Autumwn A Study in Frustration Changes for Fall Registration Create Confusion ARMSTRONG By Cora Besco Carol Wilson If there is any one word that can describe tall registration it is frustration. Hundreds of returning students who were accustomed to regis- tering for classes in 45 minutes or less waited in lines and filled out forms for more that two hours be fore completing registration. Registration was unorgan- lzed, Roxanne Clemens, fresh- man, said, especially for first- tlme students. You feel lost. Why were students so trus- trated with fall registration? First, distribution at a new type of student information validation form was poorly arranged and second, a federal delay in the fi- nancial aid allotment notice put that office behind schedule. In the past, data concerning studentsl home addresses, family income, marital status, etc., was contained in computer punch cards and students had to print 18 t Registration any necessary corrections in the small spaces provided on the cards. The computer center staff often found the near-microscop ic handwriting illegible. The new validation forms intro- duced in August, however, contained the same information on much larger, notebook-size computer sheets. The spaces al- lowed for corrections on the new forms are much larger and thus the hand-written information is ot- It took me more than an hour to get that stupid tvalidationj form. ten more readable. It took me more than an hour to get that stupid tvalidotiont form, said one senior. til waited in line for more than an hour and other people would walk in and breeze right through simply be cause they had a different last name. Financial Aids Director Bob Berger said a delay in the col- lege's financial aids allotment put his office far behind schedule. Usually, Berger said, the col- lege knows by March or April how much money it will have to distribute during the school year. But Congress decided to cut the budget for educational grants for the 1980-81 school year and the college didn't receive its allot- ment notice until August, just two weeks before registration. Students who thought they mlght have qualified for financial old had to stop at the financial aids station during registration to see it they had actually received any money. George Ashworth, director of Admissions and Records, said stu- dents wouldn't have these prob lems during Spring registration. The college's financial aids allot- ment was determined early and problems surrounding the valida- tlon forms have been ironed out.

Advisement Program Successful By Carol Wilson College officials adopted a policy requiring all first and sec- ond semester freshman to re- ceive mandatory advisement be- fore enrolling in classes. George Ashworth, Director of Admissions and Records, said the action was taken upon the rec- ommendation of an advisement committee. We had elective advisement tor a long time, he said. But too often, students didn't take advan- tage of that service before pre- paring their course schedules. They'd make up their own schedules and get into classes they didn't have the background for, he explained. That caused a lot of problems for everyone in- volved. Marvin McDonald, Director of Counseling and Testing, said stu- dents can receive advisement ei- ther through the counseling cen- ter or from the department of their choice. Sometime students already have an idea what they want to major in, McDonald said, so they can get pre-ad- visement either here at the coun- seling center or from the depart- ment of their choice. First and second semester stu- dents who received academic advisement before registration last August were given a permit which allowed them to enroll ear- Iy. Students who did not receive academic advisement before registration were required to meet with a counselor from an advisement pool before being al- lowed to pull their class cards. I had some misgivings about forcing a service on students, ARMSTRONG McDonald said. But there are a lot of good things coming from it and most of the comments I've heard have been pretty posi- tlve. It's worked very well so far, Ashworth added. It makes regis- tration a lot easier. Some stu- dents take courses they don't need and that won't help them. Sometimes they get into classes they don't have the background for. The whole idea is to get stu dents a little more geared to looking after themselves. Waiting is seemingly endless as a record number of students register for the tall term, with enrollment passing the 4,000 mark.

JIMENEZ JIMENEZ Sense of By Karen McKernan, Laurie Rainwater Involvement plays a great role in sorority organiza- tion. The girls spend a lot of time in planning and helpii g with different fraternity projects and special activities around the college campus. Among their many events, the sororties' HRush Par- ties are aimed at interested girls who want to pledge. The Phi Mu and Sigma Kappa sororities joined forces and held a Rush Kickoff picnic, at which ap proximately 35 girls attended. The purpose of the picnic was to inform the possible pledges of the coming rush activities. The picnic also served as an Icebreaker for the new pledges to meet the others and make friends. Belonging The girls played ttpeople bingo, using a chart di- vided into squares that contains a phrase that may pertain to one or more persons. Examples were ttis wearing a red shirt, or tiis a business major. By fill- Ing up their charts with girls' signatures, everyone had an opportunity to meet and get acquainted with new faces. Most of the new pledges agreed with Stacy Anello who felt that joining a sorority would give me a greater opportunity to meet more people and get involved with the college. When asked why she was initially interested in so- rority rush, Tracy Hicklin responded, To belong to a group of people to be close to. 22 r Sorority Rush Greek Fraternity TL rushed into i plcted in such r The philosoph after some cor obligations of ti what he is gettil Membership r the part which on campus.

No longer are men rushed into campus Greek organizations as de- picted in such movies as Animal House. The philosophy now is that a man should join only after some consideration is given to finances and obligations of fraternal lifestyle. A man should know what he is getting himself into-not rushed. Membership recruitment is a vital part of fraternity, the part which keeps chapters present and active on campus. The fall 1980 fraternity membership campaigns with the Luaus, Kansas Runs, 49ers Parties, and Scav- enger Hunts provided the four fraternities on campus with more new members that in recent semseters. Lambda Chi Alpha, Phi Sigma Epsilon, Sigma Phi Epsilon and Tau Kappa Epsilon totalled almost 50 new men to the Greek system. Popularity of Greek organizations is up nation- wide, according to Mark Antle, president of Lambda Chi Alpha. Greg Wilkerson, president of Phi Sigma Epsilon, said. Honesty and integrity is the key to any good recruitment program. One on one contact to be- come a man's friend and to introduce him to frater- nity is what it is all about. Three of the tour fraternities have recruitment chairmen to motivate the chapter in its recruitment effort. Lambda Chi Alpha members feel that an orga- nized recruitment drive is important and lead them to associtae 20 new men this fall. Phi Sigma Epsilon attributes its 12 new members to its extensive social calendar. Sigma Phi Epsilon has gained its 7 new pledges through a variety of special activities, like ice skat- ing parties, according to President Paul Hofflemire.

Among these was a new intramural director Faye Cromwell. Cromwell opened the fall semester intramurcls with miniature golf, flag football, one-on-one basketball, tennis, and a new addition to the intramural list, beach volleyball. I'm really pleased with the way beach volleyball went, Cromwell said. I only wish there had been more participation. Miniature golf began Sept. 4 with participation numbering 67. Laura Willoughby come out on top in the women's division, and John Hall winning in the men's division. Flag football had a total of ten teams participating in the men's division and three teams in the wom- en's.

One-on-one basketball had a participation total of 64, with Sherman Bynum winning the men's divi sion and Karen Murphy taking the women's. Beach Volleyball concluded the September intra- mural action, with a total of 285 participants. UKB I and II topped both the Sandpit and Surfers divisions.

We come a long way with officiating, Cromwell said. We only plan to make a few minor rule changes for next year. But most of all we are hop Ing to get more participation from the students and faculty.

ARMSTRONG September Intromurclst25 x s Kickers for Half-time By Jackie Hamlin HaIt-time entertainment during basketball games became a re- ality Sept. 20. Charlie Burri, athletic director, coordinated his efforts with colleagues to orga- nize the Golden Gang Perform- ers. The new dance group consists of ten girls and two alternates who will perform at ten of the home games. They are Tahirih Alexander, Jennifer Beers, Kelley Chlldress, Stacey Downey, Karen Fleming, Heidi Jacobson, Mary llPrinney Tillman, Raegene Vavra, Mary Walker, and Yvonne Worley. The alternates are Judy Kottman and Tammy McFadden. Outside entertainment will be brought on campus for the other five home games. The dance group was selected by a panel of six judges. They were judged on technique, pro- jection, uniformity, precision of movement, rhythm, general ap- pearance, kicks, and variety of movements. Competition was stiff as most of the 21 girls who tried out for the group had had former exper- ience from high school or danc- ing lessons. Jennifer Beers, formerly a King's Glitter Girl, directs and performs with the girls. Until this year half- time entertainment for basketball games has been purely voluntary which has proved to be less than reliable. Burri hopes the perform- ers will help improve school spirit and also the spirit of the players. The girls selected all voiced their reason for trying out was be- cause they enjoy performing. I like to dance and I like bas- ketball games, and I thought it would be a good opportunity to do two things at once, stated Stacey Downey, freshman. The Golden Gang tryouts had good par- ticipation as Karla Beck, Heidi Jackobson, Karen Fleming, and Yvonne Worley try their best to make the team. owe...

One of the steps in reaching that goal is the Miss St. Joseph Pageant which took place in the Thompson E. Potter Fine Arts Theater Sept. 20. Julie Lawson was one of the candidates for Miss St. Joseph. Julie, 19, is a freshman here and hopes to become a fashion coordinator. She presented a jazz dance to the Main Event theme song for her talent compe- tltlon and won the swimsuit com- petition. The candidates were judged in Evening Gown, Talent and Swim- suit competition.

The winner of the 4980 Miss St. Joseph Pageant was Eileen Hous- ton, who gave a sign language interpretation of Barbara Streisand's The Lord's Prayer. The first runner up was Julie Foose and the second runner up was Kit Meinert. Miss Houston will represent St. Joseph in the 1981 Miss Missouri Pageant in Mexico City, Missouri. Julie was the winner of the Swimsuit competition. When asked how she felt about the pageant she stated, It was an experience. The pageant is a way in which you can meet a lot of nice people, not just fellow contestants, but the people who are really involved in creating the pageant. Even though Julie didn't get the Miss St. Joseph title, she does not regret competing in the pageant. The contestants practiced for five weeks prior to the pageant during which time' they got to know each other and find real friends. The girls vote on who they felt was the friendliest for an award known as Miss Congeniality. Alicia Davis was the recipient of this years Miss Congeniality Award. The master of ceremony for the pageant was Martyn Howgill, vicepresident of development at Missouri Western, while Kenneth Rosenauer, instructor of English and Journalism, was the general chairman. The pageant is sponsored an- nually by the St. Joseph Jaycees.

The Saturday night attair took a new twist providing the local group Chateaux as entertain- ment. Although clouds and rain threatened, Chateaux contin- ued to play as many enjoyed the music. ' Due to the high rate of intla- tion, admission had been upped .from $3 to $4. However, some partygoers didn't seem to mind paying an extra dollar. Over 900 people attended the 28IBeet 'n Beer Bust party and many were outsiders who didn't go to college. This party is really neat. There's so many people.

