A-6 The 1980 Quadrangle G. Jasinski G. Jasinski Editorial cartoonist of The Atlanta Constitution Clifford H. ( Baldy ) Baldowski demonstrates his talent at the program held in the Callaway Science Building. Chalk Talk Presented to Students Editorial cartoonist for The Atlan- ta Constitution Clifford H. ( Baldy ) Baldowski presented a chalk talk and lecture at LaGrange College at a fall quarter forum program. A native of Augusta, Georgia, Baldowski was educated at The Citadel, Charleston, S.C., and the Art Students League in New York City. Baldowski ' s by-line Baldy has appeared on editorial cartoons in The Atlanta Constitution seven days a week since 1957. In 1959 he won the National Sigma Delta Chi award for Distin- guished Service in Journalism for his reflections on the school crisis facing the South. In 1960, Time magazine called him one of the South ' s leading appeals to reason. In 1963, the International Council on Human Relations of The United Methodist Church asked him to com- pile a book of his cartoons on civil rights for publication during the latter part of 1964. In 1965, the National Council of Parents and Teachers honored him with a lifetime membership in that organiza- tion for his work on school drop-outs. Baldowski has participated in a university lecture series at Tulane University, North Carolina State, Mt. Olive College, and the University of Florida. He offered attending students the opportunity to ask questions regarding journalism as a career, and used his chalk drawing pad extensively through- out the lecture. If it ' s not (continued from p. 1) And then there was the time when the ground got covered with snow (the first time) and everyone turned out for the giant snowball battle in the parking lot. The LaGrange Police decided to get in on the action and drove one of their cars onto the campus only to be bombarded by several snowballs which bounced off their auto. The officer inside got out of the car and threatened to take everyone present down to the jail to spend the evening. One student decided to challenge the officer and it appeared as though the poor chap would have to exist on bread and water for a few days. The student kept talking, though, and the officer left without incident. The wizardry of Mr. Fingers amazed and intrigued many students - he affected one student so deeply that the student fainted during the show in the cafeteria. It was later learned that the student was not under the influence of the magic, but under the influence of something of a more distilled nature. Then there was the controversial and ever popular Indies vs. Pi Kappa Phi football game last fall. It seems that one of the players on the Indie team was ineligible for competition since he had not attended one of his classes that day. The Indies went on to win the contest, not knowing that this player was ineligible to compete, and later found that they would not be considered the winner of the game since this infraction had been committed. Although players on both teams were divided as to how the ruling should have been handled, it did not affect the decision made by Coach Hugh Corless. Maybe there should be a change in some of the rules? (continued) on p. 16)

The 1980 Quadrangle A-5 Alumus Fred Brown Returns to LC as Editor of Brown ' s Guide to GA. SGA Sponsors Talent Show The Student Government Associa- tion sponsored its first annual Talent Show early in March. The event attracted some 200 spectators, maybe because the 200th person entering Price Theater got a gift certificate from Mansour ' s. Anyway, under the direction of Gail Manning, the show was a success judging from the audience ' s response to the nearly twenty acts that appeared on stage. Spec Clark served as Master of Ceremonies. Winning first place was Jenny McCook for her performance of Noth- ing from A Chorus Line. Second place was taken by Murphy Pace and the Naturals, alias Betty Rosser, Carlos Heard, LePearl Baker, and Van Robin- son, singing, Prayin ' . The third place winner was Ken Reese, who sang the Barry Manilow tune, Where Are They Now? G. Jaainsk: The antics of Michael Marlin insulted some of his audience, but entertained the majority of those turning out for his show at Price Theater. LaGrange College alumnus Fred Brown, who is editor and publisher of his own mag azine, Brown ' s Guide to Georgia, gave a lecture to interested students as part of the fall quarter forum programs. Brown ' s appearance coincided with the opening of a photo contest spon- sored by Brown ' s Guide to Georgia held at the Chattahoochee Valley Arts Association. Brown, a native of Atlanta, received his A.B. degree from LaGrange College in 1964, with a major in history. While at LC he was editor of the college newspaper, The Hilltop News, and was named to Who ' s Who Among Students in American Colleges and Universities. He has been active in the LC Alumni Association, serving as National president in 1971. Following his graduation, Brown worked on newspapers in Massachu- settes and Georgia before accepting a position with Delta Airlines in 1966. At Delta he was editor of the in — house publication before being named assis- tant public relations director for the Atlanta-based airline In December, 1972, while still at Delta, Brown published the first issue of Brown ' s Guide to Georgia. At that time it was a quarterly and the December issue contained articles on hiking, biking, a restaurant review, and a museum tour in its 32 pages. Less than two months later the magazine went bi-monthly and had over 100 pages. Today, Brown ' s magazine is a monthly publication with a circulation of over 65,000. With just a dozen employees, the magazine is a quality G. Jasinski Fred Brown is an alumnus of LaGrange College - his Brown ' s Guide currently has a circula- tion of over 65,000 issues month- ly. He plans to expand his guide to include other states in the future. guide to recreation in the state, and also features in-depth stories on subjects of general interest to its readers. My hope, Brown says, is to make our publication a guide in every way: economically, politically, as well as ecreationally. It is interesting to note that the first time Brown spoke on the campus, his lecture was boycotted as a part of a student boycott of all forum pro- grams. When a student at LaGrange, Brown was an active participant in boycotts and protests of that nature.

The 1980 Quadrangle A-7 G. Jafiineki Conducting a mime demonstration on the patio, John Ammerman showed students some of the frequently used mime techniques. He is shown here in one of his better moments. MUSE Benefits Wage War on Nuclear Energy A new organization called MUSE - Musicians United for Safe Energy - began its uphill struggle to limit or perhaps eliminate the use of nuclear power plants in the United States. Sponsors of the organization are putting their money where their mouths are. Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, Graham Nash, James Taylor, Carly Simon, Bruce Springsteen, John Hall, Jesse Colin Young, the Doobie Brothers, and a host of others staged a five-night benefit in the fall of 1979 at Madison Square Garden raising an estimated one million dollars for the antinuclear movement; a live album made at the concert is expected to bring in another two to four million. Explaining their rationale for forming MUSE, the performers state that music is one of the best ways to reach a large segment of the public - especially those that will have to live with the possible effects of nuclear power. Quite a few people know how important a show of strength and solidarity is, says Jackson Browne. Those who don ' t know and just happen to come to a concert because they ' re attracted by someone they know through music - that ' s fine. We get an opportunity to tell them about the danger of nuclear power. The most exciting thing about the MUSE benefits is that they are cooperative efforts on the parts of the musicians, adds John Hall, perhaps the most outspoken of the anti-nuke musicians. He became active in the movement four years ago when a nuclear power plant was planned for a (continued on p. 8)
