) school with a large football 
budget, more scholarships and a need to turn things around after six consecutive losing seasons.

Craddock, who led the 1982 Bulldogs to the National Collegiate Athletic Association national 
playoffs with a 9-2 record, considered the move a career-booster, and a chance to meet the 
challenge of trying to cure an ailing program.

"The decision to leave Northeast was a very tough decision, but for my career at this time, 
it's one that I think I had to make," he said. "The opportunity to compete against bigger 
schools really made it a chance to move up. Also, here (at Western Illinois) I'll have six 
fulltime assistants instead of two."

Administrators didn't have to venture far from home to find a man to replace Craddock, who 
left with a 24-19 record as a head coach.

The new man on the job is Jack Ball, a 1963 graduate of the University. Ball played quarterback 
when Craddock was an offensive lineman for the Bulldogs.

Kenneth Gardner, athletic director, was head football coach then and he said Ball is a natural 
leader.

"Jack has a tremendous personality," Gardner said. "He is a tremendous leader. All the players he 
played with fully respected him."

Ball has served for the last seven years as head football coach at Parkway Central High School in 
St. Louis. Included in his list of coaching honors was being named St. Louis High School Coach of 
the Year. He won conference championships in 1976 and 1977, and his 1982 squad advanced as far as 
the state semi-finals. Ball also worked as an assistant coach on the high school level.

Ball is not outwardly concerned with making the transition from high school to college coaching.

"The main objective facing us is to select the type of players it will take to continue to win," 
he said. "An asset we have here, one that will help make the transition easier, is that we have 
a good nucleus of returning players to start from."

Ball, described by Gardner as a fine passer in college, said that initially the passing attack 
would continue to be a focal point in the Bulldogs' offense.

"Stepping in the way we are, we have an outstanding passing attack," he said.

WITH THE FOOTBALL tucked, freshman Larry Wilkins works on drills during spring ball, as Head Coach 
Jack Ball comments on his performance. Ball was hired in December of 1982.

IN THE HUDDLE, Bruce Craddock, former head football coach, goes over strategy with the defensive 
line. Craddock led the Bulldog team to the NCAA Division II playoffs in Jacksonville, Ala.
 
(Page 245)

"Ultimately, though, we would ideally like a balanced offense so that we can attack people 
on the ground and in the air as well.

"In crucial situations, we'll need to be able to control the ball on the ground," he said.

One might expect some adjustment problems when a new coach comes into a system with several 
returning players, but Ball hopes to avoid that through a basic philosophy on coaching.

"My philosophy is rather simple," he said, "and the keys to it are discipline and consistency. 
It is really a matter of enforcing what we expect from the athletes, and developing consistency 
by maintaining good work habits in practice."

Recruiting is another area of concern for Ball, as it is for any college coach. This year, because 
of limited time, Ball decided to restrict his recruiting to the state of Missouri. Further recruiting, 
however is a matter that Gardner said should be no problem for Ball.

"Jack is well-known and liked by a lot of coaches, so he'll have a lot of people letting him know about 
good players," Gardner said.

"We'll rely on alumni for support and for finding high school athletes," Ball said, "and we'd like to 
involve the city of Kirksville more because of all the support they give us."

Ball said he planned no radical changes for the Bulldogs, but wouldn't elaborate too much on what kind 
of changes he would make.

"We have some ideas on some changes we'd like to make," he said. "But they're not major by any means."

1982 was a good year for Bulldog football fans, and if University administration and new Head Coach Jack 
Ball have their way, the "ball" will keep things rolling right along in 1983. ECHO

Pressing the advantage

It's not often that a coach can say his team fulfilled every goal they'd set prior to the 
season. However, Coach Terry Taylor said just that about the 1982 men's tennis team. The 
team finished with a record of 16-4, winning the MIAA conference, the NCAA Division II 
Regional Tournament and ranking nationally in the top ten.

"I was really proud of them as a team. They set team goals and accomplished them," Taylor 
said.

Taking into consideration the team's schedule, he said he felt the team played well. "We had 
a tough schedule," he said. "There were very few breathers, if any."

The team jumped off to a strong start, winning its first eight meets and 14 of its first 16. 
The No. 1 doubles team of sophomore Brian Campbell and junior Bruce Levelle received bids to 
the national tournament. However each team lost to its top seeded opponent who went on to win 
the national tournament.

There was concern about having only the No. 1 singles and doubles teams get national bids.

"I felt as if they had thrown us a bone," Taylor said. "NMSU should have gotten consideration 
for a 6-3 bid (six singles and three doubles teams). We were definitely the second best school 
next to SlU-Edwardsville."

Taylor said he felt the team had no real weaknesses. He said the only mistake he could recall 
was a mistake in judgment where he allowed the team to play in 28-degree weather with heavy 
winds. The team lost the match to Southeast Missouri State University.

Some of the high points of the season included a second match against SEMO where senior Roberto 
Norton clinched the conference title for the team. If Norton had not won, the team would have 
had to take two out of the three doubles matches remaining, Taylor said.

Roberto Norton said the only disappointment was having to miss about 15 days of school to go to 
meets.

For Carlos Norton, the highlight of the season was the trip to California, where the team won all 
four of its matches. He said that the biggest disappointment of the season was the national bid 
selection "because Brian Campbell had (an) excellent singles (record) and he did not get to play 
nationals." We thought we were going to get 4-2 bid."

Campbell was happy with his season, finishing with a 26-4 mark, the best in the Midwest, but upset 
hat he didn't receive a singles bid to nationals along with others on the team, who he said he felt 
should have gone.

"I think our team is better than last year's team, " he said.

Taylor said the doubles teams of Norton and Norton, and junior Rich Kielczewski and junior Kevin 
Kickham were "outstanding all year long."

Kickham said that the most enjoyable aspect of the 1982 season was the fact that the team was 
successful and able to enjoy playing.

"Tennis is a lot of fun and we had a great record," he said.

He said that he was disappointed that more of the team members did not get bids to the nationals, 
especially Roberto Norton and Campbell.

"That would have been the icing on the cake (having more players make the nationals). The tournament 
was hurt by those two not being in it," he said.

The team of Campbell and Levelle started out strong at the beginning of the season but after a while 
they lost a couple of matches and Taylor juggled the doubles combinations to find a good working team. 
He eventually went back to Campbell and Levelle. The two transferred from the same junior college and 
were a good team, Taylor said.

Although the team no longer has the services of Manuel Cervantes or Levelle, who have graduated, Taylor 
is looking forward to a strong team next year. "We have an all-senior team. We have a chance to be a 
dynasty and win back-to-back conference championships."

Taylor said he has one more team goal--to have an All-American in either singles or doubles.

But going down in the records as a dynasty isn't bad either. ECHO

Women's tennis couldn't quite break even but they felt the slump was Just a phase

Failure is not the way to describe the 1982 women's tennis team, despite the Bulldog's 
4-7 dual record. Coach Jo Ann Weekley, instructor of physical education and recreation, 
referred to the season as "transitional". With freshman Kanista Zuniga settling in the 
No. 2 singles position and posting an 11-5 personal record the team process was that of 
gaining experience. Zuniga had only played doubles before becoming a part of the Dogs' 
team, so a singles berth was a new experience. Besides the lack of experience of the young 
team, Zuniga attributed some of the team's poor results to their lack of practice. "We went 
into so many matches cold."

Another talented freshman, Lori Harrison, usually filled the No. 4 singles position. Harrison 
posted a personal record of 8-7 which fared second on the Bulldogs' final tally behind Zuniga's 
accomplishment. The two teamed up for doubles and posted a 9-2 record which proved to be among 
the best doubles scores in the state. Harrison was "nervous" about her high placement on the 
team. She said "I didn't like the rebuilding year, but I got more experience playing tougher 
girls."

Weekley described the team as split with half of the women coming back with at least one year 
of intercollegiate competition under their belts and the other half freshmen. Junior Tracy 
Einspanjer remained in the No. 1 singles spot and teamed up with senior Latricia Lanpher, who 
played No. 3 singles, to create the top doubles team. Einspanjer and Lanpher, as well as junior 
Kim Sanders who played in the No. 5 singles position and sophomore Carol Veatch who teamed up 
with Sanders for doubles, came off the 1981 season with an 11-3 mark compiled by a team of 
seasoned veterans.

Weekley said she didn't expect to equal last year's exceptional mark due to the key spots being 
filled by freshmen. "It's really hard whenever you have freshmen, about making the switch from 
high school to college level," Weekley said. However, she thought the consistency of the freshmen 
held the team up, and the younger players were probably more consistent than the older players.

Weekley said the match with Southeast Missouri State University was the key match of the season. 
Weekley said she felt the Dogs had a chance to beat the team and earn some top-seeded spots in 
the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association championships. She said she felt the women 
performed poorly and SEMO went on to finish out their season with the National Collegiate Athletic 
Association Division II crown.

Another transition experienced by the 1982 team was that of the switch from the Association of 
Intercollegiate Athletics for Women to NCAA. The AIAW, which was supposedly the equivalent to 
the men's NCAA affiliation, experienced financial difficulties. This year all state college 
women's tennis teams moved to the NCAA. Although the change was not too drastic, many of the 
rules and procedures of the new affiliation differ from the AIAW.

According to Weekley, this transitional team which experienced a lot of rough waters after last 
year's success, will lead to a very experienced team for the next two or three years. Weekley has 
stepped down as the women's tennis coach, after sixteen years of work in that capacity, but she 
will retain her teaching position. She leaves behind a young team with recently gained knowledge 
about their competition and needed varsity experience. ECHO

ON THE STARTING platform, freshman swimmer Bob Conley leans toward his lane while listening for 
the starting commands. Conley competed in the freestyle event against Washington University.

The season was expected to be one of rebuilding and construction began On a strong foundation

Men's swimming coach Mark Mullin called the 1982-83 season a rebuilding year, but that does not 
mean that Mullin was surprised in the least with the team's 8-5 record.

Before the season started in November, Mullin said the team was, "in a rebuilding stage," but 
that he anticipated a winning season because of improved talent and attitudes. Mullin proved 
correct on both counts.

Only four members of the 1982-1983 team, senior Bob Bouquet and Doug Waibel, junior Matt Foss 
and sophomore Dan Oertel, returned from last year's 2-3 team. Despite the lack of returnees, 
the team opened the season in fine fashion with a 62-51 victory over the University of 
Missouri-St. Louis and a 71-41 win over St. Louis University in a double-dual match held 
in St. Louis.

After starting out the season at 2-0 the team bounced around the .500 level during December, 
January and February. The men beat Principia College, the University of Nebraska-Omaha, 
Creighton University, and William Jewell College, but fell to Western Illinois, the 
University of Northern Iowa, Augustana College, Washington University and the University 
of Missouri-Rolla. The team ended their dual season with victories over both Creighton 
and Grinnell College in a double-dual meet.

The victory over Grinnell, at the loser's pool, was one of the most rewarding for Waibel. 
"I've been on the team for four years and we have never beaten Grinnell. The win over 
Creighton was nice but it sure felt good to beat Grinnell at their home place in my last 
dual meet," Waibel said.

The very next day, however, both Grinnell and Creighton defeated the men's team in the 
Buddah Invitational. Lack of swimmers, the main problem throughout the season, was the 
reason. "Since I've been here, there has been a big turnover of personnel, and there is 
no question in my mind that we have a better quality of people. The only problem is we 
just don't have enough," Foss, team captain, said.

At the end of the season the team only had eight swimmers and four divers, not enough personnel 
to cover all the events during the course of some meets. "Back at Truman (Truman High School 
in Independence, Mo.) we had 24 people out for swimming and only lost three dual meets in three 
years. I know the competition is a lot tougher now but I also know that the people we do have 
are a lot tougher too. I don't see any reason why we can't develop the same kind of depth here," 
freshman Scott Sharkey said.

Waibel said this year's team had more depth than any other team he had been on, but another good 
group of freshmen would have to be brought in next year before the problem with depts could be 
solved. "We are a young team. Only Bob Bouquet and I will graduate in May, so if Coach Mullin 
can bring five or six guys in next year, then the team should have no problem with being spread 
too thin."

The two graduating seniors are vital members of the diving portion of the team. Last year, 
Bouquet qualified and placed 26th at the 1982 NCAA Division II Championships. Waibel qualified 
and placed 42nd. In 1983, Waibel missed out on the national but Bouquet, holder of every 
University diving record, competed in the championships.

IT'S NOT A BIRD or a plane, but freshman diver Tony Davis executing a dive from the high

Besides qualifying for the nationals, Bouquet also set new school records in the 3- and 1-meter, 
6-dive events. His total 271.40 points for the 1-meter dive broke his old mark of 256.55 set in 
1980. The 266.3 points on the 3-meter board bettered his previous best, and old school record, 
by 20 points.

Freshmen Mark Holman and Foss also set new school records. Holman set the new school record in 
the 1,000-yard freestyle with a time of 10:25.69, erasing the old mark of 10:30.66 set last year 
by Kent Dalrymple. Foss's time of 50.11 in the 100-yard freestyle just did beat the old mark of 
50.14 set in 1981. Both will be back next year to provide a strong foundation on which to build 
a team.

Foss, who believes he has a good chance at qualifying for the national next year, said the team 
is only a year away from developing into a team that can compete with anyone. "Every year we are 
getting stronger. Next year, if we can bring in a breaststroker and a couple of other guys, well 
be looking good," Foss said. ECHO

A stroke of success

For the third straight year, success has been the women's swimming team motto. In 1980-81 and 
1981-82 the women compiled identical 7-1 dual meet records. This year the team finished 
11-2 and had five women qualify for the NCAA Division II Swimming and Diving Championships.

Coming into the 1982-83 season, there seemed little room left for improvement and with tough 
teams such as Western Illinois and the University of Missouri-Columbia added to the schedule, 
it seemed that the swim team would have a tough time repeating the successes of the previous 
two years. Second-year coach Mark Mullin was one person who felt differently and went as far 
to predict, "This will be the best year in swimming at NMSU." Mullin's prediction was right 
on the nose. On Dec. 10 the women's dual record was 2-2, but from that point on, they went 9-0, 
qualified five swimmers for the nationals and did indeed improve.

After starting out 2-0 on the season by defeating the University of Missouri-St. Louis and St. 
Louis University, the swimmers ran into two setbacks in a row. Division I schools, the University 
of Missouri-Columbia and Western Illinois, defeated the team 64-85 and 53-96 respectively.

A day after the loss to Western Illinois, the swimmers once again regained their winning ways by 
defeating the University of Northern Iowa 94-54. The victory avenged the team's only setback of 
the year before. "They beat us 65-76 last year and we were thinking about that a little, but the 
main thing about that meet was just to swim well and get back to winning," senior Margaret Windish 
said.

From then on, win was all the team did. In January they registered wins against Principia College, 
Augustana, the University of Nebraska-Omaha, Creighton University, Washington University, and the 
School of the Ozarks. In February the team defeated William Jewell College and Grinnell College, 
to finish the dual season 11-2.

Also in February, the team participated in the Midwest Championships in Chicago. Despite finishing 
eighth out of 15 teams, many thought this was the best meet for the team. "We competed mostly against 
Division I schools and beat a lot of them. We kind of came from nowhere and surprised a few large 
schools like Notre Dame," Windish said. The Midwest Championships was the last regular meet for all 
swimmers except five. Those five women had one more meet left and that was the national meet held in 
Long Beach, Calif., March 16-19.

For the second year in a row, senior Sue Hanisch and junior Kathy Fasching qualified for the national 
meet. This year, however, they were joined by sophomore Kim Green and freshmen Lori Cline and Colette 
Salm.

Hanisch qualified for the lOO- and 200-breaststroke. Her qualifing time of 1:08.91 broke her old school 
record of 1:11.78. Cline qualified in the 50-yard butterflystroke and set a new school record at the 
meet. Her time of 28.04 topped the old record of 28.07 she set just this year. Cline also set school 
records in the 100- and 200-yard butterfly with times of 1:01.26 and 2:15.17.

Salm qualified for the 100- and 200-yard breaststroke events and swam a personal best of 2:34.30 in the 
200-yard race, however, the time was not fast enought to place in the meet. Salm is the school record 
holder in the 100-yard breaststroke with a time of 1:10.45.

Green finished in the top 30 out of 60 competitors at nationals in the 1,650-yard freestyle race. She 
holds the school record in that event, setting it this year, with a time of 17:48.08. She. also set a 
new record in the 500-yard freestyle with a time of 5:15.49 but was unable to qualify

for the nationals in that event.

Fasching, who last year qualified in the 200-yard backstroke, did not qualify for any 
individual events this year but was a member of the 400-yard medley rely team which set 
a new school record and qualified for the national meet. The team, which consisted of 
Cline, Hanisch, and Green as well as Fasching, set a new school time of 4:15.02, beating 
the old record by 6 seconds.

Although Hanisch's 15th place finish in the 100-yard breaststroke was the best finish the 
women could manage, Mullin was very pleased with how his team participated. "The competition 
was unbelieveably tough. There were three times the number of entries in the women's divisions 
as in the past," Mullin said. The best example of how tough things were was to look at the 
results in the 100-yard race. Mullin said there were 13 times in the race faster than the 
old national record.

Windish, who is one of three seniors on the team, said next year's team will be even more 
prepared for that increasingly tough national competition. "Our program is getting better 
and over the last two years we have been bringing in better quality of people. I think the 
future looks pretty bright for NMSU swimming." ECHO

Relative importance

. . . Once again, the starting defensive lineup for the Bulldogs is Gildehaus, Letuli, 
Letuli, Gildehaus. . ."

What? Gildehaus, Letuli, Letuli and Gildehaus? Did the announcer stutter or make a 
mistake?

Chances are he didn't. No, the brothers Gildehaus and Letuli were just two of four brother 
combinations on the football team and were part of a surprisingly large number of relatives 
on various University teams. Bulldog teams have seen brother combinations, sister combinations, 
brother and sister combinations and even husband and wife combinations.

"I liked having my brother on the team the past two seasons," senior Ligo Letuli, defensive 
tackle, said. "It helps both of us a lot. I think it made us closer too." A lot of that help, 
Letuli said, was constructive criticism. "My brother Terry (sophomore defensive tackle) and I 
usually sat down after a game and went over the plays. He'd tell me what I did right and what 
I did wrong. I think it really helped because it was kind of a private coach for me."

For Terry, having a brother on the team was a different kind of help. "It was really good for 
me. Because he was pretty good, it made me want to work harder. I guess you could say I'm 
following in his footsteps. I like that because it means I might be as good as he was."

But he also said there was a certain amount of rivalry built in. "When we were running in 
practice, we'd always race to see who won. If I won, the coaches would always kid Ligo about 
getting beat by his little brother. If he won, they'd always kid me about how the big brother 
was so good, and the little brother couldn't beat him."

In a somewhat different situation are junior Mark and sophomore Maggie Egofske. "Having my sister 
go here is kind of neat," he said. "I kind of look at it as my being the big brother and her the 
little sister but it really isn't that way. Once you get to college, you're pretty independent and 
we don't bother each other that much."

Because he's involved in football and she's in volleyball and softball, Egofske said they don't 
spend that much time talking about their own teams to each other. "No, I don't talk much about 
the way she plays, or she doesn't say much about how I do. Oh sure, we congratulate each other 
a lot but we don't try to coach each other," he said.

Coming from a sports-minded family is part of the reason both have gotten into sports. "I think 
because our family enjoys sports is probably the biggest reason Maggie and I got involved."

Scheduling sometimes makes it difficult to go to the other's games, but Egofske said he still 
keeps up with his sister. "I didn't get to many volleyball games because we were on the road 
in the fall with football when they were here with a game. I still talked with her enough to 
keep up with how she was doing. In the spring, I had more of a chance to get to her softball 
games. I know she went to as many football games as she could."

Egofske said his parents enjoy going to both of their games, although sometimes there'a conflict. 
"My dad's a football coach and he loves the game, so he always tries to go to my games. But they 
also tried to get to Maggie's games, too. Sometimes they had to choose but I don't think either 
of us were bothered by it."