With attendance so great, many hot dogs, hamburgers and drinks were served. We had 29 kegs of beer and 1200 hamburgers, Mike Sansom, Lambda Chi Alpha member, said. The Beef and Beer Bust's suc- cess was determined by the re actions of those who 'were in at- tendance. , ' The Beef and Beer Bust is a real good time.

Television coverage of bodybuilders flexing their muscles draws large crowds who cheer on the results of many hours of gruelling workouts. Magazines publish stories on the benefits of weightlifting both to men and women. The status- symbol image has prompted many to turn flab into muscle, but the invigorating feeling of fit- ness has also contributed to body-building popularity. At the present, there are three weight-training classes here at the college. One such class is weight-conditioning, which is an extension of body dynamics. Weight-conditioning stresses the understanding of basic nutritional, psychological, and muscular de velopment. Each student has an individualized work-out to meet his own personal requirements. The benefits of body-building are many, and are especially helpful to football players. Added strength, size, and endurance are just a few of the pluses to be obtained if the individual works at it. 30 y Bodybuilding Right now the football team has a 12-month training program which is split up into otf-season, summer, and in-season. In ott-season the goal is to build up the muscles as much as possi ble. During the summer they are supposed to continue working out on their own. In season is de signed as a maintenance pl'Oi gram rather than a strength gain ing system. Several of Western's football team players work out at Steve Walker' 5 Gym. Tony Franklin knows the benei fits of a weight-training program? can produce more than a strong, I firm body. They gave him thei ability to compete and win the tt! tie of Mr. St. Joseph. In contrast, sophomore Alex Starke works out only for the add ed strength and size. Since his freshman year, Alex has added! 40 lbs. to his 6' 5 frame. Due to the shortage of weightlifting equipment here at the college, plans include addil tional weight room with $7000 worth of new equipment. There is definitely a demand to justify , , theseplans should they eventuati Iy become reality since the only; alternative has been to work out at Steve's Gym.

In the evenings this place is packed. iiSome' come to lose weight and others just want to firm up. We encourage the women to use weights and stress the fact that they will not develop abnor- mally large muscles. What they will do is firm up their bodies and define natural curves. With the interest in body-build- ing and weight-training on the rise, hopefully we will be seeing a few more healthy bodies on campus. One word of warning, howev- er; it takes a lot of hard work and determination to develop the body-beautiful. So, quit dreaming and start lifting.

By Mike Hoffman Side-splitting laughter echoed through the almost empty Fine Arts Theater the moment Duck's Breath Mystery Theater took the stage Sept. 30. The intellectual comedy group, relocated drama graduates from Iowa, immediately developed a rapport with the 50 to 60 students In the audience. itNobody has caught crabs from these chairs, opened the performance as one member of the group encouraged the audi- ence to move up and get in- volved. During the show, Bill Allard divided the crowd into two choruses and conducted a 32 i Entertainment Bizarre Comedy: Duckis Breathis Trade Mark unique rendition of ttOId Mc- Donald Had a Farm. From a parody of famous paint- lngs to a seminar on success, 'Dare to Be Stupid, the five members changed from one strange costume to another, one slap-stick scene to another, nev- er allowing the laughter to sub- side. The promiscuous behavior and occasionally obscene language did not phase the students and blended well with the zaniness of the situations. After the show, which ended with a take off of a late night commercial entitled More Than a Box, Duck's Breath members asked the audience to stay and talk. One member of the group related that a small turnout was usual for their first appearance on any campus. They also com mented that this was one of the most responsive audiences they've encountered. Vicki Andrews, College Centei Board member, said, 'ilt was a great show, fantastic. It's too bad 3950 people had to miss it.

On the evening of Sept. 23 at the Missouri Theatre, that unmistakable sound was heard again. Woody Herman and his Thundering Herd were caught live tor an evening of both contemporary and older jazz tunes. Some of the older set will remember the old John Coltrane tune called Countdown. On a more contemporary note, the Joe Crocker composition of tiYou Are So Beautiful, or Woody Herman's arrange ment of the Greasy Sack Blues, which was dedi cated to none other than McDonolds, thrilled both the young and old alike. 'ilt was nothing less than spectacular, according to Robert Cochran, a music major from King City.

IRWIN The Bapfl'sf Student Union sponsors Tim Sheppard in the Fine Arts The afre. BSU Sponsors Tim Sheppard By Tim Ramseier One of the latest and most talked about styles of music is that of contemporary Christian music. A relatively new concept, this type of music gives the Chris- tian listener a chance to hear the modern pop rock musical in- fluence applied to a song with a Christian message. ls such music sacrilegious? Not at all. It merely gives the people a chance to hear the music that they like to hear along with an important Christian message, stated Anne Herring, pianist and composer for the group, The Sec- ond Chapter of Acts. In addition, the Baptist Student Union has sponsored concerts for the student body with Tim Sheppard, popular vocal soloist, and the group, Truth. Both con- certs enjoyed a large atten- dance which paves the way for the possibility of future concerts. EntertainmenU 33 we-wn-w v..- H ..

All the Comforts of Home By Kathleen Wilson In an effort to alleviate the criti- cal housing shortage, additional living quarters were leased last fall from the Broodmoor Club apartment complex located at 3601 Gene Field Rood. Each of the 32 apartments house from three to four students. They are completely furnished and offer all the conveniences of home plus a few added extras. Many of the students have their own transportation to school but for those who don't a shuttle bus is provided and makes vor- Ious runs throughout the day. City bus service is also available. Jo Ann Agnew, a freshman from Craig, Mo. said, i like living here at Broodmoor. There's a lot of privacy and i enjoy the enter- tainment facilities at the club- house. Kormen Askins, freshman from 34 y Broodmoor Complex King City, Mo., had to get used to living around an abundance of people. She said, It didn't take me long to get used to city life, especially living here at Broodmoor. The atmosphere is a lot like home. Brion Rueckert and his three roommates take turns at cooking. He said, These apartments are really nice and give you a little more privacy than you'd have in the dorms. Another student, Clark Wilson, likes living at Broodmoor. Clark said, Olympic Lanes is close and so is Speedy's when you need to quench your thirst in a hurry. There is a good atmo- sphere here for studying, and when you need to relax the swimming pool and tennis courts are just around the corner. Living on his own, Kevin Allen experiences a new challenge-cooking for himself. Journ o '73in seven runs W6! 5 tgifq: ; l4 Early Birds Do The Dirty Dozeni By Cora Besco During the spring semester of 1980 a new group was formed which enabled anyone who wanted to get In good physical condition to join. Not only was this group a way to stay in shape but also it was a way to have an enjoyable morning while meeting new friends. This new group met on Monday through Friday at 7 am. Since the members wanted to name for their group and felt 7 am. was early, they called them- selves the Early Birds. Sgt. First Class Donald Landrum, instructor in the military science department, started the group. The Early Birds is not sponsored by any organiza- tion or department. It is just a group that wants to have a good time while they are getting in shape, Landrum explained. Each morning the Early Birds go through a series of exercises known as the dirty dozen. The group runs two miles each day. On Friday the group has a choice of running or swimming. Working out early in the morning Cassie Blakely holds Libia ScaveDra's feet while she does her regulation sif-ups. The Early Bird's membership consists of college stu- dents and faculty, of which 4W. are female. The average daily attendance is about 20. People have joined the Early Birds tor a variety of reasons, such as wanting to get in good physical condition, wanting to lose weight, and tcuriouslyt wanting to gain weight. Student Mark Linebaugh, an Early Bird member, said, Two months ago I was not in shape, but ev- ery day I feel an improvement. He continued, It helps you to exercise with other people. Also it is a good program. Everyone needs to show up. Assistant PMS, Captain Glenn Davis expressed his feelings, I'Early Birds is an excellent idea for a per- son who likes to keep in shape. I enjoy the exercise and running program. Furthermore, it starts you off good in the morning. It is more fun to do things with a group instead of by yourself. This is exactly why Early Birds has been such a hit ' here on campus. ODIY seven runs were allowed by Griffon News Pitcher Karen Fleming. ARMSTRONG ' Journalism Softball Classic By Marilyn Nold The Griffon News staff defeated The Griffon 81 and Only in the annual autumn softball game. The game was held at Bartlett Park on the lower field. The two teams battled it out with the News staff claiming the victory in a seven inning game. At though the yearbook staff put up a goodashow, they lost to their rivals by a score of 18 to 7. 'We should have won, but we'll win next year , Lori Ellison commented. But does the game improve the relationship be- tween the two staffs? It gives us a chance to get together, and get to know each other; therefore it improves relations. Even though we are working in the same general of- fice areas, we are working on two completely differ- ent publications, Greg Armstrong, yearbook staff, commented. Troy Ruch of the Griffon News agreed that Iisince both offices are always so busy, you never get the opportunity to meet fellow staffers. After the softball game, the teams joined forces for a picnic. Those that remained after the picnic also enjoyed building trains on the tornado slide, playing in the sandbox, and a couple of sets of volleyball, despite the cool weather. Early Birds, J Club Softball Gamet35 I A x Gridiron Battles By John Vanderpool The Missouri Western Golden Griffons opened the 1980 football season against NCAA Division II opponent Augustana College, in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. The Griffons fought an uphill battle, but came back in the sec- ond half behind a stalwart defen- sive performance to gain a 22- 22 tie. Two Griffons earned District 16 players of the week for their part in the tie. Mike Taggart, senior running back from Shawnee Mis- sion earned the offensive award as he gained 100 yards on 12 carries while scoring the Griffons tieing touchdown on a 13 yard sprint. Robert Newhart, a sophomore linebacker from Savannah, capped the defensive award as he collected 16 unassisted tack- les in a game that saw the Grif- fons defense hold the NCAA team scoreless for the final 28 minutes of the game. The Griffons carried their mo- mentum into Seward, Nebraska to face the Concordia Bulldogs in another non-conference encoun- ter. The Griffons came out with an easy 29-7 victory highlighted by a fake field goal play. With , the score tied 7-7 in the second quarter, holder Andy Heinle threw a 5-yard touchdown pass to tight end Jim Shelton on a fourth down play. Greg Fetters was coming into his own as the Griffons starting quarterback, as he had 162 yards passing and Junior runningback Rodney Stephenson had 106 yards rushing. The Griffs came home in the third week looking for their sec- wk and consecutive win as they faced the Evangel Crusaders. A crowd of about 3,000 witnessed Marc Lewis is helped off the field during the Evangei game.

