It was times like these that made you think back to that infamous day in high school. The day you proudly an- © nounced, ‘‘I’m going to college at Michigan Tech.'’ The puzzled looks on your friends’ - faces told you that you needed to supply — more information. ‘‘you know ... where that peninsula sticks out into Lake Superior?”” Their puzzled looks turned to ones of ‘‘You’ fe. crazy!’ So began your path of decision mak- ing which led to racking your brain in. the glo of a 75 watt light bulb at fs ori ‘in hve morning In six and a half short hours that big test had become history, the paper was successfully turned in, and the quiz unfor- tunately flagged. The grade became only a red mark in some professor's grade book. The jumble of facts, figures, graphs, and notes, which had been float- ing between your ears that night were finally filed away in their appropriate spots, waiting to be recalled at some later date. That all too familier phrase, ‘I’m SO confused!’’, was put to rest until the next late night session. Now came relaxation time, time to ‘blow off.’ But what? Or where? Some may have hiked up to the SDC for a bout with the weights, some may have headed for the ‘Dog- house’ for a brew and others may have even retreated to their neglect- ed beds to sleep off the nightmare. Sooner or later though, all Tech stu- dents turned to the most plentiful source of releace around, the beauty of the Upper Peninsula. Just outside the door was many times the needed inspiration to keep going. A walk downtown or a Copper Country Cruise usually provided enough of a release to come back and hit the books again. Some may have forgot- ten how to integrate by parts, com- pute the Gross National Product, or calculate the moment about a line, but the sights of the Keweenaw will always be vivid in our minds. Tech spirit came alive outdoors in many different ways, some quite sensible, most approaching the bi- Zarre. Many opportunities throughout the year allowed stu- dents the chance to get out and show their Tech pride. Kewenaw Day (K-Day) gave stu- dents their first break from studies or, as the case may have been, the chance to turn over a new leaf and Start studying. Sporting events of- ten promised a suspence filled afternoon or evening. Egged on by the pep band and the faithful hus- kie mascott, students let it be known whom they thought was number one. Homecoming allowed the individuality of Tech to shine through. People went out and scoured the peninsula in hopes of finding the perfect hobo outfit. Many put these outfits to good use with the week’s worth of events, dances and parties. The long haul of studying needed to survive till Winter Carnival was considered to be well worth it. Instead of donning hobo clothes, most wore the warmest and dryest garments they could lay their hands on. The combination of snow, visiting friends, and good old Tech origi- nality combined to produce a fun- filled week for just about everyone. With Spring came the annual spring parties, the near end of the school year, and the possibility of saying, ‘‘| survived another year at MTU.”’ pat ek bs In RRER i SS Re The Autumn of eighty-three was said to have been the most brilliant in thirty years. The weather was warm, the sky often clear and the trees were a blaze of color. Whether it was the view from Whealkate or from atop the ME-EM building, the beauty was there for everyone to take advantage of. Snow blanketed the area for al- most five months of the school year. Even if the winter months were harsh and unmerciful, the beauty of a fresh fallen snow could not be overlooked. A road trip up the peninsula could produce some spectacular sights. From Eagle harbor to the places you had to hunt to find; like a snow cushioned waterfall or a piece of artwork set in ice, the scenery often brought a release that a drift in front of your backdoor just couldn't do. Finally, the ice and snow moved out, not to return until the next winter. Hints of summer turned into reality. Waves were free to roam where they pleased, flowers were beginning to bloom, life was returning to the Copper Country. With the melting of the snow and the rising of the temperatures, came a time for new decisions and directions. It was a time to either steer away from Tech or a time to become remotivated and recharged. Each had to make this decision. Each had to pick their own direction. 15 i | ! be i BS } : : i Just what is it that makes Michigan Technological University someplace special? An institution of higher learning, ‘“‘Tech.'’ has an esteemed reputation as being among the country’s most no- table engineering schools. The fact that Tech. is so well known reflects the quality faculty members that are read- ily at the students disposal. The caliber of students that attend Tech. must not be overlooked. Highly motivated, students here at the Uni- versity are eager to learn and find Tech. an enticing challenge. Nestled in the hills of the picturesque Keweenaw Peninsula, the location of the university makes Tech. someplace special. Although Houghton is far away from the nightclubs and city life of downstate, its ‘‘hometown”’ atmo- sphere creates an appealing environ- ment in which to live. Amidst all of the strains and confu- sion surrounding this special place, ev- eryone involved with ‘‘Tech.”’ still are proud to say, ‘‘l’m a Huskie.” — copy by Ronda Hall 18 Student Life Michigan Techological someplace stu ThE wade Sia spcpearpeny ascoeition Ronda Hall prepares for a long night of studying.

Special Hopefully this Dodgeville resident does not have an 8:00 A.M. class. From the first days of the school year when students had the hassles of moving, getting settled in their new ‘homes’, registering and dropping classes, rearranging schedules, buying books, paying tuition, phone bills and rent, and the many other tasks stu- dents had to deal with through the bill paying period, the sun was tempting students to blow off classes. Winter term’s grades were a disaster, so stu- dents tried desperately to bring up their GPA in order to get back the scholarships lost. The pressure was building! All around, other students were selling cars, stereos and such in order to pay their final tuition bill. With all these hassles and pressures one began to wonder: Why go to col- lege? Consider the alternatives. Get- ting a job? Come now, be realistic, with the economy as it was the probability was low. Join the armed services? Maybe but that was not for everyone. So it came down to a very basic fact, students went to college to get an edu- cation in order to obtain an interesting, high paying job. The bright future which awaited helped pull students through the hassles of college. — copy by Pam Johnson tudent Life Confusion In Progress ... Phone bills, tuition bills ... will it never end?

Student Life 21 lé Cramming — Is It Worth It “Oh my gosh, the calculas exam is tomorrow!”’ All week long the ultimate student sin, procrastination, was com- mitted. Every other class but calculas seemed more important at the time. Afterall, there was ‘‘four whole days” to study for it. Now the night before had crept up and three weeks of read- ing still needed to be completed. Reso- lutely, the books, notes, ‘‘scoop’’, and most importantly caffeine were pulled out. It was time for the dreaded _all- nighter, where several weeks of infor- mation were crammed into an over- wrought brain in one night. Staggering to classes the next day exhausted and mind still on the upcoming test, perfor- mances in other classes suffered due to lack of sleep. Throughout the day, spare moments were snatched, trying to memorize the never ending lists of formulas, rules, and tables. The time had arrived! Fueled by even more caffeine, the last minute effort to review all the material began. Was it worth it? Surely not when a substan- dard ‘‘C ’ or below appeared at the top of the test instead of an ‘‘A”’ or ‘‘B”’ that could have been earned. Suddenly it hit, one found himself behind in all his other classes; another bout of ‘‘cram- ming’ was on the horizon. The vicious cycle never ended. — copy by Pam Johnson rf il fe Confusion.

The Other Side Of The Coin Apartment living — a change of pace The main objective in enrolling in col- lege was to acquire the skills for a par- ticular career, however, there was an- other side of this coin. When attending school away from home, students learned what life was like living on their own, whether it was up in Daniel Heights, off-campus or in the dorms. Additional responsibilities were placed as : on individuals that they may not neces- Mig c2 fh 4 ese | | sarily have been accustomed to. Sure- s ly, most people had done a load of wash every now and then, but had this been a consistent obligation? There was also a room or house to be kept clean, bills to be paid, groceries to be bought (if the financial situation was stable) and yes, in the midst of all this, homework had to be done. College life may sound hectic, how- ever, in the long run, it made people much more able to budget time wisely and handle the pressures that will un- doubtedly be encountered once col- lege is over. — copy by Ronda Hall Hallboards are a familiar sight in the dorms John Emmel does Monday's dishes and Tuesday's and Wednesday's and ...

SPRING PICNIC A y Ever wonder what life behind the doors of M.T.U.’s Daniel Heights was like? What extra responsibilities did matrimony place on one’s life from day to day? How did this lifestyle effect the studies? Moderately priced apartments owned and operated by the university, Daniel Heights catered to the needs of Tech.'s married couples quite well. For residents of the ‘‘Heights’’, M.T.U. ren- dered such services as a daycenter for children, maintenance repairs upon re- quest, washers and dryers at the resi- dents’ disposal, and the accessibility of cleaning supplies upon request, just to name a few. However, even with these accomodations, married couples faced many additional responsibilities. Among these responsibilities were the upkeep of a house, maintaining communication with one’s spouse, and in some cases the rearing of a child. With a child, parents had to find a baby- sitter whenever they wished to go out. Nothing was ever done spontaneously! It was not feasible to simply pick-up and go. Perhaps the things married couples learned to do best were juggle time and budget incomes with respect to a family. How did this lifestyle effect one’s studies? With rigorous schedules and faced with the pressure placed upon students, many couples find it virtually impossible for both husband and wife to go to school full time and remain financially stable. The alternative was for one to work part time and go to “Proud Papa” Joel Urbanial with his son school part time while the other car- Frank. ried a full load of classes. Ideally, after one partner earned his degree, the other would continue on and earn theirs. Although married couples encoun- tered many stresses, the delight of watching a family prosper greatly outweighed them. , — copy by Ronda Hall Escaping the rigors of studying, this Tech. family enjoys an afternoon bike ride. 28 Student Life — | Strolling through the ‘‘Heights”’.