One of the few, if not the only, married couple to participate in Bulldog athletics are juniors 
Cindy and Bryan Trickey. The two were married on New Year's Day, 1983 and have been running 
competitively here since their freshman year. "If it hadn't been for running, I don't think we'd 
have met," she said. "We met in our freshman year while we were running cross country and had 
gone out together since then."

One of the main advantages, she said, is that their schedules are very similar. "Although we 
don't practice together, our practices are at the same times in the morning and afternoon. It 
makes it easier to get up in the morning when someone else has to also. We end up having the 
same free time because of it."

But he said sometimes the free time wasn't spent together. "We'd try to be together as much as 
we could, but with our schedules it was sometimes tough. One weekend she may have an away meet 
and the next I may have one. She also works parttime so that cuts down on our actual free time."

Having someone around who understands your sport is also a plus, she said. "It helps a lot that 
Bryan is also a runner. He knows the things I'm going through from day to day. If my legs are 
sore or hurt, chances are he's experienced the same thing and can relate better."

"I think it's a definite advantage that we both run. We tend to eat the same things and can 
prepare for meets and stuff the same way," he said.

Whether it's a husband, wife, brother or sister, all agreed it's kind of a hidden asset. "Having 
someone around like that is like having your own coach," Ligo Letuli said. "The team coaches have 
to watch everybody and might not get a chance to concentrate on you. But with someone like Terry, 
he can watch me closely and help out with my problems."

"It's like having your own private cheerleader. I know, and Maggie does, that we'll both always 
have someone on our side. We'll always have a fan in the stands, even if we don't do so well," 
Egofske said. Undoubtedly, the Letulis, Egofskes, Trickeys, Gildehauses, Faauiasos, Matuus, 
Mikels and future family combinations all look at the whole thing rather philosophically. After 
all, it is all relative. ECHO

Injuries and a fifth place conference finish had the basketball team Fouled out

"We just couldn't ever seem to get everything together."

That's the way senior forward Vernon Dobelmann summed up the 1982-83 basketball 
season for the Bulldogs.

"We didn't play that many bad games, we'd just do some little things wrong in each game 
that would hurt us," Dobelmann said.

The little things added up to a disappointing 13-14 season and a fifth place finish in the 
Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association. For the first time ever, the MIAA took only 
the top four finishers into the post-season playoffs, so that fifth place finish meant 
spring break started earlier than the Bulldogs wanted it to.

"The season was disappointing," Head Coach Willard Sims, temporary instructor of physical 
education, said, "but it wasn't a disaster. Had Erik Hansen not been injured, he would have 
made a big difference for us."

Hansen, a 6-foot 9-inch freshman from Norway, was averaging 7.2 rebounds and had started the 
Bulldogs' first three games before a viral infection sidelined him for the remainder of the 
year.

"When we lost Erik," said senior sixth-man, Jim Renner, "we started getting hurt on the boards 
in a lot of games."

Fouled out

"Erik was getting better with every game," Sims said. "He and Mark Campbell will be our nucleus 
to build around next year."

Campbell, a 6-foot 1-inch junior guard, was nothing short of superb on occasion, and one of those 
occasions came in a triple overtime win over the University of Missouri-St. Louis in Pershing Arena. 
In that game, Campbell set a single game record with 16 assists, while playing 53 minutes of the 55 
minute game.

Campbell was named MIAA Player of the Week once and earned second team all-league honors for his work 
on the season. That work included leading the league in steals and assists, and averaging 12.4 points 
per game.

Campbell's backcourt running-mate, senior Gary Bussard was captain of the team, and said that he felt 
the responsibility made him play a bit harder than usual.

"I think I played better than I had in the past, because I sort of felt it was my responsibility to 
pick the team up," he said. Bussard, who felt some pressure to score more than he had previously, was 
third in individual scoring on the team behind Campbell and senior center James Hutcherson and finished 
second behind Campbell in the MIAA steals and assists categories.

Hutcherson started the season at forward, but returned to the center position when Hansen left the 
line-up. Hutcherson led the team in scoring with a 15.8 point average, which was good enough for 
fifth in the conference. Most of his points came on short-range jump hook shots. "Hutch" was the 
league's second best rebounder with an average of 8.67 caroms per game.

Renner continued to be a sparkplug off the bench, as he had his junior season. He was among the 
team's leading scorers down the stretch.

A poor start and an equally slow finish hurt the Bulldogs' season. They dropped four of their first 
five decisions and ended the year by losing three of four on the road.

Despite the losing record, there were some bright spots for the University. The triple overtime win 
at home over UMSL was called by some veteran observers the most exciting game in several years. The 
Bulldogs rolled to a 99-78 non-conference win over Iowa Wesleyan College in midseason, and also 
picked up a thrilling non-conference win over archrival Quincy College in late February.

However bright the spotlight might have been at times, there were others when it appeared that 
someone had cut the power all together. In early losses to Iowa State University and the 
University of Missouri-Rolla, it seemed as if the Bulldogs could do nothing right.

Besides Campbell and Hansen, Sims will return sophomore forwards John Adams, Warren Halverson, 
Lonnie Fisher and Greg Scherder and freshman forward Gordon Skagestad. Skagestad, part-time 
starter, is considered by Sims and Assistant Coach Ben Pitney to be a real offensive threat.

Recruiting objectives for next year, Sims said, are quickness and scoring potential.

"We're looking for people who will improve our overall quickness and be a threat to score," he 
said. He and Pitney said that nearly all the recruiting was being done at the junior college 
level.

With four of his top players leaving, Sims will be faced with a rebuilding job in an attempt to 
return the team to playoff stature. Much of his success will depend on how successful his 
recruiting will be.

Bussard, for one, thinks 1983-84 may hold some greener pastures for the Bulldogs.

"If they can get a couple of guys recruiting, they'll be all right," he said. ECHO

Efforts to prevent cheerleader burnout and offer freshmen the opportunity to cheer 
resulted in a difference of opinion and a Divided Spirit

The faces change when the action moves from the football field to the basketball court. 
Until this year those changing faces did not include the faces of the cheerleaders. 
Instead of one squad for both football and basketball Separate try outs were held for 
each season. "This (the tryout process) was originally done so people wouldn't be so 
apathetic," senior Melissa Heagy said.

The change also enabled freshmen to try out rather than forcing them to wait until their 
sophomore year.

Freshman Kassi Arnold said try outs were scary. "A lot of people already knew what was 
going on. It's very tense and the major factor is trusting your partner. It's hard to 
smile and show enthusiasm when you have eyes glued on you. You have to imagine that there 
is a game going on," she said.

Junior Becky Huff said, "Try outs were very competitive. You have to get yourself psyched."

The waiting was the hardest part for the new members because they did not find out until the 
next day if they had made the squad. "In that time you think about all the bad things you did," 
Arnold said.

Junior Denise Johnston, second year cheerleader, said, "It was more hectic this year because we 
were still cheering for football while trying out for basketball." The football squad members 
trying out for basketball were forced to take time out from squad practices for cheerleading 
clinics.

"People don't know the effort that goes into it (cheerleading)," Heagy said. To many, the 
advantages of a split squad were few. It did, however, give students who wanted to cheer 
for only one sport a chance to make the squad.

"The advantage of this year's squad is not having everybody burned out," senior Greg Geels 
said.

"It was done to start something new and in that sense it worked," Heagy said.

But the disadvantages seem to outweigh the advantages of this system. "I think the system 
is unorganized due to no financial support. Kirksville just doesn't have the numbers," 
Heagy said.

The cheerleaders are alloted $3,000 for expenses. A major expense for the squad is summer 
camp. However, there is not enough money to send both squads to camp.

"An important part of the squad is being able to go to camp. It gets the squad closer together 
and more enthusiastic," Geels said.

"We can't afford to have two different squads," Johnston said. Johnston said that several of 
the larger universities have separate squads but they could afford it.

Basketball try outs were two weeks before the season started which caused many problems.

"Try outs should have been sooner so there would have been time to practice." Geels said.

Because the seasons overlapped, the two squads had to switch uniforms back and forth. The 
shoes also created a problem because not everybody had matching pairs for the basketball 
squad. The shoes must be ordered in the summer and the separate tryout for basketball 
prevented this.

"The problem with split squads is the new girls throw you off. You have to restart again, 
where the old squad was more advanced," Johnston said.

Due to the lack of publicity, some veteran cheerleaders said the selection for the basketball 
squad was not as good as the choices for football.

"I am against the whole system. I would like to see it switched back to one squad," Heagy said.

The new system will be re-evaluated at the end of this year," Jane Davis, cheerleader adviser, 
said. Davis said there were advantages and disadvantages to the split squad and whether or not 
the same arrangement will exist next year will depend on which weighs most. ECHO

CAUGHT IN A FOLLOW-THROUGH, sophomore Yvonne Jones shoots the first free throw after a two-shot 
foul. The Bulldogs overcame the Lincoln Tigers 73-62 in the home conference match up.

Injuries spoiled what should have been a year of rebuilding for the Bulldog women's basketball 
team. The 1981-82 season saw the departure of Carol Jarrard and Angie Griffin who combined for 
34 points and 20 rebounds per game to take the team into the National Collegiate Athletic 
Association and the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association Division II Regionals behind 
veteran coach Mary Jo Murray

Senior Joni Williams was one of the biggest hopes for the 1982-83 season and she did well once 
she was allowed to play after Christmas break. Williams was sidelined before Christmas for 
non-sports related head injuries and watched the action from the bench.

Once Williams was allowed back on the courts, she led the Bulldogs in scoring average with 11.9 
points per game, earning her all-conference honorable mention honors.

Senior Judee Trumblee was another hope for the lady Dogs. Trumblee relieved Jarrard last season 
and took the first team All-American's position this year. But Trumblee was forced to sit out 
three games with a variety of injuries. Trumblee followed Williams in the scoring and rebounding 
categories for the team.

In addition to the injury-riddled seniors, six other team members suffered injuries along the way, 
and the combination caused a disappointing season.

"This season was very much a disappointment for me. I've never coached a losing

In a bad way

season. With all the scrambling around we had to do with injuries, things got real tough," 
Murray said.

Junior forward Lois Heeren, the team's leading rebounder with a 7.2 game average, suffered 
her third knee injury in as many years early in February and missed the last seven games of 
the season. Trumblee was absent from the lineup for some of the same games.

But Heeren was more disappointed because she was sidelined just as her season was reaching 
a peak. Coming off a 23-point, seven rebound game against the University of Missouri-St. 
Louis, Heeren had moved into something of a leadership role for the team. Still, Heeren 
earned an all-conference honorable mention berth.

"Personally, this season was frustrating because of the injury to my knee," Heeren said. 
"I was both surprised and happy when I heard I made all-conference because I missed so 
many conference games."

Despite the adversity, the underclassmen on the team improved, even though they too suffered 
injuries. Sophomore Lori Janes came on late in the season to replace the injured Trumblee and 
Heeren. Janes received MIAA player-of-the-week honors and earned second team all-conference 
recognition. The sophomore also suffered a sprained ankle in the closing week of the season.

Freshman Carey Boleach came in the injury-stricken games and led the team in rebounding in 
five games and in scoring on three more occasions. Boleach also missed games during the season 
due to injuries.

"Some bright spots of our season were the play of Janes and Boleach. They each improved 
tremendously over the season," Murray said.

But that was not the end of the injuries list. Junior starting guard Angie Brown and forward 
Tracy Ivanesky missed playing time because of injuries. Freshman reserve guard Christy Forquer 
missed much of the year with an illness.

The only player to avoid injury was junior guard Tammy Parton who Murray looks for to take over 
floor leadership during the next season.

"I would think Tammy could become a scorer, and she is the best passer on the team," Murray said. 
"I look for her to take over the point guard spot and run the show."

Brown played more minutes than anyone else on the team and said she realizes that some of the 
scoring burden will be on her and Parton with Trumblee and Williams both graduating.

"I need to shoot more and try to pick up some of the slack next year," she said.

Janes also hopes to become more of an offensive threat next year.

"I plan to work on my outside shooting in the off-season," she said. "Hopefully, next year we'll 
be getting some big girls to come in, so I'll be able to move to forward more."

Murray said confidence was the key to the hope for Boleach's sucess next year.

"If Carey gets more self-confidence," Murray said, "I think she can really be a player."

Williams and Trumblee were disappointed in going out with more of a fizz than a bang, but were not 
totally pessimistic.

"Even though we had a losing season, I had a good time playing because our team was so close. I'd 
say our season was pretty successful considering we had so many injuries," Trumblee said.

As for Williams, her career ended on a good note with a 79-49 conference win over the University 
of Missouri-Rolla and a personal 25-point performance.

Ten of this year's 12-player nucleus are expected to return next season and the optimism among 
the underclassmen is high.

"I thought we were better than our 9-16 record indicated this year. But next year should be 
pretty successful. We'll miss Joni's (Williams) shooting, but if we can get some good recruits, 
we'll have a successful season," Janes said.

But recruiting may pose a problem. After seven years as head coach, Murray resigned and there 
is some controversy surrounding the hiring of a replacement.

"We're kind of optimistic (about next 
season)," Brown said. "But I think we're a little apprehensive because of the situation where 
we really don't know who our coach is going to be."

Even if the recruiting process is not as successful for next season as hoped, the underclassmen 
on the 1982-83 Bulldog team have proven their strength by not only filling in for injured players, 
but more importantly, doing an excellent job at it. Bigger girls will probably be what the new 
coach will look for next year, but the foundation of the team is already firmly established. ECHO

Celebrated Series

A CARDINAL PENNANT is added to the collage of posters on the wall by junior Darryl Nitsch. 
Nitsch, a St. Louis native, attended the final game of the World Series.

It all began on opening day, April 6, in the Houston Astrodome. St. Louis' starting pitcher 
Bob Forsch downed Houston fireballer Nolan Ryan 14-3 as the Cardinals banged out 18 hits.

The Redbirds lost the next night but then reeled off 12 straight victories that put the 
pennant fever in mind.

The 'Birds were off and flying.

There were almost as many downs as there were ups for the Cardinals hampered by injuries and 
slumps. But the Redbirds never gave up.

On Sept. 27, the Cardinals beat the Expos in Montreal to clinch the National League East 
Division Championship. Rookie speedster Willie McGee helped the victory with an inside-the-
park home run.

It was now time for the Cardinals to host the Atlanta Braves at Busch Memorial Stadium in the 
first game of the five-game National League series. The Redbirds allowed the series to go only 
three games, flying by the Braves 7-0, 4-3 and 6-2, the final game in Atlanta. The playoffs were 
history and the Cardinals were in the World Series.

With the sweep of the Braves, the 'Birds headed into the World Series to take on the American 
League Champs, the Milwaukee Brewers for the first series ever between the rival beer capitals.

In the first game the Brewers embarrassed the Cardinals with a 10-0 trouncing. Milwaukee third 
baseman and leadoff hitter Paul Molitor collected five hits, a World Series record.

Former Cardinal Ted Simmons added to the painful defeat with a home run. The Brewers obtained 
Simmons from the Cards in 1980.

Game two was a better match. Simmons again hit one out of the park but the Redbirds' relief ace 
Bruce Sutter came on in the seventh to get the win, 5-4. The series was tied 1-1.

Still in Busch Stadium, game three went to Willie McGee and the Cardinals by the score of 6-2. 
"I don't know if anybody ever played a World Series game better than he (McGee) did," manager 
Whitey Herzog said in an article in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. McGee made two incredible 
catches, taking home runs away from Molitor and Gorman Thomas. McGee also hit two homers. The 
first with two on base and later, a solo shot.

Going into game four at Milwaukee County Stadium, the Redbirds took the lead heading into the 
seventh inning. But the

(Page 267)

Cards were turned back and lost 7-5. The Brewers scored six unearned runs in the top 
of the seventh.

Game five again went to the Brewers. Milwaukee shortstop Robin Yount was the hero with four 
hits including a home run. The Brewers led the series 3-2.

In game six the Cardinals did to the Brewers what Milwaukee did to the Redbirds in the first 
game. Rookie John Stuper went the distance in the rain-delayed game to oust the Brewers 13-1. 
Herzog's gang tied the series at 3-3 and brought the series back to St. Louis.

A crowd of 55,723 was on hand to watch the final game of the suds series. The 'Birds took a 1-0 
lead in the fourth, and the Brewers tied it in the fifth. Milwaukee got two runs in the sixth, 
but the Cards stormed right back in the bottom half of the inning to score three. The game was 
all but over when Sutter relieved Joaquin Andujar in the top of the eighth. Milwaukee failed to 
score off Sutter in the ninth and St. Louis won the game 6-3, and the series, 4-3. The World 
Champions for the first time in 15 years were the St. Louis Cardinals.

The most valuable player was Cardinal catcher Darrel Porter, who was not outstanding but very 
consistent at and behind the plate. And that was just what Herzog ordered.

The win did not just have St. Louis fans dancing in the aisles, but fans in Kirksville were 
happy too.

Junior Darryl Nitsch had the pleasure of being in Busch Stadium for the final game. "The greatest 
experience sports-wise I've ever had," Nitsch said. A friend called him from St. Louis the day of 
the game and told Nitsch he had a ticket for him and to come on down. Nitsch is from St. Louis 
County and a big Cardinal fan.

"When Sutter threw that last pitch there was a moment of hesitation and then everyone went crazy, 
dancing and having a good time. It was wild," Nitsch said.

Graduate student Terry Metcalf said, "The Cardinals are great and it was exciting. I've been a 
Cardinal fan since I was a one-year-old," he said. Metcalf watched all the games but one. He 
missed one due to a conflicting night class.

After some of the excitement was worn off and the 1982 World Series was history, the Cardinal 
Caravan made a visit to Kirksville in January. Players McGee, Forsch, Tom Herr, pitching coach 
Hub Kittle and director of promotions Marty Hendin arrived at the Moose Lodge to talk to the 
media and sign autographs.

After their appearance at the Lodge, the Caravan toured Kirksville and stopped in at some bars 
such as Too Tails to relax before making the trip home.

Maybe St. Louis can make it to the World Series again next year and give Cardinal fans a chance 
to dance to their theme song, 'Celebration' once more. ECHO Story by William Fish

A new coach and a young squad kept the wrestlers in A holding pattern

Under the guidance of first-year Coach Dave Harms, the wrestlers got off to a slow start, 
but generated a lot of interest and are now ready to establish a new program.

Harms referred to his first season as wrestling coach as a learning experience. "I know more 
about wrestling now," he said. "I thought Coach Harms did a hell of a job," junior Guy Frazier 
said.

Harms took over the wrestling program in August of 1982 after former coach Bill Armstrong 
resigned. Harms said he was offered the job and decided he would enjoy the position.

Under ordinary circumstances, recruiting for the 1982-83 season should have already been 
completed, so Harms had to work with the wrestlers already here. Many times, as many as 
four or five freshman were wrestling for the University, making experience a big problem.

"I thought Couch Harms did a real good job of taking care of the team. Every program has 
to start with the coach," senior Phil Malloy said. Malloy was confident that once Harms 
has a chance to do some of his own recruiting the program here will improve a great deal 
from the record of the 1982-83 season.

The Bulldogs were led by Malloy who qualified for national competition in Fargo, N.D., 
March 5-6.

Malloy won the MIAA Conference Championship in the 190-pound division and finished third 
at the regional championship. Malloy's loss at regionals was to the eventual champion in 
his weight class.

"Phil was the one wrestler that I could usually count on for a sure win. I am confident he 
can finish in the top eight at Nationals," Harms said.

But Malloy did not reach this goal since he was put out of competition after the first two 
rounds of the tournament.

Malloy set an University record against William Jewell College by defeating his opponent 35-2. 
His 35 points were the most scored by Bulldog wrestler in an individual match. The previous 
record of 31 was held by alumnus Mike Duffy in both the 1978-79 and 1979-80 seasons.

Malloy also won more than 20 matches during the season, compiling a record of 22-6.

Malloy said he was working hard to prepare himself for nationals. "I feel that I am doing 
pretty well right now," he said.

Freshman Roger Osweiler wrestled in the 118-pound division and showed good potential, Harms 
said.