After bursting out to a 13-0 lead in the first quarter, the Grif- fons had to hold on as Evangel gained momentum. The Griffs scored once more to secure the game and the final score of 21- 13. Runningback Rodney Ste- phenson went over the 100-yard mark for the second straight week while Junior slotback Tim Hoskins caught an 8-yard touchdown pass to break the old scoring record held by Bubba Hopmns The Griffons opened CSIC con- ference play at home against Wayne State. Mike Taggart set a new Griffon regular season single game rushing record, piling up 235 yards on just 17 carries as the Grittons ran away with a 57- 34 victory.

The Griffs closed out the first half of the 1980 against perennial CSIC power Kearney State. This game has become a heated ri- valry over the last few years but Western got little revenge as the Antelopes demolished the Griffs 45-19 to level the record at 3-1- 1. The Griffons closed out the first half of the season with a respect- able 3-4-1 record Greg Fetters had become a leader and all around offensive player at quar- terback, Mike Taggart had for ex- ceeded the expectations of many and runningback Rodney Stephenson was also a steady performer.

T.Ks ROWLAND x i' fl 1,13h7442 ' A LAWHON Football T 37 A Night By Mike Hoffman Night air was cool for concertgoers roaming the streets of downtown St. Joseph, Oct. 5. People were milling about street corners. Cars roamed the narrow streets looking for parking places. It was a night of firsts. It was the first major concert ever booked in St. Joseph. How would people react? It was opening weekend for the St. Joseph Civic Arena. Would it be popular or become a white ele phant?

Would it t or could it restore a night life to the downtown area? ' As students and curious St. Joseph residents en-f tered the Arena, they were not considering these questions. They were trying to soak in that they did not have to drive 50 miles to go to a good concert. W They were talking with friends, eating and drinking 1 and formulating their opinions of the new structure. Unlike most concerts where you know a few pea i pie, almost everyone knew everyone else.

Q Concert t 39 aye; 43w 4; AA; : A Night of Firsts It was the hometown crowd. First the Dirt Band, formerly the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, took the stage. The crowd took to its feet stamping to their mix of rock and bluegrass. The crowd listened, almost sentimentally, as The Dirt Band ended its set with Mr. Bojangles. The music seemed to set well with the crowd. After a 45 minute intermission, the Little River Band came on stage. The frenzied crowd, already high, settled back and mellowed out with LRB's Lady, Reminiscing, and 'Cool Change. After other tunes, the crowd flicked their Bics for two encores before LRB disappeared back stage. The hometown crowd was well pleased. It was a huge success, according to promoters. But what if the concert had been postponed or cancelled at the last minute? Two hours before show time, a light truss broke - loose and struck a sound engineer in the head. Pandemonium raged on stage for about ten minutes as police, roadies and band members offered first aid to the injured sound engineer. Fortunately, he had only minor head lacerations and the concert was only delayed. Before the concert, promoters and sponsors alike worried that the concert would not sell out. The Col- lege Center Board stood to lose several thousand .dollars. and promoters wondered it St. Joseph could support concerts. Five hours before show time, 2000 or 4000 tickets had not been sold. , 3 But in that last five hours, ticket sales skyroCketed. By 8 pm. every single seat had been sold. Tickets were so for students, $8 for general admis- sion and $9 the day of the show. Students purchased tickets at the Dean of Stu- dent's office at a make-shift box office manned by volunteers. Over 1200 students attended, the most students to ever attend a single event except for football games. This happened despite complaints that tickets were too expensive. The concert, in its carnival atmosphere with bark- Ing vendors selling souvenirs, was actually a battle of two great bands. One in its prime and one past its prime. Student Kevin Flippin thought that LRB was the best. They're more recent and popular than the Dirt Band, he said. When the Dirt Band was at its peak, it was a long time ago-l can hardly remem- ber it. Both bands were surprised at the crowd reaction. LRB's drummer Derek Pellicci loved it. I wouldn't have thought such an intense crowd would have fit into this size arena, it was dynamite, he said. I hope we come back next year. With band reaction like that, it won't take long for other bands to make St. Joseph a permanent stop on their United States or world tours. With the possibility of concert coming to down- town St. Joseph, who's to say that downtown will or ' will not prosper. Hungry concert-goers flocked to eating establishments on the Belt after it was over because there was no place to go downtown. May- be that, too, will change. Nevertheless the LRBTDirt Band Concert will be remembered for more than just a good night of music.

Witchcraft and devil worship are seri0us realities, eVen in St. ., Joseph. Cults reported here have shocked people into realizing that a community this size can host satanic rituals, sacrifices ands. beliefs that have surfaced 're-l peatedly worldwide. The , thin line between witchcraft and devil worship traces back to Europe. Old gods were labeled suddenly, those in the Mediterranean area as saints and those north of the Mediterra- nean as devils. Hence the con- cept of devil worship. Witchcraft is generally associat- ed with Salem Village and its outbreak in 1692. A group of young girls in the village became obsessed with a slave .named Tituba, whowas deeply involved in magic arts. The girls began to display signs of possession and a tear of satanism sprang up in the ivillage. Suspicion spread, causing punishment and death to take toll on the innocent as well as those who were guilty of witchcraft. Pastor Dautenhahn of St. Peter , Lutheran'Church in St. Joseph has definite feelings about devil wor- ship today. . I think it's getting veryserious. People are rebelling against God, so their next power- Iul figure is the devil. He can be overcome by Christ. but he has power and can do strange . things. ' Alot of this hardrock music is orlented into! devil worship, he added; There's more pornogra V phy in music than we find in books and movies.

I think there's something to it, Steward stated. A fellow report- ed it to the sheriff. We also got a wire from the San Francisco po lice that there were cult groups roaming around. I don't.think there's anything going on, Pat Brage, a student in Ragland's class; stated. The real name for a meeting at witch- es is 'Sabat.' They wrote lSabeth' on the cave. Also, the crosses weren't upside down in the pic- ture I saw of the cave. True witches would have painted them upside down. People just prefer to believe in black mag- lo. I think it's a bunch of kids playing a game, said Judith Hig- gins, a student who looked at I the cave.- There was goat dung on a mound in the cave, but- someone could have made it look like a sacrifice. At the end of one room in the cave was what looked like an altar. But the path to the cave is pretty worn and kids have known about it for a long time. A I went to the open grave at the old German cemetary and it was just a hole. It didn't have sides to it like a streshly dug grave. It wasn't very, long. I don't know it there's something to it or not. It's hard to say. - Occult activity is a controverJ sial subject and its existence in St. Joseph remains enshrouded in ' mystery. Some people have cho sen to believe in it while others have chosen to ignore it. The cave and open grave are realities. The circumstances sur- rounding them remain unan- swered. CultsM3 Organized Crime A student fihds himself ravaged and twisted in organized crime because his financial needs are such a burden Not many people support themselves through or- ganized crime, but one student does in order to alle viate his financial burdens. The following is about a psychology major who supports himself by hustling merchandise and services. Joe Jones mot his real namey makes an average 01' $200-$800 a week. When filing taxes though, he files only the funds he has made legally. His occupa tion is organized crime. He makes silencers for guns and arrangements for bombs that can be set off in cars, books, presents in the mail, flash lights. or light switches. He is never directly involved himself but is hired by businessmen, insurance agents, and other various clients. Some of the buildings in down town St. Joseph have been burnt down for Insur- ance profits because of the urban renewal projects. However, these torchings have been classified as accidents. Joe also sells jewelry for profit, getting his mer- chandise mainly from St. Joseph and Kansas City. He often sells this jewelry at a more affordable price by accepting tradeins on other gold. This gold is lljunked, or in simpler terms, melted down. Howev- er, Joe is not directly involved at this point. He has never broken into a store. But by dropping a couple hundred dollars on the floor behind the counter, he can persuade many clerks to give out information on exits, security systems and supply oth er connections. Incidentally, law states that when money hits the . ground, it is considered to be dead. Technically, that means that nothing was bought. Something was given away and someone else, Ohe intormantt found some money. The fact that Joe comes from a wealthy family, who suspects nothing of his activities. may surprise you. Since he always had everything he wanted, he became bored and started engaging in criminal ac- tlvitles. Due to this lack of adventure, he started hustling at age 14. He was introduced to the bust ness by an ex-Chemistry professor from Berkley. He hustles only out of monetary need and still has no criminal record. Contrary to what one might believe.

Instead, it became an almost no one came affair. Only five teams participated. Intramural Coordinator Faye Cromwell stated, I was disap- pointed in the turnout. I expect- ed 15 to 20 teams. The people who weren't there were missing a lot of fun. However, she said all who participated had an en joyable time. A team consisted of two men and two women. The teams par- ticipating in the Homecoming Spectacular were Phi Sigma Epsilon, Outlaws, Science 8l Math- ematics, Lambda Chi Alpha, and UKB. One of the games was called Flour Power. The object of the game was to see how many pennies the team could find in a barrel of flour within a one minute time limit. Lambda Chi Al- pha won this event by finding $1.80. I was disappointed in the turnout. I expected 15 to 20 teams. The people who werentf there were missing a lot of fun. A game that challenged the player's senses was the Blind Man Football. Three of the team members were blindfolded. and were timed to see how long it took to hike the ball, set it on the tee, and kick it. The whole time they were verbally instructed by the fourth team member. It took Science 8c Mathematics only 55.1 seconds to kick the ball. UKB won the Wacky Relay in 28.6 seconds. This consisted of four races starting with one team member and adding a new one for each relay. A fun-tilled event was the Dance Balloon-a-thon. Music was played while a couple danced. Teammates blew up balloons and placed them be- tween the dancing couple. The October By Karen McKernan October lntramurals began with the two-on-two coed basketball , competition.

The Science and Math team displayed its shooting ability in the Trapshooting contest by cap- turing all three matches in the Menls, Women's, and Coed divi- slons.

