Davidson clings to this ideal, and although she cannot claim complete success in practice, she can be proud of her renown as an outstanding liberal arts college in an age that strongly encourages technological specialization. At Davidson the greatest challenge is reckoning practical skills with a liberal arts education. Although various avenues exist through which students may gain valuable skills outside of the classroom, academics remain the major focus of life on campus. Tradition dies hard at Davidson. The past two decades, however, have been years of great change. A large part of the credit must go to College President Samuel Spencer, who resigned effective July 1, 1983. His resignation marks the end of an era at Davidson — named THE DAVIDSON RENAISSANCE by Quips and Cranks. Spencer became president in 1967, and since that time Davidson ' s vision of the world around her and role she should assume has been defined in broader terms than ever before. During these years the enrollment of minority students increased greatly, women were admitted as regular students, the international studies program was revitalized, computers became an integral part of the curriculum, and the physical plant underwent drastic changes. Ac- complishments such as these head a list of other important changes that Spencer has guided. As president, Spencer has seen David- son ' s national reputation grow alongside her endowment. continued on page 5 ON TOP OF THE WORLD.

[I 4 I The Davidson Renaissance The 1982-83 school year culminates 16 years of effective leadership by Spencer. In February ' , women celebrated the tenth anniversary of coeduca- tion at Davidson with Celebrate Women! week. Under the guidance of the Committee on Women ' s Concerns, led by Sherburne Laughlin ' 83, Davidson women banded together this year as in no other previous year. Accomplishments of women at Davidson reached a pinnacle when, in December, Elizabeth Kiss ' 83 became the school ' s first female Rhodes scholar. Seniors Scott Eblin and Marvin Overby also earned high honors as recipients of the prestigious Watson Fellowship. Two new scholarships were created this year on campus. The Donald B. Plott Scholarship was endowed through contributions to a benefit concert held January 24. Featuring musicians Joseph Robinson ' 62 and William Workman ' 62, the gala performance was headlined by New York Philharmonic Music Director Zubin Mehta. The scholarship, named in honor of the late Davidson music department chairman, will enable talented young musicians to pursue a music career while gaining a liberal arts education. The other new scholarship was created by the senior class. Amid cuts in government-supported financial aid, the Class of 1983 voted to start a scholarship, based on financial need, that is to be made possible through pledges by the seniors over the next five years. The scholarship served as the senior class gift to the school. Major issues on campus surfaced early in the year and dealt continued on page 6 DAVIDSON OFFERS VARIETY.

During fall term the College decided to change from the present trimester calendar to a semester system, effective in the fall of 1984. An S.G.A.-sponsored referendum in October showed that an overwhelm- ingnumber of students opposed the switch, but the faculty voted in favor of the semester change. Late in the fall several groups began studying the self-selection system on Patterson Court. Although no changes were implemented this year, several recommendations were made. Students generally agree that the self-selection system is not working as it was planned, but a change to a two-tier system met resistance. While internal changes in Patterson Court were being debated, the look of the Court was altered with the opening of the Warner Hall and the Black Student Coalition houses. After self-selection in February, Warner Hall appeared to be financially strong. Another house, ETC, in late March stunned the campus with a vote to close in the fall. The ramifications of the closing became a major issue on campus. ETC house members blamed the increasingly-popular Commons as a cause of its demise, but the Commons proved its worth as an indis- pensable location for campuswide events. Patterson Court was not the only part of campus that changed looks during the year. During the summer and early fall hundreds continued on page 9 ANYTHING GOES!

R_ The Davidson Renaissance of bricks were made into new walkways .ill over campus, while the perking lot behind Cannon. Sentelle and Duke dorms wee tumed into ,i lush lawn. A new parking lot sprung up near Knox and Irwin dorms, but a shortage of parking spaces persisted. Archer ' s Service Station kept busy in the fill towing illegally-parked cars. The weather at Davidson lived up to its reputation of being unpredict- able. A mild fall led into a mild winter, but a frigid spring halted in, my outdoor activities. Students awoke to several inches of snow on March 24. the first day of the S.G.A. Admissions Weekend. Nevertheless, the Lake Campus remained a major attraction for students on spring after- noons. In 1982-83 students witnessed many changes at Davidson. At the end of the year the College stood on the threshold of a new era. Many traditions of years past — the 10 a.m. post office trek, required chapel, restrictions on dating and drinking — have either faded or disap- peared. Other institutions — the Honor Code, Chalmers Davidson. Big Weekends, Hattie ' s Night, Freshman Orientation — linger on. The loss of administrators such as Spencer and Union Director C. Shaw Smith will certainly affect the school. Yet Davidson will sur- vive as it has done for nearly 150 years. Accomplishments of the past have established the foundation for a strong future. As poet Philip James Bailey wrote, however, It is much less what we do than what we think, which fits us for the future. — Jim Reese PROMOTING HARMONY OF BODY AND MIND, Davidson encourages students to keep a healthy perspective on their studies.

EVENTS BIG WEEKENDS PROVIDE RELIEF from the aca- demic grind. Homecoming culminated this year with a dance in the Commons. Divider Page 11 Bricks. In front of Chambers, they form th e heart of an intricate system of walkways. These walkways branch out like burnt-orange arteries, eventually diverging into capillary paths that feed buildings with pedestrians. Davidson apparently is proud of this system — and with good reason. Rumor has it that this walking network is the second largest in the South, surpassed only by the University of Virginia. An independent study has shown that over 4,638,732 bricks compose the system, many of which were laid in the early fall. Arriving students curiously sur- veyed the multitudinous skids of bricks, wondering how in the world four mil- lion could be used. To the amazement of all, each and every brick was care- fully laid and students would never have to walk on the grass again. One question that usually arises in the mind of someone thinking about bricks is Why? The answer appears ' EMURES o PQ ' ' I 1 t i r i after rainy weather. The entire David- son College campus lies on one huge flood plain. Puddles the width and depth of Lake Norman form after a 10 minute drizzle. If Davidson did not have walkways, students would need scuba gear to get from Belk to biology class. Of course the alternative to the walk- ways was an inter-building monorail system, but this was rejected because it would have disrupted the architectural continuity of the campus. So we have our walkways; many, many of them. They are something to be proud of, ad- mired, and enjoyed. Above all, howev- er, bricks help compose the sum of the Davidson Experience. — Rob Vaughn LOOK, MA, NO MUD! Truckloads of bricks tame the treacherous Davidson red clay and provide convenient passageways to important campus buildings. i - I II r •Ml ■i (■ ■■ ■ ■■ m i ; BROWNIE LEADERS Nancy Rosselot and Mary Grey Reddick represent just two of the many stu- dents who participate in community-oriented ac- ONCE THE AREA ' S LARGEST EMPLOYER, the college still offers an array of employment opportu- nities to local residents. U FEATURES Town and gown go hand-in-hand When the students flood the campus each September, the population in the limn of Davidson doubles. Store owners are thankful to have students once again as regular customers. Yet there is an increasing disenchant- ment among freshmen about the excite- ment of a college town. After visiting M M. Peregrine House, Giorgio ' s, get- ting free bird seed samples from Natural Foods, shopping at the specialty ' shops and hanging out at the laundry mat, a consultation with the hall counselor on how to get to Charlotte occurs. Charlotte may offer more diversity but the rela- tionship between the college and town of LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL BANDS participated in special Town Day activities during football half- time this season. Davidson is deeper than the business generated by students. The college as an institution is non- taxable, but it supports the town finan- cially and practices good business in or- der to keep the town a healthy and at- tractive place. In the past the trustees have appropriated money to help fi- nance a new fire truck, sidewalks and housing projects, as well as paying for use of public services such as sewage. Until the development of several indus- tries in the Davidson area, the college was the major employer of non-faculty Davidson residents. College professionals serve in the town government, also. The current mayor, Nancy MacCormac, is wife of Professor Earl MacCormac. Randy Kin- caid has served as town commissioner. Julius Melton, Bill Bolding, Cynthia Grant, Robert Currie, Tony Abbott, Mar- shall Case, Ruth Pittard, Dot Kaylor, Frank Bliss, Anna Burts, and other mem- bers of the college family are serving on various town committees and service organizations. College students also have an impor- tant ongoing relationship with the town. Many attend the churches in the com- munity, giving support with the music or youth fellowship programs. Several ser- vice projects, such as the Tutor Program, the Day Care Center Helpers, recrea- tional leadership and coaching at the YMCA and the Davidson Community Center, and the Senior Citizen Friend- ship Program depend upon student par- ticipation. This year PIKA fraternity sponsored a haunted house for the com- munity ' s enjoyment. Student organiza- tions sponsor events for Town Day every May. Conflicts over the noise ordinance and perimeter housing upkeep are examples of the need for the students and town to cooperate as neighbors. To this end, the SGA appointed Tom Schember as non- voting student representative to the town council meetings. The SGA, the Commit- tee on Women ' s Concerns and the Y Stu- dent Service Corps (YSSC) have commu- nity liaison officers or committees. Earlier in the year YSSC invited the community service leaders, Mayor Mac- Cormac, college administrators and stu- dents to discuss the needs of the David- son community and means of using stu- dent resources to meet those needs. As the students leave Davidson at the end of each academic year, the popula- tion shrinks, the noise level is reduced, and store owners sigh as business dwin- dles, but the relationship of town and gown never dies. — Pete Skillern LOCAL MERCHANTS reap the financial benefits. while students enjoy the quaintness and conve- nience of a real hometown Main Street.

Is it a deco- rator ' s dream? Maybe it contains three stereos, oak statues and an elephant ma- hogany table? These settings and more reflect the di- versity of living spaces at Davidson. Places to live range from the rowdy freshman hall to the sedate upperclass- man dorm to the community living of a perimeter house. Any student who spends his first year at Davidson must live in either Belk or Richardson dorms. Walking onto a typi- cal freshman hall you first notice the lack of studying and the high noise level from blaring stereos. If the hall seems dirtier than most, then it is possible that a raid by a hall of the opposite sex just took place. (Perhaps the odor of stale shaving cream lingers in the air, or maybe maple syrup remains on the doorknobs.) Yet raids are not the only form of exer- cise in dorms. Team sports — soccer, la- crosse, basketbal l, flickerball and fris- bee — are traditional favorites with freshmen. According to Tommy Cardwell, Greg Daniels, Vincent Dennis, Dick Shea and all of Second West Belk, their hall re- ceived the dubious distinction of having the most broken glass of any freshman hall. They are best noted with the Hous- ing Office for the frequent contact the glass door of their fire extinguisher cabi- net had with almost any type of flying object imaginable. Although dorm life typically mellows out by the sophomore or junior year, up- perclassmen do have their rowdy mo- ments. Third Cannon decorated its hall with pictures of men ' s scantily-clad backsides, while residents of Sentelle passed the time by throwing almost any- thing down on passersby below. Coed living at its best can be found at Davidson in Iredell Co. — Irwin and Knox dorms. A brother-sister relation- ship thrives as the females go to the males for advice on dates and car prob- lems. The females then pay back the males in the form of trips to the grocery store. Often called Sophomore Year Abroad because of the heavy sopho- more concentration there, the clusters in Knox and Irwin are made up mainly of the remains of freshman halls. Knox residents Martha Nelson, Annie Porges and Ross Thayer said it is fortu- nate that they have their friends close by, for there is danger of becoming isolated in the winter when they don ' t see peo- ple for three weeks at a time. The dorm itself is often a good indica- tor of personality. Some residents on Fourth Cannon color-coordinated their rooms, having them resemble something from Southern Living. Chip Hurley of Third Sentelle panelled the walls of his room, giving it a den-like atmosphere. Lofts also add personality to a room. Unusual lofts are found in Little, where Chris Humphreys, for example, has a contraption that moves up and down. Mike Wilkinson ' s metal loft looks like an erector set, Little Resident Advisor John Odell said. Living off campus has its advantages too: more room, privacy, flexibility and responsibility. Residents have a change from the usual dorm atmosphere without being too far away from the campus. Pe- rimeter housing residents have the ad- vantage of paying dorm rates, while hav- ing college maid and grounds crew ser- vices. Disadvantages to off-campus housing include the additional cleaning that comes with extra space, and residents of- ten complain that they do not hear about events going on around campus. The houses, too, are more susceptible to theft than dorms. Probably the most unique place to live on campus is at Emanon, where Scott Huie and Joe Roberts occupy three rooms. They have stereos in the bed- room, the living room and the bathroom. Huie has decorated the rooms with arti- facts from seven African countries and from Haiti. Furnishings include an ele- phant mahogany table, oak statues, four Kenyan wall hangings and a Kente cloth, the official royal cloth of West Afri- ca. No one can complain that there is not diversity in student housing. Rather, stu- dents have dorms, eating houses, perim- eter houses, professors ' houses, towns- people ' s houses and apartments to choose from. The choosing is the real challenge. —Linda Walker Living Spaces 17 WHACK-A, WHACK-A, WHACK-A! With a quick hand and a sure eye, senior Stan Hynds demolishes the enemy. Classifying Campus Fashion Do fashion and fads exist at Davidson? At first glance, an outsider might be in- clined to respond negatively, but a closer look at the true meanings of fashion and fad reveals not only that David- son students participate in faddish ac- tivities, but also that campus fashion is far from non-existent. According to The American Heritage Dictionary, fashion is the current style. It is also referred to as mode, manner, vogue, trend, new look, craze, eccentric- ity, chic, hot, in, well-liked, favored, and custom. A fad is a fashion that is briefly popular and can include clothing styles, activities and conversation. It is obvious that the vast majority of Davidson students do not dress in a vogue manner, but they do speak of the latest thing, the style, and passing fancies. The nationwide fad of keeping fit is reflected on campus by the large number of people seen in the weight room work- ing out on the new Nautilus equipment, and in the organization of Jane Fonda exercise groups. Fashion is also a part of this fad, evident in the students clad in sweatsuits of all colors and types. With the increased attention paid to video, MTV and video games have taken America and Davidson by the hand and have become favorite pastimes. Late on Saturday nights televisions all over the campus are tuned in to the brash humor of Benny Hill and during weeknight all- nighters the talk-show satire of David Letterman. Popular party themes include a drink- ing game called Hi, Bob!, played while watching re-runs of The Bob Newhart Show, and a party that is a take-off on the Love Boat, called Lust Barge. Remnants of fads that had a great im- pact on America remain in the everyday conversations of students speaking with slang words taken from the Moon Zappa song, Valley Girl. People can be heard bringing popular movies like E.T. and Tootsie into c onversations. Many peo- ple also refer to what Real Men would do in certain situations. On sunny days, students and dogs cov- er the campus lawns throwing the ever- popular frisbee, a fad that has enjoyed a longer life than the hula-hoop. Students can be heard using faddish phrases like big time, in a big way, and mega- in regards to large quanti- ties, and awesome and for sure as expressions of interjection. Davidson students don ' t just procrastinate some studies; they punt them. Some fads that had a major impact on the campus have become fashionable, such as khaki pants, blue wool blazers, loafers, signet rings, plaid boxers, Levi ' s jackets, anything monogrammed, any- thing from L.L. Bean, and the infamous add-a-bead necklace. Carrying a Wall Street Journal (not necessarily reading it) tucked under the arm and playing flickerball fall term are two fashions that are unique to Davidson. The general mode of dress at Davidson is the preppy look. Freshman Sherri Schwenke said that this is the predomi- nant style on campus and therefore is the fashion, but that there is very little fash- ion in a vogue sense on campus. Schwenke said that most people are more conscious of being comfortable than in conforming to the norm. Fashion and fads do exist at Davidson though they may not be obvious until lit- erally defined. Few deviate from the norm at this typically conservative school, but occasionally students buck tradition in order to be different. — Trish Lennon FIT AND TRIM.

You ' re about to be- come Fortune ' s Financial Irresponsibil- ity Poster Child for the coming year, and Sally Struthers is using your picture in her new Adopt a First-World Pauper campaign. Any way you look at it, you ' re headed for financial meltdown. Only one avenue of escape remains — after all. you ' ve already soaked your par- ents for all they ' re worth. It ' s embarrass- ing enough that they won ' t answer the phone anymore because they think it ' s you. And you ' ve already rented out all your roommate ' s records, among his oth- er possesssions. What ' s left but to get a part-time (gasp) job? Many students find work outside the college each year, so it shouldn ' t be too hard, even for you. Prostitution is out of the question — not because of the moral implications, but because you ' d starve. Ditto for any kind of manual labor. There are still a number of options available, however, and Davidson stu- dents spent a large part of the 1982-83 school year employing them, or being employed. Both the Peregrine House and Giorgio ' s once again obtained a mer- ry-go-round of student labor to wait, cook and deliver munchies to wealthier students. For those of more discriminat- ing taste, Krispy Kreme doughnuts were the top-rated campus edibles, sold and beloved by hundreds. Somebody even wheeled around a dessert cart full of original delectables, like spinach-pizza Rudding. Anything for money. If you were lucky enough to get finan- cial aid, a wide vista of interesting occu- pations opened itself to you. For action- packed, whirlwind experiences it is hard to beat the Gallery. Sometimes the tele- phone even rings. The life of a messen- ger, flitting from dorm to dorm like the FTD Florist, is certainly more than inter- esting. Embarrassing, for instance. But when you want to stay in school, you do what you can. Advice to the job-seeker: get one. It ' s difficult to persuade people to give you money. They have to think you are doing something for them, whether you actual- ly are or not. And when you finally grad- uate, if you finally graduate, you ' ll at least have some practice at convincing people they need your personal qualifi- cations, contradiction though that may be. — Mike Mason Making Money 23 TOP Oh, those good ol ' days of yon. As I remember, freshman year was spent in hot pursuit of the next edifice I would conquer. First there were trees. The night my hall counselor led our hall on a Fol- low the Leader excursion into the trees on Patterson Court will always stick in my mind. But my initiation to the upward struggle of college life came the day I moved in freshman year. Whoever heard of climbing an entire flight of stairs just to get to the first floor? Well, Davidson has enough stairs to satisfy even the most sadistic coach. The next step was Rich Beach, or the balcony above the first floor entrance of Richardson Dorm. What a way to woo the girls — climbing the columns to the balcony and then raiding the halls, from basement to fourth. I couldn ' t under- stand why they weren ' t impressed. But that ' s another story.

On Top of Things 25 LIGHTS fHE The Charlotte nightlife. The name it- self conjures up wild, entrancing visions of glitter, pomp and extravagant revelry. One cannot hope to put into a few paltry pages what has turned out to be the cul- mination of a lifetime search for social meaning. Gone are the days of dreary evenings, seedy excursions, foraging for the most dismal fun and inevitably find- ing it. This sparkling city of the gods pro- vides more than even the most luxuriant and adventurous lifestyle could ask for. Let ' s begin with Eastland Mall. Many people lament the intrusion of malls. The dehumanizing effect they seem to have on the already arctic atmosphere of the market system. Certainly such an assess- ment might be true of some shopping malls, but anyone who has ever visited Eastland would chuckle at such a com- ment. To truly appreciate this pleasure dome, you must make a special point to be there around Christmas. However, since it ' s not merely a seasonal experience, but a constant one, we can explore it wihtout danger of limiting ourselves too much. The following may seem to illuminate the grandeur of the place. Imagine you are standing two stories above the skating rink on a typical after- noon, watching young people glide like gilded fairies across the glazed surface of a winter lake. As you idly chew on your corn dog (bought from one of the many fine exotic food booths of the Gourmet Gardens ) you wish silently, wistfully, that you could be out there, too, perhaps holding hands with your favorite girl. Suddenly there is a commotion from behind you. You turn cheerfully around to wave or give a warm, friendly smile to all your friends who are enjoying this self-same communal experience and a fat woman with a bulging sack of grocer- ies slams into you like the 10:30 train from Omaha. Your wish is then fulfilled, because you are now on the skating rink. Eastland Mall is a wish- fulfilling kind of place. But this is certainly only the smallest CITY taste of what is truly to be found in the city. It has been said that Charlotte has more restaurants per block than any oth- er city in the world. From a student ' s point of view, this may be true, since more often than not dinner means an economical round of highballs or exotic punch drinks. This latter concern with Vitamin-C consumption leads to perhaps the most exotic, most mysterious culinary grotto in Charlotte: Casa Gallardo. Though Casa lays dubious claims to serving Mexican food, it makes no difference to the Da- vidson man or woman whether they serve Mexican or Nepalese cuisine; the important items on the menu are not to be eaten with a fork and spoon, but with a straw. After a couple of Pifia Coladas, the ambience of Casa, which strikes the viewer at first as being something akin to a Spanish Romper Room, suddenly transforms into a mystical Aztec warrior den. Wild voodoo music throbs all around, and the Arabian waiters, dis- guised as Spaniards, begin to add a sense of danger and perilous thrill. Too scary to put into words, really. As for dancing, for 90-mile-a-minute getting down, no place has quite the mix- ture of understated elegance and subtle deviance that Dixie Electric can lay claim to. Just a hop, skip and a jump away from Cinema Blue on the one hand and still within sight of Slug ' s Thirtieth Edition on the other, this is perhaps the social hub of Charlotte.

Bell Telephone has it wrong; there are times when talking on the phone isn ' t the next best thing to being there. Somehow at college we realize there really is no place like home for the holi- days. But at times we find a substitute for home with the help of good friends. Halloween and trick or treating this year arrived in the usual manner. Little brothers and sisters and the neighbor- hood kids were missing, but still there were costumes and lots of big kids. A different set of brothers, the PIKAs, transformed Grey House into a Haunted House. As Thing took money at the door, someone started singing The Ad- dams Family theme song. Pre-meds dis- guised themselves as mad scientists, giv- ing those students an outlet to expose their true personalities. Thanksgiving came only weeks later. Turkey, dressing and cranberry sauce — the Commons sure knows how to cater a meal. Patterson Court cooks spent hours preparing big meals that would whet our appetities for the break; but then Thanksgiving break is never long enough. Before we knew it, we were back in classes and celebrating The Nineteen Days of Christmas at David- son. Freshmen decorated the Christmas tree in the Commons, drank apple cider and ate Christmas cookies. KA held its formal, while other houses had more ca- sual celebrations. At the campus com- munity party at the Union, elves took or- ders for Christmas gifts. Christmas tree lights decorated dorm windows and peo- ple went carolling through the library. There was the traditional Vespers Ser- vice at DCPC with candlelight and sea- sonal music, bringing the holiday spirit to the campus and community. Valentine ' s Day gave students the chance to break up the stillness of winter by sending hearts, flowers and candy to friends. Parents sent carnations to daughters, while other students received roses from admirers; of course, there were plenty of secret admirers. Another surprise came the Thursday before Easter weekend; someone in a pink bunny suit visited Dr. Hess ' eco- 28 FEATURES I ' lK S |i)H CMIDSI , M) DONAHOWF.R laad .i pick ' il |oll) pulll ■dvattiilfM i h - Haunted 1 1 N8 ■ ■ HAS THERE BEEN A MELTDOWN, or is this E T on campus?

While many students attended church services with their families, local churches welcomed those unable to spend Easter at home. Maybe home is not so much a place as a state of mind. At Davidson, our friends help us gain those feelings of warmth.

JASON MCMANUS ' 56 Working atop the Time-Life Build- ing at Rockefeller Center, Jason McManus holds one of the highest po- sitions at Time magazine. An English major at Davidson, McManus has worked for Time Inc. since 1959, serving over the years as foreign correspondent, foreign news editor, national affairs editor, assistant managing editor and, now, executive editor. During the period he left Davidson and started with Time, McManus earned a Master ' s degree from Prin- ceton University ' s Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Af- fairs en route to receiving a Rhodes Scholarship in 1958. McManus said the knowledge he gained from a liberal arts education is essential to his field of work. I belong to the ' anti-journalism school ' school, he said. I think jour- nalism is a subject that can be learned on the job. Knowledge and the funda- mental skills of expressing yourself are the things you need. Referring to a Davidson education as old-fashioned, McManus said what he, learned in college has paid off throughout his life. He remains in close contact with the school, serving on the Board of Visitors. He has re- turned to campus to speak on several occasions, and in 1979 he received an honorary degree after addressing spring convocation. JOSEPH ROBINSON ' 62 Similar in many ways to McManus — including being a strong supporter of a liberal arts education — Joseph Robinson was an English major, and he too received a Master ' s degree from the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs. Presently he is the principal oboist for the New York Philharmonic, con- sidered one of the leading orchestras in the U. S. Robinson is also the architect for the Donald B. Plott Scholarship En- dowment, which came to life this year with the Don Plott Memorial Concert on Jan. 24. Robinson was the oboe so- loist for the concert; he also claims re- sponsibility for getting Zubin Mehta to conduct. By-passing the traditional conser- vatory training most professional mu- sicians undergo, Robinson chose to re- ceive a liberal arts education, study- ing during summers and other breaks with leading musicians in his field. Immediately after graduation from Davidson, he attended the University of Cologne on a Fulbright scholarship. While abroad he studied with Marcel Tabuteau, considered at the time by Robinson to be the living master of oboists. Tabuteau instilled in his students the drive needed to be true profes- sionals, Robinson said. Robinson gives credit to Tabuteau, to his training in Lenoir, N. C, and to his Davidson experience for helping him reach his present success. ANDREA MOAR ' 78 Millions of people see Andrea Moar weekly. She plays Carrie Tyler on All My Children, ABC-TVs highly successful daytime drama. Of her success Moar said: You can go anywhere in the world and be rec- ognized. After a while, you crave ano- nymity. It makes you very self-con- scious. Self-conscious or not, Moar said she enjoys her work. Ironically, she has never watched soap operas, nor has she started since beginning to work on All My Children. Moar said she struggled in New York for over a year before landing her present job. It ' s hard to be an actor, she said. It ' s hard to be hired. You take jobs as they come. Known as Andrea Murphy at Da- vidson, Moar is the actress ' stage name. She majored in English, switching from chemistry while spending her junior year in France. I swore I ' d never act or major in English, she said, half-jokingly. Yet Moar performed in several ma- j or drama productions while at David- son. She also played varsity tennis. I feel it was good to get the degree and education behind me, she said. It ' s good to be prepared for some- thing to fall back on. JOHN HUIE 78 He hobnobs with such stars as Joan Jett, Iggy Pop, The Go-Go ' s, The Pro- ducers and The Police. John Huie, vice-president of Fron- tier Booking International (FBI), as a child longed to be a rock and roll agent. He now books some of the larg- est acts in the business. In 1979 he and Ian Copeland formed FBI. Copeland, the brother of Police member Stewart Copeland, serves as president of the agency. FBI began with three employees; in No- vember 1982 it had 14 employees, and plans were being made to move into an entire floor of a new building. The key to success is to keep your finger in the pulse of the street, Huie said. No one can predict what ' s com- ing in. As for Davidson and the prepara- tion he received for what he ' s doing now, the sociology major said: Col- lege is a good environment to experi- ence life. At Davidson I learned how to think. Huie served under C. Shaw Smith as chairman of the Student Union Concert Committee, which helped him land a job with Paragon Agency in Macon, Ga., immediately after graduation. When I think of Davidson, I think of Shaw Smith, Huie said. Shaw is my second father. Huie since graduation has kept his Davidson connection alive by keeping closely in touch with Smith and with his brothers David ' 81 and Scott ' 85. 32 FEATURES HI M Mill M) HI OND-H MKI D ■ I ' H M.TIi IM, HIS OBOI LOOKING OVER HIS BOOKING SCHEDULE, RHODES SCHOLAR l.ison McManus ' 56 has |ohn Huie 78 sets the concert date for yet another worked his way up lo the prestigious position of big musical act. executive editor of Time magazine. Alumni 33 Patterson Court debate lingers . . . To a certain extent, the Davidson so- cial system defies definition. Any David- son student who has tried to explain it to a friend from another school or to a pro- spective is met with a look of confusion. How does one describe a fraternity sys- tem that ' s ' not ' a fraternity system? The Davidson catalog attempts to ex- plain it this way: Affiliation with the Patterson Court fraternities is based on individual self-selection. Freshmen are introduced to the court by open houses and invitations to meals, and they are invited to big dances and informal par- ties throughout the year. During the win- ter term, freshmen may select the house they wish to join, and every effort is made to place them in the houses of their choice. Simple enough on paper, but it be- comes increasingly complicated as one tries to understand and explain the con- cept as it has been put into practice at Davidson. Just what is self-selection, and how and why did it become Davidson ' s so cial alternative to the traditional na- tional fraternity system? To understand, one must remember the mood of the country during the 1960s when the fraternity problem became the center of debate. Campuses nation- wide were raising questions about the role of fraternities and raising doubts about such characteristic policies as dis- crimination, black-balling and hazing. Time magazine wrote in 1965: Critics of fraternities contend that they are anachronistic because today ' s college students tend to be serious about scholar- ship, scoff at any pretentions to status, consider secret rituals something for Klans and kids, resist togetherness [and] applaud all moves toward individual equality. Statistics show that such sentiment was having an effect. As the number of students attending college increased during the ' 60s, the number of fraternity chapters and members also rose. This apparent strength was deceptive, how- ever, since the percentage of students joining Greek societies fell steadily na- tionwide. Davidson was not isolated from such criticism or immune to its effects. Samuel Spencer, president of the College during this time, explained that the appropriate- ness of the traditional fraternity system for a campus of Davidson ' s size and na- ture actually was brought into question during the fraternities ' height in the 1950s. At that time, 85% of the student body pledged a fraternity. The problem was, recalled Spencer, for those 15% that were left out, this was a very serious rejection. For students who had been so carefully chosen for continued on page 37 FRESHMEN CHRISTI BAGGETT AND CHAD MAGNUSON enjoy an icy outing with members of PAX eating house.

InOctobei of 1970. after debate and consideration, the Board of Trustees voted to maintain ,i social system of small groups according to the principles of affiliation and equal participation to all activities on a self- selection basis. Since then, self-selec- tion has been the cornerstone of the Davidson social system. This is not to say. however, that self- selection is without problems or opposi- tion; this year served as testimony. 1982- B3 may turn out to be a significant year in determining the future of Patterson Court. Two groups were formed for the pur- studying the n Patterson Court ( lommittea, chaired bj sophomore War- uld, .mil the Patterson Court i louni II i • lommittea on House B t ion . chaired by senior Kan Krieg Both out of ,i widespread feeling that self-selection was not worldi originally planned; It oming merely an Ideal illusion thai misled freshmen group it was sup- posed to protect As junioi Catherine Finegan said. Self-selection? That ' s a joke! The implication was that fraternities still used a bid system; it was just under- ground. Gould, a PIKA, agreed: At any fraternity, a bid system is essentially what we have now anyway We have all learned how to manipulate the system without breaking the rules. We can liter- ally keep who we want and discourage others from joining merely by not en- couraging them. It was this passive discouragement of fraternities that led students to question the self-selection process and how it was working. Many charged that discourage- ment of any kind was an affront to the system, while others charged that dis- couragement was beginning to go be- yond the stage of mere non-encourage- ment. In fact, S.G.A. President Tim Johnston and Freshman Class President Allen Mast received numerous complaints from freshmen charging campus frater- nities with active discouragements. These complaints again sparked the de- bate over what constituted encourage- ment and discouragement, and led these committees to question the system in general. Almost all agreed that self-selection, as put into practice over the last few years, was a misnomer, and. further, that the two-faced nature of the system was confusing and hurting freshmen. The underlying meaning was why don ' t we make our theory fit our practice? It was this desire that spurred Krieg and the Patterson Court Council to study and attempt to define the ambiguous and continued on page 38 WHEN THE BUS IS FULL, the luggage i-ompart- meni serves as a viable alternative .il llii Hall mixer. Seif -select ion 37 Patterson Court debate lingers . . . misleading system. Said Krieg: Every year since I ' ve been here the issue of self-selection has come up, but the people change even ' year and we have to start over from scratch. We hope this committee can de- fine the system and get something down on paper. The committee considered several op- tions, with the goal of proposing a system that would be acceptable to all houses on the court. Everything from enforcing to- tal self-selection, to going to a two- tiered system, to going to a total bid sys- tem was discussed. The final recommen- dation incorporated elements of formal bids and self-selection. While members of many eating houses sculpted their own alternative proposals to the present system, the S.G.A. also conducted an extensive study. Gould ' s committee sent out surveys to the student government presidents of 30 schools in order to study other systems. The S.G.A. also distributed a campus- wide survey posing such questions as Do you feel Davidson ' s self-selection system operates the way it is designed to work on paper? and Do you feel that filling out your top three choices for where you would like to eat is a good way to be introduced to the Court houses? The purpose of the survey was to get a feeling for student opinion about the Pat- terson Court system and to determine the problem areas. Most agreed that the sys- tem was hypocritical, that the concepts of oral encouragement and discourage- ment needed to be defined, and that the method of introducing freshmen to Pat- terson Court needed to be revised. These findings, together with suggestions from hall counselors, house rush chairmen and presidents, were used in formulating the S.G.A. proposal. The Patterson Court Council and the S.G.A., armed with the results of their studies, campus forums and a campus referendum, set the stage for a change in the system. All revisions, however, must proceed from the students to the Council on Campus and Religious Life, to the col- lege president, and then to the trustees, who have the final say on all college de- cisions. The future of Patterson Court and self- selection as a time-honored ideal was still up in the air at the end of May, but the momentum for a change existed. Self-selection purists still cling to the be- lief that the desire of the individual and not the opinion of a group should deter- mine a student ' s house association. Staunch fraternity supporters, on the other hand, hold the belief that the group has the right to determine the make-up and personality of that group. The future of Patterson Court lies in reconciling the two. — Tracy Thompson SHOWING OFF THE LATEST STEPS at a PIKA dance, Suzie Klineman, Steve Reardon and Beth Maczka charade as carefree souls.

Self-selr More than a common eating place In the midst of numerous brick build- ings, at the end of several pathways stands a large, modern edifice supported by ivory columns and covered with a roof of green. The interior of this struc- ture is furnished with leather uphol- stered chairs that surround tables of var- ious shapes and sizes. The hum of back- ground music mixes with scattered conversations, and the enticing aroma of various victuals draws the flow of people who come to eat towards the entrance of the serving line. This may sound like the description of a plush country club, but it is actually a portrayal of Davidson ' s Vail Commons, built as a replacement for Richards and Bailey houses in 1981. Since the Commons opened, its popu- larity has grown among freshmen as well as upperclassmen. Its services have be- come so well-received that a question has arisen as to the amount of competi- tion existing between the Commons and the houses on Patterson Court. As of this year, the competition has become so great that ETC decided to fold next year due to a rapid decrease in membership, and ATO struggled to continue operating with the gradually declining number of interested people. Working as a non-profit organization, the Commons had made a 20-30% price increase in meal plans over the last year, and plans for future expansion are cur- rently being considered. Under the direction of Carleton Prit- chard, the Commons sponsors special activities for the members of the college and the surrounding community. Hot drinks and turnovers are served at exam breaks, held for a week around the ex- amination periods. For special holidays, gourmet dinners are served to the beat of a live band or wandering minstrels, as waiters and waitresses carefully pour glasses of wine. Each meal has centered around a dif- ferent theme, such as an Epicurean din- ner served in February, and a spring buf- fet served early in March. As a special touch to Davidson weekends, steaks are served on Saturday nights for an addi- tional fee of one dollar. In addition to serving daily meals, the Commons staff of 60-65 students (under the management of Lynne Rogich) and 40-45 professionals cater weddings and other local events. Meals have been pre- pared and served to such distinguished guests as Zubin Mehta, returning alumni and trustees, and President Spencer. The entire staff works at the big catering events to provide the best service possi- ble. Because eating is such an important part of a college student ' s existence, Prit- chard ensures that well-balanced meals are served and that the Commons is a pleasant place to eat, study and socialize. According to Ian Dunn, a student super- visor on the Commons staff, Pritchard is striving to make the Commons the social center of the campus. — Trish Lennon The atmosphere is a little more re- fined than the court.

The two-dimensional palm trees ho- vered above the damp sand as the na- tives, clad in shorts and T-shirts, danced the evening away. This scene did not take place on an island, but rather in an island setting at the fifth annual PIKA Beach Weekend during Spring Frolics. The festivities began on Thursday with the pledges and brothers decorating the inside of the house with colored lights and beach scenes on the walls. The pledges spread approximately seven tons of sand on the floor and started roasting two pigs for the Friday pig-pick- ing. As the pigs cooked and the fruit soaked in grain alcohol and rum, the PI- KAs prepared for a weekend of partying. On Friday, April 8, the traditional sign was hoisted above the entrance to the beach around 6:30 p.m. as guests began to arrive.

Most of the cleaning-up was done on Saturday, between dips in the hot tub outside the house. The sand remained, slowly accumulating in a pile that myste- riously formed a sand castle on Saturday and then disappeared. The weather was untraditional for this traditional party but many said that the rain added to the fun. One PIKA date said that the rain appeared to be an ex- tension of the hot tub. PIKA pledge John Archer claimed that the shouting of old chants contributed to the unity of the fraternity. He added that the rain al- lowed for more bizarre activities such as swimming up the street and playing leap frog. Not even the weather could dampen spirits for the PIKA weekend at the beach. — Trish Lennon BRINGING THE BEACH TO CAMPUS each spring, the PIKAs fill their house with sand and other beach scenes.

