Perhaps no other time period in the history of the United States has been as hard to characterize as the seventies. During the 50’s and 60’s, the United States en- joyed a period of growth and prosperity. Our influ- ence was felt worldwide as the undisputed king of the hill. Expansion was the key word from business to foreign policy. With the beginning of the seventies, the disillu- sionment of U.S. youth reached its pinnacle. It was the end of the era of growth. Kent State and rising protest against the war in Viet Nam coupled with the debacle of Watergate led to cynicism and distrust of our governmental leaders. Even within the counter- culture itself tragedy manifested in the killings at Al- tamont. The last half of the seventies was a time of regroup- ing and conservation. Energy became the most im- portant thing on people’s minds. Third world coun- tries emerged as the dictators of our own economy. 12 The 70's Increased tension between the United States and the Soviet Union led many to believe that the cold war had returned. Colleges experienced a period of unprecedented growth during the seventies. People of all ages flocked to campuses to better prepare for an increas- ingly competitive job market. Fraternities and sororities rebounded from the de- cline in membership experienced during the late 60’s. Increased involvement however, did not rekin- die old fervor. The student of the seventies has had to become more aware of individual and collective lifestyle. In- creased costs of energy and living expenses have forced an awareness of conservations. The tight job market has made specialization a must and competi- tion a necessity. Survival is guaranteed only to those cognizant of their surroundings. Understanding is the key. - Keith Miles (4) Artwork by Georgia Nagle and jill Millsap Vv 1 Michael R. Snapp 14 Johnson City Nightlife in the big city Where we go when the sun goes down It has been a long day, the muscles in your back are getting tired. Your head is pounding and your eyes are burning from read- ing in poor light. Your body is craving sleep but there is one thing left to do before the night is over. It's about seven thirty or eight and it’s time to head out to the local bar, beer store, club, or dis- co. You drink that desired Bud- weiser, and shake around on the dance floor, loosen up, and tell yourself it’s relaxing. Some dance, some drink, some just sit around talking about the prob- lems of today and forgetting about all schoolwork. There are many spots to choose from in Johnson City. For a quick six-pack or as- sorted items there are many stores within walking distance of the campus. Among the more prominent quick stop shops is RET BTL. HOT ONLY 8S DEPOSIT =a CASE 1.

Students have often left parties and TV programs to make frenzied food and drink runs to the convenience Stores. For those who like to get out with the crowd, get dance — floor — happy feet, and meet new faces — there is the ever- popular Tu La Fe. The fast pace of disco music keeps disco kings, queens, and amateurs on the floor dancing the night away. For others there is the Down Home Pickin’ Parlor where the bluegrass sound of banjo pick- ing and fiddle playing fills the “down home’ setting. Here one can expect to meet many unique and wonderful people. Helping us to get away from it all is what these various night spots are all about, and there is something for everyone close by. Among these local clubs is Super Wheels, where the all ¥ 3 Michael R. Snapp 1. Shamrock is located only minutes from campus. 2.

For the investment of time, money, and new clothes, dance, drink, and com- pany can be had until satisfac- tion or closing time is reached. Of course we can’t forget Poor Richard’s Deli or T.C.’s Pizza. Without their help, many hungry students could have never overcome the late night munchies. It is always good to know there is a place to go to and forget about the day’s problems of passing tests — and just pass time relaxing. Wherever stu- dents meet to pass time it will more than likely be a good time. So we say “thanks, night spots” for giving us good nights out. Paul Banner }) Johnson City 19 The last day of the week A sleepy body rolls over. One reluctant eye slowly opens. The Sunday morning sun flashes past the window shade as the campus yawns and stretches. The true grit of students comes out on Sunday morning. Half the population rolls over and snuggles in the warm covers. The other half, brave souls that they are, decide to confront the cold tile floor and bracing themselves, whip open the shade. Why even get up unless you’re going to church? Where to? You can go to Friendship Baptist, St. Mary's, Central Church of Christ, Midway Presbyte- rian, and many others. But for those of us who don’t go, you may feel there is nothing to do. You’d be surprised. There’s laundry to be done.

But their inner spirits ensue a lively skirmish between the sports-freak spirit and the real man. And who wins? Well, look around one Sunday till you find one caught in the electronic hooks of TV football! or TV hockey! Or maybe students have high and lofty motives for getting up. Unlike the rest of the campus beasts, no mere laundry basket or noisy tube will wrestle you to consciousness. No, these ladies aren’t as base as that. With a stout heart they command an unwilling body, “Get up, you oaf!” What for? They rise and wait for THE CALL that comes like a flash in the dark. “Hellow sweetie-pie, honey bunch, darling baby, lamby chops!” HE called; lovingly, dutifully, across five state lines. The rest of the week is all downhill. Carolyn Stewart © Michael R. Snapp Michael R. Snapp Sunday 21 Room for experience Dormitory life is a stream of various experiences which, at some time, stimulate each of the senses. Where else can you smell sweatty socks and fresh popcorn, both in the same room? Of course, cooking in dorm rooms is against the rules, but so are hall slides and panty raids. Help is never too far away in the dorm. If you're too shy to confront someone you've admired since last quarter, or if the Pepsi machine just took your last dime and you're locked out of your room, don’t panic! Someone will help you. You may seek the as- sistance of your dorm director or RA. Ultimately, dorm life is the experiencing of rela- tionships. With a little effort, most of them can be great! Michael A.

There will always be a part of you nere. . . Interminable. That’s the way it seems when you're starting out, with four long years of study ahead of you. Then suddenly it’s over, and you are taking your diploma from “Art.” You wonder where the time went. It was only yesterday that you received an in- nocuous blue and gold striped acceptance letter welcoming you to your future. Remember? Choosing a major. . . all the temptations to stick with Undecided forever. The invitations to scout the Greek organizations. Coming for orientation. . . the speakers, facts, figures, and faces, all telling you what to do, how to do it, and who to see about it. Your first session with your freshman advisor .. . he had to fill out your cards because you didn’t know what was going on. Your life will never be the same from these experiences, these choices. You've waited for the last time in endless lines leading to the shrine of the computer terminals. Held your breath for the last time waiting to see if your classes were full. Paid your last fees. Moved in and out of the dorm with your entire life for the final time. Met and left your last roommate. It's over. You’re graduating from learning about it to doing it. And you hope you are pre- pared for the “future shock” ahead of you. You'll miss it. Friends just down the hall.

Students consistently complain about the quality of the food, but most agree that the cooks are not to blame. As one student put it, “It’s not their fault they have to keep reheating left-overs.” The dining service, run by ARA Food Services, has received much bad publicity about its food and op- erations. Students have affectionately nicknamed the Grill the “Scarf and Barf’ and the Rathskeller the “Rat dining Pit.” Owing much of the complaints to the monotony of the menu items, ARA has offered the students variety by opening a new Deli and a pizza parlor. Along with the regular services, a few “gourmet” dinners featuring items such as rib-eye steak, stuffed pork-chop, and roast duck have been served. When student apathy is at its peak, what better way to sum it up than with one student's ho-hum attitude of the food. “It isn’t all that great, but at least it ain't dog food.” Lee Pierce Tanya Green Tanya Green nya Green aA I re | ARA 31 32 Bookstore The necessity shop If you want to meet people, the place to be is the University Bookstore. With its advantageous location in the middle of the Student Center, the bookstore is always busy. Students and faculty rush to obtain books and materials necessary for their classes. The University Bookstore carries all required text- books, general reading books, and magazines. They also stock a full range of school supplies and specialized materials for course offerings. In addition, directly related to the student’s required work, the Bookstore has greeting cards, cosmetics, college novelities, records, and gifts. The University Bookstore buys its supplies from college oriented manufactures. These manufacturers keep in touch with the college and university stu- Michael R. Snapp dents wants and needs. Supplies are either pre- priced by the manufacturer or the Bookstore uses the manufacturers recommended retail prices. Bookstore carries many items not available in other stores. The Bookstore must be self-supporting because the State of Tennessee does not subsidize any bookstore operations. Expenses must be paid for from any surplus made by the store. Store expenses include operating costs and staff salaries. Should there be a profit, it is put into the general Operating fund of the university. This fund provides for campus improvement, student activities, and scholarships. Jack Hensley Michael R.

He plays first string fullback and second string goalie for the uni- versity’s soccer team. When Eddie started here, he had no in- tention of playing team soccer. He’d been on the swimming team in high school, but we don’t have one. He played soc- cer to stay in shape. He has also practied with the Athletes In Ac- tion soccer team and has been asked to try out for the team after graduation. Eddie is a speech major and debating is another one of his in- terest. He joined the Forensic team last year and has won 34 Eddie Rasnake many honors. Some of these are: second place in debating (1978), receiving third best speaker award at the state tour- nament in 1978, and receiving the outstanding speaker award at the international debate in 1979. Eddie has hopes of par- ticipating in a competition at Harvard this spring. He has yet another very spe- cial interest. As a part-time job, he drives a school bus for Dawn of Hope. He began driving the bus last year when he substi- tuted for his roommate. The first time he drove the bus, he fell in love with the kids. Eddie says he really enjoys working with chil- dren who are less fortunate than he. He sees this, “as an oppor- tunity to be myself and not worry about what people think.” Eddie became a Christian dur- ing his freshman year through Campus Crusade for Christ. Since then, Eddie has become a very active member in this movement, learning about lead- ership through Campus Crusade, Eddie has participated in two of their summer projects and plans to have full-time chris- tian ministry upon graduation.

Well, | will give you a few hints. He wears glasses, has a white beard, car- ries a camera to every game, and plays Santa Claus. Ray Pope is the one. He missed one football game and since January not a single bas- ketball game. PAE Ray Pope, a native of Ken- tucky, presently resides in Johnson City. He came to Jeffer- son in 1933 to work for the power production of TVA. Pope became seriously interested in photography in 1971 when he took his first class here. Up to this year, he has taken 56 hours in photography. He has continuously contri- buted photographs to the Jaydessojoyud snvyj e}UeS OUT Bucaneer and was an East Ten- nessean staff member for two years. He has also given enjoy- able times to many folks as Santa Claus. Sports photography is not his only hobby, he also enjoys out- door photography and making furniture and other designs from wood. Claudia Rodriguez 4 Ray Pope 35 Starting footballer named All Academic Footballer Jay Patterson earned something no other Buc had ever received — the honor of being named to the Southern Conference All Aca- demic Team. The honor came in late De- cember when the 6’6” 230 pound sophomore’ was named to the 13 man All Aca- demic Squad composed of Southern Conference athletes. Patterson, a pre-med stu- dent, had the highest average of any player on the squad with a 3.9 out of a possible 4.0. Starting for the Bucs in his first two seasons with the team, provided a valuable asset at the offensive tackle position. Previously, he played foot- ball and wrestled at Morris- town West High School, where he received All- Conference honors in football and was selected _ AIll- Conference and All-District and placed second in the re- gion in wrestling. : : Cyndy Brooks ‘4 Tanya Green 36 Jay Patterson Tanya Green Why do foreigners come here to study? Family, friends, coinci- dence and a place conducive to study are factors that attract a foreigner to this area. For Ethan and Jackie Bain, na- tives of Freeport, Bahamas, coincidence was the reason they came. At home, four professors and the chairman of Department of Health Sciences conducted a Health seminar in the Bahamas. it was set up by the Johnson City Health Organization and the Ministry of Health in the Bahamas. Ethan received a two and a half year scholarship from the Ministry of Health in the Bahamas to persue his studies in Environmental Health. He arrived in the Fall of °77. Previous to leaving, he worked for 15 years as a Senior Health Officer in the Bahamas. Jacki e and their two year old daughter Tangee arrived in the Spring of °78. Jackie enrolled as an ac- SIQUILO] DDULISIP-SUOT countant major. In her first year, she was a member of the freshman honor society, Alpha Lambda Delta, but being a stu- dent, housewife, and mother lim- ited outside activity. Ethan is a member of President’s Pride, Environmental Health Club, Epsi- lon Nu Eta honor society and the Foreign Student Organization. Claudia Rodriguez The Bains 37 Which comes first? Mark Hutsell or SUCCESS He was named All Southern Conference Offensive Player, Associated Press International Offensive Player of the Week, 2000 yard passer for the last two years, and invited to compete in the 42nd annual Blue and Gray All-American game in 1979. He is Mark Hutsell and these accomplishments only name a few of his endeavors. Mark, a 6-1, 190-pounder from Orlando, Florida, finished the 1978 season ranked eighth in the nation in passing and eighth in total offense. He completed 171 passes of 294 attempts for 2,160 yards and 14 touchdowns for an average of 15.5 completions per game. He had 2,318 yards in total offense for an average of 210.7. The 1979 season showed him ranked ninth in the nation in passing completing 186 out of 302 passes for a total of 2,276 yards and 17 touchdowns for an average of 16.9 completions per game. Mark said, “I like to guess what plays the coach will call during the game.” Mark enjoys all sports; including billiards, golf, tubing and other water sports. Everytime he visits the Sport Information Center, there’s candy waiting on him. Being a long way from home is eased because according to Mark, “‘ enjoy East Tennessee, the people are friendly and the mountains are beautiful.” Mark attributes much of his determination to his early years, when his father would take him 38 Mark Hutsell out and throw with him. His father showed interest in Mark’s learning to throw. “I believe that when | have kids, | want to involve them in athletics because it teaches discipline. When practice is boring but you have to keep at it, you become disciplined. It will help me later in life whether I’m playing pro football or coaching.” Mark also said that he feels sports, Photo lab especially football is good because it keeps kids off the Streets. Mark agreed that football is turning around for us. “It was a thrill to see the Dome filled during Homecoming. | was glad to see the season to well and the fans support the team.” If everything he’s done is any indication of his chances of success, he’s well on his way.

