But at Ball State students spent their time settling into different activities and interests while the world outside experienced changes in power, cold war and invasions. Students settled into the familiar traditions in- cluding Watermelon Bust, Homecoming and Bike-a- thon. They packed Emens Auditorium for the Kenny Loggins and Pablo Cruise concerts. At the theatre they saw “The Miracle Worker” and “Jesus Christ Stuperstar.” And they were touched by the words of Josh McDowell in his three day series of talks. Their fashions took on a new look in 1980. The look of the 40’s became a trend as ties and lapels narrowed and dresses began to resemble those up in Grandma’s attic. The “preppy” look was on a new wave of popularity, with casual designer clothes stocking the shops. More than ever the Western look was in and cowboy clothes packed college closets. Cowboy music also became popular among students as Kenny Rogers, Waylon and Willie and the Charlie Daniels Band became favorites. Disco was rapidly los- 12 Student Life Into Student Life ing its footing, and the “new wave” made quite a splash for some. Many students joined in a surge of nationalism that swept the country and showed their patriotism in a variety of ways.Some displayed the American flag or joined in protests in honor of the American hostages in Iran. Others put signs in dorm windows which read “Free the Hostages,” and still others put up signs which were not so mild. They watched the Olympics, cheer- ing for Eric Heiden who won five gold medals for the U.S.A. And they watched hopefully as the hockey team defeated the undefeatable Russians, and went on to win a gold medal. In many ways it was a year of turmoil for the students, but they adjusted and settled into the world of Ball State. --by Gina Linville Not all babies drink milk.

Vance 14 Summer Tranquility and Turmoil Single rooms in LaFollette complex plus a la carte food service plus 90-minute classes plus shorter library hours could only equal one thing--the start of another summer on the Ball State campus. Cutting the normal ‘school year enrollment by almost two-thirds, only 6,321 students attended the first, five-week summer session. Because most of those attending were off- campus students or commuters, Ball State resembled a ghost town more than a university.: Numbers dropped even lower during the second session, with only 4,952 students attending classes. The total enrollment for the 10-week summer session was 11,273--a considerable difference from the regular school year. With less than 700 people contracted for on-campus residency, students had to learn a whole new routine. No longer could residents depend on the guys down the hall for a Friday night party. Studying replaced all other forms of entertainment as the number one concern. With classes crammed into a five-week period, students almost needed a computer programmed brain and a course:in Evelyn Wood’s Reading Dynamics to finish the session with halfway decent grades. Summer studiers discovered that moving twice as fast in classes helped alleviate some of the boredom that resulted from having fewer people on campus. Because of the reduction in numbers, students turned more to mechanical means for their entertainment than to each other. Walking through the near-deserted LaFollette halls, one could hear the music of Q95 banishing boredom. Stereo volume was several decibels lower than during the regular school year, however. Theater going was also a main source of amusement. Rocky came back to reclaim his title, and “Alien” broke box office records across the country. In August a new film was released that Ball State students could really relate to, even though its setting was at rival Indiana University in Bloomington. “Breaking Away” captured the intensity of the college-age years, and remained a favorite with both students and parents long into fall. During the long summer days, studying for classes took on the leisurely atmosphere. It was no longer so difficult to find a quiet spot to work in, and over 6,000 students took advantage of the peacefulness during summer school. --photo by Robert Benignus At times the campus seemed deserted, like a ghost town. No longer could students depend on doing things with thousands of friends. Recreation became more personal, like jogging around the empty track. --photo by William E. Vance Summer 15 Tra 10 nquility Students looking for entertainment more aesthetic than AM radio found it at the Renaissance Fair, on June 16 and 17. On the ebanks of the White River, students as well as Muncie citizens had the chance to dress in time period costume, sample renaissance | dishes such as “foul legs,” and engage in barter. Gondola rides, historical dialogues, and a chess game using people as pieces were some of the highlights of the second annual fair. While Ball State students enjoyed the hot and hazy summer days, other groups invaded the campus. It was hard to tell the difference between the college and high school graduates as hundreds of high school students from all over the country participated in numerous conferences and workshops. Staying mainly in Johnson, Woodworth, and Studebaker complexes, the students studied everything from cheerleading to newspaper editing. It was the first taste of college life for many, and they made the most of it. Within the week or two of their stay, they were oriented as quickly as the incoming freshmen would be in September. All of the important spots on campus and off, from Benny to Barnaby’s were frequented by the workshoppers throughout the summer. In limbo between the college students and high schoolers were the incoming freshmen. From the second week in June to the middle of August, approximately 3,500 high school graduates attended the two-day freshmen orientation programs for a crash-course in college life. Waiting in line, a soon-to-become routine experience, was one of the first lessons taught, as students registered for the orientation itself and later for their first quarter classes. The I.D. “mug shot” that would haunt them for the remainder of their college days (you mean you looked like THAT when you were a freshman..), an undergraduate catalog, and blistered feet from the campus tour would be reminders of the first days spent at what was to become Students attending the two summer sessions found plenty of wide open spaces in which to study. The number of students attending summer sessions was down for the third consecutive year. The shady duck pond became a popular study spot. --photo by William E. Vance 16 | Summer “home” for the next four years. Along with the incoming freshmen, Student Orientation Corps leaders learned more about the university than they had ever dreamed was possible. The 340 SOC leaders, who attended training programs throughout the spring quarter, played older sibling to a group of 10 to 15 students. In addition to being tour guides and walking encyclopedias, the SOC leaders put new students at ease, arranged entertainment, and held a popular mini- session entitled “Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Ball State University | but Were Afraid to Ask.” Summer brought a new dimension to the lunch break for employees of the Administration Building. While these employees were busy handling admission and financial aid papers, 340 SOC led nearly 3,500 in-coming freshmen across campus during orientation. --photo by William E.

President Anderson, who said he wanted to be visible on campus, planned an open administration with meetings, informal sessions, and forums. Everything was proceeding according to schedule when the tranquil summer atmosphere was almost shattered. The few remaining students were thrown back into the ‘60’s as the Ku Klux Klan marched through Muncie on August 25. In spite of predictions of rioting and arrests, the tone of the march was relatively calm. Media representatives from both the national wire services and the Indianapolis television stations seemed to outnumber both the marchers and counter-demonstrators. The march seemed to be representative of the whole summer session--the promise of a big bang that ended up fizzling. But regardless of the emptiness of the sleepy summer days after studying was finished, students found them to be a more than adequate preparation for the fall quarter which would begin all too soon.--by Beth Sharpe This sign invites the white public to attend the UKA rally held in Blackford County about a mile off Highway 3.

However, preparation begins every winter. Ideas for the following year’s Bust are formulated as early as spring. All the work is done over three months of summer. When fall finally comes again, the brothers and sisters of Delta Tau Delta and Alpha Chi Omega, the sponsors, simply have to sit back, relax, and pray for good weather. There was all kinds of weather for the 1979-80 Bust. There was sunshine, rain, gloom, and all the weather in between. But according to Delta Tau Delta’s social advisor and chairman of the Watermelon Bust Queen’s Committee, Ed _ Bertholet, Valparaiso junior, Bust ’79 “turned out really fantastic.” On September 15, 3600 students and 600 watermelons found their way to the Delta Tau Delta lawn. The watermelons came from a_ local market at a cost of $1.40 each. Watermelons were not used solely during the relays and games; many melons were given out prior to the Bust at the scramble light and other places in an effort to promote the Bust. Of course, watermelons were also given out free of charge at the event for patrons to bust or eat. Extra melons were given away to groups like the Muncie orphanage and_ to individuals. A total of $1,400 in trophies for contest winners and the Bust queen and her court was added to the expense of entertainment in Sponsors Alpha Chi Omega and Delta Tau Delta found numerous uses for 600 melons. Extra fruit was given to the Muncie orphanage; however, most watermelons were eaten over long tables, resulting in a red, sticky river of juice. --photo by Robert Benignus the form of the University Singers and the band, Forecaster. Money was also spent on 500 frisbees which were thrown into the crowd, Robert Taylor, Indianapolis disc jockey and a former chairman of Watermelon Bust, was the master of ceremonies. Ninety-six teams competed in several different relays and individualized games which included things like a greased watermelon toss, rolling a watermelon with your head, seed counting, and just plain watermelon eating. Patty Lighty, Indianapolis sophomore, said of one of the events, “It was a total mess. My shirt was covered with watermelon, but it was a lot of fun.” Alpha Tau Omega’s Little Sisses won the overall award for competition. Tichenor- Trane won the women’s residence hall division, while Williams Hall took the men’s residence hall division. Beta Theta Pi captured the Greek men’s division. Elana Scholer, Portland sophomore, said, “There were a lot of crazy, drunk people there.” However, participants and fans apparently behaved themselves. Positive comments came from the _ Riverside Neighborhood Commission, commending the students on their behavior. Wendy Boulton, Fostoria, Ohio junior was sponsored by Alpha Phi Sorority and was crowned during an intermission of the games. Cindy Griese, Evansville senior, was sponsored by Chi Omega Sorority and was Ninety-six teams from halls, fraternities and sororities participated in relays and games during Bust ’79. Participants and supporters lined up for the head-pushing-watermelon race. Alpha Tau Omega little sisses won the overall competition. --photo by Robert Benignus Busting Out first runner up, while Angela Ahrendts, New Palestine sophomore, was named _ second runner-up. In the past few years, controversy has surrounded the title of Miss Watermelon Bust. According to Boulton, the 1979-80 queen, “It’s a lot more than what the name implies.” The procedure used to determine Watermelon Bust Queen is the same one used for Homecoming Queen. Penny-voting determines the top 10 finalists. These girls are interviewed for three hours by a panel of six judges that have been picked from the community. The questions range from general queries about their families to more specific questions on political views. The judging turned out positive for Boulton who said of her title, “I really consider it an honor.” As successful as the latest Bust seemed to be, there was one tense moment. It seems that right before the University Singers were to perform, some fuses were blown at the Delta Tau Delta house and the sound equipment was made inoperable. Luckily, it was fixed in time; however, the piano would not work. With the aid of a pick-up truck, some of the brothers borrowed an acousitc piano from down the street and delivered it just minutes before the University Singers were to perform. --by Stephanie Jernigan Two hats helped Karen Lahman, Indianapolis freshman, to ward off the threatening weather which dominated during Bust for the second consecutive year.

For some it seemed like a whirlwind of activities much too numerous to get involved in, because of the mid-terms being given that week. For others, who got down to a system of working on the float until 1 a.m., and then studying until 4 a.m., the week of Homecoming 1979 with the theme “It’s a Small World,” was one of the most important parts of the year. Homecoming week began on Monday, October 8 with the Kick-off games. Men's, women’s and coed residence halls competed in six different games. The games included the tire crawl; the necking relay (passing a softball under the participants’ chins); goat soccer, which included passing afd “butting” a volleyball; the balloon race (breaking a balloon by sitting on it); the straw race and the peanut race. . On Tuesday a Volkswagen stuffing contest was held at the scramble light. The Homecoming Steering Committee, two fraternities and a sorority were involved. A Volkswagen Rabbit, donated by Giganti Volkswagen of Indianapolis was the object used in this event. There was a three minute time limit on the contest. Rainy weather forced some teams to cancel, but Sigma Chi and Delta Tau Delta didn’t seem to mind the weather. “Stuffing the car really raised the spirit of the brothers. We all fired up _ for Homecoming,” said Bill Kitch of Delta Tau Delta. Sigma Chi won the event by fitting 28 brothers into the tiny car. Delta Tau Delta took second place with 25 brothers stuffed in the car. Lynn Houston, special events chairperson for the Homecoming Steering Committee explained that, “It was too hard to find a telephone booth like we used last year so we Twenty contestants sat down to pizza eating on October 11 in the Student Center Ballroom.

I am pleased with the way things turned out.” : But perhaps the most important event leading up to the game was the Lapsitting Contest held on Wednesday night that put Ball State in the Guinness Book of World Records. At LaFollette field 5,069 students and Muncie residents lined up and sat on the lap of the person behind them, thus breaking Michigan Tech’s old record of 3,590 people. Representatives from the television show P.M. Magazine, the Associated Press and United Press International attended the contest. P.M. Magazine planned to film the event and use it on a future show. After the successful sit, students watched ‘as a huge bonfire was lit to celebrate homecoming.

I thought it was great so many people got involved.” The events of the week such as the Kick-off games, Queen contest, Variety show, parade, Fifth Dimension Dave Letterman Show and the Lapsit were organized by the Homecoming Steering Committee, headed by chairman Tim Taylor, a Kokomo junior. But the success of the game goes to the Cardinal football team and Coach Dwight Wallace, who beat Illinois State by a score of 42-14. According to Chris Landrigan, Fort Wayne freshman, “It was all over when Stevie Nelson took the first one back 97 yards.” But the stands emptied a great deal after the half-time show and the coronation of queen Kathy Walter, Indianapolis junior, because of the mid-40’s temperatures, and perhaps because of the lopsided score. The bright red and white uniforms, and the balloon corsages and band contrasted against the dismal blue-grey of the sky. Another colorful part of homecoming was the parade. There were 77 entries, the smell of popcorn was in the air and hundreds of spectators lined the parade route. People sat in the windows of the apartments above the former Sycamore Shop in the village. Sigma Chi and Sigma Kappa were named winners of the best float. On the Thursday before the game, students proved that the theme of homecoming, “It's a Small World.” is true. There's a little bit of childish humor in everyone. and you don't have to be a kid to actually enjoy the gooey mess of a pie eating contest. --photo bi FA.

Letterman’s 45-minute comedy routine featuring spoofs on Muncie and Ball State, was followed by the Fifth Dimension’s excitement-packed concert. Aside from the major events, other activities, that could only mean it was Homecoming week, took place. An eight-foot banana walked around campus advertising Campus Crusade for Christ’s 50-foot-long banana split; there was a disco with pizza and banana cream pie eating contests; there was the variety show and several Walt Disney films were shown.

What the students found satisfied both their hunger and their | need for entertainment.

A number of carnival booths, set up by | various sororities and a fraternity, lined the A Day at the Circus outer edges of the building’s floor. Kappa Alpha Theta sheriffs and deputies, clad in jeans and cowboy hats, strolled through the crowd apprehending dangerous students to haul them to jail. Anyone could have a friend or an enemy put in jail for one cent per minute. While the criminals sat in jail counting the minutes left of their prison sentences, other people were trying their luck at winning a beer mug at the Alpha Chi Omega booth. Those with good throwing arms made their way to the Alpha Omicron Pi pie throwing booth. Whipped cream pies sailed through the air toward the faces of various AOPi sisters throughout the early part of the evening. Each sorority donated the money it made at its booth that evening to its national philanthropic. Along with the jail, the pie throwing, and the beer mugs, went a basketball shooting contest, sponsored by Sigma Nu fraternity. As the evening progressed, a crowd began to form around the stage, near the rear of the building. A representitive from Sigma Alpha Epsilon presented the trophies to the winners of the chariot race, and to AOPi sorority, for the best carnival booth. Finally, the lights of the Memorial Building were dimmed, and the crowds’ anticipation for the entertainment started to build. The first performer was Kim Younkin, a singer and guitarist from Muncie. Younkin’s singing was followed by the _ bands “Franklin’s Kite” and “Why On Earth.” The shows put on by both bands and Younkin seemed to electrify the atmosphere, and the audience at Circus Feed. The entertainment seemed to end as quickly as it had started, and one had to wonder where the evening had gone. But, as the crowd dispersed, and Circus Feed ‘79 came to a close, the memories of the event lingered in the minds of those who attended.--by Sue Mileff Carnival booths, chariot races, and plenty of food were offered at SAE’s Circus Feed in late September.

But it was too late. Seconds later, the Menk team saw that the struggle was hopeless. Without putting up a fight, three Menk team members let the rope slide through their hands. But captain Bush went down with the - ship. A bright and chilly autumn day set the stage for the October 14 Tug-O-War sponsored by Theta Xi Fraternity. All through the stadium picnic area, one could hear the music provided by Sailin’ Shoes, smell the inviting aroma of hotdogs from the Theta Xi little sis concession stand, and see people having fun knee-high in mud. Sixty-nine teams entered the annual competition, divided into categories of women’s residence halls, sororities, women’s independent teams, men’s residence halls, and fraternities. : Beeman battled it out with Rogers for first and second spots respectively in the women’s residence halls division. Chi Omega captured the sorority division as well as the women’s overall trophy, while Delta Zeta placed second. Delta Zeta also won the spirit competiton. And “Klipple Nipple” squeezed out the women’s independent division title. The men of Jeep Hall took first in the residence hall competition, and captured the men’s overall trophy. Phi Delta Theta outpulled SAE’s Steins to hold down the fraternity division. One of the more interesting mat ches of the day saw the pledges of Sigma Kappa sorority pulling against Sigma Kappa actives. The actives were drug mercilessly through the pit. The aftermath of Tug-O-War was pulled muscles, aching backs, raw hands, ruined clothes and a fond memory of a fun day spent playing in the mud.--by Debbie Slowiak Mud-caked and smiling, Bob Wagner, South Bend freshman, towels himself off after dunking in Delta Chi’s contest.

The objects of their search were the derbies the brothers wore, which were kept in place with a single hand. The Derby Scramble, one of the many customary activities for Derby Days, gave participating teams the chance to gain points for their sororities to be used toward winning the overall Derby Days trophy. Derby Days is an all-week tradition for most Sigma Chi chapters in America. The proceeds from the events are given to Wallace Village, a rehabilitation home for needy children with minimal brain damage, located in Broomfield, Colorado. The week began with a rally at the Sigma Chi house for participating teams and a penny vote contest for Derby Darling. This year’s Darling was Terri Elixman, a Carmel sophomore representing Pi Beta Phi Sorority. Other activities included collecting smile cards. On Tuesday, Sigma Chi brothers were given “smile” business cards, which were rewarded to those sorority team members that could coax brothers to smile. The Derby Bash was thrown on Thursday night to “fire up’ teams for the upcoming Derby Scramble and Derby Games. The Bash was highlighted with a chugging contest, won this year by Alpha Omicron Pi Sorority. Team coaches also showed spirit at the Bash by dressing up and singing songs or reciting poetry about their respective teams. The climax of Derby Days came on Saturday at the traditional Derby Games. The games, consisting of Blind Man’s Football, Water Balloon Toss, Egg Dropping Contest, and Water Buffalo Relay, gave teams their last chance to accumulate points towards the trophy. Chi Omega and Alpha Chi Omega were winners in the Derby Games. Pi Beta Phi, however, was the overall winner for the week’s events. Survival of the strongest was the rule for the Derby Scramble. At times it took five girls to bring down a fleet derby-bearer. Natasha Williams shows the fierceness as she fights against other girls for a hat. --photo by James P. Sweeney Derby Days Si eget For spectators as well as participants, the Derby Dance finished off the week by offering students the opportunity to win door prizes, as well as boogie down and just get |} crazy on Saturday night. Bill Scheidler, Indianapolis junior and chairman of Sigma Chis Derby Days committee, commented that this year’s events were very successful. Not only was Derby Days fun, but it also raised approximately $3,000 for Wallace Village. “My emphasis and first priority in 7] planning this year’s Derby Days was to get |] everyone involved and have fun--I mean the || actives, sororities, and pledges as well as the spectators,” said Scheidler. “It’s nice to know that you can get people involved and have a great time as well as benefit a good cause.” --by Jill Hess auto 42 Commemorating King With Unity Week Unity Week, sponsored by the Black Student Association, began on January 13, running through the 19th with seven days of memorable activities for the whole campus to participate in and enjoy. Gospel Night opened the list of activities for 1980’s Unity Week, with music from two local church choirs and Ball State’s Own Gospel Ensemble. The Golden Tones of Antioch Baptist Church and Unity Choir of Union Baptist Church performed in Cardinal Hall along with the B.S.U. Gospel Ensemble. The Reverend Gerald Dew, of Union Baptist, gave the sermon for the program. Cedric L. King, who is a_ successful Chicago businessman and official with | Prudential Insurance, was moderator for the Positive Thinking Series. King stressed during the session the importance of having the right frame of mind in order to reach one’s desired goals. A question and answer period followed the discussion. Students were given a chance to air their grievances with President Anderson at the Rap with President Anderson presentation in the Ball Room. The appearance of Dick Gregory was a mid-week highlight to the events of Unity Week. Dick Gregory, an entertainer, social satirist and civil rights activist, spoke on current politics adding his opinion and personal commentary throughout his speech. Movie Night offered entertainment but | also stayed within the mainstream of what Unity Week strives to achieve. Two movies were shown, “The Legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.” and “The Man, starring James Earl Jones. The former speaks for itself, the latter concerns the consequences of the first Black United States | President. Students gathered in the Special Programs House for snacking, conversation and game playing during Activities Night. The final event on the agenda of Unity Week, was the Semi-Formal Affair held in BSA Unity Week Cardinal Mae The best dressed male and female were selected at the dance, the title of Mr. GQ and Miss Ebony went respectively to Eric Taylor and Karen Barkstof. Each year the Black Student Association strives to make Unity Week different and more successful than the last.

Vance ag ZY The Beat Goes On O nce a year for one week every October, strange things start happening around Ball State's campus; auctions are held, people dressed in strange costumes stalk the streets, people stay up for 28 hours straight just to dance, all sorts of crazy things can happen during that week, otherwise known as Campus Chest Week. Started in 1945, Campus Chest raises funds for various charitable organizations. seventy-five percent of the money stays on campus with 25 percent going to organizations in the Muncie community. “The goal for Campus Chest is to raise money, stated Sherie Smith, chairman of the committee, “but we also try to make it a lot of fun for those involved.” “The nice thing about Campus Chest is that it gets everyone involved; residence halls, toward the goal.” Ws fic si faculty, Greeks; everyone works 44 | Campus Chest Week The goal for this year’s drive was $8,500, the goal was exceeded as everyone worked towards the final total of a little over $9,000. “It's great to raise that much money, with $9,000 we can help out a lot of organizations, stated business manager, Mike Jackson. The theme for this year’s drive was “The Beat Goes On” and the Chester costumes had to be designed to fit the theme. Students dressed as beets, drumsticks and cops and robbers roamed the streets collecting money. The award for most money collected went to the Chester from Alpha Sigma Alpha Sorority. In the halls, Hurst Mysch won the competition for combination halls, with the single hall title going to Wilson. Fraternities and sororities got into the act with the Greek Auction raising almost $2,000. Alpha Tau Omega won the fraternity award with Sigma, Sigma, Sigma winning for sororities. Tammy McCoige, head of Residence Hall Activities, said she liked the Greek Auction best. “I’m not Greek and it gave me a new insight on fraternities and sororities just by watching. ” On Friday night 10 couples danced for 28 hours in the annual dance marathon. Rae Ann Hendren and Scott Brumfield, dancing for Davidson Hall and Beta Theta Pi Fraternity, won first prize by collecting the most cash pledges. Freddy Fever, a disc- jockey from WNAP, provided part of the entertainment for the marathon. After the crazy week was over, $9,000 had been raised by the committee and students. “After it was over all I wanted to do was go home and catch up on all the sleep I missed, said Smith. “It was all worth it though, everyone worked hard and that made the week special.” --by Sherie Smith Each night after the various activities, the Campus Chest committee went through the agonizing routine of collecting, counting and re- counting all of the donations. Most of the money seemed to be pennies. --photo by Kim Ferrill For the Greek Auction, sorority sisters put up anything for bidding, from panties (and a date with their owners) to dozens of homebaked chocolate chip cookies. The auction raised almost $2,000. --photo by Kim Ferrill a2 ee ae sen See 48 | Folk Festival Backroads Boogie In a church where the location of the alter changes as often as the seasons, student parishioners have become accustomed to the unusual. Even so, a complete transformation with the alter and chairs replaced by trees and jack-o-lanterns takes a little getting used to. With the presentation of Backroad ‘79, St. Francis of Assisi Newman Center's 13th annual Fall Folk Festival, students found out that a church may serve as more than just a place to worship. “Folk festivals are a dying art. They've either gone bluegrass or country,’ said master of ceremonies, John Bultman. Backroads “79, presented on October 19 and 20 in Stout Hall, was a revival of that art. It was a foot-stamping, hand-clapping, musical extravaganza--a fall cavalcade of sounds, sights and colors. The soft, warm lighting centered on the stage and faded out to the corners of the orange-carpeted room, giving the hall a fire-lit appearance. The scent of crackling leaves pervaded the crisp autumn air, mixing with the flavors of colored popcorn balls and sweet hot cider. The predominantly jean-clad crowd spread out, from upright to reclining positions on the floor as the night wore on. Bultman built up a camaraderie between the performers and audience, and even told one enthusiastic fan jokingly, “I’m sorry, you're going to have to leave. We have rules--four Music ran the gamut at the 13th annual Newman Center Folk Festival in Stout hall October 18 and 19.

Hegyan Jr. screams per person.” The performers were both amateurs and professionals, but the differences between the two classes seemed indistinguishable. As soloists or in groups, they played the old folk tunes that have been moving audiences for years, as well as new, original material. Music ran the gamut from old-time bluegrass on the mandolin and fiddle to Irish ballads where, according to performer Bob Williams, every song had “one verse in it about drinking.” Entertainers included the Newman Folk Group that provides music at the Sunday masses and the Shady Grove String Band, a professional group led by Bultman with a record to its credit. The audience ranged from staid businessmen in three-piece suits to toddlers in rompers, staring in wide-eyed, open-mouthed delight at the entertainers on stage. But in spite of the diversity between the elements, everyone was there for the same reason. Pat Moeller, one of the performers, had introduced herself on Friday night by saying, “Hi, I’m Pat. I want to know who's here to have fun.” If the audience response was any indication, everyone was.--by Beth Ann Sharpe Decorated in the colors of fall, Stout Hall made for an adequate setting for the sounds of Backroad 79.

Hegyan Jr. ‘Sprung For Break pring break officially begins when the anxious student puts down his pencil, after marking the last answer on his last final exam. The motivation for surviving the long, cold winter was counting down the days until spring break “sprung.” But it was not so “springy” in the middle of February, especially in Muncie, Indiana. Consequently many were drawn southward to avoid the Indiana iceberg, and fry in the Florida sunshine. Others preferred to glide down the snow-covered slopes of picturesque Colorado. Those with a tighter budget, spent their vacation closer to home, skiing, skating, or just relaxing. No matter how extravagant, each vacation was a welcome change of pace. Spring break 1980 was hardest hit by the energy crisis. Gasoline was more than $1.25 per gallon, almost twice as much as a year ago, forcing many students to increase the number of Florida-bound passengers per car. Comfort, however, was not a priority. As soon as the beach was in sight, everyone forgot about the close quarters; car trouble, eight-hour driving shifts, and the stiff necks, backaches, and leg cramps miraculously disappeared. Ball State vacationers timed their trip to perfection. Indiana was smothered by a late winter blizzard, while the smart BSU students enjoyed the warmth of the golden Florida sunshine. When it was time to come home, Floridians were getting out their parkas to endure the winter-like 40 degree temperatures that hit the state, after the last few Ball State students had packed and headed north. They were almost as anxious to get home ! than Thanksgiving or Christmas Break. After a long, hard winter quarter, students start to get the fever. It’s highly contagious particularly after the first big snow storm, when everyone is very susceptible to the “Florida bug.” A sure cure is plenty of rest, relaxation, and sunshine. --by Mindy Pesch After saving up pennies all winter just for the gas-fare down to lorida, some students found that paying for hotel rooms was just beyond their budgets. Pam Funk, Denis Steckley and Linda Cumm- ings set up their alternative place to stay. --photo by Tyler Klassen Soaking up the sun and going to parties were not the only form of entertainment on the Florida beaches.

On the other side of the curtain, 58 University Singers joined hands and formed a circle. Their director, Larry Boye, began the chant and was echoed by students, “Vim, vigor, vitality, drive, devotion, determina- tion, sparkle, smile, shine!” Give me a “S,” he called, and was answered with a choral “S.” And then a P, EG, A.C: USL SA, R: “W hat’s that spell?” he asked. “Spectacular!” was their reply. And then the group bowed their heads in prayer. It was time for all the work, sacrifices and dedication to come together. And it did.

Vance Spectacular with “Starting Here, Starting Now,” and sang and danced through “Love is in the Air,” “Battle Hymn of the Republic,” “Chatanooga Choo Choo,” “You were meant for Me,” and many others. This year Spectacular featured “Dancing Waters,” a water show which made its American debut in the Radio City Music Hall. The show ran March 7 through 9 and played to enthusiastic crowds every night. ‘But the work began about two months earlier. According to Joni Burlison, Plain- field freshman and first year singer, decisions and practices took place long before “Spec Week,” Spec Week is the week of spring break, when most students head to Florida or It all came together for the Singers Friday March 7, the opening night of Spectacular ‘80.

University Singers practice from 8 a.m. to 10 or 12 a.m. to put the show together. During this week California choreographer Marilyn Magness worked with the singers for three days. The last two days were spent learning blocking and put- ting the show together. The first week of spring quarter was also a busy one for the singers. They practiced every night from 3 to 5 and from 6:30 to mid- night. According to Burlison, Spectacular’s date is always scheduled for the beginning of spring quarter. “The first week of the quarter is always the easiest,” she said. “We're always so tired that there’s not much time to study. Our director told us to go to classes, even if we had to sleep through them.” But the days and nights of work came together as the Singers performed for the Fri- day night crowd. “We were all pleased with the show,” said Burlison. “We became such a family through all the ups and downs and smiles and tears. You can’t just give 100 per- cent to be a University Singer. You have to give 110 percent, you have to give your all. If you can’t give that, you're not a University Singer. “There were times during the last couple of weeks that I really wondered if it was ever going to pull together. But on Friday night when we heard the drum roll, it was just like magic; it. all came together,’--by Gina Linville Although many dreamed about it and wished for it, there was not the time for everyone to have a solo to sing.