Although the members re- present a fairly diverse group, the wom- en soon developed the closeness that seems to characterize the members of al- most any court house. The new house had 61 members and gained 25 social members in the spring through self-se- lection. In spite of the difficulties involved in opening a Patterson Court house, the women managed to get the house off to a fairly smooth start after a brief period of eating at the Commons while the ovens were being installed. Under the leader- ship of the 1982 President Connie Kyle and the 1983 President Vickie Neale, Warner Hall gradually established a rou- tine that generally suited everyone. Warner Hall enjoys an active social calendar that includes a variety of func- tions. The women have had mixers this year with all the Davidson fraternities as well as two import mixers. Bring-a- date parties were popular, as shown by the response to the fall Fake Deb Ball, the Winter Formal, spring Champagne Cruise Party, and Luau weekend with Rusk House. Members also enjoyed such low-key activities as faculty receptions, afternoon teas for the new members, and after-dinner liqueurs on big weekends such as Midwinters and Spring Frolics. In addition, the members of Warner Hall have participated in such service projects as scraping paint off the Depot, singing hymns with the residents of the home for the elderly in Huntersville, spending an afternoon with children in the STEP-tutor program, and sponsoring a booth at Davidson ' s Town Day in May. They also operate a birthday cake ser- vice for parents who wish to send their son or daughter a cake on their birthday; the women deliver the cakes in groups of four to six and sing Happy Birthday to the surprised recipient. Warner Hall survived its first year without many problems, and the house unity is strong as it approaches a new year. The need for the all-women ' s eat- ing house is now firmly established. — Heather Jameson AT A WARNER HALL COCKTAIL PARTY, Ann Hunter entertains parents during Parents Week- end.

Their combined service covers a period of over 72 years. Along with food fights, snooing, and late night pool games, Fannie Mabel are a tradition at F M. The excellent cuisine that these two ladies produce is a tradition in itself. Per- haps the most famous specialty is the melt-in -your-mouth- Wednesday-Ma- bel-rolls. Supposedly there have been cases of attempted murder for such deli- cacies. Rest assured, whatever is asked of these two veteran cooks, it will be done with the special touch of love they alone can give it. One special advantage of F M is Open Kitchen. All-Nighters, marathon events that every Davidson student can relate to, require increased caloric in- take. At F M the members can eat lef- tovers, PBJs, or just stock up on caffeine. Late-night pool games, ice fights, tre- mendous food, open kitchens — these are all appealing qualities of F M. Most important, however, is being able to go down to supper to eat with a group of warm and friendly people who accept each other. Staying up all night talking about anything from world politics to the most intimate of matters — this is what the eating house system is all about. F M is a place where you can go for food, friendship, and camaraderie. — Doug Ammar F M, listed alphabetically: Muffin Alford. Doug Ammar. Kevin Attar. Brenda Baker, Leslie Brown. Dianne Bynum.

The bench made itscome- vith full glory in the spring. The grounds department tore down the bench over the summer, but Todd Lam- bert and his crack crew of lumberjacks were able to build a new bench. After much hard drinking and a little work, the bench was back. On the more serious side of matters, the house was nominated for the Phi Delta Theta National Improvement Award. This nomination stemmed from the house ' s improved financial situation. The house itself was renovated during the year. A pool table, new speakers, fur- niture and a repaired television set found their way to the Phi Delt base- ment, which looked better than it had in many years. This year also marked the return of the Phi Delts as champions of Greek Week. The highlight of the competition was the grand choral effort of the brothers sing- ing Mick Smith ' s Oh, Lord, It ' s Hard to Stay Sober. The house parties were numerous and crowded all year. As usual, the annual Halloween costume party for UNICEF was successful. The traditional air-band party winter term also was a success. Spring term found the Phi Delts disprov- ing the theory that all of their contests are rigged, as an SAE won the weekend raf- fle trip to Myrtle Beach. — Rocky Kmiecik «MHHU«HMMHtlHHI PHI DELTA THETA. listed alphabetically- Wide Anderson Ernie Andrews.

Cliff Woodard Phi Delia Ttu 100 years old and still strong In 1883, a small group of enlightened Davidson students threw down their Lat- in or Greek texts and decided that there was more to college life than debating in the Philanthropic and Eumenean Halls. These few men banded together to found the N. C. Theta chapter of Sigma Alpha Epsilon. This year, the brothers of SAE planned for months the celebration of their frater- nity ' s 100th anniversary. The festivities lasted four days, March 23-26. The spree began on Wednesday night with a party at the American Legion Hut, featuring 10 kegs and a band, Eli. SAE invited all stu- dents to join in the celebration. The fol- lowing night, the fraternity invited its alumni to an oyster roast. On Friday the brothers held a pig-picking with a blue- grass band. On Saturday they sponsored a tennis and golf tournament with the alumni. The celebration culminated in a ban- quet and dance at the plush Charlotte Country Club. Nearly 175 alumni ap- peared for the evening, including a member of the class of 1922. Reportedly, the stately gentleman arrived and asked a young brother if this was indeed N. C. Theta. When the student respectfully an- swered yes, the alumnus retorted, Then slip me the grip, dammit! According to the treasurer, Rob Spaugh, the fraternity spent $20,000 on the four-day bash. But there seems to be no regrets. Everyone agrees it was worth it, said Spaugh. But president J. C. Faulkner is quick to point out that the fraternity is not all fun and games. SAE has undertaken sever- al notable fund-raising projects for char- ity. The brothers sponsored a bikathon for the Kenyan school system, where an SAE alumnus currently is teaching. Also, the fraternity raised over $2500 for the library by selling charity calendars — a project organized chiefly by junior Jay Norman. —Dick Richards SAE MARTIN VALBUENA chats with young Jona- than Beattv at a fall term soccer match. 52 Patterson Court i | m , GOOD SPRING W ■■ 1K1 SSI Kl K HI IK UK I HI Kin Ing louchai ii ,i budget report foi ll SIGMA ALPHA EPSILON. luttd alphabetically Brooks Baldwin Hall Bametl Paul Bavnard Steven Bernhardt Mark Blackman |oe Bosaong.

Yes, every year on March 15 at ap- proximately 10 p.m., various sheet-clad members of ATO trudge into the library carrying knives. Unannounced (and practically unrehearsed), these facsi- miles of ancient Rome present the more hilarious portions of Shakespeare ' s Julius Caesar. Any Humanities student knows how Caesar met death. But for those scientific types remaining, accept the explanation that Caesar ' s senators, believing he wielded too much power, stabbed him during the Ides of March. Of course, Shakespeare spices up the story with a soothsayer, who predicts Caesar ' s fate with the famous line: Beware the Ides of March. ATO spices up the play even further. This year, Caesar (played by Norman Gordon) gloriously entered the library atop a bicycle.

They discovered the toga-thronged ATOites, clutching dag- gers and accidentally dropping them in Caesar ' s presence. Sometimes they drop pots and pans as well — Mark Sheffield even succeeded in breaking an iron skil- let. The constant clatter successfully pre- vented students from studying. Brutus, played by David Sisk, master- minded the plot to kill his friend, but Perry Biddle proudly claims that he took the first stab. After 25 minutes of half-reading half-adlibbing, Caesar fell with Et tu, Brute. The Ides of March is an unusual un- dertaking for a Patterson Court house, but is typical of ATO ' s uniqueness. ATO is notorious for such follies as moving its dinner tables to the lawn of the Commons, hosting waffle dinners be- neath a parachute, and substituting un- usual toppings during its weekly ice cream socials. Never a dull moment exists in the life of a sheep, so they say. — Carol Roche AT AN ATO CHRISTMAS GIFT EXCHANGE, Doug Vass reads aloud his list of suggestions to Santa. 54 Patterson Court ■Kill L0VR1 M BOB B smikk.

Every Wednesday at 11 p.m., Emanon- ites, friends of Emanon, and crashers (such as unnamed fraternity brothers) all gather around trying to get a decent scoop of chocolate, strawberry, vanilla, mint chocolate chip, or whatever variety presents itself that night. Banana split nights have been popular to many, espe- cially during Rush Week and the night of the finals of self-selection. As for Friday cocktail parties, Eman- onites practically are guaranteed six a term. Those who divulge in such activi- ties crowd around the bar in the base- ment at 5:15 p.m., arming themselves with a screwdriver, sloe gin, or perhaps the Special of the Night before the favor- it. • 5:30 television show — M A ' S ' ii — comes to life.

An additional note to Friday cocktails came spring term with the creation of a Guest of Honor. Lisa Herard, former wheeler-dealer of Emanonites funds, was the first Guest of Honor. An embarrasing photo was used for recognition. Jack Smith, Emanon ' s own marathon runner, was next in line. Chris Blake and Greg Rhodes also shared this dubious distinction. Other re- spectable house members were honored before the year ended. Don ' t get the Emanonites wrong; they ' re not always into sweets and mixed drinks! Other special events happened throughout the year. During the annual Christmas celebra- tion, a stag party was thrown for Michael Kelley. The party was complete with Emanon ' s own Lynn Powell popping out of a wedding cake, cooing and wooing Kelley. Totally embarrassed, having the entire house witness Lynn ' s provocative moves, he said, at the end, I got worried when I saw that cake. I thought y ' all would really have a naked woman pop out! Anothei event was the Countrj Dinner Bmanonites wanted to show theii appreciation for their retiring cook menu plant I lunsuckei held a fund-raising dinner in her honor. The dinner, complete with Emanon ' s famous congo bars, was a tremendous success due to the cooperation of each house member in selling tickets, plan- ning, serving, and some performing dur- ing dinner. Many other events took place such as band parties with PAX, discos with |on Glance, John Marks, Warren Gould, and other notable local DJs. One of the last events of the year at Emanon was the fate of its newly placed sign above the front entrance. The sign just appeared out of nowhere. Several house members objected to the sign, for, as everyone knows, Emanon is No Name spelled backwards; therefore, how can it be justified to have a name sign for the house? President Caroline Boudreau brought the issue before the house; members voted unanimously to take the sign down to maintain their No Name image. Of all house meetings, this one went down in history as the only issue the en- tire house could agree upon. — Dale Withrow EMANON MEMBERS. listed alphabetical Adenis. Doug Austin.

HOUSE CLOWNS Sloan Warner and David Rowe examine the latest finding in an ice cream bowl. 58 Patterson Court - PAX ' s popularity soars Many students seem to feel thai the coll, ipse of ETC marks the beginning of the end for Patterson Court. Indeed, sev- eral houses on the Court are struggling to maintain a healthy number of members. One house, however, appears to be im- mune to the problems plaguing most of the coed eating clubs. After spring self- selection. PAX fared better than any oth- er coed house on the Court with a list of 46 freshmen. How can PAX remain so strong when other houses are suffering? President Drew Wells pointed to several reasons. He said PAX offers an atmosphere dif- ferent from the rest of the Court. Many freshmen were attracted to the low-key environment around the house. House members spend their afternoons playing bridge, backgammon, and (weather per- mitting) volleyball. Wells stated further that PAX ' s social program offers an alternative to the typical band parties around the Court. Social Chairman Kathy Clark added that all of PAX ' s parties have a theme such as an Hawaiian luau or the PAX Pub. There is music, but not so loud that no one can talk. There is beer, but not so much thai i ■ ii standing. And, Friday night in the spring, the house celebrates the end of the with .1 keg ni(l ,i cookoul Another key attraction of PAX m the group ' s road trips. In the winter. 50 PAXites threw down their books, and headed west to Banner Elk for a . end of skiing at Seven Devils. In April, PAX packed up again and took off for North Myrtle Beach for three days of sun, well-organized shaving cream wars, and beach volleyball — not to be con- fused with regular volleyball. Shaving cream and volleyball not- withstanding, PAX is first and foremost an eating club. Wells said that the food and the open kitchen policy at PAX played a key role in attracting freshmen. The house is extremely pleased with its cooks Beatrice Dagenhart and Rosalyn McClean, who team up to provide a var- ied menu — from Chinese to Mexican. The meal plan also features an unlimited salad bar, Cory the coffee machine and the revered Silver Cow (or milk ma- chine). —Dick Richards PAX 59 BSC diversifies Court There is more to being black than meets the eye, spoke Charles Hooks in the play No Place to be Somebody. The Black Student Coalition ' s perfor- mance of the Charles Gordon drama re- presented one part of the group ' s con- tinuing effort both to provide a point of cultural identity for its black members and to broaden Davidson ' s perceptions of black heritage. The new house on Patterson Court, which opened in the middle of winter term, served as the scene for open-camp- us parties, a jazz band performance and a formal reception as an official opening for the campus. The BSC in continuing its involvement with the entire campus this year spon- sored a spring fashion show and a cultur- al arts festival, A Celebration of Life, performed in the 900 Room of the Union. Also, because of the relevance of na- tional and community affairs to black students at Davidson, the BSC branched into other areas of human rights con- cerns. In the winter the organization sponsored a weekend trip to Washington, D.C., to be a part of the Martin Luther King Jr. Birthday Celebration. The 1983 Martin Luther King Jr. Lecture Series brought to campus Lerone Bennett Jr., se- nior editor of Ebony magazine and au- thor of Before the Mayflower.

Fifty-four students belonged to the BSC this year. The group was led in the fall and winter by junior Anne Elliot and in the spring by senior Charles Hooks. One of the BSC ' s most popular activi- ties in 1982-83 was sponsoring the Gospel Choir, which was open to all students. The group, directed by sophomore Aton- dra Williams, performed at events such as DCF meetings, church services, and banquets during the year. — Janet Stovall AT THE BSC OPEN HOUSE, Dr. Holland chats with BSC members amid new furniture and a ren- ovated Patterson Court house. 60 Patterson Court ATONDRA WILLIAMS AND WILLIAM BYNUM MODELING A STUNNING OUTFIT.

The KAs began the year with August ' s welcome surprise — one of the three Hoover Awards presented at the Nation- al Leadership Institute. Understandably proud of their first Hoover, the KAs for the past five years have won the Ammen Award, based on financial standing, contribution to the Muscular Dystrophy Association, recom- mendations by faculty and GPA. Of those who apply for and receive the Ammen, the three chapters having the highest point totals are awarded Hoo- vers. And according to 1982-83 President Chuck Hasty, the Davidson chapter was not only in the top three — it held the highest point total over-all. In other words, Davidson ' s KAs have shot to the very top ol the national fraternity Tin- KAs had additional opportunities fur delirium when they pulled a de- ■i win from the intense KA Gold Rastro flickerbaU rivalry. 2b-2 The house also devoted much energy to its MD fund-raising activities, from T- shirt sales to discos to delivery of milk and cookies. All told, the chapter by April had raised around $3300 for MD. Another KA success was the Best Air Band Award, presented after their per- formance at Phi Delta Theta ' s annual contest.

Phi Gammo Delta P7 Sig Ep house enlivens Main St. The Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity, having an off-campus house, has most of its open parties at the beginning of the year. Almost every party follows an interesting theme. A Fountain of Youth party in the fall was not only attended by students, but Chalmers Davidson was seen consuming vast quantities of the miracle punch that flowed from makeshift fountains. The alter-ego party attracted many a pimp and prep. During the course of the year, the SPE little sisters, headed by Frances Palmer, sponsored a fake prom at ETC for Midwinters, a New Orleans party, and several other activities. In the fall, the brothers had a barbeque for the freshmen and faculty and did a repeat performance in the winter for the fac- ulty and their families. Football season was busy for the Sig Eps with a cocktail party after every game, a big breakfast after the home- coming dance and an ice cream social for the freshman girls. Although there were many events during the year, one of the most appre- ciated was the Sig Ep formal during Spring Frolics, held at the Sharon View Country Club in Charlotte. The broth- ers and little sisters danced the night away to the music of the Lyrics. The only sad note for the Sig Eps came with the closing of ETC, where many of the brothers and little sisters ate. — Trish Lennon WHERE THERE ' S FOOD, THERE ' S SIG EPS, or so it seems, as brothers dig in at a buffet. 68 PATTERSON COURT Sigma Phi Epsilov 69 A MAN OF MANY TALENTS, C.

In the March 18 Davidson- ian, Jeff Mann called tor an activist SGA. He argued that the SGA was be- coming a service club and neglecting its more important duty: to represent students ' iew s and exert influence on how the school is run. Indeed, the SGA has sponsored many service projects such as the careers symposium, admissions weekend, and the phonathon. Is their role to serve the college with such projects or to act as a representative organization? SGA President Hunter Monroe said, SGA can do both. He disagrees with Mann and asserts that the SGA ' s task is not solely to represent students ' views. Monroe pointed to the SGA by-laws, which state that one responsibility of the SGA is to share with the Board of Trustees, the faculty, and the adminis- tration the responsibility for develop- ing and maintaining Davidson as a su- perior academic community. The By- l..n s have always called on the SGA to provide services to the college as well as to represent the collective views of the students. The service projects undertaken this year by the SGA include leadership training programs and the establish- ment of an acceptable faculty evalua- tion form, as well as the traditional pro- jects. Monroe said the SGA is limited in how far it can voice student opinion. We have no power, he said. The SGA must use its influence to represent the students. The faculty and administra- tion are not obligated to comply with the SGA. This is why a good rapport between SGA and the administration is crucial. One of Monroe ' s goals for 1983- 84 is to establish a workable relation- ship with the new college president. After one term as SGA president, Monroe has encountered several frus- lYHOf trations. He has tound the college slow to change. For example, Davidson has been slow in accepting computers and starting courses in computer science. Another frustration he has met is the students ' quickness to criticize be- fore all the facts are in on an issue. For instance, many students complain that the Commons is going to undermine Patterson Court, but they rarely ask about the long-term advantages of a large eating complex. Monroe suggested that the SGA could be much stronger if students were more critical of themselves. — Dick Richards OUTLINING AN SGA PROPOSAL, Vice- President Lentz Ivey carefully checks his wording. VYING FOR THE SGA PRESIDENCY, Hunter Monroe and Ester Kim leave remnants of their campaigns on Eu Hall. Vote rXFEFUM FOR S ' ufr PRESIDENT SGA 75 Committees reflect campus opinion Under the direction of the SGA presi- dent and vice-president, Tim Johnston and Boe Young, and with the leadership of committee chairmen, SGA commit- tees were active this year in working toward their goals. Several committees were more active than others, depend- ing on the current campus concerns. Each of the groups was formed with the interests of the student body in mind. One of the greatest concerns on campus was investigated by the Patter- son Court Study Committee, chaired by Warren Gould. According to Gould, the goal of the group was to study Da- vidson College ' s self-selection system on Patterson Court and to compare that system to other social systems used at various colleges. The committee ac- complished its task by asking students to participate in surveys, attend open forums, and communicate their opin- ions about the system. Committee members spoke with College President Sam Spencer, students and faculty, col- lecting complaints and ideas on how to deal with self-selection and its enforce- ment. This committee will continue the study of Patterson Court in 1983- 84. The Careers Committee, according to chairman Anne Hurt, was responsi- ble for the annual career symposium, and will be cooperating with the NC Fellows next year to bring individuals from Charlotte and other areas repre- senting a wide variety of career paths and issues to meet with small groups of students to discuss their personal ex- periences. The Admissions Committee is an im- portant part of the Student Admissions Team and organizes SGA Weekend for the spring. This organization was suc- cessful under the leadership of Ester Kim, who coordinated SGA Weekend for the second consecutive year. Another annual event promoted by an SGA committee is the phonathon. The 1982 phonathon, directed by Ken Krieg and McNair Helm, was success- ful in soliciting funds for the Living En- dowment. The responsibility of the Rides Com- mittee was handed over to the fresh- men, who were successful in establish- ing an organized system of rides to and from Douglas Airport, led by Allan Mast. Ester Kim emphasized that anyone who is interested in SGA is able and encouraged to participate. Not many people realize that every student is a member of SGA. She also said, With more people on committees, more can be accomplished. SGA is interested in representing different types of people on campus and making their opinions heard. — Trish Lennon 76 ORGANIZATIONS si iok ( i ss i ' Ki sini NT Sherburne Laugh tin, itanda by In lha galler) awaiting Ihi tall) i fundi ralaed bj tl ' phonathon i r.-w o i i i i c Notquita bul Dii k l eetrleato I ii ' |i]ims,iiiI in iinli ' i In h.ii ni ' i support Irimi ilium in during tin 1 phonathon FLANKED BY WOMEN, this trustee undoubted- ly will hear about the topic of sex-blind admis- sions.

Every spring three members of each class are elected to the Honor Council. At the same time, defense advisors and student solicitors are elected. After they take office, what do these people do? Mum ' s the word when it comes to Honor Council hearings. A mock tri- al, a picture or two in the yearbook, and an irate letter from the chairman to the Davidsonian editor (or, more common- ly, vice-versa) sums up the publicity given to this all-important group. The bulk of the work falls on the sec- retary, chairman, defense advisors, and student solicitors. Hearings hardly ever occur at convenient moments. As a general rule, people cheat at the peak of pressure. Unfortunately, this peak usually is during midterm week or ex- ams. Honor Council secretary for two years, senior True Davis spent hours contacting members of the council, set- ting up the tape recorder in Phi Hall, and transcribing tapes into neat notes after each hearing. She attended all hearings without the right to vote at the conclusion of the trial.

Honor Council 79 Publications Board pursues quality In December the Publications Board, an organization that disbanded several years ago, was reactivated by Jim Reese, editor of Quips and Cranks. The past function of monitoring the fi- nances of campus papers, magazines, and annuals was expanded to include policies to ensure the quality of camp- us publications, according to Reese. The Board is composed of the editors and business managers of The David- sonian, Wildcat Handbook, Quips and Cranks, The Miscellany, and Hobart Park. The chairman and secretary were Jim Reese and Suzanne Dickey, respectively. Bob Currie, college busi- ness manager, served as the adminis- trative advisor. The Publications Board this year served the purpose of handling finan- cial problems and approving upcoming business managers. The Board brought a proposal before the SGA to attempt to change the form of elections of publications editors in the future by having them appointed by a committee. Reese pointed out that during the year the Board attempted to make the proposed budgets of the publications more reasonable, and, in doing so, passed two proposals to the Activities Tax Council to reduce the budgets of Hobart Park and The Mis- cellany. The Publications Board is aimed at continuing as an active campus organi- zation in upcoming years. — Trish Lennon 80 ORGANIZATIONS I ' l l (. Ill) iji [PS .S I K WKS III l)(.l I Mike [anlillo.

Publications Board 81 TRYING TO FIND THE PERFECT PHOTO, Jeff Mann readies for another issue of The Davidson- ian. Covering all the angles Compiling the tidings, ideas and opinions of a college community in a coherent publication admittedly is no easy task. Davidsonian Editors Ann Meador and David Resnik have teamed up to provide the college with respon- sible and informative journalism in a quality newspaper. The key to a decent newspaper, Meador explained, is organization. The task of the two editors is to co- ordinate the efforts of 40 students on the Davidsonian staff. They must edit articles coming from all directions — the news staff, the sports staff, the opinions staff, and the features staff. Further, they must oversee the photog- raphy, typesetting, layout and other ac- tivities that accompany the production of a newspaper. Believing that national and interna- tional news is beyond the scope of a college newspaper, Meador and Resnik have decided to concentrate primarily on local issues. The focus of the news is Davidson, said Meador. Stylistic changes sought by the editors include improved consistency in all areas and a switch to a more traditional layout form. Producing the Davidsonian can be a thankless job. Most students have no idea of the amount of work that a qual- ity newspaper requires. Though the staff is busy throughout the week, B2 ORGANIZATIONS Thursday nights are particularly long and hard. The Davidsonian office bus- tles as editors, typesetters and layout crew rush to finish their jobs before the Friday morning deadline. Although the production of a news- paper is a strain, financing it is still an- other battle. The Davidsonian has suf- fered financial difficulties this year primarily due to past mismanagement and problems with an expensive type- setting machine. But with the sound management of Business Manager Lentz Ivey, the financial situation of the newspaper has improved markedly. Ivey helped increase the newspaper ' s revenues by providing typesetting ser- vices and selling more ads and sub- scriptions. The 1982-83 budget was set at $19,760. Paid positions on the David- sonian staff include typesetters and ad salesmen on the business staff. Also, the editors are paid what Meador calls a token salary for each issue. The re- porters, feature writers, and photogra- phers volunteer their time and talents to the newspaper. A responsible paper that presents news truthfully and also offers a vari- ety of viewpoints is an integral part of a free-thinking college. Meador, Resnik and their staff strive to reach such a goal. — Dick Richards X- IJUIIimiMW IruniKow Thimton Halcher Rov. 2 And III |cff Mann [JawdRnnik unidrntificd Tim .

It ' s . . . it ' s . . . Quips 6- Cranks!! The 1982-83 Quips fr Cranks staff was composed of approximately 75 en- thusiastic, creative workers. Together they were able to meet four 100-page deadlines and maintain a degree of sanity. The staff achieved this phenomenal feat under the organized direction of Jim Reese, editor-in-chief. Reese ' s right-hand women, Tracy Thompson, Carol Roche and Catherine Finegan, spent untold hours proofreading lay- outs, with copy editor Kathy Gratto editing reams of articles and photo edi- tor Jim Morgan taking and developing scores of pictures. This group effort began early in the fall term with a Quips ■ Cranks staff retreat to Banner Elk, N.C. There, they spent the weekend of September 25-27 drawing layouts, developing concepts and getting to know each other. According to Reese, It was a week- end of brainstorming. The core of the staff went on the trip, and we accom- VIRTUOSO TYPISTS Catherine Finegan and Kathy Clark peck away and edit yearbook copy simultaneously. plished a lot. It was a good starting point for the year. Reese, Gratto and the section editors, however, actually got their start during the previous summer. Each section edi- tor was asked to design three layouts and mail them to Reese. He then criti- qued and returned the layouts. In this way, much of the layout design was set by September. Gratto spent her summer working on new and interesting copy ideas. To- gether, she and Reese were able to cre- ate a theme and pinpoint articles that would tie in with this theme. Kathy was a big help, Reese said. She came up with some ideas that had never oc- curred to me. The 1982-83 Quips 6- Cranks was a success through a year ' s hard work. This edition had the largest staff in Da- vidson ' s history and had a larger work- ing budget than any prior yearbook. The staff set out to create an ambitious book, one that would accurately repre- sent Davidson and her inhabitants. The staff was proud of its final result and believed it to be a creation surpassing all previous yearbook publications. — Catherine Finegan q e- C 85 Campus magazines seek creativity An unfortunate fact about college life is that exams, research papers, labs and problem sets often stifle creativity. Scot Myers, co-editor of Hobart Park, be- lieves that students should be encour- aged to create. Hobart Park serves as a creative outlet for students, he ex- plained. As opposed to the MisceJJany, which occasionally publishes works by Davidson students, Hobart Park ' s pages are reserved for students to express themselves through poetry, essays and short fiction. In the past Hobart Park has published photography and drawings by students. But for financial reasons, as well as for lack of interest, Hobart Park now con- fines itself to writing. Myers has found the insufficient fund- ing of Hobart Park frustrating. For the past few years, the issues of the literary magazine have become thinner and thinner. The spring issue contained only 64 pages. Myers and his co-editor, Su- zanne Dickey, have been forced to reject many worthy pieces. In fact, Hobart Park has been able to accept less than 20% of its submissions, according to Myers. The spring issue contained some sex- ual and religious subject matter that of- fended some readers. We ' re not con- cerned with controversy, Myers said. He believes that Hobart Park should publish the best student submissions it receives, regardless of whom they of- fend. If it offends you, turn the page, he quipped. The Miscellany, Davidson ' s other lit- erary magazine, has a different purpose than Hobart Park. The Miscellany pub- lishes the best poetry, short fiction and essays it can find. We are nondiscrimin- atory, said Co-Editor Stewart Cauley. The Miscellany is not obliged to give Da- vidson students preferential treatment. The fall issue (the only issue published this year) contained no submissions from Davidson students. It did, however, pub- lish authors from Vermont to Florida. It attracts contributors by advertising in professional journals. Discussion arose this year concerning The Miscellany ' s claim to Activities Tax Council funding. Since student work rar- ely appears in its pages, the ATC decided to finance the magazine only if students serve as editors. However, the ATC did cut The Miscellany ' s funding by $600, encouraging the editors to seek funds from other sources. Cauley and Debby Williams have the final say as to what The Miscellany pub- lishes. Thus, the literary magazine is still a student publication. But, according to Williams, The Mis- cellany differs from Hobart Park in an important sense: Our standards are higher. She believes that The Miscella- ny attracts better, more diverse contribu- tions. In 1983, Cauley and Williams hope to pursuade a well-known writer to help critique contributions and select the best piece. — Dick Richards 86 Organizations EASTING I l ' H )H RTPARKISATKDIOUS|OB 1,1 i o i dlton skii Myan ind Suzanne who lerved undei Editor Brii In htnei u n IMUming thfir DOaitloni In M.in h Misi III V CO-EDITORS STEWART CAULEY .mil Dabby Wllllami tough) mora money for thru publl( ation tin- ' year, but instead were cut by the AH Hobart Park The Uscellan - 97 Frosh learn ABCs from Handbook One of the most exciting days of an incoming Davidson freshman is when the Wildcat Handbook arrives. The fol- lowing weeks are spent thumbing through, reading and re-reading the names of classmates, and thinking about pictures of potential friends, hallmates and dates. What most people don ' t think about is the time and effort put into the Handbook. Published late in the school year by a small staff, the Handbook is not only a guide to associate names with faces, but also includes several articles writ- ten by upperclassmen about campus life, a glossary of Davidson jargon, a map of the campus and many other goodies. Frances Palmer and Lindsay Rader, as co-editors of the 1983 Wildcat Hand- book, worked plowing through pic- tures and names, planning layouts and updating the Handbook, but the most time-consuming chore was selling ad- vertisements. Rader commented that ads are essential for a small publica- tion. Each year the Handbook is complet- ed almost simultaneously with com- mencement and is then handed over to the dean of students office for summer mailing. The copies are then delivered to all incoming freshmen and their par- ents, with the remainder being distrib- uted to the administration, faculty, hall counselors, resident advisors and freshmen advisors. Half copies with only pictures and names are printed for members of the student body and are available at the beginning of the year on a first-come, first- serve basis. Since freshmen are bombarded dur- ing the summer and at the beginning of the year with letters about their up- coming year, the Wildcat Handbook is about the only thing the freshmen can keep to refer to periodically, Palmer emphasized. We ' ve tried this year to eliminate some unnecessary parts of the Handbook and to include more vi- tal information. The Wildcat Hand- book is, and most likely always will be, a desired reference guide and intro- duction to Davidson. — Trish Lennon FRESHMAN MATT MORRIS RELAXES in the Union reading the Communique on a study break. 88 ORGANIZATIONS Communique •folds WILDCAT HANDBOOK EDITORS Lindsay Rader and Frances Palmer discuss typesetting with Ann Meador. LOOKING OVER THE FINISHED PRODUCT. Communique Editor Paul Kowert checks for missed errors. Problems plagued The Communique this year. Following the success of sev- eral issues of the freshman newspaper last year, the staff this year was unable to organize effectively. The result of the small staffs efforts came on the last day of classes in the form of a four-page newssheet. Freshman Paul Kowert edited the Communique. In an editor ' s note in the issue, he noted the staff ' s problems, particularly with recruiting enough freshmen to work for the publication. In the process of preparing this is- sue. Kowert wrote. I have discovered something: Davidson College no longer needs the Communique. Some may well ask if Davidson ever needed a freshman newspaper. The answer to this, I think, is yes! According to Kowert ' s column, the Communique will not receive funds from the Activities Tax Council to pub- lish next year. Thus, the short-lived pa- per is now defunct. — lim Reese Handbook Communique 89 SPINNING A VARIETY OF ALTERNATIVE MU- SIC, )ohn Walsh is a part of VVDAV ' s Flipsides crew. GARRY SULLIVAN CHECKS OVER some of the music he plans to play until the wee hours of the morning. WDAV PROGRAM DIRECTOR Theresa Woody pulls a classical album from the shelves in the WDAV studio. Woody broadcasts during the day, when a classical music program is followed. 90 Organizations The flipside of WDAV During the day, Davidson ' s radio for the arts plays such classical favorites as Strauss and Chopin, but in the wee hours of the night the Flesheaters, the Blasters and a host of other creatures escape onto the airways. From 11 to 1 each night, WDAV offers its listeners alternative musical program- ming. Monday-Thursday it ' s Flipsides, an alternative rock program, and Friday- Sunday it ' s )azz Sides, an alternative jazz show. Senior Jonathan Glance, WDAV ' s al- ternative music director, explained that the main purpose of alternative pro- gramming is to allow WDAV to play new music before any other local sta- tions do. This, he contended, is what puts WDAV on top. There are various types of alternative music, Glance continued, and our lis- teners are exposed to these different types with each DJ. Although most large music companies require payment for their new releases, independent com- panies send albums to WDAV free of charge, giving the station a wide selec- tion from which to choose. Each DJ is responsible for 90 minutes of program- ming plus 30 minutes of listener requests; thus, the alternative shows are as varied as are the personalities of the hosts and their audiences. For his show, Glance tends toward a dance or reggae sound. Junior Joe Jaworski, however, prefers a heavier type music, while seniors Will Kendrick and Scott Eblin like a more moderate, SENIOR JON GLANCE directs the Flipsides pro- gram for WDAV, as well as writes record reviews for the Davidsonian and plays for Ice-9. middle of the road sound. Sophomore Jenny Cooper plays lighter music and fo- cuses on a variety of female groups, whereas John Walsh prefers to touch on all types. Some of the music WDAV receives, however, is never played on the air be- cause of Glance ' s belief that alternative music on WDAV should not crossover with music heard on other local stations. The only exceptions are an occasional crossover with WPEG because WDAV listeners do not often hear soul music. Glance ' s goal is to stay ahead of the other stations in the area, but this isn ' t always easy. It is getting harder and harder for WDAV to stay on the top as far as playing new music goes, Glance said. Whereas there used to be a three-month lag between what WDAV and other local stations were playing, now it is down to a week. Glance partially attributed this to the creation of MTV, music television. Glance, an honors English major, con- tributes heavily to music on the David- son campus. In addition to being Alter- native Music Director for WDAV, he writes album reviews for the Davidson- ian and performs in the student band, Ice-9. Glance hopes to begin a career in telecommunications upon graduation. WDAV has offered Glance the chance to gain practical experience in his cho- sen field and, at the same time, has of- fered its listeners a pleasurable night- time alternative. — Lisa Lano WDAV 91 PIED PIPER LUCY MARSHALL practices a piece of music with the Wind Ensemble. 92 ORGANIZATIONS UIMMNMMIIII l I H M1 Krunl Kom II K,. I Bill Haard Both Harron I Ind) I lark M Calharlna McMillan WlllUmUwIni M Lawln| Wirlnin i.i«r MallaaaMcKallhan AndyHan i MarkBurrli i irll NoTthrup Mm] K .-t..-. . .. n , Hannah Moon lint Rodd Mufvrini PalSellan lonUwr) Norminl Ion Nancy Sloudl Rom Dabb) Wllltami Ion n Handrla DanlM Gyaui h Phillip Rica Paul Kowarl Kail) M brla Ma i Row I Hunlai Monroa lafl ian Matial Brian Flanagan Karl Lorani Barl Wtoolan McKallhan Yataalannon Hank van Devenlai William Doc Lawingand the Wind Ensemble know how to make beautiful music together.

Laughter breaks out in the back of the room and conversations get muffled as the Da- vidson College Concert Choir warms up both muscles and voices in prepara- tion for another rehearsal. Several times a week this group of over 50 peo- ple meets to practice and enjoy the art of producing concert music. The most ambitious project of each year is the spring tour. This year the choir prepared a difficult program, highlighted by the music of Brahms. Folk songs from several eastern Euro- pean countries were performed sepa- rately by the men ' s and women ' s chor- uses. Seven languages were represent- ed in the music, and learning pronunciation was one of the greatest challenges for the group. The itinerary for the trip included Montgomery, Shreveport, Dallas, Hous- ton, Baton Rouge, Selma and Green- ville.

Throughout the year, the Concert Choir performed for the college com- munity during three convocations, baccalaureate and graduation. The Christmas Vesper service included sa- cred music sung in the Davidson Col- lege Presbyterian Church. The Concert Choir also performed a Homecoming concert and a spring concert in May. The group made two additional trips this year. The first took place in Octo- ber when the choir joined other groups to sing for a convention in Atlanta, and the second was in April when the choir reaffirmed the ties between Davidson and Rumple Memorial Presbyterian Church of Blowing Rock, N.C. The Concert Choir is directed by mu- sic Professor Vladimir Morosan. The group was formed in the fall of 1981 when the men ' s and women ' s choruses were m erged.