Junior Duane Brucker may not have compiled the finest record on the squad, but at times, Harms 
said, "He was great in the wrestling room, but a little hesitant on the mats."

Freshman Jon Eastlick started the season in the 167-pound division, but got down to the 158-pound 
limit and had better success. Harms said he would have been better off if he had started there. 
"Jon wrestled his best in the 158-pound division," he said.

"Guy Frazier was at times the most inspirational wrestler on the team. At times, he was also the 
best wrestler in the room," Harms said.

Senior Alan Isom showed great leadership and stability, Harms said. Isom had to deal with pneumonia 
during the season and never really fully recovered.

The Bulldogs finished with a 4-9 dual record for the season but Harms was not discouraged. The former 
Drake wrestler looks forward to recruitment for next season. "We hope to recruit a few more good kids 
and turn the program around," Harms said.

Next season, Harms said "We will probably do more work on conditioning. It will be a more demanding 
program," he said. "I want us to be a stronger team. Some things will have to change. We can't be 
satisfied if we don't win."

The Bulldogs will also spend more time on fundamentals and moves next season, Harms said. The Bulldogs 
are hoping to have more home meets scheduled to generate more student awareness and interest. ECHO

Grade goals

With hopes of raising the all-Greek grade point average to the level of the all-men's average, 
the Interfraternity Council has developed an academic standards policy.

"I'm optimistic about the long-term effects of the policy," Jim Prewitt, president of Pi Kappa 
Phi, said. "I believe it will make the entire Greek system more appealing and all the organizations 
will grow from it.

"It scares me as far as short-term effects are considered, it may be construed as trying to separate 
the good from the bad," Prewitt said.

One objective of the policy includes providing scholarship funds for the fraternities who meet or 
exceed their own upper standards for two consecutive semesters.

The fee the fraternities pay to IFC for each pledge they take was increased from $4 to $5. "The 
extra dollar will be used to finance the scholarship fund," graduate assistant Mark Schell, IFC 
adviser, said.

According to the IFC policy each fraternity's eligibility is determined by the fraternity's mean 
GPA for the five previous semesters. This original base GPA was figured using the five semesters 
beginning with spring 1980 and will be recomputed every year. Those fraternities whose GPA is .1 
or more above their base GPA for two consecutive semesters are eligible for the IFC scholarship 
providing their base GPA is 2.30 or more and above the all-men's average.

Another objective of the policy provides for punitive action to be taken against fraternities who 
do not meet or exceed their minimum standard for two consecutive semesters.

The policy states that any fraternity whose GPA is .1 or more below its base GPA for two consecutive 
semesters will be put on academic probation. Any fraternity placed on academic probation will be 
prohibited from pledging any student with less than 15 college credit hours or any student with a 
cumulative GPA of less than 2.2. Academic probation will not be applied if the fraternities base 
GPA is above the all-men's average.

"The IFC is to my knowledge the only organization to make public their academic records," Mike Kacir, 
IFC adviser, said. "In doing this we are also opening ourselves up for criticism."

"I like what the policy will do but IFC grades should not be public, printed knowledge," Prewitt said. 
"With this policy each fraternity will know what grades they get and what they have to score to avoid 
penalty. I don't think it is any one else's business how each fraternity is doing individually or 
comparatively with others on campus."

The policy has set up a foundation for a stronger system. "The thrust of the policy is to establish 
academic standards for the Greek system," Kacir said. The IFC is not out to separate the good from 
the bad rather just to make the entire Greek system stronger.

The policy went into effect in the fall semester of 1982. The academic probation program will be 
enforced and scholarship funds distributed no sooner than fall 1983.

The funds will be distributed to individual members as delegated by the fraternities. Each fraternity 
will determine the criteria for distribution to its members. The fraternity will indicate to IFC the 
scholarship recipients and those members' accounts with the University will be credited with the funds, 
Schell said. ECHO Story by John Winkelman

The party's over

Probation is the testing or trial of a person's conduct, character, qualifications or the 
period of such testing. Many Greeks are being put to this test due to academic inadequacies.

The crackdowns by the Interfraternity and Panhellenic councils are the major concerns for 
the Greeks.

"The topic of probation has been brought up more lately, where in the past, IFC was not in 
the position to enforce (its policies). But the academic policy passed has brought 
consequences," Mike Kacir, freshman counselor and IFC adviser, said.

The academic policy states that a person achieving below a 2.0 grade point average cannot 
represent his organization during Greek Week activities and cannot participate in intramurals.

"It's hard to police social probation. I don't want to do it," Kacir said. He said it should 
be the chapter's responsibility, but the system is slowly changing so IFC is gaining more 
authority. "IFC needs to deal more with a situation before it becomes a problem. This will 
happen whenever the system is ready for it."

Chapters have a set of minimum standards. One approach to avoiding social probation is to have 
Greek organizations police themselves. Another approach is the requirement to attend study skills 
lab. The question arising in IFC is which is the best way to approach people. "The best approach 
depends on the individual and what is best for that person. There needs to be a little of both," 
Kacir said.

Some fraternities do not believe in probation. "Nobody's on probation. We have study halls for 
the ones not making grades and academic big brothers," senior Gary Stobbs, president of Phi 
Lambda Chi, said. "We don't prohibit anyone from participation, we just add to their burdens." 
Stobbs said if you make someone go to study hall, they have to study, but if you take away their 
privileges, they rebel.

"To be active, you have to maintain a grade point of 2.2," sophomore Greg Brown, president of 
Sigma Tau Gamma, said. "We have internal motivation and pride to push us."

Some Greeks feel individual social probation is necessary for the betterment of their 
organizations.

"This encourages them to do better, but it's up to the individual to make of it what they want," 
junior Mike Regan, president of Delta Chi, said.

"Probation is to better the members. Scholarship is our major goal," junior Bruce Schonhoff, 
president of Alpha Kappa Lambda, said. "If a guy's grade point is below a 2.0, they go inactive 
until they raise their grades. They also can't attend parties. It makes them think more about 
grades."

Panhellenic has no uniform policy. Each sorority determines its own policy. This year 26 percent 
earned less than a 2.0 GPA.

"The grades have been lower this year than last," Vonnie Nichols, director of student activities 
and Panhellenic Council adviser, said. "We have a committee working on education. We are trying 
to address the entire situation." Some concerns of the committee are raising GPA qualifications 
for rushees to 2.5, the mixer program, pledge books and signatures, study skills lab and possibly 
a Greek honor roll.

"I see changes taking place where women are evaluating their different choices," Nichols said.

Some sorority policies have more consequences than that of the fraternities.

Probation for the members of Delta Zeta means members lose their voting privileges, they cannot 
hold any offices and their active pins are taken away.

"The ones on probation are separated out from the others, so everybody knows who they are. This 
is so everybody can motivate and encourage them," junior Lynn Schafer, president of Delta Zeta, 
said. "This helps the ones on probation realize just how important grades are. Taking someone's 
pin away really hurts them bad."

"We started a star system which gives the women an incentive to go to classes. If a woman goes to 
all her classes that day she receives a star for the day. This has helped improve grades," junior 
Brenda Nunnelly, member of Alpha Sigma Tau, said.

Sigma Kappas on probation can't vote, hold an office or attend social functions. "It's hard when 
everybody is out and you're sitting home," senior Karen McBee, president of Sigma Kappa, said. 
"We don't consider probation a punishment, but an incentive to work."

Although the Greek system may have its problems, Kacir said, "You have to work with it and you 
have to support it." ECHO Story by Becky Banzhaf

A damp good time

Spring rains and high winds chilled and dampened everything in Kirksville except Greek spirit 
during Olympus '82. The weather caused some compromises during Greek Week but it didn't prevent 
the fraternities and sororities from celebrating the annual event.

Greek Week officially began with the Greek development conference on March 27. The conference 
was an opportunity for the leaders of Greek organizations to exchange ideas to improve each 
group, Mike Kacir, Interfraternity Council adviser, said.

Coronation of the Greek Week king and queen was held March 29 in Baldwin Auditorium. Each 
fraternity selected a candidate to represent them in the king competition and each sorority 
sent a queen candidate. The organizations were given one ballot for each active member. The 
sororities selected junior Rich Kielczewski, member of Pi Kappa Phi, to reign as Greek King 
and the fraternities chose senior Sherry Doctorian, member of Alpha Sigma Alpha, to be the 
Greek Week Queen.

In the East-West All-Star basketball game March 30, the fraternities on the East side of 
campus defeated the all-stars from the West side. An All-Star game matching sororities 
against fraternity little sisters resulted in victory for the sorority women. Also on 
that Tuesday night, the torch walk started at the Eternal Flame in front of the Kirk 
Memorial and ended with a get-together at Theta Psi.

The Greek Alcohol Interest Network sponsored a roast of Terry Smith, dean of students, March 31. 
Smith said that he had never been to a roast before but had a pretty good idea what would go on. 
"I really enjoyed myself. It was something unique and all for fun."

Variety Night did produce a variety of acts this year. "We didn't have a theme this year for 
Variety Night," junior Jim Carroll, co-chairman of Greek Week and member of Tau Kappa Epsilon, 
said. "The organizations were able to perform what they wanted." Pi Kap took first place for 
fraternities with its "Greekend Update" skit, and Delta Zeta took first among the sororities 
with "Greek Hospital". ASA and Alpha Gamma Rho took the second place trophies. Sigma Phi Epsilon 
and Alpha Sigma Tau took third place honors.

The carnival, "Olympus '82", was to be held in the Mall of the Student Union Building April 2, 
but the spring weather forced a change. The rain moved the carnival into Kirk Gym where 
fraternities and sororities set up booths. Each organization paid $10 to set up a booth and 
the money, $200, was donated to the Frederick Rollins Sheltered Workshop. "We had a lot more 
participating than expected for having the carnival inside," junior Katie Olsen, Greek Week 
co-chairman and Sigma Sigma Sigma member, said. "The radio (KRXL) was good publicity and the 
7-Up

BEAVER HUNTING is the theme of the Alpha Kappa Lambda skit on Variety Night. Hunters included 
sophomore Phil Schwend, senior Bob Baronovic, and sophomores Garry Alcorn and Bruce Abbott.

distributor (sponsor of the event) helped immensely."

The weather caused the cancellation of some Greek Olympics events April 3. High winds chilled the 
participants but didn't stop the spirit of the Greek games. Some of the events that were held 
included the car cram, chariot races, chugging relays, an egg toss and a kite flying contest. DZ 
and Alpha Kappa Lambda took first place in the Olympics. Pi Kap and Phi Kappa Theta tied for second 
in the fraternity Olympics competition. Sigma Kappa and Tri Sig took second and third respectively 
among the sororities.

A hog roast at the AGR house followed the Olympics. Then the Greeks crammed into McMain Auction Barn 
for the annual Greek bash. The overall winners of Greek Week were announced at the bash. Pi Kap and 
DZ were first place winners for Greek Week. AKL and ASA won the second place trophies with Phi Kap 
and Tri Sig in third place.

"Greek Week is held to make the community aware that there are Greek organizations and that they are 
doing well," Kacir said. "It allows the community to be aware of some of the activities that the Greek 
organizations do during the year. Basically though, Greek Week is a chance to bring everyone 
together." ECHO

Home is where the house is

A man's home is his castle ... a place to kick off his shoes, put up his feet, and enjoy 
life. Fraternity houses serve that purpose for many Greek men, as well as being a place to 
hold meetings, parties, and carry on the brotherhood.

One of the major purposes of a fraternity is to recruit new members. To do this the fraternity 
must recruit new pledges each semester. The house serves as an asset in this case. "Because our 
house is one of the largest on campus (housing 21 members) it does serve as a calling card 
during rush," junior Bruce Schonhoff, Alpha Kappa Lambda president, said. However, he did 
stress that the house wasn't one of AKL's major assets. Freshman Pat McFarland, AKL pledge, 
said, "I don't think the house affected my decision to join AKL at all, it was more the people 
who live there."

Sophomore Dan Boehm, Phi Lambda Chi pledge, said, "None of the houses really impressed me during 
rush, but I like the people."

Another major aspect of living in a fraternity house is the cost. Financially each fraternity is 
different; they charge rent costs to their live-in members. Junior Mark Howard, Sigma Tau Gamma 
house resident, said, "It's a lot cheaper than the dorms." Howard said that although rents may 
vary, on the average it is a lot cheaper than the dorms.

Upkeep on a fraternity house is as varied as its members. Howard said, "On our house alone we 
spend from $1,200 to $1,400 a month. That includes rent, utilities, etc. It varies from month 
to month."

Living in a fraternity house has its advantages and disadvantages. Sophomore Rodney Adkison, 
Delta Chi house manager, said, "It puts you closer to fraternity life. You always know what's 
going on all of the time. Of course there are more people in and out all the time, and it's 
noisier than usual. But it's not that bad." Adkison said he feels you can get work done in the 
fraternity house, however, it is up to the individual.

"You give up a little privacy, but there's always someone to talk to, study with, and there's 
always something to do," Howard said.

Not all of the fraternities have houses. This would seem to put a damper on the fraternity's 
morale. "Having a house doesn't matter as long as you like the frat," freshman Bob Grenko, 
Sigma Phi Epsilon pledge, said. Sigma Phi Epsilon is the newest fraternity on campus, and 
although they don't have a house, "We're confident we'll get one soon," Grenko said.

Dave Lascu, Sigma Phi Epsilon adviser, said without a house, the fraternity must use classrooms 
for general meetings and rent facilities for parties.

But, not having a house doesn't seem to affect a fraternity's ability to draw pledges. Sigma Phi 
Epsilon signed 13 pledges the fall semester.

"If it was the same group of guys, it would make no difference if they had a house or not," 
freshman Mitch Krueger, Pi Kappa Phi pledge, said.

There are a few requirements to live in each of the fraternity houses. These requirements are set 
by the fraternity. Most fraternities require you to be an active member before moving into the 
fraternity house. AKL uses a point system with the members getting points for the number of semesters 
in the fraternity, class status and other activities. Then if a member has enough points and there 
is an empty room in the house, they are allowed to move in. "We don't have a problem filling the 
house," Schonoff said.

Alpha Gamma Rho houses both pledges and active members in their house. Sophomore Rick Davis, Ag Rho 
secretary, said six freshmen lived in the house during the fall semester. Ag Rho is the only 
fraternity house with University approved housing which allows them to house freshmen. Because 
the Ag Rhos have a curfew, housemother and serve meals, the University approved their housing 
Davis said.

Living in a fraternity house isn't all partying, it's just another form of housing for students. 
It can be fun or a real problem. Schonoff said, "It depends on what you want it to be. It's what 
you put into it." ECHO

A house to call their own

The house hunting is over for Sigma Phi Epsilon which, after a year long search, acquired a 
fraternity house. Since January the fraternity has been renting the house and barring any 
financing problems will close the purchase agreement in May.

"Everyone is excited about the house," junior John Holtrup, Sig Ep president, said.

The fraternity has functioned without a house since it was chartered by the University in 1981. 
"There were some communication problems without a house, and they had difficulty finding meeting 
places. We need to establish the fraternity as a No. 1 fraternity offering a central location," 
adviser Dave Lascu, director of Dobson Hall, said.

Sig Ep, the newest fraternity on campus, has 60 active members and took the largest spring pledge 
class with 27.

Holtrup said the new house was part of the reason they took such a large pledge class. "Some of 
the guys we were rushing weren't sure if they wanted to join a fraternity or not. We impressed 
them with how we've kept the house so nice."

Junior Todd Holcomb, Sig Ep pledge, said he was impressed with the house, but still would have 
pledged if they did not have a house.

"We want to keep the house neat and we want the community to view it as a very positive situation," 
Lascu said. "The men are real concerned that the house stays in good condition and they want to 
prove that they can have a beautiful house."

With those thoughts in mind some guidelines were set up for use of the house. No cigarette smoking 
or tobacco chewing is allowed, and beverages are banned from the upstairs living area. The men have 
also established quiet hours.

"It'll keep the house nicer, and it's a pretty nice house," freshman Jeff Hibbs said.

The men in the house pay room and board to the fraternity, and each evening they have a family-style 
dinner. "We will eventually have a houseparent; that will take a couple of years to establish," Lascu 
said.

The Sig Eps are financing the purchase with loans from the national chapter and donations. If all 
goes well, they will take possession of the house at 1309 S. Florence, May 1.

After the fraternity takes possession of the house, changes are planned to make it accomodate a 
larger percentage of the membership. "There are 15 guys living in the house and when we have the 
house in our name we will convert it so it will house 25 to 30 men," Lascu said.

To allow more men living space, some renovating will be done. "I wouldn't say we're spending an 
abundance for renovating it," sophomore Scott Wisecarver said. The bathroom will be enlarged, bunk 
beds built and a second water heater installed.

Hot water has been a problem. "It seems that everyone living here has a 9:30 class and waits until 
nine to get in the shower," Holtrup said. Most of the renovations will have to wait until they 
take possession of the house, Wisecarver said.

ON THE HEARTH, sophomore Dru Hise takes a seat in the basement of Sigma Phi Epsilon's new house 
during its spring smoker. Hise was attending his first smoker as an active.

GATHERED around the table juniors Brian Neubauer and Doug Waibel socialize at a Sigma Phi Epsilon 
smoker. The smoker was the first party held in the Sig Ep's new house.

AT HOME for the first time since its formation on campus, Sigma Phi Epsilon began renting this 
house in January. The fraternity plans to finalize arrangements for the purchase of the house 
by May 1.
 
(Page 281)

For some of the men the house is an opportunity for privacy. "Many of the men that live 
in the house came from residence halls, so the idea of privacy isn't hard for them to get 
used to, but the ones who moved in from other apartments are feeling the crunch," Lascu said.

Although the living situation is cramped now, the men are glad to be in the new house. "The 
place I lived in off campus was a basic dump. This (the new house) is ten times better than 
before," sophomore Ed Warren said.

Standards for living in the house have not been established yet Lascu said, but some of the 
men are looking forward to living there, "It's a nice house with a lot of good guys. There's 
a lot of space you can move around in," Holcomb said.

The purchase of the house will establish the Sig Eps as a part of the campus, Lascu said. "By 
getting a house we have solidified the fact that we are here to stay."

Besides providing a living and meeting place, the house will also provide a place to party. "It 
is better to have place to party instead of renting a place everytime we have a function," Holtrup 
said. The house is for private parties only; places are rented for major parties.

The Sig Ep house is located behind the Phi Sigma Epsilon house which could be confusing to visitors 
not aware of the closeness of the two fraternities. "They've just got to look for the big sign in 
front of the house. It's a dead giveaway," Hibbs said.

So the search is over and the men look ahead to the purchase, the renovation and the entertaining. 
"The fraternity is really excited about the acquisition of the house," Lascu said. "It can do 
nothing but benefit the entire NMSU Greek system. It will be a positive influence." ECHO

Greek guide

Free advice is usually worth only what you pay for it. But in the case of fraternity and 
sorority advisers, their advice makes them responsible for the Greek organization's actions 
and ties them more closely to the group.

According to University policy all organiztions must have an adviser, Vonnie Nichols, director 
of student activities, said.

The adviser serves as the official liaison between the University and the individual organization. 
In addition advisers must attend business meetings, keep a record of financial transactions and 
counsel the organization's members.

The University makes only one rule for an organization's selection of an adviser. The person must 
be a member of the faculty or staff.

The organization can then make the choice of adviser in the manner it chooses.

Sigma Kappa looks for an adviser who will continue to advise the sorority as long as possible, 
junior Mary McFarland said. "They are considered a part of the organization. They become 
initiated members."

In the selection of an adviser the sorority does not look for any particular charactistics, but 
it does look for a member of the faculty who can get along with a group.

"An adviser is usually invited to a gathering where she and members can visit with each other 
before committing herself," McFarland said.

Carol Friesen, temporary instructor of home economics, was asked to advise the sorority by a 
student in one of her foods classes. "After two weeks of class she asked me if I would be 
willing to consider the position of faculty adviser for Sigma Kappa," Friesen said.

Friesen considered the request and agreed.

Some Greek organizations are rarely faced with selecting a new adviser. Ruth Towne, professor of 
history, has served as the adviser to Delta Zeta since 1953.