Student Life 29 Breaking Away When one broke away from the dorms, they began to experience the real meaning of indepen- dence. Although living off-campus meant having to cart your clothes to and from the laundrymat or having to walk a mile to school, this life style had definite advan- tages. For some it signified added privacy and meant not having to share a bathroom with twenty other people. Living off-campus offered the choice of eating around a busy schedule instead of having to schedule around eating. Other benefits included not hav- ing to worry about being too loud for fear of being reprimanded and not having the feeling of being on campus 24 hours a day. Although living off-campus entailed more responsibilities, most felt the in- dependence was well worth it. — copy by Theresa Sienkowski All by himself, Greg Putvin finishes up dinner. NER Be rs t e VA A game of pool acts as a distraction from studying. Relaxing in the Union are Karl Lapeer, Brad Steusloff. Unfortunately, relying on cars to get to campus is not always a good idea. Next to grades, phone bills are most dreaded. Student Life At one point in time, almost every- one has experienced dorm life, that unique type of lifestyle that goes with college. Although many may frown upon dorm life, it offered people dis- tinct advantages. When freshmen entered college, they were usually a little scared and did not know very many people. Dorm life broke the ice quickly. Soon the ritual of going from room to room meeting peo- ple began. Frequently those friends ac- quired in these first few weeks are the friends that one kept throughout the years. Living in the dorms, every day was an adventure! Where else did one dodge from their room to the bath- room, curlers in hair and bathrobe donned, hoping to avoid the gaze of the neighboring hall, fight one’s way to the mailboxes or eat that delicious fire- man’s casserole for lunch? Among the other notable advantages this lifestyle possessed were the amount of people living in the dorms, their location and the financial set up. With all of the people around, a person was rarely lonely. Help with homework is always available if needed and study- ing was much more fun with company. Being close to campus, residents of the dorm not have to make a long trek into Campus each day. Once one pays their one bill at the beginning of each term, their finances were taken care for the remainder of that term. Dorm life was “easy,’’ everything was pretty well tak- en care of for residents. All in all, living in the dorms was a beneficial experience.

On less frequent occa- sions, a resident assistant, “‘R.A.”, might hear questions like, “Do you want to go to a movie?” ‘‘Play basket- ball?”’ Being a R.A. is not a nine to five job. R.A.’s are students, counselors, com- municators, role models, and discipli- narians all in one. R.A.'’s go through workshops in empathy, assertiveness, alcohol awareness, and communica- tion skills and receive on the job train- ing. Not only do R.A.'s get first-hand experience in dealing with many types of people, but they also have a sense of security in knowing that their room and board is paid for. However, too often R.A.’s get labeled the ‘‘bad guys’’. All in all, being a R.A. is a beneficial experience and gives people confi- dence in facing the ‘‘real world”’ after college. — copy by Anne Castle Alka-Hall’s R.A. Jerry Morley fulfills one of his duties. More Than Just Nine To Five More Than Friends Roommates were probably the most important people met when going to school. Thrown in a little cubby hole of a room, roommates experienced col- lege life together. There was a sharp contrast from living with one’s own family and living at college, so adjust- ments were frequentl y made together. Allowances and compromises were made because it was very important in maintaining a happy ‘‘home away from home” atmosphere. Right from the be- ginning, decisions had to be made about many things, building lofts and figuring out who will sleep where, just to name a few. In actuality, roommates formed a miniature family. Throughout the school year, roommates could be found doing numerous things together such as eating dinner in the dorm or if living off-campus, preparing those GUN! ‘‘gourmet’’ dinners, studying late nights and perhaps even surviving the. same exams. Roommates helped each other in becoming more knowledge- — able not only about school but about life. Even when times got rough, room- mates always had a shoulder to cry on. In good times they shared each others happiness. Roommates were part-tim fathers and mothers, watching out for one when they slipped and catching one when they fall. Throughout the year roommates be- came an integral part of each others life and mature together. Even when not getting along, roommates learned to cope and try to understand one an- others feelings. In the end, friendships developed that will continue on past college life. — copy by Susan Pogasic Taking out their aggressions on each other are roommates, Susan Pogasic, Michelle Dwyer, Ronda Hall.

Here at MTU many relationships differed slightly from those of other universities. One prime example was the classic case of the long distance romance. Now, what comes to mind when you think of long distance rela- tionships? That is right, the dreaded phone bill. The horrible five page pa- per that makes one’s hands sweat and checkbook hit bottom. For those who can not relate to this ter- ror, these relayed figures will make your head spin. During the fall term, the time when the loved one was missed the most, it costed approxi- mately $276.46 for one month. The next was a mere $214.56, and the following months brought the grand total for three terms up to $1,012,58. Of course that excluded stamps, cards and other paraphena- lia that money was spent on so quickly to express love. Of course the alternative to long distance relationships was to have a sweetheart here on campus. This dating scene was ‘‘seldom”’ boring. Where else could one go on a date at Fisher Hall for a total of only $2.50? Certainly not in Detroit! If one was really lucky during the week, they might get to take a physics exam together or study in the ‘‘privacy”’ of their dorm room. The “‘‘only’’ draw- back was the effect on the poor roommates. Not only did one walk around googly-eyed but also prob- ably kept the roommates up late at night even though one thought they were asleep. Relationships brought good times and beautiful memories. The need to have someone is tremendous, espe- cially at Tech. Companions gave one the stability and strength to survive the pressures of a rigorous curricu- lum. — copy by Susan Pogasic Student Lif e a7 Relaxation ... After a long, painful week of classes, everyone was ready to relax and enjoy the weekend. To some that may have meant getting to sleep, while to others it meant partying the nights (and days) away. In the fall, McClain State Park and K- day beckoned, as did Copper Country cruising, checking out the local hot- spots, the girls, and the guys. Parking lots were filled with frisbee and hacky- sack players. Football games, home- coming, the ‘‘Dog House’’, Lookout Point ... the list was endless. With the onset of winter, came more parties, hockey games, broomball, hit- ting the slopes of Mt. Ripley, and of course, Winter Carnival. MTU’s own Ft. Lauderdale sprouted behind Wadsworth Hall as soon as the temperature hit 45° F. Spring fever was evident by the large number of stu- dents that appeared around town and on the lawns of campus. It took a lot of motivation to keep studying when af- flicted with even the mildest case of the ‘‘fever’’. Once in a while one might have been able to steal an hour or two out of an evening to visit the SDC, go to a show, or visit a friend. Those precious mo- ments of free time were few and far between. Maybe that made our memo- ries more vivid and special. — copy by Sandi Ries 38 Student Life A Weekend Of Fun With an intense eye and a steady hand, this Tech. student indulges in a game of frisbee.

Copper Country cruising provided a lot of excitement to many weekeneds that might have otherwise been dull. With the tree leaves colored flaming shades of red, orange and yellow, the first trip of the year is usually to Copper Harbor and Brockway Mountain. ‘‘Refresh- ments’’, food and friends in hand, stu- dents spent hours traveling the winter roads of the beautiful Keweenaw Pen- insula. A little closer to home, ‘‘The Breakers’’ and Hungarian Falls sufficed as places to spend a few hours just being outdoors.

Comes Alive As Friday rolled around, academics seemed to fade into the background and suddenly planning the weekend's nightlife activities became the topmost priority, rather than studying for that - exam on Monday or starting the lab report that was due the following week. For the anxious type, Happy Hours were one way of starting the weekend off right. Others simply waited for that big party they had heard so much about during the week. While for oth- ers, the bars of Houghton and Hancock such as the Lodge, Garfield's, and Nu- tini’s, offered an alternative to the crowded party scene. The weekends, however, also pro- vide time for relaxation, such as catch- ing a movie at one of the local theaters or picking up a case at Jim’s and shar- | ing it with some friends. Whatever the plans for the weekend, once Sunday arrived, that exam on Monday seemed to take over your priorites again and the hold button on studies was once | again released! — copy by Theresa Sienkowski The usual ?

It is evi- dent that the dictionary definition of student life lacks the vitality in express- ing what it was all about! Functioning — attending classes, learning new ideas and skills, paying financial com- mitments, fending for one’s self. Exis- tence — meeting new people, forming valuable relationships, establishing moral standards, deciding what one wishes to gain out of life. Student life entailed much more than one can ex- press on paper. However, it is not sim- ply forgotten. Rather, it lives on in one’s memories. Remember waiting in line to cash Friday's paycheck, walking to class through four feet of snow, go- ing without food for a few days because the money had to be used to pay the heating bill, gretting everyone at St. Ig- nace’s McDonald’s on one of those long rides home, that night you did not get home until the next day and that friend that was always there when needed.

Student Life 47 K-Day 1983 was a day for everyone to enjoy and remember. The sun shone brightly on thousands of MTU students as they made their way out to McLain State Park by car, by bike, by bus, and even by boat. The air was filled with the greetings of old friends, many of whom hadn't seen each other in three long months. As in past years, K-Day held some- thing for everyone to enjoy. For the athletic types, there was volleyball, softball, football, and frisbee. For the very brave, there were the possibilities of skydiving and windsurfing. Refresh- ments were provided by IFC and there was more than enough food for all. The band ‘Cheeters’ provided music for those who were in the mood to dance or just listen. The beauty of Lake Supe- rior provided the backdrop for K-Day for the nature lover in all of us. This year’s K-Day was so much fun because there was something for each of us. As always, it was a pleasant diver- sion everyone seemed to need after the tough initial two weeks of classes. — Copy by Michele DaPra So Much Fun?