Members of the choir are not expect- ed either to read music or to know gos- pel music well. The singers merely fol- low Williams ' direction, putting emo- tion into their music. Although the group practices before performances, it rehearses mainly to familiarize every- one with the tunes of the songs. Whereas the Gospel Choir uses voices to show emotion and spirit, the Wildcat Pep Band uses instruments — everything from a bass drum to a ka- zoo. The band, under the direction of William Lawing, plays for football and basketball games. Because of its small size and limited budget, the Pep Band cannot travel to away games or com- pete on the level of larger bands. Thus, the group makes up for its shortcom- ings in innovation and verve. Who can forget seeing the band spell DAVID- SON, letter by letter, at halftime, or seeing the unique cadences as the band members marched onto the field? The Pep Band amuses the audiences at the home games by various means — outrageous costumes, funny tunes, un- usual cheers. Most of the performers in the band are proficient, as many of them come from the Jazz and Wind En- sembles. Others, however, join the Pep Band for the fun of participating: what they lack in talent they make up in en- thusiasm. And no one can say the Pep Band is without spirit. — Jim Reese EVOKING SPIRIT IN THE FOOTBALL TEAM, the Pep Band plays the school fight song as play- ers enter the stadium. 96 ORGANIZATION ' S PERFORMING H K n I • Gospel I hi mil ,1 sunn with enthusiasm Gospel Choir Pep Band 97 In hallowed halls Every morning students walk past the two stately buildings on the way to the post office. Few look up to admire the Georgian architecture and fewer still know what goes on inside the old brick walls. To most students, the Phil- anthropic and Eumenean societies are — like Marshall Ney and Old Cham- bers — a thing of the past. But Davidson ' s two literary societies have not fizzled-out completely. On Sunday nights, small groups of stu- dents still meet in the Phi and Eu Halls to discuss and debate topics that inter- est them. Senior Tom Roth, president of the Phi Society, explained that this group has a wide range of interests, from German literature to political science. Each senior in the society takes his turn leading a discussion. Subjects are not always strictly academic. Doug Austin led a discussion about his ex- periences working with a vice squad in Charlotte. In December, the society held a debate on the pros and cons of an isolationist foreign policy. The Phi Society is generally known to be more traditional and formal than most other campus organizations. Members and guests are requested to wear a coat and tie. Each session opens and closes with prayer, Roth explained. Moreover, the meetings are conducted according to strict parlia- mentary procedures. As part of its loyalty to tradition, the Phi Society does not accept women as members. Needless to say, many male and female students are angered by the society ' s controversial position. Roth said that the group is divided on this issue about 50-50, but by the end of 1982-83, the society would not change its stance. We represent the antithesis of the Philanthropic, proclaimed Jeff Demp- sey, unofficial president of the Eumen- ean Society. He describes the Eumen- ean meetings as highly intellectual and highly casual. But, like the Phil- anthropic Society, the Eumenean Soci- e ty enjoys discussing a wide range of subjects. Some discussion topics in- clude Joyce ' s Ulysses, the need to re- turn to classical education, and the new form of logic adopted in quantam mechanics. Dempsey described the discussions as truly esoteric, i.e. they are not the type of subjects handled by Time magazine. Perhaps the Eu Society ' s biggest claim to fame is charades playing. In January, the Eumenean Hall defeated the Philanthropic in their annual match. Since then the Eu Hall has re- peated open challenges to the college community and remained undefeated. The society has maintained its winning streak by choosing such novels as J. P. Donleavy ' s The Beastly Beatitude of Balthanger B, and such songs as Pink Floyd ' s Several Species of Small Furry Animals ... The Eumenean Society is emerging again after several years of dormancy. Dempsey said that the society will con- tinue to attract interested students, but he said he hopes that the society will remain small in number to foster bet- ter, more intimate discussions. — Dick Richards 98 ORGANIZATIONS I III MtlKI IIIKMM WIIKI ■ . i ) ' jiik Austin ' in kim. w INFORMAI Disi i ssio CAPTIVATED HV l)ls I SSION rom Roth and hm Brown look on as a Phi member spe • RELAXATION IS I HI ()KM lencedb} the light-hearted expres- sions of lohn Driggers and Jeff Dempsey Eli and PI Achievers earn praise In addition to Phi and Eu, there are numerous other honorary societies on campus, many of which use the Phi and Eu facilities. Outstanding scholastic achievement is recognized by induction into the Phi Eta Sigma and Phi Beta Kappa societies. Phi Eta Sigma is a national honor soci- ety which recognizes freshmen who at- tain outstanding scholastic averages during their first term at Davidson. Phi Beta Kappa recognizes those students who continue to excel scholastically throughout their college career. Phi Beta Kappa is the highest recog- nition of excellence in scholarship that an undergraduate can achieve in the U.S. During the more than 50 years of its existence at Davidson, Phi Beta Kappa has elected more than 800 stu- dents to membership. This year, 45 more scholars were added to its ranks. Students who maintain a general average of 3.6 or above ordinarily are considered for election into the society by a vote of the faculty members who are Phi Beta Kappa, but election is not automatic on the attainment of a cer- tain grade point average. In accordance with the Constitution of the United Chapters, students elected to member- ship must have qualifications of high scholarship, liberal culture, and good character, and not more than 12.5% of the senior class may be elected. Another active honorary society is Omicron Delta Kappa. This national leadership society recognizes emi- nence in five phases of campus life: scholarship; athletics; social and reli- gious activities; publications; and fo- rensic, dramatics, music and other cul- tural activities. Among other projects of ODK are annual practice interviews held for seniors who are heading for the job market. Individual departments within the College also have honorary fraterni- ties. They include Omicron Delta Epsi- lon (economics), Alpha Epsilon Delta (pre-med), Delta Phi Alpha (German) and Alpha Psi Omega (drama). Also, Gamma Sigma Epsilon (chemistry), Sigma Pi Sigma (physics) and Scabbard and Blade (ROTC). Two honor societies in particular use the facilities in Phi Hall. Stuart Schol- ars and N.C. Fellows both study and meet there on a regular basis.

Stammtisch (or the German lan- guage-speaking club) met on Monday nights in the 900 Room to drink beer and speak German. Composed of ap- proximately 12 members, most of whom were former or future JYA stu- dents or German majors, the group was headed by Dr. Mark McCulloh, Ger- man professor and faculty advisor. At times the group also met for coffee and cake at McCulloh ' s home. The French Club, led by sophomore Jeff Hall, met Tuesday nights and spon- sored French films during fall term and French conversation in the 900 Room during winter and spring terms. Ac- cording to senior Laura Terry, the high- light of the year for the group came in the spring with a French dinner, for which the members brought French dishes. The members of the group in- cluded old and new JYA students and French professors. Several subject area groups exist on campus as well. The Biology Society and the Psychology Club both spon- sored informal gatherings for their members during the year. Pre-med stu- dents met regularly for Pre-Med Collo- quiums, at which topics of interest to students planning to practice medicine were discussed. — Jim Reese Academic Groups 103 AI AND THE WOMEN ' S CONCERNS COMMIT- AT A REGULAR MEETING, AI members look TEE joined forces in the spring to write letters over the latest efforts of the local group, seeking release for female political prisoners. 104 ORGANIZATIONS AI organizes on campus Early In September, a group) of con- cernsd Btudents sat around talking .ihout global issues and their bearing on the small Davidson community This gathering of friends proved to he the Impetus tor the formation of the I lavidson hapter of Amnesty Interna- tional. A I is a worldwide organization whose principal purpose is to guaran- tee human rights for all people. This non-political group strives to protect the rights of prisoners of conscience — people who have been imprisoned not for committing a violent or illegal act, but rather for their political or religious beliefs or even for the color of their skin. Elizabeth Kiss, president and princi- pal organizer of AI on campus, said she saw a ripeness for a group dealing with human rights awareness. Said Kiss, AI is a chance for people to open up to the world. Even if it is just a handful of people, it ' s worth it. Kiss discovered that more than just a handful wanted to open their eyes to what AI had to offer. The group spon- sored many successful events through- out its tirst year at Davidson. In the fall AI brought a South Al theater troupe to campus, addressing the r.n lal prejudice and human rights violations thai Like plat B m South Afri- ca daily. December brought the first annual AI (.hnstiii.e i offeehouse, at which the community joined students for en- tertainment and fund-raising for the family of a Cuban political prisoner. Later in the winter, AI sponsored Hu- man Rights Awareness Week, during which Dr. Lafayette Diggs spoke on Af- rica, and Rona Weitz, Latin American specialist for AI, visited Davidson. In April, Jack Healy, executive direc- tor of AI, U.S.A., spoke on Human Rights in the 80s. The last major event of the year for AI was an impromptu, but rewarding, visit by two exiled Soviet students. The pair spoke to students about oppression in their former home. — Thurston Hatcher PAM STRADER PONDERS HER NEXT THOUGHT in a letterwriting session with AI Amnesty lnt ' 1. 105 Always on call, night or day Almost every day at Davidson, stu- dents grab friends and head down to the gym for a friendly game of basket- ball. Routinely, the players emerge with tired muscles and perhaps a bruise or two. But what if something worse were to happen — what if a stu- dent jumped for a shot and were knocked unconscious? Help would be only minutes away in the form of Davidson students trained as Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs). These students are among those involved in the Davidson Emer- gency Rescue Service (DERS). Alerted by beepers, the EMTs arrive on the scene with the knowledge and equip- ment to handle emergencies until back-up medical help arrives. The DERS is headed by Joint Chiefs Bob Hopkins and Tim Boyer. Other offi- cers include Assistant Chief Robin Scheid and Secretary Hunter Roddey. Hopkins outlined how the DERS oper- ates at Davidson: There are 10 squads with two people each which are on call for a two-to-four-day period every three weeks. At least one of the two squad members is a licensed EMT. In addition there is one officer on call each 24 hours. EMT — Front Row: Tim Bover. Robin Scheid. Hunter Roddev, lit Hooten. Bob Hopkins.

During winter term, Central Pied- mont Community College offers an EMT training course that is taught on the Davidson campus. With a payment of $45 and a committment to attend bi- weekly, three-hour meetings, any stu- dent may sign up. The meetings stress those principles outlined in the EMT manual and include the demonstrative of emergency techniques using manne- quins. In addition, the students observe for 10 hours in the emergency room at Charlotte Memorial Hospital. This op- portunity allows them to witness first- hand the handling of emergencies in the southeast ' s busiest emergency room. Davidson volunteeer firemen are also enrolled in the class in order to provide better emergency service to the residents of Davidson. The firemen and the students are evaluated by the course instructor through a written and a practical test. Those judged com- petent are advised to take the state ex- amination to be licensed as EMTs. After being licensed, the EMTs, in addition to involvement with the DERS, can work on an ambulance or serve in some other occupation utiliz- ing their skills. Many students secure such jobs. Others take the course for a reason such as that of Tim DeSieno, who said, I ' m taking the EMT course because it ' s a good thing to do. You nev- er know when you ' ll be called upon to save someone ' s life. — John Stipp TAKING CARE OF THE PAPERWORK, Stephen Skelton and Sally Hughes log books in and out during the APO Used Book Sale. USHERING IN THE GRADUATES, APO member Claire Eckert serves as a marshal at Spring Convocation. PUTTING HIS EMT TRAINING TO USE, junior Jim Morgan vol unteers his time to the ROTC- Red Cross Blood Drive. If a person decides that he wants to channel some of his energy into community or even national service, he may not know how to go about it. One way is through Alpha Phi Omega (APO), a national service fraternity. APO was founded on the principles of the Boy Scouts of America. At Davidson it is open to all — including women — who are interested in being of service to others. Most students are aware of the APO book sale that is held each term to help students sell their old books and buy cheaper used books This is only one of the services APO provides. Other campus functions include ushering for Spring Convocation and passing out 106 ORGANIZATIONS Mil course registration forms each term. On the community level, APO sponsors a fall solicitation from the community to benefit Easter Seals. This year APO also donated money to the Davidson Community Center to help purchase equipment. On the national level, APO works with the Easter Seals Telethon in Charlotte each spring. It also sponsors the Ugliest Man on Campus contest, with proceeds benefitting the North Carolina Chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. The Davidson Chapter of APO provides fellowship opportunities, ensuring stability in membership through induction ceremonies. Those More than used books interested in joining APO contact the vice-president in charge of membership. They then become pledges and conduct a pledge service project that is completed before they are inducted in the spring. The executive committee is elected at the same time inductions are held. This spring. Sloan Warner became the treasurer; Deepak Sawhney became the vice-president in charge of membership; and Stephen Skelton became the vice-president in charge of service. Beth Gerken succeeded |im Hooten for the presidency. Hooten had been the first Davidson APO president to be elected for two successive terms on the basis of outstanding leadership. As the new president, Gerken expressed her desire to maintain the leadership of Hooten. She said. I want to strenghten the executive committee ' s goal of keeping the local chapter in a period of growth by targeting and expanding freshman participation. — John Stipp fc n APO 107 Y fosters community Y STUDENT SERVICE CORPS — Melissa lones, Norman Gordon.

As Davidson students we all know that academics, although important, can make us lose sight of our priorites and that many of the patterns we set for ourselves here will be continued throughout our lives. The function of the Y Student Service Corps, according to Y President Doug Ammar, is to give students a new perspective and a better understanding of why we are trying to learn by participating in community-related activities. The Yis an amalgamation of groups, each seek- ing to share resources with members of the community and student body. The 1982-83 school year saw the be- ginnings of the rejuvenation for the dif- ferent programs of the Y, as program coordinators worked toward increased campus involvement in order to pro- vide a stronger link with the communi- ty. The various programs of the Y in- cluded weekly meals for CROP and De- pot lunches, working with young peo- ple at the Day Care Center and with the Gethsemane Tutoring Program (known to many as STEP Tutoring), socializing A PICNIC ON THE GREEN.

DCF sparks controversy Religious organizations remained quite visible on campus this year. DCF, for example, was often the center of controversy due to some activities they sponsored. In the spring DCF invited Cliff Knechtle, a Davidson gradua te and founder of DCF, to speak. Knechtle called himself an open-air evangelist and shared his ideas about faith on the green between the Commons and Belk. The subject of evangelism seems to have been the main cause of controver- sy DCF also promoted the Leighton Ford There is Hope Crusade in Char- lotte and, with FCA, co-sponsored a Christian rock concert. The group, called The Grapes, prompted an edi- torial in The Davidsonian, which held that because the concert was held in front of Chambers, a central location, it imposed the religious views of the group on the community. Another religious but less controver- sial organization, the Chapel Commit- tee, invited speakers such as Staley lec- turer Ron Sider to campus, and it orga- nized weekly worship services. This inter-denominational group of stu- dents and Chaplain Charlie Summers also helped coordinate special non-de- nominational services for holidays. A newly organized group, the Catho- lic Campus Ministry, is a tightly knit group composed of Catholics at David- son. There are approximately 150 Catholic students, but their religious needs are often overlooked by the pri- marily Presbyterian administration. CCM, coordinated for the past two years by senior Dave Stosur and co- ordinated this year by sophomore Greg Murphy, planned the liturgy each week. Students were responsible for preparing music for the Mass, teaching catechism classes to the children of Catholic professors, and planning re- treats with Catholic students from oth- er colleges. Overall, the level of student involve- ment in religious organizations has in- creased. A variety of organizations with differing levels of committment is available for the spiritual needs of any student. — Kathy Gratto A MESSAGE FOR THE MASSES: Former David- son student and now evangelist.

Susan MacDonald leads the pack in the kickoff of a flickerball game. Judging by the widespread student participation, IMAC had a successful year. There was no dilution of enthusi- asm, said Steve Soud, IMAC czar, with the wide variety of sports of- fered. At the opening of the flickerball season the Rastros were the top choice, and they did indeed capture the crown, but not without struggle. In the most exciting game of the year, KA Gold pulled a 25-21 upset in front of nearly 100 spectators. The Rastros re- bounded to a 5-1 record including an 88-0 whitewash of the Wild Things, and crushed the SAE Debutwats 32-6 in the finals. In the women ' s league the Filthy Amazons remained number one all season and cruised over the freshman Penthouse Babes in the fin- als. The freshman teams provided some very stiff competition. The Pent- house Babes were a powerhouse as were the Rolling Goobs, Wild Things, and the Nads. The Nads, demolishing the Attitudinal Problems 27-6, were the freshman champions. Before the dust settled on the flick- erball fields, Johnston Gym came alive with IMAC basketball. No lead was ever safe and upsets abounded. I4C14U knocked off the perennially unbeaten Cool Breeze 49-42 in A League, while teams such as Cham- pagne Jam and Boa and the Sexual Morays fought it out in the B League. In the women ' s division Warner Hall played at a steady tempo all season and defeated the Penthouse Babes 27- 12 in the finals. Fido and the Rear En- tries squeaked past Embassy 48-47 to win the A League crown, while Sweetness slipped by Champagne Jam 42-32 in the B League. With spring in the air IMAC offered a wide variety of sports: softball, kick- ball, swimming, and even a racketball tournament. Volleyball was the more popular sport with Net Result, the fac- ulty team, aiming for the champion- ship for an unprecedented three years in a row. Jerry ' s Kids, an independent softball team, won the title with a 6-0 record. During the year, many athletes dis- played their athletic prowess. Profes- sors Peter Krentz and Tom Kazee were awesome players from the facul- ty. They excelled particularly in vol- leyball. SAE once again was the domi- nant fraternity all year; Gary Mc- Donald ' 83 and Tom Walker ' 84 were recognized as two of the best all- around athletes in IMAC, and pro athletes such as Cliff Tribus and Ken- ny Wilson made good showings in vol- leyball.

Soud, a native of Aberdeen, Md., is president of IMAC (Intramural Athletic Council) and has brought us sports such as the fast-paced flickerball, basketball, and volleyball. Majoring in English, Soud hopes for a career in sports writing and believes that his work with IMAC and the Davidson- ian will provide a good background. Soud covers most Davidson games; his column From the Locker Room makes a weekly appearance in The Davidson- ian. When asked about particular sports, the Czar said he is an avid spectator of the entire Davidson sports program. My favorites are college basketball and pro baseball, he said. Soud began his reign as IMAC Czar last year when he succeeded John Butler; he plans to hold the position until he graduates. Working for IMAC is an everyday job, said Soud. Aside from having the daily demands of the job, managing his own team, Apocalypse Now, and being a referee, Soud has also redone the scheduling process and rewritten the flickerball rules. Why would anyone subject himself to such pressure and re- sponsibility? I love it, said Soud. It ' s a great way to meet people, and I feel I am accom- plishing something. If I come back in 10 years, I ' d like to see IMAC operating just as I left it or perhaps even better. Just how does one accomplish this? Like any other monarch, he plans to se- lect an heir to the IMAC throne and will train him in the duties of the office. (Soud mentioned no names but admitted he has a few candidates in mind.) Soud is also quick to point out that he is not solely responsible for the success of IMAC. L aura Moore, Sterling Martin, and Coach Brown (Director of Intramurals) have all been invaluable, he said. —Ian Dunn HELPING OUT on the Penthouse Babes ' volley- ball team. IMAC Czar Steve Soud participated on IMAC teams all year. HARD AT WORK, Czar Soud never rests in his monumental task of running the Davidson IMAC program. IF LOOKS COULD KILL, Ross Thayer would lead her flickerball team at Warner Hall, part of the IMAC program, to many victories. 116 ATHLETICS MOKE P08THR8I M M i m Bteve Baud kai certain thai Davidson itudanti keep up with .ill mir.iinur.il avMita l poetine, a hedulai and re- volts feature.- The reign of Czar Soud 1MAC Feature 117 What happens when an athletic student does not have the time to join a varsity team and cannot find an ideal intramural sport? He can choose from several club sports that provide an informal recrea- tional outlet and a chance to com- pete against neighboring colleges. These teams are organized by students with the help of the Sports Club Council. Each team plans its budget, chooses managers and schedules games and practices. This year the seven major club sports organized were men ' s ten- nis, men ' s rugby, women ' s soccer, men ' s lacrosse, women ' s lacrosse, women ' s volleyball and men ' s foot- ball. Richard Davis captained the men ' s club tennis team. Approxi- mately 10 students played and oc- casionally Coach Jeff Frank helped the team. The team ' s 15 matches in- cluded schools such as Clemson, Wake Forest and Duke. The men ' s rugby team played both in the fall and spring. The team captain was Jim Brueggeman and the team played Wake Forest, Belmont Abbey and N.C. State. Ap- proximately 30 students participat- ed. Sarah Dysart was captain of the 25-member women ' s club soccer team. The team played Queens, N.C. State and the Charlotte wom- en ' s team. The 25-member men ' s lacrosse team, led by Jay Norman, played the Citadel, the University of Ten- nessee-Chattanooga and the Char- lotte Lacrosse team. In addition they held a scrimmage with the women ' s lacrosse team, which had twenty-eight women members. The team, led by Anne Hockett, competed against U.N.C., Duke and Guilford. Mary Legerton was captain of the women ' s volleyball team coached by Dr. Louis Ortmayer. Fif- teen women participated, and the team played Queens, Salem and neighboring high schools. In the fall, the men ' s club foot- ball team was led by John McColl with 34 players. The team played 10 games against Clemson, U.N.C., N.C. State and Lincolnton.

Although they compiled a disap- pointing 3-7 record, the Wildcats did finish their season on a winning note, with a 13-12 victory over Ca- tawba. That final game was the team ' s only win on the road. Victories over Georgetown (Ky.) and Guilford in the first half of the season were the highlights of the home schedule, which included six games at Richardson Field. Reflecting on the season, Head Coach Ed Farrell attributed the los- ing record to a difficult schedule and a lack of improvement from game to game. We just didn ' t get better, he said. Early in the season we had a chance to beat some of the teams we played, but in other games we were just overmatched. Alongside a disappointing sea- son usually comes morale prob- lems among players, but Farrell said this year was different. He pointed out that of the 90 players who were on the team when the year began, 88 of them finished the season. This is the best year we ' ve ever had for players not dropping out, he said. We just didn ' t have many attitude problems. Senior Leonard Walker, tri-cap- tain of the team with seniors Jeff Kane and Robbie Thornsberry, echoed Farrell ' s sentiment: I felt that this team had a good chance to be 8-2, he said. We got beaten by people who shouldn ' t have beaten us. I was disappointed as a team member — which is most impor- tant — but I felt I did give the best I could. Walker finished the season as the team ' s leading rusher, with 671 yards and a 4.5 average per carry. Farrell is optimistic about next year, noting that this year ' s fresh- man class is the most talented I ' ve had in my nine years here. He said there are 30 freshmen from the 1982 team expected to return in 1983. — Jim Reese 120 ATHLETICS PI )OTBAl.l. 3-7-0 Davidson Wofford 54 D.ividson 33 Georgt ' tnw ii 21 Davidson 7 Nevvhn rj 8 Davidson 7 ).

One for the road You ' ve heard of trial by water and trial by fire, but have you heard about tri- al by syrup and dry jello mix? Field hockey tri-captains Cathy Mor- ell, Amy Crittenberger and Carol Heppner remember their initiation to the team their freshman year. The upper- class players blindfolded and tied up the initiates, poured syrup and dry jello mix all over them and left them in Har- dee ' s parking lot with only a quarter for a phone call. On that night, the teammates survived the experience, passed the test and began some very deep friendships. Circumstances brought the three friends together. Crittenberger and Mor- ell were on the same freshman hall but it was through field hockey that the rela- tionships really grew. The four freshmen on the team were somewhat segregated from the upperclass players. On road trips they were forced to room together. During the year, an onslaught of pranks by the older players necessitated the for- mation of an alliance to seek revenge. The alliance is still strong. All three friends have played field hockey togeth- er since freshman year. During sopho- more and junior years they also played together on the basketball team. Said Heppner, That ' s a lot of time to spend together, practicing, playing games and going on trips — doing that for two sea- sons. This year the tri-captains have spent even more time together; they share off- campus housing in Park Place West on Concord Road. They had always wanted to live in the same dorm, but sophomore year poor lottery numbers prevented them, and junior year Crittenberger was a hall counselor. Their friendship has steadily increased each year and living in Park Place has given the teammates more of a chance to socialize together. Although the three friends have dis- cussed the possibility of sharing an apartment after graduation, they have not made any definite plans. Whatever happens, said Heppner, we will stay in touch; if we didn ' t, it would be like losing family. — Kathy Gratto - - THE DOMESTIC LIFE: Amy Crittenberger, a for- mer hall counselor, turns her talents toward baking for a hall reunion.

The 7-9 season, however, does not reflect the quality of the play- ers, for the team this year played a tougher schedule due to a division switch. The team now belongs to the NAIA and plays against teams allowing partial scholarships. According to both the players and Mayes, the seniors were the core of the team; the four seniors were Mebane Atwood, playing the position of sweep, and tri-captains Cathy Morell, Carol Heppner, and Amy Crittenberger. Amy Crittenberger is the best player ever to go through David- son, Mayes said. As center half- back, Crittenberger made nine goals to become the team ' s leading scorer. The seniors helped to pro- mote spirit among the team. Everyone gave 1007c, sopho- more Kara Gilmore said. The team came back to school a week early for conditioning. Morell described the early morning workouts as the pits. The players attributed their closeness as a team to this week spent together in summer practice. Traveling to away games also built team unity. In the van, they played Botticelli and Ghost, but their favorite game was Cha- rades. The team also socialized to- gether; they had parties, a yearly cookout, and a banquet. Junior Katie Dagenhart credited the success of the season in part to Mayes; Coach Mayes made being on the team really special.

With the coaching of Charles Sla- gle, though, the ' Cats did have their bright moments. They obliterated Appalachian State University 4-0, tied the powerful Florida Interna- tional 1-1, and won the Charlotte Tournament. For the first time in Davidson history, too, the team was ranked in the South, reaching as high as ninth in the polls. Two critical losses in the confer- ence to VMI and Marshall cost the ' Cats the title. They finished second to ASU. After a few freak shots and poor playing conditions, Coach Slagle watched any post-season hopes sink away. Despite the losses, however, the team held together and played with what freshman Wallis Goodman termed a cohe- sive team effort. Captains Chris Roberts, Bill Wahl and Todd Lambert provided leadership on the field, and the ' Cats finished the season with one of their best records in past years. Although the team did not re- ceive any post-season action, four players were recognized for indi- vidual excellence. Chris Roberts and Bill Wahl made the first team All-Southern Conference; Pat Woodward made the second team All-Southern Conference; and Bri- an Hamilton received honorable mention. What are the prospects for next year? Goodman said the team is op- timistic about its chances because the soccer program is on the up- swing and many players will be re- turning for future action. — Ian Dunn 1 126 ATHLETICS CELEBRATION!

No, it ' s not the creature from the lake campus lagoon. No, it ' s not a tribe of ravenous junkfood junkies. Give up? It ' s the men ' s and women ' s cross country teams on a road trip. Six out of seven men ' s meets and five out of six women ' s meets were held away this year. Sterling Martin coached both teams, and, since their schedules usually coincided, the seven women and seven men composing the traveling teams piled into two vans nearly every weekend fall term. You learn a lot about a person on an overnight trip. The eating habits of var- ious team members are rather distinc- tive. Frank Ivey swears he runs his best races when he drinks V-8 juice the night before, but Marian Hill will drink Tab on the morning of the race. Sarah Patterson enjoys Spoon-Sized Shredded Wheat right out of the box. Jackie Desai simpli- fies any meal decision-making by eating everyone else ' s leftovers. The sleeping accommodations on trips were often less than luxurious, according to the men ' s team captain, senior Jack Smith. We stayed in ' Sterling Martin Special Cheap Motels ' — the Thunderbird or the Azalea, he said. The funny thing is see- ing two men trying to share a tiny bed. Also, the vibrators in some beds make for great fun. According to Smith, the women ' s team had a simple solution to the lack of com- fort in motels: They bring enough (lug- gage) to start a new home. But Bugs Bunny cartoons make early Saturday morning in any motel bearable. What happens after the excitement of spending the night in new surroundings fades? What happens after the roar of the crowds, after the thrill of victory or the agony of defeat? Cross country members, never fear, have found unique ways to amuse themselves on the van ride back to Davidson. One van was usually re- served for those dedicated students who refused to allow road trips to interfere with academics. The other van, earning the title of The Funk Van, was populat- ed by those cross country members look- ing for an outlet from tension. Riders of the funk van were tr eated to Jack Smith ' s and Frank Ivey ' s series of tapes entitled, The Funk Collection, in- cluding such artists as The Gap Band, Rick James, ZAPP, and the S.O.S. Band. Ivey and Smith insisted the music re- laxed them; consequently, they run bet- ter. On the road trip, sophomore Greg Murphy passed the time by writing songs about the team.

Ivey and eight members of the women ' s team traveled to Ke- nosha for the NAIA National Cross Country Championship meet on Nov. 20, the first time the Davidson women ' s team has qualified for Nationals. They qualified for the NAIA meet after beating St. Augustine and Campbell in the District 26 Championship meet on Oct. 9 in Pembroke, N.C. During the meet, Jean Webb clocked a 19:01 time to set the three-mile course record. The women ' s team placed 15th overall. Ivey also qualified for Nationals during the district meet by finishing second. In Wisconsin he posted a 26:59 in the 8,000-meter run, finish- ing 139th out of 321 runners. Ivey and the women ' s team were satisfied with their efforts, but their times were not as competitive as they had hoped. They were tired, they said, from having to rush through exams to make the meet, which was scheduled during exam week. Nationals was the highlight, but the entire season was encouraging for the women ' s team. They fin- ished the season 5-2, placed first in the District Championship, placed fourth in the state meet, and third in the Georgia State University In- vitational. The men ' s team finished with a 3-9 record; they were plagued early in the season with injuries. Senior standout Dave Stosur was laid-up most of the season with a hurt leg. Team captain Jack Smith sa id, The season doesn ' t look good on paper, but it was very promising for the future. Of the nine members who competed in the Southern Conference Championship, Smith was the only senior. The men ' s team took third place in the District Championship, 10th in the state meet, fifth in the Geor- gia State Invitational, and eighth in the Southern Conference Champi- onship. — Kathy Gratto 230 ATHLETICS WOMEN ' S CROSS COUNTRY - Front Row: Coach Sterling Martin, Merris Hollingsuorth.

The season tip-off, the Crush Classic tournament at DePaul, foreshadowed the rest of the season. In the opener the hosts plastered the Wildcats 79-39, but the ' Cats bounced back to upset a powerful Texas Tech team 51-50. Such topsy-turvy action was par for the remainder of the sea- son. Davidson, however, won its su- preme moment of glory when it stunned Notre Dame 54-51 in over- time on |an. 16. Televised on cable channel ESPN with 5700 people in the Coliseum, the pesky Wildcats, led by Kenny Wilson (17 points), Cliff Tribus (14 points), and John Carroll [14 points), hounded the Irish and put the game into overtime by forcing Ail- American John Paxson to miss a last- second shot. With :04 left in the over- time (Davidson ahead 52-51) Paxson, who had been shut down most of the night by a Richard Wilson-spearhead- ed defense, missed a last-ditch shot, and the ball went out of bounds off Notre Dame. As Davidson inbounded, Brian Rowan was fouled with :03 re- maining and sent to the line for the one-and-one. As the crowd ringed the court, Rowan, the steady senior, sank both free throws to seal the win. When the buzzer sounded, throngs of fans flocked on court and swarmed the vic- tors of one of Davidson ' s greatest wins. One week later, though, the team ' s fortunes soured when a weak A| i hi, in si.it.- i.Mtn knocked off the Wildcats 60-68 in OT, on the same Notre Dame win. The loss became the turning point of the sea- son as the Wildcats could nevei seem to muster a comeback. The ' Cats ap- peared to be on the verge of a come- back late in the season when they hosted nationally-ranked I IT-Chat- tanooga in Johnston Gym. It was the seniors ' last home game, and people jammed the gym [2100] to watch Skip Brown score eight of the first 12 points to thunderous acclaim. In one of the most exciting games all year, Mocca- sin Skip Clark nailed a last-second three-pointer to give the visitors a 73- 71 win. Two nights later in the Coliseum the ' Cats bounced back before a crowd of 5600 to thrash UNCC 82-73, for the Hornet ' s Nest Trophy. Kenny Wilson led all scorers with 28 points, and it was his back-to-back dunks with sev- en minutes left that broke the game open. Davidson transfer John Gullick- son, playing at UNCC, played poorly (3 for 11, 11 points) in the face of taunts and the red hand. (Gullickson was suspended from Davidson on an hon- or-code violation two years ago.) Davidson ended the season quietly with a first-round loss to Western Carolina in the Southern Conference tournament in Charleston, W. Va. When all was over, Kenny Wilson (17.4 points per game) made first team All-Conference and Cliff Tribus (14.4 points per game) was named to the second team. — Steve Soud KENNY WILSON STEPS ON BY some heavy op- position on his way to another field goal.

WITH A FLIP OF THE WRIST, Cliff Tribus sends the ball well beyond the outstretched hand of his opponent. Cliff Tribus, a senior from Essex Falls, N.J., is living proof that one can be outstanding at athletics and academics simultaneously. When he was not dis- playing all-star form on the basketball court, Tribus maintained a high GPA en route to a pre-med major. Tribus has played basketball since the fourth grade. I was always tall enough to play, he said. He also enjoys tennis, track and skiing. He played basketball at West Essex High School and gained a reputation as a pre-eminent player. He set the school ' s single-season scoring re- cord and was an Honorable Mention Ail-American. By his senior year Tribus was being heavily recruited by several colleges. I narrowed it down pretty quickly to either Davidson, Harvard, Yale or Holy Cross, he said. Davidson offered a good combination of athletics and a good pre-med program. At first Tribus had trouble breaking into the starting line-up but by the end of his sophomore year he was finally mak- ing his presence known. Since then Tri- bus has become a leader on the court, an excellent shooter, and the key man in close games. At 6 ' 10 he is an intimidat- ing force and has been recognized around the Southern Conference as a su- perior player. Off the court Tribus is well-known for his academic prowess. A pre-med major, he has maintained a 3.67 GPA and is set for graduate work at Johns Hopkins Uni- versity. In 1982 Tribus was named to the Academic Ail-American third team. I like to maintain a good balance be- tween athletics and academics, he claimed. I won ' t do one at the expense of the other. Graduate school would be postponed, though, if a future in pro basketball opens up. Right now pro basketball is in the back of my mind, he said. I ' ll have to see what turns up in post-season All- Star games. Though his playing days at Davidson are now over, Tribus vowed that he will always keep track of the Wildcats. He said he sees a lot of potential in future years and expects the program to settle down under the leadership of Coach Hussey. — Ian Dunn 134 ATHLETICS MIKK FRANKHOUSKK MMSHtKIKI H sKI I with tha same determination thai earned hei per- tonal rei riK and l -« i in if. mi vii loriaa I HI I1KII l) SMI1 1 S (II MIKI I K K HOUSER, |aanna Mfomack and ( larol I loopaa Indi- cate thai friend are ever) bil u Important .is the baakelball i ourl M 01 i l sum Mike up hi .in .ii 1 1 I.-, I ■ I Aim I. .-nil. ml She bakes fantas- in brownies l lebbie i [ayes i ommented Slu- i.s ,i multi-dimensional pei Anil sin- also happens In In- urn- nl the lies! women ' a beaketbell playera in grace the Da- vidson ( lollege ' mil ' a Mitioi from Sj Ivanla, I ;.i . she holds the si liniil rei ords foi sinyle (iiinir. season, and career |i:tlin points) scor- ing, as Well as season and i ..neei i flu wnding rei onls When asked about awards and hei re l-brealdng performancea, Frankhouaei Bdmitted, 1 don ' l even know about all the i.i ils. in tell you the truth.

But she hastened to add, I would never trade basketball — the exper- iences that I ' ve had, the incredible teamwork. There ' s nothing like it! Next year Frankhouser will teach English and coach junior varsity girl ' s basketball at Woodward Academy in Atlanta — the archri- val of her former high school, Westminster School. Modesty describes Mike Frankhouser. So does caring. But neither words, nor scoring percentages, nor yearbook articles can cap- ture her. According to Debbie Hayes, to un- derstand and appreciate her, one must know her. —Melissa Jones feature.- Heads above the rest Team looks to seniors Some basketball coaches would claim that an 8-12 overall record reflects a mediocre year. However, Dee Mayes, head coach of women ' s basketball, believes this is the best year Davidson has had in her three-year coaching career. Although the women ' s team struggled during its first year in the NAIA with an 0-8 conference re- cord, the group played some out- standing games and had superb in- dividual performances. Most nota- ble is Mike Frankhouser, who became the leading rebounder and receiver in the history of women ' s basketball at Davidson. She scored over 1000 points in her basketball career. We needed Mike to play well, said Mayes. The other seniors played well, but we looked to Mike to move. Frankhouser attributed her accomplishments to her fel- low senior players: The seniors this year deserve recognition. The team loses seven seniors this year, five of whom played together for four years. Although rebuilding will be difficult, Mayes is optimis- tic: Sure, there is a lot of space to fill, but we have had a fairly good recruiting year. We hope to do bet- ter in the conference and get into the playoffs. M ' ayes said she realizes that more money in the entire athletic program as well as scholarships could make sports in general more competitive at Davidson. She, how- ever, sees improvement in women ' s athletics because more money is being allocated to all areas and bet- ter athletes are attending Davidson. There is a future here for women ' s athletics, she said. Unity characterizes this year ' s team. After losing three players at the beginning of the year, the re- maining members pulled together and worked hard. Frankhouser ex- plained: Losing the players made the other team members realize they needed to work as a team in- stead of as individuals. This was one of the most cohesive teams we ' ve had. It brought out the best in the people that remained. — Murray Simpson DEDICATION! Carol Heppner. injured knee and all. takes her place with the Lady ' Cats. BASKETBALL — Front Row: Debbie Hayes.