"It still means as much to her as it did when she was an active member of Delta Zeta," senior Kelli 
King said. "She keeps up with everything we do; she advises us in every step we take."

When a selection is necessary, sometimes the choice of adviser seems to be only a logical step.

Les Dunseith, staff assistant in public relations, said it was a natural step for him to be chosen 
as Delta Chi's adviser. "I was an undergraduate member of Delta Chi, and at approximately the same 
time I graduated and went to work for the University, our old adviser decided he did not have time 
for the position. Rather than trying to find someone who would be unfamiliar with the group, I 
assumed the position," Dunseith said.

Nichols credits the advisers with the smooth operation of the fraternities and sororities. "They 
are incredibly important to the success of the organization. The sorority that has a good adviser 
pretty much has got to be a good organization."

Towne's devotion impresses the members of DZ. "She has devoted her whole life to Delta Zeta," 
King said.

The devotion of Towne and other fraternity and sorority advisers is entirely voluntary. The 
advisers participate in fraternity and sorority activities in their spare time and receive no 
compensation from the University.

"I think that if you point out that advisers do this on their own time, this would make them 
(the students) appreciate their adviser more," Friesen said.

Although the selection process is different for each Greek organization, all of the advisers 
have legal responsibilities as well as advisory duties.

The University provides an information sheet to advisers which warns them of their legal 
liability as an adviser to a chartered organization. The sheet recommends that advisers be 
aware that, although no laws specifically apply to advisers, it can be inferred that advisers 
can be held responsible for any action of the organziation they advise, intentional or 
unintentional.

"I am liable for what Sigma Kappa does," Friesen said. "I think it is something very important 
that students in fraternitities and sororities realize what a hot tub the advisers are under."

Both the members of the Greek organizations and their advisers think they gain from the 
interaction between them.

"Working with the Delta Chi group as an adviser keeps me in touch with what students are 
thinking," Dunseith said. "I would recommend that more faculty did it just for that fact. 
You have to understand your students to work with them. Without the contact of the 
fraternity, I would be isolated in a way."

The members are also helped by having an adviser available to them. "He (Dunseith) has 
helped me when I have talked to him when I had a problem,'' sophomore Randy Barton said. 
"He had advice and seemed like he cared." Sophomore Brad Peterson said he appreciated Phi 
Lambda Chi's adviser Tom McDonald, temporary instuctor of business administration, because 
he "is always around when we need to talk to him."

Advisers are also impressed with the Greek organizations' ability to run their meetings 
and the entire group smoothly.

"What impressed me most is that the leaders are so capable," Friesen said. "I am just 
impressed with the way they can conduct meetings and get things done."

The hours of work and worry eventually result in an organization which shows signs of an 
adviser's touch. ECHO

A CLOSE RELATIONSHIP exists between Ruth Towne, professor of history and Delta Zeta adviser, 
and the sorority. Junior Julie Moore consults Towne on the progress of the new pledge class.

BETWEEN OBLIGATIONS of his busy schedule, graduate student Dave Lascu enjoys a walk on campus. 
Lascu divides his time between being Sigma Phi Epsilon adviser, Dobson Hall director and a 
student.

Ground breakers

Groundbreaking ceremonies signal the beginning of construction. From this point a foundation 
is constructed and a building erected on the foundation.

Two organizations broke ground in attempts to build the foundation of Greek organizations. One 
seemed well on its way to beginning the frame of its building while the other still struggled 
to find a firm foundation.

"We wanted to add something to the Greek system," sophomore Jerry Boling, member of Lambda Chi 
Alpha, said. The fraternity established itself on campus in the fall and quickly took strides 
toward gaining a charter as a Greek organization.

The group got its start on campus through two students who had been members of the fraternity at 
other universities. "After experiencing what Lambda Chi was, I saw that other fraternities didn't 
have what I wanted," senior Drew Shepard said.

Shepard, who was an associate member at Southwest Missouri State University, and junior Pat 
McCammon, who was an active member at Missouri Western State College, organized the interest 
group with almost 30 members in the fall. By the spring the group was down to about 22 members, 
but the founders were still optimistic.

"We have good potential for growth. If we thought we were going to fall on our face and drag our 
name through the mud, we wouldn't have started," Shepard said.

Lambda Chi Alpha is one of the youngest national fraternities and is the third largest. "Our 
national supports us lOO percent," Shepard said. "Anything we ask for we get."

With the support of the national organization, Lambda Chi began the more than 18 month long 
chartering process.

In February the organization petitioned the Student Senate and received its temporary charter.

Even before the University recognized the organization, the national chapter offered its support 
as did other area chapters. "Right now, in the eyes of our national we are a chapter," Shepard 
said.

The national chapter made plans to come to the University to officially recognize the organization 
as a colony on April 6-16.

"All of the chapters in the area wanted to come help us (form a colony)," McCammon said. "We almost 
had a fight on our hands."

The members of the organizations said they thought the fraternity had something unique to offer. 
"I rushed other fraternities, but they didn't have what I needed," Boling said.

Another of Lambda Chi Alpha's drawing cards is its national's no hazing policy. New members of 
the fraternity are educated about the fraternity, history and national officers. New members 
are not called pledges but rather are considered associate members. The education period usually 
ranges 6-8 weeks long, but sometimes members are not activated until a semester later.

Although the number of members decreased between the fall and spring LXA members said to some 
extent it was a weeding out of the less favorable. "The more and more I looked, the more and 
more I liked," Boling.

Lambda Chi members McCammon and Shepard said the education stresses members should become better 
people through it. "We are religious-based, as far as our principle rituals come from the Bible, 
specifically the New Testament," McCammon said. "Everything brought from the Bible is an attempt 
to make us better people."

The men said they are receiving support from individuals on campus, but only the Women 
for Greek Expansion have offered any official group response to their move toward establishment 
as a colony. "I don't see any major stumbling block that would hold us back," Shepard said.

"It helps when you have a link with the national," McCammon said.

The Women for Greek Expansion started the year without a link to a national sorority. The plans 
of the group which started as an interest group for Delta Gamma ran into some difficulty when 
the national chose not to include the University in its expansion plans.

Senior Peggy Faupel and junior Barb Wolf organized the group to form another sorority on campus. 
"We thought there should be an alternative offered, a different type of a sorority," Faupel said.

IN ATTENDANCE at the weekly meeting freshmen Meredith Waters, Julia Akins and Stacy Vance dicuss 
Greek Week plans. Attendance at 75 percent of the meetings was required.

SECOND IN COMMAND junior Geralyn Clark, vice president of the Women of Greek Expansion, listens 
as senior Peggy Faupel, president, discusses a motion.

ON TAP, bar facilities in the house were looked over by Lambda Chi Alpha. LXA received its 
temporary charter in Febuary. The next step for the fraternity is colonization.

The women originally organized as a Delta Gamma interest group but were forced to change 
their name and their plans. "They (DG) decided not to start a chapter because there were 
not enough alumni in the area, and it didn't fit into their expansion plans," Faupel said.

The women reorganized as the Women for Greek Expansion and obtained a temporary charter as 
a group interested in Greek expansion. "We decided there was more than one national sorority 
in the world; we just had to stick together."

Although the group has not been successful in finding a national sorority, they have made 
other advances, especially in terms of recruitment and service.

The group had approximately 40 members in the spring. "The numbers grow but there is a big 
turnover rate. It's like a big rotation. We keep getting new members and growing, but some 
older members decide they don't have enough time and drop out," Faupel said.

In the spring the group had the possibility of affiliating with Alpha Omicron Pi, but the 
national did not encourage the group to expect any response before the fall.

At a meeting after a representative from Alpha Omicron Pi had visited campus, adviser to 
the group Barb McMasters, academic adviser, told the women to consider the group as a whole. 
"You really need to start looking at impressing these sororities," McMasters said. "I just 
want each of you to do your very best for the group as a whole."

Faupel said most of the campus reaction to WGE has been favorable. "It's been a 90 percent 
positive reaction. The 10 percent was mostly at the beginning. I think there was a lot of 
fear we'd be taking their members."

Faupel will be graduating, but she said there are things working in the organization's favor. 
"I think now there are things in our favor, the experience of this year. Now we know where 
we've been."

"Before, we were thrown into it blind," she said.

Despite its setbacks in finding an affiliation the group continues to hold philanthropic projects 
for the Chariton Valley Learning Center. "It's really neat to have a local philanthropic that you 
can see the results and get hugs from it," Faupel said.

WGE has not given up its search for affiliation and LXA will soon have colony status. Both are 
attempting to build firm foundations in the Greek community with varying amounts of success, but 
each continues to be a groundbreaker. ECHO

Bond-less

The Interfraternity and Panhellenic councils have always played a large part in making 
policies, decisions and suggestions concerning Greek organizations. However, there is a 
portion of the Greek community which does not fall under these governing bodies' 
jurisdiction. This year they made an attempt to benefit from the idea of sharing opportunities 
of a cooperative organization.

Black Greek organizations, with the help of the Association of Black Collegians, tried to 
organize the nationally chartered Black Panhellenic Council here.

Senior Dwyane Smith, president of ABC, said, "Black Panhellenic is a national organization 
comprised of the eight national black Greek organizations. We (ABC) think a Panhellenic will 
also help to bring the black Greeks into a common bond."

Smith said there had been talk of starting a Black Panhellenic in previous years, but no 
serious efforts had been made to formulate it.

However, in the fall of 1982, attempts were made to start the process. "This year, ABC

campus.

NOTICES AND NEWSCLIPPINGS begin to fill the Delta Sigma Theta bulletin board, as senior Cheryl 
Freeman adds yet another notice. The board provides information for sorority members.
 
(Page 289)

decided to get the ball rolling by inviting Matthew Tyler, an instuctor at Columbia College 
and previous Panhellenic adviser, to answer questions about a Black Panhellenic and hopefully 
help write up a constitution that will provide guidelines for a Black Panhellenic to go into 
effect once the organization is chartered by the University," Smith said.

The black Greeks wanted a separate Panhellenic Council for several reasons.

Senior Chantay Smith, Delta Sigma Theta vice president, said, "Our sorority belongs to a national 
Panhellenic Council that consists of eight black Greek organizaions. In the past we have participated 
as an affiliated member with the NMSU Panhellenic. One reason why we do not fully participate is 
because our rules do not coincide. ABC has no authority to govern black Greek organizations, and 
they want a council who would have the authority to govern black Greeks."

The attempt to organize the Black Panhellenic failed. "The University is too small," senior Larry 
Jackson, member of Alpha Phi Alpha, said.

"They (black Greeks) have taken it up with the administration, and they (the administration) said 
there are not enough blacks up here (to validate the forming of a Black Panhellenic)," he said. ECHO

WITH CARE, senior Lisa Ryals pins a nametag on sophomore rushee Lisa Howe before a Sigma 
Sigma Sigma rush party. The party, held in the Georgian Room, followed a Hawaiian theme.

ONE-TO-ONE freshman Susan Till and senior Lori Bergthold enjoy a joke during a Sigma Kappa 
rush party. Rho Chis must make sure the rush groups get to the parties on time.

Me and my R.C.

R.C. No, it's not the soft drink, it's the initials for Rho Chi, the name for sorority formal 
rush counselors.

Rho Chis are sorority women who serve as guides and counselors for rushees during the formal 
rush week in the fall. "They're responsible for the mental health and welfare of the rushee," 
Vonnie Nichols, director of student activities and Panhellenic Council adviser, said. They 
stimulate and answer questions the women may have about the sororities, she said.

Every year each of the five sororities selects three members to apply for Rho Chi. From the 15 
women who apply, 10 are chosen. The executive and rush committees of Panhellenic select at least 
one member from each sorority but not always two, Nichols said.

The application the women fill out deals with such items as why they want the job, their experience 
in the Greek system, and whether or not they have been through formal rush. Nichols said usually 
older members apply. "We look for a person who is empathetic and wants to make rush a good 
experience."

Junior Cathy Colton, Panhellenic Council vice president in charge of rush, said a major part of a 
R. C.'s job is to make sure rushees get to parties on time and in the right order. "The time factor 
is really important. Each sorority plans on having the rushee at their parties for a certain amount 
of the time. They are also there to counsel rushees and field questions about the system," Colton 
said.

"We try to have a workshop prior to formal rush for the Rho Chis," Colton said. At this workshop 
the women go over the schedule of the parties and discuss sample topics and hypothetical questions 
a rushee may ask, she said.

R. C.s also play an important role in that they are the only women who can talk to the
 
(Page 291)

rushees during the silence period. Silence period begins when formal rush week starts. It 
is a time period in which the sorority members are not allowed to talk to rushees outside of 
the parties. R.C.s can schedule specific times they will be available to talk to rushees, 
Nichols said. "Contact is initiated by the rushees," Colton said.

Rho Chis attend the first two nights of informal parties with their rushees to see what goes 
on at each party. Sometimes girls drop out after informal parties and the Rho Chis can help 
analyze problems, Colton said.

By attending other parties you can also see weaknesses in your own parties, Rho Chi Jo Ellen 
Johns, graduate student and Alpha Sigma Tau alumna, said.

"My primary job, I feel, was to know where and what they (the rushees) were going to do. I was 
asked more procedural questions about the program than anything else," Johns said. She said she 
felt as though answering questions was a secondary role of the Rho Chi.

"We had to lead the girls around the open house at Brewer Hall and to the rest of the parties, 
Rho Chi Anne Bernard, sophomore and Sigma Sigma Sigma member, said.

"They wanted to know what was going on," Bernard said. Bernard said that rushees didn't ask her 
many questions because they could just ask the women at the parties.

Another facet of the program is that the rushees are not to know which sorority their R.C. belongs 
to. "I feel it doesn't matter if the rushee knows what sorority the R.C. belongs to," Johns said.

If they want to find out the sorority she belongs to it is probably easy, Bernard said. Nichols 
said that the rushees feel more comfortable to ask questions about the sororities if they don't 
know the R.C.'s sorority. "It takes some of the pressure off," Bernard said.

"I found my Rho Chi to be very helpful, when I wasn't sure what to do or where to go I could 
always call her," freshman Sue Xander, Alpha Sigma Alpha, said. "It was helpful to ask them 
questions we had amongst ourselves," she said.

"I didn't have many questions because I had a friend in a sorority," Michele Eckert, Delta Zeta, 
said. "For the most part, they were helpful for everybody."

Nichols said the program works well now, but it has the potential to work better. ECHO

Whether a Greek organization is required or chooses to raise money for a charity, 
they all make Noble contributions

Parties, pranks and pledge books are no longer the most talked about activities of the 
social fraternities and sororities on campus. Charity fund-raising projects are becoming 
just as common a topic.

Any idea from the Sigma Sigma Sigma balloon sales to the Tau Kappa Epsilon Kegroll has 
been used by Greeks to earn money for their charities.

Although most fraternities and sororities are encouraged, and some are required by their 
national chapters to do a philanthropic project, the size of the project and the amount 
of effort put into them is the decision of the individual chapter.

One of the largest ventures of the year was a 100-hour push-a-thon. The event sponsored 
by Pi Kappa Phi was an effort to raise money to purchase play units for the severely 
handicapped (PUSH), a national charity project for the fraternity.

The push-a-thon started the morning of Oct. 20 with University President Charles McClain 
pushing the wheelchair around campus for the first ten minutes. The Pi Kaps shared the 
responsibility of pushing the wheelchair for the remaining 99 hours and 50 minutes. Although 
PUSH is a national project for Pi Kaps, chapters are not required to participate.

Junior Darryl Beach, PUSH chairman, said, "It was good for the fraternity because they all 
pulled together for a central goal and developed a lot of pride in the chapter."

The positive publicity, Beach said, was also beneficial since both the campus and community 
gave media coverage to the project. During the drive the Pi Kaps raised more than $1,400 for 
its charity.

This year was the first time the Pi Kaps have raised money for PUSH, but several of the 
service projects sponsored by Greeks have become annual events.

The Delta Chi 10,000 meter Run and TKE Kegroll have been two of the more popular projects 
since other Greeks are able to participate and compete against each other.

The Kegroll is an annual event for many TKE chapters, although all chapters do not raise 
money for the same charity. The TKEs have been rolling the keg from Kirksville to Edina 
every year since 1978 to raise money for Cerebral Palsy. The event is actually a fundraiser 
for the TKE pledge class. The pledges solicit donations but have the help of the actives 
for the roll.

"We can instill brotherhood in our own fraternity as well as raise money for an organization," 
junior David Wood, TKE member, said.

The fall of 1982 marked the third annual 10,000 meter run sponsored cooperatively by Delta Chi 
and Tindall Beverage. For an entry fee, anyone in the community could compete for prizes and 
awards in several categories at the finish line.

Delta Chi raised about $80 in the event and donated the proceeds to the Chamber of Commerce 
for its United Way campaign.

The Tri Sig balloon selling is an annual event for every Tri Sig chapter. The philanthropical 
project raises money for the Robby Page Memorial, and the local chapter usually raises about 
$500.

The sorority members sell chances on the balloons. The name of each donator is tied to a balloon, 
and the balloons are released at the annual Parents. Day football game. When a balloon is found, 
the finder is requested by a tag on the balloon to contact the chapter with information concerning 
where the balloon was

A STROLL around the Quadrangle and campus for sophomores Sharon Mitsin and Greg Shives helped 
raise over $1,400 for play units for the severely handicapped. PUSH was sponsored by Pi Kappa 
Phi.

found. After four weeks, the balloon reported at the farthest distance from Kirksville is 
determined to be the winner. The donator and the finder win prizes.

The Tri Sigs sell most of the balloons to students. "They (the students) feel like if they 
buy a balloon and it goes the farthest, they win a prize, and that makes it worth it," 
junior Barb Schoenherr said.

The oldest of the campus service projects is the Alpha Kappa Lambda teeter-tottering which 
has been held for seven or eight years, sophomore Cliff Sachs, AKL service project 
chairman, said.

This year the AKLs and Delta Zeta teeter-tottered for an entire week in October to raise money 
for the Jaycees to purchase handicapped playground equipment for parks in Kirksville.

Each year the AKLs choose a different community betterment project and ask a sorority to help 
them teeter-totter. "Everyone participated. We had to have everyone or we couldn't have done 
it," Sachs said.

"It was really good for us because you feel good about yourself when you're helping others," 
sophomore Denise Sorrell, DZ member, said.

While the Pi Kaps and AKLs favored large projects focused over a short time period, many service 
projects are continued on an on-going basis.

Sigma Kappa adopted a little sister who has leukemia. The sorority sends the girl letters and 
gifts. In addition, they work with local senior citizens throughout the year.

Phi Kappa Theta and Alpha Tau Omega have delivered Meals-on-Wheels to shut-ins. Contributions 
to Cerebral Palsy, Muscular Dystrophy, the United Way, the Heart Fund and other charities are 
regular activities for all Greek organizations whether they have a special project or do 
neighborhood canvassing.

Sophomore Jamie Webster, DZ member, said, "We all have fun and service projects are good for 
getting the sorority all together." ECHO

Little brothers and sisters add branches to fraternity and sorority family trees and 
create the Next generation

Just as a real family can be around for moral support and building traditions, pledge families 
in fraternities and sororities serve much the same purpose. Although they are referred to by 
many different names, the families consist of at least one active member and one pledge.

The pledges are commonly called little brothers and sisters, or pledge sons and daughters. The 
actives in turn are called big brothers, big sisters, sirs or pledge mothers.

"A big brother helps his little brother to learn about the fraternity and helps him through pledge 
season," junior Rodney Adkinson, Delta Chi member, said.

Depending on the individuals involved, the pair can become very close. "Sometimes a big and a little 
sis can really grow close during pledge season because they do spend a lot of time together, and 
sometimes they stay close all through life. A lot of times when a girl gets married, she will have 
her little sis be an attendent in the wedding, because they have stayed so close," senior Susan 
Schiefelbein, Alpha Sigma Tau member, said. "The active member wants to help the pledge feel welcome 
and a part of the group, and having your own personal little sis is a good way to do it," she said.

