Beyond the statue of Elvis and the Libertyland gate, these images of Memphis meet the knowing eye of a Memphis State student and remind him of how it is and was to be part of this experience at this time and place. Reflections, both real and surreal. Sometimes the cinemascopic panorama of a scene stretched bigger- than-life across the eye ' s curved surface, bending reality in ways it may never be shaped again. At this time and place an acceptabled phenomenon made more palatable because the time and place is right for suspending the concrete and allowing the mind to stretch as well, even if the perspective we brought here is altered in the process. This dreamlike lapse is neither a negation of our perspective nor a random search for something to replace it. The lapse is merely an altered and temporary state, permissible for this moment when it may never be permissible again or before. It is a time for expanding horizons and imagining what realities lie beyond that which can be easily grasped. And yet it is a time for reality as well. We seek not fantasy but knowledge; not escape but involvement; not error but truth. Our eyes are open to the fact that we are of this world. The goal is self- fulfillment but with a wider purpose. Inconsistencies. The contrasts of time and motion, beauty and the commonplace, age and eternity, vocation and avocation. ..all juxtaposed in a kaleidoscope of color or in patterns of shapes and sizes seemingly designed to confuse, only present choices. Perhaps it ' s the decisions we must now make that will take us away, one way or the other. Selections can no longer be made for us. They are ours to make. Opening 3 : : ,: ' We gaze and are astounded. We are seeing perhaps for the first time, standing on an uncertain ground, on a cold and foreign soil, at patterns spreading out before us in all directions. And only now do we realize the scope of the choices that are there. We had not dreamed them before; had not realized their expanse, their immensity. Impressionable, impatient, yet nearly immobile, we pause here to consider — because pausing as well is the purpose of this place. Like a circle, a perfect orb with neither beginning nor end, this is the time that makes us whole if we will allow it to work it ' s complete power. Looking back at some future time, perhaps through the mist of a fond memory of person, place or just what may seem later as brief contentment, we will find more than meets today ' s eyes. Beyond the statue of Elvis and the red-and-white awning at Friday ' s, these are the images which will shape the picture of our lives as we grow — BETTER THAN EVER. 4 Opening Opening 5 6 Opening Photos on pages 2-7 by Arthur A. Terry. Terry, who heads the photo-journalism emphasis in the department of journalism, was picture editor of National Geographic Magazine, and was chief of layout and production in their illustrations department. He taught at the Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, N.Y. and at the University of Missouri School of Journalism, where he also served as photo editor of the Columbia Missourian. Opening 7 8 Student Life XujUiJ, Dorm Life continued to be the topic of conversation. Whether the good, the bad, or the ugly, all the dorm rooms were filled as other students camped in lobbies and waited for someone, anyone, to change his mind and move out. The dismay continued through registration as students both old and new watched in horror as the lines grew and grew and gFCW, and pulling cards for classes became a standing room only affair. Theatre buffs held a faint glimmer of hope that they ' d survive registration to find out how the theatre department planned to top Whole Lotta Shakin ' . The musical about Memphis music, was created by Memphis State ' s Gloria Baxter and Keith Kennedy along with George Caldwell, Marshall Jacks, Joe Mulherin and Henry Swanson. All the students who survived the initial shocks were treated to the good things college life can bring as Memphis State showed it was BETTER THAN EVER. fi lidc Welcome Week 10 Working 12 Parking 13 Bookstore 14 Registration 15 Games People Play 16 Homecoming Week 18 Homecoming 20 Divine Tour 22 Studying 26 Whole Lotta Shakin ' 28 Nightlife 32 CETA 34 Fashion 36 Theatre 40 Music 46 Band 52 WSMS 58 The Daily Helmsman 60 DeSoto 62 Dorm Life 64 Miss MSU 66 Campus Speakers 68 Cheerleaders 70 Student Life 9 SAC Hosts A Watermelon Welcome ■li a «..  ' J L Snacking on watermelon is a pasttime which can be the cause of more than a few funny faces. Jo Strickland sharpens her expertise in slicing and dicing by lending a hand in the watermelon slaughter. The first couple of weeks back to school can be very tiring and also somewhat depressing because the realization that summer is over and the rat race has started again sets in. To chase away those back-to-school blahs, the Student Activities Committee sponsored a Watermelon Bust Sept. 7. The SAC admitted that the beautiful weather certainly contributed to the esti- mated turnout of 900 people. That day deans and directors from departments all over campus wielded sharp knives... to cut the 30 watermelons needed to serve the crowd. The next event was the Spirit With Pizazz concert presented at the University Center Sept. 8, followed by HPER Pool Party Sept. 9. Though the attendance for these was considerably smaller than for the Watermelon Bust, the SAC considered the response to the activities good. The activities were brought to a close with the SAC mass meeting Sept. 12. This meeting, disguised as an ice cream social, introduced all interested students to the SAC and the various duties they perform on campus. — Sondra Lewis Photos by J. Scon Vanzandt 1 Welcome Week A slice of watermelon on a hot day can be cool, refreshing— and a little messy. Even students on the go stopped long enough to take a rest and a bite of watermelon while amused faculty members look on. Welcome Week Jobs Money. It ' s something that no college student has enough of. Assumming that they are not independently wealthy, most students either get help from Mom and Dad or get a job. In spite of the tight job market, many Memphis State students do work — on and off campus — and sometimes both. Toya Mason, a desk clerk at Mynders Hall, is one of the lucky ones who doesn ' t have to skip classes of drive like a maniac to get to work. She works 12 hours a week, and her work schedule, as is typi cal of campus jobs, is adjusted to fit around her classes. Her duties consist of answering the telephone and enforcing visiting rules. Another on-campus worker is Susan Martin. She works 18 hours per week with Computer Services where she is a trouble- shooter . It is her job to make sure that the Univac computer terminals around campus work properly, sometimes a hectic job. Most of the jobs held by Memphis State students are off campus because the ma- jority of students are commuters. Peter Anderson, one such commuter, works about 35 hours per week at a movie theatre in Whitehaven. Although he often has to work on weekends, he said he has lots of time to study once the movie starts. The bonus is getting to see all the latest movies free. Another off campus worker, Cynthia Armistead, is head nurse of orthopedic surgery at Baptist Central Hospital. Al- though currently on educational leave of absence to pursue a pre-med degree, her usual duties consist of coordinating surgical cases and keeping the doctors aware of their surgical schedule. At Memphis State University, student jobs are as varied and colorful as the students themselves. Besides providing financial support, having a job builds that all-important sense of pride and self- steem. — Ingrid Smithey Music major Cosy Collier pays the piper (and the rest of the bill collectors) by working in the game room at Putt-Putt Golf and Games on Summer.

I remember when my friends and 1 removed huge rocks from a parking place, so I could park. The things people will do for a parking place never ceases to amaze me. I remember almost losing my religion (I don ' t believe in using profanity) when I saw a car in two parking places after I had been searching in vain for 20 minutes for just one. Of all the woes I have gone through at Memphis State, parking has been my biggest one. Yet, I read in the school ' s newspaper, The Daily Helmsman that out of 157 institutions surveyed, MSU ranked no. 1 in parking availability to students. That same Helmsman article also cited a comprehensive study by Harland Bartholomew and Associates, a planning and survey firm, concluding that Memphis State does have a major parking problem. This problem is easily seen in the statistics that were shown in the Helms- man: 1. In 1980, Memphis State had 7,017 Parking spaces, 14,400 full-time undergraduates and a total of 20,656 students. 2. This year, Memphis State had 7,367 parking spaces, 15,436 full- time students with a total of 22,040 students. Nevertheless, several solutions have been proposed. These solutions consist of a parking garage (which would only house 400 cars), re-arranging of class schedules and re-routing of traffic around Memphis State. My own solution to my own parking problem, however, was to get up at 6:30am so I could arrive at school at 7:30am. — Ruth Turner Parking: A Big Problem at MSU Photos by Odric Woodson Parking 1 3 UNIVERSITY STORE: Books and More While many students and staff only ventured to the basement of the Uni- versity Center once a semester to select their text books, others found it a great place to browse and buy MSU memor- abilia, magazines, computer score sheets etc. This was due to the manage- ment of Jim Lippy and the old MSU bookstore ' s change into the University Store. Of course, this was only a reflection of things which have been building for several years. One of the most recent changes was the expanded electronics shop, contain- ing everything from transistor radios to computer hardware and software. The clothing section was redone by moving the apparel from shelves to department-store-style racks and hang- ers. Updated clothing styles were added for the fashion minded. The card stand became a department with greeting cards from several manufacturers, stationery and other paper products. During the year, plans for a gift department became a reality. Also planned was a new textbook computer system which would lessen some of the problems of ordering and reordering books and would hopefully help reduce the mark-up on used textbooks. Assistant manager Brian Young also hoped to open our own silk-screen printing shop where we can make our own t-shirts, and to isolate magazines and candy into a separate section. If approved these changes would take place as part of a five-year expansion plan. — Loretta Harder and Lisa Burleson Photo by Pholo Services James C. Lippy, University Store Manager. Photo by J.

Yes, you ' re right if you said that the answer is Registration! What exactly is registration? Well, the explanation sounds simple enough. Reg- istration is the time when a MSU student does not pass Go, does not collect $200, but heads straight for the UC to get class cards for the courses of his choice, pay his fees, and make sure that all of the correct offices and computers are aware of his existence. What does registration really mean? It means getting lost in the crowd, dealing with the frustration of not being able to get the classes you need, and practically signing away your soul for expenses. Registration is waiting in long lines, following arrows, reading a thousand signs, and wondering if this is someone ' s idea of a joke. These experiences are nothing new to the battle-scarred vets who have earned their stripes in registrations past. But what of the first-timers? What war stories had they collected their first time out? Everyone asked thought the entire system would probably run much more smoothly if computerized. It was also generally agreed that the process itself was entremely confusing and could probably be made easier. Freshman Brooke Duncan, a broadcast news major, said, There was entirely too much red tape. Those responsible for registration should definitely take a close look at other alternatives to the present system and find a way to make things move along easier. Photojournalism major Loretta Harder, also a freshmen, agreed with Brooke and added, At orientation, we were really not told what to expect (during registration). I had no idea what the process was truly like until the day I got there. Sondra Lewis, a sophomore advertising major and recent transfer student, had a different perspective: I transferred to MSU from a small junior college. Our registra- tion consisted of standing in a line, talking to a counselor, and filling out a class sheet. I knew that I was in trouble at the MSU registration the minute I saw the first arrow and looked at the first 47 signs right inside the door. Oh well, new students but same old complaints. However, freshman Steve Norman, a business major, sums it up the best: I just can ' t wait to try it again. Maybe I ' ll get everything right this time! The packet center ii only one of the many pit stops in the registration survival game for these students who did not receive their packets. After being closed out of some classes, these students retreat, hoping to discover some alternate strategies for surviving the semester.

Student Life 1 5 Games People Play With over two thousand people packed into the campus residence halls, polite conversation and TV watching could stretch only so far. Then the times of torment arrived. Students cashed their savings bonds and headed for the dark basement of the Uni- versity Center — it was game room time. This mysterious cave housed billiard tables, dart boards — and those dreaded, quarter-eating, habit-forming VIDEO GAMES. There, in that dark hole, students with frantic, calloused hands furiously worked the controls of the machines. For confirmed video junkies, wh couldn ' t find the strength to make the trip across campus to the Center, there were even some games in dorm lobbies. Joey Welsch, a junior majoring in business management, was one of the addicts. Video games are my life, he said. I ' ve seriously though about changing my major. Several other students also made videos both their pastime and play time. Some students managed to resist the vidoes, but succumbed to other forms of enetertainment. These may have included a barking contest between Robinson and Browning Halls at 1 1:30 p.m., gambling in the lobby of Smith Hall on who would be the first person to get a parking ticket on Patterson Street, or scaling the walls of Richardson Towers. Chess, backgammon and frisbee were some of the more conventional ways of keeping busy. Carla Andreas, a freshman majoring in biolqgy, said, I enjoy more intellectually stimulating pastimes, Ms. Andreas, known as the Tiddly-Winks Champion in seven states and two Canadian provinces, also claimed to be the undefeated master of thumb-twiddling. -Steve Norman Taking a firm stand against the computerized mind of a video game can be a lot harder than it looks. 16 Games Video games usually require rapid hand-eye coordination from inexperienc- ed players as well as consistent high-scorers. The game room also offers ping-pong and pool for those who prefer their games tried and true instead of new. Paranoid politics — to get them before they get you is the key rule of survival in the world of video games. Games 17 Homecoming: A Week of Festivities With party fashions, big-band sounds, colorful displays and flashy fireworks, this year ' s Homecoming was a blast — All these were used in a salute to Memphis State and Memphis Music: A Winning Com- bination. This year ' s Homecoming theme was chosen to show the relationship between Memphis State and Memphis music, according to Jo Strickland, Student Activi- ties Council advisor. The theme was selected to coincide with the reopening of Beale Street, home of W.C. Handy ' s Memphis Blues . Homecoming festivities were opened by Fashion Board models swaying in party fashions to music from the movie Flashdance. They strutted across the stage showing party goers what to wear to Homecoming activities. Also strutting across the stage was the 1983 Homecoming Court — Tina Cody, Lisa Hatchett, Vikita Partee, Angela Thompson and Lyndi Whipple. On Tuesday, the Order of Omega, a national honorary group for fraternity and sorority members and their advisors, gave a reception for the faculty members. This event, held in the University Center ' s Faulkner Lounge, provided Greek members a chance to get acquainted with faculty members. On Wednesday, a crowd of around 100 listened to Memphis State ' s jazz band, Southern Comfort. The MSU Birdland Repertory was also featured. Thursday was the day the Homecoming displays were seen along Central Avenue. Built by several student organizations and judged by art department members, win- ning displays were announced at the pep rally that night. They were: first place Tiger Victory Will Have Eagles Singing the Blues, by Alpha Gamma Delta Sorority and Sigma Chi Fraternity; second place, Rock-n-Roll Over the Eagles to Make Them Sing the Blues, by Alpha Delta Pi Sorority and Sigma Phi Epsilon Fraternity; spirit award was given to Delta Gamma Sorority. The pep rally ended with fireworks flashing over a crowd of about 1000 while the Memphis State band played such songs as Hold That Tiger and Eye of the Tiger. Spirit With Pizazz performed to the 487 people who attended the first sold-out Mississippi River Showboat Dance in its four-year history. Th e band satisfied musi- cal tastes from New Wave to soul music. The partying continued on the Saturday before the 46th Annual Homecoming game with an old-fashioned barbecue sponsored by the MSU Alumni Association and music performed by Turning Point. At half-time, the Homecoming Court was presented and Memphis State ' s March- ing band saluted Memphis. Selections in- cluded Elvis ' Love MeTender and W.C. Handy ' s Memphis Blues. Even though Tiger fans were disappointed by the final score of the game, 27-20, they were treated to an exciting second-half rally from a 20-0 deficit at half-time. — Ruth Turner The Tigers never gave it less than their best during the game with the University of Southern Mississippi, despite the 27-20 loss. 18 Homecoming ' ■ ' . ■ .•Wr% a ' Xw ify i t W y r ' v n ' f w ' mw ' - --. ..- . -t ' iiHBmimmn Colorful Homecoming displays exhibited student creativity as well as involvement during the week ' s activities.

This year ' s members were Tina Coda, a senior business-secondary education major; Lisa Hatchett, a senior broadcast major; Vikita Partee, a junior pre-med major; Angela Thompson, a senior computer engineering technology major and Lyndi Whipple, a junior accounting major. In order for a young lady to be a candidate for the Homecoming Court, she must be enrolled for a minimum of six semester hours at the time of election. She must also have a 2.5 G.P.A. or more. According to Jo Strickland, adviser for the Student Activities Council, the Homecoming Court was representative of the girls at Memphis State. She said the court, which was introduced at the annual Homecoming Fashion Show and again to over 1,000 people at the Homecoming pep rally, also represented MSU during other Homecoming activ- ities such as the Riverboat Dance, the Saturday barbecue, and the 46th Annual Homecoming game. Homecoming Week can be hectic, but it is a lot of f un, Strickland said. Agreeing with Strickland, Tina Coda, who was sponsored by Delta Gamma Sorority, described participating on the Homecoming Court. It ' s different; it ' s a lot of fun, and I enjoyed it, she said. Besides being a member of the Home- coming Court, Coda was president of Delta Gamma Sorority, treasurer of the Student National Education Associ- ation and active in the Order of Omega. Lisa Hatchett, sponsored by Delta Zeta Sorority and Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity, said she enjoyed reigning on the Homecoming Court. She exclaimed, Photo by Art Gridcr |rr?§l Mr 39 MnP - : - f ' B ■B ' :■; !9jfl W JhI % BB - j£M Bl, -fll - fr ' B If r Tina Coda Photo by Terry Sweeney Lisa Hatchett It ' s an honor to be selected by your fellow students to represent the Tigers during the Homecoming Festivities. Hatchett also models for the Fashion Board and is active in the Blue Chippers. Vikita Partee, the representative of the Black Student Association, also felt that being a member of the Homecoming Court was an honor. She said that being elected was a big responsibility. Yet, she said that it was a reponsibility that she welcomed. It has made me feel part of MSU, she said. Vikita was also a resident adviser in Richardson Towers North. Lyndi Whipple, a candidate for both Sigma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity and Alpha Deta Pi Sorority, also felt pri- vileged to serve on the Homecoming Court. Her exclamations about her reign were, I feel privileged! It ' s exciting! It ' s an honor! and it ' s fun! Whipple was also a member of the Student Ambas- sador Board. Angela Thompson, the Pan-Hellenic candidate was also a member of the Homecoming Court. She is also treasur- er of Delta Sigma Theta and a member of the Minority Engineering Club. Other candidates were Tracy Ander- son, a junior accounting major; Sarah Carroll, a senior management major; Denise Drummond, a sophomore medi- cal records administration major; Jen- nifer Harthum, a senior graphics design major; Anna Jefferson, a senior produc- tion management major; Beth McLeod, a senior advertising major; Missy Webb, a senior special education major and Janice Grisamore, junior marketing major. — Ruth Turner Photo by Art Grlder Vikita R.

More than 75 Egyptian antiquities and art objects went on display in what the Art Department called its most ambitious project to date. Students and the commu- nity were afforded a rare glimpse of statuary, reliefs and papyri of this ancient civilization. The pieces represent Egyptian culture from 3500 B.C. to the seventh century. The objects were painstakingly collected from such donors as the British Museum, the Brooklyn Museum, the Detroit Institute of Arts and the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. In addition, both the City of Memphis and the Memphis Pink Palace Museum loaned pieces. Numerous anonymous col- lectors contributed works to complete the exhibit. Heralded as the largest exhibition of Egyptian antiquities in this part of the country since the visit of the Treasures of Tutankhamun , the exhibit opened Oct. 6 with a fanfare of belly dancers, Arabian horses and visiting dignitaries. Egyptian Ambassador Dr. Ashraf Ghorbal also paid a call. Students greeted the arrival during half- time of the Virginia Tech game, as the University Band played King Tut while forming Egyptian symbols, and belly dancers gyrated across the field. Divided into four sections, the Divine Tour explored ancient Egyptian concepts of religion, focusing upon the major centers of worship; Memphis, Thebes and Abydos. Some of the highlights included statues of Isis and Horus, the Triad of Deities from ancient Memphis, a life-size statue of the lion-headed goddess Sakhmet, and the mummy of Ankh Ptah Hotep, who died during the first century. Also on display was the gallery ' s own permanent collection of Egyptian art, the only such collection in the Mid-South. A lecture series by a group of world- famous Egyptologists accompanied the exhibit. The exhibit and lectures were both free and open to the public. The program was made possible through grants from Union Planters National Bank, Republic Airlines, the Tennessee Commit- tee for the Humanities and Walker and Associates, Inc. 22 Divine Tour £ M I ■itmnimiti Divine Tour 23 Images of the Memphis 24 Divine Tour of the past . . . Divine Tour 25 Studying — The Inevitable Evil Sooner or Later. . . Studying — no one enjoys it but if you ' re a student at Memphis State, or any other college, you ' ll have to do it sooner or later. It ' s not too much fun but it can be made tolerable if you have the correct methods and proper atmosphere. Many students need total silence with no distractions but others, such as Dave Skorupa, a freshman journalism major, prefer to listen to music while they study. Dave also said dim lighting helps him, but others may like brighter light. Every student has a different way of approaching the task. Many study their text books or their notes. Alicia Plunk, a sophomore journalism major, says she likes to prepare study sheets and outlines to help her. Where you study and who you study with are also important factors. It appears that most students nowadays prefer to study alone. All-nighter group study sessions seem to be out. Tracy Colston, a senior accounting major, says she ' s been to one but they make her so tired that she does poorly on the test the next day. Most people like to study at home or right here at the University. But some people find more interesting places to study. For example, freshman music major Alicia Lee, likes to study in her car. Now we come to that most dreaded topic — tests. Some people get upset about them or become a little uneasy. However, most tests are pre-announced so there ' s usually no need to panic and plenty of time to prepare for them. However, many students still wait until the last minute to study for their exams. Everyone knows what it ' s like to cram for an exam. Even the most studious and organized students have been guilty of it at one time or another. Sometimes it can ' t be helped but it should be avoided as much as possible. Obviously, finals are the greatest cause of apprehension to most test-takers. T hey are, as Dave Skorupa observes, like the last nail in your coffin. The times that people study and how long they study differ depending on the number and difficulty of the courses they take and whether they work or not. Many study on their free time over the weekend. Others prefer to save the weekend for fun and study after school or after work on Mechanical engineering majors Sharariar Abolghasemi and Reza-Madjdi consult with one another on an assignment. Studying with friends can often make the time-consuming task a little easier. 26 Student Life weeknights. Still others study simply when they can find the time. Now for everyone ' s favorite part of studying— breaks! Some people like to take naps, eat or watch TV. Some like Alicia Lee, prefer to go out to ease the tension of studying. Breaks are an important part of the study process and should be taken regularly. So, it would seem, studying isn ' t as bad as many think it is. Especially if you study properly, in the right places, with the right people and take plenty of breaks! — Melissa Robbins Lane Garth plows through class material while Stephanie Schuler has chosen an easier past-time. Preparing for class outside the library for a change of pace can be just as beneficial as studying indoors. Taking time out to give a photographer a smile can be a welcome distraction from studying.

They promised to do a whole lotta shakin ' , and they didn ' t let their audience down. The cast of Whole Lotta Shakin ' con- tinued to thrill Mud Island audiences last summer — its second in a row — with a few changes in the cast, composition, and choreography of the show. Shakin ' , the first musical highlighting Memphis ' music heritage, trimmed its original cast of 24 members, 12 men and 12 women, down to 20. Unlike its premier run, all cast members in the updated show had a Memphis connection. Artistic Dir- ector Keith Kennedy called the switch a tremendous help. These talented young people are key products of the culture the show is about, he said. He also said the change helped the cast ' s morale. According to Marcquinne Charles, dance director, a student at Memphis State ' s Law School, and an original cast member: The energy of the show is much different, much greater. People from Memphis in the cast now care about the show and have a good time with it. There ' s more support among cast members and from the administration. The beginning of the show was histor- ically accurate, but for the general public it wasn ' t entertaining in a showbiz kind of way, said the returning music director George Caldwell. It was shortened from 1 2 minutes to a four minute medley. Vocal click tracks, recordings of the songs, were made in a studio and played behind the singers to reinforce the sound during the show. This cleared up the sound problems, which detracted from the performances during the first run. Gloria Robinson, another veteran of the cast and student at Memphis State, said the show changed a whole lot! The biggest difference is the familiness of the cast. Everybody ' s enjoying what they ' re doing, she said. The biggest difference for Robinson, however, was her solo Gee Whiz, sung by Memphis State ' s Lori Brown in the original show. Robinson is a veteran of USO shows and has performed at Libertyland for two years. A surprise addition to the cast was 16- year-old Kirsten Kite. Special lines were written into the show to suit her youthful demeanor. Kite said her experiences among older cast members were different . You gotta adjust yourself so you can get along better, she said. But it ' s fun. 1 like it better than working with people my own age. She quickly added that the cast members tease her about her size. She also complained that her friends at school talked about the show all the time. I don ' t like to talk about it around them, she said. Teachers at Overton (High School) point out my mistakes all the time. When relatives come, my parents always show videotapes of me, and I go upstairs to watch television. Tim Shipman warms up for the grueling practice ahead as other cast members follow his lead. Sandy Beach leads a portion of the ensemble in a rousing rendition of Tutti Frutti. Student Life 29 ...and the SHAKIN ' continued In the next five years, Kite plans to continue her showbiz training in Memphis State ' s commercial music program. Her previous experiences before Shakin ' in- cluded a performance at the Westinghouse Convention in Las Vegas and the lead in To Kill a Mockingbird at Playhouse on the Square. First timer Tim Shipman said the show was a great experience. It ' s a natural rush to hear people say ' Memphis is proud of you. Thanks for what you ' re doing. ' It ' s stretched me to my limits, he added. I ' m not that much of a dancer, and it made me sing higher than I thought I was capable of. What were the rewards of appearing in the cast? Shipman won a part in the chorus of Pirates of Penzance at Playhouse on the Square in the fall. He also got a steady job singing at Memphis Memories. He called the experience invaluable in more ways than one. It ' ll keep me working for the next year, he said. What are the future plans for the show? Kennedy said the show could possibly run in New York. All of that is only pipe dreams, he said, because it would cost about $1.5 million to do it.

Going out to eat rates first and foremost with students. But the pricetag most often determines the menu. A quick hamburger at Wendy ' s goes for $1.29 and may be considered more fast-food survival than an outing to many students. But the range traveling up or down the Strip is modest and can go through a barbeque at Little Pigs for $1.79 to a medium-size pizza at Garibaldi ' s for $6.69 to $7.75, depending on the style of crust. Those students not limited to the campus area can find something to fit any pocket- book, anything from the $1 plus ham- burger to a $75 meal for two in some of the better Memphis restaurants. Going out for a drink may suit even more lifestyles, and depending on the place and the hour, students can find a 25c beer or go high class at $3.50 for a mixed drink. Happy hours with two-for the-price-of-one drinks are pretty com- mon, if that ' s your pleasure. Video games have captured a large student following and for the addicts who can ' t wait for a game at the University Center, there are ample machines at establishments and arcades all around the town. Cost: 25c to 50c per game. Sound cheap? Not for a novice player! The ever popular Saturday night movie is not a cheap outing any more. Though if you ' re lucky, you may find just the movie you want to see is showing at the UCorat one of the free— or at least inexpensive- film festivals at the library. Brooks or Dixon art galleries. If you MUST have first run, it can cost you up to $5 for a night at the movies. For the sports enthusiast, not only does Memphis State offer a dazzling variety of spectator sports, but there is also plenty of time and space for the do- it-yourselfer. Swimming, tennis and in- tramural sports are all available to any stu dent. The city sports scene is also growing, though it will cost you a little more to see the Showboats or the Americans. The exercise craze has hit Memphis State, just as it has taken over the rest of the USA. Here the health fiend can put on an old pair of sneakers and take a run in the park, or go spend a fortune on weights, fancy sweats and running shoes. It all adds up to keeping fit, and the cost is up to you. Dating can go along with any of the above or none of the above. But if you want a separate category for a good old- fashioned honest to goodness date, try to be original and maybe invite that special person for a walk in the rain, a house and buggy ride at Overton (in season), or a boat ride. The range is limited only by your imagination. Otherwise, try just hanging out. Good friends can make anything seem like fun. When all else fails, think STUDYING. Improve your mind. Improve your grades. Just think what it ' ll do to your image. But if that turns you off, you can always turn on your television set. No danger of improving your mind. But you might just have some fun. 32 Student Life j s- .Iff t 1 l l . ll I • 1 • ■ . w ■ ft I 1 i • it .

Each summer 14-to-l 7 year olds are taken under the wing of the Comprehensive Employment Training Act to learn job skills and earn while learning. Last year, possibly the last summer for the program due to federal budget cuts, 62 young people, recommended by their schools, churches and the Tennessee Department of Employment, got their chance at performing arts jobs and training. Everything from props and scenery design to writing and acting was fair game for the students as they created a final graduation show. These young people were offered a kind of atmosphere that enhances the total child, according to Erma Clanton, associate professor in theater and communication arts. Fourteen-year-old Diane Young of Melrose High agreed with Miss Clanton and added that the classes on self-awareness helped her become more conscious of herself in relation to others. Young said she learned that she shouldn ' t get upset because people do things, but keep your cool and accept things as they come. Another 14-year-old from Melrose said the self- awareness classes helped her bring out more of her personality and gave her a lot more self-confidence. She added that the world of work classes helped her to learn how to complete employment applications and how to present herself on job interviews. Seventeen-year-old Jackie Jones of Fairley High said, it didn ' t matter if we got paid or not because they did a lot of things we really liked to do. Also, she said that they got help in such classes as English. Although the atmosphere was very relaxed, Miss Clanton said there were no problems because the young people had a set of rules to follow. Many people were surprised to find anything that involved dancing and acting so well organized, she added. The relaxed atmosphere allowed the students to play a major role in the type of show to be done, and the themes used related to the students ' lives in some way and had a solution, Clanton said. Most of the students were religion-conscious, but some wanted to leave the church and go out into the world. We wrote a play that involved this theme, said Clanton. The play they staged last summer, Ordinary People , was based on the story of the prodigal son. — Donneshia Owens Matrice Russell, a grateful CETA participant, presents a gift of appreciation from the group to Erma Clanton, director of the program and an associate professor at theatre of Memphis State. Tonya Carruthers mournfully watches the Prodigal Son as he heads for the bright lights of New York City. 34 EOS Foundation (CETA) Rosalind Nichols sings of the reasons why None but the Righteous shall see God. As the toast of New York, the Prodigal Son, played by Thomas Martin, enjoys the fruits of the fame he so actively sought. In the finale, the cast tings about how the problems they portrayed are those faced everyday by Ordinary People and celebrates the Prodigal Son ' s return. Student Life 35 Energetic to Elegant Since MSU has the advantage of beinga relatively large school, one can see a wide variety of exciting fashions on campus and in the classroom. Most people like to take popular items and create their own looks. Personal style is usually determined by one ' s personality and individual lifestyle, so there is no standard code of dress at MSU. Fashions range from elegant to trendy to very casual. For winter wear, dark colors, especially blacks and grays, seem to be popular. Women ' s suits sport longer jackets as well as padded shoulders and cinched waists. This winter ' s biggest trend is accessor- izing. Handbags, shoes, belts and scarves add splashes of color to the darks and neutrals. Red, yellow and teal are hot colors for accessories this year. Large earrings and bold metallic jewelry add drama to simple suits and sweater dresses. More casual looks include sweats, jump- suits and cropped jeans. The Flashdance look — layers of sweatshirts (often torn), tee-shirts and legwarmers — is extremely popular and practical for cooler weather. Striped baggy jeans are the latest look in ladies ' casual wear. For a fun change of pace close-fitting, mid-calf length jeans are worn with heels and colored hose. Fashion at MSU doesn ' t stop in the women ' s department. Men ' s clothing is also moving away from the ultra-preppy styles to a more sophisticated, tailored look. Sportswear separates are topping fashion lists this winter. Tailored slacks are seen under bulky sweaters or tab-collared shirts in bold colors. Tweed is a definite frontrunner; a tweed jacket is almost a must have. Men ' s casual looks this winter center around more neutral colors. Camoflauge- patterned pants and jackets are big again and jeans, as always, are also high on the list. Pinstripes and black denim are new treatments of the tried-and-true blue jeans. Upcoming spring fashions will have a dramatic appeal. The biggest single item this spring will be the chemise and similar waistless styles. For optimum versatility they may be belted or worn loose. Look for bright, neon pastels and white cotton. Loose, unstructured jackets and longer, fuller skirts will be popular, as will loose, Winter and spring have never looked better at Memphis State! Just a short walk across campus will reveal the special flair that so many students have for dressing to suit their personalities. — Ingrid Smithey 36 Fashion Memphis State Fashion Displays a Unique Range of Apparel The DeSoto would like to thank Gloria Vaught, a junior marketing major, and Hilary Hines, freshman for allowing us to use photographs from their portfolios.