At his own expense, Davidson graduate and certified pilot Frank Rader Hew llissatn and Tiernan to the NAIA nationals al Mlnot State in North Dakota. Wrestling at the national level with some of the best wrestlers in the country is a nice way to finish a season, said Tier- nan. I ' m grateful to have had the chance to compete. The team had a rewarding year despite its inexperience. In addi- tion to sending individuals to na- tionals the season was highlighted by a two-point victory over archri- val Elon. Arduini said the season was a success: The guys worked hard, and although they were not satisfied, we have been compete- tive and we ' re improving. With most of the team returning and the promise of football players filling the upper weight classes, hopes are high for next year. The overall record of 7-8 for this sea- son is not reflective of team talent. Due to a lack of wrestlers in the upper weights, the Wildcat Ten was forced to forfeit the 190 lb. and heavyweight matches at each meet, a total of 12 points forfeited. While co-captains Tiernan and John Breidenstine ' 84 provided leadership this year, Breidenstine and Hissam will provide valuable experience next year. Both juniors have outstanding individual re- cords, placing third and fourth re- spectively at the Southern Confer- ence tournament. Sophomores Oddo, Bob McCullen and Mike Keeley also proved valuable. Kee- ley began the season with a strong record of 8-4 but was hindered by a knee injury. Freshmen Jim Labrec, Tom Cardwell and Clay Carroll all should be strong contenders next year. Arduini summed up the season by saying, I enjoyed this year and I ' m proud of the team.

Far- ther and farther you slide the marker while the needle remains stubbornly at the top of the gap that indicates too much or too little weight. Great, you ' re five pounds over wrestling class weight, and you have a match tomor- row. What are you going to do? Overweight wrestlers are not flabby, roly-poly people. They are overweight in the sense that they weigh more than the minimum weight at which they can wrestle legally. A wrestler ' s weight loss can be divided into two levels: the initial large pre-season drop to the vicinity of wrestling class weight, and the repeated drops to wrestling class weight from small weekly gains. The first phase involves losing as much as 25 pounds. According to John Breidenstine, a junior wrestler who lost 27 pounds between pre-season training and the beginning of the season, the wrestler ' s diet relies on common sense. You eat a lot of salads, all low-calo- rie stuff, he said. I also chewed a lot of gum. During this time, wrestlers perhaps en- dure the most mental stress. Said Tommy Cardwell, a freshman wrestler: This is one of the most depressing times, be- cause you aren ' t wrestling. Once you get into the matches, you ' re more willing not to eat. The second phase of weight loss con- sists of dropping four to five pounds within a few days to reach the weight class maximum weight. Breidenstine ex- plained: When you ' re trying to drop for a match, calories really don ' t matter; it ' s ounces. You restrict your intake in terms of ounces. The last four to five pounds are really water weight anyway. In order to ensure that those last four to five pounds will be water weight, wrestlers satisfy their hunger with sub- stitutes. Breidenstine chews gum; Card- well eats granola bars (.8 ounces, he quickly asserted); sophomore Tom Oddo chews tobacco. How does one lose the last four to five pounds of water weight? Oddo said, You wear plastics (plastic warm-up suits), parkas or sweats — and go run around the pool, or jump rope. With about 40 to 50 minutes of workout, you can lose it. The clothing, especially the plastics, increases perspiration. After this extreme water loss, the wrestler is not extremely healthy; thus, collegiate wrestling allows a five hour period between weigh-in time and match time. During this period, the wres- tlers not only eat pancakes, eggs, and ba- con, they drink profusely to replenish lost body fluids. The constant hunger resulting from maintaining minimum weight raises a question in non-wrestler ' s minds — why? Well, I guess it ' s because of a love for the sport, said Cardwell. Also, be- cause you can get real, real tight with the other guys on the team by going through the same thing. Breidenstine stressed that wrestling provides a true test: It ' s a challenge. You know that you can be more competitive at a lower weight. Ac- tually, it ' s not that bad; you really don ' t need the extra weight — all that fat. All during the season, you aren ' t comfort- able, but when the season ' s over, you ' re glad you did it. —Rob Vaughn Wrestling Feature 141 School spirit soars Spirit. That oft-repeated word denoting what those of us at a rigorous aca- demic institution have no time to ponder, much less exude. Spirit. That ' s what cheerleaders try to force upon us in high school; but, at college we of course pursue more esoteric pleasures. Spirit. That feeling of days gone by when Davidson was a powerhouse in basketball and at times even had a respectable reputation in football. We just can ' t be bothered with spir- it. The cheerleaders tried to push spirit on us late in November with a pre-basketball season pep rally in the gym. Their efforts paid off, for, lo and behold, that spirit crept back onto campus and spread among students like the flu epidemic of 1981. Most notable among achieve- ments in spirit came during the men ' s basketball season with the Davidson-Notre Dame game on Jan. 4. Fans young and old hear- kened back to the old days, as Davidson had its best win in years. The soccer team had an active fan club during its fall season, en route to attaining a regional rank- ing and phenomenal wins. Mike Frankhouser ' s record-setting per- formances in women ' s basketball attracted large crowds to Johnston Gym. Spirit spilled over into spring term, as Davidson hosted important athletic events such as the David- son Relays in track and the South- ern Conference tournament in men ' s tennis. Davidson did well in sending athletes to post-season tourna- ments. For example, the entire women ' s cross country team and Frank Ivey of the men ' s cross coun- try team wrestlers Chris Tiernan, Tom Hissam and Tom Oddo, tennis player Catherine Smith, and track team members Sarah Patterson and Jeff Carter all qualified for na- tionals in their sports. No, spirit is not dead at David- son. It ' s alive and thrashing during all three sports seasons of the year. — Jim Reese NOT EVEN THE COLDEST OF DAYS can dampen the spirit of soccer spectators Laura Raney, Shelley Boulware and |ill Sypult.

Scott Weaver looks I ball Freshman talent shines on diamond Baseball Coach George Greer believes that his team is in the pro- cess of a turnaround. Losing four seniors from this year ' s team, Greer is optimistic after recruiting 10 high school sen- iors for next year. According to Greer, the team scored more runs and RBIs over last year, betters struck out fewer times, and the players were more versatile. Although posting a disap- pointing 11-24 record, the team fared well against three of the strongest teams in the nation — the Citadel, (the University of) South Carolina and (the University of] North Carolina, Greer said. Freshmen held six positions on the team. Freshmen started to show leadership toward the end of the season, Greer said. John Ma- honey ' 86 received the Most Valu- able Player Award; Scott Weaver ' 86 was named Rookie of the Year. Junior Jeff McSwain was given the Hustler Award by his teammates. It ' s harder for us to compete in the South, Greer said, because most of the Division I teams offer money. In the Southern Confer- ence the baseball team finished with a 3-11 record and seventh in the conference, up from eighth in the conference last year. — Jim Reese Baseball 145 Yankees dominated the faction of freshman baseball players this year. Of the six, five were northerners. Coach George Greer is responsible for recruiting in northern high schools. A former coach at the University of Con- necticut, he came to know the high schools in the region with good baseball programs. He has been at Davidson since the latter part of the 1981-82 school year. I do emphasize getting northern kids down here, he said. The school likes for its students to have different back- grounds and to come from diverse re- gions. Greer said the northern players like to play in a warm climate, a factor that helps to make up for athletic scholar- ships Davidson cannot offer. Coming off a successful recruiting sea- son, Greer has drawn several incoming freshmen from Massachusetts, Con- necticut and other northern states. One of last year ' s top recruits, fresh- man Scott Weaver, is a transplanted Pennsylvanian and has been playing baseball since age eight. It ' s been interesting learning about the South and its strange quirks, Weaver said about his first year of college. He was the starting pitcher for the baseball team this year, and was known to many in the freshman class for his out- going personality. Although he said he was disappointed with the final 11-24 season record, Weaver found playing baseball at David- son educational. I like baseball — it ' s fun, he said. It ' s relaxing and not too strenuous. And for those who know Weaver, they know that the sport, then, blends well with his easygoing spirit. The recruiting of northerners such as Weaver will continue while Greer is coaching at Davidson. I hope we ' ll still have walk-ons, even though we recruit, he said. Of course, my door is always open to anyone who wants to play — Christi Baggett and Jim Reese BATTER UP! Freshman and Pennsylvanian Scott Weaver readies for the pitch.

Junior Gary Schenk held the number one position, with sopho- more Todd Wiebusch playing number two. Seniors Tom Haller and Bob Whalen served as co-cap- tains. With a roster of 10 players, Cart- mill said that the team had its largest number of participants, and that their dedication was far better than in years past. Talentwise we had capabili- ties, he said, but we ' d have sev- eral bad holes to throw us out of team competition. Golf extends through the fall and spring seasons. The team practices and plays home matches at the Charlotte Country Club or at the Mallard Head golf course north of Davidson. Next year, however, a three-hole practice course will be completed on campus. The course will be adja- cent to the baseball diamond. Our program is on its way to being respectable, Cartmill said. Before grant-in-aids, Davidson was a kingpin in golf. Now schools are buying golfers. We just try to improve our kids. — Jim Reese Golf hits respectability 148 ATHLETICS •nv. maM: D.O.A.

The operating budget was also meager this year. Some new equipment was bought, but not enough money was available to upgrade the shooting range ' s safe- tv standards. The college might not supply a budget at all next year, according to ROTC advisor. MA|. David Hill. In that case, said Hill, we ' ll have to cancel the whole team, or otherwise look for a private spon- sor. In spite of these problems, some success was scored: senior Doug Austin ranked among the top 10 shooters in the Western Carolina Rifle Conference at VVofford Col- lege. But this was an individual accomplishment, for there were not enough shooters available to form a team. The team had only three mem- bers and four are necessary to compete in matches and a team has to play in eight matches to qualify for the Southern Confer- ence. Obviously this goal was im- possible; thus the members had no reason to practice anymore and they gave up. Although prospects for the fu- ture seem bleak, Major Hill said, the team has several promising shooters who plan to return next year. If we can find a more conve- nient practice facility, we can build up. not a champion ' s, but at least a competitive team in two years. Said Doug Austin: Unless the college is willing to rebuild the range, there is no way that a com- petitive team gets started. And ac- tually, it is one of the cheapest sports, even though you have to practice every day; and men and women can participate in it equal- ly. It looks like the team ' s bad re- sults came from a lack of coopera- tion from the college ' s side. We really did all we could, said Aus- tin, but there was just no motiva- tion to participate in matches. The college seemed almost happy to see the team fall apart. — Michael Leezenberg NOT ALL WORK AND NO PLAY, sailing seems to be an ideal way to relax for Phillip Dennis.

With Eric Sanner at the helm as captain, the team is organized and run by its members. As the team ' s advisor, Dr. Hallam Walker pro- vides assistance and guidance. Davidson is a member of the South Atlantic Intercollegiate Sail- ing Association, which is composed of 16 teams from Georgia to Virgin- ia. The competition is fierce, in- cluding two teams regularly ranked in the top 10 in the nation: Old Do- minion and the College of Charles- ton. Although neither the fall nor the spring season was outstanding, there were several strong individ- ual performances. Among these were excellent finishes by Sanner, Will Berson and Muffin Alford. Overall, Davidson finished seventh in the conference for the spring season. Ten sailors qualified for varsity letters, and of these, five will be graduating. —Kathleen Huff Come sail away 150 Athletics Sailing 151 During the first week of their David- son Experience. freshmen are in- troduced to the green waters of Lake Norman. Just like the postcards, right? Well, with 300 freshmen and 25 home- spun rafts blocking all available space and kicking up mud, the warm water is anything but appealing. After Orienta- tion, however, Lake Norman can be the place to kick your shoes off and be mel- low, or the place to frolic with friends. Whether playing volleyball, throw- ing a frisbee, paddling a canoe or sail- ing, fun can be found at the lake camp- us. A nice grassy peninsula and a small stretch of sand provide a haven for spring term sunbathers, sailors and skiiers. The track team celebrates vic- tories in lake campus cookouts. DCFers see God in nature at their sunset lake campus meetings. And nothing quite surprasses the thrill of moonlight skin- nydipping — despite a quarter-mile walk from the locked gate. This spring Davidson students began to haunt another stretch of land along the shores of Lake Norman — the North Carolina Water Ski School. Here, for a mere $3, skiing enthusiasts were able to ski to their heart ' s content. The school provides ramps and slalom courses for experts, and wetsuits are available if it is necessary to ward off the lingering chill of winter. Primarily Lake Norman is a place to get away from the claustrophobic aca- demia of school. Books are often pre- sent, but rarely opened.

In addition to being proud of the team ' s ability to work together, she noted that they did an excellent job adjusting to me. Breaking school records was the focus of many runners, and a great many achieved their goals, includ- ing Frank Ivey, who ran a 1:56 800 meters; Jean Webb, who also ran a record-breaking 800 meters; and Sharon Bryant, who ran her fastest 220 ever. Harris, however, has a strong opinion on individual goals: Track is individualized up to the point where everyone has to get points so the team can win. Team members elaborated on this, stressing the ad- vantages of pulling together and making this unity the major goal for the season. When problems began to develop — from captain Dave Stosur getting appendicitis and be- ing unable to compete, to rainy- weather making practice more dif- ficult than ever — the team fol- lowed Harris ' advice and geared it- self toward being more aware of the team as a whole and helping each other toward goals. Apparently the philosophy worked; three team members qualified for the NAIA national meet. High jumper Jeff Carter com- pleted a seven-foot jump in the last meet of the year to qualify. Jean Webb qualified in the heptathalon, and part-time team members Sarah Patterson ran a 35:39 10,000 meter race in the Davidson Relays to qualify with a margin of more than four minutes. Although the rest of the team didn ' t have such noted success, the season was far from unfulfilling. In fact, it was the team unity that brought the satisfaction. As fresh- man Frank Hague put it, Team unity extended beyond just making a lot of noise at meets. It ' s pulling for each other every day. —Janice Evans l W ■ ■ GOING, GOING. GONE!

Ac- cording to cheerleading advisor Laura Moore, the positions are vo- luntary; all it takes is school spirit and the need to make people smile and laugh. The Kitten ' s job is primarily to play with the children, said Moore, because they ' re scared of the large head the cat wears. The cat is mostly for the students. Kinnett, the Kitten during the football season, said, Every person who is the Kitten gives her a differ- ent personality. I made her more childish and fun. It ' s great to see kids ' eyes glow when they see the Wildcat or Kitten. The identity of the mascots is usually kept a secret during the sea- son, explained Kinnett, because it gives the person behind the cos- tume more freedom to become the Wildcat or the Kitten in much the same way an actor portrays a role. Portraying the Wildcat or Kitten takes a little practice. While the mascots did not practice with the cheerleaders, they did practice in front of mirrors to improve their gestures and to see how their cos- tumes — especially the plaster head — looked. Since the Wildcat or Kitten can ' t talk, mime is impor- tant. The cat must practice moving his head from side to side so that he appears to have facial expressions. Besides representing school spir- it and good will, the mascots use their anonymity as cats and kittens to embarrass their friends at games. They reveal their identity only through grins reminiscent of Alice ' s Cheshire cat. — Kathv Gratto AS MOM LOOKS ON, this youngster nestles a bit anxiously in the arms of the irrepressible Cat.

Pianist and Adven- tures in Good Music host Karl Haas held a recital after convocation. The concert was preceded on Mon- day evening by a talk by Haas on the Bach selections to be perlormed. Prin- cipal and hosting patrons for the con- ceit attended a pre-concert buffet and a post-concert reception and dinner at the Commons. Another reception for all concert-goers was held in Chambers Gallery. Tickets for the event sold for $500. $250 and $100. Students were offered tickets at a reduced rate, made possible by the contribution of a matching do- nor. Robinson, the principal oboist for the New York Philharmonic, takes credit as the architect of the gala. As an English majorat Davidson, he bypassed the tra- ditional conservatory training most professional musicians undergo. The Donald B. Plott Scholarship will enable gifted young musicians to pursue a lib- eral arts education at Davidson, while also providing them with musical train- ing with experts in their fields. Workman, too, majored in English. Presently he sings lead baritone for the Frankfurt Opera Company in West Germany. Don Plott served as his first voice instructor. Making his first North Carolina ap- pearance, Mehta came to Davidson as a favor to Robinson. He is in his fifth sea- son with the Philharmonic and in his spare time he serves as music director of the Israel Philharmonic. The concert was broadcast live by WDAV. and it was taped and played Lit- er on WBTV in Charlotte. Performing in the orchestra were hand-picked mu- sicians from the Carolinas, including trumpeteer and music professor Wil- liam Lawing. The Chamber Chorus of the Oratorio Singers of Charlotte per- formed on two selections. A special performance for the camp- us was held on the morning of (an. 24.

Mehta himself admitted that he could not be credited with the success of the concert. The only difference be- tween me and you. he told the audi- ence at the post-concert dinner, is that you were seated and I had standing room only. McCormick disagreed: I saw how much he contributed just by the changes he made during the practice. Administrators agreed that the con- cert was a historical occasion for David- son. The efforts put into the planning of the event, noted Robinson, befittingly honored the efforts of a much-loved man.

Within 10 seconds, name the seven hills of Rome in alphabetical order. Now. who in the world could answer a question such as this one? For 10 points, the answer is the Davidson College Bowl team (alias the Comedy Bowl Team — all the members could easily appear on Sat- urday Night Live ). With a team motto of Win one for the Epper and nicknames such as Scruffy Overby. Trumbull and Egg- man, this team appears to be a group of clowns. Truthfully, th ey are a group of hard-working students who have a good time doing what they do best — answering difficult, obscure questions. The 1982-83 team consisted of Brad Mullis (captain), Marvin Overby, Gor- don Turnbull and John Eglin. Their coach, leader and inspiration for the motto is Dr. Hansford Epes. Davidson has a tradition of outstand- ing College Bowl teams that few other small colleges have attained. Davidson had the national champions in 1979 and finished second and fifth in 1981 and 1982, respectively. This year ' steam has maintained that tradition by win- ning the Bern, ' College Invitational and tying for fourth place in the regional championships. How does a college produce a great team? The answer is simple — prac- tice. The team spends hours answering rapid-fire questions. The practices are easygoing and fun, but the team mem- bers keep their minds sharp anticipat- ing the next questi on. Hearing ques- tions over and over and having natu- rally inquisitive minds, the team members learn many facts in diverse areas. Epes fittingly describes what con- tributes to a good player: The College Bowl mind is like fly paper. Everything sticks to it. There is often a misconception about picking team members who specialize in particular areas. Of course, some members are more adept in some areas than others, but usually College Bowl members are chosen on their ability to answer questions in a variety of cate- gories, to react quickly when undei pressure and to work well with the oth- er team members. Another requirement for a team members possibly may be a sense of humor. Why? Because this year ' s team claims that Reverend Al Green is their favorite singer, neopolitan is their fa- vorite ice cream, and they chose Mullis as their captain by a straw vote taken three years ago. Furthermore, this is their philosophy to develop a champi- onship team: give more College Bowl scholarships, build a College Bowl dorm and build a field house named Epes ' Palace.

They are Aventine, Caelian, Capitoline, Esqui line, Palatine, Quirinal and Viminal — Murray Simpson College Bowl 167 Theatre Dept. goes foreign Satirical comedy in the form of a Russian one-act play captured the attention of fall term theatre-goers. The Suicide, written in 1928 by Ni- kolai Erdman, is a rediscovered drama; because of its political hu- mor, Stalin banned the play in the Soviet Union. Consequently Erd- man ' s play was not translated into English until 1978. The cast, led by John Marks, Cath- erine McMillan and Laura Single- ton, welcomed the crative license af- forded by The Suicide. McMillan ex- plained that since the play has just reached this country, it has not yet been subject to major character defi- nition by critics or actors. The play also let the cast become familiar with Russian pronunci- ation. Language lab-type tapes of the characters ' names were prepared for the cast, and before rehearsals they practiced name pronunciation until eventually it became natural, McMillan said. One problem for Marks was Erd- man ' s use of goddamn. I felt uncomfortable taking the Lord ' s name in vain, said Marks. Dr. Rupert Barber, director of the play noticed Marks ' uneasiness and sug- gested changing goddamn to damn it. One of the most interesting inno- vations in the play was the use of a moving set designed by Steve Klein of UNCC and built by senior Eric Fichtner. Audiences gasped when Matt Merrell, who had to have faith that the moving stairs would be where they were supposed to be, walked off the second floor. The well-orchestrated perfor- mance of The Suicide received en- thusiastic reactions from faculty, students, parents and other viewers. English professor Tony Abbott com- mented, It was one of the two best plays I ' ve seen in 17 years at David- son. Spring term brought Pavel Ko- hout ' s Poor Murderer to Davidson. The second Russian play of the year, the production twisted the minds of audiences with the central and cryp- tic question of its plot: He ' s a mad- man — or is he? Roy Fuller, who played the lead role as a calculating murderer out- of-control madman, said he was dis- appointed with the size of the crowds attending the performances, but he was happy with the produc- tion itself. Noting that the part was by far the hardest he had ever played, Fuller became so immersed in the character that the distinction be- tween acting and reality was at times obscured. I didn ' t have any tensions or pent-up emotions during spring term — I got them all out on stage, he said. To Fuller, one of the most interest- ing aspects of the play was the cast ' s visit to Broughton Mental Institu- tion. Director Rupert Barber wanted them to be familiar with the actions and appearances of actual insane persons, as well as with the general atmosphere of an institution, where much of the play ' s plot is set. The actors and actresses walked around the institution and observed the patients, talked to their supervi- sors, and even talked to selected pa- tients about their past and present lives. Fuller called the trip a learn- ing experience. The production received compli- mentary reviews in The Charlotte Observer and various other publica- tions. Appearance versus reality was played to its fullest effect in the play, leaving audiences spellbound. — Christi Baggett 168 EVESTS DEJECTED |()V( E ROBINSON Caroline Loncq during a scene of Poor Murderer.

Students take lead The winter drama workshops serve as a testing ground for experimenta- tion. Students are responsible for all aspects of production: directing, de- signing, acting, lighting, preparing sound, costumes and make-up, and running the box-office. In filling these roles, students gain valuable theatri- cal experience. The workshop offerings were, as al- ways, varied. They ranged from exis- tentialism to absurdism. Karen Baldwin directed Suzanne Smith and Roy Fuller in Louis Ca- tron ' s 1972 playWhere Have All the Lightning Bugs Gone? This play por- trayed a touching relationship in a menacing world. Director Doug Vass staged the 1966 absurdist comedy, Loveliest After- noon of the Year. In this John Guare play, Loy Thorton and Pat Donley played two 60-year-olds who develop a sympathetic relationship. Just as the man declares his feelings for the woman in the park, his wife shows up and shoots the couple. Student interest was overwhelming in Next, directed by Charlie Lovett, and in Mary Girard, directed by Scot Myers. Lovett cast Suzanne Dickey as straightman to David Barber ' s jokes in Next, the story of a 40-year-old mother who is drafted and wants to be de- clared 4-F. The Insanity of Mary Girard, the study of a married woman who be- comes pregnant with another man ' s child and is then committed to an in- sane asylum, starred Joyce Robinson. Her character retreats into herself and chooses insanity as a means of escape. No Exit, directed by Bill Crone, made the existential statement that life takes on meaning only as the re- sult of others who observe that life. Elizabeth Williams, Chris Lightbown, Heather Jameson and Joe Jaworski are people in a room in Hell from which there is no exit. The Lesson, under the direction of Roy Fuller, described the personality inversion that takes place in a rela- tionship between a timid professor and a confident student. John Marks, Jenny Cooper and Laura Singleton starred in this thought-provoking workshop production. The 1982 workshop season was a successful one. Student response was overwhelming; the workshop theater was packed for nearly every play. The plays attracted both novice and exper- ienced cast members. It was this as- pect of testing and experimentation that was the drama workshop ' s draw- ing card. Other drama opportunities on campus included a BSC production of No Place to be Somebody in March, and Dr. Cynthia Lewis-Stanfield ' s English 212 seminar ' s performance of Much Ado About Nothing. —Catherine Finegan Drama Opportunities 171 SPEAKING ON RELIGIOUS TOPICS, Staley lec- turer Ron Sider spent a week at Davidson winter term. Lectures prompt ideas The Union Speakers Committee usually is responsible for inviting the maj ority of guest speakers who lecture on campus. This year the Speakers Committee sponsored only four lec- turers, but gave financial assistance to support the speakers invited by other organizations. Consequently, lectures were given on a variety of subjects. Union Program Coordinator Ann Parker said, Since the speakers com- mittee changed hands in the middle of the year and since the Union was so busy with the Zubin Mehta concert, we preferred to help support the lec- turers of other groups. The Women ' s Concerns Committee invited Sonia Johnson, one of the more controversial speakers of the year, to speak on women ' s rights dur- ing Celebrate Women! week. John- son, author of From Housewife to Heretic and ERA hunger striker, spoke about her experience in the women ' s movement that led to her ex- communication from the Mormon Church. The BSC invited Lerone Bennett, editor of Ebony Magazine to speak. NC PIRG asked John Hinck to discuss his involvement with the environ- mental organization, Greenpeace. Academic departments also spon- sored guest speakers. E. Talbot Don- aldson, noted Chaucer scholar, was invited by the English department to speak in the 900 Room. Every week the pre-med department holds a col- loquium in which discussion on a wide range of topics dealing with the medical profession takes place. The lecturers sponsored by the Union Speakers Committee included John Medlin, president of Wachovia; Dr. Paul Walker, M.I.T graduate and proponent of a nuclear arms freeze; Alan Dwyer, who spoke on the ethics of professional journalism; and Tandi Glabeska, member of the African na- tional congress. Norman Graebner, the Reynolds lecturer, was also sponsored by the Speakers Committee. Graebner, pro- fessor of modern American history at U. Va., discussed American foreign diplomacy. Davidson regularly incorporates several lecture programs into the schedule of lecturers. Woodrow Wil- son Fellow William Attwood, former editor of Look magazine, gave a series of talks on international politics. The Staley lecturer traditionally speaks on topics related to religion. Ron Sider this year lectured on Nuclear Holo- caust and Christian Hope and Evan- gelism and Social Responsibility. Although there was a variety of speakers on campus this year, there weren ' t as many well-known names as in other years. In the past two years Davidson hosted Julian Bond, William Buckley, Jim Hunt, Gerald Ford, and Birch Bayh, among others. Yet, ac- cording to Ann Parker, having a vari- ety of speakers is as important as hav- ing big names, since exposure to more topics is provided. — Kathy Gratto 172 Events NATIONAL ARBORETUM DIRECTOR Marc Cathey visited and spoke on campus fall term.

This year, however, saw several big- name acts perform on other week- ends. R.E.M., a popular Athens (Ga.) based group, came to Davidson twice, performing in the 900 Room winter term and in Love spring term. The lat- ter performance, according to Union Program Coordinator Ann Parker, was Davidson ' s best-attended concert of the year. The Union ' s Concert Committee and Intimate Performances Commit- tee usually sponsor concerts on camp- us. Eating houses and fraternities reg- ularly host band parties, most of which are open to all students. Other organizations at times sponsor musi- cal events such as the FCA-sponsored Grapes concert in the spring. The 900 Room hosts most of the con- certs during the year. Parker said the most popular acts to appear there, in addition to R.E.M., were Livingston Taylor, Brice Street, Loonis McGlo- hon, Cathexis, the Spongetones, Right Profile, Let ' s Active, Scott Jones, Flight 108, Kier Irmiter, the Rhythm Masters, Mike Cross and the D.C. Jazz Band. Concerts in Love included R.E.M., Marshall Crenshaw at Homecoming, and the Toons in September. Parker said it is difficult for David- son to attract big name acts, for they usually are too expensive for the Union committees ' budgets. We have to catch people on their way up or on their way down, she said. — Jim Reese DOUBLING AS A DRUMMER AM) SINGER, pi- i iriis Nnrilirii|i playa v i r h a band .it Opei Mike night.

It just happens to be built under a leak. This was Dr. Chalmers Davidson ' s warning to a drenched group of pro- spective students four years ago. I was in that group; therefore, I cannot say that I was not forewarned about the soggy Piedmont climate. I came any- way. For three years I walked through red mud until I ruined all of my pants cuffs, and I climbed steps that had been turned into cascading waterfalls that even the heartiest of salmon could not traverse, until I thought that no Davidson weather could phase me. I was here when the ice storms hit. I was here when people were sunbath- ing in January, but I was not ready for a snowfall on the second day of spring this year. We had hardly stopped talk- ing about it when we were hit with the second spring snowfall on April 18. These mini-blizzards were separated by above average rainfalls that forced the Spring Frolics concert to be held in the 900 Room. Explanations for the late snow and torrential spring rains were as diverse as blaming it on the Space Shuttle ' s effect on the atmosphere, to implying that it was a Moral Majority plot to keep students from partying at the Lake Campus. Whatever you say about the strange Davidson weather, it does have one benefit: without it 9 out of 10 people on campus wouldn ' t know how to start a conversation. — Chris Tiernan FORE!!!

Weather 177 Democracy in action Things have gone smoothly all year, said Ellen Papadeas, chairman of the SGA elections council. Voter turnout was higher this year than in the past two. Tim Johnston, SGA president, said that well over 50% of the student body voted in all elections. Much of the smooth running of the campus elections is attributed to the work of Mark Oldenburg, the SGA chancellor, whose job has been to serve on the elections council and to type and print ballots. Mark has been very efficient, said Papadeas. The year ' s stickiest problem cen- tered around the election of Honor Council representatives. There is no written rule that prohibits campaign- ing by Honor Council candidates. But in the past few years, the discretion urged by the elections council has evolved into simple abstinence from campaigning, particularly in terms of flyers. Oldenburg, acting on this tradition, told candidates at their meeting that flyers should not be distributed. Another source, however, acting on the letter of the law, and without knowledge of Oldenburg ' s statement, told a candidate that such publicity was within the election rules. When the advice of the latter elec- tions council member took effect in the form of one candidate ' s flyers, and the Oldenburg-informed candidates began questioning the legitimacy of such campaigning, the elections coun- cil met to resolve the conflict. The decision: that since the candi- date had been given two different an- swers, he was not disqualified; and since that one person had had the op- portunity for written publicity, the op- portunity should be extended to all. The resolution was, according to Papadeas, the best way to quickly re- solve a bad situation. The election was postponed a week, and though most candidates chose not to distribute fly- ers, the principle had been clarified. Papadeas pointed out the fact that elections, too, are covered by the Hon- or Code. Students are honor-bound to vote only once and to vote only for those elections in their own classes. Thus the SGA depends on the student body to retain its simple voting system and to continue the Davidson demo- cratic process. — Christi Baggett 178 EVENTS PRIOR TO sc iim nON8 rreahman Nancj in mi MIDST OF CROWDS gathered atthi Fannin demonstrates aglllt) In placing campaign office between classes, students lake a break t i iti i conspii uous positions around i ampus vote during 10 minutes i freedom X Campus Elections 179 Reigning cats and dogs In the absence of an Official Homecoming Theme this year, the College Union designed a creative, and certainly distinctive, Unofficial Theme for the Homecoming Week- end: Welcome Back the Campus Dogs. An original way of viewing the re- turn of Davidson alumni to their alma mater, this theme is singularly appropriate this year — but perhaps it ' s best to let sleeping dogs lie. Whatever the inspiration behind the theme, Homecoming 1982 was a pedigree affair, with enough activi- ties to sink one ' s teeth into that it was possible to bite off too much. Thursday night, October 7, the Union Concert Committee un- leashed the tunes of the Sponge- tones in the 900 Room. The doggone swinging sounds of the sixties hounded young dogs, smart dogs and big dogs alike (i.e., students, profs, and deans) into the right mood fo r the big weekend. How ' bout them ' Tones?! The festivities continued Friday afternoon with the Union-sponsored Station Break Race on Chambers ' front steps. The contestants showed up bright-eyed and bushy-tailed to stretch their legs and strut their stuff. From this paw-pounding exer- cise, Buck Bradberry and Shelley Lineberger returned panting, but victorious, the top dogs of the day and proud winners of pig ' s feet and wine, the next best thing to a steak bone. Friday night Davidson dogs wagged their tails to the tunes of Marshall Crenshaw in Love Audito- rium. For mellow jazz hounds, the 900 Room hosted Flight 108, a jazz band featuring WBCY Disc Jockey Fred Storey and former Projec- tions member Andre Ferrar. And for the late night Davidson setters who didn ' t go howl at the moon, the Union showed all-night films in the big screen room. Saturday morning the cross coun- try and soccer teams set the dog-eat- dog atmosphere of athletic competi- tion with outstanding performances. In the afternoon the ' Cats ruffled the fur of Guilford College in football, as they barked the Quakers off the field in a 35-22 victory. Sic ' em, boys! During halftime, the Homecoming Court was presented; it weren ' t no dog show! Senior Elizabeth McMil- lan, escorted by J. C. Faulkner and representing Sigma Alpha Epsilon, was crowned the 1982 Homecoming Queen. After such thoroughbred ex- amples of coed pulchritude, one wonders who, indeed, is man ' s best friend? For the party animals on campus, Patterson Court provided a myriad of activities. For example, PAX held a British pub for its members and dates, a hallowed tradition since 1980, complete with ale and tavern waitresses and maybe even ... a dog asleep by the fireside? From band parties Thursday night, featur- ing the likes of the Tams and Liquid Pleasure, to brunches, cocktail par- ties and steak dinners on Saturday, the Pat Court houses kept their pups in and out of the social dog- house — and the Davidson fall rain. (After all, nobody likes a wet dog.) And anyone who didn ' t spend the weekend at the vet ' s (or in Char- lotte) attended the campus-wide dance in the Commons, with Clif- ford Curry and Hot Smokin ' Brass providing the music. For the old-dogs-who-still-like-to- learn-new-tricks, the Alumni Office planned as many events as did the young whelps still attending old Davidson ( O Davidson, fight song, line 14). The alums who sniffed out the trail back to this neck of the North Meek woods enjoyed, more or less, reunions for the classes of 1977- 1982, luncheons for those same classes and for the Avant Garde (classes of 1932 and earlier) and a Barbeque Brew for the Class of ' 77 ' s fifth reunion at Will Terry ' s house. For old and young, Homecoming 1982 was a chance to take a break from the daily doggy routines of things. Unless one simply rolled over and played dead for three days, some fun was bound to be had among all this canine confusion. — Heather Jameson 1 80 EVENTS DOG DAYS PERSIST at Davidson year-round.

I just got over my home- sickness! What will my professors say to them? How can I tell them all that has happened to me? These are but a few of the thoughts that went through our heads before Parents Weekend, November 5-6. For some, it was the first time we had seen our parents since school began. Re- membering Thomas Wolfe ' s You Can ' t Go Home Again, and knowing that we had changed since we began living at Davidson, we were filled with expec- tations. Apprehension and excitement filled the halls prior to the parents ' arrival. When the weekend came to an end, over 700 sets of parents had visited their children and learned about life at Davidson. A diverse set of activities was planned for the enjoyment of parents and students. Members of the faculty and student body led panel discus- sions on academic pressures, finan- cial aid, study abroad and career choices. All were geared to inform parents of student concerns. Informal socials were held at the houses of faculty advisors in an at- tempt to acquaint parents with some of the faculty members. The drama department presented its talents to a large audience in three showings of the play The Suicide. Several sports events took place over the weekend on the soccer and football fields as well as on the basket- ball court. On Saturday morning, par- ents saw seniors march in caps and gowns for the first time during fall convocation. The final event planned for Parents Weekend was a reception held in the Chambers Gallery. Several freshman halls and eating houses served wine and cheese while parents met other parents and professors. The weekend reunited parents with their Davidson students; for many it was an opportunity to meet new peo- ple and make new friends. For the students, it was a much needed morale booster prior to exam week. For the parents, it was a week- end when they could be a part of their children ' s lives at Davidson. — Trish Lennon LISA CASH AND TOR PARENTS share laughs after dinner at Warner Hall 182 EVENTS X % % DURING A SOCCER MATCH, parent and siu- ■ rythlng from lion to soccer.

Despite its- miserable reputation, students may survive winter if brought in from the rain, dried off and warmed by an appropriate beverage. And then, of course, there is Mid- winters — that Big Weekend designed to beat the winter blues. It ' s a shame that the Midwinters tradition is dying, said junior Frances Palmer, remem- bering years past when students enthusiasti- cally participated in the organized activities of the weekend. Low attendance at the formal dance in the Commons and the absence of a major concert led to speculation about apathy abounding on campus. Student Union Social Vice-President Dan- ny Waddill said that the dance committee de- cided to replace the large concert with inti- mate performances by Kier Irmiter and Brice Street in the 900 Room when some possibili- ties [for a major concert] fell through at the last minute. R.E.M., however, rocked the 900 Room the following weekend due to the ef- forts of the committee. Perhaps Midwinters was not perfect, but Davidson ' s sense of humor shone through any adversity. The Union Games Committee sponsored a Station Break Race, giving stu- dents an opportunity to bob for Baby Ruths, to talk to goldfish and to run like Rocky, all for rewards of chocolate syrup and baby bottles (among other lucrative prizes). Those with a real appetite for adventure partook of pounds of pancakes in another epic struggle. The antics of emcees Danny Waddill and Stan Hynds entertained the audience at the Top Hats and Cat Tails talent show on Thurs- day night ' s kick-off to the weekend. Other Davidson students took to the stage as well, singing, dancing and playing instruments. Traditional Patterson Court band parties contrasted other more formal events, such as the Kappa Alpha champagne party, the ETC Moonlight and Magnolia Prom, the Pi Kappa Alpha Casino Party, and the PAX Prin- cess ( Lust Barge ). At the PAX party passen- gers danced on deck, sweltered in a hot tub and reviewed live entertainment in the star- light lounge. Many couples dined elegantly amidst the sparkling city lights of downtown Charlotte. The weekend ' s attire varied from white tie and tails at the dance to swimsuits in the hot tub. Some students headed for the mountains and skiied. while others ignored the festivi- ties and caught up on their studying. A true indication that Midwinters has kept its importance as an uplifter of spirits is that the freshman Humanities professors post- poned a test originally scheduled for Monday after Midwinters to Tuesday.