FIOClT Building: A Tradition By Janice Fadden Building a tlwinning float is primarily every organi- zation's goal during the Homecoming celebrations. Each organization has its own unique float, but for the Phi Sigma Epsilon fraternity, building their first place float was a repeat performance from last year There are several steps that were taken by the Phi Sig fraternity in completing their winning float, each of which took several hours and a lot of cooperation to achieve. The bed from which the fraternity built their float measured exactly 30 feet long and was built entirely by hand. l'We have used the same bed to build our float on year after year, Gary McGuire, a member of the fraternity, commented. Once the plans were drawn up, a blueprint was laid out on the float so that it could be seen where props were to be placed and scenery to be built. The chicken wire molding was the next step in construction. It was first shaped in the form of a mountain and then was used along the bottom to form a skirt. The mountain was covered with papier- mache and the skirt was stuffed with tissues. Detail work consiSted of a stereo system inside the float for sound effects, and a water wheel system. It involved a pump that carried the water into a pool V located at the far end of the float. Other detail work of brush and weeds was placed on the float andall decorations were donated by an area merchant. The final step in building the float was the floor. It was covered with a type of roof sealer with a very sandy surface that was easy to work with. If the fraternity had it to do all over again. what would they have done differently? The first thing that popped into my mind is to have been more organized and to have started ear- lier, McGuire remarked. He also explained that they probably could have had more of the mem bers working together during the earlier stages of development. 'lWe may have had our problems, but we com- pleted our float in time. l'm sure some of the other organizations had their problems as well, McGuire stated. Trouble with the float during the parade were mini- mal. The only problem encounteredwas water overflowing when the float was going uphill but members of the fraternity were pleased that every- thing else went smoothly. Float-building may seem like a waste of time for most, but for the Phi Sigs, it was an accomplishment to be proud of.

Sticks, a rock band composed of seven percussion ensemble members, won the overall championship, with the song All I Ever Wanted by Santana. Division winners were each awarded trophies. They were Charleen Ptander, vocal music; Marshal Gordan. instrumental mu- sic, and MWSC cheerleaders, va- riety acts. Greg Tylor served as master of ceremonies for the College Cen- ter Board sponsored event which was produced by MWSC Theater Guild.

CARMODY Spirit Night Highlight: Big Screen 7 V By Kathy Wilson Students eager to observe Spirit Night at Friar Tuckts Pub Oct. 8 were greeted by a pre dominantly male crowd whose eYes were glued to the big screen. The second game of the World Series was in progress and was the source of most of the night's Commotion. Students who came wearing Gold Rush pins were entitled to a discount on draws of beer. Entertainment after the game was provided by fellow student Rod Powell. One student, Mike Kunz, said he went to Tuck's for the sole purpose of watching the ballgame. I didnt even know it was ttSpirit Night -maybe it needs a little more publicity. Another student, Lori Digenhardt, appeared to be hav- ing a very good time but ad- mitted that she was disappointed in such a sparse crowd. A friend of Lori's, Cindy Totten, made the comment, There are more bowlers in here than stu- dents, but we're trying to make the best of it anyway. Spirit NighV53 417w R BCld Bull By Mike Bushnell Upon first spying the lifeless ma- chine, one would think that this black leather bucking machine would not be that hard to tame. Upon boarding this mechanical beast, one begins to think differ- ently. After every short series of jerky and very erratic movements, a reconsideration of one's opinions would be in order, if there were time. However, when in midair it is very hard to think of anything except how and where one is going to hit the ground. After getting up and regaining the senses, the end of the line is not really the place to be, but the taming of the monster is in or- der. Boarding the bull once again, the attendant recognizes that this is onels second time around and reaches down to turn the knob that makes the bull even angrier than before. The ride begins and suddenly one realizes that the speed has increased along with the chances of being tossed a second time. After hitting the ground, the re- alization strikes the body's mas- ochistic chords, and they begin to take over. Why else would one be in line for the third time? Boarding the monster again, one figures it would be tamed by now, but no. That bull is anything but tamed. As fate would have it, the ground is target again for a sore body. The mechanical bull has done its job and another greenhorn has been tamed. 54lMechanical Bull Sheer determination marks the face of Jeff Elliot as he struggles to stay aboard the mechanical bull. 7 V , .

Citizens of all ages lined up along the streets to watch the gala event. The crowd seemed to enjoy the parade as many glanced around looking for a fa- miliar face.

A 39-yard field goal in the last 13 seconds gave the Lions the win. However, the game was considered a success. Rodney Stephenson rushed for 112 yards. Mike Taggart carried 19 times for over 100 yards. Greg Fetters, Griffons surprise-of-the-season quarterback, ran for 92 yards and passed for 76 yards. Pre-game festivities kicked off with the introduc- tion of Queen Kellie Anderson and her court. They were escorted to the Queen Float, built by the Jour- nalism Club, to watch the game. Kellie was presented with a bouquet of yellow roses; the others were presented with a single yel- low rose tied with black and gold ribbons. After the introductions, the Golden Griffon March- ing Band performed. Among its selections, the band played 2002 -a season favorite for football fans.

The l evening before became known as All Hallow's l Evening, or Halloween. . t People once believed ghosts roamed the earth J Oct. 31, accompanied by creepy ghouls, horrible goblins and gruesome apparitions.

The fraternity donated $1,500 to the Noyes Home from the ad- mission fees charged to go through the forest. After ex- penses are paid, the rest of the money will go into a construction and building fund for a new house to be built on their grounds. The purpose of the Halloween project was to give the communi- ty a good impression of the fra- ternity. HThe project really showed the community that we are a service group and what we can do by working together, Tim Ramseier, Haunted Forest chairman, said. The Haunted Forest was locat- ed on the Lambda Chi's proper- ty, in five acres of wooded area behind their house. Groups en- tered the forest led by a cloaked, hooded figure, who told tales of the woods as they walked along the trail. Some guests even became part of the horror scenes as they had a chance to see such classic char- acters as Frankstein, Dracula and Star Wars' Darth Vader. After all those years of having the monsters scare me, it was my turn to get even and I loved it!! Craig Gilley commented. It was not easy getting the for- est into action. The fraternity had to go to the city council to get a special permit. The permit al- lowed the residential area to be temporarily changed to an amusement park. Many hardworking hours were spent creating the forest. Fifty- two fraternity members and 30 little sisters worked for weeks in building a bridge over a creek, clearing out brush for the trail and scene areas and spreading wood chips along the trail. A lot of effort was put into the forest by both the actives and alumni, and it shows just what you can do when you work to- gether, Randy Kline, alumnus, expressed. The fraternity received a lot of help from area merchants who donated many needed materials to make the forest possible. It was a total success without a lot of complications. Everyone got a great deal of satisfaction from working in the forest, but Dan Reid, who spent long shifts in the forest, expressed the feelings of many: Hl'm glad it's over. Necking takes on a new meaning for vampire Mark Anfle and victim Carla Schultz in the Lambda Chi's forest. Haunted ForestQ Among the Ha y Bails By Kim Thogmartin Two of the Agriculture Club's tall activities were held on Nov. 8. A livestock showmanship con- test was held that morning at the college farm. Market lambs and Angus calves were exhibited by members of the Ag Club, who had spent the past two and a half weeks preparing the animals for the show. Judges were Jim Riley, voca- tional agriculture instructor at Cameron High School, and Bob Sibbit. a University at Missouri livestock specialist at Princeton. Each judge explained the rea- sons for his placings to the stu- dents and spectators, giving the competition more of a workshop atmosphere. Judging was based on showmanship ability and groom- ing of the animal for show, as well as the personal appearance of the showman. The animals, property hot the college farm, were not actually judged. Nelson Dinsmore won the pro- fessional sheep judging class, with Greg Young taking second place. The novice sheep class was won by Jeff Elliott. Sandra Ells- worth captured second place honors. Dan Elliott placed first in pro- fessional cattle showmanship and Steve Borgstadt was ranked sec- ond. Winners of the novice cattle class were Rob Sikes and Joyce Bucannan. First place winners received trophies, and showmanship canes were presented to the second place showmen. The Golden Griffons were at home that afternoon, and the winners exhibited their animals during halftime of the game against Fort Hays. Later in the day, Room 110 of the Engineering Technology building was the scene of the aII-school barnwarming. Bales of hay provided just the right setting, and most of the guests arrived in their best jeans. boots and hats. Music was provided by a tive- piece progressive country band tram Nebraska, Western Spirit. Members of the band agreed that young people have been more responsive to their music lately, especially since John Travolta introduced his version of the 'iTexas Two-Step in the movie Urban Cowboy. Agriculture instructor Kenneth Krieg and his wife Virginia were the first ones on the dance tloor, displaying some pretty fancy two-stepping at their own throughout the evening. As the sheep and cows dozed contentedly, safe from halters and curry combs . . . their train- ers moved across the floor to the tunes of Waylon and Willie. It was a day that began, and ended, among the hay bales. Missouri Western Ag Club mem- bers thought it was nice way to spend a Saturday.

I used 12 subs which I normally don't do, but I wanted a chance to see who played well together, head coach Rhesa Sumrell noted. During the following week, the Lady Griffs proceeded to lose to Northwest Missouri in a dual match. They then participated in the Central Missouri State University Invitational and reached the finals only to lose again to NWMSU in the championship game. The ladies went on to the Univer- sity of South Dakota Tournament and were lucky to come out with 0 212-1 match record. Anxious to show their critics they were better than their record indi cated, the women took six straight: Rockhurst, a doubleheod er from Wayne State and one , each from Fort Hays, Emporia, and Missouri Southern.

