The Administration Buildings doors are open, but its halls and offices aren 't jammed with lines of weary students waiting for loan checks, trying to register with unsigned class schedules or crowding the bulletin boards searching for the next quarters employment. he Arts Terrace is barren. Graduates who received diplomas there only three months before, amid the tears and cheers of thousands of parents, family and friends, WS may have long since nudged memories of ' Ball State to the backs of their minds. Residence halls stand empty. Gnly a few custodial personnel roam the corridors of Emens Auditorium. And University Gym only echoes the triumphs and defeats of just a small part of Car- dinal athletics. But in the air, something lingers. It rustles through every tree, around every building. lt's set- tling in once again. lt's taking its familiar place. And it will remain to carry each student through that first registration line to that final wait before graduation. It's a sense of purpose. lt's a deter- mination to succeed. lt's a Ball State of mind.

Eleven men competed in the annual event. Brad Sauter s residence hall doors were unlocked and students began filtering into assigned rooms with loads of belongings flanked by anxious parents, the Ball State campus once again found itself welcoming yet another year fill- ed with challenges. But the students and faculty, together, turn- ed that initial state of chaos and confusion into a state of commit- ment -- a Ball State of mind. And within the minds that made Ball State laid endless possibilities for creativity, achievement and success. Campus groups were busy even before classes began. The ac- tivities and parties scheduled for the Student Center, University Gym and LaFollette Field had to be the best of Ball State's first- week bashes yet, and entertaining enough to maintain student involvement throughout the year. Bruce Morgan, the Student Center's new director, had his work cut out for him as finding new ways to attract students became a major concern for him and his staff. One of the facility's dining areas, the Tally Ho, was renovated and building improvements opened the way for even more student service and entertain- ment. The majority of the dorms are at the other end of the cam- pus, Morgan said, That creates a problem as far as getting students in. We'll have to work at giving those who live in the residence halls a reason to come this far. Their jobs weren't complete until every possibility for improvement had been exhausted. New to the campus is the Robert P, Bell Building which became the new home for the English. computer science, and math depart- ments as well as the University Computer Services. The building was dedicated on former i President Robert P. Bell's birthday, Sept. 28.

Brad Sauter d exhaustion was a familiar word to most students whether the situation was academic or ex- tracurricular. They put their all into everything that demanded attention. Although defeat dominated the Cardinal football record, the undying spirit of Ball State fans was present at every home game -- and even at one that wasn't played in their own backyard. When the Red and White made its way to the Hoosier Dome in Indianapolis to face Indiana State University, the fans were there -- 15 buses full of them to be exact. But even a 34-6 defeat for the Cards couldn't dampen their spirits as sights were set on their team's next contest. The competition ran as high on campus as it did on the gridiron. lf students weren't rolling melons to the finish line at Delta Tau Delta fraternity's Watermelon Bust Festival or pulling their teammates to victory at Theta Chi fraternity's Tug-O-War, they were displaying poise and talent for the Miss Ball State Pageant crown or posing and flexing magnificent muscles for the Mr. and Ms. BSU bodybuilding title. When it came to being on top, they had the strength to get there -- even when it seemed close to impossible. oing for the goal the cheerleaders rally the crowd as the football team prepares to enter the stadium. john S. metzger 6 Opening 3 J, , 'l 'X' ' if ..,.N H ' ' . we ':t'f'f1-.

Eligibility requirements got tougher, but so did Ball State students. They turned out in full force for a financial aid presentation given by Congressman Phil Sharp, D-2nd District, and an address by former U.S. President Gerald Ford. Complaints were brought in- to the open and options for the future explored, bringing a state of exasperation to one of at least tolerance. While President Reagan was restricting federal education money, Greeks on campus were enforcing stricter pledge re- quirements. The lnter-Fraternity Council was set on improving the image of fraternity life and changes were being made. The Council decided that freshmen could not pledge till they had completed a full quarter with a minimum 2.0 grade point average. John Worthen made his own pledge to serve Ball State when the new president was inaugurated in November. The quality of Ball State's programs became his top priority. Changes were go- ing to occur among administrative processes as well but adding to existing facilities wasn't going to bring them about. President Worthen recognized Ball Stae's worth and, with his staff, set out to work on building from within its present strength. Students, faculty and staff had a starting point and the direc- tion and initiative to carry through with plans to better themselves and the University. The possibilities for a successful year were, indeed, endless. And the thought needed to make it succeed was there, too, but a tried and true Ball State of mind made it count. sr- F Q -4 D ll . . -, -1 Q . U 1 .

When note pads and No- Doze could no longer turn textbook knowledge into term paper material, they put their heads together to find a solu- tion. From Delta Tau Delta fraternity's Watermelon Bust to the campuswide Spring Sing, a much needed means of escape existed. Homecoming became the Greatest Show on Earth and Bike-A-Thon produced yet another victory for the indepen- dent team of Destiny cyclists, which has dominated the Delaware County Fairgrounds track since 1980. But idle hours weren't always filled with fun and games. Jody Moisan, Marion sophomore, spent days getting enough signatures on a petition that would keep campus shuttle buses off the administrative chopping block. Members of Beta Theta Pi fraternity conducted a self-study that removed their probationary status and put them back on the road to building a stronger, more responsible organization. They wanted excitement. They wanted change. And they didn't mind the work it took to get results. STATE OF MIND 'Quin -WF ' 1 , 9, ,t,i,,,, john S. metzger The sun's beams were often studied by students who designed outside classrooms to educate themselves on the finer things in life. Scott Baxter, Marion sophomore, was only one of many who warmed up to the idea. The beat of a different drummer was the theme song for many Ball State students who marched through their academic year with a newly-found state of mind. lt could be found on the field, on the stage and, ultimately, on the faces of Ball State's student populace. Campus Life Division 9 10 Polyark For them, it was more than one world away. It was a mixture of new and old, historical and technical, foreign and familiar. The languages were alien, the habits were diverse and the settings romantic. For the 25 people on Polyark VII, it was a study of people and the students were the strangers. At times it was uncomfortable, like in France and Italy where the language was a barrier, but for the most part everyone was friendly and helpful, said Rosemarie Carneiro, Indianapolis senior, remembering the frustra- tion of trying to communicate. Polyark VII, the residential and architectural field study tour group, was designed to expose students directly to different cultures and their architecture. But being alien didn't bother the group on its seven-week residen- tial stay in London or on the four- week tour of Europe, it was another world they adapted to and learned from. I learned more about myself and people during Polyark than at any point in my life, said David Cook, Speedway senior. He leaned back in the orange chair and con- tinued as he stared into space. It changed the way I think and look at people. It helped me mature. And it taught me to smile a lot. Smiling was something the en- tire group did as they deplaned in London from Chicago. Loaded down with the one piece of lug- gage they were allowed, camera equipment, translation books and an inch-thick itinerary, they boarded an underground train for the city. It was a culture shock for most of them, said J. Robert Taylor 7 I . '1 . ,i F it l al 'l Q When the 25-member Polyark crew packed their bags for the continental tour, they also opened the door to many new ex- periences.

Since the walk to the train was inside, they hadn't been outside since Chicago. Then, BAM! They were in London. But the shock didn't last long. After about a day of being with the people and a week of learning to get around, we pretty much felt as if we were from London, Carneiro said. Words like tube, and ale, fit into their vocabulary just as soon as they figured out the bloody ex- change rate and where the closest bus stops were located. During their residential stay in London, the students studied peo- ple by conducting impromptu in- terviews in the parks, on the tube and during everyday events. English people are very laid back, Taylor said as he swung his feet onto his desk. They take time out every day in the park and walk a lot. That's when I en- couraged the kids to talk with them, that way they could see the lifestyle and really get to know the people. Not only did they tour London and England talking to people and studying the architecture, but each student also did an in-depth study of some facet of foreign culture. Everyone kidded me because I continued M MU -Q 'gg,'-li.-L.,L4' - A p F5 1 . .. D1 .' ? ' 1 Jr H U, BJ.:-er-QL liluj 1' Q . . .

It's a meat market, with huge chunks of meat hanging on hooks and blood dripping from them. But no one else saw how beautiful that place really was at that time of day -- the time of day when it was meant to be seen and the time of day when the real people were there, he said. Cook's study became more than just another research paper. He formed a lasting friendship with the man who helped him on his project. When the two said good- bye, the fish monger gave Cook a pair of London city seal cuff links and a Bobby's honor tie tack to remember him by. I wanted to give him something, too, Cook said as he reached into his pants pocket. So I gave him a marble like this. Closely eying the small silver ball ringed with a gold band, he read its inscription. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Cook's gesture was only part of helping the members of Polyark VII form strong friendships. We went over there knowing a little about each other, Carneiro remembered with a smile. But now we're a tight-knit group. What went beyond the marble in making the group close were the trips across the continent and the events that took place during their stay. There were so many special moments, Taylor reminisced with hands folded behind his head. He was no longer in his homey of- fice in the College of Architecture and Planning, but wandering through Europe with his Polyark students. Jim Hurtubise catching a 25- pound codfish 30 inches long, the grin on Janet Gardner's face when she finished her first ski run on the Matterhorn, or picnicking with bread, wine and cheese on the banks of the Rhine, they were all special! UI do have a personal ex- perience which made Polyark special for me, Taylor continued as he kicked his feet off of his desk and slouched down in his chair. I began running this past year and while in Berlin, I did a mile on the Olympic track where Jesse Owens won the gold. It was great because no one was there and I could imagine what he must ,As direeforfof the Polyark- trip, J., Robert Taylor, arghitecture pro- fessor, was in-:charge of ferganip i.0.i1i2i1f!fp!Hhiiin9tthat-eight-Glivmry Exbggivsioh. Taylor Rakes a- short 'FBSQWIFUIE'wiitirilgffbfffhe'QKQUD, have felt like. For Carneiro, there were also a few personal, special times. The woman's cheeks flushed a deeper shade of red as she spoke of a side trip she and Tyler Haines, Leesburg senior, took in Italy. I've got family there, she confided as she leaned forward. My grandmother wrote a letter of introduction in Italian and Tyler and I went off to find them. It was neat. None of us knew the other's language, but we had a good time drinking red wine, eating and laughing. Humor had its place in the trip, despite the circumstances sur- rounding it. Outside the Vatican in Rome, Cook nearly lost his wallet when three young girls picked his pocket. He and his companions chased the girls for several blocks. I was scared at the time. Those girls had my wallet, and everything in it. We cornered them and kept yelling, Polica, Policaf' Just before they got away I grabbed one. She ran and I was left holding her sweater and bra, and my wallet, Cook said. While the group traveled a world away from its familiar sur- roundings, they were exposed to cultures and politics as diverse as the individuals they met. That was weird, Janet Gard- ner, Bloomington senior, said as she looked at a slide from the Berlin Wall. Despite being halfway around the world from West Germany, engraved on Gardner's memory was the cold- ness of looking into an alien political world. Standing up there on that scaffolding, she said as she pointed to the image projected on the white screen, Hit all seemed so stupid, locking people in like that. Visits to churches, abbeys and cathedrals also highlighted their tour of Europe. The high ceilings of St. Peter's Basilica in Rome and the stained glass work of Chartres Cathedral in Chartres, France were the group's favorites. But three months of experienc- ing the different worlds of Europe eventually had to come to a, close. After a farewell party dedicated to one of their favorite beers, Heineken, the 25 students made their way back to the United States. I didn't feel at home right away, Cook said. About a week after I got home I saw a travel section in a newspaper and all of a suddenl realized I had been to that place and now I was home. It seemed like a world away. For them, it was a world away. But it was also one in which they learned to live and love. No longer would they visit the meat market, ski on the Matterhorn or go cod fishing. But the friendships built would remain, as would the memories and understandings they had developed along the way.

Orientation gave freshmen to be ci hecicl stort I Nan My D I or Beneficence, it was just a matter of routine. Summer after summer, they came and stared at her as their fearless leader ex- plained about Benny's sacred lore. But for incoming freshmen, summer orientation was anything but routine. It would be their first taste of residence hall living, registration, and being away from home in the midst of many strangers. I'm not sure what brought me to BSU, said Mark Mikula, Ham- mond freshman, but the first day here was great. I looked at the campus when I got here and decided that I wanted to come here. I think it's the combination of the modern and the old. Although they were new, the orientation group already had a feel for college life. And like the BSU students that they were becoming, they too had com- plaints about the residence halls and their food. They voiced a unanimous Gagl whenever the subject of the University food was mentioned. But for others, the people and the campus location tipped the scales to the University's side. The representatives are very good here, said Jeff Spoljerh, Valparaiso freshman. The SOC leaders are real cheerful, and they really helped me feel at home. The Student Orientation Corps gave campus tours, guided the students through registration, and answered general questions. But for many freshmen, their SOC leaders' most important job was as their first Ball State friend. Still, a few students were nervous Demitrius Skalkotos, Muncie junior, asks Family Feud participants a survey question. Although the majority of the questions dealt with the campus and students, the game ended in a tie. about calling the campus home. 'tl was kind of scared to start school again somewhere new, said transfer student Jeannie Wilmot, Marion sophomore. You feel lost in a crowd. Others were already accustom- ed to Ball State. Jill Pine, Green- wood freshman, laughed and said, Well, I've been here before, but I think that orientation has been very informative. Chris Dorsey, Carmel fresh- man, agreed. The speakers for our majors are either scaring us with the facts or making us laugh at their jokes. But I've real- ly learned a lot. Freshmen weren't the only ones who were a little nervous and scared. Unknown to most of the freshmen, some of their SOC leaders had a case of the jitters as well. Now I know how the leaders feel, said SOC leader Stacie Roeder, Indianapolis junior. You're not quite sure whether they're going to like you or whether you'll do a good job. Freshmen weren't the SOC leaders' only audience. Many students brought their parents, who enjoyed the two-day visit as much as the students becoming familiar with campus life. Orientation is great, said Bill Lhuillier, father from Demotte. It's organized and the parents are well-informed. There weren't any questions that stumped the SOCs. Parents had Dave Willis, orien- tation's parent coordinator, to thank for not only showing them the campus, but also for coaching them when it came time to match wits with students in a game of Family Feud. In true Richard Dawson fashion, Demitrius Skalkotos, Muncie junior, insisted on giving the female participants their good luck kisses. After the formalities, the challenge was on. Students and parents sat behind a panel with bright red lightbulbs facing their peers and emcees. Both teams were asked questions about the popular spots on cam- pus, favorite beers, soap operas and student activities. The tension of the game mounted as the teams racked their brains for answers, fearing their time would be up, giving their opponents a chance to steal the points. With the aid of loud whispers from the audience drifting from the back of the room to the panel in front, team members excitedly shouted the answers. Just when it looked like the students might win, the parents cheered, That's alright, that's okay, if we don't win, we don't pay! But the students weren't so easily swayed. That's alright, that's okay, if we don't win, we don't stay! But the game ended in a tie, and Ball State ushered in yet another enthusiastic freshman class. But the visit was just get- ting off the ground. During the traditional orientation dance, the floor wasn't just filled with students, but their parents and SOC leaders as well. Everyone literally cut Footloose until the wee hours of the next morning, but no one had any regrets. It didn't bother me at all that we stayed up that late, said Janelle Lorenz, Lansing, Ill., freshman. I thought that it was really fun. But even as the group was checking out of the hall later that morning, other students and their families were pulling into the parking lot. And, across campus, Benny waited. She knew the routine by heart.5by Nancy Neff Orientation 15 16 Moving In ars jammed the curbs, jockeying for position like horses next to the inside rail. Campus police limited parking time and piles of belongings sprouted next to U-Hauls, pick-up trucks and station wagons. Some took off to find less- restricted parking places, some ' were left to guard the TV, the refrigerator and all the clothes while others headed toward the double doors and the registration table. All of them were moving in. The eager freshman and his parents were the most common arrivals on that first day, but for a few upperclassmen, getting away from home again was worth the hassle. My mother threatened my life when she saw all the stuff I was taking, said Missy Gordon, Fort Wayne senior. It took three carloads to get it all into a single. But it was really a day for the freshmen -- a day for those who had never been farther away from home than Grandma's house, for parents who had never had a child go away to college, for those who acted calm and collected although they had a trillion questions with no nswers in sight. All of these people were com- ing in -- my floor staff, my up- perclassman roommate, my Big Sister -- and I was just trying to get my bearings, said April Neth, Columbus freshman. I wanted my parents to leave so I could get things sorted out. I wanted to do it all myself. I just wanted to be on my own. It was a never-ending cycle. Cars pulling out, leaving heaps of stereos, clothes and milk crates like so many piles of leaves on an autumn lawn, were quickly replaced by others. Keys, rusty from a summer's rest, turned roughly when in- serted in locks and doorhinges opened reluctantly. Room colors and sizes weren't always greeted with a freshman's smile, but Mom was always quick to find the 'ii room's good points. . I Q And behind the scenes, o1l1ng the transition process as best they could, were the squads of student staff and hall directors, not to mention the hall officers. I was locked in the elevator for six hours because no one came to relieve me. I was getting claustrophobic, said Coleen Easterday, Fort Wayne junior. I never wanted to see a freshman again -- this one girl had all the luxuries: stereo, refrigerator, TV. I was jealous. But the smiles would reappear as the upperclassmen thought of the day they'd moved in and the hassle it had been. They could laugh now because it had been worth every minute. Doors were opening and rooms that had been empty during the long days of summer began to have life again. Voices echoed down the hallways and stereos began to shake the walls. And out in front of the hall, a station wagon slipped away from the curb to allow a van a place. It was time to make way for one more student and yet one more roomful of the absolute necessities. Eb y Angie Fullenkamp Saying goodbye was the hardest part of moving back to school. Some students found it difficult to leave not only family, but hometown sweethearts as well. john S. metzger possessions scattered the sidewalks as parents stood guard while students located room numbers and picked up keys. Flesidence halls weren't home but every effort was made to come as close as possible. Lack of space was a common problem for hall residents.

As two Delta Tau Delta fraterni- ty members swung open the heavy doors of the huge trailer truck, three others climbed inside, ready to start loading.

It never looks like there's that many until you start loadin' 'em. For the next four hours, the Delts packed up enough of the summertime favorite to feed and amuse over 4,500 students at their 13th annual Watermelon Bust Festival the next day, Sept. 22. The big pick up marked the end of over six months of planning for both the Delts and the event's co- sponsoring sorority, Alpha Chi Omega. We do the Bust to benefit cystic fibrosis and Big Brother of East Central Indiana, said Alpha Chi co-chairman Betsy Rickel, Muncie senior. But another thing we really want is for everyone to have a good time. And both objectives were achieved as the proceeds totaled over 34,000 and students took part in three watermelon-oriented relay races, clad in everything from diapers and bibs to cut-off thermal underwear and women's lingerie. Wearing only a silver-studded jean jacket and a pair of'men's designer underwear that resem- bled something straight from a Fredrick's of Hollywood catalog, Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity member Brian Holmes, In- dianapolis sophomore, waited for his team's name to be called over the loud speaker. I come to the Bust to drink and clown around, Holmes said. It's a big party before, during and after. Even though 128 teams com- peted for over four hours, WFBQ- FM's Bob and Tom, emcees for the games, made sure there was nothing dull or monotonous about the entire afternoon. After overcoming several un- controllable fits of laughter and surviving numerous wars with huge hunks of broken melons, Shales Happy Campers finished first in the men's residence hall category, followed by Williams and Howick. Brady Hall No. 1 took first in the women's category, Yo Babies came in second and the Brayton Melons in third. Delta Chi Bust Suckers nabbed the top fraternity position ahead of Sigma Phi Epsilon Steins in se- cond and Theta Xi No. 1 in third. Alpha Omicron Pi No. 1 was at the top of the list among sororities and Alpha Omicron Pi No. 2 took second. Sigma Kappa No. 1 and Sigma Kappa No. 4 tied for third. Brady Hall No. 1 gave the best overall performance, Alpha Omicron Pi walked away with the spirit award and The Brews Brothers had created the best costumes out of styrofoam beer can holders and plastic tubing. The beer holders were attatched to the hats with a piece of tubing long enough to reach their . mouths. Although only one team could be named as the best dressed, everyone had his reasons for continued Watermelon Bust 19 'X A melon folly dciy continued wearing what they did. We've always wanted to be women, laughed Jim Dale, In- dianapolis senior and a member of The Incredibly Indiscreet, In- destructible Quiefs team. It isn't that we're homosexual or any- thing. We just like the negligeesj' he said as he grabbed the silky hem of his peach chiffon nightgown and twirled away into the crowd. Even though no two outfits were alike, other Bust participants had more serious motives behind what they pulled from their closets that morning. The five queen contest finalists and their escorts were decked to the hilt in white formal gowns and tuxedos. Kappa Alpha Theta sorority member Cindi Culler, Anderson junior, was crowned queen of the festival after judges announced the results from penny voting con- ducted earlier in the week. Debbie Baldwin, Alpha Phi sorority, was first runner-upg Jena Richie, Alpha Omicron Pi sorority, was third, and Janet Thomas, Delta Delta Delta sorority, received fourth. Culler said she was not only honored, but surprised. It takes so much to get there, she said. Not only do you need everyone in your chapter behind you but also a majority of the campus. It makes me proud to know they were there and to know that I was able to make it on my own through the interviews. But even when the games end- ed, the fervor of the afternoon continued as the crowd cleared LaFollette Field just long enough to get home, shower and perhaps eat before the evening concert began. Those bands eager for exposure to a college-aged audience includ- ed Lynx, who rocked milling Bust crowds all afternoon by sail- ing through many of their own renditions of popular chart hits and some of their own work. Locker and The Blue Hues and the Extremes lit up the evening line-up, entertaining about 1,000 students back on the field and ready for more of a good The first evening band was pretty bad, they forgot the words three times, said Lisa Lynch, Allentown, Pa., freshman.

On the other side of the gym, Dr. Jim Marine, director of Student Programs, waited to receive the ball while a crowd of residence hall teams and their colorful mascots sat watching ex- pectantly. Lori Wean, general chairman of the Homecoming Steering Com- mittee, held in her hands the ball that would begin the first event of the Greatest Show on Earth -- the Residence Hall Kick-Off Games. They set the tone for the rest of the week as 10 residence hall teams crawled through red, white and blue striped hula hoops, shrugged into and out of clown outfits that didn't match and walked heel to toe on an im- aginary tightrope while carrying umbrellas. They were headed toward the bright, golden trophies that lined the victory table on stage. For me it was a way to release a lot of energy, said April Neth, Columbus freshman and Botsford Hall team mascot. It was a fun way to get crazy without getting in trouble for it.

Standing almost shoulder to shoulder, over 1,200 Ball State Cardinal fans kicked their shoes into the grass around them, step- ped onto 165 Twister game mats that had been taped together and got ready to set a new record for the most people playing the game at one time. Right foot, green! shouted University President John Wor- then to open the competition. A sea of legs shifted quickly to the left as players battled for the green spaces not already taken. Left hand, blue! President Worthen yelled again -- a quick shift to the right. But the twisting had barely gotten started when a couple of speakers short-circuited.

Over 1,200 students played at once on 165 mats, tzigeaalking Colgate University's record of But then came the announce- ment that everyone heard. Ball State had broken the record for the most people playing Twister at one time set by Colgate Univer- sity in New York. Over 1,200 Ball State students had been recorded as actual players, well above Colgate's old record of 1,130. As a huge roar of applause rose from the crowd, the Cardinal cheerleaders, Charlie Cardinal and the Cardettes stepped centerstage to conduct a pep rally that could be heard from Botsford Hall to the Scramble Light. But the spotlight didn't miss the purpose of the entire evening as Head Football Coach Dwight Wallace took command of the microphone to introduce his players. Although a 1-3 season record hadn't quite gotten Ball State on the right track going into the Homecoming game, Wallace predicted the beginning of a win- ning streak that wasn't going to end when they went up against the Kent State Golden Flashes on Saturday. We've got a lot of good guys playing for us and we want to know if you're all going to come out to the stadium and support us? Wallace asked the anxious crowd before him. When the chanting and cheering died down, Wallace recognized each team member, and then once again urged students to go to the game and back the Cardinals. As one of the cheerleaders fell from the top of the squad's last pyramid into the arms of her partner below, the crowd began to filter across LaFol1ette Field toward the massive bonfire that had just been lit. Some sat on the small rise in the middle of the field, just far enough away from the heat and smoke. Others began to straggle home to unopened textbooks and alarm clocks set for 7 a.m. The fun and games were over for the 1 night, but Ball State had what it Q needed.

Homecoming 23 i I i 1 l i The greatest show on earth continued The excitement of the night's games was a thread that con- nected each Homecoming event throughout the week. Spectators crowded against the ropes that lined the sidewalks of McKinley Avenue Wednesday afternoon. Heads turned simultaneously to follow two beds being pulled furiously down the bumpy road. With bathrobes flapping around pumping legs, Sigma Chi Sigs crossed the finish line in front of Whitcraft Bed Company to cap- ture the overall title in the men's division. Later in the afternoon, with facial cream running down their faces, Swinford No. 2 receiv- ed the Best Dressed Award in the men's division. The Peanuts were given the women's Best Dressed Award. Students were at no loss for such outstanding performances throughout the entire week. Those that made it past auditions presented the Ball State and Mun- cie communities with the authen- tic, true-to-life, comedy-talent show Join the Circus. Singing and dancing per- formances, jugglers and acrobats, and clowns and unicyclists un- covered all the marvels under the Big Top before about 1,500 wide- eyed spectators.

His piano player was in tails, but no one was getting married.

Sawyer Brown, a pop-sounding, country and western-style band, was quickly on the audience's l grad Sautgr good side when they stormed Emens Auditorium with their first song, Comin' Back to Indiana. About 1,500 members of Ball State and the Muncie community were off to a knee-slappin', hand- clappin' good time. Not only could Sawyer Brown make their listeners feel almost like a part of their music with some of their original upbeat, locomotive-sounding songs, but they also had the knack for set- ting a more comfortable and relaxing mood with mellow rhythm and blues tunes and raspy balfads done in harmony. But the band's popularity wasn't completely unexpected since its members had had quite a few opportunities for exposure before their Homecoming ap- pearance. More than once Sawyer Brown gave award-winning per- formances on television's Star Search, hosted by The Tonight Show's Ed McMahon. They had also performed in concert with Tammy Wynette, Jerry Reed, Kenny Loggins and Dr. Hook and had just finished planning their next tour as the opening band for Kenny Rogers. They definitely weren't strangers to the stage.

For only the second time since 1954, the stadium wasn't fill- ed. The Cardinals gave the Kent State Golden Flashes their first road victory in three years with a 15-10 loss before a sparse crowd of less than 10,000. The Cards were first to strike after Kent State tailback Derrick Nix fumbled on the Ball State 42- yard line. Behind sophomore run- ning backs Jay Neal, Yorktown, and Burt Austin, Indianapolis, BSU moved the ball into position for a 27-yard field goal by John Dietrich, Fort Wayne sophomore. But turnovers plagued Cardinal quarterbacks, as they had all season, allowing one Kent State touchdown and in the fourth quarter, a field goal. However, the day ended on some rather pleasant notes -- those of Glen Campbell and Sawyer Brown in concert at Emens.

Homecoming 27 Dr. James Marine, Student Programs director, unveils the Student Voluntary Services' new logo before SVS volunteers Ann Whitsel, Muncie graduate student, and Tana Myers, Noblesvillesenior. To raise money so that SVS could buy a new van, A.J. Spoerner, Munster senior, ran 22 miles and walked three around the West Quad track. The van would allow the volunteers a much more convenient mode of travel.

The four were on their way to Indianapolis while the majority of other students were on their way to class and unconcerned or unknowledgeable about Student Voluntary Services. I think a lot of people don't know what SVS is, said Marita Tolle, Windfall sophomore and 28 SVS Volunteers Pendleton State Prison volunteer. I've had criminal justice classes and I learned about SVS through them. Leslie Bawmhower, South Bend junior, agreed with Tolle and add- ed that if it hadn't been for her counseling professors encourag- ing her and her classmates to par- ticipate in SVS, she never would have known about it. The only time we hear about SVS is during Campus Chest, said Bawmhower, Indiana Boys School volunteer. In counseling classes they say that we should get involved with SVS. But if so- Arts and crafts were only a few of the activities SVS volunteers supervised at the Indiana School for the Deaf in ln- dianapolis. Annette Sage, indianapolis junior, measures out yarn for one of the school's students. Brad Sauter meone hadn't shown me where the SVS house was, I certainly wouldn't have known. Hoping to resolve the problem, SVS unveiled its new logo during SVS Week Winter Quarter. Replacing the large red S join- ing the words student and ser- vices was a red, open heart shape with an arrow at the end pointing in to Student Voluntary Ser- vices. The service also showed slides of its volunteers and the institu- tions they had served during the past year. The main purpose of SVS Week is to recognize the volunteers, said SVS Week co- coordinator Tonja Weaver, Ninevah sophomore. The leaders all sent out 'thank you' notes and put personals in the Daily News for them. For the new volunteers, that was enough. I love it, said Audry Schweier, Zionsville junior. I feel volunteering is important and it gives me a sense of satisfaction. I guess it's just that I wanted to spend some time doing things with and for others, so I called SVS. I now work with the deaf school, Schweier added. We just walk in and work with the kids. Each time April Neth, Colum- bus freshman, went to the school, she found something unexpected and surprising. It's interesting, she said. I'd always thought that a deaf school would be quiet. But it's not. The kids go running around scream- ing. But they don't know they're screaming. As if on cue, two little girls, earlier engrossed in dipping their fingers in paint and drawing pic- tures, quickly discarded their ar- tistic talents when they recogniz- ed the four volunteers and pro- ceeded to scream their greetings. The volunteers were only allow- ed to work with the children for 30 to 45 minutes on arts and crafts, after which the children went to bed. For the time spent with the children, the volunteers were ex- W pected to know a little sign language. When you first go there, you get one sign, so they don't have to spell out your name, explained Annette Sage, Indianapolis junior. Sometimes the kids know we don't understand. They're only first graders and first graders don't know very many words, so you can't expect them to know all of the signs. The project for the evening was weaving. Sitting at the round tables in the small room, the children worked earnestly while playing a mild game of tag and teasing one another with the col- ors each had chosen. One boy, teased because his creation was pink, quickly changed colors to white and haughtily stuck his tongue out at his taunter. After only a 20-minute session, the volunteers had to say good- bye and assured the children the project could wait until the next time. But student volunteers didn't just help or teach a craft, they learned just as much as the children did. The first minute as a volunteer is really difficult, said Bawmhower. But it's also rewar- ding. I think I learn more from them than they learn from me.

' -Connie Johnson, Shelbyville, sophomore stand Little Mudhorn eady to do battle in Theta X1 fraternity's annual Tug-O-War, team members from fraternities, sororities and residence halls gathered around a rectangular pit of slimy, gooey mud. Dressed in their most ragged pairs of sweats, worst faded jeans and oldest t-shirts, some of the participants had already been doused, while others anxiously awaited the start of the event. But some just couldn't wait as they screamed, We've got mud! and not only threw the closest bystander into the jello- like mass, but jumped in willingly themselves, emerging from the slippery gunk completely covered with mud from their hair to the insides of their shoes. As soon as the teams took their places on either side of the pit, the starting signal was given. But despite their efforts, everyone knew there had to be a loser. For some, it was only a matter of deciding whether it would be head first or feet first. It's fun, said Connie Johnson, Shelbyville sophomore, as she at- tempted to wash the mud off. You don't even think about it. You don't even know you've lost the game. You just think to yourself, 'Oh, no! Mud! ' After hundreds had been pulled through the muck, a Theta Xi brother decided if he had to go, he was going in style as he toboggan- ed face down completely across the muddy gap, coming up only when he needed air. While tournament officials centered the rope, contenders switched their interests from the pit to such musical entertainment as Madonna's Lucky Star. But those not engrossed in the music were busy carrying friends to the pit or being dragged to the goop themselves. I enjoy the spirit, the ecstasy of winning, said Walter Craig, South Whitley freshman. And also the joy it brings me when I get up and have to wipe the mud off of myself later, he added, a bit sarcastically. Many of the muddied par- ticipants used the nearby water pump to clean themselves off. But when they had finished, it only gave their attackers another reason to ruin the effect and many of the victims couldn't have cared less. Pm here just to roll around in the mud, laughed Beth Adkins, Indianapolis freshman, even though I wish we could have won. I can't wait until next year. Maybe then I'll know not to wear sweats. Some competitors were prepared for the opposition from the start and bounced the rope up and down in unison as the crowd cheered, Tug, tug, tug! Others were caught off guard, faltered in their stance and quickly slid into the ankle-deep slime as expres- sions of disbelief and howls of dismay disappeared under a thick, brown blanket of soggy earth. There wasn't even mercy for those who let go of the rope early as they too were soon wallowing in the mud with their teammates thanks to the help of other par- ticipants or those attending mere- ly as spectators. I came to support my sorori- ty, said Swatee Desai, In- dianapolis sophomore. It's for a good cause. If they need me, they know that all they have to do is come and get me.

Team members teetered on the edges of the pit, threw up their arms and gave in to the suction of the quicksand-like mix- ture. Determination to get down but not dir- ty showed through the barred teeth and squinted eyes of Tug-O-War team par- ticipants. But as the afternoon wore on, cleanliness became a hopeless cause as tired arms and rope-burned hands began to give in to the strain of competition. 32 Tug-O-War 1 ,,' y .,...-. ,a ' H' f' f i .i 5-.-if ' I ,M Rocky Rothn A coat of mud ls the only reward 1 tuggers who hold on to the end of tht Tug-O-War struggle before falling in the inevitable pit of goo.

The crowd and the teams willingly did just as the rock group advised -- they went crazy. But the craziness didn't end when the song was over. Mud-stiff mohawks, bull-and unicorn-like horns and even dried mud spikes sticking out in all directions became the latest fashions as the newest wave hairstyles came into being. No one was at a loss for creativity. Mud pies filled the air. The pit became the neighborhood pool as belly flops hit the squishy slime with Olympic style. Others simply laid flat on their backs and made mud angels. As the tournament began once again, losing teams slipped and slid attempting to escape the pit, but fell right back in. Some even had problems standing up in the slime. They helplessly shrugged and held out their hands to others for help in getting up only to drag an unsuspecting bystander down again with them. A few participants were lucky enough to stay away from the more avid Tug-O-War players, but their cleanliness didn't last long. Everybody pushed everyone else in and I ran away after I pushed someone in, said Kathy Bond, Pendleton junior. Then they came around after me when they got out of the pit because I didn't get dirty, and took mud pies and wiped them all over my face and hair. Between competitions, team members once again took a break as the mud tobogganer went sail- ing through the thick, brown sea to the other side of the pit for an encore. But when he pulled himself up from the ground, he added to his act as he turned to the nearest person for a somewhat messy victory hug. The day's punishment didn't go without recognition, however. The Wagundas took first place in the men's division and the Tasmanian Steamrollers grabbed first place in the women's division. Sigma Tau Gamma fraternity and Alpha Sigma Alpha sorority both walked away with spirit awards. But by the time observers and team members left the scene of the battle zone behind and headed for home and a long shower, hard- ly a body remained untouched by the day's fun and games.