Another perfect pyramid. The Indianapolis 500 has nothing to fear from these competitors. Alot of hard work goes into homecoming competition. Homecoming at MTU means compe- tition in many forms. This year, the events included pyramids, tug of war, root beer chugging, and bed races. The competition was fierce but friendly. The overall winners were, in Class A, Phi Kappa Tau, in Class B, La Maison Maggots, in Class C, Sigma Kappa Upsi- lon Mu, and in Class D, Archtic Attic. Their victories were the result of end- less practices (or maybe just last ditch attempts.) But, no matter if the con- testants came away victorious or end- ed up covered with mud, they still ad- ded something to the spirit of MTU’s Homecoming 1983. — Copy by Michele DaPra Homecoming 55 What makes MTU's homecoming unique from other campus’ homecom- ings? Hobos! Where else but at Michi- gan Tech would the word homecoming bring to mind images of trips to St. Vinnies to find baggy pants, torn shirts, flowered ties, old hats, and even smelly cigars? At MTU alone, the hobos reign supreme over the weekend's festivi- ties. They began their takeover of cam- pus this year on Thursday night at the Hobo Mixer at Dee Stadium. Danny and the Demons provided the backdrop for the ‘high society’ hobos of MTU. Fol- lowing tradition, the hobos’ next mass appearance was on Friday for the homecoming competition in which all competitors and spectators wore their ‘best’ hobo attire. The customary hobo parade on Saturday morning topped off a truly ‘ragged’ weekend. The streets of Houghton and Hancock were flooded with hobos representing every type of student at Tech: the dorms, fraternities, sororities, and, of course, the pep band. But, after homecoming ended, the hobo clothes were put away until next year’s return trip to St. Vin- ASS — Copy by Michele DaPra | Homecoming Very Memorable ig co Jim Allen shows some true hobo spirit.

The five lovely young ladies vying for homecoming queen this year were Jill Asiala, sponsered by Delta Sigma Phi, Laurie Biederman, sponsered by Alpha Gamma Delta, Kathy Drakos, sponsered by Das Lowen Haus, Tracy Small, sponsered by Sigma Phi Spsilon, and Paula Stefanelli, sponsered by Alpha Sigma Tau. The girls had a very busy week and weekend, riding in the parade, competing in the Queen's Superstar competi- tion, being interviewed, and competing in the Burger King puck shoot at Saturday night's hockey game. The most important moment came though, at halftime of the Husky football game where the queen and her court were an- nounced and congratulated by last year’s queen Sue De- man. This year, Kathy Drakos was named queen and her court, in order, was Jill Asiala, Tracy Small, Laurie Bieder- man, and Paula Stefanelli. — Copy by Michele DaPra Homecoming 61 Se The POR is the Budweiser Press on Regardless PRO rally.

Michigan Tech's first play of the year, ‘‘Baby Blue’’, was presented on in November. The play employed Sha- kesperian poetry to display the fanta- sies and reality of the main character Baby Blue. Because of its use of poet- ry, and the fact that it was much less structured than modern plays, ‘‘Baby Blue’’ was considered an experimental play. It was directed by Professor Rich- ard Blanning. The set, lights, costumes, and make-up were designed by techni- cal director Charles Wise. — Copy by Anne Castle ——— .

Class of 2002 at MTU?? More beautiful and exotic scenes from Cosmopolitan night. Please —— don't shoot! + iF) What Makes M.T.U.’s The bands at MTU are unique for several reasons. First, there are no music majors at Tech. All the musicians in- volved in the symphonic, jazz, and infamous pep band are just “‘Techies’”’ who enjoy making beautiful music. Each of the three bands has its own unique qualities. Symphonic band which goes on tour every year, is for the serious, traditional musician. Under the direction of Professor Mi- chael Griffith, symphonic band does indeed make beautiful music. The jazz lab band, under the leadership of Don Ker- anen gives many concerts throughout the year to showcase their vast talents. They also play at the Sno ball and Bandar- ama during Winter Carnival. Last, but certainly not least, the pep band is an integral part of the sports scene at Tech. What would a hockey game be without the strains of ‘‘no beer”’ or the Copper Country Anthem played by nearly 200 people in striped bibs and bright gold sweatshirts. All three of Tech’s bands are unique in very special ways. — Copy by Michele DaPra Who is that masked man?? Eyes rivited on the director, this symphonic band member waits for his next part. The mellow sound of a sax is one of the many trademarks of the jazz band. Some pep band members are a little stranger than others. Jazz, blues, you name it, the MTU jazz band can play it. Ricky, Mikey, and Don, the fearless leaders of the pep, symphonic, and jazz bands at Tech. ? i ‘ : i e = ; An exotic dance performance by Vijay Patel impressed both judges and audi- ence and helped earn him the title of Mr. MTU, 1984. The Mr. MTU contest, held in early March, is an annual event sponsored by the Alpha Gamma Delta sorority. All proceeds from this event were given this year to the Juvenile Diabetes Association. Contestants, sponsored by different campus organizations, were selected from seventeen candidates by a student money vote. The ten biggest money earners competed in categories which included a long john and hiking boots contest, talent performances, and a formal wear competition. Judges were chosen by the Alpha Gamma Delta Sorority, and included some professors and sorority advisors. Both judges and audience were treated to a variety of talent performances such as first runner up imitation of Michael Jackson, a banjo performance, a comedy act, and a number of other humorous performances. This year, over $1200 in other proceeds were donated to the Juvenile Diabetes Association. — Copy by Tracie Black Lee Me RL Cs dene nae are. rn puree HT F BARBER SH Mr. MTU Vijay Patel entertained the audience with an exotic dance.

For four days (or more) books are set aside and the emphasis is on fun! There is something for everyone to enjoy during carnival. One can stroll around and look at the beautiful statues, take a horse- drawn sleigh ride, cheer on the hockey Huskies, or dance the night away at the Snoball. Many students take advan- tage of this opportunity to show Tech off to their family and friends. The only real problem with Winter Carnival is that it is over much too soon. — Copy by Michele DaPra Winter Carnival Carnival Mean?

From the opening phrase of the first song, Bandarama is a non-stop va- riety of classical, pop, and jazz tunes, played by MTU'’s finest, the symphonic band, the jazz lab band, and the Husky pep band. The music never stopped as the spotlight switched from band to band. One minute the audience was be- ing delighted by the strains of a piccolo solo, and the next, they were being rocked by a powerful arrangement of Asia's ‘‘Only Time Will Tell.”’ This show- case of the super-talented musicians of Tech, held on the Sunday before Win- ter Carnival, officially kicked off Carny in style. — Copy by Michele DaPra Bandarama Winter Carnival Means ag What goes into building a snow statue? A lot of planning, time, and hard work. But, the results are worth all the hours put in, all the frozen hands and feet, all the lost hours of studying. This year, the theme was ‘‘Legends and Myths in Snowy Drifts.’’ Class A was won by Delta Sigma Phi's salute to the Olympics-''776 B.C.-1984, The Olympic Legends Car- ry On.”’ Second place went to Tau Kappa Epsilon, third to Phi Kappa Tau, fourth to Sigma Tau Gamma, and fifth to Phi Kappa Theta. In class B, Eden House's statue ’’A Legendary Man Carved This Superior Land.’’ Second place went to Sigma Kappa Upsilon Mu, third to Mama’s Boys, fourth to Alpha Phi Omega and fifth to House of Lords. In class C, Army ROTC’s “‘The Sword in the Snow”’ took top honors followed by Apathy House, St. Al’s, Wesley House, and AC- S AIChE pluPLU. Class D was taken by ‘‘Chariot of the God- ices’ Alpha Sigma Tau’s entry. They were followed by Alpha Gamma Delta, Grand Central Station, Corner Pocket, and Delta Zeta. Last, but certainly not least, the one-nighter competition was won by Rammitt Inn with their entry ‘‘Lord of the Rinks’’. The remaining places went to 2103 Woodmar, Temple of Nemesis, The Shipmates, and BYOB. — Copy by Michele DaPra snow Statues pers Snow Statues The Olympic Legends Carry On — Delta Sigma Phi’s winning statue in class A.

The Tech Arts Festival helps to change this imbalance. Encouraging participation in the Arts, Tech Arts Festival brings a number of cultural events to campus and also seeks to increase awareness of Arts opportunities already at the University. Jazz was the highlight of the two week long Arts Festival this year. The dance troupe ‘“‘Jazzin’ '' along with beginning and advanced jazz classes, gave a special free performance during the festival. In the Calumet Theatre, Eddie Russ ’n Friends along with Wendall Harrison opened for ‘‘The Electrifyin’ Eddie Harrie,’’ a nationally known star of the jazz world. The TAF main event gave beginners and advanced dancers the opportunity to learn more about jazz dance from profes- sionals. ‘‘Gus Giordano: Jazz Dance Chicago,”’ a world renown dance company held dance workshops and later gave a performance of modern jazz dance. For those not interested in jazz, the Arts Festival featured a large number of other cultural events. A student art exhibition was shown and awards were made in categories which included: painting and drawing, other media, black and white photography, and color photography. A fine line drawing demonstration and a pottery workshop were a part of the festival. The Memoria Union sponsored student coffeehouses which features talented students of the Copper Country. Fel Films were an important aspect of this year’s festival and included a showing of the epic film Napoleon, presentation of ‘‘Kagemusha”’ (a tale of survival in 16th century Japan), and continuous showing of classics and favorites in Mu Beta Psi’s ‘Underground Film Festival.’’ Other events included a discussion on robotics by a consultant to ‘‘Omni ’ Magazine, a square dance, a Cosmopolitan Night, and even a juggling workshop. — Copy by Tracie Black The essence of Arts at Tech.

This twenty-four hour dance-a-thon was held this year, as every year to benefit the MDA.