Koertge. Tartuffe, astory of religious hypocracy, takes place in Paris in 1929. It focuses on the plight of Oregon family who have become virtual slaves to Tartuffe, a shyster whose supposed religious piety has kept the master of the house in the dark as to his true nature. However, the other members of the household see Tartuffe for what he really is and plot to expose him. Through a chain of events that has the audience screaming for Tartuffe ' s blood by the last minutes of the play, the villain is seen by all for the snake he is. But just when ill-gotten victory appears to be his, it is snatched away and he learns, all too well, that crime doesn ' t pay. Besides giving its audiences fine serio- comic entertainment by a capable cast, Tartuffe was also an elegant visual treat. Jan Chambers, making her debut as the MSU Theatre ' s scenic designer, created a set which contributed greatly to the rich 1920 Parisian atmosphere. — Sondra Lewis Mariane (Emily Woodward), Damis (Alan Frazier), C leante (Hermit Medsker) and Dorine (Barbara Beatty) explain their problems with Tartuffe to Elmire (Donna Kimball).

Theatre 41 The Studio Theatre Is Smaller Only In Size The MSU Studio Theatre, training ground for graduates working toward advanced degrees and a showcase for smaller productions, opened its 1983-84 season with a production of William Inge ' s Bus Stop . Directed by graduate assistant Christie Bowles, Bus Stop is the story of several bus passengers stranded in a diner in a s mall town outside of Kansas City. Even though the audience is allowed glimpses into the lives of all the passengers, the action centers around the turbulent romance of Cheri, a singer and dancer in a sleazy nightclub, and Bo Decker, a belligerent, but insecure cowboy. As the story unfolds, we learn Cheri has been virtually kidnapped by Bo and they are en route to his ranch, much to her dismay. But as the play progresses, we discover that Bo is much more insecure than he appears and Cheri, Originally unsure of her feelings for Bo, cares more for him than she thought. Besides the outstanding direction and cast performance in this production, which has been said to rival the fall Main Stage production in excellence, graduate assistants Scott Bowden ' s scene design and Robin Gail Jackson ' s Costumes were also a tremendous attribute to the look and feel of the play. — Sondra Lewis Photos by J.

Theatre MSU Theatre Season Leaps Forward With Strider Strider, a play with music by Mark Rozovshy based on a story by Leo Tolstoy, was a 1983-84 MSU Theatre production which compelled audiences to use their imaginations. For those who attend shows expecting the entire world to be painted out for them with sets, props, and costumes, Strider was quite a shock. We, the audience, were taken through Russian countryside, city streets, and lavish apartments, decorated only by the barest of sets and props, the rest provided courtesy of our own imagination. Strider is simply the story of the birth, life, and death of a horse. However, Strider was born a piebald, considered undesirable in a horse. It is this fact which separates him from the other horses and causes him to lose Swan, his only true love. After a few years of glory in the city, Strider returns to his birthplace, old and worn, to become an object of scorn to the other horses and to eventually be killed by his master. However, Strider is more than just a depressing horse story. Through Strider ' s thoughts we can draw some very true conclusions about man ' s treatment of anyone or anything different — and the tragic results it can bring about. Directed and staged by Keith Kennedy and Susan Chrietzberg, Strider possesses a large cast with many performers who took on double roles. Also noteworthy was Dirk Kuyk ' s lighting design which gave the simplistic set great versatility. — Sondra Lewis Strider and Swan (Teri Harrison) tell their true feelings for each other in a moment alone.

Theatre 45 Musicians Offer Lively Schedule From Traditional to Contemporary, Sounds of Music Fill the Campus The Department of Music at Memphis State offers a plethora of traditional, con- temporary and regional musical presen- tations throughout the calendar year. Student and faculty recitals are virtually a weekly event during the academic year, but a fine program of special presentations by the department ' s bands, choral en- sembles and other groups provides musi- cal fare fit for any ear. One special presentation during the fall term was a performance of Don Pasquale by the Opera Theatre at MSU. Thomas Machen was artistic director and Robert Griffith music director for this three-act opera written by Gaetano Donizetti and Giovanni Ruffini. The production was staged and performed by undergraduate and graduate music majors with scenic and lighting design by Alex Jankowski and costume design by Kris Hanley. Opera Memphis, the community opera company, provided assistance. Another annual event of note is the Visiting Artist Recital. This fall ' s presen- tation was mezzo-soprano Marilyn Jewett, accompanied by Allison Nelson at the piano. Among jazz performances, were those by the MSU Jazz Singers, Bill Bastian, director; Blue Ascendance, Gary Topper, director; Southern Comfort Jazz Ensem- ble with Memphis saxophonist Fred Ford, and the Birdland Repertory Company, Tom Branch, combo leader. These jazz presentations were part of the Fall Jazz IV and the Annual Homecoming Jazz Concert. Performances were also presented by the Memphis State String Quartet, Uni- versity Orchestra, Brass Quintet, Uni- versity Wind Ensemble, Percussion En- semble, Memphis State Woodwind Quintet and the several chorus ensembles at MSU Also charming the ears of the Memphis State community were The University Singers, a highly select Choral ensemble under the direction of Dr. John Cooksey. Membership in the group of approxi- mately 65 voices is open through audition. Diversity in its musical offerings is a goal of the Singers, who perform primarily at University and community functions, al- though the group does a Spring tour to promote the University throughout the region. The Singers have received many honors, including first place position at the Overton Square Christmas Choral Con- test, and the opportunity to perform for the Tennessee American Directors ' As- sociation Tennessee Music Educators ' Convention in both 1982 and 1983. The University Singers also performed for the Music Educators ' National Con- ference-Southern Division in Louisville, and received a standing ovation. The group performed as backup singers for Barry Manilow in his Memphis Concert, 1982, and served as his hosts at a workshop Manilow presented at Memphis State; The Singers are at their peak for the Christmas holiday season when they are featured in an annual Christmas concert. Music in the repertoire includes a variety of secular literature as well as spirituals and lighter pieces for the performances. Another large choir of approximately 70 persons, is the Oratorio Society, composed of Memphis State University students and faculty together with mem- bers of the Memphis community. Dr. Walter Wade directs the group which performs large choral works such as Haydn ' s Lord Nelson Mass and the Faure Requiem. The group holds re- hearsals each Monday evening during the academic year. The MSU Men ' s and Women ' s Choir is a unique organization which offers the chance to perform a wide variety of music. This group is open to both the experienced musician and the interested amateur. Designed primarily for non-music ma- jors, the Women ' s Choir was conducted this year by Jules Mercier with Bill Welsh, accompanist. The Men ' s Choir is con- ducted by Dr. John Cooksey with John Goodwin, accompanist. Sandra A. Morrow and Margie L. Winter are co- presidents of the Women ' s Choir; Alan Crone is president of the Men ' s Choir. Since their beginning in 1980, these two choirs have grown to some 45 members in each group. This newest of the choral groups at Memphis State 46 Student Life offers many opportunities for students to expand their musical and personal hori- zons as well as to promote the University throughout the Memphis community. Gospel music is a popular regional spe- cialty which is performed by the Memphis State Gospel Choir. Open to all students, this group offers the opportunity to perform contemporary gospel, spirituals and gospel hymns. Once a member of the MSU Gospel Choir, a student may audition for the Show Choir whose members are selected from the broader group. Director of the MSU Gospel Choir is Ms. Lulah Hedgeman. Highly specialized music is the bill of fare for the Camerata Singers, a small, select group of students. This choir is directed by Ms. Konnie Saliba and performs primarily medieval and renaissance music. Its annual high- light is a December presentation co- sponsored by the Student Activities Council: the Memphis State Christmas Madrigal Dinner. The 1983 Madrigal Dinner(two nights) was held in the University Center Multi- purpose Room which was converted into a 13th century English manor. Before a backdrop of tapestries, two members of the Camerata Singers served as lord and lady of the manor with the rest of the chorus taking roles of English gentry in an entertainment open to students and the public. The dinner begins as the Camerata Singers offer a processional and make a wassail toast and song. Banners and pewter adorn the tables, and diners represent towns- people visiting the manor house for the holiday celebration. A traditional dinner of choice prime rib or Cornish hen, fresh fruit and wassail precedes a flaming plum pudding dessert. During the meal, the Camerata Singers wander through the ballroom singing songs and chatting with the guests. After dinner, the singers return to the main stage for a 45-minute concert of 14th, 15th and 16th century music from Germany, France, Spain and England. Accompanied by the Collegium Winds, the Singers intensify the authenticity of the evening by performing to instruments popular during the period: the recorder, the gamba, bells and tambourines. Ready to perform their speciality, 13th to 15th century music, the Camerata Singers use renaissance and don medieval attire to heighten the effect. Amajor project is the annual Christmas Madrigal Dinner which begins with a processional and wassail toast and proceeds to an elaborate tra- ditional Yuletide meal.

Opera Offers Fun, Drama For those of you who like a little move- ment with your music, the MSU Depart- ment of Music offers their Opera Theatre. For their 1983 fall production, the depart- ment chose Don Pasquale, the story of an old bachelor who marries, an act which brings disastrous results. Two seperate casts were chosen to present the production on alternating nights, giving the viewing public a chance to receive a double dose of department ' s talent. Com- plimenting the fine vocal performances were the bright costumes and sets. The comedy, with music by Gaetano Donizetti and libretto by Giovanni Ruffini. was under the artistic direction of Thomas Machen and the musical direction of Robert Griffith. — Sondra Lewis Opera 51 MSU MARCHING BAND Deranged is only one of the many terms used to describe the 240 people who masochistically marched two long hours every weekday during football season. The members of the marching band convened on Memphis State ' s campus almost two weeks before classes started. During band camp, the students marched five to seven hours a day and spent three hours in an indoor rehearsal. After school started, the band practiced two long hours every weekday, as many of the residents of Robison and Hayden Halls can verify. Whenever the band people took up their weapons and attacked the practice field, Dr. Sidney McKay and Mr. Arthur Theil, the band ' s directors, could be seen (and heard) teaching the mad mob a new half-time show. Last season, the band performed five different half-time shows. Their first show consisted of Star Wars themes and the Ewok Celebration Song. ' The band saluted the arrival of the Egyptian Art Show at the MSU Art Gallery by learning a special Egyptian show which opened with Aida and closed with King Tut. The band also learned a show in honor of Memphis Music for the homecoming football game. Gotta Get to Memphis, Elvis ' Memphis and Love Me Tender, and Greatest Love of All were some of the songs performed during the MSU Southern Mississippi game. Each year, the MSU Band hosts the Mid-South Invitational High School The Mighty Sound of the Souths last half-time show was one of their most dazzling and creative! The show opened with the circus song (Thunder and Blazes). The Bengal Lancers put down their flags and displayed a beautiful, multi-colored maypole. After a concert tune, the band performed a percussion feature, Carnival. The show ended with Greatest Love of All as arranged by a member of the band Freshman saxophone player Jeff Davis exhibits one of the many fashions and trends that helped marchers stay cool during band camp. Clarinet player Gary Buss concentrates on his upcoming performance. 52 Band The Mighty Sound of the South Many marchers just can ' t stand the pre- game pressure! Even though members often wonder why they wade through mud and brave the wind and rain on the practice field, the excitement felt as Saturday and game time roll around usually make up for all the work into practice. Mellophone player Dan McKee doesn ' t let the pressure of a performance dampen his spirits. Saxophone players Leslie Bitner and Angela Barr break from their deep con- centration on their performance the minute they see a camera.

Twenty high school bands came from Mississippi, Arkansas, Kentucky, and Tennessee to compete for The World ' s Largest Trophy, that went to the first place band. The Reserve Grand Champion and the Grand Champion bands from the contest marched the pre-game and half- time shows at the MSU Tulane game. Most of the music and drills used by the band were composed and drawn by the graduate assistants Ken Geise, Rhendle Millen, and Marty Courtney. Lenore Thomas helped the Bengal Lancers prepare their drills during band camp, and also helped coordinate the flag corps ' show during the season. George Schneider, a senior mellophone player, composed an arrangement of Greatest Love of All, which was used as a closer for several shows. The Mighty Sound of the South per- formed a pre-game and half-time show at every home game (with the exception of the Tulane game), and marched at the Alabama, Vanderbilt, and Mississippi State away games. Some other songs that the band performed included Thunder and Blazes (which was highlighted by two unicyclists several jugglers), In the Stone, and I Goto Rio . Of course, band does not live on march- ing alone. The Band Alumni Association held a dance for the MSU Band at the Schlitz Brewery Ballroom. There were also fun and thrills had by all at the annual band banquet. This year ' s mad meal was held at the Hobby Hills Country Club. Although the band suffered from severe financial cutbacks, last year proved to be a prosperous year for the band. Cheri Theil, one of the field commanders, remarked, This year ' s band is better than last year ' s. Most of the band members ' attitudes are a lot better this year . The band was elated to learn that trumpet section leader Mike Yopp had decided to tie the knot. Mr. Yopp was married on October 21st, or the Friday of the open weekend before the Vandy game as most members remembered it. Each year, the band elects officers and class representatives to help Dr. McKay make some decisions involving the band. The members of the Mighty Sound of the South hold many memories of the 1983 marching season. They will never forget practicing in the cold October rain; the MSU Alabama game where they were herded 10 people to 8 seats; the death of Carla Andreas ' Toyota Corona; and the pre-game fireworks at the first football game that scared the dickens out of the unsuspecting freshmen.

Band 57 a ; A nd A II That Jazz MSU ' s Own Radio Station Moving Into Live Reports All That Jazz is more than just music to WSMS ears. It is the motto of the Memphis State radio station, which began brodcasting with an all-jazz format in 1979. The overall format remains primarily jazz, but has grown to include such special features as Tiger football, basketball and baseball home games. Lady Tiger home games and live broadcasts of musical presentations from Harris Auditorium. Other live coverage includes 7:30 to 9 a.m. traffic reports which concentrate on campus parking conditions (and who doesn ' t need it?), The Miss MSU Pageant and all Metro Tournament basketball. Live gospel music by the Spirit of Memphis Quartet is featured Sunday mornings between 8 and 9 a.m., and a special feature, Tell It Like It Is is aired three times daily with students giving their opinions on important topics of the day. It takes a lot of technical know-how to keep those broadcasts going as Tom Mann has learned. 58 wsms Approximately 40 students are involved in the operation of the station with an additional 10 who work out of the news department in the Meeman Journalism Building. The station news is fed directly from the newsroom to the station in the Theatre and Communication Arts Building. The primary concern of the station now is to increase the power, and thus the coverage and signal quality of the station, according to General Manager Bob McDowell. Presently we are investigating several alternatives - including the possibility of building our own 400 foot tower in Shelby County and increasing our power from 250 watts to 10,000, McDowell said This change will increase our coverage from a 7 miles radius to an approximate 20 miles, he said, and will greatly improve our signal quality.

Campus News Hot off the Press Daily Helmsman Covers the World With Student Reporters, Editors The presses roll and Memphis State ' s latest news hits the stands in the Helmsman. This free student paper is published Tuesday through Friday. It brings information on campus activities to all students. The editorial staff includes an Editor-in-Chief, two associate editors, (one of whom is also the photography editor), a business manager, and a General Manager — a new position formed this year. Most reporters for the Helmsman are members of the Journalism Department ' s Reporting Class. Each reporter is given a beat — for pratical purposes, a building — to cover and is responsible for reporting any activities occurring in that building. If there is a meeting of a special committee, or a student gathering (i.e. a pep rally), a reporter is assigned to cover it for the Helmsman. Writing these articles is a requirement for the Reporting class, and its instructor gives the articles to the editor. Each member of the class is also required to work in the Helmsma n office for at least one hour per week. According to fall editor Kathy Krone: We try to be as professional as possible, but most of the staff is inexperienced. The newspaper is organized as a learning experience. It gives the journalism students an opportunity they might not get otherwise. Not all of the members of the Helsman staff, however, are journalism students. Any MSU student may join the staff. Producing a paper four days a week involves long hours and dedication, said Krone, who admits to averaging between 10 and 15 hours per day in the office. She said that you sacrifice a lot, but if you are serious about journalism, it gets in your blood, and the experience will stick with you. On the day before the paper comes out, most articles are turned in by 3:30 p.m. to allow enough time for them to be typeset and laid out and printed. The typesetting is done in the Journalism building, but the paper is printed elsewhere. At 2 a.m. a courier picks up the flats, from which the paper is printed, drives 70 miles to New Albany, Miss., where the 9,500 copies are printed, and delivered to MSU by 6:30 a.m. Trina Jones is the General Manager. She considers herself the behind the scenes administrator. Her responsibilities encompass all facets of the Helmsman: advertising, editorial, and production. Her major job is to be available when needed to give advice to the editors, or to help smooth out a problem that may arise. Jones emphasizes that this is a student newspaper. It is an educational tool for the students, she said. They have the responsibility of putting the paper together. I am here for them if they have any problems. —Susan O ' Connor 60 Helmsman It takes a lot of people to produce a daily newspaper, and it ' s never easy to catch editorial and production staffers in one place at one time.

What is the DeSoto? Ask that question to any number of students and the odds are that one will get answers ranging from The what? to Wasn ' t he some explorer or something ' . ' Well, yes, DeSoto was some explorer or something, but that isn ' t the right answer to this question. The correct answer is (drumroll, please). ..the Memphis State yearbook. Why all the fuss over a yearbook? Well to start with the obvious, the DeSoto is a book of memories, most of them good and a few, unfortunately, sad. Nevertheless, it is all the times we can look back on and remember how we felt at a certain place and time. The names, the faces, the activities and events it would be a challenge for any MSU student to look through the book without finding some- thing that would call up a few special memories. A second important aspect of the year- book is the staff. Whereas other student publications on campus are staffed mainly by journalism and English majors, the DeSoto has staff members from all aspects of the campus. For example, Jacqueline Jones, fall editor for the 1984 DeSoto, was a journalism magazine major, but spring editor Scott Vanzandt carries a chemistry major. Third, since the book is worked on over a great deal of time, staffers can learn about every aspect of publication from the original creation of ideas for the book to gathering the necessary information to layout and paste-up. Yet, in spite of the lengthy production time, there is still the challenge of meeting deadlines with work to be proud of. Finally, the best asset the book possesses is the fact that it is a book full of information. Students, faculty, admini- stration, campus organizations and events - the DeSoto has the scoop on it all, both facts that are public knowledge and in- formation that is not so well known. The DeSoto is not what everyone thinks it is. And thank goodness! Who would want an explorer or something as a yearbook? —Sondra Lewis The following staff members are not pictured: Donna Spencer (business manager), Ruth Turner, Ingrid Smithey, Lou Carmichael, Tonda Brewer, Clayton Reed, Jill Butler and Stacy Powell.

' DeSoto 63 DORMS: There ' s No Place Like Home Aside from the terrors of moving, the inconveniences of cracker-box rooms, the loss of privacy because of a roommate and the constant cries for any food not warmed up in a microwave for the sixth time, some dormies still felt dorm life was all they could ask for. Residents searched for anything from Cap ' n Crunch posters to empty beer bottles to give their room a homey (rather than homely) look. The 1 1 dorms, which ranged from the casual simplicity of Hayden Hall to the big Hilton feeling of Richardson Towers, housed 2,285 students this year. For most freshmen from out of town, the first week meant seven days of suffering until they could get home for those things the Residence Life office did not provide: rugs, posters, dressers with adequate drawer space, comfortable chairs, lamps, food — and money. After the first month of school, most dorm rooms had reached the minimum requirements needed to be classified as a home rather than a cell. Pam Riddick, a junior majoring in education, who lived in Richardson Towers during the fall, liked the conveniences of on-campus living. Riddick enjoyed always having some- one around. Living in a dorm, you ' re never lonely, she said. Ann Spell, a sophomore majoring in public relations, resided in Smith Hall and cited another plus. Living on campus helps cut down on parking problems. You also meet a lot of people you wouldn ' t meet if you commuted or lived in an apartment. According to Rawls Hall ' s Laura Stickel, Home is where the hot water and air conditioner are. Stickel enjoyed campus living even though Memphis wasn ' t quite like Henderson- ville. While lacking home-cooked meals, comfortable beds, clean bathrooms, and well-stocked refrigerators, dorm residents had some advantages over commuters. Dormies got a head start on parking, learned a good deal about the campus, and discovered never-be- fore-seen ways of conquering absolute boredom. Though there were times when residents may have wanted to run madly out of the building and never lay eyes on it again, there were also times that made dorm life enjoyable: short- sheeting the bed of that guy who shaved once a month and never cleaned out the sink; using a hair dryer to blow baby powder under the door of that girl who kept the floor up every night laughing hysterically at Leave It to Beaver reruns; spraying Lysol on that person who always concocted the worst smelling garbage for dinner and smelled up the entire floor for a week; or using toilet paper to mummify that guy who was always — Steve Norman Junior Pam Riddick collects tid bits from all over to decorate her room in Towers North. Her room, shared with Barbara Ramey, depicts travels from Chicago ' s St. Patrick ' s Day Parade to MSU ' s Mummy Mania. Miss Riddick ' s only complaint about dorm life is that the elevators frequently break down. Rene Jamerson, physical therapy major, hit it lucky and got a little moving help from a friend, Todd Frayser. making her move into Rawls Hall with only barest necessities took more muscle power than most newcomers expected. 64 Dorm Life Probably one of the most valuable possessions from home is a person ' s pillow. Smith Hall resident Ann Spell agrees with this fact since she travels by bus a good deal with the band. Laura Stickel lived in Rawls Hall where she was known for her notorious invasions of her friends ' rooms. Here, Miss Stickel has intruded upon Trudi Pruett who lived down the hall from her. Studying is not one of the more frequent habits of people who live in the dorm. Here, Jamie Burks is caught out of character as he studies for his class.

In a dazzling display of beauty and color, the contestants line up for the judges ' final inspection. Definitely on her toes, Ellen Andrews treats the audience to a spirted talent exhibition. Lisa Koehler ' s shining smile, as well as a beautiful gown, helps to paint a picture ol delicate Southern beauty. ...And Please the Crowd, Naturally We ' ve Got the Beat. At least that ' s what 14 contestants vying for the Miss Memphis State title believed April 9, 1983 at the University Delta Lounge. First place winner of the title and $250 was Sharon Denise Russell. Sponsored by Phi Mu, Ms. Russell is a 19-year-old sophomore communications and broad- casting major. First runner-up, Paula Everitt, a junior in early childhood education, was self- sponsored. She won $150. Second runner up was a 21 -year-old senior majoring in fashion merchandising, Cathy Young. She was sponsored by Alpha Gamma Delta. Miss Young won a double award of $100 and the title of Miss Congeniality. About 800 people attended the compe- tition which included three events: talent, swimsuit and evening gown, and personal interview. Ms. Russell won all three events. Her talent performance was a jazz-acrobatic routine to Paul Jabarrei ' s Yankee Doodle Dandy . Miss Memphis State 67 Lecture Circuit Sparks Campus The lecture circuit at Memphis State has been electric and ecclectic, with talks ranging from the future of black women to life with The Beav. The Consumer got a fair share of at- tention when consumer advocate Ralph Nader hit campus last spring and showed the world that he still hasn ' t forgiven and forgotten General Motors ' sins. And he has added a few other corporations to his list as he urged students to get together to fight crimes in the marketplace. Nader, who took on the auto industry in his best-seller Unsafe at Any Speed , won a lawsuit against General Motors for in- vasion of privacy, and used the $425,000 settlement to begin his consumer interest movement. Public Citizen. His visit followed a March talk by Shirley Chisholm, first black woman elected to Congress, and the first to seek the Democratic nomination for the U.S. Pre- sidency. She warned her audience that she did not like President Reagan ' s policies one bit and urged a speedy return to caring for the poor and elderly who are unable to care for themselves. Moving out of the political arena and into the private sector. Dr. William H. Masters, human sexuality authority, told students that sex is a natural function which improves as communication between the partners improves. The doctor covered a variety of myths and misconceptions which cloud human sexual activity in his March speech in the University Center. Human sexuality expert Dr. William H. Masters told students that sex is a natural function which improves as communication between partners improves. Political activity was very much in the news during the early fall and the campus was not immune to campaign fever. May- oral hopefuls D ' Army Bailey, Otis Higgs, Timothy Mathews and L. A. Tony Watts spoke Sept. 19. Although Mayor Dick Hackett and Robert Prince Mongo Hodges didn ' t make it to the forum, the others presented their platforms and tried to point out how they differed. Mayor Hackett appeared later in the year at a Snack n Rap session. Presidential fever then struck, and the campus was treated to visits from Demo- cratic contender, the Rev. Jesse Jackson Nov. 30. His speech had students cheering as he called for a new coalition, a new course and a new leadership. A few days later, former astronaut Sen. John Glenn (D.,Ohio) made an appearance speaking of his agriculture program as he tried to interest Mid-Southerners in his presidential bid. Other astronauts also found the Memphis State campus a powerful draw, as Michael Coats appeared in September to discuss the space shuttle program, and Brig. Gen. Charles Duke, one of the few men ever to set foot on the moon, spoke in January. Governmental agencies sent representa- tives to garner support for programs, clarify issues and generally educate the public on how government affects every life. Dr. Murray L. Weidenbaum, former chairman of President Reagan ' s Council of Economic Advisers, made an October appearance to describe an economic policy for the 1980s, and Sherlene McCarther made a trip to Memphis to recruit for the Peace Corps. The darker side of governmental activity was discussed by former CIA agent John Stockwell who, in a March speech, urged the dismantling of that agency. The lighter side of the news also got its fair share of student time and attention with the September performances of The Amazing Kreskin , billed as the world ' s foremost mentalist, followed in February by the one and only Beaver. Jerry Mathers, who starred in the popular television series, Leave It to Beaver found an enthusiastic audience ready to he ar about his life as a child star. More specialized subjects were dealt with by speakers sponsored by a variety of campus groups. The River City Contemp- orary Writers ' Series offered a number of lectures by authors and writers. Journalists heard Bernard Kalb, NBC ' s State Depart- ment reporter talk on Freedom of Infor- mation at the annual FOI Forum. And Dr. Robert Arnot, a consultant to the Inter- national Olympic Committee, spoke on science and sports. Arts and religion came into focus early in the school year when The Divine Tour of Ancient Egypt bowed in at the University Gallery, bringing with it a series of speakers Consumer advocate Ralph Nader told students to unite to fight crime in the marketplace . Nader, who lambasted the American automobile industry in his book Unsafe at Any Speed, is founder of the public interest organization, Public Citizen. Nader ' s Raiders have become a well known consumer force. on Egypt, ancient gods and archeology. Russian religious poet, Dimitri Bobyshev, also appeared to speak on life and religion in the USSR. Women in Action featured Channel 5 anchorwoman Brenda Wood, city council- woman Minerva Johnican, and Shelby County government representative Clau- dette Nichols in a panel discussion of what the future holds for black women. This was but the tip of the campus iceberg, for daily talks and lectures and captured interested audiences on subjects ranging from alcoholism to defense policy and from psychic phenomenon to surviving the Holocost, completing the circuit. 68 Campus Speakers The Amazing Kreskin, billed as the world ' s foremost mentalist made a campus appearance to amaze and entertain MSU students. Mayoral aspirants D ' Army Bailey and Otis Higgs came to campus in the fall to present their platforms and explain how their programs differ from that of incumbent Mayor Dick Hackett. Hackett made a later visit to the campus to speak during a Snack n Rap session. Campus Speakers 69 Winning Style Takes Spirit Squad to Orient Memphis State ' s Spirit Squad, composed of mascot, mike-men, pompon squad and cheerleaders, for the second straight year, took the champion ' s crown in the National Cheerleaders Association Collegiate Cheer- leading competition. The squad showed its winning style in the arena and via television this year. U.S. Rep. Don Sundquist led in praise of their performance saying, ...the MSU cheerleaders have now placed higher and won more collegiate cheerleading competi- tions than any other school in the country. The group won the crown in competition with 20 finalists at Moody Coliseum on the Dallas campus of Southern Methodist University Jan. 14. The complete routines of the five top winners, MSU, Michigan State University, Clemson University, Louisiana Tech University and the Uni- versity of Florida were shown on national cable television. The MSU victory received farflung acclaim, for later that month, team members were invited to perform their award-winning routines in Japan in a three-month international festival, begin- ning in the spring. The all-expense paid trip to Kyushu, Japan sends current and former members of the squad to perform at Mitsui Greenland, a theme and entertainment complex similar to Disney World in Orlando, Fla. 70 Student Life Student Life 71 72 Student Life Student Life 73 74 Academics r i i ' V . « f uJdb i(A The rafters of the administration building shook with exitement when school officials heard the news that Memphis State had received 100% acreditation in all accreditable programs offered by the university. Memphis State was the only public university in Tennessee to be so designated. The campus recording studio, the pride and joy of the College of Communications and Fine Arts, continued to create an excellent learning environment for students preparing to enter the competitive field of music. Engineering students continued to be entertained by delightful robots which helped teach the would be engineers about automation and robotics. And the school ' s academic standards increased, students began spending more time after class in tutoring sessions and began taking their lessons more seriously.