Volleyball f 73 By Carol Wilson To many Americans, the 1980 Presidential election was a choice between the lesser of three evils, and surveys conduct- ed prior to the election in St. Jo- V seph and across the nation re- flected the frustrated mood of the voters. For weeks prior to the elec- tions, survey atter survey indicat- ed the race between President Jimmy Carter and former Califor- nia Governor RonaId Reagan was too close to call. Most of the polls showed Carter and Reagan in a dead- even race right up until the day at the election. But after the polls closed and the ballots were counted on Nov. 4, the nation was stunned to learn that Gov. Reagan had defeated the Presi- dent 511; to 411. in the popular vote and had left Carter with only six states and the District of Columbia in the electoral col- lege. Reagan's landslide victory over the incumbent president shocked Democrat President Jimmy Carter 74 y National Election pollsters nationwide, including a few here. A survey conducted by politi cal science professors Dr. Joseph Ripple and Dr. Frank Kessler gave President Carter the eIection by a margin of .4 of 1 percentage point. Late in August, Ripple and Kessler polled 230 students in their introductory American Gov- ernment courses and found that 87 students 67.899 intended to vote for Carter while 86 students $7.490 planned to support Reagan. 'ilt Oheset beginning students are a valid barometer of the public mood, President Carter and Gov. Ronald Reagan will be separated by a mere eyelash when the ballots are counted in November, Ripple said. A Griffon News survey conduct- ed in a variety of classes during October gave Carter an even greater edge in the upcoming election. The Griffon News gave Carter a 12'1. margin lead over Gov. Independent Decision 80 Reagan. Of the 160 students sur- veyed, 47 students M490 said they favored Carter while 34 stl.L dents 6299 said they supported Reagan. Further, the Griffon News survey indicated the respondents either moderately supported the candi date of their choice or chose him because he was the lesser of three evils. Independent candidate John Anderson from Illinois claimed 24$ of the vote in the Griffon News, but most of the students who selected him did so be- cause they perceived him as the lesser of three evils. None of the national pollsters predicted a landslide victory such as Reagan captured. Three weeks prior to the elec- tion, the polling firm Yankelovich, Skelly and- White conducted a survey of 1,632 registered voters for Time magazine which indicat- ed the race was dead-even. Two weeks'later, a survey con- ducted by CBS News and the New York Times had the same re Republican Ronald Reagan t , 8 0 .e 160 students sur- udents i44im said Carter while 34 stu- aid they supported Griffon News survey respondents either ipported the candi- choice or chose he was the lesser it candidate John m lllinois claimed vote in the Griffon tst of the students a him did so be- erceived him as the evils. a national pollsters landslide victory In captured. ; prior to the elec- 9 firm Yankelovich, hite conducted a 2 registered voters :zine which indicat- was dead-even. ter, a survey can- BS News and the as had the same re- ican tan suits. The only challenge to the sur- vey results came from the Reagan campaign's polling oper- ation which claimed Reagan en- joyed a strong and consistent five- to seven-point lead over Carter throughout the last two weeks of the campaign. In a story appearing in the Dec. 1 issue of Time magazine, several national pollsters support- ed a theory offered by President Carter's polling director, Patrick Caddell. Caddell claims that Carter lost the election during the last two days of the campaign because the iranian hostage issue resurfaced in the news, again un- settled, thus reviving the public's frustration with Carter as a whole. Pollsters speculate that many Americans viewed the presiden- tial choices in terms of the lesser of three evils. t'This is the first election in which the voters real- ly didn't like either candidate much, explained Caddell. National Election y 75 ecision Compiled by Beth-ann Bartels Issues on the state and local level were also being decided upon when people went to the polls on Nov. 4. GUBERNATORIAL Mudslinging was the order of business as the governor's race got under full swing throughout the state; Democratic incumbent Joseph Teasdale and his chal- lenger, former governor Christo- pher Kit Bond, were constantly bickering back and forth. Bond accused Teasdale ot caring 76 yState, Local Elections about the elderly as long as the cameras were rolling, and al- though Teasdale promised to keep a tight reign on utilities, have you seen your gas or light bills lately? Teasdale countered by saying that Bond had never initiated a tax cut during his ad- ministration. Bondls platform was based on jobs for youth and betterment of the economy. His proposal for jobs for Missouri youth would in- clude a focus on students most in need of assistance in obtaining Local government officials watch television intently as President State and l 80 Local Results employment and retaining it after graduation. An unprepared Teasdale upset Bond in 1976 on the strength of an anti-utility pro-consumer plat- form, but, due to the landslide victory of the Republican party nationwide, Bond narrowly passed his opponent and won back his governor's title. SENATORIAL Senator Thomas Eagleton, a 51-year-old St. Louis native, had not lost an election since his first in 1960.

He supports strong welfare programs and has taken a firm stance against so- phisticated weaponry. He voted against reinstating the draft, say- lng it would make a poor man's army. Eugene McNary, a 45-year-old St. Louis County executive, went into the senatorial campaign de- nouncing Eagleton as having grown out of step with Missouri and being too liberal for his constituents. During the cam- paign he spoke out as a conser- vative purist, favoring increased defense spending, balancing the federal budget and large spend- lng cuts. The Republican candidate got an answer from the voters that cost him the senator's seat. Vo- ting went 52-48 percent against McNary, adding another triumph to Eagleton's unbroken chain of victories. PROPOSITION 11 The purpose of this proposition was to prohibit the operation of nuclear power generation sites until storage sites for the nuclear waste could be approved by the federal government. This mea- sure was approved by more than 1.2 million Missouri voters, breaking an old' record set in 1976. Nader Vargha, assistant profes- sor of the economics depart- ment, opposed the proposition. He believes that nuclear energy is the only energy alternative which is economically feasible. Other possible energy sources, such as thermal, solar or wind power, or synthetic fuels, are 'tyears away from economical use. Assistant Professor of Biology, Lee Evinger, voted for the propo- sition to pass because he feels that there are no nuclear waste dlsposal sites which are legiti- mately inspected and approved by the federal government. He feels that Proposition 11 is not a dead issue and hopes the citi- lens of Missouri will be better in- fOrmed about the pros and cons 0f nuclear waste disposal when the proposition will reappear on a future ballot. CRIMINAL JUSTICE COMPLEX The proposed $8.8 million City County Criminal Justice Complex was defeated by only two percent. Carl Butcher, a member of the planning committee and .the Criminal Justice staff, said that the voters did not understand the importance of the complex. He emphasized the need of the new complex because of the deterio- ration of the old buildings and the expense of their upkeep. At the same time, though, it would reduce the number of per- sonnel that are needed to oper- ate the complex, so new jobs would need to be created. Another election is to be held in February and then the public will hopefully be more informed ATKINS Kif Bond, vying to regain his gubernatorial title, is out stumping across the slate. and familiarized with the issue. The HNon-Partisan proposal, which allows the governor the right to select circuit judges in- stead of being elected, failed, but there is still controversy pend- ing until the next attempt to pass the plan. Amendment Three was intro- duced to give clubs additional activities and a chance to sur- vive, due to incoming revenue. Bingo was passed 70 percent statewide, with a margin of four to one. Missouri's Conservation Depart- ment is the only one in the na tion funded by a sales tax. Pas- sage of Amendment Four will allow payment of property taxes to maintain county upkeep of roads and schools. State, Local Elections y 77 Hostages: Year One By Beth-ann Bartels Three hundred and sixty-five days in captivity. One year of being held hostage. Ironically, it was also the same day that the rest of America was ex- ercising its freedom to vote and deciding who would preside over the United States; it only the hos- tages could have had those same rights. Hopes for the hostages' release rose and fell over the course of the year with their freedom seeming imminent. Power changes in Iran, demand alter- ations, and war hampered hopes for any immediate release of the Americans. From that memorable day, Nov. 4, 1979, the one-year ordeal unfolded like this: Nov. 4, 1979-lranian militants storm the United States Embassy, take 63 American prisoners and de mand the return of the Shah.

Jackie Hamlin Putting together a good production is not always as easy as it may seem. It involves hard work from many individuals, each of whom has a special talent that contributes to the final product-a reproduction of a play. My Three Angels, 0 comedy by Sam and Bella Spewack which opened Nov. 14, was no exception to the rule. Director Larry Dobbins said, Apathy is a major problem in the theatre department as it is in other areas on campus. Not many people want to get involved. Proof for this is the fact that only 30 persons tried out for the play. Most of the partici pants in this and other plays are not theatre majors. They use the plays as extracurricular activity. Even though the theatre department does not have a lot of majors, they do have a great amount Several weeks of designing, planning and practise finally pay 0 for Chuck Wailers, who plays Uncle Henry while his Nephew Paul, played by David Denman ilefo looks on during a performance of My Three Angles Uncle Henery is despised by both his neice, Marie Louise, played by Deanne Moore iabovey, and two of the comvicts, Joseph and Jules, played by Doug Henderson and Greg Tylor ibelo Wy ARMSTRONG ARMSTRONG of talent. Dobbins said, The sad thing is that by the time we get them well trained they are ready to move on to a larger school. The cast of the play consisted of Mason Heckler, who played Felix, the father; Laura Leigh Shue as the mother, Emilie; Deanne Moore as the daughter, Marie Louise. The three convicts, Joseph, Jules and Alfred were played by Doug Henderson, Gregory L. Tylor and Tom Millett respectively. Also cast were Chuck Waltersas Uncle Henry and David Denman as his nephew, Paul. The play takes place on Christmas in French Gui- ana,in 1910. The story is about a family, the Ductoles, which includes Felix, Emilie and Marie Lou ise. The family becomes triends with three convicts, Jo seph, Jules and Alfred, when they hire the convicts to repair their root. Uncle Henry who is a very greedy, unsympathetic character comes from France with his nephew Paul and threatens to take over the family business. The three angels, alias the convicts, kill Uncle Hen- ry by turning a poisionous snake loose in his room. Paul is accidentally killed also, but this is a blessing since he is like his uncle. By murdering Uncle Henry and Paul the three con- victs are now considered angels as they have saved the Ductoleis from ruin. The play was very witty in dialogue and was an in. version of morals. An unforgiveable act such as mur- der becomes an accepted and blessed thing to do in order to protect the family. But long. before the play is staged, many hours were spent in planning, designing, and constructing the production, with several jobs being done simulta- neously in many departments. Every light, every cos- tume, every line had to be perfect for the play to be a success, so crews worked dilligently for weeks, memorizing cues, repeating scenes and making at- terations so the final performance would go without problems. After auditions finished, production began with rough drafts on paper, small scale models and drawings and then construction on stage. Dobbins said that building the scenery took about six weeks. and there were no major problems with the set-buiid- ing itself. Along with the construction, other preparations needed to be made for the completed picture that was seen on opening night. Lighting, music, sound effects and props were just a few of the necessary tasks that had to be done to convey the total im- My Three Angels i 83 My Three Angels age called scenery. Meanwhile, other work was be ing done upstairs, separate and yet parralled to the construction on stage. Costumes, either made from scratch or redesigned outfits from the costume wardrobe, were fitted, cleaned and pressed. Make-up, usually designed by the actor, was prepared in sketches on paper and then practiced at dress rehearsals. Yet actors, along with their costumes and makeup had their own construc- tion and preparation that began weeks before the play opened. Blocking of their movements on stage, along with memorization of lines, were just the beginning as actors built their characters. Shue, a sophomore majoring in theatre, after memorizing her lines and cues and when she was in costume, felt more like the character, so she acted the part. Portraying the mother in My Three Angels, Shue said that I thought of all the maternal habits I've seen and I tried to imi- tate them, practising until they felt natural. The whole process of produc- tion took approximately six weeks with all facets of construc- tion coming together as an orga- nized and polished product, ready for opening night. The play ran live performances with a total estimated audience of 750. Everyone's efforts were not in vain however, as Dobbins stated that the audience was very receptive which can make or break a performance. On opening night two judges from the American College The atre Festival were in attendance. During a reception after the per- formance, the judges stated that the performers showed a lot of talent. 84 r My Three Angels Although My Three Angels was not chosen as one of the plays to be performed at the Theatre Festival in Manhatten, the theater department was award ed a Certificate of Excellence for scene design from the America ; College Theatre Festival.