Thus, to educate the student body in the calibre of performances, an Ad I loc Artists Series Committee was formed. Instead of promoting ticket sales through the Union Board, this com- mittee of 15 students worked on pro- motion and publicity. They also ushered for the series. An introduc- tory seminar on the importance of art given by Music Professor James Swisher and Theatre Arts Professor Rupert Barber enabled these sales- man to communicate the level of tal- ent represented by the series. Ap- proximately 1000 tickets were sold, and McMillan felt the season was suc- cessful. The Goldovsky Grand Opera The- atre performed Puccini ' s La Bo- heme in English on November 1. The Goldovsky Company was founded in 1946 by Boris Goldovsky and has gained a reputation for emphasizing the dramatic alongside the musical as- pects ol production i In I ei embei 2 the North !arolina I lance Theatre performed both classi- i al and contemporary ballet Audi- em e response was strongest to the troupe ' s modern dance tribute to women, which utilized the soundtrack from the movie Manhole. The 18- member dance company has ap- peared in 200 cities in 25 states and is based at the North I iarolina School of the Arts in Winston-Salem. The finest Soviet emigre artists from both the Moscow and Leningrad Philharmonics and Chamber Orches- tras, as well as from the Bolshoi and Kirov Theatres, make up the Soviet Emigre Orchestra. On February 9, the orchestra played composition by Mo- zart, Shostakovich and Tchaikovsky to a responsive Davidson audience. The final performance for the sea- son was given on March 29. The Act- ing Company, which last year per- formed A Midsummer Night ' s Dream on campus, this year performed an- other Shakespearean comedy of mis- taken romance, Twelfth Night. Sev- enteen actors make up the company, directed by John Houseman, former head of the drama division at Julliard. Through the hard work of the Art- ists Series committee and the excep- tional combined talents of writers, composers, musicians and actors, the arts are alive and well at Davidson. — Kathy Gratto III!

JUMPING, DANCING, SINGING, JUGGLING and acting by Locomotion Vaudeville makes the old feel young and the young have fun. The Spring Frolics that wasn ' t Spring What? What? — Spring? OK, I ' ve got permission to be hon- est for this Big Weekend 3 article — so, let ' s face it: The Frolics this year were in most cases not Big, and the weather was at most times not Spring. There were exceptions, of course. For example, PIKA ' s beach party. When you know you ' ve got to clean a ton or two of sand out of the house on Saturday morning, you might as well frolic on Friday night. And a hot tub (at PAX on Friday, at PIKA on Saturday), by its very na- ture, promotes true frolicking (in- cluding late-night nudity, courtesy of the PIKA pledges). Warner Hall had its Friday hors d ' oeuvres and its Saturday after-din- ner drinks. ATO had its Bavarian all- you-can-eat waffles after the Satur- day night dance. And I kept seeing dressed-up KAs running to and from their house. But, not being a KA pledge, or a Warner Hall member, or hungry after the dance, I can ' t comment. My essential observation was the contrast with Homecoming — Big Weekend 1 — in terms of invita- tions and options. Obviously, since Homecoming was before self-selec- tion, most house parties were open; now, after self-selection, most were closed. Not to be negative about a natural evolution. The Union did try to take up the slack, but the nasty weather staged a coup. The traditional Friday afternoon outdoor concert, this year with Let ' s Active and Right Profile, was moved to the 900 Room. The beer was still free, but the un- fulfilled rumors of Duran Duran and the Stray Cats and sunshine contrib- uted to an aura of disappointment. Science-fiction-comedy fans pos- sibly experienced an improvement in mood with Time Bandits, the pop film of the weekend. The gray drizzle (a just-enough- to-spoil-the-outdoors rain) contin- ued Saturday, changing the Carnival on the Lawn to a Carnival in the Union and axing the prospects of hot-air ballooning. Locomotion Vaudeville nevertheless aptly enter- tained an enthusiastic crowd. The dance confirmed the rumors that few people had dates for the evening and that the band, Thresh- old, was nothing to squeal about. My own date and I (my initiative — the settlement of a bet I had lost fall term) and the other couple with us arrived at the dance at about 10 p.m. — suitably late. We gasped at the sight of no more than 12 couples on the huge Commons dance floor. Immediately walking over to view the refreshments side of the build- ing, we anticipated chattering hordes. Nope. Nobody. Let ' s go make daiquiris. After a private daiquiri party we decided to check out PAX ' s luau. But it had started at 6 p.m. Since it was, by then, around 12 a.m., all but ten people had left. We headed back to the dance — somehow the number of couples had doubled — and at- tempted to shag to pop music until 1 a.m. Then, on to Cathexis in the 900 Room — contemporary jazz by Da- vidson alums of five or six years. An improvement over the dance, the show was enjoyable, the audience somewhat involved, and the free sandwiches great. But, getting back to the overall picture and trying to recount the weekend realistically, Spring Frolics has to be labeled low-key. The Union served as the center of the ac- tivity, upstaging Patterson Court. Great disappointment must have been felt by those hoping to relish in sun and fun. But for those hoping just to have a moderate, relaxing weekend, Spring Frolics probably pleased. — Christi Baggett 188 EVENTS Spring Frolics 189 Awards and gowns go arm-in-arm Long before seniors receive their di- plomas at graduation, they don their caps and gowns at fall and spring con- vocations. Dressed in the traditional black robes, the seniors assemble in Love Auditorium and listen to speeches concerning important issues, while in- dividual students and faculty receive awards for outstanding achievements. Convocation presents a special oppor- tunity for the senior class to come to- gether. Fall convocation, which took place Nov. 5, featured speaker John C. West, ambassador to Saudi Arabia and former governor of South Carolina. Mira Phailbus, the president of Kinnard Col- lege for Women in Lahore also deliv- ered a short speech entitled Message from Pakistan. Both West and Phailbus received honorary degrees at the cere- mony. Major honors presented at the fall convocation included the Thomas Jef- ferson Faculty Award, presented to Dr. Malcolm Lester; the Goodwin-Exxon Award, for upperclassmen who exem- plify high standards of character, sports- manship and consideration of others, was awarded to Pete Skillern, Debby Williams and Brad Mullis; The Alumni Association Award, presented to the sophomore with the highest grade point average in the freshman year, was awarded to Murray Simpson. In addition, several new members were inducted into Omicron Delta Kappa, a leadership organization for outstanding students in scholarship, so- cial and religious activities, publications and athletics. The College Bowl team was awarded a $1000 scholarship given by Time magazine for the team ' s perfor- mance in the regional and national championship tournaments in 1982. Spring convocation on April 15 was particularly significant in that President Samuel Spencer delivered his final ad- dress to the college. Spencer expressed his views of three controversial topics affecting Davidson ' s future: athletics, self-selection and sex-blind admissions. A college must build not for the pre- sent but for the future, Spencer stated, emphasizing the importance of devel- oping long range plans for men ' s and women ' s sports facilities. He encouraged self-selection for Pat- terson Court, considering it a humane alternative to the bid system. Spencer did not advocate sex blind admissions. He claimed that minorities, international students and those with athletic scholarships made special con- tributions to the college and add to the diversity of the student body. Spencer encouraged a sense of unity for the col- lege. He said: This must be a democratic JORGIA RICE participates in SBH musical talent in the Wind EnaEClff 190 EVENTS (,nii| iis with equal treatment and re- s|i.-i t for all Individuals and openness to .ill Ideas i the awards ceremony the firsl re- cipient of the newly established Her- man Brown Professorship was an- nounced Chairman of the biology de- partment, Dr. John Williamson, received the fellowship.

The Code allows the students to live together in a free environment, trusting each other. Evidence of this trust is visible on campus in many ways. Few students ever lock their rooms. Tests are given without proctors, and exams are self- scheduled. Students and professors leave books lying about without hesita- tion, confident that they will not be tak- en. The library operates with an open- stack system. Although most students agree that the Honor System is one of Davidson ' s finest assets, occasional violations do occur.

People need to be sensitized to these problems. he said. But Terry also recognized that trouble may occur in trying to maintain absolute purity. Applying the Code to every oc- currence of misconduct on campus could dampen the respect for the Honor Sys- tem, he noted. continued on page 190 Honor System 195 The Honor Code: Worth the gamble At the end of winter term, the Honor Council had convicted fewer students than usual. This could mean that fewer students are cheating, or that more stu- dents are getting away with it. Senior True Davis, who is serving on the Honor Council for the third year, said, The trend I see is that more people are aware of the System. Davis said the mock hearings, open to the entire student body, play a large part in increasing student awareness. The Honor Council has also visited most of the eating houses and dormitories, an- swering questions and explaining the implications of the System. The procedure used in enforcing the Honor System involves several steps. First, violations are reported either to the dean of students or to a student solicitor. At this point the accused student may admit his guilt and permit the dean to impose a penalty. If the accused claims innocence, his case is turned over to the Student Hear- ing Committee, consisting of a panel of the student solicitor, a defense advisor, and a panel of six members from the Honor Court. If the panel decides the student is guilty, the Committee imposes a penalty. A convicted student may appeal to a Review Board, which includes three professors and two students. If still unsa- tisfied, the student may make an appeal to the president of the college. Although the Honor Council must seem formidable to the accused student, Davis pointed out that the student body has control over the board. Each mem- ber is elected by students. In this way the student body determines its quality and strength. An area in which the Honor System ' s effectiveness could be questioned is in the library. The 1981-82 inventory of the library found 304 books missing. The average book price is over $22; it costs the college nearly $7,000 to replace these books. Dr. Leland Park, director of the library, said he still believes in the Honor Sys- tem. Davidson ' s loss rate, one-tenth of one percent, is much smaller than most university libraries ' . Moreover, most oth- er colleges and universities, including UNCC, either post guards at the doors of their libraries or use automatic checking 196 ACADEMICS systems. Park said he does not foresee such measures at Davidson. I think it ' s worth the gamble, he said. Park asserted that the Honor System, like the library, exists for the students. On that point everyone seems to agree. The Code is here for our benefit, Da- vis pointed out.

On October 19 the faculty voted to accept the Semester Planning Committee ' s proposal to switch from the present trimester calendar to a semester system. The proposal will not be implemented until the 1984-85 school year, and thus will affect only current freshmen and sophomores. The delay will leave aca- demic departments a full year to adjust their courses to the new system. The advantages and disadvantages of the proposal were debated for weeks in the Davidsonian as well as on fliers post- ed around campus by students and pro- fessors. The major arguments given by faculty members in support of the change indicated that more time to pre- pare research and lesson plans would be available. Opposition to the change stemmed from the argument that many classes would be overcrowded and that the physical plant could not accommo- date some of the larger classes. The faculty voted 60-33 in favor of the change. The student body, however, thought differently. An S.G.A. referen- dum, conducted four days prior to the faculty vote, showed that 77.2% of the students opposed the change. Although S.G.A. President Tim Johnston presented the results of the referendum to the fac- ulty on October 19, student opinion obvi- ously carried little weight in the decision. The faculty ' s disregard of the referen- dum disappointed many students. S.G.A. Vice-President Boe Young found it un- fortunate that they ignored the students ' opinion. continued on page 201 !

The semester system will permit stu- dents to absorb concepts more slowly and completely. But Monroe also ac- knowledged that Davidson will lose one key advantage of the semester system: focus. The current structure reduces the need for students to switch from subject to subject. Students now can devote their concentration to fewer topics. The im- pending change will weaken this focus. If Thornberry is correct, however, the percolation effect and other advan- tages will outweigh the loss of focus. —Dick Richards m PROFESSORS SUCH AS Dr. Man- Thornberry spoke out strongly in favor of the semester switch. SOME PEOPLE COMPLAINED that under the new svstem small classes will be harder to find. The Semester S Developing the art of thinking As a liberal arts college, Davidson has a responsibility to the education of its students, which entails the cultivation of a comprehensive world perspective through a strong interdisciplinary educa- tional program. Indeed, the opening pas- sage of the 1982-1983 college catalog states: Davidson ' s educational program is designed to help students develop the art of thinking (p. 7, Davidson College Catalog). In order to accomplish this am- bitious goal, Davidson lists among its re- quirements for graduation the comple- tion of a certain number of courses in each of four pre-specified areas of study (i.e., Language, Literature, Music and the Fine Arts; Religion and Philosophy; Natural Science and Mathematics; and Social Science). Upon graduation the Davidson student should be fully pre- pared to enter the real world, the dog- eat-dog rat race of struggling humanity, because he possesses the singular talent among men, of thinking. Interestingly enough, research investi- gating the behavior of students complet- ing academic requirements in areas oth- er than their major field of study has un- earthed some surprising patterns. Students seem to possess a remarkable interest in courses numbered 021; re- gardless of the department — be it biol- ogy, theatre, chemistry or physics — the popularity of 021 level courses surely has statistical significance. Almost as popu- lar are those numbered 101; these courses, however, are frequently prereq- uisites to further study within a field, and figures indicating their popularity may not necessarily represent an accurate in- dication of the role which they perform in this situation. Another peculiar circumstance in- volved in fulfilling these sine qua non requirements is the assumption that be- ginning level courses of study naturally will be taught on an elementary level. This gross misconception has led to the consequent downfall of many a GPA at Davidson. To provide an example of this regrettable attitude, one student has been quoted on the topic of his Math 024 class: And the thing that kills me about this course is . . . it ' s HARD! Sad but true. One cannot help but feel amaze- ment that Davidson students could har- bor such notions. How could anyone who calls himself a scholar entertain preconceptions so ignorant and close- minded? One can only hope that indif- ference toward areas other than one ' s major and underestimation of the poten- tial value of these areas will not infect the majority of the Davidson student body but rather will be eliminated as the students mature. For what benefit does a liberal arts education serve if the student does not explore all regions of knowledge? What true scholar feels an interest in only one department of study? Surely we make a mockery of the very tradition which Da- vidson represents if we do not possess a sincere zest to master other areas than that on which we intend to concentrate! Let us be proud of the heritage of schol- arship in which we have such a bounte- ous portion and acquire a consciousness of ourselves as fit heirs to such a legacy by absorbing the basic principles of as many disciples as we reasonably are able and thereby contribute to universal scholarship and the development of the art of thinking. — Heather Jameson 202 ACADEMICS |OH.

Elodie McMillan counts out the night ' s reading assign- ments while a curious Allen Lazenby looks on. FINDING SOLITUDE AMONG THE STACKS, Bill Bigger takes advantage of the uncommon quiet in the ' braire. The sound of silence The ' Braire: social center of Davidaon College, so the 19H2 Freshman Hand- book declares. The role of the library U Director Leland Park said, is symbolized by its location in the center of campus. In Park ' s words. You have to trip on it as you go around. Careful observation will reveal that all student activity in the ' braire itself doesn ' t have a foreboding presence. Though the promise of long, hard nights there might be ominous, the building it- self is designed to be open, bright, acces- sible, and even inviting. Within the ' braire are varying degrees of intense studying; each student quite naturally attracted to whatever place fits his mood and or workload. There ' s the laid-back, social main floor; the social but more intense second floor; and the hard-core basement, com- plete with the dreaded, morgue-like all- night study room. Part said he is pleased with the braire ' s necessary variety. He is also proud that, in the South, the ' bralre ' l ra- tio of books to students is second only to that of Duke University. The hardest task of the administration, according to Park, is keeping a current collection, which is developed primarily by the faculty. They purchase approxi- mately 10,000 new books each year and approximately 1,500 new periodicals. Accomplishing this task, the director said, would be difficult without the vi- sion of President Sam Spencer and Vice President of Academic Affairs T C. Price Zimmermann in supporting and encour- aging the ' braire ' s growth. Park said, That ' s the best legacy they ' re going to leave this school — an orderly, methodical development of the collection by scholars. Questioned about future develop- ments in the ' braire, Park replied, How we integrate the use of the computer is going to be interesting. But enough of the ' braire ' s academic function. Let ' s face it: diligent as David- son students are, they use the ' braire pri- marily for not-studying. Not-studying has become quite an art form. Some of its fundamentals are so- cializing, scoping the opposite sex, mak- ing trips to the water fountain and, last Inn tar from least, sleeping. The latter la a favorite form of study breaks since the braire is usually incom- parably quieter than any dorm and since some reading assignments are more ef- fective than Sominex. Said Assistant Director and Reference Coordinator Mary Beaty, It still gives me a shock to walk by the stacks and see somebody flat asleep. Beaty and Park are both flattered, however, by students ' considering the braire a social center; they like the fa ct that the ' braire is where students feel at home. Even the carrels, complete with pic- tures, clocks, posters, cups and other study aids, evidence the ' braire ' s position as students ' home away from their home away from home. Whether the love-hate relationship with the ' braire leans toward love or to- ward hate, one must admit that there is indeed a relationship.

Despite the demands of homework, the relaxed atmo- sphere of the braire often leads one to daydream- ing. YOU DID WHAT?

Every Tuesday they appear in classes conspi- cously clad in Army camouflage uni- forms. The Reserve Officers ' Training Corps (ROTC) cadets now compose one of Davidson ' s most visible student orga- nizations. Cadet Batallion Commander Joe Sloop explained that the mission of the ROTC department is straightforward: to pre- pare college students to serve as quality officers in the U.S. Army. The cadet cadre, comprised of senior cadets or MS IVs, work together to train the corps of cadets. Sloop is assisted by Cadet Majors Harry Easterling, Rus- sell Snipes and Boe Young. The aim of the cadre is to prepare the younger cadet for summer Advanced Camp at Fort Bragg, N.C. This training involves activi- ties such as marksmanship, map reading, compass courses, physical training (or PT in ROTC talk), serving in leader- ship positions, military skills and tactical exercises where the cadets react to bat- tlefield situations. As a result of the MS IVs ' perfor- mances at 1982 Advanced Camp, the Da- vidson Batallion was awarded the 1982 Governor ' s Trophy for placing first in the GUIDON BEARER JAMES ROZZELLE leads a camouflaged platoon of MS Ills past Richardson Dorm on an autumn march. Carolinas. Overall the Davidson MS IVs ranked third out of the 108 schools host- ing Army ROTC on the eastern sea- board. Nine Davidson cadets successfully completed Airborne School at Fort Ben- ning, Ga. There they each made five parachute jumps from heights of up to 2000 feet. Two cadets also completed Air Assault School at Fort Campbell, Ky., where they rappelled from helicopters. The Davidson chapter of the National Society of Scabbard Blade, a military honor fraternity, ranked first out of 200 chapters in the nation this year. Sloop is particularly proud of the fraternity ' s community involvement. Scabbard Blade has sponsored two blood drives, ice cream socials, a military ball and a series of guest speakers including Martin Blumenson, a nationally renowned mili- tary historian. Why do students j oin ROTC in the first place? Cadet Mike Washburn stated plainly his reason for joining ROTC: I want to be an officer in the Army. Cadet Russell Snipes said, As an Army officer, I ' ll have many challenges, opportunities and experiences no other job can pro- vide. Sloop pointed out many other reasons, including the challenge of ROTC train- ing, patriotism, travel and, finally, the money. All of the 10 MS IVs are on ROTC scholarships, which cover full tu- ition, books, lab fees, and which pay $100 per month. For whatever the reasons, nearly 70 students are involved i n the successful ROTC program at Davidson. — Dick Richards FRESHMAN BILL OLDHAM and junior Phil Harry carefully fold the U.S. flag in front of Cham- bers as junior Brad Perkins secures the line. 206 ACADEMICS SOPHOMORE CADET ELIZABETH I.USK ■ during Scab- bard ■• Blade ' s (• ill bl I drive AN INTENSE MARTIN HONOR GUARD carrtai ill,- colors Into .1 home basketball game Brad inlands the guard led Into the court bj K.-n I lowarth ROTC 207 Balancing books and banter Studying is an integral part of life at Davidson College, but the levels of qual- ity and quantity devoted to this activity vary across the campus. It is easier for some than it is for others: new freshmen come to realize that course studies far outweigh the amount of time and work needed for high school homework and soon discover that studying is as much a part of life as sleeping and eating (both of which are known to many students as study breaks). To some, it can be quite addictive (how often do you see upper- class pre-meds at the lake campus on weekdays?), and to others, procrastina- tion is a way of life. People can be seen studying from one end of town to the other, in various loca- tions and positions. During the cooler months of the year, students camp out in the library at tables, carrells, and be- tween aisles. More people study in their rooms during the winter, but once warm- er weather has settled in, the lawns are covered with sprawling bodies and books, as students attempt to soak up knowledge and the sun ' s rays simulta- neously. Some girls who live in Richard- son poise on a ledge of the dorm that has come to be known to many as Richard- son Beach, but most people who desire the beach-like setting to study in can be found at the lake campus from early afternoons to early evenings. While many students take the outdoor approach, there remains a group of peo- ple who prefer to mix their studies with other activities. Eating and studying are a popular combination, and the problems that result are few. It is difficult to avoid dropping half of everything that is head- ed for the mouth for consumption on books and papers, and it is even more of a challenge, unless you are ambidex- trous, to read, turn pages and take notes all at the same time. These two activities performed together are believed to be the root cause of that well-known fresh- man 15, but the students who endeavor to eat and study concurrently claim that there is no threat of a sunburn in the Commons, Union Cafe or eating houses. A common habit on campus is to at- tempt to study and sleep at the same time, but this method only allows for studying one subject: the backs of the eyelids, which is not a course offered at Davidson. For those people who prefer to discuss subjects with others in order to under- stand the course studies better, small groups are formed in several classes for this purpose, such as Humes study ses- sions, physics problem set groups, and various review sessions for classes in dif- ferent departments. As an almost necessary part of study habits, study breaks are exercised by most students to catch a breath between subjects and or chapters. Some people prefer to schedule breaks every hour or two with 15 minute breaks, whereas a number of others choose to study for 15 minutes and take one hour breathers. These breaks utilized in many differ- ent ways, including eating, sleeping, lis- tening to music, sharpening pencils, go- ing to the bathroom, or just staring into space, a mindless activity performed by everyone at one time or another during the course of studying. No matter how, when, how much, and where you choose to study, the why is known to all: it is essential to develop good study habits to pass courses at Davidson. — Irish Lennon PERHAPS NOT THE BEST WAY TO STUDY, this method sure beats the ' braire. wissms 208 ACADEMICS SUSAN K i I l ■ Ida with the huh on ipriiuj .« 1 i«-r - KIRSTEN MCDONALD enjoys studying in her room .it M.irtin Manor lo the more popular locales such as the library A POPULAR BREAK f rom studying, frisbee is cru- cial to Stephen Giles ' academic routine. Study Habits 209 Uncovering the Center ' s mystique There she sits — nestled between the Post Office and the Copeland House, rarely visited by most Davidsonians and totally ignored by still others — the Cen- ter for Special Studies. The true skeptic might assert that the Center exists merely for the edification of Honors students and wine tasters. The rest of us on the outside remain open- minded but perplexed, for we find it dif- ficult to become intellectually stimulated by An Historical Study of Riparian Rights and the Rocky River, which is just one of many special programs re- cently completed at the Center. Surely each Davidson student has sat beneath some fragrant campus oak and pondered the Center and its function. Who studies within its confines and exactly what makes these students so special? The truths concerning the Center for Special Studies do it far greater justice than the uninformed myths held by many Davidson students. An applicant need not spend each Friday night in the library or carry an astonishingly high GPA in order to be accepted as a Center major. Admission considerations are based, to a large degree, on the quality and feasibility of the educational propos- al, and the availability of competent su- pervision. All upperclassmen are eligi- ble to apply, and those interested must contact the dean of the Center for Spe- cial Studies. Dr. Louis Ortmayer, appointed last year to fill the dean ' s position, oversees a myriad of intellectual endeavors ranging from studies in neuroscience to photog- raphy projects. This flexibility results from the Center ' s recruitment of faculty members from all disciplines of study. Any given student can design a major to suit his postgraduate ambitions, pro- viding he can effectively support the proposal ' s aims. While welcoming qual- ity academic proposals in all areas of study, the Center encourages interna- tionally-related studies in particular. A glance at the Center ' s recent bro- chure provides the reader with a sam- pling of the projects undertaken during the past year. Among them: A Study of Herman Melville ' s Novels, the French Presidential Elections 1981, An Investi- gation of Algebraic Topology and Piaget ' s Concept of Number, and A Study of Ag- ing. A brilliant investigative effort by the yearbook staff has unearthed a list of fu- ture projects, equally pertinent and ap- plicable to the world at large: THE SNACK BAR PIZZA: A BIO- CHEMICAL PHENOMENON.

Ach, du lieber! That way I ' ll never get this article written. Explaining what it ' s like in Marburg is impossible. You have to experience it . . . whether you ' re like one of 15 Davidson students there for a year, or like one of the two who were there for the first half of the year. Well, I could cop out and just explain my feelings toward our director. On second thought, that ' s no easy task ei- ther, but I ' ll versuch (the German translation of Mr. T ' s attempt at intimi- dating Rocky in the ring; go for it had a lot more power). To start, Doug Stott was a friend and adviser as well as a teacher. He took sincere interest in his students and what they had to say. He was always open in telling us how we were progressing with the language. The pressures placed on us were quite strong at times. Before our Christ- mas break, half of our work for the se- mester was due. That most of the classes didn ' t require any work to be handed in was explained by our calling Doug a slavedriver. So many times we remembered the Davidson students in Mont pel lier baring it all, or at least half, on the beaches in the south of France, or the pictures from JYA two years ago of the guys in the casinos. Well, we lost money and had no cars, only home- work. But the situation improved. After the break we came back to Marburg with reduced workloads and realizations that we had mastered German after all. Doug ' s method of providing a heavy load in the first half of the semester, then tailing off toward the end, paid off. In that way we became as closely ac- quainted with the subtleties of the lan- guage as early as possible in order to adjust and take advantage of the strik- ingly different lifestyle in Germany. The language had to be learned first! Besides intensive language sessions in September, we had three-hour-long seminars in which Doug lectured in German on German history, culture, religion and philosophy. The highlight of that seminar came one day when Doug let us loose on the topic of capital- ism versus socialism after having fin- ished a discussion on Nietzsche. The debate grew quite heated as the class split into two factions and battled the question on a fairly intellectual basis with only limited direction from Doug. His directing of that seminar that day and throughout the semester made my experience in Germany all the more meaningful. —Scott Otto EN ROUTE TO FRANCE, Julie Cheek talks to Jane Thompson aboard an airplane.

Students leave in the fall and are back home in time for Thanksgiving. For art buffs, Dr. Larry Ligo takes a group to France every other spring. An appreciation of art is the only prereq- uisite — no knowledge of French is re- quired. The English and history departments co-sponsor a summer course entitled England in the Age of Romanticism and Revolution at Cambridge Univer- sity in England. Picking up two credits (one English and one history) appeals to so many that the number of students applying repeatedly exceeds the num- ber accepted. For this reason, the pro- gram is offered yearly, and rising sen- iors are given priority. Speakers of Spanish are encouraged to practice their skills in Spain. Drs. Kemp and Hernandez-Chiroldes alter- nately assume the burden of touring Spain with a group that has pledged to speak no English. Not everyone leaves the country on terms away, however. In alternate au- tumns, biology majors are able to study marine biology on the shores of Beau- fort. S.C. Many students choose pro- grams of their own in order to spend time away from campus. Janet Morris, for example, will be studying for course credit while on a cruise next year. — Carol Roche Studying Avay 215 Unlimited offerings By the time senior year rolls around, most students know about the Careers Office. Directed by Ken Wood and his assistant, Suzie Summers, the office helps students to find careers that best suit them. For freshmen and sophomores, there are several preliminary career choos- ing programs offered. Life Work Plan- ning Workshops are held periodically to target the strengths of students. Wood encourages the participants to read materials in his office that pertain to their major interests. The office also sponsors camping trips, during which alternative lifestyles are explored. Juniors are prepared for the job search through seminars, starting in the spring before senior year. Wood ex- plains the fundamentals of job hunting, always encouraging students to gain experience in their fields of interest through externships or internships. Most of the work by Wood and Sum- mers, however, is directed toward sen- iors heading for careers. Beginning ear- ly in the fall the Careers Office holds seminars on topics such as job inter- viewing and resume writing. Wood this year brought to campus representa- tives from over 30 companies that in- terviewed students who had partici- pated in the Careers Office ' s programs. Although many students are hired by these companies, others look for jobs with companies that do not come to campus, and Wood helps them to pre- pare for interviews as well. And, late in the spring when seniors without jobs get frantic, he and Summers investi- gate alternatives for those graduates facing unemployment. Yet job-seekers are not the only peo- ple to utilize the Careers Office. Avail- able in the basement Chambers coun- seling wing are graduate school cata- logs. Those students not seeking employment immediately after gradu- ation might be interested in intern- ships. For example, a pre-med might work for the National Institute of Health; an economics major heading for an MBA might take a term off to work in an accounting firm. Wood helps students from all academic pro- grams to coordinate practical experi- ence with liberal arts. He can ' t find a career for anyone, but he can assist stu- dents in finding a direction once they target a field of interest. — Jim Reese 216 ACADEMICS INSIDE THE ENVELOPE, GRE SCORES hold the key to grad school.

It ' s not the build- ings or the professor, but rather that wonderfully exciting afternoon or wee hour experience . . . Labs! Labs can be a very important educa- tional tool in that they supplement classroom activity and allow for more in-depth study. More important, how- ever, labs serve as a continuous and universal source of inside jokes and in- teresting memories. Consider the science labs, for in- stance. The key words here are lab fee. Students find out soon enough that breaking equipment can be expen- sive — just ask the guy who broke an entire distillation unit. And who could forget playing mystery chemical or staying in the lab until 8 p.m. doing a gravimetric analysis during Chem. 41? These die-hards must have cringed when thinking about their Chem. 21 counterparts playing cards or making ice-cream at the Gables as part of their lab. Somehow afternoons spent with The Sage or Freddy just don ' t seem as enjoyable. Biology labs bring their share of — shall we say — graphic memories. And there ' s an added bonus: friends and roommates get to share in this experi- ence. Ask those who had to eat next to someone who had been in lab all after- noon. Formaldehyde does not mix with chicken tetrazinni. And have you ever tried to go to sleep when your room- mate is busy studying the dead rat he brought home for the weekend? It ' s not pleasant. But, as they say, No pain, no gain. The language lab is always good for a few laughs and endless hours of repe- tez, s ' il vous plait. Students can al- ways be found winding the tape back- wards to listen to the responses of classmates. More than once a parlez vous t% @ could be heard through the earphone. For music enthusiasts, lab can make or break a student ' s appreciation for classical music. Cramming in Cun- ningham to Beethoven ' s Fifth isn ' t al- ways conducive to an appreciation of music, although it certainly beats the library.

It ' s amazing what masterpieces can emerge over- night, and the number of wet canvassss that are hurried into the classroom at the last possible moment. Such memories are vivid in the minds of all Davidson students. Labs are just a way of life; they ' re virtually unavoidable. Probably the most com- mon memories are the times invita- tions to go to the lake campus or to a party were turn ed down with the re- sponse, Sorry, not today.

Labs 219 Computers create curiosity For curious people, the computer is a complex puzzle. Given the curious nature of the aver- age Davidsonian. Hunter Monroe ' s char- acterization of the computer accounts for the tremendous student interest and use of the PRIME computer system. With the cooperative efforts of the PRIME Users Group (PUG), Hansford Epes and the Computer Services Center, the Davidson student is using the computer facilities more frequently and effectively. Under the aegis of Bill Appleton and Monroe, PUG has provided a library of computer programs and has expressed the students ' viewpoints to the computer center. PUG has compiled a menu of Da- vidson-originated, student-written pro- grams for papers, instructions and games. The PUG members are dedicated to making the system easier for students to use. Available within the PUG Master Menu are programs that check for spell- ing errors, count the number of words in a paper and list commands for paper lay- out. Probably the most popular PUG ser- vice is its varied assortment of games and amusements. One may choose from about 20 games, including Star Trek, [oust, or the latest sensation, Video Pinball. By exposing students to the un- puzzling aspects of computers through games, PUG hopes to channel student use toward more academic applications. The computer facilities are heavily employed by students in writing papers, but eventually they should be utilized in all facets of the curriculum. Papers are composed while in the editor mode of the PRIME system. The completed pa- pers are runoff and spooled at one of the four computer printers easily acces- sible to students. Monroe said the computer system is well-suited to the college ' s needs. Those needs currently include computer programming in the physical sciences, mathematics and the social sciences. Computer languages like PRIMOS, BA- SIC, PASCAL and SPSS are taught in conjunction with course curriculum of many departments. The Statistical Pack- age for the Social Sciences (SPSS) is ab- solutely essential to research within the empirical sciences of economics, soci- ology and psychology. As students and faculty continue to in- crease their use of the computer, the Honor Code must cover the specific abuses and cheating that can occur solely within the confines of the computing. Hansford Epes has taken an interest in this aspect of the computer facilities and was appointed Coordinator for Aca- demic Computing. Epes and the Com- puter Services Center are pleased by the blossoming student interest in the PRIME system, but realize certain prob- lems will arise. With 32 terminals avail- able to the 750 owners of user files, space and availability could eventually be- come a problem. Epes, Betty Bradley and the Computer Center staff have devoted countless hours and energies to making the computer system comprehensible, accessible and flexible. Responses to the fresh computer use and awareness on campus are enthusias- tic and encouraging. As Monroe noted, The students should be interested in computers because they are, and will continue to be, important in all fields. — Craig Detwei ler COMPUTER OPERATOR BENITA PEACE inven- tories $5000 worth of new terminals in the Comput- er Services Center.

Mix h Ado About Nothing. For the first four weeks of the term the class met in a seminar format two to three times per week, discussing topil s such as Elizabethan drama, dress, stay- ing, music and acting. Each student was assigned a topic to research for a presentation before the class. The class dedicated its last five weeks to blocking and acting, con- structing the set, making costumes and publicizing the play. Much Ado was performed before sellout crowds on May 6 and 8. During the final week of the term the class members fine-tuned journals they had written about the ex- perience. The class spent over 100 hours together in preparation and in performance of the play. In the end the 18 people involved were close as friends and were near-scholars on Much Ado. Classes such as these offer students more than just a textbook rendition of a subject. Other interesting offerings in- clude the theatre departments ' special courses on film (for which students watch movies and write reviews) and New York theatre (which culminates in a trip to New York, where students see Broadway plays). The biology depart- ment offers courses that send students out of the classroom into the field, ex- amining nature. All one has to do is look closely for these special courses in order to find them. By having unique learning ex- periences, students find that there ' s more to academics than sitting in a Chambers classroom facing yet an- other professor ' s lecture. — Jim Reese LANGUAGE CLASSES OFFER INTENSIVE STUDY outside of the classroom as well as infor- mal discussion. Special Courses 223 EXAM truly is a four-letter word They sneak up on you stealthily like animals of prey. They can catch you un- prepared and leave you reeling. What are these dreaded harbingers of evil? Exams, my friend, exams. Self-scheduled exams occur three times during the academic year for a pe- riod of four days each. Depending upon the student ' s level of preparedness, these days can pass with alacrity or they can drag on like the dog days of August. Exams, like epidemics, tend to bring out either the best or the worst in people. They bring out the best in the staffs at the Union and at the Commons. These kind people recognize the many stresses that the student ' s body is under and respond with numerous study breaks, round-the- clock hours and endless pots of coffee. Exams bring out the worst in most stu- dents and professors. Both groups are under a great deal of pressure to per- form. The student must catch up on his reading from the mid-term, contribute his fair share to the GNP at the Xerox machine, and outline, outline, OUT- LINE!! The teacher must sift through the mountains of papers and journals he as- signed at the end of the term, assess oral performances, grade lab reports, and read exams. Obviously, examination time is not the time to impress your visiting friends with the many social and cultural activities of Davidson. If you think there ' s nothing to do during the term, just wait; there ' s less to do during the exam period! Davidson students take themselves very seriously during exams. Stories are told of hard-core studiers holing up in their rooms for 48 hours or more with only their books and their j unk food. (Al- though this example is of the extreme, you get the general idea.) Exams do have their good points: they last only four days, they are self-sched- uled and they are followed by extended breaks. One thing ' s for sure; exams are as inevitable as fleas on a campus dog. And, like fleas, they more often than not leave students scratching their heads. —Catherine Finegan EXAMS AT TIMES INDUCE SLEEP, as junior Jeff Holland discovers during the fall term exam peri- od.