This school is the same thing asa public school — only different! Children assemble for fun in the sun. I ■ mA 2 An early start in computer training aids children in MSU Campus School. The Campus School is a public school that is run under the direction of the MSU College of Education. Unlike public schools, enrollment into the school is not determined by district zoning. Admittance to the Campus School is set according to the following factors: if the child has a parent on the faculty, if a brother or sister is in the school, and if the geographic position of the child ' s home qualifies. Parents must request that their child be admitted to the school. There are no academic requirements for admittance, but the dominant impression of the Cam- pus School is that of a superior education. The director of the Campus School is Mrs. Peggy Williamson, who was gradu- ated from Southwestern at Memphis. The assistant director, Mrs. Debbie Men- doza, has a degree from Memphis State. The 473 children at the school have acquired a healthy familiarity with the MSU campus. They use the field by the field house for recreation and they also use the pool in the HPER Complex for a swimming class. The classes at the school take tours of the greenhouse atop the Life Science Building and they also tour the MSU Art Gallery. There are 22 faculty members at the Campus School. Each one is an accredited instructor and acts as supervising teacher for students from the College of Educa- tion. The MSU students operate in a work study program at the Campus School. Several of the faculty members have degrees from Memphis State. Campus School is in its 71st successful year. Founded in 19 12 as Training School, it became the MSU Campus School in 1963. The lucky children who attend Campus School enjoy several benefits found in private schools, along with the advantages of going to a public school. — Steve Norman The playground lays silent as children are busy at work inside. 76 Education MSU Campus School offers a balanced program. WHO ' S WHO Thirty-eight Memphis State students were selected to appear in the 1983 edition of Who ' s Who in American Colleges and Universities . In keeping with the established traditions, the students were judged on the basis of their academic success, their participation in activities and organiza- tions, and their community involvement. The publication, which lists promising young Americans, was founded by Pettus Randal in 1934 in order to facilitate the acknowledgement of college students throughout the country who were recog- nized by both their faculty and peers for their outstanding services. In 1983, as in previous years, strong emphasis was placed upon the applicants ' over-all contributions; and only those who possessed the proper, well-rounded char- acteristics were selected for inclusion.

There is no military obligation for enrolling in the Basic Course. Students are not required to wear uniforms or attend leadership laboratory. However, before entering the Advanced Course, the Basic Course must be completed. To be eligible for the two-year Advanced Course, a student must be enrolled with the University, have full-time status with two years remaining as either an undergraduate or graduate and be a U.S. citizen. Final selection is based on demonstrated academic performance, leadership potential, a qualify- ing score on the Officer Selection Battery of Tests and physical qualifications. Semester field training exercises are conducted over a weekend and are an extension of the lab. Students are required to attend a six-week Advanced Camp during the summer between their two years in the Advanced Course. It is held at Fort Riley, Kansas, a U.S. Army post. Students are paid for the six weeks and are furnished quarters and rations as well as transportation to and from camp, or a mileage allowance for use of their own vehicle.

AFROTC 89 MSU HONORS PROGRAM 90 Honors The first two years of honors work at Memphis State University are taken large- ly in what is called the General Honors Program. At this level, most of the honors classes are special sections of lower- division courses that fulfill basic degree requirements, such as the introductory courses in English, philosophy, education, economics, music, history, computer programming, theater, the sciences and many others. These classes differ from regular classes in several ways: (1) they are smaller, limited to a maximum of 15 students; (2) they are taught by carefully chosen faculty who have the reputation of being excellent teachers and scholars; (3) there is more emphasis on class discussion and student participation; (4) the general quality of the class is higher, though the quantity of work done should not differ greatly from that in a regular class. Also a part of the General Honors Program is an introductory interdisci- plinary course called The Honors Forum. It is a freshman-level course designed to introduce bright students to the many intellectual and cultural opportunities available in a university community. It consists of a series of lectures, demon- strations, performances and concerts in a variety of disciplines. Any student who has completed a minimum of six lower-division hours and has a grade point average of at least 3.25 is eligible to enter one of three advanced honors tracks, which, if successfully completed, will lead to graduation with honors. The first advanced honors track available is the departmental honors program track. If a student is majoring in a department that offers an honors program, he may complete the require- ments of that program and graduate with honors in a particular discipline (e.g. With Honors in Anthropology ). The second advanced honors track is the college-level track. This provides progr ams that are college-wide and will lead to graduation with honors in a broader area than those offered by departments. At present there are three such programs: The Fogelman College of Business and Economics ( With Honors in Business Administration ), The College of Education ( With Honors in Edu- cation ), and The University College, which has a joint program with the University Honors Program. The third track is a broadly inter- disciplinary program offered by the University Honors Program itself and will lead to graduation With University Honors . It consists of a series of junior- level honors colloquia and senior-level honors seminars, with the option of a senior-level honors thesis. Honors 91 ALPHA EPSILON DELTA .. ,..;. :_; Officers Beth Windsor President Anthony Frulla Vice President Brian Devine Secretary Christina Chen Treasurer (not pictured) Gail Morton Scalpel Reporter Rachel Larussa Historian The Tennessee Delta chapter of Alpha Epsilon Delta was founded at MSU in 1974. AED originated in 1926 at the University of Alabama. Presently, there are 135 chapters across the nation. Alpha Epsilon Delta was formed in order to encourage and recognize excel- lence in premedical scholarship and to promote contacts and cooperation be- tween medical and premedical students, educators and medical professionals. To be eligible for membership in AED, students must be enrolled in 36 hours in a preprofessional program. Students must have a 3.0 GPA in science and a 3.3 GPA overall. AED ' s advisors are Joanne B. Sims, Dr. Thomas Caplinger and Dr. Peter Bridson. In February of 1983, AED hosted speaker Dr. Emil Freireich, a cancer specialist from the University of Texas Cancer Center, and also promoted a Health Career Day in March of 1983.

The motto of the honor organization is Progressus per Eruditionem. Gamma Beta Phi came to the Memphis State campus in 1977. Its purpose is to en- courage scholastic effort and to reward academic merit. Gamma Beta Phi supports WKNO Radio and St. Jude ' s Children ' s Re- search Hospital. It also participates in public television ' s Action Auction. Admission into the society is granted to those students who have completed at least 15 credit hours of graduate work and who are in the top 15% of their class. By June of 1981, there were 16,000 students who were members of the 72 chapters that existed in eleven states.

The honorary club has long been known for its emphasis upon the whole person, both as a member of the collegiate community and as a contribu- tor to a better society overall. Prospec- tive members were required not only to possess high academic marks, but also were required to have exhibited the qualities of leadership and responsibility. The MSU chapter has been especially active in the annual University-wide Honors Assembly. Judge Ann Pugh and Mr. Charles Fisher were two of the speakers that gave lectures to the club.

The recording areas feature a series of 636 console with automation, a 24-track recorder with noise reduction and a two-channel recorder by MCI and Studer. The control room and studio playback are handled by Urei Lime Aligned monitors. Some of the other equipment in the control room and lab include: DBX compressor ltmiters, Valley People signal processors (fer sure, fer sure!), Eventide Harmonizer, Akai three-head cassette deck, active direct boxes by Countrymen Associates and passive boxes with Jenson transformers. The high quality microphones are from Neumann, Sennehiser, AKG, Electro-Voice, Sure, Crown and others. The electronic lab features a Moog 3C synthesizer with 1 6 sequence units, sample and hold, 3M half-inch four-track, and TEAC1 4 inch two-track. While musicians are a top priority, it takes some sophisticated equipment and people with plenty of know-how to produce the sounds that turn the audience on. The Squeaky Wheels take a break from practice after running through their numbers in the studio. Pictured are Darrell Johnson, piano; Kenneth Harris, drums, and Gerrard McVay, guitar. The Wheels are one of eight jazz combos who brighten the scene in the Music Building. Eugene Rush is coordinator of the Division of Jazz and Studio Music who wversees the bands, combos and vocal jazz offerings. Students in Commercial Music are prepared to work in copy writing, artist management, accounting, packaging display and publishing. Students interested in music business or recording- engineering can work toward a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Commercial Music. Those interested in Studio-Live Performance or Composi- tion-Arranging may earn a Bachelor of Music degree. The Commercial Music program is well aware of the total needs of this business of music, and offers recording and engineering training as well as instruction in live performance skills.

There are currently 20 to 25 stu- dents enrolled in classes which range from management skills, bibliogra- phy, cataloging and classifying to th use of computers in retrieval ar storage. The graduate level program offers a Master of Science degree aid is proud to point out that all of H s graduates wanting a career in libraries have readily found jobs. Library Science night class undertakes a project in bibliography card cataloguing. Rebecca Robertson, left, and Joann Lynn try to concentrate on the cards rather than the camera. In two years, however, the de- partment will be phased out and training in library sciences will no longer be available in the city of Memphis or in the surrounding areas. Low student enrollment was cited as the cause. In 198 1, the department was sepa- rated from the College of Arts and Sciences and became an independent program. As a non-accredited sepa- rate division, it has found problems in maintaining an enrollment. Library sciences training in this area will soon be available only through private institutions. Going through the card cataloguing exercise are, from left, Jacque Patterson, Arlynn Katz Mirvis, John David Reabe, Connie Jackson, Rebecca Robertson and Joann Lynn.

A robot is a reprogrammable, multifunctional mani- pulator designed to move materials, tools, parts or specialized devices through variable programmed motions to accomplish a variety of tasks. That ' s an awful lot to describe the typical robots seen in Buck Rogers or Lost in Space, but that is the technical definition. Robot comes from the Czech word robota which means servitude, work or drudgery. Robots are very useful in welding, casting, forming, transporting and inspecting materials. MSU has three robots, housed in the Herff Engineering Building. Two of these are small Hero I Robots, that can be easily moved on any smooth surface. Students learn how to program and study the mechanisms of the Hero I, which cost Memphis State between $1500 and $2500. Memphis State ' s other robot is an Unimate industrial robot. Its cost can be as much as $30,000. However, the engineering department received the Unimate as a gift from Whirlpool. It is made by the Heath Company in St. Joseph, Mich. The Unimate is a stationary robot that can lift as much as 275 pounds with its mechanical arm. There are very few of the industrial type robots in use in Memphis. Those here are utilized in loading, unloading and weldin S -Felicia Smith Photos by C. Woodson THE LONG ARM OF THE LAW — Memphis States Unimate robot has a moveable arm that can lift several hundred pounds; however, the robot itself is stationary. 100 Robots at MSU The College of Engineering in the Space Age DANGER! DANGER, WILL ROBINSON! — This HERO I robot is one of the Engineering Department ' s 2 robots used by the students in that college. The small robots move about freely and cost the University $2,000. The HERO I robot is displayed to several amused and interested students. The space-age life seen in The Jetsons and Lost in Space seem ever more closer while watching the small robot roam about. HERO I slightly resembles the R2-D2 droid in the movie Star Wars. Memphis State traveled many lightyears to purchase this robot from the Jawas! Academics 101 CHUCALISSA; The Past Revisited The College of Arts and Sciences helps bring back a taste of days gone by The Chucalissa Indian Museum and Village Reconstruction is an off-campus facility of the department of anthropology of Memphis State. The museum at the site houses an introductory slide show, case exhibits on Indians and archaeology of Chucalissa and the Mid-South, and audio- visual programs covering special topics in traditional Indian customs of the region. Also in the museum are offices, a reference library, a laboratory and research collec- tions. The annual Choctaw Indian Pow-wow was held at the Chucalissa Indian Village Aug. 6 and 7. The Pow-wow consisted of Choctaw dances and games and the Green Corn Ceremony. This ceremony is de- scribed by authorities at the village as a combination of New Year ' s, Thanksgiv- ing, Yom Kippur, Lent and Mardi Gras. This revival of Indian ceremonies is part of an effort to restore traditional customs and to educate non-Indians in Choctaw culture. The area inside the village is made up of several different structures. There are nine reconstructed huts, two enclosed cases exhibiting archaeological excavations, a main mound with the village chiefs hut atop it and a village plaza. During the summer, archaeological ex- cavations are often in progress as workers try to learn more about life in the pre- historic village. There are several courses in archaeology and museum work offered at Chucalissa. These courses are part of the department of anthropology ' s pro- gram. Included in this program are regular college courses and Continuing Education courses for members of the general public who wish to learn more about particular topics. Founded in 1000 A.D., Chucalissa was abandoned and reoccupied several times during the next 500 years. The 1000 to 1500 peopl e of the final village, dating to about 1500 A.D., were capable farmers, craftsmen, and artists. They lived in per- manent towns of thatch-roofed houses grouped around the town square, raised their crops in the river bottom below the village, and made their own tools and implements of daily life as well as ceramic art. The name Chucalissa, Choctaw for abandoned houses, emphasizes that this is an ancient town rather than one still occupied by its original inhabitants. Hard work on the part of staff and students is evident at the Chucalissa Village. The College of Arts and Sciences has successfully recreated a time period that otherwise would have been lost for- ever. — Susan O ' Connor Photos Courtesy of C.H. Nuh Musturo Some of the special events sponsored by Chucalissa are Choctaw stickball games, dancing and crafts. The Choctaw game of stickball is very simil ar to lacrosse. Such events are a good display of traditional Indian activities. Several Chucalissa Indians take part in a Pow-wow at the Chucalissa Village. Part of the ceremonies includes the Green Corn ceremony which represents several of the holidays celebrated here in America. 102 Chucalissa Herff College of Engineering The Herff College of Engineering serves the educational and research needs of the industrial community, the metropolitan area, the state and the nation. It is divided into Departments of Civil Engineering, Electrical Engi- neering, Mechanical Engineering, En- gineering Technology and Geology. The Institute for Engineering Research was founded in 1970 for the promotion of participation of students and faculty in research and service activities. The Col- lege of Engineering moved into its modern three-building complex in 1 970- 71. There are 161,110 square feet of space in the facilities which house offices, classrooms and several special- ized laboratories equipped with modern furnishings. The engineering adminis- tration building houses the 3-story en- gineering library, study lounges, the auditorium and a computer terminal.

The College of Arts and Sciences goes far beyong the dissection of toads and grasshoppers. There are three major concentrated areas from the 14 depart- ments in the College of Arts and Sciences. The Humanities are composed of psychology, mathematics, philosophy, and foreign languages. The Natural Sciences range from biology to physical geography. Political science, anthro- pology, and economics are only a few of the areas covered in the Social Sciences. The Master of Arts degree programs are generally open to anyone who has completed the Bachelor of Arts degree. A Master of Arts can be pursued by students majoring in anthropology, criminal justice, English, geography, history, philosophy, political science, psychology, romance languages, and sociology. The Master of Public Administration degree programs are open to students with adequate preparation in the social sciences or in business courses. Those students striving for this interdisciplinary degree complete a core curriculum in public administration courses and a concentration in General Public Ad- ministration, Health Services Admin- istration, Urban Management and Planning, Comparative and Develop- ment Administration, Public Policy Analysis Program Analysis, or Criminal Justice Administration. The Master of Science degree program is a non-thesis degree designed for students seeking in-depth knowledge of natural and mathematical sciences. Doctor of Philosophy degrees are offered within the College of Arts and Sciences in the Biology, Chemistry, History, Mathematical Sciences, and Psychology Departments.

Over 50,000 fans jammed into the Liberty Bowl September third to witness the team ' s first winning effort against the Rebels in seven years. The Tigers carried the momentum of this victory through the football season, and campus spirit reached a feverish pitch that spilled over into basketball season. During basketball press day, present fans and future Tigers met their favorite players. The Tigers talked to fans and gave out those all-important autographs as proof of the meeting. Hackeysack, the newest sports craze to sweep the nation, also invaded campus. The Student Activities Council sponsored a three-day clinic on the University Center Mall, that ended with what was touted as the first hackeysack tournament in the city. The excitement that goes with the thrill of challenge continued to build until students could no longer contain the news that the sports at Memphis State were BETTER THAN EVER.

Athletics 127 This section of the DeSoto is dedicated to four outstanding Memphis State baseball players who died in two separate tragic accidents. Doug Granger, Richard Webster, Paul Dunn and Chip Colbert will long be remembered for the qualities they brought to the Tiger baseball team. Doug, who died in July, 1982 after an injury sustained during a softball game, was a member of the 1978 team. Although the Tigers missed qualifying for the prestigious College Baseball World Series, Doug played a major role in the setting of a team NCAA record for hitting, and personal NCAA and MSU records. These records include most at bats, most hits and most runs scored in a single game. In addition, Doug earned a place on the Metro All-Tournament Team. Richard, Paul and Chip, who died in January, 1983 in an accident, while on a duck-hunting trip also helped to set the stage for the strong 1983 Tiger season. Richard Squeaky Webster (1978-81) was probably the best defensive catcher in the history of Memphis State University. He was a member of the Metro All- Tournament Team in 1978, 1980 and 1981. In 1981, he was a member of the Metro All-Conference Team and signed a professional contract with the New York Mets. After playing for two years with the Mets, Richard was regarded as one of their top young pitching prospects. In only his second year as a pitcher, Richard posted an 8-8 record for the Lynchburg, Va. team of the Carolina League and was penciled-in as a starter for the Mets ' AA affiliate in Jackson, Miss. A transfer student from Shelby State Community College in Memphis, Paul Dunn (1981-82) was a valuable asset to Memphis State. In 1 98 1 , he experienced his greatest moment as a Tiger when he blasted two consecutive home runs at Tim McCarver Stadium against Metro Conference arch-rival, Florida State. Chip Colbert (1980-82) proved valuable to the Tiger squad both on and off the field. Off the field, his great sense of humor was the motivating factor in keeping his teammates in the right frame of mind. On the field, Chip, a two-year letterman, finished the 1982 season with an average of .332 and a percentage of .932. Chip ' s greatest moment came when he, as a freshman, belted a grand slam homerun against the Tennessee Volunteers. Doug, Richard, Paul and Chip were four great players. Although they are no longer with us, our memories of them will last forever.

The freshman right hander led the way to a 4-2 win. Photos by Photo Services Once again the Memphis State baseball team enjoyed another outstanding season in 1983 as the Tigers posted a 33-12 record, including a 25-6 showing at home and a 31-10 regular season record. The Tigers, however, were not so fortun- ate in post-season play. Memphis State was 2-2 in the double-elimination Metro Conference Tournament in Tallahassee, Fla. After pounding Louisville 13-2 in the opening round, the Tigers were edged, 4-2, by a very tough Tulane team, which Memphis State had beaten twice earlier in the season. Bubba Cummings was credited with the win in a 1-0 decision over Virginia Tech before Louisville got revenge and sent MSU packing with an 8-5 win. Memphis State had a 2-3 record against two of the best teams in the South. The Tigers were thumped, 12-7, by Alabama in Tuscaloosa early in the season. The two teams split a two-game series in Memphis as Tim Corder tied a school record of 25 career-wins set by Blair Gilbert. Corder fought off the Tide for a 5-2 win with home run help from pitcher outfielder Cummings and Allen Sigler. MSU dropped a tough 3-2 game to the Tide the very next day. South Alabama came to Memphis and escaped with a split of a two-game series. MSU won the first game, 3-1, but lost the next day, 4-3. Other season highlights included an 11-4 whipping of cross-state rival Tennessee and a 7-6 win over bitter rival Florida State. When the June baseball draft rolled around, MSU baseball fans felt sure Corder, who finished with an 8-1 record and a 2.87 ERA, would be an early round selection. The junior from Covington, Tenn., was drafted and signed a pro- fessional contract with the Boston Red Sox, bypassing his senior year at Memphis Continued The Tigers celebrate a record year with a hearty cheer and a team salute following their 4-1 win over the Tennessee Tech Eagles. With a 33-12 overall win record, the nine has something to cheer about. Outfielder Jeff Field takes a mighty swing at the ball as he works to keep his ERA high.

As a team, the Tigers posted a 3.90 ERA compared to a 6.50 mark for the opposition. Corder and Tom Ragan both pitched shutouts — Corder a 3-0 win over Tennessee Tech and Ragan a 10-0 thrashing of Illinois Wesleyan. The Tigers slugged out a team batting average of .31 1 with 53 home runs. Junior shortstop Tim Dulin hit a whopping .380 with 10 home runs, the second highest total to Sigler ' s 1 3 round trippers. Sigler knocked out a .331 average and a team-leading 45 RBI and nine game-winning hits. Junior Shane Young bounded back after an off year in his sophomore campaign to post impressive numbers — a .370 average with nine home runs and 35 RBI. Young, who stands 6-4 and 230-pounds, is a first baseman designated hitter, but worked during the fall as a pitcher for the ' 84 season. Steve Gaither Head coach Bobby Kilpatrick offers a few words of sage advice to first baseman Shane Young as he comes up to bat against Alabama. The Tigers took the game 10-2. Young, a junior majoring in physical education, was named a designated hitter for the NCAA Eastern Regional All-Tournament team.

It ' s time to play a game of Guess Who? about a certain Memphis State University baseball coach. Are you ready for the clues? Here we go... First clue: He took over the MSU baseball program in 1972. Second clue: He has never had a losing season in over a decade at MSU. Third clue: He has earned himself a reputation as one of the most successful coaches in both the south and the nation. Enough clues? Well just in case you ' re not as familar with Memphis State baseball as you should be, the answer is Coach Bobby Kilpatrick. After stepping up to bat for the baseball program, Kilpatrick trans- formed 1971 ' s 11-29 squad into the 19-14 unit of 1972. Fortunately for MSU baseball fans, the transformation has never stopped. The Tiger ' s 33-12 record at the close of the 1983 season brought Kilpatrick ' s career record to a 373-156 mark. Talk about the Midas Touch! His first great team is thought to be his 1978 squad which led the NCAA in hitting, took the Metro Conference crown, and advanced to the NCAA regionals, just missing the World Series of college base ball. Because of the achievements of his Tigers, Kilpatrick was named the NCAA South Region Coach of the Year. Then again, in 1981, Kilpatrick headed up another unit which made a showing in NCAA regional play. The 1981 team completed the season with a 48-11-1 rec ord, the best in Memphis State history. They won their first 1 1 games and 2 1 of 22, for the best start ever in MSU history. Coach Kilpatrick has an impressive baseball background himself. He is a graduate of Central High School in Mem- phis, where he was an all-city selection as a center fielder for three years. In 1958, he took his team to the Tennessee State Championship and was named to the All- State team. After high school, he attended the University of Mississippi after signing a baseball grant-in-aid. Moving infield to become a second baseman, he helped Ole Miss take the 1959 and 1960 Southeastern Conference championships. After graduating from Ole Miss, Kil- patrick was drafted by the Chicago White Sox. During his four years in the White Sox organization he received the award for the Top Minor League Player in May of 1962. Upon returning to Memphis, Kilpatrick was hired as the baseball coach at Treadwell High School. Later he moved to Catholic High School as both a football and baseball coach. He returned to coach at his alma mater. Central High School, in 1967, where he was twice named Memphis High School Coach of the Year before finally moving to Memphis State.

It ' s times for a conference as head coach Dana Kirk steps in to consult with Andre Turner (10) and Baskerville Holmes (43). Tiger Basketball 1 35 Tigers Rank As One of the Best Probably one of the most exciting and quotable coaches in the Metro conference is Memphis State head coach Dana Kirk. Before arriving at Memphis State, Kirk held tenure with the Louisville Cardinals as an assistant coach from 1971 until 1976. He also served as the Tampa and Virginia Commonwealth mentor before joining the Tigers. When Kirk arrived here, the basketball program was on a decline but with his inside-outside approach, recruiting within the Memphis area first, the Tigers showed improvement over the next two years, even if the record didn ' t. Kirk and his staff of Larry Finch and Lee Fowler recruited Mid-Southerners Keith Lee, Bobby Parks and Memphians Andre Turner and Phillip Doom Haynes. The staff added St. Louis native Derrick Phillips. The 13-14 records his first two years kept improveng and these new, better records took the squad to the sweet 16 to face Wake Forest, Villanova, George- town and Houston over the next two seasons. But, Houston ' s depth was the final undoing of the Tigers ' 1982-83 hopes. So, Kirk and his staff plucked Memphis natives William Bedford, John Wilfong, Dewayne Bailey and Chicagoan Larry Bush from the recruiting pie. Recruiting went so well Bailey was red- shirted so he wouldn ' t lose a year of eligibility for the following season. Kirk, who won his 200th career game early in the 1983-84 season, lends his name to many charities in the city thus improving MSU ' s image in the com- munity. In addition to Kirk ' s busy chores at MSU and his charity work, the Tiger coach has two different radio shows, has a television playback show and also guests on early-morning programs. When Kirk arrived, besides using his inside-outside approach, he started a three-phase program. Kirk first strove to revitalize the sagging fortunes of Tiger basketball. I wanted to rebuild a program that was down, win the Metro title and compete for the national championship, Kirk said. The 1983 December schedule included UCLA and Iowa; the first time the Tigers had played such tough competition early in a season. The Tigers lost both games and dropped to the low reaches of the polls. But, MSU soon returned to the upper echelons of the Top Ten. Kirk doesn ' t care about polls until late February. He ' s fond of saying, I ' d rather win in March than in December. The last two years and the probabilities of returning to the NCAA competition prove him right.

But, 1984 brought better tidings and back into good graces with the pull services. After four straight games against little opposition, the Tigers were humbled by Bob Bord and the Mississippi State Bull- dogs. The Bulldogs used a slow-down approach for a one-point decision. The bumpy road continued with a 1-1 week in mid December. A win against Ole Miss preceded a 14-point loss to the Bruins of UCLA. The Bruins improved their career mark to 3-0 against Memphis State. Whether it was the aura of former coach John Wooden or the play of Kinny Fields and company, UCLA embarrassed the Tigers, 65-51, at Pauley Pavilion and in front of national cameras. Iowa soundly thrashed the Big Blue, 73-66, when head coach Dana Kirk finally showed his frustration by echoeing a statement by the cartoon character Popeye. I ' ve taken all that I can and I can ' t take no more. He also vowed to stop harrassing the referees after each 1 38 Sports game. The statements set off a blaze under the Tigers who opened the 1984 year with a 6-0 overall record and a 5-0 slate in the Metro by defeating Cincinnati, Southern Mississippi, South Carolina and twice shellacking Tulane. Individuals on their own made news for the Tigers. Dwayne Bailey was red shirted and Larry Bush was indefinitely suspended from the team after facing rape charges.

Memphis State started with an opening victory in the first game of the MS U Lady Tiger Classic. Then, the team fell on hard times by losing their next three games. They were all close battles, though. After two convincing victories against foes from Mississippi, a five game losing streak left the team puzzled. Four of the five losses were by five points or less, including three at the Miami Masonic Classic. The team returned home ready to redeem themselves — and did they ever! Beginning with a conference victory over Southern Mississippi (96-77), the Lady Tigers eagerly reached for the .500 mark again. After defeating Mississippi State by 14 points, the team faced a rough road. Two road conference battles proved to be welcome sights as they posted their sixth and seventh wins against Virginia Tech and Florida State. Nationally ranked Ole Miss blocked their attempt to obtain an even record. Battling shot for shot with the talented Lady Rebels, MSU fell five points short of victory (66-61). Even though the loss was not a good sign, holding top ten ranked Ole Miss to such a slender advantage and allowing them to escape only after a fierce struggle was reason for optimism. With a record of 7-9, the team had to tfavel again — this time to Oral Roberts University. Another close game gave the squad confidence to face more conference play in February. The result was more pleasant this time, as the Lady Tigers squeaked by ORU (66-65). Regina Street led the team with a 19.8 scoring average while also pulling down nearly 10 rebounds per game. Cathy Williams added 14.5 points a game to help a balanced attack that included two other double figure scorers. Senior Wanda Simpson teamed with Street inside and grabbed over 9 rebounds per contest while registering 13 blocked shots. Vera Webb added 12.4 points from her forward spot and also played excellent defense. Outside, Williams and freshman guard Ruth Ann Forsythe combined for 145 assists and 58 steals. — Ethan Porter REGINA STREET, No. 50, the Lady Tigers ' 6-4 center, slows Creightons Lady Jays with a shot against four defenders under the board. 6-1 Center Pam Seymore, No. 40, a junior, puts up a fingertip shot from the floor against four Lady Jay defenders. Lady Tiger Basketball 1 41 Johns and Lady Tigers -A Winning Combination Memphis State has one of the best women ' s basketball coaches in the college ranks, but few seem to realize that fact. Coach Mary Lou Johns seems to fit into the Rodney Dangerfield category of gaining no respect. Entering her 13th season as leader of the Lady Tigers, Johns record stands at 264-113, the fifth best winning percentage in women ' s collegiate basketaball. Since arrivingat MSU, Johns has guided the Tigers to 1 1 winning seasons, including four in which the teams were na- tionally ranked. During the summer, Johns coaches a pair of Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) teams and conducts a basketball camp for girls. Her AAU teams have been quite successful. In fact, the 1982 squad qualified for the nationals. While a student at Memphis State, Johns competed in basketball, volleyball and badminton. During her early tenure at the Lady Tigers ' helm, she also taught women ' s tennis. Johns graduated from MSU in 1964, and she became the Memphis State head coach after compilinga record of 48-5 while coaching at Hillcrest High School. Johns ' many NCAA wins have all been satisfying , but two games during the 1983-84 campaign may have been the sweetest victories of them all Foes Louisville and Louisiana Tech. had been stumbling blocks for the Tigers for the last few years, but an early-season confronta- tion with the Cardinals saw Memphis State on the winning side of a 77-75 battle, and a Feb. 1 1 meeting with the Lady Techsters ended with a victor- ious 72-69 outcome. Louisville had knocked the Tigers out of the Metro championship picture twice during the last three post-season tourneys. And, before the Lady Tigers ' victory. La. Tech had been the number one ranked team in the nation. Recognized as one of the country ' s top coaches, Johns is one of only 65 coaches allowed to vote in Mel Greenberg ' s National Women ' s Basketball Poll. Johns is married and has two children: Jay and Jimbo. — Mark Hayden 3 Donna Murphy, Asst. Coach Diane Jones Lee, Part Time Asst. Kathy Nelson, Manager Joy Jensen, Asst. Manager Marty Hobdy, Asst.