X . john S. metzger he reached the bottom step, opened the door, and stood there. Looking to her left and right, she shrugged, decided to chance it and turned to the left. She knew she had made the right choice when the loud laughter and screams of affectionate greetings from her pledge sisters reached her ears. The repetitious Oh, Hi! was all she could really pick out from the babble until she was in the doorway. She hesitated there as if she didn't know what to do or as if waiting to be introduced, she wasn't quite sure. But before she had time to decide, her pledge sisters all turn- ed in unison and greeted her with the affectionate Oh, Hi! that she had heard down the hall, some sisters even jumping out of their seats to give her a hug. She took her assigned seat, ready to greet others as she had been greeted. She could hardly believe that this was her first pledge meeting. It seemed like only a few days ago that she had left her room for her first Rush party. Up and down the hall, doors were slamming, keys rattling in the locks almost as if the fire alarm had just rang. But this was much different. The women ner- vously chattered as they would during a drill, but they were dressed in their Sunday best. Below, women streamed out of the building, leaving the last few running to catch up. The clusters were like beads on a string, ar- ranged in twos and threes that moved inch by inch toward their hopefully long-term destination: the sorority suites. I think that when they come into the general meeting before Rush, the Panhellenic tells them there is a possibility that they might not get invited back, said Rho Chi Kim Buckman, Cincin- nati sophomore. They know when they see the requirements. lfa sorority didn 't ask me back, I don 't think it would have been right for me anyway. -Lory Bahney, Monticello freshman he suite decision Sorority rush cu matter of choice It's easier to tell a woman when her grades aren't good enough. But it's hard to face a woman to tell her she didn't get the sorority she wanted. The Rho Chis were women selected from each of the sororities to help rushees by guiding them to the suites, answering questions and playing Mom. They're like your kids, said Buckman, They'll tell you about their boyfriends and problems. Personally, it tears me apart, said Rho Chi Kathy Leimer, Alex- andria junior. Thirty girls didn't get invited back after the first Rush party. The Rho Chis estimated that of the 450 rushees, only about 300 were accepted. Some women in the hall have said that if they got double cut they'd be so embarrassed that they'd transfer to another school or just go home, said Lory Bahney, Monticello freshman. I'm not that serious about it. If a sorority didn't ask me back, I don't think it would have been right for me anyway. The atmosphere outside the heavy wooden door was tense. The women chattered nervously, and cast sidelong glances at each other, as if sizing up the competi- tion. But once the door was open- ed, they didn't worry about anything but themselves and meeting the sisters, those impor- tant first impressions that could make all their sorority hopes come alive. The sisters wore their matching red suits and dark heels. They sat on the arms of chairs and couches, talking to the rushees as if they'd known them all their lives. And the rushees responded the same way. So the impressions were made and the sisters made their choices, as did the rushees. If they liked her and she liked them, continued .f N,..o john S. metzger Lori Bahney, Monticello freshman, secretly votes for her pledge officers at Alpha Chi Omega sorority's first pledge meeting.

They wouldn't be going to any parties that night. My Rho Chi called and inform- ed me that it was nothing per- sonal, just my grades, said Beth Cooley, Batesville sophomore. I was upset by the fact that I wasn't accepted just as a person and that my grades were more important to them. Meanwhile, the lucky ones prepared to go out. The sisters were all dressed up -- some as clowns, some as tin soldiers, some as fairies, said Bahney about the final parties. They paired us up and we ate cake and had punch. The really weird thing was that they put me with a sister I hadn't met before. I've heard that a lot of times that sister eventually becomes your 'big sis'. Sometimes if some of the sisters have been talking about you and one of them hasn't met you, then they'll pair you with her, which is a good idea, Bahney added. But if they just put me with a nobody because they weren't going to pick me anyway, that'd be really bad. Between the final parties and pledge night, the rushees were in silence. They could not talk to any sorority sisters except if they were roommates or blood sisters. That night finally arrived and their silence was broken. As the rushees came in, they almost skipped, almost ran. They greeted their fellow rushees with bear 36 Sorority Hush hugs and excited screams. In their impatience, they stomped the wooden floor, often while still embracing. When the time came for them to sit down, they did not quiet down. They were too excited, they had waited too long for this moment. I would like to welcome you to pledge night, said Judy Abrahamson, assistant director of Student Activities, but her last words were drowned in the sud- den roar of stomping feet, clapp- ing hands and screaming voices. Although throughout Rush the Rho Chis disaffiliated themselves from their sororities, the rushees were convinced they had figured out who belonged where. It was a tradition to reveal their identities at pledge night. As the Rho Chis appeared on stage according to sorority, the groups would jump up, screaming and waving. When all were stan- ding-'rliey began to chant Rho Chi, Rho Chi. In their hands the Rho Chis held the rushees' hopes -- the envelopes. The room was mass chaos -- women reaching around and over each other for their envelopes, tearing them open and screaming loudly, throwing their arms around the nearest woman. Some began to cry. They began to sort themselves out. Women who knew friends that had preferenced for the same sorority looked for each other, and jumped up and down while exchanging hugs after they had compared envelopes. Arms around each other, they slowly began to move toward the ballroom where they would meet their pledge trainer. But some re- mained behind. One woman sat with her head bent, tears running her mascara. Rho Chis sat on either side, their arms placed over her shoulders. But there was nothing they could say. She didn't get her first choice. Outside the ballroom, the women were waiting to be let in. Inside the ballroom waited their pledge trainers with their sorority flags and banners. They, too, were anxiously awaiting the open- ing of the doors. When the doors were opened, they poured into the room as if the string of beads had come un- done. The women rushed to their sororities and hugged the first woman they saw. It was finally over -- they were sisters. The snapping of her sisters' fingers brought the woman back to the present. She was finally here, in her very first pledge meeting. You must remember that you're in our sorority, her pledge trainer was saying. And we are glad that you are our sisters.

H t, I il' ' I, '. ,H ' ,QS ' ' W' is , ' ' ' ' , ' ' lthough to many students fall Rush meant meeting people and attending the usual parties, for the Interfraternity Council and two campus fraternities it meant a chance to create new images. Rush gave Beta Theta Pi an op- portunity to re-establish a good reputation. The fraternity con- ducted its first Rush since it was put on probation for hazing viola- tions in March, 1984, by its na- tional chapter. According to John Schaller, Muncie senior and Beta president, their status was upgraded from probationary to review after members presented a self-study report to the national convention. A lot of changes have come from within our own house, I think that has really been the key, Schaller said. Our pledge program's shorter now and we've changed our GPA for pledging from 2.2 to 2.5. We took 17 guys during Rush. I think we're back on track. While the Betas adjusted to changes in policy, the seeds of a new fraternity were just beginn- ing to blossom. With such ac- tivities as a scavenger hunt, Sigma Pi fraternity went through its first fall Rush. Kelly Crause, Sullivan, Ill., senior, said that the fraternity got its start when he and Scott Porter, Winchester junior, spotted each other wearing Sigma Pi garb they had acquired as members of Sigma Pi chapters on other cam- puses. They talked about the old days and decided to try and start a chapter. We ran across two other ac- tives who had transferred from other schools, Crause said. We organized, elected officers and colonized. I had a lot of doubts at first, he added. We got criticized by other Greeks and independents. 'Are you really going to do this?' they asked. They respect us now for what we've accomplished. Sigma Pi's success in establishing a chapter continued as the fraternity pledged 15 men and it was done without an official fraternity house. We used a house that several brothers were living in, Crause said, so it really didn't hurt our pledging not to have an official house. While the Betas were getting it back together and the Sigma Pi's were laying some groundwork, the IFC was working to revamp the overall fraternity system. There's been a stereotype that partiers and boozers are the ones who join the fraternities, said IFC president Mike Burrow, Greenfield senior. But I feel we have changed that image. He said that the IFC and the fraternities tried to mold a new image by providing new Rush rules. Fraternities could only have two functions with alcohol and these were to be held only during the final week of Rush. Also, the parties on weeknights were to be over by midnight. I kind of knew what to expect because I knew a couple of guys in the fraternities last year, said Andy Bowman, an Indianapolis sophomore pledging Delta Chi fraternity. Overall, I think Rush continued Fraternity Rush 39 Prospective pledges watch Delta Tau Delta fraternity's slide show. Activities ranging from simple information ses- sions to luaus were scheduled during Rush to draw freshmen and other cam- pus newcomers. john S. metzger The guest book fills rapidly and pam- phlets disappeared quickly during an in- formation session at the Delta Tau Delta fraternity house. 40 Fraternity Rush Kowalski, South Bend senior, lines LaFollette Field for competition in Delta Tau Delta fraternity's Watermelon Bust. The annual event was often the first taste freshmen and other prospec- tive pledges had of Greek life. Dale Westrate Room for improvement continued was done pretty well. The new rules were expected to have some effect on how many men would pledge, and the IFC spent more on advertising than ever before to counteract any negative effects. The changes in the rules were made because of things that hap- pened last year, Burrow said. We felt there was a need to pro- mote the Greek system positively in lieu of last year's adverse publicity from hazing and bad grades. Nevertheless, fraternities only pledged about 300 new members, considerably fewer than the estimated 600 last year, according to Burrow. And as it turned out, the new rules didn't prevent pledges in one third of the Rush programs from earning less than a 2.0 aggregate grade-point average during Fall Quarter. In December the IFC voted 14-1 to defer the freshman Rush pro- gram until Winter Quarter in the future in an attempt to improve the academic standing of the fraternities. A new rule would also require freshmen to earn 12 hours before entering a Rush pro- gram. We have to recognize our problemsg and I feel we have dealt with it very effectively, Burrow said. The IFC passed the proposal despite opposition from national chapters, including the National Interfraternity Conference, but most fraternity leaders could see good and bad points in the new system. It gives the freshman a chance to get their foot in the door, said Delta Tau Delta president John Duncan, Muncie senior. It also will take a lot of pressure off the members since Fall Quarter is, so busy. Sigma Tau Gamma president Jim Ingelhart, Muncie senior, said problems could still arise during the Fall Quarter Rush pro- gramming that would continue for upperclassmen. The fraternities could still have big parties used to influence the freshmen, said Ingelhart. The initial success of Beta Theta Pi, the new fraternity Sigma Pi, and the IFC in making some changes in the fraternity system was tarnished when, prompted by bad grades in the fraternities, IFC voted for a defer- red Rush program and a GPA re- quirement for pledges. Perhaps their rules and resolu- tions for a better year had not been enough. Perhaps it was simply bad luck. Perhaps it was for the best. It was just another obstacle to overcome on the road to a better Greek system.Eby Angie Fullenkamp and Eric MacDougal1 Fraternity Flush 41 After Alpha Tau Omega fraternity lost the Muscle Madness Crabwalk Cageball tip-off to Sigma Chi fraternity's Todd Beckley, Walton sophomore, the fight was on.

But for its first year, Sigma Kap- pa sororityls Muscle Madness entertained mild success as the male counterpart to Sigma Chi fraternity's Derby Days. Derby Days are for the women and we wanted a similar event for the guys, said Sigma Kappa member Tana Myers, Carmel senior. The purpose of the games is for the guys to have fun. Although having fun was the main reason for entering the con- tests, members of the six com- peting fraternities had no idea of what the rules of each game would entail at the time they entered. The Sigma Kappas revealed nothing but the names of each game to the particpants until just before each race. It looks like fun, said Sigma Chi Doug Blaase, Greenwood senior, as he and his teammates listened to the rules for the obstacle course. I've run a lot of courses like these before. We've still got time to back out if we don't think we can handle it.

Sig Ep Bones took second, and Delta Chi frater- nity was third. For most participants, the only really difficult part of the course was walking the beam after they had circled a bat five times holding it upright on the ground with their foreheads. It's pretty fun, said Delta Tau Delta fraternity member Steve Pruitt, Indianapolis freshman. After the bat, though, I cou1dn't get through the board. It was worse than being drunk. The race is fairly easy overall, but the bat and the balance beam are killers. Tug-O-War on a Slip-n-Slide water game coated with oil and water, cageball crabwalk-style, a wheelbarrel race with blindfolded wheelbarrel drivers and a hot dog eating contest rounded out a busy and competitive Saturday after- noon forthe greek organizations. In the Tug-O-War, points rather than places were awarded because teams on one side were consistently winning. Lambda Chi's took first in cageball, with Delta Chi and Alpha Tau Omega fraternity following in second and third. In the hot dog eating con- test, Delta Chi chowed their way to first place, but the Sig Ep Steins and the Delts gulped close behind. Delta Chi steered their way to another first in the wheelbarrow race, with Lambda Chi and the Sig Ep Bones in se- cond and third. And the overall winners of the afternoon's con- tests were the Lambda Chi's, l l r l l l Delta Chi's and the Delts.

We tried to think of things that required mus- cle, but are fun at the same time. Hopefully, the event will be pass- ed by word of mouth and even get the GDIs, more fraternities and other sororities involved. Muscle Madness wasn't without its nobility..Demetrius Skalkotos, Muncie Junior, was crowned first king of the new event through penny voting on campus the week before. Even though Muscle Madness was sponsored with little money to work with, Myers said the event would be an affordable and worthwhile addition to the sorori- ty's other philanthropics since Sigma Kappa didn't have a cam- pus function for their main pro- ject, the Alpha Center. Through entry fee profits and those from other fundraisers, the Sigma Kap- pas were able to make a S250 donation to the center. We did it on a real tight budget, Myers said. We sold puzzles, paid about S100 dollars on games, borrowed some equipment and had one of the sisters as an emceef' But despite the small budget and turnout, the Sigma Kappas were confident that they would build on the event in the future.

It was hilarious to watch, said Chi Omega pledge Shawny Anderson, Madison junior. Girls who are usually so prissy and sweet were trying to knock each other's blocks off. The girls, supplied with helmet, plastic pants and a pillow, tried to maintain their seating astride a telephone pole greased with vegetable oil. Neither one of us would budge, said Kappa Theta Nancy Garrett, Muncie senior. We just kept hitting each other and laughing. Even though Friday night's ac- tivities were topped off by a par- ty, the sororities and the Sigma Chi brothers were back on Satur- day to conclude the week with day-long games and a non- alcoholic party. A crowd of 150, sporting the of- ficial Derby Days t-shirt with shorts and sweats, gathered to watch or participate in such tradi- tional games as the Egg Drop, or to just listen to the music and have fun. It was great just to be thrown in with the other sororities, said Anderson, and to spend time laughing together instead of try- ing to be the best.

It proved to be a Fan- tastic Voyage indeed as par- ticipants of Campus Chest and its steering committee raised over 59,000 through activities which ranged from a treasure hunt to a dance marathon to hall and Greek auctions. The idea of a campuswide fund raiser for charitable causes was first put to the test in 1945 as a war effort, but Ball State is one of the few campuses where it is still successful today. With campus and community organizations such as Student Voluntary Services, Alpha Center and Gateway Health Clinic depen- ding on money raised through Campus Chest activities, students kept going, many nights without sleep, so as not to let these ser- vice groups down. By far the biggest money raiser, the greek auction raised 53,320 But as the announcer led the bidding he also charmed the ladies declaring, I think those kisses and champagne were in- tended for the Alpha Chis,'l when Alpha Chi Omega failed to bid for the Sigma Alpha Epsilon wedding party. But failure was far from the minds of the men of Sigma Tau Gamma fraternity when it came time for their Bananarama Party. Five men dressed as bananas opened the show by throwing bun- ches of bananas into the audience while promising banana daquiris, banana fondue and frozen bananas to the highest bidders. 46 Campus Chest I Greek auction was held in the Student Center Ballroon with 18 1 fraternities and sororities spon- soring over 30 parties. It didn't all go smoothly though. Alpha Tau Omega and the Delt's had to fight it out with their checking ac- counts over Sigma Kappa's S 81 M party.

Overall fraternity winner was Delta Chi and overall sorority winner was Sigma Kappa. Sigma Phi Epsilon Chesters won the Chesters contest by soliciting money at the scramble light dressed in ballerina costumes and acting crazy. The annual Chesters and Chest King voting brought in money throughout the week. Alpha Chi Omega's lyreman Demetrius Skalkatos, Muncie junior, was crowned Chest King.

For the second year in a row, Wagoner Ha1l's Le Jam took first place as they professionally imitated The Bird. Other activities included the SCPB's World's Worst Film Festival and the first ever Treasure Hunt. A suitable end to the week's events came with the dance marathon in which seven couples kept each other fired up and danc- ing for 17 hours. Toni Purvis, In- dianapolis junior, won a full tui- tion scholarship by bringing in close to 5300. Making up for the small number of actual marathon dancers, students packed the Stu- dent Center's Tally Ho later that night to hear the two winning air bands perform again. The marathon, and the week, ended with Campus Chest members hug- ging and dancing to New York, New York. But yet more work remained. Funding allocations still had to be made to requesting organizations. With 75 percent of the money go- ing to campus groups, Student Foundation received the largest amount of 51,600. Alpha Center, Aquarius House and the Mental Health Association were among the community organizations which received 52,700 from the fundraiser. The week was over and the deadline had been met.

Monday's traditional event, Splish Splash, drew 5 teams and 15 spectators to Lewellen Pool. The air was heavy with the smell of chlorine as four-member teams struggled for four game trophies. The team members whispered conspiratorially as they planned strategy before each event. Backstroke, said Mike Loc- chetta, Noblesville sophomore, ducking his head close to a team member as he prepared for the first leg of the medley obstacle race. As the judges tallied final scores, the committee and team members collected the 1,000 ping pong balls they had dumped into the clear blue water for the ping pong ball hunt, the last event. Cheers echoed across the pool as the Painter-Whitcraft Penguins were awarded first in the coed division and the Clevenger Crawdads and Shales Hall were awarded first and second, respec- tively, in the men's division. The Crawdads also won the spirit award. You can go home tonight and sleep well, said the Crawdads' coach Sean Campbell, Fort Wayne freshman. I, for one, am proud of you. Housekeepers who came to work Tuesday were surprised to find their carts and service elevators decorated and some even had coffee and donuts waiting in their lounges. It was Be Kind to Your Housekeeper Day. Room and bulletin board judg- ing were also scheduled, but a shortage of judges prevented completion of the judging until the next week. Howick Hall's bulletin board was judged the best, and rooms in Knotts Hall and Clevenger Hall placed first in the women's and men's divisions, respectively. We felt really privileged to win out of all the women's rooms on campus, said Tammy Bryant, Brownsburg freshman. john S. metzger Before the start of the basketball game, five residence halls parade around University Gym showing off ban- ners they made.

Dur- ing a time out, with 4 minutes left to play, Shales Hall was announc- ed the winner. The Cards also came out on top with a 74-73 win over Eastern Illinois in overtime. The feeling in TC M-1 was one of tense anticipation. The au- dience was quiet and still, only the scratching of committee member Mark Ladd's pencil on paper was heard as he made the final tallies to determine the names of Mr. and Ms.Residence Hall 1985. For an hour and a half, 13 women and eight men had com- peted in casual wear, sports wear and dress wear. The four finalists had been announced, each had answered an impromptu question about residence h-all life and all were anxious to hear the results. When emcee Judy Johnson, Botsford Hall director, placed the first runner-up sash on Whitcraft Hall candidate Jon Allmandinger, Berne junior, that left Swinford Hall candidate Mike Herbert, Greensburg junior, as Mr. Residence Hall 1985. Trane Hall residents cheered as Cheryl Dickey, Columbus junior, accepted her roses as the very first Ms. Residence Hall. Swinford Hall candidate Angie Fullenkamp, Cincinnati, OH, junior and first runner-up, gave her a con- gratulatory hug. It was quite an honor, Dickey said. I had a flashback of everything I'd done, and I realiz- ed I'd really accomplished something. Complications continued as Fri- day's sudden dip in the mercury prompted the committee to con- sider moving the New Year's Eve re-enactment dance from the Stu- dent Center to a more central location. We decided not to change, said Frank Zok, director of Palmer Hall and committee ad- viser. We alreadywhad the room and the refreshments and other supplies had been delivered. For some halls, it would have been farther away to have it in LaFullette!' Despite the temperatures, and perhaps because of the cold and the accompanying cabin fever, over 65 students turned out for the New Year's dance, complete with party hats and Auld Lang Syne a la Dan Fogelberg at midnight. We thought there might be a lot of people here, said Tanna Stults, Argos freshman. But it doesn't matter. It's something to john S. m t get do The Air J am was cancelled when only four acts applied to participate. The actual show would only have taken 20 minutes, Zok said. The problems of the week caus- ed more than one headache for the committee. Despite the interference from the forces of Mother Nature in terms of subzero temperatures, 29 halls participated in one or more events during the week. Swinford Hall captured the overall participation award, a pla- que and 550 in desk supplies and Clevenger and Whitcraft Halls finished second and third, respectively. The time had slipped by quickly and the week came and went before the committee knew it. They had brainstormed, set plans and carried them out. Some events drew more participation than others, but it wasn't numbers that counted. The week had made residence hall life better for more than just one hall resident and that alone made it all worth- While. li' by Angie Fullenkamp Before the start of the inner tube race, two competitors await instructions from the starter.

According to Student Associa- tion President Steve Lowry, Mun- cie sophomore, The week was designed to create campus unity among all students. Along with the Student Center Programming Board and SA, the Black Student Association designed the week's activities so as to unite all students on campus. The entire week was changed from the traditional events held in the past. University President John Worthen signed a proclama- tion and officially declared the week as Unity Week before a host of supportive campus ad- ministrators. A variety of activities highlighted each day. At the Open Mike presentation, Dolores Williams, Anderson freshman, stole the show with a soul stirring performance of a gospel song en- titled Everything Must Change and left her audience begging for an encore number. The annual Martin Luther King Memorial Service was begun with a candlelight march of over 200 students and administrators who strolled from the Minority Student Development House to the first 50 Unity Week Presbyterian Church singing old gospel spirituals led by various members of BSA. Kenny Morgan, of the Madam C.J. Walker Urban Life Center, spoke for the service along with President Worthen and Dr. Hal Chase, professor of history. Dr. Chase dedicated eight percent of his salary to the Martin Luther King Scholarship Fund and challenged other administrators and faculty in attendance to do the same. I'm just one of these people who lives on less rather than more. I'd received a promotion, and at the time I felt that I was living alright off the amount I was receiving earlier. Dr. Chase felt King was a man with a lot to say, and one who did what he said. Everyone says that we ought to do something, but no one would, Dr. Chase added. So, it's like what they always say: 'If you want something done, you do it yourself. ' The week came to a close as the Rev. Charles Williams of In- dianapolis Black Expo encourag- ed students to do for themselves by striving for the best in whatever they sought to ac- complish.

For some, the fine change made no dif- ference. Cars parked on the grass circle by Lucina Hall are ticked for out-of-zone parking. Despite the increased parking space provided by more lots, students and faculty still parked illegally.

Cars on campus were classified as freshman, student, faculty-staff and visitor and each category had certain lots that only those cars could park in. That couldn't be more fair, except if they were freshmen cars that could only be parked in the gravel dunes of the Freshman Lot. Also, the number of spaces in each classification didn't always coincide with the number of cars registered for it. We always overregisterf' said Annabell Epperson, office manager of the Office of Traffic and Safety. You can overfill and still have plenty of parking because although many of the pro- fessors register more than one car, they are only going to drive one on any day. In September, 5,973 student and 3,796 faculty cars were registered. However, only 2,700 spaces were designated for students and only 1,300 were available for faculty and staff. Many students and faculty had trouble finding proper places to park. In September 3,823 tickets were issued for violations ranging from out-of-zone parking to im- proper registration. However, it was a decrease from the previous year, when 5,020 tickets were issued for that month. In an attempt to cut violations even further, a 190-space lot for upperclassmen was completed behind Johnson Complex. However, two rows of the LaFollette lot were taken from the students and a new 160-space lot was built adjacent to the Bell Building to create more spaces for faculty and staff. Despite this increased space, some people were still doubtful that it would make a difference. Students are still going to want to park in faculty and staff spaces because they are closer, said Ep- person. They will try and beat the system and see how long they can get away with parking an unregistered car. Increasing available parking wasn't the only attempt that was made to cut down on the number of tickets. For the first time since the founding of Ball State, the parking fines were increased. However, the registration fees re- mained the same. The price of registration has not gone up at all since Ball State began, said Epperson. Our registration fees are very cheap. Other universities just laugh when they hear how low our fees are. Previously fines had ranged from S1 to S5, but students and faculty found themselves paying between S5 and S50 for violations. Non-registered cars and cars parked out-of-zone got the most tickets, which ranged from S5 to 810. However, if fines were not promptly paid, they increased. A ticket on a non-registered car could be voided if the owner of the car agreed to register his car within three days. However, after seven days the S10 fine would be raised to 520. If the ticket was still not paid, it went on record at the Administration Building. At that point, the students can't register for the next quarter until they pay their fines, said Epperson. Students that would be graduating Wouldn't get their transcripts released until the fines are paid. Despite these stricter rules, many tickets were left unpaid and students hoped that somehow the record of their tickets would be lost. We have a good amount of tickets for which we receive no response, said Epperson. A lot of people don't bother, hoping that we won't make the connection and collect the fine. For some students the situation went beyond tickets, and they would return home to find that their car had been towed away by Nye's Wrecker Service. The cam- pus police often bore the brunt of any arguments that arose with students if they were still on the scene when the student arrived. We don't get much hassling from the students, said Sgt. Joe Pauley. Most of the time they will just question the cir- cumstances and say they didn't have a place to park. Most of the officers are understanding, but in some situa- tions an excuse just doesn't cut any ice, like when a student has parked in a student disabled space, he added. Those places have just got to stay open. And if a wrecker has already been called before the student ar- rives, they have to either pay for the wrecker or have the car towed because that wrecker service is independent of Ball State. The majority of tickets issued were out-of-zone tickets, and some students felt that eliminating the faculty and student labels on the lots would alleviate problems. I think the area between Lucina and the Administration Building shouldn't just be for faculty and staff, said Judi Levi, a junior who commuted from Anderson daily. We pay just like they do, but they get the better spots. I think all the parking should be first come, first serve. Attempts had been made to cut down on violations -- more park- ing spaces had been added and fines had been increased. But, regardless of the labels on park- ing lots, students and faculty still parked where they didn't belong. But in the meantime, cars kept rolling off the assembly lines and some into illegal parking spaces, along with the retaining lot at Nye's Wrecking Service.

As if run- ning from class to class wasn't enough, tired feet now refused to make that long trip back home. As a shuttle bus pulled to a stop at the corner, a quick rummage through loose change revealed on- ly four pennies, one nickel and a foil gum wrapper--not enough for the 15-cent ride home. The book- laden backpack was hitched up a little higher, with home the seem- ingly unattainab e destination. Never before had students had to pay any kind of fare for using the campus shuttle buses. But beginning Sept. 10, students gealized what a luxury the once- ree service had been when 15 cents per ride or a S15 per quarter pass were needed to ride the buses. The fees were instated to eliminate the need to support the bus system solely by the vehicle facilities fund and to redirect money o repair and construct parking lots, according to Robert Linson, vice president for Univer- sity Relations. The people that had cars and didn't ride, the shuttle bus were paying for the shuttle buses, Lin- son explained. The original cutback proposal eliminated one of the two Red Line buses cuttin Scheidler shut- , S tle services in half, and left the White Line services as they were. Even though the cutback would have saved the University S40,000, according to Linson, residents of Scheidler Apartments, the mar- ried housing addition located a mile and a half north of campus, 54 Shuttle Buses Scheidler resident Jody Moisan, Marion sophomore, circulated a petition that showed residents would rather pay for the shuttle bus service than lose it. It seems every year they cut a service at the end of the Spring Quarter around finals when peo- ple aren't in a position to do anything about it, Moisan said. My parents told me not to com- glgin but to do something, so I 1 .H Moisan and another Scheidler resident, Linda Moore, Gas City, compiled 401 signatures between residents of Scheidler and An- thony Apartments. Scheidler students were very receptive to the petition, more so than Anthony residents because Scheidler is much farther from campus, Moisan said. The combined responses, however, were enough to convince University officials that students needed the shuttle service. But the students would have to pay to keep it. Moore said that although the ad- ded expense didn't cut too heavily into students' pockets, it was still just one more thing they had to worry about paying for. It's very difficult being mar- ried and trying to make it in these apartments, she said. The University says, 'Well, we want S5 for a parking sticker, S15 to ride the bus and hen, this much for tuition and books! You keep get- ting hit from all sides! Even though the charges had to be paid as part of a compromise to eliminating the service, most that paying was better than walk- mg. If the buses had been cut, my husband would have had to take me to campus when he went to work -- three hours before any of my classes, said Sandra Shrock, Muncie junior and a Scheidler resident. Moisan added that without the bus service she and her husband would have had to buy a car. Joyce Young, Winchester freshman, not only had to worry about getting to school but also about how to get her 3-year-old daughter to the day care center and home again. The shuttle bus is a very im- portant part of my daily routine, Young said. I don't mind paying the fare for myself, but if I'd have to pay for my daughter to ride, I'd be pretty upset. Whatever the situation, students had to adjust to the problems the new shuttle bus fares caused. Many found themselves putting their measly change back in their pockets and starting the long walk home as a nice warm bus slowly pulled away from the curb without them. They couldn't help wondering to themselves if buying a bus pass wouldn't have been such a bad idea after all. For others, the decision was ob- vious. Their distance from cam- pus made the extra money worth the time saved. They didn't have to wait for sub-zero temperatures and torrential rains to con- vince them they'd be riding the next time they headed for homeiby Kim Simpson 'X 11116 ow x'd'l:W 51:10 l so S5- 3 ,lo :E,g5'flm0 m?dT,5 - S Mxg.a4 aww . 60 mf' WRXXXx Wm S I I AfquMd1,:s4:tvlx'?x+ mfs A GSXNX' xtorenvndef nv 'f,'f:f:.M,9,4. ..-ff Fly' 1 ,M W U f ff , f .

We ve really gofa city here in itself. hey've got the beat Campus police help students -Capt. James St. Myer, campus police heiy had more authority than stu ents might have thought, but they didn't abuse it like many said they did. The Men in Maroon, as they were sometimes called, were actually quite different from the stereotype Ball State had given them. We have the same authority as any other policeman in the state, explained Capt. James St. Myer of the campus police. We've really got a city here in itself. The officers were trained in the same program and given the same jurisdiction on campus, in Muncie or in Delaware County as the Indiana State Police. Captain St. Myer said that help- ing the student often required the department to work hand-in-hand with city police. Most situations involved underage drinking or complaints from neighbors. We're not here to harass students, but to help them, he said. If the city police pick up a Ball State student, they'll call us and we take it from there. We do this more often than most people realize. For many in this situation, call- ing in the campus police meant the difference between spending the night in jail and just getting back to their dorm room safely. But being prepared to help more than 17,000 students was not what most would call an easy job and it took a force of 30 dedicated officers to successfully pull it off. As Sgt. Joe Pauley patrolled Petty Road in front of University Gym a student flagged him down, parking ticket in hand. 5:08 p.m.--Cancelled student parking ticket after she explained politely that she was unaware that her car was parked on a curb. Officers were required to com- plete incident reports and some chose to do so between calls. Others filled this time with building security checks and park- ing lot patrols. But it didnlt take long before the dispatcher was back on the radio. 5:27 p.m.--Released two students trapped in an elevator in Knotts Hall. Called maintenance to make repairs. However, University police also received calls about problems that wouldn't normally be con- sidered regular police work. 7:29 p.m.--Took student from Clevenger Hall to Health Center. Students going to the Health Center after normal hours had to have a campus police escort. The officers also transported those students who couldn't get around to their classes. But during the day shift, a ma- jor portion of the day was spent performing routine duties as students found out when they returned to cars with yellow tickets stuck under the wipers. Rarely did the day shift offer the excitement of the Starsky and Hutch variety, for the night shift, however, it was more of a reality. It was during the night-time hours that loud parties were reported and a careful eye had to be on the lookout for people drink- ing and driving. 10:23 p.m.--Three black males in a green AMC made chauvinistic remarks toward female officer Vicki Johnson. After running a check on the car she finds that it is not stolen. 10:26 p.m.--The same three men were pulled over for an illegal turn. They had been drinking but were not intoxicated. Advised to go on about their business. Brad Sa No sooner had Johnson finished the run than another call came from the dispatcher. The residents of 921 Neeley heard loud noises out back and suspected a prowler. Immediately, concern filled Johnson's face. Parking a few houses away, she approached the yard and headed for the area where the noise had been heard. Nothing but a dog in a trash can, but officers never knew what might confront them and all realized that the utmost caution had to be exercised in all situa- tions. As the midnight hour approach- ed, people deciding that their neighbors had partied long enough called in. Usually we don't say much un- til we get a complaint, Johnson explained. That's our first reason to move them inside. On the first visit we move them in and ask them to quiet down. If we have to come back a second time, the party's over. 12:20 a.m.--Responded to com- plaint of a large, loud party. Upon arrival there were nearly 250 students present. Officers advised hosts to break up the party. Hosts complied immediately and none of the guests were carded. 12:37 a.m.--Report of loud party on Queen Street. Officer observed no disorderly conduct, music was not excessively loud and all students were inside. But with each call, officers always entered the situation with the idea of helping students foremost in their minds. It was only after students failed to cooperate that the attitude of the Men in Maroon even came close to the stereotype those students had given them.Eby Mark Smith Campus Police 57 ..i The typical student has not been getting health care on his own long enough to know what a good thing we have going here. -Dr. Michael Seidle, Health Center director iverse diagnoses Students were treated right t happens to all students sooner or later. They catch a bad cold, or sprain an ankle playing tackle football, or get cut on last night's Chef Boyardee can. When the vitamin C and Grandma's chicken soup run out, many of them turn to the Health Center. Not only was the Center closer than students' family physicians, but Ball Memorial Hospital wouldn't treat any student who hadnlt been to the center first. But being the only facility available didn't necessarily mean it was the best. I went to the Health Center with the notion that I had a blad- der infection, said Cynthia Char- vonneau, Merriville sophomore. When I saw the doctor, she wanted to test me for hepatitis. She punched me in my side where my liver is and said if it hurt right away I had hepatitis and if it hurt shortly after I didn't. The punch hurt for about four hours after- ward. Charvonneau wasn't the only student to distrust a Health Center employee's diagnosis. I went to the Health Center and the nurse didn't take my temperature or anything, said Barb Blair, Fort Wayne sophomore. The doctor just ask- ed me what was wrong and gave me some medicine. It didn't work. Later I had to go to my doctor at home. Dr. Michael Seidle, director of the Center since 1981, believed the negative responses came from students who had little experience in dealing with their health pro- blems independently. These students have unreal- istic expectations, he said. Persistence in coming back and following up is where they often fall short. The typical student has not been getting health care on his own long enough to know what a good thing we have going here. But the Health Center wasn't without support. Some students 58 Health Center felt the bad comments about the facility were often exaggerated and unfounded. When I went, I was so sick that I could hardly get up in the morning, said Allison Ballard, Detroit junior. They took their time and examined me complete- ly before prescribing medication. I was pleased with their treat- ment and the medication work- ed. Dr. Seidle had reason to believe that statements like Ballard's were somewhat popular. We have received several calls from hall directors complimenting us on our work, he said. We also conduct a random survey of 100 students throughout the year. It asks questions about the time waited, disposition of doctors and nurses and treatment received. Last year 90 percent of the students who participated in the survey were pleased with the ser- vice they received, Dr. Seidle said. A positive survey wasn't the on- ly reason Dr. Seidle had for being proud of the Center. Dr. Leland Brown, a retired Muncie surgeon, joined the staff to add orthopedics to its services and new laboratory facilities were installed. The remainder of the Center's staff included 14 registered nurses, 10 of whom were full-time, eight licensed physicians and one general surgeon. Dr. Seidle has received awards from the American Medical Association for his work in continuing education and was elected to sit on the board of the Mid-American Col- lege Health Association. So they waited on the north side of campus to wrap the next sprained ankle or nurse the next 24-hour flu victim back to health.