"Having a little sis makes you feel closer to the pledge class as a whole. She is someone that you 
know you can turn to if you have problems and she knows that she can come to you. Little sisses are 
very special," junior Kelly Murphy, member of Sigma Kappa, said.

A big brother, big sister, sir, or pledge mom might be someone that the pledge was familiar with during 
rush, but most actives are willing to be a big brother or sister to any pledge. Freshman Sherry White, 
Delta Zeta member, said their pledge mothers are usually someone that they were close to during rush. 
"A pledge mother can be a model or example for her daughter," White said.

The big and little brothers and sisters are chosen in a variety of ways. Junior Kelly James, Alpha 
Sigma Alpha pledge, and her big sis sophomore, Linda Heimdal, became big and little sister by choice. 
Alpha Sigma Alpha members list three possible little sisters; new pledges do the same, and then they 
are matched up.

AST and DZ pledges have two or three days to guess who their big sis or pledge mother is. Alpha Sigma 
Taus surprise their new little sister with a rose sent anonymously.

Sigma Kappas welcome their new little sis with gifts. "When you find out who your little sis is, you 
send her a violet plant and you get a

freshman Cindy Mueller to skit practice. The women are members of the same family.

lavalier for her, and it is kept in the family then," Murphy said.

Some fraternities follow a similar process. Pi Kappa Phi members choose their little 
brothers, and if there is a conflict, the member that was initiated into the chapter 
first gets his choice. Alpha Gamma Rho, however, takes a different approach; big and 
little brothers are matched at random.

"There are no problems with brothers not getting along with this method, because most 
everybody in the fraternity gets along or they would not be there in the first place," 
senior Mitch Whittle, AGR member; said.

Sigma Tau Gamma follows yet another procedure. "The rush chairman decides what sirs the 
pledges have," senior Evan Beatty, member of Sig Tau, said. "Who he decides on depends 
on things like how much the active member contributed to rush, and if the active member 
knows the pledge personally."

Beatty said, "If the rush chairman thinks that a pledge might need a little extra help 
getting through pledge season, he makes sure that he gets an active who has been a good 
sir in the past."

Several traditions have evolved from the big and little sister and brother pairings. Phi 
Lambda Chi pledges make a paddle for their big brother, and in turn receive a shirt. Delta 
Zeta pledge daughters present their pledge mothers with a paddle and receive a sweatshirt 
in return.

"The sir usually buys the pledge a shirt; sometimes a jacket or sweatshirt, and takes him 
out to eat after he pledges and when he goes active," Beatty said.

Another tradition is a special turnabout day, when the actives and pledges switch roles, 
and a common tradition is for the active member to treat their little brother or sister 
to supper when pledge season is over.

Gift-giving has become a tradition for Sigma Kappa. "Usually you give your little sis a 
birthday gift and something for Christmas, and of course you get something for her when 
she goes active," Murphy said.

A long standing tradition is to keep a record of family trees. Senior Tim Wilson, Phi 
Sigma Epsilon member, has a record of his sirs since the fraternity was first founded. 
Senior Theresa Walker, Alpha Sigma Tau member, retraced the family trees of all the 
members back to the original founding actives and pledges with the help of current 
actives' records and by contacting alumnae, so that a permanent record would exist 
for future members.

For the past few years, Sigma Kappa has been working on tracing its families. "Recently, 
we have kept good records of the family trees and we have written to alumnae to try to 
trace it back even further," Murphy said.

Delta Chi also has a permanent record of all its big and little brothers that was compiled 
by the Delta Chi Little Sisses.

And the most important tradition of all is carried on when the little brothers and sisters 
become big brothers and sisters themselves. ECHO

Plastic money

The struggle to build a credit rating has been made a little easier for more than 250 
students during the past year.

Delta Sigma Pi, professional business fraternity, and the College Credit Card Corporation 
of Philadelphia, Pa., took applications from any junior, senior, or graduate student and, 
after screening, obtained a charge card for him with any of several corporations.

"We do it as a service program, and also as a fundraiser. We (Delta Sigma Pi) get 75 cents 
for each application," senior Kevin Rockhold, member of Delta Sigma Pi said. "(The program) 
provides a service for students, and it also builds a credit reference for them when they 
graduate," Rockhold said.

This was apparently senior Robin Bowings main reason for applying for a card. "I applied for 
the credit card because of the fact that the application was there. I'm trying to establish 
a credit rating."

Rockhold said many students apply for the card for more practical reasons, too. "I think a 
lot of the students do go on and use the cards." For the past two years Deltasig has offered 
the opportunity for students to apply for credit cards from Sears. This year it expanded the 
project.

Deltasig furnished applications for cards from Sears, Stix, Baer and Fuller and Mastercard. 
Shell Oil, Phillips 66 and Mobil Oil also have student programs whereby graduating seniors 
are eligible for a charge card regardless of credit rating. The companies contact the 
student directly.

Rockhold said before this year only about 80 students a year applied for the credit cards 
Deltasig offered. He said the expansion of the project was responsible for the higher number 
of applications. The increase in students applying for cards was "a lot on the account of 
offering a large store like Stix, Baer and Fuller," Rockhold said.

Cynthia Sadler, temporary instructor of business administration, warned students seeking credit 
cards of a few pitfalls. "One of the big tactics lately has been used by a company who is 
advertising and making phone calls saying they can get you a Mastercharge or Visa without 
any credit check. Sometimes they can, but their methods aren't always legitimate.

"Students should be very careful as far as the conditions of the charge card they apply for. 
The same card may have an $18 a year fee or an $18 a month fee, depending upon the bank it's 
issued through. The best ones are the cards that are free." she said.

Students with any questions about credit card applications or credit ratings should contact 
either the Better Business Bureau with an office in Columbia, or the Adair County Credit 
Bureau, Inc., before taking any action. ECHO

Campus showoffs

The step between high school and college is a big one for most students. There are questions 
about classes, residence halls and social activites. Two student organizations based in the 
Admissions Office, Student Ambassadors and Students To Assist Recruitment, as well as other 
students who work in admissions, give insight on college life from a student's standpoint and 
help the college bound "bridge the gap."

"The students are our best recruiters, there's no doubt about it. I have always appreciated 
their honesty and candor," Terry Taylor, director of admissions, said.

The Student Ambassador organization began in 1974. Ambassadors give campus tours to prospective 
students, parents and other visitors. Each tour lasts approximately 45 minutes and includes a 
look at major campus buildings and residence hall double- and multiple-occupancy rooms. 
Ambassadors encourage questions about college and social life that are not answered in 
University brochures.

Ambassadors are scheduled to work one hour per week. If no one requests a tour, the Ambassadors 
help prepare recruitment mailings. In addition, they are required to sign up for one Saturday 
tour time each year and assist with one high school VIP Weekend and either the President's 
Distinguished Scholar Weekend or a visit day.

Most Ambassadors are chosen near the end of the spring semester and begin duties the following 
fall. The selection process includes a written application and a five-minute interview with 
members of the Student Ambassadors executive board and Admissions staff. Senior Sharon Martin, 
Student Ambassadors president, said the purpose of the interview is to discover how well a person 
would greet people he or she did not know, his level of commitment to the University and his 
leadership capbabilities.

New Ambassadors are also chosen throughout the year to replace Ambassadors who are unable to 
fulfill their duties.

Sophomore Karen Kettler said she has enjoyed her first year as a Student Ambassador because 
she likes to meet prospective students and help them decide where they want to go to college. 
"Everyone is different and you have to find something that you have in common with that person," 
Kettler said.

"It's hard for me when parents are along," senior Kathy Biggs said. She said she always tries 
to include parents in the discussions, but directs most of her questions to the students. Biggs 
said she likes telling students about the University. "The University has given a lot to me and 
I wanted to pay them back for it," she said.

Martin said she joined because the Ambassadors organization sounded interesting, and she saw it 
as an opportunity to help her in her interpersonal communication major. She said she enjoys 
giving tours, except when she deals with difficult parents or students who don't want to be 
here. "Most of the students seem much more impressed at the end of the tour than at the 
beginning," she said.

A trend toward a smaller group of Ambassadors has begun, Martin said. The group has approximately 
50 members, but has had almost 80 members in the past. "Nobody knew the people in the Admissions 
Office and the office people didn't know the Ambassadors when the group was large," Martin said. 
"There was no cohesion in the group. It had ceased to be a selective group."

Members of STAR use the telephone as their means of communication with prospective students. During 
the fall semester, members call prospects to see if they have any questions.

Campus showoffs

Near the end of January, members begin calling students who have been accepted to remind them 
about deadlines for scholarships and housing contracts. Members also call prospects to tell 
them about upcoming events such as VIP weekends and going-to-college seminars.

"I was impressed by the phone calls I received when I was an incoming freshman, and I wanted to 
offer that same service to incoming students," freshman Tracy Bryan said.

Freshman Sherry White said, "I think that's a really important part of the University. I can 
remember people that called me last year were really nice." White said that the prospects 
usually are inquisitive about the University.

"Most of the time they're really excited that someone from the University is calling to talk 
to them," freshman Denise Thraen said.

The calls STAR members make are very important, Taylor said, because they add a human touch 
to the contacts Admissions make with students. "In reality, they (STAR) probably have more 
impact than the Student Ambassadors," Taylor said. Each STAR member makes many more contacts 
during his shift than a Student Ambassador makes during his time, he said.

Taylor said that a recent interview with a marketing research group made up of high school 
students and parents showed that brief informational calls from STAR members and calls from 
faculty members after the student has applied are well received. The same group of parents 
and students was given a list of people they might talk with about the University, including 
a University freshman, deans, the director of admissions and a University senior. They were 
asked to indicate who they felt would be the most credible source of information. Most of 
them chose the University senior.

In addition to the STAR members and Student Ambassadors, several other students work in the 
Admissions Office.

Seniors Katie Steele and Stacie Hutton are admission counselors. Steele talks with students 
and parents and gives housing, scholarship and other informational material to prospective 
students, sometimes helps with going-to-college seminars and visits high schools.

Steele has worked in admissions for two years. She said she usually does not have trouble 
handling classes and her job, and most teachers have been understanding when she had to miss 
class because of a job-related commitment. She said she enjoys having the chance to tell 
students about the University. "I know not only that Northeast is a good place to go to 
school, but Kirksville is a good place to live," Steele said.

Hutton has given presentations about the University in approximately 50 high schools and 
five community colleges in southeast Iowa, and has helped with some going-to-college 
seminars.

An internship with student services at a community college gave Hutton experience for her 
present job. "Because of my age I can still relate to students and I think they like that. 
I feel they are more open to me," Hutton said.

Hutton said she usually does not have trouble keeping up in her classes. "It's really tough, 
because I like my job. I do it (keep up) because I'm conscious of needing good grades," 
Hutton said.

Senior Pam Weatherby, admissions communications coordinator, is responsible for planning campus 
visit weekends for prospective students, including VIP weekends and the President's Distinguished 
Scholar Weekend.

Weatherby said it was sometimes difficult to deal with the dual role of student and communications 
coordinator. In her job, she works with administrative-level people, but in the classroom she is 
on a totally different level, she said.

"I knew my job would be a challenge," Weatherby said. "There's something exciting about planning 
a weekend for 500 people. The reward is seeing the good expressions." ECHO

Through negotiations with agents, SAB prepares contracts with suitable Fringe benefits

The house lights go down, a hush falls over the audience, and it begins to stir expectantly. 
The curtain moves as someone crosses the stage behind it. Moments later, the curtain slowly 
parts. One spotlight sears into the darkness, followed by another, and yet another. The 
familiar faces of the singers, usually seen only on the covers of well-worn albums, appear. 
The band breaks into song, and the audience settles back, hoping the music won't end. But it 
does. The band leaves the stage, on to another city, another show. The audience files out the 
door, the mood slowly slipping away.

That night, for most simply a night of special entertainment, is actually the result of months 
of planning.

"People realize that a concert costs a lot of money, but they don't realize the planning that 
goes into a concert," Vonnie Nichols, director of student activities, said.

Several months before a concert, the preliminary contracts with agents begin. The agents may 
make the initial contact, or the Student Activities Board may call them after being given names 
by another university or receiving information by mail.

SAB talks to several agents, during the year which means contacting them several times a week, 
or even every day.

Before an agent is contacted, open dates for the auditorium must be determined and a budget 
established.

SAB worked with a $16,000 budget this year. While it might sound like a lot, big-name acts 
such as John Cougar, Asia, Jefferson Starship or Billy Squier cost well over $20,000. This 
money, in addition to paying for the main act, must also cover the sound and lights, the 
opening band, hospitality (food for the crew, and the band's food requirements), agency fees 
and advertising, and stage hands' wages.

Many people think that getting a certain act is as easy as picking up the phone and telling 
a group the University would like for them to play. Instead, the process is long and involved. 
When an agent is contacted, he has a list of available acts and dates. The trick is to match a 
date, an act and a price within the budget. Even with those factors met, some groups will not 
play in an auditorium as small as Baldwin Hall's. Also, many times when everything seems all 
set to go, the price suddenly goes up and the group goes out of the range of the budget.

Frequently, an agent will call with an offer that must be taken that day or not at all. Decisions 
must often be made very quickly. Once the decision to go with a band has been made, a formal offer 
for their services via the agent must follow, first by phone, then by telegram. Then the waiting 
begins.

"The waiting is the hardest part. It's nerveracking. Last fall for Cheap Trick, we had sent our 
telegram, and here everything was pretty much set. But then they (the group) held our contract 
up on their end, and it was quite a while before we received word that they would not be doing 
our show because of another commitment," freshman Adam Anhalt, SAB concert committe member, said.

If all goes well, SAB receives a telegram from the agent stating that the offer for the band's 
services has been accepted. Copies of the proposed contract will be sent to SAB for approval. 
The contract must be looked over very carefully by Ray Klinginsmith, University counsel, among 
others, to make sure SAB can fulfill its requirements and to request changes in requirements 
which cannot be met. Most agents know there are certain requirements a college can't meet. 
Requests for alcohol and limosines are typical. Alcohol is out of the question because it is 
illegal on state property and the limosine requirements cannot be met because the University 
doesn't have any.

For the proposed Juice Newton concert in April, SAB made one phone call to the agent to get 
her requests for one case of Heineken beer, one case of Budweiser, one bottle of tequila, one 
bottle of vodka, one bottle of Jack Daniels, one bottle of burgundy wine and two limosines 
taken out of the contract.

Once the changes in the contract have been

Fringe benefits

made, it must be sent back to the guests for their approval. They must sign the contract and 
send it back to the University. When these transactions are completed, the show is on the 
road.

Then the real work begins. Tickets must be ordered and the sale date and method of sales 
decided. Promotional materials must be obtained. About a month before the show, the concert 
committee must arrange for rental of any extra sound and light equipment. Equipment must 
sometimes be rented from companies in Kansas City or St. Louis.

The catering must be arranged about a month prior to the show. Some groups are incredibly 
picky, with requests for things like five pounds of M & Ms with all the brown candies 
removed. Juice Newton's requests were relatively easy to fulfill in comparison. She 
requested cereal, yogurt, fruit, coffee, soda and fruit juices for the crew upon arrival 
in the morning, and fresh fruit, cold beverages, soda, Perrier water, hot coffee, hot 
herbal tea, honey, lemon, milk, sugar, fresh vegetables, a deli tray with two kinds of 
breads, two cheeses, chips and meats (no processed ones) and sixteen hot meals.

Everything must be doublechecked.

As the time for the show draws nearer, the tickets are sold, and things start to snowball.

The day of the show is hectic, to put it mildly. The crew arrives, often early in the morning, 
and the action is nonstop until after all traces of the show are gone that night.

When the crew arrives, setting up the equipment begins. Everything must be done to the road 
manager's satisfaction. The catering, paper cups and extras like towels (twenty in Juice 
Newton's case) must be picked up.

When Cheap Trick performed in the fall of 1981, their road manager didn't like the kind of 
paper cups SAB provided. Shortly before showtime, a run to a grocery store was made to get 
the exact kind of cups they wanted.

The dressing rooms must be spotless and ready for the band's arrival, and security plans that 
have been very carefully made must be just as carefully followed. The crowd must be kept happy, 
and at the same time, the artist's requirements about no pictures or recordings of the concert 
must be respected. The University's rules about no smoking, food or drinks in the auditorium are 
also enforced.

Usually a few minor mishaps happen, but with luck and careful planning, no major catastrophes 
occur. Then the show will go on. During the show, care is taken so everyone working security 
gets to see at least a part of the show, and the artist is happy with the way things are going.

After the show, the artist must be paid, the equipment loaded, and the artist's requests for 
privacy and security honored if the band will not sign autographs.

In spite of the hard work, it's exciting. "The excitement builds as you talk to agents and 
hear possible availabilities. Then you choose someone, and the day of the concert, there you 
are, face to face with someone you've only seen on TV," junior John Bell, SAB concert 
commmittee member, said.

SAB feels that in spite of a very limited budget, a small hall, and all the worries that go 
with the planning, that one night is worth it. It's worth it to make one night of the year 
something to remember. ECHO Story by Karen Gordy

prayer break. students were invited to meditate at the service and to join in a few 
songs.
 
(Page 307)

Not a prayer

"It was to give the students a break in the middle of the day to relax and meditate," 
sophomore Laura Brayman said. But students did not take advantage of the opportunity 
the United Campus Ministry's Noon-Day Break offered, and subsequently, the plan folded 
after three struggling months.

The 15-minute prayer sessions were held every Monday through Friday in the chapel of the 
Kirk Memorial Building at 12:45 p.m. The services began near the end of September and were 
cancelled after Thanksgiving break.

"They (UCM) felt that they (noon-day breaks) would offer a time of prayer on campus for all 
Christians who wanted it," senior Mary Schwartz, UCM president, said.

This was not the first time this type of prayer service was tried. Another noon-day prayer 
service, called Noon-Day Devotions, was held in the 1950s.

"My dad was president of the Baptist Student Union in 1950-51 and my mother was president in 
1953-54. They were active in noonday devotions," David Gregory, senior representative of the 
Baptist Student Union, said.

The noon-day break services were nondenominational. Each of the campus centers, the Baptist 
Student Union, Campus Christian Fellowship, Lutheran Student House, Newman Center and Wesley 
House took charge of one day's service each week. But no real format was established for the 
services for the purpose of attracting students from various denominations.

Members of United Campus Ministry toured the different religious campus centers, explaining 
the purpose of the services. They also kept advertising the break to draw interest, but none 
of their efforts worked.

"It (noon-day break) wasn't a very necessary thing," Brayman said. "The people who did come were 
active in one of the houses. We weren't filling any type of need that wasn't already being filled."

The purpose was to bring the services to students who were not necessarily active in any religion, 
rather than leaving the houses as the only option for prayer and meditation.

"There wasn't enough participation by students, We (UCM) felt it wasn't reaching the students we 
wanted to," Schwartz said.

The time of the service was another problem cited by UCM members.

"It (the time) probably could have been better, but I don't think that would have made that big a 
difference in it. I don't think that many students were interested in it," Schwartz said. "In my 
opinion, the way it looked, I don't think the time would have made any difference."

"A lot of people didn't think the time was good because they had class or were at lunch," junior 
Patricia Bell, Newman Center Council president, said.

The lack of success with the prayer break did not discourage members of United Campus Ministry since 
the service was not a major activity or goal. And after they evaluated the break, the failure left 
no impression on them. They decided the project was not necessary.

Although the noon-day prayer break was not attempted a second time this year, Schwartz said it may 
be tried again in future years. And despite the break's lack of success, Schwartz hoped the fault 
of the program lay with the time and not the students' apathy. "I hope the problem was with the 
time and not that the students just didn't care," Schwartz said. ECHO

Open house

It's close to campus. It's a place to meet. And 14 assorted students of both sexes live 
within its walls.

The Lutheran Student House was purchased in October and rent paid by its tenants makes house 
payments. When one of the renters moves out, another is found to take over that share of the rent.

This is the second coed Lutheran house the students have lived in. The first was created when 
Lutheran students felt a strong need to have a meeting place, other than the church, close to 
campus. The situation worked out well in the first house. "If it hadn't worked out in the first 
house, we wouldn't do it again," junior Lynn Reynolds said.