Memphis State ' s volleyball team learned that being away from home can be a frightening experience, as they posted a 15-18 record this season. At home the Lady tigers were unde- feated (9-0) which may give coach Diane Hale good reason to want more games played in the fieldhouse in 1984. With six players finishing their final season at Memphis State, the future looks uncer- tain. Yet with returning players Lori Jones (most serving aces), and spectacular freshmen Angie Glaub, Peggy Rule and Mia Stephens, the outlook is optomistic. Glaub, who led the team in blocking Kim Fraser keeps her eye on the ball as she prepares to deliver a forceful serve. Holly Buford springs upward for a powerful return at the net as Drenda Roberts readies herself for any needed assistance. assists (114), is considered a strong, aggressive hitter. Rule saved an incredible 343 shots with diving digs, while Stephens has proved her ability as a setter in only one season by collecting 614assists, nearly half of the team total. Since volleyball is truly a team sport, the Lady Tigers will have to work even harder together in order to replace the talent lost to graduation. Possibly the most painful loss will be that of Holly Buford. Buford led the team in nearly every attacking category and also in solo blocks. An all-Metro selection for three years, Buford was described by Coach Hale as the most devastating hitter on the squad. One statistic probably best sums up the frustration that came from playing well, but just not good enough for a winning record. That statistic was the team ' s game record (63-62). Five times the Lady Tigers lost five game matches. Also, they lost, three times on the road to teams that were beaten at the fieldhouse (Ole Miss twice, Arkansas State). With an improving record and signs of a bright future, the volleyball squad should look forward to the 1984 season. And if they can learn from some of the mistakes that were made thes year, the Lady Tigers should have a winning campaign and compete strongly for the Metro Confrence title. — Ethan Porter r Sandy Gardner (Asst. Coach) Lisa Knox (Manager) V. Carol Grigg (Statistician) Holly Buford 1 44 Lady Tigers Volleyball Head Coach Diane Hale Any successful team can attribute the majority of its accomplishments to the talent that makes up the squad; but usually their potential would not be reached with- out a fine coach. Diane Hale is a coach who has brought excellence to Memphis State through her volleyb all teams. Coach Hale has compiled a record of 159-1 14sincearrivingat Memphis State in 1978, after coaching at the University of Tennessee and Iowa State University. Considered one of the top coaches in the nation, Hale is a member member of the board of directors in the United States Volleyball Association ' s Delta Region. Locally, she directs the Junior Olympic Development program. A Knoxville native. Hale received her bachelor ' s and master ' s degrees at UT. While an undergraduate, she played four years of volleyball and competed in the nationals during her freshman and junior seasons. Hale has worked hard at recruiting the best players from around the country to assure a winning tradition; but in doing so, she has made certain that her team performs as well off the court as they do on. With intelligent players such as Terri Clarke and Peggy Rule, the university can look directly to the volleyball squad for a true example of the student-athlete.

The Lady Tiger tennis squad finished the fall season with a disappointing 3-12 record, yet the team did exibit signs of promise. Jennifer Jones proved her great ability by posting an excellent match record of 10-5 against very stiff competition. She also had a winning doubles percentage to aid the Lady Tiger cause. Rose Grasso won eight matches, while Robyn Stern and Sara Phillips contributed several more victories. Through the early stages of the year, the team performed quite well, including a win against Illinois State. The next four matches were against opponents from Louisiana. The Lady Tigers found out that folks in Bayou country can serve and volley as well as anyone around. The team ' s other victories came in show-downs with Middle Tennessee State and Birmingham Southern. The squad ' s record did not reflect the effort put forth, and Coach Peterson helped them to realize that if they keep trying hard, their fortunes will improve. i£L N No Blues for ' Miss Pete ' v Coach Peterson Women ' s tennis coach Charlotte Peterson completed the fall season of her ninth year at Memphis State with an attitude that not every coach can attain. Although her team had a slow start during the fall campaign, Peterson keeps spirits high with her use of psychology. She is quite knowledgeable in sports psycho- logy. In fact, her article Psychological Aspects of Coaching Tennis was published in a national tennis guidebook. A native Memphiananda 1972 graduate of MSU, Miss Pete , as she is affec- tionately called, was a member of the Lady Tigers tennis team for three years. After graduating, Peterson served as an assistant tennis coach while earning her master ' s degree in physical education. In the late 1970s, Coach Peterson was state and regionally ranked in doubles competition, but has since chosen to devote more of her time to coaching the Lady Tigers. She now serves on the NCAA Division 1 Championship Tennis Committee. -Ethan Porter r Rose Grasso Sharlyn Hamilton Jennifer Jones Laura Liltiard Sara Phillips Robyn Stern 146 Sports Men ' s Tennis Results MSI! beat Ole Miss MSU beat Alabama-Birmingham MSU beat Louisiana Tech Ark-Little Rock beat MSU MSU beat Oral Roberts MSU beat Southern Mississippi MSU beat Principia Murray State beat MSU MSU beat Alabama-Birmingham MSU beat U.T.

The Tigers were benefited by strong doubles per- formances and six players with 10 or more singles victories to their credit. The team opened the year with six convincing victories in their first seven matches. The lone loss came at the hands of a strong Arkansas-Little Rock squad. Fol- lowing a bitter defeat against Murray State, MSU put everything together to win five straight matches. Their set record during that stretch was an astounding 36- 7. The Tigers final victory for the year was a 7-2 win against Illinois State. Led by Tiger Buford (coach Buford ' s son), Grant Denton, David Nicholson and Jerry Gray, the team ' s singles play was out- standing. However, their doubles play proved to be their strongest suit. Team members Buford, Julio Martins and Greg Long posted outstanding doubles records. But, not to be far outdone, every other member of the squad also finished with a winning season record. — Ethan Porter Bill Conley Eduardo Eche Jefi Gray Peter Lebedevs Greg Long Julio Martins Jerry McGuffee David Nicholson Tommy Buford Head coach Tommy Buford has been a big influence on local tennis for many years. As coach of the Memphis State men ' s tennis team, Buford has guided the Tigers to five Metro Conference titles. In the community, he is even more well- known for directing the U.S. Indoor Championships at the Racquet Club. Buford graduated from Southwestern at Memphis in 1957, where he won the Tennessee Intercollegiate Championship. After pursuing a graduate degree from Mississippi College and serving as tennis professional at River Hill in Jackson, Buford was offered the positions of head coach at MSU and pro at the University Club. Since his arrival at MSU in 1966, his teams have nearly 300 wins to their credit. Buford has brought a winning tradition to a program that he admits had to be started nearly from scratch. During that time, the team has flourished. In fact, from 1976-80 the Tigers reigned as Metro champions. Having duties at both Memphis State and the Racquet Club to contend with, it might seem that Coach Buford has little time to keep his game sharp. Yet, in 1981 he teamed with his son, Tiger, to win the National Father and Son Claycourt Championships. And in 1980, he was ranked first in the state for the Men ' s 45- under division. -Ethan Porter Sports 147 Handball, Racquet ball . . . Fast-Paced A ction When many sports enthusiasts are asked to describe the game of handball, most are left nearly speechless and comment It ' s racquetball without the racquet...! think. In actuality, handball preceded the game of racquetball, and contrary to popular belief, is often a faster-paced sport. So, is handball a sport that stands in the shadow of its fanatically popular offspring? The Memphis State handball squad doesn ' t think so and has posted many impressive victories to prove its point. Youth again prevailed for a Tiger squad, as the handball team faired quite well with only one senior. However, that one player will most assuredly be missed. Doug Pope ' s improvement in two years of competition has lead him to become a major asset to the team. Steve Stapleton claimed another national title for Memphis State, placing first in the Intercollegiate B Singles Division. Sophomore Pete Brown teamed with Stapleton to form one of the most devastating doubles teams in the nation. Brown ' s dedication to the game of handball, coupled with his natural ability, has given Coach Mazzone the right to call Brown a very strong national contender. Power is the name of Shawn Massey ' s game. He hits the ball as hard as anyone can and he uses that intimidating style to keep extremely close to the team ' s top ranking. Two first year players, James Shine and Tim Whitehorn, give the team great balance in the C division. Their progress in only one season has helped enhance the team ' s success in both singles and doubles. Coach Mazzone Coaching, competing, officiating, direct- ing and instructing ...Charles Mazzone has performed every duty that could be thought of for his sport — handball. But apparently that ' s not enough to keep him busy, becuase he is quite active with Memphis State and the community in other areas, too. After graduating from Kingsbury High School, Mazzone entered MSU, where he earned his bachelor ' s and master ' s degrees. While doing his graduate work in 197 1 , he became assistant handball coach with the MSU Extramural Program. He attained his current status of head handball coach in 1977. Mazzone has contributed greatly to local handball and racquetball tournaments while also participating in them. He has served as the director for the Memphis State-Jack Gillespie Handball Tournament as well as assisting in the direction of the MSU-Union Planters Racquetball Classic. In addition, Mazzone is the Southeast Intercollegiate Commissioner for the United States Handball Association, and is a member of several local, regional and national sports organizations. Not only has the coach kept a strong interest in four-wall indoor sports, but he also teaches many activity classes such as aquatics, tennis and badminton. He also works closely with the American Red Cross teaching first aid and safety. Mazzone and his wife Sally have two children: Mark, 10, and Holly, 6.

Not too many institutions can boast about forming a dynasty in an athletic competition, but Memphis State ' s racquet- ball squad deservedly ranks as one. Although a team championship cannot be accomplished without a group effort, the racquetball players individually showed their prowess. With a variety of personalities that combine to make up the squad, a calming factor must keep tempers down and spirits high. That is the job of the team captain. Senior Jed Cowell occupies the un- enviable position of captain. His success is due mainly to his ability to earn the respect of his teammates with his patient attitude. On the court, Cowell gives a total effort — hustling, diving, digging for every shot hit by his opponent. If experience can truly help an athlete to progress in his particular sport, then, by the time Andy Roberts is a senior at MSU, a new category of racquetball player may have to be instituted. Roberts, a freshman from Memphis, already has won several prestigious championships, including the Newbern Invitational, which matches the 14 top amateurs in the nation. Roberts also has second place finishes in the 1983 Junior Nationals and Leach Nationals to his credit. With power and pinpoint precision forming his style, Roberts intimidates nearly everyone he plays. Sophomore Jim Jeffers has had to suffer as the team ' s second ranked player. Winner of the 1094 Jackson Open, Jeffers probably would have won seveal more tournament finals, but Roberts saw to it that he settled for runner-up. Jeffers prefers the backhand to put points away, but he certainy has a complete game. Graduating players Brian Sheldon and Richard Smith have brought strength to the squad in different areas. Sheldon is one of the country ' s best doubles competitors with fabulous court coverage. Smith, conversely, chooses to earn his points more quickly with hard, low drive serves. Racquetball is not a sport that can be labeled exclusively for men. The Lady Tigers have made certain of that. Coach Larry Liles ' female squad is very young, with only one player in her third year of college, yet the team members have already proved themselves to be extremely competitive. Kathy Gluvna, the veteran of the team, is the current American Amateur Racquetball Association ' s national intercol- legiate champion. She played with the United States World Games team in Costa Rica during the fall. Using a forceful backhand and a dominating style, Gluvna forces opponents to play her game, which has enabled her to reach the status of number two on the team. Holding down the number one spot is freshman Toni Bevelock. According to Liles, Bevelock ' s ability to place shots while on the run is comparable to that of any female racquetball professional. She reigns as the current mixed doubles national champion, while also capturing several individual tournament crowns. The lone sophomore on the team is Krista Fox, who has established herself mainly as an accomplished doubles player. She lives up to her name as she moves ' quick as a fox ' and seems always to surprise her foes by positioning herself where they least expect her to be. The remaining three competitors are all freshmen. Teresa Beresford, Kim Cooling and Ann H igginbotham all work very hard and show great promise. With a little more experience, this trio may occupy the top three spots on the Lady Tiger ' s squad. Coach Liles If there could be a racquetball capital of the world, it would be safe to say that Memphis might merit that distinction. With dozens of racquetball facilities throughout the area, it is apparent that the sport is enjoyed by most of the Mid-South. Could there possibly be a little inspiration behind the incredible growth of the sport? Many feel that this honor belongs to Larry Liles. Liles, a graduate of Memphis State, has gained the majority of his recognition from the fact that his men ' s squads have won seven national championships in the sport. He has worked to make his team a dominant force in the game by bringing in players who can successfully hold down individual national titles as well as be powerful team members. Liles ' women ' s squads have also placed very high in national competition over the years. This year, two of his players. Toni Bevelock and Kathy Gluvna, reign as national title holders in mixed doubles and singles respectively. Also, Liles performs as well as those he coaches. He has held several city, state, and regional titles and won the National Racquet- ball Doubles Championship in 1981.

The team ' s performance was fair before the Metro indoor, in which they earned five track titles and four runner-up spots. Only a lack of field event competitors stopped them from capturing the team title. Tyjuan Cowan was voted MVP for the meet. The following week at Murfreesboro, Tenn., Victor Lacey and Colin Hume qualified for the NCAA Indoor Championships. Lacey posted the season ' s best time for the 440-yard run (47.44), while Hume broke a school record, becoming the first Tiger in history to run the mile in under four minutes with a time of 3:59.58. At the NCAA Championships held in Pontiac, Mich., Hume reached the mile run finals, where he placed seventh. The outdoor season was injury plagued. The Tigers ' top four sprinters were all sidelined during the season with leg injuries; however, there were some individual highlights. William Singleton had four 800-meter runs under 1:49.00, including a victory at the prestigious Dogwood Relays. Also, Hume placed 10th in the NCAA Championships in Houston while running in the 1500- meter cometition. The 1983 cross country season saw some outstanding efforts from British imports David Topham and Colin Hume. Topham showed fine early season form in winning a five-mile invitational in Cape Girardeau, Mo. He followed that by clocking a personal best in a similar event in Little Rock one week later. Hume then took full advantage of Topham ' s absence due to injury by posting his first win at the Ole Miss Invitational in Oxford. Hume went on to win the Metro Conference title, and he also placed sixth in the NCAA regionals. The fine performance at the regionals qualified him for the finals where he finished in the middle of a very strong international field. The season saw the emergence of two promising freshmen — Gary York and Chris Horton. The combination of these two and the British pair should push the Tigers into a challenging position for next year ' s Metro Conference title.

After graduating from Southwestern at Memphis in 1962, Hays began his career at the school as an assistant track coach. After one year there, he left to become the head coach of cross country and track at Battle Ground Academy in Nashville. In 1970, Hays arrived at MSU, following successful stints at Valparaiso (Ind.) Uni- versity and Virginia Tech. While at Memphis State, Coach Hays has produced national champions such as Terron Wright and Ed Hammonds, and he has led the Tigers to the Metro Conference Championship in cross country. — Ethan Porter HI On Track 151 Linksters A im for the Flag. . . Shane Marvelli shows concentration, sinking a short putt. Lynn Parkes ' Lady Tiger golfers over- came a slow start to post three top ten finishes in fall competition. Improvement is definitely evident from the team ' s 1982 fall performance. With senior Kathy Vendetti lowering her stroke average each semester, Parkes looked to her for team leadership. Gaining four top ten finishes in five tourneys this fall, Vendetti has accomplished nearly every goal within her reach. Renee Schafer and Margaret Shaffer played in every match, finishing with respec- table scoring averages in the low 80 ' s. Since both are undergraduates, their steady pro gress will be heavily counted upon in the future. Half of Renee ' s rounds were at or below 80, and she had her best finish (20th place) at the Carrier Tournament in Memphis. Margaret also had a 20th place finish. Hers came in during a 36 hole match in Kentucky when she shot rounds of 78 and 80. Combining with the four other regulars and transfer student Molly Baney, the future looks bright for the Lady Tigers. II the team continues its rapid progress, the spring should be a very pleasant farewell for Vendetti and welcome experience for the returning golfers. —Ethan Porter Head Coach Lynn Parks Lynn Parkes entered her eighth year at the helm of the Lady Tigers golf program this fall giving her players what she has provided since starting as a graduate assistant. She gave them support and a great teacher of the game of golf. After graduating from the University of Alabama in 1 973, Parkes returned to her home state of Tennessee to coach high school golf in Lawrenceburg. She then arrived at Memphis State, seeking a master ' s degree in physical education, and also to bring women ' s golf to the university. A member of the Ladies Professional Golf Association, Parkes is an area adviser for the National Golf Foun- dation. Using her excellent teaching ability, she has taken her knowledge of the game further than MSU. She has set up instructional clinics and provided lessons in Memphis, throughout the state, and in other parts of the nation.

The team placed first in the opening tourney at Murry State, defeating ten teams by shooting consistently. J. J. Fashimpaur ' s final round 71 earned him second place individual honors for the 54 hole tournament. Also capturing fourth and fifth place in individual competition were Cude and team captain Bobby Dick respectively. The victory gave them con- fidence going into the LSU National Tournament. Although the Tigers shot a much lower score than in their first win, all the team could manage was a 10th place finish. Facing 14 teams, the Tigers score of 883 was 36 shots off the pace. Cude had a three day total of 218, which was good enough for 21st place. Possibly the most encouraging news came from sophomore Paul Hollahan who had carded previous rounds of 80 and 83. He finished with a sparkling 71. The third tournament was the local Hillman Robbins Invitational. Eighteen teams competed and MSU finished fifth. Cude was again team medalist, ending up ninth overall. Since the event was held in town, 1 1 team members were able to participate. This gave Coach Cook a chance to survey all of his talent, and gave some of the younger players valuable experience. With two players finishing in the top ten, the Tigers ended the fall season on a high note by placing ninth at the Dixie Intercollegiate Tournament. Dick shot a blistering 67, which propelled him to 10th position after the three day event which drew 24 teams. —Ethan Porter Head Coach Jim Cook In 12 years of coaching golf at Memphis State, Jim Cook is proud of his teams ' accomplishments. Winning the Metro Con ference title and only once finishing lower than runner up since the Tigers joined the league, he has every reason to be ecstatic. Seeing some of his players win individual titles is quite rewarding. But Coach Cook feels that the trophies and recognition do not begin to compare with his players ' contributions off the the course. The value of the sport means more than what my players are doing now, Cook said. They will make their mark throughout the community later. That ' s what is important, he added. A graduate of MSU in 1968, Cook jokes about the responsibilities he faces as coach, but confesses that he loves his position. I ' m a recruiter, father figure, travel coordinator, scheduler, cajoler and, on occasion, a beggar. Honored as Metro Coach of the Year, Cook feels he owes most of his success to his players and the university. Since we have been given the opportunity to represent Memphis State, every player will do so, or he won ' t play. That ' s my philosophy! We have to realize that golf is only a game, and that there are millions of other things that should be thought of first, he stresses. If we don ' t take ourselves or the game seriously, we will be successful. Watching 86 percent of his players graduate and enter the serious part of life as successful citizens makes Cook realize that he has done a good job. He wants to remain at Memphis State as long as he knows he is doing his job well. He expects to be here for a long time. —Ethan Porter t n f z h Donnie Cude Bobby Dick J.J.

Despite playing one of the toughest schedules in the country, the soccer Tigers finished the year at 11-9, their first winning season. The 1 1 victories included triumphs over Ole Miss, Tennessee and two wins over arch-rival Southwestern at Memphis. Bermel ' s squad also played an exhi- bition game against the Memphis Americans m idway through the season. They had good attendance at the match and raised plenty of money for the team scholorship fund. One of the standouts on the ' 83 team was captain Didier Aur. The only senior on the team, Didier gave the Tigers a potent attack as well as leadership on and off the field. His greatest honor this season was being named as a draft choice by the Americans. Larry Creson, Pat Johnson, E. J. Gilley and Mike Muller also had great per- formances in ' 83 and will be back to lead the Tigers next season.

Bermel came to the United States from Arnhem, Netherlands in 1964, arriving in Memphis two years later. For 13 years he has been extremely active in Memphis youth soccer, sharing the talent that allowed him to play inter- nationally as a midfielder. Bermel brought soccer to the university in 1977 as a club sport and worked very hard to establish it on the varsity level. Heading a team that finished with a mark of 7-11-2 in its initial campaign, Bermel used local high school talent to attain success. Aside from Memphis State, he has helped the soccer program at Southwestern at Memphis for the last eight years. Bermel has been involved with soccer since the age of eight, con- tributing not only as a referee. He has served as president of Memphis Adult Amateur League, as well. — Ethan Porter David Jackson Pat Johnson Mike Kauker Michael Mueller Matt Pettinger Ricky Pugh Edward Smithwick Bobby Wiabel Bobby Wiabel Won Yun Sports 1 55 Tiger Tumblers Always Land On Their Feet Katsutoshi Katsu Kanzaki has complet- ed his fourth season as the Memphis State men ' s gymnastics coach, but it looks to be his final year. The reason is certainly not due to his coaching ability or the in- effectiveness of his squad. In fact, Kanzaki is one of the most highly respected coaches in the country, and the team ' s record during his tenure has been quite impressive. The very controversial explanation for the extinction of the entire gymnastics program (including the women ' s team) is one of support. According to President Thomas Carpenter and Athletic Director Charles Cavagnaro, gymnastics does not fit into the growth of Memphis State ' s athletic package, therefore Kanzaki ' s job as head coach is no longer necessary. But that did not stop him from putting up a courageous fight. Kanzaki is a very dedicated man when the subject is gymnastics. Before arriving at MSU, Kanzaki spent 12 years coaching at the Memphis School of Gymnastics, producing many gymnasts that competed at the national level. During his competitive days he was a member of the Japanese national team. He performed quite well, placing in the top 10 in the individual all-around competition in the 1963 World University Games. In addition, he was an alternate for the 1964 Olympic Games held in Tokyo. While attending Northeast Louisiana State University where he received his master ' s degree, Kanzaki reigned as United States National Champion. In 19 67, he was presented the Diamond Award signify- ing the Gymnast of the Year. With a true balance of power, Lance Sherley displays a firm hold on the rings. Terry Bryson has been a very busy woman since she started the women ' s gymnastics program at Memphis State. Although she has taken time out to care for her two children and has contributed greatly to the progress of gymnastics throughout the country, Bryson has not lost her incen- tive to keep the Lady Tigers among the nation ' s best gymnasts. During her years at MSU, Coach Bryson, a native Tennesseean, has sent her teams to the national championships and even to Venezuela to help conduct clinics. Bryson started the women ' s gymnastics program at the University of Alabama and also served both as a judge and as a board of directiors member for the United States Gymnastics Federation. Last summer Coach Bryson received possibly her greatest honor for the effort she has put forth. She was selected to work with the Sports Operation Division at the United States Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Recruiting fine talent each year and showing constant progress toward national prominence have made the sport of wo- men ' s gymnastics an important part of this university. r Tigers Gymnasts Coach Katsu Kanzaki Ralph Barron David Brosig Jon Conrad Mark England Neal Nelson Ronald Ross Lance Sherley Chuck Terrell Brian Walker John Zeringue 1 56 Sports Light on her feet, Nancy Ammann demonstrates a lively, precise movement from her beam routine. With a combination of talent that gave coach Terry Bryson great optomism for 1983, the Lady Tiger gymnasts posted a respectable 3-4 record against extremely stiff competition. The squad was sparked by consistent team scores and individual efforts that included three new school records. Against Jacksonville (Ala.) State, the women broke the record for team scoring by collecting 170.95 points. In each of the last four meets, the team has tallied at least 165 points; and even when the squad was not victorious, they were always within contention. Individually, everyone was nearly equal in every event, with four members averaging between 33.75 and 34 points in overall competition. Junior Roberta Rahija tied the all-around school record by earning 34.5 points during one meet. On the balance beam, freshman Mary Bird earned a spot in the Memphis State record books along with sophomore Leslie Phillips who excelled at the floor excercise. Maureen Hall led the team in all-around and balance beam events during her first season. After finally fully recovering from sophomore vear back surgery, senior Nancy Ammann continued to show her strength in the vaulting competition by leading the team in that event. Facing a heavy schedule that includes national powers Missouri, LSU and Penn State, the road to victory looks bumpy. Yet, with the consistent improvement shown, the Lady Tigers ' future looks bright. Leslie Phillips exhibits the fluid grace which enabled her to dazzle judges and set a new school record of 9.5 in floor exercise.

Chesterton For those of us who did not know Rex Dockery, Chris Faros, Charles Greenhill or Glenn Jones personally, that tragic day when a plane crash took their lives is probably little more than a blur. Now, when their names are mentioned or we are somehow reminded of that day, there are vague memories filled with regret and sorrow over lives cut too short. They fade away, but not before showing us how much they are still missed. If you want to look at these four men in the cold, impersonal terms of prominence, naturally Coach Dockery was the most well-known. Just about everyone on cam- pus (as well as the many fans off-campus) knew him personally, knew something about him or at least knew who he was. 1 But you cannot use cold, impersonal terms for a man who was anything but cold and impersonal. What cold, impersonal man would have stuck with a team which was constantly torn apart by sports critics and was positively dwarfed in the face of an outstanding, nationally-acclaimed basket- ball team? Coach Dockery brought the Tigers through two seasons with stats almost painful to recall, yet kept his spirit and drive, always ready to fight for and with his team. Then, in the fall of 1983, the puzzle pieces fell into place. Although many people would say a 6-4-1 record is no great achievement, it was simply a promise of things to come. The Tigers were moving up. But I don ' t think Coach Dockery was really surprised. When you read the quote above and think about him and his team, you realize his something around the corner was the foresight of all the Tigers could be. In his eyes, the Tigers were just on a side street, looking for the right road. Thanks, Coach, for leading us around the right corner. We just wish you could have traveled with us a little farther — Sondra Lewis 1 60 Dedication Dedication 1 61 Winning Season Puts the Roar back into The 1983 football season was a big step for Memphis State. After succesive 1-10 seasons, the Tigers put some ferociousness back into their roar. We ' ve accomplished one of our season goals, said Tiger quarterback Danny Sparkman, who earned this year ' s starting assignment from Trell Hooper and Page Belongy. The thing I remember most is our first win over Ole Miss, our archrival. MEMPHIS STATE 37, OLE MISS 17 (Liberty Bowl) — This win meant the most to Tiger fans, since they had up short against Ole Miss for the past three years. NORTH CAROLINA 24, MEMPHIS STATE 10 (Chapel Hill, N.C.)— The highly-touted Tar Heels got all they could handle from a scrappy bunch of Tigers. North Carolina jumped to 10-0 before MSU stormed back to tie the Tar Heels by intermission. The Tigers drove 80 yards in 1 2 plays for a Sparkman to Smokey Jordan touchdown pass from six yards out. A Tar Heel fumble gave the Tigers possession at the Carolina 1 2 but MSU had to settle for a 28-yard Don Glosson field goal. VIRGINIA TECH 17, MEMPHIS STATE 10 (Liberty Bowl)— Virginia Tech ' s defense had a real nasty reputation, and the Tigers agreed after a disappointing loss. It was a game marked by missed scoring opportunities and inconsistency on offense. Tiger scores came with a dazzling 73-yard pass from Sparkman to Jordan and a 26-yard field goal by Glosson. ALABAMA44, MEMPHIS STATE 13 (Tuscaloosa) — The Tigers learned a good first half does not a game make. MSU charged to a 10-3 halftime lead before 60,000 stunned fans. Glosson kicked a first-quarter field goal and tight end Ricky Sparkman made a falling catch on a four- yard pass from cousin Danny to start Tiger fans thinking upset of the century. The Tide ' s lone score was a 42-yard field goal. The second half, however, was all Alabama, and MSU fans wondered who kidnapped the Tiger team that played the first half. Save a 48-yard field goal by Glosson, The Crimson Tide drowned the Tigers with a 21 -point third quarter and a 20-point fourth quarter. MEMPHIS STATE 28, TULANE 25 (Liberty Bowl) — Tulane quarterback Jon English probably wished he had not gotton a court-order to allow him to take on the Tigers. MSU ' s secondary came up with four interceptions. After Tulane jumped to a 3-0 lead, Rozell Clayton took a screen pass from Sparkman and raced down the sideline 41 yards for a 7-3 lead. Again Tulane jumped ahead with two third-quarter touchdowns before Enis Jackson made his first college reception, a 71-yard TD pass from Sparkman. Defensive back Donnie Elder intercepted an English pass and returned it 13yards for another touchdown and a 21- 17 Tiger lead. Jackson was not through, hooking up with Sparkman for an 18-yard touchdown pass and a 28-17 lead. Tulane scored another touchdown and moved to within three, 28-25, after a two- point conversion and the Green Wave mounted its final effort with time running out. English threw into the end zone but Percy Nabors, who had two interceptions on the night, tipped the ball and freshman Clay Bitner made the interception to preserve a 28-25 victory. SOUTHERN MISSISSIPPI 27, MEMPHIS STATE 20 (Liberty Bowl)— Heavily favored Southern Miss blew to a 27-0 lead in the fourth quarter before David Alford, Wide Receiver Rob Arthur, Defensive Back Irving Duke Atkins, Fullback Clyde Avant, Flanker Ken Balkunass, Offensive Guard Harold Beane, Defensive Tackle John Beard, Wide Receiver Nathan Beason, Defensive End Eric Becton, Running Back Page Belongy, Quarterback Clay Bittner, Defensive Back Dwight Blalock, Tight End David Booth, Defensive End Dennis Borcky, Defensive Tackle Chip Bowers, Rover Glenn Boyd, Fullback Andy Bramlett, Linebacker Don Bramlett, Defensive End David Brandon, Tight End Eric Brooks, Quarterback Ken Brown, Running Back Eric Caldwell, Wide Receiver Greg Capshaw, Fullback Bevin Carpenter, Linebacker 162 Football the Tigers Memphis State started what could have been called the greatest comeback of all time. With fans streaming for the exits, freshman Jerry Harris returned a kick off 98 yards and gave MSU life. Less than two minutes later, Sparkman hit Eric Becton with a 12-yard TD pass. With 3:27 left, the Tigers capped another drive when Spark- man hooked up with James ' Punkin ' Williams on a six-yard touchdown pass. MSU ' s last-ditch effort to score with 1:26 left fell short and US M held on for a 27-20 win. MEMPHIS STATE 24, VANDERBILT 7 (Nashville) — After an off week, the Tigers took to the road for three games and got off to a good start. Glosson ' s 32-yard field goal and Dwight Blalock ' s stumbling catch gave Msu a 10-7 lead after one quarter. Vanderbilt was not to score again, but the Tigers got insurance as Williams ran over defenders for a 20-yard touchdown run and Jeff Womack ran all over the field shedding tacklers before being credited with a nine-yard TD jaunt.