It was the evening of February 10 and I had to start a 20-page paper that was due the next day. The festivities were co-sponsored by the Student Center Governing Board and Strawberry Fields. You all know what SCGB is, but Strawberry Fields may have you baffl- ed. Let’s clear that up right away. Strawberry Fields is a special study group within Dr. John Barber’s GENED 230 Collo- quium in Behavioral Science. That study group is essentially a music troupe. Now, back to the event that I missed. During Strawberry Jam, Monica Antonelly went on stage as the “Virgin Microbe.” She was the only new wave act of the jam and sang such captualting hits as “The Anti-Christ is Coming to Town” and “Don’t Take Candy from an Alien.” --photo by Tom Nemcik Strawberry Jam was started in the early 70’s as a way to involve students on campus in free musical concerts. It is open to all students with musical talent by going through auditions, according to Chris Kap- pes, one of the co-chairmen of the Jam. Joe DeCamp, the other co-chairman played in the Decamp-Coffey Band, one of the entrees of the musical smorgasbord which consisted of blues, folk, gospel, jazz, and good old rock-and-roll. Special stage lighting was provided by Jeff Glover. Light cast down on 14 different groups and soloists, including: Jana Waltz, Robin Robinson, Joe Sherman, Kitty McCor- mick, Greg Crouch-Pat Moeller, Kathleen Gorman-John Swhear, Ken Swinson-Jeff McNabb, Paul Justad-Bob Scott, Ellen Dolak-Greg Pence Randy Spencer-Al Rollen, Joe DeCamp-Randy Coffey, the Tom Moore-Bill Seward Blues Band, and Nazgul. The show rolled from 5 p.m. until 11 p.m. with an estimated 500 people in total atten- dance. An average of three-hundred spec- tators were sipping coke or coffee and mun- ching hot dogs and chips. For the poor unfortunates that couldn't at- tend, like me, WBST taped the evening’s entertainment and featured the sounds dur- ing the nights of the next week. Next time the Strawberry Jam falls on the same night as a big paper, I will evaluate my priorities. . .and attend the Jam. by Jeffrey Armstrong As the afternoon went on, the few remaining for the rest of the jam found that they too had to find shelter from the rain. The groups didn’t give in though. They simply packed up and moved to the lit- tle theater. --photo by Tom Nemcik Strawberry Jam| 97 Doing it in the Dorm Ns an attempt to bring residents of 34 halls together, the Residence Hall Association (RHA) sponsored a week of activities during On Campus Week. In charge of this year’s activities, Mary Mackin said that On Campus Week serves to promote on campus living by providing activities for all the dorms. Eight committees began organization for the events before Thanksgiving to prepare for the week of January 20. Included in these events were a coffee house at LaFollette, the sixth annual splish-splash at the University Pool, and two nights of blue grass performances. A wide range of music filled LaFollette Commons for the second annual RHA coffee House. Barb Woehnker, Kendallville sophomore, spent a lot of time planning the entertainment, but found little cooperation from others involved; the show was late getting started, and it ended an hour and a half early. Two solo performers and one group highlighted the evening’ entertainment. Susan Weed delighted the audience with her singing and guitar playing of Carly Simon’s “Anticipation.” Mark Schafer demonstrated his aptitude on piano with songs such as “Evergreen and “Masquerade. And wrapping up the show was a new group called New Wyne. Audience applause measured the success of the group's music and songs with members Brad Hardesty, Valerie Franklin, Angie Huffer, and Keith Hindsley. Other performances included Kathy Kidwell, Pam Franklin, Debbie Wince, Tyler Wilcox and Joe Manor. The turn out for this year’s cotfee house was not as good as last year’s, but RHA president Ruth Peters said she was happy with the results. Organizational problems erupted when students who were lined up to play backed out, and the committee ha d to find new talent. Fortunately, as it turned out, the last minute talent performed and provided good entertainment for the students who attended. Turn out for this year’s splish-splash was, however, better than last year’s. Twelve women’s teams and three men’s teams 98 | On Campus Days competed for trophies in three divisions for both the guys and girls.

Bi np so tnagete eg Sans Splish-splash was only one of the several events held during O n Campus Days. Fifteen teams competed in relays and races and just had a good time splashing around in the pool. Wilson Hall won the trophy for the most spirited. --photo by Robert Benignus Winners in the men’s division were Clevenger in first, Swinford II in second, and Swinford I in third. In the women’s division, Tichenor II took first place, Wilson second, and Woody third. Committee chairman Vicki Welsh said she spent little time preparing for the event because of her experience last year, but there was a greater student turn out. A trophy was even given to the hall that gave their team the most support; Wilson was found to be the most spirited. To wind up the week’s events, students had two evenings to listen to live blue grass music (which is not to be confused with country music). One such group, The Shady Grove String Band, performed for students in the study lounge at Palmer Hall. The group consisted of one bass, two guitars, one banjo, and one autoharp. The banjo was the dominating instrument, and it supported the harmony of story-telling songs such as “Rockytop,” “Mighty Dark,” and “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot.” A small crowd turned out for the performance and filled the seats surrounding the band. Students expressed a liking for the music, and with a toe-tapping, foot stomping beat, they said good-bye to this years On Campus Week. --by Carol Burt Promenading down the stairs in front of Brady, this snow queen contestant keeps smiling and tries to forget about the goose-bumps and chattering teeth.

By com- peting in RHA’s Goofy Olympics, of course! In addition relay races involving eggs and dizzy bats, Goofy Olympics also offered a bed race for teams to win points towards gaining the “gold medal’. The bed race con- sisted of one person lying on the mattress while other team members transported the “bed” across to the finish line. Goofy Olympics is sponsored annually by Ball State’s Resident Hall Association. The event is held outdoors in the spring, giving halls the opportunity to compete with rivals in a manner reminiscent of grammer school’s Field Day. This year, a record 25 teams competed in the Goofy Olympics, with Elliot winning 60 Goofy | Olympics first place coed honors. In the men’s division, Clevenger won over Swinford hall, with Menk coming in third. For the women, Wilson hall edged out Alpha Chi Omega for first place honors. This was the first year that Greeks were allowed to enter the competi- tion. Botsford hall placed third for the women's division.

This year the School of Music, Sigma Alpha Iota, and Phi Mu Sinfonia presented the 32nd annual Spring Sing to the usual sell- out crowd in Emens Auditorium on April 23, 1980. Despite a bit of confusion involving a boycott shortly before pre-lims, 17 groups, both residence halls and Greeks, par- ticipated. Participants felt the boycott was not particularly harmful. Karl Jonason, Cedar Lake sophomore and singer with Botsford Swinford said, “some of the reasons for the boycott were valid, but they were raised too close to pre-lims and were too unorganized.” Groups continued to organize and practice with dedication and excitement. The hard work and long hours of these 17 groups resulted in a colorful, exciting pro- duction of tunes including everything from the ‘20’s, to Broadway, to pop. The thrills peaked for the performers from Botsford Swinford Halls when they cap- tured, for the second year consecutively, both the first place residence hall award and the overall trophy. Their version of songs from “Fiddler on the Roof” was a unique and creative blend of music and choreography, For dress rehearsal each group was allotted some time to practice on Emens’ stage and work out all the last bugs of their performance. --photo by Kim Ferrill directed by Julie Klaus, Merrillville junior, with dance arranged by Jasper senior Patty Riffel and Kokomo junior Deneice Fields. Klaus, director of the group for the second consecutive year, explained some of the ex- pectations they had. The experience becomes very emotional. Having won last year’s overall award, the new group had mixed feelings, thoughts like, “could it happen again?” “We have the potential--if we just work hard.” The performers of the group shared similar expectations. Jonason joined the group for his second year saying, “I ex- pected a lot of people since we won last year, and I also wanted us to do real well.” An exciting creation of “West Side Story” awarded first place in the Greek division to Chi-Omega Delta Tau Delta, directed by Cyndie Griese and Robert Wilson. Trane Hall captured the second place award in residence hall division with their medley of songs, “Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree,” “Sentimental Journey,” and “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy,” directed by Julie Allen and Rachel Todd. The second place trophy for the Greeks went to Alphi Chi Omega Sigma Chi for their enjoyable rendition of songs for “The Wiz.” Susie Stokes and John Weinland directed, Rhonda Newport choreographed the group. The third place awards went to Wilson Hall in residence hall division for a cowboy For the second year in a row, Botsford Swinford halls earned the over-all trophy, dispelling the myth that Spring Sing is a Greek dominated event. --photo by Kim Ferrill medley including “The Cowboys and Farmers Should be Friends,” “Rhinestone Cowboy,” and “Happy Trails,” and to Sigma Kappa Phi Sigma Epsilon for their medley of songs from the Broadway musical “Annie.” The awards are a thrill to receive, to sym- bolize the winning results of a lot of hard work. But Spring Sing is also fun. The ex- perience of being on stage, standing in the spotlight, is one the performer never forgets. Steve Hooker, Dillsboro junior and this year’s director of Baker Williams, describes how the event lends an opportunity for anyone to get involved and get a chance to be on stage-- not just theater or music majors. As a direc- tor, Hooker watched as the group grew. “We've become one individual performer,” he said. “We've realized a lot of talent in each other, and we re making friends. ” The excitement, the firing-up, the nervousness--it’s all part of it. Fields noticed, “it’s always different. It brings the university together as a whole. The closer the event gets, things start to gel.” The whole thing is a great idea to get people involved. Finally, after weeks and months of preparation, singing practice, dance rehear- sal, picking costumes and making it through . pre-lims, the big day comes. It’s fun, it’s scary, it's something new even to those who are in it every year. Emens is packed. The curtain goes up and there you are singing and dancing the best you've ever done it. And when you re done you wait. Everyone waits and prays. It’s an emotional moment when the judges’ decisions are presented. The screams of joy escape from each group. But everyone wins. The good times, the ex- perience, the friends--and perhaps the chance to turn right around and get started to do it all over again the next year! --by Jen- nifer Kunce Spring Sing 63 Crown Contenders A variety of entertainment keynoted this year’s Miss Black Ball State pageant held in Emens Auditorium on April 19. Masters of Cermony for the program were Frederick Johnson and Dorothy Hollins. A slide presentation featuring the 10 con- testants in leisure and recreational activity opened the program. The contestants were, Kim Whitt, Valerie Bryant, Sheryl Charleston, Morya Bransford, Michelle Wilder, Sabrina Jackson, Lynn Clark, Virginia Robinson, Leatha Johnson, and Yowanda Bowens. Competition for the 10 finalists included sportswear, talent, formal wear, and im- promptu questioning. In addition to the contestants competing in talent, the pageant also highlighted other BSU talent. The music for the program was conducted by Eric Taylor, a senior from Anderson, who also choreographed the open- ing dance number performed by “Manhattan 64 Miss Black| BSU Skyline.” Reginald Thornton, a graduate stu- dent from Gary, also choreographed and performed in the dance troupe “Fire.” After a final walk by Michell Offitt, 1979's Miss Black Ball State, the judges made their decisions. The crown for Miss Black Ball State 1980 went to Lynn Clark, a sophomore marketing major from Gary. Runners-up in- cluded Morya Bransford, Sabrina Jackson and Kim Whitt. The title of Miss congeniality went to Sheryl Charleston, an Indianapolis sophomore.

The wind whipped his face and dried the continuous stream of sweat rolling down his forehead. His legs moved quickly, but they ached in pain with each downward push. His body screamed stop, but his mind refused. He had to keep going--the glorious end was so near. : The end was glorious for the Beta-Chug bike team as Dwane Matias barreled across the finish line to aid his team in capturing first place in Bike-A-Thon 1980 held at the Delaware County Fairgrounds on Saturday, May 3. Other members of the Beta-Chug team were seniors Joe Tatman, captain, Dave Lies, Pat Fox and junior Kerry Rose. These riders represented Beta Theta Pi fraternity in this year’s Bike-A-Thon which was sponsored by Lamda Chi Alpha f raternity. The Betas posted a record-breaking time of 1:44.27 finishing ahead of second place Sigma Alpha Epsilon no.1 by six seconds. Third place went to Sigma Chi no. 1 with Sigma Phi Epsilon-Hive receiving fourth. Destiny. an indepéndent team with Jon Foher, Jeff Erickson, Mike Mulry, Mike Kit- son, and Pete DePrimio, took first place in that division and finished eighth overall. The Brakers and Wind received second: and third places respectively among the _ in- dependents. bat | 82% (” ie a . fas 66 | Bike-A-Thon Clevenger no.1 took top honors in the residence hall division, finishing 20th overall, and Palmer Express claimed second place. Beta Theta Pi, whose other three teams finished 6th, 12th, and 29th, earned the Magnabusco_ Trophy. This award is presented to the group with the four highest finishers in the race. During the first 10 laps of the race, seven different teams held the lead, but at the con- clusion of the 20th lap the top seven finishers were in command of the pack. Kip Miller, Sigma Phi Epsilon-Hive rider, amazed the cheering crowd by riding the first 31 laps of the race and still retaining his team’s place in the top six of the pack. Miller’s ride proved to be in vain, though, as the screaming, rowdy fans watched the Beta-Chug team take the lead in the last lap of the race. Sig-Ep-Hive and the SAEs followed in hot pursuit of the Betas, but the Betas managed a smooth exchange as they pitted in the middle of turn two while SAEs had some trouble ex- changing at the end of turn one. Risking his position in the pack of riders, a Sigma Phi Epsilon team- mate gets some relief from the hot sun and dusty track. --photo by William E.

With this advantage, Matias, the final Beta rider,sprinted down the back stretch passing up the Sig-Eps and headed for the fourth turn. Matias went all out for the finish as Indiana Senator Richard Lugar gave him the checkered flag and Matias gave the Betas a six second victory over the SAEs. While this spectacular finish was a winner for the Betas, the eighth place finisher, Destiny, took first in the independent category. When asked about his thoughts during the time he was riding, Jon Fohrer of Destiny replied, “The first time I was on the bike, the first few laps, I didn’t feel anything. My adrenalin was giong, but once I got off the bike I felt like shit. It was excruciating pain.” The pain paid off for Destiny in more ways than one. “We were happy that we had won (independent division) and that the training was over, but we decided that what was im- portant was that we all became closer friends through working and training together. We also decided that Destiny would return next year., said Fohrer. Confident feelings were dominant among another independent team also. Delta Chi Shadow Racer Ted Porter ex- pressed his feelings about the race and the possibilities for next year's Bike-A-Thon. “I was the second rider for the team. Scott Van Zant came in with the lead, and all I was thinking about was catching the pack. I was just trying to keep in a good position,” said Porter. “Next year were planning to train more extensively by riding in the fall, so when springtime comes around we'll be bet- ter prepared for harder road work.” The bikers were not the only ones with confidence and the ability to win at the fairgrounds that day. Teams of girls dressed in brightly colored uniforms adorned the track ready to pedal their fastest in the Trike-A-Thon, the open- ing event of Bike-A-Tnon in which the girls get a chance to ride their trikes for a victory. This year Sigma Alpha Epsilon No. 1, little sisses of SAE, conquered several obstacles to reign as the 1980 Trike-A-Thon champs. The 68 Bike-A-Thon More than just time for practice was spent before the big day. Get- ting the proper equipment and some impressive uniforins was also necessary. Here two team mates put on the finishing touches before the race. --photo by Tom Nemcik team members who came from behind to beat Chi Omega, the early leaders of the race, were Carol Crist, Carol Gottron, Sharon Bradlau and Colleen Hayden. They turned in a winning time of 38.45. Prior to the race, on April 28, Jenni Ferguson a sophomore from Marion, was crowned as the 1980 Bike-A-Thon queen. This year was the first time that BSU students used their I.D. cards to vote for the queen. The queen, her court, the crowd and the bike riders all enjoyed a warm, sunny day. As the race progressed, however, the heat of the day increased, and the spectators were prepared. They brought all sorts of beverages ‘to quench their thirsts. The conclusion of the race did not mark the end of Bike-A-Thon 1980, Saturday night was a time for the winners and losers to celebrate together. --by Sue Mileff Unfortunately everyone can't be winners.

As a matter of fact, they frequently overdue it. Some students consider every weekend a holiday itself. If they think hard enough, they can always rationalize the reason for throwing a party. On St. Patrick’s day, Ball State students remember their Irish ancesters with a keg of green beer. It really doesn’t matter how in- cidental the holiday. Even Ground Hog’s day becomes a important holiday at Ball State. Major holidays like Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years and Easter are brought to campus by students wishing to carry out family traditions. For out of state students it is especially important to create a warm, spirited atmosphere when they can't make it home to see their families. Being in- vited to spend a holiday with a friend’s or roommate’s family can be very comforting to those students hundreds of miles from home. While on campus, cooped up in a dorm room or sharing an apartment with four other people, the holiday seasons can seem much longer than usual. Christmas plans are started as soon as students return from Thanksgiving break. The dorms promote several activities that try to get everyone into jolly, celebrating moods. Some halls have a “hanging of the greens” night where everyone helps decorate a giant Christmas tree and then sings carols. Door decorating contests, semi-formal dances and gift ex- changes are also a major part of Christmas away from home. Students living off campus also try to get into the spirit, despite having to keep their thermostats turned down and having to shovel tons of snow. The Christmas tree usually goes up about the first of December, to get maximum enjoyment from the lighted Oliver, one of the plays presented in the Minitrista Center’s Dickens by Candlelight plays, was held just before Christmas. --photo by Tom Nemcik : Ghouls at an off-campus halloween party gather to growl together.

Holidays on campus are a chance for students to celebrate with both family and friends. And Ball State students wouldn't let a holiday pass by without giving it proper recognition. Whether it’s July 4th or Washington’s birthday, there will always be fireworks on this campus. --by Mindy Pesch Thumb in, thumb out, and thumb down.

After stopping its nagging calls, I began to turn over and return to my sleeping as was customary for me on Saturday mornings. Then, suddenly I realized that today wasn't like any other Saturday morning. Sure, the hangover was present as usual, but today was special--it was my last day as an undergraduate at Ball State. I could hear the beat of the rain against my window, and its soft, steady rhythm beckon- ed my mind to reflect back on my life at BSU. “Graduation day,” I thought. “It’s taken me four long years filled with finals, themes, and scheduling hassles to finally make it here, and it has to rain!!” On May 17 at 11:00 a.m., friends, families and roommates of over 2,000 seniors gathered at University Gymnasium to witness the 79th Commencement of Ball State University. Because of the rainy weather, the ceremonies were forced into the gymnasium instead of being held at the Arts Terrace as planned. The inclement weather, however, did not stop the thousands of spectators from attending the 2’ hour ceremony. Ball State’s University Symphony Band began Commencement with a concert pro- gram which included the traditional “Pomp and Circumstance.” Following the proces- sional of University officials, honorary degrees were bestowed upon Isaac K. Beckes, president of Vincennes University, and Van P. Smith, president and chairman of Ontario Corporation in Muncie. Both men were com- mended for their community service. Rita M. Gardiol, Interim Provost and Dean of Faculties, was in charge of announc- ing the names of the bachelor and associate degree candidates duri ng the ceremony. It was previously decided by University officials Due to the incessent rain, the graduation ceremony had to be mov- ed to University Gym. It didn’t stop friends and relitives, though, from gathering with the graduates to offer their congratulations. --photo by William E. Vance 72 | Graduation to cancel the individual reading of names, but after loud cries of protest from students, the University agreed to give individual recognition to degree candidates during Commencement. A graduation reception was held in University Gymnasium following Com- mencement exercises for students and their guests. Although the rain spoiled the plans of many graduates for an outdoor Commence- ment, May 17, 1980 ended an important step in each senior’s life. Although college careers had ended, the door to new challenges and hopes for a sunny, successful future had been opened. --by Jill Hess When it was all finally over, Janice Stutts, graduate student, was ready to do a song and dance for her friends.

Muncie’s a fine town. We got a lot of good businesses here and a first-rate high school ball team, and a statue of an injun and it’s the home of Ball Jars. Why, hell, even people in Injunaplus has Ball Jars. It’s them damned college kids is all I can figure. They come in here wavin’ their damn tuition money and think they own the whole damn place. Buncha spoilt rotten brats. By God, if they didn’t have Mama and Daddy to foot the bill they'd really be outa luck. I mean they come here and take up some damn fool thing like Art or Music and sit around and take dope and draw pitchers and play the piana. I’ll tell ya what they re really takin’ up. They takin’ up space. That’s how come my boy Raymond couldn't get into the damn school. He had him a sensible major too--Industial Arts. But they said ‘hell no-not you. You live here, we couldn't get enough money outa yor ol’ man. Uh-uh. No way. You'll live at home and we can't have that. We need more money. Then they had the gall to make up some damned excuse about SAT or somethin’. I asked Raymond what the hell was SAT and he said he didn’t know nothin’ about SAT, he reckoned it was something like ABC’s. What I think is that it was really WASP. They had too many white kids and they had to fill their minority quota. Some colored kid is makin’ a lamp in Raymond’s seat just cause their scared the NAACP is gonna raise some hell. Well, I tell ya one damn thing, Raymond don’t need that. If it’s gonna turn him out like some a them damned kids I see walkin’ around, well I say no thank you sir. Strung out on dope and makin’ wise-ass remarks. Not my boy. I reckon they ain’t three kids in that whole damn place that’s there to learn somethin’. Hell, they probly couldn’t even if they wanted to, all them damn wise-ass perfessers is on drugs too. Bunch a draft- dodging hippies all growed up, passin’ it along to the next set. God Almighty when will it all end? An’ all them kids do is gripe. They gripe cause they ain’t nothin’ to do, and they gripe about the weather. If it snows it’s too cold; if the sun shires it’s too damn hot and muggy and if it rains, oh God forbid, that’s the worst of all. Muncie monsoons they call it. Well I call it rain and it’s there for a reason. If they didn’t have it I’d like to know what the hell they'd drink. No- I know what they'd drink. Hell, they drink it by the case now. Beer cans all over hell. And then they got the gall to say Muncie’s dirty. Well how in the Sam Hill do they think it got that way? They'll miss it some day, that’s all I gotta say. When they re livin in New York or Chicago or some God forsaken den of iniquity they'll be singin’ “Muncie on my Mind.” It ain't every city in the world has the Muncie dragstrip or the Muncie Mall. They'll miss it someday. And then, by God, then they'll be sorry.” --by Gina Linville Two young hunters pick up a dead racoon along the side of the highway.

Usually, I hate water. I'd rather drive five miles to Chic’s liquor store than walk five feet to the sink for a glass of chlorine-flouride water. But on April 10, the day they declared the water unfit, I suddenly became very thirs- ty....1 craved a tall cool sparkling glass of water. I dreamed of clear blue pools. And I even started writing my pleas of desperation to the the Muncie Water Works... Dear Sirs: Please work harder on finding a solution to this mysterious problem of bacteria in the water. I’m dehydrating. But they obviously didn’t read my letter. We were told to continue boiling our water; it still wasn’t safe to drink. Chloraforms, they called the problem. “Too much shit in the water” was how we defined the crisis that seemed to have Water Works and Public Health officials stumped. They just couldn't find the source or the solution. In the meantime, we suffered. After awhile boiling water just to brush your teeth or wash dishes became a major pain. There were even moments of desperate frustration when I was almost willing to take the chance--and just take a drink. Fortunately there was always someone around to restrain me from gulping the germ-infected water. But I was losing my patience. Dear Sirs: Lost your glasses? Look harder for the answer. My begonia died today...due to lack of good, clean H2O. Please hurry--before my fern goes too. After that heart-breaking plea, they at least did something. Mass amounts of chlorine were dumped into the system. Sud- denly, all of Muncie smelled like as swimm- ing pool. Taking a shower was like going for a swim, and even after it was boiled, the water still had an icky blue-gray cast to it. It certainly didn’t do much for campus ac- tivities, either. Every chance they got students headed home--just for the taste of the water The Muncie water treatment plant attempted to rid city water of a bacteria pest by flushing out the system through fire hydrants. Although the flushing did not prove effective, the water provided fun for city children. --photo by Terry Clark Several tests were run periodically on the Muncie mysterious bacteria. The water was made tolerable after 16 days by adding chlorine to the water. --photo by Terry Clark some clean water and to fill up as many jugs and containers as possible. Even the restaurants and dorm dining ser- vices were affected. McDonald’s didn't serve beverages for a few days, and Long John Silver’s resorted to buying bottles of Coke from Marsh. The dining services brought in tanks of water from Fort Wayne and Ander- son. But still the crisis continued. Dear Sirs: Do you have any idea what this chlorine is doing to my hair? Do you know what it’s like to try to eat dorm food without anything to wash it down with? Please. Please do something. After two weeks of slow dehydration, I was about to quit my classes and return home--where there was at least clean water. I was sick of waiting for pots to boil, broke from buying cans of Coke and tired of having my mother call and say, “Dear, youre not drinking that yucky water, are you?” Dear sirs: This is it. If you ever expect me to pay my water bill again, get rid of the shit in the water. Pronto. I never knew if it was my letter that scared them and got them into gear--or if all the germs just decided to curl up and die anyway. But on April 26, the glorious an- nouncement was made. The water had been saved. We were rescued. Life was restored to Muncie. Although it still tasted like chlorine, we could at least drink it again without wor- rying about being poisoned or waking up deformed. Immediately, I drank about three gallons....and then returned to hating water. Things were back to normal, at last. --by Pam Kiser Water, water everywhere and not a drop to drink.

Open your little eyes now. Don’t roll over and go back to sleep. Come on now, one foot out of bed, now the other one. Okay now have a nice day,” says Bird Talking Alarm Clock. What would you do if this was the first thing you heard every morning, especially Monday morning after a strenuous weekend. Wouldn’t you just want to throw good ole Big Bird across the room! On Monday morning when your're still feeling kind of groggy staggering about the dimly lit room with squinted eyes trying to get ready for a eight o'clock class, you wonder, “Is it really worth it,” but then a snickering grin shines across answering. Weekends, what are they and what makes them so special? Webster says, “a weekend is the period between the close of one working or business or school week and the beginning of the next.” Weekends break the class monotony. It gives students a chance to relax and enjoy the college environment. Just how students decide to spend this time depends on them. “I like the weekend to be with friends. During the week I’m usually too busy studying to spend much time with them. It doesn’t really matter what we do, we may party on frat row, go to a movie, shopping, or just sit around the dorm talking,” said a senior from Indianapolis. “I like to get loaded on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I start it off right and end it the same.” An example of a good weekend to junior Pam Kissinger, LaPorte, is “It starts with an exciting Thursday night at Mr. B’s; a half- day of classes Friday with an afternoon at the Chug for loosening up; a quick meal at McDonalds and then a party with friends off campus. Saturday begins about noon with lunch, then shopping and seeing a movie, and at night another off campus party with friends; Sunday again begins late, but with a good meal; then it’s off to the library for 80 | Spending Weekends some intensive studying. The evening is spent quietly watching television. ” Known as the suitcase college, a lot of Ball Staters go home every weekend. Most students who did, have close family ties, a girl or boyfriend, or a job. They also seemed to come up with the response, “Why should I stay. What’s there to do in Muncie, Middletown USA.” There have been a lot of funnny things happen to the Cardinals, most of whom wished to remain anonymous, such experiences or mishaps include; a jumping telephone pole, a pimped room, and an Botsford Hall resident, Cindy Strafford, sits near LaFollette as she waits for a ride home to Plainfield. --photo by Kim Ferrill Fraternities and sororities filled the weekends of many students during the year.

At first we thought it was just his alarm clock, so he grabbed for the plug. By this time we realized that it was a drill. My boyfriend grabbed for a pair of jeans, not realizing they were mine. Finally we got ready and went outside. As we were starting back up, my boyfriend realized that his key was in the room. We called it a lost cause, so I went back to my own room.” “One time me and my friends were walking out to my car to make a liquor run. I was walking along and all the sudden a pole jumped out right in front of me. Next thing I knew I was lying on the sidewalk.” “One evening me and two guys were just sitting around in the room bored, so we got this brilliant idea of pimping a friend’s room. We checked everything out, no signs, so we got a bale of hay and flung it all around the room. We opened the door just in time to see the girl coming back. The girl saw us, so we ran out and went to another guy’s room and locked it where we waited until she cooled off,” said Robert Knoblock, junior.

Aurora junior Greg Kleine summed the attitude of most students stating, “Junk mail is the ultimate disappointment. You look in your box and think ‘Oh good, I got mail’ then you open it up and you say ‘What the ---- is this?’ ” For a good number of students it always seemed as though letters from friends and family, and_ especially those letters containing desperately needed money, took longer than necessary to arrive. For them, wading through junk mail was even more of a frustration. Other students were frustrated because they felt their friends and family had forgotten them since they had been away from home. Freshmen especially seemed to write home most often in hopes of a response that might perhaps heal some of their homesickness. Many students, however, said they were always too busy to write to everyone they wanted to, but enjoyed getting mail from them in any case. Some students liked to get mail from any source, even junk mail or non-applicable university related mail. Randy Karmolinski, South Bend sophomore, decided to buy a magazine subscription in order to break his 4 mail-less streak. Other students held friendly contests to see who would wait the longest between receiving mail. Some decided to drop each other notes so as to brighten each other’s empty mail box days. Desk staffs sometimes found processing mail to be troublesome. They agreed that the problems were excessive junk mail and receiving mail for people that no longer lived in the hall. According to Lori Quinn, Kokomo junior and desk staff, too many students do not promptly forward their mail after leaving the hall and therefore don’t receive it until weeks later. Junk mail was sometimes invited by students intentionally yet most times students were unkowingly put onto those lists. One : «“ é ° . girl stated, “I will be glad to get mail from anybody who will send it.” Sorting and processing mail seemed to be just another one of the many daily chores.

The future doctors, lawyers, thiefs and chiefs, however, played marbles in the opposite corner of the playground and did their best to ignore the disgustingly cute females. Little did they realize that someday they might actually be interested in those feminine creatures. The day might even come when they would share a Dominoes pizza with one (foresaking the onions), or actually give up studying biology one night to take a special sweetie for a moonlight walk around the ever-beautiful Duck Pond. After all, there are some things (like baking chocolate chip cookies or listening to Frank Sinatra albums) that you just can’t do with the fellas. By the time the little marble-playing rascals would survive their first crush, pass the first sex education class and would actually miss seeing all of a movie to sit in the back row of the theater with a girl, they would well realize the importance of companionship with members of the opposite Sex. Then by the time a person enters college, mastery of the fine art of dating is almost expected. Meeting and spending time with members of the opposite sex becomes a part of the campus lifestyle. It’s no longer a subject that females ponder lightly and males ignore. According to Dr. Everett Ferrill, history professor, at least 50 percent of all college students in the U.S. meet their future spouses while attending college. It seems, therefore, that a college campus must be the perfect environment for dating, one that every starry-eyed romantic would dream about. “At least it’s (dating) a heck of a lot more convenient here,” said sophomore Mary Dizer from Utica, New York. “Especially living in a dorm. With all the lounge activities you can see someone without actually going on a date,” she added. Some of the imaginative hall events, that 86 | Dating can have residents doing anything from auctioning off their pajamas to entering ping-pong tournaments, certainly can add some excitement to dating. On the other hand, the closeness and possible “family atmosphere” of living with 200 to 400 other students can also cause problems. “Dating is inherently awkward, but when you add the complications of dorm life, it can almost be like you and your brothers are dating the same girls,” said Noblesville freshman John Wilmoth. “And that has the potential of being more than just awkward.” Attending college can also add other small (but often fatal) complications to a student’s social life...like having to find time to actually study, having to get up for an 8 a.m. class or even just having to arrange priorities into some logical order. Although architecture major Teresa Drerup, Auburn sophomore, says that she would like to have more of a social life, her classes and architecture projects really make it difficult. “Sometimes it almost makes me mad when I see all the other people going out all the time---and I have to go to the studio to work. I feel like 'm missing out on what college life is really like,” she said. In contrast, some students consider dating to be far less important. “I came to get my degree. I know I can’t or won't settle down with one person until I get my master’s,” said Kokomo sophomore Mike Kendrick. Despite the fact that this attitude of “studying comes first” seems to be reaching a new peak, there are still questions that arise and choices that have to be made. Connie Kiesler, New Albany sophomore, is a pre- medical major and has a boyfriend who attends another university. “We're pretty serious about each other...but I just can't afford to let it (the relationship) dominate right now. College is still first,” she said. Of course there are still students who feel a college education should include more than just memorizing comma rules, disecting frogs and conjugating Spanish verbs. “I’m not in college just to study,” said South Bend junior Jenny Kunce. “I feel life itself is more important than just the academics. And you sure learn more about life out of a classroom than in one, she added. Therefore, although dating may at times have to wait until the algebra assignments are done and the term papers are typed, it still is a vital part of college life. Three simple facts show proof: there are approximately 30 dances or discos on campus per quarter; an average of 40 people visit the Birth Control Information Center during a month, and according to the Student Affairs Office, Ball State has nearly 200 married students. The complex art of flirting, wooing and winning that long-dreamed about mate is definitely not yet dead. --Pam Kiser When students without cars on campus go out on dates, they usually have to use some ingenuity and imagination to find entertainment within walking distance.