The house is divided into three different sections, each with its own kitchen and bathroom. In 
addition, there is a game room, a prayer room and a large room reserved for devotions and meetings.

The residents pay either $110 or $125 rent a month, depending upon the type of room they have. 
For example, one of the rooms comes with a private entry, bedroom, bathroom and kitchen. Those 
who live in this arrangement pay $125 each, utilities included.

Most of the students in the house pay a fee every month for groceries. Some residents, however, 
are on special diets and are responsible for their own food.

Like any other growing family, it is very difficult to get everyone together for a meal. "We 
would like to eat together, but it just isn't feasible," Reynolds said.

Perhaps a coed living arrangement where a strong affiliation with a religion is concerned seems 
a little out of the ordinary. But those who live in the house and Jim Pennington, director of 
the Lutheran Student House, have favorable opinions toward the arrangement.

"Being coed works out real well with good Christian people," Pennington said. He said the atmosphere 
in the house can help in growth, in marriage, in friendships and accepting responsiblities.

"It is a family life. Even though in real life I have no brothers and sisters, the people in the house 
share my ups and downs," senior Cynthia Albers said.

"Living at the Lutheran House is the best decision I've made. Yes, it's coed and that's not an 
advantage or disadvantage. The girls and guys enjoy it," sophomore Joni Brockschmidt said. There 
are no couples in the house because all those living there look on each other as brother and sister.

Like any family, the students who share the house take turns doing the chores. "We just sit down and 
work up schedules at the beginning of the semester," Reynolds said.

With other students coming and going from the house for various reasons, those living in the house 
might feel like they are living in a bus station. But the visitors do not bother the residents. "I'd 
hate to think there would come a time when someone wouldn't come over because they thought we didn't 
have time," Reynolds said.

So what makes the coed arrangement in the Lutheran Student House work is the cooperation of those who 
live in it. Like one big, happy family, they all have their ups and downs, but they never have to handle 
them alone. "We learn to get along with each other and take responsibility," freshman Murray Fullner 
said. And the door is always open. ECHO

IN HER ROOM, sophomore Joni Brockschmidt refers to a book. The living quarters of the Lutheran Student 
House are separate from the meeting rooms so residents have privacy when they want it.

INFORMALLY, freshman Murray Fulton, junior Lynn Reynolds, senior Cindy Albers, sophomore Jeff Britsch

To show that their spirits were with the bulldogs, 100 people offered to 
Take the ball and run

The second annual Residence Hall Association Football Relay, which took place Sept. 23-25, 
was designed to raise spirit and boost team confidence. It more than accomplished its goal, 
spurring the Bulldogs to a 27-10 victory over Western Illinois University in Macomb, Ill.

Approximately lOO people ran the 160 miles to Macomb. Last year, about 157 people ran the 
175 miles to Northwest Missouri State University in Maryville. Although the number of runners 
was smaller this year than last, the response was considered "outstanding." Many people had 
to be turned away because of a shortage of miles to be run. Some of this year's runners 
elected to run more than the allotted one mile.

The sponsor of this year's run was the Budweiser Brewing Company who donated shirts for 
each of the runners.

The run began at a pep rally hosted by RHA which boasted a large turnout and created 
enthusiasm for the run in football players and runners alike. Freshman Scott Cummings, 
Bulldog defensive guard, said, "This is super! The guys definitely get more fired up. 
We're excited about this year, and this is a big game for us."

Senior Lori Berquam, who ran last year at 3 a.m., said, "They (the people who did not run) 
don't know what they're missing."

At 10 p.m. Sept. 23, Dean of Students Terry Smith began running the first mile. He carried 
the game ball. "I love it! It is a privilege to be the first runner. Last year I took about 
three steps and I was higher than a kite," he said.

After signing up to run, each person was given a specific time and mile to run. Car pools were 
then organized to transport the runners to specified points. When one runner finished his mile, 
he passed the football to the waiting runner.

Both students and staff members were encouraged to participate. Because part of the run took 
place on Friday, students had to schedule around classes or make arrangements with their 
teachers.

Sophomore Kevin Pipkins, one of the chairmen of the RHA relay, said, "It makes you feel really 
good after you're done. It was neat how everybody worked together to make it a whole."

The Bulldog mascot, sophomore Tod Sylvara, ran the final mile into the stadium with the football. 
He was met at the fifty yard line by sophomore David Norris, president of RHA, and Cheri Peppin, 
president of WIU Interhall Council. An enthusiastic group of 53 runners followed the Bulldog into 
the stadium and handed the ball to the referee.

Freshman Eric Winters said before the race, "I think it will be pretty easy if you are determined 
to make it." The runners were determined. . .and they made it. ECHO

Home work

Taking their work home with them is an every day occurrence for the students who serve as 
Resident Assistants. "To be good, it takes a total time commitment," junior Darryl Nitsch, 
Dobson Hall RA, said.

The role of the RA in the hall concentrates on communicating with the residents and determining 
their needs. "The RA is there as a resource. They are there to help you." Nitsch said. "RAs are 
a very important part of campus living."

At the beginning of the year, some RAs will survey the residents on their wing to see exactly 
what needs have to be met, sophomore Karen Lindbloom, Centennial Hall RA, said.

Roommate problems are typical of the situations that RAs assist residents in working out. Junior 
Lisa Crates, Ryle Hall RA, said she likes to treat these problems on a one-to-one basis when they 
arise. "Ninety-five percent of the problems that have arisen have worked themselves out," she said.

Enforcement of the rules in the RH Factor, the resident life handbook, and in the halls is an RA's 
most easily recognizable duty. "They are seen as strictly rule enforcers (by students), however, 90 
percent of their time is spent proactively with the residents," Ron Gaber, director of residence 
life, said. He said that this role is the hardest for the resident to accept.

Each resident is given an RH Factor, and if they break the rules it affects not only them but others, 
sophomore Matt Pollock, Missouri Hall RA said. Alcohol related incidents, violation of visitation 
hours, and vandalism are the most common violations RAs handle.

RAs' duties also include administrative tasks for the hall and their wings. They are required to 
keep an accurate record of all the people who move on or off of their wings. They also have to 
make sure each resident fills out a damage report to use at check-out time and work at the hall 
desk during the week.

Each week a short report on the wing's activities and any problems that have arisen is turned 
into the hall director. There are also weekly staff meetings which RAs attend. The hall councils 
and RAs work closely together on programs and other activities for the hall. RAs are not required 
to work on hall council, but they are encouraged to attend meetings on a regular basis. There is 
always an open invitation for them to attend the meetings, Lynn Zanitsch, director of Ryle Hall, 
said.

Anne Dougherty, director of Centennial Hall, said that there is a good working relationship between 
RAs and hall council. They cosponsor many programs.

Part of this cooperation comes from the requirement that RAs give two educational programs each 
semester. These programs range from roommate relations to human sexuality. They are also required 
to attend "in-service training programs" once a month.

A class is also offered as training first-year RAs called Introduction to Residence Hall Personnel 
Services which focuses on skills such as assertiveness training, conflict resolution, and advising 
and counseling skills. An advanced class is also offered for second year RAs. This is the first year 
that the classes have not been mandatory.

An intensive team-building training camp was held this summer in Iowa. Gaber said it was mainly to 
aquaint the RAs with each other.

Before this training process can begin, the selection of the RAs takes place. Gaber said there is 
approximately a 50 percent turnover rate each year.

To fill the 50 available positions, recruitment for applicants began in the spring with posters 
focusing on the communication skills gained and the financial gains of being an RA. RAs must have 
at least sophomore status and a 2.5 grade point average. The Residence Life Office received 140 
applications for the positions, which provide free room and board plus $20 a month. Each applicant 
can apply at three halls.

The process of selection involves three stages: application, group interviews and individual 
interviews with a central selection committee composed of a hall director, assistant director, 
an RA, and a randomly-chosen resident. "The group interviews are designed to see how the person

own opinion," Gaber said.

In individual interviews, questions are focused to determine the individual's philosophy on the 
position. During the interviews, questions are devloped "to reflect where our interest and 
concerns lie," Gaber said. "We're looking for people who are trainable."

both administrators and students. "I see them as real innovators and initiators in terms of 
everything from doing programs and administrative duties to building communities within their

Operating experience

Imagine, if you can, a lab required for a University class. What would you find? Chemicals? 
Slides and microscopes? Work tables?

How about a horse? Thats' right, a horse. You might see such a thing or a number of different 
animals if you were thinking of a lab for animal health technology students.

The program takes two years to complete, with an additional summer internship after the first 
year. Enrollment is limited to 30 students each year.

In the labs, the students gain first-hand experience by working with animals and the best 
equipment. Both are reasons the program is considered one of the best in the nation.

"Presently in the U.S. only 55 of the animal health technology programs are accredited with 
the American Medical Association," Richard Keith, director of the animal health technology 
program, said. "Of these, 20 are only partially accredited. We have one of the fully accredited 
programs here."

Students involved in the program have the opportunity to work with live animals obtained from 
the Humane Society. Both the animals and the equipment are kept in the Animal Health Technology 
Building, located south of Barnett Hall.

Keith stressed that time is one of the limiting factors which keeps the laboratory from being 
run as an operating clinic. Adequate time and personnel are not available to operate as a clinic; 
the building is simply for class and instruction. Animals kept there are only from the Humane 
Society; area residents cannot bring their animals in for care.

In the labs students learn surgical preparation and assistance and anesthesiology as well as 
identification and handling of pharmaceuticals, Keith said. Students also are

"There are plenty of opportunities in the field," Keith said, "but it's very important that it's 
what the students want to do." The labs and internships give students the opportunity to make sure 
they are making the right decision he said.

Junior Lynn Wyss, a registered animal health technician and a 1982 graduate of the program, said 
she liked the program because of the hands-on experience it offered. "I love working with animals, 
and one of the strongest points about the program is the actual experience with animals," she said.

Other students also expressed satisfaction with the program. "I feel they do a very good job with 
the program here," sophomore Monica Stone said. "I think I've been prepared very well." Stone had 
internships in Grinnell and Newton, Iowa. "I really loved going out on farm calls," she said.

Sophomore Melody Petersen spent her internship in Springfield working with anesthesia, X-rays and 
various other duties. "I think the labs and internships really prepare you," Petersen said. "I 
really like the program a lot; I'm going to enjoy doing this as a job."

Some students complete the program and then use it as a base from which to further their education. 
Sophomore Monica Robe entered the program in the fall. "I want to work with small animals, like dogs 
and cats, but it's hard to say what I will do. I might go on to get a four-year animal science degree," 
she said.

Wyss is remaining at the University to pursue a four-year animal science degree. "I felt I needed a 
broader education for my own personal knowledge." Wyss said she would like to eventually work with a 
veterinarian in a large animal practice.

"I feel like I'm a highly-trained person," junior Katie Yates said. Yates is staying at the University 
to get a degree in biology and an emphasis area in medical technology. With that combination Yates said 
she thinks she could perform laboratory tests and work in either a human or an animal hospital.

Crowning Glory

The crowning achievement of Black Awareness Week came at the coronation of senior Valerie 
Hayes as Miss ABC.

Senior Ellen Dowell, co-director of the pageant, said, "Miss ABC is someone who possesses poise 
and personality to represent the Association of Black Collegians and the whole student body. She 
will be our representative for next year's homecoming queen contest and Miss Kirksville."

Anyone may enter the pageant, she said. "It is not limited to black students. The Association for 
Black Collegians is for all students, not necessarily only blacks."

"Miss ABC gives some talented young lady the chance to perform and show her intelligence on stage," 
senior Dwyane Smith, president of ABC, said.

Hayes was chosen from a field of five contestants. The contestants were judged on their answer to an 
impromptu question, a peer interview conducted Saturday, poise and personality, talent and sponsorship.

"It's (the Miss ABC pageant) improving as years go by," Smith said. "The first year it was just a 
coronation. Now we incorporate a dance routine and individual talent."

Hayes said participation in the pageant made an impact on the campus. "It was doing something for 
blacks and campus togetherness," she said.

Freshmen Joann Roberts and Greer Baldwin said the pageant was a lot of fun and both enjoyed the people 
aspect of the pageant. Roberts said she has learned to work with people better now with the pageant 
experience behind her.

"I thought it would be a lot of fun. It's a totally new experience," Roberts said.

Another contestant, junior Marjorie Hobbs said she entered the pageant because it was a new field of 
interest. "I've gotten to see a different side of myself from it," Hobbs said.

Chester Brook, graduate student and codirector of Miss ABC, described the competition

as great. "The girls stuck together wishing each other luck all the way through," he 
said.

Besides rehearsals, the contestants got to know each other through various informal get 
togethers and a Miss ABC dinner, Smith said.

These activities gave the women the chance to know each other better and choose a Miss 
Congeniality. "All the contestants vote for the girl who is the most friendly and 
enthusiastic through the whole pageant process," Smith said.

Junior June Shaw was selected by her peers as Miss Congeniality. Shaw was also named first 
runner-up to Miss ABC. Shaw said the pageant helped improve her nature. "Pm hooked on helping 
someone else now," she said.

The pageant opened with a dance routine to the song 'Everybody Rejoice" from the Broadway 
musical "The Wiz" performed by the contestants. Other entertainment was provided by the Unique 
Ensemble, the Groove Band, and the Blues Brothers. The talent numbers included tap, modern and 
aerobic dances, a ragtime piano solo and a dramatic reading.

The Miss ABC pageant started in 1979, but this was only the third year the pageant was held. 
There was no pageant last year because of a lack of preparation time and finances, Smith said. 
ABC finances the pageant.

"We (ABC) hope the pageant gets bigger and better each year," Smith said.

"It's fantastic, and I urge girls to join next year. It's a wonderful experience," Hayes said.

The Miss ABC pageant came at the end of a week of activities commemorating Black Awareness Week.

The week began with a performance by the Lincoln Dance Troupe and a lecture about black music 
by O. Anderson Fuller, the first black to receive a doctorate in music.

Events continued through the week of Feb. 14 and included a fashion and talent show, a dance 
and a semi-formal ball. ECHO Story by Dian Kunce

Scouts honor

"Once an Eagle, always an Eagle," senior David Gregory said. Now, University students who 
are Eagle Scouts have the opportunity to continue providing service through their 
organization.

The official title for the club is the Northeast Missouri State University Eagle Scout 
Association. The constitution for the club says to improve relations between the University 
and community through support of the local Boy Scout council, the University and the 
community, and provision of a fraternal organization for the Eagle Scouts on campus are 
its primary goals.

"This (the club) provides opportunity for college-age men to keep involved in Scouting by 
doing service within the local community, working with local groups, and to keep on with 
involvement with Scouting," Gregory said.

"I like to be active in Scouting, but not overly active, like with a troop," sophomore Dave 
Haden said. Haden is the executive director of monetary management for the club.

"It's a campus organization and you get to meet other people with the same interests. You 
can use it as a reference because any involvement (with Scouting) now is on a leadership level."

The basic thrust of the organization lies with the local Scout troops. "We are here to provide 
leadership for local Scout troops and resources for the Scouting district to use," junior Ron 
Collins said. Collins is the associate executive chairman of the group.

"This will be the second year in a row we will plan and more or less run the district Scout 
show," Haden said. "We also offer services as merit badge counselors." The Scout show allows 
the Scouts an opportunity to display their Scouting skills.

"Last school year we had a leader training conference," Collins said. "We gave Scouts all-day 
training in leadership in this district."

Dean of Instruction Darrell Krueger, Scouting district chairman, initiated the program in the 
fall of 1981. Krueger invited University Eagle Scouts to a breakfast and asked about the need 
for an organization such as this. About 20 to 40 Eagles showed interest in organizing the group, 
Haden said. "We got our one year constitution passed spring semester last year," he said. "We 
have about a dozen active members this year."

"There are approximately 40 to 50 Eagle Scouts on campus," Gregory said. "There is strong interest 
here and potential for growth." "We haven't been able to determine if it is a lack of interest or 
knowledge (of the group)," Collins said. "We are hoping it's only knowledge so we can change it."

As far as the staying power of the organization, Collins said that the present group will keep the 
organization alive on campus for at least one and a half years. "Without new members, though, we 
won't stay viable."

"There would be a goal to become a better influence on campus to help the University if possible," 
Gregory said. "We are trying to emphasize that you can stay in Scouting while in college." ECHO

The young and the unrested

Each year, the Echo staff comes up against basically the same problems: finding writers who 
respect deadlines, finding experienced and dedicated help and finally finding enough hours 
in the day, especially before the March 1 deadline.

However, each year there are new faces on the staff, and this year was no different, except 
for the fact that the new faces belonged to a younger and less-experienced editorial staff.

"A lot of people showed interest," sophomore Sherri Reichert, business manager, said.

Most of the applications for general staff work were from freshmen or people who had worked with 
their high school yearbook, Reichert said. Many of these people became involved with other campus 
activities and could devote only a little time to the Echo. This left many of the details usually 
handled by the general staff to the editors.

In addition the applicants for editorial positions were inexperienced. "It turned out that most of 
the people that applied were younger," junior Kathleen Armentrout, editor in chief, said. No one 
on the editorial staff was a senior, and Reichert and Armentrout were the only returning staff 
members. Armentrout said having a young staff does have its advantages.

"They don't have any preconceived ideas. They haven't gone through it all before, so they're not 
burned out."

More specific problems, however, plagued this year's Echo staff. "We've had three different feature 
editors this year," sophomore Tracy Dreessen, managing editor, said. She said that during interims 
between feature editors, the staff had to double up. This was an added burden on the staff that was 
short a copyeditor all year.

"Fighting with those machines is what I hate," Dreessen said. Gaining access to equipment needed to 
run out copy was often inconvenient. From the Echo office in Laughlin Building, the typeset material 
has to be taken to the Publications Office in the Administration/Humanities Building to the equipment 
shared by other departments.

"It would be nice if we could get offices over there," Armentrout said. "It takes a lot of time 
transporting copy."

Junior John Winkelman, layout editor, said he could have used an assistant during the year. "There's 
so much to do for one person."

Junior Pat Rollins, photo editor, said she thought the staff needed to be larger, too. She said 
she could have used more help because "it's very hard to get reliable photographers." 

With only 49 pages completed by February, the staff still felt confident that the book would be 
completed before the deadline. "We're going to be up 'till the wee hours of the morning," Dreessen 
said.

Armentrout said the other pages were almost completed and would go down fast. What they were waiting 
for in February were feature stories. Writers, responsible-to-deadline writers, were difficult to 
come by. So difficult in fact that about a month before the March deadline, $5 a story was given to 
those writers who made a one-week story deadline. Armentrout said that even then most of the writers 
missed their deadline and consequently payment.

Feature stories are essential to the Echo's magazine format which stresses continuity. "You don't 
know how much continuity you've achieved until the book is printed," Armentrout said. "Every year 
you try for a different style. Something different doesn't always happen, so you have to have new 
ways of looking at the same things."

The Echo shares the third floor of Laughlin with the Index and KNEU. Early Thursday mornings find 
the Index staff "putting the paper to bed" and then going there themselves. Round the corner to the 
Echo office, any day of the school year, one might find an Echo staffer working toward that one big 
deadline. Respect is what most of the staffers feel they are missing.

"Nobody realizes where the yearbook comes from and how much work goes into it," Dreessen said.

When does the Rodney Dangerfield of campus media get respect? It comes sometime in April, when the 
student walks away with over 300 pages of valuable memories tucked under his arm. ECHO

A BRAINSTORMING SESSION prompts sophomore Sherri Reichert, business manager, and junior Michelle Yost, 
sports editor, to reorganize story angles before deadline.

CAUGHT in thought sophomore Tracy Dreessen, managing editor, concentrates on story ideas. Due to the 
inconsistency of the feature editor position other editors were forced to take up the slack.

IN A DUAL ROLE junior Kathleen Armentrout, editor in chief, copyedits stories submitted to the Echo. 
Although the position of copyeditor was advertised it was never filled.

Patchwork production

A broken arm mends and a broken record plays again and again, but sometimes a broken 
headliner just cannot be salvaged.