The most prestigious is the Stuart Scholarship, which provides 100% of the actual cost of Davidson. There is a general consensus among the scholars that the pressures of main- taining a 3.0 CPA is minimal; however, the pressures of being a Stuart Scholar is a different matter. Most agree that the heaviest burden is during the freshman year, since one has to deal with the publicity via the brochure, and being introduced as a Stuart Scholar. In addition to this is the normal pressure of being a freshman. Another aspect of the pressure of being a recipient of the award is how to act on the freshman hall. Should I be a nerd, funny, serious, or crazy on the hall? commented one recipient. In conjunction with this, a freshman scholar commented that pressures lie in the image of what Stuart Scholars should be. In reality, this freshman not- ed, all the Stuart Scholars are so differ- ent; they range from bizarre to terribly normal. Fortunately there was also a general agreement that after freshman year the pressures aren ' t as overwhelming. A senior noted that luckily being a Stu- art Scholar is not a terrible label. Eventually people know the scholars for who they are, not what they are. As for pressures of being heavily in- volved in extra-curricular activities, most scholars did not feel they had to do things to live up to the image, though some were not so sure of their motives for getting involved. Finally, a senior expressed his thank- fulness that the directors of the pro- gram are very supportive and very positive. — Dale Withrow CHECKING OVER HIS WORK-STUDY HOURS, Chris Tiernan paid for some of his tuition through a job in the Union. Financial Aid and Scholarships 227 Spencer bids a fond farewell (Taken from The Charlotte Observer.) The Christmas dinner given by the laundry staff, Leland Park ' s boisterous laugh, and the beauty of the campus are just a few of the things retiring President Samuel Spencer Jr. says he ' ll miss when he leaves Davidson to be- come president of the Virginia Founda- tion for Independent Colleges. Spencer will end a 15-year presiden- cy July 1 and turn the college over to an interim president, Frontis W. Johnston, a retired history professor and former dean of the faculty. There are many things about David- son I ' ll miss when I leave, Spencer said. One thing is the beauty of the campus in the early morning — seeing the yellow-green of the trees in the morning light as I walk across campus to my office. Spencer noted that he would miss not only the beauty of the campus but also the beauty of David- son ' s community spirit. Davidson is definitely a caring and concerned community. It ' s one which lets you know you ' ll be missed, he said. When reflecting upon his own un- der-graduate years at Davidson, Spen- cer ' 40 emphasized the lifelong friend- ships he made and the fine examples provided for him by his professors. He noted the many changes the college has undergone since his graduation: inte- gration, co-education, increased en- rollment and computerization, to name a few.

Many probably feel the trustees slip on and off of campus and remain removed from the stu- dents. In reality, they are very much aware of the students and of the school itself. Board of Trustees Chairman Fred Stair said, These folks know the college well, have children on camp- us. They have an interest in the col- lege. It is this interest which is con- sidered along with other factors when someone is nominated by the nominating committee, chaired by John Medlin. There are four categories of trust- ees on the Board, and each undergo different nominating and election procedures as well as range of terms. That range can be two to four years, renewal of two to three times. The first of the four, and the ma- jority, are nominated and elected by the Presbytery of North Carolina. The second, alumni trustees, are elected by ballot from the alumni classes. A third category consists of at-large trustees. They are elected by the Board of Trustees themselves. Then there are the ex-officio trust- ees, who are asked to be on the Board for approximately two years.

The chairmen of these committees in turn comprise the executive com- mittee. As for the purpose of the trustees, Stair stated that their role is to con- sider the purpose of the college as is stated, and to establish policies for the purpose. The major issue the trustees have encountered this year is the search for a new president. Stair said elect- ing a new president is one of the most important decisions trustees make. He noted that the college has been fortunate to have had the lead- ership of President Samuel Spencer for 15 years. On the issue of the faculty deci- sion of changing to the semester sys- tem, Stair said a major concern of the trustees is, Can we deliver quality education? Other concerns center around the new push in the college for global awareness and techno- logical literacy and, at the same time, preserving the classic ingredi- ents of a liberal arts education. — Dale With row ENTERTAINING HER TRUSTEE, B k) Waten ira thai i ampm oni ong lha i| i onvaraation .ii ■!

The Center for Special Studies serves as an umbrella framework for interdisciplinary studies, according to Dr. Louis Ortmayer, the current di- rector. The Carolina Inn, as the Center was once known, first served as lodging for young ladies who visited David- son students. Davidson purchased the inn during the 1940s and there es- tablished the Honors College. Follow- ing several years of architectural res- toration (and after honors programs had been restored to their specific academic departments), the inn be- came the Center for Special Studies in 1973. Throughout its history the Center has adapted to different focal direc- tions. In some years, activities at the Center revolved around a combina- tion of core programs such as public policy, American studies and theater arts. At other times the Center encom- passed what Ortmayer described as a more open, design-your-own-major program without a specific subpolicy. Today the administration has di- rected the Center to have a general focus program in international studies and education although still serving as an umbrella organization for interna- tional studies, explained Ortmayer. The Center, despite proposals to close its doors, has contributed to the education of Davidson students. Pre- meds, for example, add an extra di- mension to their scientific and tech- nological curriculum through inde- pendent study at the Center. Several students have moved from self-de- signed, interdisciplinary majors into practical work experience with busi- ness and consulting firms, and then into law school or graduate school in business. The Audio- Visual Center The Audio-Visual Department is split between the center room on third-floor Chambers and the lan- guage lab. Ruth Pittard, director and the only permanent staff member, controls the supply of all films, equipment and slides to the college faculty. Bring her a picture or photo- graph, and she can make a slide. This year Audio-Visual even handles darkroom work. Only five work- study students are specifically as- signed to the Audio-Visual depart- ment, but about 20 Davidson stu- dents find jobs as projectionists. AN A-V PROBLEM?

Speakers, semi- nars and symposia open to the col- lege-at-large comprise much of this outreach. Of the Center ' s significance, Ort- mayer said, It keeps people open- minded and provides them with a va- riety of skills and approaches [to prob- lems] which, when an opportunity comes along, [enables them] to move into it. — Melissa Jones POLITICS IN THE AIR: Guest lecturer Michael Robinson talks with senior Richard Davis and Dr. Louis Ortmaver. The Center for Special Studies Realizing the value of self-direct- ed study, the Center for Special Studies offers students the opportu- nity to design their own programs and to study independently. The Center faculty advises the students and helps them on their projects. They offer the students a variety of interdisciplinary seminars and tuto- rials. By allowing self-designed ma- jors. the Center provides education- al opportunities for students of many backgrounds, abilities, and interests. The completion of all graduation re- quirements and the writing of a se- nior thesis are required of participat- ing students. :Zi SPRECHEN SIE DEUTSCH?

This ser- vice center became particularly im- portant with the Alfred P. Sloan Foun- dation grant of $250,000, a sum which the college will use to incorporate an understanding of technology into a curriculum that develops leaders. The Computer Center educates facul- ty members in computer terminology, provides a manual of computer oper- ations and unkinks periodic glitches in the system. COMPILING DATA is one of the tasks junior Jeb Benedict is able to perform on the computer ter- minal. DeSieno proud of computer network In the fall of 1981 they began to appear about campus — two on the main floor of the library, one in the 24-hour study room, three in the psychology department. No one seemed sure if the keyboard set in front of a TV screen was a tool or a toy. Two years later, there are now 30 such computer terminals accessible to students scattered throughout the campus. They are almost constantly occupied by students writing term papers, solving mathematical prob- lems or working on projects in eco- nomics. Davidson has finally en- tered the age of the computer. How do students actually benefit from all this space-age technology? Dr. Robert DeSieno, director of the Computer Services Center, esti- mates that 60% of the time students use the terminals to write papers. The terminal can serve the function of editor and run off — often in- correctly called a word processor. The computer can space the words of each line so that the left and right hand margins are exact. Moreover, the computer can delete a line or add a line to a paper even after it is com- pleted. What does this mean to the average English major? He can re- read a draft and change a word or phrase without having to retype the rest of the paper. (Students who have struggled with three or four rough drafts for Dr. Holland can easily ap- preciate the editor and run off.) Occasionally, students have been known to lose a 10 or 20 page paper in the computer (i.e., fail to have it recorded). DeSieno explained that this tragedy can be avoided by sav- ing or logging work each time the screen is filled. This way, one page is the most that can be lost if the termi- nal is cut off. Obviously, the computer system is no small investment. Each terminal 234 ADMINISTRATION EXPLAINING THE VARIOUS PRIME COM- MANDS lo Dr. Spencer, Robert DeSieno dem- onstrates the many uses of the computer sys- tem.

All of the student terminals are connected with the PRIME 750 computer located in the Computer Services Center behind the post of- fice. The 750 is slightly smaller than a compact car and costs $210,000. This computer serves only academic purposes. The administration uses another computer, the PRIME 400. DeSieno is proud of Davidson ' s computer network. He is confident that Davidson is better equipped with computers than any other small college east of the Mississip- pi. And he added that the presence of computers on campus will contin- ue to grow. It is not unreasonable to suggest a growth pattern of 10 or 12 terminals over the next few years. DeSieno predicted also that eventu- ally there will be terminals available to students in the dormitories. — Dick Richards i 1 1 k SAMP1 im.

The name im- plies the culmination of all knowl- edge. Could Plato, Aquinas or Hegel pos- sibly compete with the sage of David- son College? Chalmers is modest. When asked about being a sage, he responded, There is not a word of truth in it. Chalmers may not possess absolute knowledge, but he does know all about history — the history of the U.S. and of Davidson College. He received his Ph.D. in history from Harvard in 1936, and in the same year he became director of the Davidson library with faculty status as a professor of history. Later he received his Master ' s degree in library- science from the University of Chicago. Serving as administrator of the li- brary from 1936-75, Chalmers had of- fices in all three college libraries. The Carnegie Library was built in 1910 as the first official library on campus. In 1941 the Grey Memorial Library opened. Chalmers laughed as he re- membered the book brigade of fac- ulty and students that transported the 50,000 books in Carnegie to Grey. Said Chalmers: They even got the censored material from the bottom of my desk — back then there were books that students were not allowed to use. They passed them down the line along with the bust of Marshall Ney. In 1974 E. H. Little Library opened. Chalmers served one year as director before relinquishing his position to Leland Park. In 1976 he retired as pro- fessor of history. He now is the archi- vist for the library, keeping records on all that happens at Davidson. As a history professor, Chalmers taught a course entitled Social and Intellectual History of the U.S. He nicknamed it Cocktails and Culture DR. LELAND PARK ' S DESK emanates hard work. Park has been director of the library since 1975.

He enjoys talking of his days as a gunnery officer with the Navy, of the books he has written, of Davidson alumni and of history. The sage even revealed the secret of being a profes- sor at Davidson: A professor must keep the students from knowing how little he knows. — Murray Simpson IS CHALMERS DAVIDSON PUTTING THIS LADY on a pedestal, or is he conversing with her on an earthly level?

Little Library is more often prone to being broken by the noise of stu- dents ' chatting. But the library is much more than a place to sleep or talk. Under Director Leland Park and Assistant Director Mary D. Beaty, it holds 270,000 volumes, 75,000 U.S. Government Documents, and 1,500 periodicals. It is the per- fect place in which to finish a re- search paper, to study, or to take an odyssey of the imagination through good fiction. KICK YOUR SHOES OFT AND SITA SPELL.

The Dining Service Under the direction of Carl Pritchard, the Vail Commons prepares and serves meals for approximately 500 students daily. It offers a wide variety of menus, from hearty meat-and-potato fare to vegetarian quiches. The Commons offers a choice of meal plans, 14 meals per week or 19 meals per week. In its pleasant setting students are able to take needed breaks from studying and relax with their friends. W. ' ta Commons offers job training One of the specialties of the Vail Commons is the large numberof stu- dents who work there. During the weekdays, they serve dinner, and over the weekend they take care of brunch. But why stu- dents? How many of them crowd the Commons crew, and how often does each one of them work? Junior Lynne Rogich, student manager of the dining service, had an answer to all these questions: We employ close to 60 students, who work two shifts a week on the aver- age. That ' s about six hours of work a week, a good chance for students to PLACING AN ORDER AT THE COUNTER, a customer at the Union Cafe awaits his ticket stub. 238 Administration AMPLE HELPINGS AKLPKm nil 1 1 ill stu- dent! al ' i ' I lommon! uid unlimited m da an ■vallable THAT WILL BK  1U.

And of course it is also nice for the students who eat here to be served by people they know. The student employees dress neatly in jeans and red and white shirts with a Wildcat cook on them. In groups of six to eight, they serve the main dishes and keep the des- serts, drinks and salad in stock. A student supervisor ensures that the meals go the way they are planned. Bo Tayloe ' 85 was a supervisor winter term. During spring term he worked only at special catering events. This work was, he said, to set up tne lines with food and uten- sils, and to oversee the serving and make sure there was enough food. The dining service takes care of such special events as wedding par- ties, cocktail parties, and the ROTC military ball. In general, three or four of these events are scheduled each week, and the student employ- ees sign up for them voluntarily. Oc- casionally, however, major events such as the dinner after the Don Plott Memorial Concert in January and the Davidson Goes Uptown din- ner required that all students work. Sometimes problems arise with these events, said Rogich, but we try to work around them as much as we can. The Davidson Goes Up- town dinner on Feb. 15, for which some of the students had to work six hours in a row just before exams, unfortunately led to problems with several students. As Tayloe said, Normally there are no conflicts with catering events. You can choose a time that doesn ' t give any prob- lems with academics. I really en- joyed being a supervisor, he contin- ued, and it gave me a good opportu- nity to improve my managingskills. — Michael Leezenberg The Registrar ' s Office The Registrar, Richard Burts, handles class registration, transferral of credits and graduation exercises.

The Athletic Department Providing the opportunity for students to participate in intercollegiate, club and intramural sports, the Athletic Department is supervised by Ed Farrell, athletic director and head football coach. Located in Johnston Gym, the department also handles ticket sales to college sports events, and it coordinates physical education classes for students. Ed Farrell Major and minor sports. A bigger budget. Better facilities. Athletic scholarships. These are just a few of the issues that face the athletic depart- ment. Everyone seems to have his own opinion. Probably the most en- lightened critic, however, is Ed Far- rell, athletic director and head foot- ball coach. Farrell has what he thinks is a clear, reasonable philosophy about operating the athletic depart- ment. Goals of the department: Farrell has two primary goals that may be at odds with each other, yet their attain- ment may produce an outstanding program. First, Farrell desires to offer as varied a program of athletic activi- ties as finances and facilities allow. Secondly, he wants to run a quality program. Farrell commented that it is important to make sure what you do is done well. Major and minor sports: Farrell is quick to point out that the terms ma- jor and minor are irrelevant. A ten- nis player would consider his sport just as important as a basketball play- er. It is better to make the distinction between revenue and non-revenue sports instead of major and minor ones, said Farrell. In order to run a quality program, an athletic director needs funds that are divided among the revenue and non-revenue sports. Farrell delegates these funds by priorities. Many issues are weighed in deciding how much money to budget for a particular sport. Public relations value, alumni-media appeal, number of students able to participate in the sport, morale value for attracting future students and rev- enue intake are all considered when budgeted money is divided among the various sports. Farrell added, It is not that non- revenue sports lack importance or that the department is not interested in them. These criteria as well as policies dictated by the Board of Trustees di- rect much of the action I must take . . . You cannot please everyone, and when there is a controversy, someone will get upset.

The present post office will be the future location of the Student Store (in August 1984, when the post office will be relocated in downtown Da- vidson). Many of the m embers of the faculty and administration, said col- lege Business Manager Bob Currie, feel that the educational enterprise would benefit if the store expanded to stock ' browsing books ' . The town of Davidson would benefit as well with increase in volume.

The Laundry Service The College Laundry Service, headed by Frances Beaver, is re- sponsible for washing the clothes of the students who care to make the most of the mandatory $200 laundry fee charged in the comprehensive fee. Those students who are frus- trated with the loss of buttons, dol- lars and shirts, often search for alter- natives to the Laundry Service. Their quest drives them to the wash- ing machines in Watts and Little dor- mitories, to the dreadful expedient of hanging wash outside a window to dry, or even to the laundering em- porium in Sadler Square. Wherever such laundry hangouts are to be found, there are students absorbing themselves in study or talk as their clothes tumble in the wash cycle. According to many students who take on the quest, one must be ready to sacrifice $200 to the Laun- dry Service.

Currie also pointed out that the fees paid by students constitute over 85 ' i of the laundry ' s income, and that the fee of $200 has remained fairly stable over the past years. When Davidson first went coeduca- tional, the laundry contemplated not charging the females for services be- cause it was assumed that they would want to do their own laundry. The men threatened to take the case to court and, as a result, the idea was rapidly dropped.

Should the point be reached where the college laundry no longer meets the needs of the majority of students, a two-year period to wind down the op- eration would be necessary. — Irish Lennon The Guest House Comfort and elegance are the rule at the Davidson College Guest House.

Though it houses several female students on a permanent basis, the Guest House proper is not for gener- al student use. Nevertheless, some enterprising students and their sweethearts have utilized it over- night for purposes other than sleep- ing.

Comptroller counts Davidson ' s The comprehensive fee of $7,700 for a year at Davidson has grown con- siderably since 1850, when the total cost was $96; tuition was $30, room rent was $4, servant hire (?!) was $2 and board was an oppressive $60. According to the Comptroller ' s Re- port to the Trustees, $5,225 of the pre- sent fee is directed toward tuition. The purpose of the remaining $2,475 is pri- marily for room, board, laundry ser- vice and activity fees. But what about the $5,225? First, it should be noted that this tu- ition constitutes only 51% of the Col- lege ' s revenues. The other principal sources of revenues are government grants, private grants and gifts, en- dowment and trust income. Total expenditures for the 1981- 1982 school year which these rev- enues must cover is $11,588,593. Da- vidson ' s most weighty expenditure is instruction and departmental re- search. This category comprises over 37% of the total expenditures. The second largest cost is the general in- stitutional expense, a broad category including such items as insurance, le- gal expenses, dues to the American Association of Colleges and Universi- ties, employee training, the switch- board, and, of course, Coffee and Cokes. Third in costs is the operation and maintenance of the physical plant. Student aid is the fourth largest expense. Organized activities related to educational departments is a close fifth, followed by student services. This category includes the expendi- tures of the Student Union, the Ca- reers Office and the Dean of Students Office. Bringing up the rear are the expenses of the library and the gener- al administration. Specific costs as percentages of the total educational expenditures are as follows: Instruction and departmental research 37.32% General institutional expense 14.32% Operation and maintenance of physical plant 14.747r Student aid 8.63% Organized activities related to educational departments 7.91% Student services 7.65% Library 5.65% General administration 3.28% These figures are derived from the 1981 Financial Report to the President and Trustees of the College. When lamenting the monstrous cost of a Davidson education, students should remember that tuition covers only half of the total expenditures. The cost would be twice as high without the endowment in- come, and government and private grants. —Dick Richards ROBERT DAVIDSON AND JOYCE H1GHT com- pare notes in the Comptroller ' s Office. 246 ADMINISTRATION The Office of Personnel and Administrative Services blessings lb many students, the I rfflce oi Personnel and Administrative Ser- vices Is .1 Faceless entity which docs nothing more than handle the per- sonnel who make Davidson College iiprii its doors every morning.

I would not be doing it if I didn ' t. Grover Meetze, director of the physical plant, heads the custodial staff of the Chambers building. He is assisted by the staff supervisor, Junior Barker. Under Barker ' s direction, every hallway, classroom and bathroom of Chambers gets a daily cleaning. This staff is also responsible for the clean- ing of auditoriums and offices of the building. The custodians of the Student Union are Fred Deese and Michael Withers. They are responsible for cleaning the rooms of all four floors of the Union, with the exception of the 900 Room, which is cleaned by work- study students. Deese and Withers empty all of the trash, sweep the floors and steps, and mop the Union from stem to stern. Not only do they clean the rooms of the Union open to the public, but they are also expected to clean the numerous offices and lounges of the building. A big job, to say the least. When this fact was pointed out to Deese, however, he said, I ' m not a person who believes in grumbling. I just do the job. — Catherine Finegan PHYSICAL PLANT WORKERS sling din as part of the overall effort to beautify the campus.

THE DON PLOTT MEMORIAL CONCERT was a major fund-raising effort of the Development Of- fice this vear. The Development Office The Development Office has many varied avenues for raising money from corporations, foundations, alumni and friends. The Communications Office, Alumni Affairs Office, Living Endowment Office and Wildcat Club also play an integral part in fund- raising. Jack Powers, the vice-president for development, heads the department. Since he took office in 1981, he has increased the annual giving from 3.8 million to 6 million. 250 ADMINISTRATION ( I NM( ! Ml sic l)| TOM LORI .. i IAV .in attention ol ihi I menl Ifl Keeping the college well-endowed Running to and from classes in Chambers, students often pass by the Development wing without real- izing how vital this department ' s work is to their education. The cost of providing a quality col- lege education unfortunately rises every year. And it is generally known that the students ' tuition covers only a fraction of the expense of an education. Like all indepen- dent colleges, Davidson relies heav- ily upon private gifts and grants for financial support. Vice-President for Development Jack Powers explained that there are four main branches of the Develop- ment Office. One of the most impor- tant is the Office of Constituent Pro- grams, headed by Lee Willingham. As the name implies, this depart- ment is responsible for coordinating the activities of the college with var- ious outside constituencies. It solic- its annual support from specific groups of benefactors such as alum- ni and parents. Constituent Pro- grams also includes community and church relations and the Alumni Af- fairs Office. The Resource Development THE SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN, |ack Pow- ers leads an impressive fund-raising effort. MONEY RAISED FOR DAVIDSON helps to pay for upkeep of the grounds as well as for educational expenses. branch, directed by Julius Melton, oversees all capital fund-raising pro- grams, including gifts to endow- ment, gifts for special building projects, deferred gifts, gifts of life insurance and gifts in kind. The Re- source Development Office is the backbone of the 1987 Program — a long term fund-raising project cul- minating with Davidson ' s 150th an- niversary. Also included under Develop- ment is the Communications Of- fice, which is directed by John Slater. The Communications Office publishes the directory, the college catalog Update, the Annual Report and admissions brochures. VVDAVis also a part of the Communications Office. The fourth department asso- ciated with the Development Office is the Wildcat Club, which, of course, helps support all of David- son ' s team sports. The combined receipts of the De- velopment Office totaled $6 million for 1982. As President Spencer ex- plained, the impressive work of the Development Office and particular- ly the 1987 Program enables David- son to maintain our enviable record of service, which is the college ' s avowed purpose and expressed goal. — Dick Richards Development 251 The Wild Juggler For Bill Giduz, an average day in the Communications Office in- cludes a large amount of telephone answering. He doesn ' t mind. It ' s always sort of exciting, ' cause you never know who could be on the other end, he said. Everyday work also encompasses the creation of brochures for the Ad- missions Office — writing, editing, designing, typesetting, waxing, and pasting — and the collection and cir- culation of campus news stories. Giduz began this job in 1980, after working for Southern Bell in Atlan- ta. He has followed no master plan in making career decisions — My ca- reer has been accidental all the way, he said. Davidson is his alma mater — he graduated in 1974 as a history major ( for lack of anything else to major in ) and did graduate work in jour- nalism at Columbia University. Giduz, a man of many interests and activities, is a fledgling organ- ic gardener, a Presbyterian sort of, and an accomplished photographer. He is not a big reader. As he jok- ingly put it, I ' m a physical rather than mental giant. He regularly plays basketball and racketball, lifts weights, and jogs. Giduz is known, however, for a more unusual activity. Mention his name to a group of students, and most will identify him as the tall man that juggles. Giduz has been a juggler since his older brother taught him the art. My brother walked in the house juggling . . . Five minutes later I was juggling, too, he recalled. His involvement in the hobby is more serious than most people real- ize. Since 1979 Giduz has served as the news editor of Juggler ' s World, a magazine published six times a year by the International Jugglers Associ- ation (IJA), an organization with 2000 members in 28 different coun- tries. Giduz enjoys IJA ( a nice fraterni- ty of people ). His position as editor of Juggler ' s World also gives him a special sense of satisfaction and con- trol, like being at the center of a big network of people with a similar in- terest. The magazine is a creative chal- lenge for Giduz. He would like to make a career of the job; he feels that maybe someday such a chance will come along. Related to Giduz ' s juggling is his joggling — simultaneous juggling and jogging. The practice is common among jugglers, since, as Giduz said, the two activities go together like peaches and cream. He joggled through the 1983 10K Charlotte Mar- athon in 45 minutes — without a drop. The tall man that juggles , and Communications Office Walking down first Chambers on any weekday between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m., students see constant activity in the three rooms making up the Com- munications Office. John Slater dir- ects the activities, which include cov- ering most events of the college in writing and on film. The staff also handles the writing of news releases for outside publications, and it pro- duces several college publications. In the office is the official college photo- graphic record; out of the office are clippings about Davidson from news- papers. Students often are found out- side of the office reading about fellow students, professors or college events.

Sponsored by funds from the college and by donations, the station is locat- ed in the basement of the Union. WDAV employs students to work both on the air as announcers and behind the scenes in the public affairs office. The station features classical music during the day and jazz and alterna- tive music after 10 p.m. each night. DAV ANNOUNCER ANNE WRIGHT mans the controls while on the air in the radio station. DURING THE PHONATHON, a variety of volun- teers helped take donations from friends of WDAV. Radiothon While rock, funk and easy listen- ing fans are attracted to such stations as WBCY, -PEG, and -EZC, the only station for real classical lovers is Da- vidson ' s own radio for the arts, WDAV. Although not affiliated with Na- tional Public Radio, WDAV is public radio in the truest sense of the word: it is a non-commercial, listener-sup- ported station committed to provid- ing Piedmont listeners with quality classical programming. Approximately one-third of the station ' s budget comes from the Col- lege, but the rest is made up through contributions from individual mem- bers and underwriters rather than from federal grants. This is unusual for a public radio station, said Sta- tion Manager John Clark. A large number of these individ- ual contributions were made this year during CELEBRATION ' 82, WDAV ' s fourth annual, on-air fund- raiser held during the week of No- vember 28. During this week-long radiothon, microphones and other equipment were moved from the small base- ment station to the larger Morrison Room; five telephones were in- stalled (complete with enough vol- unteers to man them 18 hours a day); special music was programmed; and guest artists were invited to perform live concerts. In addition, New York Philharmonic Conductor Zubin Mehta acted as honorary chairman. Over 200 volunteers from the campus and community answered phones, recorded pledges and per- formed other odd jobs during the ra- diothon. Campaign Chairman Pam Stephenson reported that an infor- mal poll identified over 45 profes- sions that were represented during the week — everything from teacher to lawyer, craftsman to mayor. The dedication of these volun- teers paid off when the station ' s $70,000 goal was exceeded on Sun., Dec. 5, the last day of the pledge campaign. This was, indeed, reason to celebrate.

Another goal of the Club is to promote in the commu- nity a positive image of the college. For example, the Wildcat Club pro- vided the limousine for Zubin Mehta during his stay in the area.

In his position as overseer of the Admissions Office, Griffith directs student interviews and handles re- cruiting trips. Griffith has also revital- ized the Student Admissions Team and has started the Davidson Alumni Program. This admissions job is one of utmost importance; it requires a di- rector and a staff of people with di- verse tastes and interests and concern for the prospective student. With their help, Davidson attracts and ad- mits some of the finest students in the nation. A DIRECTING SIGN points the incoming fresh- men to the Union, where they will receive their IDs and laundry bundles. Students used in In late September students, eager- ly anticipating notes from friends or family, instead found letters that had traveled all the way across Main St. from the Admissions and Financial Aid Office. The enclosed memo invited stu- dents to participate in an interview as part of a three-year project sup- ported by a grant from the Fund for the Improvement of Post-Secondary Education, a branch of the Federal Department of Education. So, a couple of months later, phones began ringing in dorm rooms as interviewers called interviewees to schedule the interviews. Upon ar- riving at the appointed site at the ap- pointed time, students (inter- viewees) met housewives and psy- chology majors (interviewers), and discussed before a tape recorder earth-shaking educational issues such as research papers of the hypo- thetical Susan and Mary and the possibility that beings from outer- space built temples and pyramids in the ancient world. Confused? So was a freshman in- terviewee, who also happened to be a member of the Quips and Cranks staff in search of an article. So, this student (now interviewer) set up an interview with Dr. John V. Griffith, director of the project and admis- sions director (interviewee), to dis- cuss the project. Griffith explained that a random sample of freshmen and a select group of seniors and faculty were questioned about Susan and Mary and the pyramids to investigate ways of understanding students ' readiness to undertake certain types of educational challenges based on a particular theoretical perspective. The interviews are ways of assess- ing students ' epistemological view- points, learning behaviors and learning environment preferences — the students ' learning develop- ment levels. According to Griffith, If someone is in the early stages of this type of development, knowledge is viewed as being made up simply of facts, and that there really are right answers to everything to be discovered through hard work. Later in the develop- ment, there is a realization that there are a number of possible an- swers to questions, but that at some point [one] may discover if they are true. And then beyond that comes the further discovery that there may not be any right answers to any- thing. Now, he continued, if someone who is in the early stages of develop- ment is put into a situation where they are asked to do ... learning tasks that are appropriate to the higher stages of development, they simply can ' t do them . . . It ' s not a matter of intelligence, but it ' s a mat- ter of development. The purpose of the project is to discover ways of assessing learning development and to incorporate this assessment into the academic advis- ing procedures and curricular struc- tures of Davidson and other small 256 ADMINISTRATION testing liberal arts colleges. Griffith does not foresee any major changes ill what lie termed .i mar- velous advising process and an ex- tremely strung curriculum, bu1 at- lirmed that it ' s always important to look at the impact of our advising and of our curriculum on students . The learning level assessment can be used as an admissions tool, for in some settings it ' s a very good predic- tor of success, depending upon the type of challenge that a student ' s go- ing to meet in the classroom. Insofar as designing curriculum, the assessment can assist the college administration in presenting a mix- ture of lecture, discussion, seminar and independent study classroom formats designed to challenge stu- dents on different learning levels. Students, guided by their academic advisors, could avoid frustrating courses and enroll in those that would develop their learning levels. Griffith is enthusiastic about the project and about the impact that Davidson has upon students ' levels of learning. He predicted that at some point what occurs is an episte- mological shift where [a student] can pull facts together and can begin to generate some ideas of [his] own. What ' s scary, he said, is that as you go through the development there ' s a feeling that you lose all of those things that are absolutes and that you always thought were true. But what you find at the other end is that you sort of re-establish those, but you re-establish them based on investigation. It ' s that real maturing process, he continued, of becoming an adult and believing in things, learning things and making committments. — Melissa Jones PROSPECTIVE STUDENT?

ALL THAT PIZAZZ! C. Shaw Smith performs mag- T- - -J v- - ic on stage as well as in the Union, where he has been director for 30 vears. Union President Mike Goode and Social Vice-President Danny Waddill interviewed C. Shaw Smith one win- ter afternoon, shortly after Smith an- nounced that he would retire at the end of the school year. Smith has served as Union Director for 30 years, the same number of years the Union has been in existence. The following are excerpts from the interview: Mike: I ' ll just try to loosen you up with a few short answer ques- tions. Mr. Smith, how old are you now? Shaw: Now? I ' m 60-plus. Dan: Plus What? S: Plus six. M: So you ' re 66. S: I think that ' s right. I ' ll check with my wife. How old were you when you became union director? Much earlier. I came here in ' 52, fall of ' 52. As union director? Sure. There was nowhere to go. When I came here I was up al- ready. So you started at the top? I didn ' t know that at the time, but I did. You don ' t want to know the reason why I was di- rector first? No. How much do you weigh now? About what I did then. About 190-some . . . How much did you weigh in 1952 when you first came here? 190. I haven ' t really developed at all since I ' ve been here. Thir- ty years of stagnant time. I want you to know that we have pictures of you when you first came here. I don ' t want you to falsify any of this informa- tion. Well, maybe it was a little less than that. To what do you attribute your success? My success? Being well-round- ed. Started out that way. Who hired you? Dr. Cunningham; he was al- ready in his dotage. No, do you know how I got the job? Nobody else wanted it! Why did you want it? Because I knew it was a good thing. Dr. Martin said it right: he said it was a bit unusual to have a magician at Davidson, and here at a church-related school, and all those tricks and that kind of thine; he said, don ' t worry, it ' ll take a magician to live on what we ' re gonna pay him.

M: Tell us about ACl-1 S: ACL ' -l is the Association of Col- lege Unions. It is the first orga- nization we belonged to. I heard about it before I came to David- son. It was small then, and a great group of people. D: How old is the Union here at Davidson as compared to other schools? S: Ours was one of the first little unions, and when I first got into the Union Association, one of the reasons I got so much visi- bilitv was that I represented a small campus with some high ideals. It was a place of charac- ter. The idea was to have a union to help people grow. Dr. Cunningham was the one who understood that. He was look- ing for the Union idea, this D: sense of community, a sense of relationship of people outside of the formal structure of the S: class. And one of the reasons that he said that he wanted this D: kind of program was that too many people came out of Da- vidson and became preachers S: and servants of the church, but did not. perhaps, feel socially D: good about themselves. He said, I want people who leave David- M: son to have the feeling that they belong to the community at large and not just a segment of S: it. And as I thought about that over the years, there is no ques- tion about the fact that that ' s D: why the Union got a good start. D: What sorts of honors have you S: won over the years?

My fob is to wati h other people work, i Ian we quote you on that 7 No. YOU know, in all serious- ness, the lirst job that I ever had was teaching English in a mili- tary school. Before the eai was out Davidson invited me back to be the YMCA secretary, which was in those days like the chaplain, but you didn ' t have to r e a preacher. I came and stayed three years because the war was on and they couldn ' t get anybody for that third year, after my two years were up. But it was then that I really got to know Davidson and some ideals that I had just had clarified while I was a student here. Good gracious! I really spent three years enjoying this place and the students and the faculty as I had always wanted to as a student, and I never had time, because I was a student. And then I had to go off and win the war. . . and came back nine years later and have been doing the same thing ever since, just living with the people and en- joying them. Did you have a staff with you when you went off to war, or anvbodv helping vou? A staff? ' Well, I had an old bicy- cle. I guess we don ' t have time to hear how you won the war with just a bicycle. Well, I had always done little tricks along the way and . . . Like I said, we don ' t have time to hear about it. Shaw, you ' ve mentioned going around the world during the war doing camp shows . . . USO camp shows. Bob Hope and I, vou ' ve heard about him, I ' m telling you about me. Does he work in a Union some- where? He ' d like to. If he knew how much fun it is, he ' d do it.

I ' m C.8H n wn-THi Kins- M ' l A in the Conversation I ' m sure I ' ve got some somewhere. M: The question still stands, why are you retiring? S: The truth is ... uh ... I had not gotten around to it before. M: So it ' s iust something you want to do before you have to quit working? S: Yea. I wanted to work, and I never quite got around to that. And I wanted good health, and I never got around to that. I want- ed a familv. Now I got around to that. M: Does that show vour priorities? S: Absolutely! D: So you ' re saying you ' re retiring when you have never worked Isn ' t that like saying that a rock is dead? S: Well, I think that ' s something you could say. M: i mean, if you are retiring from not working, does that mean you ' re going to start working now? S: No, it just means that I ' m going to do what I ' ve always done in just another place.

This year, under the direction of Bill Bolding and assistant L. C. Giduz, the office sponsored outdoors trips to the mountains and to the ocean. They select resident advisors for dormitories and off-campus houses, and provide the RAs with leadership training. Probably the most demanding job in the office is handling the lottery for students selecting to live in campus housing. Housing There comes that time of year when the entire campus echoes with con- versations about numbers. It has noth- ing to do with math courses, but rather the event that determines what un- lucky person will have to settle for building a shack in the woods in which to live during the school year. Yes, it ' s the dreaded housing lottery. Although confusion usually is an in- tegral part of the lottery, this year it ran smoothly for both students and the housing staff. Housing Director Bill Bolding said that the situation was excellent compared with previous years at the end of the lottery a nd that everything looked rosy. If anything, he commented, the picture changed because more fresh- women will be enrolled next year. More women than men received perimeter housing for the coming year.

No way! I ' m just a little confused. How often have depressed, anorexic, failing or overly-anxious students expressed such fear of visiting Barbara Ballard, John Wheeler or Amelia Dockery in the basement of the Student Union. There ' s no shame in needing some- one to listen. And, besides, the visits are confi- dential. No letters are written to the dean of students, and no psychologi- cal profiles are included with school records. Though both the dean of students office and the counselors office have the same goal for the growth and well-being of each indi- vidual, very little inter-communica- tion exists.

Welsh is most noted for his compositions. A prolific and diverse composer, he has composed ,i full sym- phony, two one-act operas, two concer- tos, two organ sonatas, seven large canta- tas and oratorios and numerous other works for organ, as well as chamber mu- sic and religious choral works. Welsh re- mains busy fulfilling commissions for new compositions, the most recent being an organ work to commemorate his grand-uncle, a prominent musician in Cincinnati. Welsh began his professional career at the age of eight after winning a scholar- ship to sing in the Church of Our Savior Men and Boys Choir in Cincinnati and later in the St. Paul ' s Episcopal Men and Boys Choir in Baltimore. His piano teacher recognized him as a child prodi- gy and petitioned his parents to remove him from school. The teacher wanted to prepare Welsh for his New York debut as a concert pianist at the age of 14. His parents, however, felt he should com- plete his high school education in the tra- ditional manner. At the age of 17 he simultaneously en- tered the Peabody Conservatory of Mu- sic on a music scholarship and Johns Hopkins University on an academic scholarship. In 1953 he received a B.A. in music and the highly coveted Artist ' s Di- ploma. Two years later her received a master of music degree from Peabody. While at Peabody he served as president of the student body and president of the Young Composers League. He also main- tained part-time jobs as organist and choirmaster in local Baltimore churches. Welsh ' s major artistic outlet is compo- sition. At the age of seven, his grandfa- ther encouraged him to pursue composi- tion after hearing his first hymn. While in college he regularly traveled from Balti- more to New York to study with Henry Cowell, the noted 20th-century compos- ••i with whom leorge ' rerahwin sru In the spring of 1 ' ijt) the international- ly known composei and organist lean Langlais introduced him to Nadia Bou- langer, who trained modern composers such as a, nmi t Sopeland, Waltei I .mil Virgil Thompson, Welsh said. She (Boulangerj thought I was to much influenced l thi mans, especially Hindemith, whili ty.i.s Seibei [anothei composition teach- er) thought that my music sounded too French.