He latched the phone box, closed the window and drew the curtains. He put on his stereo headphones, clicked on the radio and crawled into his sliding the door shut. closet, Crowded between t ennis shoes and dirty underwear, he smiled. Good ol’ country music filled his ears. Until very recently, people who listened to country music or wore cowboy boots were usually laughed at and called hicks. But things are changing. Country is in. Now sounds of Waylon and Willie filter out of dorm rooms almost as loudly as Styx or Journey. Cowboy hats, which would at one time have drawn stares and giggles, are now very popular, especially among college students. Western boots, belts and shirts are being worn by both males and females. Connie Parker, a sales manager at Ayres in the Muncie Mall, said that her store is stocked with western wear, especially belts and boots. Also popular, she said, are lariat necklaces. “From the fashion magazines like Glamour and Mademoiselle, I'd say that’s what the fashion for this year is, it’s a trendy thing.” One student who loves the trend is Merrillville freshman Linda Jaroscak. “All the fashion magazines are filled with western clothes,” she said. “I think it looks cool. Those guys wear all those cowboy hats. They look kinda sexy in a cowboy hat, kinda rugged and macho.” Jaroscak also likes country music. “I listen to it most of the time,” she said. “There’s a good station out here. Most of the people at home don’t like it at all. I get teased about it a lot. They’re mostly into hard rock up there.” Jaroscak’s favorite group, The Charlie Daniels Band, has become more popular during the past year due mostly to their hit, “The Devil Went Down to Georgia,” a song about a violin duel between Satan and a fiddler named Johnny. The song was played on both country and rock stations. The Marshall Tucker Band is also a favorite country-rock group. They play “cowboy” songs and packed the stands at their Indiana State Fair concert this summer. Teresa Bennett, a Marion junior, works at The Strand record store in the village, and thinks there has been a definite growth in the popularity of country music. “I think the favorites are Kenny Rogers, Crystal Gale, Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson. People who are into country are pretty gung-ho about it.” One student who is very gung-ho about y a - Ff aS country music is Peggy Luken, Greensburg sophomore. She has been a fan of country music for about three years. She thinks it is becoming more popular than ever among college students, but she still g ets teased about it occasionally. “Disco is getting old,” she said. “Country music is a lot more peaceful. I think people are ready for that. Some country music now has a rock beat to it, and that gets more people attracted to it too.” Joan Jump, a sophomore from Walton, is 89 Cowboy Craze ‘Setanta suse 90 Cowboy Craze Western also a die-hard country fan. She was happy to see Willie Nelson named as Country Music Association’s Entertainer of the Year. “I freaked out when he won. It’s neat to see a rebel take an award from such a bunch of straight-laced people. The whole atmosphere of the awards usually seems kinda fake.” Jump says she likes country music because the performers’ songs seem honest. “They're so realistic and down-to-earth,” she said, “you know the songs they write they've probably really experienced.” Besides Nelson, Jump’s favorite country singer is Waylon Jennings. In her dorm room is a life- size stand-up of the entertainer. “He’s a great conversation piece,” she said. “Sometimes we put him up in the window and laugh at the reactions from the people in the windows across from us.” Jump sees the new popularity of country music as something that will last. “The whole thing seems so basic and solid that I don’t see how it will fade out. Things like disco and punk rock are just fads, I think. Country music has been around for a long time. I think it’s gonna last.”--by Gina Linville Photos by Tom Nemcik Models appearing on this page are: Kathy McLain, Cathy Ondecker, Geoffrey Tyson, JoNell Price, Tyler Klassen, Sally Vogel, Rusty Hamner, and Linda Patterson.

Gallery 103 Country Picking and Grinning with: M -M-Mell Anyone who gets into country music knows about the great stuttering man from Tampa, Florida, Mel Tillis. And on September 21, country and western music fans packed Emens Auditorium to hear this legendary man do what he does best. Mel, backed by the 10-man group, The Statesiders, sang many of his hits, including, “Good Woman Blues” and “Ruby.” Between his songs he joked with The Statesiders and his captivated audience of 4,800, lending a delightful variety to his stage show. Mel started singing professionally in 1956, at the time Elvis Presley was approaching his peak. But, despite Elvis’ fame and Mel’s own stuttering problem, he rose to become a national hit. He has appeared in three movies (“Cotton Pickin’ Chicken Pluckers,” “W.W. 104] Tillis and The Dixie Dance Kings” and “The Villain”), been interviewed on countless talk shows and has won 21 awards for his songs. Appearing as Mel’s opening act was Rex Allen Jr., a charismatic young singer with a string of platter hits to his name. Rex commented to the audience that he was grateful to Indiana for being one of the first states to give him a chance at a musical career when he was first starting out. The audience responded with enthusiastic applause. All in all, the show was a huge success--or as Mel might say, “J-Just g-g-great!”--by Judi Banks Backed by his band, the Statesiders, Mel Tillis sang many of his hits. Rex Allen Jr. appeared as the opening act. A captivated audience of 4,800 delighted in the variety of the stage show.--photo by Terry Clark Tillis, Allen, ie the harsh glare of the Emens’ spotlight, the barrel seemed ancient. Faded and weather-beaten, it sat in the center of the stage, a prop for the acts to follow. The barrel--rustic, simple and full of down-home charm--was there to set the mood... but networks of cords, speakers, wires and a maze of electrical equipment surrounded it and nearly swallowed it. The barrel seemed out of place. With Tim Wright on steel pedal guitar and on banjo, with Tom on acoustic guitar and with Carl Finkle on electric bass, it sounded, at times, as though there were more than just three men on stage. In addition to their versatile playing, the vocal harmonizing of the men was blended perfectly with each note exact and clear. “We love to sing harmony. That’s what we especially love to do”, announced Tom to the small crowd before the group began some acapella selections. Then their instruments were set aside and only their voices filled the huge stage. When the Earl Scruggs Revue took the stage, however, the mood, the tempo and the music style immediately changed. Consisting of master banjo picker Earl Scruggs and his three sons, Garry, Randy, Steve, plus drummer, Taylor Rhodes, the group took the country western style, added it’s own rock beat, included a progressive and driving rhythm, and gave the crowd a sound that certainly was not typical bluegrass. However, settling through the carpeted aisles of the auditorium, were the easy, harmonic sounds of fiddles, guitars and banjos. The Wright Brothers and the Earl Scruggs Revue had brought their own distinct music to the Emens'’ stage. The native Indiana group, performing in Emens for the fifth time--a record for a professional group--played witt unbelieveable precision, unity and clarity. Combining touches of bluegrass, gospel and barbershop so uniquely that even Webster might have a hard time defining their style, the Wright Brothers easily stole the show. As one listener said, “It was certainly more than just pickin-n-grinnin.” Similiarly, the first acts of Emens’ season and Scruggs also seemed slightly out of place. It was the first weekend on campus. All-campus discos, beer brawls, pot parties and frat functions had invaded. After an entire week of classes, it was at last a chance for most students to let go and get rowdy. Earl Scruggs, king of banjos, is the The Wright Brothers appeared as the opening act of Earl Scruggs and sons--most of the performance was ‘and sons’. Scruggs did per- form the famed “Foggy Mountain Breakdown” and “The Ballad of Jed Clampett.”--photo by Tom Nemcik composer of grammy award-winning “Foggy Mountain Breakdown,” which became better known as the theme song of the movie “Bonnie and Clyde.” He also composed the theme song of “The Beverly Hillbillies,” call- ed “The Ballad of Jed Clampett.” The Revue, however, was obviously centered around the various talents of Scruggs’ sons. The veteran musician stood in the center of the group, lending his banjo and his voice whenever needed, although at times, he seemed more like a spectator than a performer. Throughout the performance, his tired, bored expression changed only once-- when he introduced the “Ballad of Jed Clampett.” While the campus discos and frat parties were still just getting started, the Emens performance was already ending. The spotlight was snapped off, the cords and the wires were wound up, and that old, rusty barrel was packed away, for another stage, another act. --by Pam Kiser Scruggs | 105 106 Cruise A Pablo Cruise Control] : Wien the lights went out the crowd roared. Thirty-five hundred pairs of eyes were focused on the center of Emens Auditorium stage. The first song uttered this center of attraction was “Worlds Away,” which is from Pablo Cruise’s second album. Upon conclusion of this song the crowd was ready to take an eight o'clock cruise with Pablo. Imagine this! Chair jumpers, singing, rocking, hugging, and even dancing in the aisles! These were the reactions of the fans who came to hear Pablo’s “oldies but goodies” and new popular hits. The dazzling piano player’s smile won the hearts of several in the crowd. While performing many of the hits, his sparkling personality was exhibited throughout the show. “He was excellent; he was outgoing and definitely played up to the women in the audience,” said Jan Bell, a Lafayette junior. Kyle Kreiger, a New York senior, said, “The piano player has an excellent range of voice.” The piano player was not the only one winning hearts; the drummer took a few too.

He said, “The drummer was superb.

Porn sizzling jazz numbers to traditional Christmas carols, Maynard Ferguson surprised a nearly full Emens Auditorium crowd November 28. Featuring selections from his current album, “Hot,” Ferguson and his band showed the multifaceted direction in which their music is moving. In an interview after the concert, Ferguson said, “If you can’t love the hours that you practice, then you ought to do something else.” It was obvious from the performance that there is nothing else the 51-year-old trumpet player and his band would rather be doing. The back-up band for Ferguson, with instruments ranging from flute to electric guitar as well as the traditional brass, jumped right into the concert with the first song, “Give It One.” The two and one-half hour concert included well known Ferguson hits “Theme |} | from Rocky II” and the theme from “Star Wars: The Motion Picture.” In a departure from the traditional jazz that fans expected, Ferguson’s program included an Indian chant adaptation complete with Sanskrit lyrics and vina music. “Gabriel,” another cut off the “Hot” album, was called a “jazz, spiritual, gospel, rock march” by Ferguson. The song, which he co-wrote with trombonist Nick Lane, featured an ear-splitting trumpet solo by Ferguson and a macabre keyboard solo by Jeff Pittson. There was more audience response to “Everybody Loves the Blues” than found in a country jamboree. “The Blues” and “Stella by Starlight” were other audience favorites. Ferguson said music is going in a multidirection today and offers more opportunities to young people than ever before. “The young people today cannot be hyped,” he said. “Music is widening today as far as what they can appreciate.” “The point to music is pleasure. Turn yourself on first,” Ferguson said. --by Beth Sharpe 108 Maynard | Ferguson All that jazz floated from the rafters during Maynard Ferguson’s concert stop in November.

Dave Letterman is certainly trying. Letterman, along with the singing group The Fifth Dimension, appeared in Emens on October 13 for the annual Homecoming Show. Letterman, graduated from Ball State in 1970, appeared on the “Tonight Show” the week before his Ball State performance and did not fail to mention his alma mater. And during his performance at Emens, the jokes about Ball State and Muncie were even more frequent. He took stabs at the football team’s “pansy schedule,” (“next year they'll play Burris”) dorm food, and the “Muncie International Airport and Goat Ranch.” When a photographer during Letterman’s first performance took a picture near the edge of the stage, he went over to talk to her. He asked her name and where she was from. After relaying the information to the audience, he said, “Alright, whadaya say we all tie her up and beat the crap out of her?” Letterman spoke of his disgust with service stations, restaurants, television commercials and health warnings on the labels of different products. Roxann Whitcomb, Munster senior said, “I laughed from the moment he walked on stage. I especially liked his jokes about Ball State. I wish he would have done more.” After Letterman’s performance came The Fifth Dimension. The back up band wore red and white Ball U tee shirts with their black bow ties. The singers themselves, also in red University Singers, the Banevolks, and a revised version of an old favorite fable, “Cinda-Co-ed” were highlights of the Homecoming Variety Show, entitled “It’s a Small World,” held October 12 in Emens. --photo by Michael G. Hegyan Jr. and black, began their performance with a medley of disco songs, complete with energetic dances. They sang portions of their hits at requests from the audience. The songs included “Up, Up, and Away,” the song that won four Grammy Awards and started the group's success, “Aquarius--Let the Sun Shine In,” “One Less Bell to Answer,” “Wedding Bell Blues,” and “Stoned Soul Picnic.” The group, which has recently released a new album “High on Sunshine,” consists of original members Florence LaRue Gordon and LaMonte McLemore with new members Mic Bell, Pat Bass and Lou Courtney. They did a segment of spiritual songs which they dedicated to “everybody who ain’t goin’ to church tomorrow,” and new songs “High on Sunshine” and “Mr. Music Man.” At the end of their performance, in “a. tribute to the winners,” they displayed Ball U tee shirts and danced with members of the audience. Machelle Lowe, a freshman from Ladoga, said she enjoyed The Fifth Dimension’s performance. “They were really good,” she said, “especially after they got warmed up.” What Lowe appreciated the most was the way the group’s sound had changed in recent years. Their first hit, “Up, Up, and Away,” came in 1965, and the style of their music, she said, has changed through the years. Instead of relying on their tried and true style, they had the versatility to change with the times. --by Gina Linville Ball State's own gift to the ranks of “Tonight Show” guest hosts, David Letterman, was the attraction for homecoming.

A character dressed in contemporary clothing tells another in Victorian dress that the characters in the play are only performers, waiting to be told what to do. Suddenly, he calls them out on stage. Some are partially dressed, one is carrying a can of Tab, and all are very vocal about being hauled out on stage when they have no lines or movements or reason to be in a scene. Is it a mistake? A flop? No. Something different? Yes. On October 3 through 6, Ball State Theatre presented “The French Lieutenant’s Woman,” a Chamber Theatre production. Chamber Theatre was developed by Robert S. Breen, a Northwestern University professor in the early 1950's. It is the staging of a short story or novel, told in the past tense, where the narrator becomes one of the characters. There is often discussion between the narrator and the other characters and sometimes, as in “The French Lieutenant’s Woman,’ there is more than one narrator. “Part of the language in the book seemed like today’s,” said Judy Yordon, director of the show, “but the time of the play is not contemporary, so I decided to split the narration between two characters, one modern and one Victorian.” Yordon adapted the play’s script from John Fowles’ novel. Writing the original adaptation took over a year and some changes in the script were even made after the first performance of the play. Six scenes were cut and speeches for the narrators were added. “I called the cast and crew together at 4 p.m. before the Thursday performance and changed the script .” The cast, she said, was very cooperative. They realized that the audience would lose interest if the play was too long. She added that the changes helped to teach the cast to be flexible. Obviously there is more to Chamber Theater than learning lines, movements and characters. A whole book must be adapted 114 French |Lieutenant’s Woman and characters created and developed. “But that,” said Yordon, “is what I’m trained to do, and it’s what I love to do.”--by Gina Linville Chamber Theatre involves adapting a novel or short story to the stage.

On October 20, at 8 p.m., Nero presented a concert at Emens Auditorium. Backed by the Muncie: Symphony Orchestra, the concert was a great success. The concert consisted of six segments. Segment I was a Chicago Medley, with “Make Me Smile” and “Color My World.” Segment II was the tune “I Got Rythm,” a catchy song arranged by Nero. Segment III was “Isn't She Lovely,” the Stevie Wonder hit, arranged for orchestra by Nero. Segment IV was “Selections from The Wiz,” including “Ease on Down the Road” and others. In segments I through IV, Nero intermittently played the piano and conducted the orchestra. But in Segment V, 116 | Peter Nero “Rhaposody in Blue” by George Gershwin, the orchestra was conducted by Robert Hargreaves while Nero concentrated on the beautiful piano accompaniment.

The entire cast did a brilliant job of providing the audience with an enjoyable evening. This sophisticated comedy set in the late 1930’s in Philadelphia, is centered around the activities of the wealthy Lord family prior to the marriage of Tracy, the eldest Lord daughter. Tracy, brilliantly portrayed by Lisa Pettett, is a conceited socialite who has been characterized as a ‘virgin goddess’ throughout her life. Married unhappily once before, she is on the verge of wedding George Kittredge, a wealthy coalman, important in the Philadelphia social scene. Raymond Chambers as Kittredge is a splendid success at depicting the snobbish, materialistic coalman. Dinah Lord, the younger Lord daughter is a source of many headaches for Tracy. Catherine Brandt is terrific as the tomboy Dinah, and very realistic as she performs several juvenile pranks. As one of her jokes she calls Tracy’s ex-husband Dexter, and slyly invites him to lunch. The appearance of Alexander, the Lord son played by Scott Sandoe, throws another curve in the Lord’s calm preparations for the wedding. On his appearance, he announces he has brought two guests with him for the occasion. These guests are two reporters who are doing a story on Philadelphia and its society. Alexander announces to his shocked family that they will be the reporters subjects. The remaining members of the Lord family, Margaret, the mother characterized by Stacy Embry, Uncle Willie, portrayed by Mark Fishback, and Darrell Francis as the father, chart their plan of action before the reporters arrival. Embry, Fishback, and Francis do a realistic job as their characters, and the three of them provide the audience with numerous laughs in the course of the play. MacCaulay Connor, portrayed by Steven Mirer and his photographer Elizabeth 118 | Philadelphia Story Imbrie, played by Nancy Saville arrive at the house and are instantly surprised at the unique Lord family. Mirer is splendid as the experienced city writer and Saville is very believable as the chic city photographer. While the family is trying to impress the reporters with their exquisite manners and social etiquette, they are interrupted by the appearance of C.K. Dexter Haven, Tracy’s first husband. Humorously portrayed by Scott Johnson, the playboy Dexter succeeds in getting the Lord family back to their normal behavior. The play smoothly progresses to the party on the eve of the wedding. With the baggy, double-breasted suits, the pompadour hairstyles, and the crystal champagne glasses, the 30’s fads and the affluence of the Lord family are evident. In the play, the audience becomes aware of several conflicts concerning the family. MacCauley is really a sensitive poet who slowly falls in love with Tracy. Likewise, Tracy, intrigued by MacCauley’s sensitivity and his ability to see through her outward cool appearance, seems to be in love with him. Miss Imbrie, although she is too proud to admit it, is also in love with MacCauley. In one of the scenes of intense emotion, Lisa Pettet, playing Tracy Lord, and Scott Sandoe, playing Sandy Lord, go over their lines for one last time during dress rehearsal. --photo by Kathy Torok Dexter understands all of these problems and knows that he can’t let the marriage take place. His disapproval of Kittredge is seen in his sarcastic remarks directed towards him. Kittredge, humorously rebukes the remarks in his cool, arrogant style. Slowly, we realize Dexter still loves Tracy also. He constantly lectures and teases her about their previous marriage and the fun times they had. The play i is highlighted at the party. Tracy gets drunk and MacCauley admits he loves her. ‘The suspense builds during a humorous scene where MacCaulay is carrying a giggly Tracy up to bed, and is confronted by a shocked - Kittredge and a smuggly satisfied A Ng Aaa —e Dexter. _ At the conclusion of the play, Tracy tells George she « can’t marry him, to the delight of Dexter and Dinah. She also turns down MacCauley when he offers to marry her because he caused all of the problems. Dexter takes charge instructing Tracy what to tell the impatient wedding guests. He then proposes to Tracy and she accepts, to the delight of her family and the audience. Thomas the butler played by Alan Mosser, the night watchman Mac portrayed by Doyle Hoggott, and Edward Morrell as Dr. Parsons, the preacher, round out the cast, and each turns in a top notch performance. Several people in the audience commented on enjoying the play. “I’m really glad I came, it was good,” said one student.--by Michelle McElwee Scott Johnson, Stacy Embry, Mark Fishback, Nancy Seville, Steve Mirer and Cathy Brandt were all on the stage for the dramatic climax of the play.

Philadelphia Story |119 Challengeof the Future She stood on the stage relaying a message, and each word not only expressed the determination in her heart, but also reflected everything her late husband worked and died for-- brotherhood and equal rights for all people. Coretta Scott King, wife of the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., spoke on “Civil Rights and the Challenge of the Future” in Emens’ Auditorium on Wednesday, November 7. Her speech was made possible by the Annual Marie Smith Gray Memorial Lecture, and centered on the violation of basic human rights and ways to end these violations. One of the strongest concerns of King is the right of free public education. “I believe very deeply that free public education is a basic human right, but today it is obscured by bussing. If free public education can be accomplished anywhere, it can be accomplished in the wealthiest, most powerful country on earth--the United States,” she said. Mrs. King went on to express the need for a national health plan as well as the need for the improvement of free public education. 120 | Coretta King She explained that the United States and South Africa are the only major countries that provide no national health plan for their people. Voting was another issue discussed by King. She commented that voting is also a basic human right which was once denied to both blacks and women, and was declared a “privilege.” Today, however, voting is a right employed by _ involved citizens regardless of race or sex. “Clearly, we have made _ tremendous progress of shattering discrimination at the polls,” King said. She advised all young people who are eligible to vote, to excercise their right--“the right that people fought and died for.” “If you don’t vote, you don’t have a right to complain about the things you see that go on in society,” she said. Although King expressed a great need for the improvement of basic human rights, she pointed out that the equal rights movement Final goodbyes are expressed by Coretta King as she prepares to depart her lecture at Emens.

She commended President Carter for appointing more black, Hispanic, and women judges to the courts than any other president in history. King went on to describe the purpose of The Martin Luther King, Jr., Center for Social Change in Atlanta. King, president of this memorial to her late husband, explained that the Center stresses the need for nonviolent social change in our world. She continued by praising her late husband for his work for humanity, and for giving the gift of himself. “The challenge for all of us tonight is to look inside ourselves, to see the motivation, and to decide what we want to do with our lives,” King said. “We can’t all be Martin Luther King, Jrs., but we can be our best selves.”--by Sue Mileff Voting, education, and national health care were three of the topics discussed by Mrs. King during her lecture.

Opening with “I Believe in Love” off the “Celebrate Me Home” album, Loggins and his six-man band played for over two hours to a full house. Loggins was the same dynamic showman old fans remembered. His enthusiastic energy projected itself into the crowd, and they responded with cheers and applause to both his polished musical performance and on- stage antics. Jumping from one end of the stage to the other, his mid-air turns and walk across the orchestra pit wall brought him closer to the audience than most performers allow themselves to be drawn. Loggins has aged since his years with Jim Messina, but it has been a mature evolution, which was evident in his solo compositions. Included in the concert were “Daddy’s Back” and “Lady Luck” from “Celebrate Me Home;” “Wait a While” and “Easy Driver” from his “Nightwatch” LP and “Keep the Fire,” “Love Has Come of Age” and “Junkanoo Holiday” from his “Keep the Fire” album. Loggins also performed “This Is It,” which was ranked number nine on the charts at the time of the concert. Old favorites were not forgotten as Loggins included some of the best known Loggins and Messina hits in the show. With Concert-goers got a surprise when Steve Forbert played warm-up for Loggins. Forbert is generally recognized as one of the best new talents of the year. --photo by Tom Nemcik band member Mike Hamilton on acoustic guitar, Loggins performed “Watching the River Run,” “Long Tail Cat,” “House at Pooh Corner” and “Danny’s Song.” Other old L M favorites included “Valevala” and “Angry Eyes.” The enthusiastic audience refused to let Loggins end the show with “Easy Driver,” and he returned: for his first encore, “Whenever I Call You Friend” off the “Nightwatch” album. Even that wasn’t enough for the crowd, and they called him back for a second encore.

Annie felt pleased with this break-through, but suddenly, a glob of food came sailing through the air and landed on her face. As the warm mess slowly slid down Annie’s face, her pleasure in victory had turned to frustration in defeat. The “Miracle Worker” Annie Sullivan then knew that the road ahead would be a bumpy one. This was one of the enthralling scenes from the play “The Miracle Worker” which was presented January 16 through 19 at the Ball State Theatre. “The Miracle Worker,” written William Gibson, is the story of the beginning of a lifelong learning experience and friend- ship between the blind, deaf Helen Keller and her sensitive, but strict teacher Annie Sullivan. The characters were portrayed very realistically throughout the production which was directed by David C. Shawger, Jr. The spoiled, temperamental Helen Keller was played by Marcia Swanger. She ex- hibited excellent self-control in her role as a blind, deaf child who was unaware of the world around her. Swanger used very dramatic body language to demonstrate to the audience the depth of the character she was portraying, and not being able to speak during the play did not hinder her per- formance at all. Along with the dramatic role of Helen went the character of Annie Sullivan, which was successfully portrayed by Denise La Croix. Annie was a self-reliant, persistant Irish girl that was determined to help Helen learn to communicate with the world around her. La Croix adapted to the role of Annie from the Irish accent she spouted out, to the “never-give-in” attitude she exhibited. Annie's “never-give-in’ attitude surfaced many times as she encountered Helen’s spoil- ed, sometimes violent tantrums: During the exhausting scene in the Keller dining room, when Annie was trying to teach Helen table manners, both girls were pun- 124 | Miracle Worker by. ching each other and rolling around on the floor. Annie took plenty of abuse from Helen as they fought, but she found some triumph as she finally exclaimed to Helen’s family, “The room’s a mess, but Helen’s napkin is folded.” Annie took no pity on Helen because she was blind and deaf, but Helen’s mother Kate, played by Lisa Pettett, provided the ‘poor child with everything she wanted-- even though she didn’t need everything. Helen received most of Kate’s attention, _and this spoiled her, but the treatment she received from her father did not help matters. W. Richard Jones, who portrayed Captain Keller, Helen’s father, developed his character into a hot-tempered, callous man who would rather have tolerated a hurricane than one of Helen’s tantrums. Captain Keller felt as though no one and nothing could help Helen, but he finally softened to the fact that Annie was in essence, ‘taming’ his child. James Keller, played by Edward Morrell, like his father had little tolerance for Helen’s behavior. James’ cynical attitude emerged James Keller, Helen’s brother, played by Edward Morrell, had a hot-temper and little patience for the young girl’s tantrums. By the end of the play, however, he came to realize the importance of Helen’s teacher. --photo by William E. Vance from the resentment he felt toward Helen because she received so much attention. This attitude was successfully changed by Morrell halfway through the play as the character of J ames finally realized that Helen could be helped to learn, and that this help would come from Annie. The play was constantly building, until Annie’s hard work with Helen finally surfac- ed. The last scene in the yard of the Keller home brought tears to the eyes of the au- dience as Helen felt the cool, fresh water on her body, grabbed Annie’s hand, and spelled w-a-t-e-r into it. This was the beginning at the end. Together, Helen and Annie had opened Helen’s mind to communication, and closed the door to the dark, silent world the child had been living in. This was the beginning of a new Helen Keller--a Helen Keller that could understand and be understood. When asked about the success of the play, Sonia Guy, junior theater major, replied, “You know a play is a success when it stimulates the correct emotions from the audience that the playwright, the director, and the actors had intended. In this context ‘The Miracle Worker’ was a great success.” --by Sue Mileff As the play opens, Helen (played by Marsha Swanger) is a child dif- ficult to handle and unable to communicate. Through the work of her teacher, Annie, by the end of the play, she is a charming girl able to understand her world. --photo by William E. Vance Miracle Worker A Message of Love Nig eople magazine is always full of moody actors who couldn't get along with their co-stars. But there were 53 people in the Theatre Department’s production of “Jesus Christ Superstar” and according to their director, it was an “ideal cast.” Alan English had wanted to do the play for several years, and said he was excited about directing it. Students from both the music and theatre departments had parts in the production and practiced for six weeks before the show opened. All the dreams and work were evident, however, on April 24 when the show played to a sell-out crowd. In fact, the show sold out for every performance, and the box office received so many calls for tickets that an extra show was scheduled. The musical, by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber, is the story of the last seven days of Christ’s life, as seen through the eyes of Judas. Sonny Guy, Bristol sophomore, was the assistant stage manager for the play. “It involves the torment of Judas,” she said, “He really was fulfilling God’s pro- phecy. It follows the celebration of the ac- ceptance of Christ and when the crowd turns. And it deals with the torment of Caiaphas and Pilate when they try to figure out what to do about Christ.” Don Cochren, Muncie junior, played Jesus. He had studied the part for five years and had it memorized even before the audi- tions. “It’s a part I always wanted to do,” he said, “It fulfilled the goal for sure. It really was a good experience.” Cochren took voice lessons through autumn and winter quarters to prepare for the singing role of Jesus. “I had done some singing in musicals before,” he said, “but nothing of that de pth. It’s a lot of difficult singing. I just told myself I was going to get it and I gave it my best.” Cochren’s best and the best of the direc- tors, crew, and the rest of the cast made Having studied the part for five years, Don Cochren, Muncie junior, took voice lessons through autumn and winter. quarters to prepare for the singing role. --photo by William E. Vance 126 | Jesus Christ Superstar “Jesus Christ Superstar” such a success. Greg’ Haydock as Judas, Jill Hoffman as Mary Magdalene, Tom Casey as King Herod, Ron Peo as Pilate and Ray Chambers as Caiaphas turned in outstanding performances. A Carmel sophomore said, “The acting was excellent and the music was good. They picked a good show to produce. I thought Jesus was portrayed exceptionally well.” She also enjoyed the physical aspects of the show. “T really liked the costumes. I thought the props were very convincing, and the set was well-arranged. It was an invigorationg show. When I went out I had a very different feel- ing than when I went in.” Sonny Guy attributes much of that feeling to the show's director. “Dr. English’s first commitment is to the theater,” she said. The traveling show was exploitative, an extravaganza. What he was after was the realism, not the commer- cialism. He wanted to get the real feeling.” The set, designed by Kip Shawger, also ad- ded to the feeling. It was composed .of various platforms, which seemed to disap- pear when the stage went dark. But when the lights came up, the stage also seemed to light up. The position of people on the different ramps and platforms also signified their im- portance. A fog machine added to the eeriness of Judas’ suicide by hanging, in a frightening, realistic way. Dr. Phil Ewart was musical director for the show, and Kathy Brown, Huntington senior, was the assistant director. With English, they helped to put the show together. Guy said, “There were 53 people in the cast and everyone got along so well. The at- titudes of the leads and of the chorus were great. I’ve never seen so many people get along so well. I attribute it mostly to the mood the director sets at the beginning.” “I wasn't prepared for the religious impact the play had on me personally,” said English, “I think the entire cast shared the same feel- ings.” -Cochren said, “The show spoke mainly of love. And the cast showed that. It was a tight cast and there were a lot of good feelings. I think that was the message Jesus was trying to give. Love.’’--by Gina Linville Jesus Christ Superstar is the story of the last seven days of Christ's life, as seen through the eyes of Judas. The costumes, stage design and cast camraderie brought the play to a successful climax. --photo by William E.