All the experiences on their 12- week, 103-show journey were special, from the flurries of five- minute football games to the in- novation of eccentric sleeping postures. Each singer seasoned as a performer, became better equipped as a promoter and had made changes that were part of life on the road. It wasn't the same old song and dance. There were days when the over- worked sound system squealed in mid-performance and nights when fatigue dampened the dazzle of every dance step, but everyone learned to take things in stride. It didn't take long for the group to get its first taste of adversity as a dress rehearsal intended only for parents and friends became a musical riot scene in front of several University dignitaries, in- cluding President John Worthen. Scattered with bobbled solos, forgotten dances and miscued en- trances, the opening night wreckage had to quickly be eras- ed from the singers minds. In my 15 years with the Singers, our dress rehearsal had to be the worst show I've ever been associated with, said Larry Boye, Singers director. From beginning to end it was a comedy of errors. Centerstage, Scott Fox, Noblesville senior, rocks in the spotlight to a rousing rendition of Jump, Shout, Boogie. Fox was one of only two University Singer members that returned from the group's 1982 Fall Tour. Over 100 hours of rehearsal had gone into preparation for the quarter and no one was about to let it all go to waste. It didn't take long for the magic to reappear. Tensions were high and nerves were on edge, but as the lights glared into focus and the curtains rose on high school stages across Indiana, the Singers put it all together. Our first show was more of a confidence booster than anything else, said Scott Marhanka, LaPorte junior. We never doubted that we could be great, but after coming off a horrible show, it was super to feel the energy of doing things right. Opening with the funky L1vin' It Up, the 14 singer-dancers, seven instrumentalists, three technicians and two directors made the kind of music that had earned them the reputation of the nation's top performing group of their kind. With a well-balanced blend of rock, jazz, Broadway and country music, it didn't take long for the tour's audiences to get caught up in the action. The favorite number among au- diences was the group's original patriotic medley, Lady America. Decked-out in red, white and blue costumes, the Singers included 27 different songs in the non-stop tribute which ended with the glamour of chaser lights and the spectacle of a 20-foot tall flag as a backdrop. After we did 'Lady America' for the first time, it was incredi- ble how many tears and how continued University Singers 61 Come on and jump on in! croons Lisa Schurr, South Bend junior, during the University Singers' Elwood High School performance.

First night toul-ups gave everyone from technicians to the per- formers the motivation to buckle down and work harder than ever so they could make the upcoming tour a successful one. 62 University Singers john S. metzger All smiles and spirit, Gina wamz, Muncie junior, brings her version of Livin' It Up! to a close. Whether it was an 8 a.m. performance before an elementary school assembly or the fifth show of the day, University Singers always looked fresh and full of energy on stage. TOUI' To Donce continued much emotion poured from everyone, said Lori Childs, Mun- cie sophomore. It seemed like a bolt of lightning hit the entire group and told us just how impor- tant the music we were singing really was. As most people didn't realize, not every waking hour was filled with music. Aside from four per- formances a day, there was the business of recruitifig students, the discomfort of five-hour bus rides in 90-degree heat, the fatigue of pre-dawn wake-up calls and the heavy labor of construc- ting the seven-foot set for each show. But everyone made the best of it. Even when we were working our hardest and things were runn- ing close on time, there was always a laugh on the way, said Brian Shockney, Windfall sophomore. Nobody in the group could take being serious for too long and sooner or later somebody would always break the tension. The jokes didn't stop offstageg there were always surprises crop- ping up during shows. Whether it was Lisa Schurr, South Bend sophomore, showing up after a number was half-over, or Scott Taylor, Fort Myers, Fla., sophomore, missing an entrance as the show's Texaco Man four consecutive times, there was always something cooking that on- ly fate knew about. When they weren't selling the campus through performing, the group talked to classes, held clinics, did radio shows and spent countless hours answering stu- dent's questions that covered all parts of life after 12th grade. The main reason the Universi- ty backed us on the tour was pro- motion, Boye said. We did our best to enroll students who were interested in what the campus had to offer. It was true that hard work went on offstage, but the real bread and butter of the tour appeared when three-piece suits were replaced by red-sequined costumes, conversation gave way to a microphone and the Singers let their music do the talking. If they wanted us to rock, we'd come out firing, but if they were looking for a mellower gig, we were happy to oblige, said James Alston, assistant director and lead saxophonist. But after shows for over 100,000 viewers and many standing ova- tions, it was difficult for any Singer to single out one show as the best. There were a lot of shows where we hit home with the crowd because people started running onstage for autographs after the show. Whenever that happened, we knew something was going right, said Chris Gordon, Con- nersville junior. After over 100 exhausting shows and thousands of miles traveled, the group was given the reward of soaking up all the Florida rays they could during a week of vaca- tioning on St. Petersburg Beach and a final show in Walt Disney World. So many unforgettable things happened' in Florida that I couldn't count them, said Matt Wolfe, Anderson sophomore. One of the highlights had to be per- forming in Disney, it was a dream-come-true. Boye said, Even more gratify- ing than Disney was knowing just how much effort and emotion the kids put into the tour. I have to say it was the best 12 weeks of my teaching career. With the tour over, many new friends and a feeling of pride, the tour group rejoined forces with the home-based Singers to make an eventful 1984 into an even bet- ter 1985. All wasn't wine and roses when they returned, however, as a decision by the School of Music cancelled the Singer's long- standing show, Spectacular, for the first time in two decades. We had problems getting the funds necessary for the show,'l Boye said, and we decided that rather than do a cheap show, we would wait until next year and do the 20th anniversary show the way it should be done. Even without the labor of put- ting together the spring ex- travaganza, the Singers kept more than a little busy with per- formances for the Indiana General Assembly, Beech Grove Show Choir Invitational and a sell- out showcase with the Marion 26th-Street Singers. The tour group, however, could never forget their quarter together. To some members the tour was like a rollercoaster ride they took through southern Indiana, and to others it was the memory of sign- ing their first of hundreds of autographs to flipped out junior high teeny-boppers. But to each and every one it was the discovery of a part of themselves they never knew -- the part that lived by a brand new song and dance.

Williamson. But the children of Ball State faculty and students did more than just stick their fingers in col- ors of paint, and campus and community day care center in- structors and student teachers contributed more to Muncie child care than a crayon drawing. The Campus Day Care Center not only provided a service for student parents, but also a positive, learning environment for both their children and students majoring in child development and related areas. The Center gives students the background and field work of teaching that's needed to support the child psychology and child development methods they've already learned, said Ruth Ann Moore, elementary education in- structor and the Center's director. At the same time, children enrolled there experienced growth and development through interac- tion with others, an opportunity that children without day care in- struction don't always have. Judy Miller, director of Huffer, subsidized by The United Way, said the Centerfs programs focus- ed on good development of socialization skills for 130 children 2 to 8 years old. Through day care they're gain- ing self-autonomy before they enter school and find out there are other children they're going to have to get along with, Miller said. We work a lot on respect for the other person, which is an advantage children without day care experience don't have when they start kindergarten. Whether day care was a necessary evil because both parents worked or went to school, or just an opportunity for Mom to spend some time alone, the entire concept of child care was gaining respect, even from parents who, 10 to 20 years before, would have thought leaving their children with strangers was taboo. Parents are beginning to realize the potential benefits of good day care, said Kevin Burns, assistant professor of psychological science. Not only are there significant intellectual benefits, but children need to spend time with others -- not out in the yard or somewhere in the neighborhood -- but with people they don't know. Parents can't teach them how to react in situa- tions like that. They have to do it themselves. Still there was guilt. But most parents were able to handle it after staying in the classroom and seeing that their children were en- joying the activities that had been planned for them. The kids cry, and so do some of the parents, said Sue Yarnelli, Creative Care Day Care Center director. But they're welcome to stay and watch for a while or call as many times during the day as they want to. Eventually, they ad- just.

But Burns didn't think that parents who left their children in the care of other adults for most of the day had to worry about supervisers and teacher becoming substitutes for them. There is no substitute for parental interaction, Burns said. Children need that deep love and affection only their parents can give them. The instructors are im- portant adults, but they're not Mom and Dad. Burns added that even though his son, Andy, had been at Kinder Care Learning Center for over a year, his relationship with his son had remained close to the same, and if anything, gave them more to talk about. Part of our evenings are set aside as 'Andy's Time, ' Burns said. We find out how his day went and ask him to tell us what he did. And in the mornings when Mom and Dad go to work, Andy goes to 'school' That's his job. The job of day care instructor, however, had as few requirements as Andy's did. Even though most of the employees at Huffer, Creative Care and Kinder Care had some type of degree in child development, it wasn't a qualification for employment. I 'Wouc Ten of my 13 instructors have a degree in one of three areas -- child care, early childhood or elementary education, Miller said. But the state doesn't re- quire it. Rita Maynard, Muncie Kinder Care director, said her position was the only one on a staff of 13 instructors that required a degree -- preferably in education. Kinder Care, a privately owned chain, operates 950 centers across the United States. Maynard added that even though more and more people employed by day care centers did have or were working on college educations, child care was still a traditionally low-paying job, mak- ing it hard to find employees who cared. Centers are gradually being updated and the need for better education is steadily increasing because there is more of a market for child care today, Moore said. Parents want their children to be part of this positive experience. They also don't want them behind other children with exposure to day care when they begin school. Laurie Green, Muncie senior, said student teaching at Huffer was definitely a lot of hard work but a very enjoyable experience. Even though campus day care facilities also included the Living and Learning Lab and Scheidler's Community Room, some students were placed with Huffer. Green and Scott, her Center supervisor, had their work cut out for them planning daily work and john S. metzgor play schedules to keep about 20 4- and 5-year-old children occupied and happy five days a week. But not all structured activities took place at the individual facilitites. Yarnelli said her staff tried to schedule some type of field trip for certain age groups about once a month. We've taken trips down the block to the fire station and walk- ed over to Christy Woods on cam- pus for picnics, she said. We've even arranged for the children to spend some time with Muncie senior citizens on Grandparent's Day. Of course, any activitiy that requires leaving the house has to be cleared by all the parents. The regularly scheduled respon- sibilities of the day were major operations in themselves and en- compassed all facets of a child's life. Besides organizing everday class acitivities and projects, directors and instructors found themselves supervising breadfast and lunch, busing schedules to and frfom school and special after-school groups organized for children from 6-to-12-years old. It's really relaxing, Green said. But, I go home tired. As Green finished a cutout from a piece of purple construction paper, an argument from behind the bookcase drew her attention.

'tWhatcha doin'? she asked. Working on a dialogue for my Styles class. t'Oh. She squeezed through the slim opening between the door and the frame, almost as if she were trying not to disturb the equilibrium in the room. She sat down in my Bentwood and began to rock. Not a word. I typed a few words and chanc- ed a glance at her. Her head lean- ed back against the upholstery and her eyes stared straight ahead. So what's up?,' I asked as I rolled up the paper to correct a typo. I Noth1n'. Rock, rock, rock, rock. I rolled the paper down again and rattled off a paragraph. The sound filled the quiet room like a jangling phone in an empty house. I stopped and leaned back. 'tls something wrong? Nope Everything's fine. She didn't turn her head, but kept rocking and staring at some in- visible spot on the wall. I tried again. Are you sure? Then she turned her gaze toward me and the rocking stop- ped. She looked for what seemed to be a long time and her eyes were as probing as a blind per- son's fingertips. Abruptly she began rocking again, as if what she had found in my face satisfied her. Well, she began, I do have this little problem. It had happened to friends before -- someone close needed to talk but was almost reluctant to ask for help. It was almost a challenge to find out what the pro- blem was. But once the games were over, close friends became the simplest way to deal with life's ups and downs, But it wasn't the only way. Counseling on campus was as varied as the problems students had. For some, it was as easy as a jog down the hall to the waiting john S. metzger 68 Counseling Bentwood. For others, the best solution was only a phone call away. I call her to talk, but we never get around to what's bugging me, said Anne Sheridan, Cleveland, Ohio, freshman, of her former history teacher. I think the times I call are not times I can really put a finger on the pro- blem. When I do know, she'l1 agree with me that I'm right about the situation. 'Yeah, the guy's a jerk,' she'll say, and sometimes I need that. For some students it wasn't that easy. They wanted someone close to the situation who could also be objective and give it to them straight. But most of all, they wanted understanding. Many often found themselves in situations they felt their parents wouldn't understand, so they turn- ed to older friends. There's something about talk- ing to your mother -- you have to draw the line, said Mary Mc- Cain, Indianapolis junior, who talked out her problems with a 29- year-old friend. With a friend, I know if I do something, she might be temporarily disappointed, but L L, V- she'll still like me, and that's very important. But when the problems became too complex, students looked for someone with more professional authority. In residence halls, students often turned to student staffs or hall directors. Sometimes students want you to make a tough decision for them, said Student Staff Barry Lewis, Chesterton senior. But you're trained not to do that. So you gather as much information as you can, then analyze the situa- tion and come up with some sug- gestionsf' Students with eating disorders or severe drug or alcohol pro- blems were usually referred to Ball Memorial Hospital. For other types of problems students went to the Counseling and Psychological Services Center in Lucina Hall. Annamaria Pesaresi, Winimac senior, said she needed help deal- ing with school because of her past health problems. I have a lot of pressures, she said. I have student teaching, and since I'm a senior, I'm leav- ing home and looking for a job. It's just nice to talk to so- meone who has been through col- lege before -- you really can't do that in the dorm because everyone's in the same situation and you don't want to burden them with your problems. But you're not burdening the counselors. They don't think you're complaining, she said. But whatever the problem, it seemed students always had somewhere they could turn. Some sought professional help. For many, a chat with the hall direc- tor or student staff cleared everything up. For others, it was enough knowing the Bentwood was just down the halliby Angie Fullenkamp Ken Martin, doctoral fellow, conducts one of the cenler's weekly professional seminars that help graduate students with their counseling responsibilities. john S. metzger The Bentwood stands still and empty but ready and waiting for anyone needing the comfort of its motion and the patience of a close companion.

When they went out of town, everyone knew and parties overwhelmed residence hall floors. But if a resident had a problem finding the Ad Building, changing a psychology class to chemistry or simply finding something to do on the weekend, student staffs were always available to direct, counsel or inform students. It's a 24-hour job, said Knotts Hall staff Laurie Davis, In- dianapolis senior, but there are really rewards from it. Along with the material rewards, which included a single room and 32,320 toward their room and board, student staffs also gained personal growth through their duties. I felt I went through a lot of experiences and I wanted to share them with other people, said Patti Kovacs, a 1979 student staff who returned to become the Knotts Hall ldirector. I saw that this would help prepare me for my teaching career because being a teacher encompasses many roles -- nurse, counselor, mother and friend. Since Kovacs was a staff, the program has changed with the needs of students. The interview process was expanded so that potential staffers were screened by a group of four, consisting of hall directors and student staff members. It's an in-depth process and it's very thorough, Kovacs said. This way you get a lot of feed- back instead of just one person's perception. The new conference 'committee also helped student staffs by pro- viding them with an annual op- portunity to share staffing ideas and develop new ones with stu- dent staffs and resident assistants from other Indiana colleges. I think in the long run that the conference will give our people a sense of pride, said Nick Nicklaus, assistant director of Residence Hall Personnel and Programs. He added that a University of Georgia survey concerning university housing programs throughout the country listed Ball State in the survey's top five. I think the rating was very complimentary to the people that are here, Nicklaus said. I also think it says something about the training we give our staff, our hall directors and the input that students have in the Residence Hall Association. But the administrative end of a staff's work was only part of the whole picture. Still remaining were their responsibilities of be- ing both counselor and social director for their assigned floor. It was fun trying to get the residents together, said Whit- craft Hall staff Tony Risner, Knox senior. I tried to find out what interests the residents had in com- mon when I planned activities. Since the interests and needs differed between men's and women's halls, the obligations of the student staff also varied. Staffs in men's halls had a much more police-type role, said another Whitcraft staff, Eric Haler, Spiceland junior. It took a lot more time to be on the floor to make sure it didn't get too rowdy? Because of the student staffs' responsibility to write-up students who violated hall policies, some were dubbed as hall police. A lot of times I didn't even tell people I was a staff, said Painter Hall staff Sede Newcomer, Mooresville senior. lt scared people because they would think that I was out to get them. Agreeing that students act dif- ferently when they learn that a person is a student staff, Haler said he works it to his ad- vantage. I get to know them and try to change the image of a student staff to one of a friend, he said. Despite a staff's attempts at friendship, students still had a hard time seeing the staff as anything but a staff. It's hard for them to be peo- ple's friends and then have to write them up the next minute, said Bobbi Monroe, Franklin senior. And a lot of people don't associate with them because of that fact. However, other students got along well with their staff, and felt that the relations on a floor depended on the staff's attitude. My staff is really great, he breakdances in the hallway, said David Houchins, Liberty junior. It really depends on the per- sonality of the staff: some guys you can really get along with, and others aren't so great. But no matter if they were help- ing freshmen find the trash room or counseling a homesick resi- dent, student staff members altered their image to become friends, classmates and leadersiby Angie MacAbee Student Staffs 71 During the few free moments Miss Ball State Pageant rehearsals allowed, contestants had the chance to get to know each other better.

Who's got the Static Guard? Duffle bags lay scattered about the dressing tables and wrinkled hose hung from the racks alongside Sequined evening gowns. Tense seconds ticked away before the opening number of the 1985 Miss Ball State Pageant. Three months before, 42 young women strode silently into the se- cond floor lounge of the Student Center, each met by the calculating stares of the others. Acquaintances were acknowledg- ed, hair was tossed, and diamond- bright smiles broke from moist, racy lips as they introduced themselves. Throughout the room there was a sense of electricity. Glowing Lycra, hip-hugging cotton and sheer nylon were proof: these women were hot and they all wanted to win. Just being in the presence of so many pretty women had a telling effect on everyone. The steering committee members were introduced, and Chairman Anne Coma, Carmel junior, gave a short pep talk. Committee Adviser Larry Ot- tinger reviewed the rules. This is not a beauty contest, he said. Your talent will be 50 percent of your score. The re- mainder is based on your inter- view and the evening gown and swimsuit competitions. There were no sighs of relief, no relaxed shifts in shoes or seats. None of the contestants wanted to give an inch on their attitude edge. The edge began to melt away sooner than most expected. The girls are all really nice compared to other pageants l've been in, said Leslie Dobson, Greentown sophomore. Beth Walker, Syracuse junior, said, When we first came in here everyone was doing some head games, but now that's over. They were forced to work together.

Sometimes I just feel like cry- ing, and I do, said Polly Nikirk, Columbus sophomore. In an effort to draw a larger au- dience than the pageant has seen in the past, the committee chose to present it in Emens Auditorium. But ticket sales lagg- ed as the pageant day drew near. Most residents of the Ball State community were not aware of the hours spent stretching and sweating for weeks to provide an afternoon of entertainment. But entertainment was only one reason contestants had for enter- ing. For many it was an op- portunity to meet others and learn more about themselves. It made me improve myself, said Debbie Struewing, Batesville senior. It gives you a high set of standards. There are so many neat girls. All of the neat girlsn had to make way for one, Miss Ball State 1985. Ten semi-finalists presented their talent, evening gowns, and crowd-pleasing swimsuits to the judges. While they made their choice, Miss Ball State 1984, Carol Hansing, Elkhart senior, perform- ed two vocal selections and gave an emotional farewell to the Car- dinal public.

But as Brian Peacher, Indianapolis senior, and Beverly Armour, Fort Wayne sophomore, the evening's master and mistress of ceremonies, ap- proached the podium off stage, the furor quickly dissolved to silence. A familiar drum roll and spotlight shattered the scene. Peacher and Armor acknowledg- ed the crowd. Welcome to 'The Other Side of The Rainbow, Miss Black Ball State Scholarship Pageant 1985. ' The curtains flew open, the music rose and the five women, once consumed with anxiety, emerged, dancing confidently to Chaka Khan's This is My Night. But being able to work easily 76 Miss Black BSU with others was only one of the pageant's challenges. Each woman was also judged in the areas of showmanship, finesse, talent and intelligence. She also tested as they all modeled sport- swear and evening gowns, answered an impromptu question and presented a 500-word essay on aparthied in South Africa. As the last contestant stepped from the stage to await the judges' decision, spectators mur- mured among themselves as to who the winner might be. The first name called was se- cond runner-up Sharon Warmack, Gary junior, who received two trophies for top advertising sales and a S300 scholarship. First runner-up Lynda Collins, Hammond sophomore, was next to step forward. Collins was also chosen Miss Congeniality and, like Warmack, was awarded two trophies and a S300 scholarship. But the moment the entire room had waited for was just around the corner. The silence once again returned only to be broken by the familiar drum roll of an hour before. Peacher stepped to the microphone. Will the new Miss Black Ball State for 1985, Miss Delores Williams, please step forward. The crowd jumped to their feet chanting Delores! Delores! Deloresll' over and over again. The confident freshman from Anderson was a pleasant surprise to them all. With tear-streaked cheeks, a dozen roses in one arm and the first place trophy in the other, Williams stepped from the line of five to receive her crown from Miss Black Ball State 1984, Obioma Little, Muncie sophomore.

In the contest categories which awaited them, each would be judged on the muscle formation of arms, legs, abdomen, back and for men, also the chest. With a roar from the crowd and a wave of applause, Joni Trimble, Elwood freshman, stepped for- ward to claim the 1985 Ms. BSU ti- tle. It was the first bodybuilding competition she had ever entered. Being a member of the gym- nastics team really helped, Trimble said. t'In fact, it's what got me into bodybuilding. My teammates were always joking with me about it and I'd always wanted to do it and had just never had the chance, so I tried it.

Carlin, the third place finisher in 1984 and fourth place finisher in 1983, added best back, abdomen and legs to his title win and McCraken had the best chest.

Other sisters taped down the paper covering their registration tables and eagerly awaited the ar rival of the contenders for the se- cond annual Sigma Sigma Sigma sorority's Bike Rally. Formerly Sigma Switch, the Bike Rally switched from the traditional tricycle races to bicycles, allowing riders entered in Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity's Bike-A-Thon a chance to practice and size up their competition on a one-to-one basis. t'Sigma Switch was mainly for the girls, said Tri-Sigma member Michelle Vandeman, In- dianapolis senior. The Bike Ral- ly benefits the riders more. There's a lot of competition with the Bike-A-Thon coming up and I'm sure that there'll be a lot of riders here to practice for that. Despite competing with Goofy Olympics and the Middletown Classic for participants and fac- ing the threat of an onpour of rain, the Bike Rally attracted a large number of riders, the men's 10-mile open boasted 44 com- petitors. It's much more of a success than last year, said Bike Rally Coordinator Teresa DeLawter, Peru sophomore. This year we have more riders than we've ever had before and a much bigger crowd. I think whatlhelped it was changing to Bike Rally. We cut the trikes out, made the races more competitive and it helps train the guys for the Bike-A- Thou.

After finishing at the table, the riders scattered to either ride the slick track or find a warm and dry shelter nearby. WERK Radio arrived to cover the competition and by 10 a.m. all the riders of the men's open bun- ched at the starting line and anx- iously waited to begin their 17 laps around the track. The gun was fired and the men were off. After the fifth lap, the first casualty of the slick track limped off the pavement, dragging his bike with its deformed front tire beside him. By the end of the race, there had been six accidents but only one winner. Pm amazed that Matt and I didn't wreck, said first-place winner Mark Stillman, Valparaiso junior about second-place Matt Mansur, Underwood junior. A lot of times I could feel my tires slip. The race would have gone a lot faster if it hadn't been wet. You've really got to concentrate or else you will fall. I really thought that Mark was going to go down right after the finish line, added Mansur. We were so concerned with not falling down that we didn't hear them an- nounce a thing. Somebody came up after the race and asked 'Did you win? Last year's 10-mile winner, Erik Decker, Muncie Central senior, dropped to third place. These guys knew what I did last year, said Decker. But I didn't train as much as last year either, Decker said. Following the men's open, the women's 10-mile race had six bikers entered, five of whom finished the race. Carla Chamberlin, Mishawaka sophomore, skirted past the finish line and took the first place trophy. In between events Timothy McRoberts, Danville sophomore, was announced as Rally King and Greek's Pizzeria pizza was served to the sounds of High Voltage, a Top 40 disc jockey. To start the next event, the Men's Advanced race, McRoberts, DeLawter and Jerry DeFord, Noblesville junior, rode in the pace car. Eric Wendorf, Westville sophomore, took the 20-mile first place trophy. I'm a licensed racer and there're no other races in Indiana this weekend, said Wendorf. It was really good practice for the Bike-A-Thon. The more you race, the more you learn. Mike Ward, Indianapolis senior, won the three-wheeler Hog Bike first place award. And in the Ral- ly's final category, the Missing Out competition, Jeff Braumberger, Muncie senior, fought and earned the first place award. The dust swept off the track earlier had blown back and turned into mud crisscrossed with bicycle tracks.

The Bozo Dunk Tank was one of the crowd drawers at the Delta Chi-Sigma Kappa Pig Roast, a fundraiser for the Ball Hospital Hospitality House. Along with the tank, dozens of long tables, a food tent where pork sandwiches and chips were served and a tent- covered stage filled LaFollette Field on the 80-degree afternoon. An average crowd of 200 to 300 people drifted from place to place, enjoying the food, the fun and the conversation. This is the best one we've had, I'd say, because of the nice weather, said Huntington sophomore Jeff Kyle, assistant general chairman of the event.

We're all people on the same planet. If we can use that as a reference point and start to know and respect each other, then many things are possible. Earth Day 1985 discovered com- mon links. Frisbees sailed through sunny skies connecting people from one end of the Arts Terrace to the other. Live music vibrated between bodies that mov- ed in unison to beats old and new. Barefeet shared common ground as people walked from booth to booth looking, listening and learn- 1n . gThe purpose of Earth Day is education,' said Susan Minear, Muncie junior and member of the Natural Resources Club which sponsored the event for the first time. Different organizations prepare booths to present any social, political or environmental views they have. Our club wants people to know how to help their environment instead of hurt it. Bog Glidden, Coal City, Ill., junior and Earth Day co- cordinator, said the event began as a national event in 1970, spon- sored by Environmental Action, but when Ball State's ENACT chapter dissolved in 1984 because no one applied for the director's position, the Natural Resources Club took over. We wanted to sponsor it for the educational aspects but provide diverse information from various groups -- not just environmental information, Glidden said. 86 Earth Day About 25 booths were set up by such groups as United Campuses Against Nuclear War, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Anthropology Club. Music by The Great Divide, Cosmic Debris, Governor Davis and the King Richard Band and Stone Soup, a demonstration of medieval fighting by the Society of Creative Anachronism and free rides in the Flying Tomato hot-air balloon rounded out the festivities. But Earth Day was only a part of Ball State's observance of En- vironmental Education Week in April, which also included White River Clean-up, two series of films shown in residence halls and campus guest Bruce Bundy, a researcher from Blooming ton who spoke on PCB contamination. The idea in the past has been to fuse educational purposes with having a good time -- entertain- ment and music, Glidden ex- plained. I think Earth Day suc- cessfully encourages people to think about the environment. Minds and bodies were oc- cupied. Bare arms and legs played and sat on new grass as people basked in the warmth of sun and friends. This is a great day! said Prudence Porter, Richmond sophomore. It gives people a chance to enjoy nature and each other. Eventually, the chill of the night air consumed the heat of the afteroon sun. Booths were replac- ed by amplifiers, frisbees gave way to blankets and the Arts Ter- race became a mini-concert hall. Harmonies vibrated through the crowd encircling people, earth and sky.

League night at the Muncie Bowl-0-Mat was the setting and Bev Jackson, an unsuspecting housewife, was the victim. Normally a mild-mannered suburbanite, Jackson was about to spend her birthday as a cringing, blushing picture of embarassment -- courtesy of two totally unique Ball State students. Clad in an ivory tuxedo, stylish top hat and fluorescent tennis shoes, Lafayette senior Mike McShurley, alias Red Sneakers, stood by an Overused helium tank and prepared himself for his con- frontation. Quickly inflating a rainbow of colored balloons, he said his first exposure to balloon bizl' was as a playschool teacher in a Wisconsin resort. I got to know a magician who made animals with balloons and he let me in on a few of his secrets, he said, adjusting the tank valve and blowing up a giant Snoopy. Balloon sculpting then became an obsession as he taught himself how to twist, screech and squirm balloons into 34 different animals. Pregnant dogs, ghostbusters and his U.S. patented Garfields were the most popular. After learning how to sculpt the different animals, I just sort of fell into the singing telegram type of delivery, McShurley said. I started working with the original Balloon Man. Then when he stopped delivering I found a working name and went into the business myself. His proficiency at his craft was revealed less than 30 minutes later as he strode into the bowling alley screaming Oh Bev! Where are you? When he found the red- faced woman shrinking in her seat, he fell down on one knee and belted out Happy Birthday, a la Al J olsen. After the mini-concert, he kiss- ed the birthday girl on the cheek, cheered her on for the duration of three uncontrolled gutter balls and bid farewell. I love to embarrass people and I think they like being embarrass- ed, McShurley said with a laugh. I love to make people happy, whether it's a newborn baby or someone celebrating his or her 100th birthday, and delivering balloons is the best way I've found to do it. Jackson, rattled as she was, admitted she loved the balloon-a- gram, but the evening was just heating up. Four short minutes after Red strutted out, a hand- some, dark-complected man resembling a legendary Chip- pendale glided into sight. Holding a bottle of champagne, a bouquet of roses and a highly- amplified ghetto blaster, Mark Austin, Anderson senior, had ar- rived. With his long, dark hair flowing over the collar of his suave black tails, he smiled at Jackson and beg an an unforgettable strip-o- gram. I've been doing singing telegrams for several years and I just started doing the strip tease as sort of a dare last year, Austin said. I've done them in a crowded Rax Restaurant, an Anderson nursing home and about a million other places. The clang of head pins and the outeries of cheering spectators didn't phase Austin's performance as he presented Jackson with the roses and wine, cranked up the stereo and let the clothes fly. As Shalamar's Dancin' in the Sheets filled the air with a funky, sexy atmosphere, Austin shed his bow tie, wing-tip shoes and arg yle socks. A white-ruffled shirt followed, revealing rolling waves of muscle and, finally, the lad's pants bit the dust. Once the music starts and my clothes start coming off, I just let my victim's actions dictate what I do, Austin said. Basically, I'm an improvisorf' Austin's creative instincts were in full tilt and soon he and his striped-bikini underwear were gyrating and hip-grinding without inhibition as he twirled Jackson above his head. As her face neared its third shade of pur- ple, Austin lowered her to the ground and beg an the finale. Hardly able to talk without bursting into laughter, Jackson's husband said, Honest to God, this is the first time I've ever seen Bev totally beyond words. He's great! A rousing chorus of Baby Face and a harmless kiss on the cheek rounded out the fiesta as Austin's provocative floor show came to a close and Jackson was left to make shallow threats of You're gonna pay for this! to her husband. It was an unforgettable birth- day. She danced with a stripper and went home with a balloon bouquet tied to one wrist. But to the balloon-boasting Red Sneakers and the scantily-clad Mark Austin, their role in the bowling alley was nothing more than a few minutes of fun and a chance to add new smiles to their trophy cases.

Avid theatre-goers began to trickle in, talking among themselves in the lobby until the doors opened. A lump came to Muncie junior Marian Hank's throat as she opened the box office for business. Just as it was the debut of Studio Theatre's first production of the season, Chicago, it was also a first for Hank, its new promotions manager. My first day on the job I got about two million calls and it took me two weeks to figure out what was going on, but everyone was really helpful, she said. With every show, Marian learned the ropes of running a theatre's promotions. From answering the telephone to getting adver- tisements out, she had her work cut out for her as the first undergrad to hold the posi- tion. By the second show, which practically advertised itself, things were coming together. i T s jonn S. rnetzgar nia o nson, incinna i A t .I h C tt Ohio, junior, helps herself to a Budweiser while no one else is Theatre Opening 91 In th beginnin Biblical story opens season with success Take One: Fast-paced, energetic and a tried and true musical, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoatj' was considered one of the theatre department's biggest successes of the season. The biblical story centered around Joseph, Jacob's favorite of 12 sons. Jacob gave Joseph a beautifully col- ored coat. Out of jealousy, the brothers began an elaborate plot against him. With a cast of nearly 30 theatre students, Joseph was one of the largest shows ever put on in Studio, and proved quite a challenge. At first, I was worried about how we were going to fit everybody in there and how it was going to be staged, said Mike Davis, Forest freshman, who played the youngest of Joseph's brothers. But after we got everything organized, I think it worked out pretty well. Another problem with the large cast was staying out of the au- dience's way. Todd Sandman, Fort Wayne sophomore and also a brother, was constantly conscious of the inconvenience. The first night was scary because when we did the dance where we circled around Jacob, Sandman said. We had to be careful not to step on anybody's feet. People like to lounge down in the first row. As it turned out, problems enhanc- ed performances. Being so close, the audience saw facial expressions and intricate choreography that was pro- bably unnoticed by people in the back, and the narrator was able to walk among the crowd as he told the story. I liked being part of the audience as well as part of the cast, said narrator Sheryl Engle, New Haven junior. But my concentration had to be up the entire time. If I had let my character slip, the audience would've seen it and that would've ruined the show.

The play was similar to what real- ly happened when soldiers came back from Vietnam, according to Tom Owen, Alexandria freshman, who read about the subject to prepare for his part as David, the sol ier. . You could be in the jungle in a firefight and be back in front of your TV in 36 hours, Owen said. It was culture shock.