She is double major- ring in English and speech, and minoring in psychology. Marsha is always friendly and she shows an exhuberance for living. These qualities reflect in her industri- ousness through everything she does. Marsha has a 3.7 average, is a member of President's Pride and Alpha Lambda Delta, and has been recognized in Who's Who Mark Woods Among American Colleges and Universities. Besides her aca- demic accomplishments, Marsha is involved in campus activities as well. She is presi- dent of the Residence Hall As- sociation, a senator in SGA, member of the English Group, and involved in selecting mate- rial for the Mockingbird. Marsha works as a tutor in English De- partment and the library. Her other interests include jogging, playing tennis, traveling, read- ing, and meeting people. Because Marsha enjoys get- ting to know people and work- ing with them, she hopes to teach English or speech on the high school level. She also wants to get a master’s degree and eventually a doctorate. With all these qualities and ac- complishments in mind, it is easy to realize that she is the type of person who gets things done.

Helping people to overcome their problem attitude was one of the objectives of Handicap Awareness Days, held Feb. 19-22. This year, exhibits, films, activities and panel discussions provided the campus community with a better understand- ing of the difficulties faced by the handicapped. One of the highlights of the four-day event was a wheel- chair basketball game between the football Bucs and the Music City Wheelers, past champions of the Wheelchair Olympics. Despite a 40-point advantage given to the Buc squad the Wheelers rolled over the Bucs 48-44. Photo lab 40 Handicap Awareness Days Another highlight was a performance by the National Theatre of the Deaf, which provided a moving and educa- tional experience. A large percentage of the audience were deaf or used sign language. For two days, exhibits were set up in and around the stu- dent center by various groups in the area. A wheelchair obs- tacle course and a demonstration of the functioning of the Johnson City transit bus hydraulic lifts and wheelchair facilities were among the exhibits. Several panel discussions were also held with topics rang- ing from “Functioning: The Handicapped Individual in an Able-bodied Society” to “Relating: Invisible Barriers to the Handicapped” and “The Handicapped Non-Handicapped Marriage.” Cathy Buchanan) Photo lab Photo lab Handicap Awareness Days 41 —C OO LS PELE Photo lab 42 Handicap Awareness Days 9 lab t¢ Handicap Awareness Days 43 LICK — the true campus spirit If you wish to consult the oldest member of the Department of Sass Communications you fon’t find her listed in the catalog or directory.

Conductor Robert Shaw led a sparkling rendition of Wagner's Overture to “Tannhauser,” and Rachmaninoff s Concerto No. 2in C minor. After the intermission, the orchestra concluded their performance with Symphony No. 2 in D Major, Op. 73; by Brahms. The concert was part of the “Performing Arts Series” sponsored by UCPC. Alan Broyles 2 The following evening as the sun’s final rays faded into darkness, voices that were filled with anticipation began discussing the Homecoming concert. It was strange to visualize the dome, symbolic of our athletics, as a concerthall. Inside some changes had taken place. There were chairs in front of the stage on the 50 yard line. Spotlights lined the railings. Livingston Taylor's opening was good but did not capture the audience. Backed only by his guitar, his style had an intimate and emotional appeal suitable for a coffeehouse. He appealed to the crowd when he put aside his guitar for a banjo and some traditional b luegrass picking. He left the wudience wanting more, but veryone had come to see Ronnie § ilsap. hael R. Snapp 3 Ne Ronnie gave a vibrant performance. The sustained power of his voice was overwhelming in volume and range. The audience responded to his first song, “What a Difference You've Made In My Life” and stayed with him. Highlighting the performance were Milsap’s tributes to early influences on his life. He powerfully performed “Jailhouse Rock” by Elvis Presley, “Blueberry Hill’ by Fats Domino, “Georgia by Ray Charles, and “Great Balls of Fire” by Jerry Lee Lewis. Everyone loved his rendition of Hank Williams’ “Kawliga”’ and the selections from his new album. Ronnie's concert must rate as one of the better attractions sponsored by UCPC, despite the poor attendance. The Homecoming show proved the suitability of the Dome as a concert hall and provided a large backdrop for an extremely strong performance. Emcee Alex Houston and his “friend” Elmer gave a rollicking intermission that loosened the audience with laughter. Those who did not attend this production missed some great music. Michael R.

The Homecoming Court consisted of first runner-up Sandy Nelson, sponsored by Browning and Stone Halls; second runner-up Tammy jo Justice, sponsored by TKE-KD; third runner-up Marsha Barrett, sponsored by the Resident Hall Association; fourth runner-up Debbie Cassity, sponsored by PKA-ADPi; and Kim Star, representing the Kingsport Center. The climate-controlled comfort of Memorial Center was a welcome re- lief to the record crowd of 12,331. They gathered to cheer the Bucs onin their conference game with UT- Chatanooga. Fans werent disap- pointed as the Mocs were handed their first defeat of the season 35-0. Enthusiasm was high as we piled on the touchdowns to win the first homecoming game in over 10 years. Wet tissue paper and mayjorettes in foul-weather gear symbolized the homecoming parade held earlier that day. The parade trudged through the deluge that flowed through Johnson City’s winding streets. Many found refuge under umbrel- las while others braved the rain to ride floats and wave cheerfully at the crowd. The SAE-Phi Mu float took first place in the competition, with the PKA-ADPi entry taking second, and Sigma Chi-Sigma Kappa and TKE-KD tying for third. Another week had passed and Homecoming was over; all we had left were visions of rain, concertos, and winning. What we had to give for success we had gained in satisfac- tion.

Sponsored by UPCP and the Black Affairs Association for the third year, Black History Aware- ness has presented programs on black culture and gospel music. The Gospel Expo was held on February 10th with special guest soloist, Sylvia Lewis. She was given a_ standing ovation. Churches from the Tri-Cities provided music both a cappella Photo lab and with accompaniment. Black History Talent Night, as well as an evening of skit presentations were held. The skits, by black students depicted the lifestyle of blacks in the early 1900's, slavery, and the move- ment for equal rights. The theme ‘a Voice Unheard is Progress Unfulfilled” was the theme this year for Black History month. Students and faculty on Feb- ruary 12th were treated to vari- ous aspects of black history through blues music, sketches of black historians, and talks by Larry Bowers and William Cap- Saw. Spring quarter brought the appearance by Bond, a Georgia state legislator active in many matters that concern blacks.

Snapp Quaye Chapman is a person who is open to all experiences. She exudes an aura of self-confidence, natural curiosity, and warmth. A Water Valley, Mississippi native, Quaye has served as Assistant Director of the Student Center since 1977. Her duties consist of coordinating activities at the Center and advising the University Center Programming Committee. Quaye also serves as advisor to the Black Affairs Association and the cheerleaders. “It's rewarding,” she said, “just to get to know people. I like to show the things I’ve picked up along the way.” Quaye holds a Bachelor's Degree in Political Science from the University of Mississippi. After graduating in 1974, she worked there as Admissions Counselor, traveling to high schools across the state. “Too few students see college as the total learning experience that it can be,” said Quaye. She views her current position as a vehicle to help students become aware of all the opportunities the college can provide. “T want students to be able to see the advantages of being involved,” she said. Student involvement is _currently one of the largest problems on campus. Quaye feels that too few students determine the activities at the center. She hopes to get more students involved in future programming. Quaye’'s hobbies include reading, tennis, listening to music and writing. Writing will be an important part of her future. She plans to incorporate her studies and work experience with her perspective of black growth and development to further the identity of blacks in today’s society. “I'm intrigued by what happened in the 50's and GO0’s, “she said.” In the meantime, Quaye is dedicating her talents to bringing the totality of the college experience to students on this campus.

Its purpose is to provide a wide range of professional services to those who are de- velopmentally disabled and to help them develop to their fullest potential. Also, the Dawn of Hope enables students majoring in special education or communicative disorders an opportunity to gain experience working with the re- tarded. Majors in communicative disorders are able to do clinical work at the Dawn of Hope. They assist the therapist in correcting problems of special hear- ing, language, or other communication problems.

DeRosier and the student gov- ernment combine the effort to provide a chance for students to ask questions directed at Dr. DeRosier. After a survey was taken by the SGA office during winter quarter, one was held in the spring. if you find yourself in trouble you may be facing the student court or the judicial committee. The student court is chaired by the Chief Justice, Mike Edmonds, who is a member of SGA. The other members are Students. According to Sally Thomas, student development coordinator, the student court is only one branch of the system. A Routing Committee determines whether the student court or judicial committee hears the case. “Basically the courts are for hearing student discip- linary problems on campus and is based on trials by Peers, which are more difficult but fairer,’ Thomas said. “It’s harder and takes a mature person to be on the court system. It’s an uneasy and unpleasant task.” - The process for going through student court begins with Thomas. She talks to the students to ac- quire their signature on a waiver which much also be signed by the university. This releases the right to take the case downtown. It is then heard by the uni- versity judicial system. Ms. Thomas goes with the student to the commit- tee to introduce them. The committee asks the stu- dent questions and after he leaves reaches a decision for disciplinary action. Some cases are not heard by the student court but by the judicial committee. As in a suspension case, the student court can only recommend a suspension to the judicial committee. So be aware that you will be judged by your peers when involved in a disciplinary problem within the university.

This organization, which is in its fifth year, was es- tablished to ensure the faculty's voice in academic matters. Through the Senate, members are able to be more actively involved in decisions concerning aca- demics and faculty welfare. They make recommen- dations in regard to matters of concern to the faculty which are given consideration by the administration. The Faculty Senate is made up of 45 members who are elected for terms of three years and represent various colleges of the school within the university. Current officers are Dale Schmitt, president; James Perry, vice-president; Wendell Hester, secretary; and Photo lab Photo lab William Fisher, treasurer. Committees of the Senate include the Executive Committee, Faculty Concerns and Grievance Committee, and ad hoc committees. Dr. Schmitt, president of the Senate, feels the or-. ganization has been beneficial up to this point. He criticized administrators, saying often times they ig- nore recommendations made by the Faculty Senate. Schmitt added that because of this, the Senate had not had much chance of showing its incentive. One thing he would like to see improved is the interaction between members of the Senate and the faculty. Schmitt also said the Faculty Senate should work together in an effort to have more input and bring about more change in matters of importance.