What important event occured on De- cember 17, 1980? Well if you have kept up to date on your Tiger Football History, you would know that December 17, 1980, was the day that Rex Dockery was named head football coach at Memphis State University and Tiger football has been looking up ever since. Dockery, raised in Cleveland, Tenn., graduated from Bradley County High School and signed with the University of Tennessee where he lettered two consecutive years as an offensive line- man. He began his coaching career in 1966 as head coach at Harriman High School. In 1968 he moved to Morristown East High School where he led his team to a two-year record of 19-2 and finally to capture the 1969 Tennessee State AAA Championship. After four years as a high school coach, Dockery became an assistant coach at the University of Tennessee under Bill Battle for the 1970 and 1971 seasons. In 1972 he moved to Georgia Tech as the offensive line coach. From there, Dockery moved to Vanderbilt University as offensive coordinator, where he remained for two years. When Vanderbilt head coach Steve Sloan moved to Texas Tech, Dockery also joined the Red Raiders as offensive coordinator. In 1978, Dockery moved into the head coaching position at Texas Tech when Sloan left to become the coach at Ole Miss. In his first season, he led his team to a 7-4 record and was named the Southwest Conference and NCAA District VI Coach of the Year. His overall record at Texas Tech was 15-16-2. Although when Dockery joined the MSU coaching staff, he began with a young and unseasoned football team, the final 1-10-0 record was deceiving. There were close competitions with Mississippi State, Virginia Tech, Florida State and Ole Miss, in addition to the victory over Georgia Tech. Dockery confronted a difficult season in 1982, complete with a tough schedule and devastating injuries. Again the Tigers finished with a 1 - 1 0-0 record, the single victory being a 12-0 shutout over Arkansas State University. However, the Tigers suceeded in building a repu- tation as a persisitant, hard-working and hard-hitting outfit that could look forward to greater things. It was that reputation and the Tigers ' spirit and optimism that carried over into the 1983 season, thanks to coach Dockery and our great Tiger football team. — Sondra Lewis Darrell Nelson, Tight End Doug Nettles, Defensive Back Jack Oliver, Offensive Guard Mike Omar, Center Ralph Patton, Linebacker Leroy Prout, Linebacker Johnnie Robinson, Tight End Randy Samples, Defensive Back Greg Sanders, Defensive Back David Schmidt, Offensive Tackle Geddes Self, Offensive Tackle George Skouteris, Linebacker Danny Sparkman, Quarterback Ricky Sparkman, Tight End Anthony Strong, Linebacker Jim Thomas, Offensive Guard John Thompson, Offensive Guard Reginald Thompson, Defensive Back Ellis Turner, Defensive End Jeff Walker, Offensive Tackle Johnny Walker, Linebacker Stan Weaver, Punter Jeff White, Offensive Guard James Williams, Running Back Eric Wilson, Linebacker Jeff Womack, Running Back Joel Woods, Running Back Cedric Wright, Defensive End Photos by Photo Scrvko Football 165 Tigers 9 Roar Getting Louder... Continued from Page 163 Improved their imaginary SEC record to 3-1. The Bulldogs could muster only two first-half field goals against the Tiger defense while Williams pounded in from two yards out and Glosson booted field goals of 28 and 37 yards. The defense limited State ' s wishbone attack to a touch- down in the second half. MSU, however, exploded again as Derrick Crawford hauled in a 50-yard bomb and a three- yarder from Sparkman before Glosson booted a 21 -yard field goal. MEMPHIS STATE 43, CINCINNATI 10 (Cincinnati, Ohio) — This was the wild one! After both teams had lack-luster first halves, the Tigers struggled to a 13- 10 lead in the fourth quarter. MSU scored on Womack ' s 43 yard run and Glosson ' s field goals of 38 and 45 yards before the scoring barrage. Sparkman was hobbled by an ankle injury and Page Belongy took the controls. Becton took a Belongy pitch and ran 54 yards for a touchdown at the 4:37 mark. Ten seconds later, after a fumbled kick off was recovered by Curt Crain, Womack scam- pered in from nine yards out. A minute and ten seconds later, defensive end Tim Harris blocked a punt attempt into the end zone for a safety. Charles Greenhill returned the free kick 69 yards for another touchdown and the final tally came with 39 seconds remaining when Belongy scored from eight yards out after Nabors returned an interception 24 yards. ARKANSAS STATE 14, MEMPHIS STATE 14 (Liberty Bowl)— What was supposed to have been a party for MSU ' s last home game, turned out to be a bust. The fired-up Indians man-handled the sluggish Tigers and were it not for an 83-yard touchdown bomb, Sparkman to Crawford, and Nabors ' 77-yard intercep- tion return, the Tigers would not have escaped a loss against the team that provided the previous year ' s lone win. Indian quarterback Tim Langford ran the triple-option to near perfection and showed he could pass as he threw a 60- yard TD pass over three Tiger defenders. MEMPHISSTATE 45, LOUISVILLE 7 (Louisville, KY.) — The Tigers feasted on Cardinal for their Thanksgiving dinner with a 45-7 thrashing of Louisville in the season finale to give Memphis State ' s football its first winning season since 1977. The Tigers ended the season with a 6-4-1 mark on the strength of 28 second- half points. MSU jumped toa 17-7 lead at the intermission and never looked back. Glosson ' s 32-yard field goal gave MSU a 3-0 lead but Louisville bounced back with seven points in the second quarter before the Tigers marched 66 yards in 12 plays. The drive was capped by Woods ' two-yard dive. MSU scored again when Williams broke several tackles at the line of scrimmage and bulled 63 yards before the half ended. The icy conditions didn ' t stop the Ti- gers. Womack scored from 14 yards out and Williams scored his second TD on a 17-yard run and the Tigers led 31-7. Womack finished with 140 yards rushing while Williams totaled 121. MSU gained 392 yards on the ground and 39 through the air. Belongy came on to relieve Sparkman at quarterback and completed his first touchdown pass as a collegian, a 23 yard strike to Avant. MSU ' s final score came when linebacker Crain picked off a pass and returned it 74 yards for a touchdown and a 45-7 win. —Steve Gaither r «5 -G o Lou Alford, Administrative Aid Murry Armstrong, Dorm Superviser Michael Joe Cannon, Student Assistant Marvin Chatman, Student Assistant Stan Eggen, Tight Ends Chris Faros, Offensive Coordinator James Fox, Wide Receivers Roy Gregory, Defensive Line Keith Hackett, Graduate Assistant Vince Hoch, Secondary Jim Hueber, Offensive Line Dean Lotz, Strength Coach Rusty Russell, Defensive Ends Jimmy Sharpe, Running Backs Chip Wisdom, Defensive Coordinator 1 66 Football Danny Sparkman, sophomore quarterback shows his strength as the Tiger line smashes ahead in the season game against Virginia Tech.

Some people would have you believe it is ivy-covered buildings built by world-famous architects, or spacious campuses with park- like grounds rolling over the countryside. Others rate them by tuition fees, so much per pound. For some, the measure of worth is longevity — traditions built by generations of the same families who attend the school with unquestioning regularity. We at Memphis State recognize all those virtues. But we think we know the one ingredient which makes a University truly great. It ' s people. We want to show you some people who care. They care a lot about what happens on this bustling urban campus. Buildings and traditions are great, and we know ours will come as we age. Right now, we like the young can-do spirit which makes everything seem possible. For us, it ' s the here, the now, the living and sharing with people who care which makes this place and this time BETTER THAN EVER.

Ferguson, Mary Gill, Robert Who Is That Masked Mascot? Photo by J. Scott Vanzandt Although they seldom appear in public at the same time, Kevin Vaughan and Thomas Roehm enjoy the second looks they inspire when they are together. Patrolling the sidelines at Memphis State University basketball games this year is a tall, orange tiger named Pouncer. Inside that tiger suit, two Memphis State students split time going through routines. They are Kevin Vaughan, a senior engineer- ing major from Bolivar, Tenn., and Thomas Roehm, a junior engineering major from Clarksville, Tenn. Vaughan is a veteran of the Pouncer suit, having been inside it the past three years. The three years that I have been doing the routines have probably been the most fun a college student could have, Vaughan said. Being Pouncer has been a way for me to put humor into the games Memphis State plays, but there is also a serious side of it for me, Roehm said. The serious side of Pouncer has allowed me to meet various businessmen and local celebrities (in the Memphis area), which I hope will help provide me a business contact when I graduate, Roehm said. My first year as mascot, I travelled with the football team to Atlanta for the game with Georgia Tech. All was going well for the team and me that day until the last few minutes of the game. With about three minutes left, I noticed a bunch of Georgia Tech ' s fraternity pledges running from the stands at me, trying to rip off my tail and anything else they could grab from the suit. If it weren ' t for my brother Richard who helped chase them off, I would have lost my suit and my job, Vaughan said. The good times as Pouncer however, have been far greater than the bad, and with this, the first year for scholarships, they are continu- ing to get better. Ranking first on Pouncer ' s list of thrills was the basketball team ' s trip to New York City last season. Everybody has his own opinion of what the city is like, but it was 100 percent better than anything I expect- ed, Roehm said. It was a first class trip all the way, with the highlight of the trip being our lunch at Tavern in the Green in Central Park. The only words to really describe the experience is unbelievable. The reputation for class surpassed any expectations, Vaughan said. Although playing the role of Pouncer is a time consuming job, Vaughan and Roehm are also involved in many other Memphis State University activities. Vaughan is a presidential scholar on the Dean ' s list, a member of the Ambassador Board, a brother in the Kappa Alpha fraternity and a member of the Mortar Board. Roehm is a member of the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity and works at the Mem- phis State University athletic ticket office. —Brian Rosenberg 170 Graduates Hill, Randall Hoffman, Lenora Hughes, Steven L.

You will also notice the constant noise from these pastimes. But there is one person in the arcade who truly should not go unnoticed — Johnny Barnes. At first glance behind the counter of the Side Pocket ' s service desk, on Monday, Wednesday or Friday, you will see a person you had better be polite to. That ' s Johnny. Pho, ° by J s v,n nd « Standing six feet tall and weighing slightly more than 300 pounds, Barnes may seem dangerous until you get to know him. I get to know just about everybody who walks through that door, one way or another, Barnes said. If the student causes no problems and damages nothing, I ' m nice to him. But if someone causes trouble, I won ' t hesitate to let them know. Sir, he says quietly. A young man quickly stops leaning on a pool table. One word is all Johnny had to say. Barnes points out that there are rarely any pro- blems, and, in fact, most people are just looking for something to do instead of going to class. We have our biggest crowds on Friday, because most everyone skips then, he said. A customer finishes his games of pool and approaches the desk. Number seven, the customer mumbles. Johnny walks back to the board filled with ID ' s, and pulls off the student ' s card. That will be $500, Barnes jokes. He then realizes that the student is not amused. Oh, sorry. I guess I read it wrong. You only owe $1.60. Barnes ' humor is mostly directed toward the regular customers who stand around the desk, talking about anything that comes to mind. One student told Barnes that an employee of the Side Pocket had made $60 giving change. You ' ve got about as much sense as a dead squirrel, Barnes yells. How can anyone make money giving change? The student just stood there. Barnes does not simply sit around and talk. He must constantly check for damaged equipment and serve the many customers who enter the arcade. Occasionally, a strange incident may occur that makes Barnes ' day more difficult. Those guys over there have problems, he said. The other day they were playing pool with a friend who got hit in the head with the cue ball. I had to take the guy over to the Health Center. When he is not too busy, John usually relaxes and lights up either his pipe or a cigar, despite customer complaints. They call these cigars aromatic! And what do they call Johnny? Wonderful, he said. —Ethan Porter Johnny Barnes is always around The Side Pocket when students need assistance.

' Cookie Caper ' Inspired Grandma ' s Return to School Her first story, The Cookie Caper, sold to a children ' s magazine for $40, gave Laverne Daley the boost she needed to start out on a caper of her own. It made her think seriously about writing as a career, and eventually to enroll as a full time student at Memphis State. The story was written simply to enter- tain her two small children but friends convinced Daley she should try to get it published. Daley said the story ' s quick sale made her try other writing projects. But, some of the projects turned out to be almost more than she could handle. That ' s when she decided to get some training. I had several stories published — then people started asking me to do writing I felt I couldn ' t handle, like public relations type stories. I didn ' t feel I knew enough about it. Coming back to school was not an easy step for her, adding the responsi- bility of a full course load to raising a family. But she ' s learned to deal with it. You ' d be surprised what you can let go. You learn to do the important things and let the non-essentials go, she said. Daley said her husband and their two teenagers still living at home have been very supportive — even when she has to ignore them to study for a math test. But the dual role hasn ' t slowed Daley down too much. She ' s been active on campus, is a past-president of the Society of Professional Journalists and is still very active in the organization. College can be a lot more fun if you don ' t have other commitments, Daley said. I envy those who don ' t — they can get involved with so much — there ' s a lot going on out there (at Memphis State). Daley has had several stories publish- ed in local magazines and journalism trade journals. She completed an intern- ship at Mid South Business and was a writer for two years in Memphis State ' s media relations department. She ' s still not sure what will happen after graduation, but she plans to stick with writing as a career, either in news writing or public relations. I ' m not really locked into any type of writing. I wouldn ' t mind working for a trade journal. Whatever happens, Daley says she is glad she decided to return to school. I ' ve met a lot of fantastic people, students and teachers. —Rebecca Babineaux Photo hy J. Scott Vinundt Underclassmen 181 Undergraduates Amminger, Sylvia Fr.

Undergraduates 187 ■ ■■■;; : ;- Life ' s All New to Foreign Students Facing a new language, a new setting and a new lifestyle, foreign students have to be very special. They must adapt to the push and shove atmosphere and still concentrate on the demanding academics that brought most of them to America. Most of the students have found the transition bearable and some- times surprisingly pleasant. 1 came, I saw, and I was conquered! exclaimed Max Hajiomer during a friendly gathering amidst the sounds of soul and reggae music. Hajiomer, a senior from Malaysia majoring in civil engineering, said that he was conquered by the friendliness he found throughout the country. Before I got here I thought everybody was like Archie Bunker, he said. Abdollah Pierow-Salehi, a graduate student from Iran who is seeking a second degree in City and Regional Planning, said that he loved this country. You can go where you want and buy what you want. Not every student feels quite at home in America, though. The pressures and problems of fitting in make some students wonder if the better education that can be received is really worth the hassles they face. Engineering major Ibrahim Khairuddin from Malaysia has found America to be just like he saw in the movies. He did point out, though, that he has adapted easily. Likewise, Jim Sigh, a native Kenyan, sees America as a strange country. It ' s a fast country, he said. Singh also added that Africans are friendlier. Dean Arthur Holman, the advisor of Foreign Student Affairs, works closely with the International Student Associa- tion. It is another method of having a political, economical and social view of the world besides that of our television and newspapers, he said. Holman feels that working with foreign students is quite rewarding. Ruth Turner Foreign students prove that music is a universal language. These foreign students joke about their experiences at Memphis State. 188 Undergraduates Undergraduates Dickenson, James Jr. Dickerson, Martha Fr. Dickerson, William Ft. Dickey, Karen So.

After receiving her bachelor of science degree in biology this May, Hales, the first female ever to fill the post, will be commissioned as a 2nd lieutenant in the U.S. Army. She has already received her branch assignment and will become an officer in the Signal Corps — the group which is responsible for co- mmunications in the army. At the end of her sophomore year at MSU, Hales decided to investigate the ROTC program ,and she decided that it would be a good opportunity for her. She applied for and won an ROTC scholarship which covers her tuition, her lab fees and a fixed rate book allowance in addition to a $100 per month paycheck. Hales has completed both Basic and Advanced ROTC camps over her last two summers and has moved up through the ranks from squad member to an assistant in administration training supply NCO to company commander. As company commander, Hales is the ranking cadet officer and is responsible for all third and fourth year cadets ' training. She was assigned to the position of company commander by the ten cadre members, the Regular Army officers stationed at MSU to oversee the ROTC program here. Their decision was based upon her grades, her personal abilities, h er scores at ROTC Advanced Camp and her projected future potential. Although 75 percent of the cadets in the ROTC program are male, Hales said that all the cadets work together with mutual respect. Sometimes the guys give me a hard time, but it ' s more teasing than anything else, she said. I respect them, and they respect me. Hales, who graduated from high school a year early, will be only 20 years old when she receives her commission as an officer in the army. Being involved in the ROTC program has helped me learn a lot of things I ' m capable of doing that I might not have thought of before, she concluded. Photo by J.

The junior, who prepped at Memphis Central High School, is MSU ' s only female varsity men ' s trainer. Trainer, you say? Green reports to the Kennedy Complex at 1 p.m. every day and is among the last to leave about 7 p.m. Her daily duties include applying ankle tape or other pro- tective wraps to soccer players and making juice for the football and soccer teams. But that ' s only the beginning. I sometimes go over to football practice, and if it is busy, I begin taping some of them, said Green. After all the taping is out of the way, she watches over practice in case an emergency occurs. We are there in case someone needs to be iced, or if someone needs help for a pulled muscle, she explained. Green also assists in treatments, planned programs for players with injured ' Just One of the Boys ' muscles or broken bones. Green goes to all home football games and some of the away matches. However, soccer is her main sport. She watches over the soccer team most afternoons. Her job on the field is to provide water or towel off players as they march to the sidelines. This summer Green worked with ath- letes in rehabilitation, mainly those coming off operations in the spring. Despite her non-stop schedule, Green enjoys her lifestyle. I enjoy working with the players, she said. There is something new going on every day. The limitations of being a female trainer in male-dominated sports is a question Green is often asked. I do everything except go into the locker rooms, she said. Besides the obvious limitations, Green is out there giving her best. I hope to be doing this next year, too, said Green. It will give me experience that will help me in the future. —Nancy Bailey Undergraduates 201 Undergraduates Patterson, Pam S. So. Patterson, Rebecca Fr. Payne, Jerald So.

Nightown Makes Night Life Pay Off Two Memphis State students drew up the blueprints tor a nightclub in the Memphis State area and saw their plans come to fruition eight months later. It their business continues at the current feverish pitch, they should be there for a long, long time. Both students wanted to have fun and show a little profit at the same time. They ' ve done it, thus far with Jeffrey ' s Nightown — formerly London Transport. We wanted to build a place that was classy and had good entertainment, 21- year-old Chuck Bolton, a senior in inter- national business, said. Bolton is the club ' s main investor. The junior partner in the deal is 20- year-old Michael Deering. Another MSU student -- Christopher Folk a junior majoring in hotel management, helped Bolton to design the club. Bolton and Deering became friends after being introduced by a mutual friend during their spring vacation in Destin, Fla. The three were involved in a car accident but the MSU students escaped unharmed. That was the first time I had met Chuck, Deering said. Deering runs the entertainment side of Nightown. Bolton came to the entertainment field after trying his hand at selling insurance. The money was good but I got bored having to wear a coat and tie every day. By the spring we will have the largest patio restaurant in Memphis, Folk said. He also has plans to buy the other half of the club, owned by Bolton ' s father. The three Memphis State students had a rough time getting financial backing for the project. Bolton contributed half the money he received by selling his insurance company, and a silent partner chipped in the rest in September. The silent partner, though, sold his half to Bolton ' s father later in the year. After the financial backing went through, the trio began renovating the club, which also housed Yesterdays, at one time. We wanted to do and oversee the work ourselves, so for about three weeks 1 slept on the floor, said Bolton. Folk manages the restaurant section of the club. It ' s called Jeffrey ' s after the friend who introduced the two. Folk should manage the restaurant well - his parents own Folks ' Folly. Bolton has little experience running a restaurant or a nightclub, though. So, he surrounded himself with experts from the field. Fat Schrider is the key to the business, Bolton said of the main chef. Bob Beni e, owner of Destin ' s original Nightown, aids Bolton in finding concert promoters. Nightown ' s performers have ranged from the Drifters to the Producers. Bolton adds that the club will showcase comedians three times a week, along with rock and rhythm and blues groups. So far, Jelfrey ' s Nightown has been attracting good-si ed audiences. With a little more luck, it could begin attracting crowds from outside the Memphis State area. — Maria Acchiardo 208 Undergraduates - Undergraduates Turner, Dariene Fr. Turner, Elizabeth Louise Fr.

Undergraduates 21 Professor Heeds Call of the Nile Ancient Memphis beckoned and Dr. John DeMott, journalism professor at Memphis State, heeded the call which took him from the Mississippi to the Nile. Dr. DeMott returned to Memphis in August after a year as visiting professor at the American University in Cairo, near the site of the older Memphis. For him, journalism bridged the gap between the two cities, allowing him time to work and study in a dynamic city of the Arab world, and the chance to research both ancient and modern Arabic life. I taught graduate and undergraduate journalism courses and did research, Dr, DeMott said. But one study I did had nothing to do with journalism — it was a study of religion in ancient Memphis, which, along with Pharaonic history, is one of my special interests. Other DeMott research did pertain to journalism — a study of the Islamic press code of ethics, another on women in Egyptian media and another dealing with the representation of the scribe — the penman who, among the ancient Jews, was teacher, interpreter and copyist of Jewish scripture and law. Dr. DeMott also studied the Middle East News Agency, which serves the Egyptian government and which also reports, in French and Arabic, worldwide news to the Arabic world and Arabic news to the outside world. Along with his students, Dr. DeMott researched the English language Egyptian Gazette, founded by the British 103 years ago. The Gazette is a fascinating news- paper, changing now into a very modern paper mostly for Americans in Cairo, Dr. DeMott said. For years it was mainly for British colonials, filled with British news and cricket game results. Now it reports American football. Dr. DeMott ' s students at the American University were mainly Egyptian, al- though there were also students from other Arab countries and from other parts of Africa, from France, Indonesia, Latin America and the U.S. What is the main difference between those students and MSU students? In Egypt, all graduates are guaranteed jobs following graduation, Dr. DeMott said. The government provides full employ- ment. As mementos of his sabbatical year in Egypt, Dr. DeMott brought back with him an assortment of miniature scimitars — those short, single-edged, curved-bladed sabers which conjure up visions of long- ago battles between Arabs and Turks. — Laverne Daley Yatsula, Kathleen A.