They are the typical white, middle class, all-American family of 1968 that didn't know what Vietnam was all about and didn't really care to. They centered their lives on material objects and unrealistic views. David tried to take that away from them, but didn't suc- ceed. Father Donald, Jeff Casazza, Mun- cie freshman, confronted David with his apparent struggle, coming off as a rather bad Father Mulcahey featured in the Korean War series MASH. Outside he was was a saint, said Casazza. But when he was really pressured and stressed, he really didn't care about anything. Doing Sticks and Bones changed some of the cast members' outlook on the situation in Vietnam. Aleta Brown, Butler senior, who played - Harriet, wanted to do the show because her brother went to Vietnam and experienced a lot of what David did The show just reinforced a lot of what I'd felt all along, Brown said. War isn't heroic, honorable, beautiful or anything. It's just death. Take Three: One of the three more serious Studio plays, The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds, focused on a young girl named Tilly, who did a science ex- periment to get the title's results. The rantings of her insane mother and epileptic sister complicated the situation, showing the sadness and misery that can come from a miss- pent life. Director Becky McIntyre, Greenfield senior, chose the show because of its deep characterization. I knew I wanted a show where I could focus on character develop- ment and character relationships rather than technical aspects, laughs or choreography, McIntyre said. I knew 'Gamma Rays' was it when I realized that you couldn't describe each one of the characters in a paragraph. To help with the characterization, and for the sake of a little ex- perimenting of her own, McIntyre in- troduced a new acting method to her cast. Originated by author Eric Morris in his book No Acting, Please, it focuses on drawing emotion from real life experiences into the character being portrayed. Every rehearsal began with special exer- cises designed to bring personal emotions to the surface. The family's elderly ward, Nanny, was played by Anita Johnson, Cin- cinnati junior. Johnson wanted to do the role for the experience of playing an old person. I could already use my voice, but I had to use my body for Nanny so I learned a lot about it, Johnson said, To study for the part, Johnson wat- ched elderly people on the street and in malls and also observed her brother-in-law's grandfather and a friend's grandmother. The grand- father continually folded napkins and the grandmother played solitaire, even after she dropped half the cards. Johnson spent two hours before every show applying the latex make- up that made her look the part. But the wgrst part was taking it off.

Hlt pulled all the hairs offll' Jeanette Muhleman, Marion sophomore, who played Beatrice, the insane mother, found that her character rubbed off a little. She had to make a change in her portrayal of Bea shortly before the show opened and it changed her personality for a while. I became even bitchier. Up on stage, I was more obnoxious than I could ever be and it started to affect me offstage because I tended to be more sarcastic, Muhleman said. Even though she may have picked up something negative from the show, she picked up some positive things, too. The new acting method helped her to control her ner- vousness and playing Bea, who made a couple of bad decisions that messed up her life, made Muhleman want to succeed on her own. Tilly, Tammy Marcum, New Cas- tle sophomore, was a little different from most other kids her age,and Marcum had sympathy for her. I saw a movie of 'Gamma Rays' when I was 10 or 12 years old and I was always kind of weird, Marcum said. Tilly made me feel like being different wasn't particularly bad. There was one line that said, 'If you're the least bit different in this world, they try to kill you off.' Tilly is evidence that you can't do that. I.

Platforms, card- board trees and backdrops moved audiences around the world and through the history books. Twisted trees were silhouetted against a light blue screen with others coming out from either side of the stage. Slow harmonica music floated through the house, setting the mood of a balmy summer night in the country. This simple setting for John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men took those who saw it back in time to the 1930's in California. Two itinerant ranch hands, George and Lennie, dream a lot. Lennie, mildly,mentally retarded, kept doing all the wrong things without really meaning but nevertheless, it cost them both their job. Dreams of having a place of their own kept them going, as well as their deep friendship. But George eventally killed Lennie to prevent the ranch owner's own opportunity to do so from killing him. George did it because he loved him. Only through death was he able to keep Lennie from the hands of those who didn't understand him. Casting the show was difficult for Dr. Alan English, assistant professor of theatre and the play's director. t'Physically speaking, I had to have someone who was big to play the part of Lennie and hopefully so- meone who was rather small to play George, Dr. English said. George, Ken Harmon, Yorktown senior, and Lennie, Mark Patrick, John Pea, Muncie graduate student, reminisces about Godot as J.R. Stuart, West Point junior, looks on with concern towards his daydream- ing companion in Waiting for Godot. Lafayette junior, worked well together. Already being friends helped their relationship on stage. George and Lennie needed each other, atrick said. Without the other, all either one of them had was a dream. There was a special bond as-:tween them and we had to show at-l! The gunshot that killed Lennie rang through the tense silence of the audience. Lennie fell over in a huge heap by the wooden reeds of the im- aginary river. The lights blacked out and the audience, in total awe of what they had just seen, shuffled out muttering to themselves. continued ., -..i john S. mstzger Qeee 't I ,... , 'S 'l' lt3'j':i':.'5i,fIx1 ffl -f wt - , ,. an n ov- '- T 4' ' Jw - 4 .4-, ,.

Even though David Shawger, Mainstage set coordinator, knew the show agenda a year in advance, he didn't start designing each one until two to four weeks before it had to be done. All set construction took time, but the most intricate, and challeng- ing, was that of Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street. Other than the usual platforms and furniture, Shawger had to design a safe chute for corpses that fell from the barber chair into the pie shop below it and also a fake razor that squirted blood. Dr. Donald Heady, professor of theatre and Sweeney Todd direc- tor, felt the audience really enjoyed the show -- blood and gore included. Even through the slitting of the throats, they knew it wasn't really blood and he wasn't really killing people, but they became involved in it, Dr. Heady said. It was almost like a bunch of kids going to see a Frankenstein movie. Sweeney Todd's musical aspects were a little more difficult. The music being disjointed and complex were the reasons most cast members gave for doing the show. Erin Kurtz, Kendallville junior, who portrayed Mrs. Lovett, said it was a challenge for her, both musically and as an actress. Mrs, Lovett is funny, energetic and has spunk, Kurtz said. She had good, funny lines which made the audience like her, and I like to play roles like that. plied studies in music, was a little surprised, and worried that his character came to him so easily. Some characters are just almost impossible to get into. Ewart said. You never really do reach the level you want to. But Mr. Todd just sort of fell into place for me. It was a good sound production, Dr. Heady said. There was an ensemble feeling among the people and the performers were very good about moving the set and helping the show flow smoothly. Take Six: An old but well-remembered love affair between an actor and actress is intriguingly rekindled in Kiss Me Kate. Sharon Carbaugh, Logansport graduate student, saw a lot of stage time as Katherine and Lily. I had easier things to learn in 'Kate' than in other productions I've been in, but four times the work, Carbaugh said. Her co-lead, Scott Avery, Mar- quette, Mich., graduate student, felt the same about his portrayals of Petruchio and Fred. While they both had been trained as singers, neither had had any dancing experience and some of the numbers, especially the waltzes, took a little extra effort and concentration. Two minor gangster characters provided the production's comedy relief and often received the better part of the audience's attention. I haven't seen a production of 'Kiss Me Kate' yet where the gangsters didn't steal the show, continued Photo Servl Sweeney Todd competes in a shaving contest against a fast- talking, traveling medicineman. 101 66 t's too darn hot pro- claims the ex- hausted cast of Kiss Me Kate on their Backstage set.

They are characters that appeal to the audience. Casazza, one of the gangsters, said he wanted his part because he thought it would be fun. His one song, Brush Up Your Shakespeare, was played to it's comedy limit, Casazza said, because the orchestra conductor was allowed to keep it go- ing as long as he wanted. Never have I been in a show where every night was different, Casazza said. Sometimes an im- promptu dance solo was added to one of the songs and many other parts of the show were varied during the play's run. One night the wires broke on the bell that was supposed to ring the telephone, so a creative piano player saved the baffled Carbaugh and Avery. We didn't know what to do, Car- baugh said. They had promised us it was going to ring. But Bloom was satisfied with the results. It went very well, considering that most of the cast was relatively inexperienced, he said. Everyone had a few problems adjusting to the Shakespeare, not only the language, but also the tights and heavy skirts.

Five times throughout the school year marked transforma- tions from an auditorium often filled with symphonies and plays to a Hoosier version of a country barn dance. For many students, it was time to pull on the faded jeans, put on the best southern accent, and, as good ol' boys and coeds, mosey on over to raise the roof with some of the most famous sounds to echo from Nashville. NEIL YOUNG Neil Young, traditionally a folk singer, but given to wild flights of musical experimentation, seemed comfortable within his new found home in country music. This pleasant transition was revealed during his Sept. 16 con- cert. With his band, the Interna- tional Harvesters, in tow, Young executed pure country rhythms and lyrics. With a distinctive nasal twang, Young opened with Are You Ready For The Coun- try, injecting a sound that was hard-hitting and down home. Foot-stomping selections Amber Jean, dedicated to his infant daughter, and train song Southern Pacific Daylight, were recently penned country tunes enhanced by the en- thusiastic sawing of fiddle player Rufus Thibideoux. Young, however, didn't neglect yesterday. The receptive crowd, which already was turned on by the country songs, changed into a screaming, arm-waving mass as Young effortlessly strolled through the past with classics such as Heart Of Goldf' Needle And The Damage Done, Helpless, and Love Is A Rose. Neil Young, in cowboy hat, or Neil Young singing early 70's folk, proved that no matter which direction his music takes, it will always be pure gold. RICKY SKAGGS lt was a combination of old country and bluegrass styles. Appropriately entitled newgrass, it was a collabora- tion of fiddles, guitars, dobros, mandolins and the genius of Ricky Skaggs. Skaggs, a versatile singer- musician, left the crowd at the Feb. 2 concert addicted to his energetic approach to both new and old numbers. Backed by his Grammy Award winning band, and aided by bluegrass opener, The Whites, Skaggs brought the audience to its knees -- and to its feet, by the end of the evening. Promoting many songs from his recent album, Skaggs launch- ed into steaming lead guitar and mandolin solos of f'Country Boy, and Bill Monroe's instrumental Wheel Hossf' With his eyes closed in lyrical concentration, he slid into country weepers Pa- tiently Waiting, and George Jones' classic Window Up Above. The two hour concert, which in- cluded a single spotlight solo and a duet with his wife Sharon White, ended with Skaggs, The Whites, and both bands coming together on the encore sing-a-long Hallelujah, I'm Ready, and a second encore solo. Skaggs, overwhelmed by the screaming crowd, promised that he would return. We're going to come back and see you, he vowed. I guarantee it 77 ROY CLARK Lightning fast fingers and a quick wit dazzled the crowd on March 19 as Roy Clark brought his special brand of talent to Mun- cie. Known as The Superpickerj' Clark performed a variety of breathtaking riffs on both six- and twelve-string electric guitars and five-string banjo. Renditions of songs ranged from tender strains of The Theme From Doctor Zhivago, to Alabama Jubilee. Accompanied by his Wild West Band and three female backup vocalists, Clark crooned several songs made famous in previous years, with Thank God and Greyhound and Yesterday When I Was Young being ob- vious favorites. A man who obviously enjoys his talent and warm rapport with his audience, Clark left behind more than an audience, but a special group of friends. A popular Midwestern musical form, country music served a special purpose in Muncie. lt was the year for Neil Young, Ricky Skaggs, Roy Clark, Glenn Camp- bell, Sawyer Brown, and Tammy Wynette to enlighten enthusiastic audiences. But more than that, the music bridged the generation gap by uniting young and old, students and faculty, in a common musical interest.

Many students found the Tally an enjoyable site to step to the beat. in We'll have to work at giving those who live in residence hails a reason to come this far. -Bruce Morgan, Student Center director 1 tudent Center director on location Changes field victory cry in form of 'Tolly Ho' he air was still except for the gentle whisper of snowflakes falling on the frozen ground. From the sidewalk of North Quad, one could faintly hear the sound of voices singing in the night. From the south, behind the Ad- ministration Building, the sky held a golden aura. It emanated from Christmas lights that outlin- ed the Student Center and the large spruce that towered over its main entrance. ' The songs and decorations, along with carriage rides, donuts and hot chocolate, were all part of the Student Center Programming Board's Christmas celebration. Although the celebration wasn't new to campus, there was more emphasis put on the program. It seemed a lot of things at the Stu- dent Center were different than before. Leaving his job as night manager at the University of Alabama's Student Center, Bruce Morgan arrived in early December as the new Student Center Director. The day after his arrival, Morgan's office resembled a warehoused conglomeration of papers and materials packed away in boxes. But seated at his desk, he sounded calm and more than ready to take on his respon- sibilities. Pm impressed with the University, Morgan said. The people here are very friendly, and the facilities are well-maintained and modern. From what I've been able to pick up, the University is committed to having a first rate Student Center. Morgan added that from his ex- perience in visiting other student centers in different regions of the country, he viewed Ball State's facilities as having more than just the basics. It's way ahead of a lot of stu- dent centers, he said. It's not the premier facility in the country by any means, but I think that it is something the majority of stu- dent centers aim for -- to be the best that they can be in their par- ticular setting. Morgan's philosophy of a stu- dent center is one of service, not only to the students, but to the staff and the Muncie community as well. But Morgan said the only obstacle to providing that service was the facility's location. The majority of the dorms are at the other en of the campus, he said. That creates a problem as far as getting students in. We'll have to work at giving those who live in the residence halls a -reason to come this far. SCPB Coordinator Art Martin and the board had plans for at- tracting those students. The Tally Ho will become a facility for everything from noon- time entertainment to a place for musical or other events in the evening, Martin said. He added that he hoped the renovations would create a warmer atmosphere in which to work and help in getting students to take part in Student Center ac- tivities. But despite the obvious obstacles, Morgan felt his new position would be a rewarding one. There's a great feeling of ac- complishment in making a career move such as this, he said. You feel as though you're being rewarded for the work you've put in. On the personal side of it, it's hard to leave the friends you've made, but anything worthwhile is worth paying a price for. New friends will replace the old as will the responsibilities of a new position and the advantages of a new and different environ- ment. The first thing I need to do is get to know the people I'll be working with on a daily basis, Morgan said. I think developing personal commitments, as well as professional ones, is very impor- tant to the success of an opera- tion. 5 by Eric McDougall Student Center 107 'O ? 5 l I D 1' if After months of practicing, Spring Sing performers were able to compete against each other in the 37th annual event.

Eyes were carefully lined, cheeks brightly rouged to a blush of high excitement. Voices warmed up, the notes falling and swelling in harmonized unity. Taut muscles were stretched, final in- structions were given and every last detail was put into place. Finally, good wishes were toss- ed breathlessly back and forth as each group and individual waited for the all-important moment under the spotlight. It was time for Spring Sing, when every bit of practice, hard work and dedication would, hopefully, pay off. A small but serious group of six organizations were competing for top honors in the all-campus musical event, the 37th annual singing and dancing competition, sponsored by Sigma Alpha Iota and Phi Mu Alpha Sin- fonia. Practice had begun as early as three to four months before. But the first gauging of the groups' abilities came three weeks before the main event at the preliminary competition. Because the field was so small no groups were to be eliminated. I feel ready, said Colleen Pott, a director of the Alpha Chi Omega-Alpha Tau Omega group, with her jaw set. Then she laugh- ed. I'm just glad no one's going to be cut. For most, the main point of prelims was to take the advice of the judges to heart. This is the best thing that could happen to us -- to be judg- ed, said Dan Rice, director of the Botsford-Swinford group, to the members. Pm going to be taking notes and you can all do me a favor by taking notes up here, he continued, pointing to his head, 'cause this is why we're here. But then the time for advice and changes was past and the big day had arrived -- the day when all would be put to the final test. One after another the groups took the stage to smile, dance and sing their hearts out. The show beg an with Irving Berlin tunes and in- cluded everything from OklahomaH numbers to songs from A Chorus Linef' Except for the performers of Once Upon a Mattress in nightshirts and assorted socks, two types of costumes prevailed. The first half of the groups sported a casual, blue-jean-and- check Western look and the se- cond half was dominated by color- ful, glittery dresses and skirts along with a black and white more formal look for the men. With the competition part of the afternoon over, the groups gathered in the balcony to clap, cheer and dance in the aisles to the intermission music of a stu- dent jazz combo. Enthusiasm was high among the competitors. It was great! I felt good being out there, said Alpha Chi Omega sorority member Kathy Kerwin, Fort Wayne freshman. But, I don't know. Everyone was really, really good, the competition's tough, she said as she waited for the six judges' final decision. Brad SBIHEI' -1. H 'Qnl i Others were also unsure of the outcome but felt winning was not necessarily the main reason to participate. We just say, 'Have fun.' Go out there, put everything into it and it will all be worth it, said Sigma Kappa sorority member Kathy Adair, Richmond sophomore. As the judging was completed and the house lights went down one last time, participants lined the balcony railing, trying to get as close to the front as possible. First, to the relief of some and the disappointment of others, Sigma Kappa-Sigma Chi, Delta Delta Delta-Sigma Pi and Chi Omega- Sigma Alpha Epsilon received honorable mention plaques. Then, the remaining three groups waited expectantly to see how they had placed. Alpha Chi Omeg a-Alpha Tau Omega took third place and screams thundered throughout the auditorium. A pause filled the charged air and then the an- nouncement rang out that Pi Beta Phi-Delta Chi had won second place and Botsford-Swinford had captured the first-place trophy for the second consecutive year. As the screaming and cheering finally died down, the crowd began dispersing and the groups headed for the doors, the winning group gathered at the balcony's edge to serenade the people below. The listeners paused quiet- ly with upturned faces as the beautiful notes of Blessing of Aaron floated down. Then, the moment over, the group grabbed their things and rushed outside for one last, exuberant, collective yell. We did it!

He snapped it off and fell back onto a pillow rumpled from nine hours of sleep. With his one open eye on the second hand, he felt for his pulse. It was a routine on a race day, to determine if he had had enough sleep the night before. They had gathered the night before for their traditional spaghetti-lasagna dinner. Conver- sation was light, but each of the riders had thoughts of what was ahead of him on the dirt track of the Fairgrounds, the site of the 1985 Lambda Chi Alpha Bike-A- Thon, They broke it up early and hit the sack by 11 p.m. Even though 1984 Destiny members said the team would not race again under the 4-year- old name, they were returning to the track together to try for their fifth consecutive Bike-A-Thon ti- tle. Braumberg er was surprisingly relaxed for a race day. His pulse was good and the usual tenseness and impatience before competi- tion was absent. Putting it down to the time gap before the race, he left his house on Dill Street for morning warm-up, 15 miles of motor pacing. He rode steadily behind the car of a former Destiny team member and tried to put away thoughts of what was to come in only five hours. Back at the house, Dave -Lewis, Wheaton senior, had dozed since his alarm had rung at 7 a.m. and sounds of Braumberger had rous- ed him. As on former Bike-A-Thon days, Lewis, also a Destiny team member, went out to Village Pan- try to pick up a paper and relaxed with it on the front porch. There would be enough time to worry about the race once they got to the track. 110 Bike-A-ThOr1 What remained of a light breakfast of cereal and bagels was still on the table when the rest of Destiny began to arrive. Water bottles, the exercise bike, umbrellas, the cooler -- the team organized the supplies for the day and took off for the track. Teams in their glaring-bright uniforms rimmed the outer fence line, some already pedaling slow- ly on exercise bikes, others scop- ing the competition and some wishing each other good luck. An hour before the race, Braumberger drank tea for the caffeine. It would stimulate his fatty acids and get him up physically. But it was just as much a mental game. The bikers had gathered at the fourth turn fence, the yellows, reds and sky blues of their 11--.1-.1i uniforms shining flourescently in E ,,. V the hazy sunshine. Dust rose across the infield as they entered the track and as each team walk- ed toward its pit, a roar rose from the crowd in the main grands- tand. The teams had been told ahead of time the location of their pits and, once known, was one less detail for the biker to worry about. And less worrying time meant more time to concentrate on the race, Braumberger thought. Destiny strode to its pit in front of the grandstand. In his mind Braumberger went through the strategy again. The team would make few exchan es and 8 therefore have minimal opportuni- , ty to incur penalties and ex- changes were to be careful, but not too conservative. They were going to dictate the race and they were going to win.

Bike-A-Thon 111 'l r It was their destiny conlln ued The neat three rider lines broke up quickly after the pace lap and fresh bikers broke from the pack now and then to take short-lived leads. Early on, the main cluster was dominated by six teams which battled back and forth for the lead. On lap 33 the Delta Tau Delta- Pizza King team received a time penalty and when Destiny picked up on it, they decided it was time to break up the main group of riders. They picked up the pace and rode shorter laps while still sticking to their main strategy. Soon the team had a lap lead on the rest of the field, but neither Braumberger nor the rest of the team let themselves get too hopeful. Lewis kept thinking of flat tires, or a wreck or a penalty that could do them in, but Braumberger didn't even speculate. The race would be won when they crossed the line -- if they crossed the line. The last laps were the killers. Braumberger concentrated on the relaxation techniques he used two times a week during training to 112 Bike-A-Thon keep his mind in control of his body. The team decided toward the end of the race that Brent Mosey, Indianapolis senior, should have the honor of finishing the race. As he came across the line to the checkered flag and raised his arms in Breaking Away style, the rest of the team simultaneously raised their arms and jumped into the air. Braumberger felt good for everyone else on the team. He gazed around at the rest of Destiny and he saw not a group of individuals but a team, one that had trained hard, raced hard and won as a team. Destiny's record was clear of penalties and other mishaps and Lewis was relieved. The race had not come down to a sprint as in years past and Destiny's reign would continue. Meanwhile, the teams remain- ing on the track were finishing their last laps. Under normal cir- cumstances the race would be over when the first team crossed the line, but Sigma Chi No. 1 and Sigma Alpha Epsilon No. 1, still on the same lap, had to finish out the race to determine second and third place winners. The Sigma Chi biker barely held off the sprint made by the SAE rider when the teams realized they were still competing. Sigma Tau Gamma No. 1 and Delta Chi No. 1 rounded out the top five. The crowd began to disperse immediately, but family and friends of the top teams remained to watch the awarding of the trophies. The team that wasn't going to come back under the name of Destiny raised the five- foot tall trophy high in the air and smiles sprung to their faces despite exhaustion. Braumberger went out to din- ner with his family and later hit some of the weekend-long parties on campus. There was a camaraderie among the teams despite Destiny's five-year tyran- ny and the team's members were welcomed and congratulated. It wasn't 11 p.m. when Braumberger finally went to bed that night, but then again, the next day wasn't Bike-A-Thon either.

Grab some fun .... Zoogle! Although students knew how to have fun, the majority of them had no idea what a Zoogle was. I thought it sounded stupid, said Sherry Waltman, Muncie resident. It sounded like something played in a zoo. But it was fun. Unlike any other toy, it was a stick that had been made soft with plastic foam and tubing and had one end colored while the other was black-tipped. Zoogle inventor Willie Caudill, Yorktown resident, had been in- volved with games and toys for many years when he decided to create Zoogle as a game in which handicapped people would have the advantage. As a boy, Caudill suffered polio and wears a five- inch lift on his left shoe. I left home when I was 14 years old to work with games at carnivals, Caudill said. I got tired of traveling around, so when I got the idea for Zoogle I made up my own game. It's the first game that handicapped people can play with someone else and win, he said proudly. Caudill said he named the game Zoogle not only because he was smart but because it was cat- chy as well. When you're doing trade- marks, you have to wait un- til they make sure that there isn't anything else with that same name, he said. I came up with Zoogle 'cause it didn't take long for them to find. And catchy it must have been. Pizza King in Muncie agreed to sponsor the Zoogle and the tour- naments Caudill wanted to have. When he approached us, my first question was 'What's a Zoogle? ' said Brad Prather, general manager of Pizza King. But now that we know what it is and what it's for we're going to be holding different tournaments with Willie for bikes and 31,000 prizes. Prather added that although he hadn't had much time to play Zoogle, it was a fairly easy game, Players stood 25 to 30 feet away from each other, their feet apart, knees bent and threw the stick with their hand on the black end to their opponent who had to catch the stick on the black end as well. But there was more to playing Zoogle than just tossing a stick back and forth. The area of the body from the head to the mid- torso was pegged the Zoogle Zone. Anytime the Zoogle hit a player's Zoogle Zone his opponent won three points. However, if the Zoogle should hit the leg, the player must stand on the other leg only and continue the game. If the player grabbed the Zoogle around the colored tip, he would lose the use of that hand and arm for the remainder of the game. The first player to reach seven points won and the best two out of three took each of the three mat- ches. As participants warmed up for the competition, both children and adults could be seen hopping on one leg, putting one arm behind their backs and throwing a Zoogle with all their might. You really have to practice, said Charles Ely, Southside High School freshman. I play about half an hour a day. Although the majority of the people at the tournament were competing, there were some observers there as well. I thought it was pretty silly before I watched them play, laughed Preston Cross, Muncie resident. lt's exciting for them. I'm really surprised that there aren't any more people here. If I was a kid, I'd love S1,000. Cross didn't seem to be the only one who'd love to have the S1,000. '.uH..' K 'J A ii' lux v1.liL,t 1, w '1'll . The tournament began and the nervousness of the players as well as the watching crowd mounted. In one match, two friends were pitted against each other. When their names were called, the two men looked at each other, laugh- ed, and at the same time said, I don't believe it! Before their match had ended, both men had each lost at least one limb during each of the three games. After the winner was announced, they shook hands and someone in the crowd shouted, Make up the dif- ference at the bar, boys! The contest was ended all too soon when Randy Timmons, Mun- cie Central High School senior, with the aid of Caudill and his crew, walked away the winner with 31,000 and a bike from an earlier contest. Although Caudill hoped the tour- naments would be good publicity for Zoogle, he said he wasn't prepared for the large number of orders he received for the toy. To meet the demand for the new game, Caudill transformed his barn into The Zoogle Factory, completely equipped for the han- dicapped persons who work for him. Caudill did have an idea of how well the Zoogle would be ac- cepted. By just playing the game in Central Park in New York City, he sold 1,100 of them. Before I brought the Zoogle back to the Muncie area, I'd sold about 100,000, Caudill said. But he didn't expect a response anywhere close to that from the Muncie community. One response that most of Caudill's tournament participants did share, though, was one that considered Caudill the top player. There's someone out there who can beat Willie, confided a crew member. But it's just a matter of time before Willie finds him, and when he does, he'll hire him.'E by Nancy Neff Zoogle 115 Many family members stretch in hopes of getting a better view of their graduate.

It also meant becoming a member of the working force, or for some, graduating to the unemployment lines. ' Parents and grandparents began filling the Quadrangle ear- ly in hopes of getting close to the Arts Terrace to get a better view of their graduate. As the graduates beg an filing in from Emens Auditorium, cheers from the audience--as well as the graduates--could be heard. Many graduates donned little signs on the mortar boards that expressed their sentiments on the final to beat all finals. Others wore rock star buttons on their gowns to break the monotony of the otherwise academic, and oftentimes monotonous, affair. Names were called one by one.

A soggy affair paused to wave, some proudly held their degree up for everyone to see. Most, however, hurried back to their seats. To the dismay of many graduates, red folders were plac- ed into their hands without their degree intact. Instead, there was a letter from the Alumni Office asking for donations. Diplomas, it seemed, would be sent later. But the graduates were not the only ones being recognized for their achievements. Honorary degrees were given to Wynetka Ann King Reynolds, chancellor of California State University, and Herbert Charles Brown, a 1979 Nobel prize winner. Mark Stokes, an Indianapolis marketing major and a Delta Tau Delta member, received the John Emens Award. The award is given to a student nominated by a faculty member, another student, or a campus organization for his or her contributions to the Univer- sity. Eighteen students were graduated summa cum laude, which requires a cumulative grade point average of 3.9 to 4.0. Another 25 students earned the honor of magna cum laude with a GPA of 3.8 to 3.899. Ninety students graduated cum laude with a GPA of 3.6 to 3.799. On this day, the good grades brought a little more sunshine to a day of drizzle. But when all was said and done, it was the con- gratulatory hug and kiss from mom and dad and the teary par- ting of close campus friendships that meant the most.

However, our economy is again, beginning to grow and it will continue to do so over the next five years if government can contain that deficit soon. By making allowances when predicting future economic situations and by examining the necessity of ex- isting programs, President Ford felt progress could be made with the federal budget. If a president proposes a budget, and his unemployment is off b one percent, the result could be a dleficit of S26 million, he said. There are also a number of social programs, started in the 1960s, that aren't necessarily essen- tial in the 1980s and 1990s. We can't af- ford to carry a program just because it's on the books. But the former president was just as concerned about what should be added to the books as he was about what should be taken from them. He did support President Reag an's efforts to create a 600-ship navy and his proposals for MX missle appropria- ed.

We're on the right path in negotiating an agreement on foreign policy with the Sovietsf' he said. A president has to make an honest effort on behalf of his country and the world. President Ford also allowed time for students to ask questions and voice some of their own opinions concerning issues a little closer to home. President Reagan's recent cuts in student finan- cial aid and the changes that have been made in existing loan repayment schedules were major student con- cerns. 'fl agree that a student should put up some of his or her own money, but I'm not sure on the amount, Ford said. He added that while he was in Con- gress, government financial aid had kept many students in school, but he was 'fvery disappointed with the default rate on repayment of student loans. He said if a student is going to bor- row money, he or she ought to be will- ing to pay it back and those who don't pay back what they borrow are depriving other students who also need financial help.

' Ball State students joined in the unification of Americans everywhere as the 'thrill of victory' became the national battlecry in the quest for athletic supremacy in the XXIII Olympiad. tudents filled residence hall and student center lounges, noses pressed as close as possible to the television tube set before them. The students weren't the run-of-the-mill college students and what they were watching wasn't the everyday televi- sion soap opera. The high school students were at- tending summer workshops in various fields on Ball State's cam- pus, including everything from com- puters and cheerleading to jour- 122 National nalism and tennis. The academic and athletic mix seemed somewhat appropriate during the summer weeks, for between workshop ses- sions and studying, students could be found glued before television sets watching the XXIII Olympiad. Many caught a glimpse of the likes of Mary Lou Retton or Carl Lewis between breaks, while others perched before the sets for con- tinuous coverage throughout their free time. The scene was one that could be seen repeated throughout America, but a group of journalism workshop students had a little deeper committ- ment to keeping up with the games in general, and gymnastics, in par- ticular. There, a symbol of spunk and youthful charisma, caught the group's attention. Mary Lou, Mary Lou, the vocal contingent yelled as the darl- ing of the games, Mary Lou Retton, appeared for her next performance in the gymnastics competition. A high school classmate to the group of students, the pride of association to the newly-found starling beamed on each of their faces as they shared in her joy of reaching a perfect score of ten.

American pride was beaming at its best, from every gold medal that was won to every effort that was given, a salute to modern-day heroes was sent by the American people. The message came through loud and clear for the USA athletes like Carl Lewis, an American 100-meter runner who captured the gold and Mary Decker, whose hand the elusive gold was snatched from by a controversial trip and fall during her race for the medal. For still others, like diver Greg Louganis and swimmer Steve Lund- quist, the Olympics highlighted their already successful athletic achievements of the past. On camera, ABC interviews of the star swimmers went as smoothly as the famed Louganis breaking water from a dive. It was technical achievement behind the scenes that could have drawn a gold medal itself. Like the athletes hopes of cap- turing a gold medal, everything went as planned...thanks, in part, to 1980 Ball State graduate Amy Ahlersmeyer. Ahlersmeyer was the contact per- son behind the scene who coor- dinated reporter-athlete meetings for the news media. It's a chance of a lifetime, said Ahlersmeyer. I don't think I'll do anything in my entire career that will be comparable. Ahlersmeyer makes her career as coordinator of sports information for Indiana University-Purdue University at In- dianapolis CIUPUIJ. Ahlersmeyer worked from 7:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. daily as assistant press chief of swimming and diving during the Olympic competition.

His opponent, Walter Mondale, the former Vice- President under Jimmy Carter, had accepted the Democratic nomination after some strenuous opposition. Jesse Jackson had declared him soft on the rights of minorities but the party came together under the extraor- dinary oratory of New York Governor Mario Cuomo who rallied the party together in what was hailed as the speech of the century. But for the Democrats it was not to be. Reagan defeated Mondale in the greatest landslide of modern times. Mondale carried only his home state of Minnesota and the District of Columbia. Mondale reported after his humiliating defeat that he would never again run for public office. He is now a partner in the Washington office of a Chicago based law firm. Mondale made history, and perhaps in the most lasting effect of the election, changed the course of modern politics forever. In a widely debated move, Mondale selected as his running mate, Geraldine Ferraro, a con- gresswoman from Queens, New York. The first woman to be placed on a major party's ticket, the move was hailed by feminists and critized by less liberal Democrats. In the end the analysts said that it wouldn't have mat- tered. Reagan was swept into office on a rising tide of conservatism nationwide. He took up the call to lower taxes and rallied the country behind his ideas to lower the risk of nuclear war by promoting a strong defense. Mondale emphasized the ever escalating Reagan budget deficit but was unable to garner enough popular support behind his goals to lower the rate of unemploy- ment and insure basic minimum rights for all to capture the office. In the end, Mondale was judged to be a less competent user of the media than the former actor turned President. Media analysts will wonder for some time to come what made the public vote as they did, but the informed opi- nion will never overcome the lasting effects of the popular consensus. E National 125 ..

Craft said Shannon agreed to the stipulation and told her, Oh, no, we wouldn't change a thing, we like you launched a famed sexual just the way you are. discrimination suit against the former owners of a Kansas City, Two weeks after beginning her job at KMBC, a media consultant was MO,-, television StHti0f1' The Sllit, , hired to supervise her makeup and which is still awaiting final verdict, stemmed from charges that she was fired from an anchor position because she was considered unat- tractive by the station's manage- ment. At a presentation sponsored by Alpha Epsilon Rho, the journalism department, and the Student Pro- gramming Board, Craft chronicled the events of her career to a crowd of about 400 people in University Hall. Her speech, Television Newscasting: Is It Show Business? also gave serious insight to the inner-workings of broadcast jour- nalism. In an industry that is concerned with maintaining attractive images before the cameras, Craft continual- ly was forced to contend with bosses who placed significance on her middle-aged appearance thanwith news reporting. After graduating from the Univer- sity of Southern California in her early thirties, Craft was a weather girl at a television station in Salinas, Cal. Being a curvacious cutie before the warm front wasn't challenging, and eventually she landed jobs at a CBS affiliate station in San Francisco and a nine-month stint on CBS Sports Spectacular, where she received her first cosmetic makeover. Television broadcasting is very concerned about appearance, Craft said. I lost the ability to be myself when I was made over. At age 36, Craft won a satisfying job and a satisfied audience at a small Santa Barbara station where I could be myself... and no one ever said anything about my ap- pearancef' When Craft was pursued for a job offer from Ridge Shannon, station manager of KMBC-TV in Kansas Ci- ty, she accepted as long as her ap- pearance wouldn't be altered. If you want to change my ap- pearance, if you want someone young and nubile, please don't hire wardrobe. According to Craft, the consultant told her that it's not important to do a good story or get involved with the community, but to create an illu- sion of credibility by her on-camera appearance. I lost the ability to be myself when I was made over. --Christine Craft ln Aug. 1981, nine months after ac- cepting the job at KMBC, Craft was demoted from news anchor to reporter status, because audience research proved her too old, unat- tractive, and not deferential enough to men. The conclusion was found, Craft explained, after biased films were shown to a lop-sided cross-section of the community to see which news anchors were most popular with au- diences. In the films of Craft, she was call- ed a dog, and a mutt, and jeered because she was from Califor- nia, she said. The 40-year-old Craft filed suit against Metromedia, Inc., the former owners of KMBC, charging sexual discrimination, perpetration of fraud in hiring, and violation of the equal pay act. At KMBC, Craft said she was the only anchor who also covered stories in the field, and made 535,000 in comparison with the 380,000 salary of her male co-anchor. In Aug. 1983, a federal jury in Kansas City, Mo., awarded Craft 3500,000 in damages for the sexual discrimination and fraud charges. The equal pay act violation was dismissed by the court. On Oct. 31, U.S. District Judge Joseph Stevens Jr. overturned the S500,000 award and demanded a new trial on the perpetration of fraud charge after the jury recommended that KMBC be held liable for sexual discrimination. Stevens called the new trial because he said the jury had receiv- ed incomplete instructions concern- ing the fraud charge and because of overwhelming trial publicity. Craft won S335,000 in the second trial. Metromedia appealed the case which now is resting in the 8th U.S. Circuit Court--one step below the Supreme Court. Craft said she would take the case to the Supreme Court if she had to. She expressed concern about the treatment of television news media consultants who view news reporting as product instead of journalism. I am concerned about media con- sultants who say, 'I think we ought to give people what they want, ' Craft said. Our job isn't to gratify you or make you feel warm and cud- dly. It is to give you an overview of the day's events. She said that a 30-minute newscast contains only 13 minutes of news, and the rest is chatter and adver- tisements. During the trial, Craft's col- leagues braved possibilities of being blacklisted from the field and she was supported by both male and female anchors. Craft denied popular opinion which stated she pursued the case for publicity or to land the next big job. Since the trial beg an in 1981, Craft's only job offer came when she was assigned to cover the Democratic Election Committee in San Francisco. Craft expressed a sense of obliga- tion not only to male and female journalists, but to people who don't have the opportunity to speak up for themselves. What about the average American citizen who doesn't have a chance t to resort discriminationl? Craft asked t e audience. I don't believe in the trickle down theory of civil rights. Craft said she enjoyed working on the lecture circuit because it gives her a chance to say what I think. Social change only occurs through free speech and debate, she said.