The two comic operas, in English, were presented nightly featuring students in the department of music. Robert LaPella was the producer and musical director, and Bette Benjamin Fleming was the stage director. Gian Carlo Menotti was commissioned by NBC to write “The Old Maid and the Thief’. The old maid, Miss Todd, welcomes a beggar, Bob, into her home as a permanent lodger. She and her maid, Laetitia, treat him royally, but in their efforts to satisfy his needs, they resort to stealing. When neighbors suspect the beggar of being a thief, Miss Todd urges him to escape. But he insists that he is innocent and that Miss Todd must pay for her crimes. Disillusioned, Miss Todd goes to the police. While she is gone, Bob escapes with Laetitia, carrying away everything portable. Miss Todd was portrayed by Deborah Eller whose outstanding soprano voice has been heard in many leading roles in other productions. Laetitia was ably sung by Kathy May, making her second appearance. Sam Wagner, who has been heard in several opera productions, was strong in his portrayal of Bob. Miss Pinkerton was the “nosey neighbor’ sung by Mar- garet Shell, her first appearance with Opera Theatre. 90 Opera Theatre !.

Written specif- ically as acompanion piece for other operas of mod- est length, “Sunday Excursion” dips freely into nos- talgia, recollection of early innocence, youthful agony, and peppermint stick sophistication. The four young passengers were played by Sandra Morefield, Cheryl Pigott, Roby Daniels, and Gary Trammell, all new to the Opera Theatre.

The story concerns two sis- ters, Mrs. Bela Orban, a widow determined that life is not yet over for her, and Giza, a very proper semi- invalid who is presiding over her son's estate in a distant city. The Hungarian playwright, Istvan Or- keney, uses monologues to represent the letters that are written by the two sisters. A strange triangle results from Mrs. Orban's in- volvement with Victor Vivelli, an over-the-hill opera star determined to make a come-back, and Paula, a catty socialite who poses as Mrs. Orban’s friend to lure Vivelli away from her. The play moves swiftly as letters offering news and advice circulate between the two sisters. The situa- tion becomes more complicated as Mrs. Orban's daughter Ilona and her husband, Yoshka are drawn into the wild goings-on. When Vivelli dumps Mrs. Orban to marry Paula, she goes into a deep depression and contemplates suicide. She is saved by a letter from Mousie, a wacky but good-hearted boarder of Mrs. Orban’s. The two sisters reconcile their differences and viewpoints on life and love, and together start a new life at their ancestral home.

Of course there is no such thing, but the political science department comes pretty close with its master of city management program. The MCM program requires one and one half years of interdisciplinary course work culminating ina 6 month internship. So far, program graduates have had pretty good luck landing jobs in their field with approximately 50 per cent as city managers. But it gets better. 100 per cent are employed, no small feat in itself. And even more good news, whereas the field has traditionally been 98 per cent white males, it is now opening up for women and minorities. Michael R. Snapp High job placement The political science department also sponsors students for the Tennessee Legislative Internship Program. Students must be Tennessee citizens, have a good academic record, and evidence potential for research to qualify. After winning approval from the political science department and the internship committee in Nashville, interns are appointed for the duration of the year’s legislative session.

Lisa Yelton, a senior in social work from Johnson City, worked at the Department of Human Services (welfare) this quarter. She and eight other students who work there were given regular social work cases — records of individual clients or whole families. The cases were read to find out what was needed: employment, housing, food stamps, or medicare. Lisa had five cases. “I had one client,” she said, “who was trying to find a better home. | had a list of different types of hous- ing available to low-income families. | went through all the sources to see what was available for her.” Two visits a week were made by Lisa to each of her cases. “I'd go and talk to them and ask them if they had any problems. Some of them needed to visit the doctor. A lot of times I'd let the client direct the conversation. Some of them are quiet and I'd have to say things to bring them out.” The only thing she didn’t like was the shortness of winter quarter. She said she only got to know the clients before it was over. “Some of them asked me to come and visit them after the quarter is over,’ she added. Lisa enjoyed her work enough to want another job at a human services department. “I'll probably have to go out of this area because the job market around here is pretty full.” Only seniors are placed in these work positions. They work 40 hours a week for 16 hours credit, and no pay. There are about 30 agencies that employ the field experience students. Robert Lewis, director of the program, said stu- clents go to work at the welfare department, the Vet- erans Administration Medical Center, mental hospi- tals, mental health centers, and school systems. The ull program began in the early ’70s and approxi- mately 21 students per quarter have participated this year. The number of students who Stay in the social work area is high, according to Lewis. He estimates that a minimum of 75 percent will make it their ca- reer. To get a taste of being a social worker, a student may deal with school children. In the school situation, a teacher may refer a child who is an underachiever, ¥ = or has behavior problems to an agency. Lewis pointed out that teachers may pick-up some ovbious signs, such as malnutrition. “The social worker attempts to do what he or she can with the child. Often this involves the whole fam- ily. A lot of times the social worker is referring the child and or the whole family to other agencies,” Lewis said. Students are occasionally placed at juvenile courts. They work with youthful offenders who are on detention or probation. Besides the on-hand experiences with clients, Lewis says students improve their professional rela- tionships and communication skills. They learn how to work with peers and supervisors. “This does a lot to get them ready for social work after graduation or entry in grad school.” Carolyn Stewart Photo lab Social Work 107 Back Home Again The newly renovated business building once again inhabits its college. Those same old walls have taken on a new face. All the business majors are glad to be home. The college includes five departments. The Department of Accountancy is chaired by Dr. James H.

It not only embraces the fields of industrial arts, technol- ogy, and education, but also includes home econom- ics, military science, and computer and information services. The department of computer and information ser- vices, chaired by Dr. Gordon L. Bailes, offers three major options. These options include computer ap- plications relating to business, systems develop- ment, graduate studies, computational mathematics, and systems programming. Dr. Sue B. Mays is the chai rman of the department of home economics. The department offers a B.S. degree with three major options to pursue. These include General Home Economics, Foods Systems Management, and Vocational Home Economics Ed- ucation. The department of industrial educations primary objective is to provide instructors in the field of in- dustrial arts. The department is chaired by Dr. Charles H. Story. The department offers a B.S. and a masters degree in the field. The department of military science does not offer an academic major but completion of the program allows the student to be commissioned as an officer in the U.S. Army. The program is administered in co-operation with the U.S. Army. Lieutenant Colonel Joel R. Parker serves as chairman for the department.

One major change was the selection of Dr. Thomas Huang as department chairman. Also this year many physical changes occurred. The labs were repainted and remodeled to better serve the studen ts’ needs. Emergency showers, eyewashes, and new exhaust hoods were installed to allow safer mixing of volatile and hazardous chemi- cals. New books were used and the course structure was modified. The move to the semester system caused the curriculum to be expanded or shortened to fit new scheduling requirements. More students enrolled in chemistry classes due to the Med School. The growth is expected to continue with larger interest in the scientific and technical fields. The Department of Biological Sciences recently underwent reconstruction; biology, health sciences and part of general science merged. Along with the new name, the department received a new chairman, Dr. Robert Samuels. He is the head of 35 staff mem- bers and his speciality is protozoology. Dr. John Moore, a parasite physiologist, is working on a research project on the effects of bile on the metabolism of tapeworms living in mice. Other re- search projects include “Phearemons and Mice,” “Biomass,” and “protoruns.” Others are doing re- search on the genetic defects in fruit flies, because they are easy to keep. Another biologist is working on a dictionary of ecology words, how they are used, and what they really deal with in ecology. The department has also been working with the Med School to collaborate and cross list some courses. 114 Sciences Becky Elliot Michael R. Snapp Michael R. Snapp The physics department is relatively small as are many of the physics departments in small univer- sities. Generally, large engineering departments support large physics departments. There are four full-time faculty members: Dr. Harry Powell, Dr. Jim Miller, Dr. Dave Close, and Dr. LF. Collins, who chairs the department. Dr. Gary Walters, the assistant director of the Kingsport Center, aids the department with his background in physics. Dr. Close is a bio-physicist doing radiation damage studies of molecules. The research is designed to help determine how radiation damage occurs in biological specimens, particularly molecules like DNA. Dr. Powell and Dr. Miller have the same re- search background specialty as Dr. Close. Dr. Collins is the supportive effort of the faculty and is hopeful of the department's growth. According to Dr. Collins, physics is the most basic and most mathematical of all the sciences. It is essen- tially fundamental to all other sciences. There are many topics in the general subject of physics like astronomy, mechanics, heat transfer, solid-state, thermo-dynamics, atomic, nuclear, electricity, mag- netism, optics, and applications. Most engineering is applied physics. The department graduates about four to five stu- dents per year. There are about 25-30 majors be- tween freshman and graduate level.

They happen to be dental hygiene students. “I pick teeth for a living” is their motto and they can be seen in action at the Dental Hygiene Clinic. The clinic, situated in the back of the Health Build- ing, serves two important functions: aiding the dental hygiene students to practice and improve their skills, and serving the public by providing dental health care ata relatively low cost. The clinic is open to the community as well as students and faculty. Each patient is given a thorough examination and taught to properly care for his or her teeth. Afterwards, the patient’s teeth are cleaned. This is more involved than it sounds, requiring scaling and polishing the teeth, followed by a fluoride treat- ment. If decay is suspected between the teeth, x-rays are made. Patients requiring more extensive treat- ment are referred to a dentist. Other services provided by the Dental Hygiene Clinic include programs in patient education for community groups. Clinic tours and films bring den- tal hygiene “alive” for school groups and senior citi- zens.

The clinic ministers to the daily health needs of the university. Illnesses and emergencies are the routine for the clinic as the patients file inside for medical aid. The clinic also acts in cooperation with the City- County Department of Public Health in administering vaccinations and serums for immunization. In cases where emergency treatment is needed outside regular office hours, a registered nurse is on call 24 hours a day. Jack L.

Located in the old gym, police headquarters in- clude two offices, complete with dispatch equip- ment and an emergency call-in line. Staffed with 17 full-time officers, the campus force is charged with the responsibility of protecting life and property, according to Long. In addition to the 17 full-time officers, the campus force has nine stu- dent officers who are responsible for dorm security and dispatching officers. Basic responsibilities of the campus force include Michael R. Snapp investigation of campus crimes. ticketing of illegally parked cars, assisting citizens who need aid, and helping city police from time to time. Due to a $4,000 federal grant received this year, police were able to offer several crime prevention programs to the campus community. Among those offered were rape seminars, Operation I.D., and bicy- cle days. Commenting on the performance of campus police officers, Long said, “I think our officers show a great deal more control and use a lot more finesse in dealing with people than some other agencies ao.” Cathy Buchanan ) Michael R.