He explained that in the city of about 14 million people, hous- ing is very hard to find. Both members suggested for those who go to New York to stay with friends while getting settled. The next step is to have some 8 x 10 glossy photos made and the back should be printed: ac- tor's union affiliation, telephone answering service number, pre vlous acting experience, height, weight, eye and hair color, dia- lects spoken and any other spe clal abilities. Combs emphasized listing any abilities . . . it may be ex- actly what they're toasting di- rectorsi are looking for. These photos should then be passed out to every agent and casting director possible. Both actors voiced the ditticui ty in finding just one acting job. Combs explained, For each job, there are about 1,000 to 1,500 people trying for it. In a union that boasts a mem- bership of 17,000 to 18,000, Combs said that 85$ ot the people are out of work all the time. Robbins pointed out, When a show is over, you're out of work again. You're at the bottom again. , Both members agreed that a college degree in theater is a good thing to have. Combs warned, however, not to flaunt such a degree when trying for a job. As Combs explained, It gets in your way, because you'd be more educated than the people you work for. They don't appreciate that.

Theater185 One for the Record By John Vanderpool The Griffons kicked off the sec- ond half of the season with a 41- 18 CSIC football victory over Em- poria State at Spratt Stadium. The Griffs fell behind in the ear- ly going but led 20-18 at the half. The defense dominated the sec- ond half, allowing Emporia just 44 yards as'the Griffons went on to victory, boosting their confer- ence record to 2-1. , Mike Taggart continued his tor- rid running as he ripped through the Emporia defense for 140 yards including a 75-yard TD sprint. Defensive end Tim Pepple, a senior from St. Joseph Leblond, had 13 total tackles and two tum- ble recoveries to bolster the Western defense. Arch rival Missouri Southern was the homecoming opponent for the Griffons. in what proved to be one of the disappointing mo- ments in the 1980 season, the Griffs lost on a 39-yard field goal with 13 seconds left, resulting in a 21-20 final score. The loss squelched hopes for a NAIA playoff berth as well as putting a damper on the 1980 homecoming celebration. Coach Hicktin summed it up after the game, saying, I said at the start of the season that we're a good team, not a great one. And, protecting a narrow lead isn't easy for us. The Griffons trailed at halftime, but took a 20-18 lead into the closing seconds of the game, be- Augusfana 22 Concordia 7 Evangel 13 Wayne State 34 Kearney State 45 ' Western Western Western Western Western Western Western Emporia State 18 Missouri Southern 21 Washburn 14 Piffsburg 40 Fort Hays State 28 Western Western Western 861Football fore the fatal field goal. Rodney Stephenson and Mike Taggart both went over the 100- yard mark and Robert Newhart led the Griffon defense with 18 total tackles. Missouri Western rebounded the following week in a 45-14 rout of the Washburn lchabods, as they raised their record to 5- 2-1 and 3-2 conference play. Aggressive attacking by the Western defense caused seven Washburn turnovers as the Grif- fons held the lchabods to a poul- try 12 yards rushing. Quarterback Greg Fetters ac- counted for 255 total yards, 93 rushing and 162 passing as he led the offense in a game of big plays. The Griffons carried their offen- sive arsenal to Pittsburg, Kansas to face the always tough Pitts- burg Gorillas. This weekend proved to be another low ebb in the wave of the season as Pitts- burg pounded the Gritts 40-14. It was a bad weekend all around as co-captain, Roger Roberts was hit by a car, driven by a teammate, while walking to the team bus. Tim Pepple was sidelined earlier with a knee in- ; . jury and Mike Glover was hurt in practice earlier in the week. Thus, the depleted Griffon de- tense gave up 690 yards in total offense. Stunned from the thrashing of a week earlier, the Gritts faced Fort Hays in the final game of the 1980 season. The Gritfs escaped with a 28- 28 tie to end the season at 5-3- 2. Their 3-3-1 record was good for a fifth place conference fin- ish.

The team played well enough to cause cautious opti- mism, but in the end Head Coach Gary Filbert was left out in the rain. The first half of the season start- ed out like gangbusters as the Gritts took to the home floor to engage perennial District 16 pow- er Drury College. Behind Kenny Brown's 20 points and Brian Graves' 16 rebounds, the Griffs eeked out a 6362 thriller. The Griffs again hit the home hardwood to do battle with the higth-touted Avila. The Ava- lanche came in with a 50 mark, but the Griffs sent them packing with a 80-67 thumping. Again Ken- ny Brown played well, scoring 21 and grabbing six rebounds. The CSIC opener was to be a hard fought contest, but again the Griffs came through with an 86-62 victory behind Kenny Brown's 25 points. After the game, Filbert told well wishers, I'm not to sure we deserve to be congratulated for that. None theless Filbert took the victory, and the Griffs were off to a blaz- ing 3-0 start. The homestand ended as the Griffs hit the road to face the Uni- versity of Northern Iowa. The Gritts hung on for a close 5552 win as sophomore Jim Finley popped in a pair of free throws with eight seconds left. Brian Graves led the team with 14 as the Griffs continued to march, moving to 40. The Griffs extended their road trip traveling to Atchison to play Benedictine. The story was the same as the Griffs came away with a close, threeovertime 71-70 victory. Center Kenny Brown con- tinued his early scoring punch, netting 23 while grabbing ten rebounds. The Griffs returned home with a 5-0 record looking to up their record at Tarkio's expense. How- ever, Tarkio burst their bubble as they dropped the Griffs with an 89-86 decision. Senior Arlo Vallejo hit 25 in a loosing etfort. The Team got back on track as they deteated Benedictine 84-68 behind a 25 point performance by Kenny Brown. The Griffs moved to 61 on the season and things were looking good. The Griffs stayed at home as Evangel came to town. Evangel didn't have a prayer as the Griffs won in what would prove to be their last win in a long time. Brown again led the team with 15 as the Griffs won handily, 85 73. The team then packed their bags as they took off for their yearly basketball excursion. This year they went South but found things a good bit colder there as they played Alabama-Birmingham ot the NCAA ranks. The Griffs CARMODY were totally outmatched as they lost 107-54. At one point the Blaz- ers were ahead 24-2, but Ala- bama Head Coach Gene Bartow kept things in perspective and admitted after the game, I real- ly don't have much of a guilt complex. The Griffs then moved to Orlan- do, Fla., to play the University of Florida. The Griffs stayed in the game most of the way, but Gators were too much as they took a 98-82 victory behind 75 percent shooting. The Griffs then limped back to St. Joe before ,closing out the first half of the season on the road. The Griffs next, traveled to Wayne, Neb.. tor a preview of comming attractions as Wayne State clobbered the Griffs 8558. The loss dropped the first semes- ter record to 74. Thus, like the Charlie Brown car- toon, the players started leaving, the clouds started to gather and Coach Filbert, like Charlie Brown. was left holding the ball and bit- ing his tip in anticipation of the torrential rains which would come his way in the second half of the season.

Men's Basketball y 89 Fourth Place Finish Ends A Season By Chris Roberts The women spikers served up the second half of the season by taking two of three matches at home from NWMSU, CMSU and Rockhurst. The ladies trav- eled to Joplin to lose to their archrival, Kearney State. but came on strong the next day to stake down two wins against Missouri Southern and Washburn. Their record then stood at 18-141. and their conference record at 7-1. The following week, the Lady Gritfs played below their standards and lost four matches while winning only two. The womens' competition included North east Missouri State, Nebraska Wesleyan and the Uni versity of Nebraska-Omaha. They journeyed to Pittsburg, defeated Washburn, but dropped two to Pittsburg State and Fort Hays State. At that time they had compiled an overall record of 2018-1, and dropped to third in the conference with an 8-3 record behind Pittsburg State and Kearney State, re spectively. Going into the last week of the campaign, the Lady Grills had six games left to play, including three conference matches. Coach Rhesa Sumrell, after looking at the schedule, said, We haven't played well at home this season. But the confer- ence is still open and our girls know that. The com petition will be strongePittsburg doesn't quit, they play good defense and are undefeated in ten CSIC matches. Kearney state is a solid team, they also play good defense, but I'd consider Kearney, Pitts aburg and ourselves to be equal in skill level. Empo ria, however, can always sneak up on you. , The girls took two but lost two to interconterehce opponents. Finally, the MWSC lnvitational'came along, with the ladies taking second place behind their best season rival. NWMSU. ' The season eclipsed with Missouri Western hosting the MAIAW State Tournament. On the first day of play, there seemed to be a bright spot in the sea son-Iong struggle. The girls advanced into the semi- finals without much difficulty. On the final day. the Lady Grifts met NWMSU and were dropped to conso lotion and then lost to William Woods for a fourth place finish. It was a valiant effort. The season was a struggle against one rival atter another-but the one time state champs didn't play up to previous years' glories.