As a delegate to the 1985 Na- tional Model United Nations INMUNJ, New York City, I was overwhelmed. The United Nations is not meant to provide solutions to world pro- blems but to provide a forum for discussion in hopes of ensuring peaceful coexistence, Allan Keyes, Ambassador, United States Mission, addressed the General Assembly at the first meeting of the simulation. Gathered in the UN building, students from universities across the nation representing countries throughout the world occupied the seats of leading diplomats. Nine students represented Greece as Ball State delegates to the NMUN. Dr. John Rouse, professor of political science and faculty advisor to the NMUN explained, The pro- gram gives students some practical experience--it lets them participate in negotiation procedures. It also gives them the experience of meeting and matching wits against other college students--students are judged on their performance. Another benefit is the experience of going east and seeing New York--for many it's their first time. Research on Greek foreign policy began in November as delegates prepared for the simulation, April 2- 7. Papandreou, the Prime Minister of Greece, is unpredictable, head delegate Don Snemis, senior explain- ed to the group. As a member of NATO, Greece is a U.S. ally. However, it often votes outside of the Western bloc and supports Soviet policy. Our main objective is to stay in character. Students acquainted themselves with Greek positions relevant to their respective UN committees. Two resolutions were proposed to the NMUN. MeChelle Meyer, junior, Special Political Committee, ad- dressed the question of Cyprus. Steve Snyder, senior, First Commit- tee tDisarmament and related mat- ters? attempted to declare the Balkan States a nuclear-free zone. A resolution states the general feelings of a nation. It suggests what should be done about a specific problem and how it should be im- plemented, explained sophomore Eric Farnsworth, Commission on Human Settlements. Anthony Miller, junior, Third Com- mittee CSocial, Humanitarian, Culturali, expanded, At first I was real intimidated in creating resolu- tions. It got easier as the week went on. I learned how to caucus from watching other people. Caucussing is intellectual fighting--it's a matter of countries or blocs getting together to decide what they're going to support or how they're going to vote on an issue, Meyer summarized. Aside from acquiring diplomatic and improved communication skills, delegates experienced New York City--many for the first time. I had never been to New York before, stated Miller. I knew it would be exponentially different from other cities I've seen, like Chicago. It was really exciting. You hear about the things and places that are there but we actually saw them--we rode the subways, saw the bag ladies and rode the Statten Island ferry past the Statue of Liberty--I was awed. Chinatown, Greenwich Village, Times Square, the Empire State Building and the David Letterman Show were some highlights of the trip. Letterman was great, exclaim- ed Tony Meyer, junior, World Food Council. He asked if there was anyone from Indiana in the audience and we started yelling, 'Ball State, Ball State!' He said, 'Since you're from Ball State I'll be sure and speak very slowly? It was neat be- ing inside the studio. Other delegates included Camille Ballard, junior, Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe, Phillip St. John, sophomore, Sixth Committee Clegall and Skip Sheeler, junior, Economic and Social Council Plenary. Delegates returned to Muncie with a better understanding of themselves and their world. I was able to experience the frustration, anger, and sense of fulfillment in- volved in negotiations as well as see the real UN, summarized Meyer. I'm more aware of what's going on in the political world--they have breakdowns in communication like we do.

P., ' 3'Zgl,9x+ 'Frat-packing' denied, senate seats filled After a web of confusion and accusations that three Student Senate Off-Campus Caucus seats were filled through bias, the caucus and its chairman were cleared of any wrongdoing in May. Jason Shoults, Off-Campus Caucus chairman and Sigma Phi Epsilon member, had been ac- cused of frat-packing --the pre- judiced approval of his own fraternity members instead of more qualified students for positions--when he filled the three senate seats with fellow fraternity members in April. The three fraternity members listed little or no qualifications on applications while three other students indicated numerous achievements. Among the applicants not chosen were sophomore Elizabeth Owens, an Emens Scholar and honors student, who noted involvement with the Religious Council and Educa- tional Conference, and junior Jon Price, who listed membership in three honorary fraternities. Evelyn Sue Moody, a non- traditional student, presented a resume in addition to her ap- plication which described her organization, communication, and leadership abilities. 130 Campus Shoults denied the accusations by saying his decisions were based on their qualifications and who showed up at two previous senate meetings. He noted that the three fraternity members attended the meetings while Moody and Price did not. He said he was unsure whether Owens attended the meetings. Some of the applicants said they weren't told to attend meetings. Moody told the Daily News that she didn't attend the meetings because she didn't know they were scheduled. Student Senate president Dave Langham said he told about 30 of the applicants to attend meetings to become acquainted with the pending legislation. However he said he told the students it wasn't necessary to attend meetings prior to their approval into the senate. However, several senators said they were told by former Elec- tions Board Chairman Scott Yarger not to list qualifications on their applications because many senate seats remained un- filled after the SA elections on March 26. Yarg er admitted he may have told some students to write only their name and address on the applications. A probe into the issue by the Student Senate Investigations Committee was sparked after the senators were turned down because of lack of listed qualifications. Tim Tuttle, chairman of the In- vestigations Committee, an- nounced that Shoults was declared innocent by the com- mittee because there are no rules broken due to the fact that there are no rules to be broken. The three fraternity members, sophomores Paul Adams and John Skelton, and junior Robert Sabina, retained their positions in the senate, because it's past time that anything can be done because senate has approved them, Langham said. Shoults said that while the fraternity members were more than competent, they're going to be working harder because I'm going to be riding them. Three remaining senate seats were later filled by Owens and Price. Sophomore Robert Cochrane also was seated.

Player pleads guilt Marcus Lacey, a former Ball State basketball player, was sentenced in May to two years in prison for the stabbing of Cardinal football player Mike Davis at an off-campus party in October, 1984. The Gary resident pleaded guilty in April to the charge of battery with a deadly weapon, a Class C felony, and therefore waived his right to a jury trial. Robert Reed, director of the Office of Traffic, Safety, and Security, told the Daily Newsthat Davis tried to break up a fight inside the house and Lacey became involved. Davis later was stabbed in the lower right ab- domen when he asked Lacey to leave the party. A pocket knife was recovered by University Police. Campus police transported Lacey and Davis to Ball Memorial Hospital where they were treated and releas- ed. Lacey was taken to jail and releas- ed the same day when necessary paperwork wasn't completed on time. Police issued a warrant in Muncie and Gary for Lacey's arrest, and his search lasted for three weeks until he was taken into custody in Lake County. Lacey's attorney, Geoffrey Rivers, and the prosecuting attorney both agreed that there was a miscom- munication after the warrant was fil- ed. Rivers told the Daily Newsthat Lacey wasn't out on the street. The gist was that he should go home to Gary. Lacey was convicted and sentenc- ed in Delaware County Superior Court 1.

I think everyone should put on another muffler, he said. As a result, some dedicated students expressed muffled shivers, groans, and curses, as they marched the great white way to classes. Other students remained holed up in their residences in an attempt to keep warm. 132 Campus The severe temperatures which reached 24 below zero were Muncie's coldest temperatures of the century. Winds of 25 to 35 miles per hour kept wind chill factors between 70 and 80 below zero. Many schools and universities were closed for extended periods across the state. At Ball State, an increase of drifting snows and cold temperatures later caused the cancellation of one day of class and the postponement of several classes and campus events.

Cyanide preferred y 700 to fallout Fears of nuclear war erupted in a nationwide controversy in October, when a Brown University student proposal raised moral issues of suicide rather than death by radioac- tive fallout. The proposal, conceived by students Jason Salzman and Chris Ferguson, suggested that the Health Center stock cyanide pills so students could choose an alternative to death by fallout in event of a nuclear war. A petition with the names of about 700 undergraduates from the school in Providence, R.I., requested the in- clusion of the issue on the October student council election ballot. Salzman and Ferguson reportedly got the idea from On The Beach, ff sr a novel depicting a group of sur- vivors living in Australia after a nuclear war. The book, which later was made into a popular 1960's film, shows doctors distributing poisonous pills to people because of ap- proaching fallout. The proposal met with strong debate from doctors at BroWn's health facility who viewed support of the idea as a denial of the Hip- pocratic Oath. Salzman told the Associated Press that even if the proposal was turned down, the issue would force students to face nuclear war and the effect it could have on their lives. The proposal later was rejected during the student council election. E by Hannah Kirchner ,mg .

It often seemed that students were caught holding the line and the scenario was just one of many associated with the University's Office of Financial Assistance. It was often linked to the sticky situations students found as they got more and more wrapped up in Ball State's red tape. The whole process is slow moving, said Connie Johnson, Shelbyville sophomore. And once you get there, you are too rushed and receive too little attention. It was a common complaint, and one of which not only the students were aware. It's true, there is a lot of red tape involved for the students, said Dr. Clarence Casazza, student financial assistance director. It's frustrating for us, too, he added, but when you're dealing with S30 million in taxpayer and foundation monies, there is just so much documentation that is required. The hard and constant work was evident just by taking a quick glance at Casazza's desk. Four or five leg al pads filled with notes and in- formation were systematically stacked at the direct0r's right hand for easy reference. Numerous folders, strewn haphazardly across the unused portion of work space, forms and still other notes kept the desktop virtually hid- den from sight.

Any function that has a cen- tralized responsibility such as we do will have some aggrava- tion and stress involved, he said. Still, financial aid workers heard little more than grumbl- ings from most students, even though those students were few in number. Of course, there were times when tempers rose above nor- mal, like in September, when there were long lines waiting for loans from banks, more long lines of people waiting to hear about Pell grants, and still other, longer lines for those wanting jobs. We just can't eliminate the waiting in line, Casazza said. It's a nature of the game ...almost. The goal of the financial aids office was to make sure each student got the amount of money they were able to receive. But many students could attest to problems. I found out by accident that I could have had my entire education paid because of my dad's affiliation with the armed services, Johnson said. I was refunded tuition for the current year but I couldn't get any money back for what I had paid my freshman year. The school doesn't publicize what is available to the students to be of much benefit, she added. They leave it up to the individual. Like most students, Marianne Juscik, Hammond freshman, had her own tale to tell. For her sister, it was a horror story. My sister sent in her ap- plication and the University lost it, Juscik said. By the time Juscik's found out about the lost form the deadline had passed and her sister went without financial aid. For the Juscik's, who had three students attending col- lege, the misfortune meant having to spend a fortune. Casazza knows of fortunes well. BSU students shared a pot of about S30 million during 1984-85 in the form of grants, employment opportunities and loans. The money, much of which comes from the government, private foundations, corpora- tions and the University itself, went quickly. Many Huneligible status students were left in lines gram was growing in populari- ty. Although few students thought about the consequences of failing to repay the money they borrowed, the state was making plans for a new, no nonsense approach to the pro- blem.

Indiana was no exception. House Bill 1180 passed the Senate April 1 by a 38-11 vote, pro- hibiting bars, private clubs and restaurants from selling alcohol at reduced prices and from pro- moting two-for-one specials dur- ing happy hour. In an effort to make the holiday season safer, Muncie members of the Delaware County License Bureau Association decided to give the proposed legislation a trial run for the month of December by agreeing to eliminate happy hours at local bars. However, the gentleman's agreement proved futile when some bars returned to happy hour specials after only one day. The whole purpose of the agreement was to ban happy hour -- drink specials and discounted li- quor -- and to make public our ef- forts to reduce drunken driving, said Mike Whitlock, Christopher's manager. But Whitlock said the voluntary agreement was disorganized and miscommunication and different interpretations of it caused pro- blems from the beginning. The terms were set to begin on December 1, Whitlock said. So, Christopher's discontinued happy hour prices on that day only to find that the others weren't going to start until the 3rd, after the weekend. On the 3rd, Bandido's was still running happy hour prices so Chi Chi's went back. Mugly's con- tinued their 'Import Night' which wasn't two-for-one but did involve 136 Issues Mllliwlllfffbll--1l,W'2 3V'Fl', ' v ' ,' ' 5 V' , ' ' ' ',l,v,g-l'lyq ,,':,yu, ,, w s , ,' 1 '- alll' . iso, , a price reduction. So, some nights were cheaper and others were regular price. It was all very con- fusing. Whitlock went back to happy hour within the week but said Christophers' happy hour clientele had dropped and he blamed the resultslon the confusion of the situation. The intentions were good and Pm all for trying to reduce the number of accidents caused by drinking and driving, Whitlock backed out of the agreement. We're trying to be responsible merchants instead of coming off like money-grubbing, evil peo- ple, said David Cain, Butter- fields' assistant manager. The 46- Z. A if i 'S - IIDIIN1 .

Issues 137 . t -N QW Happy hours get sobered up H continued Something does need to be done, Colter said. But nothing is going to work unless the people themselves are better educated about the problem and are made to realize that they are as respon- sible as the bar owners for what could happen when they drink too much. Colter blamed Bandido's and Mugly's for the other owners' backouts since both bars failed to acknowledge some of the agree- rnent's provisions. Bandido's said they would send it on to their corporate of- ficers and get back to me, Colter said. But they just passed it off as a joke and never did anything because the people higher up never knew anything about it. On the night of Dec. 3rd, they didn't run two-for-one specials but they offered drinks at half price, he added. Mugly's also con- tinued their discount specials when beer prices were supposed to remain constant. So, Chi Chi's went back, Christopher's went back five days later, King's went back after seven days and Butter- field's followed. But if the House concurs with the Senate's changes in the bill all of the owners will have to abide by the new law, whether they agree with the conditions or not, and Colter feared the legislation wouldn't end there. There are many bills being proposed that will effect the business of selling liquor. One bill ish tern. . emma provides for the establishment of territories restricting the areas in which retailers can buy liquor. Another one calls for an increase in liquor license prices. My point is that most of these proposals are aimed at bars, he continued. I think our legislators should also take into consideration all of the convenient stores and grocery stores that don't have to have any kind of license to sell beer or wine. And what about all the liquor sold in liquor stores? As bar owners, we're not against trying to curb drunken driving. We just don't think we're the ones that should have to bear the brunt of everything being done to accomplish it.

Forty-six of rock's big- gest superstars gathered for what would be one of rock's remembered moments. It turned out to be a mo- ment that would be long remembered by Ball State students and Americans everywhere. Led by producer Quincy Jones, the group, USA for Africa C United Support of Artists for Africal, gathered after the American Music Awards to record the song We Are the World, which was written by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie, The idea for the song came from Harry Belefonte, who thought the time was right to do something more for the cause after seeing what the British ensemble, Band Aid had done with their song Do They Know It's Christmas. The session, which was held in A8zM Records studios, lasted for 10 hours. Besides all the press photographers, Home Box Office had cameras at the session covering the event for a half-hour broadcast that would cover the behind the scenes story. The group hoped to raise over S200 million to help starving people in Africa. Plans also were made to release an album, We Are The World, which would feature the title track, in addition to Tears Are Not Enough, from the Canadian Band Aid group, and songs by Huey Lewis and the News, the Pointer Sisters, Kenny Rogers, Chicago, Steve Perry, Tina Turner, and Prince and the Revolu- tion. Prince wasn't present for the We Are The World session, but he did offer to play a guitar track for the song. Before the 10-hour ses- sion was over, most of the superstar participants could be humbly seen ask- ing for autographs of their idols for themselves and friends. They left the session with a feeling of ac- complishment...knowing they had pulled together to help a worthwhile cause.E ENTERT AINMENT gzine flute M59 En tertainment 141 wh whafs A potpounni of the best: and worst of the year' UFHANKIE SAYS... h you SHOULD SEE X became such a popular t-shirt what Gun-,by-S P Q phrase that it spawned the doing today' Q Q response, Who cares? by The popular 5, those who wished the rock animated W group would make permanent Chafactef of residence in Hollywood. the 503 was brought to life GOOD SEX... once again in came out of the bedroom and the mindS and onto the airwaves as Dr. Ruth hearts of Ball Westheimer's unique and entertaining radio talk shows became the new forum for those who didn't find out everything they wanted to know about sex from Woody Allen.

Academics Division 147 - ust one of Infos certainties If The paradox was unleashed once again as the Board of Trustees increased tuition first summer session. The Universi- ty needed money, but students needed affordable education. The increase meant in-state students taking 12-17 hours had to pay S488 rather than 3454, a seven percent increase from the cost in 1983-84. Stan Wadman, director of finances and assistant treasurer, said the fee in- creases were necessary to meet expenses only partially covered by the state. Every other year we make a request to the legislature for funds, he said. We make an expenditure budget for the coming year based on inflation and fixed costs such as utilities. He added that the legislature based funding on the principle that the state should pay two thirds of the cost and students should be responsible for the other third. PROBLEMS Often financial problems sent students to the Bursar's office for help with tuition. Frank Krill, Col- umbia City junior, explains his cur- rent difficulty to Bursar cashier Joyce Hurst. 148 Tuition Hike The state gives a recom- mendation based on this con- cept, Wadman said, 'tbut the Board of Trustees actually sets the fees. After we receive ap- propriations, we make a final determination of the amount of funds needed and raise the fees accordingly. Although the cost.rose, Dr. Joseph Naumcheff, undergraduate admission and orientation director, didn't think the hike would greatly af- fect undergraduate enrollment. Tuition increases are a com- mon thing throughout the state, he said. The students it might affect are those who would be able to save money by staying home and going to a closer campus. But combined with President Reagan's financial aid cuts, some students said the increase may cause them to alter their lifestyles. Even before the in- crease,Paula Shannon, Chester- field sophomore, had been working as a K-Mart super- visor to support her education and had to commute 20 miles a day because she couldn't afford housing on or near campus. I don't like the hike, she said. I'll definitely have to keep the job I have now and maybe even consider working on campus. I hope to get some financial aid. If that doesn't work out, I may even have to sit out a quarter. Pam Wilson, Monon senior, said she hoped the hike wouldn't interrupt her plans to go to graduate school. It hasn't changed my plans yet, but I'm afraid it might in the future, she said. I might have to get a job instead of continuing my education after graduation. t I think it's a shame they have to raise tuition, she add- ed. There are always alter- native solutions to problems and I wonder if there may have been an alternative to this one. 5 by Eric MacDougaI1 The students it might affect are those who would be able to save money by staying home and going to a closer campus ll -Dr. Joseph Na umcheff undergraduate admission and orientation director x s . -r 31 r- -Z lohn S. metzg ...ani lohn S. metzger iohn S. metzger V!

It was covered with three rows of children's faces drawn with crayon, and under each face was a name. It wasn't so unusual for an elementary education major, except that this card came directly from England... Karen Musser, Goshen junior, spent Fall Quarter stu- dent teaching in England as part of the EXEL program overseas. It's pretty much the same because you get credit for the same classes and you have to do the same things, like lesson plans, she said. But when you do your participation here, you spend about 2 hours in the school 4 days a week. In England, you get to spend all day in the school. Here you only see part of what the children are like, she added. So I think it's a much better experience because you get to see every aspect of the children. The 15 students in the pro- gram Fall Quarter earned a normal class load of 16 hours, but their courses weren't quite as structured as during a regular quarter. You don't have textbooks, notebooks, tests or anything, she said. On Fridays we had seminars and we talked about problems we were having or things that went well. So it wasn't classes in the sense classes are here. We had to keep records of what we did on the weekends in our daily logbook, and part of our grade came from that, she added. The students spent the first five weeks in the schools and they lived with host families. Evenings were usually free, but every other weekend had to be spent with the family. I loved my family, she said. Andrew was 5, Louise was 8 and John and Mary were their parents. They treated me like they would have an older sister. I met John's parents and stayed with them about 5 days when I was traveling on my own. The last three weeks the students were free to travel, and although most went to the continent, Musser chose to stay in England. You spend most of your time around London, but there's so much more of England to see, she said. I really fell in love with the whole country. Most of the students were on- ly a short bus or train ride from London and on day trips they would run into other Ball State students who were spen- ding the quarter at the London Centre. There were several Ball State students at one concert I went to in London, she said.

Sites on the tour included Paris, Lucerne, Florence, Rome, Venice and Amsterdam. Photos courtesy of London Centre London Centre 151 WINDY CITY RIVAL The final stop on the tour brought students to Amsterdam where the town's most famous sym- bols -- windmills -- were captured on film. The windmills captured the hearts of many students, as well. England experience continued For some students it was an opportunity to travel, but for most, the chance to see another country's educational system and learn from their methods, was more important. They have different ideas in developing children's artistic abilities, she said. For in- stance, they introduce f geometry concepts in the first grade, whereas here you don't do that until sixth grade. There were other differences, though, and not all of them were academic. The children are more polite and they all wear uniforms, she said. I liked the uniforms except that when we had PE class I had to stand there for 15 minutes and tie ties because the 5-, 6- and 7-year- olds couldn't tie the ties they were required to wear. The differences never caused Musser any problems, but some students encountered language barriers. One girl who had a new boy from Asia in her class was try- ing to figure out how much English he knew, she said. She kept asking him what col- or his pants were and even though his pants were gray he kept saying green. She finally figured out 'pants' to them meant underwear. The children grew very close to their student teachers because they were from another country, Musser added. You're totally new, whereas the teacher from England, she's just from England? she said. I went back the day before we left for the States and as I walked in the room they cried out 'Miss Musser, Miss Musserl' They were so ex- cited and they said they would come see me in America. I would like to go back to see them eventually, she add- ed. In the meantime, the card hung on her bulletin board, always a reminder of the students, family and country she had come to love so welliby Angie Fullenkamp of' i . Q F !

Although students do work with patients at Ball Memorial Hospital occasionally, it makes everyday classes a lot more in- teresting, said Dr. James Griffin, physical therapy pro- gram director. The classroom simulations gave students experience they couldn't get from a textbook. These labs help you to ap- preciate what the patient feels during treatment, said Theresa Minnick, Leo junior. Lab sessions were conducted on a rotating schedule so that every student could familiarize himself with all of the equip- ment. One group will work with the ultrasound device while another will work with traction and a third will work with the parafin bath, Griffin said. Then they trade off in the next session. The Speech Hearing and Language Clinic also gave students first-hand experience in treating human disorders. Dr. Richard Artes, professor of speech, audiology and pathology, said one of the clinic's major goals was to determine student interest , levels, but it actually served a dual purpose. Students could learn faster with first-hand experience while also serving the com- munity by providing therapy for individuals with speech and hearing disorders. graduate training. A student who finishes a Master's degree goes through eight clinical experiences, Artes said. They generally work in the clinic each quarter starting their junior year. They then participated in two internships their final year. The first involved working in a hospital or community speech center ,and the second required work in a public school. But practical experience wasn't confined to campus. A cultural anthropology class was conducted in Jamaica to educate students about a culture far removed from their own. l We try to offer the class every other winter, said Dr. James Coffin, professor of an- thropology. We meet three times a week to discuss the data everyone has been study- ing and gathering. Coffin said students get that data from interviewing natives. Then, during class, they study those particular aspects of the society each student has chosen to research, which range from the treatment of the old to Rastafarian culture. But whether the practical ex- perience came from the native villages of Jamaica or from laboratory and clinical equip- ment on campus, the results were often better than what could be achieved from more traditional classroom toolsiby Eric MacDouga11 Practical Classes 157 .i -.M GUIDANCE Once a student gets into Ftoom 6, he or she often feels relieved, but sometimes classes are full and one has to start the process over again.

Then do your time standing in the notoriously boring line in front of Room 6 to see if your re- quests were actual possibilities for the upcoming quarter. It was a never-ending process -- and one most students dreaded. But somewhere in the midst of all the classes taken lurked a favorite, and most commonly, a least favorite class. And to get on the popular rosters, or to try and avoid the inevitably dull, but required ones as long as they could, students endured the hassles. According to the 1984-85 tallies provided for students by curricular advisers, Human Health, otherwise know as HSC 160, was the course that most often appeared on undergraduate enrollment forms for all three quarters. The request column was almost always crowded with at least 100 students over what was allowed. Out of 29 seats available in each section, as many as 173 students asked for admission. But Dr. Herbert Jones, professor of physiology and human health and instruc- tor for the course, refused to take much of the credit for the class's popularity. I think most students take the class because it's very per- sonable. Right now, health seems to be more important to students. And that's what real- ly makes the course very real and, therefore, very popular. However, some students did consider Dr. Jones a valuable asset to the class and enrolled more for the instructor than for the subject. I really liked Dr. Jones, but I wasn't interested in the sub- ject at all, said Donna Leaird, Peru junior. He's definitely the best prof I've had here. Curricular adviser Michael McCauley said a c1ass's popularity couldn't be pinned down to one certain common factor. You can't always go by statistics, McCauley said. Some classes are required for majors. Others are general courses students take to fill elective requirements. Many times, the ones that seem to be popular are chosen simply because of the time they're of- fered, convenience or for the workload invovledf' Health 160 wasn't the only general study class that ap- peared on too many class schedules. Students also show- ed an interest in finance, although, more often than not, it wasn't a personal one. Offer- ing a seating limit of 80-85, Personal Finance 110 attracted 256 hopeful students. I had to take it for the hours, said Dean Topp, Franceville junior. I think it will help me to make better financial decisions when I'm out of school, but the classroom was so big I never could ask a lot of questions. Large requests were also made for volleyball courses, with 116 students trying for on- ly 25 spaces available Autumn Quarter. But the weightlifting class had to be dropped in the spring when only one person signed up for the course. Mark Clem, Anderson junior, took weightlifting Winter quarter but found that time and other commitments kept him from taking the next one. It forced me to exercise, but it was tiring after working all day, Clem said. I usually dreaded going, but I took it mainly because it worked into my schedule. I had an hour to kill, so I thought, 'Why not pick up some PE credits! But a full schedule kept me from continu- ing with the advanced course. So the stats didn't always add up to a clear picture of which classes were favorites and which weren't. Most of the time, students took what was available when it was conve- nient. Many courses just couldn't be judged by the number of students enrolled in them.

DRAFTING In their introductory course, in- dustrial technology students train- ed for the first four weeks and then did test drawings to expand their skills. Once students became proficient, they could technically do a project on a com- puter that would take less time to do than on a drafting board. john S. metzger TECHNOLOGY Computers are technical enough, but few students ever see how technical they really are. Any student interested in computer graphics could take introductory courses, but most of the classes were filled by in- dustrial technology, architecture, and computer science majors. it , t ' . 5 Fl, Q ' 'Q 7 l' , .ft - Ki ,fir 'x ., g l o iohn S. metzgor I V 'XS' If ll' Ill 160 Computer Graphics - raphic encounter with computers H It sure beats making a mess on paper and and then starting all over again vs -David Sh eon graphics p lab director 3, ss, ,:?fgS . A light blue, Burger Queen french fry box tumbled over and over, rolling from side to side, front to back. The hand that was tossing it never touch- ed the three-dimensional im- age, but guided it by buttons on a small black box. Suddenly the rotation stopped and the screen the box had just danced across went blank. Another of the new computer graphics system's demo pro- grams was complete. Funding allocations from the state legislature had made the system's installation a reality for Fall Quarter. We were fairly lucky, said David Sheon, graphics lab director. We had the proposal ready when the legislature was ready to spend some money on high-tech items. Faculty members were train- ed on the system in Fall Quarter workshops and classes opened to students Winter Quarter. Although the new pro- gram was a tremendous asset to existing curriculum for ar- chitecture and design majors, any student interested in com- puter graphics could enroll in the courses offered. But the demand for the three introductory classes, one each in the industrial technology, ar- chitecture, and computer science departments, was more than the University was prepared to handle. Sheon said they had to open a second section for the architec- ture class and more sections would have been filled if they had had the faculty. Students love it, he said. It sure beats making a mess on paper and then starting all over again. I also think a lot of them realize that it is very im- portant to have the background. I took the class because I knew the experience would help me in getting a job. ltts more work than I thought it would be, but I love the class, said Mount Vernon senior Clay Mar- tin. On the Computer Aided Design and Drafting system KCADDJ, everything is drawn to scale with a maximum design area of 68 miles square. The two- and three-dimensional system can create 16 million colors, although only 256 can be used at one time. Barry Lewis, Chesterton senior, said the first four weeks ofthe industrial technology class were straight training sessions followed by test draw- ings to expand skills. Even though, technically, a project should take you less time on the computer than it would on a drafting board, it's about the same until you become proficient, Lewis said. With practice, students will be able to turn what would be three to four hours of work on a drafting board into only about an hour of work on a graphics system. Though computer graphics training has enhanced Univer- sity curricula and is ad- vantageous to students seeking employment, Sheon said the new programs wouldn't become an integral part of the architecture prog ram. We are not ever going to force a student to do computer graphics, he said. A com- puter is a tool. Some people can use it, others don't want to. But, on the other hand, Sheon said the University owes it to students to make sure they are computer literate, so a basic class will probably be required.

I wanna get physical. . . the tape blared while 21 women lifted their knees and then their legs high to the beat of the music. Aerobics was one of the more popular classes in the Depart- ment of Physical Education, but many of the 21 present wouldn't have been there if six credit hours of physical educa- tion weren't required for graduation. Gym classes are required for the same reason they are in high school, said Larry Beck, Admissions director. There needs to be some effort made toward physically educating students because most won't do it on their own. Though students didn't seem too excited about the required physical education hours, Beck said most really just con- sidered it a minor inconve- nience. At least it's not like it was in high school where you had to take it for a grade and have it affect your grade point average, since you couldn't take it credit or no credit, said Veda Backman, In- dianapolis junior. But even so, I don't think it should be a ma- jor concern. I think academics should. Freshmen enrolling for the 1985-86 academic year needed four physical education credits, instead of the previously re- quired six, and they could no longer choose what all four of those hours would be. One hour was set aside for the Principles of Fitness course and one for a fitness building activity. Beck said more structure was need- ed if less hours were to be re- quired. The Principles of Fitness course defines the benefits, ad- vantages and disadvantages of physical fitness, the best way to go about becoming physical- ly fit and various disease fac- tors that can be either at- tenuated, put in remission or actually avoided by proper ex- ercise, said Dr. Duane Eddy, physical education department chairman. Dr. Eddy added that the physical building activities started at a low level and built up to a more difficult exercise program by showing students the steps to follow for getting into proper physical condition. The remaining two hours could be filled with any depart- mental course of a student's choice, excluding the seven courses considered to be recreational, such as bowling. Some students liked the change in requirements. Randy Studt, Connersville senior, said, I like the idea that they're structuring it a little bit dif- ferently. They're making it so it's going to be more of a physical education situation in- stead of just, 'Let's take under- water basketweaving because itls a skill underwater. Ball State didn't offer under- water basketweaving, but it did offer swimnastics, which allow- ed a student to become physically conditioned through water exercise. If the outdoors was more appealing, cross country skiing or tennis were better choices. However, for the less athletic types, bad- minton, roller skating and hatha yoga were always available. But no matter how much ef- fort a class required, everyone had their time to put in and the 21 bodies that were high- stepping to the beat just a half hour before, had theirs. Bent at the waist now, with resting arms dangling downward, they endured what had to be en- dured for the sake of a diploma.

OUTSIDE READINGS Some human sexuality classes re- quired students to participate in course activities outside the classroom. Many students browsed through adult book stores, visited Blackford Theatre -- an X-rated movie house, or visited gay bars and taverns in the Muncie area.

Some students even thought the courses would help them better their own children. 154 Sex Classes 'j TOC6yfS Earlu zmwmlhf 1 Netessauiyatior . n 7 regard to - ,xx Everyone feels free to talk and give their ideas...it can be very revealing, but it's usually not embarrassing. 77 hen class zsn t a dirty word K , ' , . if The interior of the bar was dimly lit, but stools in front of a slick counter gleamed faintly, guiding the two students. As they hooked their heels beneath the rungs and glanced around, they became aware of couples moving slowly on the dance floor. The surroundings were no different than any other bar, but one characteristic was. The couples were all males. The students were doing their homework -- an activity assignment for a human sex- uality class. I went to a gay bar for one of my activities, said Kate Redding, Indianapolis junior. I was the only girl and I felt like a stranger, but they were willing to accept me, as oppos- ed to me bringing two gays to a straight bar. It was definitely a good learning experience. Dr. David Marini, professor of physiology and health science, required students in his sexuality classes to do three activities following his princi- ple that education about sex- uality wou1dn't be beneficial unless it could be applied to the real world. Other students visited Blackford Theatre, which shows X-rated films, various adult bookstores or attended seminars on sexuality. I didn't care for Blackford at all, said Kathy Purvis, Elkhart senior. We stayed for about a half hour and left. I can't see how anyone could get anything out of it. But I guess it was beneficial in a way because now I know what it's like. Marini felt requiring students to do the activities gave them a ready-made excuse for in- vestigating something they wouldn't under normal cir- cumstances. Many students have misperceptionsj' he said, and this gives them the opportuni- ty, by seeing something firsthand, to prove or disprove their ideas. Alumni of Marini's classes spread the word about the ac- tivities and the prospect of an interesting and fun class was the reason most students gave for taking a sexuality course. But other reasons were more complex. In one class, I had four women who had been raped, Marini said. They didn't understand what had happened to them and they really wanted a reorientation toward their sexuality. j However, most students' reasons were somewhere bet- ween the two extremes. Pm engaged, said Amy Kreeger, Portland junior, and it's a good way to bring up the subject of sexuality. Kreeger's fiance sat in on her class every week. Whatever the reason, sexuali- ty classes were popular in every department. Some were more specialized, as in the physiology department, while others, such as Marini's class, covered all aspects of the sub- ject. But regardless of the area, the emphasis was on education. People are motivated to communicate about their sex- uality, but they lack the skills, Marini said. After my class, when students get in a situation where they need to talk to so- meone about sexuality, they have the skills to fall back on. Learning better communica- tion skills and experiencing sexuality in the real world were not the only benefits, though. Students leaving my classes have said that they feel more comfortable about themselves, Marini said. They understand how they've developed as sexual beings and that makes them more secure. Many students felt this more relaxed feeling came from ex- tensive class discussions. Everyone feels free to talk and give their ideas, said Steve Wheeler, Kokomo senior. It can be very revealing, but it's usually not embarrassing. Marini added that students who felt more comfortable with the topic felt they could better handle the education of their children when the time came. Within five to 10 years, most of these students will be parents, he said. If they didn't like how they were educated, this gives them the opportunity to learn how they can educate their kids. Anything we can do to make this generation better educators can only make it bet- ter for the generations to come. Students' reasons for taking sexuality classes varied and some took it just to participate in the activities. But they came away with much more -- whether it was better com- munication skills, ways to teach their children or just a more comfortable feeling about themselvesib y Angie Fullenkamp Sex Classes 165 X ,,f-' I' Y gg tx X t A i l I 1 I I l l ,W tv Q 5 1 i GUIDANCE New Ross graduate stu- dent Suzanne Miller offers some assistance to a stu- dent in the biology learning center.