The Biological sciences are the sciences of life and as such, are at the center of the technological revolution. The Department of Biological Sciences at MTU offers a curriculum that com- bines traditional biology with the quan- titative approach that is essential to modern biology-based technologies. A ‘“‘hands-on ’ approach to the study of biology is achieved through the depart- ment's well equipped laboratory facili- ties and small class sizes. The depart- ment is a nationally recognized leader in the use of microcomputers in under- graduate biology education. After the first two years of general studies, students can select an option in biochemistry-microbiology-physiol- ogy, prehealth, environmental biolo- gy ecology, or bioengineering. The de- partment offers the B.S. degree in both Biological Sciences and Medical Tech- nology, and M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Biological Sciences. Professors are ac- § tively involved in a variety of research projects and undergraduates often have the opportunity to participate. Special student activities within the department are numerous. The Biol- ogy Honor Society, Rhi Sigma, sup- ports undergraduate research awards to seniors for senior projects. The stu- dents of the Medical Technology Club make laboratory presentations at local high schools each year, and they have won ‘Tech Is'’ two years in a row. These activities, along with the excel- lent “hands-on” learning opportunities provided by the Biological Department help make job placement outlook good for Biological Sciences graduates.

Because of the board de- mand for civil engineers’ services from all segments of business and all levels of governments, the U.S. Department of Labor forecasts moderate to steady growth in the field through the 1980's. There are about 700 students study- ing civil engineering at Michigan Tech. Using well-equipped laboratories, they study hydraulics, sanitary engineering, materials testing, and structural engi- neering. They also have access to the computer center and to the simulation laboratory.

Seaman Mineralogical Museum began as areference mineral collection for the students of the Michigan Mining School. It later grew to include showy specimens for public display. A ma- jority of the collection was organized by Profes- sor A.E. Seaman (Professor of Mineralogy 1893- 1928) assisted by state geologist Dr. L.L. Hub- bard (1883-1913). Many collections have been added by other professors and alumni and later by Wyllys A. Seaman and Dr. Sprioff. The current museum is organized into helpful sections. The East Wing is based on Textbook Identification used at the mineral sciences. Min- erals are grouped by chemical composition, structural properties, and the classification by J.D. Dana. There are smaller exhibits of rocks from over one billion years old up to the recent eruption of Mt. St. Helens. Near the lounge there is a special fluorescent display of minerals and some specimens of lake superior iron deposits. The west wing features collections acquired by the museum from private collectors. There are many fine crystals, lipidary exhibits and excellent copper country minerals. The museum is open for public visitation with- out charge Monday-Friday, 9 A.M. to 4:30 P.M. except holidays, and staff is ready to assist on any questions. A Students visits the display.

Programs have evolved for specialization in Biomedical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Systems and Control, Cummunica- tions, and Microwave Engineering. The many Electrical Engineering laborato- ries feature sophisticated devices for testing and experimentation in the above areas and many others. Graduates with degrees in Electrical Engineering are well qualified to pursue challenging careers in a variety of in- dustries and agencies, and career op- portunities are virtually limitless. For those who wish to further their educa- tion, Michigan Tech offers an outstand- ing graduate studies program leading to a Master of Science Degree in Elec- trical Engineering. Both the master’s and Doctoral Degrees feature ad- vanced instruction and research in a variety of academic fields. Research is conducted in several on-campus re- ELECTRICAL JENGINEERING search agencies. The graduate pro- gram at Michigan Tech offers the Mas- ter’s Degree in eight areas of electrical engineering. The research endeavors of Michigan Tech University Electrical Engineering faculty are good examples of the pro- fessional challenges ahead for tomor- row’s engineers. Michigan Tech profes- sors have been involved in many excit- ing projects such as microcomputer | graphics, robotics, research projects in fuses, and geophysical measurements. Electrical Engineers are much in de- mand with job placement being excel- lent in all areas of Electrical Engineer- ing. Because of the number of jobs available, and because of the chal- lenges awaiting electrical engineers, enrollment has greatly increased in re- cent years. This has caused the depart- ment to control admissions particularly transfers from other curriculums. Copy by LINDA JAMES Department Head Dr. E. Keith Stanek. Seated: Dr. K.

Each option offers a differ- ent emphasis to meet not only the indi- vidual’s specific interests but also his career goals. The School of Forestry and Wood Products offer degrees in Forest Engi- neering and Forest Science, while the College of Engineering offers Forest En- gineering and Wood Engineering. The Forest Engineering option is a four and a half-year joint program with the two schools. Forest Engineers specialize in harvesting, equipment design, or land surveying. Simply put, Forest Engineer- ing applies engineering principles and techniques to the problems of the for- est industry. Wood Engineers study wood as a ma- terial in structures, they develop new product concepts and can also develop new means of processing wood or im- proving construction design and pro- tection methods. Wood Engineering is also jointly administered through the College of Engineering and the School of Forestry. Forestry Science is a huge field where the areas of specialization are diverse. Areas available include Forest business, Forest management, and Forest soils. Also available is the fast- growing and exciting area of Intensive Forestry. Forestry education has been a part of Michigan Tech since 1936. The School of Forestry and Wood Products FORESTRY Department head Lindo Bartelli was formally established in 1968 and is accredited by the Society of American Foresters and the Michigan Board of Land Surveyors. The department of- fers the Bachelor of Science and Mas- ter of Science degrees in Forestry, which include areas ranging from man- agement to wildlife. This year, a Ph.D. program was beginning to be devel- oped. The Ford Forestry Center, which was presented to the University in 1954 by the Ford Motor Company provides an excellent facility for students in the for- estry curriculum. Research forests of the Center are used for the scientific study of timber management and utili- zation. A modern saw mill and other research facilities are located at the village of Alberta, a part of the Center. Laboratory equipment of the most modern type is available for student use. A large greenhouse permits year- round studies of tree physiology, fertil- ization, genetics, and related subjects. This year and last year over 70% of graduating students found jobs in ei- ther Forestry or jobs that they are pre- pared for through the scientific nature of the Forestry undergraduate pro- gram. In addition, the program in For- estry became even more flexible as the curriculum was revised to allow a broader selection of support courses in general education and technical areas. copy by LINDA JAMES | Front Row: Mary Frantti, Beth Reed, Lindo Bartelli, Kathleen Slattery, Carol Isola.

Academics — 19 : ' i IdeMIcs Academics — 199 Geology is the study of the earth and earth materials — their composition, be- havior, and history. Geologists apply this knowledge to locate fuels, minerals, and wa- ter supplies; or to predict earthquake behav- ior among active faults. New fields are constantly opening. Some geologists study volcanoes. Others direct their attention to areas such as city plan- ning, nuclear or chemical waste disposal, and wilderness areas. About one-half of our geology graduates go into the petroleum in- dustry. A third find employment with mining and mineral exploration companies, and consulting firms. A few continue into gra- duate work to become teachers and re- search scientists. As a profession, geologists generally divide their time between outdoor field work and laboratory study. Students at Michigan Tech are taught by excellent faculty and have well-equipped lab- oratories available to them, and a strong library of geological reference publications and maps. Course work is based on funda- mentals of physics, chemistry and math- ematics, but independent work and indepen- dent thinking are encouraged. All students are also required to attend summer field courses in geology and either geophysics or surveying. During the first two years it is fairly easy for students to change their ma- jor from geology to geological engineering to to applied geophysics if they wish to do so. The geology program is particularly effective in providing students with a strong back- ground in the study of all types of rocks. GEOLOGY A geo-pysics student prepares for his future career.

Lib- eral Arts students combine study in such areas as literature, theater, mu- sic, foreign language, philosophy, or history, with courses in business ad- ministration, science or engineering. This unique combination can prepare a student with skills in a variety of fields. A Literal Arts education can also serve as a base for further studies in medi- cine, law, or even fifth-year programs such as public relations. With the renovations made this year at the Arts and Humanities Center, the department will be able to provide more programs in art, music and the- ater. The department has gained visi- bility at MTU and elsewhere for its Communication’s Institute. Of special recognitions is the Writing Across the Curriculum program. The goal in the liberal arts program at MTU is to prepare the individua l to use the valuable liberal arts back- ground as a basis for employment and to meet the challenges of our contem- porary, technological world. copy by LINDA JAMES The Department of Social Sciences offers two, four-year degrees to the prospective student: A Bachelor of Sci- ence in Social Sciences and a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Arts with concentra- tion in History. In addition, A Social Sci- ences option may be elected within the two-year Associate degree adminis- tered in cooperation with the Depart- ment of Humanities. Social Sciences apply the techniques of science to the analysis of society, human behavior, and values. The sub- jects represented within the depart- ment include Archaeology, Psycholo- gy, Sociology, Anthropology, Geogra- phy, History, and Political Science. Students are encouraged to gain a working knowledge in several of these areas; most choose a large proportion of their classes in one or two of them. Also available is the option of Sci- ence, Technology, and Society (STS) which deals with the relationships be- tween science and technology and oth- er aspects of society. Courses in this curriculum are believed to be very ap- propriate for the mature of the MTU student body, and for the career inter- ests and paths of the students. The department plans, through STS classes, to have a broad impact on un- der-graduates majoring in Engineering and the sciences. copy by LINDA JAMES Pat Martin, Mary Buser, Bernard W.

Academics — 201] MATH AND COMPUTER SCIENCE The Department of Mathematical and Computer Sciences has had an in- teresting history. For many years, the department's function was purely teaching. This was handled by many dedicated people, of whom, three won Distinguished Teacher awards. Though research and _ professional development is performed by all of the staff, a numerical method to see the increase in research emphasis is a trace of the number of Ph. D.’s on the staff throughout the years. In 1930 math was offered only through the lev- el of calculus. At that time there were eight faculty members, none of which carried a Ph. D. By 1935, the depart- ment had expanded its course offer- ings to include astronomy, geodesy, and vectors, and by 1940, a course in probability had been added. In 1944, with the retirement of James Fisher, head of both mathematics and phys- ics, the two departments separated. Department Head Richard Millman The Mathematics Department then consisted of four faculty members, one with a Ph. D. In 1950, courses in higher mathematics for engineers and ad- vanced calculus were added to the cur- riculum, and the B.S. degree in math was Offered for the first time. By 1959, the faculty had grown to 17, of whom three had Ph. D.’s, and one had the Ed. D. The Masters degree program in math began in 1963, and the first de- gree was awarded in 1964. Of the 21 faculty members, on staff in 1969-70, ten had earned Ph. D.’s. The B.S. program in computer sci- ence was approved in 1973, and the first degree was awarded in 1974. With the rapid growth of computer science, the department name was changed to the Department of Mathematical and Computer Sciences, and as of its ap- proval in 1980 the computer science Masters degree is also available at MTU.