Brown, 21, is the first winner Memphis State has had for the $2,050 internship, open only to juniors and seniors in jour- nalism programs accredited by the Ac- crediting Council on Education in Jour- nalism and Mass Communication (ACEJMC). Brown ' s internship was in the Wash- ington office of Sen. Slade Gorton, Re- publican from the State of Washington. During the February-to-April term of the appointment, Brown worked as a member of Sen. Gorton ' s staff in a variety of tasks designed to familiarize him with the functions of a legislative office. In addition to the work with Sen. Gorton, Brown participated in an academic en- richment program organized by Louis Kohlmeier, director of the National Center for Business and Economics Communic- ation at the American University and a Pulitzer-Prize winning Washington corres- pondent while with the Wall Street Journal. Brown is working toward a second major in political science and has a 3.2 GPA. He has been active with the Daily Helmsman, having served as managing editor and editor for the 1982-83 academic year. He has interned with The Comercial Appeal and is a former part-time writer for the West Memphis Daily Times. A total of 35 nominations for the intern- ship was received and evaluated by the 1983 national selection committee com- posed of judges Kohlmeier; Donald Hileman, dean of the College of Com- munication at the University of Tennessee; and Gerald F. Seib of the Wall Street Journal. All costs of the program are borne by Sears, Roebuck and Co. as part of the firm ' s continuing commitment to higher education. The Sears Congressional Internship program began in 1 969 in cooperation with the journalism accrediting council. Since its inception, the program has had 299 interns serving in 274 different Congres- sional offices, 52 on the staff of Senators and 247 on the staff of members of the House of Representatives. Faculty Staff 215 216 President Carpenter Carpenters Now 4- Year Veterans The head of this compex organization called Memphis State is President Thomas G. Carpenter, now completing his fourth year in that role. Although Dr. Carpenter was raised in Winston-Salem, N.C., he attended college in Atlanta, Ga., his birthplace. He left Georgia State to serve in the U.S. Navy from 1944-46, and when he married a Memphis native, Oneida Pruette, moved here to complete his undergraduate degree in business at Memphis State. He went on to earn his masters in economics at Baylor University and his doctorate in economics at the University of Florida. From 1965 to 1980 he remained at the University of North Florida, first as business manager, then vice president for academic affairs, and finally president, the post he held until coming full circle back to Memphis State. An earnest booster for the University, Dr. Carpenter feels that even the campus community has to be reminded of its own quality. As for the city, when he became president in the summer of 1980, he found that many citizens still thought of Memphis State as they remembered its teacher college days. This is one of two comprehensive universities in the state, he reminds anyone who will listen. People come on campus and say what wonderful facilities we have, but unless they come here they don ' t know about it. That was one of his first priorities when he took over the reins as president: making the state, the city and the campus itself aware of the high quality, and the even higher potential he envisioned. Dr. and Mrs. Thomas G. Carpenter are marking their fourth year as Memphis State ' s President and First Lady. It was a homecoming for Mrs. Carpenter, who is a Memphis native. ii air ' « s I President Carpenter 217 President Shows Pride in University Admitting that there are still a few problems to be solved, Dr. Carpenter cites financial cutbacks and parking as two of the major ones. The state of the economy has hurt all campuses, he believes. Here, he notes that many organizations had prob- lems maintaining membership when so many students couldn ' t afford to participate or had to work just to stay in school. He is concerned with that lack of participation because he believes extra-curricular acti- vities play a major role in college life for the individual student and the university. The University will continue to make concerted efforts to see that this aspect of campus life will develop more fully, he says. Dr. Carpenter continues to support a strong athletic program, believing this is one of the many ways the University impresses its image upon the country. He believes that the positive image of Memphis State athletes has encouraged many to explore other programs at the University and has helped determine its growth. Carpenter, who believes in an open- door policy realizes he can ' t possibily talk to each of the 22,000 students, but I will see as many as I can, he says. l v 9HIISi i MSU ' s President Thomas Carpenter gets a lesson in computer technology from Tandy Corporation ' s Sid Agent (standing). The company presented the computer to the University in September. Looking mighty happy as they receive their J. Wayne Johnson Scholarship Awards are Melisha Hendrick, Jo Ann Longfield, Jean Bolton and Allen Dawson. President Carpenter presented the awards which are given annually by the Alumni Association and the Ambassador Board. 218 President Carpenter WmBM Miss MSU, Sharon Russell, gets a congratulatory kiss from President Carpenter after her election. Grace Barger, President of Gamma Beta Phi, and other members of the honor society present Dr. Carpenter with an honorary membership. President Carpenter 219 Though he enjoyed his college years, Dr. R. Eugene Smith, vice president for business and finance, says he is glad he doesn ' t have to compete with today ' s students. They are more sophisticated today and have a broader educational background, he believes. Working and studying kept him too busy for many activities, but the Lebanon, Tenn. native says it was still a lot of fun. He received his bachelor ' s degree from Middle Tennessee State College in 1957 and went to work for the State of Tennessee as an auditor. He had moved up to the post of director before leaving government for Memphis State University, where he became auditor and budget director in 1963. He received his master ' s degree here in 1966 and his doctorate from the University of Mississippi in 1979. Dr. Smith also teaches a graduate course in finance at MSU and is a member of numerous professional organizations and committees. He is married to the former Anne Clement of Paris, Tenn., and they have three children: David, 16; Daiel, 9 and Genie Anne, 13. — Ruth Turner Dr. Oliphant, w ho was born in Taylor, Miss., had spent a childhood of moving from state to state, wherever his father ' s job with Tenneco took them. After graduating from a Pennsylvania high school, he decided it was time to return home. While a student, he was a member of the Society for the Advancement of Management; Alpha Kappa Psi, a business fraternity; Beta Gamma Sigma, and the Baptist Student Union. After receiving his bachelor of business administration in 1963, he went on to obtain his master ' s degree from Memphis State in 1964. In 1969 he received his doctorate from Mississippi State University. He then taught finance and economics and was a research assistant in the Manpower Center at Mississippi State. Later he became a professor of management in the Fogelman College of Business. Dr. Oliphant calls his 1975 trip to Japan a high point in his career. Representing Memphis State and speaking at the MSU sister institution, Chuo Gakuin University in Tokyo, was an experience he says he will never forget. He still stays in touch with some members of the Japanese university faculty. Dr. Oliphant and his wife, Carolyn, have one daughter, Renee, now 15. — Ruth Turner 220 Administration Vice Presidents Sports played a big part in the life of Dr. Donald K. Carson, vice president of student services. I think there ' s real value in athletics if it ' s not overdone, the one-time defensive back says. It provided me with a college education! Still an avid sports fan, Dr. Carson reminisced about his college life at the University of Kentucky which, in addition to the football team, also included serving as chairman of the Judicial Board and membership in Student Government and Sigma Chi fraternity. When he graduated in 1962, Dr. Carson went on to attend William Andrew Patterson School of Diplomacy, receiving his doctorate degree in 1966. Those years brought him more than a degree, however, for while a graduate student, he married his high school sweetheart, Felicia Shoemaker, of Oneida, Tenn. After completing his graduate work, Dr. Carson taught at Kentucky Southern College, now a part of Louisville University, and then at Georgetown College. He became dean of students at Marshall University in Huntington, W. Va., where he re- mained until coming to Memphis State as associate vice president for student affairs in 1974. The Carsons have three children: sons Chris, 16 and Todd, 14 and a daughter Molly,9. —Ruth Turner Dr. Jerry Boone, vice president for academic affairs, needs all his skills in psychology to keep that busy office running smoothly. It was the Veteran ' s Administration Hospital which first drew Dr. Boone to Memphis, and his next move was to the Memphis Speech and Hearing Center. While working there as a psychologist, he began teaching part time at Memphis State, and the attachment grew. His clinical psychology and administration have a lot in common, Dr. Boone maintains saying, You meet a lot of interesting people in both places; sometimes it ' s hard to tell the difference! I did everything you are supposed to do in high school, he claims. Then he went on to the University of Mississippi where he received a bachelor ' s degree in both speech and English. He sang with a quartet and was also on the debating team and says he enjoyed those college years enormously. Unor- ganized fun is the best kind, he says. He then went to the University of Florida and received his master ' s degree in speech pathology and psychology. He taught speech pathology for the next five years before returning to school, this time, Vanderbilt University. After he completed his doctorate, Memphis beckoned. Dr. Boone and his wife, Doris, have five children ranging in age from 8 to 31. —Ruth Turner Administration 221 ACADEMIC DEANS Dr. John H. Wakely, Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, is a firm believer in the value of education. I believe it is necessary to be educated, no matter what you want to do, he said. He believes even more specifically that a Liberal Arts education can best serve to enhance one ' s life, and has lived that belief by spending much of his own life obtaining it. Dean Wakely, a native of Mansfield, Ohio, started on his personal education road at the College of Wooster in Ohio, majoring in psychology. To finance that education, he worked at odd jobs which included being a shoe salesman, grocery store clerk and stevadore. He received his bachelor ' s degree in 1954 and then entered the armed forces where he served until 1956. Upon returning to the United States, he entered North Carolina State where he received a master of science degree. He then went on to Michigan State University for his doctorate. His first job after graduating was with Corning Glassware in Corning, N. Y. It was not long until he returned to his real love, education. After teaching at several universities, he came to Memphis State in 1980, becoming Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. — Ruth Turner Dr. M.E. Bond, Dean of the Fogelman College of Business since 1979, was first interested in a career in economics, but changed his mind. It was a change he has never regretted. During the 1950s and 60s, he worked at odd jobs to pay his way through college — The University of Iowa — where this native of Bloomfield County, Iowa obtained his degree in business administration. While teaching some banking courses in Minnesota he discovered a new love. I found that I really enjoyed teaching, he said. So back to Iowa he went to attend graduate school. He later began teaching at college level and has continued that career for 20 years. 222 Administration Dr. Nicholas L. White, Dean of the Cecil C. Humphreys School of Law, believes that most of his goals in life have been fulfilled. Things have fallen in place pretty well, he muses. Dr. White, a native of Ohio, said that his first goal was to go into his family ' s business, which he did after receiving a degree in business and economics. After several years the field of law began to interest him more and more, so he began law school in Cincinnatti. I looked upon the law as a real opportunity to do some interesting and challenging work for the rest of my life, he said. After graduating from law school, he became a partner in a national law firm. But after 14 years, he decided he would really like to teach the subject he knew best. In addition, teaching has given him the freedom to pursue other matters pertaining to law, he said, adding that while he was in private practice, he did not have that kind of freedom. Dr. White will be retiring as dean at the end of this year, but plans to continue teaching and doing research. He has served as dean for seven years. —Ruth Turner Dr. Richard Ranta, Dean of the College of Communication and Fine Arts is the only dean that young college has had. He actually helped to create the college, which combines music, art, journalism and theatre and speech and became its dean in 1977. It ' s a happy combination for the dean who, in his college years, won a Best Actor Award and worked on local radio and television stations to pay his tuition. He came to Memphis State in 1972 as a professor in the communication department. The Minnesota native holds the reputa- tion as campus workaholic , and with his many interests and activities probably does need more than 24 hours in his day. In addition to his Memphis State respon- sibilities, he is a force in the Grammy Awards, chairman of the Memphis and Shelby County Music Commission, has been on the board of Memphis Ballet Ballet South and Opera Memphis, works with the W CNO Advisory Board and with Concerts International. Art an d culture do not have a monopoly on his life, however, for he is an avid sailor and tennis player. I like what I ' m doing. I like the people and the college and the city. I like to feel that what I do can make a difference, he says. Administration 223 A CADEMIC DEANS Dr. Orville E. Wheeler, dean of the Herff College of Engineering, is a pioneer from the Space Age. Wheeler, a native Memphian with an interest in architecture, attended Vanderbilt University. Since no major in architecture was offered, he chose to study civil engineering. He then attended the Uni- versity of Missouri where, in 1955, he received his masters of science in civil engineering. Between the years of 1955-59, Dr. Wheeler was a pilot and airship commander in the U.S. Navy. He was stationed at Lake Hurst, N.J. After he left the Navy, he worked for aircraft companies and the space program in Huntsville, Ala. during the early sixties. He said that during this period many people were working to put a man on the moon. It was a decade of inventing on schedule, he now says. In 1972, Dr. Wheeler went to Milwaukee to work for Bucyrus-Erie Co., a manufacturer of strip- mining equipment. He was chief structural engineer there until 1978 when he became dean of the College of Engineering at Memphis State. Since coming to Memphis State, Dr. Wheeler has been a regional officer in the American Society for Engineering Education and a director of the Engineers Club of Memphis. Ruth Turner I like teachers, I like books and 1 like students, said Dr. Ramsey Fowler, Dean of the University College. All those likes have come together to make his post the perfect job for him. Dr. Fowler, a native of Brooklyn, entered the world of higher education with a scholarship to Princeton University where he received his degree in education. Later he won a scholarship to Harvard University, where he received a master of arts degree. After graduating, he taught high school in Boston for two years and then returned to school himself. This time it was the University of Michigan, where he received his doctorate. In 1968, Dean Fowler came to Memphis State to work in the English department. During this time, he directed the sophomore and freshman English courses. He also worked in the development of a writing program and wrote the Little Brown Book. In 1980 he became Dean of the University College. 224 Administration Dr. Robert L. Saunders, Dean of the College of Education, is the senior dean on the Memphis State campus. After obtaining degrees from Auburn University, Troy Teacher ' s College, Millsaps College and Franklin and Marshall College, Saunders started to make that contribution by teaching high school students. I thought I was going to starve to death as a teacher, he said with a laugh, adding that he didn ' t have a car and had to work weekends to make ends meet. He moved up the administrative ladder, becoming a principal. People told him he was a good administrator, so after receiving his doctorate, he went into higher education administrative work. H. Joan Dodson, a native of Sparta, Tenn., says that she has never regretted going into the nursing field. I like the feeling you get when helping someone, she said. Ms. Dodson, chairman for the Department of Nursing, said that working in this field provides an opportunity to assist people through life crises. Ms. Dodson studied at the University of Tennessee where she received a B. S. degree in nursing in 1958. In 1967, she decided to get a masters degree in education so that she could teach nursing. I felt that I could help more people in this role, she said. She worked in this program until it was phased out in 1980 when the current B. S. N. Program was begun. Before joing the new B. S. N. Program, Ms. Dodson returned to the University of Tennessee Center for the Health Sciences where she received a masters degree in nursing in 1978. — Ruth Turner Dr. Dorothy A. Arata,Dean of the Graduate School, said the main thing she has wanted to do with her life is to contribute in some meaningful way. A native of New York City, Dr. Arata has spent a good part of her life learning. After attending high scool in Brooklyn, she studied chemistry at Brooklyn College, intending to become a doctor. She later received her master ' s from Cornell Uni- versity and her doctorate from the Uni- versity of Wisconsin. Administration 225 Academic Administration 1 -%. ■ aSHi f V f : Dr. J. Ralph Randolph says he hopes the University Press will stimulate scholar- ship on the Memphis State campus, re- sulting in better teachers. He has held the job as director since October, 1979, and believes that progress has already begun. As director,Dr. Randolph oversees all operations of the Press and securing manuscripts. Right now, the Press is publishing the Tennessee County History Series. A graduate of the University of Albuquerque, he was an American history major, and that sense of history is obvious in the work of the Press. What about the future? Dr. Randolph says that if revenues improve, the Press will undertake some expansion. For himself, he hopes to get on with some more writing. Dr. Randolph is married and has three children. —Ruth Turner Being born in a log house in Tipton County, Tennessee, may have been a hum- ble beginning for Dr. John Y. Eubank Jr., but MSU ' s dean of Admissions and Re- cords has come a long way since then. He now handles student admissions, re- gistration, maintenance of records and issuance of student transcripts. Dean Eubank has been at Memphis State for 23 years. He received his bachelor ' s and master ' s degrees here and earned his doctorate at the University of Tennessee in history. Dean Eubank didn ' t have much time for extra-curricular activities during his own college days. He held several part-time jobs including working in the school cafeteria and in the laundry room of his dorm. He was also a campus representative for Camel cigarettes. Dean Eubank and his wife have a son at Baylor University and a daughter in junior college. —Ruth Turner 226 Administration Never stand still and never quit learn- ing, is the advice Dr. Victor Feisal gives MSU students. Dr. Feisal himself has been learning alot in his job as associate vice president for General Academic Administration. He said his job consists of coordinating the budgets of all academic units and over- seeing the employment, tenure, promotion and salary administration of facult. Born in Missouri, Dr. Feisal has been at Memphis State for 27 years. He earned his undergraduate degree at MSU, his master ' s at the University of Houston and his Ph.D. at the University of Georgia in microbiology. He has a son at Memphis State, a daughter soon to be here and another daughter in high school. What are his plans for the future? Re- tirement, he said with a smile. —Ruth Turner Dr. John Dill saw his share of the country as he went about the business of getting an education. Now the associate vice president for academic affairs and academic programs at Memphis State University, he is a native of Washington, D.C. and did his undergraduate work at Howard Univer- sity. After receiving his bachelor of science degree, he moved on to New York City to obtain his master of arts degree from Columbia University and then to New York University for his doctorate in psychology. That preparation led him to Memphis State where in his present position he is responsible for all undergraduate aca- demic programs and curriculum. He deals with regulations and policies on all under- graduate degree requirements. He is also dean for independent academic programs which are not affiliated with any of the colleges. —Ruth Turner Administration 227 Lester J. Pourciau, director of libraries at Memphis State, has been at the University for 14 years. He has the general managerial responsibility for all university libraries with the exception of the law library. He received his bachelor of arts degree from Louisianna State University, where he majored in German, and then earned his masters degree in library science at that same university.

He has also done postgraduate work in guidance, personal services and admin- istration for higher education. During the 1970s, Dean Hampton worked as a probation officer, often serving as a counselor to juvenile delinquents. Comparing that job to his present work, he says his biggest adjustment was the change from being a counseling friend to an authority figure. I have never really been out of school since I started the first grade, says Jo Strickland, adviser to the Student Activities Council. Explaining that school has been a lifetime home for her, Ms. Strickland, a native of Clearwater, Fla., says she has been in school one way or another for a long time and has always enjoyed it. Ms. Strickland began college at Stetson University in Deland, Fla. Before receiving a bachelor ' s degree in history in 1977, she was very active on campus. She returned to Memphis State to work on a masters degree in guidance counseling. After graduating, Ms. Strickland worked at Christian Brothers College, in the admissions department.

Her position includes working with such committees as Fashion Board, special events and speakers, al l of which she says she thoroughly enjoys. Administration 229 Working with a big company was the original ambition of John Jay Anderson director of University Center. A native of Logan, Utah, Anderson attended Utah State University. He majored in business administration, following boy- hood instincts. Anderson said he pictured himself with a job in accounting. Then, he said he realized that would be a mistake. I couldn ' t sit for eight hours a day! he said. After being graduated, he was a military personnel officer for two years. When Anderson returned from service, he became program director of Utah State ' s University Center. In 1968, he accepted the directorship of MSU ' s University Center. Anderson said he found considerable satisfaction in his job. It ' s a never ending diversity of activities that keeps me in- terested, programs come and go. The real excitement is watching the developement of a student, he said. Anderson is firm in his beliefs about the importance of outside activities. He said, The right amount of extracurricular activities is advantageous to any individual. STUDENT EDUCATIONAL SERVICE Adviser for Greek Affairs, Ms. Mindy Sopher, has made college life her career. I wanted to be a continual student and a continual educator, she said. A native of Grove City, Penn., she started college majoring in political science at Wittenberg University in Springfield, Ohio. As an undergraduate, she was president of Kappa Delta sorority and the Residence Hall councel. She also helped write the school ' s mission statement which created a safe and healthy campus. Though her main interest was politics, she was greatly influenced by college life- styles. She said she believes in living up to the vows of her sorority. Later, she attended Bowling Green State University. She received a Master of Arts in college student personnel. Then, she became involved with Greek affairs at Heidelberg College in Tiffin, Ohio. Before coming to MSU this year, she was involved with several Greek organi- zations at numerous universities. She said MSU is a very pleasant place to work because the people are warm. She said, I can tell people are very loyal to Memphis State. 230 Administration Marriage and family counseling was the primary ambition of Dr. Dewaine Rice, director of resident life at MSU. That idea slowly changed after he realized working at a university would be more interesting. There ' s something about a college campus that ' s invigorating, he said. i K- ' 1 1 1 ] %• i 1  I !

Before receiving a bachelor of science in psychology in 1971, he was married. After being graduated, Dr. Rice, a Little Rock native, taught junior high school science in West Memphis. In 1974 he entered MSU ' s graduate school. Dr. Rice worked as a graduate assistant. He said it didn ' t take long to become enthralled by the administrative aspect of the University. By 1975, Dr. Rice became assistant director of residence life. After only two years, he was promoted to director. Dr. Robert A. Marczynski, assistant dean for Student Judicial Affairs, has been involved with residence life most of his career. A native of Lansing, Mich., Dr. Marczynski is a lawyer who worked in the residence life office during his law school days at the University of Toledo in Toledo, Ohio. I tried to combine my law backgound with my higher education background, he said. And Dr. Marczynski is still combining the two in his current job which deals with student discipline. Even though he may see the bad side, Dr. Marczynski says he enjoys working on a college campus. His first enjoyment of campus life came when he attended John Karroll University, where he received a degree in economics. He earned his law degree at Toledo in 1981, and got his Tennessee law certificate in 1982. While an undergraduate, he was a member of many clubs and the recipient of many honors including being named to the National Dean ' s List. Administration 231 Student Educational Services I am not doing what I prepared to do at age 18 said Dr. Marion F. Emslie, associate dean of students at Memphis State University. Despite an interest in law, she began her under- graduate career at Boston University in English. However, Dr. Emslie was soon wooed into Public Relations and Communications. The exciting and artistic opportunities she envisioned as a writer propelled her into countless activities. She said living and learning are prere- quisites to being a good writer. After receiving a bacclaureate in Communications in 1961, Dr. Emslie successfully explored com- mercial writing. VVGBH, the prominent educational Boston television is listed as only one of Dr. Emslie ' s clients. To satisfy her need for learning, she entered Northeastern University. Pursuing a Master of Education, her area of interest was American history and diplomacy. Even with two strong degrees and solid work experience, Dr. Emslie was not satisfied. Prior to coming to Memphis State in 1977, Dr. Emslie received a Doctorate in Higher Education Ad- ministration from the University of Virginia. Dr. Emslie said she feels the variety of skills, especially writing, and experiences she accrued are a plus in all types fo careers. — Ruth Turner Having a dream is a must, according to Dean Arthur Holmon, associate dean for Minority Affairs at Memphis State. Earning a football scholarship and working at an ice house in Nashville, Holmon, a native Memphian, sought to fulfill his dream by attending Tennessee State. Though he had no ambition to go to the pros, Holmon was drafted by the Minnesota Vikings. He played one pro year, but an injury ended that possible career. Holmon returned to Tennessee State and received a degree in history. He then taught and coached in the Memphis school system for nine years. During that time he earned a Master ' s in Secondary Education from Memphis State. In the early 70s, Holmon became an assistant dean of students at MSU and worked primarily with minority students. 232 Administration The Coordinator of Academic Coun- seling at MSU, Ms. Dorothy Dodson, said she was drawn into University work. A teacher at jackson, Tenn., Junior high school, ms. Dodson heard an MSU speaker discuss academic counseling. You ' ve just described the only counseling job I ' ll give you a nickel for, she said. But Ms. Dodson ' s career started at a much earlier age. She said during her elementary school days at Alamo, Tenn., she often helped her aunt teach. She said she often was asubstitute teacher. Ms. Dodson earned a biology degree along with an elementary teacher ' s certi- ficate from Lambuth College. Immediately after her trip to the Orient, Ms. Dodson came to Memphis to teach at Hollywood Jr. High. She also enrolled in MSU ' s graduate program. With a Master ' s degree in counseling, she returned to Hollywook Jr. High. She soon became Academic Counselor at MSU. After eight years she became the Coordinator of Academic Counseling. Ms. Dodson said she continuse to be involved. That ' s just my life, she said. — Ruth Turner Ever since high school, I ' ve had a great interest in people and their potential, said Dr. Dennis Heitzmann, director of the Center for Student Development. Dr. Heitzmann, a native of Chicago, received a B.A. in psychology from Notern Illinois University in 1968. To pay his way through college he drove delivery trucks through rioting Chicago. He also worked on the loading docks. Dr. Heitzmann received an M.A. in counseling psychology from DePaul University in Chicago in 197 1 and earned his Ph.D. in counseling psychology at the University of Texas at Austin in 1974. Dr. Heitzmann moved from Texas to Memphis, originally to Southwestern University where he taught in the Psychology Department and worked as a counselor. In 1977 he came to Memphis State to direct the Center for Student Deelopment. His present duties range from monitoring the center ' s budget to counseling students.

The knowledge of psychology and the knowledge of people help me to be a better administrator, he said. —Ruth Turner Administration 233 STUDENT EDUCATIONAL SERVICES Walter S. Warren, Director of Placement Ser- vices, said that his job is to help students sell themselves to prospective employers. I believe everybody is selling a product, idea, or themselves in everything they do, he said. Warren, a native of Union City, TN, wanted a career which involved selling. He started moving toward this goal when he began attending Memphis State during the days of Win Wilfong. He graduated from MSU in 1958 with a degree in marketing. After graduating, he worked for International Harvester and Ford Motor Company in Memphis. When he came to MSU ' s Placement in 1968 to look for a job, he was hired by the placement department. While working there, he received his masters degree in marketing. In explaining the transition he made from selling products to selling people, Warren pinpointed the major difference: a product doesn ' t have a personality. Warren has had many honors, including being the president of three organizations: Tennessee College Placement Association, Southern College Placement Association and the College Placement Council.

STUDENT EDUCATIONAL SERVICES Working with students tends to make me feel young, said Teresa Loser, adviser for New Student Orientation and Religious Affairs. A love of working with students steared Ms. Loser, a Muncie, Ind. resident, into education. She said she wanted to do more in life than teach, though. Recalling college life in the mid 1970 ' s, she said those days were the best memories of her life. Greek life was my main background, I wouldn ' t be here today if 1 hadn ' t been in a sorority, she said. Ms. Loser was a member of the Indiana University Student Foundation and Sigma Kappa sorority. I got more out of school because of outside activities, she said. She said she believed the extracurricular involvement during college is as important as the academic aspects. Her Bachelor of Science Degree in Education in hand, Ms. Loser began traveling as a field con- sultant. Soon, however, she enrolled at Kent Uni- versity graduate school. Prior to receiving a Masters in Student Personnel Administration, she worked as an adviser to the Pan-Hellinic women ' s counsel. In 1983 Ms. Loser came to Memphis State.

Woodson Beautiful People Beauty pageants give girls a chance to show off their beauty and talent. But that is not all, Jo Strickland, program adviser for the Student Activities Council, said. The contests also provide the girls with a means to earn money to further their education. And the girls from Memphis State Uni- versity are taking advantage of the oppor- tunity. Last year, five MSU girls won local pageants to go on to Miss Tennessee. This year two girls went on to capture spots. But going on to other contests is not the main reason many of the girls get into beauty contest. Lisa Hatchett, Miss Memphis and a member of the MSU Homecoming Court said, I ' ve gained self-confidence, devel- oped my public relation skills and met a lot of people. Sharon Russeil Miss Hatchett, a senior broadcast com- munications major and the assistant manager at the campus radio station WSMS, said the hardest things she has to cope with are people ' s preconceived no- tions of Miss Memphis and the busy schedule she has now. Miss Hatchett said this has been one of the biggest years of her life. She does not plan to continue with the beauty contest, but would like to pursue her career in broadcasting. On the other end of the beauty con- testant spectrum is Sharon Russell, the reigning Miss Memphis State. This jun- ior broadcast communications major has been in beauty pagents since she was 10 years old. Over the years she has accumu- lated over 300 trophies and 100 crowns. Miss Russell agrees that the pageants have been beneficial because she got a chance to meet more people and she did enjoy the publicity. Janie Taylor, the Maid of Cotton, did not go on to the Miss Tennessee contest, but she said she felt excited about winning her contest. Photo bj Clayton Rted 240 People Photos by MSU Photo Services Mobile is no swinger Jane Poodry, an associate professor of design at MSU, has designed a mobile which hangs immobile in the student lounge area of the Fogelman College of Business and Economics. And she would like to see someone ' get things moving ' . The large art mobile has a mobility problem which can and should be cured, according to Poodry. It needs crosscurent fans, .she ex- plained. There ' s not enough wind to make anything rotate in there. Sometimes when a large crowd is leaving classes from dif- ferent directions, it generates enough wind to move it, but only barely, she said with a note of dismay. There is a small fan in the balcony, but Poodry recalls one of the engineers who installed the mobile remarked that he had a fan in his fireplace bigger than that one. The 800 pound mobile, which measures 1 2 feet wide and 1 8 feet long is a wonderful spectacle of color and design. For 40 years, Poodry has designed floats, costumes, pageants and theatrical sets, but said the Blue Chip mobile, as it is nomed, is h er largest work to date and she would like to continue working on a grand scale . She would still like to see Blue Chip in action. As a designer, 1 don ' t have the power to make someone get it operating; however, 1 would like to see it moving. It only needs the proper installation of ade- quate fans, she said. People 241 Features and Faces RA Loves Work Don ' t talk about a free room to resident advisers. They know that room is far from free — it ' s hard-earned, every square inch of it. But first year resident adviser Kathy Fields says that the friendships she has formed have made the work well worth the effort. Kathy works the Mynders Hall desk for five hours each week, and has enjoyed getting to know everyone in the dorm. I applied for the job because 1 think I can relate to the residents well, since we are on the same age level, she says. She does not want residents on her floor to think of her as just an RA , but also as a friend who can help with their problems. The main goal is to establish one-on-one friendships with her residents, she adds. Resident advisers, in addition to putting in five hours on the desk each week, must also take a 24 hour duty twice a week. Only class time is excepted. A new R A must also take a counseling class for one semester. Kathy, who is a 1982 graduate of Fayette Ware High School in Summerville, Tenn., is a sophomore accounting major at Memphis State.

Photo by Emily Belote The student teaching experience helps prepare teachers to handle situations that no textbook could adequately descibe. For most educators, their days of student teaching are something which they remem- ber in later years with a smile, even if they found it difficult to muster a smile at the time Sharon Martin had one such experience. While most women highly value a youth- ful appearance, Ms. Martin, an MSU secondary education major, found her babyface toto be more of an aggravation than an asset while teaching at Wooddale Junior High School. When she entered the school on her first morning, she was met disapprovingly by a group of teachers in the hall. They stopped me and asked where I was going, Martin said. After she explained to them that she was a teacher, not a student, they let her go on her way. Before Martin could make it up the stairs to her classroom, she heard the booming voice of the vice principal saying, Young lady, where are you supposed to be? Once again, she explained who she was and where she was supposed to be. Ms. Martin said she enjoyed student teaching after she finally made it from the hall into the classroom. Of course, student teachers have to deal with more weighty problems than making it down the hall without a hall pass. Sharon Sorlie, a secondary education major, encountered a situation that raised serious questions in her mind while student teaching in a special education class at Wooddale Junior High. After having an incoherent conversation with one of the students in the class, she wondered if the student were indeed re- tarded, or if he had been mistakenly clas- sified as retarded because of some emo- tional problems. Sorlie explained that it is sometimes difficult to differentiate between retardation and emotional disturbance. It is important for teachers to get to know their students and observe any possible problems which may need attention. Student teaching can be both weird and wonderful, but it is an important part of preparing MSU education majors to become competent teachers. People 243 Memories Live On Beale Imagine yourself waiting tables in a busy restaurant: taking orders, serving drinks, running food, keeping water glasses filled — the works. Now imagine that in your spare time between these duties you must hop onstage and sing a song or two before you can go back to check on your tables. As nerve-racking as it sounds, that ' s exactly what several Memphis State students do every night to earn a living. The restaurant is Memphis Memories, located at the corner of Fourth and Beale, and its distinction lies in that the waiters and waitresses entertain with their melodious talents, as well as hustle between the kitchen and the tables, to keep their customers satisfied. The search for such talented wait- persons led Otto Gross, the restaurant ' s owner, and Walter Dunn, the general manager, to Memphis State. Dr. David Russell Williams, chairman of the music department, was happy to assist them. I thought we had some people who had that talent, so I gave them a list of names, said Williams. There is a general consensus among the employees that the idea, which was inspired by a similar restaurant in Nashville — the Chattanooga Choo Choo — is a good one. 1 think the customers enjoy having the waiters and waitresses sing and that makes working here all that more enjoyable, said Ian Bourg, a graduate student majoring in opera. I could wait tables anywhere, but here I get to entertain as well as make a living. Bourg, who sings such songs as Blue Suede Shoes, Teddy Bear, and Can ' t Help Falling in Love, said that he worked in a restaurant with a similar format in Kansas City, but that the music at Memories is more oriented around Memphis. Joyce McKinney, a 19-year-old freshman said, I love working here. It ' s exciting. It ' s a challenge to get the food out hot while keeping the audience hot with my voice. Singing is my way of life, now, my income. I plan to sing later on, but as a hobby; I ' m going into interior design, said Ms. McKinney, who never before sang professionally but in every high school program I was singing a solo. Ms. McKinney sings the restaurant ' s theme song, Memories ( The Way We Were ), and others such as Inseparable , and Feel that Old Feeling . It ' s a good idea, a very good idea, said Royce Mitchell, senior. Beale Street will attract a lot of people from out of town and this is a good way to expose your talents. Mitchell, a senior majoring in Theater and Communication, said that he hopes to go to California to make my dreams come true. Meanwhile the experience I get here as a waiter will be extremely valuable to me. Becky Eason Burkett has a different opinion. I was hoping to never have to wait tables again, but it ' s okay. I enjoy singing and working with the people. Burkett is a graduate student working on a master of arts with a concentration in jazz composition and studio production. She said that she is finishing an album side for her thesis project that will include two other Memories employees: Chris Bryars on drums and Ray Barbett on bass. It ' s mostly Top 40, jazz. said Burkett, who performs Natural Woman , If Loving You is Wrong , and Come in from the Rain . Memphis Memories ' has entertainment nightly. The first show starts at 7 p.m. and lasts about 45 minutes, and is followed by two more shows each about 30 minutes apart. — Jim Allen 244 Memories •-1. m -;,, -.,:■■. , : :;:..

The organizations here on campus consist of many different types of people and do many different things. They sponsor many activities such as the Homecoming elections, blood drives, book co-ops, speakers and much more. However they are not all fun and games. They serve a big purpose here at MSU — helping the students to get involved, helping them to set goals for their lives, and even more, helping them to achieve those goals. So, if you ' d really like to make some new friends and get involved then one (or more) of the MSU organizations is for you. And there couldn ' t be a better time than now because Memphis State ' s organizations are BETTER THAN EVER. r fi 4wt Student Ambassador Board 250 Resident Advisors 251 Student Government Association 252 Student Activities Council 258 Student Interfaith Council 262 Christian Student Center 264 Baptist Student Union 265 Black Student Association 266 ASCE 267 University Center 267 Housing and Home Furnishing 268 Memphis State Planning Association 268 Students of Personnel Administration 269 Insurance Club 269 Blue Chippers 270 Russion Culture Club 271 Organizations Angie Aviotti Joan Bolton vice president for special events Joanna Burke Ann Burton Sarah Carroll social chairman Tina Coda Caryn Coffey Allen Dawson vice president for development Cathy Diel Sharon Elliott Wes Ellis president Phil Feisal Julie Frazier Kevin Garner Vickie Garrett reporter historian Amy George Donna Giddings John Hartney Jan Hubbard Gordon Kelly Lori Kessler Michele Lockhart Kenneth Madden Amy Martin vice president for student relations Shiela Murphy Morgan Pickel vice president for public relations Brent Robertson Paul Schifani Bill Snodgras Tom Avoboda Julie Thompson Susie Thompson Lisa Turner secretary treasurer Kevin Vaughan Beth Windsor Conde Windsor Debra Young Host and hostess with the mostess?

Need someone to hold down that noise level? Whatever is needed in your campus home away from home — the residence hall — your resident advisor will try to supply. Memphis State University operates four residence halls for men and six for women, and although no one is required to live in the dorms, they are very popular places indeed. Residents are accepted on a first come, first-served basis, so applications never stop at the Office of Residence Life. Once you ' ve made it into a dorm, look first for that indispensible resident adviser. RA ' s are selected each spring on the basis of group and personal interviews. All are fulltime students with a GPA of no less than 2.25. All have lived in a residence hall for at least one semester, so they are familiar with all the rules, regulations and problems which may arise. One RA is assigned to each residence floor. Their work knows few limits: it may range from opening up a door for a locked-out student to solving some pretty weighty personal problems. As a former RA said, We are responsible for the men or women on our floor. It ' s our job to help in any way we can. That help includes making sure that all dorm rules are followed and programming. RA ' s provide a monthly program, either social or educational, for the residents of their floor. No two days are ever alike, another former RA commented. We can be up all night if something serious happens, or we can have a whole day where nothing at all goes on. There can be times when this part-time job looks like anything but, and the variety of demands seems over- whelming. It can be a really hard job, she says but the rewards can be enormous. The largest residence hall on the MSU campus is Richardson, with its two towers. The smallest men ' s dorm is Newport and the smallest women ' s dorm McCord. There are no coed dorms at MSU, but visitation rights run from noon until 2 a.m. Friday and Saturday, and noon to midnight the rest of the week. Student Life 251 Student Government Association The Student Government Association (SGA) at Memphis State University is the governing board for student policy recom- mendations. Composed of students elected by the MSU student body, the group has a list of continuing activities including: Schlitz Belle Hospitality Night, Book Co-op, Student Discount Directory, the SGA Scholarship program, the Student Life Insurance Plan, campus Speaker Programs, the Lobby Against Financial Aid Cuts and the Tennessee Intercollegiate Legislature. Other special activities of the SGA depend on student interests in any given year. Leaders of the SGA are members of the Executive Branch of the organization and this year are Mary Ann Murphy, junior, president; and Greg J. McKenna, graduate student, vice president. The SGA Cabinet plans programs and executes Senate Bills and Resolutions. Members and their offices are: Mark Baker, senior, secretary of state; Richard Cartwright, third year law student, attorney general; Scott Crone, junior, budget di- rector; Mary Earheart, junior, secretary of public relations; Jerry Gnuschke, junior, secretary of academic affairs; John D. Hartney, junior, executive assistant to the president; Gary Vernon Kutz, junior, as- sociate secretary of state; John M. Linxwiler, sophomore, secretary of campus affairs; Troy Malone, sophomore, assistant to the secretary for public relations; and Gene Kevin Turney, sophomore, associate attorney general. The Judicial Branch consists of a Student Court, headed by Chief Justice Hansel Jay McCadams, a third-year law student, and eight justices. Justices are: Kelvin W. Bonner, senior; Phil R. Bryant, senior; Joe Crabtree, associate chief justice, second- year law student; James W. Fisher, senior; Steve W. Likens, junior; Nancy McShan, junior; Richard Paul Prokup, senior, and Janie Taylor, senior. The court hears student traffic appeals and recently was granted the power to hear social discipline cases. It also has juris- diction over SGA constitutional matters. The largest branch of the SGA is the Legislative Branch which presents bills and resolutions to improve student life at Memphis State. Headed by Lauri Catherine Stephan, senior, speaker of the Senate, this body is composed of 32 senators. They are: senators of the College of Business, Angelia K. Atkins, sophomore; Larry Allen Dawson, senior; Jeffrey Heavey, junior; and Thomas Lopez, sophomore. The SGA Executive Council: Hansel McCadams, Chief Justice; Greg McKenna, Vice President; Lauri Stephan, Speaker of the Senate; Mary Ann Murphy, President.