We saw so many people come and go that it was hard for everyone, Michele Ramirez said. Jobs, grades and not having enough time were some reasons why we lost many. It was sad to see them leave, one member said. Though we had our difficul- ties, Tracie Hicklin commented, we managed. i'While we were losing people we kept on working harder by getting our mounts together and cheering on the team, Hicklin said. If we had a problem or some thing, we sat and talked it out, Jlll Vollintine stated. We did have our share of problems. Despite the cheerleaders' prob lems they experienced good times. This year we competed as a Squad at clinic in Memphis, Cheerful Problems Ramirez noted. We won five rib bons and took home a spirit stick.

Go Western stems from an- other jingle heard by several indi- viduals from the studio. Once the jingle tiSuper Summer was heard, the words were somewhat changed; however, the meaning remained the same. Little is known about the artist that wrote the lyrics or the artists that sing the jingle; however, the man responsible for writing the lyrics is Edward Saxe. '60 Western' is a household word around the studio, re- marked Steve Carpenter, an em ployee at KKJO. He continued, l'We have heard nothing but good comments and I believe it is good publicity. The first reaction from the disc jockeys around the studio was, Wow! We are selling athletics like we would sell soda pop. Students were aSked for their opinion of the jingle. and here are some reactions: It's pretty good, but I thought it was a little big long, remarked Brenda Reilly. I thought it was really good; it made me feel like I was at the game itself. commented Cheryl Grier. Stated George Stan ton, It was pretty good. As for the future of the jingle, the studio plans to continue using it along with different variations. It will be used for publicity and for creating excitement throughout the year. 94mm 81 Pieces Law Day Successful By Mike Bushnell Law enforcement agencies from Northwestern Missouri and Eastern Kansas came to campus to participate in Law Day, Nov. 9, sponsored by Delta Phi Upsilon. The FBI showed a continuous video tape of making arrests, survellence techniques and em- ployee requirements. Officers from the Missouri State Highway Patrol reviewed student applications and gave literature containing information on careers in the highway patrol. Public safety officials from Glad- stone also handed out informa- tion discussing law enforcement in Gladstone. The St. Joseph Police Depart- ment also participated. Canine units were brought to campus. The department demonstrated how the dogs are used in every- day police work and how the dogs are trained. The demonstra- tion also included the apprehen sion of a suspect. A polygraph unit was also dem- onstrated by the police depart- ment to show the public how the lie-detector machine works.

But during the fall semester, people had an opportunity to learn the true art of juggling. The course was taught by Jerry Reeves. 0 local realtor. The six-session class started wlth a brief history of the juggling art and then to the basics of jug- gling. Although the class was small, all of the members were juggling by the last session. Several reasons were given by students as to why they took the juggling course. Bernie Fortmeyer, a student in the class, stated, It was something different and it took my mind off of my work. Reeves' interest in juggling first started in 1954 when he and his friends would try to juggle rocks while they were working for the Highway Department. His interest In juggling wasn't rejuvenated un- til a few years ago when he was introduced to Dwayne Cunning- ham, a clown juggler for Ringling Brothers Circus, where he perfect- ed his juggling techniques. Several people had shown an interest in juggling, so Reeves contacted the college to check out the possibility of starting a' juggling class. Reeves said, 'tOriginally, I was trying to ar- range for someone from Kansas City to come to the college, but by the time the class became a reality, I was capable of teach- ing a basic juggling class my- self. The juggling course is one of many offered through the Con- tinuing Education Department. Reeves felt the class was suc- cessful and hopes that it will be offered again.

With my last regular class finished, I pre pare for that ritual known as cramming. Although I usually don't drink coffee, Mrs. Olson would be proud. I put on a pot, settle on the bed and crack open the book. DAY TWO. I wake up, fully dressed.

Not a pretty word to college administrators, faculty, and espe cially not to students who forget or are apathetic about rules. Rules are vital to the successful operation of an organization such as Missouri Western State College. Dorm rules are made to pro 104 t Expulsions EXPULSIONS m... tect students, stated Forest Hoff, Dean of Students. Everybody should know the rules because they all get the student hand- book at the beginning of the se mester. Still. rules are broken. Hoff believes that most people might break a rule on a given cir- cumstance. Some break rules in anger-they lose control. Some have broken rules all their life. For an institution as large as MWSC, there are relatively few problems that require disciplinary action. During the fall semester, the Dean of Students estimates that 150 minor offenses were dealt with, usually only requiring a verbal warning from Joe Vigliaturo, the Coordinator of Campus Housing. Minor offenses include violations such as drink- ing liquor in the dorms and hav- ing visitors past the visiting hours M it x g be h x x a t ? established in the book.

Minor offenses s such as drink- dorms and hav- the visiting hours established in the Student Hand- book. During the fall of 1980, the col- lege Judiciary Board heard four cases and the Student Conduct Committee heard two. These re sulted in four expulsions. One incident involved four stu- dents in the MWSC-Broadmoor Complex. Three males were Charged with violating college regulations in a case involving STRUBE sodomy with a female student. The girl quit school and the three male students were expelled by action of the College Judiciary Board. A fourth expulsion involved a student possessing liquor and nor- cotics in the Broadmoor dorm. The student was placed on disci- plinary probation and was re- quired to leave the Broadmoor facilities. The student was ex- pelled when he broke the rules of his probation and remained in Committee or the College Judi- ciary Board. Hotf would refer the case to a higher disciplinary group if the offense is serious enough that it might result in ex- pulsion or it it is a new and unique case that I wouldn't know how to deal with. It the Dean decides to deal with the student's case, he will in- vestigate the reported miscon. duct and consult with the stu- dent. Hoff has the authority to recommend probation, which the Still, rules are broken . . . most people might break a rule on a given circumstance. Some break rules in anger-fhe'y lose control. Some have broken rules all their life. the otf-campus dorms. Students are usually expelled for periods of one semester, one year, or two years. The students may return to the college after their expulsion period has ended. If the decision is made near the end of a semester, the student is allowed to finish, unless they will seriously disrupt the College or constitute a danger to the health, safety or welfare of the College community, as stated in the Rules of Procedure. An estimated 50 students were placed on probation last fall. Dis- ciplinary probation is defined in the Rules of Procedure in Student Disciplinary Matters as a status resulting from misconduct apart from academic performance. The student remains enrolled but under stated conditions. Proba- tion is a kind of second chance for a student. 'tVery few students who are placed on probation need to be disciplined again, according to Hoff. If the second warning is not enough to keep the student out of trouble, or the violation is of a more serious nature than a minor one, the dean of students has the authority to deal with the stu- dent personally or to refer the case to the Student Conduct student may accept or reject. If the discipline is rejected, the dean may suspend the student and the case is passed on to one of the higher groups. A formal hearing is conducted by either the Student Conduct Committee, a group of five stu- dents appointed by the college president, or the College Juduciary Board, composed of two administrators, tour faculty members and three students also appointed by the college presi- dent. The student is given due pro cess and is allowed to have a lawyer or advisor with him during the hearing. Once the decision concerning discipline is made, the student has the option to ap peal to the college president within five days after the decision has been made. The president has the power to affirm, reverse. or send the case back for further proceedings after he has re- viewed the full record of the case. Are rules meant to be broken? Can a little fun result in a conference with the dean of students? Only the nature of the incident can determine whether a student receives a mild scold- ing or an expulsion notice.

The story of Christ's birth is noth lng short of miraculous. Jesus led a solitary life. He worked in a carpenter shop until age thirty, when he became a traveling preacher. He never had a family or owned a house. He constantly gave what little he had to others. When he needed help, he turned to God for an swers. Freedom was the meaning of Christ's life and death. His love for mankind and trust in God gave him strength as he was nailed to the cross to die for our sins. An increase in depression and suicide has be come a tragic trademark of Christmas. People tend to build holiday spirits too high, only to feel a major letdown when the holiday doesn't meet their expec- tations. For people who can't spend Christmas at home, the Christmas spirit is difficult, if not impossible to muster. Spending Christmas alone is particularly depressing. Being with the family is not a guarantee of happi ness either. Families have lost enthusiasm for old- iashioned traditions: stringing popcorn to decorate the tree. making eggnog and snow ice cream and singing Christmas carols. It isn't unusual for family ar- guments to break out as a result of stress the holi- day has on family members. Commercialization could partially account for de pression around Christmas time. Our love for others ls being measured through gifts. Feelings get hurt when we spend more on one person or when one person's present is larger than another's. The love we show others as we feel pressured to force it into dollars and cents. For the average college student, whose life is in a transition period, Christmas stirs up mixed emotions. Some students share their thoughts and feelings. Christmas is giving, a time of closeness with the tamily and time for me to blow my money on every- body and not worry about it, Lloyd Mason ex- plained. Most of all, it's the birth of Christ. Some times it depresses me to see how commercialized it Is. Sheryle Altiser didn't feel a need to elaborate: Christmas, she said, is togetherness and good food. Some students weren't overly enthusiastic. I have nothing to say about Christmas, Bruce Daldrup declared. Christmas is a renewal of the spirit. regaining hope you lost during the year, Scott Pendleton sold. Christmas is a joyous time when friends and relatives get together and share their past exper- lences and discuss plans for the future. It is clearly a me of gladness and rebirth, in which all mankind are welcome to participate! The joy we experience during Christmas doesn't have to end when the holidays is over. Religious joy can and should last throughout our entire lives, mak- lng them meaningful and making Christmas time in the future as special as it was meant to be.

The doors of this home are always open, extending a hand of friendship and love. Christmas at the Noyes Home is special just as it is special in our own homes. Many people are involved in making Christmas a celebration for the children who live at the home. The Downtown Sertoma Club offers the children a shopping spree. Money is donated and the children have a day to shop for the gifts they wish to give. Wendy's and Pizza Hut also contribute to Christmas at the home by sponsoring a dinner and party. San ta Clause comes by the restuarant and brings gifts for all. The children also have their own Family Din ner and Party at the Noyes Home. They draw names and Santa comes to distribute more gifts that have been donated. Eachprogram is designed to the age of the child, as the ages vary from 4 to 18. If a child cannot go to his or her home for the holi- days, families throughout St. Joseph open their doors and include these children in their Christmas. This home is a non-profit place where children who need help can come for whatever their needs may be. If you have a group that would like to help others think about the Noyes Home next time you are hav- ing a fund raising event. They would be grateful for the assistance to keep their doors open as long as possible.