MECHANICAL ENGINEERING Research is a major part of many faculty members stay at Tech. Mechanical Engineers are experts on machine, engines, and a wide variety of energy-related systems. Mechanical Engineers have been involved in de- signing, testing and improving many devices that have brought about this century’s major technological break- throughs. At Michigan Tech the curriculum pro- vides students with a background in the basics of the profession along with concentrated study in complex topics and freedom to explore individual in- terests. Students choose to specialize from one of five general areas, includ- ing computer aided engineering and design, industrial engineering, energy thrermo-fluids, solid mechanics and material, and dynamic systems. Stu- dents choose from these options with the help of the faculty members of Michigan Tech’s Department of Me- chanical Engineering-Engineering Me- chanics.

Academics In the next few years the library will be focusing on three major developments: building an addition, placing new emphasis on research, and increasing developments TH F | | B RARY in automation. An addition is currently in the planning stages for expanding the building to the south. This new area will be primarily for graduate students a nd faculty so the now existing building will be for undergraduate students. Another advantage the addition will bring is an increase in seating capacity from 625 to 1,500 seats. With many of the departments at Michi- gan Tech developing new M.S. and PH.D. programs, the research going on within the University will greatly increase, and conse- quently the available materials at the library will increase as well as more books to assist graduates in their studies. A major development now in the planning stages which may have special interest to students will be the automation of the card catalogue system. The system may soon be entirely available through computer termi- nals within the library. And as the system matures the information may be available through computers anywhere on campus. This automation will not only improve circu- lation procedures but will also assist in the materials. Hopefully, these advancements will lead to an eventual connection of all the university libraries of the Upper Peninsula. Then information from any one university would be readily available to the others by the use of a computer system. Advancements like these may be in the very near future for all of Michigan Tech!

Students gather much information from the Periodical Lounge. Academics a Metallurgical engineering is a broad field within the scope of engineering and science because its work with me- tas and materials involves interactions with almost all other fields. Metallurgi- cal engineers are called upon to do many things. Among them are produc- ing and developing new materials, im- proving available materials and select- ing appropriate materials. These activi- ties result in a wide variety of materials suited for such things as nuclear reac- tors, water and air pollutions control filters, and microelectronic circuits. It is expected that metallurgical engi- neers will play an even more important role in the future. Many of the impor- tant current technological problems await adavnces in the science and technology of materials. Michigan Tech's Department of Met- allurgical Engineering is one of the lar- gest in the world. The facilities are well- developed, with well-equipped labora- tories for melting, casting, heat treat- METALLURGICAL ing, fabrication, mechanical testing, and X-ray deffraction. Each student has a faculty member who serves as academic counselor to ensure a care- fully planned academic program fea- turing both technical and nontechnical elective courses. The Department also has programs leading to the master’s degree or the Ph.D. degree. After earning a bache- lor's degree, a student may decide to choose one of many industrial posi- tions or consider pursuing one of these graduate programs. Metallurgical engineers are needed in a broad range of positions in a vari- ety of industries and in research orga- nizations, consulting firms, educational institutions, and governmental agen- cies. The work is challenging, and the prospects for job advancement are ex- cellent. copy by Linda James ENGINEERS Metallurgical engineering students recieve much individual help. B. Pletka, A.

The reason being few mined products are purchased directly by the public. Nevertheless, all of the necessi- ties and conveniences of life depend completely on the continued existence of efficient mining. Mining engineers plan, manage, and operate mining ventures. This includes the economic extraction, processing, and marketing of the basic raw materi- als. The mining curriculum has been of- fered at Michigan Tech ever since its beginning in 1885. Mining engineering started this university, as well as estab- lishing its fine reputation. Courses of study are continually upgraded to keep pace with the ever-increasing complex- ity and sophistication of modern min- ing. The department is, in its teaching and research objectives, trying to ad- just to a possibly changing role of min- eral industries within the United States and abroad. Plans are underway to make MTU a national center for the history of mining engineering. Mr. Peter A. Gaines, Dr. Rudolf E. Greuer, Dr. Dae S. Young, Dr. Francis O. Otunonye. Head of Mining Engineering Dr. Rudolf E. Greuer Academics Generally considered to be the most basic of the sciences, physics involves the study of the nature of matter and energy. Students enrolled in Michigan Tech's physics department can choose specialization in Physics, Applied Phys- ics, or Applied Geophysics. The first is primarily designed for those planning to continue graduate study. M.S. thesis areas include theoretical and experi- mental solid state, low energy nuclear physics, micrometeorotogy, plasma physics, optics and spectroscopy. A Ph.D. in the physics of solids is offered in cooperation with the Metallurgical Engineering Department. The physics department has plans to strengthen re- search and graduate programs particu- larly in the areas of theoretical and ex- perimental solid state physics. The second area of specialization, Applied Physics has the purpose of cre- ating an interdisciplinary background which will provide a large variety of em- ployment, opportunities in industry at the B.S. level. The Applied Physics pro- gram is flexible and tailored to suit spe- cial interests. Specialized study in an- other science or engineering field is combined with a strong physics back- ground in order to blend multiple inter- ests into a rewarding career for the student. The third curriculum within the de- partment is the geopysics program. These students pursue a strong cur- mia sics riculum in geology and prospecting methods, supported by physics and mathematics. The physics department at MTU, in addition to strengthening graduate education, plans to upgrade under- graduate laboratories by replacing old equipment. On the whole, placement of the department's graduates has been excellent over the past few years. copy by Tracie Black Physics students work with sophisticated lab eguipment and complicated machinery.

The electromechanical engineering technician training at Michigan Tech | provides the knowledge and skills re- quired to assist practicing engineers and scientists with the design, specifi- cation, installation, and testing of com- plex electromechanical systems. Elec- tromechanical engineering technicians perform semiprofessional and scienti- fic jobs largely on their own and only occasionally require the supervision of an engineer or a scientist. Forest technicians. work under the general supervision of professional for- esters. They may assist forest manag- ers, scientists, ecologists, or biologists by freeing them for duties requiring truly professional or scientific judge- ments. Mechanical design engineering tech- nicians assist engineers in the design and fabrication of today’s complex ma- chines, including their sub-assemblies and component parts. The Medical Technology Degree Pro- gram at Michigan Tech has emerged as one of the largest in Michigan. It is one of the most advanced academic pro- grams in the country. With the addition of an independent course in hemosta- Sis and a course in data handling with computers, the curriculum has_ be- come a model for the field. Seated: Robert A. Fricke, Ronald S.

MTU — A Good Investment By the time you reach college you probably been forced to make impor- tant decisions which will affect your fu- ture in one fashion or another. For in- stance ‘‘Am | going to go to college?”’, ‘If so, where should | go?”’ “‘Do | want to go to a small college tucked away in a small town, or do | want to go to a large university centered in the midst of a bustling metropolis?”’ These are a few questions most juniors and seniors in high school must make. Basically, they are concerned with the problem of choosing a college that will meet their academic, social and emotional needs. Here at Tech it takes a special kind of Baron D.

In addition to the pressures of school, Tech students don’t have the advantage to really get out, away from everything. Learning to cope with a small town environment can be diffi- cult. Yet, Michigan Tech does have a lot more to offer than many of the larger universities. Besides having an out- standing academic reputation, stu- dents are able to have a ‘‘one-on-one”’ relationship with their professors in- stead of being just another number or face in a classroom. Students who are actively involved on Tech campus were asked if they would be just as involved in extra-cur- ricular activities at a bigger campus. Surprisingly, a good majority of the people said no. The main reason being that Michigan Tech’s atmosphere al- lows more people to come out of their shell. One can go on and on about the pros and cons of attending Michigan Tech, or any university. But when its all over, Diploma in hand and a new job await- ing, people can look back at the years spent at MTU and say ‘‘MTU — a well spent investment!” David Doe Electrical Engineering Gregory M.

The options were wide-ranging — books, movies, music or drinking. Yet, the way prices are today, mon- ey can affect the way students have a good time. An informal survey of local businesses showed that entertainment prices rose substantially in five years. Movies were up 25 percent, Albums in- creased 10-15 percent. Fast food was up 25 percent, while liquor and beer cost 15 percent more. Movies contribute a big part of enter- tainment. Thanks to local theaters like the LODE and weekend movies shown Four Tech students, Cindy Shelanski, Aimee Larcher, Bruce Rose and Jill Clune, have a good time during happy hour at a local bar. Seniors in Fisher Hall, there are student rates to depreciate the high cost of movies. Some students turned to books to get more for their money. The manager at B. Dalton’s book- store said at least a third of the cus- tomers were college students. The whole educational environment is con- ductive to book reading. Perhaps the biggest entertainment for most Tech students is happy hours at local bars and going to parties. There, you can meet all your friends, make new friends, dance and not spend $10-$15 in one night. To Be Costly These days it is necessary to plan for a good time out. With gas prices so high you have to plan taking road trips to Hurley or Marquette and to go Cop- per Country Cruising. : There are still other, popular and in- expensive forms of entertainment. Tech offers a wide variety of IM sports. The SDC has facilities for everyone to enjoy. And what is wrong with taking a walk on a sunny day or $tarry night. Having a good time doesn't have to be costly. } : Kelly Barnes Tamara Kayser Business Administration Michael James Kelley Pre-Med Diana E. Keranen Medical Technology Helaine R.