This is the sad saga of one ordinary student, Joe Schmo, who entered the Twilight Zone of red-tape--and never returned. Read and take heed. Like most freshmen, Joe Schmo came to BSU naive and innocent. Before that fated day of orienta- tion, his only contact with a com- puter was his monthly bank state- ment and _ recorded phone messages. He had no idea of what to expect. His first clue of impending disaster came as he approached the large, looming yellow-brick building. Suddenly everyone around him seemed strange. The students all had tired, drawn, tor- tured expressions. The men _ in three-piece suits all had tiny beady eyes and resembled Richard Nixon. The women in polyester pant suits and Gucci shoes had the eyes of Morticia Adams, the teeth of Lassie and the humor of Don Rickles. Impartial schedules were scat- tered around the dank hallways. Immense computer listings declared classes closed and the typewriters in the Bursar’s office never stopped spitting out bills, fines and unpaid balances. Joe Schmo’s heart began to pound. He wiped his sweaty palms on his jeans and--bravely--continued on. He came to college to get a degree, he reminded himself. To get a degree he would probably have to take some courses. To do that he would need the help of his advisor. He knew the task before 130 Red Tape him wouldn’t be easy, but there was no turning back now. After climbing over students cry- ing in the hallways--moaning about required courses and over-loads-- Joe finally made it up the 64 stairs to his advisor’s cubby-hole. It was 11:30. Mr. Simon C. Fukwad, Joe’s advisor, was out to lunch. Joe waited, practicing over and over his plea for Philosophy 162. He had to have that class. At 1:30 Mr. Simon C. Fukwad returned from lunch. But he had spilled soup on his favorite tie and wasn’t seeing any students the rest of the day. The secretary returned to polishing her nails. Joe Schmo didn’t give up. Early the next morning he returned, clut- ching a list of his demands--four courses that he absolutely had to have--or else. He marched up to Fukwad’s office. And then the real battle began. From behind his thick bi-focals, Mr. Simon C.

Fukwad insisted that Beginning Bowling, Cooking 100, Latin 167, and Marine Micro- Biology were the essential classes for everyone--including Joe.

Joe had to make four more trips up and down the 64 stairs to Mr. Simon C. Fukwad’s of- fice. He developed six blisters, one headache, changed his major twice, called Mr. Fukwad every imaginable obscene name--but finally had a schedule of four courses (not including Philosophy 162). Joe Schmo was about to sigh with relief--but he had one more office to visit--the Bursar.... Before he even got to the door, Joe could hear low and eerie moans coming trom the horrible of- fice. Dozens of skinn y, starving students were lined up--waiting to sign away their last dollars--just for an education. As Joe joined the ranks and waited, he realized that the moaning was coming from a back room. “So that’s where they lock up students who can’t pay,” said Joe to himself.

That has to be paid before you can take these classes.” “Whatlr That cant be. I just enrolled last week. That computer's wrong. I haven't even attended one class yet!” screamed Joe. Everyone else stood back. “Mr. Schmo, the computer is never wrong. Pay up.” snarled the brain- washed administrator. That was it. The last straw. Joe's head began to spin. His eyes became glazed. He staggered out, foaming at the mouth. “But I only have $2.84,” he muttered over and over to himself. “Just enough for lunch at Kazoo’s....” he screamed « over his shoulder--but no one listen- ed.

They should do this everyday.” But this indeed was more than an everyday event. Frisbee specialists and clowns entertained the old as well as the young in the audience.

And other groups took this op- portunity to gather converts for the causes of presidential candidates, the ERA and health foods. In the late afternoon, as the boothes came down, the music sub- sided and the crowd dispersed, some were wishing for another unusual Ball State Tuesday. “T think it should become an an- nual event because everyone and everything is affected by energy.

But if you're not into jogging--or even tend to be chubby, lazy or just slow, more than plain huffing and puffing will be needed. The invention of the wheel was made for just that purpose. Such life-savers as roller skates and skate boards often served as solutions to atl the getting-to-class-on-time cr isis.

Sweeney 142 Getting to Class a SN Getting to Class 143 The Smile of the Soul For art students, a painting,a design or a clay pot are more than simple objects, they are expressions | gar before you enter, you can sense that this old, graceful building is different from all the others. Above one of the entrances, “Art is the smile of the soul” is carved in giant gothic letters. Inside the building, you can actually see the smiles. The mood is everywhere. Sharp, pungent odors of ink, paint and rubber cement hover even in the hallways. From one of the studios, a radio blares and becomes the background for the rest of the mingling, chaotic sounds. In the distance you can hear a saw buzz, chewing and molding a piece of wood. Thick slabs of clay are being thrown and pounded into shapes, and the splatter of paint, ink and plaster, at times, sounds almost like rain. Of course, above it all, the murmur of students d iscussing, critiquing and defending their projects can be heard rushing through the building, like water through its old, creaky pipes. For these students the sounds, the studios and the communication are all essential. They’re art students; they’re artists, designers and creators, and this college of tools and materials is their world. “They know who they are. They know what they can do,” stated Marvin Reichle, associate professor of art. “I’ve always felt that students in the Art Department have a way about them that makes them exclusive, he said. Certainly, art majors can’t be 144 Art Gallery called typical students. While everyone else may spend his time reading textbooks, taking notes, studying and writing term papers, an art student may go for an entire year without having to buy a book or without even having to make a major excursion to Bracken Library. This doesn’t mean, however that students in art have it easy, just drawing pretty pictures and playing with the clay. On the contrary, they seem to practically live in the studios, eat with their designs and sleep with their drawing pencils. The labs or studios are usually scheduled to meet for two hours on three days of the week. During that class time the instructor gives explanations and guidelines for the projects. Students then work on the iat assignment, discussing and critiquing each others’ work. “But studios can also be fun--if you make them that way,” explained David Morford, Marion sophomore. “You talk, do some work and help each other out. It’s kind of like an ‘all for one’ deal,” he said. In addition to this aspect of group effort, there is also a certain atmosphere or mood that sets art classes apart from most other courses. Everything seems more informal and relaxed. Students, with their cups of coffee or bags of Fritos, can be found working just Despite the chaotic clutter of the studios, most students, like Karen Riddle, manage to at least find a corner to work in. Although they are in high demand, most studios are limited to 13 to 15 students. --photo by Lori Beck Although a wide range of tools and materials is essential to an art student, their high costs can also cause a problem. One tube of oil paint can cost up to $4.50 and one oil brush up to $3.50. --photo by Lori Beck Wx Smile about anywhere, in any way. If they're comfortable working on the floor, they simply pick out a spot without wet paint splotches and sit down. If they’re drawing a tree, they pack up their portable warehouse of supplies and move out to the Quad. If a student felt that he could be more open and creative while standing on his head in the center of the room, no one would probably stop him. According to Reichle, who has taught at Ball State for 28 years, there is a certain dynamic force to every class. “It can be wild and very exciting,” he said. Reichle also added that, as an instructor, once youve taught your students the basic rules and fundamentals of art, you actually encourage them to break the rules. “You have to let them go on in their direction-- whatever way their talents and inspirations take them.” Such emphasis on independence and individuality is what has primarily attracted many students. Pat Anderson, Chesterton senior, said, “I love creating and exploring what I can do. It’s a good feeling to be able to work with my hands and “I have five classes--but only 14 hours. I don’t know how the hell an art major could ever graduate on time,’ said Fred Shields, Indianapolis senior. Besides those six class hours, students are also expected to put in their own time on assignments. Anderson said, “I spend all day in the Art Building. Then as soon as I eat dinner, I start working again-- until about 11 p.m. or 12 p.m. But after awhile you get numb to it-- numb to all the time you have to spend.” According to Dr. Ned Griner, head of the Art Department, most art courses are only worth three credits so that students “can take more classes during one quarter and get more exposure to different areas .” He also added, however, that the department is seriously considering again offering four credits for a studio. Because of all the red tape involved, Griner also said that he felt it would be at least two more years before it could be implemented. Besides the problem of the time involved, many art majors also find that the cost of required supplies can be a pain in the pocket. “At the beginning of a quarter everyone else is buying books; I’m buying out put my ideas into a physical form Ce that I--and everyone else-can see.” ce ° ° I need creativity, gives me something to feel good about, something I can be proud A of offer unique rewards, there are also aspects of the classes that cause unique hassles.

They area part of art.” In addition to those unique problems that art majors encounter, Bertrand also mentioned a difficult situation that art teachers have to deal with. Grades. “You just don’t haye a list ‘of grades arrived at _mathematically. So, in the final analysis, it means that you're playing god. You just have to hope that you have the experience and the knowledge to be qualified for the role. I know that in 25 years of teaching I still haven’t gotten used to it,” he said. Reichle, who teaches design, pottery and ceramic courses agrees that teaching art is definitely more demanding than a simple lecture class where the instructor can read the same old yellow lecture notes year after year. “I have to pull out everything I’ve ever done and everything I know just to help one student with one _ problem-- sometimes just to get him to move one notch closer to understanding,” he said. Currently the Art Department has 26 regular full-time instructors and several part-time teachers. During the 79-80 year there were 630 declared art majors. According to Griner, this development and expansion has been the biggest change that the department has undergone over the years. In the very beginning, when Ball State was still a mere infant, the Art Department was actually housed in the Administration Building. In 1936 the current Art Building, with its ornate trimmings, relief wall tiles, and handcarved doors, was finally completed, and the Art, collections. Music, History, English and Foreign Language Departments all moved. Griner also added another difference between the art department of today and of yesterday. “Students today are much more sophisticated and professional,” he said. “The department has had to grow just to keep up with them.” One of the main ways that the instructors have kept up with the current trends and changing needs of the students is through the Art Gallery. Located in the central section of the building, the gallery is a mini-museum featuring changing exhibits, works by famous artists, special shows, lectures and tours. Since the gallery’s dedication in 1936 it has constantly acquired new works and developed new Originating from a Art Gallery 147 Smile donation from the Ball family, the gallery still boasts of eighteenth and nineteenth century paintings that are on permanent loan from the Ball Brothers Foundation. Other collections include one of ancient glass, dating back to the first century A.D. A display of American and African native art is also a part of the gallery's permanent collection. Contemporary paintings, sculpture and graphic arts are displayed in special exhibits that are changed on a monthly or bi-monthly basis. “We are very proud of this gallery,” said Dr. William Story, gallery director , “We feel we’ve done an excellent job of capturing and presenting what art is all about.” “But it’s a shame it isn’t used more,’ added Reichle. “It’s a show place. It should be a study place. Other classes use the library as a reference place. The gallery should be our reference place,” he said. According to Griner, some art classes, anthropology and humanities classes do occassionally come in and wander through. A lot of the time, however, the rooms, filled with detailed, ornate, valuable paintings and sculptures, are silent and empty. A time warp seems to surround some of the ancient works of art. “We have made every effort to use the potential of the gallery,” said Griner. “But we don’t drag people in. They have to be interested.” In its efforts to capture interest, the Art Gallery expanded so far that in 1978 it even spilled out of the building. A sculpture garden of large art works was started around the building. Although the huge steel structures were _ initially laughed at and frowned on by a great number of students, the garden now has a total of three sculptures. Plans have been made to landscape the entire area, to create a large, paved oval where classes can meet and to include benches, walks and more sculptures. According to Storey, however, about $30,000 needs to be raised before the project can be Expression is the central theme of the Art Department and the gallery.

Whenever this dream-like project becomes a reality, itll just be another way for art students to express themselves, their creativity and their talents. It may become the link between the book-world of most students and the abstract- world of art majors. At times that gap now seems wide. Artists are still stereotyped as hippies splattered with paint and doing their own things. But the art department is simply different. It’s made up of a group of unique students working in an unusual atmosphere, creating original, individual works of art. They're artists. --by Pam Kiser 148 Art Gallery Responsible for preparing Gallery exhibits, Mr. rett Card works as a properties attendant, Nearly 35,000 students and tourists pass through the Gallery ‘Jeffrey Cummins PRCT Saree « % A Major Dedication Long hours, hot coffee, no sleep, les one in the morning. Most students are asleep in their rooms, blankets tucked snugly around them as they dream of home or the opposite sex. Others are just stumbling home to the dorm after a night of heavy partying. Still others (a relentless few) are studying... in the study lounges of overcrowded dorms, in the semi- restricted studios of the College of Architecture and Planning, in secluded rooms of the music building, in the nightly-quiet of the theatre. Pouring over his drawings, the archie is in his element of late-night chaotic confusion with blueprints and X-acto knives scattered all around. It’s the ideal secondary- educational scene of intense concentration. The person, however, is not the stereotypical devoted student. He isn’t tall and wiry with a pair of thick glasses and a calculator on his belt. He doesn’t scurry through the library with a handful of books and his eyes half closed. No, the only trait he has in common with his stereotype is the long hours he spends studying. The average architecture student spends at least two hours working out of class for every hour spent in class with spurts of 40 to 50 hours on weeks when projects are due. Archies often work from dusk to dawn. All-nighters are usually hectic, demanding, a battle against the clock for time; but knowing that everyone goes through the | Early October was warm enough for Jay Farlow, Fort Wayne junior, to practice on his tuba between Bracken and Architecture. Campus musicians grabbed valuable practice whenever and wherever possible. --photo by Kathy Torok same anguish helps the individual student to persevere. “All-nighters can be a kind of social event,” Glenn Gareis, 23, of West Lafayette said. “Sometimes theyre even furnished with refreshments to keep everyone happy and motivated.” Walking south on McKinley to the Music Department, one passes the hive of another swarm of busy majors. The music major spends his extra time developing musical talent. “The drive or fanaticism of the person who has made his choice . will eschew anything else to develop the talent he hopes he has,” said Dr. Robert Hargreaves, director of the School of Music. Lori Smith, Fairmount senior, is less philosophic about why she spends 20 hours a week with her music studies and University Singers. “I know I’m a senior, and I and hard work Dog-tired, Mark Wolf, Parker City senior, works late in the Art Building with his pet Sandy. Students with majors which required infinite amounts of work often went without sleep. --photo by Kim Ferrill Plenty of hot coffee is necessary to pull late-night duty in the Architecture Department. Ed Soots, Laura Yucas, Bill Gerstner, and Karle McKinster work on their theses. --photo by Michael G. Hegyan Jr. Dedicated Majors 151 Dedication only have seven months more to go, compared to the three years I’ve already gone through.” Because the music field has become much more diversified, the music student of today is, as Dr. Hargreaves said, “more practical about the future.” Technology has provided great opportunities -for music students in television and radio, and music students are taking advantage of this. Musicians are no longer thought of as ‘the greasy-headed weirdos who practice on the outskirts of campus. Leaving the music department, and entering the theater department, late night turns into early morning. Last minute preparations are being made for the next days performance. These students work five or six hours a day for weeks before a production is ready. Dr. Edward Strother, Theater Department Chairman, defined the devoted theater major as “one who is not narrow but will explore and participate in all aspects of theater.” The theater department depends on outstanding students to get new students involved in programs. Each time a student finishes a no- credit task, he writes it down in his file. This file, later on, can help the student get character references for prospective employees. There is yet another student still studying in the lounge of her dorm. The nursing major is just finishing up a care plan for the next day. The student must not only study from three to four hours every night, but must also complete a clinical course during the junior and senior years. This clinical study requires four hours of work in the hospital for which the student receives one credit hour. While working in the hospital, the students are expected 152 Dedicated Majors to do everything that a regular nurse would do. Linda Landrus, 20, of Avon, said of nursing, “It’s a lot harder than what I expected. There is a tremendous amount of respon- sibility when caring for someone who is ill.” Walking across campus to the dorms after a night spent over drafts, papers, dialogue, or textbooks, the architecture, theater, music, and nursing majors watch the empty streets fill with morning traffic. They feel a kind of strange sensation in seeing other people preparing for another day of classes when they still have the same clothes on from the previous day. It is usually after nights like this that the devoted students feel like giving up. They have stamina limits like everyone else. They're not the stereotypical student that sleeps, eats, and lives with books. They get sick and tired of studying too, but they never give up. As music major Jaci Taylor, 20, of Greensburg said, “It’s something deep inside.” Curt Lambert, theater major from Markle, said “For me, it’s the desire to make people laugh by doing what I love’ most --performing. --by Debbie Mayer Despite the lab time provided for photo 230 students, Sally Slater, like most journalism students, spends a great deal of her own time taking pictures and developing them. --photo by Kim Ferrill Not all dedicated majors are what they appear to be at all.

It knows you and remembers you. In_ practically every aspect of your life the Computer Center has some input. The two main-frame computers located in the East Quadrangle are the heart of the Computer Center. Some 90 terminals are located across campus. Cooper and the Practical Arts building house some terminals as does the new Business College building and East Quadrangle. The entire Computer Center, aided by the use of the terminals, is used for the administrative, instructional and research needs of the university and surrounding community. Paychecks, invoice bills, regis- tration, mailing labels, sorority rush cards and grades are all functions of the computer system. The computer is not only used by computer science majors and minors. According to Paul Hernandez, assistant director of the University Computer Center, “If a student wants to use the computer and has authorization by a department head or professor, they can apply through forms to use the computer for class or research projects.” Programming of the computer can be done in two _ ways, interactively (directly into a terminal) or by batch processing.

No matter who prepares the key punch cards, mistakes are almost inevitable. The excess error riddled cards are given to Cannon Industries for the handicapped, said Hernandez. The company then sells the cards for a_ profit. Annually, about five million cards are given to Cannon Industries. “Many people profit from the Computer Center,” said Her- nandez, “whether directly or indirectly. Usage of the computer has grown and is continuing to grow. People are able to do more faster.” The future of the Computer Center is bright. With the installation of the terminals in the new College of Business and the plans for a data base that will keep all university information in a central file for improved accuracy, Hernandez said the ability of the Computer Center to serve the students and the university is growing. Without further growth, Her- nandez said, the Computer Center is the largest installation in Muncie. It is even larger than the Ball Corporations installation as well as the Warner Gear and Westing- house installations. Everyday in almost every way the Computer Center influences each student’s later But as Hernandez said of the never-ending errors, “Ninety-nine percent of the errors coming from the computer are human errors. These errors are referred to as GIGO, | said Hernandez, “Garbage In, Garbage Out.” Next time you receive a duplicate bill or an incorrect partial schedule, remember where the 99 percent error is from and understand the Computer Centers theory of GIGO. --by Lori Loudenback Although students are supposed to use terminals for no longer than an hour, problems of hogging the equipment are prevalent, especially towards the end of a quarter.

Title IX battles inequality in education jb 1972 Congress passed a law that caused an uproar in schools all over the country. After seven years that piece of legislation, called Title IX, is still causing controversy in both high schools and universities-- including Ball State. Very simply, Title IX states, “No person in the U.S. shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or _ activity receiving federal financial assistance.” Dr. Jean Arrasmith, head of the women’s physical education department broke it down further by saying that students could not be separated on the basis of sex. This not only includes physical education, but health, home economics and business as well. Until three years ago, the physical education classes were listed as either men’s classes or women’s classes, but this has been changed. “The student can take any course he wants to take,” stated Arrasmith. Patti Kovacs, South Bend junior, has had classes both ways and says that she prefers the new system. “There should be __ interaction between students. It’s a part of growing up,’ she said. Title IX has been a big benefit for women’s athletics and _ physical education all across the country. According to September ’79 Womens Sports Magazine, since the law’s enactment in 1972 participation in women’s athletics has increased 250 percent. Here, the intercollegiate sports 160 Title IX teams have almost equaled out with 13 men’s sports and 12 women’s sports. However, some complaints of inequality and some_ problems within the system still plagued Ball State. With most of the women’s teams cramped into Ball Gym, the lack of space and facilities was one of the major complaints. During the fall at least four women’s teams practiced in the small, out-dated Ball Gym, and it certainly wasn’t uncommon for basketballs to interrupt a badminton drill or for a volleyball player to find herself running into a balance beam. After the situation reached a point that some girls called ridiculous, a change was finally made. The womens gymnastic team was allowed to practice with the men’s team in the University Gym one day a week. On the other hand, women werent the only ones with gripes against the Athletic Department. Some male swimmers complained that since they had to share University Pool with the women’s team, the men’s team wasn't getting enough practice and was, therefore, suffering. By November,’ plans _ of constructing a new _ recreational building to help ease the space shortage were being discussed. It was estimated, however, that the building could cost millions of dollars; little else was heard about the possible project. But, the Title IX controversies didn’t just go away. Even women’s intramural teams and women who just wanted to use the Ball Gym and University Gym facilities got Practicing in the Gymnastics room of University Gym, the men’s team has the use of a wide variety of space and new equipment. Being over-crowded is no problem for them. --photo by Terry Clark into the action and _ started demanding their share of equality and fair-play. For weeks the “Letters to the Editor” section of the Daily News became _ the sounding board of their complaints. Angry females wrote in about their encounters with “basketball- grabbing and _ court-hogging” males. The men retaliated with their own letters about “basketball- grabbing and _ court-hogging” females. When specific rules and guidelines were posted in the gyms, the problems were at least lessoned, for awhile. No matter how many rules and regulations were made, however, there were still differences between the men’s and women’s athletics, and there were still complaints. Even though not everyone was satisfied with the way Title IX was working at Ball State, one thing was still obvious. That one piece of legislation brought a great deal of changes and a great deal of controversy. --by Darlene Banta Cramped into the old, out-dated Ball Gym Elaine Houck and Tammy Sparks have to practice around and inbetween games of volleyball and basketball practices. --photo by Terry Clark Due to the space shortage in Ball Gym, classes sometimes have to meet in whatever available space there is.

She glances at the clock realizing her husband would be home in any moment. Reaching over to shut off the tea kettle, she tumbles over several canisters standing in the way. “Why didn’t they teach me how to deal with this stuff in college!” They do. Several courses are offered to students with no prerequisites that can help them with their everyday life during and after college. There are classes to teach you how to cook and how to handle and feed children. There is even a class to aid in family relations. The majority of these classes are taught in the Department of Home Economics. According to Helen Smith, chairperson of the depart- ment, the classes taken by most students are Meal Planning and Food Preparation, both 100 courses. The classes are for everyone Smith said, “In the Foods 100 class there is a high percentage of boys.” Non-Home Economics majors can take courses teaching the basics of nutrition, the principles of home art, and home care for the sick. Courses in the Home Economics Department can help all students, male or female, to cope as they progress through life, Smith said. Sewing to mend and create can save students money and possibly become a hobby. A quarter of Clothing 100 can provide the basic skills. Getting along with other family members is 16 2 F amily Planning Classes important and will be important in a student’s later life, Smith said. Family Relations 480 is offered to help in family relations as well as aid in understanding what makes a good mate and knowing when one is found. A growing child arouses a basketfull of situations to deal with and Child Development 360 will help a parent understand these situations. Before and after a family is started, decisions on housing are important and often frightening. Discussions and readings in Family Housing 220 may help in the housing problems of life. Once a home is_ obtained, knowledge gained by a Design and Furnishings 230 class may help in creating the perfect atmosphere for the perfect price. To get the most from an income, Problems in Consumer Buying 450 could prove to be a helpful course. “We live in a consumer society, but some people are illiterate in consumerism,” said Elizabeth Craylor, assistant professor in the Home Economics Department. “Consumer Buying offers the education,” said Craylor, “so we can spend our resources properly and get the most from them.” The life of a student or former student seemingly won’t get easier. A day may always be full of crying, ringing, steaming and craziness, but the tense cry of “Why didn’t they teach me this in college,” is no longer a valid cop-out. Now, in almost all areas of life, the university offers classes to help students cope for the rest of their lives.--by Lori Loudenback No longer are home economics courses reserved only for females.

Vance ; | duc bh Teachin o Experience Instructors teach examples from outside world Lhe best teachers aren't always the ones with degrees. Who _ is better qualified to teach newswriting than a former reporter, or business law than a retired lawyer? While Ball State has many professors who earned their teaching degrees after successful careers in their chosen fields, there are also several lecturers here who instruct classes while pursuing full- time careers, or after a lifetime of work in their specialized fields. Joseph Costa, photojournalism lecturer, is one such man. In his 60 vears of photographic experience, he has seen many radical changes. The biggest photographic difference between 1920, when Costa began his work, and today is the tools photographers use. He has seen the trend turn from the large, glass plate cameras of his youth to today’s smaller 35 mm models. Formal education is another difference in today’s photo- journalism, Costa said. Although Dr. Norman Norton, Biology Department Chairman. has a degree, he spent several vears outside the university working for research firms. --photo by Greg Nucifora A popular lecturer in photojournalism, Joseph Costa teaches his students the fundamentals of photography based on his own 60 vears of experience. --photo by Terry Clark “In the early days there was no education,” he said. “We learned by trial and error and doing.” The National Press Photographers Association has been emphasizing education for the past 30 vears, Costa said. . Costa began lecturing here three vears ago when the journalism department contacted him. His former professional experience over the vears in such widely publicized events as the Lindberg kidnapping case has earned him a reputation that a teaching degree does not always provide. Thomas DeWeese is an attorney with the Dennis, Cross, Raisor, Jordan and Marshall Professional Corporation. He graduated from Ball State with a bachelor’s degree in marketing and a master’s in business administration. Following graduation, DeWeese worked for International Harvester in Chicago and Indianapolis, and later for Inland Container in Indianapolis in various national and international marketing ‘apacities. DeWeese often spoke to graduating seniors on marketing. When he moved to Muncie, he: contacted Ball State about a lecturing position. “I decided I'd like to keep my finger in the marketing end of the business,” said DeWeese, who has been lecturing to marketing students here for three years. Fred Graham, like DeWeese, got in touch with Ball State and found out there was a possible lecturing position open in the College of Architecture. Graham, an architect with the firm of Graham, Love and Taylor, has been lecturing students in the photographic sections of architecture since the fall quarter of 1979. Sam Greene has been an instructor in criminal justice at Ball State for two vears. He teaches courses in the introduction to criminal justice, fundamentals of law enforcement, and _ police-- community relations. Although Greene is an instructor, he does not have a teaching degree. Rather, he earned his degree in administration of justice. Greene is not currently engaged in a criminal justice career, but he was a practitioner in the field for over 10 vears. Finally, he served as superintendent of a correctional agency in a metropolitan area. Many members of the faculty have had some degree of practical experience before entering the job as instructors. Examples relating from actual on-the-job occurrences can help give students a broader insight into their particular field of study. And lectures from such teachers are usually a lot more interesting than mere textbook reading. --bv Beth Sharpe Teachers Without Degrees 165 The Forgotten Gifts Kind class gestures that turned to old junk liter is not only one Ball State University. Hidden somewhere within the old, ivy-covered buildings, | buried somewhere beneath the ancient files in the Administration Building ---there exists another university, a college different from the one that most students see. It may be half-forgotten and half-dead, but it’s still there: the Ball State of the past, the college alive with history, legends and myths. Linked to every building is a story, and to every name on the alumni lists, a unique contribution is connected. Yet few students notice. Each day hundreds walk through the front entrance way of the Student Center. Some may pause to glance up at a banner or sign draped across the archway, but certainly few, if any, realize that a $1,000 donation from the class of 1942 helped make that stone archway possible. All around campus, however, other small remnants of the past can be stumbled upon. Other unusual gifts that graduating classes left behind can be found in almost any obscure corner and can include anything from the football field scoreboard (class of ’46), to a plaque in the Student Center of emeritus Pittenger(class of 42), to the fireplace in the East Lounge of the Student Center (class of ’52). Beginning in 1929, when the university was still Ball State Teachers College, these class gifts actually originated out of the profits from the Orient yearbook. 166 Class Gifts The yearbook was sponsored by the senior class, and at the end of the year whatever money was left from sales and production returned to the senior class. “The dollars were there, and they had a choice of throwing a big party or doing something constructive for the university. They chose something constructive,” said Mr. Robert Linson, alumni director and class sponsor from 1955 to 1970. The clock mounted in the tower of the North Quad, donated by the class of 1929, was the first class gift to the university. The chimes in the clock, however, that can be heard over most of the campus every hour, weren't added until 1937. The method of using Orient funds for gifts came to an end, however, in 1952 when the Orient separated from the senior classes and became an_ independent organization itself. According to Dr. Louis Ingelhart, Director of aE: e Student Publications and Jour- nalism Department Chairman from 1955 to 1979, the yearbook began “primarily as a senior memory album.” It was named the Orient because Ball State was then still called the Eastern Branch of the Northern Indiana Normal School. By the late ’50’s, though, “the book covered the interests of all the students. The university, therefore, allocated money from the general funds to help support its production,” said Ingelhart. Although their funds were then much smaller and the classes much larger, the graduating seniors still continued to donate gifts to the university for another 18 years. In addition to the donation by the class of 1942 for the Student Center archway, the Student Center also holds many other gifts from classes and students, such as paintings, plaques and fireplaces. --photo by F.A. Phillips Jr. At one time, a plaque of W.E. Wagoner hung on the lobby wall of Wagoner hall, but an admiring vandalist removed the class gift of 1945. Hardly anyone notices, though, --photo by F.A.

By 1970, however, the class system died, and, along with it, the class gifts. “It was just part of the evolution of the campus,” said Linson. “In a way I hated to see the class system go, but I realized it just wasnt feasible any longer,” he added. Although the fountain and garden near the East Quad were a popular congregation spot for students during the 1930's, all that collects now is litter and trash. --photo by F.A. Phillips Jr. The class of 1961 doanted $706.92 for a sign that said “Ball State Teachers College.” Only five years later, however, Ball State became a university and the sign had to be replaced. --photo by F.A. Phillips Jr. The class organization may be gone, but the gifts that those past students left behind are certainly still a part of Ball State. Besides the senior donations, individuals or small groups also often implanted their own miscellaneous contri- butions. When a statue was erected on campus in 1937, the dedication ceremony was barely over before students decided that its official name, Beneficence, was definitely too long and formal. Ever since then the winged woman carrying her box of untold treasures (and the accomplice in many pranks) has simply been called “Benny.” Just as the nickname has survived, so has Benny's legend. The story that says when a virgin is knowing Benny will flap her huge stone wings, has been passed on to new freshmen and tested by curious boyfriends for more than 40 years. In addition, no one really knows who first called the entrances of Studebaker “fishbowls” or who was the first “birthday boy’ to be ceremoniously thrown in the duck pond, but those are both just examples of traditions left to the university by its alumni. They're both current and yet part of the past. Like Benny and her legend, like the Student Center archway, the picnic shelter and the other senior class gifts, they're a part of the other Ball State. The Ball State that most students don’t see, the one alive with legends, traditions m Kiser Class Gifts 169 “Take My Advice...” Each advisor has 800 students per quarter “The only time I went to see my advisor, he assisted me in choosing classes. He explained why I should take this or that class,” replied Jane Beshuk, Pataskala, Ohio, sopho- more. Tammy Mulvany, a senior from Brookville, said that her advisor “mapped out” the courses she had to take and handed them to her. “After that they don’t do anything, but you can call them about classes if you have any questions.” “Tm sure they try, but there are so many students that they let things slide,” commented Kathy Lee, a Fort Wayne freshman. Each advisor is responsible for an average of 800 students per quarter, which is actually an overload. Some advisors are even in charge of over 900 students. “Walk-in days” are a result of this heavy work load. “Advisors don’t have enough appointment times during the quarter,” Dr. Robert Fletcher, director of advising, pointed out. So why don’t they make more appointment times? Mrs. Huber, in her second year as an advisor, explained that there is a certain amount of paperwork that must be done. Advisors are free to schedule appointments whenever they want, but their paperwork must be kept up-to-date. Most of this paperwork pertains to class registration forms, senior folders, and other forms that directly affect students. Actually, the situation has improved compared to three years ago. For example, back then all advisors handled some of the business students at the university. Now, there are five advisors for 170 Advisors business and mathematics students alone. But, there are also more students enrolled in the College of Business as compared to three years ago. This trend shows that advising is now turning to specialization to improve the present situation. The plan for specialization would start with group orientation. Advisors would meet with groups of approxima tely 15 students for two hours. Advisors would introduce the department heads who would tell them about their major and its required courses. At that time, students would learn to use the autumn quarter schedule and undergraduate catalog to complete their class registration forms. Consequently, incoming freshmen are immediately introduced to the registration system, while getting direct help from their advisors. If the idea of mass orientation seems less personalized when compared to the present system, remember that in the long run the students will benefit. Advisors will save time by seeing most students in groups, therefore, leaving more time for the students that need specialized one-on-one attention. --by Rena Ackley Trying to remember all of the questions that needed to be asked can be a great challenge.