In minutes he was part of the crowd, his faded blue jeans, striped Oxford shirt and worn- out boat shoes indistinguishable from those around him. Every few stgps, he slid his gray- colore glasses back into place with the gentle push of an index finger. Unknown to the students passing by, Tim Terrell, Gaston graduate assistant, wasn't on his way to take notes, but to give them. Terrell was the assistant for Dr. Ralph Baker's Political Science 130 class. Reading texts, deciphering lecture notes and studying for exams were essential for student success, but for Terrell, it was the flip side of those chores. He had the instructor's responsibility as well as that of a part-time stu- dent to worry about. Sometimes it cramps your style, he said. But it's better than flipping hamburgers. You can make your own hours and it's like a class for free. Graduate students who balanced teaching classes with their own course load mastered the transition from student to teacher by budgeting their time and making sure they had a firm grasp on what both roles required. iz it The time I-spend working for him takes up time I would devote to my own studies, Terrell said. When I prepare for my classes, there is more reading involved and I do col- lateral reading that I didn't do as an undergrad. Last week I gave a lecture and now I have reading to catch up on in my own classes. Terrell planned to teach government after he earned his masters in political science. He believed his experiences as a graduate assistant would benefit his career. It's given me an inside look at what teaching at the college level is like, he said. If I want to pursue teaching I feel I have a good idea of what l'm getting into. The students weren't the only ones to benefit from graduate assistantships. Professors shared in the advantages as well. lt benefits the department because we get their services, said Dr. Richard Olsen, pro- fessor of biology. But they also bring in a new outlook on teaching. They bring in new ideas because they have come from different parts of the na- tion and have different training and experiences. Suzanne Miller, New Ross graduate assistant, said she not only gained a valuable instruc- tor, but also a friend. The professors in the department are very helpful, she said. Being.a graduate assistant has made me more outgoing and better able to talk to other instructors. Miller not only worked close- ly with other instructors in the department, but also directed 25-minute introduction, discus- sion and evaluation sessions for Biology 100. She also worked three days a week in the department's learning center where she prepared and disassembled experiments. But still, she had time for the stu- dent. You've been there, you know what they're going through and-how they feel, Miller said. She added that be- ing a student herself had made her better able to relate to the students she instructed. But Miller could easily make the distinction between the roles of student and teacher. Outlining the contrasts, she said, I have to understand the material well enough to explain it to non-biology majors, not just well enough to pass a test and forget it. She replaced the last test tube in the cabinet drawer and pulling her book bag from the lab table, she reached over and flipped off the light. She walked -through the dark, empty hallway and out onto the sidewalk. A tiny room for two awaited her, but unlike the others around her, she not only had tomorrow's homework to do but the next day's lesson plan as well.

There needs to be some direction. I! -Stacey Wilson, Clarks Hill junior There needs to be direction from an adult, said Stacey Wilson, Clarks Hill junior. Everyone attending a universi- ty is trying to expand his ex- perience through those that are more experienced. Not only in the classroom, but in outside activities, too, students need someone for direction and ad- vice. Solution: faculty advisers. Dave Smith, adviser for Alpha Epsilon Rho, the profes- sional broadcast honorary, helped to book all the guest speakers and trips the group sponsored, plus he attended all the executive council meetings to help with any problems. Smith felt AERho was a very important organization. I think many of the things I do outside the classroom are just as important, if not more so, than what I do in the classroom, he said. AERho is certainly an area I would consider extremely important to the total development of the students as far as broadcasting is concerned. Many of the organizations provided experience and extra information dealing with students' majors and the ad- visers added to that with their own experiences. Smith was in commercial broadcasting for 24 years before becoming a pro- fessor and he utilized the peo- ple and businesses that he knew to get speakers and ar- range trips for AERho. Ann Hanson, Nursing Association adviser, used her experiences as a nurse to give advice and to think of program ideas. She has a lot of connections with health care organizations to bring in speakers and she knows a lot about the nursing professionf' said Wilson, presi- dent of the association. Hanson said that even though her role as adviser changed as the student leadership did, her part in the association could best be described as a nice, happy medium. They're independent, she said. They don't wait for me to tell them to do something, but they do keep me posted. That's the best way to work with an organization. Advisers also provided a link to the University, keeping stu- dent organizations within their bounds. He's the liason between the school and the organization, said Joe Martini, Guilford junior, about Smith. He lets us be free-minded, but he keeps us in line, too. Not all faculty advisers were heavily involved, however, in the organizations they spon- sored. Michael McCauley, faculty adviser for Disabled Students' Sports and Athletics, basically only kept the finan- cial records straight and, on oc- casion, consulted with the of- ficers about activities. McCauley said he wasn't very involved because he did only that which he was asked to do. He was invited to attend some of the group's meets, but all the functions held on cam- pus were often at times when McCauley was involved with family activities. I had to make a choice about which was more impor- tant and I think I made the right one because I'm very much a family man, he said. But whether an adviser was involved heavily or only on a small scale, Smith felt that faculty advisers provided the only continuity in an organiza- tion. Students come and go all the time. If you don't have so- meone who is there all the time you will frequently lose interest in the organizationfl he said. Also, when new members come in, no one would know anything about the organization or what has preceded them. While contributing continuity, advisers also got the chance to get to know students on a per- sonal basis. It's really fun to get to know the students in a different way, Hanson said. The students in the Nursing Association usually call me by my first name, at least the of- ficers do. You get to know them on a totally different basis. Because students will be students, and even though many were capable of perform- ing most of the duties of run- ning an organization, there were still areas in which they fell short. To fill the gap, a faculty adviser became more than just an instructor. He, or she, became resource person, guide and confidante, in and out of the classroom.

H -Ed Shipley Alumni Association director commitment to keeping in touch The long, white building hardly stood out from the other houses lining McKinley. It sprawled from one edge of its lot to the other, but its outward appearance gave away none of the flurry of activities that took place within. It was the Alumni and Development House, home of the Alumni Association, an organization responsible for reaching out to the 75,000 Ball State alumni across the nation and around the world. It is our task to keep graduates interested and in- volved in Ball State, said Ed Shipley, Alumni Association director. The Association involved alumni by sponsoring and sup- porting alumni outings, Homecoming andthe alumni publications, The Alumnusand Spectrum The Alumnus a monthly newspaper designed to keep alumni up-to-date on campus events and other alumni, was the service used most by graduates. It is sent to all alumni and if they just pick it up and read it, they have used one of our ser- vices, Shipley said. One-third of the graduates received Spectrum a feature- oriented magazine sent to alumni who donate a gift to the Association. Most of the gifts received were solicited during the An- nual Fund telephone campaign. Over 700 volunteers took telephone pledges from March 1 through the second week in May. Shipley said the 1984 drive raised between S2 million and S3 million. The graduates' willingness to contribute to their alma mater put Ball State in the top six for alumni participation among similar universities and won Ball State the CASE-US Steel Award four times in the past six years for sustained alumni performance. Shipley credited the response to the ease in which alumni could earmark their donation. The money raised by the Association goes where the donor wants it to go, Shipley said. Most money was pledged for one of the 500-plus trust funds already setup, but donors could direct their money to dif- ferent areas. We recently received our first donation for the Expo Magazine Shipley said. The money will be put in the general fund for the depart- ment of journalism. The head of the department will see that it goes to Expo Funds given to the Universi- ty were also tagged for research, scholarships, depart- mental and other campus groups. The existing trust funds in- cluded a general fund, welfare fund and research fund in every department. Athletic teams, several professional societies and a handful of specialized groups, such as the University Sing ers and the band, also had funds set up for them. Most people give to the department in which they got their deg ree or to something they participated in while they were here, Shipley said. But fundraising was not the Association's only activity and definitely not its most popular. It sponsored a variety of events for graduates, the major one being Homecoming. Complete with dinners, ceremonies and entertainment, it's the ac- tivity attended most. Regional outings arranged for alumni in areas all over the nation also kept the Association busy. If they can't make it to Ball State, we take Ball State to them, Shipley said. But perhaps its most time- consuming duty was keeping in contact with every alumnus. It wasn't an easy task and at- tempts at keeping addresses up-to-date drew some criticism. Matt Oldale, an alumni from Massachusetts, was upset by the insert the association put in diploma covers at graduation. Do they think I'm going to be able to give money to them as soon as I get out? I think they could wait a while before they start hitting us up, he said. Shipley said the insert asks students to update their ad- dress. 'tlt is our philosophy to say congratulations, Shipley said. The Association asks no one for anything for at least one year after graduation. But despite the Association's efforts to keep in touch and those of alumni to continue their relationships with the University, most graduates will see that building across from East Quad only a few times, if any, after they leave Ball State. The activities, however, ' will continue, as will the Association's attempts to ex- pand its group of alumni around the world.

The figure, whatever it was, was never missing from the invita- tion to accept such an honor. I could never stop wondering why I should have to pay to be honored. Was I the only one to question it? There must be something students saw as beneficial in these organizations to join one of the 50 on campus. It shows that students have a higher interest in their major and are more dedicated to it, said Jim Hade, a Muncie graduate student who was the vice-president of Sigma Lamb- da Alpha, the landscape ar- chitecture honorary. And it signals to potential employers that these students are special. But looking good to a poten- tial employer was only one benefit of belonging to an a special feeling honorary and a long-term one at that. Some students wanted a more immediate return for their money. The only gain would be an inner good feelingjl said Eugene Wallingford, Green- field junior. I have to fill out a form, send them a check and get dressed up. I don't get anything back except a slip of paper. Twenty hours of work a week at the computer center will look better on my resume. However, students still flock- ed to join honoraries, despite the price, and many were quick to defend their investment. You pay money, but you don't pay an outlandish price, said Sandra Schweyer, Fort Wayne junior. There are a lot of opportunities and it's a per- son's own fault if they don't take advantage of them. But for many, the honor alone was enough. A lot of honor societies functioned strictly one time a year and did not sponsor any events except an initiation or a banquet. Others, however, were much more involved on campus. We're active because we have good leadership, said Gary Kwolek, Marion junior and a member of Alpha Epsilon Rho, the broadcasting honorary. We have a lot of ac- tivities we do as a group, but we also perform services for the community. Still others joined regardless of scheduled activities. They had only one reason: to add another line to their resumes. It looks really good on a resume or an application to law school, said John Woodall, Anderson junior and president of the pre-law honorary. For my area, it's really good to show you have some drive, some initiative. However, few employers con- sidered membership a must and few graduate schools re- quired it. But it was always a plus, a line that could be drawn betwen the good and the great, Most programs do not con- sider it, said Dr. John Hill, assistant dean of the graduate school. However, as a univer- sity becomes more selective, it could be used as a way to decide between applicants. The amount of consideration an employer would give membership often depended on the type of job. Positions that required more practical ap- plications were less likely to stress membership in an honorary. We look for programming, said Phil Christy, personnel manager of the Alpha Center School. BSU has a program called ExEl, through which we have found that students have benefited from hands-on ex- periencef' Some students wanted the honor, some just wanted the certificates. Still others were after that little extra edge over the next guy. Some refused to join out of principle, but for others the possible benefits were worth paying for. For them, it would all come back in the end. Eby Angie Fullenkamp 172 Professional Fraternities 4-S R '-.. . 'CP A. john S. metzger Q Q .

His scribbles on the board might as well be Greek. But it didn't matter -- the quarry field trip was this weekend, and it was bound to make everything much clearer It was a simple matter of the textbook versus the 'real thing! With trips to the quarry, the nursing home and sometimes New York, students were leaving their classrooms to get practical experience in the field. Most instructors worked with Muncie sources, but others had to go farther in search of knowledge. Timothy Quigley, architecture instructor, took a group to New York to study its buildings and culture. If Muncie were larger, there wouldn't be such a push to go to other places, Quigley said. Another group, a class in ur- ban studies and planning, went farther than the norm. It was asked to participate in a special study that would re- quire visits to the future site of a new General Motors plant. We were asked by the Allen County Planning Commission to discover the impact of the new plant on the areas outside of the industrial zone, said Edgar Huntington, Muncie graduate student. But for most groups, resources in Muncie were ade- quate for their needs. Nursing students visited area nursing homes and hospitals while geology and natural resources majors frequented the quar- ries, water processing plants ,and woods surrounding Mun- cie. Regardless of destination, each group's purpose was the same to develo skills and ., . P ggain knowledge that could not fbe learned from a textbook. to experience it in the field, Quigley said. Books and slides are good, but seeing a building in its context -- interacting with other buildings and people -- is almuch more vital way to view 1 77 Most students who took trips simply observed professionals at work, but for others, the trips meant an opportunity to put their skills to the test. Nursing students didn't visit hospitals and nursing homes just to watch procedures. They ad- ministered shots and prescrib- ed medication and interacted with the patients. I had studied how to inter- view patients in class and I read the book, but I just didn't understand it, said nursing student Teresa Rhoten, N abb sophomore. At the nursing home, I went into the room, in- troduced myself to the patient and asked her to tell me something about herself. At first she wouldn't talk, but then she started rattling on. It was really worth it. Students garnered benefits other than practical experience from field studies. For some it meant an opportunity to meet professionals in their working environment. You can bring a profes- sional into the classroom, said the natural resources depart- ment, but it's better to see them in their own environment. There's quite a difference bet- ween a three-piece suit and a hardhat and overalls. Other students took trips that weren't directly associated with a course,.but still applied to their majorj Going to 'profes- sional conventions with a club or an honorary was another source of practical experience in individual areas. I was burnt out on jour- nalism, said Lisa Hoffman, Indianapolis junior. Going to the Sigma Delta Chi convention changed my attitude by 180 degrees because they discussed real problems real journalists were having. It made me realize how important jour- nalism is. That really inspired me. The professor lectured on, and occasionally he'd flip on the overhead with a transparency of topsoil, limestone layers and underground water reservoirs. The students tried to transform the two-dimensional image into a three-dimensional one in their minds, but the details they had problems with would be filled in next weekend. They'd go to the quarry and see the real thing .-Eby Angie Fullenkamp There 's quite a difference between a three-piece suit and a hard hat and overalls. 77 Donald Van Meter, natural resources department chairman QUARRY The Natural Resources 101 class studies the pro- cedures used by Irving Brother's Quarry workers to grind limestone into dif- ferent sizes.

Although he earned himself the title of Indiana's top judo contender, Weightlifting wasn't the only thing on his mind. Lomax is a dietetics major, a field most would consider dominated by women. But Lomax felt his background was an advantage even though he expected some problems when entering the job market. Keeping fit is more then a good work out. It's a good diet too, he said. People look at me like I'm too big a man to be a dietician -- as if size or sex has anything to do with it. I think being a man and ,in good shape can only help me. Lomax wasn't the only one, sophomore, said that even though more employers are ac- cepting women in her field of architecture, she still had to deal with people who had stereotyped the occupation. It's a hard job to fill, Reynolds said. Before I came to Ball State, some of my male friends that were already here told me that most girls couldn't make it in the College of Ar- chitecture and Planning. With a lot of concentration I learned not to let comments like those get in the way of my work. Appearance nor ridicule from colleagues was the problem for nursing major Rodney McNeil, Muncie freshman. He wasn't quite sure if nursing was right for him. tradition avoiding nursing because it wasntt masculine enough was silly, he added. One way students found to beat the sex stereotype was to be more qualified than their counterparts. This is a hard major, so everyone has to be confident, said Teresa Barnhorst, a Col- umbus senior majoring in in- dustrial technology. If you're not confident, you're weeded out in the first two classes. But I've co-oped at Warner Gear as a tool design analyst, Barnhorst added.

Jennifer Hawke, Lebanon, Ohio, came back immediately after finishing her Bachelor's degree at Defiance College, De- I fiance, Ohio. I had a very general com- munications background, said Hawke. I wanted to get a more specialized journalism education. The problem for Cary Jenkoski, Fort Wayne, wasn't that his degree was too general, but that he felt his career needed more direction. I really didn't know what I wanted to do with my degree in finance, said Jenkoski. I felt better about my computer science minor and decided to pursue it, he said. Susan Green, Ashley, didn't start her Master's work im- mediately after graduation but decided to work for a year to get some experience. But I found that in the field of archaeology you just about have to have at least a Master's degree to get anywhere, she said. And it was much tougher to get back in than I thought it would be. No matter the situation, it was tougher for anyone who wanted to return for a higher degree because of changes made in the graduate studies program to increase the quality of the school's graduates. Unlike past years, graduate school candidates were re- quired to have an undergraduate grade point average of at least 2.6 or pass an admissions test. After ac- ceptance, they had to maintain a 3.0 GPA to stay in the pro- gram. Before the changes, Ball State was at the bottom of the Mid-American Conference, said Dr. David Wheeler, dean of the graduate school. Now we are one from the bottom. Dr. Wheeler said he hoped the new requirements would help the Mid-American Con- ference rating continue to climb, but didn't think enroll- ment would go down since the new standards were beneficial to students. When someone says they graduated from Michigan State, the quality of their education isn't questioned, said Dr. Wheeler. We want that same instant recognition for our students. It doesn't, however, seem to be the recognition that students are going for when they choose Ball State for their graduate studies. I considered several schools before deciding to stay in Mun- cie, Green said. I had a job that I didnft want to leave and I was already familiar with the campus. Besides, I had always heard the graduate program was just like the undergrad program. Students soon found that there were more differences than similarities between the two programs. In some cases, the required work was more demanding than in undergraduate programs. The work is harder, and bet- ween it and the work I have for my assistantship, it seems like I can't get aheadf' Hawke said. One of the biggest differences between being a graduate or an undergraduate student was the teacher-student relationship. The attitude of the instruc- tors seems different, said Green. For instance, I have an archaeology class where the prof asked if we were all grad students. When we said we were he said 'Good, we won't have to have all those tests. Tests are for undergrads. ' But that didn't mean classes were going to be easy. Graduate students had to discipline themselves to fulfill higher expectations. However, many felt professors showed more concern for how well graduate students did in their courses. I think profs expect respon- sibility from grad students and so they don't feel they have to lead them through their studies, said Scott Cleveland, Anderson. They are also more concerned about what you are doing, they donlt just stand in front of the class and say you have to know this, this and this without saying why. They ex- plain what I am learning and what good it will do me when I get out of Ball State. It was the after Ball State part that students were con- cerned with. It was what students were able to do after graduation that prompted the administration to tighten the program's standards. It was also the reason it was harder to get in and stay in. I don't mind the extra work, said Green. Because I know that somewhere along the line someone is going to notice.

My resume was practically a work of art and the mock inter- view tape had given me a good idea of what to expect. The placement office had really helped. But beginning with the interview, the rest was up to me. The Office of University Placement Services assisted many seniors in the process of getting a job after college by offering career information, graduate school listings and summer job and internship con- nections. Often times, its ser- vices didn't end with a stu- dent's graduation. Alumni also used the office as a job resource. But even though the place- ment office had a lot to offer, most students didn't realize its services were available before their senior year. I sure didn't. As a freshman, students don't visualize themselves writing resumes and interview- ing. They say, 'Well, that's three years away,' said Judith McCoy Barnes, place- ment assistant director. As a fall quarter senior, it finally hit me that I was going to be needing a job in less than a year and I didn't have any ldea of how, or where, to start. 11 remember when I went in for my appointment I thought the counselor would probably think I was really stupid for not coming in before then, but she didn't. Barnes asked me what my major and minor were and what kind of job I wanted, then she gave me a registrants packet of forms to fill out. The packet also had a long list of video and audio cassette tapes on interviewing and careers that I could use and a placement office calendar that had all the dates for their workshops, career days and on- campus interviews marked. To end our first meeting, Barnes showed me the Career Information Library. It had summer job listings, career descriptions and job descrip- tions from employers that anyone could use. The next week I went to a resume writing workshop, then took in my registrant's forms to my counselor. She kept my card on file with others so she would have job candidate in- formation handy if an employer called. Barnes told me I needed to have my first draft of my resume by the next week. I dreaded doing it, but I finally did. Even after the workshop the resume still stunk! But Barnes went over it with me, I made some corrections, and after the third draft, it was ready to be typed. Then all I had to do was wait for an employer to call for an interview. I kept checking in every week in case my name had been put on a company's interview list or to see if I fit any of the positions that were going to be interviewed for soon. I also called the Job Line for job vacancies once a week. In February, I finally got an interview. I was so nervous all day I couldn't do anything right. This was the opportunity I'd been looking for and I didn't want to mess it up. So I just tried to remember all the pointers I'd been given and hoped it would be enough to make a good impression. As I slipped on my coat out- side the interviewing rooms,l couldn't help but be a little pro- ud of myself. I felt my efforts had been successful and believ- ed the employer Wanted to hire me.

Everywhere were signs of newness. The doors stuck but did not squeak. The bulletin boards beside the black and white nameplates had so few holes you could count them. Every room had a trash can of it's very own. Not everything was perfect, though. An exit sign on the third floor faced the wall and the office numbers on the se- cond floor didnit quite follow a pattern. But the flaws were overlooked as the Robert P. Bell Building was dedicated to the former Ball State President Sept. 28, Bell's 66th birthday. Housing an expanded com- puter science department, the construction of the new building and its dedication were the first physical steps toward achieving one of Ball State's educational goals: computer literacy. The Bell Building houses not only the computer science department, but the mathe- - matical science depart- ment, the English department and the University Computer Services as well. A Even though the building wasn't open to students until Fall Quarter, departmental moves took place several the new facilities, said Paul Hernandez, assistant director of computer services. The computer services system alone contained 25 miles of cable and connected the entire campus. Hernandez said the one-weekend move from East Quad took over two years of orchestration. Ike Jones, Office of Space Studies and Utilization, said the first floor of East Quad will be remodeled and used for addi- tional history and anthropology offices and classrooms. The departments of math and computer science both gained more space with the move from the Cooper Life Sciences Building. We were severely crowded before, said Dr. Donald Whitaker, math department chairman. Since we are all under one roof and not spread all over campus, students have more access to the faculty, par- ticularly the part-time facul- ty, Judy Bonneau, computer science department secretary, agreed with Whitaker. There aren't as many classrooms, she said, but office space is the big thing. Before the move, math and computer science shared classroom and astronomy, chemistry and physiology-health science departments already housed there. English students may ap- preciate the extra space, but what they looked forward to even more was what Susan Green, Ashley graduate stu- dent, called dependable weather. I had two summer classes in the old English building, she said. I would go from a first floor morgue to the third floor inferno. ,The heating and cooling system was not install- ed when the building was con- structed in 1959, so the temperature balance was er- ratic. Renamed the Arts and Com- munication Building, the old English Building was divided into classrooms, and offices for the speech communication, theater, telecommunications, music and speech pathology and audiology departments, ac- cording to Jones. The dean of Fine Arts was also relocated there and the space for WBST radio station was expanded. But once the transitions were complete, the seemingly endless wait for more elbow room was finally over and the dreaded hassles of moving in .Indiana S weeks before. office space. eventually tackled.

During a library and science information lab, a student studies the operation of recording devices. Books closed and the bell rang for the last time. The library science department an- nounced Winter Quarter '83 there would be no graduate program offered after August '85, However, Ball State was only one in a crowd. We are one of nine library information science schools closing, said Ray Suput, department chairman. There's been a decline in the graduate enrollments in library information science, and that sometimes becomes an economic problem with the pro- gram. The enrollment of graduate students dropped from 50 to 25 in a year. The reason is the same around the country, Suput said. If students don't have the financial assistance, they can't go to school. For exam- ple, one student said, 'It's im- possible to have a new baby and go to school. ' But the phase-out affected others besides graduates. The phase-out makes it very A ' . . il 61' lohn S. me er inconvenient for a lot of us seniors, said Kate Stroup, Muncie senior. A lot of students intended to do their graduate work here at Ball State. My husband is a student, too, she added. Ball State has the graduate program that he wants and it's better than IU's, which is where l'd have to go. It means either splitting up the household or not getting my Master's for a while. At the time that the library science department announced the phase-out, 96 students were enrolled in library information science courses, graduate and undergraduate. And one of the biggest fears and misunderstandings was that undergraduate courses would be cancelled as well as the graduate. People misunderstand, ex- plained Suput. The University has decided that as far as the undergraduate program is con- cerned, it will continue. Until the University announc- ed the cancellation of the graduate program, the library science department neglected undergraduate courses. Undergraduates, determined to strengthen their courses, met and formed their own organiza- tion. We thought that since there was an organization for the graduate program, there should be one for the undergraduate program as well, said Stroup. The organization had existed before, we just wanted to re- establish it. But the department added more than an organization to the undergraduate program. Right now, we're working on the curriculum. We would like to add media technology into majors and minors, said Suput. We would like to prepare students not only for school libraries, but also for public libraries. To attract and prime students for school and public libraries, the department added an Associate's degree to the curriculum. Although students could receive Bachelor's and Associate's degrees in library information science, they had to look elsewhere for their Master's. The phase-out means we have to go to another college and go through the hassle of transferring credits, said Don- na Leaird, Peru junior. And the other school could very easily say, 'We're sorry, but we can't take another graduate student? If I'd have known that they were going to cancel the graduate program. I'd have gone somewhere else for my Bachelor's. But as far as the University was concerned, the library in- formation science department could survive without the graduate program. Getting a Bachelor's degree here and going somewhere else for a Master's can be done, said Suput. But after the phase-out, students had no other choice. What was a possibility, became a necessity if students wanted to continue their education in library science.

But those not finishing by the end of the 1985 summer had to seek out other university facilities to obtain theirdegrees. john S, metzger john S. metzger PHOTO LIGHTING A portion of library science department courses required the use of media and photography.

University President John Worthen's inauguration was over. The next move was his. Since coming to Ball State July 1, 1984, from his position as president of Indiana University of Pennsylvania, he had spent most of his time making plans for the University's role in preparing students. President Worthen felt having a college education would be crucial to their futures. First, to be able to deal with a more complicated world, ad- vanced knowledge and skills will be necessary, President Worthen said. Individuals must be ready to explain their views, to defend their positions and to justify their arguments. The ability to write, to speak clearly and to use language ef- fectively will be critical. Col- lege can teach those skills. By learning certain skills, Worthen felt students would be able to more directly control their own destinies. A college-educated person will be able to adapt better to changing conditions, to switch careers and to take on new roles, he said. A college degree will open doors which can lead to new opportunities. But getting a degree didn't mean that a student's educa- tion wouldn't continue after the walk across the Arts Terrace at graduation. We are moving rapidly toward a society in which peo- ple are constantly learning new information and skills. Some would argue we are already there, President Worthen said. Knowing how to learn will be extremely important. Helping students learn how to learn must be one of the primary goals of all colleges and universities. Not only did President Wor- then have definite goals in mind for Ball State, he also had in mind a definite way of achieving them. We must use quality as the criterion of judgement for everything we do, he said. Rather than simply perform- ing our duties we should con- stantly look for better ways to do things while doing the best job we can within the resources we have. Worthen believed that in- structors' jobs went past simp- ly providing information for students to learn. They should also be concerned with whether or not students did actually learn the material and, if not, why. We shouldn't take the posi- tion that 'we offered it and if they're not learning, it's their responsibility, ' he said. If some students don't have the necessary skills or the ability to study well, we should know that and try to give them what they lack. lt's not a soft-headed or soft-hearted approach, Presi- dent Worthen added. It's the best way to try to make those students better than when they came to Ball State? But President Worthen didn't feel that his approach to main- taining quality education would demand a complete makeover of the University. We can achieve our goals by working from the strengths we already have, he said. We're not going to start afresh for the future, only modify what we're already doing and remain responsive to the state and sur- rounding region. Working from within the University formed the strong foundation Worthen felt his plans needed if Ball State is to excel in the future of education, but he also realized that the campus community couldn't ig- nore its obligation to inform the public of what it has to offer. With his first objective of providing quality college education set into perspective, President Worthen had but to step from the Emens podium and into the ranks already filtering back to offices and classrooms and lend his hand in the task. A few years ago, Worthen said, the president of a university in the Southwest made a statement which I think applies to Ball State. He said, 'We should not pretend that we are more than we are but we dare not let others assume that we are less than we are.' Ball State has a good story to tell and we will be sharing it with others.'Eby Jacque Bogner Brad Sau Individuals must be ready to explain their views, to defend their po- sitions and to justify their ar- guments...

But for three new deans, Ball State was a com- mon interest. Quality education was a priority and students, colleagues and the University's academic reputation came first. Before becoming dean of the College of Business, Dr. Neil Palomba was associate dean of the University of Maryland's School of Business. Even though his job was one of a full-time administrator, he con- sidered himself an educator as well and planned to concentrate on giving students every chance possible to enhance and further their educations. There is no one way to prepare, Dean Palomba said, but by interacting business education with other areas such as the fine arts, social sciences and architecture, for example, we can better a student's background. There are good jobs available for those people with various mixtures of educa- tion. But inter-curricular activity wasn't his only plan -- pro- grams had to be flexible as well. To allow business graduate students to complete Master's degrees without hav- ing to return to campus, an in- teractive television system was in operation Spring Quarter -- the first university system of its kind in the state. A student at any one of eight receiving sites in Indiana could dial up a professor, see and hear lectures, and ask ques- tions via a television screen. In turn, professors could hear the students through classroom in- tercoms. t'We want to add something special to the things we already do well, Dean Palom- ba said. It's my job to put together the conditions that make that possible. Dr. Ted Kowalski's job as dean of Teacher's College was more a matter of carrying on objectives he had helped develop as associate dean three years ago and acting dean last year. We've had tremendous suc- cess recently in acquiring ex- ternal grants, Dean Kowalski said. The grants would enable TC to enhance such clinical pro- grams as the Burris Laboratory School, which gives Ball State students field ex- perience with students in kindergarten through 12th grade. Research could also be expanded. We want to work toward establishing ourselves as a leading institution for research in teacher education and toward becoming a place to which others turn for that research, Dean Kowalski said. Dr. John Urice believed that as a dean, having an understanding of artistic pro- cesses was the best way he could help students in the new College of Fine Arts thrive within their existing environ- ment. Dean Urice came to Ball State from the State University of New York at Binghamton where he was director of the Center for the Arts and director of the MBA Arts Program. Arts are essential to the human experience, Dean Urice said. We need to look at ways in which we can establish cooperative activities so that students can orient themselves to art forms other than that of their majors. They need to step across disciplinary lines so they can understand the common social forces affecting all of us and be able to take a more active role in determining their own fate. Dean Urice planned to make that role a reality for students by orienting the college's ad- ministrative staff more toward the faculty and students themselves. The students and the faculty are the two things we're here for and they need the op- portunity to participate more in what is actually being done for the college, he said. For ex- ample, I won't even approve a faculty search committee if there's not a student represen- tative on it. Even though they all knew what had to be done, they all had their separate ways of go- ing about it. Whether it was in- creasing program availability, generating funds forthe expan- sion of research, or giving faculty, as well as students, a part in administrative pro- cesses, for all three new deans, the objective of bettering Ball State as an educational institu- tion remained constantiby Jacque Bogner 188 New Deans K Rv -n-ef john S. metzger THE WAIT Almost three hours is long enough for anyone's graduation.

These people, with differing backgrounds, contrasting opinions and a variety of outlooks on life, combined on one campus, a common ground, to create powerful leadership, intelligent ideals and determined will. In there own ways, everyone gave a little of themselves. Theresa Minnick, Leo junior, helped patients at Ball Memorial Hospital through recovery while she gained prac- tical experience in the field of physical therapy. April Neth, Columbus freshman, spent her spare time a mascot for Botsford Hall during the Homecoming Kick-Off games.

As the University changed, the people changed.

But along the way, these people developed more than personal experience and shared more than a residence hall room or a study table at the library. As they put their ideas together and accepted one another's opinions, they built an atmosphere of excite- ment, a wealth of incentive -- their own Ball'State of mind.

Winning was in the Cards for some Ball State athletes while others spent most of their season breaking in a new deck. The women's field hockey team and the men's tennis team both captured their Mid-American Conference titles for the second consecutive year. The men's volleyball team again spiked the Final Four with a shot of Cardinal vim and vigor while the men's basketball team enjoyed an onslaught of national media attention thanks to star for- ward Dan Palombizio, Michigan City junior. At the end of football season, the Cardinal gridiron had little to show for its efforts with a 3-8 finish in the con- ference. But a successful game plan wasn't the only thing the team lacked for the next season. Head Coach Dwight Wallace was fired and the search for his replacement became an athletic department priority. When it came to enthusiasm, drive and competitiveness, however, Cardinal rosters never fell short. The Cards weren't about to let ability and desire slip through their fingers. With aces for coaches and a full house of support, they held the winning hand. fs-P-o7R- T-'S' ' '- A A WIP N' -1 J F M l W ., 11.5 ,wk , ' N 5' 5 -:1 ff. rw ' 1 rhd g 'inn 9 3 'fn L ' 1' We u' '1 1 c 1 J H -:mf g f W sg I ,Mr U v ,- n w w 1' ' .ax , V N 1 u H-flW '9 if Na W' 5 If HJ? ef: mEgy,w.q,LgM'mhwN' ' ,M WWw , Q!