Thompson, junior; En- gineering College senators Ruth Jeanette Hurst, junior; and Brent G. Robertson, senior; University College senator Lucinda A. Rio; and Law School senator Nelle White, second-year law student. The remaining senators are elected at- large and include: Brent Bousson, sopho- more; Beth Caron, sophomore; Randon Carvel, junior; George Davis, junior; Catherine Denise Diel, junior; Teresa 252 Organizations SrudeNT Government Association Faulk, freshman; Joe Flynn, senior; Kevin Scott Garner, sophomore; Jeanne Harris, sophomore; Elizabeth (Beth) P. Harty, senior; Lakshmi N. Jayanthi, graduate student; Walter Kallaher II, sophomore; Jim S. Strickland, sophomore; James Patrick Turpin, senior; Cary Yancey, senior, and Debra Young, sophomore. Five standing committees serve the SGA. They are the Legislative Committee which oversees attendance, conduct, procedures for expulsion from the SGA and other internal matters; the Finance, Ways Means Committee which handles budgetary matters; Student Life and Welfare Com- mittee which deals with matters pertaining to the academic and general policies of MSU; and the Judiciary Committee which oversees changes in SGA by-laws, amend- ments to the constitution and review of appointments to SGA office. This com- mittee has the Rules and the Credentials subcommittees. Kenny Madden chairs the Legislative Council; Brent Robertson heads the Finance, Ways Means Committee; Walter Kallaher heads Student Life Welfare; Cathy Diel chairs Education; and Catherine Hayes-Crawford heads the Ju- diciary. Organizations 253 The SGA Senate: Brent Bousson, Walter Callaber, Cary Yangey and Debra Young. Two of the Student Government Asso- ciation ' s on-going projects are the awarding of scholarships and the Memphis State Book Co-op. SGA reserves 16 percent of the student activity fee funds collected for an SGA Academic Scholarship Program for which any MSU student may apply. Those awarded the scholarships are obligated to perform service for about 30 hours each semester on SGA committees or as ap- pointed cabinet officers. To qualify for the awards, a student must have at least a 2.75 GPA or a 21 score on the SAT test as an in-coming freshman. Holding SGA Academic scholarships during the current year are Allen Dawson, John Hartney, Catherine Hayes-Crawford, John Fields, John Linxwiler, June Peoples and Greg Singleton. The SGA Book Co-op is the plan developed by the organization as a service to help MSU students avoid the high cost of textbooks. Used textbook sellers bring their books to the Co-op, where they are displayed for buyers. Unsold books are returned to the owner, who is paid for any books sold, less a 10 pecent handling fee which covers expenses, possible damage or theft. Co-op duty is taken seriously by the SGA, which sees the program as a direct, one-on-one program to help MSU stu- dents. Every SGA member takes a shift with the co-op, and learns the co-op pro- cedures to be able to answer students ' questions promptly and accurately. The book exchange is a relatively new SGA project which is only beginning to be recognized as a potential money-saving opportunity by students. Those who or- ganize and operate the co-op are convinced it will become an event on which Memphis State students will depend to ease the financial burden of rising educational costs.

Student Government 955 Perhaps the most exciting event Student Government Association members parti- cipate in during the year is the Tennessee Intercollegiate State Legislature (TISL), a convention of the state ' s college leaders. Held in Nashville in November, TISL was organized by the 50 SGA ' s on Tennessee campuses as a method of coor- dinating the activities of student leadership organizations statewide. TISL is funded by privatedonationsand dues from member institutions. It is a nonpartisan student educational organi- zation which meets four days at the State Capitol as a senate and house of repre- sentatives to consider resolutions and bills reflecting the concerns of Tennessee ' s higher education students. Some 100 pieces of legislation - offered by delegations from each of the participating schools — are considered during the event, and topics range from environmental concerns to highway construction and the quality of higher education. Ten pieces of legislation are selected from the bills passed to be submitted to the Tennessee General Assembly for possible action during the legislative sessions. In 1983, Memphis State ' s delegation to TISL included 20 members, the largest single delegation at the event. Seventy-two bills were considered by the 20th General Assembly — 23 written and sponsored by Memphis State delegates. Of the nine bills selected for presentation to Tennessee Gov. Lamar Alexander, four were sponsored by Memphis State ' s delegation. Several Memphis State students also held positions of responsibility at TISL. John Hartney served as treasurer and a member of the Executive Council; Catherine Hayes-Crawford, who was chair- man of the Memphis State TISL delegation, was named to the Board of Directors, and Mary Ann Murphy served as West Tennessee Recruiter. Four members of the Memphis State delegation were selected to receive the Carlisle Award, an annual award to the 10 most outstanding legislators at the General Assembly, determined by their lobbying, debate and leadership talents. The winners were Murphy, Hayes-Crawford, Richard Cartwright and Cary Yancey. Having four of the Carlisle winners from one school ' s delegation was a first for TISL. Anoth er first for the convention was Hayes-Crawford ' s nomination as the first female candidate for TISL governor. Although defeated in a close race, her nomination was a reiteration of Memphis State ' s preeminent role for TISL, 1983. Other MSU delegates earning recogni- tion, in the form of Legislative Awards, were Hartney, Kenny Madden, Anne Williams and Jim Strickland. Mary anne Murphy, President of SGA, gives an office report to the members of SGA. Other officers, Laurel Stephan and Charleyn Sipes, are also in attendance. Bennett Moore (on table), President of Motown, donates at the SGA Blood Drive while SGA President Mary Ann Murphy and Todd Hughes look on. 256 Organizations The Southern Optometry Group visited campus to examine some of the students ' eyes. During the 1983-84 academic year, two special matters drew the attention of Student Government Association members: conducting polls to determine Memphis State students ' feelings about general campus policies and about the campus parking situation. The general campus policy poll found that Memphis State students generally favored having alcohol in dorm rooms (62 percent) and having a campus pub (72 percent). Sixty-eight percent of students answering the survey approved a policy whereby one male and one female residence hall would allow 24-hour visitation. Other policy matters found 78 percent of responding students favoring a standard- ized textbook policy, against a $1 increase in the student activity fee (51 percent), opposed to raising the legal drinking age from 19 to 21 (52 percent), in favor of using University general funds for multi-level parking garages (61 percent), in favor of using traffic fines for construction of multi-level parking garages (64 pecent), favored using superior teaching perfor- mance as a major factor in deciding tenure for professors (78 percent), and favored students having more input in the faculty tenure review process (70 percent). The student opinion poll on campus parking was distributed to faculty and Memphis State staff as well. An early meeting of the SGA Council finds a full house pondering student problem. Student Government 257 The Student Activities Council gives students the opportunity to develop their vocation, citizenship, problem solving and personal growth skills. Group workshops, personal meetings and a positive, caring environment are all contributing factors that motivate students to volunteer their time and energies to the Student Activities Council. The Council has two staff advisers and a staff secretary who provide assistance, guidance, a pat-on-the-back for a job well done and a shoulder to cry on when the outcome is less than hoped, said Laina Wakeley, 1983-84 SAC president. Student Activities Council personnel are assisted by the nine board members who head the standing committees of the or- ganization. Secret buddies help persona- lize group meetings, and friendship is a key factor in the council ' s success, Wakeley said. The Student Activities Council Concerts Committee is charged with providing the Memphis State student body with a wide variety of entertainment throughout the school year. Members of the Concerts Committee contact musical groups to perform on campus and seek the widest possible range of contemporary sounds. The committee is also responsible for providing adequate assistance for the smooth functioning of each sponsored event, including manpower and technical assistance. The Concerts body is charged with evaluating each event on the basis of quality and merit for future reference. Students who direct the activities of this committee head its public relations effort; its administration — including surveys to determine the kind of musical presentations students desire; and its production phase which encompasses lighting, sound and setup-takedown of equipment. Focus on dress and fashion is the work of the Student Activities Council Fashion Board Committee, which tries to interest Memphis State students in a variety of new fashions. This group plans and implements all of SAC ' s fashion shows, which involves a blend of interests by off-campus sponsors and on-campus groups. The Fashion Board is a quasi-educational unit as well, because its members instruct in aspects of modeling and production of the shows it sponsors. Each year the group evaluates the shows it puts on and reports on successes for future Fashion Boards. Elements of the committee are those directing advertising and promotion, and the technical aspects of the show itself. Fashion Board schedules events for Wel- come Week, Homecoming, a bridal show, and special on-campus and off-campus events. Selection and presentation of feature films is the duty of SAC ' s Films Committee. It not only selects films to show students, but provides the fare at reduced cost. Faculty and MSU staff members are included in the intended film audience. This group secures films and video tapes for presentation, plans and adminsters special movie programs and works with co-sponsoring organizations to ensure the success of each program. In addition to the leaders who handle co-sponsorships, scheduling, advertising and hospitality, the group is responsible for extensive equipment use and main- tenance. SA C Means Fun and Friendship The Student Activities Council sponsors many events such as speakers like the mentalist the Amazing Kreskin (above) and the Homecoming election. 258 Organizations The SAC Production Committee: Bill Binford, Tammi Desnica, Greg Kuehl, Chairman; Don Hudgins.

Members serve as personnel to work concession booths, seek out non-University Program events for which they may repre- sent Memphis State and evaluate all Hospitality Committee activities for future reference. The group works with academic depart- ments on campus, student organizations and off-campus activities as well. The technical, behind-the-scenes work of the Student Activities Council is spear- headed by its Production Committee. Student participants learn a variety of potential vocational skills with sound equipment, lighting, loading and unloading of performers ' equipment. The group must keep an accurate inventory of SAC equip- ment and must insure that others using the SAC equipment are adequately trained in its correct operation. Getting maximum exposure for all Student Activities Council events is the duty of the Publicity Committee which must employ a variety of marketing and public relations skills. This committee maintains and updates SAC ' s marquee on the second floor of the University Center, distributes all publicity requests for SAC, coordinates the on-and off -campus advertising and public relations activities of SAC, strives to enhance SAC ' s image on campus and in the surrounding community and evaluates the success of its efforts for future members. Sub-chairmen for internal events include the public relations liaison for arts, audio- visual, Fashion Board, Hospitality, indoor recreation, music, outdoor recreation, speakers and special events. Advertising for all SAC events comes under the direction of the Publicity Com- mittee which designs and produces all fliers, Helmsman newspaper ads, banners and posters. The group distributes these materials and insures that advertising exceeds SAC ' s minimum standards for timeliness and quality of production. Outdoor and indoor activities and tour- naments fall under the direction of the Student Activities Council ' s Recreation Committee. This group coordinates and runs all sponsored outdoor events including exhibi- tions and visiting professionals. The com- mittee provides selected trips to students, faculty and staff at reduced rates.

Winners of the campus-wide tournament are coached by the committee to prepare MSU winners for their regional contest. Additional indoor recreation events include chess, backgammon, table tennis, billiards and football-darts contests. Members of the SAC Speakers Com- mittee educate and entertain Memphis State students by providing well-known personalities to lecture on a variety of subjects. The committee contacts educational speakers and schedules programs to provide a balanced program of topics. In addition to scheduling, committee members provide adequate assistance for each event, work with co-sponsoring organizations and evaluate all speaker events for quality and merit. Memphis State ' s Homecoming and Miss Memphis State pageant are directed by SAC ' s Special Events Committee. These two annual events are among the foremost offerings the University Programs division has, and work to make them an annual success requires a major effort by all students concerned. In addition to the pageant and Home- coming activities, the committee works closely with the Student Activities Council for any special programs SAC may sponsor. sac 261 Father John Boll, Catholic Student Center Chaplain, greets a new student during orientation. 262 Student Interfaith Council Student Interfaith Council Members Give Life to Brotherly Love Composed of representatives from char- tered religious organizations on campus, The Student Interfaith Council sponsors and promotes activities to foster the spirit of brotherhood. Two representatives from each campus religious organization serve on the Council and coordinate and assist with the activities of each group. Its meetings, held twice a month, are designed to promote interfaith understanding and exchange of ideas. The Council was represented at the Student Organizations Fair and sponsored a religious organization fair. Religious Emphasis Week was a major spring program.

Weekly activities include Monday night dinners, Thursday lunches, Bible credit class, life talks and Friday night devotionals. Special events sponsored by CSC include a hospitality booth where beverages are distributed to registering MSU students, and work days during which center members help CSC faculty and older citizens in the Highland Street Church of Christ. Three retreats per year are provided for members of the Christian Student Center, and members attend several seminars each year. Several special meal-related activities include breakfast devotionals, kick-off dinners and banquets. Members of CSC advertise in campus literature and prepare brochures and packets to be distributed to new MSU students at the beginning of each semester. Photo by J.

Its goal is to encourage academic excellence and social awareness as students strive for unity. The BSA does many things for its members, such as informing them of job opportunities, providing tutors in various subjects, advocating changes which stu- dents consider desirable, lobbying before the Student Government Association and providing entertaining and informative activities. Why is a Black Student Association needed at Memphis State? The reasons are many, BSA officers believe. It promotes the culture of black Americans by sponsor- ing culturally enriching programs. It works to make sure that the University considers the interests and needs of its black students, as well as to motivate black students to participate in everything at the University. It advocates efforts to address the concerns and problems of black students and it works to unite the black community. The stated purpose of the BSA is to unite the social, academic and economic values of black students; to unite black minds; to assist black students in achieving their goals; to educate them on cultural, political, economic and social concerns and, most importantly, to foster ideals of brother- hood between all races and nationalities so that one day there will be no need for the Black Student Association.

The American Society of Civil Engineers was founded in 1852, making it the oldest professional engineering society in the nation. The object of the society is to promote interest in the study of civil engineering and to advance it as a profession. By helping students begin their professional contacts, the association feels it is fulfilling an important role. In March of last year, the MSU chapter won first place in a concrete canoe race, which is more than just a boating event for this organization. It is an exercise in surveying, design and building. Officers are Harvey Matheny, president; Rob Fulp, vice president, Laura Rowland, executive secretary; Paula Gray, corres- ponding secretary, and treasurer Frank McPhail, who points out that the chapter has the lowest dues of all engineering organizations because of the support given by the professional chapter.

Memphis may not have had the benefit of today ' s surveys, protections and plans in the days those decisions were made, but today ' s modern city requires the services of city planners. And Memphis State is ready to provide the trained workers to fill that role. It all began in 1974 when the Graduate Department of Planning began operations and offered a two year professional degree, Master of City and Regional Planning. Hoping to provide a communication between student and professional planners and community leaders, the students formed the Student Planners Association that first fall. The name was later changed to the Memphis State University Planners Association. The group meets each week in the department of geography and planning. Officers are: Kay Artis, president; Frank Donohue, vice president; Mary Love, secretary and Alain Carranza, treasurer. Housing Home Furnishing Creating Beauty in the Home is Designers Ideal House Beautiful is what the Housing and Home Furnishings Association has in mind as it seeks to promote an awareness and understanding of the importance of the study of home furnishings. Begun in 1980, the organization works with the department of home economics and brings decorators, interior designers and people from retail furniture and acces- sory establishments to speak on campus to students with special interests in the area. The group also holds decorating seminars and plans to offer pilgrimage tours. The group points with pride to indi- vidual members who have won scholar- ships offered by the Home Furnishings Association. Angela Ziegler serves as president of the group; Ginger Kinzel is vice president and Debbie Beard is secretary treasurer. 268 Organizations Personnel Memphis State ' s Students of Personnel Administration don ' t have to blow their own horn. Their national organization did it for them by granting them the Chapter Merit Award last spring at the national convention in New York City. The award was given in recognition of organization and programming excellence, and the Memphis chapter vows to keep right on deserving that honor. Formed on campus in 1979, the group is affiliated with the American Society for Personnel Administration and is sponsored by its local chapter, The Memphis Per- sonnel Association. Its goals are to keep personnel students professionally informed and to develop a nucleus ot truly protes- sional personnel administrators. Officers are president, Susan Clabough; secretaries, Rosemary Hollidayand Lynda Shelton, and public relations director Patty Ferguson. Dr. Coy A. Jones is adviser. Fogelman College of Business, home of the Students of Personnel Administration. Insurance Club Organized in 1970 as a social club for insurance students, the MSU Insurance Club provides a social meeting ground for students who share the same major. In addition to bi-weekly meetings, mem- bers visit the Tennessee Department of Insurance in Nashville each year and also visit a local insurance company office. Two parties with insurance alumni are also held each year. Officers include John N. Giavoli Jr., president; Denise Smith, vice president, and Melinda Osborn, secretary-treasurer.

The Blue Chippers for one. Now in their second year on campus, the Blue Chippers know what school spirit is all about and want to share that knowledge with every student on campus. Working closely with the athletic depart- ment, the Chippers sponsor banner contests at Homecoming. The Campus Crawl dance and pep rally held in the fall and tailgate parties at all home games were among their major activities this year. Melisha Hedrick is coordinator; Lee Hodrett, assistant coordinator; Kim Rawls, secretary, and Elaine Bannister, public relations director. Bobby Plunk serves as adviser. For the Home Team Blue Chippers keep school spirits high as students gather to show their support for the Tigers at the Homecoming Pep Rally. 270 Organizations Russian Culture Club Since being established in 1963, the Memphis State Russian Culture Club has attempted to educate the student body and the community as a whole, said club president John Bass. The club, which meets one night each month, gives students a chance to see more of the culture of the country whose language they are studying than they are able to see in the limited classroom time. Featured at their Tuesday night meetings were movies, slide presen- tations and guest speakers relating to the Slavic theme of the club. Along with the Russian Culture Club, Slavic language students were also able to gain admittance into Dobro Slovo, the Slavic language honor society. During the year a variety of events took place including a Christmas party, a symposium on the Ukranian famine of 1932 and the guest appearance of Dr. Dmitry Bobyshev, a Russian born dissident poet.

The Greeks. Natives of no foreign country, these campus kinfolk share only a special state of mind. From the first frantic scramble of Rush, they enter a land of their own design, seeking a family, a clan, to which they can happily belong. For some, going Greek is the gateway to easy camaraderie and a ready-made social life. For others, it is the start of deeper friendships which can endure beyond campus days, an opportunity for community service and a sense of belonging. The call to community service was strong in Greek activities this year, with numerous benefits and collections to aid local and national health and service agencies. The fun and games promise met easy fulfillment with a variety of activities and events. Derby Day field events brought friendly competition to a new level as the brothers and sisters raced, jumped and paraded, determined to be the best. All-Sing moved that competition from the field to stage as the sororities and fraternities tried to sing and dance their way t o victory. Burger Bust celebrated yet another talent as Greek trenchermen ate their way to fame in a race to see who could consume the most hamburgers. Anchor Splash found the groups meeting and competing in and out of the swimming pool.

One of the biggest Greek activities of the year is Rush. Rush is a week of parties in which each participant has an opportunity to meet different Greek individuals and groups in order to decide whether to become a part of Greek life on campus by pledging. Barbara Walters, president of Sigma Kappa sorority, said, Like all Greek groups, we look for a person who is willing to be active in the group and can still keep a satisfactory grade point average. We look for high school activities because chances are, if a girl was active in high school, she will also be active in college, she said. Rush can sometimes be a time of frustration and pressure, but Mindy Sopher, adviser for Greek affairs, offered some encourage- ment. Just be yourself. Enjoy getting to know people and go into rush with an open mind. Each sorority has some form of entertainment, such as singing or acting out skits. Sorority rush is structured and formal, said Sopher. During rush week, sorority rushees go to parties in the sorority rooms in the Panhellenic Building. Only members and rushees attend. Fraternity formal rush is for men who are apprehensive about going through rush on their own, according to Tommy Svoboda, IFC vice-president. Sorority rush offers rushees a chance to get acquainted with the different sororities on campus and choose which one is most suitable for them. Barbara Walters, president of Sigma Kappa, has a quiet chat with a prospective Greek. Karren Koles of Alpha Gamma Delta extends a friendly welcome to one of their many rushees. 274 Rush The sororities take one night of Rush to perform skits for the rushees. Alpha Delta Pi ' s skit was The Rainbow Connection. Krista Macko and Scarlett Cavagnaro discuss Greek life with actives from one of the sororities. Rush 275 RUSH The fraternity rushees attend parties at each fraternity house. Members, alumni and little sisters are present. Svoboda said a more relaxed atmosphere prevails in fraternity rush. Fraternity men mingle with rushees and some fraternities have alumni speakers and slide shows. Joining a fraternity or sorority is one way to make a large campus seem smaller, according to one sorority pledge. Along with the benefits of Greek life come financial obligations, however. Charles Dunstan, chapter adviser for a sorority said average dues for sororities are $25 per month. In addition, a pledge fee of about $40, an initiation fee of about $100 and a badge fee ranging from $5 to $50 is paid only once. Svoboda said the average dues for fraternities are about $35 per month. An initiation fee of about $135 and a pledge fee of about $40 is paid one time. Residents of the fraternity house pay more. The only other requirement for pledging is a 2.0 grade point average for Panhellenic and a 2.5 GPA for Pan-Hellenic. —Cathy Diel The FIJI Waltz is always a popular step at the FIJI house at their parties, as demonstrated by Cara Crane and Terry Watkins.

Pi Beta Phi was the overall winner. Alpha Gamma Delta had a good week and came in second, while Phi Mu came in third. Things were started with a campus parade and then the sororities got busy! Pi Beta Phi won the derby snatch which entailed snatching and keeping the hats of several fraternity brothers. Pi Phi tied with Alpha Gam in the number of field event wins. Egg-a-Sig, shoe stack, water balloon toss, and musical water buckets were just a few of the field events that co-chairman Geary Hamm and Allen Dawson thought up for the ladies. Miss Derby Doll was Kathy Hamilton, of Pi Phi, and Phi Mu ' s Miss Melanie Trout was awarded Miss Shape. The Photo Scavenger Hunt was won by Alpha Gam and the Derby Hunt or Golden Derby by Alpha Delta Phi. The Sigma Kappas were voted to have had the most spirit overall. The week held loads of fun, celebra- tions, and parties, the largest of which was held by Sigma Kappa in which over five hundred people attended. Golden Man Larry Fogarty, of Sigma Chi, won the Dress- a - Pledge competition for Phi Mu as the Oscar .

Greeks 279 A 11 Sing All Sing was held last March at the Cook Convention Center. The campus sororities and fraternities competed in a contest based on talent and stage presentation. Only hand motions and hand-held props were allowed, with each group being given dire warnings against excessive foot move- ment. The judges consisted of local professional musicians. First place in the fraternity division went to Kappa Alpha, whose theme was The Past 20 Years in American Music. Alpha Gamma Delta won first place in the sorority division with A Salute to the user.

The profits from the Bust were donated to Kappa Alpha ' s national philanthropy, by Danver ' s, and the beverages and tee-shirts were sponsored by Coors. Money was raised from a $25 entry fee, personal pledges and profits from tee-shirts and drinks. The two-man teams were given five minutes to engulf as many hamburgers as possible. The record still stands at six burgers. Last year thirteen teams participated in the event. Pi Kappa Alpha took first place, Lambda Chi Alpha placed second and Kappa Alpha came in third. Over 500 dollars was raised last year, which surpassed any previous year ' s in- come. The competition is open to any entry, though most competitors were fraternities. Future plans include opening a division to sororities. -Tonda Brewer If I NEVER see another hamburger, itll be too soon!

No admission was charged, but donations were accepted and contri- buted for aid to the blind and for sight conservation. The events started with the retiring of the first place trophy to its permanent location at the Lambda Chi house. The champs came back and gave all a good run for their money. Lambda Chi walked off with first place awards with Bathing Beauty or Mr. Muscle, Johnny Chenault, Beautiful Legs Tony Phifer, Water Ballet, and the Fraternity Spirit award. All the first place wins just were not enough. The Sigma Alpha Epsilon brothers replaced Lambda Chi and were the overall winners of the event. Sigma Alpha Epsilon won four of the seven events in the swimming contest. Lambda Chi won three of the seven swimming events. Pi Kappa Alpha came in third place overall. The sororities had a good showing. Delta Zeta won the spirit award, Phi Mu ' s Melanie Trout won the mermaid contest and Phi Mu Tina Johnson won the most beautiful eyes contest. Everyone had a good time admiring swim strokes, legs and eyes, and the MSU Greeks helped raise money for a much needed service. Grace, poise, skill, and good looks are all vital parts of the Water Ballet Competition. Pi Kappa Alpha ' s Skip Dickenson, Randy Tims, and Mark Copley exhibit all of these characteristics as they demonstrate their talent. Muscle Man Jimmy Dolan of Sigma Alpha Epsilon competes in the Muscle Man Competition. Jimmy came close, but Lambda Chi took first place in the competition. Greeks 283 ORDER OF OMEGA The Order of Omega was founded at the University of Miami in 1959 by a group of outstanding fraternity men who felt that individuals in the Greek community should be recognized for their service to the fraternity and the university. The Order of Omega strives to recognize those Greek men and women who have attained a high standard of leadership in interfraternity activities and to encourage them to continue along such a line. Order of Omega also works to bring together outstanding Greek members to create an organization which will help to mold the sentiment of the institutiion on questions of local and intercollegiate fraternity affairs. The 30 members of the Order of Omega award the Presidential Award to the most outstanding president of the previous year. They also host a Teacher ' s Tea and members initiation in the spring semester.

Delta Zeta ' s Lisa Hatchett was awarded the title of Miss Memphis and was a Homecoming Court Candidate. The Most Improved Scholarship in the Panhellenic was also awarded to Delta Zeta along with the Philanthropy Award for the 19th Province in Tennessee. The sorority gives the Ruth Younghanse Cren- shaw Award to an outstanding senior and an award to the year ' s Best Pledge and the Best Active. In order for a prospective Delta Zeta to pledge, she must have a 2.25 GPA. A 2.00 GPA is necessary to be initiated. The ladies of Delta Zeta host the Delta Zeta Follies to raise money for a Greek Scholarship pro- gram. Nationally, Delta Zeta supports the Gualladet College for the Speech and Hearing Impaired in Washington State. Greeks 285 ALPHA DELTA PI a An Alpha Delta Pi is in its 36th year at Memphis State. It was the first secret sorority for women at MSU, coming to Memphis in 1947. ADPi strives to unify sisterhood and to promote friendship and scholarship among its members and college. Ladies who pledge ADPi enjoy the warmth and friendliness of the sorority sisters. The sorority is enjoying national success with a new charter having been organized last year at Austin Peay State University in Clarksville, Tennessee. Several of the ADPi members from Memphis State helped with the installation in November of 1983. For a lady student to maintain her membership in ADPi, she must have a 2.0 GPA. Alpha Delta Pi works with all the Greek organizations in the Panhellenic Council; it also supports the National Ronald McDonald House Program. The ladies of ADPi host a fall Barn Party in October and a Pledge-Active Dance in November. Each year the sorority presents the Fra- ternity of the Year Award to the fraternity that actively participates in Greek intra- mural activities. ADPi also bases its deci- sion on a fraternity ' s scholarship standing. Alpha Delta Pi was proud to have Melisha Hedrick elected as Greek Woman of the Year!

Ever since it came to Memphis State on April 12, 1947, Alpha Gam has worked diligently in the Greek system at MSU and in the surrounding community. The ladies of Alpha Gam hold initiation into their sorority annually in January. There is frequently an initiation ceremony in May, depending on the number of Spring Rushees. Last year, Alpha Gamma Delta went from a pre-Rush 43 to a total of 66 members after Rush. Along with the other sororities and fratern- ities on campus, Alpha Gam works with the Panhellenic, Pan-Hellenic and Interfratern- ity Councils. At the Greek Awards banquet last year, Alpha Gam received the Sorority of the Year Award for 1982-83. The sisters of Alpha Gam were also the Intramurals winners for the same years. In competition with the other sororities in All-Sing, Alpha Gamma Delta came away with first place. Their theme was A Salute to the U SO. The ladies sang songs from the ' 40s that were likely to have been sung to the troops on U SO tours. Don ' t Sit Under the Apple Tree, The Wild Blue Yonder and 111 Be Seeing You were a few of the songs from their program. Each year, Alpha Gam sponsors a balloon derby which benefits Juvenile Diabetes. The ladies raise money by selling balloons with a ticket attached to them. Last year, they raised nearly $500 for their charity. Alpha Gam strongly encourages scholastic achievement among its sisters. Members must have a 2.0 GPA to maintain their mem- bership; there are also required study ses- sions for the pledges and actives. There are several awards given within the chapter. Best Pledge Award, Activities Woman of the Year and other awards promote study and involvement among the sorority members. Alpha Gam ' s year is full of many scheduled activities. All-Sing, Rush, Derby Day, Greek Week and Homecoming are yearly events that the ladies look forward to. Alpha Gam hosts their formal, the Rose and Buff Cotil- lion, and participates in the Cerebral Palsy Fashion Show, Banner and Car-Decorating contests and a Pledge-Alumni dinner. Par- ents ' Tea, Teachers ' Tea and Christmas parties are held yearly also. The ladies of Alpha Gamma Delta enjoy their work and fun during the year, and they enjoyed a successful year last year with many honors, awards and memories to show for their work.