Well, rest assured, the housing people have. “It doesn’t bother me that much, who it really gets are the assignment people,” Director of Housing Harry Steele said. “It keeps them really busy.” According to Miss Burchett, coordinator for resi- dence hall life, the students are provided with a bed, drapes, chairs and a dresser. “We try to work with the students in assigning them to the dorm they want,” Burchett said. “Espe- cially when two people want to room together.” According to Burchett the policy for reassigning rooms, is done in two Stages. The first week of each quarter, students can move within the dorm through the director. “This,” said Burchett, “is done in as little moves as possible.” During the second week of each quarter, students can change dorms by going through the Housing Michael R. Snapp 132 Housing Office, “but after the second week there is no chance of changing unless circumstances like roommate problems occu r,” Burchett said. “l like for people to try and work out their prob- lems first,” Burchett said. Dealing with personalities is difficult because roommates are very close she said. Burchett said she feels the RA has one of the most important functions in dorm life. “They’re the arms and legs of me.” According to Burchett, RA’s should be a referral service, enforce dorm laws and be a friend who will listen, talk and sometimes refer a person to the counseling center. “Sometimes an RA can pick up on a problem,” Burchett said, “and bring a potential problem to a head before it boils over.” So if you find yourself with a housing problem, be patient because they will try to take care of you if they can. Pamela Curtiss and Roger Hyneman (5) Michael R. Snapp They do everything they can to help us The Financial Aids Office is one of our key institu- tions. Its prime function is to help students establish themselves financially while attending college. The office is headed by Dr. Perry Counts and staffed with two other professionals, Pat Shannon and Becky Por- ter. The majority of the paperwork is handled by four full-time clerical employees who are assisted by five student workers. They are located in room 306 of the Administration building. Nearly half of 10,000 students are on some form of financial aid. “The sad part,’ according to Pat Shannon, “is that nearly three-fourths of our students qualify for some kind of aid” and they fail to apply. The university offers three basic types of financial aid: grants and scholarships (which are gifts to the students), work programs (where students receive pay as campus employees), and loans. According to Mr. Shannon, we have nearly 2500 students involved in the programs offering grants and scholarshi ps. Scholarships are offered for various academic and athletic achievements. Grants are of- fered under six different programs, the largest being the Basic Educational Opportunity Grant (BEOG) sponsored by the federal government. The next largest is, Tennessee Student Assistance award (TSAA), which is a state grant for Tennessee resi- dents. Third in line is, Supplementary Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG) is administered under the auspeces of the federal government. Grants are also available to students involved in law, nursing and ath- letics. The Work Programs have been extended to 1800 students. The Work Scholarship Program (WSP) in- volves students with a rank of one or two in their High School or an ACT composite of 24. This pro- gram provides advance credit on fees in return for work in various departments throughout the cam- pus. The College Work Scholarship Program (WSP) and the Regular Work Scholarship Program (RWSP) provide job opportunities for students interested in funding their educational endeavors through univer- sity employment. Nearly 1500 students find it necessary to finance their education through loans. The Financial Aids Of- fice has several programs for obtaining loans: ETSU Loan Fund, Guaranteed Student Loan Program (GSLP), Law Enforcement Loan (LEEP), Nat'l Direct Student Loan (NDSL) and the Nursing Student Loan Program (NSLP). Most of the loans for students are coordinated through local banks by the students and the Financial Aids Office. Financial aid is available to nearly everyone, but overlooked by many. Some students who have fi- nancial aid applied for it in High School, and reapply each year. The best assurance of receiving financial aid on time is to apply in Winter for Fall of the follow- ing year. The process for applying has been simplified in order to help the efficiency by which financial aid is distributed. All interested students now only need to fill out one form which supplies all the necessary information. When asked how the office felt when they had to turn someone down for financial aid, Mr. Shannon answered, “How would you feel if someone came to you for help and you couldn't give it?” The staff at the Financial Aids Office does everything possible for students who need financial assistance. But despite their attempts, nearly one-tenth still walk away, not qualifying for assistance. The Financial Aids Office would like to encourage anyone who has questions to see them. They are willing to try to help students overcome financial bar- riers in pursuit of an education. P David Day ) Financial Aides 133 Michael R. Snapp 134 Registration Terminal operators are people too Waiting in line to register can be a depressing situ- ation. You stand there with no identity like another head of cattle to be processed. You shuffle forward a few feet everytime the line moves. Since anger loves a target, you look up and down the line. Nothing here but cattle. You peer up at the door where the line seems to be taking you. The targets of your anger are probably innocent student workers. They have been sitting at a com- puter terminal several hours and possibly developed a lower back throb and hardening of the typing fin- gers. “We are as anxious to get them registered and through the line, as they are,” one student worker commented. He complained that they receive flak for things over which they have no control such as; the amount of time it takes to register someone, the frequency of computer shutdowns, and even the high price of dropping and adding classes. “One time a guy came in here to pay his drop fee with 500 pennies,” the student worker recalled. “It was his personal protest against the system.” He recalled another time when he had nearly finished processing a student’s registration, and the computer decided to shut down for thirty minutes. Needless to say, much grumbling erupted from the ranks of cattle outside. Besides the pleasantries of anger and abuse, stu- dent workers at the registration terminals have the privilege of witnessing the ingenious excuses college minds produce in order to avoid registration hassles. Once a student approached the computer and discovered that his ID card had been left in his car in Knoxville. He wondered if he might be made an ex- ception and not have to use his ID to register. After some discussion he was convinced that no exceptions would be made, and that he would have to make the 200 mile round trip to Knoxville for his ID. Thirty minutes later he returned with the ID card — no doubt after having made a world record, speed of sound journey. Jeff Vernon ©) Michael R. Snapp Death is “a natural part of life” Death creates a morbid, frightening image in some minds. It is faced only when its reality touches some- one close. Dr. Robert Patton and Dr. Bill Cissell of the Health Education Department are trying to help students overcome this attitude and accept death as “a natu- ral part of life.” To this end, they are instructors in Thanatology 4350, a course on death and dying. The class is one of the first of its kind in the nation. it was developed from student demand about six years ago by Dr. John Froggatt, who was then a member of the department staff. Since that time, Thanatology has increased to two times per quarter. Some things considered in the class are biological, sociological, and philosophical aspects of the pro- cesses of death and dying; the American attitude to- ward death; medical, legal, and religious views of de- ath; and discussions on euthanasia and the hospice movement. Supplementing class discussions, guest speakers, and research papers, an opportunity is provided for students to express themselves creatively on death through poetry, essays, art, music, and other means. Dr. Cissell hopes to someday compile an anthology of creative student work. When students have completed Thanatology, Dr. Patton and Dr. Cissell hope a realization of death's natural place in life has been gained. Students should no longer see death as injustice or a social disease. They should be able to discuss it comfortably, and handle the business aspects of it rationally if some- one they love dies.

Academic counseling is available for students hav- ing problems with their classes. If tutoring is needed, the student is referred to the department teaching the subject. A broad, more general tutoring program is also available at the counseling center. Students may come to the counseling center with personal problems, stemming from arguments with a rommmate to marital problems. All conferences are confidential. The counseling center has a section devoted to career planning, in which they provide testing to de- termine aptitude and interests. The results are used to determine the job a person is suited for, by temp- erament and by aptitude. Wage information and job opportunities are also provided. Students who visit the center vary. Over seventy- five percent of them have better than a C academic average. Men use the center more than women. Over one half of those using the center are under- classmen; others include upperclassmen, graduate students, and non-students. Jack Pritchard 5) Michael R.

Completing the representation of the three major groups on campus, the staff senate joins the faculty and student senates as a voice in the policy making of the university. According to the first president of the senate, Louise Garrett, Dental Hygiene, the body is 18 months old and has 30 senators. The constitution of the staff senate has been ap- proved by the State Board of Regents. It states that the senate is, “To provide a means for assuring for- mal, systematic, and continual channels of communi- cation through which the nonfaculty and nonstudent components of this University participate meaning- fully in the study and discussion of problems, situa- tions, and opportunities relating to them.” For the first two years of operation the members of the body were appointed, according to Garrett, but in the future elections will be held. The President Elect is Bill France, Maintenance. Other officers are Marie Buckingham — Secretary, Donald Haulsee — Treasurer, and Helen Rosenberry — Reporter. Buckingham is from Library Administra- tion, Haulsee is from the Medical School, and Rosen- berry is from the Museum. Garrett said that before this innovation the staff had very little representation in the policy making avenues of the university. Also the members of the senate serve On many university committees. The body has a unique staggered election system so there will be continuity from year to year. Bill Fletcher ) Faculty Senate 137 Building funds for university needs What is a foundation? Is it some type of make-up? Does it have anything to do with building a house? No, Foundation is a non-profit group organized to raise funds for the university. Through solicitations of alumni, industries, and a nationwide Telefund, the Foundation raises money for more than 190 university related funds. Dona- tions to the Foundation can be specific or general, and are tax-deductible. In 1979 the Foundation gave 25 scholarships of $500 each to high school students with high ACT scores. This year it increased to 60 scholarships. Other achievements of the Foundation include a $700,000 loan for the College of Medicine and win- ning the United States Steel Foundation’s “Alumni Giving Incentive Award” in 1979 for increased num- ber of alumni donors.

Having the successes and failures from the previous years to build on, Greg Morrell, Eddie Shell, and Jan Brichetto, the top three officers pledged to serve the concerns of the student body through a concentrated program of increasing stu- dent voice with the administration and improving student life in all phases of the college experience. As soon as they took office in May 1979, they began work on many areas of concern: preventive advisement and the semester change over, Univer- sity standing committees, parking and traffic, and dorm renovation, to name a few. There was no time for “fun in the sun” for these active representatives as Summer session was spent paving the way for a year of action. Representing the students at all of the Orientations for all incoming students, working on preventive ad- visement, publishing a General Information Newslet- ter (GIN), planning Homecoming, and establishing a channel of communication with the Kingsport Center kept everyone busy until students arrived in the fall. As the quarter got underway, so did Homecoming Vv 1 Michael R. Snapp plans. Everything was readied for the most successful and spectacular Homecoming to date. November was Organization Registration month as SGA tried to recognize the multitude of organizations on campus. The publishing of the Student Handbook and the Student Telephone directory finish out a busy and productive quarter. Winter quarter also found SGA active. The Organi- zational Fair, an annual event which allows organiza- tions to publicize themselves was held in February. With the price of gasoline skyrocketing, SGA initiated a Carpooling program for the commuter students of Kingsport, Bristol, Greeneville, Erwin, Elizabethon, and Johnson City. A survey of student needs and interests was undertaken to help SGA carry out their goals of representing students and their concerns. During Spring Quarter SGA pulled off the biggest student fund-raising project ever — the Muscular Dystrophy Association 20 hour Dance-a-thon was held and aroused wide-spread support and interest among the community and students. Computerized spring elections finally became a reality after many hours of research and a Spring Fling closed out a year of increased student involvement. Jan Brichetto ©) 1.

I’m relieved to be finished with the most difficult task that | have undertaken. | don’t think anything could be more confusing or draining. With a staff of mostly writers, photographers and typists, we found deadline pressure unbeara- ble. After having worked on last years staff, we thought this year would be uncomplicated. But somehow everything we had learned only scratched the surface of work to complete a 400 page book. The magazine format that was use d, the changes made from previous years, and the trend changes were designed to provide a comprehensive view of our University and to show the unity that is unique to us. The cumulation of my staffs ideas and hard work produced the best yearbook that we have ever had. Getting organized, training staff, learning from our mistakes and recounting our attributes provided pressure on the staff. The push to complete sequence courses before the semester switch caused our numbers to dwindle. But we still hung in there. One thing is for sure without the peace and ability that God gave me during this year, | would have given up and fallen under the pressure. He encouraged me through my staff and friends and gave me the strength to keep going. A special friend and hard worker that | could not have done without was Michael R. Snapp. His title of Head Photographer didn’t do him justice. He worked diligently when he was needed and he never lost his creative genius, even when he spent three all-nighters in the photo lab. Jack Hensley, who was given all the unfinished and unwanted stories to do at the last minute; Rose Caison, who not only filled me with encouragement but “fixed all that bad Anglish” we loved to use; Claudia Rodriguez, who was known for spending all night in the BUCCANEER office; Celeste Coxton who frantically typed rows and rows of names for the FACES section; Phyllis Boone, who typed countless pages in less time than | could proof read them; Kathy Fowler, who even though she was a newcomer, stuck with me typing the nights away during Spring break; and all the other people who helped the production of the yearbook, THANKS! My thanks go to Cathy Buchanan and the EAST TENNESSEAN for support through writing and photography; to Mr. Ray Pope, who provided color pictures for “The year in sports” story; to members of Student Government, who gave me their time and their typewriter when ours passed out from fatigue; and special thanks to the Counseling Center, who loaned us a typewriter during breaks. My deepest thanks go to Don Carter, who didn't throw us out of the Center when deadlines were late. Thanks also go to Bennie Smith who devoted many hours to business ad- visement and preparation for the Miss Buccaneer Pageant. Now that the book is finished, | can concentrate on graduating like any ordinary senior. But when | leave | will take a part of ETSU with me and | hope to have left a part of me here. My fondest memory will be on my book shelf. | am grateful to the University for allowing me to undertake this publication and | am thankful to God for keeping me sane and working His will through me.