Faulty equipment was one of the most frustrating problems the Index faced during the 
year. Early in the fall, the machine which typesets headlines for the newspaper broke 
down and could not be repaired. "We're expected to put out a quality newspaper, but we 
don't have quality equipment to work with," junior Jodi Carlson, assistant editor, said.

Although a new headliner was ordered, it did not arrive until Christmas break, and the 
Index had to use alternative typesetting facilities. "Before we got the new headliner, 
we had to set all the headlines on the MDT computer terminal which involved typesetting 
and then processing in another building," Carlson said.

Other equipment also gave the Index problems and slowed work on the weekly newspaper. In 
order to speed the process, photographs are printed using a photo processor. The old 
machine also stopped working in the middle of the year. "The old one could hardly be 
called a processor," junior Keith Greenwood, news-photography editor, said. The equipment 
problem was resolved temporarily when a used processor was found on campus.

"Equipment problems aren't any worse than any other year; it's inherent," junior Kevin 
Smith, editor in chief, said. The breakdowns are frustrating he said, but have to be 
expected when the equipment is old and organizations fight for time on them.

As has often happened in the past, the Index staff has put in long hours Wednesday nights 
to meet the 7 a.m. printers' deadline. "Even though we stay up all night, it's not like 
we just throw it together; it goes through several checks," Smith said.

Last spring the Index was selected as one of the top 22 newspapers in the nation and was 
presented a five-star All-American award. "Last year set the standard and this year we've 
attempted to keep up and possibly go beyond it," sophomore Terry Dunseith, news-assignments 
editor, said. "It was a year of continuation; quality continuation."

In an attempt to improve the quality of the paper, the staff made some small changes and at 
least one major format change. In the past the back page has contained only advertisements 
and free classifieds. The back page was tranformed into a full news page in an attempt to 
draw more readers to the best stories in the paper.

"With the new back page, we really have two front pages. The staff does well to fill both," 
Smith said.

The full-page of news on the back was an attempt to use the space more efficiently. "Our 
adviser always said we were not using the back page efficiently," Smith said. The back page 
makes the best stories more accessible. Smith said he thinks many people read the newspaper 
from the back, forward and the change would interest them in the news pages. He also said he 
thinks people will look inside for the free classifieds.

The back news page is a new idea for the paper, but some ideas are annual goals. "We talk 
about this every year, making every page consistent. One thing we keep working on is 
consistency. The big question is how to get it out sooner," Carlson said.

Although Smith did not offer student status as an excuse for the late hours, he said it did 
affect how students worked. "Because we're students we feel that comes first and that's why 
we put in late hours," he said. "It's not that we're inefficient, we just use our time 
differently

"It goes back to the theory that students who are busy are better students," he said. Dunseith 
said Smith's approach emphasized quality. "Because Kevin is layout oriented, he's really a 
stickler for detail in layout."

Dunseith also said one of the problems was with too much specialization. "It can be a problem 
to specialize in one area rather than taking the wholistic approach because in order to meet 
deadlines, people have to help each other," he said. "By specializing, you put more of a 
burden on yourself."

The problems of the year were both the expected long nights and the rather unexpected lack 
of a headliner, but the staff met the deadlines and looked for ways to do it just a little 
earlier. "There has to be an answer because it's been done before. I just wonder sometimes 
if quality has to be sacrificed for deadline," Carlson said.

"I think our goals are high and the paper reflects that," Smith said. ECHO

HEADLINES are needed for every story and junior Kevin Smith, Index editor in chief, consults 
with freshman staff member Patti Dunseith. Staff members also fit headlines to copy.

THROUGH THE OPEN DOORS at midnight, members of the Index staff work on the production of the 
next day's issue. The staff work all night long every Wednesday to produce Thursday's paper.

At 4:20 a.m. Thursday, senior Glenn Changar, Index copy editor, proofs a final paste-up of the 
day's edition. The Index staff usually works until 7 a.m. every Thursday morning.

Because pursestrings tightened within the University, KNEU sought outside help 
with its Money Matters

It is considered part of the instructional arm of the University. It is not a student service 
like the other campus media.

KNEU, the campus radio station, was organized differently from the Index or the Echo.

"The station was set up as laboratory experience for classroom activity in broadcast," Darrell 
Krueger, dean of instruction, said. "Beyond that, it gained some purpose to students and 
residence halls."

The University decided to run KNEU as a lab to avoid any direct competition with local stations. 
"Any other way puts the University in a bad light with private enterprise," Krueger said.

Another reason for this arrangement stems from the problem of justifying the use of public money 
to go into competition with private enterprise.

Because KNEU is defined as a lab rather than a student service, it does not have a budget but 
receives its money through the Division of Language and Literature. This has presented financial 
problems for the station.

Senior Jeff Young, station manager, said, "We can get whatever we need, but it's a hassle (going 
through the division). Echo and Index can budget in new equipment, but we can't budget anything 
new."

The KNEU staff came up with an underwriting project to help alleviate its financial problems. The 
project went into effect during the 1982 spring semester with limited sales.

"We decided to underwrite because we wanted some money to work with, to have on our own hands to 
be able to use," Young said. "Underwriting is as close to advertising as we can get (without 
having direct competition) and gives the DJs some other things to program in besides time, 
temperature and name of the group."

An underwriting spot consists of three 20-second spots per hour for $3. Two are done live by 
the DJ and one is an attention-grabber which is recorded with background music and played at 
the bottom of the hour with the legal ID for the station. The spot works as a donations to 
the station with on-air mentions in hopes students will patronize the businesses.

"We'll never get rich off of it, but it's at least a way to get money back in the program," 
junior Steve Heston, sales manager, said.

Heston sees the underwriting as a way to improve KNEU's sound and update equipment. He also 
feels it is important, "so students can work with equipment that can give them practical 
experience."

Heston sold approximately $800 worth of underwriting during the fall semester. "As far as 
what we anticipated, it (the project) wasn't that successful since we figured about $2,000 
worth of time per semester to sell and we only sold $800," Young said. "But when you take in 
to account that we were not on the air the first two weeks of the fall semester and one week 
of the spring," it is hard to decide how successful the project has been.

"I know we're all terribly surprised with what we've done, but I think we could do even more 
than we are," Heston said.

He attributes the success of the project to the "nucleus of merchants who are interested in 
contributing something" to the station. "It's good PR if nothing else. They are contributing 
to the University, the language and literature program and radio class instruction, and not 
really advertising. The audience (for KNEU) is not so great that they (the underwriters) are 
doing themselves a great favor as it is; they're making a donation to us," he said. In 
addition the rates for underwriting are reasonable.

Before this year, all revenue from underwriting went into the general fund for the University. 
Now KNEU has established an agency account through the Business Office to keep track of its 
revenue.

The staff also made a proposal to Krueger about the underwriting project.

Jim King, KNEU adviser and temporary instructor of mass communication, said, "The proposal isn't 
to change the underwriting, but how it (the money) is spent."

Originally, the revenue was channeled into Mass Communication Week either for promotional cost 
or speaker fees. The new proposal asks for a change in this policy so that KNEU can use the 
revenue to repair and purchase equipment and records.

The station, although continuing to underwrite its programming, has not heard from Krueger about 
the proposal.

Krueger recognizes the station's use of underwriting, but maintains that he "would like to have 
the financial capability to fully support the station as a lab experience since the University is 
able to do it in other areas." ECHO

Bigger and better

Students who take an interest in literary magazines probably thought they missed the fall 
issue of the University's student magazine, Windfall, this year.

Windfall is usually published semiannually. But this year, the staff decided to publish only 
one large issue to come out in the spring. The theory behind switching to one issue was to be 
able to publish better quality writing, Shirley Morahan, assistant professor of English and 
Windfall adviser, said.

"I think we need two issues because the first one seeds the spring issue," Morahan said.

Most of the editors preferred one issue to two. "I like one issue as an editor simply because 
we get more and better material," senior Shari Ramsey, selections editor, said.

Senior Teri Brain, promotions editor, said she liked one issue better because she felt that when 
a fall and spring issue were published, the second issue was shorted.

The single-issue transition has worked out well so far. Ramsey said the quality of published writings 
had gone up. But one of the big differences in the single-issue production is that for the first time, 
Windfall was in the black after publication.

Morahan attributed a major part of the job of getting the magazine out of the red to Brain. She said 
Brain, unlike promotions editors before her, worked extremely hard to raise funds for Windfall.

Most of the money for the magazine is gathered by solicitations. For a $5 donation, one may have his 
name in Windfall as a "friend." Any donation over this amount earns one the title of a "special 
friend."

At a time when money is tight, one might think Windfall would receive fewer donations. But Brain said 
this had not been the case.

"The usual people who have been 'friends' are still our 'friends' even though times are hard," Brain 
said. "As long as we keep our old 'friends', we can get by without as many new 'friends'."

Another way Windfall raised money was through a series of used book sales. University faculty and staff 
donated most of the books and Windfall sold them at a table in the Administration/Humanities Building 
for 50 cents or 75 cents. They averaged over $22 at each of the four sales, which made a dent in their 
production costs.

With two issues per year, publishing costs for each 40 page issue were about $250, Morahan said. They 
anticipate the single issue to be double these figures. The magazine does not receive money from the 
University and the cost of the book for consumers does not allow it to pay for itself.

The primary functions of Windfall are to allow an outlet for University students' writing as well 
as to provide consumers with an enjoyable sample of their writing.

Any University student may submit poetry and short stories to Windfall at any time throughout the 
year. All submissions are first looked ever by Ramsey. In the past, submissions were immediately 
conferred on by the the entire Windfall staff by a blind-jury process. But Morahan said she was 
surprised at the number of entries that were not cleaned up, as far as spelling and typographical 
errors were concerned. So this year, Ramsey took a more personal interest in the entries.

"I read each poem myself, as selections editor, and sent critique notes to writers so they had the 
opportunity to revise," Ramsey said. 

She also said some writers revised their entries and resubmitted them, while others did not bother. 
After entries were resubmitted, they were sent through the usual blind-jury process.

Once an entry is approved for publication, it must be typeset, run and pasted up by the staff before 
the entire issue is sent to press. Published writers receive two copies of Windfall for compensation.

Whether or not Windfall will be published once or twice next year is still in the air. But the staff 
has enjoyed the success of this year's single issue. ECHO

Side-light

The complicated life of a person with a job, family or both can be hectic. But when a program 
of college classes is added to the schedule another complication is included. Often, when 
college is of secondary importance the student does not feel that campus life welcomes him to 
participate. The Non-traditional Students Club, organized three years ago, is taking strides 
to make students in this situation feel more involved in college life.

Non-traditional students are either over 24, married, parents, commuters, handicapped or those 
who just feel they are non-traditional in some way. Adviser Jason Haxton, director of Missouri 
Hall, said the non-traditional student is "anyone who is not your basic beginning freshman just 
out of high school. We have some veterans and some international students."

As a part of his internship with the Student Services Office to complete his master's degree, 
Haxton was put in charge of the Non-traditional Students Club which has about 80 members. Haxton 
also represents non-traditional students as graduate representative on Student Senate.

Club vice president Sharon Jones, graduate student, said the real goal of the organization is to 
"make the University become aware that these students exist; that all students are not 18-22.1 
think that students that are older are, a lot of the time, ignored by the rest of the campus."

Haxton said, the organization is "to make all students comfortable, so that the college experience 
is more than just books."

"The club should be there to try to fulfil the needs of the non-traditional students," Jones said.

Non-traditional students have more time commitments that the average college student. "They have to 
subsist off their jobs. Education has to play a secondary role in their lives, second to jobs and 
families," Haxton said.

For this reason, Jones said non-traditional students sometimes know very little about the campus 
when they begin classes at the University. They are often unable to attend the summer orientation 
sessions.

At the beginning of the spring semester, the club, in coordination with Freshman Counseling, 
provided an orientation for students beginning classes in Janaury. "We did provide an orientation 
for new students; there were about 50 to 60 freshmen and five or she non-traditional students. 
The program consisted of a slide show and question-and-answer session," Haxton said.

It is a program they plan to continue. The Club also plans to compile a booklet for the non-traditional 
student, giving him the information he needs, Jones said.

One of the most difficult aspects of the Non-traditional Students Club is finding a good meeting 
time. "It is a changing crowd, the same group is not at every meeting," Haxton said. During the 
fall semester the Club met every week, but they plan to meet only three times this semester.

One of the meetings last semester featured Chandler Monroe, professor of speech, as the guest 
speaker. "He spoke on the problem of a diverse group, how to keep motivation high and about 
correct parliamentary procedure," Haxton said.

In an effort to offer non-traditional students a place to interact, the organization created a 
non-traditional students' lounge. The lounge is an area in the Student Union Games Room reserved 
for interaction between non-traditional students.

Another project the organization will continue to study is the introduction of an indentification 
card for the spouses of students. The card would admit spouses into University sporting events 
and allow them use of the library. "The card would reduce the cost of a University couple attending 
University events," Haxton said.

Since the goal of the organization is to serve non-traditional students, the group also plans to 
survey non-traditional students and ask them what they need.

For a student who does not fit the traditional mold of a college student, the Non-traditional 
Students Club offers an opportunity to meet and interact with others in the same situation. It 
tries to make it a little easier for them to complete their education and feel a part of the 
University. ECHO

Although Purple Pride, Purple Packers and the Showgirls are entirely different organizations 
involving different people and representing different ideas, they are all united by a common 
cause: supporting the University's two foremost men's varsity sports.

Purple Pride consists of 20 women who support the Bulldog football team at home and on the 
road, whenever possible. The women are chosen each spring by the football coaching staff. 
Those women who have been a part of Purple Pride in the past, must reapply each year for 
the honor.

The coaches screen applicants for the organization. Junior Becky Banzhaf said the coaches 
look for women who are enthusiastic and willing to work. She also said the selection was 
affected by the individual coach's taste in such qualities.

Personality was another quality cited by junior Sharon Carpenter as being relevant to the 
coaches' choice, along with friendliness, an outgoing personality and the amount of time 
an applicant has and is willing to devote to the organization.

Purple Pride members are easily spotted at home football games, dressed in white suits, 
purple blouses and white cowboy hats adorned with a purple band. They greet fans at the 
gates, sell programs and usher fans to reserved seats.

In addition to these duties, the members spend at least one hour each week during football 
season doing secretarial work in the football office. They also try to make it to at least 
one away game every season to support the team.

Some of the Purple Pride members do not think they are appreciated by the coaches and team 
members as much as they deserve. A few women were disappointed because they felt they were 
taken for granted by those they serve.

On the other hand, some Purple Pride women found the involvement rewarding.

"I think we're appreciated, but it's really hard for the guys to show it," Carpenter said. She 
also said the team noticed when some Purple Pride members did not attend some away games.

Overall, the women involved in the organization apply because they want to be more involved with 
the Bulldog football team and show their support in a special way.

Purple Packers are very similar to Purple

Pride. In fact, the basketball supporters are often mistaken for the other organization.

"People call us the Purple Pride," senior Geri Funke, Purple Packer, said.

Purple Packers is made up of only ten women who support the Bulldog men's basketball team 
in various ways. They seat boosters, pass out programs, and decorate the Dogs' lockerroom 
and occasionally supply them with cookies.

The boosters play a large role in the Purple Packers organization. They help pay for the 
Packer' uniforms of plaid wool skirts and purple blouses. Sometime during the year, the 
Packers usually sponsor a party for the team and the boosters to show what they do.

Applicants for Purple Packers are screened and interviewed for the selection process. Junior 
Julie Moore said the applicants are chosen on the basis of such qualities as enthusiasm, 
interest, time to devote to the organization and the possession of innovative ideas.

"I wanted to get involved and am interested in basketball. It gave me an opportunity to support 
the school in a way I liked," Moore said.

The Showgirls support the school in another way which they find enjoyable. Formerly known as the 
Rhythmettes, the pom pon squad spends six hours every week, practicing routines for halftime 
performances during men's basketball games in Pershing Arena. The twenty-woman squad is also 
required to attend the home basketball games even when they are not performing.

This was the first year the squad was known as the NMSU Showgirls They chose to change the name 
in an effort to change their image. The Index, the campus newspaper, published a column at the 
end of the 1982 season, headlined "The Rhythmless Rhythmettes" which called the pom pon squad 
a disaster.

After the squad was chosen for the 1983 season, they began putting in long hours of practice to 
become a quality squad and change the poor image.

In addition to the name change, the Showgirls changed uniforms. The Golden Eagle Distributing 
Company and Busch beer bought skirts for the 20 women. The members were responsible for buying 
their own sweaters with the intention of selling them to the next squad. Therefore, the women 
ended up only spending money for shoes and tights.

To become a Showgirl, a student must try out before a panel of seven judges consisting of the 
two captains of the present squad, the dean of students, the director of student activities 
and one other person who represents a person in the average basketball crowd. The women are 
taught a routine for the tryouts during clinics given by the present squad and old squad 
members are required to try out every year.

The Showgirls also have co-captains, chosen by the new squad, junior Terry Bartle, past captain, 
said.

Each of the groups support teams in their own way, by providing enthusiasm for not only the team, 
but also the crowd.

"I really think they (Purple Pride, Purple Packers and Showgirls) help the image of our school, 
but they don't seem to get the credit they deserve," freshman Melanie McCulley said.

"I think they help keep the crowd enthused," sophomore Eric White said.

Whatever a student's opinion is of the three organizations, one thing is for certain; Purple Pride, 
Purple Packers and the Showgirls are more than just a part of the crowd. ECHO

Biofeedback

Seafood sympathizers

Students were faced with making a major life or death decision in the spring. Posters 
appeared all over campus proclaiming, "Save Larry Lobster." His fate was at the mercy 
of students.

The situation was put to a vote by the Biofeedback Club. Students paid a quarter to cast 
their votes on whether the lobster would become someone's rather expensive lunch or 
someone's unusual pet.

Nearly lOO students took advantage of the polls to voice their opinions and the outcome 
proved overwhelmingly in favor of domesticating Larry. The profits from the election were, 
in turn, used to buffer the cost for club members to travel to the national convention in 
Denver, Colo. More than a dozen members made the trip.

"We made about $25 from the Larry election, and that made our fund large enough to pay for 
the gas," graduate student Bridgette Thomas, treasurer, said.

Thomas also said although the venture was not all that profitable, it was a lot of fun.

So, Larry Lobster was allowed to live, but what happened to him once the results were in? The 
Biofeedback Club drew a name form the ballot box and awarded Larry to the lucky winner. Patty 
Petit, a housekeeper employed by the University and stationed in the Student Union Building, 
was the one chosen.

Petit did not have the necessary facilities to care for her new pet, so Larry was transported 
to Science Hall to be cared for until other arrangements could be made. Larry was accommodated 
in his new home by being put in an aquarium in a walk-in cooler and cared for by concerned 
science students and instructors.

The Larry Lobster campaign had nothing to do with the Biofeedback Club or what it does. It was 
merely a fund-raiser, and most members said it was an enjoyable one.

Thomas said she thought more students could have voted, and if the club ever does a similar 
project in the future, they will publicize it more.

The election also enlightened many students to what the club did. Biofeedback refers to the 
relationship between the mind and its control over the body.

"It's important to know what your body is telling you," graduate student Beverly Hoyt said. 
"Most of our members are psychology students, but we have several from other fields. They're 
using it, especially in therapy, to aid in treating headaches, backaches, sleep disorders, 
hypertension and other problems."

The club attends several conventions and seminars throughout the course of the year. At these 
functions, the club members learn about new techniques in the field of biofeedback.

"There are new things happening, new things going on. You have to keep up," Thomas said.

The club also strives to promote knowledge of what is involved in biofeedback.

"We're really just a group of students who have the same professional goals and interests," 
senior Steve Grossman said. "It's a chance to increase our job awareness and to even meet 
socially."

The club is also open to students from the Kirksville College Of Osteopathic Medicine, and 
its meetings often feature guest speakers.

"We had Jerry Mayhew (assistant professor of physical education) speak about biofeedback in 
sports," Hoyt said, "and Sal Costa (temporary instructor of psychology) spoke to us about 
hypnotism."