The students are seen all over the campus and are called “Burris Brats’ by some Ball Staters. The students, contrary to popular belief, are not on some kind of special program, they are just normal students who attend a public school. The one difference being they are located on campus with college students and are urged to take college courses. The first question being, how do they receive credit for these courses? Dr. Kenneth Foster, professor of educational administration, and _ assistant principal of Burris School, was approached for an answer. Foster readily explained the process for credit. He said the students have the choice of taking the classes for high school credit with no charge other than the high school fees, or taking the course for college credit and paying the normal fees for part-time students. Credit is not given twice at Burris School. Foster said that the fees for attending Burris are no more than those for other public high schools because of the state funding. They receive the normal state funding for each of the 750 maximum students, as well as aid from Ball State. They One of the greatest advantages of having a grade school on campus, is being able to witness some of the crazy antics of kids. Their expressions know no limits. --photo by Terry Clark receive no money from local taxes because they are not considered a separate district anymore. Another question one might ask would be why st udents would choose a school of this type. Foster said that most of their students are there because families have gone there or they have friends that have. He added that it was sort of a chain reaction, one family starts its children there and they tell another family about the program and its advantages, then that family switches its children and so forth. Foster said that the advantages to a program of this type are without an ending because students can learn how to interact with other students of various ages. Another advantage to the one building-one school program is the continuity of program. In most public schools, when students of one elementary school merge into another elementary school to form a middle school or junior high, one set has learned much more about some subjects than the other sets. At Burris, however, the student’s levels are all maintained as to their learning ability all the way through high school. The students themselves like being on campus and seeing the way college students act and live. Todd Jones, a Burris junior said he felt the Ball State students were really pretty nice and the ones he knew from classes and activities didn’t treat him badly. He said sometimes it was hard to feel accepted in college courses because the classmates seem to stare and wonder what they are doing there in their class. Laurie Burris, a Lebanon freshman, said the majority of the Burris students she had met were generally nice, but they seem stuck up. She said, “Some of the students I have seen running through the Tally Ho at lunchtime are really pushy, the others are all pretty sweet.” Derrilyu Williams, an Elkhart freshman, said they were pretty nice. Derrilyn is a music education major and she said their class went to Burris to watch the music classes of the younger grades. She said, “I was really amazed, they didn’t mess around, they did exactly what their Students attending Burris probably nave more opportunities than most elementary students.

He said, “They are always running around on campus when I am coming back from my 2:00 class. They seem like normal little kids to me.” Pam Torkelson, a South Bend sophomore, said she had observed the first graders in a music class. “They were learning some short little folk dances in their class and they were really obeying their teacher. They seem respectful, yet a little snobbiness is detectable in the older girls.” Dennis iIttenbacth,. an Indianapolis freshman, said they seem pretty nice, but he only knows one or two of them. Cindy Cross, Swayzee freshman, Burris kids--they re a fixture, a part of the campus. BSU takes them for granted, and they take BSU for granted.

These seem to be the two major opinions concerning grade point averages. “It’s important to me because I need a 3.0 accum or higher to get into graduate school. But I think that for students just trying for a bachelor’s degree, it’s not that important,” said Laurie Barr, Kettering, Ohio, junior. “I think employers look at the person and his experience and references more than his grade point average.” Art major Laura’ Moore, Rochester senior said, “Grade point averages deserve less importance than they are given. I’m more concerned with the actual art project, and I think that sometimes grades do not reflect accurately what a person is capable of doing. People are too hung up on grades.” Judy Hoyt, Indianapolis fresh- man, said “They are _ very important to me because I am on a volleyball scholarship and I must keep my average good to keep my scholarship. But I also think they are important because it is one way of telling how a person’s work habits are since grade point averages involve studying ability, attendance record, and so on. People are ranked in everything they do, and ranks are important in our society.” Political science major Scott Ford, LaPorte freshman, said “They are very important to me. A good average opens doors, especially if you want to go to graduate school.

Although many students have opinions of G.P.A., only a few know - how to compute the average. --photo by Lori Beck More students have opinions about the G.P.A. than know how to compute it for a quarter. It’s a simple system: A-4 points, B-3 points, C-2 points, D-1 point, and F-0 points. To determine a grade point average for one quarter, the student looks at his grades and interprets them in points as listed. The student then adds all the points he has received, and divides the sum by the total number of courses he has taken. This figure is the student’s grade point average for one quarter. To determine an accum, or accumulated grade point average for the total number of quarters, the student has attended school, he adds up all of his grade point averages received and divides the sum by the total number of quarters he has attended school.--by Judi Banks Long-term liabilities and investments headline another chapter for Cheryl Brown, Logansport sophomore.

WBST is a_university-funded, non-commercial radio _ station. Located at 90.7 on the FM dial, WBST has a 35 mile radius. The station has received calls from as far away as Chicago commending WBST on its broadcasting. The air hours are from noon to 4 a.m. There is a fair balance between music and news broadcasts at WBST, although the emphasis is on news. The news is presented every hour and half-hour with local and AP service, plus service between Ball State and 13 other universities. The station also broadcasts all of the games--home and away. A member of the _ Texaco- Metropolitan Opera Network, WBST provides the full schedule of Saturday broadcasts live from New York’s Metropolitan Opera each season (December through May). These programs are wired to WBST, with the charges for the service paid by Texaco. Other music programs broadcasted at WBST include the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, the Milwau- kee Symphony Orchestra, and International Festivals Orchestra. Through membership in various organizations such as the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB), the Indiana Broadcast Association (IBA), and National Public Radio, WBST brings all the news and events around the nation home to its listening audience. Not only does the station subscribe to services of national affiliations, but WBST 180 WBST also benefits from Deutsche Welle, the Association of German Broadcasters, French and Canadian Broadcasting Services, the broadcast services of the Union of South Africa, Radio Netherland, and the Pan American Union which provides information from all available Latin-American coun- tries. Through these _ services, WBST is able to blend programs of national and international consequence with important local events for the community and campus. Six years ago, WBST started broadcasting courses for college credit. These include English, Drama, Political Science, Psychology, and English Classics Drama. Anyone, students, housewives, businessmen--can tune in_ their radio at broadcast time and learn through this method.

Most students seem to feel that it has helped them to know their way around campus better and to meet new friends. But, some students seem to think that college life will be a constant party because of all of the activities that are held at orientation. Diane Nelson, Indianapolis freshman, said that it really helped her to know where things were located. Nelson said, “Well, my SOC leader was really nice and took us around to most of the buildings on campus. If she hadn’t shown us around so well, I would have been totally lost when I got here for the actual school year. Keith Bontrager, Elkart sophomore, agreed and added that his orientation leader answered all their questions pertaining to college life. Bontrager said, “I’d have been lost around here, because, man, they really tell you what life in the dorms is like, because they have been here and they know.” Cliff Pesuello, a Burkhart Hall resident, said, “I got enough of the Ad Building at orientation; I knew what it was going to be like.” Lynn Reiley, Marion freshman, on the other hand, said that orientation couldn't give students a true picture of college life. Because for many students it is the first time away from home for over a week, and at orientation we are only here for two days. Reiley said, “Many students might get the wrong impression from looking at Ball 182 Orientation State from the aspect’ of orientation. They might think it was going to be a total party and no work. Well, I hate to tell, but they are going to get a big surprise when they actually get here; if that’s how they want to look at it.” Students seemed to think that SOC leaders were well trained and represented the university well. Lisa Vandermark, a nursing major from Marion, _ said, “Considering that they only have two days in which to familiarize their group with the campus and to answer any questions the group has, they really have to be on the ball and know what they’re doing.” Most students felt that every aspect of orientation helped them to feel at ease with their campus and to know that everyone was going to be in the same boat with them when they actually arrived. Laura Hagedorn, Fort Wayne freshman, said, “Gosh, I was really scared about coming here and not oe RE PLIES knowing anybody. I came from a really small school and everyone knew everyone from the time we were all little kids. When I got here for orientation, I found that everybody else was as anxious to make some friends as I was and everyone in my group really was friendly and got to know each other right from the start.” She said she still saw some of the people in her group and they yell at each other like old friends. Of course, two days in a dormitory is not going to tell one what life is going to be like. But orientation gives a feeling of being on your own, and preparing for what you are going to have to do when you finally arrive on campus. --by Kellie Edwards After receiving their room keys and their group assignments, incoming freshmen were soon bombarded with pamphlets and booklets, --photo by William E.

For two years it hovered in the background, trapped on_ the drawing boards and caught up in a tangle of red-tape. But in the spring of 1978 the volumes of plans and blueprints finally became more. The massive plan took on a new reality and a concrete shape of its own. After two years of speculation and anxious waiting, the ground for the Whitinger College of Business was finally broken. Construction of the 5.6 million dollar building began. Each day students walking past witnessed the slow, painstaking progress. People stretched their necks and strained their eyes hoping to get a vision of what the structure would some day look like. And even in its uncompleted chaos of steel beams, cement forms and flying dust, the sprawling skeleton soon became a familiar part of the campus. For most business majors, however, the construction couldn’t have gone quickly enough. Before the opening of the new building classes were shuffled and scattered all across campus. Although some were held in North Quad, LaFollette, and Practical Arts, most of them seemed to land (with a thud) in the semi-antique, semi- dilapidated naval barracks. Mary Dale Walters, senior, described the situation as, “strange,” In a tone that immitated the ridiculousness of it, she added, “Of course, in the winter you froze your ass, and in the summer you baked. In one class I had they would open huge sliding doors and 186 Business College turn on a giant fan when it got hot. You could hear cars squealing around in the parking lot and birds would even fly in. Between all of that it was like, ‘Hey, what’s going on around here?’ ” Students weren't the only ones with complaints, though. Business instructors had the great (mis) fortune of having their offices in the building with the most termites, leaks, cracks in the walls, pealing paint, and shaky foundation on campus. Although the instructors usually managed to joke abut the 40 year-old North Hall, describing how to tame and train a termite, no one was really too sad when rumors of its soon-to-be-demolition started circulating. By the fall of 1979 those rumors were beginning to be more than just rumors. The new college’s skeleton of steel beams had been transformed into an _ expansive, modern building, and instructors Emerging as a sprawling steel skeleton,the new C.B. soon became just a part of the campus.

Although it initially took students awhile to get accustomed to the new building, according to Dr. John Hannaford, dean of the College of Business, “it wasn’t long at all before everyone was at home. It’s not hard getting used to having a pleasant place to work in.” The elaborately equipped, colorful building certainly seems to cater to both students and faculty. Some of its features include a complete fleet of typewriters, office machinery and computer terminals. Students also have their own lounge and a patio area that can be used for studying. The entire structure seems to reflect a modern and business-like atmosphere. Classrooms are decorated with giant murals; the walls are painted bright colors, and the second floor hallway is lined with murals depicting the history of the typewriter. According to Dean Hannaford, however, the biggest advantage to the building is, “finally being able to easily communicate between and among students and faculty of the different departments. Now we just have to go down the hall to see each other, instead of going clear across campus.” Business students are not the only | ones who will feel the affects the Whitinger Building, though, according to Maurice Mann, Director of Campus Planning. When the state commission of higher education gave its approval for Ball State to build the new structure, it also required the university to tear down _ its “substandard buildings” and make better use of the buildings already 188 Business College present. “Right now most of our main buildings are empty after 3 p.m. No one wants to take a four o clock or five o clock class. But in the future, when some of these smaller office buildings are torn down, well be forced into that situation. There just won't be room for everyone in the early afternoon classes,” he said. Therefore, that massive building that hovered for so long in the background and then suddenly sprang forth, has in some way affected everyone at Ball State. Certainly for the business majors its completion was a major event. The building united the scattered business departments and gave th college a complete new image and concept. However, the 5.6 million dollar cost of construction will come out of every students fees, and the redistribution of classes and the extension of more classes into the late afternoon is something: that every future schedule will reflect. The Whitinger College of Business is certainly more than just a building of bricks and beams. It is a structure built of modern efficiency, reflecting pride and representing an entire aspect of Ball State's future. --by Pam Kiser Besides the modern design and efficient use of space, the new college also features a balcony patio area, a paved forum space, benches and_ extensive landscaping. --photo by Terry Clark During the opening day for the Whitinger College of Business, crowds gathered around the building maps, and finding class rooms became a major challenge. --photo by Terry Clark SPREE Rete RE rranititetegees nnemnit Hea Gs Ra ee eee — ee eee | irene Business College 189 International Scholars Foreign students cope with changing environment Pee day the world is getting smaller. Even from Middletown, U.S.A. students are traveling to foreign lands for summer study or participating in the Ball State London Centre. The counterpart of American students abroad is the foreign student in this country. Currently, 168 international students are enrolled at Ball State University. Many are in graduate study. These students represent 57 countries and are approximately one percent of the total student population. The majority of international students come from the Middle East. Iran has 21 students, 11 are from Saudi Arabia, and 10 students are from Libya. There are nine Chinese students. Many of the international students are the only one representing their country. How does a student from a foreign land get admitted to Ball State? Basically the same as the average American. They submit transcripts from their country, send letters of recommendation, and pass an English language test. The drop-out rate is very low because better students are admitted . Grades must be above a B-and these students are generally highly motivated. Bob Fletcher is the curricular advisor for international students. Graduate students usually go right into their program of study. Kirk Robey, Director of the Ball State University International House at 215 North College said, “After being accepted to Ball State, the student arrives in Muncie to stay with a host family for about one week before classes. Host 190 International Students families provide a good transition into American culture.” Host families pick foreign students on the basis of country or interest. If the family has traveled in Kenya, then they may want to host a Kenyan student. A Muncie accountant may want an accounting major to stay with his family. “More and more foreign governments are funding the education of their students in American universities,’ said Robey. International students must prove financial stability before they are permitted into the university. Although other countries usually have universities to provide undergraduate education, graduate programs are often not adequate or nonexistent.

He worked for two years with the Ministry of Treasury in Libya before coming to Ball State to get his Masters Degree. “Although I am only required to work for the Libyian government two years for every year of study in America, I will return to my country and work there until I retire.” “The for biggest problems foreign students are adjustment, coping with the changing environment, personal and home problems--the same problems as American students, but the situation is magnified,” said the director of the International House. “Culture is the biggest problem for me--It’s completely different,” said Fawzi Toluba, another graduate accounting student from Libya. “I came to the United State because of the excellent education system.” After spending about one year studying English language at Michigan State University, Fawzi came to Ball State. “I’m enjoying the time I am_ spending here. Everyone has treated me very well, especially my instructors, advisors, and the International House.” Every spring there is an International Festival. Students make native foods from their homeland and host activities that reflect their culture. During the year there are international parties, dinners and films. This is an opportunity for American students to experience other lands without leaving the Ball State campus. Every day, as the world gets smaller it is appropriate to remember the words of Albert Schwietzer, “You don't live in a world all alone. Your brothers are here too.” --by Jeffrey C.

While many of us were home in bed sleeping until noon, 10,691 Ball State students spent half their summer waking up to the tune of the seven a.m. alarm, signaling another day of classes. “It was restless being away from home at times. I especially missed mom’s home cooked meals,” sighed Indianapolis sophomore Randy Stanley. An occasional trip to Ponderosa or Arby’s was nice but got expensive after awhile. Columbus senior Mark Clark said, “Living on a limited budget, cooking the food myself was the cheapest way to go.” To break the monotony of the summer school blues, lots of letter writing, working, T.V. watching and sightseeing was done. “Now and then we would go over and see how far the College of Business building had gone up,” laughed Patty Fierst a Jasper junior. Activities including a watermelon feed, ice cream sundaes, theatre shows, discos and musical programs helped liven up the summer sessions. --by Nyla Appleby At times during the summer the entire campus seemed deserted.

Student parents have found several solutions to ease the financial crunch of child care. For only 60 cents per hour, parents can leave their 3 to 5-year- old children at the campus day care center. The center is a non-profit organization located at 2000 Euclid St. The center is a lab school, staffed by director Ruth Ann Moore and graduate and _ undergraduate students. Approximately five students per quarter work at the center. In addition, education ma- jors and minors fulfill their par- ticipation work there before stu- dent teaching. “We run a very casual program, and it is indirectly academic,” Moore said. The center provides an environment for learning without much visual structure, she said. Parents must contract a minimum of four hours’ care daily. Children come and go all day, but there are never more than 16 at the center in a given time period, Moore said. A typical day starts with arrival at 7:45 a.m. Children play until 11 a.m. and have a snack somewhere in between those hours. At 1l a-:m. a more structured language arts period called “circle time” is held. Quiet, creative move- ment is taught and then a story is Not onlv do the day care centers take care of the kids while mom and dad are in classes, but they also teach the children how to cooperate and get along with others their own size. --photo by Tom Nemcik read to the children. Children eat lunch at noon, followed by a nap until 1:30 p.m. The rest of the day is open for free play. Students from the Elementary Education 360 class provide unstructured activities during play time, Moore said. A daily walk, as well as visits to campus buildings, are part of the children’s day. The day care center is different from a nursery school, which is more structured and condensed, containing academic programs, Moore said. “Even in a nursery school you can be very casual and do the kinds of things we do here,” Moore said, “but this becomes more of a home atmosphere.” The center seeks to provide good, high quality care and social interac- tion through a casual, yet academic approach. “It is my opinion that children ee In the university's day care center for married students’ children, the youngsters soon overcome their bashfulness and forget to be shy.

Parents work as volunteers in the Scheidler parent Co-op Program. For only $7 per quarter, parents can send their 3 to 5-year-old children to the program. In the parents-as-teachers con- cept, parents assist Director Betty Beeson two to three days per quarter. Although mothers most frequently participate, Beeson said some fathers are involved in the program. Sixteen children at a time par- ticipate in the program which meets Monday through Wednesday from 1 p.m. to3 p.m. Beeson is also the director of the 196 Married Students’ Children Language Enrichment Lab for Toddlers (LELT). Children from 24 to 36 months meet Mondays and Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 11:30 am. Children from 12 to 24 months meet Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. “It’s just a constant attempt at verbal communication,” Beeson said of LELT. Both programs are based on language, she said. “These are periods where language is essential,” Beeson said. Communication is stressed through commonplace activities, such as snacks, activities and playing. A parent is always present during the LELT sessions, Beeson said. The fee is 40 cents daily and covers the cost of the nutritious snacks served, she said. --by Beth Sharpe The incredulous grimace of Sarah Taylor is frozen as she plays outside the day care center near LaFollette Complex. --photo bs: Tom Nemcik The action of Cardinal roundball left something to be desired for adults, but children really were bored by basketball as this girl’s expression shows. --photo by: Terry Clark The Scheidler day care center is the studio for ‘Andy’, the amateur artist.

Dr. Richard Burkhardt, universi- ty provost and Dean of Faculties, was the first to resign in early February. Burkhardt first denied, but later admitted, that his resigna- tion was requested by President Jerry Anderson. “New presidents very often select their own provosts and vice presidents, so I can understand his wanting to,” said Burkhardt. Anderson said that he was asked by an administrator if he wanted each of the administration officials to submit a resignation, when he first came to the university in July of 1979. This is often done by new university presidents. Anderson said that he did not request any resignations at that time. One faculty member said he was surprised that Anderson hadn’t ask- ed for resignations earlier. “It seems as if a new president would want to work with his own people from the very beginning,” he said. Burkhardt, who came to Ball State in 1952, had served as first vice president for instructional af- fairs and as the acting president of the university for 10 months. He re- quested to return to full-time teaching and research in the history department after his resignation. Only five days after Burkhardt’s resignation, Dr. Robert Carmin asked to be relieved of his duties as Dean of the College of Science and Humanities, in order to return to full-time teaching in the depart- ment of geology and geography. 198 Resignations Carmin’s decision to resign, followng so closely on the heels of Burkhardt’s_ resignation, fueled rumors among university officials and faculty members that President Anderson was “cleaning house” in the Ad Building. Carmin was quick to deny the rumor, acknowledging that his resignation was poorly- timed but strictly voluntary. A member of the political science department said he believed that the two resignations were related and that he expected more resigna- tions to follow. The professor said, “These things usually have a domino effect.” But by spring quarter it appeared that the administrative shake-up was over. In March, Anderson named Rita Gradiol, chairperson of the department of foreign language, to act as interim provost until Burkhardt’s successor was chosen. Norman Norton, chairman of the department of biology, was named acting Dean of the College of Science and Humanities. While two “acting positions” were created by the resignations, Former university president John J. Pruis greets retir- ing board chairman Alexander Bracken during Bracken’s retirement dinner. --Public Information Photo another was being filled. After an extensive search by university of- ficials, Robert Linson, assistant vice president for Alumni and Develop- ment Programs, was chosen as vice president for University Relations, a position vacant since 1978. Then, with the beginning of the first summer session, another notice brought the resignation rage back into the news. Robert Bell, vice president for business affairs, an- nounced his resignation. According to Bell he requested to be relieved of his duties in a letter to Anderson an April 2, and he plans on return- ing to teaching after a period of leave. So, once again the ad- ministration started looking for another replacement. While most administrators and faculty members kept a close watch on the activities in the Ad Building, students were generally unaware of the situation. Most felt the same as an Indianapolis sophomore did when she said, “I really don’t care who is in charge--as long as they can take care of the parking pro-— blem.” --by Karen Terhune Three long-time university officials Richard Burkhardt, Robert Carmin and Robert Bell resigned during President Anderson's first year. Intormation Photo --Public Resignations 199 Buildings Name Game Past university officials become big names | eae its humble beginnings in 1984, then known as Eastern In- diana State Normal School, Ball State University has spanned almost a hundred years of progress in educational growth. Ball State is definitely rich in heritage. The in- stitution has seen prominence from a one-building campus in 1984, toa thriving, ever-growing university in 1980. It took the hard work, dedication, and solid determination of many people throughout the years to achieve that accomplishment. A few of these people have been so recognized for their contributions as to have classroom buildings, dor- mitory complexes and halls named in honor of them. Who are the names behind the buildings? The buildings are named for dif- ferent people for varying reasons. For instance, Ball Gymnasium, built in 1925, was given the name of the university’s namesake, the Ball family. Lucina Hall, 1927, and what is known today as the Min- netrista Center, are also both gifts from the Ball family. Past presidents of Ball State have had some campus structures named in their honor. The student center (1952) is named after Lemuel Ar- thur Pittenger, president from 1927-42. Emens Auditorium (1964) was named after John Richard Emens, 1945-68. The dormitory Wagoner Hall (1957) was named for Winfred Ethestal Wagoner, business manager and acting presi- dent from 1943-45. 200 Buildings and Names Former professors and deans have also had buildings named in their honor. Grace DeHority Halls (1960) were named for former pro- fessors, Mary Beeman, Sharley DeMotte, Barcus Tichenor and Susan Trane. Ralph Noyer Halls, which were the first coeducational residence halls on campus (1962), were named for five former deans and professors: Viletta E. Baker, May A. Klipple, Harry Howick and Paul B. Williams. Other dormitories have been nam- ed for past professors and deans: Studebaker Halls (1964) and Robert La¥ollette Residence Halls (1966), are both named after former educators of Ball State. Bracken Library was named for A.M. Bracken, former president of the Board of Trustees. Robert H. Cooper, Professor Emeritus of Biology is the man behind Cooper Science Building. The newest addition to the campus is the Ralph J. Whitinger Business Building, named in honor of the president of the Ball Foundation, and an alumnus of the university. Other buildings not mentined are also named after professors, deans, contributors, officials and others who have played very important and necessary roles in the develop- ment of Ball State. Thanks to the work of these men and women, goals were not only set but achiev- ed, making Ball State University a major institution of higher educa- tion. --by Donna Streaty-Pugh The top portion of the arch on the entrance of the L.A.

Making friends might be the most painstaking social process. The faces in the dorms and fraternities and classes, faces which take on names and traits and distinct mannerisms. We are thrown together by academic fate, forced to adjust and interact as in- dividual egos. Who can say what a “friend” might be? A friend might be a girl with a pretty smile and bewitching eyes with a high forehead and buckteeth. A friend might be a guy down the hall with incurable acne and a high voice which leans to imitation of fingernails on the blackboard. What difference does it make? A friend is someone who needs attention or that gives attention to you. It doesn’t even matter why a friend pays attention to you--it’s comradeship, know- ing you have someone to exchange ideas and feelings with, knowing you're not the only person who feels depressed or needs a hug or understanding. A friend might be someone to share identity with--to know that someone else is “like” you, the comfort of conformity, the sharing of common problems, gripes, and tastes. A friend assures you that you re not alone in this mess. We're all in this together. These pages are filled with faces, hometowns and majors--the factors of identity. These are faces of friends and strangers--or maybe friends you havent met yet.. Share yourself with someone. --by Randy Abbott When you are with some good friends, even the smallest joke, like hamming it up for a photographer, can seem hilarious. --photo by Terry Clark 202 Settling in with Friends With just some imagination, some know-how and some oversized pockets, a group of friends can manage to pull off just about anything, including smuggling in schnopps to a football game. --photo by Kim Ferrill ends 203 vith Fri Homeward Bound As the shadows start to slide across cam- pus, it becomes harder and harder to con- centrate on lectures and exams.

L; January of 1980, President Carter presented a State of the Union Address in which he made the threat of war with Russia look possible. He told Americans he wanted to have the draft reinstated--a measure that would affect the lives of American youth, from ages 18-26, and possibly both men and women. These are the ages of most college students, and the possibility of war struck fear in some students as they expressed their feelings toward the draft. Lee Anne Fisher, a Lapel senior, felt the draft was an unnecessary measure because of the use of taxpayers money: “I don’t believe that the government needs to take anymore of the taxpayers money to support a peacetime army. Of women being drafted, Fisher said it is “utterly ridiculous.’ Greenfield sophomore, Susan Phares, agrees with Fisher on women being drafted. She feels the majority of wom en arent capable of military training and fighting because of the emotional and physical effects. As for the draft in general, Phares says it’s necessary “as a last resort. At a certain point in time men should go and stand up for our country. Phares referred to the threat of communism as just that point in time. Ed O’Korn, Muncie freshman, has stronger feelings about the draft as he said “I knew I was a prime target.” O’Korn thinks the draft is unavoidable because of our current situation with Russia, and he said it is the only way to increase our military. “Enlistment is a joke really,” he said as a crisis is a sure thing to keep people away from enlisting. If drafted, O Korn said, “I wouldn't jump up and down, but I would serve.” Carmel sophomore, Lisa Hammontree, said she was currently against the draft, but if it does occur, she thinks it should include both men and women. Hammontree compared the Vietnam draft to today’s to point out the effect a draft would have on her. She didnt know anyone who was drafted before, but today, it would be her age group that would be taken first. There is a great deal of opposition to the draft and to the question of women signing up. During the Vietnam war, college students could be deferred, but today’s draft would not exempt them. Should the draft exist? Should women be sent to fight? Only time will tell if the government can justify its measures. --by Carol Burt The outside of this door in Botsford Hall expresses in strong language how many students around the country felt about the draft registration. Although Congress gave assurance that women would not be subject to combat, that did not stop the women who live in this room from posting their views on the draft. --photo by Kim Ferril «HELL IS HERE?

What was he going to do with a zoology, a tap dance, and two used poetry tex- tbooks? Many financially-struggling students try un- successfully to fight the rising costs of textbooks by selling their books back to campus bookshops. However, there are several alternatives for sell- ing as well as buying textbooks for the innovative student. Johnson Complex, along with several other hall and campus organizations, sponsor book ex- changes as a service to students. Not only do sellers get a higher price return for their books, buyers also benefit by spending less money for pre-used books. Susan Taylor, sophomore from Pine Village 242 Degree Candidates and social chairman for Klipple hall, was pleas- ed with the outcome of her hall’s book exchange. “Although we didn’t have books for every sub- ject, the response from residents was good. Buyers and sellers both got the most for their money, commented Taylor. For those Ball Staters who don’t take ad- vantage of organized book exchanges, selling on your own can be a profitable alternative. Anyone living on campus or just walking through resident halls is familiar with the hun- dreds of multi-colored paper signs posted on walls, advertising “good books at low prices” at the beginning of each quarter. For many, this is a simple and successful way to get rid of un- wanted texts. Of course, there is another method for the very economical student who cares more about saving money than earning an “A”--don’t buy any books at all. --by Jill Hess Sharon Jasper Jasper, Mathematics Mike Wiggington Indianapolis, Mathematics Joe Wiktorowicz South Bend, Public Relations Kevin Willard Muncie, Chemistry Jennifer Willems Huntington, Journalism Christina Williams Greenfield, Business Administration Linda Williams Richmond, Marketing Pamela Williams Spiceland, Photojournalism Nancy Willig Fort Wayne, Speech Pathology Linda Wilson Indianapolis, Elementary Education Michael Wilson Muncie, Radio TV Cynthia Wineland Chrisman, IL, Physical Education Cathy Winkler New Castle, Marketing Connie Winningham Muncie, Physical Education Jennifer Wittmer Jasper, Social Work Darlene Wolf Butler, Spanish John Wood Sturgis, MI, Marketing Cynthia Woods Franklin, Elementary Education Dianne Woody Thorntown, Music Area Diana Wright LaPorte, Social Work Diana Wright Greenfield, Secretarial Kathryn Wright Fort Wayne, Physical Education Jeffrey York New Castle, Physical Education Joseph York Selma, Radio TV Barbara Younkes Portage, Accounting Bernadette Zech Marion, Interior Design Karen Zilz Fort Wayne, Elementary Education Barbara Zimny Valparaiso, Radio TV Degree Candidates 243 Betty Allison Rockville, Elementary Education Karol Bailey Valparaiso, Teaching Deb Baumann Decatur, English Bonnie Belinsky Munster, Business Administration Sophomore Patriotic Propo ganda ee drew stares and support from students reading his shirt.

For the past seven months his name has been showing up in sports news, but not for his outstanding athletic abilities; Van Horn is a sports reporter and live eye sports producer for WISH-TV. It has taken Van Horn three and a half years to get where he is today. He has worked at WIFE radio as assistant sports director, at WCTV in New Castle as assistant sports director, and in sales and marketing with the Indiana Pacers. It was through the Pacers that he met Chet Coppock, WISH-TV sportscaster. After putting in a lot of hours and getting in enough people’s way, Van Horn proved his sincerity in wanting to work. He said, “I knew what I had to do,” and he did it. Because of his good relationship with the Pacers, he received a good recommendation and was able to get his foot in the door to serve his internship at channel eight, after which he stayed on to work. He summarizes his past three years saying, “Dedication is definitely the key word so far.” Van Horn has found working with Chet Coppock very enjoyable and helpful. “Chet is a very inspirational guy. He teaches me a lot about the business.” Van Horn notes Coppock’s long hours and hard work and finds “he helps me grow as a professional.” Van Horn works 40 hours a week, Thursday through Sunday, in Indianapolis. He’s found his work interferes with school, but the practical experience is worth it. He keeps late nights, and sometimes, he says, “I have to struggle to get C’s.” Although he’s found that many people are familiar with his name, the glamour of recognition does have its drawbacks: “It’s something I really enjoy, but I’ve had to give up a lot.” He isn’t able to spend as much time with family and has little time for a social life, but as Van Horn points out, “Sacrifice is part of the broadcasting game.” --by Carol Burt Elaine Hawkins Elkhart, Elementary Education Lori Heironimus Union Mills, Accounting Linda Hepp Carmel, Fashion Merchandising .