Snapp In his third year as President, Dr. Arthur H. DeRosier is on the verge of seeing the semester system fully instituted. Although controversial when planning first began, the se- mester system has been accepted by students and faculty and should increase respect for the university in academic circles. No stranger to controversy Dr. DeRosier is not moving toward reorganization of the administrative sector of the uni- versity. The University School controversy finally seems to have been resolved. The Johnson City Board of Education and ETSU came to terms this year and though it has taken its toll on what DeRosier calls, “Town Gown” relationships both the university and the school should be stronger in the future. Always receptive to innovation and change DeRosier en- joys popularity and a good working relationship with stu- dents and their leaders. A weekly luncheon with the Student Government Association President and the editor of the East Tennessean provides meaningful communication between students and the President. Dr. DeRosier got behind the stu- dents and helped make the first concert in the Mini Dome possible and his committee system allows over 60 students to have direct input into the policy making avenues of his administration. Pushing the university into the Southern Conference was one of Dr. DeRosier’s projects and with a successful football and basketball season under his belt it looks as if it were a wise move. The track team brought home the bacon when they won the Southern Conference Track Meet. Naturally, our rifle team is dominating Southern Conference and women’s basketball is on the move. Physical renovations on campus, better accessability for the handicapped, a strong Alumni Association and Foundation, and a good attitude were all championed by Dr. DeRosier and all are becoming realities are ETSU moves into the — p, arthur H.

Dr. Bramlett, a native of Haywood County, N.C., received his B.S., and M.A. degrees in Chemistry from Wake Forest University. He later earned his Ph.D. from the University of Virginia. Before coming here, Dr. Bramlett served as assistant vice- president for research at the University of Alabama, a position he achieved after first serving as an assistant professor in chemistry, associate dean of graduate studies, and then Alabama’s first university research coordinator. Dr. Bramlett’s duties encompass many aspects of aca- demic life; however, the total reorganization implemented at the beginning of the year, reshaping the entire academic structure of the university kept him and his office very busy this year. Also of concern to the office was the upcoming switch from the quarter system to the semester system, a change that is to occur beginning in 1980. Dr. Robert Botkin continued as assistant vice-president for academic affairs. Dr. Botkin has been on the university staff since 1965, when he began teaching in the philosophy de- partment. He received his B.A. from LaGrange College, and eamed a B.D. and Ph.D. from Emory University. Dr. James Loyd continued in his capacity as dean of Admis- sions and Records. Although student enrollment was not quite as high the year before, new drop-add policies and other changes in policies kept the office busy. Dr. Edward Walters served as director of libraries for a third 162 The President’s Council COUNCIL = Photo lab year, seeing many changes come about, including the estab- lishment of an Archives of Appalachia. With the creation of the division of Extended Services, Dr. Benjamin Carmichael continued in his position as director.

After the consolidation of the old Student Personnel Ser- vices was into the present Student Affairs office, just about anything dealing with students comes under this office. Assistant Dean of Student Affairs P.M. Thomas holds the power of life or death over students since his office coordi- nates parking tickets fines. Dr. Willene J. Paxton is serving as Director of the Counseling Center which is occupying several offices on the third level of the student center and expanding its services almost daily. Sally Thomas, Student Development Coordinator, works with students to help them reach their potential. Her office is placing emphasis on the special problems of the handi- capped. Thanks to Uncle Sam, Perry C. Counts, director of Financial Aid, had a hectic year. Congress made changes in Federal student aid programs and many students were effected. A dramatic, but wise, move during the summer made Photo lab Taylor Hall a women’s dormitory and created additional prob- lems for Housing Director Harry Steele. The University Center is becoming increasingly popular as a facility for conventions and programs from both the com- munity and from the escalating demands of the university community.

Director Jerry Rust may look at a plan for handicap acces- sability one moment and the many nuances of State Board of Regents regulations the next. Dr. Rust has been with the uni- versity since 1972. He received his B.S. and M.S. degrees from George Peabody College for Teachers and his Ed.D. from George Peabody. He is a C.P.A. in Tennessee and Geor- gia and came here after eight years with the Tennessee Higher Education Commission and the Division of Higher Education in the Tennessee Department of Education. His job as director of internal research, systems, and plan- ning involved responsibility for development of an integrated information system, computer center activities, and physical facilities planning and capital budgeting on a university wide basis. Dr. Rust also handles matters pertaining to affirmative ac- tion and is instrumental in coordination with Federal and State agencies.

Each day, area media are given news re- leases in addition to a variety of information services. Fred Middleton, director, and his staff have dramatically increased the exposure we receive with special radio and television programs furnished by the university to area sta- tions. The Buccaneer Sports Network is growing with several radio stations carrying live play-by-play action called by Doug Newton. University Relations is constantly updating and creating brochures for the many departments within the university. Assistant Director, Dale Crail, coordinates that in addition to being responsible for the shape of the student directory. WETS-FM, a National Public Radio Affiliate, is under the university relations department and headed by Dick Ellis. Dur- ing the year the station has worked to raise funds to improve the signal the area receives. The commercial free station of- fers a broad spectrum of programming including classical, jazz, avant-garde music and many news and educational shows. University Relations works closely with the Foundation and the Office of Alumni Affairs to prepare news releases and other services. The office of University Relations is well respected among it's peers and has won national and regional honors for its work. Photo lab Fred W. Migigieten: so. sc) Ce.

He also serves to bring to- gether several loose ends financially for smoother operation of the school, in addition to handling of all personnel records of the university, and hiring and sponsoring supervisory checks of its own staff. Offices which come under Kite’s jurisdiction as director include purchasing, directed by Bruce Ballard; Personnel, under the direction of Patsy Leach; the bursar’s office, coordi- nated by Harold Johnson; and auxillary enterprises, directed by Scotty Snyder. jim Seehorn is director of the physical plant John Knox director of Memorial Center. in the office of Campus Safety and Security, Ken T.

Miller. Working toward the complex task of developing a livable budget of the university each year, Miller must also direct appropriations and adjust for emergencies and budget imba- lances. His annual task of developing a budget, and making appropriational requests to the State Board of Regents, Ten- nessee Higher Education Commission, and the state legisla- ture, often reminds him of a seasonal Army game. “It seems all we do is hurry up and wait,” he jokes. Miller, who has a B.S. degree from Tennessee Tech, and a M.B.A. degree from ETSU, sees greater responsibility for his office in future years as medical school monies began to increase university budget appropriations. ....

This man for Dr. DeRosier was Dan Russo, executive assis- tant to the president. Russo, who earned his B.S. degree in 1961 from Rutgers University, came here in 1967 as an eco- nomics professor. He worked as assistant director of re- search and information systems for some years before as- suming his post in the DeRosier administration two years ago. Seeing his job as “to review recommendations that come to the president’s office for the solutions of university or in- stitutional problems.” Russo has acted as the go-between for many presidential projects, finalizing details and coordinating people and supplies for smooth carrying-out of activities. He acts as a sounding board for students who have prob- lems involving various aspects of campus life, usually taking them beyond his office to DeRosier’s for his consideration or action. Photo ab Photo lab The Office of Development saw it third year of operation, remaining under the direction of William H. McCarthy. McCarthy, an Illinois native and long-time employee of foun- dation and developmental programs, joined ETSU as the re- sult of a selection committee’s recommendations and Dr. DeRosier’s personal decision. Athletics is one of the areas which benefits from the efforts of the Foundation. McCarthy was named the successor to retiring Athletic Director Madison Brooks. His devotion to the Bucs was important in his selection to fill the post. Denne Cade, director of the ETSU Foundation, worked through the private non-profit, tax-exempt corporation to provide a margin of excellence and opportunity for the uni- versity. The Foundation, established in 1970, received money through solicitation, with Cade working to receive and ad- minister gifts and bequests for the benefit of the university. Also included as a branch of the office of development is the ETSU Pirate Club, a group which operates under the sponsorship of the Foundation for athletic fund-raising pur- poses. Also centered under the jurisdiction of the development office is the ETSU Alumni Office, with James Donovan assum- ing the position of director this year. With Field Secretary Ted Hughes, Donovan worked to improve alumni participation and interest in the university through tours, special campus activities, trips, the publishing of the “Alumni Quarterly,” and fund-raising.

He is retiring after many years of service to the university. Brooks, a native of Aimwell, La., served the university first as head basketball coach for 25 years and later in his present positions. He was one of the nations all-time winningest coaches and was a winner as director of athletics as well. He earned his M.A. from Louisiana Sta te University after receiving his B.S. from Louisiana Tech in 1936. This year Brooks was inducted into the Tennessee Athletic Hall of Fame. Janice C. Shelton continued her duties as assistant athletic director, helping Brooks coordinate and develop the intercol- legiate athletic programs. Shelton received her B.S. degree from Georgetown Col- lege in 1966 and her M.A. degree from the University of Kentucky in 1968. She came to ETSU in 1968 to serve asa physical education instructor, director of women’s intramu- rals and basketball coach. In 1974 she assumed the position of coordinating women’s athletics.

Brooks brought skill, hardwork and success to us and he will be missed. Recently he was inducted into the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame and Foundation endowed a scholarship fund in his name. This three-sport standout at Louisiana Tech, a native of Aimwell, La., compiled a 370-267 record in 25 seasons as basketball coach. When he ended his coaching career in 1973, Brooks ranked fifth among all-time winning coaches. His teams won seven championships in the Volunteer State and Ohio Valley conferences; competed in the National As- sociation of Intercollegiate Athletics and the National Col- legiate Athletic Association tournaments; was named Coach of the Year in the OVC in 1968; and is a member of the Citizens Savings Athletic Foundation Hall of Fame. In 36 years of coaching at the high school and college ievels, Brooks’ teams won 559 games. He was honored by the National Association of Basketball Coaches with honor awards for 512 career wings and for 33 years of coaching in 1969, His retirement was a Surprise to many of the students. We hate to see him go. It is difficult to think of Buccaneer ath- ‘etics without Madison Brooks. College of Medicine Although administrative changes have shaken the newly created College of Medicine the number of students allowed to enter this year has been increased and the college is on solid ground. New equipment, staff and students are making the College of Medicine a strong addition to the university. Acting as interium Dean for Academic Affairs is Dr. Lamar Soutter. Acting as Interim Dean for Financial Affairs is Mr. Gene Artrip. The College of Medicine enjoys the support of local legis- lators on both the state and national level. Strong community support, which is essential for all parts of the university, is evident as well. Support is also being received from national sources of research funding because of the high quality of the facility. The first class will graduate in 1982. Many of the students in the college are from the local area and as men and women graduate from the college they will better the health care for this area as well as represent ETSU as alumni across the nation.

Here at ETSU, stu- dents are selected by a student-faculty committee after meeting basic qualifications and after a personal interview. The purpose of the yearly publication is to “offer recognition and reward to young people who have distinguished themselves in their university or col- lege.” Students named to Who’s Who have access to job placement opportunities offered through a ser- surveys conducted by Who’s Who. Basic requirements for consideration by the com- mittee for Who’s Who include a cummulative grade point average of above 2.5 and significant partici- pation and contribution to the university through at least two areas of service. These areas include ath- letics, art, student organizations, drama, music, stu- dent government, and student publications. This year, forty-seven students met these require- ments and were named in the 1979-80 edition of Who's Who. These students have been recognized for their scholastic achievements and active partici- pation in university life on the pages before their vice provided by the organization.