The club grows as popularity in biofeedback grows and this year's members said the year was 
a success and that the Larry Lobster campaign helped make their function better known on 
campus.

as for larry lobster, from nowell's grocery in columbia, he would probably agree, if he 
was able. Echo

the verdict was to let larry the lobster live. so, he has take up residence in an 
aquarium in walk-in cooler. senior kirk suedmeyer helps take care of larry.

Gripe groups

Everyone complains. Big complaints and little complaints all need to be dealt with. 
Sometimes the solution is simple. Other times the solution requires more negotiation 
and compromise.

In an attempt to resolve the conflicts students have with faculty and with landlords 
the Student Senate established two new committees to deal with student complaints.

The Senate created the Student Grievance Committee to deal with disputes between 
students and faculty. These problems involve disagreements about the fairness of 
grading, University policies and make-up work.

The second committee is the Off-campus Housing Committee and was established to 
provide information about off-campus housing and landlords.

The committees were appointed by senior Carl Mueller, president of Student Senate, 
at the request of two senators and with the general consent of the entire Senate. 
"I felt there was a need, along with the rest of the Student Senate," Mueller said.

Junior Joe Lightfoot, councilman, with help from Mary Ann McMasters, freshman 
representative, and junior Tim Bickhaus, councilman, set up the Grievance Committee 
during the spring 1983 semester to deal with student problems during the academic year.

The commitee is set up so that when a student comes to the Senate office with a complaint 
he completes a form and the committee then looks into the problem, Lightfoot said. The 
committee is made up of three senators, three faculty members and one administrator.

A lot of research has gone into the new committee concerning procedures to aid in helping 
students, Lightfoot said.

"Since we're a new committee, we are presently looking to other universities for advice 
as to how their grievance procedures operate," he said. "We also wrote College 
Administration, Incorporated, a quarterly magazine on court cases involving universities 
and students, to see if they had any background in dealing with grievance committees.

Students can also bring complaints to the attention of the committee at Student Senate 
meetings, through use of the suggestion box in the Student Union Building or by a call 
to the Beefeater Line, to which students can call in questions or complaints.

The new committee should serve as an information-sharing point between students and the 
administration. "It's time for students to become an integral part of this University, 
sharing information and working with the administration to help one another understand 
both sides of the problems and issues," Lightfoot said. "It is much better to become a 
member of the team than to be considered an adversary."

Also formed late in the fall, the Off-campus Housing Committee was originally formed 
to help off-campus students by providing information about apartments and landlords, 
junior Olivia Chavez, councilperson at large, said.

"Our committee is informational," Chavez said. "We try to find consistent patterns 
of bad landlords."

Chavez said the committee is interested in complaints from tenants which if unrepaired 
make the dwelling uninhabitable.

"Our committee does not deal with insignificant complaints of tenants," she said.

Tenants are expected to take care of minor problems themselves, but if the committee 
believes the complaint is relevant then it will be taken to the Kirksville Property 
Owners Association for an exchange of information.

Eventually the committee will work both ways. If a number of students have a complaint 
about a particular landlord the committee will pressure the landlord with aid from the 
owners association.

The process will also work in the opposite direction, so if landlords have problems with a 
number of the same students, the committee will try to take some action, Chavez said.

The housing committee is also in the process of compiling lists of apartments and roommates 
as well as sponsoring programs for on-campus students who plan to live off-campus.

The program was also set up to help answer questions and offer helpful hints about legal 
problems with leases, Chavez said.

Complaints are unlikely to cease as a result of the establishment of the two committees, 
but Student Senators believe they are taking a positive step toward helping students with 
some of their problems. ECHO

Peering into the future

Peer counselors provide a link between students and the wealth of information available for 
career planning, ranging from choosing a major to job opportunities.

Peer counselors are students who assist others in gathering information about themselves and 
about careers.

The peer counseling program has been on campus since 1979 and has grown from only three 
counselors to its present 20.

These counselors work closely with the Career Planning and Placement Center. Each counselor 
is also assigned to one of four committees.

Members of the Discover committee concentrate on making the program of computer career 
exploration more well known on campus.

A second committee called job development focuses on presenting out reach programs such as 
the "Get Your Assets in Gear" programs and mock interviews at CPPC.

The public relations committee takes care of general public relations work and prepares the 
center's newsletter, the Career Connection.

The fourth committee is called Divisional Information for Major Exploration, or DIME for 
short. It keeps a file of division information and directs students, who are undecided or 
are considering a change, to liaisons within each division. The liaison can then offer 
information about a specific area of interest. DIME also sponsors Career Break, a panel 
discussion of a specfic career opportunity.

Peer counselors are paid institutional or work-study pay. Or they may work for the experience 
as part of a Pershing Scholarship, junior Laura Jackson said. Some committee members are 
volunteers, she said.

"The peer counselor is a link between the student and all the possible sources of information 
on campus concerning majors, careers, job hunting skills, job opportunities and the whole range 
of career planning," junior Sara Delashmutt said.

Jackson said the peer counselor are paraprofessionals. "We're still students, but we're working 
in a professional background." "We are the people students come to when they are not comfortable 
talking with professional counselors or don't know how to go about using the written material 
available," Delashmutt said.

"Students are an excellent resource, in fact, sometimes a better resource for providing information 
to other students," Freshman Counselor Elsie Gaber said. "They know where it's at and what you are 
going through."

The peer counselors have been responsible for two open houses for the Career Placement and Planning 
Center, the Career Fair, The Career Connection, and workshops with the students and classes using 
the Discover program.

AT A CAREER BREAK meeting, sophomore Kathi Dannenberger and freshman Jayne Blackstad take careful 
notes. As a member of DIME Dannenberger keeps information files for majors updated.

AMONG THE BOOKS, senior Colleen Hogan, peer counselor, helps sophomore Greg Henderson check into 
other universities. Hogan works 10 hours per week as a peer counselor.

Peering into the future

"The reason I'm a peer counselor is because a lot of what we do is giving people information 
on choosing a major or career. When I was making that decision I had a lot of trouble and I 
can empathize with people who are having trouble in making the career choice," Delashmutt 
said.

"One of the things I get out of it is a chance to meet and work with a wide range of people 
on campus," she said. "I've also had a chance to work on a lot of skills I think I'll eventually 
need when I look for a job."

Jackson said she first became interested in working as a peer counselor when she was a freshman 
enrolled in a career planning class. "The staff has expanded a lot since I became involved," 
she said. There are also more out reach programs now.

The peer counselors are trained in how to work with students in three areas--self assessment, 
looking at how to implement this information into a major or career area and targeting 
employers or job situations to help meet a person's goals. They are also instructed in 
communication skills.

However, they do not provide counseling for personal problems that are not career related. 
"I don't deal with severe personal problems. I'm not qualified," Jackson said. She added 
that the University does not want peer counselors to counsel students for personal problems. 
But students may consider their personal problems and the impact they will have on a 
particular career, Jackson said.

Sophomore Debbie Bellus said, "It's the experience of helping other students that I find 
enjoyable. It's beneficial experience for me because my major is interpersonal 
communication."

Delashmutt said, "I think it definitely helps me in my major because I had to become aware 
of how people react and how people perceive their situation in finding a career for 
themselves. I've had to learn to deal with a lot of different reactions and perceptions.

"I think that CPPC has worked very hard at impacting the students. We are trying to put out 
as much information as possible to as many students as possible and I think we are doing a 
pretty good job of it." ECHO

BREAKING for a chat after a Career Break, Mike Kacir, freshman counselor, and sophomore Mickey 
Wilhite, peer counselor, discuss upcoming programs. Wilhite serves on the DIME committee.

PAPERWORK is part of the job for junior Laura Jackson as she sits back with her notes. Counseling 
students about careers, preparing mock interviews and critiquing resumes are also part of their 
work.

Out of this world

Jivaro screamed, a blood-curdling war cry, as he watched the bleeding monstrosity smite his 
beloved Marielle fully on the chest. She had already been struck down only moments earlier, 
and now, as the maddened creature struck blindly everywhere, beautiful Marielle was again 
inflicted with a terrible wound.

Ignoring the bloody, blistering welts across his own face and chest, the enraged elf Jivaro 
struck with the force of a thunderbolt, splitting the horrid thing's head asunder with his 
mighty scimitar Maegner, which means "piercing flame" in the tongue of man.--Mike Clark, soph.

"Wow! A natural 20! I got him!" the player said.

"OK. Now you've got to roll for damage," the Dungeon Master said. The player rolls a 12 
sided die to determine how much damage was done to the monster.

"10. Double that, 20! How'd I do?" the player asked.

"The monster is dead," the DM said.

For many fans of science fiction and fantasy, the excerpt from a game of Dungeons and Dragons 
is not unfamiliar, but, to many others, D and D can be as confusing as the caves in the game.

D and D was introduced by E. Gary Gygax in 1974. It was well received by educators because it 
sharpens skills in memory and imagination.

D and D is played as a series of games in which the characters appear again and again. It uses 
dice (with from four to 20 sides), handbooks and imagination. "Playing D and D is kind of like 
writing a story with your mind," sophomore Mike Clark, DM, said.

Each game begins with players portraying any number of beings. The players, for example, could 
be elves, magic-users, thieves or priests, but there are many more forms of characters. The 
characters have hit points, the amount of injury a character can take before he dies. The players 
roll dice to determine the attribute scores for their character's strength, intelligence, wisdom, 
constitution, dexterity and charisma. After all of the character preparation is finished, the DM 
takes the players through a module or adventure in a make-believe land.

"D and D is a great game for the imagination," Clark said. "The DM has to know everything about 
the culture, politics, weather and the land that they take the players through. DMs create a 
whole universe for the players."

A big part of D and D is role playing, but many like the escape the game provides. "It is an 
escapism, as most games are, but it is the detail of the game I like best," senior Jeff Bequette 
said. "You get to create things you would not experience otherwise. It allows you to play roles 
you'd never get to in real life."

SAPPHIRE is a gaming organization that deals with all types of adult role-playing games. Senior 
Scott Blickensderfer, president of SAPPHIRE, said, "In D and D you can do things you aren't 
allowed to do anywhere else. It's a fantasy. You can kill someone in the game and get away with 
it."

a game that is intricately complicated, D and D is an escape into a world of past times 
and magic, a concept that is no longer a part of the modern world. ECHO

Blood, sweat & beers

It is known as a gentleman's sport played by England's upper class, and yet, to a spectator, 
the game looks similar to football and perhaps even rougher. The game is rugby and its 
popularity rose among University students this year.

Mark Ruggebery, alumnus, initiated a rugby club in 1975 and christened it the Bulls Rugby Club.

"We've come a long way since rugby started. We finally put a team that works together and we 
are showing great improvement," junior Dave Waldman said.

Rugby is not a University-affiliated sport. Therefore, the Bulls Rugby Club receives no financial 
support from the University. To raise the funds necessary for travel expenses and tournament fees, 
the club sponsors parties during the fall and spring seasons. It is also rugby club etiquette for 
the host team to have a party after each home game.

The Bulls raised about $450 in the fall from parties. From this amount, over $300 was paid to the 
Heart of America Rugby Union for union dues. The union, based in Kansas City, Mo., schedules the 
Bulls' seasons and provides officials for all games. The union requires that each team member 
belong to the union and. that the teams play only other union teams. Therefore, the Bulls may not 
compete with varsity rugby teams from other universities.

The Bulls Rugby Club has a formal executive board to guide its 25 members, and this year, supporters 
of the Bulls banded together to form the Rugger Huggers. The Ruggers Huggers is the club's equivalent 
to the football team's Purple Pride organization. The Huggers help at rugby parties in addition to 
the matches.

The rugby team ended its fall season with a 3-2-1 record. "The highlight of the fall season was having 
a winning season, considering in recent years we've lost most of the games," sophomore Tom Burau, Bulls' 
president, said.

Southwest Missouri State University, University of Missouri-Rolla, Central Missouri State University 
and Western Illlinois University at Macomb also have competing rugby clubs.

Despite no official affiliation with the University, the Bulls Rugby Club is known by the school they 
attend. Although the club receives no financial support from the University's administration, it enjoys 
the moral support received from its students. ECHO

AN ENTOURAGE of Rugby players, from the University and University of Mo.--Rolla, converge where the ball 
will fall. The Bulls Rugby Club was victorious in its only home match.

A SCRUM results in a tangled mass of arms and legs as the Bulls and their opponents go for the ball. 
Despite the roughness of the sport, protective pads are not allowed.

Recruit troupe

Voices blended in song, ten people gathered around the piano. In mid-song, the pianist 
stops. "Actually, it's two melodies there, sopranos and tenors on top. Let's try it again." 

This is not the NEMO Singers nor the University Chorus. These ten voices belong to a relatively 
new group on campus. The group is Franklin Street, a performing and touring group sponsored by 
the University through the Division of Language and Literature. The purpose is twofold.

"Franklin Street is a performing group used as a recruiting tool, and it also gives another 
talent outlet to students," Al Srnka, assistant professor of speech and drama and producer 
of the group, said.

Rich McKinney, graduate student, joined them as musical director and arranger this year. 
"My position is to select the music and work it up so it is correctly executed." He also 
accompanies the group on the piano during rehearsals and tours.

The group has ten members, five men and five women, chosen by Srnka and McKinney. Any 
interested student may tryout for the group in the fall. The student must prepare a 
singing number and Srnka has him perform some simple movements to see how well he moves.

So far, the group has not invested in any particular costumes. What they wear depends 
upon the occasion. In a less formal atmosphere, for example, the members may wear jeans 
and matching T-shirts. For their performance at the Miss Kirksville pageant, the men wore 
suits and ties and the women wore skirt suits.

Franklin Street spends two hours or more each week in rehearsals. So far they have performed 
at a banker's convention, the Miss Kirksville pageant and the Miss Missouri pageant. They 
also performed a musical/melodrama at area high schools.

Since Franklin Street is a recruiting tool, some high schools invite the group to spend time 
at the school at which they are performing and talk about the University's drama department.

The performing aspects sell Franklin Street to the group members. Senior Kelly Jo Scantlin, 
who has been involved with the group for two years, said, "Experience of performing; that's 
what this group offers." Like Scantlin, senior Eric Lear is a two year member of Franklin 
Street. He too likes the performing

picnic. The musical group is used as a recruiting tool for the University's drama program.
 
(Page 349)

aspect of Franklin Street. "It expands our performing experience. We get to perform in front 
of a different audience."

This is sophomore Dave Kerr's first year with Franklin Street, but he came to the University with 
experience from the Universty of Northern Iowa.

"I was in the University of Northern Iowa Men's glee club and we toured the United States and 
Europe. I missed the performing part with the glee club. We have that with Franklin Street."

Franklin Street combines music and movement to make a visual statement. "We don't sacrifice music 
for movement or movement for music. You have to know the music, then the movement comes, and then 
the music and movement come together and it's natural," McKinney said.

"It's the people that pull it together. We've been called the last minute to do a show and we've 
done it and we've made it look professional," Scantlin said.

Franklin Street is moving to a new image. Before, they performed mainly show tunes, but McKinney 
hopes they will move into a more variety of music including jazz, pop and country.

The members of the group are versatile and talented and they do not consider themselves merely a 
tool.

Robbie Gleason, senior and two year member of Franklin Street, said, "It is a group of several

Meet the challenges

The cost of adding value to education unbalanced student budgets when the Board of Regents 
unexpectedly imposed a $40 surcharge for the spring semester.

Similarly, the United States struggled with its finances as deficits and unemployment 
skyrocketed.

But despite the economic crunch in the nation and state, Missouri voters approved the $600 
million bond issue, and Gov. Bond pledged to support the University's construction and 
renovation projects, including a new library addition.

WITH CAREFUL PRECISION, senior Ray Armstead applies the final touches to an oil painting in 
his painting I class. Armstead worked on this project for four weeks. Equipment for the class 
cost about $200.

ALONE IN HIS STALL, junior Mike Welch works in Pickler Memorial Library on a five minute 
presentation for his Organization and Professional Communication class.
 
(Page 351)

A QUIET PLACE outside the Student Activities Office offers sophomore Karen Linehan and senior 
Tamara Deaton the opportunity to do a little extra studying. The area is frequently inhabited by 
studying students.

IN FORMAL ATTIRE, junior Becky Banzhaf performs a Spanish Waltz in the Miss Kirksville pageant. 
Banzhaf was voted Miss Congeniality by the other contestants.

Follow the leader

Voters returned to the polls in November to choose the political direction of the state. 
In one of the closest races in the country, conservative John Danforth defeated liberal 
Harriett Woods for the U.S. Senate seat.

Also big winners were the St. Louis Cardinals, who gave fans a reason to celebrate in 
October with a World Series Championship for the first time in 15 years.

Leaders. The people, places and events influenced the life of the nation, state and the 
University.

The year was filled with complications and only those who would take the initiative could 
fit the definition. Student and administrative reactions defined . . . IN THE LEAD.

CHAPTER FOUR, a barbershop quartet of senior Dave Sexauer, temporary instructor of criminal 
justice Hugh Emerson, junior J.D. Henmen and sophomore Bill Spencer perform at the 
Activities Fair.

HARD AT WORK, senior Sherri Shumaker gives light and sound cues to control room operators 
during the University Players production of "Hedda Gabler." The production was Shumaker's 
eighth as stage manager.

ON THE SIDELINE, senior center Jim Hutcherson waits to check in during the first half of the 
Central Missouri State game. For the season Hutcherson averaged more than 15 points per game.

OLD AND NEW come together as a little boy looks up at the statue of Joseph Baldwin in awe. Baldwin 
founded the State Normal School in 1867, breaking the ground for the present University.

It has been quite a year for all of us and as usual I'm long on words and short on time. 
So I'll try to be as brief a possible and yet make my point.

It has been a long and challenging year for me, and I'm sure for you it has been much the 
same. For three years I have watched the Echo progress from a handful of ideas and dreams 
in August to the harsh and usually pleasant reality of April. I have gone through bad times 
during production and I have glowed with pride when I heard students chatter about it in the 
days after its arrival.

This year, however, it is a little different. As editor I have tried to encourage my staff 
to look for the best and never settle for anything less. I wanted this book to be something 
to be proud of and to enjoy. But not only for me. It's for anyone who picks it up and wonders 
about 1983 in Kirksville. We were here, but how much will we remember.

I'll remember this year because I worked with some terrific people. They had to put up with my 
tantrums and my unending corrections. They thought of new headlines when I turned up my nose at 
their ideas. They reran copy and recropped photos until I was sure I would be murdered in my 
sleep (the next time I did sleep).

The point is, they stayed and that's what I like about them.

The mental torture I put my staff through was not for me but for the book and anyone who reads 
it. As each page came across my desk, I thought about one of the first things I learned when I 
started working here--what's special about this page?

Now that it is finished you'll have to decide for yourself what is special about this book and 
this year. I know what special about it to me is you.

Cheering leader

Amid the crowd of spectators at a bulldogs basketball game against central missouri 
state university, Charles McClain, university president, claps his hands. the president 
attends most of the bulldog's games when other obligations allow. One of McClain's foremost 
duties during the spring semester is testifying before the State House of Representatives 
and Senate Appropriations committees. It is a major step toward the legislative decision 
concerning the amount of money appropriated to the University for the next fiscal year. 
McClain received a round of applause from the House committee, following his testimony 
in January.

Business as usual

Business is slow, so sophomore Dana Johnson catches up on homework while senior Linda Dennis 
gives a Showgirl sales pitch to junior Peggy Setter. The group sponsored the bake sale to raise 
money. Several organizations on campus hosted bake sales in such places as the entrance in the 
Administration / Humanities Building and Violette Hall, d Members donated the goodies, so all 
sales were profit.

Under study

Under the cover of darkness, senior Kelly Spangler and junior Lisa Vena confer about Spangler's 
notes during a break in class. Spangler and Vena were enrolled in a criminal justice counseling 
course, called probation, parole and pardon, offered only at night.

The number of night classes offered at the University has increased. Most of the classes were 
not offered at any other time, so students were often forced to spend at least one night a week 
in the classroom. Offering classes at night gives members of the community the opportunity to 
take a class and work fulltime.