Welsh regards them as having a life of their own. In talking about his yet to be completed second Organ Sonata, he re- alized it is becoming too large for organ and perhaps will evolve into his third symphony. Other interests such as research have taken Welsh across Europe and even to East Germany, where he studied antique European organs. There he was able to validate or invalidate current ideas about how 16th, 17th and 18th-century music should sound and be played. Welsh ' s recent scholarly research in the U.S. has led to the publication of the de- finitive article on Charles Patchable, or- ganist and choirmaster in Charleston, S.C., and son of Johann Pachelbel. For other artistic expression Welsh has written fiction, including poetry, short stories, five plays and six novels. His plays have been performed by amateur acting companies at Cornell University, Baltimore and Davidson. Several Welsh festivals in which his compositions comprised an entire week- end of performances have been held throughout the East. In 1974 he was of- fered the position of organist and choir- master at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City. He declined this prestigious position to remain in Da- vidson where his many interests could continue. Welsh said. Davidson embodies the idea of what liberal arts is all about, and I consider myself a liberal arts type of per- son. Here I ' m more at home than in a strictly musical type of environment, so here ' s where I choose to stay. —Russell G. Snipes Jr. Fine Arts 265 Ross focuses on development Any survivor of Economics 103 can tell you that Dr. Clark Ross believes in a rig- orous and fast-paced study of economics. One of the newest additions to the eco- nomics department, Ross demands wholehearted devotion to economic the- ory. Ross himself is dedicated to the pursuit of solutions to economic problems. Be- fore coming to Davidson, he worked for the University of Michigan in West Afri- ca researching problems of economic de- velopment. He has worked extensively for the United States Government, the United Nations and other development agencies. His primary area of interest is in the Sahel countries, a group of low income nations in West Africa, including the Re- publics of Mali and Upper Volta. Ross focused on their problems in ag- ricultural development, particularly poor resources, inhospitable climate, and the expanding Sahara Desert. According to Ross, the goal of the de- velopment agencies is to elevate the Sa- hel nations to a level of food grain self- sufficiency at which they will not de- pend on foreign aid. This goal requires the input of trained economists such as Ross. By necessity he has learned to speak French fluently while working with the French-speaking West Africans. In addition to the development of West Africa, Ross has concentrated on serious problems closer to home. Working with the Commission on the Future of North Carolina, Ross researched the problem of youth unemployment with its possible ramifications, on crime and drug abuse. A transplanted Yankee from Glouces- ter, Mass., Ross now lives on Lake Nor- man. When he is not teaching and re- searching, his hobbies include tennis and racquetball. He was attracted to Da- vidson by the meaningful interaction within the entire college community. — Dick Richards CLARK G. ROSS, Assistant Professor of Econo- mics.

Ph.D. (Virginia Approximately LO years ago Dra Don ikl Kimmel and Cynthia and David Grant started a Beries oi experiments al Davidson dealing with the web building behavior and ecology ol the golden silk spider, Nephilia clavipes. Recently, the work has concentrated upon young spi- ders ' orientation with respect to gravity, and what, if any, related neurological changes occurred two weeks after the spiders molt. Since that experiment, Kimmel has pursued further research for scientific data support of a neurological basis for orientation. Interestingly, Kimmel was able to lure a budding biology major, Chris Hum- phreys, to assist in his research. Motivat- ed by his initial research, Humphreys then produced a winning grant proposal to pursue independent research. Humphreys became interested in the project while taking Kimmel ' s Biology 31 class as a freshman in the winter of 1981 . Kimmel offered the opportunity for any student to assist him in various scientific research. In the spring term of 1981, Humphreys took Biology 295 to do independent re- search. He had proposed to Kimmel an alternate hypothesis to the orientation of the spider on its web. It may be that their claws subjected them to hang head down, not any particular neurological function. Kimmel saw this as a plausible reason; however, Davidson lacked the facilities to observe something as small as a spider ' s claw. Humphreys said: I was kidding when I proposed to use a scanning electron mi- croscope, but Kimmel took me seriously. Thus Kimmel arranged for him to use the facilities at Bowman Gray Medical School in Winston-Salem. The experiment proved that it was not the claws that subjected the spider ' s gravitational orientation. This supported a continuance of locating a neurological center for web orientation. Humphreys wrote a grant proposal illustrating his current findings and proposed a search for further neurological reasons. This grant proposal was entitled The Change in Attitude with Respect to Gravity of Nephila clavipes. He sent the proposal to the North Carolina Acad- emy of Science Inc (NCAS)tobe consid- ered H - won the John Varborough Me- morial Undergraduate Research Gr ant .mil received $90 Kimmt:l remarked ih.it he believes that Humphreys was the first freshman cv r to win such a grant at Davidson. With the grant in hand, Humphreys ' re- search was to take effect that summer and continue through the winter term of 1982-83. During the summer he pored over lit- erature relating neurological experi- ments on the Nephila clavipes and con- tinued through the fall. During fall term he also began to devise an experiment to see how the spider would respond if its web was upside-down — it would con- tinue to orient itself either toward the gravitational pull or in accordance with the web. Humphreys designed and constructed a machine that would turn the web one rotation every half-hour. This would en- able him to see the spider ' s response to being upside-down. Promising results came out of this experiment; Humphreys discovered that there seems to be a blueprint for the web in the spider ' s mind. Gravity only serves as a reference point for the blueprint. Apparently once the spider has laid its three essential foundation lines, called the Y-founda- tion, it ignores the gravitational pull and pursues to build its web according to that Y. This lends support for a neurological structure to maintain the blueprint. As a part of the grant award, Hum- phreys presented his results at the annu- al NCAS meeting at Chapel Hill. There he won first place in his category. He received a plaque, and his paper will be published in the NCAS ' s magazine, enti- tled Cancas. Humphreys expects to continue his re- search with the Nephila clavipes until he graduates. His next project will be to locate the gravity sensors and trace the neurons from these sensors up to their origin in the brain. Humphreys said of the project ' s suc- cess: I wouldn ' t be doing any of this if it weren ' t for Dr. Kimmel. —Dale Withrow Biology and Physics 269 JAMES MONROE FREDERICKSEN, Professor of Chemistry. B.S. (Richmond). Ph.D. (Virginia] Liberal arts courses add to pre-med major What do history, religion, political sci- ence, physics, chemistry and biology ma- jors have in common? They can all apply to medical school, and at Davidson many of them do. Although many majors can be supple- mented with the science courses re- quired for medical school entrance, there exists a pre-med major that pre- pares the aspiring doctor for medicine. The pre-med major offers a broader background with more electives. It de- velops breadth as well as depth, said Dr. James Fredericksen, chairman of the pre-med department. Included in the major are Pre-med 295 and 297, courses in which the student gains practical ex- perience at Lowrance Hospital in Mooresville or in a health care facility in Charlotte. Because the pre-med program only prepares the student for medical school, it has been criticized for uselessness to those who are not accepted. Fredericksen defended the program: The same consequence applies to chemistry or other majors. If you don ' t get into chemistry graduate school, then where are you? The application process to medical school resembles the undergraduate pro- cedure. However, the American Medical College Admission Service (AMCAS) simplifies the process. All colleges that are members of AMCAS receive one standard application completed by the prospective student. If interested, the school will send a supplementary form for further information. Medical col- leges not using the AMCAS require their own applications. Entrance criteria include an interview, Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) scores, a transcript and a recommenda- tion submitted by the pre-med commit- tee of the undergraduate college. The pre-med department at Davidson attempts to prepare students for the ap- plication process. As freshmen and sophomores, pre- meds had meetings to talk about the pro- fession, said John Stipp, a senior pre- med. Juniors start to get recommenda- tions from the pre-med committee. There is a practice interview with two professors and one student during your junior year. Pre-med colloquiums (not meant only for pre-med majors) bring in faculty members of medical schools to discuss their programs or some part of what we can expect — like the pressure. Also, prof essors give information about MCAT preparation courses, but there isn ' t any- thing like that taught here. According to Fredericksen, about 75% of the 50 to 60 applicants from Davidson, as well as roughly 12 alumni, are accept- ed into medical school each year. This figure places Davidson in the top 50 schools in the country for success with medical college admissions. The MCAT average is above the national mean, though Fredericksen is hesitant about the test ' s importance. This test doesn ' t measure integrity or compassion, things that deal with the social aspect of the profession, he said. According to Fredericksen, most Da- vidson alumni finish medical school in the upper quarter of their classes. There are two parts of medical school: the textbook stage, he said, and the clinical stage. We usually come into our own in the clinical stage because the liberal arts background makes good peo- ple as well as good doctors. —Rob Vaughn WILLIAM RODGER NUTT, Associate Professor of Chemistry.

People do not look kindly upon political science being called poli- slide anymore, evidence that the major has been gaining respect over the past few years. It ' s still a good joke, but a joke is all. Many remember when the poli-slide tag fit, however. Most blame some unin- spiring faculty members for the image: Freshman year when I got ready to take a certain political science course, one senior recalled, some people told me to take it because it was slack and others advised me not to take it because it was slack.

It gave me a very bad first impression of the department, and it was two years before I would take another. What is bringing these and other stu- dents back to the political science de- partment is the enthusiastic and compe- tent group of professors that the depart- ment now boasts. Professor Brian Shaw, newest addition to the department, said that this is what attracted him most as he was considering a position at Davidson. The faculty was sharp, well-read and enthusiastic. There was a definite rap- port, he recalled. As a result of his visit, he was anxious to come here. Dr. Tom Kazee agreed with Shaw ' s as- sessment: I ' ve never seen a department with this degree of closeness. There is definitely an enthusiasm and a committ- ment to teaching. Their enthusiasm spills over into their classes, and as a result students are now being attracted not for their slackness but for their substance. The greatest testimony to this fact is that students now actually want to take political theory at 8 a.m. winter term! —Tracy Thompson Militcr Science and Political Science 273 Education program passes Hight ' s test Since 1962 Dr. William Hight Jr. has headed Davidson ' s teacher certification program. Davidson students typically lead the state in scores on the National Teachers ' Exam. According to Hight, Most students get [teaching] jobs, though they may have to wait a year. This year there were nine students in- volved in the program. During the winter term, Diane King and Garry Sullivan taught at South Iredell County High School, while Shannon Hamilton, Rusty McLelland and Julie Vanderpool taught at North Mecklenburg High School. Wal- ter Dean, Mike Frankhouser, Michael Kelley and Marie Cefalo taught during the spring term. Said Garry Sullivan: I enjoy the teaching aspect of it, but some of the day- to-day duties — like grading — take more time and energy than I ' d like to give them. Sullivan spent a full day at South Ire- dell teaching classes in English and American literature. Shannon Hamilton, who taught World History at a skills level to gifted and talented students, agreed with Hight ' s assessment of the program as rigorous. We never see anybody, she said. We all have so much to do. Hamilton said her classroom experience had been enhanced by a few love letters ing 12th graders. Student teaching itself carries two course credits while an education semi- nar led by Hight takes care of the third. Hight, along with other Davidson profes- sors, regularly evaluates the classroom performance of the student teachers. Along with lesson plans and grading, they are responsible for reading several books and articles and for writing major papers. In getting the teaching certifi- cate, these students experience the bene- fits of education when both the teacher and the students come to class prepared. I would like to see all these [students] stay in teaching because they ' re knowl- edgeable, sensitive and intelligent, said Hight. Some of the students quit teaching to obtain a Master ' s degree or Ph.D. in their fields. Many others go into law. Hamilton, however, said she has always wanted to be a teacher. I hope to get a Master ' s in education. Hight said he is pleased with the pro- gram and the impact students have had in their schools. We have a very rigorous program — but they [the students] get jobs, he said. I ' m not exactly merciless, but I drive them. They come out with a strong sense of achievement. They have a right to be proud of themselves. —Rod Holman MELINDA S. ROSHON, Visiting Instructor of Psy- chology. B.S. (Denison University). M.S.

Sitting cross-legged behind the box is McNeil. ,1 friendly bearded creature with grey squinting ayes, dressed in a blue smock. brown trousers and a tall red-peaked hat. Although he is no taller than five inches, McNeil is seven times as strong as a full-grown man and will live to be 400 years old. McNeil is a gnome, one of the many creations of Religion Professor Tom Clark. Other small gnomes can be spotted along Clark ' s gravel driveway, in tree branches and flower beds, and by the side of small ponds. The gravel road leads to Cairn studio behind Clark ' s home, where the gnomes are designed and sold. Clark explained gnomes are the cousins of dwarfs and elves. Clark has sculpted portraits for 25 years but created his first gnome while waiting for a model to arrive in 1978. He was inspired by the cover of The Book of Gnomes by Rien Poorvliet. After obtaining publishing rights, Clark began to create and sell gnomes. Now 150 of the figures are sold in 3,000 stores in the United States and Canada. He creates the figures using modeling clay. The clay figures are sent to a nearby plant where a silicon mold is made. The mold is filled with a casting mix com- posed of a variety of resins, chips of wood and pecan shells. After 30 minutes, the figure is taken from the mold, and studio workers apply finishing touches, paint and stain the gnomes. Clark dates each piece and always signs his familiar logo, his initials TEC. The mold is destroyed after 50 figures are made, and each figure is numbered from one to 50. indicating the order in which it was cast. Most of the gnomes have a foreign coin emerging from a coat pocket or hid- den among the acorns at their feet. These coins represent countries where gnomes are believed to exist. They include Swe- den, Norway, Switzerland, Russia, parts of Canada and the United States. Clark has also created figures from books, folk tales and magazines. A num- ber of toads, frogs and moles are pat- terned from characters in The Wind in the Willows collection. A series of Appalachian figures depict rugged early American types such as Daniel Boone with his coon-skin hat. Jeremiah Sallie, axe in hand, appears very content after chopping a pile of fire wood. Clark ' s original woodspirit collec- tion includes Gerber, with an acorn cap sitting on top of a tiny tennis shoe and Bick, with a whimsical grin after successfully completing a Rubik ' s cube. One figure created for the Stuart Scholarship program is entitled Ney and has Chalmers Davidson ' s face, red and black colors, and the Davidson seal and Wildcat symbol. Clark ' s future projects include a series called The True Builders of America, which will be composed of 12 figures, each representing different aspects of American history. He plans to design fig- ures for a Shakespeare festival in Or- egon and for the National Collectors Convention, to be held in South Bend, Ind., in June 1983. Clark now finds little time to do por- traits, but he said he enjoys the new di- mensions of his hobby and is excited about what directions it may take in the future. — Kathryn Murray ROBERT DAVID KAYLOR, Professor of Religion.

And, thanks to his Visual Flight Rules certifi- cate, he does it legally. Davies, associate professor of classics, is a pilot. His urge to conquer the skies was nei- ther hereditary nor influenced by Air Force commercials; rather, it came to life in 1976 when Davies spotted a billboard with the bold command, Learn to Fly. After eight months of lessons, Davies earned his VFR certificate. The certifi- cate requires 50 hours of training time, about as much time as you ' d spend in one term of his Latin class. The VFR license limits the pilot to flying in conditions of at least three miles of visibility and staying at least 1,000 feet away from clouds. Davies said he charters a two-seater or four-seater airplane twice a month from a flight club at the Brockenbrough Air- port to Chapel Hill, Durham, Statesville, Virginia or various other locations. Davies ' passengers are students, facul- ty or townspeople interested in sharing the costs (generally $20-$25 per person for a Chapel Hill or Durham flight) and the view from above. Sometimes he takes his two children along. But, Daddy chuckles, they have an ulterior motive: There ' s a Coke machine at the airport, Davies said. Davies isn ' t alone in his hobby; other pilots on campus are Jerry Roberts, asso- ciate professor of mathematics, and Gra- ver Meetze, director of the physical plant, who owns a plane in Statesville. Roberts holds the Instrumental Flight Rules certificate, which allows him to fly in whatever weather conditions he de- sires. He also holds a commercial li- cense. If I wanted to go to Alaska and fly as a bushpilot, I could, he said. The IFR requires 300-350 hours of training time (i.e., the equivalent of sev- en long terms of calculus). As the terms Instrument and Visu- al imply, Roberts uses instruments to get him through clouds, storms and smog, while Davies has to avoid them altogeth- er. In the middle of a cloud far above the earth, Roberts said, You literally cannot believe your senses. If your ear tells you you ' re upside-down, it ' s hard to learn to look at the instruments. Roberts said he feels competent flying in almost any sort of nasty weather, thanks to his instructor. He was an absolute nut, he said. He ' d call me up during incredibly bad weather and say, ' Let ' s go flying, ' know- ing, of course, that sooner or later Rob- erts would run into such storms. Both pilots said they will eventually own their own planes — possibly, for Da- vies, a $15,000 four-seater. While Roberts likes to explore the heavens above Canada, Davies is partial to beautiful Virginia flights and night flights. But wherever their flights take them, the two can be satisfied simply with transcending the earth — like Snoopy in his faithful Sopwith Camel. — Christi Baggett MID HANSFORD M.

Rumor has it that Dr. Lauren Yoder speaks 12 languages. Rumor, as usual, has it wrong. Yoder coordinates the self-instruction- al language program, under which stu- dents can learn Swahili, Urdu, Chinese, Japanese, Norwegian and various other languages not offered as regular courses. For this reason people assume that Yoder himself is fluent in each language offered by the program; but he grins and declares, I couldn ' t even say ' hello ' in most of those languages. Yoder instead speaks only French and English fluently, and with effort speaks Swahili, Italian, German, Spanish and Portuguese. Then how do students, under his guid- ance, learn the less common languages? Yoder calls this course of study totally self-instructional. A student involved in the program will spend eight to 10 hours per week in language lab. Also, the student will often have a tu- ALAN SINGERMAN, Associate Professor of French. B.A. (Ohio University) M.A., Ph.D. (Indi- ana University) tor — another student, native to the country, who corrects the American stu- dent ' s pronunciation. According to Yoder, those students cur- rently involved in the self-instructional language program are not language ma- jors. Instead they tend to fall into two gen- eral categories: those who wish to learn the language of their family back- grounds, or those who are applying to a graduate school with an unusual lan- guage requirement. It is sometimes helpful for professors of language to take another one, he said. His own experience in learning a new language helps him to pinpoint the prob- lems of his students. Whatever the language, if the end is to gain marketplace knowledge, Yoder said the self-instructional program is an effective and flexible means. — Christi Baggett French and Spanish 283 DAVID EMORY SHI, Assistant Professor of Histo- ry, BA. (Furman), MA.. Ph.D. (Virginia) Addition of computers enhances social sciences When Time magazine ' s Man of the Year turned out to be a computer, stu- dents of the liberal arts reached the point where they could no longer ignore mod- ern technology. Recognizing the need for the promo- tion of technology and applied math- ematics at the collegiate level, the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation awarded Davidson and nine other colleges a $250,000 grant. The purpose of this grant is to introduce more technology in all areas of the cur- riculum and to prepare graduates to function in a highly technological society. The college will undoubtedly direct part of this effort to the further explora- tion of computers. It is easy to visualize the presence of the computers in the sci- ences, but how may a humanities course be adapted for the computer? Dr. Robert DeSieno, director of the computer services center, explained that the use of the computer in a course will depend on the instructor. One example of the value of the computer is its useful- ness in extracting particular patterns of expression in literature. DeSieno, however, suggested that the computer would be more useful in the social sciences than in the humanities: The social sciences are likely to prosper a great deal, he said. The project is not an attempt to com- puterize Davidson College, DeSieno said. The computer is merely a tool to enhance study in the liberal arts. Davidson was selected from a pool of 33 colleges applying to the Sloan Foun- dation for the grant. All of the applicants were invited to submit proposals for the use of technology and applied math- ematics in the academic departments. Dr. Nicholas Burnett, associate dean of the faculty, chaired the committee that submitted the proposal. One key aspect of the proposal is the establishment of summer workshops to train faculty mem- bers of the humanities and social sci- ences in practical mathematics and com- puter science. Another element of the proposal is a series of fellowships for faculty members to adapt existing courses to modern tech- nological methods and to create new courses. The $250,000 will not be spent on equipment. Instead, the grant will fi- nance the workshops, fellowships, a se- ries of visiting lecturers, and costs associ- ated with the exchange of information. — Dick Richards ROBIN BRUCE BARNES, Assistant Professor of History, B.A. (Colby), M.A., Ph.D. (Virginia) MICHAEL WAYNE HOWELL, Visiting Instructor in History, B.A. (Vanderbilt), M.A. (U.N.C.) f 282 FACULTY MALCOLM o paktin, ProfaHoi ol HI [U.N.C.J, MA.

Davidson must seem a far cry from Dr. Peter Yentureltt ' a home in Chicago. Both of Venturelli s parents are Italian and he grew up in a small Italian neigh- borhood surrounded by many other eth- nic communities. It is easy to understand Venturelli ' s in- terest in racial and ethnic groups. He en- titled his Ph.D. dissertation at the Uni- versity of Chicago The Acculturation and Persistence of Ethnicity. Currently Venturelli is writing a book entitled The Persistence of Ethnicity, which is a con- tinuation of the themes in his disserta- tion. In the book he examines sociological problems such as institutional racism and the mechanisms of discrimination. His professional interest lies not only in Italian issues but in ethnicity in general. His other fields of interest include urban sociology, deviance and social control, and social psychology. Though the college is a relatively ho- mogeneous environment, Venturelli is pleased to see that the students here are receptive to men and women from dif- ferent ethnic backgrounds. They throw around fewer stereo- types, he said. When Venturelli is not teaching and writing, he enjoys cooking Chinese and Italian dishes. He specializes in pizzas and sauces from old family recipes that fit the old stereotype, he said. Venturelli lives on North Main with his wife Shalini Singh-Venturelli and their son Philip.

Imagine the novelty and freshness of full-sized paintings colorfully represent- ing mathematical theorems and their graphic examples. These works do exist and Dr. J. B. Stroud spent nearly one year at the Smithsonian Institute decoding their messages. Stroud translated into theorems almost all of the 117 Crockett Johnson originals, many of which permanently hang in the Smithsonian. Applying and being ac- cepted for a fellowship with the Smith- sonian in the fall of 1978, Stroud began work on the project in the fall of 1979. The Johnson paintings arrived simulta- neously and the museum ' s curator of the mathematics department chose Stroud to decipher the pictures. Crockett Johnson based his earliest works on diagrams straight from a math- ematical text. The theme of each paint- ing is a theorem; the series stretching from Pythagoras to Einstein. Johnson also penned a comic strip in the 1940s and later illustrated the children ' s books about Harold, including Harold and the Purple Crayon. Some of the Crockett Johnson works were titled with the depicted theorem, though for others Stroud examined John- son ' s letters, notes and documents to de- termine the statement illustrated by the painting. In addition to spending the aca- demic year of 1979 at the Smithsonian, Stroud also spent part of the summers of 1981 and 1982 there. About his experience, Stroud said: Once in a while, the curator asked me to lead tours of visiting school-children. Geometry classes would come and I would show them around. The Smithsonian is a fun place to work, he continued. You have the col- legiate environment without the stu- dents. You can spend all your time drag- ging out facts and reading books. —Rob Vaughn JUNIUS BRUTUS STROUD, Professor of Math- ematics, B.S. (Davidson].

M.A., Ph.D. (Minnesota) Bliss sees beauty through the lens A camera teaches you to see without a camera, explained English professor Frank Bliss when asked why he enjoys photography. His hobby has helped him to observe shapes, formations and balance of ob- jects, and he has learned to view nature closely and pensively. Even the ordinary bare branches of trees on cold wintery days have interesting structure and beauty when observed thoughtfully, he said. Bliss is enthusiastic about his hobby and has practiced it for more than 25 years. He became interested in close-up photography while teaching at Princeton in 1957. After photographing his three- year-old daughter, in which my daugh- ter ' s face just filled the picture, he real- ized his enjoyment for the art and began photographing many people and objects. Close-ups of flowers, trees, children and the elderly are his favorite subjects. He has also done extensive work in Sligo, a western port in the north of Ire- land, where William B. Yeats visited as a child. Bliss described this landscape as a rolling hilly countryside with distinc- tive mountains, especially Ben Bulbeen. Yeats often referred to this landscape in his poetry. Recently he has begun photographing hot air balloons with baskets. He con- structed a slide presentation of an aeros- tation rally at The Balloon Works, lo- cated 10 miles north of Statesville, N.C. His diversity of interests and subj ects has strengthened his enthusiasm and enjoy- ment of his hobby. Bliss has displayed his work occasion- ally in the Cunningham Fine Arts build- ing. In 1973 his collection entitled Im- ages from India was shown. It featured prints he had taken while traveling on a Fulbright lectureship program in 1971- 72. The Davidson depot walls are covered with nearly 100 of his photos of senior citizens in the community. In addition to photographing these individuals, Bliss has conducted taped interviews with each senior citizen and has thus collect- ed much information of the history of the community, as well as demonstrating his interest and respect for the elderly. His current project is to take a portrait of Herb Jackson for the catalogue of his Mint Museum show in March 1983. Most of Bliss ' work is in black and white, although he has worked with col- or prints. He uses a single lens reflex for close-up shots. His equipment consists of a Nikon F, Leica, and a 4 x 5 view cam- era. He has a darkroom and does all of his own developing. Bliss enjoys sharing his work with oth- ers and often gives slide shows in his English classes or for the Senior Citizens group. I love to do it! he said.

An upperclassman might not be sur- prised to hear this question from a new freshman, but when I was asked this as late as October I began to have my doubts about the adaptability of our newest class. I must confess that I would have en- joyed unearthing more amusing occur- rences of freshman bungling behavior, but unfortunately the conclusion I came to after looking into this year ' s Orienta- tion was that these freshmen seem to have made it through O week as planned. Standard in the orientation process are the presentations (on the Honor System, the Library, Davidsoniana, for example) which alert [the freshmen] to some of the problems and questions they will face during the course of the year, ac- cording to Will Terry dean of students and director of the orientation program. A freshman, who will remain nameless, concurred with Terry, using slightly dif- ferent language: They let us know we were going to be working our butts off. The first day of Orientation was Sat., Sept. 4 — doubtless a hectic, confusing and busy day for all; but also it was a day for meeting people, beginning with the THIS AIN ' T YOUR AVERAGE SQUARE DANCE, but freshmen and upperclassmen alike enjoy the traditional event each year. welcoming committee at the Student Union. Big events on Sunday were the depar- ture of parents, meeting with faculty ad- visors, Davidsoniana talk by Chalmers Davidson and the (in)famous People Hunt and Square Dance. Freshmen gen- erally have fun just getting to talk to their classmates in the spirited and vivacious atmosphere of the People Hunt. The job of trying to find all the people on one ' s list seems secondary. The Square Dance was perhaps a bit more relaxed. Dean Terry, who has been the caller since the dance tradition start- ed four years ago, said that we can count on seeing it again as a part of Orientation. How different this Sunday night ' s ac- tivities were, compared to what classes from years past did. For instance, David- son students in the ' 50s and ' 60s took chartered buses to Queens for mixers during Orientation. And on some Satur- day nights the Queenies came here. You ask how importing got started? One of the last activities the freshmen participated in during the orientation week was the home football game on Sat., Sept. 11. Being the enthusiasts they are, the freshmen were obligated to par- ticipate in adding to the spirit of the spec- tators by shouting such cheers as: Rape, Kill, Pillage, and Burn Rape, Kill, Pillage, and Burn (eat babies)? continued on page 294 YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU ' LL SEE when students start moving into dorms in September.

The scheduled Orientation program ended on Sept. 12 with the Freshman Regatta and Cookout. The race itself was the highlight of the afternoon, as the en- tire class scrambled in their makeshift contraptions toward the finish line, not caring whose raft just happened to get sabotaged on the way to victory (the vic- tors, by the way, were Second Center East and Third Rich).

Oh my God! I screamed. Homecom- ing is only two weeks away and I don ' t have a date! I glanced at the phone thoughtfully, but imagined a sleepy, No! Don ' t ever bother me again! Do you know what time it is?! Furiously scribbling a flow chart of choices and alternatives, I spent the rest of the sleepless night tying my stomach in a bow-line knot. The next day arrived; I sheepishly in- quired; she humbly accepted; we both (I think) were gladdened. Cheerfully returning to my room, I froze: What have I done? Where am I going? How am I going to get there? Why ? My roommate clasped my shoulders and forced a Homecoming schedule into my hand. I still don ' t understand! I said. Where do I take her? Do I need a invita- tion? Who on earth is Marshall Cren- shaw? My hall counselors offered the simple solution: You don ' t go. I finally unravelled the enigma of Homecoming by Friday, Oct. 8. At 8 p.m. in Love Auditorium, the famed Marshall Crenshaw was to take Davidson by storm. By 8:25 and no Marshall, the storm abated to a slow drizzle. Obviously not veterans of Davidson rock concerts, my date, my friends and I boisterously ap- plauded Crenshaw ' s eventual, albeit late, appearance. We were the only non- sedentary spectators in the house; I felt extremely young, suspended in a crowd of antiquated rock connoisseurs, almost begging to display their opera glasses and pumps. Hmmm, 9:30 and nothing else sched- uled for tonight. I fretted. How am 1 going to entertain this girl? Thoughts of discussing Gilgamesh and trying to get that sheet-bag on my bed came to mind, but nothing seemed plau- sible. Wait! We ' ll try Patterson Court, I of- fered. Our first stop was PIKA. After deter- mining my date ' s favorite drink, I am- bled to the bar, stood in line and was informed that this party was B.Y.O.B. Gosh, I really don ' t like the wallpaper in this place, I said to her; I sure don ' t. Though curious, she reluctantly agreed and we were off to SAE. Round- ing the Court, I noticed that, beyond my lack of invitation, something else would prevent our entrance: we were wearing jeans, they were wearing ties and dress- es, so we were KA-bound or bust. Bust. KAs, young and old. students and alumni, clamored in the basement, bel- lowing Kappa Alpha cheers. I had no in- vitation, no coat and tie, no megaphone and pompons, so no entry to KA. My date and I walked dejectedly to the front of the Commons. The night was over and she w r anted to go to sleep. We made plans for the next day and parted. What a loser, I heard her think. Tm down, but not out, I decided the next morning. It ' s only half-time; I still have two more quarters to go.

Later, football added thrill and action, but the heat was nothing short of oppres- sive. While I seethed in an Oxford, I boiled at the mere sight of some students stubbornly encased in blue blazers. To the sheer delight of everyone, Davidson won the game. The planned early departure for din- ner nullified designs on post-game cock- tail parties.

I screamed. Thank goodness for hallmates and credit cards, or our grandiose culinary extravaganza might have been a beef burrito and Bud at the 7-11. Before long, our party of 10, fidgeting somewhat uncomfortably in our Sunday School clothes, was seated in the restau- rant in Charlotte. Initially elevated rhe- toric disintegrated into collegiate chat. Dinner progressed delightfully; the food and atmosphere delightfully un-David- son-like. Then the bill came. So what if I had to sell my desk, textbooks and hall counsel- ors to cover the check? I had a good time. Returning to campus, we entered the Commons to hear Clifford Curry and the Hot Smokin ' Brass. They were more like Old Man Curry and his mid- ' 70s disco gods, but their flowing rhythm and throaty vocals provided impressive dance music. Yes, I had learned to shag the night before. I felt so Southern, as though on the band ' s next break we would all prance out to the ante-bellum gazebo to sip Mint Juleps and cuss. After the dance, my date and I cruised to F M ' s Heaven and Hell party. The upstairs was heaven; the downstairs, which required a shot of liquor upon en- try, was hell. Hell perfectly balanced the day ' s earlier propriety, crowning a plea- surable day with devilish mania. I ' m not sure how or when I returned; I ' ve forgotten everything past the seven- teenth damnation. So from Love to Lucifer ' s, Homecom- ing was a success. As confused fresh- men, we floundered through planned activities, enjoying the pleasant diver- sion from our regular schedule. The weekend, not magnificently spectacular, but simple and sheltered, typified an iso- lated, smalltown Davidson College. —Rob Vaughn ROGER KROMER AND SUSAN ANDERSON practice a few steps before the Homecoming dance.

Finally, THE WEEKEND arrived. I began to count minutes rather than days as my excitement continued to mount. My date arrived to take me to the concert on Friday night, accompanied unexpect- edly by a friend. I decided to make the best of it. After all, not many girls had two dates. The Marshall Crenshaw band began the show with a series of unfamil- iar songs as we remained politely atten- tive and seated. Just as everyone was be- ginning to get restless, the introduction of a familiar song sent the audience into a wild frenzy. Everyone was so excited about recognizing the tune that we all rushed to the stage and began to sing and jump up and down to the beat of the music The band, at first disappointing, proved Itseli to be entertaining.

The rugby team was bloody but victorious. When the rugby game was over we focused on the soccer field. Although the game was tied, both teams were fairly exciting. After the soccer game my date and I headed to Richardson field for the foot- ball game. We played Guilford College; although ' Davidson did win the game, the crowd lacked enthusiasm and my date and I talked to surrounding friends through most of the game. Plans were made for the rest of the evening as we walked, with several couples, to a room in Belk, where we continued our con ver- sation.

When my date returned to pick me up, I was ready and waiting. He looked so good in his three-piece suit; but, then again, I was used to seeing him in daily college attire (jeans) ... so far, so good . . . We went, along with three other cou- ples and a lonely extra, to an atmospher- ic restaurant with a first-rate salad bar. The meal was excellent, the wine was even better (three carafes, and who was driving?) and we all enjoyed pretending to be real people, not college students. Shortly after we finished our meal the manager approached our table and, to our surprise, asked us to leave! My date and two other guys at our table were ada- mant and argued with the manager. The three later admitted that they were em- barrassed, but the incident was actually quite funny, and we all had a few good SOCCER PROVIDED EXCITEMENT on the Satur- day morning of Homecoming. laughs. The dance was held later that evening at the Commons; when we arrived, the band, Clifford Curry and Hot Smokin ' Brass, had already begun to play and most of the couples were dancing. My expectations that the Commons would be elegantly decorated were clearly too high. The band, playing poor imitations of not-so-popular songs and repeatedly referring to the college as Davidson University (annoying to no end] was a further disappointment. After a few songs, a slow dance and quick shag, my date proposed that we check out the activities on Patterson Court. The most interesting non-invitational party that we could find was a Heaven and Hell party at F M. After a change into jeans and a shot of almost anything chased by beer, we descended into Hell. The rest of the night was spent playing pool, meeting and re-meeting people and making frequent visits to the bar. I lost my date a few hours after we ar- rived and assumed the he had ascended into Heaven and gone back to Belk. Although the weekend lacked moon- light strolls and a lasting romance, it was a great chance to get to know my date as more than a fellow student. My first Big Davidson Weekend gave me much more than the experience of taking part in the various activities — over the week- end I made a special friend with whom I can share some remarkable memo- ries. — Trish Lennon II. s FRESHMAN CHRISTI BAGGETT takes a break from a wild weekend.

At least I ' m getting a lot of studying done. NOVEMBER: I can ' t believe we ever felt lonely here. I ' m ready to have a Grand Central Station sign made for our door. There are freshmen here all the time, talking, borrowing things, using reference material (yearbooks and old Wildcat Handbooks), or escaping from their rooms. I don ' t mind, though, be- cause the girls are fun to be with. I ' m going to miss them over Thanksgiving break. DECEMBER: Now I know why par- ents of small children like Christmas so much. We ' ve got Secret Santa gifts to buy, Christmas parties to plan, and decora- tions to make. Plus, all these events give me an excellent excuse to run around with my camera taking pictures of peo- ple. JANUARY: Coming back from Christ- mas break was quite a pleasure. It was so good to hear the girls tell us Welcome home when we got here. We ' ve got two more birthdays this month to think up plots for. We ' ve tried waking people up for breakfast and surprising them at night with cakes or other goodies. It ' s get- ting hard to come up with new ideas. At this point, the only thing that would truly surprise them would be not doing any- thing at all, but we still feel like we ' re being sneaky. The year is half over now, and the freshmen don ' t seem like freshmen any- more. But, then, they ' re not supposed to be perpetual freshmen, and to keep them from that is why we ' re here.