The day saw Hutsell gain recognition as the first Buc- caneer to receive the coveted Southern Conference Offen- sive Player of the Week Award, throw 23 of 32 passes, pass for four touchdowns and gain national recognition as he was named Associated Press International Offensive Player of the Week. Giving the senior quarterback aide in the win were several outstanding receivers. Arnold Thomas found himself holding two Hutsell-passes, catching a 49-yard pass in the first quar- ter and a 39-yard pass in the third. Joining Arnold in the catching honors were Johnny McFall, who snagged a 21- yard throw. It was a big day for Hutsell. It was a big day for us. In the stands sat 12,331 fans who roared with excitement as we trudged on to victory, holding the opponent scoreless. Among these fans was another winning Buccaneer team, the 1969 Gratland Rice Bowl champs and former Buc coach John Bell. “It was a repeat of history,” said Bell in reference to the game. “I remember a cold, rainy, Johnson City day during 1972 when we won over UTC and the score was 35-0 then.” 234 Homecoming Game While Bell and former footballers might harbor fond memories of wins over UTC, those wins have been few dur- ing the years as the Bucs have won only 5 of 15 contests between the two teams since 1961. The Mocs have taken nine of those victories, while we managed to pull off one tie in the series. The 1979 win was a particularly important one for us. It was a day of firsts. Besided the honors attributed to Hutsell, the win marked the first Homecoming victory in nine years and the first win during Homecoming while a member of the Southern Conference. It was also a bright spot that led to the eventual winning season during 1979 — the first for us in 10 years. Coach Jack Carlisle said of the win, “We can play with the UTC’'s, the Furman’s and the VMI’s. We’re to the point where we can compete in the Southern Conference.” And com- pete they did, as the offense aided Hutsell in 284 yards passing and a tough defense led by Charles Stein, Skip Daniels and Doug Whetsel held UTC scoreless. Homecoming 79’ was a day that left many fans wondering if football here had indeed turned around. It was a day that left us a winner. Cindi Brooks (5) A 2 Michael R. Snapp 1. Eric Rotter and Wayne Franklin stop the punt return of UTC. 2. With an at- titude of prayer, the Bucs showed good Sportsmanship throughout the season. 3. A capacity crowd of 12,331 fans watched the game that left us a winner. Homecoming Game 235 We know how to compete, we know how to win Spectacular, exciting, crowd-pleasing. When you post the only winning season in nine years, (the last was in 1969), gain national recognition and defeat eventual Southern Conference champ UT-Chattanooga 35-0, one has to believe that Buccaneer football has finally come of age. When Coach Jack Carlisle began his second year as head mentor, many people were sceptical as to whether our team could compete in the Southern Conference. However, Carlisle and staff proved that not only could the Buccaneers compete in the Southern Conference, but they could win. While posting only a 2-3 overall record in con- ference action, the Bucs rolled over UT-Chattanooga and Furman under the leadership of senior quarterback Mark Hutsell and lost close games to VMI, Appalachian State, and Western Carolina. The 1979 season was also a year of firsts for the Buc- caneers — most of which came in individual honors to Hut- sell. After his spectacular performance against UT- Chattanooga, Hutsell was chosen as the Southern Confer- ence Offensive Player of the Week and Associated Press Player of the Week. As if these two honors were not enough, the personable quarterback received an invitation to participate in the 42nd Annual Blue-Gray All-American Bowl on Christmas Day — the only Buc ever invited to a Vv 1 Tanya Green 236 Football Vv 2 Michael R. Snapp post-season bowl. The 1979 season marked the sixth winningest season in Buccaneer football and was a season that saw several records fall and many others come close. Team records that fell in 197 9 included the Buccaneer All-Time record for Most Points Scored and Most Total Yards Gained. In con- tests against Middle Tennessee, the Buccaneers scored 52 points to beat the 1922 record of 49 against Washington College. The Bucs amassed 554 total yards against James Madison to fell the 1977 record of 506 yards against rival Appalachian State. Two team season records fell during 1979 as the Bucs scored 278 points to break the previous point record of 244 set in 1973 and pushed for 4,3 18 yards in total offense to beat the 4,143 yards set in 1978. Some key individuals on the Buccaneer squad also set new records in 1979 and recognition of these records goes to Phil Hunt, Mark Hutsell, Ricky Reeves, and Johnny McFall. Hunt, a celebrated place-kicker known for kicking the pigskin bare-footed, set two all-time records and tied one other. Hunt set a new record for Most Points After by scor- ing seven against Middle Tennessee and kicked the Longest Field Goal when he booted a 47-yarder against Western Carolina. Hunt tied the Most Field Goals by kicking three against Western Carolina. 1. Steve Meyer is being congratulated after a fine performance at Furman. 2. Wide-receiver, Myron Chestnut will leave a gap in the Buc offense. 3. Fan-support, national recognition, and strong defensive play helped to make it a year for winning. 4. Mark Hutsell’s absence will be felt as this year he broke three records; 17 touchdowns, 186 completed passes, and 2,276 yards passing. Vv 4 Michael R. Snapp Football 237 Four season records fell by the way-side as Hunt kicked season records for Most Points Scored After, Most Points Scored by Kicking, (60), Most Field Goals, and Most Con- secutive Points After. The only other all-time record to fall was Most Yards Gained Rushing, set by Ricky Reeves at 226 yards to beat the previous record of 220 set by George Fugate in 1975. Reeves also came up with the best rushing average in a season when he managed a 9.4 yard per game average to better Piggy Nolan’s 7.0 in 1957. Runningback Johnny McFall got into the record-breaking picture by scoring the Most Touchdowns in a season. McFall scored 14 TD’s to better the previous record by two. Keeping in line with his season performance, Hutsell managed to break three season records. Besting his own 1978 recording of 14 touchdowns passes, the senior quar- terback threw for 17 touchdowns in 1979 and bested the 1973 Alan Chadwick record of 185 Passes Completed by throwing a total of 186 completed passes. Hutsell again bettered his own record by marking 2,276 yards passing over the previous 2,160 yards in 1978. Carlisle and staff had a lot to be proud of during 1979. It was a year of winning — something the Buccaneers hadn't done in a long while. It was a year of good things for the Bucs: fan-support, national recognition, and strong de- fensive play. The question now is: What next? Carlisle and the Bucs will lose a total of 15 players to graduation and all have been key reasons for the 1979 suc- cess. Names like Al Anderson, Ron Boyd, Myron Chestnut, Skip Daniels, Wayne Franklin, Mark Hutsell, James Mackey, Paul McKenney, Jay Megna, Charles Pittman, Levi Robinson, Charles Stein, Barry Tolley, and Doug Whetsel will long be remembered in Buccaneerland as the team that won and no doubt Carlisle and staff will be hard-put to replace these standout performers.

Sigma Chi in the Fraternity category and the Reefer Rollers of the independent league emerged once again to dominate the field. But it was clearly an upset in the bid for the overall men’s Championship as the Sigma Chi’s put it to Tau Kappa Epsilon to claim the University title. The dorm division title was captured by the Big Time Express. In the women’s competition, Lucille Clement once again showed their skill in the dorm division as a new tough contender, the Baby Bucs dominated the in- dependent division. After a hard fought contest be- tween the two, L. Clement still claimed the title of Women champs. Jan Brichetto © A Jan Brichetto- Intramural Football 241 Photo lab A solid season record, The third straight winning season, a first appearance in the Southern Conference and one of the most exciting players to wear the Blue and Gold featured the Buccaneers basketball campaign. Coach Jim Hallihan’s Buccaneers recorded a 15-13 record, gained the semi-finals of the Southern Conference before losing to Furman and introduced freshman Troy Mikell of Columbia, S.C., as one of the most refreshing performers to come along in at least a decade. Then there was the veteran Scott Place, a senior from Roanoke, Va., who indelibly wrote his name into the record books. Place established a record for playing in most Buc- caneer games, as he lined up in the starting rotation 108 times. He started every game since his freshman days. Place also became the fourth leading scorer in Buccaneers history as he tallied 1,264 points in his four-year career. That puts him just behind some all-time Buccaneer greats such as Tom Chilton (1,801), Skeeter Swift (1,367) and Mike Kretzer (1,289). Mikell, a 6-1, 180-pounder who can leap with just about anyone in the nation, took only a few games to show what people back in Columbia already knew — that he was going to put excitement back into the Buccaneer basketball pro- gram. Mikell was named the freshman Player of the Year in the Southern Conference, he was also named to the All- Tournament team in the league tourney in Roanoke, Va. For 242 Basketball Photo lab Photo lab Basketball 243 semi-finals in the Southern, the season, the talented freshman averaged 16.5 points per game. And, or course, Mikell and Place, were not the only stars of the Big Blue cagers. Newcomer Clint Smith, a transfer from Gulf Coast Junior College in Florida, was an instant hit with his rebounding ability. He played a power forward position and played it well despite injuries. He was the club’s leading re- bounder with an average of 7.6 grabs per game. He had a scoring average of 10.1 points per game. Winfred Reid, George Underwood, Jim Smith, Andrea Mot- ley, Rusty Poole, Joe Perry, Marc Quesenberry, Charles Thax- ton, Terry Poindexter, Craig Lester, Tim Counts, Osmond Robinson, Hobie McCreary and Richard Bragg were the other members of the team, all of whom contributed to a third 244 Basketball consecutive winning campaign. Bragg, who played well last year, was injuried just before the season opened. He was red-shirted so that he can retum. The most improved player was George Underwood, the talented junior from Knoxville. He carne on strong down the home stretch. Underwood worked his way into a starting position midway of the season and was invaluable down the stretch. Quesenbery, a freshman from Galax, Va., was strong as a point guard and showed a lot of promise. Poole, a transfer from Columbia State, started the first part of the season at point guard. He led the club in assists with 74. The season got under way on a positive note as the Buc- Photo lab Photo lab : Maat Basketball 245 246 Basketball caneers whipped the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee, 78-60, in the opening round of the Wisconsin Invitational Tournament at Madison. Even though the Bucs lost to the Wisconsin Badgers in the championship game, their perfor- mance was impressive. The Buccaneers also gave a good accounting of them- selves in 10 and 11 point losses to Virginia Tech and South Carolina respectively. They scored 105 points against the UNC-Asheville Bulldogs. Other high points of the season came in a 54-52, victory over the Citadel at Charleston as Mikell dunked the winning basket with 10 seconds remaining in the game and Place ae grabbed the final rebound with two seconds left. It was only Ww nd graduating players closed out the year the third loss for the Citadel in the “Animal House” in 28 games. The Buccaneers hosted the UT-Chattanooga Mocs in the first round of the Southern Conference tournament and took a 71-67 victory which sent the Bucs into their first ever semi- final round in Roanoke. Reid had highest score for a single game with 28 points in the first game against UT-Chattanooga. Mikell bagged 12 field goals agains VMI. Underwood had a season high of 15 rebounds against Samford. Closing out their Buccaneer career were Place, Joe Perry, who was hurt most of the latter part of the season, Poindex- ter and Counts. John Cathey ( Photo lab Basketball 247 Building a team of promise “A recruiting year, a building year, and then the third year should be the best.” — Those were the words of Coach Susan Yow, a former North Carolina State standout and two-time Kodak All American, when she described her plans for ETSU’s Lady Buccaneers in the fall of 1978. It appears that the third year — the 1980 season — will have to be the “Year of the Lady Bucs.” While the 1978 season tured out to be a Cinderella story for the Lady Bucs with a third place finish in TCWSF playoffs. 1979 ended witha disappointing loss to UT-Chattanooga in the first round of State playoffs. The season started slowly as second-year coach Yow and her charges found themselves down 2-7 at one point before battling back to even their record, 13-13, before the last game of the regular season. Though all five starters from the 1978 squad returned for the 1979 season, the women fielded a team composed of one senior, two juniors, a sophomore, and a freshman. Returning at center was second-year starter Jackie Phillips. Juniors Annette Culberson and Sharon Allen filled the guard positions, while lone senior Jennifer Campbell occupied a forward slot. Junior Ann Baugher, a starting forward in 1978, yielded that position to freshman Marsha Cowart during the 1979 campaign. The Lady Bucs opened the season with a home-game loss to Virginia Tech. From there, they traveled to North Carolina to take on Pfeiffer and Elon, where Yow and assistant coach Jackie Meyers had played as freshmen and sophomores. The Lady Bucs won a close victory over Pfeiffer, but fell victim to Elon by a shallow margin. Returning home, Yow and the charges pushed past rival Appalachian for an impressive win that left them with a 2-2 record. From that point on, 1979 became a season of ups and downs for the Lady Bucs as they posted wins over impressive opponents like Georgetown and Memphis State, but lost to awesome South Carolina and Tennessee. The Ladys had good depth at some positions with fresh- men Punkie Mills, Margaret Stroupe, and Sherrie Tynes lend- ing a hand at forward and Terry Vanover and Ann Baugher filling in where needed. Weaknesses in the 1979 lineup showed up in the positions of center and pointguard as Jackie Phillips and Annette Cul- berson were often alone in manning those positions. Though 1979 proved to be a big disappointment as the women fell short of a winning season at 13-15, 1980 should be better. With Jennifer Campbell being the only graduating senior, and impressive newcomers like Punkie Mills ready to step in, Yow and the team could indeed make 1980 “The Year of the Lady Bucs.” Cyndy Brooks J) 248 Women’s basketball Photo lab Photo lab Women’s basketball 249 Putting right along It wasn’t exactly Amold Palmer and Jack Nicholas or even an offical PGA Tournament, but it was a very competitive Putt-Putt Tournament just the same. Sigma Nu proved once again that they were Masters of the Green as they held on to the overall title for the second straight year. The Big Orange won the inde- pendent title as Ellington took the dorm division and WETS, the club league. In women’s competition, West Hall took the honors as the top team.