Is Benny a guy or a girl? It might not be a question to keep you awake at night but, if you’re wondering, just dial 5000 and the Campus Information Center could answer your question. Located near the hotel desk in the Student Center, the Center can answer almost any question you might have concerning Ball State or the Muncie community--no matter how trivial or unusual. One student even stopped by the desk to inquire if the duckpond was frozen. Teresa Story, Secretary to the Student Center Managers, has been instrumental in expanding the services provided by the Center. “Most of the questions we get are for general information about the university,” she said. “Calling is heaviest in the fall when frustrated freshmen are trying to find out where a particular building is.” Mitzi Jackson, a junior who works at the information desk, recalled that there were many calls from students in November when the new Whitinger Business School opened. “Some people thought that the WB on the class schedule stood for “World of Business,” said Jackson. The se rvice of the Campus Information Center isn’t limited to giving directions, however. A car pool directory, bus schedules, a lost and found service and information on university offices and organizations are also provided. So, if you’ve got a question, check with the Campus Information Center. By the way, Benny isa girl. --by Karen Terhune CAMPUS INFORMATION CENTER Seow cor ere rene weer: Although the Campus Information Center is supposed to answer student questions concerning the university, the only calls at this desk is McCall’s.

The Psychological Testing Center at Lucina extends their services to anyone that works or studies at Ball State. The counseling service is free to students, faculty, staff and their immediate families. The Center is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, with no appointment necessary. According to George Pinderis, doctoral intern from Athens, Greece, there is a variety of psychological testing available--vocational, career exploration, personality, ability, achievement, aptitude, and interest, to name a few. The modern facilities include computer terminals that provide an efficient means of personalized feedback to confused or interested individuals. A group of trained personnel guide and counsel the individuals. Most of the counselors are college-educated-- some with Ph.D.’s, Ed.D.’s and others being doctoral interns, or psychology graduates. Pinderis stresses that each staff member must be a “caring” individual in order to fulfill a career in counseling psychology. “We have to be ‘caring people’ to be on call 24-hours a day,” said Pinderis. Besides setting up a regular weekly schedule for their clients, the co unselors are “on call” around-the-clock, in case of a crisis or emergency. The counselors will arrange to meet with their clients at the convenience of the person in need. The outside of Lucina Hall is the epitome of turn of A large number of students take advantage of the the century architecture, complete with shrunken available assistance offered at the Psychological Testing stone heads. The Psychological Testing Center is Center. The problems and matters discussed with the ecated in the building which housed students for counselors are strictly confidential. Pinderis said that several yet pie ee “rape, psychosomatic disorders, and __ suicidal conversations are not rare,” but even minor personality concerns are dealt with accordingly. Problems are approached on a totally individual basis. Different types of therapy are used in each unique case. Hypnosis, biofeedback, and other classical approaches are applied. No matter what the problem, whether it be quite serious or of minor concern, the Psychological Testing Center is there when it counts. --by Mindy Pesch 256 Sophomores Mark Knapp Arcadia.

Not always. Vending machines are almost as dependable as a Las Vegas slot machine. You may hope for cherries and end up with lemons. That is the risk that you must take when gambling on the unknown. You don’t always get what you an- ticipate. Some accuse vending machines of being a big “rip-off.” Carolyn Stahl, Brownstown junior, said, “Whenever I try to get a Coke, I never know whether the paper cup will drop in place before or after the beverage itself does. Most of the time I end up with half of a glass of Coke, and sticky fingers.” “It’s kind of risky, but I guess I enjoy the challenge,” said Cindy Koors, Marion senior. “Will I get my change back, or will I get something free. . It’s a kind of game.” The vending machine game is played by many college students, particularly because of its con- venience and variety of selection. The strategic location of such “appetite-arousing automation” makes it difficult to resist the temptation while passing-by. The machines are set up in practical- ly every dorm on campus, and in th e corridor of each building, making it almost impossible to avoid some kind of contact with the “vicious vender.” They lure trusting individuals by flashing deceivingly appealing packages that are only a push-of-a-button, or a mere flip-of-a- switch away. Although some have had negative experiences with vending machines, there are others that de- pend on the pre-packaged treat as a source of nutrition. Bill Langdon, Plymouth senior, said, “T enjoy the convenience of having quick energy Gambling for Goodies Alohna Warren Oakland City, Music Area Kurt Wiebe Arlington Heights, IL, Marketing Lois Wiley Portland, Elementary Education Kimberly Wright Muncie, omputer Science Kristal Yankie Greenfield, OH, Acturial Science foods on hand. A cold, crisp apple really gives me a boost on a busy afternoon.” Vending machines typically used to stock junk foods such as; candy bars, pasteries, gum, and other sugary impulse items. With the rising con- cern about proper nutrition, vending machines have added other, more vitamin-enriched food products, like; fresh fruits and juices, hot soup, and even hearty sandwiches. Whatever your craving, there is probably something in the machine that tames your growling hunger pangs. At least you will “feel” full. That is not to say you will be satisfied. No matter how much you try to resist, it is difficult to avoid the all-American vending machine habit. --by Mindy Pesch Late at night, long after everyone else in Williams Hall has gone to bed, Jim Keene boldly approaches the ven- ding machines and goes one on one with chance. --photo by Tom Nemcik Sophomores 259 Jeff Albrecht Richmond, Radio TV Wayne Alstott Corydon, Mathematics Kenny Amberger Batesville, Business Chris Andorfer : Fort Wayne, Retail Managing Andrew Armstrong Marion, Computer Science Ki m Baade Fort Wayne, Business Management Steve Babiak North Olmsted, OH, Undecided Donald Baechle Jr. Batesville, Marketing Judith Banks Bettendorf, IA, Biology Karla Barnes Columbia City, Physical ucation Phillip Barrick Nappanee, Computer Science Karen Bauer Jasper, Mathematics Victor Beal Dunkirk, Physics Debbie Beaver Mooresville, Accounting Gail Beeker Traverse City, Special Education Dawn Benedict Winchester, Accounting Doris Berthoud Indianapolis, Fashion Coordinating Brad Best Merrillville, Marketing Robin Bingham Bunker Hill, Nursing Cathy Black South Bend, Nursing Patrick Black Muncie, Undecided Amy Blann Cambridge City, Elementary Education Anne Bock Anderson, Elementary Education Patricia Bojezuk Highland, Music Education Karen Boles Indianapolis, Fashion Merchandising Christina Boltin Lands End, Business Education Yowanda Bowers Elk Grove, IL, Business Katherine Boyden Allison Park.

But, it isn’t until we are not available that our work is really notic- A Select Few Just when many Ball State students are settl- ing down to watch Johnny Carson, and when some are popping corn in their dorm rooms, and others are leisuresly enjoying a hot shower before they climb into their warm, cozy beds, a select few are just starting their day at 11 p.m. These “little elves” are busy preparing and cleaning, campus-wide, until the sun rises. When the sleepy-eyed students arrive for their 8 a.m. classes, the buildings are magically spotless. The job of a janitor is one that is frequently taken for granted. When asked if she thinks janitors at Ball State do a good job, Dunkirk senior, Lisa Hatch said, “I haven’t really notic- ed.” Janitors themselves may go unnoticed, but their work is not totally unappreciated. Many students take pride in the outward ap- pearance of their university. The physical upkeep of the grounds implies certain images of the overall campus itself. The cleanliness of the buildings says a lot about how much the students value a favorable impression of the campus by outside critics. Janitors take pride in the work they do at Ball State. Many are perfectionists. One janitor at the English Building said, “My job is rewarding, because I enjoy physical labor. I don’t mind working at night because it is so peaceful.” Another long-time Ball State employee at the Arts Building said, “I know we are indirectly ap- Lisa Pence Shelbyville, Undecided Pamela Pickett Westfield, Elementary Education Chris Pierson Kendallville, Administration Tom Pingel West Allis, WA, Business ucation Charles Pipher Kildeer, IL, Marketing Carolyn Pittman Merrillville, Accounting Greg Plummer Anderson, Accounting Rhonda Poe Greenfield, Photojournalism Donna Powell Elk Grove Village, IL, Social Work Martha Prevost Indianapolis, Elementary Education Business 268 Freshman ed.” Janitorial work may be taken for granted, until they cannot make it into work for some un- controllable reason. The accumulation of clut- ter, and the scattering of all sorts of trash takes away from the aesthetics of the environment. Students complain about junk-filled halls and begin to appreciate the ruthless and unending job of a janitor. A janitor’s work is never easy, either. The tasks they face daily are quite challenging and varied. According to Pam Henson, Lawrenceburg senior, “Janitors have been very helpful during my four years at Ball State.” Henson was referr- ing to a particular incident that involved dropp- ing her keys down an elevator shaft. Panic- stricken, she turned to one female custodian for assistance. The janitor came to the rescue and retrieved the long, lost key chain from the dungeon. Another student said she had a lot of respect for the custodians in her dormitory. The student developed a friendship with one of the custo- dians that brought her clean sheets weekly. The janitor agreed to water the student’s plants dur- ing break as a personal favor. Many students appreciate the role the janitor plays at Ball State. The custodians are parent- like figures, housekeepers and even friends. The custodian is a special kind of person that keeps Ball State going with their hard work and plea- sant attitudes toward the students and faculty. --by Mindy Pesch Duane Rader Lebanon; Visual Communications Anne Ramos Gaty, Fashion Merchandising Howard Rangmeister DeMotte, Business Sharon Reeves Lebanon, Computer Science Lynn Reiley Marion, Biology Beth Rider Kokomo, Journalism Jamie Riley Elkhart, Speech Judy Roberson Peru, Physical Education Connie Robinson Connersville, Secondary Education Bill Rollison Indianapolis, Visual Communications Randy Roth Columbia City, Business Nancy Roy North Judson, Elementary Education Lana Ryan Pendleton, Journalism Teresa Savage Pendleton, Physical Education Theresa Savage Indianapolis, Deaf Education Debra Schmidt Union City, Marketing Tamara Schmitz Indianapolis, Dietetics Donna Schulze Oxford, Finance Janet Schur South Bend, Accounting Ernest Scott Clarksville, Radio TV Linda Shay Hobart, Music Education Mary Kay Sheerin Indianapolis, Nursing Stuart Sheppard Rushville, Marketing James Shupe Yess Fort Wayne, Pre-Dental De R.

Last year there were only a handful of MAC and IAIAW records broken. But this year, thanks to the ef- forts of many determined individuals, at best 75 records were broken in the quest for individual or team recognition. Records were broken in almost every sport, some even in men’s swimming, though the team posted a mere 1-13 record. Women also were highly conscious of records as they accounted for more than half.of the records broken. Termed as a rebuilding year by many, there are still those names that stick out foremost in the minds of students throughout campus. Such names as Mark Bor- nholdt, the powerful sophomore fullback, who was Working Out sandwiched between two all-americans, Charles White (Heismann Trophy Winner) and Billy Sims. Bornholdt finished out the season with 19 touchdowns and a new school record. He is only an example of the people whom you will read about on the pages to follow.

This season the team captured only experience finishing 4-4 in the conference and 6-5 overall. The squad, which was picked to win the MAC again this year despite returning only 11 starters from last year’s 10-1 club, suffered ‘their first defeat at the hands of Miami 27-3. This 24 point bulge represented the greatest MAC losing margin in three seasons for the Cardinals. This game also represented Ball State’s _ first opening day failure since joining the MAC in 1975. Ball State, to this point, had won 40 of their last 51 games and 21 of 26 conference tilts. “We played a fine football team at Oxford,” observed Dwight Wallace, the second-year mentor for the Cards. Of the loss Wallace stated, “I don’t feel it’s the end of the world, but it certainly brings us back to reality and hopefully to the realization of the amount of work yet to be done.” The not-ready-for-their-prime- time Cards began to look for some light at the end of their defensive tunnel. But alas, a night game at Toledo. Darkness befell the Cards once again for another highly touted ballclub, Toledo, was also looking for their first dent in the winners column. Toledo took that contest, setting the Cards back to a 31-14 loss and an 0-2 record in as many outings. “The turnovers killed us,” Coach Ted Gill emphasized. “We were forced to keep the defense on the field for too long,” he continued. The Cards suffered a great loss in quarter-back-punter-kicker Mark O’Connell, who was injured in the contest against Toledo. The few bright spots came with the defensive prowess of Kelly George, a freshman out of Fort Wayne, who played tenaciously at his outside linebacker position. Offensively, Tom Broderick and freshman Stevie Nelson were outstanding. In that contest, Nelson set a new record for kickoff returns with 157 yards in four attempts. That 0-2 start for the Redbirds was the first since 1973. “Our players were very disappointed with the loss, but I’m certain they'll fight back in the face of adversity,” The Cardinals first vear kicker Dane Fellmeth (3) boots the opening kick-off against Central Michigan.

Fight back they did, as the Cardinals defeated Kent State by a score of 35-10. Unleashing an incredible rushing game, the Cards ran the pigskin 72 out of 79 offensive plays for 369 yards. Sophomore fullback Mark Bornholdt scored three times for the Cards in that contest. The home gridiron schedule opened with three consecutive non- conference tilts. The first was against far-away foe Southeastern Louisiana, whom the Cards defeated 17-7 in front of 16,813 ecstatic fans at Ball State Stadium. Wallace’s main concern was the sporadic play of the offense. “We were disappointed in our offensive line play and the number of penalties that stalled potentially good drives,” explained Wallace. Their next opponent was Indiana State at I.S.U. The squad headed for Terre Haute with a record of 2- 2, and the Sycamores waited, tauting a record of five wins and no losses. The Sycamores defeated the Cardinals 18-13 in a very tough game. A dissappointing game turnover- wise, the offense fumbled the ball two times inside Indiana State’s 20 yard line. They also missed on three field goal attempts between 30 and 40 yards. The team also had an incredible 574 yards total offense and 27 first downs, this, compared to the hosts 342 yards and just nine first downs. But, the Sycamores had five big plays in the BSU secondary that crushed the Cards chances at a comeback. Dave Wilson, senior quarterback for the Cardinals, received the Mid- American Conference Offensive Player of the Week for his performance in that contest. Wilson hit on eight of 18 for 190 yards and rushed 38 yards for that honor. Barnholdt had Ball State’s two scoring marks increasing his touchdowns to six after five games. Also in that contest, Ball State realized a new running threat with Mark Warlaumont, a freshman from West Carrolton, Ohio, who tallied 104 yards on the evening. In the very next contest, Warlaumont gained 145 yards and Barnholdt had three TD’s to lead the Cardinal squad to a 42-14 Homecoming slaying of Illinois State in front of 18,136 fans.

Mark Warlaumont °also had a good day with 113 yards in 19 carries. Eastern Michigan jumped out to a 10-7 halftime lead in the final game of a four game homestand by the gridiron football squad. But with a steady balanced attack of passing and running the Cards were not to be denied, as Wilson set up the scores with precision passing, hitting on 11 passes for 166 yards. The pounding backfield pair of Barnholdt and Waraumount shared the scoring honors against the Hurons, each capturing two six point tallies. The freshman tailback had another century mark game, gaining 109 yards. And _ the sophomore fullback raised his point total to 96, breaking a BSU record set by Fred Kehoe 30 years ago. The Cards defeated Eastern Michigan 28-10. “Craig Newburg was outstanding at nose with 11 tackles, and Jim Casey came off the bench to intercept one pass and break up two others,” stated Wallace. “We had our most consistent day at the linebacker positions from both Bill Pindras and _ Brady Hoke,” emphasized Chris Allen, defensive coordinator. “Duboris Dickerson, Rick Bostater and Gary Reese all put in one of their better performances of the season,” exclaimed Coach Wallace. The second half showed the coaching staff the consistency (from the entire squad) they had been looking for all season. The final road game on BSU’s 1979 schedule was on November 10 at Western Michigan. The Cards returned to Muncie a_ tired, dejected football club, as they were | defeated in Kalamazoo, 20-10. Ball State’s lone touchdown came on a pass from Wilson to Clary. Wilson was again hot as he connected on 10 of 20 passes for 159 yards. “A winning season and an upperdivision finish in the conference will be riding on this game,” noted Wallace before the final home game against Northern Illinois. The BSU_ gridiron specialist totally dominated the visiting Huskies by pounding them in the first half with 42 unanswered points. That was all that was needed as the final score was 42-0. Scoring for the team was evenly distributed as Barnholdt chalked up three more TD’s to total 114 points for the season and tying a MAC record. He also finished second in the nation in scoring behind Billy Sims of Oklahoma and _ four touchdowns in front of Heismann trophy winner Charles White of Southern _— California. The remaini ng scores came _ from Warlaumont, Clary and Ray Hinton. Nelson finished out his first collegiate year of football with the number one spot in the nation averaging 31.7 yards per kickoff return. “The entire team _ played superbly,” elated head coach Dwight Wallace. “As a team 29 66 everything clicked.” “The coaching staff, and I are very pleased with the overall performance of every player,” he added. The seniors were perhaps the nucleus of the team, giving the support needed for a balanced team of young players. Graduating from the squad will be 17 seniors, only seven of whom were full-time starters. Other than those seven, Ball State started six freshmen, four sophomores and seven juniors. Taking honors for themselves were players who were all Although Jim Pritchard (96) and the defensive line deserving of them. Five players were placed on the Mid-American Conference teams: Rush Brown, first team defense, Jon Hoke, second team defense, Tom Broderick, Dave Wilson, Tim Clary, second team offense. About the team next year, O’Connell, who was red-shirted due to an injury received earlier in the year at the quarterback position, stated, “We have something to prove to ourselves and the league. We will come back.” “This year was a profitable one in the Ball State football program. We have a lot of young players who developed greatly this year and hopefully will guide us next year,” observed Wallace. Indeed, a team to be watched, a team of the future.--by Matthew J.

Also competing in the November 8 opener for the Cards was a contingency of Indiana-Kentucky women’s team All-Stars who competed against the women’s team of Korea. The performance of Cardinal gymnasts wasnt enough as the Koreans dazzled the crowd in every event with their stand-out events being the vault and pommel horse. Ball State gave their best performance on the floor exercise as they registered an even 43.0 to the Koreans 44.8. Russell Warfield, ao Ge freshman, turned in the top score for Ball State in the floor exercise with an 8.8 mark. “Russell Warfield has _ great expression and _ flexibility,” said Myung-Sup-Rim, coach of the Korean National Team. On the rings for B.S.U. was Wayne Graziano, who chalked up the highest score of the evening, including the Koreans, by posting a 9.35 mark. For the Cards on the pommel horse was Willie Collins who came through with an 8.6 out of 10 possible points. Although the Koreans showed Ball State how to dismount from the high bar, an_ impressive performance was turned in by Scott Cazel with an 8.65 tally. Coach Paul Mayer was very pleased with the turn out of the crowd. “We didn’t expect quite this many people,” Mayer said. “We're simply awed!” An other standout performance was Hoony Sunu of Ball State who took firsts for the Cards in both the vault and the parallel bars, placing marks of 9.3 and 8.2 respectively. The final score for the women was 184.70 to 173.05 in favor of the Korean Nationals Team. For the men it was Ball State 246.35 while the Korean men’s team tallied 268.40. At the start of the event, a traditional gift exchange took place and all of the Korean gymnasts were given honorary Ball State “B” letters.

The cross-country team, despite some fine outstanding perform- ances, finished the season with only one win in dual meet competition and a disappointing eighth in the Mid-American Conference meet. They’re only win came against a young, but highly regarded Northern Illinois team early in the season. Ball State runners finished second through seventh in that meet to give the Cards a 20 to 40 win. Mick Schlachter, a senior, led Ball State across the line in second place. Schlachter’s time for the six mile race was 29:49. Schlachter was followed across by four Cards’ runners who tied the next four spots. John Terrio, a senior, Dennis Kijowski, a sophomore, Kelley Marsh, a junior and Dave Kemps, a senior, all finished in 30:57. Mike Brockert was next across the line in 31:27. That gave Ball State six finishers in a row, even though only five count for the team score. However, as a team, that was about all that the team could be happy about. The team lost to Western Michigan, 27 to 28, Bowling Green, 27 to 29, Eastern Individually Mick Schlachter never finished worse than second in a dual meet as he qualified for the regionals by winning the conference meet. Schlachter beat Brian Pownall of Miami to win the MAC by a mere 50 yards in the 10 kilometer race. Schlachter’s time was 31:03. That win sent Schlachter to East Lansing, Michigan, for the District Four Championship on November 10. At the Districts, Schlachter ran a good race, but just missed finishing high enough to qualify for the national. Schlachter finished 14th, but was the sixth finisher not on a team to qualify for the nationals. Only the top _ five individual finishers go to the nationals. Schalchter missed by just five seconds of getting a bid to the national finals. Coach Steve Cooksey was disappointed through most of the season.

Assistant coach Craig Sherman said the team is going to have to pull together for the future if they expect to improve. “We're going to have to forget this year and sit down and set some goals for track for the future.

They then handed St. Francis a 3-0 losing — decision, making their record two wins, no losses, to that point. Then the tables turned, as the team was halted on their path to victory by a strong Ohio State squad, 2-1. Their record was then evened at 2-2 by virture of a Denison College defeat of the Cards, 2-1, on a last minute goal. Ball State hit another snag as they fell to MAC opponent, Miami University by the tally of 3- Fr. The squad bounced back to four straight victories to increase their standing to 6-3. The onslaught began with Toledo University, as they fell to the now rolling offense attack of the Cards, 5-1. The string continued with the defense taking center stage, as they held high-scoring Wright State to only one goal. The offense took the hint and, led by Greg Ruark and Raphael Gardiner, tallied four goals to make the final score 4-1. The team then defeated Illinois State, 3-1. Their next opponent, Grace College, was the second shutout of the season for senior goalie and co-Most Valuable Player, Alan Chalem. The cardinal and white squad won that field battle, 4-0. The Cards slackened their hold on the reigns of victory, as the Huskies of Northern Illinois University ran by the Cardinals, 3- l, Once again the Staters held them to a two point defe sive effort and defeated Indiana Tech, 6-2, with the best showing of the season for the offensive unit. The second-to-last game of the season pitted the Falcons of Bowling Green State University (6- 4) against an identical record Cardinal squad (6-4). It was a game of coincidences as neither team increased their won-loss records, as they kicked their way to a 2-2 deadlock.

For the previous two years, they competed as a club. “I have to admit, I was a bit disappointed that more girls didn’t come out and, of those that did, that more didn’t stick with it. In our last meet, we had one competitor,” said Sharon Burgess, the cross country coach. But that is not as bad as it sounds, considering the team total was five. Burgess’s goal for the cross country season was to have a full squad that would compete in all the meets and improve their times. “In a club, the runners can train on their own,” Burgess said. “A team is more structured. I guess this had something to do with the turnout.” Morning runs started at 6 a.m. and were followed by weight lifting. In the afternoon, they met again to run intervals and long distances. One bright spot in the season was Karen Beekman, Burgess said. “She’s promising. Due to a previous | injury, she couldn’t compete in the | first few meets. Then she was given permission by the trainer to run again. She worked and ran hard for us. She was our strongest, most consistent runner,” the coach said. Two other dedicated runners were Denise Hartmire and Renee Woods. They fulfilled personal goals; Denise showed promise in the shorter distances while Renee possessed the endurance for the road races, Burgess said. The person the runners looked up to was captain Julie Stimm. “Julie was really a rock,” Burgess said. “She held the team together. She was a steady runner.” The high point of the season for the team was the Eagle Creek meet. The team received the second place trophy, which is excellent considering the winning team was all men and the third place team was co-ed. Burgess said her hopes for next year are to have a full team and to compete in all the intercollegiate races as a full squad. --by Lisa Wetzel CROSS COUNTRY TEAM.

The - players are recognized around campus. But, what about the people who prepare the players or athletes for the game ? The managers and trainers. Often overlooked and taken for granted, the managers and trainers do their part for the teams at Ball State. One example of a manager is Richard Irwin, a sophomore from Peru. Heisin his fourth year asa manager and in his second year as a manager at Ball State. Irwin is a manager in the basketball segment of the Men’s Athletic program. There are many managers in both men’s and womens sports, ranging from volleyball to track and wrestling to badminton. Irwin.began his managing career in high school. “I liked it a lot in high school, so [ thought Id try it in college,” explained Irwin. The idea behind managers is two-fold. One is to make it so the Behind the Games staff doesnt have to worry aboput anything. Two, is to make it so the players don't have to Worry about anything, so they can concentrate on the game or the match. “We also see to the needs of both the coaches and the players,” said Irwin. “Were basically the caretakers for the coaches and the athletes. We make sure that everything (basketballs. water, uniforms, the court swept, baskets up, keeping shooting stats, and even video taping the home games) is ready for the practices and the games,” stated Irwin. The managers begin practice with the teams in post-season practice and stay with it until the season is officially over. For the basketball managers, of Which there are four, they must attend practice basically everyday from 2:30 to 5:30. They all must also attend every home game. What is the rapport between the basketball plavers and the managers? “We joke with them in coaching the locker rooms and on the court during practice, but that’s the extent of it. It’s kinda like a job- type relationship,” pointed out Irwin. What about the relationship between the coaching staff and the managers ? “The coaches seem like they really care about our lives, just-- vou know, how things are in school, at home, just things in general, emphasized Irwin. There are other types. of managers at Ball State. There are the managers of the equipment room in University Gym. They re responsible for keeping uniforms clean and in shape. They also handle equipment for many different sports happening at U. Gym, everything from volleyballs to archery bows and arrows. Unlike the managers, the trainers at B.S.U. are working toward a minor in the field of athletic training. Trainers must work a minimum of 800 hours in a training capacity. That minimum is set down by the National Athletic Traniers Association (NATA) which oversees and regulates trainers throughout the country. Trainers begin on-the-job training their first day on the job. But, they must take classes toward this minor just as everyone else must toward any other minor. Some of the courses they must take are: Physiology, Anatomy, Fundamentals of Athletic Training, and among others, Modalities, which is the study of different types of treatments for various injuries. Another difference between the managers and trainers is that the managers receive school athletic awards (i.e. letter jackets, blankets, etc.), whereas the trainers are working toward a satisfactory job, in their field, after graduation. Still, they both do their best to help the athletes get the glory on the teams of Ball State University. --by Matthew J.

Elevator Season An up and down season was the best way to describe the 1979 women’s volleyball team. The Cards ranked high with wins at the Hoosier Classic and East Michigan Invitational and third in the Ball State Tournament and second at the University of Cincinnati. The Cards played outstanding volleyball at Bloomington to defeat Indiana, and at Southern Illinois they won the Indiana tournament. At Cincinnati the Cards defeated a tough Pittsburgh team in the semi-finals and only had to defeat Wright State, a team they had beaten three times, to win the tournament. However, the inconsistency that had plagued the team throughout the year struck again and the best the Cards could do was place second as they lost in the finals. In their own tournament, the Cards finished second in their pool to qualify for the semi-finals. The opponent was their long-time rival IU. In the first game of the match, BSU, playing superb defense, broke on top early. IU hung on and started to come back. Dana McVicker, kept the Cards even with fine net play, but in the end the Hoosiers prevailed, 16-14. In the second game it was all Indiana as as IU destroyed the Cards 15-l,to qualify for the finals. In the finals the Hoosiers overcame a two-game deficit to win, 8-15, 5-15, 15-10, 15-12 and 17-15. Coach Barb Curcio was disappointed after the team’s loss in the semi-finals, but was happy with her team for the most part. “We played well in the first game against Indiana. The Indiana game itself is always a hard-fought Despite some early set backs, the girls stuck together. As in most sports, teamwork and the desire to win were important factors. --photo by William E.

I saw some good individual efforts out there though,” Curcio said. When state tournament time came around the Cards carried a 19-12 record. The Cards opened by beating Indiana State, 12-15, 15- 17, 15-8 and 15-9. Curcio however wasn't happy. “I wasn’t pleased with our performance against Indiana State,” Curcio said. In the second round the Cards faced favorite Purdue. The Cards started fast, destroying the Boilermakers 15-2, and had a 14-11 lead in game two before losing, 16- 14, That turned the match around according to Curcio. Purdue won 15-8, 15-4 in the final two games. “Failing to put Purdue away in the second game was the turning point of the match,” Curcio said. “If we'd been able to hang on, the outcome might have been different,” she added.

Purdue took the match and the state title, 15-11, 15-10 and 15-8. “We were tired after the IU match,” explained Curcio. “I was very pleased with the play of our three seniors, Bentoski, McVicker and McClurg,” Curcio added. “Terese Bentoski and Dana McVicker did an adequate job as co-captains. We're looking forward to néxt year. We have to fill the middle-blocking positions. We were a young team and we had more than six starters all year. Sandy Smith, Jenny Courtney and Deb Wehman are going to have to give us some leadership next year.” Curcio said. --by Kyle Kreiger Bo Gee 298 Men’s Swimming Men’s Swimming Won 1 Lost 13 BSU OPP Central Michigan 42 7A Western Illinois 44 68 Purdue 50 63 Eastern Illinois 44 62 Toledo 56 57 Indiana State 46 67 Bradley 47 66 Western Michigan 52 61 Ohio 52 61 Bowling Green 33 80 Marshall 38 75 Miami 54 59 Eastern Michigan 32 80 Northern IIlinois 81 32 MAC Championships 8th of 10 teams This Cardinal swimmer is nearing the finish in the 4 X 100 yard relay.

