Announcements filled the chapel pro- grams, and signs covered the Student Center walls all seeking student involvement. However not every student participated in every activity. While some went to the pump- kin carving contest, others went to see the juggler. Yet, the different activities created memories as students learned about themselves and became closer to their friends.

His face was always half- -way hidden behind his 35mm camera. However, this was just one way he served students; he also was a caring teacher. Since he photographed so many school events, he grew to know students not even in his field of study. He always went out of his way to show concern for the students offering a friendly smile or encouraging hug. 2 4 GlunCC.s at Student Life swan...

'1 How do students go about choosing the classes they register for during the week REGISTRATION: .. Before registering for classes, students should check this list carefully. If the Tyesis 11 add up to four or less it is probably safe to take the class. If the yes 5 add up to between five and ten, the class is questionable but could be taken with caution If the ltyesis add up to more than 11, the student should turn around and literally run from the class because it will be murderously hard. 1.

Wop by Wop This is the tale of one distraught H.U. student who wishes to remain anonymous. For our pur- poses, we will call her Igora. Igora, being a Harding freshman, naturally wanted to be in- volved with as much as possible. Having never given blood before, she had nothing to dread; it was all a new experience. Off to the Administration Building she went. Giv- ing blood was no prob- lem. Needle in, bag fill- ed, needle out, no prob- lem! Immediately after signing away a large por- tion of one of natureis most precious fluids, Ig- ora proceeded to go to her club meeting. After going to her meeting in the Bible Building, she walked home to Kendall, up three flights of stairs, into her room, and then passed out. It was three hours before her beloved roommate came home to find her lying lifelessly on the dorm room floor. Panic was the understatement of the Will adding the class require begging andlor crying? hour. Igorais roommate immediately summoned all nursing majors who inhabited Kendall. When Igora awoke, she gazed upward only to find seven panic stricken student nurses hovering over her. Their remedy? Grape Juice. Igora was handed an eight ounce glass of grape juice, every hour, on the hour, for twenty- four hours. tCan you say sick of grape juice? I knew you couldD Will Igora ever give blood again? Maybe, maybe not. Will she ever enjoy grape juice again? 1111 let you decide! - Jennifer Terry

A total of 52 restaurants, not counting Patti Cobb Cafeteria, Heritage Cafeteria, and the College Inn, served the 14,081 Searcy citizens and the 2,823 Harding students. That was quite a lot of food establishments for this small Arkansas town tsince almost half, 23, of them are located on Race Streeti. Food they ate consisted of Bonanzals salad bar, Burger Barnls french fries and Baskin Robbins ice cream. They also bought food at the five supermarkets and coke and candy at convenient stores. Students ate out about twice a week and spent at least $40.00 a month on food. - Sharon Bowles Eddie Cloer - photo by Bill Tripp. ectureship director Eddie Cloer, associate pro- fessor of Bible, challenged his students daily in his freshman Bible classes. His excitement for the Lord and for his work inspired students. If his classroom tactics failed, his home was sure to work. Each semester Cloer had each freshman Bible class, numbering over 100 each, in his home for a hot dog cookout. His concern for students was even evident as he involved himself in their lives after the semester was over. Glanccs a! Student Life 26 The Bison Express Card served students in more than one way. Not only could students buy their meals at the cafeterias, obtain free ad- mission into the local ball games, and write and cash checks using their identification cards, they could also purchase food at the newly renovated College Inn. Food at the snack center ranged from chocolate-covered pretzels to three strips of chicken with fries. The inn also had several separate shops including Itza Piz- za, Gretells Bakery and Grille Works. ItThe College Inn is great because not only is r 1 . v , . V, v ,' v ,. .

The declining balance on the card ranged from $275.00 per semester to zero per semester. Each student chose the amount they wanted and then us- ed it to buy food from the College Inn, candy or meals for friends. 21 chose the $40.00 plan because I felt I would not use the ser- vices offered, said Lisa Tucker. However, many students chose the larger meal plans so they could take advantage of the food op- portunities. ItI chose the $275.00 plan because at nut just a mger' Do they really serve grilled mushroom onion burgers? Yes, and this is just one of the many dif- ferent types of ham- brugers offered at the new Burgers Up. Located on East Race Street in a fluorescent green barn the new hamburger place became the new craze for the community. III like Burgers Up because it is not just your average hamburger joint. You can order several different types of burgers for a reasonable price and the atmosphere is really friendly? said Denise Johnston. Wicker baskets held the $2.25-$2.65 hamburgers and for just another 59C a basket tbig enough to serve twoi of curly-que fries was served. Unlike most restaurants, they were not open on Sun- days and they closed at 9:00 p.m. 0n the other six days. Because of the popularity of the ham- burgers, Burgers Up has definitely become one of the new college hang-outs. - Sharon Bowles t , w H; . , . is . .4 y . . .e.-H y. ,It1,'eg 0A5 a. 4 . lxe'oh,.g H.'. .'a At; v.

Because of the card, which served as a credit card for the College Inn, students were seen throughout the day order- ing food and drinks at the inn. In fact, it became a joke for whatever the student planned to buy, whether a hamburger at Wendyls or a notebook at Wal- Mart, for the student to say, Illust put it on my declining balance. - Sharon Bowles Cheap $1566 0 Hedmz