By noon the promise of a perfect spring day was shattered with the coming of rain clouds. It rained sporadically the remainder of the day. That day was May 13, 1979, the date set for our baseball match with Clemson. Four and two-thirds innings were played in intermittent rain. With only one out left, Davey Cardwell hit a home run, the last Buc batter of the season. But the game was called with Clemson leading 3-1, typifying the entire season. That day, like the season, had dawned bright and beautiful. Rain fell part way through the day — just as the season had some low points. The game was unfinished — just as the Buc season seemed. Things just did not go as they should, though the game ended on a good note with Cardwell’s home run. This was Coach Charley Lodes’ second year. In his first, he had taken us to the NCAA playoffs. Some new faces were on the team, with every player in a new position except the pitchers. It was a season of new beginnings. Lodes would be leading his team into Southern Conference play for the first time. Texas was chosen as the annual spring trip. The Bucs re- turned with a 7-7 record. “We could have come back 11-3 with a few breaks. We actually could have been better then if we had hit a little better in the clutch,” Lodes said. The Bucs played their first game against Mars Hill, winning 15-0. Mike Shifflett was the leader at the plate with a home run and four runs batted in. The game was Coach Lodes 200th coaching career victory. North Carolina was our next opponent. The Tarheels had defeated us three times last year, including a defeat in the NCAA playoffs. The Chapel Hill team again proved too tough, sweeping a doubleheader with scores of 7-3 and 5-0. After defeating the Davidson Wildcats in a double-header, the Bucs traveled to Knoxville to confront the Volunteers of Tennessee. We gained revenge with pitcher Curt Kowalski and center fielder Nelson Fitzpatrick leading the way to de- feat the Vols. Kowalski struck out eight batters as he went the full distance for the win. Fitzpatrick, a defensive wizard, had a home run and a triple for two RBI's. Chattonooga was the scene of our next game and victory. Atlee Hammaker picked up his fourth win of the season against the UT-Chattanooga Moccasins. Hammaker's over- powering fastball notched the second no-hitter of his career. After such an outstanding win in the first game, the Bucs dropped the second game of the doubleheader, 6-3. This loss would come back to haunt us. A little rain the loss in the second game had just fallen over our sunshine Hammaker's no-hitter. David Lipscomb was our next scheduled opponent. The Bisons, a perennial power in Division II, handed a 2-1 loss to Lodes’ team. After defeating local rival Milligan, 13-4, the Bucs dropped a game to Virginia Tech, 3-1. Gobbler pitcher Dave Grier allowed the Bucs only three hits, striking out 12. Seven of the next eight games were important conference 252 Baseball clashes. The Bucs swept doubleheaders from Marshall and VMI. They also defeated Western Carolina in a single game, but lost to Furman and Appalachian State. The loss to ASU was a crucial one. If the Bucs had won, they would have been tied for first in the conference with the Citadel. Instead we fell one game behind our South Carolina rival. Appalachian’s victory snapped a five game winning streak, surprising Coach Lodes. “We just couldn't close the door. We pitched our one and two pitchers and they knocked the heck out of the ball. If anyone had told me that our two top pitch- ers would give up 1 1 runs, | would have had trouble believing it. We scored nine runs. That should be enough to win any game.” The Bucs traveled to Columbia to face the South Carolina Gamecocks, a traditionally powerful team. USC won the game, 3-2. The next day we faced the Citadel Bulldogs in a showdown match for the Southern Conference lead. We went into the game with a conference record of 9-3. Citadel's record was 10-3. The loss at Chattanooga now loomed larger. We would have to win to take the conference lead. Although we had lost to other conference opponents besides the Mocs, that game was more costly because UT-C was not that good. If we had been tied for the lead rather than a game behind, some of the pressure might have been lifted. Coach Lodes relied on his top two pitchers, Andrews and Hammaker. The duo did a fine job, giving up one earned run in two games, but that was not enough. The Citadel won both games, 3-1 and 1-0, clinching the Southern Conference championship for the Bulldogs and earning them a berth in the NCAA playoffs. The two losses virtually ended our playoff hopes, as the Bucs would face nationally ranked teams in Southern Illinois and Clemson. However, if they could win against these two teams, they would have a chance for an at-large bid. Southern Illinois traveled to Johnson City the first weekend in May. The Salukis were ranked seventh in the nation with a 30-7 record. Bob Schroeck was their leading pitcher. The southpaw came into the series with a 9-O record and an ERA of 0.50. He had given up three earned runs in 53 innings of pitching. Schroeck and Hammaker faced each other in the first game of what appeared to be the ultimate pitcher's duel. Someone forgot to tell the hitters though, as the game ended 9-4, in favor of the Salukis. Mike Silber led the Bucs at the plate with two home runs. The Salukas’ power was evident as they knocked four balls out of Cardinal Park. Schroeck took the win, but ETSU reached him for four earned runs. That was one more earned run that he had given up in the previous nine games. Ham- maker took the loss and saw his record fall to 6-3. The game attracted special attention, with every major league sending a scout. In Sunday’s doubleheader, the Salukis took both games, 9-4 and 4-2. Southern Illinois scored two unearned runs in the second inning of the first game; center fielder Tom House proved to be the difference. He opened the seventh with a single and promptly stole second base. Ken Solow brought the runner home with a single to left field. Although his team had lost three consecutive games, Vv 3 Photo lab : © 1. Pitcher Jeff Andrews ended his season with a 5-5 record and a 2.97 ERA. 2. Atlee Hammaker was drafted by the Kansas City Royals. 3. This stolen base against Virginia Tech during a fall scrim- mage is an example of speed and agility that is a tradition for us. Baseball 253 1. “This year we played the toughest schedule we've ever had,” said Coach Lodes. With this in mind, the Bucs ended their season with the same number of wins as they had last year. 2. With 29 victories, the Bucs turned in a very fine team per- formance. 254 Baseball but the sun shined on Vv 1 Photo lab Coach Lodes was far from being disappointed. “This was just a super series,” he said. “You enjoy playing with people like that. When you get into a great series with a great team like Southern Illinois and come out of it finding that you can play with them, you can’t help but feel good about things.” After defeating the Emory and Henry Wasps in two games, the Bucs welcomed the Clemson Tigers to town. The Tigers were ranked fifth in the nation, boasting a 37-12 record. The first game of the series was played in Kingsport. In that first game, the Bucs suffered one of their most dis- appointing losses of the season, committing two errors in the ninth which loaded the bases for the Tigers. Tony Masone then hit a grand slam to put his team up 8-6. That’s how it ended. Mike Priesmeyer took the loss. Clemson faced the Bucs the following day at Buccaneer Field. The Tigers seemed to pick up where they left off, jump- ing to a 5-0 lead after one-half inning. On the strength of Gary Robinette’s home run and Silber’s double, the Bucs tied the score at six all after three innings of play. The Bucs put the game away in the seventh inning. Clemson led 8-7. The Bucs sent nine batters to the plate to take a 13-8 lead. Ken “Chief’ Swinson was responsible for three runs, with a home run directly over the right field fence. The victory was the 29th of the season, trying a school record. The game scheduled for the next day was never completed because of rain. ETSU turned in a very fine team performance for the year. Several individuals also compiled some impressive Statistics. Third-baseman Gary Robinette was the Bucs’ leading hitter with a.351 average. This made him the ninth best hitter in the Southern Conference. Robinette was named to the All- Tournament team in the Citrus tournament played on the Texas tour. He was the only Buc player named to the coaches’ All-Conference team. v 2 Photo lab Cardwell and Swinson followed Robinette in hitting with .314 averages. Cardwell lead the team in triples, total bases and RBI’s. He also lead the conference in triples with 10. Swinson, the catcher, led the team in home runs with eight. This ranked him second in the conference. Shifflett and Jeff Evans rounded out the .300 or better hit- ters with .313 and .305 averaged respectively. Shifflett hit seven home runs this season and drove in 31 runs. In addi- tion, second baseman Evans led the conference in stolen bases with 22. Mike Priesmeyer led the pitchers with an 8-4 record anda 2.65 ERA. Jeff Andrews ended the season with a 5-5 record and a 2.97 ERA. Curt Kowalski was also 5-5 and had an ERA of 4.64. Atlee Hammaker ended his brilliant Buccaneer career with a 6-3 record and an ERA of 3.72, finishing with two no-hitters to his credit. Hammaker was drafted by the Kansas City Roy- als and is currently in their organization. In just two short years, Coach Lodes has brought big-time college baseball here. In 1977 the Bucs had a 7-12 record. The 1979 season produced 29 wins in a much tougher schedule which called for us to face Clemson, South Carolina and Southern Illinois, all traditional baseball powers. Coach Lodes was pleased with his team’s season. “It’s been a good year. We've accomplished some things we wanted to. Our biggest disappointment was not winning the Southern Conference. We had the same number of victories this year as last year, but there is no comparison in the sched- ules. This year we played the toughest schedule we've ever had.” “Lady Luck” and good coaching must all come together if 1980 is to be a success. Hopefully there will be more sun- shine and less rain.

After winning the 1978 Tennessee College Women’s Sports Federation tournament, they had looked forward to a great season. However, with the loss of two key players, team cap- tain Nancy Beals and setter Janice Walker, the team lacked experience. | Setting duties this season went to Knoxville freshman Janet Storm. While Storm may have lacked the poise and experience of an older player, she brought with her some impressive cre- dentials including membership on the regional Junior Olympic championship team. “Janet did a fine job this season,” remarked fifth-year coach Emily Walker. “She just wasn’t experienced enough to come in and give the team the kind of leadership it needed. But you can’t expect that of any freshman player.” Walker added, “We were lucky to have Janet because she was able to make the transition from high school to college vol leyball with relative ease and | am looking forward to rebuild- ing next season and her being a part of the squad.” Joining Storm on the 1979 squad were some seasoned vet- erans and talented newcomers who should help our team to grow in strength during the coming season. Returning for Walker were seniors Gayle Sykes, Linda Millman, Kay Flanagan; sophomores Sandy Hester and Nancy Carter. The newcomers included Chattanooga setter Michele V2 Photo lab 1. “Got it!” says Linda Millman as her spike successfully lands over the opponent's block. 2.

During tournament play the Lady Bucs traveled to Newark, Delaware, Eastern Kentucky, Marshall University, and Memphis. The 1978 defending state champs traveled to Memphis with an 18-14 record and left the big city with a season final of 21-16, just two victories short of another state title. In the first meeting of the round robin tournament, Walker and her chargers rolled over Middle Tennessee, Tennessee Tech, and UT-Chattanooga before losing in round two to UT- Knoxville and Memphis State. “I wish we could have added another title to our collection,” said Walker. (The Lady Bucs have held three state titles over the last five years.) “We played much better at the toumament, but we still didn’t play the caliber of volleyball we needed to play.” With the end of 1979, also comes the loss of three more players. Sykes, Millman and Flanagan will be missed next sea- son and it will certianly be a tough job replacing these volleyball standouts. “Right now we're working on recruiting,” said Walker, “but it won't be any easy job to replace the three players were losing. I've enjoyed working with all three and appreciate the efforts they've given to me and the team. “We'll miss them in ’80.” Cindi Brooks (8) Volleyball 261 Photo lab “Ball” games The team with “No Names” came out a winner as they emerged triumphant in the men’s division after battling such teams as the Sixers, the Golf Team, Big Time Express, the Pretzels, Pre-Proffessionals, and Sigma Chi to claim the 1980 Basketball Champi- onship.