Made from malted hops and barley, it has a some- what bitter taste. It comes in many containers — six and 12 ounce cans, six and 12 ounce bottles, one-quart bottles and kegs that hold 15 and 30 gallons. Cold beer (prounced coal bear) is one of natures gifts to college life. It has caused nausea, head- aches, slurred speech, stumbling, loud talking, and Beer is a must for parties. Students drink it from orange juice bottles, Mason jars or anything that will hold it. When a student goes to a party, he she usually doesn't have to look around long to find the keg. That's the easy part. The hard part is having the necessary stamina, patience and coordination to wait in line for a turn at the tap. — Kelly Barnes failed exams. John A.

It was off of that album that came one of Jackson's numerous number one hits ‘“‘Billie Jean’’, a hit that Pepsi-Cola later decided to use as an advertising gimic. In hopes of promoting their soft drink to ‘‘the Pepsi Generation’, the Pepsi-Cola Company contracted multimillionaire Micheal Jackson and his brothers to film a television commercial in which they would sing, in a concert scene, a Pepsi jingle to the sound of ‘Billie Jean”. What a hit ... Fact was, the commercial was a hit but only after a major misfortune. While coming down the terraced steps leading towards the front of the stage in Los Angeles’ Shrine Auditoruum, Jackson’s hair was apparently ignited by some overhead fireworks, Lucky for Jackson, his brothers quickly pulled his coat (over his head to put out the flames) then, without haste, applied ice to the wound. Despite his brother's rapid thinking, Jackson suffered both second and third-degree burns along with some hair loss. Out of danger, Jackson was released after a relatively short hospital stay. With Jackson recovering and legalities cleared up, the commercial hit television screens across America.

A joyous Bertrand and Bond received cheers after winning the Cup. A duel to the end, the 1984 Ameri- ca’s Cup series proved to be the race of the century. And rightly so, afterall, America had an 132-year winning streak to defend. Starting off in Rhode Island Sound off the coast of Newport, the outcome of the 24.3 mile race be- tween America’s ‘‘Liberty’’ and Austra- lia’s ‘‘Australia Il’’ appeared seemingly predictable. After the first two races in the final series, America’s “‘Liberty’’ enjoyed a comfortable two to nothing lead over the Aussies; the reason being that the ‘Australia Il’ had suffered a loose pul- ley in its steering mechanism and dam- age to a pin that caused the mainsail to drop a substantial distance. In lue of the situation, the Australian crew attacked the course in the third race with a vengeance. With the aid of the Aussie’s high-tech keel, they turned in an impressive victory, win- ning by 3:14. Then ‘‘Liberty’’ answered right back with a close win in the fourth race which brought the tally up to three to one. In a must win situation, the men from down under began their valiant come- back. They received a break when the American yacht suffered a broken strut, a part that supported and con- trolled the mast. The damage was re- paired only to break again at sea. Un- able to keep up with ‘‘Australia II’, “Li- berty”’ took a loss. a The Aussies where victorious in race six, out maneuvering the Ameri- can crew and winning by a sizeable margin. Sea churning and winds gusting, the stage was set for the final show- down. Postponed two days the ten- sion mounted. The ‘“‘Liberty’’ jumped out to a eight second lead, only to have the Aussies takeover minutes later. However, it appeared that American Dennis Conner and his crew would sail to an easy victory as they gained a 29 second lead, then a 57 second lead. The turn came in the fifth leg when Conner sailed in dead air just long enough to allow the challengers to build a 21 second lead. Fighting back, the Americans performed 47 tacks only to fall short of the win by a meager 41 seconds. And so it had happened, the long- est winning streak in the history of sports had been stopped. A jubiliant John Bertrand and his crew and turned in a brilliant performance and headed into port to celebrate. Back home, Australians were estatic. The entire country rejoiced as the Auld Mug, the cup signifying victory, changed hands and began its journey from the New York Yacht Club to its new resting place in Perth, Australia. Copy by: Ronda Hall Australia Il” A Duel To The End 247 248 Horrifying Mystery Solved Horrifying Mystery Solved After over seventeen hours of sifting through electronic bleeps of recorded radio communications at the Japanese Defense Agency on the island of Hokkaido, the mystery of the missing South Korean jetliner that had strayed over the Soviet Union had been solved. Korean Air Line’s Flight OO7 had been cold- bloodedly shot out of the September sky by a missile-firing Soviet Sukhoi- 15 interceptor. The barbaric act caused 269 innocent civilians to lose their lives. With the truth out in the open, the stage was set for a confrontation between the superpowers — the United States and the Soviet Union. The fact the aircraft chough not American was irrelevent: Flight 007 had left from United States territory and had carried 61 Americans including Georgia’s U.S. Congressman Lawrence P. McDonald. The incident seemed to be a crime against all humanity. And so, on behalf of humanity, United States President Ronald Reagan approached Soviet officials with harsh words and noted that, ‘Where human life is valued, extra-ordinary efforts are extended to preserve it and protect it. Every civilized society must ask searching questions about the nature of regimes where such standards do not apply. What can we think of a regime that so broadly trumpets its vision of peace and global disarmament and yet so callously and quickly commits a terrorist act to sacrifice the lives of innocent human beings?” Reagan having already exchanged initial words with the Soviets, an emergency meeting of the United Nation's Security Council was called by U.S. acting permanent representative Charles Lichenstein. Many questions regarding the incident remained unan- swered; most notably, ‘‘Why had the airliner strayed over Soviet airspace?” and ‘‘Did the Soviets try to contact the aircraft before so wantonly destroying ae In investigating the first question, no evidence was revealed regarding a change in course. The plane took off from New York’s J.F. Kennedy Airport and landed in Anchorage, Alaska for re- fueling without any irregularities. Cap- tain Chun Byung In then proceeded to- wards Kimpo Airport in Seoul, South Korea, setting off on: ‘Jet Route 501”’. At the checkpoint Bethel in the Aleu- tian Islands, he switched to ‘Red Route 20’', a popular course that would take him off the coast of the Soviet’s Kanchatka, Peninsula, over the Japanes island of Honshu, and westward to Seoul. However, unaware of his actions, Captain Chun passed over the invisible lines in the air that mark Soviet territory so clearly on avi- ation maps. Without haste, the Soviets sent up a number of interceptors. Con- tinuing on, Flight 3007 crossed the Kamchatka Peninsula, the Sea of Ok- hotsk, and then Sakhalin Island where it later met its fate. The other question regarding con- tact between the two aircrafts was foremost in the minds of U.N. offi- cials. The horrifying answer was un- veiled when those present at the U.N. meeting listened to a recording of the converstion between a lone Soviet pilot and his commander on the ground ... Commander: Take aim at the tar- get. Pilot: Aim taken. Commander: Fire. Pilot: Fired. Unidentified questioner: Where did it go? Mourners weep at a service in Seoul, South Korea. The reply: We shot it down. A chill in the air, Soviet Delegate Richard Ovinni- kov impassively explained the Soviet’s account of the actions declaring that Flight O07, an ‘‘unidentified plane”’ had ‘rudely violated the state border ...” The implication was that the US. planned course deviations in effort to spy on military ongoings. No indication of acontact attempt was ever acknowl- edged. While thousands protested the world over, a decision as to what repercus- sions should be taken had to be made. Over thirty relatiatory steps were sug- gested. The Pentagon suggested dis- continuing arms talks in Vienna but it was declined. It was finally decided that such actions as a suspension of negotiations with the Soviets for a new consular agreement and expand- ed scientific and cultural exchanges along with an appeal to other nations to suspend air service to and from the Soviet Union for two months would be taken against the U.S.S.R. Whatever the reprimands, the rash actions of the Soviets was not justifi- able, ‘‘either legally or morally”’.