The initiation into collegiate-ness be- gan with an overwhelming orientation — three of four days that utilized the theor- ies or shock treatment. Orientation pro- duced nervousness as well as excite- ment, as Joe Freshman was deluged by sights and sounds of Collegiate Life, con- stantly hearing, This is Your College Ex- perience. We immediately began to understand the many-faceted phenomenon of col- legiate. Hall counselors met us, lectured us, guided us, awed us, mixed us. The hard part is over now. We can identify collegiate when we see it — and even participate. Collegiate is room-decorating, sponta- neous 2 a.m. mini-parties, a passion for the post office (all too often including the agony of an empty box) and memo boards. It is laid-back Saturday morn- ings, pizza, apathy, and the laundry ser- vice. ( They even iron them! ) And ubiquitous bluchers and back- packs, comfortable sweatshirts and sweatpants, essential buttondowns and straight-legs. And all-nighters, movies and study breaks (cider, bagels, sundaes; anything but books). Collegiate is Charlotte, lake campus, the 7-11 and, thank God, Food Town Lion. And punting classes, and studying on weekends, and missing people over vacations, and legends like The Three THE VANTAGE VIEWPOINT of Second Rich girls is put to use by Jeanne Anne Chapman and Sally Gray, who spend the afternoon watching the world go by. Weeks Before Christmas ... It is vegging on Friday afternoons, hearing from Belk simultaneous Beatles, Clash, Gap Band, Stones, Billy Joel, Adam Ant, Kool and the Gang and Tchaikovsky. It is getting behind in classes, joking about Davidson ' s size, sleeping little and burning out. And announcements everywhere, and being relieved to find that everyone has interests besides studying, and not following the daily schedules we make out for ourselves. It is giving upperclass- men bigger smiles, and learning the per- sonalities of the eating houses, and plan- ning trips abroad. Here, collegiate is stiff academics — being surrounded by excellence and consequently feeling a brand-new sense of mediocrity. It is meeting people who really understand computers, really use words like quintessential, and really discuss politics. It is realizing that Davidson is isolated and somewhat unreal, but, more than we admit, paradoxically enjoying those very qualities. And, frighteningly enough, watching seniors leave for The Working World. Collegiate is a new vocabulary — blowing if off, awesome, mega . It is calling the library The Braire and hu- manities humes . . . . . . and Davidson home. — Christi Baggett THE MANY SIDES OF DAVIDSON life leave Rob- ert Watkins divided over exactly what is the real Davidson man.

Some jog, others play tennis; some even think drinking beer is great exer- cise. Davidson has its own recipe for becoming fit and trim. If the following ingredients are correctly mixed, this recipe should work for anyone. First, take one 20-year-old instruc- tor named Laura Taft, who not only has the know-how but also the deter- mination to teach others how to take weight off and get in shape. Next, add six to eight girls who are willing to come to a class two out of five times per week. Mix this combination in a social setting like Warner Hall. Season the mixture well with up- beat music, a cupful of intense con- centration and an ounce of perspira- tion. Add a spoonful of fun and allow all these ingredients to cook for an hour. This recipe makes six to eight well-toned girls who feel great about themselves. Benefits of this recipe are muscle LAURA TAFT, DAVIDSON ' S OWN JANE FONDA, leads the fitness conscious in an after- noon workout. development, breakdown of fat, re- lease from tension and a longer life. WARNING: Boys should not be added to this recipe. They have a ten- dency to inhibit the actions of girls causing the recipe to be a disaster. A new recipe, however, is being devel- oped which uses serious boys com- bined with girls to produce one co-ed muscle toning class. This recipe was created by Taft, a pre-med major. She enjoys the chal- lenge of teaching others how to get into shape and is excited about the enthusiastic response her program has received. Learning how to do the exercises correctly and concentrating all the time are very important, she said. Furthermore, it is vital to pick out one muscle and work it continually for five or 10 minutes. It may hurt, but concentrate to keep doing it. The best thing about this recipe is that it is free. Some wise man once said, Aerobics makes the heart grow stronger. This must be the recipe that he followed. —Murray Simpson Sophomores 307 Frances Gibson Kara Gilmore Kathy Gingrich Norman Gordon Warren Gould Kathy Gratto Marv Griffin 308 CLASSES Signs of the times When walking to class, to the post office, to dinner or merely to a friend ' s room, have you ever noticed the fetish for signs and notes that this campus has? The halls of Chambers, perhaps, epitomize this attachment to the writ- ten word. Endless memos of up- coming events, computer printouts of course offerings and tear-stained no- tices of courses-needed provide a source of literature without parallel. Eumenean Hall, too, has been forced into the role of campus bulletin board. From its hallowed balcony many a banner drapes, announcing an upcoming play, a birthday or elec- tion results. Signs are also evident on and in many of the eating houses. Who could forget that philosophical question that the Phi Delts posted in their front yard: Where in the hell is our bench? It must be noted here that it is not necessary to wander like a campus dog in search of these signs. Some of the best notes to be found are on your next-door neighbor ' s memo board. Along with the usual signs ( Sleeping and Shh, studying ) are the signs ca- pable of blackmail: those which say, Gone to Charlotte. If Dad calls, tell him I ' m in the library. There are, of course, the more usual forms of signs on campus. For exam- ple, in walking through Chambers on a lonely evening, have you ever passed outside the Admissions Office and given the signboard a quick pe- rusal? Or, after not receiving mail for the fifth day in a row, have you ever stopped for a long reading of the sign- board outside the post office? Bet you have. Have you ever wondered who does it? How it is done? When it is done? For your personal edification, then, and as possible question material for the College Bowl team, this Q C staffer staked out those elves of the night and got the following story. The lettering of the signboards on campus falls under the auspices of the Student Union work-study program. It is a job that requires conscientious and dependable people, for the boards must be changed without fail six days-a-week, 10 weeks-a-term. How does one letter the signboard? The first step in the lettering of a board comes when the worker goes to the Union and picks up a sheet of up- coming activities from the desk. He then gets the key to the signboard and a box of assorted letters. Finally, the letterer walks to his designated board, removes all of the outdated an- nouncements and puts up the new an- nouncements. This lettering can take anywhere from 15 minutes on a week- night to an hour-and-a-half on a big weekend. As to the question of when this let- tering is done a number of responses are heard. It seems there is no set hour at which one can find a board-worker tacking up letters. Said freshman Pam Colquitt, I put up my signboard any- where from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m. Freshman Brian Roberts, a fellow board-worker, is able to pinpoint his working time to 1 a.m. Surprisingly, there are a number of people roaming about campus at owl- ish hours who happen upon these workers. According to the letterers, one generally hears the comments: Oh, so that ' s who does the signs, or What ' s going on tomorrow? Any oth- er comments heard by the workers; were lost in translation. Aside from the positive aspects of being aware of the happening events on campus and of receiving a regular paycheck for doing this work, the signperson ' s job is a rather thankless one. Often he wonders if anyone notices his handiwork. Then there are always the hazards of t he weather to consider. The board-workers, like the mail- men, must work through rain or snow or sleet of night. Colquitt concluded, however, that the job isn ' t all bad. She said, It ' s an excellent way to meet new people and make friends. — Catherine Finegan Roxanna Cuilford |ohn I pin H.im Sarah Hall T Haiti ) Hall V Leilani Hamilton Lou Hamilton pro . - DAVIDSON ' S CAMPUS SIGNS are a source of both bawdy and basic information. They not only tell you where not to park and how to get a ride home, but also reflect local library humor. Elisabeth Hargrove Bill Harmon Judy Harrell Andy Harrison Sarah Hart Laura Hassell Killing time and frustration Video games. What these electronic wonders have done to the state of our nation, Ronald Reagan and the Capitol Hill boys couldn ' t have hoped to accom- plish in an entire century of military funding. Pac-Man and his merry band of cheeping, whirring buddies have made techno-warriors out of our eight to 25 range male and, to a slightly less- er degree, female population. Sure, you say, I can handle that. If the rest of the world wants to join the Iron fan club, that ' s fine by me. I ' m at Davidson, where we pursue the high- er forms of knowledge, where, even if we did indulge in video games, they would be of the universal video sort that Plato so loved rather than in their vulgar earthly form. Cleveland, New York, Chicago and San Francisco can play but not Davidson. Well, that ' s not the case. Video games abound on campus, and the corridors of learning have somehow lost their grandeur. Let ' s face it, when you can go into hyper- speed for a mere quarter, your basic pillar tends to lose some of its mys- tique. However, that ' s not to say that these games don ' t have their place; in- deed they do. The machines can be found in near- ly every unoccupied nook on campus. They are placed strategically so that certain crowds who will be more like- ly to enjoy them will have a chance to do so in their favorite atmosphere. To illustrate by contrast, you will notice there are no video games in the facul- ty lounge or in the sanctuary at DCPC. The people in charge have uncannily foreseen the general lack of enthusi- asm that might greet Pac-Man and Donkey Kong in these particular places. Where can one find a video game if in desperation? The first place to start looking, obviously, is in Belk dorm. Not to undermine the freshmen, but shooting down bug-eyed invaders from an inter-dimensional time warp tends to pacify the same passions which arouse those new to college freedom into throwing bricks and larger objects through windows. Give the dog a bone and he won ' t want steak. The Student Union would be next on the list, since munchies help the struggling veg-gamer through the tense and often taxing moments that occur when round men with triangu- lar mouths try to mess with your life by eating you. Also, the Cafe can boast of a more esoteric crowd than Belk; thus players can hobnob over a milk- shake about the constant tension be- tween inclination and duty that exists in the phenomenal world of the video screen. Also, people distraught over excessive losing can console them- selves with other losers, or watch the masters at work and learn from them. It ' s truly a Bohemian crowd, stimulat- ed by the clashing of ideals and the deep-throated buzzing of little men from outer space. For the non-purists, computers themselves can be a sort of video game, especially if you don ' t know how to log in. And for late-night bore- dom, there ' s nothing more fun than going to the all-night study room com- puter and pretending to be Mr. Sulu at the deck of the Enterprise.

IYuly one maj wonder why the bathroom walls oi such s fine and academically-oriented institution are not more liberally annointed with words of wisdom Perhaps one explanation Is that the Conservative ambience of the college discourages actions whose respect- ability is suspect. Another explanation is the administration ' s active cam- paign to dispatch all new arrivals — the stall doors of the Chambers bath- GROCERIES? A shopping cart serves a differ- t ' ti! purpose for a shower-taking Davidson coed. MULTI-FUNCTIONAL SHOWER STALLS are good for more than a quick shower. An un- known female has overtaken a stall in Cannon to air her laundry. STUDYING? Perhaps, but more than likely this student is taking a necessary break from the rigors of Davidson life. Reading material in campus stalls range from SGA minutes to cre- ative graffiti. rooms, fot example, betray signs ol brutal sanding and ie painting, M li some wealthy alumnus might take of- fense at this creative outlet. In any case, the disturbing question naturally arises: How are Davidson students to divert themselves whilst on the throne? Apparently, the SGA has wondered the same thing. In a benevolent ges- ture to offer some sort of relief, the SGA periodically posts sheets of pa- per called Minutes on the inside stall doors of most dorm facilities. Re- grettably, however, they are rather dry by the fourth reading. So the problem remains: How is a Davidson student to pass the several dull and intellectually stagnant min- utes aboard the throne each day? In response here is a glimpse of a few solutions: I like to look under the par- titioning walls and try to identify my neighbors by recognizing the sneakers they are wearing, confessed one freshman. One upperclassman coed enjoys a different diversion: Sometimes I just sit there and watch the little red ants 1 around in circles If onegetstoo close to in ' , feet I stomp it More academically ambitious stu- dents spend their daily throne time more productively. During exam week, lot example, textbooks fre- ipieiitly become an integi.d part of main bathroom routines. Sometimes I ' ll get on a roll and won ' t leave my stall for hours, ad- mitted one student. Another finds the restroom envi- ronment more conducive to light duty reading. I ' ll go sit in one of the li- brary ' s handicap stalls and read mag- azines until my legs fall asleep . . . uh. by the way, you don ' t think it ' s unethi- cal to use handicap stalls, do you? Perhaps the greatest contribution the facilities offer the students is the opportunity to slow down and to es- cape the fast-paced and academically demanding climate of Davidson, if only for a few minutes each day. As one student candidly noted, It ' s nice just to sit there and think about abso- lutely nothing. —Barry Elledge Tim McGaughey !.• ' ■. - | .Mullen W. A.

Murphy- Susie Myers Clay Napper Students minister church youths Many students realize that there is more to the word church than going to DCPC each Sunday or attending DCF each Friday night. Sophomores Hank VanDeventer and Keith Evans direct a youth pro- gram for 20 students at St. Luke ' s Lutheran Church in Mooresville. During their freshman year, VanDe- venter and Evans heard that the church was in need of youth minis- ters. They have been involved in the program from its very start. The group meets at 7 p.m. on Sundays, but Evans and VanDeventer plan activities for other times during the week. They have set a goal of each seeing one stu- dent twice a week on an individual basis, a task that might involve taking a student to lunch or picking him up after school and going bowling. VanDeventer and Evans coordinat- ed AWARE ' 83, a weekend retreat in April involving four other church groups, including approximately 100 students. It does more for me than them, I think. I ' ve redefined my ideas about the ministry, VanDeventer said. Bill Bigger and Kathy Gingrich, also sophomores, undertook a similar pro- ject at Lake Norman Baptist Church. Bigger said their goal as leaders of the group is to make Christianity practical. Sophomores Kathy Clark, Sid Jones, and Meg Surratt lead a chil- dren ' s choir at the Davidson Method- ist Church. Practice always begins with some form of worship activity led by Surratt — reading a story, making arts and crafts projects. For the remainder of the practice, Jones plays piano and Clark leads the singing. Since they can ' t read, said Clark, it takes lots of memorization. It ' s also a tough job to find songs they can easi- ly sing. The little choir, as the leaders call it, has sung twice at the Sunday church service. The Davidson campus itself has provided opportunities for motivated students to take the initiative in help- ing existing church organizations meet their needs. The Catholic Campus Ministry (CCM), for example, had been lacking music for Sunday Mass until senior Dave Stosur during his freshman year enlisted the help of classmate Eric Fichtner. The two sang hymns a ca- pella that year, but the following year Caroline Boudreau and Brian Brost joined them, adding guitars and aeon- temporary folk music repertoire. The group steadily grew and now includes three guitarists, a flutist and three singers. Stosur has also served as student coordinator of CCM, a position which involves explaining the needs of Da- vidson students to the priests at St. Therese Catholic Church in Moores- ville, who lead mass in Lingle Chapel every Sunday night. Stosur is training sophomore Greg Murphy to take over the position next year. Students have made their presence felt in the surrounding community. Both the students and the churches in- volved eagerly admit benefitting from the experience. —Kathy Gratto Anne G. Porges Forrest L. Ranson Jim Reaves Judith Redd Picking parents The week before Christmas, Dean Terry ' s office is filled with hopeful hall counselor applicants. This year 19 junior females applied for eight spots in Rich- ardson and 32 males went for the 18 available positions in Belk. If asked, Why do you want to be a hall counsel- or? none would reply financial com- pensation; students generally consider it a rewarding experience. Most applicants are confident they would be successful at integrating freshmen into Davidson ' s academic and social life but, unfortu- nately, students alone do not make the ultimate decision. A panel of 10 — five administrators and five students — determines the final selection on the basis of applications, evaluations and interviews. The first step is the application itself which, be- lieve it or not, is more difficult than the application to Davidson College. This year ' s questions concerned presenting the Honor Code to freshmen, determin- ing personal strengths and weaknesses, dealing with the worst conceivable prob- lem a hall counselor could confront, and Mary Grey Reddick David Benjamin Resnik 316 CLASSES describing their freshm.m hall The students have .1 greal deal of in- put on the second stage of the process, or peer evaluation Bach applicant must rate the other applicants, categorizing them Into one of four categories .1 one being for the best candidates, .1 four for the worst Ex-hall counselors, current hall counselors, and freshman advisors also rate the prospective hall counselors.

The selec- tion takes over a month, but eliminating the surfeit of strong candidates is diffi- cult. As Sue Ross pointed out, any stu- dent concerned enough to devote a year ' s time to the well-being of freshmen deserves to be a hall counselor. —Carol Roche Keith ' Sallla KoIjiiimiii Ganttnar Rodday Huntat Rodde) |amai W Rooan Nancy K Caroline E.

For many students, the worst part of the crisis lies in selecting a major field of study — a crucial decision which could alter the course of their young lives. Of course, this problem is not common to all students; some have definite ideas about their future edu- cational goals even before they enter college. (These are the same obnox- ious students who have all their pa- pers done two weeks early.) For most, however, it is still a dilemma. The following true confessions re- veal the serious implications this all- important decision can have. The names have been changed to protect the parties involved. It is suggested that younger readers skip these dis- turbing accounts. LOOKING OVER THE COURSE OFFERINGS for spring term, sophomore Mike Mauze at- tempts to complete his core requirements.

Confusion about personal values and priorities lies behind all of these disturbing situations. If only these stu- dents had considered these vital is- sues more carefully earlier in their college careers, they might never have reached this stage. Nevertheless, cases such as these usually are cured in time. Often students merely need better education in order to handle this crisis. A similar crisis can arise when the student must select an advising pro- fessor. The symptoms, however, usu- ally are not as chronic as those in- curred in deciding a major. Complica- tions may arise when the demand for a certain professor exceeds the num- bei oi students he can reasonably take on Not to worry; In such cases, tie merely will refei them to a colleague .it no extra t hai i toi i l I the student is well on the way back to his normal daily college routine thai paradox- ical concept all students strive to real- ize.

Thereupon, the student must seek the elusive Department Head and obtain His Most Worthy- Signature. Deceptive office hours and unforeseen faculty meetings threaten to thwart the efforts of the diligent stu- dent, but persistence wins out at last, and the quest is complete. Most find this struggle a strength- ening experience and one which de- velops in them natural immunities against a relapse. Occasionally, the symptoms will recur, but the next bout is always less draining than the first. Yet the later in the student ' s educa- tional life that this syndrome devel- ops, the more devastating the effects.

This stu- dent group plays New Wave and Sixties music and even practices a little reggae. They also play some of their own music, such as Watford Junction and Waking Up in the Shadows, two songs written as a group effort. Jaworski explained that their style of music is the stuff you wouldn ' t hear on WROQ. The group made its debut in Novem- ber of 1981 in the talent show, Top Hats and Cat Tails. They won first prize in the show. Ice Nine ' s first performance on the road was at Gus ' Gourmet Res- taurant, but because of the destruction of furniture that occurred during the even- ing, the band was asked not to return. In the spring of ' 82, they began playing for parties on Patterson Court and in the 900 Room. Ice Nine has also played at the Milestone, a New Wave club in Char- lotte, where they served as the warm-up band for such bigger names as Joe King Crarasco and the Crowns. It is at the Mi- lestone that Butle r believes the band has given its best performance.

Another offering for the rock-and-roll lover at Davidson is the band which ap- pears in the 900 Room and around Pat- terson Court and calls itself Fred. Ju- niors David Hall, Jim Rumley, Mark Whelan, and sophomore Greg Thomson have given the Court parties a stiff dose of 1960s rock-and-roll. Hall sings, Thomson and Whelan play the bass guitar and guitar, while Rumley plays the drums. The band plays mostly the music of The Who, the Beatles, the Kinks and the Rolling Stones. They are also beginning to play some original songs, Whelan acknowledged thai finding suitable times foi four Davidson students to get together and practice is difficult, theless, Fred plays together about three hours every couple of days. Rum- ld The Fijis allow them to practice at their house; in return Fred plays at the Fiji parties for free. Whelan and Rumley are considering the prospect of becoming full-time musi- cians in the near future. They said they hope to take advantage of opportunities at Charlotte nightclubs, such as the Mi- lestone. Fred has already invested about $6000 in equipment. That ' s a conservative es- timate, Rumley said. He sold his truck to finance the band ' s PA. system. Why the name Fred? The band first called themselves Sparks.

At 14 he was tin- ' regon State |udo Champion; ,it Id he took the North Carolina State title. A year later he was named the Southeast Region Champion. At this point David be- came an assistant instructor of judo. Earning his black belt when 18 years old at Parris Island. David has since earned the second-degree black belt know as the Nidan. When 19, David won a place on the United States team and placed third in a competition in Puerto Rico. He placed second in a meet against West Germany and first in a Colorado meeting with the United States, West Germany, France and Finland. David has had quite a successful re- cord on the United States team but does not plan to try out for a place again. Instead, he hopes to win a place on the Army s judo team. David is a Second Lieutenant in the Davidson College Army ROTC De- tachment. He is the recipient of a ROTC two-year scholarship, is the president of the Scabbard and Blade Society and is the company ' s instruc- tor of combatives. He will be attend- ing Airborne School at Ft. Benning in the summer of 1983. A member of the Sigma Phi Epsilon social fraternity, David holds the of- fice of house manager. In this position he is responsible for the upkeep, rent and renovation of the fraternity house. If made to choose the activity which gives him the most pleasure, David said he is likely to point to his job as a Davidson judo and Nautilus instruc- tor or to his role as a boy scout leader. What I really enjoy is teaching, David said, adding that he enjoys see- ing his students benefit from what he has taught them. —Catherine Finegan REHEARSAL FOk -THE MIKADO?

Sound too good to be true? Well, it ' s not. Each year following Christ- mas break the Union offers short courses, and they ' re all taught purely for student enjoyment. According to Melissa Page, student di- rector of the program, these courses are offered during winter term because it seems to be such a nothing time. The idea behind the courses is to get students involved in something other than school- work. It ' s a time for socializing while din- ing out, seeing current movies or tasting wine and cheese. It ' s also a time for learning new skills, such as bread bak- ing, Southern cooking, car repair, per- sonal finance and pottery. For just having fun, activities such as clogging and belly- dancing are provided. Another attractive feature of these courses is that they take very little time and money, two things Davidson stu- dents never seem to have enough of. Many of them meet only once a week for an hour and most are offered free of charge or include a small charge to cover costs. Surprisingly, the most expensive course, the wine-and-cheese-tasting course, was also the most popular. There was such a long waiting list for this course this year that it was repeated dur- ing spring term. Other favorites included ballroom dancing, personal finance and Will Terry ' s course on Southern cooking. When it comes to short courses, the Union basically follows a policy of giv- ing the students what they want. Stu- dents are asked for suggestions and any student willing to share his hidden tal- ent, whatever it may be, is asked to in- struct a course. Page came up with many of the ideas for short courses by thinking of those she herself would enjoy taking. The final list ranged from the practical personal fi- nance course to the exotic backrubbing and bellydancing courses. According to Page, many students don ' t realize these courses are offered. The short courses used to be very popu- lar and Page hopes that they are on their way back. If this year ' s waiting lists are any indication, short-term courses are a good way of combatting the winter blahs. — Joanne Stryker ONE-TWO-CHA CHA CHA.

In choosing and arranging the various cultural events that the Union spon- sors, he often uses his background in the arts as a springboard for his deci- sions. Both the scope of his artistic en- deavors and his infectious enthusiasm join to yield an effective student lead- er. Donley, a junior from Louisville, Ky, is a studio art major with outlying interests in photography and theatre. Photography, in fact, led to Donley ' s choice of a major. Although he enjoys the hobby, he has found that its objec- tives are incorporated within studio art ' s study of color, composition and light. I ' ve decided that I ' m going to be an artist first, then I can apply my knowl- edge to photography. I figure that I ' ll have a head start over even the better- than-average photographers, said Donley. He foresees doing an ad- vanced study project in the medium of photography. Due to his knowledge of the cam- era, Donley has contributed both to the Communications Office and to a Louisville commercial photography firm. Ultimately, however, Donley would like to keep photography as an avocation; he would prefer to work in the field of art. Donley has also actively participat- ed in campus theatre productions such as Look Homeward, Angel and in various winter workshop produc- tions. His interest in theatre stems from his participation in theatre study workshops in high school. I love to perform, Donley said. I ' ve probably spent three out of the last five years on stage. There ' s some- thing very gratifying about that final curtain call that can ' t be translated into words; it ' s a feeling of satisfaction that is matched by no other. Theatre here at Davidson has a special gratitude connected with the tight community atmosphere, he con- tinued. When you ' re fortunate enough to be in a good show, the audi- ence lets you know it. When considering Donley ' s interest in the various cultural arts, one won- ders if perhaps a more technically-ori- ented art school would have been a more appropriate choice of schools. Donley emphatically argues for the advantages of receiving a liberal arts education. Said Donley: I can pick up the more technical aspects of art [such as graphics, commercial art, and three- dimensional art] after I get out of school and am working. He said there has been no personal sacrifice of goals or objectives by choosing to attend Davidson. He has been able to work on his photography, to attain a knowledge of art and to receive an excellent liberal arts education. —Catherine Finegan THE GORGE is an example of Pat Donley ' s photography. Majoring in studio art, Donley has interest in photography and theatre also. PAT DONLEY FRAMES a picture in front of Chambers. Donley has contributed his work to a number of publications on campus. ason Ratteree |ane Redd Juniors 327 Converting creativity into a trade When Scot Myers was young he used to trace pictures from his color- ing books. Tracing led to drawing, but those early years led Myers to special- ize in duplicative art. At Davidson he is known as the creator of the comic strips Quest ' s End and The Satan Quest. I ' m a good forger, he said. I ' ve never taken an art lesson; I just do it. His art stems not from an ordinary fascination with imitation, but from a fascination with the enhancement and duplication of objects. As a youngster his drawings of dinosaurs weren ' t mere pictures — they were more dinosaurs. Myers ' second childhood interest was comic books — Richie Rich, Superheroes, The Avengers, and X-Men . He still reads the books, but he learned that it ' s much more digni- fied if you call yourself a comic book collector. This interest in comics, combined with his artistic ability and new inter- ests in science fiction and graphic de- sign, led Myers to the creation of his own comic book characters. What I draw is not cartooning. I can ' t draw caricatures; I can draw comic book figures, said Myers of his craft, explaining the superhero per- fection of his characters ' bodies. When Davidsonian Editor John Si- man asked Myers as a sophomore to start a comic strip for the paper, Myers called the opportunity sort of an ex- cuse for me to start drawing again. Thus The Satan Quest was born. I was overwhelmed at how popu- lar my story was, Myers said. Quest ' s End is not a sequel to The Satan Quest; it is a continuation only in that it takes place with the same characters, seven years later. The new comic is less metaphysical — no de- mon-confrontation, more realistic, Myers said. Due to the popularity of both comic strips, Myers is often asked whether he wants to make a career of drawing. He doesn ' t. He plans to keep drawing as an avocation. What I want to do is make movies. If I can ' t, I can write. If I can ' t write, I can be a graphic designer ... I nurture talents because they give me fall- backs. One fact is obvious to all who are familiar with Scot Myers ' dedication to his crafts. When he says of talents, When I need them I use them, he is serious. — Christi Baggett SCOT MYERS PLAYS DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS with freshman Maegan Bos in his room office. Having become involved in D D during his freshman year, Myers now draws his own material. QUEST ' S END, a comic strip appearing in The Davidsonian, was designed and drawn by Scot Myers.

Leaders take initiative in order to see action and results. Unfortunately, when much time is demanded by academic and social ob- ligations, initiative can become an en- dangered species. At Davidson there are a few organiza- tions that are unique in their being pro- ducts of student initiative and effort; each testifies to the fact that student ini- tiative here isn ' t quite extinct. Amnesty International has its roots in last year ' s El Salvador Coalition. Contin- ued by the efforts of coordinator Eliza- beth Kiss and a core group of other stu- dents and faculty, Amnesty Internation- al ' s purpose is to increase student awareness of civil rights issues. The freshman newspaper, The Com- munique, also was begun last year by John Marks, Todd Wiebusch, and others who believed freshmen needed their own voice other than the Davidsonian, or who for some reason couldn ' t write for the Davidsonian but wanted to continue their newspaper experience from high school. The group decided to initiate the Com- munique, and received help from Tom Williams at the Mecklenburg Gazette and J. D. Chamberlain at the Moores- ville Tribune. Due to a lack of both information and time, only two issues appeared last year, but the Activities Board granted this year ' s Communique $1,000 so that fresh- men might get involved. Freshman Paul Kowert during winter term organized an interested staff for the Communique. Warner Hall, the campus ' newest eat- ing house, is one of the more familiar examples of student initiative. Last year at self-selection, Rusk had a long waiting list — and those on the list, who still wanted an all-girl eating house, decided to form their own. Now that the college has helped Warner Hall get on its feet by granting it a house (one of the old freshman eating halls) and funding, President Connie Kyle said that most of the initial prob- 330 CLASSES lems are solved and major kinks worked out. Mitzi Short in October was the orga- nizing factor behind the Gospel Choir. Earl Wooten consented to provide the pi- ano accompaniment and music training. Short gathered a good student response to posters announcing the first meeting. With approximately 30 members, the Gospel Choir has sung at DCF, Davidson United Presbyterian Church, Reeves Temple AME Zion, the First United Me thodist Church, and in the 900 Room. When Elizabeth Kiss ' father, Dr. San- dor Kiss, died early this fall, a group of seniors wanted to give something more to the family than flowers. They circulated letters around campus and collected $500. The money is now a student-endowed fund in the memory of Dr. Sandor Kiss for the purpose of put- ting books in the library on the issues of human rights. The Publications Board, which had been inactive for several years, was re- activated this year by senior Jim Reese in order to ensure high quality in Davidson publications. The Board includes the editors and business managers of all five publica- tions, and seeks to work out budgetary problems, to share advice on problems within each staff, and to provide training for prospective editors. Taking initiative implies effort and commitment, according to Reese: It al- ways frustrates me when people don ' t take the time from academics to get in- volved. — Trish Lennon and Christi Baggett AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL MEMBER Jeff Herrin collects signatures on a civil rights petition in the post office. Amnesty International was formed in the fall of 1982, an extension of the El Salvador Coalition. LOOKING OVER COPY, DAVIDSONIAN Editors Stewart Cauley and Ann Meador make final cor- rections before printing the latest issue.

FEELING A LITTLE CLOSER TO HOME, Masaya Momivama enjoys a chat with Laura Champlain at the International Festival on the Union Patio. In September 1982 we arrived from all over the world with the same purpose: the experience of one year on an Ameri- can campus. We represented six coun- tries: Pakistan, Japan, India, Germany, Spain and France. The reasons of our choice were very similar. We wanted to live on a small campus where it is easier to meet people. This happened to be very successful. We were pleased to see how welcomed we were and how easy it was to talk to the American students and share their nu- merous activities. But it did not take us a long time to experience the disadvan- tages of the small place too: You cannot do anything; the next day everybody talks about it. We all wanted to improve our English. We never imagined how much we could study at Davidson: At the beginning I used to laugh at people when they stopped a conversation and said they had to ' run ' to study; I realized after a few days that they were not kidding! The Honor System was another sur- prise, and we would have never be- lieved it if we did not come to Davidson. The trips we made on vacations taught us that it was not always representative of INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS each year form a close bond among themselves. Andres Sans-Al- varez affectionately embraces friend Marie-Renee Michel. the United States. Studies were not the only motivations of our year here. We also wanted to know what was going on outside the library. We could not spend our time in cafes or pubs. The fraternities and the eating houses took their places rapidly. We were too individualistic to agree with some students who joined the fraternities be- cause they identify themselves to a group. Nevertheless, we did like the so- cial life they created on campus and were happy to join their parties. It was sometimes unpleasant to see the students spending so much time in their studies. Then we saw plays or listened to some concerts and our view changed. We understood that all this work was also the source of a very enjoyable cultural life. By the end of the year, we realized another aspect of our year abroad; we tried to understand our new friends, and make them understand us. This process is certainly the best way to build or mod- el ourselves. This might be the greatest gift that Davidson gave to us. —Marie-Renee Michel Internationals 333 Seniors RECOLLECTIONS The Davidson Experience has actually been a collection of diverse experiences. I know that it has been said before, but above all I value the people I have met, both students and staff that have helped me grow and become my friends over the past four years.

Harwick Charles Hasty Buncie Hay Jeffery Heath McNair Helm Lisa Herard Seniors 343 Seniors pledge $100,000 When it came to selecting a class gift, this year ' s seniors dared to be different. Thev chose to embark on a five-year campaign to raise $100,000 — the largest gift ever given to Davidson by a graduat- ing class. In the fall, in response to a plea for ideas from Class President Sherburne Laughlin, a group of interested seniors formed a committee to investigate gift possibilities. This committee presented the rest of the class with two options: raise money during the year and present the college with a one-time gift, or un- dertake a long-range campaign that would result in a self-perpetuating trust fund. On Nov. 6 the class voted three to one for the latter, and in December it was decided that the money would be used to endow a Class of 1983 Scholarship to be given each year to incoming students on the basis of need. Each member of the class was asked to pledge one percent of his or her adj usted gross income income for June 1983 through December 1987, and more than 50 class members did so even before the campaign ' s offical kick-off in March. The scholarship gift will be formally pre- sented in 1987, the year of the college ' s 150th anniversary. The concept of such an endowed gift from a graduating class is not original, explained Director of Alumni Relations Jamie May, but it is unique for David- son. No class in the history of the school has ever made this significant an effort. Recent federal budget cuts in student financial aid made this scholarship par- ticularly important. As the cost of qual- ity education goes up, the importance of the availability of financial aid and the continuance of our policy of aid-blind admissions increases, said Dr. John Griffith, dean of Admissions and Finan- cial Aid. This assures that students of unusual merit, regardless of their ability to pay, can become members of the stu- dent body. Such policies are necessary if David- son is to increase the diversity of its stu- dent population while maintaining its high academic standards. In giving this scholarship fund to Da- vidson, the Class of 1983 did more than present a token of its appreciation — it gave a sign of its long-term commitment to the College. — Tracy Thompson ON MY HONOR, I pledge to donate $100,000 to the 1983 class gift fund, promise Stan Hynds and Danny Waddill.

McAlister Kevin McDaris Discovering world . . . 1 What if you fall in love with a French- man and stay over there? quipped my grandfather, and everyone laughed, in- cluding me. I expected JYA Montpellier to be a great experience, of course, but I never thought it would drastically alter the course of my life. Neither my grandfather ' s joke nor my expectations came true. I fell in love with a German — in French! From the first time I heard him sing and play the guitar, I knew I was gone. He saw the light in early December when we both attended a ball. Yes, a ball! A French friend had invited us home for the weekend to attend the Fireman ' s Christmas Party. After we had danced together and had discovered many com- mon interests — especially music — we suddenly had a serious conversation. When we each discovered that the other wanted to be a minister, our nationalities and languages faded in importance. Lang age was never a real problem between us; so much can be expressed simply. But as our French improved, so did the depth of our relationship. By the continued on page 348 ON CLOUD NINE, Catherine McMillan enjoys a walk in Toulouse with her fiance Friedrich Stumpf.

Defined as that period during which something ex- ists, namely me. Suddenly I find myself back in a culture where time is money, so you make every second count. The man who gets ahead of the pack is the one who has made every passing mo- ment productive. Davidson, through the quality of her academics, the quantitiy of her workload, and the diversity of her activities, can proudly boast that her stu- dents will be of this nature. The French don ' t seem to interpret that old maxim time or money in the same way. Productive time is not just an outward concept; it is also a reflection of the inner person. The closing of shops and businesses for two to three hours at lunch, the right to five weeks of paid va- cation, the time spent talking of paid va- cation, the time spent talking and laugh- ing at cafes daily — all of these show that the French place more emphasis on time for the individual than we do as Ameri- cans.

Well, I started drinking hot milk, but I refused to give up my razor. The greatest frustration was not being able to speak intelligently with his par- ents: How many brothers and sisters do you have?

And so, as a returning JYAer I must struggle to balance the time I had learned to take for myself while abroad and the time necessary to be a success in the U.S. and at Davidson. Sure I miss the wine, the cheese, the bread, the art, the travel, and all the oth- er good and fun things, but most of all I miss my time. — Jeff Jordan JYA Montpellier JT W+ - AFTER BEING APART FOR A YEAR, Car olyn Scott, home from Germany, and C.iryn Hoskins find it a laughing matter that they now can ' t bear to be apart — especially on ice!

This year ' s question is, What are you going to to do with your life after Davidson? Let ' s see who will win the grand prize: 1st contestant: Sherburne Laughlin. She has accepted a job offer from First Union National Bank. Sherburne will enter the Corporate Development Pro- gram, which will prepare her for a posi- tion possibly in commercial lending. 2nd contestant: Group entry of Eliza- beth McMillan, Stan Hynds, Danny Waddill, Catherine Smith and Mary Frye.

He plans to teach at Port-au- Prince through the Episcopal Church. 7th contestant: A duo of Jeff Herrin and Jeff Dempsey These two carefree spirits drove north simply looking for a town in which to live.

As bells peal Seniors, Spencer say farewell (Taken from The Charlotte Observer.) The ton of bronze carillon bells at DCPC pealed the graduation on May 22 for the Class of 1983, 348 strong. Seniors tossed their mortarboards up toward the branches of lofty oaks and maple trees to end a two-hour ceremony that had been all a commencement could hope to be. In the face of rainy weather, the cere- mony had been slated for the gym. But the pleas of seniors were honored and the ceremony was held outdoors. And, indeed, the skies over northern Meck- lenburg County opened to let sunlight filter down to the more than 3000 gath- ered there. KICKING OFF THE LAST WEEK OF SCHOOL, seniors staged the annual Senior Musical, poking fun of groups and individuals in the process. To smatterings of cheers and applause, the seniors marched forward individual- ly to take diplomas in hand. An occasion- al pair of jeans and sneakers or running shoes showed below the black gowns. Jon Lawry and Mark Sheffield cast aside mortarboards in favor of white and red bicycle helmets, with tassles attached. Richard Wilson, his diploma misplaced for the moment, graciously left the stage empty-handed. T C. Price Zimmermann entertained the crowd with casual quips. Doctor of laws honorary degrees were granted to Davidson alumnus Edward John Mack ' 37 and Charlotte-Mecklen- burg schools Supt. Jay Robinson.