The Buc netters produced the confer- ence champion in Pierre Arnold. Tienie Prinsloo took the num- ber two singles position in the conference. They were both selected for the All Southern Conference Tennis Team. The netters took a fifteen match winning streak and duel match wins over conference rivals Appalachian State (9-0), VMI (9-0), Western Carolina (9-0), and eventual champions UTC (6-3), into the Southern Conference tournament. Along with a seasonal 25-5 record, Coach Buddy Hartsell’s tennis team en- tered conference play with a “smash”. With seven players returning to the team, the netters were backed with experience. The number one singles player for the fourth consecutive year was Pierre Arnold from Buenos Aires, Argentina. The left-handed Arnold saw only quality competition on his way to winning the Southern over Davidson's Harry Grif- fith, 6-2, 6-1. Arnold sported a 19-10 record in singles and produced a formidable doubles combination with compatriot senior Mark Boling. Arnold and Boling finished their college tennis careers with a fine season performance record of 26-3. The number two singles player for the second year was sophomore Tienie Prinsloo from Pretoria, South Africa. Prinsloo’s background includes Junior Championships in the 14, 16, and 18 year old divisions in South Africa. He has also won A 2 Michael R. Snapp A 1 Michael R. Snapp 1.

In a seemingly effort- less manner Prinsloo produced a 24-4 season record and cap- tured the number two singles championship in the Southern over Enoch Booth of the Citadel, 7-6, 6-2. Teaming with fellow sophomore Ron Williams, a native of Australia, the two became the number one doubles team. Prinsloo and Williams faired well with a season record of 26-3 and also highlighted their perfor- mance with excellent tennis at the Princeton Invitational and the Southern Intercollegiate Championships in Athens, Geor- gia. Williams, playing number three singles for his second year, compiled a seasonal 22-6 record. Mark Boling, a self-made player from Bowling Green, Ken- tucky, was the netters’ number four singles player. Boling, a central figure in the Eastern Intercollegiate Championship win last spring, put his heart into his senior year of tennis and finished with a determined singles record of 23-6. Joining the netters is a highly promising freshman from Au- stralia, Roger Grant. Down under, Grant ranked as one of the finest singles and doubles players in the National Juniors, and in his debut here he wore away his opponents to record a 12-1 season. Partnering with netter number 5, Mike Jones, they slammed their way to a 13-1 doubles record. Jones, a senior from Lima, Ohio, experienced his best form and produced a singles record of 22-8. Tennis 265 1. Tienie Prinsloo captured the number two singles championship in the South- ern Conference. 2. Ron Williams teamed with Prinsloo to become the number one doubles team in the Southern Conference. 3. Pierre Arnold ended his Buc career by taking the number one position in the Southern Conference. Smashing netters Other players who saw action this year were Mark Foxworth and Stan Ogg. Foxworth, affectionately known as the “Hulk’, is a strong player and creates an over-whelming atmosphere on the court. He compiled an 8-4 record in singles and a 7-4 record in doubles. Another new addition is Stan Ogg, from Merriet Island, Florida. Stan adds depth to the team, and will gain the experience needed to play well as there are three seniors leaving the squad. Being the runner-up in the Southern produced an anti-climax for the netters, but winning the Eastern Intercollegiate for the second year running capped off a highly successful season. This win became satisfaction for the team and especially for the three seniors. With Arnold as the foundation of the three players, Coach Buddy Hartsell built a successful and recognized tennis team on the entire coast. These netters, Arnold, Boling, and Jones, led the Buc tennis team to an incredible record of 70-13. With the pride instilled by these netters and Coach Hartsell, Buc tennis has a spectacular future here and in the Southern Conference. Carl Forester and Ron Williams ©) VW 2 Michael R.

When the Wom- en’s tennis team reported for practice, new coach Billie Abney greeted them. Abney was a famed member of UT-C’s national championship team. Abney led the team to victories over Emory and Henny, 8-1, and Memphis State, 5-4, while amassing a 12-9 overall record. The team was full of potential which bloomed into continuous improvement throughout the season. The Lady’s number one squad player was freshman Bren- nan Crump, a native of Bristol. Crump is one of the state’s top young players and is a “smart player with a lot of poise,” according to Coach Abney. Crump sparked a 13-6 record in her first year on the squad. The number two seed player was senior Charo Lopez from Lima, Peru. Lopez, characterized as a “smart and gutsy player’ by Abney, sported a 14-5 record for her last year with the squad. Another returning player was number three singles Donna Vv 4 Photo lab Arnold, who set a record of 7-14 this year. Also returning were number four seed Connie Keasling, fifth seed Lea Bailey and sixth seed Carolyn Wivell. Keasling scored a 7-14 record for the season while Bailey finished with a determined 14-7 and Wivell had an impres- sive 15 wins and 6 losses. Brennan Crump and Charo Lopez comprized the number one doubles team with a 10-8 record for the year. The num- ber two doubles team was Lea Bailey and Donna Armold, 10-11, followed by the third doubles combination of Jennifer Watkins and Carolyn Wivell, 9-1 2. Women’s tennis is on the move, aspiring to meet Coach Abney’s expectations by fulfilling their own potential. Abney expects the team to improve more next season. She and the Lady Bucs are working hard to see it happen because Abney says, “I want a team that could win a national championship.” Carl Forester and Ron Williams‘ Women’s tennis 269 Never to busy to win In keeping with tradition, we captured the championship Most children between the ages of eight and ten are too busy keeping up with Spiderman or the latest toys to concern themselves with other aspects of life, but according to Coach Hal Morrison, most of his golfers began playing between those ages. It seems to have paid off because the Bucs have been a dominant force in the Ohio Valley Conference for years. 1979 marked the first year of membership in the Southem Conference. In keeping with their winning tradition, they cap- tured the conference championship. The win broke a six-year hold on the team title by either Appalachian State or Furman. Four of the five top finishers were Buccaneers. Morrison received coach of the year for the sixth time in the past eleven years. In his 24 years as head coach he has suffered only one losing season. Golfers that have gone pro are tes- timoies to his success. A few prime examples are J.C. Snead, Bobby Watkins, David Eger, and Larry Hinson. Competing exclusively in a tournament format, the team began their season March 9th in Orangeburg, South Carolina. They had a slow start, finishing twelfth in the Palmetto Intercol- legiate, eleventh in the Pinehurst Intercollegiate, and nine- teenth in the Furman Intercollegiate. They played much better in the last four tournaments, finishing second in the Marshall Invitational, second in the Tennessee Intercollegiate, first in the Southern Conference, and tying with Texas A M for seventh in the Southern Intercollegiate. Strong golfers were Mike Hulbert, Terry May, Art Whaley, and Steve Griggs. In his last tournament as a Buccaneer, May captured the Southern Conference championship, shooting a composite score of 223 on a 54 hole course at Pinehurst. Hulbert set the pace for the team in several tournaments. In the Palmetto Intercollegiate he scored 222 (74-71-77), in the Pinehurst Intercollegiate he shot a 229 (79-73-77), and led at the Furman Intercollegiate, shooting a 148 (77-71). The Bucs pulled together at the Southern Conference cham- pionship taking four of the top five places: May took first, Whaley and Griggs tied for third, and Hulbert captured fifth. Other performers included Charlie Bryne. Stu Ingraham, and Jon Riddle. 1. Senior Mike Hulbert shot a 148 (77-71) at the Furman Intercollegiate held last spring. 2. Coach Hal Morrison, Eric Lawhon, John Riddle, Mike Hall, Charlie Byrne, Stu Ingraham, Mike Hulbert, John Corzilius, and Art Whaley. 3.

Sophomore Darryl Spelich should provide some of the depth that Morrison seeks. Morrison has a lot of respect for Mike Hulbert, touting him as a potential candidate for the pros. Eric Lawhon also figures prominately in the 1980 campaign. Morrison believes that Lawhon “may be one of the best.” With Morrison at the helm, the Bucs will continue to dominate their conference. a Ron Walli 2 Vv 1 Michael R. Snapp 3 Michael R.

Zane Branson, Noel Shannon, and J.C. Caudell secured fourth through sixth places in the 3,000 meter steeplechase, while Mark Scruton took first place in the 1500 meter run. The 1979 schedule was an impressive one that included meets with Florida, Clemson, Georgia, and Furman among other competitors.

This is the first year we have had a Women’s Cross Country Track team. They made their debut at the Memphis Cross Country Invitational, taking third place. Coach Roberts believes the Lady Bucs are at a disadvan- tage this year, since the quarter system puts the team a month behind other teams. However, he believes the cross country team will advance when we switch to semesters next year. All that potential will just loom. Ina King }) 1.

Invitational 289 Vv 1 Photo lab One of the biggest names in the competition was the 62” 272 pound shot putter Mike Carter from Southern Methodist University. Carter, a freshman, has the high school world record shot put heave of 81°. Throwing the heavier 16 pound shot, Carter recorded a 64’ 6 and one half inch throw. UT’s Rose Hauch threw the shot 52’6 and one half inches to better the best heave in last year’s nationals by two feet. Another athlete, Jim Pringle of Florida, jumped 7’ 5 and three eighths inches to better the existing indoor mark held by Franklin Jacobs by a fraction of an inch. George McHale of Texas El Paso ran the 600 yard dash in 1:08.60. Distance records may not be consi- dered because the Memorial Center track is larger than the standard indoor track. One of this year’s most impressive runners was double winner Margaret Gross who bagged victories in both the mile and two mile. In neither event was the junior from Virginia challenged at the tape. She won the mile in 4:47.03 and the two mile in 10:05. Both were new Memorial Center records. Winning the university men’s 60 yard dash was Auburn’s Stanley Floyd whose 5.97 time was better than the time in the invitational 60 yard dash which belonged to Georgia’s Mel Lattney at 5:98. With this year’s achievements it is evident that we have the facilities for a first rate track meet. It will be exciting to see future meets. Bill George ) 1.

Snapp A Great Escape “The morning wind forever blows, the poem of creation is uninterupted; but few are the ears that hear it.” — Henry David Thoreau A cool breeze off a tumbling stream and the solitude of a high ridge can offer students a refuge from the pressures of university life. An abundance of parks, national forests, and wilderness areas in East Tennessee make hiking and back- packing poplular forms of escape. The Appalachian Trail, the most widely known footpath in the National Trail System, is located only thirty minutes from campus and attracts many hikers. As the trail leaves North Carolina and enters Tennessee it passes over the grassy bald mountains of Roan Mountain State Park, a favorite camping spot. An important hiking and camping area is the Great Smokey Mountains National Park, located close enough for weekend trips. Millions of people have visited the park since its open- ing, departing with a deep appreciation of the park’s scenic beauty and wildnerness areas. Jack L.

The Sigma Nu’s are known by the symbol of the snake, which is traditionally the symbol of wisdom. Last spring signs were made by each entering so- rority to promote Sigma Nu and their philanthropy, the Sequoya School and the St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital. A scavenger hunt, having the most point value, was held all day. Selected sorority members re- trieved various, hard-to-find, and often unusual items.

A survey showed that text- books are not a popular choice in obtaining “stimulating infor- mation.” Fashion, pornography, current best-sellers, science fiction, and religious literature are among popular favorites. Ever wonder where all those eye-catching, informative, pro- fessional looking posters come from? They are a service offered by the University Center.

Nothing ordinary. We ended a decade referred to as the “lazy 70’s. We felt a uniting spirit against Iran and threatened by Russia. We moved to boycott the Summer Olympics with support from other nations. We watched a governor sell pardons and presidential candidates sell themselves. We lost national heros in the entertainment world. We were faced with draft registration, soaring oil prices, a high inflation rate, and increased crime. We noticed a greater desire in spiritual things. But how were we affected? Closing 397398 Closing We were aware but we had to cope with ourselves. We grew. We always do.