It was twenty years ago this year that England’s ‘‘Fab Four’’, The Beatles, rolled into America. With sounds of ‘‘She Loves You”’ and ‘ 'l Want to Hold Your Hand’’, the foursome of Ringo Starr, John Lennon, George Harrison, and Paul McCartney reached almost instant stardom. Filling the void of America’s need for something new, The Beatles began their phenominal Magical Mystery Tour. And, like magic, they won the hearts and attention of millions throughout our country. Where ever they traveled, pandemonuim was sure to follow close behind. Girls screamed, banners were flown, guys vowed to copy the Bristish bowl-cut hairstyle sported by The Beatles ... you name it! Upon arriving in Detroit on September 6, 1964, The Beatles found themselves greeted by more than three-thousand loyal fans being restrained by a six-foot snow fence and some 100 police officers. By today’s standards, these numbers may appear minimal, but in 1964? Along with suc- cessful concerts, the ‘‘Fab Four ’ also earned two much deserved appear- ances on ‘“‘The Ed Sullivan Show”, an accomplishment in itself. The lisit of accomplishments ob- tained by The Beatles is virtually end- less-multiples of number one _ hits, countless concert sell-outs, leading the way for many great acts to follow .... Who would have figured that the four- some out of Liverpool that got their start in the dusty nightclubs of Ham- burg, West Germany could have rede- fined the meaning of rock'n'roll. Even how, as fads and music change more frequently than ever, the sounds of The Beatles can still be heard. On the twen- tieth anniversary of the invasion of Beatlemania, it suffices to state that the names of Ringo, George, John, and Paul — The Beatles — are forever em- bedded in the annuals of rock'n'roll. Ronda Hall ee —. —_ a Sy te 4, y The usual pre-Thanksgiving festivi- ties already underway, over 100 million Americans sat down to watch the airing of the controversial movie ‘‘The Day After’’. Set in the midwest town of Law- rence, Kansas, the film depicted ABC's version of a horrifying nightmare — a nuclear war. The film began by showing the people of Lawrence busy about their daily routines. Although, living in the shadow of missle silos, the thought of a nucclear attack was always in their subconcious, residents continued to carry on as normal. However, their greatest fears were unleashed when the sky became filled with the whirring sounds of missiles in flight. Almost in- stantly the entire town was devestat- ed. Perhaps — the most shocking part of the movie came when viewers saw what the ‘‘life’’ after appeared like. Mil- lions lives where lost. Those fortunate enought to live through the catastro- phe found themselves scarred and without hope as to the future. In reality, Americans too were un- sure about the future. With the deploy- SESE Off With A Bang ANN “The Day After” ment of U.S. missiles in western Eur- ope and the Soviet walkout at the Ge- neva arms talks, the threat of a nu- clear war grew even stronger. So what purpose did the airing of ‘‘The Day After’’ serve? Perhaps it served as a way of informing the American public about the adverse effects of a nuclear war. Although it did not offer much substantive information. What- ever the purpose, it caused a great deal of commotion and gave way to diverse reactions. While some people sat in awe or cried afterwards, oth- ers such as Dar Malott, owner of Ma- lott’s Hardware in Lawrence said, ‘There were some spots that moved me, but it did not teach me much.” According to Alex Hamilton, a stu- dent at Lawrence High School, said, “It raised a lot of questions, like what can we do to prevent this?”’ That question remained to be an- swered. ‘‘The Day After’’ confirmed the fact that there is no simple solu- tion to the dilemma. Copy by: Ronda Hall Bus loads of tourists flooded Michigan Tech’s campus, completed ice statues displayed many hours of hard _work, fans were delighted that their Huskies had swept yet another carnival hockey series. Michigan Tech's 1984 Winter Carvival went off with a bang, literally. Nineteen-year-old Steven Thomas Reid was arrested by Houghton City Police after he reportedly fired several shots through a window in the Delta Sigma Phi fraternity house in Houghton. At approximately 7:00 a.m. on the morning of February 5, 1984, Reid entered the fraternity house and allededly pointed two rifles at a sleeping female occupant. Having verbally threatened her, he left the house and quickly proceeded to the location of the _fraternity’s ice statue just north of the house and fired several shots at the house. Two of the shots entered a window of a bedroom in which people were sleeping. Fortunately no one was injured. Momentarily after the second round of shots were fired, the Houghton City Police, along with officers from the Hancock City Police, M.T.U.’s Public Safety, and the Houghton County Sheriff's Department, arrived on the scene. Reid was soon apprehended near Fisher Hall on the campus of Michigan Tech. Taken to the Houghton County Jail, Reid was arraigned on charges of felonious assault. A bond of $7,500 was later set by the 97th District Court. Unable to post bail, Reid remained in the Houghton county Jail until grounds for his release were secured.

Despite the fact that Sarajevo was a novice when it came to putting on the Games of the XXIII Olympiad, spectators where capitivated at the opening ceremonies as thousands of doves hauled colorful balloons to the mountain tops. In the words of Yugoslav Skier Bojan Krizaj, this symbolized ‘‘... the spirit of true sportsmanship. And so, the stage was set for the athletes of the world to get their chance at the quest for the GOLD. East German Speedskater Karin Enke was among the first to attain that medal so many thirst for, breaking the 1,500 meter world record. Striving for a second gold, 22-year old Enke was nipped by teammate Christa Rothenburger and thus settled for a silver. Up in the mountains, blizzard-like conditions soon delayed the men’s alpine events as well as others. As if they were super-humans, the Nordic skiers skiers braved the elements and took to the 30 km course with Russia's Nikolay Zimiatov turning in a brilliant performance. America’s best Car Lewis followed in the footsteps of Jesse Ow ens 1984 ‘Going For The Gold ‘Gong for the GOLD America's golden boys.

Elsewhere in the city at Zetra Rink, the U.S. Hockey Team had dropped two straight games, one to Canada and the other to Czechoslovakia. With any hope of a medal and visions of Lake Pacid in 1980 gone, the U.S. played out the series. As were any medal hopes dashed in the hockey competition, so were they in the two-man bobsled event, the U.S. taking 15th place. As was projected, the powerful East Germens, Wolfgang Hoppe and Dietmar Schauerhammer, took the gold. Another East German team grabbed the silver. The Soviets with their newly developed bob that re- sembled a cigar (nicknamed the ci- garski) took the bronze. Moving back to the warmer confines of Zetra Rink, the skating competition provided much excitement. Great Bri- tian’s ice-dancing couple of Jayne Tor- vill and Christopher Dean gave the Olympics its first flawless display with nine perfect marks of 6.0 and left a mark for future stars to shoot for. How- ever, the judges in the various other events were not quite as agreeable about scores as they were with Torvill and Dean's. Gary Beacom, a Canadian skater became enraged at his scores and kicked the rinkside barrier. Ameri- Soaring to new heights Bill Johnson takes a gold. can premier ice-dancers Judy Blum- berg and Micheal Seibert lashed out in frustration after their medal hopes were dashed by a single judge and her appalling scores. Despite these heart-breaking exper- iences, there were many dreams left to come true. The U.S.’s brother-sister pair of Kitty and Peter Carruthers were only hoping for a possible bronze. Turn- oe j rs | ing in a brilliant performances, they earned a most deserved silver medal, the best showing by Americans since £9523 In the women's figure skating it was East Germany's Katrina Witt’s time to shine. The 18-year old proved to be the perfect combination of both grace and athleticism. After years of international competition, Witt had seized the gold. America’s gold medal hopeful Rosalyn Sumners was disappointed with her second place finish. Sumners was the image of delicate feminity, performing cleanly and with fascinating style. How- ever, she was not able to over come Witt’s high technical scores. The hero of men’s figure skating America’s Scott Hamilton, entralled the crowd all nationalities included, with his dazzling style. Despite a cold and an ear infection, Hamilton skated well but not quite the way had had planned it. Hamilton reflected, ‘‘The whole last four years have been for this night. I’ve worked so hard, trained so hard, waited so long. | wanted it to be special, | wanted my greatest program. It wasn't my best, but | did it. | feel like | just fell off the edge of the world.” | came here to win the gold medal. May- be it wasn’t pretty, but | did it.’’ An Ohio native, Hamilton, capped of an as- tonishing amature career with the highlight of his life. Still other surprises took place in the skiing events. The big story was made by American Bill Johnson in the down- hill event. Sometimes criticized for his arrogance, Johnson made a very pow- erful run and became the first Ameri- can to win an Olympic medal in this event. Over at Mt. Jahorina, the Women’s Giant Slalom provided yet another newcomer winner, American Debbie Armstrong who finished just .4 seconds ahead of fellow teammate Christin Copper to take the gold. Aloft the vic- tor’s platform a laughing Armstrong could hardly believe what she had just accomplished. On a more predictable note, the U.S.’s Mahre bothers finished 1-2 in the slalom. Phil Mahre streamed over the course and quickly grabbed a walk- ie-talkie and relayed course conditions to brother Steve. A bit too reckless, Steve finished second to Phil. And so, on the last day of the Games the Mahre Brothers skiied their way into history . what a fitting finish to a fabulous career. From the snowy skies of Sarajevo to the sunny shores of southern Califor- nia, the quest for the gold continued. As if to set the stage for things to come, the opening ceremonies of the summer Games of the XXIII Olympiad were like none other. With all of the glitter that Los Angelos is famous for, millions of people enjoyed a touching three and a half hour display of togeth- erness by the athletes of the world. Unlike the showing made by the U.S. Team in Sarajevo, the U.A. Team in L.A. racked up a record number of medals As if to follow in the spirit of competi- tion, Americans Connie Carpentar- Phinney and Rebecca Twig dueled it out in the first ever Women's 79.2 km Cycling Roadrace with Phinney edging out Twig by inches to take the gold. Just as the U.S. captured the gold in the women's event, so did they in the Men's 190.2 km version. An Aspen, Colorado native, 23-year old Alexi Grewal pedaled for some five hours be- fore receiving his gold. Away form the sweltering heat, the gymnastics competition inside Pauley Pavillion was the site of many dreams come true. It all began when the U.S. Men's Gymnastics Team seized the first medal in history for the U.S. in the team competition ... a gold one at that. Sparked by a valiant team effort, the Americans established themselves as a world power. The winning wasn’t over as Peter Vidmar was edged out by 25 one-thousandths of a point to the Japanese vetern Koji Gushiken, to fin- ish second. Vidar also claimed several individual medals as did U.S. members Mitch Gaylord, Bart Conner, and Tim Daggett. As if answering the men’s call the U.S. Women’s Gymnastics Team, lead by Mary Lou Retton, claimed the silver, second to the Romanian team. Then the real battle began between Retton and Romania's Ecaterina Szabo. It came down to Mary Lou’s score on the vault: she needed a 9.95 to tie and a 10.00 to win. With a big smile, she man- aged to whip off two perfect double- layout Tsukaharias to become the first American women to win the Olympic all-around competition. Adding to her collection, Mary Lou won individual medals in the vault, floor exercise, and the uneven parallel bars. Szabo took top honors in the floor and balance beam. Julianne McNamara, another promising U.S. gymnast captured her gold medal in the uneven parallel bars as well as a medal on the floor. Outside at the Olymplic swimming pool medals continually piled up for the U.S. with Nancy Hogshead and Carrie Steinseifer tying for the gold in the 100m freestyle. The winning did not stop there Mary T. Meagher, Tracey Caulaskins, Tiffany Cohen, Mary Wayte and Theresa Andrews garnered golds. The U.S. men proved to be as much excitement as the women. One of the most memorable moments was the American's victory over the powerful West Germen’s, led by Micheal Gross, in the 4x200m relay. Other gold medal- ists for the U.S. were Rick Carey, Steve Lundquist, and Rowdy Gaines. Right next to the Olympic pool was the diving complex. This was the site where Greg Louganis awed the world with his diving perfection to win two golds. Out of the water, the track and field events p rovided many more U:S. ath- letes with well deserved medals. Carl Lewis tied Jesse Owen's long-standing record of four gold medals in track and field. Lewis, with the laurel of being the fastest human to that date, took the top honors in the 100m, 200m, long jump, and the 4x100m relay. Edwin Moses who perfected the 400m hur- dles, claimed the gold with his 105th consecutive win. In one of the more grueling events of the Olympics, the decathalon, Britian’s Daley Thompson became the first man in history to win two consecutive gold medals in that events and just missed the world re- cord by point one. American Evelyn Ashford, like Lewis, earned top honors in the Women’s 100m. Teammate Va- larie Brisco-Hooks also put on a show of her own winning three gold medals. Joan Benoit inspired young women runners all over as she won the first Olympic marathon for women. In the lead since the third mile, Benoit put her name in the annals of marathon running for the United States. Although it did not surround a victo- ry, one of the most emotional mo- ments of the XXIIl Olympiad was when Britian’s Zola Budd, a 17-year old nov- ice, nudged American Mary Decker, better known as ‘‘Queen Mayy’’, caus- ing her to fall and thus drop out of the 1,500m race. Heart-broken, Decker undoubtably made her last Olympic ap- pearance without ever being able to feel the gold medal around her neck. Other great moments included the gold medal performances of the U.S. Men's and Women’s basketball teams, the Men's volleyball Team, the Men’s Boxing Team, and many others. As the Games of the XXIII Olympiad came to an end, emotions flowed. Many participants went home with dreams fulfilled but one must not for- get those who gave it their all, for with- out those people the Olympics would not be possible. Records were broken and history made, the stage was set for 1988 when undoubtably the world will have new heroes as new faces ‘‘go for the gold.” Copy by: Ronda Hall 1984 “Going For The Gold 253 cabbage companions: 254 Cabbage Companions Amy Nass with her cabbage companion, Carlotta. Just what would cause 5,000 people to stage a near riot at Hill's Department Store in Charleston, West Virginia? Or cause a woman to break her leg when yet another incited crowd turned violent after waiting eight hours to get into a Zayre store in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania? Perhaps money, computers, clothes, jewelry, not hardly! The answer to those questions, oddly enough, was a doll but not just any doll — a Cabbage Patch Doll. Cabbage Patch Dolls are somewhat homely, vinyl-faced cloth dolls that had proved to be a good companion for children and in some cases, adults alike. The characteristics make those dolls special rather it be puggy noses, short legs, long hair, or beady eyes. Computer designed, no two Cabbage Patch Dolls are alike. One of the reasons for the toys continued success was the fact that they came with their very own name, birth certificate, and adoption papers. The uniqueness of each doll gave ‘‘par- ents” the feeling that they were re- sponsible for their childs well-being. The doll’s homeliness appealed to his new found family. The entrepreneur's visions had become reality: a human- like toy was created. Invented back in 1977 by Georgian artist Xavier Roberts, the original hand- made Cabbage Patch, now a collec- tor’s dream, were made of cloth and sold at inflated prices, ranging from a meager $125 to an astonishing $1,000. At such elevated prices, Roberts sold only 250,000. The national madness began several years later when Robert's Original Ap- palachian Artworks Inc. negotiated an agreement with Coleco to sell the hug- gable little creatures. Legalities ap- proved, Coleco computers began pro- ducing models for a more modest $25. Manufacturing in hand, Coleco launched a phenominal advertising campaign, selling a record number of dolls. The demand was hot and the craze of 1983-1984 began. Copy by: Ronda Hall Grenada, located some ninety miles off of the coast of Venezuela in the Caribbean's Windward Islands, was normally a very tranquil time. However, on October 25, 1983, the unsupecting island was arisen in the wee hours of the morning. U.S. Naval Seals along with over 400 U.S. _ Marines stormed the beaches of the 18th century town of St. George’s. Before long the air was filled with the sounds of heavy artillary fire and the sights of fires roaring form downed aircraft. Fighting their way through the Cuban soliders, the U.S. Seals managed to get into the Governor’s House and guard British appointed Governor-General Sir Paul Scoon, who had been held captive in the mansion under house arrest by Grenada’s Marxist military leaders. Meanwhile the Marines from the U.S. ship ‘“‘Guam”’ secured Pearls Airport, Grenado’s only functional airstrip.