The race for a berth in national and regional com- petition demonstrated the team's ability to compete more than adequately with everyone they played as the club finished the year with a very respectable 9-9 record. Wizard Co-captain Rick Heintzelman, Muncie senior, said the team had gained some much needed experience over the past year. Concentrating on a strong defense, eight returning members began to rebuild. The game, best described as a mixture of soccer, basketball and football, is open to both zone and man-to-man defenses. And the Cardinal team made its choice. I think we had one of the best man-to-man defenses around, Heintzelman said, explain- ing the Wizards' decision to go with the more difficult strategy. We knew with our inex- perienced throwers we'd have to have a tough one to win. In winter practice, team members worked on perfecting the three basic throws used in Ultimate -- forehand, backhand and overhand. Those who prove best at these throws are named the team's controllers and have the job of moving the disc up and down the field. Tom Kuhn, Hammond senior, Steve Kubacki, Grif- fith junior, and Chris Nagy, Kalamazoo, Mich., graduate student, were steady in the position throughout the year. Dave Anderson, Muncie senior, sophomores Dave Roberts, South Bend, and Mark Hamilton, Cincinnati, Matt Beehler, Muncie junior, and Steve Mingear, Rensselaer freshman, filled the Wizard wing positions with consistent performances. Despite the team's youth, it made a good showing in intercollegiate sectional and regional play finishing third with a 3-2 record in the section. Making the top three, they ad- vanced to regional competition in Madison, Wis., to earn a record of 1-4. For playing intercollegiate competition for only two years we had a good finish, Heint- zelman said. It was encouraging that we won even one game against the tough competition at regionals. We were by far the youngest team there. 1986 will see 15 Wizards return, including all four co-captians, and the team is hoping ex- perience will pay off. It should be a good year, Heintzelman said. I feel we can go to nationals. The teams that went to nationals this year only beat us by four or five points.

On the field, in the empty stands and in the coaches' corner, it was a year of defeat. After only the second game of the season, the much publicized Britt Air Attack was grounded and consistency was nowhere to be found. Starting quarterback Neil Britt, who com- pleted 206 of 348 passes for 2,377 yards his sophomore year, setting records in both categories, was late getting on track as he threw nine interceptions in the team's two opening defeats. 'tWe made far too many mistakes and did not play physical football, Head Coach Dwight Wallace explained after the first game against Massachusetts. The mistakes kept piling up in the second game, raising the total turnovers from the first two games alone to 15. Just as the mistakes continued, so did the losses. Early season defeats by Toledo and Ohio set the stage for a long year. Faced with an 0-3 record that left the Cards nowhere to go but up, they headed West to play PAC-10 powerhouse Washington State. Though the entire free world picked the Cougars in a wipeout, the 22-point underdogs prepared to upset the odds. Sparked by strong play from both their linebackers and safeties, the stingy Cardinal defense staved off two enemy attacks inside BSU's 10-yard line. But as the teams broke for the locker room, the Cougars held a 13-0 ad- vantage. Hungry for success, the Cards emerged in the third quarter with a quick touchdown that put them back in the game. However, three turnovers halted Cardinal drives and the Cougars were able to capitalize on the last one with a field goal. Down 16-7, Britt's Air Attack sprouted new wings and connected with Ricky George, Mun- cie freshman, for a 69-yard touchdown, closing the gap to two points. While the Cardinals suc- 4' ceeded in recovering an onside kick, it was too late. Three unsuccessful passes and a missed 61-yard field goal diminished any hopes of an upset. But Coach Wallace's confidence in the team remained intact. We saw improvement in all phases and may have gained a little confidence in our come- from-behind effort, Wallace said. The confidence carried over as the Cardinals exerted yet another strong effort at the match- up in Dekalb against defending MAC cham- pion, Northern Illinois. Playing before over 26,000 fans, the largest crowd ever to see a Ball State football game, quarterback Robert Adams, Oaklawn, Ill., junior, connected with George in the waning seconds for a 39-yard touchdown pass and a one-point Cardinal victory. The success didn't last long, however, as the new optimism was quickly smothered by cross- state rival Indiana State. From the opening coin flip in the Hoosier Dome, Indiana State dominated the flow of the game on their way to retaining the Victory Bell for the fourth consecutive year. The Sycamores scored on every possession they had in the first half as they sustained long, time- consuming drives that gave them a 17-3 halftime lead. The Sycamores then scored on their first three possessions of the second half to put the game on ice and the Cardinals at the mercy of a 34-6 defeat. The Ball State scoring resulted from two field goals by John Dietrich, Fort Wayne sophomore, the second of which set a new school record at 54 yards. The frustrations continued when Kent State spoiled Homecoming festivities by defeating the Cardinals 15-10 before the smallest crowd ever to watch a Ball State Homecoming game. The defense played like Tarzan one play and Jane the next, said a distressed Wallace after the team dropped to 1-6. Things then took an upswing as the Britt Air Attack briefly reappeared. With the Red and White trailing Western Michigan 15-7 in the se- cond quarter, Britt came in and took control. Playing up to preseason billings, Britt com- pleted 20 of 30 passes for 237 yards with no in- . terceptions. With just six seconds remaining , and less than 1,000 fans watching, fullback Jayl Neal, Yorktown freshman, plunged across the , goal line to give Ball State their only home vic- tory of the year, 23-20. The Cardinals went on to defeat Eastern Michigan 17-10, as Britt found consistency in back-to-back games. They carried a two-g ame winning streak into their final home game against Bowling Green, hoping to tack on one more and lessen the criticism of their dismal 3 6 slate.

Bowling Green had enough steam to chalk up a 38-13 win and put an end to Ball State's flirta- tion with even mild success. As game after game went down in the loss column, fan support diminished. The decline brought the fear of being dropped from Divi- sion 1 Athletics as the Cardinals spent the year riding on the coattails of their MAC foes who attracted the 18,000 fan-per-game average re- quired for membership in the NCAA. Searching for a solution to a football pro- gram which was losing both on the field and financially, the athletic committee decided not to renew Wallace's contract and made the an- nouncement public a week before the Car- dinals' last contest of the season against Cen- tral Michigan. This is a sad day after 10 years of service to Ball State University, Wallace told reporters. Those years were difficult years, but I can honestly say that we gave them our best shot. The Central Michigan match-up exemplified the previous defeats that both players and coaches had suffered. Wallace watched his Car- dinals get buried 51-7 in what became his final game as head coach. After seven years, Wallace left Ball State with a 40-37 record overall and a 30-27 mark against conference opponents. The season was not a colorful one even though a few great plays were remembered.

The women's field hockey team completed a domineering 16-4 season by finishing first in the Mid-American Conference with an unblemished 9-0 record and their second con- secutive league title. Earning laurels at both conference and regional levels, the Red and White compiled an impressive list of accomplishments. Victories in the final 14 games of the season extended last year's MAC winning streak to 17. We got really good leadership skills from all of our upperclassmenj' fifth-year Head Coach Karen Fitzpatrick said. We had a high level of motivation and once we instilled the winning attitude, it made it easier for us to win from game to game, We were extremely pleased with the season, but we were a little disappointed that our shutouts from last season dropped from 12 to 9, she added. With 15 years of experience among them, seniors Tricia Grady, Miller Place, N.Y.g Mary Anne Kurowski, Muncie, Ann Meloche, Tipton, and Beth Sova, Port Orange, Fla., anchored the Cardinals' defensive unit. Tricia was a consistent player who did whatever we needed, Fitzpatrick said. She was here her first year on a badminton scholar- ship and didn't want to risk a field hockey in- jury. continued Brad Sauter Ohfl S.

Women show true insight of game continued When the badminton program was dropped, she became a very solid defensive player for us. When the ball would come down her side, she was always confident she would stop it. Meloche had never played field hockey prior to coming to Ball State. She came in as a total novice and left as a confident starter on the conference champion- ship team, Fitzpatrick said. It was the kind of development you like to see in a player. But the more outstanding performances weren't enough to pull the Cardinals through their early games as they dropped two of the first three decisions. The opening contest saw the Cardinals defeat Dayton by a 5-0 margin at home, but they then fell to two national powers, Iowa, 2-0, and Maryland, 1-0. With a 1-2 record, the Cards began a swing around the eastern part of the United States where field hockey was better known. The first game of the trip was one that car- ried alittle extra meaning for Fitzpatrick and her assistant Edie Patton. The Cardinals were to battle West Chester State, the alma mater of both coaches. The 2-1 Cardinal victory was a sweet one but the taste of success faded momentarily as Ball State fell to both the Rutgers and Lehigh teams. Ending the trip with a 5-0 win over Eastern Kentucky and a 2-0 shutout over James Madison improved their record to 4-4. Playing teams which are in the top 20 in the country gives us some good national exposure which is beneficial to our program, Fitz- patrick said. Going up against stronger teams forces us to be more prepared for the conference season and we can compete with these nationally prominent programs. The back-to-back wins over Eastern Ken- tucky and James Madison began a string of 14 consecutive victories, which included eight of the season's nine shutouts. On entering the Cardinal-hosted conference championship, the squad had beaten every con- ference team, but the accomplishment did little to ease the difficulties of their first game in the tournament. The Cardinals managed to defeat Kent State, 2-1, but only after 70 minutes of regulation play, two 10-minute overtime periods and a five-shot flick-off. The flick-off decided it when the Cardinals scored on two of their first three tries, while Kent State failed on their first four, giving the Cards a chance to defend their 1983 MAC title. It wasn't necessarily the toughest competi- tion we had to face all season, Fitzpatrick said, but we went into the Kent State game tentative and worried about losing. Since we were undefeated in the conference, we knew everyone would be out to beat us. The overtime L win really gave us a boost going into the championship game. In the final game of the season, the Cardinals were able to post a 2-1 win over yet another stubborn Ohio opponent.

Early reports held to be true as the Red and White ventured on a southern loop over spring break. The Cardinals played such powerhouses , as Florida State and other southern coast - teams. A Returning with an 8-4 record, the team was on its way to one of its most successfu seasons I ,.,f .,,,,,, I ever and the expectations only continued to 'A- grow. Hitting was powerful and pitching was solid but despite impressing statistics in both categories, there was a major flaw. Rarely did the team manage to control both aspects successfully at the same time and it was enough to turn the year from exceptional to one of only mediocre standing. The Cards finished the season 30-27 overall and 14-17-1 in iam. s. meager Mid-American Conference play. H iiWe played very well in Florida, said Head Coach Pat Quinn. I think we developed a po- tent offense after playing well in good weather, but it really hurt us when we had to come back north to practice inside for three weeks because of weather conditions here. The Cardinals started the season with four consecutive wins defeating Evansville, Georgia State twice and Georgia. In the four ballgames the team scored 38 runs and allowed only 14. The offensive pace continued as the team found 9 wins in its first 13 outings scoring 110 runs. Later in the season, the pitching of Mike Roesler, Fort Wayne junior, Mike Shebek, In- dianapolis freshmang Paul Whitesell, Hartford City freshman, and Wayne Throgmorton, Jef- fersonville sophomore, maintained Cardinal respectability when the offense faultered. In the final 13 games, the team managed to score only 50 runs, less than half of their ac- complishments. In the home stretch of the season, the Cards went 5-8 despite the pitching staff effort of giv- ing up 42 runs less in those 13 games than i had in it's first 13. Earlier, our offense was potent and our pit- ching was more than adequate, Quinn said. l 1 'l 1 xr . i if , lu, I JA 'xlllv ,rr ill: 'Wi , ri Q. 1 l Brad Sauter rm is 1 vfiwltwr- -..Q - .

The four-year letterrnan led the Cords with a .344 average. l . ...ll Hitting, pitching lack consistency continued the game seemed to switch. When our hitting slumped off, our pitchers were at their best. It was the first time since 1976, and only the second time in the team's history, that the Car- dinals were able to pick up 30 victories in a season. En route to the record, new standards were set for the most runs scored, most runs batted in, most home runs, most hits and most doubles by a Cardinal team Leading the contingent of powerful hitters were senior Shanon McCormick, Muncie, and sophomore Thomas Howard, Germantown, Ohio. McCormick, a four-year letterman for the Red and White, led the team with a .344 batting average while etching his name into the record books in several categories. His 66 hits on the season represented the most ever achieved by a Cardinal in a single year. Howard was an offensive threat with each appearance at the plate and easily dominated Cardinal batting statistics. Tom was probably the single most offensive producer in the conference, Quinn said. The young outfielder blossomed by establishing new school and conference marks in home runs and runs batted in and finished the season with 17 home runs and 69 RBIs. Such statistics gained him outside recogni- tion as well as he was the lone soghomore on the 1985 American Baseball Coac es Associa- tion Converse All-District IV team. He spent the summer touring with the United States Baseball Federation's 1985 team and hoples to get the exposure he needs to meet one of is lifetime goals--to play major league baseball. But Howard alone didn't carry the Cardinal offense as eight players carried batting averages above .300 and the team held a lofty .297 average. Roesler capped off his Cardinal career with an 8-3 mark and 21 career victories. The 21 wins ranked him second in Cardinal history books. Our pitching rotation was outstanding, Quinn said. Shebeck developed quicker than we expected. He's very strong and he's going to be very good. In the bullpen, senior stopper Ron Schrock, Goshen, led the Cardinals with nine saves, only two slay of the Cardinal record which he set in 1984. is career total boasts 24 saves in three years. The 1984 version of Cardinal baseball is se- cond only to the 1976 team which held a 34-14 record. Those players had been record setters and proved, without a doubt, they could be a dominating ball club. The future only appears to hold more of the same with the likes of Howard, Throgmorton and Shebeck returning and Quinn strongly believes the 1986 roster will be a legitimate conference contender. And if the Cards can synchronize hitting and pitching, Quinn just may not be too far off baseiby Mark Smith L.: L-.i LJ .Nil .H 'Q 'Q E BASEBALL-Front Row: Tom Kilgore, Dave Harris, Lex Hunter, Tom Blosser, Alan Fozo, Jerry Clements, Shane Hall, Demetrios Skalkotos, Mike Overmyer, Dave Minnich, Paul Whitesell, and Chuck Laumann.

Optimism turns sour Lady Cards out-scored 209-39 With a ring of optimism in her voice, Head Softball Coach Jeri Findlay was always telling everyone, Don't give up on us, because we haven't. By the time mid-season came around the Cards had tallied a mere three wins in 23 outings. Adding to their woes, the team fell to defeat in 19 of their last 24 games. It was a year of disappointment. Over the course of the campaign the dia- mond women were outscored 209-39 by their op- ponents. The team's leading hitter, Cindy Sands, Huntington sophomore, ended the season with a .255 batting average and only four others were above the .200 mark. Sands pounded out 28 hits and batted in 11 runs for the season but she and her teammates struggl- ed from the lack of offense compiling only a .189 average and scoring only 63 times. Aside from its weaknesses, the team found their woes in the field as well as they commit- ted 121 errors in 47 games. An all-too-real example of the team's disap- pointing endeavors was the April contest with Indiana University. Through seven innings, senior Lisa Huey, Muncie, hurled a no-hitter, but the Cards hadn't yet scored either. Not un- til the top of the eighth did the Hoosiers send two runners across the plate for a welcomed 2-0 win. Huey finished the season leading the team with a 2.05 earned run average, although she pitched a dismal 0-11 record. Also on the mound, junior righthander Denise Daniel, Muncie, led the Lady Cards with a 5-15 slate on her way to a 2.52 earned run average. Injuries, too, riddled the softball team during preparation for the Illinois State University In- vitational. In fact, three of the four starting in- fielders suffered injuries resulting in absence from the tournament. In the Mid-American Conference, the Cards finished at 4-10. On the way to their 8-38-1 overall record, the team was able to win only one game on their home field. The team did manage to write its way into the record books, though, in May against Nor- thern Illinois with a smooth triple play turn. The defensive maneuver was the first in Car- dinal history. And history was what the team wanted to make of the 1985 season. To put the disappoint- ment and defeat behind them was to begin a new year with new expectations. And they l listened to their coach.

Dreams of an NCAA title finish vanished once again for the men's volleyball team as the Waves of the Pacific hit the Final Four tourna- ment court. Pepperdine University's Waves, from Los Angeles, had swept the nation for its number one team ranking. And they proved themselves worthy of the description when they disposed of the Volleycards 15-2, 15-2, 15-7 before defeating the University of Southern California in the tournament's final match. Despite reaching the Final Four seven times before, a record second only to UCLA's, the Cards have never finished the post-season play in higher than third place. Lack of intensity, a problem which the team battled throughout the year, was part of the problem. We just didn't have any intensity on the court and I just can't explain that, Volleycard Head Coach Don Shondell told reporters after the match. I can't explain how a team could come to the National Championships and not compete. Something evidently psychological kept our kids from playing at their level. Despite finishing 22-13 on the season with an undefeated 6-0 record in the Midwest Inter- collegiate Volleyball Association, the early exit from the Final Four left a bitter taste in Car- dinal mouths. The kids are disappointed and I'm disap- pointed, Shondell said. That's really about all you can say. We just didn't play the way I thought we were capable of playing at this level of competition. That, in itself, proved they'd set their sights on higher horizons. No long er did the Volleycards base their success against the Midwest teams, but rather the coast teams where volleyball is a much more popular and practiced sport. Preparation beg an early. Ten lettermen returned to form the nucleus of a solid national contender. Seniors Dale Carney, Muncie, Umit Taftali, Muncie, and Chad Weyenberg, Kaukauna, Wis., and junior Chris Dowler, Oakdale, Minn., led the veteran pack.

Arzu Calis and Stacy Jordan. 298 Women's Volleyball When the season beg an we were optimistic about having a .500 record, McManama said. We had some good talent and although it showed at times during the year, our luck could have been better. After winning four of their first seven mat- ches, the Cardinals seemed to be on their way to improving the 12-21 record posted in 1983. But as the ladies soon discovered, bettering that mark wasn't going to be as easy as they had thought. After traveling to Bowling Green only to lose a hard-fought, five-g ame battle to the Falcons, the Cardinals were dealt yet another blow that became one of the biggest reasons for their poor performance, both emotionally and on paper, the rest of the season. Michelle Winkle, Muncie senior, who had been named to the All-MAC team as an outside hitter the past two seasons, decided to forego the remainder of the season in order to pursue a career in business. Although he was losing the team leader in digs, kills and spiking percentage, McManama felt it was more of an emotional loss than a statistical one. In volleyball, if you lose a key player it's hard to deal with because the sport is so team- oriented, McManama said. We were playing over half freshmen and sophomores and losing Michele's playing credentials and floor leader- ship really affected us. The loss of Winkle had more effect than ex- pected as the Cardinals were crushed in the following four matches. What had seemed to be a season with some hope was getting bleaker by the minute, complete with a 4-8 record and too much inexperience on the floor to foresee a very bright future. Naturally, we were upset by the string of four losses after Michele left, McManama said. Our emphasis is on our MAC record because the champion is an automatic qualifier for the NCAA tournament. All four of those matches were conference losses and they hurt our chances of being competitive for the title. To earn back a little of their ebbing respect, the netters buckled down and sweated out two consecutive road victories against Kent State and Ohio University. Unfortunately, their com- petitive comeback was short-lived as 11 of their 4 final 14 outings, including a quintet of five- game squeakers, slipped through their fingers. The Cardinals' last contest added still more numbers to the loss column with a five-g ame match that brought Ohio University to Muncie with revenge on its mind. Against a hustling, yet still inexperienced Cardinal attack, the Bobcats were able to avenge their mid-season loss and pull out a dramatic five-game win that included a 16-14 score in the final game. We all sat down to assess the season at the year's end and agreed that it was a disappoint- ment, McManama said. The biggest one, personally, was the last match. We played hard and had it within our grasp, but we just fell short. So did the spotlightiby Joe Hernandez Sweden senior Diana Naof grimmaces as she returns a Kent State volley.

Women's Volleyball 299 Support gave Cords The men's basketball team rode the wave of personal accomplishment toward success as Cardinal fans swarmed University Gym to watch the Red and White's return to play on the court. While victory didn't go to the home team as often as the Cards would have liked, a 13-16 record saw few empty seats and a more avid crowd. University Gym became the envy of opposing coaches as they witnessed the excitement which possessed Cardinal fans.

Ball Stateis Head Coach Al Brown said, Our home fans at all the games were just super. They really helped us a lot. Although the team was unable to build con- sistent wins over the course of the season, many individuals took great strides in their personal careers. The media's coverage turned to the Red and White as junior forward Dan Palombezio, Michigan City, became one of the most sought after interviews in college basketball. His early season scoring exploits brought the Cardinals national attention and Palombizio a half-time feature during the nationally televised Georgetown-St. John's game. At season's end Beez found himself third in the nation in scoring and a member of the All-District Four team and an All-MAC selec- tion. However, Palombizio wasn't the only Car- dinal setting records. Chris Shelton, Danville, Ill., sophomore, set a Ball State record by dishing out 174 assists, ranking him second in the MAC. Juniors Mike Chesser, Noblesville, and Larry Jones, Gary, provided the team's leadership. They were men in every sense of the word, Coach Brown said. The two were named honorary co-captians for their efforts. For demonstrating the most hustle, teamwork, loyalty and inspiration, freshman guard Derrick Wesley, South Bend, received the Spark Award. Rick Rowray, Muncie junior, received the academic award for maintaining a 3.66 GPA during Winter Quarter.

The Cards won the game 92-81 at University Gym. A true 'full house' continued to 1-4 proved to be just a sample of the in- consistencies which would plague the Cardinals throughout the year. Over the next eight, the Cardinals were 4-4, taking both the wins and losses in sets of two. A pattern always seemed to be a game away. During a three-game homestand in the mid- dle of January. though, the Red and White ap- peared to have found the winning ingredients as they notched victories against Kent State, Eastern Illinois and Western Michigan to raise their record to a respectable 8-8 overall and 4-2 in the Mid-American Conference. The Western Michigan contest seemed to be a turning point as Palombizio exploded for 33 points to lead the Red and White to a 107-87 vic- tory. That was one of our best performances in a conference game in a long time. Brown said. Unfortunately, as quick as the wave had been established and ridden to victory, the tide turn- ed again and the Cardinals lost four of their next five games to drop to 5-6 in the con- ference. Continuing to play incosistently left them at the 8-10 mark in the MAC holding a sixth place finish but assured of an opportunity at tournament play. Off to Toledo, the Cards faced 0hio's third seeded Rockets who had won over 80 percent of their home games in the last five seasons. At halftime, it seemed as if the team would add to its impressive home court record as they held a commanding 12-point lead over the Red and White. Wesley, apparently, was unaware of the aura that surrounded Toledo on their home court. He stormed the boards in the second half hitting his first six shots to pull the team within six. Chesser and Palombizio took over from there. With twelve seconds remaining, and the score 67-66 in favor of Ball State, Chesser foiled the Rockets' hopes of a last second shot by making a steal, With four seconds remaining, he calmly stepped to the line and hit the front end of a one-and-one to make the final 68-66. However, Cardinal luck ran out in the second round while Miami of Ohio showed the dominance which would lead them to an NCAA final tournament bid. The Cards lost 91-70. For Coach Brown and his staff it was a year to build upon. With the talent of Palombizio, Shelton and Wesley returning, University Gym could expect to be smothered in toilet paper again as the Cards wipe the slate clean and make yet another attempt at a winning season Eby Mark Smith 302 Men's Basketball i1,n.-- -- - 7...K ?g- - 1- y. . - 4, . 4. f oh fi Marc D.

' y r 0 'N Palombizio It's not often that a first-year team member can step in, have everything evolve around him, get the most press attention and be named the team's Most Valuable Player at the end of the season. But this man was hungry. My erformance this season gas to be dedicated to my teammates, said Ball State's number one basketball star, Dan Palombizio, Michigan Ci- ty junior. lf it wasn't for them, I couldn't have ac- complished what I have. I played two years at Pur- due and couldn't ac- complish what I wanted. Stinging opponents game after game, Palom- bizio, known simply as Beez, had fans and the nation's media buzzing about his performances. Not since Ray McCullum, a Ball State basketball stunner of the past, had a player so dominated the Cardinal team. In high school, Palom- bizio was coached by Bill Hahn, now Ball State's assistant coach. In Michigan City, he became the first player in Indiana history to be named to the All-State team three years in a row. Not even Hoosier great George McGinnis can match that honor. Highly recruited, he took his sting to Purdue University in Lafayette hoping to find success in the Big Ten. In his two years with the Boiler- makers, Palombizio saw action in 59 of the team's 60 games but averaged only 6.7 points and 3.5 re- bounds per performance as a sophomore. The sting was missing and Palombizio didn't like 1 . It was the two most miserable years of my life, he said. I couldn't even crack a smile. Coach Keady told me I'd never make the NBA. That's why I feel I really have something to prove. That's why l'll always stay hungry. It was through endless hours of practice that Palombizio had risen to the top of his class. He had found success the old- fashioned way--through hard work and dedication. He led the team, con- ference and nation in scoring for the first two and a half months of the season. His court ex loits brought about the agen- tion of sportscasters from the ESPN television net- work and other national sports media and made Uni' ersity Gym a regular hangout for local Ball State fans. During the nationally televised match-up bet- ween St. John's and Gerorgetown, Palombizio was the half-time feature. Throughout the con- ference he was often the most dominate factor af- fecting the game as he finished the season leading the league in both scoring and rebounding. We tried everything but a saddle to stop him, said Bowling Green University Head Coach John Weinert. And that's what you need when you ride a horse. But Palombizio would be the last person to con- sider himself as talented. 'Tm just a guy with average talent who works hard and gives it his best everyday, he said. I make up for great talent by going hard at basket- ball all the time. That hard st le of play took him to the top as he was named All- MAC, All-District Four First Team and Honorable Mention All- American by both United Press International and the Associated Press. Dan's got the potential for greatness because he's hungry, said Ball State's ead Coach Al Brown. And if it's left to Beez, it'll stay that wayi by Mark Smith l'm just a guy with average talent who works hard and gives it his best everyday. 77 --Palombizio , W L 4 5- .g m f fN, - Palombizio impatiently waits to be put back into the game following a short breather. 304 Palombizio Rocky Rothrock PALOMBIZlO'S 1984-85 SEASON HONORS AND ACHIEVEMENTS 'Ranked third in the nation in scoring tDivision lb 'Ranked 12th in the nation in rebounding tDivision IJ ' 'Ranked first in the Mid-American Conference in scor- ing 'Received honorable mention on the Associated Press All-America team in 1985 'Received honorable mention on the United Press ln- ternational All-America team in 1985 'Named to the All-District Four first team by the United States Basketball Writers in 1985 'Selected to the All-MAC first team in 1985 'Selected to the MAC All-Tournament team in 1985 'Selected Most Valuable Player in the Cardinal Varsity Club Classic in 1984 'Selected to the All-Tournament team at the Sun Met Classic at Fresno, Calif., in 1984 'Had the third highest single-season scoring total for all games in MAC history 'Established MAC single-season records for free throws attempted and made in league games 'Established Ball State single-season scoring record 'Scored in double ngures in all 29 BC1I1State games 'Led Ball State in rebounding in 25 of 29 games F am Aus It fo iohn S. metzger Dan's Fans show- ed their support for their Number 1 player at BSU home games.

With five starters returning, Head Coach Karen Fitzpatrick sat down with her team and shared a little advice from Indiana Pacer Head Coach George Irvine on leadership. Experience will help a great deal, and somebody has to emerge as a leader when the game is on the line. Lacking dominatation in the middle, Fitz- patrick hoped someone would fill those shoes early in the season and prove to be the player to go to when the game was on the line. As play progressed, however, that player never emerged and the result was a position on the wrong side of the scoreboard too many times. Opening with a 87-45 loss to Indiana Universi- ty, it seemed as if the winter storms had already hit as the Cards were an ice cold 26 percent from the field. The-team went on to lose eight of their first 10 games. Excluding the Indiana loss, the Red and White lost by an average of 16 points, and as the winter got colder the Cardinal shooting became equally frigid. As a team, they averaged 40 percent from the field and only 65 percent from the charity stripe. Such statistics left them at a disappoin- ting 6-21 overall and 4-13 in league play. But the individual exploits of seniors Donna Lamp- ing, Oldenburg, and Lisa Hicks, Brazil, salvag- ed an otherwise long winter for the Cardinals. Capping her Ball State career, Lamping set the school's all-time scoring record in the final game of the season. The four-year starter also has her name etched in the record books in seven other categories and shares the honor in two others. Not only has she been an outstanding basketball player, but she's excelled in academics as well, Fitpatrick said. She's as concerned about school as she is about play- ing. Her success, both on and off of the court, earned Lamping a position on the District All- Academic Team for the third consecutive year and a place on the second team All-American Academic Squad as well. Lamping's only senior counterpart, Hicks also enjoyed a successful season. She developed consistency and was a very good perimeter shooter, Fitzpatrick said. fit tihe end of the season, Fitzpatrick, also C011 IHUE l - saw' -'O Q - Y W.'-:-.- ' ., A ,I ,' - 1 .

Her successor will inherit four returning starters from which could be built a solid foun- dation for the future. Emma Jones, Gary sophomore, leads the contingent of returners. She was the team's se- cond leading scorer behind Lamping and the only other Cardinal to average in double figures for the season. The agressive forward also averaged over 10 per contest. Joining Jones will be juniors Brenda Sum- mers, Covington, Nunu Jolliff, Brazil, and Janice Bierly, Middletown, Ohio. As a guard, Summers led the team in freethrows hitting. Jolliff started four of the last five games and averaged 10 points per outing. Bierly, will return as a regular starter after proving she has the means to score with a career high of 17 points against Western Michigan. The already solid base of starting players will get additional support from Cecil Haley, Indianapolis sophomore, and Kathy Pack, Marion freshman. Despite the valuable experience the team gained during its 1984-85 campaign, holes here and there played a major part in the teams dismal season. Consistency was an attribute rarely shared by players other than Lamping and Hicks and recruiting efforts failed to produce a strong center, a must amid the competitiveness of the Mid-American conference. But they hope to smooth over the rough spots and fill in the holes. Although it just may prove to be an uphill battle, if optimism prevails, the Cardinals could produce the right kind of ar- tillery for the job.

Breaking all the records and finishing at 11- 5, Ball State women gymnasts pulled together as a tight-knit team to have one of the finer seasons of the year for Cardinal athletes. Head coach Georgia Nesladek felt that her team showed signs of being able to work close- ly together even before the regular season got underway. For the first time in her eight years as head coach, she took her team to Fort Myers, Fla., for 10 days of training. 'tl felt as if the team was a family, Nesladek said. In Florida, they really pulled themselves together. The family atmosphere helped as the Car- dinal women set a new team-high record of 177.7 at Indiana University. In addition, the Cardinals broke into the 9.0 mark every meet. Leading the way, Dawn Helsten, one of three seniors on the squad, set new school records in both the vault, with a 9.6, and in all-around per- formance with a 36.30. The Addison, Ill., native also earned herself All-Conference honors at the Mid-American Conference meet. Freshmen Theresa Dalton, Greenwood, and Joni Trimble, Elwood, proved to be excellent performers, according to Nesladek. Dalton, who was recruited on scholarship, set new records on the uneven bars with a 9.25 mark and in the floor exercise with 9.45. Trim- ble, who was a walk-on, set a record on the balance beam with a 9.05. Seniors Stephanie Tirman, Mishawaka, and team captain Jackie Renshaw, Kokomo, each had a good year, according to Nesladek. Tir- man, who began the season in ill health, was soon doing well again in the all-around event and proved to be one of the team leaders. Junior Lisa Ulsaver, Crystal Lake, Ill., per- formed in the all-around and according to Nesladek, was a good stable gymnastf' With such consistent high-caliber ability, Nesladek said that deciding on a lineup was the toughest thing to do. We had so many good people, she said. While the team did well in dual meets, it seemed to falter somewhat during bigger com- petitions. Predicted by many to finish first in the MAC tournament, the team wound up a disappointing fifth. Despite the MAC setback, a strong team with an abundance of potential will be returning next year.

Gymnastics 311 Inexperience adds io worries Running becomes a difficult task The team came up against the season's big- gest hurdle when University President John Worthen came out in favor of slicing men's and women's cross-country from Ball State's athletic budget. Despite the pressure, Rushton said his team was virtually unaffected by the news until the conference championship race. We had trained hard and competed well all year, Rushton said. I was disappointed with our finish in the conference but the fact that the University was thinking about dropping the program affected our performance mentally.

Rushton saw the decision as an asset to team recruitment and a great help to each runner's overall performance. 'tAthletes will want to come to Ball State because they can see that the athletic depart- ment is willing to invest in making good pro- grams even better, he said. Although Ball State lost its first dual meet of the season to Miami of Ohio, they were led by sophomore letterman Dan Mulvihill, Portage, to a 41-19 victory over the University of Louisville in their second contest. But a third place finish in a triangular meet against Ohio State and University of Cincinnati lowered their hopes of any conference ribbons. To add salt to the wounds, dismal drubbings at the hands of Bowling Green and Anderson Col- lege followed. Against a field of tough teams, including conference rival Toledo, the Red and White not only gave a strong showing but earned the respect of several of their MAC opponents. When the dust cleared, Rushton's harriers had finished 14th in a field of 27 teams. Even injury couldn't stand in the way. With many runners out of commission just before the Indiana Intercollegiate meet, the remain- ing few refused to let their success die and buckled down to pull a seventh place finish out of the 23-squad meet. It was different from high school, Settle' said, but it was fun. We had our problems and we were young, but there wasn't any pressure. - Although the stats spelled out a far from in- credible season, they were evident of the ef- forts necessary to adjust to a new style of coaching, even if that style had mentored Ball State men's cross country in the past.

The plaque above Pat Wagner's desk read, Follow your dreams, for as you dream so you will become. It was a motto that held true for all Ball State athletes, but for the women's cross country team and its coach, it held a special meaning. The writing on the wall represented a testimony to the growth and improvement that had made them serious competitors. When Wagner came to Ball State in 1984, she had a three-step program that she hoped would take the team where it wanted to go. The 1983 campaign showed a need for the rebuilding phase of her plan as the runners tallied a bleak 2-5 record in dual meets. Undaunted, Wagner put the year's criticism behind her and hoped for better things to come - and they did. Last year was a matter of building a base and getting to know the team, Wagner said. They took the bull by the horns over the summer and returned in good shape and with a better attitude. Given the personal goal of 40 miles each week of the summer, the athletes took it upon themselves to make hard work pay off. With a brutal summer shape-up program 'behind them, the women entered their first meet eager to put step two of the coach's program into full swing. To make becoming competitive a reality, Wagner had lettermen juniors Joann DiMonte, New Lenox, Ill., Lee Ann Case, Indianapolis, and Chris Jensen, Portage, along with two recruits, step in. Freshmen Laura Didion, Fort Wayne, who won the 1984 Indiana State meet, and Melissa Scott, Lafayette, who grabbed eighth place in the same race, were welcome additions that rounded out the roster. Melissa brought to the team a real intensity and Laura had a wonderful winning attitude, Wagner said. The freshman duo made their presence known immediately. Led by Scott's blue- ribbon finish, all of the women placed in the top 20 of the inaugural Ball State Women's Cross Country Invitational, making it their first invitational victory. It was the most important race of the season for them, Wagner said. They had never experienced winning an invitational before. I didn't have to motivate them any longer - success did. The motivation lasted the entire season and success became no stranger to the team for the first time in its history as the women finished 2-2 in dual meets and an impressive fourth in the MAC. Two days before the MAC title race, the team found out that the program might not be around another year,'l Wagner added. Considering the pressure they were feeling, I was proud of their efforts. Despite adversity, the barriers faced the challenge and rose as true competitors. Pacing the Red and White to their best finish in several years was veteran DiMonte in 14th place. Hot on DiMonte's trail was Scott, who dashed in at 15th and Didion in 22nd, The women then journeyed to Champaign, Ill., for the NCAA District Four Meet. Once again, Scott, DiMonte and Didion were out in front as the Cardinals placed ninth out of 20 teams. The finish, although it failed to draw national attention for the women, was nevertheless a victory for Wagner and her harriers. With the first two steps of the rebuilding program out of the way and the sport spared by the University guillotine, Wagner and her team planned to run toward 1985 with a full head of steam. Wagner's only remaining goal was to take the team to a level of competition where they could win and win consistently. She bowled her first two steps over with little trouble. There was little doubt that step three would be any different. Eby Mark Smith WOMEN'S CROSS COUNTRY-Front few, Mary Ann Davey, Laura Didion, Melissa Scott, Chris Jensen.