Even though they had a “losing” season, they still produced eight in- dividual varsity records, one relay record, and one pool record. First year coach Laura Seibold, fresh from a year of coaching div- ing at the University of Virginia, began the season with a goal of “every individual reaching her maximum potential.” “My goal was met,” said Seibold. “The majority of the kids reached their lifetime bests and we con- tinually broke university and varsi- ty records.” The best all-around swimmer this season was freshman Shelli Fullhart from Muncie, who scored the most points in dual meets, the state invitational, and at the MAIAW regionals combined. Among her many achievements this year, Fullhart broke the 200 in- dividual medley varsity record against Purdue, with a time of 2:21.5. And at regionals she reach- ed her lifetime best in every event she entered. The Cardsharks had two valuable co-captains who demonstrated both leadership and skill throughout the season. Indianapolis senior Julie Cap- pello broke the University Pool record in the 50 back stroke with a time of :29.438, while swimming against Central Michigan. Cap- pello holds one individual and three relay records from last year. Muncie senior Lori Koger broke the 50 fly record at the MAIAW Regionals with a time of :27.68 and placed third. Koger was the most outstanding swimmer at regionals. Koger was also involved in the 800 free style relay record this year. Last year she had one individual and two relay records. Merrillville diving freshman Liz Price was a big asset to the team. Said to be the “best diver BSU has ever had,” Price set three records in her first year of competition. She scored a 246.9 in the one-meter (six dives) against Bowling Green, home of some national divers; a 418.63 in the one-meter (11 dives) against Purdue University; and a 337.15 in the three-meter (11 dives) in the state invitational. Price was the first BSU diver ever to go to regionals in diving. She placed eighth in both the one and three- meter diving. LaPorte freshman Cindy Beck was one of the top three high scor- ing swimmers along with Cappello and Fullhart. Although she did not break any varsity records, she did swim her lifetime best in all of her backstroke events, accumulating numerous first and second places. She will be a major asset to the team next year with Cappello graduating. The other record holder was In- dianapolis sophomore Donna Kelley who broke three varsity records in the three longest in- dividual races. She now holds the 500 free record (5:31.114) broken against Purdue; the 1,000 free record (11:32.576), beating the previous record by 20 seconds against Central Michigan; and the 1650 free (19:21.474) at the state invitational. Preparing to up her score is Allison Walters, as she competes in the diving segment of a meet. --photo by Terry Clark Water in the eye is something Ball State swimmer Liz Price has to put up with constantly. --photo by Terry Clark The state invitational was a big win for the Cardsharks as they beat second place rival Indiana State University 836-635. Other teams in- volved were Valparaiso (400), DePauw (222), and Evansville (213). MAIAW Regionals brought a sixth place finish, ahead of ISU, out of 14 competing teams. Ten swim- mers and one diver qualified for regionals and tested their skills to the fullest. The 200 relay team of Cappello, Susan Klinger, Sharon Welklin, and Danita Fox placed se- cond overall with a season best time eee Seeae : i, PBLV'SITORS| ee of 1:42.02. Seibold was “pleased with the times because of many of the swim- mers swam their best times of the season and a few even swam their lifetime bests.” Though the final season ended at 4-8-1, Seibold is looking ahead to next year to be an even stronger year. As a sign in the women’s locker room says, “You can if you think you can.” The Cardsharks thought they could and they did. --by Julie Widdifield Women’s Swimming 301 An unidentified Cardinal grappler puts the old cross- face hold on this visiting Toledo wrestler. --photo by Terry Clark Missing Mat MA¢ Waiting for the referee's signal is Russell Toliver, In- dianapolis freshman. --photo by Terry Clark 302 Wrestling After finishing second in the Mid-American Conference last season,Coach Pete Samuels and the Ball State Wrestling Team entered the 1979-1980 season with high hopes. An inexperienced team, led by captain Brian Thomas, compiled an impressive 12-6-1 dual meet record. This established a new dual meet record for most wins in a season. The wrestlers also did well in tournament competition by placing runner-up in the Kent State Invita- tional and capturing first place at the Miami Open Invitational. Coach Samuels continued his belief in wrestling the best competi- tion by scheduling the Cards with a week long journey to the West coast. The team posted a 2-3 record while on the California trip, but Samuels was very optimistic. “I feel it helps our program to wrestle on a nationwide basis and go up against some superteams. It gives us national recognition; it’s good for recruitment and it helps —— our wrestlers improve. It’s also a lot of fun,” said Samuels. But despite such preparation and outstanding wrestling, the Cards had to settle for fourth place in the MAC which was hosted by Ball State. Kent State won the con- ference capturing its fourth straight title. Ball State did, however, qualify two fine wrestlers for the NCAA Championships. Thomas and Craig Newburg competed at Corvallis, Oregon on March 13-15. For Thomas, it was a great season. Thomas topped off his senior year by winning his second MAC championship. After qualify- ing for his third consecutive trip to the Nationals, Thomas posted a season record of 24-5. This made his career record 71-30, tying him for second place with Carl Evans on the Cardinal most career wins list. Thomas plans on using his ex- perience to help coach next year’s team. After falling just short of All- American status, second year grap- iw ey es... a D be Sty pler Newburg has future goals of MAC and national championships. Newburg matched last year’s achievements by finishing runner- up in the MAC heavyweight divi- sion. He placed first in the Miami Open which enabled him to com- plete the season with an outstan- ding record of 25-5, and an incredi- ble 12 pins. The young Cards look forward to next year. Returning along with Newburg are “the _ babies,” freshmen Scott Leasure and Steve Babyak from Cleveland, Ohio. Leasure completed the season at 20- 7-1 while his roommate, Babyak compiled a record of 21-6. According to Samuels, Leasure and Babyak “are probably the two best freshmen ever to wrestle for Ball State.” Both Leasure and cea bet Another pin is registered for senior Brian Thomas. Thomas made yet another trip to the NCAA Cham- pionships last year. --photo by F.A. Phillips Jr, Babyak took first place in the Miami Open and finished third and fourth in the MAC respectively. Other outstanding freshmen in- clude Yorktown’s Ron Baker and Indianapolis Gerald Fowlkes. Baker placed first at the Indiana State Invitational. Don Mappes, Dave Delong and Ron Meade, along with other retur- ning letter-men will bolster the Cardinal efforts next season. If Ball State can continue this at- titude of winning, along with another recruiting year, the Cards will bring home their first MAC team title. I should know.

The Cards lost the game 79-78 in overtime. --photo by Terry Clark Dia you ever get the feeling the season wasn't going to be quite the way you expected it? Perhaps the feeling was known only too well to third-year head basketball coach Steve Yoder, who found out in mid-November, before the season even began, that he was losing perhaps his best offensive punch. This key player was Mike Drews, a 64” junior out of Danville, II- linois. Drews was forced into en- ding his inter-collegiate basketball career with a heart ailment. It is of- ficially termed a hear murmur, and diagnosed as being more prominent that before. Drews _ background looks something like this. He was Ball State’s leading scorer his freshman and sophomore years, with scoring means of 12.5 and 16.2 points per game, respectively. “We're going to miss him playing very much, but not nearly as much as Mike will miss the competition,” emphasized Yoder. But the game must go on. . .and so it did. Ball State’s hardwood (basketball) contingent posted a 14- 15 overall record and wound up the | regular season in a fiveway tie for — fourth place with a MAC mark of 7-9. This year there was a new twist to the MAC, a post-season tourna- ment involving the top seven teams. The Cards advanced to Ann Ar- bor, Michigan, after a 73-71 close game victory at Kent State in the | first round of the tournament. In the semi-finals the team had | the misfortune of meeting MAC | champ and tournament favored | Toledo. The roundballers either — stayed with, or caught back up to, | the Rockets but were eventual losers 91-83. The Cards then drop- ped the consolation game 71-58 to the Huskies of Northern Illinois. The Cards had 10 games within two points each; with four of them being losses. The B-Ball squad also thrilled the home fans with three overtime games, winning two of them. Perhaps Ball State’s toughest opponent was the Bowling Green Falcons as the Cards dropped the MAC opener to them 80-79 and then lost to them again in Universi- ty Gym, in overtime, 79-78.

With George Bradley and transfer John Williams at the for- ward positions, Dwayne “Pete” Ir- vin, the only senior on the squad this year, and two-year sub, Jeff Williams at the guard spots, the on- ly apparent vacancy was left by Boarden at center. Possibilities for the position were 7 sophomore Jeff Parker, 6710” freshman Mark Jahns and 676” junior Clement “C.E.” Murrell. Winning the center pivot spot was Murrell. He handled the chores of center superbly for the first few games until a secret weapon was discovered on the bench. Al Gooden, a 6’5” junior, was the second player to shake up the Car- dinal line-up as he came off the bench mid-way through the season to lead the team in scoring with 22 points against Eastern Michigan. Gooden performed excellently throughout the remainder of the season, scoring a career high 29 points against Toledo in the MAC tourney. This was tremendous con- sidering he only played 25 minutes and averaged 1.3 points per game in 78-79. He finished the season se- cond in scoring with 12.5 points per tilt, he also finished high rebounder 9 games this season. The first to upset the line-up was 5’9” freshman Ray McCallum, who finished out the season as leading scorer for the Cards with a 16.5 average and accumulating 463 points in just 28 games to place him fifth on the all-time one-season scoring list. McCallum was leading scorer for Ball State in 12 games. Gooden and McCallum were joined by Bradley and John Williams as the only Cards to average in double figures the entire season. All four of these players are underclassmen.

The Cards recorded a 6-13 record, losing some close games that should have been won. The biggest problem for the Cards was the road. The Cards were winless on the road, running up a 0-10 record. That left Ball State with a respectable 6-3 record at home. Included in the Cards’ wins were victories over Purdue, (63-53) a team that had beaten the Cards by 20 points the year before, and a 64- 62 win over highly regarded Western Michigan. The Cards also knocked off a previously unbeaten Franklin team, as well as scoring a 20 point win over Cincinnati. The Cards also had_ the opportunity to play in University Gym for the first time, playing three games there. They won two of those, the Cincinnati win and Bowling Green. The Cards worst loss of the year was at the hands of Dayton, the top team in division II, 102-60. The Cards were, however, down at the half 61-24, meaning they played the Flyers almost even in the second half. The Flyers had two all- Americans on their squad, with one, Anne Meyers scoring 31 points in just over 13 minutes of action. The Cards had entered the state tournament at Indiana State very optimistically. They had _ four starters back from the year before and it looked like they were beginning to gel at the end of the season. Shelley Silk, sophomore center, had scored more than 18 points in four of her last six games, and Lori Robbins had hit for 20 or more twice. Joy Cooney, one of only two seniors on the squad, had 20 points in her last home game, helping the Cards to their win over Western Michigan. However, the jinx of being on the round struck again as the Cards lost to eventual state champion Indiana State 80-76. Silk had 27. points and sophomore Laura Conn added 22 for the Cards causing coach Deb Powers to say “It was encouraging to see our sophomore big girls come up with 49 points. A year ago at the states they were shaking in their shoes.” Powers is obviously looking to the future. With 10 girls coming back next year, Powers has reason to be confident. And only one starter is graduating, Cooney. Cyndie Wineland, a _ guard, is also graduating. That leaves Powers with starters Silk, Conn, Robbins and Teresa McIntire all coming back. Also back will be subs Lisa Senters, Karen Bauer, Luanna Hill, Sharon Jackson, Jill Stevens and Donna Hormann. Silk and Robbins were the team’s top scorers with 11.8 averages. Conn hit for 11.3 and Bauer added 6.3. Senters came off the bench to score five points a game along with McIntire. Bauer is the first woman athlete at Ball State to be granted a full- ride scholarship. Silk was the team’s top rebounder with a 7.7 average. Conn added 5.7 while Bauer got 5.2 a game. On the junior varsity side, the squad finished at 8-0 in the team’s last year of existence. There will be no team next year. Lisa Johnson led the team in scoring with a 15.9 average and Jane Emkes added 10.6 a game. Coach Deb Kaminske substituted liberally to keep fresh players in the game, using a tough defense to dictate the flow of each game. Kaminske picked a defensive player of the game award every game to help stress the team’s goal of a Keep away is the basis for Karen Bauer's actions. Bauer, a freshman forward from Jasper, was a powerful punch for BSU. --photo by Tom Nemcik tough defense. “We're a small team so we have to run and play good defense. We always want to dictate the tempo of the game,” Kaminske said. It evidently worked as Ball State committed only 129 turnovers while forcing 193 and stealing the ball 135 times, but only losing it themselves 43 times. Cindy Jones, a 5-5 guard, led the team in rebounding with average of 6.4 a game. With 10 varsity players coming back and the entire squad of 11 junior varsity players coming up, along with recruits coming in, Powers should have a_ coach’s dream next year trying to pick the team. It will certainly be a pleasant problem compared to the past. --by Kyle Kreiger an Women’s Basketball 313 GYMNASTICS TEAM FRONT ROW:Aaron Taylor, Kevin O Brien, Doug Naylor, Scott Cazel, Russell War- field.

In order to be competitive in gymnastics at the college level, one must be ready to suffer ripped hands, strained muscles, and endless hours of practice. --photo by William E. Vance ie be competitive in any sport, an athlete must be willing to sacrifice. Gymnastics is no excep- tion; in fact it may be a prime ex- ample. In order to be a competitive gym- nast at the college level, one must be ready to suffer ripped hands, strained muscles, weight loss, and seemingly endless hours of practice. But the benefits associated with gymnastics are worth it, as most gymnasts will attest to. Although the men’s gymnastics team came out of the 1979-80 season with a record of 4-7, they proved that Ball State has a gym- nastics team that must be taken seriously. From the seven losses, two of the scores were within three points, and none were spread out beyond 14 points. Head coach, Paul Mayer, has been with the men’s team for the past nine years. In that time, his team has compiled a record of 39- 69. Despite the losing record, the team members have the utmost respect for Mayer. “He's a really good coach. I have enjoyed work- ing with him,” one team member said. Unfortunately, Ball State did not make the NCAA tournament held at Lincoln Nebraska. But the Cards did send a representative. Wayne Graziano, Eatontown, N.J. senior, placed 36th in the ring competi- tion. “I had a really good routine, but my dismount hurt my final score. When you get on the na- tional level, any mistake can kill you. Graziano said. Graziano had a fine senior year with an average on the rings of 9.33 and a high mark of 9.53 against In- diana University, which the Cards Strong Silent Type lost, 249.10 to 250.85. Scott Cazel led the men’s all around competition with an average score of 49.42 and a high score of 51.27. Cazel is expected to be a person to keep an eye on in the future, according to his fellow team mates. Of the 14 men that competed on | this years team, only three will be lost through graduation. Graziano, Willie Collins, and Tim Lucas are all three and four letter winners and will have to be compensated for in the years to come. Lucas, from Wilmington Del., was a close second in the all around with a score of 49.17. He also had an average of 8.33 on the rings. This year’s newcomers, Russel Warfield and Doug Naylor, have proven that Ball State is a young and talented team that has a good future barring physical injury. Warfield, Middletown, Ohio, freshman, supported a 8.75 on the floor exercise and a 8.00 on the high bar. Doug Naylor, Franklin, Ohio, freshman, had a consistant score of 9.11 on vault and a 46.83 in the all around competition. If one could classify the men’s gymnastics team in two words, they would be young and strong. And with the experience of coach Mayer behind them, the men’s team will continue to be taken seriously. --by Steven Bender � With a young and strong team returning next season, the gymnastics team should earn even more respect.

Kim Graham and Melin- da Baufield warm up together before a practice ses- sion. --photo by William E. Vance On the Run I was a year of re-writing records for members of the Ball State women’s track team. An in- door season saw a national qualifier and new records in every event ex- cept the 400 mile run. Freshman Melinda Barfield became the first person in two years to represent the Ball State women in national competition. Barfield set school records in all the sprin- ting events and qualified for na- tional competition in the 100 meter dash. This was only the second year in which the women’s track team had an indoor season. “It makes a world of difference in preparing them for the outdoor season,” said Coach Sharon Burgess. “They came in much stronger.” The team had no goals for the season. “We really can't predict,” said Burgess. “We couldn't say we could score a certain number of points.” There were individual goals to be met, however. Goals that, ac- cording to Burgess, were high, but attainable. “Most of them had some idea in their mind of what that wanted to accomplish,” said Burgess. In her four seasons of coaching at Ball State, Burgess has seen the team get stronger each year. A strong core of sprinters, distance runners, throwers and jumpers ad- ded to the team. “We had a very good group of throwers this year,” she said. “Three people were throwing over the school record. ” “T think we'll have a very strong team next year,” said Burgess. The coach is looking for a strong group of incoming freshmen to strengthen the weak spots on the team as well as supplement the strong spots. The team started practicing at the beginning of winter quarter. According to Burgess, the team is self cutting. There are no formal try-outs. “Our practices are pretty tough,” she said. Staying on the team requires an interest in track and a willingness to work hard. “Those that aren't willing to put in time and effort drop out,” she said. Burgess believes the team was kept together by a strong feeling of unity. “It’s something that makes the whole season worth while when the team developes the kind of closeness they did,” she said. “Team unity was better than ever before.” --by Margit Willis Women’s Track 321 Running Ragged 322 Men’s Track ry it SPL sy ver ust 3 Ww Sn Y, oN St ) SH y ee sf 7.

Only five seniors competed regularly while 12 underclassmen did, including six freshmen. The inexperience and loss of 1979 MAC 110 meter hurdles runner-up Kevin Brown combined with a tough schedule was difficult to overcome, Ball State had a successful indoor campaign under a new head coach Steve Cooksey, going 4-1 with the only loss to a strong Miami team. Kelley Marsh qualified for na- tionals in the 1,000 run but failed to place. Cooksey had expressed concern over the team’s inexperience and his concern turned to reality once the outdoor season started. Entering a five-way meet at Middle Tennessee, the Cardinals could only manage one win--against Notre Dame. Western Michigan was next and Cooksey decided to rest most of his best athletes for the upcoming Dogwood Relays. But the Broncos used all their best men and the result was a 140 to 20 defeat. The Cardinals were now 1-4. The next three weeks were. especially difficult as Ball State went up against some of the top schools in the nation. At the Dogwood Relays, no one was able to place as Tennessee and East Carolina dominated the field. The Illini Classic had the same ending for the Cardinals and Indiana State dominated the Ball State Relays. Kelley Marsh sustained an injury just before the Relays and was out for two weeks. But things changed the following week at Indiana State. “Indiana State has a very tough team, Assistant Coach Craig Sher- man said before the meet. “We have no chance of winning, we just don't have the team to compete with them.” Ignoring Sherman’s prediction, the Cardinals went out and won eight events to upset the Sycamores 78-74, clinching the win with a tie Although the young runners did well in their outdoor season, once they moved inside it was a differnt story.

Unfortunately, Cooksey proved to be a_ better predictor than Sherman as the Car- dinals’ 37 points were enough to beat only last place Toledo. Western Michigan nipped Miami 118.5 to 117.5 for the title. Eastern Michigan was third with 111. The Cardinals were led by Mick Schlachter who scored 18 points by himself with first and second finishes in the 10,000 meter and 5,000 meter races. Schlachter set a record in beating Miamis Bryan Pownall in the 10,000 with a 29:42.9 but Pownall turned the tables in the 5,000 by setting a record with a 14:20.6.

Those hopes were dashed in five matches throughout the year. First, at the Ohio State Invita- tional, the Cards lost a four-game final match to the Buckeyes. Then at the Pittsburgh Invitational the Cards finished fourth, losing to Penn State and Rutgers-Newark. In the first case Bill Fritsch, co- captain, and transfer Phil Craven, along with letterman Rick Nunez did not see action in the tourney. At Pittsburgh, Dave Mochalski was in- jured in the second day of the tour- nament, taking him out of the playoffs. Greg Cox, another starter from 1979 also missed the tourna- ment with an injury.

Vance the all tournament final. The Car- dinals did not lose a game in taking the IIT. The team seemed to get on track early in March. The injuries were healing and everyone was eligible. Two four-game victories over Kellogg Community College and a sweep of Cincinnati brought the Cards back into the form they showed the previous season. But the team still was playing in streaks. “We continued to play in flashes and without complete intensity due to a lack of self and team con- fidence. But when you win, pro- blems take care of themselves,” head coach Don Shondell said. Ball State seemed to improve in a three-game sweep of non- conference foe Drake, but then had problems with George Williams College. The Cards played possibly their best match up to that point by beating Wisconsin in three easy games in Madison. “Everybody had a positive attitude. We had a meeting and talked about some things. Once we started play- ing as a team last year everything went well,” Shondell said. For Bill Fritsch, the object was to spike the ball down hard and fast past his opponents. --photo by William E.

The Cards were one match ahead of Ohio State in the chase for the Midwest Intercollegiate Volleyball Associa- tion title because of the Bucks’ loss to Kellogg. The Cards started a three match road trip with wins at George Williams and Earlham. Then came the real obstacle, Ohio State. The two teams had been the only MIVA representatives to the NCAA finals, the Buckeyes going four times as compared to Ball State's six. The Cards seemed confident on their way to Columbus for the match. Everyone was a little ner- vous, but it was mostly anticipa- tion. The return trip was not nearly as fun. The Buckeyes gave the Cards a lesson in volleyball, beating Ball State 15-5, 15-9, 15-4 in a match lasting only 50 minutes. The Cards could have clinched the MIVA title with a win, but went home needing a victory in University Gym to get into the NCAA finals at Ball State. It wasn’t in the Cards as they say. Ohio State overcame a strong Ball State start to win 16-18, 15-12, 15- 12, 15-6 decision here. Ball State — had an 11-3 lead in gametwoandit — looked like the match might be just about over when the Buckeyes scored seven straight points to get back in the game. The Cards fell behind 11-6 in game three, got back within 13-2, but could not pull it out. The last game was never close as the Buckeyes qualified for the NCAA finals. “We had a nice lead (in the se- cond game), all we had to do was keep the pressure on them. I don’t know what happened, it’s such a mental game’ Shondell said. The Cards ended the season at 8- 2 in the league while Ohio State finished a perfect 10-0. For the second time in a row, the other being in 1976, the Cards hosted the NCAA finals and did not qualify. The Cards agony wasn't over. In the MIVA Classic, the Cards drew Ohio State in the first round of the tournament played here. The Buckeyes did it again, coming back from a 7-0 deficit in the final game. “It was reminiscent of the second game a week ago,” Shondell said. “We made some quick errors and it got out of hand.” Kellogg upset Ohio State in a four-game match to win the tour- nament. After the season, starters Phil Craven and Dave Mochalski an- nounce their plans to transfer while sophomore Doug West was con- sidering leaving. In the MIVA all-league voting, Mochalski and Pete Waite, a sophomore were named to the team for the first time while senior Fritsch was selected for the second year in a row.

It was the only na- tional championship held at Ball State. It was one of the few times Ball State got national attention. It was the NCAA volleyball cham- pionships held in University Gym May 9-10. Unfortunately the Cardinals were sitting on the sidelines wat- ching instead of playing. That had also happened in 1976 as Ohio State upset the Cards to make their first appearance in the tourney. This year USC, UCLA, and Rutgers-Newark joined Ohio State in University Gym for the two days of competition. Being the official scorer gave me a chance to see a lot of the tournament which most peo- ple don't know exists. On Wednesday May 7, a press reception was held at Tony's Lockerroom. The big moment of the night came when UCLA coach Al Scates, well known for his wit, spoke about Muncie, Ball State and Don Shondell, each getting a good dose of Scates ribbing. Thursday was the official dinner at the Quality Inn. Having been on teams with some of the participants in this years tourney gave me a chance to talk about old times with them. I also sat across from Dianna Nyad, famous long-distance swim- mer, who ABC had assigned to do the color commentary. She seemed excited about the op- portunity, but admitted to having little volleyball experience. She seemed relaxed however, a point she disproved the next night when she needed several tries before get- ting her pre-game analysis right. The officials meeting gave me a chance to see what must actually be done to put on this type of tourna- ment. ABC had requests of changes to be made in normal volleyball rules that took a long time to work out. The funny thing was no one really talked during the discussions! The next day I took my spot at the scorers table as the teams warmed up. The semi-finals were Friday and I made the first mistake that mattered when I let a Rutgers- Newark player serve out of order. Very embarrassing! The rest of the night went smoothly and I looked forward to Saturday's finals. Saturday went perfect, no mistakes, the only problem was one official got sick because of the water and a replacement was ap- pointed. In fact several UCLA players said later they were also sick.

Before and after each half-time performance, the band section creates their own cheering section that screams rhythmic chants from the opposing side of the field. The opponents are frequently inhibited by the musical pan- damonium that fills the stadium. Win or lose, the band is always at the game with their undying sup- port and loyalty to the football team. Regardless of the weather forecast, the Ball State Marching Band is busy perfecting numerous musical arrangements for the Car- dinal football season. The Ball State Marching Band members must devote quite a bit of time and effort into their semi- weekly performance. Each show looks easy, but that is because the band spends a great deal of time working on the overall execution. In addition to maintaining a full- time academic schedule, the band members must allow 10-12 hours a week for practicing instrumentals as well as the choreographed routines. According to Marian Pryzbylski, Indianapolis junior and former band member, “Marching band is rigorous and exhausting yet fun, and personally rewarding.” Pryzbylski said that although the band requires significant dedica- tion, it all seems worthwhile when the crowd responds to the half-time show with enthusiasm. Rhonda Reeves, freshman, said her experience in the band has been Um-pa! Um-pa-pa! great. “You establish many lasting friendships with other members.” the band travels together to one out-of-town football game during the regular season. “This year we went to Kalamazoo for the weekend,” said Reeves. Tom Stout, three-year trumpeter for the Pride of Mid-America said, | “T have learned how to allot my time to accommodate both my ac- tivities in the classroom, as well as the time devoted to practicing with band Wa™ According to Reeves, | the band.” His three years of in- @ volvement with the band reflects his feelings and attitude toward the | group. It has become a regular routine that parallels with his academic life. Although each student plays an important role in the effectiveness of the band, director, T. Roger Mc- Connell is the originator of most of the routines. Sufficient planning is necessary to assure a_ successful year. Planning begins early each summer when McConnell and his assistants compose charts, and pieces to fill each 7-to-15 minute half-program in the upcoming foot- ball season. McConnell is always looking for a “bigger and fuller sound.” The combined efforts of all of these people create the professional show that is seen by Cardinal foot- ball fans. The talent of these in- dividuals is evidently appreciated by the round of applause that fills the stadium after each _per- formance. The Pride of Mid- America is certainly well named as it is surely one of the most prized organizations on campus. --by Min- dy Pesch During a brief moment before the last Homecoming practice, Julie Powand, Cardette, takes the time to do some day-dreaming and pondering of events. --photo by Tom Nemcik Marching Band 331 1979 TENNIS TEAM FRONT ROW: Janice Ross, Deb Roerder, Sally Spencer, Shelli Fullhardt, Eileen Horan.

Coach Bill Richard’s team lived up to their high pre-season expecta- tions in winning 16 of their last meets and going 8-1 into Mid- American conference matches. The season included big wins over Western Michigan and Indiana State. The surprise of the year was probablyJim Greiner. The Muncie senior, who played sixth singles the previous season, leapfrogged all the way to the top of the lineup and compiled and outstanding 16-6 record. In one stretch, Greiner won 15 consecutive sets. In doubles, he combined with freshman __ Jeff Suratt for a 13-1 record at third, losing only to Miami.

Vance tively, and each had their ups and downs over the season. Wood started poorly, but he played outstandingly in the middle of the year before arm problems affected him. As usual, Smart was a winner if his fragile concentration was in- tact. Ballingall did not start playing until the fourth match of the year, as he was ineligible for the Florida trip. He also fought off a mid- season chest cold and its after ef- fects after playing solid tennis earlier. In doubles, Ballingall and Schubert were the MAC’s top number two team heading into the conference tournament. Freshman Surratt, of St. Louis came in late in the season after a bad start to claim the second seed in the MAC tournament. Suratt and roommate Mark Montgomery, also of St. Louis, battled for the sixth position throughout the first half of the year, but Suratt’s outstanding doubles play always kept hem in the lineup. When his singles play improved, the 510” basher was in to stay. Montgomery was somewhat of a mystery. After playing fine tennis in the fall, he never regained that form in the spring, although his tremendous comeback win over Western Michigan--after saving four match points--was one of the team’s best individual wins of the season. Freshman Eddie O’Korn and Charles Arch established themselves as players to look out for next year with outstanding spot performances against the Car- dinals’ weaker opponents, as did sophomore Mike Gabel. Other members of the team were sophomore Rick Hiatt and freshman Bob Thomas. Scott Perelman, a past Cardinal star, returned from California to serve as Coach Richard’s assistant. The Cardinals, with four outstanding recruits for next season, may be on the verge of becoming a Midwest powerhouse. --by Bernie Kohn The most pleasant surprise of the year, Muncie senior Jim Greiner, compiled a 16-6 record.

Leaves Legacy _ Ls 1979, the Cardinal lacrosse team finished with 11 wins and 1 loss, but more outstanding was the fact that they outscored their op- ponents 120 goals to 57 goals, or in other words more than 2 to 1. Considered a rebuilding season, the Cards faced a tough schedule which included a new opponent in Sauk Valley. The reason for the rebuilding season is that four year lacrosse coach Jackie Schmidt lost seven scoring members and two_ key defensive players from the ‘79 squad. Returning to this year’s squad for her fourth season, and giving her all, was senior Sandy Straup at cover point. Also returning was Denise Pflum, who played last season on the na- tional lacrosse tournament’s second team, returned to defensive wing. Other three-year players Donna Tharp and Fran Mazza returned to their attack wing positions. Jane Seevers, another three-year member, shared her goalie roles Francis Mazza looks for an opening to move the ball downfield as her teammates look on. The ability to move the ball and keep an eve on the field is an in- dispensable asset in lacrosse. with first year participant Jill Stevens, who recorded 142 saves on goal. Seevers had 30 saves. Although the team started out on the wrong foot with a loss to Oberlin College, 7-3, the Cards bounced back and won straight games and then took a loss on the chin the last game of the regularly scheduled season from Ohio University. Then the lacrossers poured it on at the Midwest Regionals in Colum- bus, Ohio, defeating Cuyahoga, 9- 3 and then attained their highest point output against Ohio State, defeating them 21-10. Two girls then advanced by vir- tue of an All-Star selection to the Nationals Tournament. They were Lori Schmidt, top goal getter hit- ting on 40 of 93 attempted goals, and goalie Jill Stevens. Jackie Schmidt, in her fourth year as lacrosse and field hockey coach is leaving a vacancy at Ball State that will be very hard to fill. While at B.S.U. Schmidt ac- cumulated a record of great stature with 35 victories, 8 losses and only 1 tie. She will be missed by both her players and the other students at B.S.U. --bv Matthew Buehler Teamwork helped the Cardinals to their 11 wins this season as Toni Russell and her teammates demonstrate.

In their first game the following weekend they soundly beat the Wright State team at the West Campus pitch across from the hospital. A week later they suffered a close defeat at the hands of the In- dianapolis Centurions. It was a hard fought battle that saw many injuries, including a knee injury to Kent Miller that forced him to miss the rest of the fall season and also the spring season. The weeks that followed saw numerou s losses for the Ball State team that was now dwindling due to various elbow, ankle, and knee ailments. One highlight of the season though was the alumni game that took place on Homecoming weekend. This annual event pitted ruggers from past Ball State teams against the healthy remainder of the current Cardinal players, and the alumni came out on top in an enjoyable game. Winter quarter was a time of rest and relaxation while the various in- juries were given a couple of mon- ths to heal. However, after Christmas break the club began again with its new winter training program in the field and sports building. A few of the hard-core Football isnt the only rough and tough contact sport.

Vance rugby players, along with a number of “rookies” that were recruited in the preceding months, went through a rigorous workout three times a week in an effort to be in top form for the coming spring season. As soon as the brown grass began to show through the melting snow, the rugby club hit the road to get used to the cold by running down the campus streets. Under the leadership of John Ludy, the fun- damentals of rugby were learned by the new players and practiced by the veterans. However, a lack of experience overall handicapped the team, and they failed to gain the elusive victory that they needed. But there was one bright spot in the schedule, and that was the Mid- American Championship which was held at Ball State. Ohio University was victorious as Ball State managed a sixth place. The team was again hampered by in- juries, and it ended the season by being narrowly defeated by the Miami Club. Meyers Valley --by Rod Men’s Rugby 351 Settling Into Insanity Seeetines the settling in atmosphere of a college campus is interrupted by the insanity of the rest of the world. In 1980 there were few exceptions, especially with the crisis in Iran and rising prices wherever money was exchanged; for even the needy items such as gas, food on Friday night, and a pair of Levis had gone up and kept going. On a less insane side, a new president fit into the university and he and his family took over the presi- dent’s house with a real home atmosphere. Fashion took a return to the 1940’s as long skirts and spiked heels returned with bright colors and jacketed outfits.