Founded nationally at Lewis School for Girls (now Ole Miss) in 1875, Delta Gamma has effectively combined the scholastic and social aspects of campus life and extended their influence throughout the community. The Delta Gams were awarded for their efforts — honored as the most outstanding chapter in Province IX which includes West Tennessee, Louisiana and Mississippi. The ladies also won spirit trophies for the home- coming pep rally and Greek Week. The sorority excelled athletically, headed by Anna Marie Mottola, and was crowned Intramural Champion for Spring of 1983. With help from panhellenic delegate Ann Burton, fraternity education advisor Conde Windsor and historian-activities chairman Lee Farmer, the members have worked closely with other campus organizations to instill support for campus unity. Putting forth much time and effort at Memphis State does not limit the Delta Gams from aiding charities, though, especially the blind. Social chairman Kim Rawls has planned to make 1984 an even better year with pledge swaps, formal and informal rushes and many dance formals. When the Delta Gammas meet in February at the annual Province Leadership School at Ole Miss, they will be looking to repeat as outstanding province chapter and to prove that sororities are an important part of a university such as Memphis State.

As one of the first National Panhellenic Council groups installed at MSU, Phi Mu is the second oldest National Organization for Women. Because of their busy schedule last year, the sisters of Phi Mu have received many awards and honors. At the Leadership Conference at Ole Miss last July, Phi Mu won the Phi Mu slogan contest. Phi Mu s Melanie Trout was the winner of the Mermaid Contest at Delta Gamma ' s Anchor Splash last year, and Sharon Russell was named Miss Memphis State. Phi Mu ' s Barn Party and Alumni-Col- legiate Party were held last year, and, needlss to say, a good time as had by all! Phi Mu participated in the Student Or- ganizations Fair and Sigma Chi ' s Derby Day festivities. The ladies of Phi Mu must maintain a 2.0 GPA to remain in good standing. The Most Improved Scholarship Award is given annually by Phi Mu at the Greek Awards Banquet. Phi Mu supports a different charity each year.

They were officially founded May 3, 1947, as the second sorority at Memphis State. The forty-five member sorority gives its support, partitipation, and dedication to the campus and community. Their purpose is to help make each sister the most of what she can and wants to be. Through their activities to the school and community this goal is achieved. The Sigma Kappas participate in such campus events as All Sing, Greek Week, Derby Day, the Sigma Kappa Fall Party, the Sigma Kappa Crown Pearl Ball, and Pledge Swaps. The sisters work closely with their own Alum Group. Gerentology is their local philanthropy. Visits, songs, home-made items and parties are just a few of the treats given to the local elerly in the area. Their National Philan- thropies are the Maine Sea Coast Mission and the American Farm School. The Maine Sea Coast mission helps tne underprivi- ledged in the Maine area, and the Farming School is located in Greece and educates Greek children on the fundamentals of farming in hopes of preventing the children from living a life of poverty. This year the Sigma Kappas were awarded first place in the All Sing Small Division, second overall with intramural wins, the Turkey Trot with Miss Suzi Feyen, and recognition from the National Sigma Kappa for excellent service with Alum-Active relations. Four sisters were initiated into the Order of Omega this year as well. The Sigma Kappa Sorority requires a minimum of 2.00 GPA. Study buddies, quiet hours, as well as a teacher file are offered to help maintain high grades. Scholarships are awarded each year, one to the Most Outstanding Senior and one to the most outstanding Sigma Kappa in the form of the Outstanding Sigma Award.

With an international nucleus of more than 70,000 service oriented sorors, AKA has continuously etched her footprints in the sands of time. The innumerable imprints have addressed the needs, issues and problems of the day. The MSU Epsilon Epsilon Chapter was chartered in 1968. Since that time, the ladies of AKA have been involved in many campus and community activities. Alpha Kappa Alpha was established as a service organization. Today their influence and concerns stretch far beyond campus gates and student interests. The major goals of program activities center upon significant issues in AKA ' s larger national life and focus on areas which range from remote corners of depressed communities to world-wide cares and concerns. Epsilon Epsilon is locally giving service as the only undergraduate adopter of a city school, granting scholar- ships and aide to its students. The list of honors and recognitions that AKA has received lately is lengthy and impressive. The Black Student Association of MSU awarded AKA with a Certificate of Award for Dedication and Service last February. Last March, AKA received the following awards at the 51st Southeastern Regional Conference, held in Biloxi, Missis- sippi,: 1st Place Civic Involvement Award, 1st Place Undergraduate Achievement A- ward and 1st Place Pictorial History Award. AKA also received a Certificate of Appre- ciation from the American Heart Association for sponsoring a Jump-a-thon for charity. The ladies also were recognized by Lincoln Elementary School for their volunteer service there. Alpha Kappa Alpha also supports the NAACP, UNICEF, UNCF, NCNW, AKA Cleveland Job Corps Center, Sickle Cell Anemia, LeBonheur Children ' s Research Hospital and a local senior citizen ' s home. The members of AKA must maintain a 2.5 GPA in order to stay in the sorority. AKA gives the Prominent Black Woman Award on an annual basis, along with Barbara K. Phillips Scholarships and Lead- erships grants. Alpha Kappa Alpha ' s calendar year is a very busy one. September is the month that AKA schedules their AKA Week on campus. Founder ' s Day is also in September. AKA ' s Prominent Black Woman Banquet is held in October, and the Sweetheart dance, the Pink and Green Ball, is held in December at the Benchmark Hotel. March is the month for AKA ' s Regional Conference, held in Nashville, and a Senior Banquet is held in May. Each month, AKA invites a group of Lincoln Elementary students to MSU for a planned program. Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority is obviously a very busy and productive organization here on campus. The ladies are very proud of their sorority, and MSU and the city of Memphis are fortunate to have such an organization here.

This year the alumni donated money to refurbish the front room of the house. Some other changes on the board include renovating the old house or buying a new one, but these plans are still on the drawing board. The 25 member fraternity enjoys a close feeling of unity and brotherhood that Leonard Tiscia Angela Carr Little Sister Tammy Meadows Little Sister Joe Cutrell Daniel Pallme cannot be found in larger groups. All the brothers work and maintain at least a 2.0 GPA at the same time. As a working fraternity, there is not always time for the many different greek events; however, they do participate in all events that aid good causes. Within the last year, the Phi Sigs helped raise money for a local politician, St. Jude ' s Childrens Research Hospital and the Kidney Foundation.

Kappa Alpha exclaims, pointing out that the fraternity is both the oldest and the largest on the Memphis State campus. As the biggest big brothers, Kappa Alphas work closely with the Interfraternity Council, Student Government Association and the Student Ambassador Board. The 93 members explain their purpose as promoting brotherhood and social interaction. And of course, traditions of good old southern hospitality, as their busy social schedule shows. Activities this year included Burger Bust, Old South Week, a luau, Black and White formal, and Halloween, Christmas and New Year ' s Eve parties for a start. Other projects including a Homecoming float, Homecoming Party and participation in the Miss MSU Pageant. Kappas also sponsored a national leadership institute. When the Kappas raise their voices in song, they make it count, as they showed by winning the Greek All-Sing award and then going on to take the overall award. They were also winners of Greek Week and managed to raise more money than any other fraternity for the Muscular Distrophy Association drive. Matt Smith is chapter president; Kevin Campbell, vice president; Greg Singleton, secretary; Kenny Madden, corresponding secretary; Scott Miles, historian; David Kelly, treasurer; Scott McCall, parliamentarian; Joe Mahar, doorkeeper, and George Davis, ritualist. The chapter was started on the Memphis State campus in October, 1948.

The fraternity has also received the Newell Award and the Fraternity of the Year Award since its rebirth in 1981. The Pikes were awarded the Regional Award for Outstanding Pledge Program, too. The gentlemen of Pi Kapa Alpha support the Big Brothers of Memphis with their time, efforts, and donations. Members of Pi Kappa Alpha must have a 2.0 GPA to be initiated into the fraternity. Awards are given on an annual basis to the most improved active GPA, the highest pledge GPA, and the highest big brother and little brother combined GPA. Vice Presient Scott Nance, Secretary Tim Matheson,and Parliamentarian John Huffman worked wih the presient and treasurer of the fraternity to achieve a record year in the history of the Pikes at MSU.

The little sisters help with the fraternity ' s Rush schedule and in planning and giving parties throughout the year. The fifty ladies who were chosen to be Little Sigmas last yearawarded their annual Man-of-the-Year Award to the brother that they considered to have shown out- standing leadership ablities. The Little Sigmas enjoy their work with Sigma Chi; they benefited from a productive year in the 83-84 school year under the directorship of their liason, Tim Tomes.

The brothers of Sigma Chi are composed of many different temperaments, talents, and convictions. Sigma Chi supports the Wallace Village for Abused Children, in Boulder, Colorado. They also raise and donate money to Saint Jude Children ' s Hospital, the Christian Children ' s Fund, Muscular Dystrophy and Cerebral Palsy research and National Hemophilia Foundation. The members of Sigma Chi work closely with the Panhellenic Council and the Interfraternity Council. Last year ' s busy schedule proved to be beneficial to Sigma Chi. The fraternity received first place in the Greek Fashion Show and All-Sing Poster Contest. They took second place in Intramurals and All-Sing Mixed Division with Pi Beta Phi Sorority. They also placed third in Greek Week Festivities. At the annual Greek Awards banquet, Sigma Chi gives the highest GPA recog- nition award for the most deserving pledge. Sigma Chi is the sponsor of Derby Day at MSU, in which all the sororities participate. They also sponsor the Sweetheart ' s Ball and Little Sigma Halloween Party. The Greek Fashion Show, Homecoming, Bro- therhood Day and Greek Ladies Night are also yearly events with Sigma Chi. Not pictured below is Phil Feisal-Rush Chairman.

The brothers of Pi Kappa Phi strive to uphold the traditions and ideas of Memphis State and to encourage academic excellence among its members. A 2.0 GPA is required of anyone who wishes to pledge Pi Kappa Phi and is also required of its active members. Joining the fraternity has many advantages. Members can participate in activities such as parties, local and national meet- ings, dancees, charity events, and many other gatherings. The fraternity awards the Gary E. Heing Most Dedicated Brother Award, the Best Plidge Award, and the David C George Highest GPA Award to the brothers who most deserve these honors. The fraternity had a very busy schedule last year. They participated in the Area V Conclave, during which 1 6 chapters from across the South-Central United States send representatives. The Gamma Delta Chapter sent 15 brothers to Birmingham, Alabama, to represent their chapter. The brothers of Pi Kappa Phi are active in the Spottswood Neighborhood Association. They also support their national philanthropy. Project PUSH (Play Units for the Severely Handicap- ped). During the 1983-84 school year, Pi Kappa Phi raised $1,000 for this project. 310 Greeks LAMBDA CHI ALPHA Lambda Chi Alpha has tried to find a few new twists to the normal manner in which a fraternity is run. They have succeeded in stressing scholastics first, due mainly to the efforts of scholarship chairman Rick Krapels (not pictured below). By implementing grou p study sessions, grade reports and teacher reports, a high academic status for the brothers of Lambda Chi is ensured. The gentlemen do take time out for a little fun, though. Competing in the annual Anchor Splash swimming event, Lambda Chi Alpha has reigned as champion four times. Second place honors also were earned this year for their talents during All Sing. Last year, Lambda Chi won the Water Ballet, Mr. Muscles and Spirit awards at Anchor Splash. Danny Bousson President Scott Werner Vice President John Giaroli Treasurer The brothers of Lambda Chi serve the needs of Les Passes Rehabilitation Center, the Kidney Foundation and Cystic Fibrosis. Inside the fraternity, the leaders of Lambda Chi Alpha have given new members an opportunity to fit right in. Rush chairman last fall was Daryl Fowler (not pictured below). With an associate member system that replaces the common pledge system, Lambda Chi gives their members a chance to have equal rights which allows the fraternity as a whole to run more smoothly.

The 35 gentlemen of Kappa Sigma were involved in many activities through- out the year. The District 12 Conclave was held in March of 1983. Seven chapters from West Tennessee and West Kentucky gathered at MSU for a weekend of semi- nars and workshops. Along with Kappa Sig ' s Valentine ' s Day Party was the fra- ternity ' s Bahama Mama Party, held in April. At the party, a vacation in the Bahamas was raffled off. The fraternity also hosted two Back-to-School Parties and a Halloween Party. The Little Sisters of the fraternity (The Stardusters) hosted a Starduster Ball for their Greek brothers. Kappa Sigma also had a Founder ' s Day gathering on December 10th, celebrating Jimmy Brisentine Grand Master David Moss Grand Procurator Tim Roberts Grand Master of Ceremonies the founding of their fraternity. Every two years there is a Grand Conclave, a national convention for the fraternity. Last year this was held in Knoxville at the World ' s Fair Holiday Inn. The members of Kappa Sigma actively emphasize the importance of studying. Study sessions for actives and pledges are held to help all members maintain the 2.0 GPA necessary to be a member of the fraternity. An award is given to the Big Brother Litle Sister with the highest GPA. At the Biennial Grand Conclave, Kappa Sigma received awards for the Most Improved Chapter, the Most Improved District, the Top Scholarship Award for continuously exceeding the All Fr aternity and All Men ' s averages, and also a Chap- ter Standards Award for excellence in Chapter programs. Curt Meier was awarded the Grand Scribe Efficiency Award, and the Ritual Proficiency Award was given to Jimmy Brisentine and Scott Beacham. During Greek Week, Kappa Sigma ' s Cary Pappas was named Fraternity of the Year and, along with Scott Beacham and Jimmy Brisentine, was inducted into the Order of Omega, an honor society for Greek members at MSU. Kappa Sigma had a very busy year last year, and the members have plenty to show for the hard work and endless efforts that they put into their fraternity. Curt Meier Grand Scribe Scott Beacham Grand Treasurer Greeks 313 PHI GAMMA DELTA The brothers of Phi Gamma Delta encourage their members to develop good study habits as well as enjoy an active social life. They promote their scholastic interests by awarding $135 annually to the pledge with the highest grade point average. It appears their enthusiasm has paid off since Phi Gamma Delta now holds the Delta Cup, the award presented to the Interfraternity pledge class with the highest GPA. It ' s not all work for Fiji, though. Some of their major social events include the annual graduate brothers dinner, the Black Diamond Formal and the Fiji Islands Luau from which the fraternity gains its nickname. A little time must also be spent in song since the 34 members of the fraternity teamed up with the sisters of Delta Zeta to take first place in the mixed division of 1983 ' s All-Sing. The gentlemen of Phi Gamma Delta donate their fund-raising profits to St. Joseph ' s Hospital. Four Fiji members also attended the International Leadership Training Academy and Workshop, spon- sored by the fraternity. Phi Gamma Delta members have a- chieved a great deal as a group and individually. For their promotion of school spirit, the Blue Chippers designated Phi Gamma Delta their Most Spirited Group. When discussing individual honors, Fiji names members Troy Cowan, who received the highest pledge GPA in the Interfra- ternity Council and Burnie Dickinson, who was named the Greek Intramural Man of the Year.

The Greek organization exists to provide a social outlet for its members and to create a lasting bond of brotherhood. The sixty-five brothers of SAE con- vene once a week on Sunday nights for their weekly planing sessions. Sigma Alpha Epsilon sponsors a boxing tour- nament in October along with Lucy ' s Ball. The sweethearts of the fraternity host their formal in the fall, also. At the end of spring, Sigma Alpha Epsilon hosts its True Beat Formal. Also during the spring semester is SAE ' s Little Sister Rush and their annual Spring Weekend. Locally and nationally, the brothers of Sigma Alpha Epsilon raise and donate money to Easter Seals. To maintain a membership in Sigma Alpha Epsilon, students must keep a 2.0 cum ulative GPA. The fraternity awards the annual Most Valuable Player Award to the outstanding player on the basktball team and an award for the Spring Football Classic. 2AE Chris Saxon-President Alan Clayton- Vice President Joel Johnson- ourc Managerfnot pictured) Paul Schifani- Treasurer Jerry Bell Tom Dorian-Pledge Trainer Paul Compton Chuck Bolton 6 Sigma Alpha Epsilon Jeff Gore Jeff Heimbach Wes Miller Tom Pitner Philip deFrank Andrew Depperschmidt Stephen Newsom Edward Simmons III Mark Simmons Joey Douglas Trey Dockery Ricky McMillon Barry Marshall Kenneth Young David Rodenhiser Christopher Thorton Dick Thompson Jeff Sullivan Michael Zachary Sigma Alpha Epsilon 317 ZANTfflPHANY Due to the fact that we were unable to sell this one miserable little page, Zanthiphany, the society of do-nothing journalists, lives again. Zanthiphany, created in the early 1 960 s when unsold space became the rule rather than the exception, has remained a sacred inspiration for our dedicated DeSoto staff throughout the year. The ZT creed, Deadlines are not carved in stone, gave us much needed encouragement during our midnight treks to Krystal and to Stop- and-Go to play Pole Position. And who can forget calling FM 100 to request Beat It seven times in the same night? Yea, surely David Sasuachwa, founder and revered leader of Zanthiphany, was with us this year. His spirit, often seen by disoriented staffers on the brink of mental collapse, was heard to utter such jewels of wisdom as Never rearrange Donna ' s filing system, and When are you people going to clean this place up? As usual, the ZT social event of the season was the Screaming Mimi Ball held .anthipanv Members Are: Scott (Go For It) Vanzandt Sondra (Get Bent) Lewis Ethan (How ' s Your Spanish Grade?) Porter Steve (Get a REAL Job)Norman Donna (Check Out My Rock) Spencer Cedric (III Shoot It) Wilson Melissa (Don ' t Give Me Captions) Robbins Tonda (Give Me Something To Do) Brewer Chris (I GOT a Real Job) Carothers Mary Lynn (I Need Stories) Caldwell Lou (III Have it Later) Carmichael Ruth (I Can Write it) Turner Chuck (Wanna Buy a Shirt) Schrimsher in the Pandemonium Room of the Riverbottom Club. Music for this gala event was made possible by Steve Norman ' s connections with Foxy Roxy ' s Banana Boat Band, who offered rousing renditions of such songs as Just-A-Swanging and La Cucar acha. Another highlight of the year was the presentation of the Frog of the Year award. This award is given to a staff member who has made an unique contri- bution to the book, thereby securing Zanthiphany ' s existence for at least another year. This year the award was shared by Tonda Brewer, whose alert attention to detail enabled her to spot the first mistake leading to the infamous Indexgate, and Ethan Porter, whose prolific writing ability has helped him to capture the record of most bylines in a single section. Well, when all ' s been said and done (and hopefully turned in), Zanthiphany and its legacy will still live on as long as there is space to fill. All that we, the ZT members of 1983-84, have to say is: Don ' t ask us— we just work here. 318 Zanthiphany 1NTERFRATERNITY COUNCIL R. Maurice Hottingsworth-President Lee Conley- Vice President of Public Relations Mike Orians- Treasurer Greg Singleton-Secre flo ' Tommy Svoboda- Vice President of Rush The Interfraternity Councl. A place where Greeks have met since 1949 to share common problems and concerns. And a forum for communication and cooperation among members of the Greek community. That is how Council president R. Maurice Hollings- worth sees it. And he hopes the 10 member chapters agree. The Council works closely with the Panhellenic and the Pan-Hellenic Councils and sponsors activities of its own as well. This year members held a boatride during Homecoming and worked on Greek Week. They also sponsored the Sleeky Greek Fashion show held in the spring term. Officers are proud that their member chapters raised over $30,000 to support various philanthropies, including the United Cerebral Palsy and Cystic Fibrosis drives. The Council requires a 2.0 grade point verage and awards citations for the highest chapter GPA, the highest active GPA and the highest pledge GPA. Other officers include Lee Conley, vice president for public relations; Tommy Svoboda, vice president of rush; Mike Orians, treasurer and Greg Singleton, secretary.

Photo Services does all photo work for University publications, information offices and academic departments. Included in that domain are application and passport pictures as well as portraits. ID photos are a major effort for the department, since the beginning of each semester finds hundreds of new students scrambling for that magic plastic-coated card.

The theme of the book was loosely carried as Better Than Ever, highlighting the change in emphasis of the book to a new, more modern copy oriented format. Colophon 331 1984: Is Big Brother Here? Yes, it was finally the year. Long awaited by two generations of Americans, it was finally 1984. George Orwell ' s 1949 bestseller was a smashing hit again as people drained reprints from local bookstores all over the country, and Memphis was no exception. English teachers met the challenge with vigor; the classic was well integrated into political science, communication studies, philosophy, history, technology. ..all did their part to focus on the Orwellean prophecy and to compare and contrast with that was actually occurring in this year of Big Brother. Were we to ignore the significance of 1984 we might escape criticism this year while there ' s plenty of discussion on the topic. But we are a yearbook, and a permanent record of what happened at Memphis State in 1984 . So, we ' ll have a shot too. George Orwell ' s 1984 has not come to be, not in the world as far as we know, not in America or Memphis and certainly not at Memphis State University. Still, there are comparisons: We do not have telescreens that watch us, but we have televisions sets we watch. There has been a rejuvination of interest in soap operas - afternoon serial dramas which draw a mixed audience of male and female viewers. The characters and plots are so involving some students simply will not schedule classe s during their soap. Prime-time, night hits are: Dynasty Dallas, and Hotel (all soaps); Remington Steel, Night Rider and The A-Team (action- drama); and Cheers and Three ' s Company (situation comedies). Winston Smith, 1984 hero, hated doing his morning exercises, but was afraid not to. Today exercising is in great vogue with numerous tapes and records to put people through their paces. Jane Fonda ' s exercise record rivaled Michael Jackson ' s Thriller album as a number 1 hit. On campus, aerobic dance classes are filled as even MSU football squad gets into step with the rhythm.

ROTHER n w m A , i unci listening tool He wants to know that yog plan to attend the 1984 Association for Education In Journalism and Mass Communication (AEJMG) convention from August 6 through August B, 1 904 it will ha hosted by the College of Journalism and Communications, University ot Florida, Gainesville, Florida 3201 1. It you are not ptennlng to attend the convention, |ust where will you be? Everyone has to be somewhere, on As endless rows of Eurasian soldiers marched onward in the background, Winston Smith and co-workers took out their aggressions on the screen image of arch-enemy Goldstein during their daily Two Minute Hate . Today we have Alien video arcade games; Pac Man, Centipede, Defenders, Ms. Pac Man , Astroids and a host of popular quarter-eaters to bang and bruise in the University Center basement. In 1984, Newspeak was Big Brother ' s new language of INGSOC. Winston Smith, in the Ministry of Truth, was familiar with words such as doubleplusungood (extreme- ly unsatisfactory), fullwise (in full), upsub (submit to a higher authority), and antefiling (before filing). Today we systemitize almost everything so when it impacts on it, the mind, will not be boggled. A revenue enhancement program is taxes, a disruptive reentry system is the Titan 11 Missile and a destabilizing action is a war. Winston Smith used a dictaphone called a speakwrite. Today we have computers that talk to us and we are on the verge of having home computers that will understand, at least enough to write, what we say to them. George Orwell seems to have predicted more reliance upon the printed word than we have today. In 1984, the word is quickly becoming electronic. 332 Closing - 1984 Pholo by Clay Scrugp Photo b J.

Scott Vanzandt In the book, people attended the flicks which had military themes and portrayed graphic violence. Consider the recent vintage Blue Thunder, Scarface, and Sudden Impact, among a rash of tremendously popular horror thrillers which leave little mayhem to the imagination. Julia, Winston ' s lover, operated a machine which produced the plots of novels in a fiction-writing department in the Ministry of Truth. Today, the latest electronic entertainment from Infocom is computer disks with names such as Witness, Zork, Infidel, Deadline, and Enchanter. The home computer operator can spend a day creating a mystery novel which unfolds only when the detective makes decisions. There are many similarities between Orwell ' s technological predictions warnings and the world as we know it (if we are willing to stretch reality a bit.) But his world of 1984 is certainly vastly different than the one we know. We believe technological advancements have improved the lives of humans. Most of our personal experience with science is through devices that have made chores more simple, improved medical care, provided knowledge about the universe, increased our leisure time and extended our freedoms. Consider: Today the use of a slide rule is taught as if the instrument was an abacus. Science, engineering, math and statistics majors consider the device primitive compared with their electronic calculators. Computer literacy is in. ..in fact it is the law. Youngsters are considered illiterate if they do not understand elementary computer programming by the end of junior high school. Robotics was successfully demonstrat- ed in 1983 as a labor-saving (and manu- Photo by Clay Scruggs facturing cost saving) concept with a full line of welding robots at the Nissen assembly plant in New Smyrna, Tenn. Early in 1984, Schering-Plough, home- based in Memphis, was awarded FDA permission to manufacture interferon using genetic grafting. Health science centers in Memphis have successfully experimented with liver and bone marrow transplants, and we are in the early stages of laser surgery. In all, the technological advances are impressive. But perhaps the most satisfying realization is that most have improved life. Even as the economy fluctuates between recession and recovery (which it certainly has in the last year), we have the impression that the quality of life is better now than it has ever been in the past, and Memphis State University itself is tangible evidence of that improvement. Education has been the solution for many of the past ' s problems and inequities. Today that truism is more widely accepted among all peoples. It is emphasized at every graduation ceremony when families of MSU graduates offer a collective cheer for the first member to earn a college degree. It is felt by every freshman who forestalls earning a quick wage to work toward a more satisfying, more worthwhile contribution that might be made a little later. These are the attitudes of 1984. Whether we credit Orwell with producing only an interesting fantasy, chide him for being mistaken about the direction the world was going or cheer him for providing a warning to leaders of the 1950 ' s, we are blessed that progress has not taken us into his 1984 totalitarian nightmare. We have to be glad he chose to do it to the fictional Winston Smith and thankful that in some small way his work may have us closer toward the freedoms we cherish todav. Closing - 1984 335 Editor ' s Note As 1 watch the final few pages of this book finally go to press, 1 cannot help but reminisce a bit. Coming into a job such as editing the DeSoto in mid-stream is not easy, but the book is finished, and for that fact I must thank everyone who helped me through the rough times. It is a well known fact around the office (sometimes too well known) that 1 did not want the job when it was offered to me; but I accepted it and felt compelled to complete what 1 had started. There is a great deal of work involved in putting out a publication of this size, and no one person could ever hope to succeed without a tremendous amount of assistance. Sondra, as my assistant editor and as my friend, you have without doubt been one of the most important factors in my keeping my sanity throughout the year. I could always count on you to be there at those times at which 1 needed either a warm shoulder to cry on or a swift boot. I know that we have had some bad times in the past and will have more in the future, but 1 will always choose to remember the great times which we spent together. You have given me a lifetime of fun, albeit often bizzare fun, in the time we have known each other. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I will be around if you ever need anything always and forever. Tonda, you have given me so much more than you could ever know. You were there to help me pick up the pieces and go on when 1 wasn ' t sure that 1 could, and your sense of humor your adorable smile gave me that extra push to get through many days which seemed insurrmountable. The work you did compiling the index might not seem very significant to some; however, I realize the countless hours which were spent indexing when you really had better things to do. Also, even though your bylines were left off more of your stories than they were put on, we both know that you wrote the Anchor Splash copy. And who could forget the AFROTC page ' . ' Ihank you so much for all those times when you asked is there anything I can do to help ' ' You did more than you know by just being there. Cedric, what can 1 really say? What is a yearbook without pictures? Not much if you asked me (then, as a photographer 1 may be a bit prejudiced), but thanks to you we will never know. You were always on hand when those times came that a picture just had to be shot and there was no one around to shoot it. But more than that, you were a good friend throughout the year. I wish that there were some way in which I could repay you for all the good times you brought my way - even if your jokes are usually gross. Thanks for being around. Steve, you were one of the saving aspects of this year. Not only did you do the academics section; but also, you jumped in and did the greeks. A great deal of any credit which comes to this book rightfully belongs to you. Your work was very vital to the production of this DeSoto 1 wish that 1 could list all the work you did, but the space on this page does not allow it. Your sense of humor brought a certain, off-the-wall vitality to the staff, and 1 will always remember the allnighters ' ' which you helped me through. Thanks for the memories, and best of luck as a Kappa Sigma Ethan, you stepped in to save the sports section after it had a rough start, but you dove in and started writing almost without question. We have had our differences in the past, and I ' m sure we will have more; however, 1 think we ' ll make it through them. 1 haven ' t had as much of a chance to show you the real me as 1 would have liked, but the pressure from all sides just kept pushing. Thank you for everything. You helped make this book possible. Mary Lynn, we too have had ou disagreements, but then hasn ' t everyone You are one of the few staff members wh was here before this fiasco of a year begar We knew more of what to expect than dii the new people on the staff, but even w could not predict that it would turn out lik it did! I hope that you won ' t take anythin which was said or done to heart. I certainl won ' t. Feeling are so brittle at times Thank you for staying around and helpin to see this book to completion. Melissa, you got the organizations sectio: finished; and even though you may feel a though you didn ' t do that much on th section yourself, it was done while yoi were in charge of it. That is more thai anyone else can say. Thank you for stickim out the year with me and staying all thos hours when you could have been at home Mrs. Morrison, you have done so muc more than should have been asked of an advisor. Your hours of dedicated wor have not gone unappreciated, and I hop that you will not look upon this year wit only bad memories. This was your firs year as our advisor, and we all know that i wasn ' t easy. Without your undying willing ness to work on the book, it never wouf have come to be. Thank you for everything 1 only wish there was something 1 could d to show my gratitude. 1 know that 1 must have left at leas someone out, but at this thirteenth hour my memory is not as keen as it should be therefore, to the countless numbers o| people who also helped to produce thi:j book, 1 say thank you, and I ' m sorry then wasn ' t room to list everything you did. This year has been an unforgetabli experience for me. Not only did I learn ; great deal, but also, 1 had the opportunit; to meet many new, interesting people wh 1 might not have otherwise met. 1 wil always treasure my time as DeSoto editor 336 Editors Note University of the 80s 1984 DeSoto B tfa, l(U+ cv n. m , i .. . ,.„ , , i in i .i ,. , , ii i i. . - ... ..