Big dividends followed the change when the Cardinals swam to their most successful season ever with a 6-2 dual meet record and a third place finish in the Mid-American Conference Meet. We took a big chance by experimenting with new training techniques, said co-captain John Atkins, Hobart senior. We made morn- ing practices an option and worked with Dr. David Costill in the Human Performance Lab. It all paid off. The new methods served their purpose as 17 of Ball State's 18 swimmers advanced to the finals of the MAC meet the swimming program here at Ball State. The three relay teams, which proved strong all season, also chalked up valuable points dur- ing the MAC meet. One placed second and two placed third. The 400-yard freestyle relay team of Eric VonKeudell, Northbrook freshman, Jim Athey, South Bend junior, Pesut and Willig ers swam to a second place finish in 3:05.24 adding a boost for the Cardinals since relays are worth twice as many points as other events.

Freshman Winand Willigers, Esyden, Holland, also captured a first-place title by winning the 200-yard individual medley in 1:52.76, also a new Ball State record. We only lost two dual-meets and that was to Eastern Michigan and Miami, the only two teams that placed above us at the MAC, said swimmer Bernie Pesut, Martinsville junior.

However, the success was , short lived as the Red and White dropped four of their last five, in addition to finishing last in the Mid-American Conference. The almost traditional excellent dual meet start again proved inaccurate in judging the team as they lacked the strength to be a force in the championship meets. We had more of a dual meet team because we did well in those meetsf' said Head Coach Laura Siebold-Caudill. In the championship meets we didn't have enough swimmers plac- ing in the top six. In Febuary, it was questionable if Demasi would be able to compete in the MAC due to a severe cut on her shin which she suffered in a snowmobiling accident. Siebold-Caudill said the injury really affected Demasi in the champion- ship meet, though she still did well. Diving proved to be a strong point for the Red and White as Susan Allen, Franklin freshman, and Suzanne Wilson, Indianapolis sophomore, were a strong one-two punch in many dual meets. Allen finished 17th and 20th in the one-meter and three-meter diving events, respectively, at the NCAA Regional IV Diving Championships.

A royal straight couldn't have been any more dominate than the Cardinals 8-0 record in the Mid- American Conference as they defended their league crown. During the regular season the team ac- cumulated a 21-4 record to post the best slate in Ball State history. Leading the netters were senior co-captains Tom Cou ton, Bay Village, Ohio, senior, and John Mermer, Perrysburg, Ohio, junior. Early in the year Head Coach Bill Richards said, A lot of our success depends on the leadership of our seniorsft Realizing the importance of their role, Coulton and Mermer, both four-year letter win- ners for the Cardinals, quickly established themselves. Coulton held down the number one singles spot while Mermer played at number two. Additionally, the tandem paired as the number one doubles team.

Mermer finished with a 12-14 slate in singles along with the doubles record the two shared. But more than anything, it was the leader- ship and stability which the older players con- tributed that helped mold the team into a win- ner. With a relatively young team, all of the other eight slots were filled by freshman and sophomores. It is a very difficult task to try and improve upon an undefeated conference season, Richards said the team's 1984 success. Coulton and Mermer need to have their best ears as pla ers for us and help the newcomers, tio improve throughout the season. The play of the youngsters appeared to need little improvement as they stepped right in and dominated their respective postions. Playing in the number three spot, Gene Orlando, Cincinnati sophomore, earned a 21-5 mark in singles competition. In regular con- ference play Orlando finished 7-1. From there, the freshman took over on the lower ranks. The three freshman are quality tennis players that came from quality programs, Richards said. Leading the three freshman, Marty Reist, Hamilton, Ohio, was quick to prove his worth finishing 8-0 in the number four singles spot in the confeence and 21-5 overall. Eric Nixon, Bloomington, Ill., finished 18-8 on the season in the number five spot while Todd Hershey, Naperville, Ill., proved quality went all the way through the Cardinals' singles ranks by amass- ing a 21-5 record. Despite singles play quality, the backbone of this team was competitive doubles play. In the number three slot, Hershey and Nixon finished the season undefeated at 23-0 with a perfect 8-0 slate in the conference. The number two team of Reist and Orlando finished 21-2 on the season and 7-1 against league foes. And with Orlando, Reist, Nixon and Hershey all returning for the 1985-86 season, Richards will undoubtedly have a few aces up his sleeve for future competitorsi by Mark Smith ..,- ' C M ,diff 7'1 f - A 'A,,,....-...- Brad Sauter el'1l'liS BSU OPP St. Leo 8 Webber 9 Central Florida 8 Rollins 6 South Florida 3 Furman 5 Notre Dame B Indiana 4 St. Louis 9 Murray State 4 Purdue B Northwestern 5 Cincinnati 9 Northern Illinois 5 Toledo 9 Marion Forfeit Central Michigan 9 Bowling Green 9 Ohio State 4 Western Michigan 5 Depauw 9 Miami U. 5 Ohio University 5 lndiana State F0rfeiT Eastern Michigan 9 MAC Championships ist Of 9 Brad Sauter DI'OpShOfS can be an offensive weapon to use to break the rhythm of a baseline rally.

' Promising start ends in 'faulty' season N Young Cards skid to 3-I4 After a 9-0 shutout of the University of Evansville at the beginning of the season it ap- peared that Coach Eloise Wiertel's tennis corp was headed down the right path. However, the Cardinals took a sharp turn as the ball ultimately lost its direction, resulting in a net loss for the coeds. We often played 'not to lose' instead of play- ing to win, the seventh-year coach remarked. This factor, coupled with the team's youth, resulted in a double fault--as the Cards skidded to 3-14 overall and 1-7 in the Mid American Conference. Senior Liz Studor, Indianapolis, headed the list of four returnees to captain the 1985 squad. Other veteran Cardinals included sophomores Betsy Blume, Fort Wayne, Linda Hicks, Casey, Ill., and Debbie Sutor, a native of Worthington, Ohio. A tandem of transfer students and freshmen completed the roster for Wiertel. Juniors Beth Nickels and Julie Mannies brought their rac- quets from Louisville and New Mexico State, respectively, while Holly Mills, Toledo, Ohio, and Yvonne Wince, Muncie, stepped onto a col- legiate court for the first time. After a string of five consecutive losses to MAC teams in the middle of the season, the Cards finally managed to serve a loss to Cen- tral Michigan to salvage a win in the con- ference. However, after the win the Cardinals again became untracked, losing their final three matches of the season as their inex- perience showed through. The MAC Cham- pionships weren't any easier on the laden coeds as they finished an unsurprising seventh- place in the tourney. Meanwhile, Miami University won its fifth consecutive women's ti- tle, toppling its nearest competitor, Western Michigan, by 10 points. Individual accomplishments were additionaly marred by poor records as Wiertel failed to coerce any player to adequately step into any kind of a leadership role. Blume anchored the Cards in the number one singles position, sporting a 5-16 mark, followed by Sutor, 7-15 in the number two spot, and Hicks, who led the netters in victories, with 10 in the number three spot, despite 13 losses. Mannies, Studor, and Nickels filled the re- maining three singles spots, finishing 8-13, 4- 18, and 6-9, respectively. The duo of Blume and Studor teamed for a 4- 12 mark in the number one doubles position, followed by Sutor and Hicks, who failed to break even, 9-14, in the number two spot. Five combinations of players were used in the number three position, recording an overall 10-19 mark, as Wiertel struggled to find a winn- ing combination for the Cards--something that had been missing all season. by Mark Huff- man .,,,., .,..-- -ff - ' 1- 4- 7 .AA Fnrstratlon takes over as on attempted drop volley is missed during a close tie breaker in the third set.

Although rain and chilling winds reduced the temperature to a cool 42 degrees, the Cardinals took seven firsts in the season opener while Notre Dame, the only other Divi- sion I team competing, took six. I was pleased with our first outing, Coach Rogers said. The weather affected some of our performances and the times weren't outstanding, but we showed competitiveness. It was a good meet. In the Miami Open, Ball State once again led in first place showings picking up eight blue ribbons to Miami's seven. Expectation beg an to grow for the Red and White. Having carried a 5-15 record over the previous four years, things were beginning the look up for the Cards. But a narrow 83-80 defeat by Bowling Green in their first dual meet at home, and a fifth place finish behind Purdue, Notre Dame, In- diana and Indiana State in the Indiana Inter- collegiate Meet threatened the mood. The Cardinals rebounded quickly, however, by dominating Indiana Central at the Greyhounds' home track 115-39. Ball State swept the 400-, 1600- and 200-meter runs on its way to victory in addition to picking up both scoring positions in both the 400-meter and 1600-meter relays with a 1-1 record. The Cardinals also dominated the Ball State Relays with six blue ribbons and seven red. Both the 400-meter and 1600-meter relay teams took first. The only field event they claimed, however, was the long jump, thanks to freshman Dave Hog an, Peru, who leaped 22'9 to take the honor. Performance declined once again when the Red and White dropped three dual meets in a row to Ohio University, Kent State University and Miami University. Western Michigan showed its dominance in winning the MAC championships with 69 points I while Ball State's finish tallied only 19. We need to work very hard in recruiting more talent and depth into the program in order to be a competitior for the MAC Cham- 1 pionship, Rogers said. , And recruit they would.

Individually, two school records were set and two Marshall University Track marks were recorded by the female tracksters. D'Andrea White, Indianapolis sophomore, set a Marshall Track standard with a long jump of 18'7 and the relay team of Lisa Showley, Logansport junior, Chris Hoffman, Fort Wayne sophomore, Jackie Egan, Indianapolis freshman, and Mary Taylor, Muncie junior, set a University record in the 4 x 200 meter relay with a time of 1:44.9.

Dimonte, New Lenox, Ill., junior, set school and Marshall Track records with a distance medley time of 12: 16.3. The track team then traveled to Southeast Missouri and Knoxville, Tenn., where they par- ticipated in the SEmotion Relays and Dogwood Relays, respectively, with no team scoring be- ing kept. The next stop for the team on its way to the MAC Championships was the second most im- portant challenge on the schedule, the Indiana Intercollegiate. Competing against five other Indiana univer- sities, the women faired well finishing third and losing to only Indiana and Purdue Univer- sities. Once again another school record fell as Chris Jensen, Portage junior, finished the 1500- meter run in 4:37.91. This is an important meet for us every Year, Wagner remarked. Next to the MAC Championships this is probably the second main event of the season. We compete against strong schools, and more importantly, strong Indiana schools. The better we do in this meet the better the chances that the top high school athletes in the state will see us. The following meet was the Becky Boone Relays at Richmond, Ky. The distance events proved to be very satisfying for the Cardinals, but a weaker showing in the sprints and field events gave the team a 12th place finish in the 22-team field. In the 800-, 3,000-, 5,000-, and 10,000-meter runs, school records were shattered by four dif- ferent individuals. Showley, who recorded a 2:12.43 in the 800-meter run, broke the Univer- sity standard she set the previous season. In the the 3,000-meter event, Jensen broke team- mate Dimonte's two-year old record with a time of 10:02.66. The 5,000-meter record held by Dimonte also was erased when Didion crossed the finish in l7:44.58, and Dimonte established a new school mark in the 10,000-meter run with a time of 37:26.26. The Cardinals then suffered a 88-51 loss in a home dual-meet with the Miami University Redskins prior to the MAC Championships. Entering the MAC battle the female tracksters were attempting to erase a seventh- place finish from a year ago and achieve a higher score. The MAC didn't go as planned. The Cardinals fell two slots in the final standings dropping to a ninth place finish. Yet another University record fell at the con- ference meet when Didion completed the 5,000- meter run in 17:38.06. I was pleased with the season as a whole, Wagner commented. The MAC performances didn't reflect the true progress we made dur- ing the season. We had injuries that hurt us, but even if completely healthy I am not sure if that would have made the difference.

Extra-curricular activities were often given just as much, if not more, attention as academics. Campus organizations were as different in their purposes and services as were the individuals that made them.From joining a fraternity or sorority, to rooting their residence hall team to yet another victory, students pushed aside the monotony and made room for the madness. The Greek system was never at a loss for activities, or reasons for having them. The second weekend of Fall Quarter was set aside for Delta Tau Delta fraternity's annual Watermelon Bust Festival and the Sigma Sigma Sigma sorority was on hand for practice laps with their Bike Rally before Bike-A-Thonfever set in at the Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity house. Service organizations and honorary societies were busy with endless responsibilities. The year started early for Stacie Roeder, Indianapolis junior, as she led group after group of incoming freshmen through the Quad and over every inch of the Ball State campus. And the work never stopped for Alpha Epsilon Rho when new membership again became a major concern. Whether it was a pig roast, a beach bash, an officer's meeting or planning sessions, the students were there. They jumped right in and gave Ball State something of their own. They added to that state of mind with their ideas. And they got the best of Ball State in return.

On an inside page ran an advertisement encouraging students to attend an address to be given by D-2nd District Congressman Phil Sharp. The students were there. I'm surprised to see so many students came, Sharp said. I didn't expect it. His 15-minute speech left students with several ques- tions they were eager to have answered. But for those looking for appeasing answers were disappointed. There were none. This is a time for me to hear the students' feelings about the cuts -- to act as a sounding board, Sharp said. Beverly Armour, Fort Wayne sophomore, didn't think the government fully understood how the proposed cuts could affect her family and other families like hers. l am one of seven children and three of us are going to college, she said. My youngest sister is crippled and we have many medical bills. lf the cuts go into law, we'll go through more than just a financial breakdown. The government will be cutting the very stem of my family structure. But not all students with families were against the Cuts. Firdausah Jami, Muncie sophomore and mother of two, said the strong will survive. The government is just cutting off the fat, Jami said. if students show a true need, they won't be excluded. But no easy solutions were found during the session. Sharp had come to listen to students and left with a diversity of opinions that would serve him well in ad- dressing the issue. In the meantime, the Daily News ran the addresses of other legislators and encouraged students to make their feelings known.

At the book table, people come up and ask ques- tions, said Mike Lipscomb, Richmond sophomore. lt's great, because you're the one being asked. A lot of peo- ple have on their minds 'cult ' but that's not what we a e. Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship at Ball State was just one of the many chapters of a nationwide group that pro- moted evangelism on campuses across the United States. Its basic purpose said Beth Burkhardt Indianapolis sophomore was to help develop ministry skills in its members as well as share the gospel. Besides its Thursday night meetings in which the whole group fellowshiped shared and sang members of Inter-Varsity volunteered their time to participate in or lead prayer meetings book table evangelism and open- air preaching. The book table engaged members in discussing Christianity with passers-by. When I work there, I don't put on a front: I'm just myself, Lipscomb said. I'm an aggressive person and I like to come up to people and say 'Hey, are you a Chris- tian?' But at the book table, you don't do that. Dubbed as street-preaching, the open-air evangelism was done around campus with Inter-Varsity volunteers starting up conversations about the gospel and other members aiding them by asking questions to attract in- terest. Mary Beth Chapman Lafayette sophomore said that the members that she was acquainted with werent over- ly forceful. It s not like they pick you up by your lapels and smash you into the Scramble Light yelling Convert! Con- vert! But I think they get their message across she said. For Burkhardt the activities as well as the weekly fellowship were important to her because the group en- couraged her growth.

But then she grasped it firmly with her hand and pull- ed downward. A stream of milk shot into the Ball jar below and the Student Center Programming Boards Fool's Eve '85 was underway. Also featured in the traditional goat-milking contest were University President John Worthen, Muncie Mayor James Carey, Ball State basketball player Dan Palom- bizio, Student Association President Steve Lowry and Miss Black Ball State Obie Little. Lowry, using both hands in the final heat against Tenerelli and President Worthen, came away the winner. The SCPB members weren't fools when they brought The Astonishing Neal in to perform. With appearances on Real People and the Mike Douglas Show behind him, the entertainer was guaranteed to satisfy. During the first part of his show, The Astonishing Neal interlocked solid rings taken from the audience, guessed birthdays, social security numbers and nicknames of au- dience members and, with the aid of volunteers, bent nails, While I held the nails in my hands I felt a tingling -- like someone running fingers over my palms, said Jodi Stiller, Floyds Knobs junior. It was really funny because right before it happened my friend said she'd believe it if he'd ask me to help. I Students took advantage of the break in the entertain- ment to visit the booths that lined the hallways. Most popular were the Alpha Sigma Alpha elephant ear booth, the non-alcoholic bar sponsored by BACCHUS and the Freshmen Senators and the marriage booth set up by SCPB, which was complete with cake, non-alcoholic champagne, rings, marriage certificates and wedding pic- tures taken behind false-front figures. She overcame me with her feminine wiles, said Jim Crody, Hamilton freshman, newly wed to Nancy Nicholson, LaFayette freshman. Once again the students drifted into the Tally as laughter evoked by comedian Andy Andrews caught their attention. A writer for the original Saturday Night Live, Andrews sparked the crowd with stories of past per- formances and recollections of his college life. The Astonishing Neal was then offered the stage once again, but this time to demonstrate his mysterious hyp- notic abilities. Volunteers, deeply under his spell, soon took on different personalities, forgot their names or im- agined holding animals in their hands. When I was under, I was embarrassed that my blue horse had escaped, but I'm not embarrassed now, said Jeff Fordyce, Kokomo senior. I'd never been hypnotized before and I really wanted to be. A few of them may still have felt that The Astonishing Neal had deceived them, but when it came to having a good time, nobody had played the fool at Fool's Eve '85. Eby Angie Fullenkamp if W- .

McKeever crawl- ed out of bed Friday morning at 5:30. She got dressed and packed a small suitcase. After a large breakfast, she made a last check to make sure she had everything and walked over behind the Arts and Communications Building to get on the van. No classes this Friday. She had to be with her friends. Almost every weekend the Speech Team went out to other universities all over the Midwest to put themselves on the line in front of their peers and judges. But the team that finished seventh in the nation placed friendship at number one and hard work a close number two. There wasn't a closer organization on campus, said Brett Harwood, Marion freshman. We had wonder- ful, enthusiastic coaches and everyone supported each other. But enthusiasm and support were what it took for the team members to give up most every weekend to have their work possibly torn apart before their very eyes. Coach Kevin Dean, professor of speech communication, knew what it was like from his own speech team experiences. They're traveling out on weekends saying, 'Here's my speech. Tell me what's wrong with it, ' Dean said. Obviously, they always feel like they should get a nice trophy or some tangible gift for doing that, but when it comes down to it, very few people get those. That's where friendship stepped in. You got so close to those people on the van, McKeever said. You had to rely on those people. You relied on your teammates to help you out and say, 'lt's OK. ' Besides needing support and friends to give it during meets, it took a lot to keep up with everything. Sometimes members would practice for several hours a day, plus they had to keep up with classes. But all of them kept a grade point average well above 3.0. Whereas other teams only allowed a couple of events per person, Dean felt that having a breadth of talent made his team unique. At Nationals, in West Virginia, 12 of the 16 Ball State speakers attending had five events or more. Traveling to other universities branched out the team's ties of friendship. The speakers all said the best part about Nationals was all the people. We've made friends with people from Ohio to California to Brooklyn, Harwood said. Mclieever stepped out of the van at 11 Saturday night. She and her part- ner, Dan Collins, Marion sophomore, had placed fifth in duo and the team had placed second. She hugged everyone and walked into her hall. As she waited for the elevator she repeated to herself a saying she'd heard many times and knew she'd never forget. The trophies will rust and the rib- bons will fade, but the love will never die.

We're here for the students, straight as well as gay, said Vice-President Jeff Huntington, Fountain City sophomore. We've gone out to classes and handed out information about the organization to the students. More than anything though, it builds pride and helps the gay students not to be afraid.

We do everything as a group, we have the right to get involved as much as other groups do. And just like other organizations, the BSGA also had a faculty adviser, Daniel Wright, an English doctoral fellow, became the group's third new adviser in two years and took his position seriously. I think that a commitment from faculty, especially for a minority organization, is important, said Wright. 'Tm strongly committed to the elimination of discrimination and the stereotypes that gays are given. The Alliance actually serves an educational value for the University. For the first time since 1983, when BSGA was reorganized, the Alliance was officially recognized by the University and President John Worthen when the four officers were invited to a reception for student leaders. We went to the reception at Worthen's, said Kevin Christner, Muncie junior. The society there was really up- perclass, but at least they were there to talk with us and think about the group. The Alliance had received recognition from the Student Center Programming Board and each week was granted a room for meetings. And in the years past, the BSGA had participated in Earth Day, Orientation Activities Night, and Unity Week. What people don't realize is that we're a real fun group, said Christner. We encourage straight students and members' parents to come to the meetings. Educating people about sexuality through speakers is our most important function, added President Stephanie Turner, Muncie graduate student. After its official recognition, the Alliance planned to continue educating the student body about the gay lifestyle and sought to maintain the recognition it thought it deserved. BSGA had come a long way since its founding. lt had grown out of the distaste shown by students on campus to be an active organization, and it was making progress.

No dribbling of the ball was required. No jump ball calls interrupted frequent wrestling for the ball and very few official rules were even acknowledged. Even stubborn, long-earred donkeys were allowed on the floor during play, but that was expected and required for Howick Hall's Donkey Basketball. Donkey Basketball is exactly what it sounds like, said Rick Frank, Connersville freshman and the event's chairman. Players ride donkeys while they try to play basketball. lt makes for America's craziest and most un- predictable sport. Crazy and unpredictable, yes. But for participant Amy Bube, Clarksville sophomore, Donkey Basketball also proved something else. I didn't even want to ride the dumb animal, Bube laughed, hiding her face. But everybody in the hall kept saying, 'Come on, Amy. lt'll be funl' The worst part was when I lost control of the donkey and he headed down the other end of the court when everyone else was playing ball, or whatever you'd call it, down at the other basket. All l could do was grab a hold of the donkey's mane, scream for help, and pray that I wouldn't fall off. Everyone in the gym just laughed, but I was so embarrassed. sweetheart of the evening for the crowd -- the smallest and what proved to be the most stubborn animal on the court -- added even more laughter to the evening and embarrassment to the players. When team members would try to climb aboard the lit- tle bad-tempered varmit, he would do an about-face and lash out his back hooves to nail the would-be rider behind him. Enjoying the show the misfit was giving, the crowd roared. Following the fraternity victory over the residence hall team, the Muncie All-Stars took on the BSU All-Stars. Through a tough, knock-em-down, drag-em-out game, the BSU All-Stars won the match, 10-8. The defeated Muncie team watched as their victors went on to over- come the Fraternity 10-O.

They were playing a game called Assassin. The October night they played it in the library they never dreamed they'd have to explain their activities to anyone, let alone the University Police. The University cadet was called to check out a man armed with a gun. He never thought it would be plastic. Campuses from the East to the West Coasts enjoyed the tournament game where the object was to choose a victim and kill him with a dart gun, stickers, warm fuz- zies, hugs or water pistols loaded with liquid clay. The hitman, or team, picks up the victim's target and pursues him until finally only two parties are stalking each other. The survivor usually wins some money, a free pizza or a movie pass. The games been around for at least four or five years, said Botsford Hall Director Judy Johnson. At the University of Vermont they call it Kaos, at other institu- tions it's called Assassin, Assassination, The Assassina- tion Game, or simply T.A.G. Controversy over the game grew as game-related in- cidents ranging from serious to virtually tragic increased. The University Police read that a college student in the West had been shot and killed while playing the game, according to Capt. Joe St. Meyer. ' Assassins stalking their prey in a Dartmouth round in the fall of 1982 didn't have tight boundary areas. Swin- ford Hall Director Kevin Day said one hitman shot a man through his open car window while he was sitting at an intersection. His foot slipped on the gas pedal and he plowed into another car. What started as a national past-time on university cam- puses became a touchy issue, hinging on the irony of people playing a game that simulates murder while pro- testing nuclear arms, weapons control and street crimes. Some contended that it was a novel way to get students to meet their neighbors and remember names and faces. Those on the other side of the fence saw the game's drawbacks. When you draw a gun on a police officer, he's not go- ing to ask whether or not it's plastic, said Sgt. Joe Pauley, University policeman. The cadet didn't know it was a game. And who'd want to have that at the back of his mind, knowing that he'd shot a guy with a plastic gun0 Hall directors whose students played the game had held mixed opinions. Johnson had deep misgivings after playing a game herself as an undergrad, but let Botsford play anyway. Day let it be known that he would never let Swinford sponsor a game because of his personal reservations. Verkamp, Walters and Guyer had been killed with rubber darts during the first day of a private game, they chose the library to continue playing. Unfortunately, Verkamp's black plastic gun resembled a P-38 Lugar with serial numbers. Guyer escaped capture by University Police because he was not dressed conspicously to be considered a player, but officers caught the others and grilled them for a half hour, promising to file criminal mischief charges. Though they didn't, they never returned the dart guns, even after the players made five trips to the station. Despite the controversy, the game continued. But who would have thought that playing what is in essence a child's game -- all in the pursuit of fun, entertainment and friendship -- would result in an adult's heated debate. Randy Baker, Schmidt Hall staff, thought students had nothing but good intentions. lt was never meant to be more than a game of tag. Eby Lisa Hoffman 346 Residence Halls 0' re WOOD HALL COUNCIL.

It might have even been a not-too-much younger sibl- ing who thought Muncie was a route to a Shangri-La that included parties, dorm life and goofing off. Whatever the case, over 150 children and teenagers participated in the Residence Hall Association's Little Kin Weekend. Balloons, movies and games were all a part of the weekend festivities that began with a Friday night car- nival and came to a close with a picnic on Saturday. Different residence halls sponsored booths at the car- nival, including a dart throw, a go-fish pond, face pain- a d ' or' e -- cotton candy. Olympics was geared n everyonesfav it afternoon's Little Kin Coordinator Mark Ladd, South Swayzee senior, said, We were just trying to help the halls break even on things like the booths. We didn't want to be losing the shirts off our backs. Goofy Olympics has long been a tradition with RHA, but for the first time, the organization decided to form a whole weekend around the event. Ladd said that in the past, separate residence halls had sponsored weekends for kin, but each hall had so few participants it was difficult to include all the different ages. We wanted to keep all the age groups interested, he said, but this was catering to probably mostly younger kids. So maybe cotton candy and carnivals weren't your idea of fun, but Joey did leave the baseball bat at home, didn't he? Eby Angie Duffer ' Residence Halls 349 Marc D. Pesetsk Y 4-5 i Se x if X, K .

He opened his mouth to answer, but stopped to think for a moment. A puzzled look came over his face, then he began to answer. Hippo--, hippo--, hipoc-, hipocrats! He threw up his hands in hopeless frustration and laughed, l have no idea what so ever! Get me outta here! He finally answered Hippocratis, but it wasn't counted as correct in the third edition of the Honors Council and Botsford-Swinford Hall's Trivia Bowl. Stroh's team, the Sans Names, lost out to the green team in the finals. Eight teams competed for the chance to play in the event's finals. Members of The Fab Four said they en- joyed playing even though they didn't win. We had a great time, said Judy Cannon, New Castle sophomore. That was our original intention -- to have fun. Each of the preliminary matches consisted of two five minute rounds and one three minute bonus round. ln the finals, the time periods were doubled, The entire con- test was similar to College Bowl, a national college trivia competition. As many questions were asked as were possible in each round with points ranging from one to two to five, depending on the round. The green team also competed in the College Bowl regionals in February. Green team captain Eugene Wallingford, Greenfield junior, said the team took part in Trivia Bowl mainly just for fun, but also to practice for College Bowl 1985. l just liked the competition. The team we played in the finals was good, Wallingford said. With the increased popularity of trivia games, such as Trivial Pursuit, participation in Trivia Bowl had increased somewhat compared to previous contests. Randy Studt, Connersville senior, said none of the Trivia Bowl questions came directly from Trivial Pursuit, though some were similar, and, unlike the popular board game, Trivia Bowl had no categories and contained addi- tional trivia about Ball State. Trivia Bowl is another activity we sponsor to add some variety and social life to the Honors College ex- perience, said Studt. Also, it's another way of taxing student's minds and getting away from doing basic studies. The green and blue lighted buzzers were wrapped up and put into boxes and the tables were folded up and put away. But yet one more mighty contest had arisen from such trivial things.Eby Kim Simpson 350 Residence Halls Front Row: Gary Markwell, Pat Kuzan, John Overmeyer, Eric McKay, Robert Cooney.

Oh, that has to be him! Just look at those lashes. And the color. It has to be him, exclaimed some girls grouped around the table. Six pairs belonged to sorority members and the re- maining four were fraternity eyes. Each pair was labeled with its Greek affiliation but names were excluded. lt'd probably be better if we didn't have the Greek names underneath them, but this way we get more moneyfl said Delta Gamma Stephanie Demetrion, Marion sophomore. They say 'We have a sister in the competi- tion -- let's vote. ' The event earned 5230 for the philanthropic and Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity member Larry Tepe, Elkhart freshman, and Sigma Sigma Sigma sorority member Lori Claro, Mishawaka sophomore, were crowned the King and Queen of Eyes. Each received certificates for two steak dinners and two movie passes. The winner's spon- sor received a 3515 certificate from Greek's pizzeria. l really hadn't thought about it, said Claro. Quite a few many people knew it was me by word of mouth. My sisters all knew it was me and so did some of the hall residents. Passersby who stopped to vote pointed out eyes they thought they knew, but no Delta Gamma seated behind the table gave it away with more than a knowing smile. Eyes give away a lot, said Demetrion. You can just tell from them that the rest is going to be just as good.

Ndukwe and Cleland won the senior. congratulate their losing opponent on a merfg double tennis finals, No losers among the best say that superstars are only made of the bes of the best, but win or lose, a little friendly event seems to involve everyone in the spirit of competition. Such was the case with Superstars, a renewed annual competition sponsored by Chi Omega sorority and Beta Theta Pi fraternity. The event drew in about 75 spec- tators, 100 participants and S300 to benefit the American Cancer Society. The competition involved four events -- an 800-meter relay and accuracy-distance throw, a goofy relay and an obstacle course. Each team entered, either a sorority, I fraternity or an independent group, consisted of four peo- ple. Overall champion of the competition, as well as Women's Division winner and recipient of the Spirit Award, was Pi Beta Phi sorority. Lambda Chi Alpha claimed the Men's Division award. According to Chi Omega member Christine Yochem, Lafayette senior and co-chairman for the event, Superstars had previously been an annual occurrence un- til the Field and Sports Building collapsed in l982. With the completion of the new Field and Sports Building Winter Quarter, the event was reopened. But despite the event's enthusiastic comeback, the Betas and Chi Omegas didn't achieve their profit goal of Sl,500. Yochem said most of the S300 they earned will be donated to the American Cancer Society in the name of Julie Schier Bond, a Chi Omega with Hodgkin's Disease. Our goal wasn't met due to a low turnout of par- ticipants, she said. But the event was very successful considering that it was our first year back and the weather was bad. But, more or less, it was a trial run. Breakdowns in communication, especially through campus mail, were the main reasons fewer teams were involved than had been anticipated. Twenty teams entered the competition, but according to Yochem, much of the information sent to residence halls never arrived. As a result, only one independent team was involved. We want to stress, though, that this isn't for Greeks only, she said. The purpose of this is competition. Many philanthropic groups have just fun events, but this is competitive. But win or lose, it didn't really matter.

Others seemed to find time for enough activity to keep three peo- ple busy. But somehow everything got done and things eventual- ly fell into place. The women's field hockey team set its sights on one particular place with the onset of the season -- first. The goal was realistic and familiar. A 9-0 conference record and a 2-0 mark in tourna- ment play again made the achievement of a high standard look easy. We got really good leadership skills from all of our up- perclassmenf' Head Coach Karen Fitzpatrick said. We had a high level of motivation and once we instilled the winning at- titude, it made it easier for us to win from game to game. Competitiveness seemed to be in the Cardinal blood and the record books were proof that Ball State could keep up with the best. When the Homecoming spirit once again made its mark on campus, students crowded LaFollette Field for a contest that would go down in history. More than 1,200 avid Cardinal sup- porters broke Colgate University's record of 1,030 people playing Twister at one time. The feat made the Guiness World Book of Records and provided the perfect kick-off for the 1985 Homecoming theme, The Greatest Show on Earth. No show at all was the plan for University Singers when the group decided to drop Spring Spectacular from its 1985 schedule. The boycott was put into motion when the Singers returned from their cross country pre-season tour to find that their request for additional Spring Spectacular funding had been denied. We had problems getting the funds necessary for the show, Larry Boye, Singers director said, and we decided that rather than do a cheap show, we would wait till next year. ia- ' s i , ' E92 A Qgafzp - fgrqsf,-,.f::f?i5???fig V s . - ' . 1- ' A5313 f V. w Q 4 , . i . f' if.- V - '- 4 e. . -.-Ja. er. -A .

Twister is a game that is usually played by six or less persons, but over 1,200 students found it more than fun as their aim was for the Guiness Book of World Records.

Closing Lf' F 4 1 55- Ihe .,. M Were Endless tudents were ready to boycott classes and the University in general last February when the biggest snowstorm of the winter dropped almost eight inches of snow on Muncie. When temperatures dipped well below zero and the wind chill factor bottomed out at a frosty 55 degrees below on some days, University President John Worthen still refused to cancel classes although most campus events had been postponed. Some students endured the cross campus walks to class while others opted for the warmth of residence halls and apartments until temperatures rose or Worthen changed his mind. Celebration was on the minds of many of Ball State's ad- ministration. The year marked BSU's 20th year as a University and campus officials were proud of the changes those years had brought. The University today is becoming an increasingly complex university as we refine the different kinds of programs that we have and are able to do a variety of things well, Robert Linson, vice-president for University Relations told the Muncie Star in February. So, it's really a sophistication and refinement of pro- grams that we're now involved in. And the University was well on its way in those areas. Univer- sity College, a new program designed to help students improve basic educational skills, was scheduled to begin its services with the start of 1985 Fall Quarter classes. After two and a half years of construction and delay, the new Field and Sports Building opened in October to give students another entertainment facili- ty. The year had been filled with innovation, technological ad- vancement and leadership in the world of educational opportuni- ty. The interaction of students, faculty members and administra- tion officials had resulted in the accomplishment of goals and the establishment of even higher and more complex ones for the future. The power of mind over matter had taken its familiar place on campus. Only those who were a part of it actually realized what it meant, what it could do and how it could affect the rest of their lives. The simple exchange of an idea could build buildings, plan a party or complete a term paper. Mutual effort got things done. lt was a perfect formula for success. It was a car- bon copy of prosperity.