By 7:15 a.m. both airstrips had been secured and other measures could be taken. As U.S. soldiers began trying to secure the island, it became apparent that they were up against more than they had anticipated. The U.S. military intelligence had felt that they would face only about 400 Cuban soliders. To their surprise, they encountered over 600 well equiped Cubans. Soon after the initial invasion, 400 more Cuban and Grenadian soliders arrived. Answering the need for more power, the Pentagon dispatched two battalions of reinforcements from the 82nd Airborn Division to the Southern Atlantic. The necessary man power ready to take action, the ‘‘Guam’’ moved from east to west coast, letting ashore 250 more Marines at Grand Mal Bay. By the following morning the U.S. had things well under control, save a few spots of resistance. Attempts were then made to rescue some 1,000 American’s that were studying at St. George's University School of Medicine. Students hurried to gather a few belongings and were then one their way to Barbados and eventually the United States. On the morning of October 26th, Atlantic Fleet Commander Admiral Wesley McDonald reported to Washington that ‘‘all major military objectives on the island were secured.”’ Yet, the next day 6,000 U.S. military personal were still fighting. With 638 Cuban prisoners in custody, the U.S. still had to capture 500 more. Several weeks later, the prisoners were sent back to Havana after efforts to contrain all of them had need made. With the U.S.’s rescue complete, Grenada was faced with rehabilitating a troubled country. Although Grenada was happy that the U.S. had helped them through the left wing Marxist revolution, back in the States, the public was not as happy with President Reagan's decision to send U.S. troops to the Caribbean island. With all of the bloodshed in Lebanon, everyone had a hard time justifying the “‘rescue”’. White House officials rendered an explaination of events that led to U.S. aid. Apparently there was a growing concern with the British colonies erratic leaders and their growing chuminess with Cuba and the Soviet Union. Gaining their independence from Britain in 1974, Grenada was taken over by maurice Bishop and his leftist New Jewel Movement. Within three days after that takeover, Soviet weapons arrived via Cuba ships. U.S. relations worsened when Cuba’s Fidel Castro said his country would help Grenada build an “international” airstrip. Trying to improve U.S., relations, Bishop flew to Washington to talk. The U.S. said the only way this could be done was to ease repressive rule and hold free elections. Bishop did not get to improve relations a great deal as on October 13, Deputy Prime Minister Bernard Coand other leftists placed Bishop under house arrest. Bishop was e xecuted several days later. In desperate need of help, the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States, fearing a takeover, asked the U.S. for help — and help they received. The country, however, needed a lot of financial and to help it get back on its own feet. The public was not so quick to demean President Reagan for sending aid after realizing the threat of Communist powers taking over. Afterall, the lives of the U.S. students were saved and a grateful country given back its freedom. Indeed the “invasion’’ was justifiable.

Bed stricken, he was unable to contin- ue an exercise program vital to his dia- lysis treaments. Despite complica- tions, he remained mentally fit and continued to perform his duties as head of a superpower nation. However, with the odds not in his favor, death resulted. And so, after only 15 months since Yuri Andropov had taken office, it was time for the Soviets to choose a new leader. Although the end result had been predicted for quite some time, reactions were not considered anti-So- 256 A Job Unifinished of having contracted a ‘‘severe cold” by Soviet officials, Andropov, 69, had actually been dying. Reports indicated that he had su ffered a heart attack some 20 years ago and had diabetes. The combination of cardiovascular disease and diabetes made him a high-risk for kidney transplant, however due to his age Soviet doctors decided to forego the operation. The decision left the Soviet leader receiving dialysis treatments every other day. Any viet officials were faced with appointing a new leader. Their dilemma was in choosing between a man from their own ranks or a younger man such as Grigori Romanov or Mikhail Gorba- chev. They knew that they did not want to deal with the same transitions of authority in a few years. While top officials decided who would be their new leader, the Soviet people for the most part, remained fairly quiet with mixed emotions towards their for- mer leader. They felt he had lelt his job unfinished as did leading officials. An- dropov had not been able to revive his country’s economy as he had hoped. However, he did make some headway Scenes from Andropov’s times. with the party bureaucracy. He had also created a rise in national income by 3.1% in 1983. Back in the United States, reactions were also mixed. President Reagan of- fered his condolences and said, “‘What is needed now is for both sides to sit down and find ways of solving some of the problems that divide us.”’ Former Secretry of State Cyrus Vance noted that a change of Soviet leaderships was a political turning point and actions from other countries can determine which way the Soviets go in choosing a leader. With both hope and fear, the world awaited the appointmet of the new Soviet leader. After days of pondering over candi- dates, Konstantin Ustinovich Cher- nenko, Breznev’s protege, was named the new Soviet head. Chernenko, 72, picked up were Andropov left off, ad- dressing both domestic and foreign policies. With both hope and fear, the world awaited to see the unfinished job ... finished.