From November 4 on, students were kept up to date on the news with “America Held Hostage” newsbreaks. Rumors of war and military conflict ran rampant on campus and came to somewhat of a climax when President Jimmy Carter called for a return of the draft registration in January. In the center of the entire Iranian U.S. conflict was the former Shah of Iran, who just happened to pay a visit to the United States for “medical reasons. He later moved on to Panama and then to Cairo for asylum. The Iranian people seemed to want nothing more than to have the Shah back--not 354 Orient’s Magazine Confusion, conflict at home and abroad as a ruler, but to try him tor what may have seemed to be criminal acts during his ad- ministration. The American overnment stated that it would ave no part in the Shah’s return, nor would it apologize for any part it played in the Shah’s reign to office. In lays April, word was received from the White House that it looked as if the American hostages would be taken control of by the Iranian Revolutionary Council, a positive move in the eyes of the Carter administra- tion. President Carter felt it was such a positive move that he agreed in writing not to initiate hostilities or propaganda against Iran. Only continued confusion and concern followed when the Revolutionary Council refused to take control of the hostages--even after Iranian President Abolhassan Bani-Sadr reportedly told United Nations Secretary General Kurt Waldheim that it would be done. White House of- ficials were left in a stumper as they had already pledged total restraint. Meanwhile, protests of varied kinds began on college campuses cross the United States. Most of the protests dealt with the Ira- nian Hostage crisis, but varied from “Down with the Draft” to Bomb Iran” to “Leave the Ira- nian Students Alone.” At Ball State, protests dealt with each of the issues mentioned, but mainly centered on negative feelings for the President’s draft call and equally pepe ye feelings for what was happening in Iran. At the beginning of the hostage situation, president Carter's popularity sky-rocketed. Organized demonstrations were planned and acted out by angry students during the earlier days of the crisis in Iran. Meanwhile, Iranian students made a trip to Indianapolis for a visa check. photo by William E. Vance Patriotism had never been so popular on campus before.

The film’s producer, a Hollywood brat trying for his second hit, expound- ed to reporters on the movie’s human drama. Life imitated art to produce real-life drama when, 12 days later on April 4, the Three Mile Island nuclear plant near Harrisburg, Pennsylvania faced the threat of a very real China Syndrome. Pregnant women and pre-school children were urg- ed to move beyond a five-mile radius of the plant, and President Carter toured the facility to prove the effectiveness of the plant’s safety systems.

Besides music, the concert goers heard speeches by Ralph Nader and political activists Jane Fonda and Tom Hayden. Dubbed the “Mork and Mindy of California politics” by the press, Fonda and Hayden began their own campaign for the gradual hasing out of nuclear plants in the fall. Their 32- ay, 00-city tour was aimed at the “silent majori- ty, according to Fonda. Founders of the Campaign for Economic Democracy in 1976, Fonda and Hayden faced crowds more interested in Jane Fonda the movie star, than in any issue. Fonda proved to be the drawing card for Hayden, the spokesman. Although they won converts with their political finesse, the Haydens found the press was not always as easy to impress. Fonda in particular received flack from conservatives. One editorial in an eastern newspaper accused Fonda of a “guilt-ridden, rich- bitch mentality.” Nonetheless, the Fonda-Hayden tour and the No Nukes concerts are only two publicized examples of the growing movement to eliminate nuclear power plants. Whether led by prophets or reactionists, the anti-nuclear power movement may bring about an unintended change from the “me decade” of the 70s to the “we decade” of the ’80s as people unite for a common cause. --Paula Glass nn NE a Weighing the price of aGPA ave you ever stopped and asked yourself if your college education is worth all you go through?

The new styles consist of designer wear, bright colors, and the 40’s look in suits and dress wear. In 1979, designer clothing came into its own, one might say. Everyone was buying designer clothing whether it be Calvin Klein or Sassoon. “Designers are stars now and we know about them,” Mrs. Adams, coordinator of the home economics fashion coordinating major, said. “There was a time when one would go into a store and purchase a piece of clothing and not know who it was designed by because they all carried the store abel.

Yorktown freshman Kevin Short has also recognized the ongoing need to study. It was the same for him in high school when he found he was always trying to get ahead of the rest of the class.

Born in Menomoni, a town in northern Wisconsin, Mrs. Anderson attended the University of Wisconsin at Eau Claire. While teaching French and English in Menomoni, the high school teacher met her future husband via a mutual friend. Although that first date was not particularly memorable to either party, the couple was married within the year. Eventually two sons were born to the Andersons.

By the diversity represented by books lining their ome, it is obvious that educa- tion is an important aspect of the Andersons lives. That importance on education is what ultimately led the Ander- sons to position of president and first lady of Ball State. Although Mrs. Anderson said, “I don’t feel that much different,” assuming the presidency has changed the family’s lifestyle somewhat. “We've always worked as a team,” she explained. “There are certain responsibilities at each level of administrative positions, so with each move up, weve continued to work together on the same things, only expand them.” “Everyone has been really _ a , a £ wl : r “ i the, — i Sa ‘ - 360 Orient’s Magazine Jerry, Betty, Tim, Greg, and Lassie stand in the doorway of their home. “We've always worked as a team,” Mrs. Anderson said. --photo by Tom Nemcik Timmy Anderson, age three, takes a snack from his mother over the counter. “Although the children love what I cook, I just can’t seem to get that ‘gramma’ quality,” Betty said. --photo by Tom Nemcik great since we arrived in July,” she emphasized, her voice sincere and direct.

Functional yet elegant, the spacious home features three stories. Two stairwells lead to the top floor which houses four bedrooms. The immaculate main floor is an entertainment center for the president and wife with a formal pets area, foyer and living room along with com- fortable kitchen, dinnette, closed- in porch and den. A spacious recreation room highlights the basement area. An attribute making this tradi- tional home the Andersons’ own is the wide variety of artwork throughout the house. From a pagans of old New Orleans to andscapes from Washington state to a piece of stitchery by Dr. Anderson’s now-decease mother, Mrs. Anderson proudly gave background on their per- sonal collection. The colonial-style also received a facelift as major struc tura work was undertaken. In addi- tion to painting and wallpaper- ing, the Andersons’ new home received plumbing work and a new furnace.

Sara Kierns, Angola senior, has lived her entire four years in the residence hall. She never really thought about moving off- campus. “I think it’s cheaper and more convenient here,” Kierns said. “And I have a lot of friends here.” She feels she doesn’t waste money on the dining service ecause of her eating habits.

Students were occasionally known to arrange their afternoon schedules so that they could watch their favorite ae opera. Elaine Hawkins, an Elkhart junior, said her favorite shows were ‘The Guiding Light” and an evening soap, “Dallas”. A television was an essential to a shores enthusiast. Cardina basketball fans could watch their team in action on Channel 49 if they couldn’t make it to the game itself. | Bracken Library was almost | deserted on “Super Sunday” as students crowded around their sets to watch the Pittsburgh Steelers defeat the Los Angeles Rams. Another sports spectacular was the 1980 Olympics. Not only football fans were watching as “The Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders Special--Part II” was broadcasted. “TV is the ultimate escape mechianism,’” was Muncie senior Andy Lykens description of television. His favorite “escapes” were “Lou Grant” and “60 Minutes’. Not everyone was enthusiastic about TV. “I think it’s asinine,” said Connie Corey, a junior from Bedford. “It plays on our ig- norance. Corey did admit, owever, to occasionally wat- ching “The Muppet Show” and-- you guessed it-- “Mork and Min- dy”. --by Karen Terhune Screen scope M ovies have always been the great escape for college students tired of textbooks and research papers, and with adde economic and political uncertain- ties, this year was no exception. While the recording industry suf- fered a recession and profits nose dived, movie industry profits were never higher nor ticket lines longer in Muncie and all over the country. Producers spared no ex- pene in their quest for big ucks. This year saw the release of the two most expensive movies ever made: Star Trek--The Mo- tion Picture, the big-screen ver- sion of the classic series, and PCICALY ESE Now, Francis Ford Oppel s multi-million dollar gamble. Star Trek fans anxiously awaited the movie-version of the still-popular television series, and their enthusiasm paid off hand- somely for producer Gene Rod- peau who miraculously assembled the original cast with the addition of bals sexpot Lieutenant Ilia and her love in- terest, Commander Decker. ety effects technicians from lose Encounters and Star Wars created the dazzling Fae million effects for the $44 million movie. Although the Enterprise was battered by poor reviews, the ip and its crew soared in the public’s opinion with long lines and gross profits of an un- recedented $11.9 million in its irst three days.

A residence hall coed takes a few minutes to watch the evening news. --photo by Bill Vance 2086 profits were also the reward for Francis Ford Cop- pola’s 10-year flirtation with movie-Russian Roulette. Coppola morgaged much of his property to finish his $30.5 million Apolcalpse Now, a blood sion of Vietnam starring Marlon Brando and Martin Sheen. The film received mixed reviews, but box office receipts were good. Big-budget films were not the only ones to receive publicity and large profits. Two films faced the pu lic’s wrath and adulation: he Life of Brian for its parody of the New Testament and The Rose for its painfully accurate portrait of a rock star on the way own. The Life of Brian or as one critic called it, “The Gospel ac- cording to Monty Python” came under attack from religious BIGUDS locally and in nearby nderson for its tale of Brian Cohen (Graham Chapman), a contemporary of Jesus, who is mistaken for the messiah. The Northwest Plaza, which showed the film in Muncie, placed a notice at the box office warning patrons that the movie might be offensive to some. But the con- troversy surrounding the film did nothing to reduce attendence and profits. While Monty Python faced lukewarm critics, Bette Midler had critics raving about her elec- tric performance as a se destructive singer who OD’s on life in The Rose. Some critics compared her to Streisand, and the movie also proved popular with the public. Comedy and its synonym for the college crowd, Steve Martin, scored big this year with his first starring role in ats Martin prouaed Navan Johnson, a _ | poor black sharecropper’s son ver- in this rags-to-riches-to-rags-to- riches tale. Martin also proved his versatility this year with a best-selling book, Cruel Shoes and comedy album Comedy Is Not Pretty. Other guy movies this year included The Electirc Horseman, Kramer vs. Kramer, 10, Starting Over, and 1941. While students look to movies for an escape to a world of hap- iness and prosperity, their at- endence made such a world yet for movie industry of- icial and actors who reaped the bounty of large profits an public as well as critical acclaim. --by Paula Glass Orient’s Magazine 369 Settling in Together heres no excuse for one to say at BSU, “I don’t have anything to do.” How can one just bum around when there are over 100 organizations surrounding him. It’s the Greeks, hall leaders and special in- terest groups which motivate the students to get involved. From September to May, students were swamped with activities. Rush started the year s activities, and bike-a-thon ended them. In between these fun-filled events were scheduled functions, as well as, spur-of-the moment socials. Without these activities, the campus would never have gotten settled in. --by Linda A. Roberts Deciding to or not to go Greek was a major concern for hundreds of freshmen, like Mary Ellen O'Rourke. For the first Rush parties potential pledges spent hours creating the desired effect and hoping they would fit the expected image. Some made it. Some didnt. --photo by William E.

Sisterhood-- there’s nothing in the world to com- pare to it, according to Christi Weilbaker, panhellenic president. She feels one can’t benefit from auy other organization like one can from a sorority. “I can’t imagine what it would be like without it,” said Deb Mc- Clurg, an Alpha Chi Omega in- itiate. Once one finds the closeness in a group, it’s difficult to imagine 372 Sororities what it would be like without that feeling. Cindy Glass, a Sigma Kap- pa member, believes sorority life has enhanced her college career and made her a better person. “T feel involved on campus; I know so many people through it. You always have some place to go, even in the winter time when the campus is dead,’ said Lisa Dillman, an Alpha Omicron Pi in- itiate. It’s a nice feeling to be able to say “hi” to so many familiar faces on campus. According to Julie Powanda, sorority life has helped her get into other organizations. Also, it’s a little something extra to put on the resume. The majority of girls go through rush just to see what it’s all about. Dillman had no intention of pledg- ing. But, when she thought of all that work she was going through for nothing, she decided to pledge and make it all worth while. To this day, Dillman and many others don’t regret it.

To start the Greek year off, Alpha Chi Omega sponsored the annual fall Watermelon Bust with the Delta Tau Delta brothers. Alpha Chi donated its profits to cystic phybrosis.

Every year sisters and alumni bring things ranging from pillows, dolls, plants to ee See ron RNR OTETIT Te a OER nen candles, afghans and mantel displays. Alan Wilson, Muncie mayor, served as the auctioneer for Sigma Kappa'ss auction. Funds raised went to Riley Children’s Memorial hospital in Indianapolis. Besides holding an auction, they collected canned goods and clothing for the Maine seacost mission. Kappa Alpha Theta hosted a spaghetti dinner with the Sigma Nu’s. The Thetas sent the profits to Logo pedics in Wichita, Kansas. In December, Pi Beta Phi sorori- ty tried something new--a Pi Phi plunge. The water activity con- sisted mostly of goofy events. “Ringing the bell” for the Salva- tion Army took place at Christmas time, and the Chi Omega’s were one of the many groups to par- ticipate. Not only did the Chi O’s ring the bell, but they also spon- sored the BSU superstar event in January. Earnings went to the diabetic association. Collecting money for the heart fund was Alpha Phi’s main objec- tive. They sold _ suckers, _ par- ticipated in Bowl-A-Rama with the Sigma Chi’s, and sponsored a swim- a-thon. Also, sisters collected change at a Chevrolet factory.

Besides walking 18 miles with no food, Delta Sigma Theta collected for the United Negro Col- lege Fund and for the American Cancer Society.

The 95 members of Ball State University’s newest sorority first met in the winter of 1980. The deci- sion to organize a new sorority was made by the members of Panhellenic Council who organized the first meetings. “The main reason for forming a new sorority was because of the large numbers of girls who were in- terested in joining a sorority, but did not get in one or did not want to join one of the sororities that had not reached its quota of new members yet, said Cristi Weilbaker, Panhellenic Council President. Installed as a local sorority by Panhellenic Council, going na- tional became the major goal of the members of Lamda Gamma Nu. New Lambda Gamma Nu After numerous inquiries from a number of national sororities, members narrowed the list to three national organizations. These three groups were invited to campus to give presentations. The selection process was a dual one. Lamda Gamma Nu had to agree on the national and the na- Sororities 379 New Nu tional had to agree to colonize at Ball State. A mutual agreement was reached on April 23 and Lamda Gamma Nu became the Beta Chi chapter of Delta Delta Delta sorori- ty. Becoming involved in campus ac- tivities almost immediately, the “Tri-Delts” had two trike teams in 380 Sororities Bike-A-Thon and won the spirit trophy in the Bike-A-Thon Parade. “They are so organized and en- thusiastic, they can’t help but make it,” said Kelly McCoy, a member of Sigma Kappa sorority. “It helps all Greeks, because they (members of Delta Delta Delta sorority) are a mixture of people and discourage stereotypes. Now pledges of the sorority, members will go active in the fall of 1980. They will also take a fall pledge class. “Our biggest goal right now is to get to know each other,” said Michelle Paddock, Delta Delta Delta sorority president. “All the Greeks have been a lot of help. I'm really impressed.” Susan Lemmon and her Alpha Omicron Pi team- mates join in the hefty fun of the watermelon toss during the Watermelon Bust festivities. --photo by William E.

Hegvan Jr. Attending information hours, touring houses, drinking beer and most of all, meeting people, people and more people. This is the beginning. Rush--when the fraternity brothers get an idea of who exactly is interested in their fraternity. Rush not only gives the brothers an opportunity to select who they want as members, but it also helps an individual select a fraternity he feels comfortable in. After being selected by a nt re mii q rinkers often-had to improvise..This woman mixes herself a Seven and Seven using a whiskey marked fraternity, an individual goes through a sort of “internship” or pledgeship where he learns what it means to be GREEK. Rick Simpson, former Sigma Alpha Epsilon president stated, “The main purpose of pledgeship is to bring a group of individuals, that didn’t previously know each other, together as a closely knit group--the end result being that they become a member of a GREEK organization.” The pledge classes learn that being in a fraternity is not only fun, it’s also a lot of work. Before a pledge can become an active member, many fraternities require the pledge to take a national test. This test requires the pledge to know the history of their individual chapter, their national fraternity, and the history of Ball State itself. Pledges are also required to do certain community projects. The pledge classes raise money for different causes such as the March Fraternities 389 : 4 Hough CireustFeed fe devirdl teal ahi bbothe: chariot races, the real attractions were the hot- 7 J dies, chips, and Coke which the SAE brothers pro- 3 ee ager by William E. Vance Rush! of Dimes, Muscular Distrophy Association, and underpriviledged children. They also do smaller community activities closer to campus. These activities range from picking up the trash along White River to visiting the kids at the Delaware County Home. Helping around the frat house is also required. The pledge brothers take care of such tasks as raking leaves, cutting the grass and cleaning up the house. These activities get the pledges to the frat house more often and also closer to 390 Fraternities the active brothers. “Being in a fraternity is a lot of work, but hopefully it makes you a more responsible individual,” said Simpson. A big part of the responsibility is in fulfilling the duties of a pledge and keeping up with studying. “You have to learn to budget your time better,” said Sigma Chi pledge, Emerson Kampen. “Being in a fraternity takes up a lot of my time, but I find time to study if I can motivate myself.” Many fraternities help with the studying by setting up study tables for their pledge classes. But being in a fraternity is not all work and no play. There are keggers and cash bars to attend. One of the biggest activities is a walk-out. During the walk-out, pledges “kidnap” active members and take them to another university. The main purpose of the walk-out is to get the pledges away from campus and give them a chance to get to know one another better. Being a _ pledge teaches an individual more than just what it is like to be GREEK. It teaches one responsibility and most importantly a better understanding of people, because as Simpson said, “A fraternity is not just a house; it’s the people that make up the house.” --by Darlene Banta DELTA TAU DELTA.

After moving out of the dorm and into fraternity houses, many brothers saw advantages to the change. Chuck Carr, Alpha Tau Omega, said, “I didn’t get into paying $1l a quarter for hall damages and standing out in the cold at fire alarms.” He believes it is much easier to study in the house for there is less noise. According to Frank Konermam, Phi Sigma Epsilon, since living in the house, his grades have improved due to his brothers’ assistance. Some brothers believe as does Dan Hittle, Sigma Chi. He said the fraternity means more to him now after living in the house. By living with many types of personalities, it may teach one to have better communication skills. Many of the fraternity brothers agreed the food is much better in the house compared to the dorm. In addition to being served better food, they feel there is more freedom in the house. Another point made was in regard to parking. Ken Deuser, Mavbe sharing is caring. Russell Hargitt, Lafayette junior, and Karen Pluimer, Oxford freshman, share a glass of beverage during the Delta Tau Delta Christmas party. --photo by Larry Prazak Joys Sigma Chi, said, “You can always find a parking spot for the lot is right on the premises.” Thomas Avila said, “I don't have to worry about losing my key.” The house door is usually unlocked. Besides being granted more freedom, there are many activities in which one may get involved. According to Dan _ Hendricks, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, there are the traditional rivalries and parties. GOREES 394 Fraternities Even though there are many advantages to living in the house compared to the dorm, there are also a few disadvantages. According to Pat Dowling, Sigma Nu, it’s difficult to go to bed when he wants to because of the loud parties going on downstairs. Contrasting to Carr’s statement about studying, Scott Bockover, Sigma Tau Gamma, finds it hard to study at the house due to the constant noise; therefore, he resorts to the library. Both, advantages and disadvantages of living in the house have been stated. The brothers, however, believe the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. Out of all the advantages mentioned, one of the most important is growing as a family unit. Mike Catania, Sigma Tau Gamma, believes the idea of a fraternity is to make life-long friends. Jay Pauley, Sigma Phi Epsilon, said, “Everybody is friendly. I haven’t regretted living in the house a bit.”’--by Gayle DeMeester and Linda Roberts Theme parties are always a favorite.

Somehow, the grandmotherly-type woman who cooks, cleans, and hovers over her men has _ been replaced by a newer breed. The four official housemothers define their jobs as basically just being with the boys.- “The relationship is the most important aspect,” says Mom _ Kinders, housemother at Sigma Phi Epsilon Fraternity.. “It’s just to be there when they need to get something 396 Fraternities off their chest.” Other functions of the housemother’s position may be to attend her fraternities parties, act as hostess for the parents, go to the games that members of the fraternity are involved in, collect the rent, prepare the menus, the food, and act as a character witness for fraternity brothers applying for jobs or scholarships. Some of the housemothers help to prepare special dinners held at the house. One is Mom Hawn of Beta Theta Pi. She also fixes food for events such as Bike-AThon and Homecoming. Mom Collins, housemother for fraternity Sigma Chi will press pants or sew on buttons if “her men” get into a bind. She says her job consists of “whatever you would do for any son.” “It’s what your mom at home would do for you,” said Bob Barris of Sigma Phi Epsilon Fraternity. “It (the job) is whatever you make it to be,” said Mary (Mom T.)

Other | Tau Delta housemother. Alpha Tau Omega “sort of adopted” a widow neighbor, Mrs. | Ruble, as their honorary | housemother said a member, Phil ee Bush. That relationship “consists of little things,” Bush said. “For example, she bakes cookies for us, and we take care of her yard.” Mom Collins feels that the fraternities on campus. with housemothers have a better rapport with the university in general. “She (Collins) is well looked upon by the university,” said Jim Greulick of Sigma Chi Fraternity. Other Sigma Chi brothers said that having a housemother makes them “think twice” and “forces you to watch your manners.” The fo ur women _ became interested in the _ position of housemother after it was suggested to them by family members. After applying for the job, they were interviewed by Dr. Collier, and the president and housing board of their respective fraternities. “For the first two weeks, I thought I couldn't take it,” said Stuck in the crack of the window, this man butts in unexpectedly during the ATO yard party. --photo by William E.

Would I still be here after 17 years,” asked Mom Kinders, “if I didn’t think it was the greatest?” --by Kathy Lee Fraternities 399 It's All Greek To Me! Ihe a change from _ previous years, Greek Week '80 was expand- ed from what had previously been a weekend activity. Held during the last week of January, Greek Week featured activities involving members of all fraternities and sororities on the campus. “All year we compete against each other,” said Pam Dennis, a member of the Greek Week steering committee. “Greek Week is to unite all greeks.” “It’s Greek to me” buttons were seen around campus as the week 400 Greek Week began with a fair in the Student Center. Sororities and fraternities set up booths to show people what their organizations were about, as well as the activities and projects their groups were involved in. Open Houses on Tuesday and Exchange Dinners on Thursday allowed people to visit other frater- nity houses and sorority suites. An all-Greek variety show featured songs, dances and other acts with a “Greek-oriented’ theme. Lynn Huston, a member of Sigma Sigma Sigma Sorority and Don Dross, a member of Delta Tau Delta Frater- nity were crowned Greek Week queen and king at this event. Other activities held during the week included an all-Greek disco in the Student Center, a Greek night at King’s Corner and a President’s Dinner with Ball State President Jerry Anderson the featured speaker. Entertainment highlight of the week was the Kenny Loggins concert on Saturday night. Spring Sing or Spring Fling?

Ads in the Daily News proclaim the plight of desperate students: Friday is fast approaching, and many--despite offers to split soaring gas expenses and share tiresome driving--still don’t have a ride home for the weekend. Branded as a “suitcase college” because of the mass exodus of students every Friday afternoon, Ball State shows about as much life as a ghost town on weekends. Sud- 406 Halls denly there are parking spaces available, no dining service lines, and long stretches of empty time-- almost as bad as spending the sum- mer on campus. Nothing can keep them here--not the frat parties, or the activities planned by the residence halls, or even a Friday class. In fact, some ingenious students plan their schedules so they either don’t have a Friday class, or at least so they finish early that day. Tim Sudrovech, Whitcraft presi- dent, sees a cyclic trend with the weekend on-campus population. Two weekends _ before finals everyone goes home, but most re- main on campus the weekend right before the exams. Students also leave the weekend before Homecoming, but stay the weekend of the game, he observed. Activities don’t seem to have much influence on the students. “Most of the people keep themselves relative- ly busy on their own,” commented A desperate plea for relief from this LaFollette resident is indicative of finals week frets. Last minute papers and projects kept dorm dwellers in their rooms for at least one week a quarter. --photo by Larry Prazak Two women frolic in the winter fun outside Schmidt- Wilson Halls during a snow-covered campus night.

Crosley president, Julia Zinsmeister, has also noticed that activities don’t keep students on campus. “I think the problem is people just don’t care. They'll go home no matter what’s planned.” “We try to plan activities, but it doesn't help,” said Edwards presi- dent, Tim Addison. “A lot of people are close to home here,” he con- tinued, citing friends, family, or a job as the main reasons students go home for the weekend. Wendy Arner, Brady president, sees a different trend; the majority of Brady residents seem to remain in the hall for the weekend. “We're involved in almost everything the campus has to offer,” she said, ex- plaining that Brady has a team or representative at most campus events. Being friendly with the peo- ple you live with is also an impor- tant factor. “We stress the open door policy. . .I think the girls know each other.” The students themselves sometimes see the reasons for going home each weekend a little dif- ferently than residence hall officers. Apathy or unwillingness to get in- volved in hall activities is seldom Trying to keep their residents entertained while also making some money, most halls sponsored various dances, contests and games. Dances with themes-- such as the 50’s or the 60’s were popular. --photo by Terry Clark the reason students elect to go home. Most do so to see either a boyfriend or girlfriend, while Mom and Dad rank a distant second. Some go home for more devious reasons--to taste a home-cooked meal, to let Mom do the laundry, or to con Dad out of using the car for next quarter. For every student who gives Ball State the reputation of being a “suitcase college,” there is at least one who goes home infrequently, if at all.

The ever popular Family Fued game, pool tournaments, popcorn and pizza, stereos and packages from home. They are all part of residence hall living. There’s the people too. They are a part of dorm life. They study, party and get homesick. They come from many different backgrounds. They learn how to live together, or at least to tolerate each other. They create the atmosphere of the hall. It begins late in August. Students pack away summer memories and descend on Zayre’s during dollar days. Thousands of cars maneuver for marked parking spaces. Others make their own, using sidewalks, lawns or any empty space that might turn up. It’s ‘old hat’ to some students. They've learned the “tricks of the trade.” With grace and dexterity, they find an elusive parking place, move their milk crates, stereos and various other items into their rooms; wave good-bye to mom and dad and go off in search of old friends. “It was kind of neat to come back and know everybody,” said Kim Matlock, second year Wood hall resident. It’s mass confusion for the students moving into the dorm for the first time. They are bombarded with numbers to memorize: meal ticket, mail box, phone number, social security and most important With a clip and a snip, Julie Smith, Huntington freshman, makes short work of Tony Bell’s hair.

Meeting a new roommate, being away from home for the first time and facing the quick pace of college life can be a frightening experience for many new students. Hall coun- cils helped to acquaint students with residence hall life by helping them move into their halls and sponsoring activities such as ice cream socials and freshmen mixers. “Our main goal is to bring the halls together like a family unit,” said Monty Click, Woody Shales council secretary. Freshmen week brought the Woody women and ee 414 Halls Shales males together with volleyball games, a cookout and a dance. The event was mainly for freshmen, but was created for everybody to participate in. Other activities Woody Shales halls spon- sored during the year were a ski trip, Family Fued game and talent show. As overall winners of the Residence Hall division of Campus Chest in the fall, Mysch and Hurst halls held pajama and legs auc- tions, sold baked goods and pizza and showed movies to raise money. A popular event of the week was a staff soak. “They were throwing buckets of water at us,” said Rachel Brooks, director of Mysch. A trip to Pokegan State Park pro- vided a change of scenery for the “Knotty” ladies of Knotts Hall. Back at the dorm, coffeehouses, discos and an un-birthday party provided a change of pace. Knotts and Edwards halls went together to hold a spring dance, as well as a blood drive and a parents’ day. “We try to make the environ- ment as pleasing to our residents as possible,” said Dave Riccardi, stu- dent staff in Edwards.

Mothers and fathers were given the chance to see how their daughters lived when Brayton hall sponsored a family week. Nice weather in the fall and spring gave residents a chance to try out the new tandem bicycle the hall pur- chased. Pizza was popular during finals week as the hall councils of Brayton and Clevenger sold slices of pizza to hall residents. The halls also garnered first place for their Homecoming lawn decoration. Lit- 416 Halls tle kin weekends and a cookout were other activities held during the year. Clevenger men took off to In- dianapolis for a Pacers basketball game and plan to have more trips in the future. A highlight of the year for first floor residents was the installation of a new bathroom floor. In the fall of 1979, Kent Koerner, president of Howick hall, and Susan Taylor, Klipple hall’s social chairperson, put their heads together to come up with an event that everyone would like. An off- campus party was the result of this planning. “Howick and Klipple work pretty well together,” said Taylor. The men and women of Howick and Klipple halls also held a cof- feehouse, book exchange and Valentine’s dance during the year. An unofficial event was _ the retaliatory “panty raid” on Klipple by Howick. Howick and Klipple are located in Noyer complex and are popular because of their central location on campus. Baker and Williams are also located in Noyer complex.

Again, typewriter we have that works. I don’t have the words to say all I feel concerning the The Orient is a cruel mistress, demanding time, pa performance of each and every staff member, but I tience, and compromise at all times. However, I must. will say what I believe to be the truth--no editor has be the luckiest editor-in-chief the Orient has ever had. ever hada better staff than I've had this year. My staff and I have managed to sweat through the The design of the Orient this year is based primarily year with a minimum of problems (knock on wood), on simplicity. We run photos large in most areas and and as I compare this year to the previous two years { the copy is also large, creating beautiful simplicity spent on the staff, I have to say in all honesty that this without clutter or minute detail. year has been the most fun. To our readers, I hope you enjoy the 1980 edition of I didn’t write, photograph or design this book all the Orient, and I am sure you will open this book myself. One of the first lessons I learned two years ago many times in your life to remember the friends, the is that no one person can make a great book--it takes faces, and the places which were 1980 at Ball State the cooperation and_ collective imaginations of University --by Randy Abbott everyone on the staff. Four people in particular deserve much credit for this year’s performance. Pam Kiser, managing editor; Mark Records, business manager; Patricia Lighty, design editor, and Kim Fer- rill, photography editor deserve more thanks than I have room to write. The dedication, professionalism, and perservence of chief photographers William Vance and Tom Nemcik will surely mark the 1980 Orient as the best display of college photojournalism in any book of any year. My sincerest gratitude goes out to Marilyn Kimble, Orient adviser, for always being upstairs when I need- ed her and not being downstairs when I didn’t. Thanks go to Mark Popovich, department chairman and Louis Ingelhart, director of student publications, for allow- ing us the opportunity to complete another outstan- ding Orient.

Thousands of wet wooden chairs stood unsteadily in long rows across the muddy Arts Terrace Friday night. The wind and rain whipped and beat against the chairs, and the deluge made too-heavy pud- dles between the steel poles which supported a makeshift marquee designed to cover graduation day dignataries, to shade V.I.P. eyes from a glow- ing summer sun that would never shine the next day. Campus police kept a soggy vigil, guarding the chairs against some unknown vandal. The dark, the wind, the rain, and solitude were all the chairs would know as n ight turned to day and graduation commenc- ed in University Gym Saturday morning.