As we hurry about doing our shop plng, we sometimes forget those who are less fortunate. Each of us can give a special gift of love by donating to the various charities in St. Joseph, who are collecting tor the poor in our area. These organizations, consisting primarily of volunteers, see to it that those who are in need have a memorable holiday. Schools, churches, civic organi zations. service clubs and the welfare department are all in- volved in making Christmas come true. These groups orga- nize senior citizen parties, din- ners, gifts and Santa Clause for those who are alone for the holi- days. The Van Clubs of St. Joseph de liver food baskets to shut-ins and those who have no transporta- tion. Schools participate in a com- petition to collect canned goods which are sent to the Salvation Army. This group then sets up a store at the Naval Reserve where those that have been referred by the Welfare Department can come and pick up groceries, toys and clothing. Over 800 food baskets were distributed by the Salvation Army alone this Christmas. This group also sponsors a Toy thl Program for the prisoners at Leavenworth Penitentiary. The toys are brought up to the prison and each man can pick out the toy he would like to have sent to his child. This gives the men the gpponunity to join the Christmas Dlrlt.

The year 01 a new Presi- dent, the return of an old Gover-V nor, the hostage release, and lo cally, a fresh start with a new semester. Well, three out of four isn't bad. At the onset of every new year many people make resolutions in the hopes of improving them- selves over the next twelve months. Unfortunately, many of these become broken promises since their willpower diminishes as the weeks 90 by. Among the common resolutions ' for 1981, or any year, is losing weight, stopping smoking or' drink- Ing, trying to make better grades or quitting skipping classes. Other self-helmresolutions made by stu- dents include the following assort- ment: SEGO and depression and be happy, no matter what the situation. Cecil Bratton: Hl want to get tighter with God, and I want to lose weight. Lance Miller: I just want to get my stuff together. While some people make their self-help resolutions, others make some pretty uncommon New Year's decisions: Sandra Gay: I am never going to date my ex-boytriend again. Melanie Blagg: I will not room with a country and western music nut again. Unknown: I plan to steal pink flamingos and plant them in Dean Hoft's yard. , f 301;, ; Suzette Gunn I plan to date around more this year. Leslie McLees Budget my fin'ie Debi Ford: Don't let the job get me down. Dan Molieri: Have better control of my money. Marsha Jones: I want to get my W.S.l. TWater safety Instructor; and I want to quit cheating at Monopoly. Mike Dean: To avoid frustration Brat: I resolve to try and find my car after parties. Unknown tseveraD: New Year's resolution? At the time, I just re solved just to make it home from the New Year's Eve Party! Among the many people who made resolutions, there are hun dreds that, like Dr. David John, said, Resolutions?

The irony of this statement would not be realized until the evening of December 8. For it was on that evening, outside the Dakota apartment building locat- ed In the upper west side of Manhatten, that John Lennon was murdered by a mentally deranged fan. People all around the world were shocked at the news of Lennonls tragic death. Countless radio stations played hours upon hours of Beatles and John Lennon music in honor of the man who contributed so much to the de velopment of rock music. Even radio stations in the Soviet Union, who usually aren't allowed to play Western music, paid their tri- bute to the man many called a musical prophet. Numerous fans flocked to the Dakota apartment to mourn the death of their musi- cal demigod. A journalist expressed his view of the situation: The entire world must bear the loss of John Lennon, but New York must bear the shame. John Lennon was born in Liver- pool, England, October 9, 1940. His father left home to become a seaman, and his mother, incapa- ble of caring for him, turned John over to his aunt and uncle when he was four and a half years old. John met Paul McCartney in 1956 at a church festival. The next Year. the two formed their first band, the Nurk Twins. In 1958, John formed a band called the Quarrymen. At this time he agreed to audition a friend of Paul's, George Harrison. In 1959, the Quarrymen split up but later regrouped as Johnny and the Moondogs and then as the Silver Beatles. They played in various clubs throughout Liver- pool and Hamburg and by 1960 they had become the talk of Liverpool. They changed their name to the Beatles and in 1962 Richard Starkey-or Ringo Starr-re- placed Pete Best as the Beatles' drummer. The rest of the story is rock-n-roll history as the Beatles rocketed to fame and enjoyed almost unlimited success with their numerous albums and films. The Beatles disbanded in 1970, much to the dismay of their mil- lions of fans. There have been many explanations as to why this group parted ways. Some say it was their superstardom that caused them to become unable to work with each other. Others claim it was the emergence of Yoko Ono, John Lennon's wife, that split them up. Lennon, in an interview in the January 1981 issue of Playboy magazine, commented, I had at ready begun to want to leave, Police oftlcers gather evidence at the Da kota apartment building where John - Lennon was murdered. .d ew-a.w-me .- AP but when I met Yoko is like when you meet your first woman. You leave the guys at the bar. You donlt go play football anymore. You don't go play snooker or bil- Iiards. Maybe some guys do it on Friday night or something, but once I found the woman, the boys became of no interest what- soever other than being old school friends. It is hard to characterize a man like John Lennon. Some say he was a dreamer. Some called him a genius. Nevertheless, he was a man who took a firm stand for his beliefs. His method of expression was music and he left behind many songs for us to enjoy. Perhaps the best way to under- stand John Lennon is to listen to the music he wrote and decide for yourself what he was trying to say.

All traits that are commonly be lieved to be held by men-until the past few years. The Lady Griffons, along with the above assets, bring a female touch to the game of basketball, and it has been showing positive results for the lady players. The 'lfemale touch paid off when the Lady Grif- fons opened their season in Minnesota at the Morehead State Invitational tournament taking third .. Q .4 a m place. The next tournament took the lady cagers to Ful- ton, Mo.. in the William Woods Turkey Tourney. We beat William Woods, the defending MAIAW champs. They are one of our toughest competitors and we captured the tournament championship. Coach Debbie Bumpus stated. in everything they do, they show that they possess that female touch, both on the court and off. 'iWe are ladies and we like to present ourselves that way, too, Bumpus explained. We take pride in the way we look because we want to make a good impression. We know there are people out there who are always judging us, so we try to look our best. I think that, compared to other teams, we look like ladies. We don't allow the girls to wear jeans on ' trips. Also, we don't allow them to bad mouth other teams because we want to present ourselves as la- dies In our mannerisms, Bumpus stated. The Lady Griffons have experienced a new squad maturity and unity that are the makings of a winning team. Our team is so much closer this year and we lack selfishness. This makes me feel good because we have much more confidence, Kay Barton, team member said. The team is doing well and we are all closer. Not one person on the squad is better than any other. We all feel that our winning is a joint effort, Julie Sherwood explained. The comparison of men's basketball to ladies' is al. ways a question. Many wonder if winning means the same to women as it does to men. The girls play and love the game just as much as the men do. Bumpus said. I think one can see the difference in the way girls express themselves on the court from the way the guys do. Sometimes the girls question their ag- gressiveness. Ten years ago people were looking at women's sports from a different standpoint because women didnt have the opportunities then that they do now, Bumpus concluded. The opportunity for women to prove themselves has broadened over the past few years, so now they can do it with more ease and not be ques- tioned about their feminity. The season looks good so far for the Lady Griffons largely due to teamwork, unity, and that golden fe male touch. Laura Hanson, center for the Lady Griffs, shoots for two against UMKC. Ladies' Basketbath 13 .awe-.....r-.nx .. .- , ii i i: l l l i l A al-l The Academic Athlete By Lee Stubbs I play football; what more do you want? Campus officials across the country are being faced with this question and many others of the same kind. All are in agreement that a major concern and problem of col- leges and college students alike Is the academic athlete. Should an athlete receive spe clal privileges and exemptions that other students don't receive just because heyshe is an ath- lete, more specifically, a scholar- ship athlete? For example, how many P.E. majors are also school athletes? How many athletes car- ry the required twelve or more hours? How many athletes attend class regularly? The answer to all of the above Is that nearly all do. But the small percentage of athletes who don't carry twelve or more hours and who don't attend class regu- larly is growing larger every year. To get a little more back- ground information. here are some specifics from the MWSC Academic Catalog: - Believlng that athletics and academics are compatible and to a large extent complimentary, the college is committed to the concept of the student-athlete. MWSC athletes are, therefore, ex- pected to succeed academical- ly. - Each scholarship athlete will be required to attend regularly. An athletic scholarship is de- signed to increase the possibility of a dual committment to aca demics and athletics by reducing the necessity for part-time em- ployment. Its ultimate justification. then, resides in its capacity to permit the student-athlete to meet academic expectations while encouraging participation in an intercollegiate sport. - Student-athletes must learn to be selt-reliant and to accept personal responsibility for their present and future development. The institution's representatives will assist, but not 'do for' the ath- lete. - At no time will instructors be asked to give an athlete special favors, though athletes will be given the same consideration as other students. To assure that athletes do meet the requirement, the NAIA Academic Board has a set table of GPA's that must be kept. The table is based on cumulative hours. What many athletes and coaches are now complaining about is the fact that MWSC also has a table of this sort and the requirements are a little stltter. I'm sure if all the other col- leges across the country think that the NAIA requirements are good enough for their schools, they're sure as hell good enough for MWSC, exclaimed one dis gruntled athlete, twho chose not to be identitledt in reference to the following: it a student has ac- cumulated 30 credit hours, the NAIA requires at least a 1.6 GPA without being put on probation. On the other hand, an MWSC stu- dent who has 30 cumulative credit hours must maintain a 1.833 GPA to escape probation, according to the Sports Aca. demic Board here. Is this fair to an MWSC athlete? i don't think it's fair, continued the unnamed athlete. I spend a heck of a lot of time the year around trying to get into and stay in shape because that's what the coach says. It i don't, I'm kicked off the team and I lose my scholarship and don't go to school at all. Then there are these guys from academic coun seling coming up to me and say- ing, 'You'd better watch your grades, man, or you're gonna lose your scholarship.' What -do they want: I'm not Superman. Are athletes being pressured too little? Are their grade require ments too strict or are they too slack? Should coaches change. athletes change, or should grade requirements change? These are just a few of the questions that must be consid- ered. Perhaps everyone Involved should take a closer look at the last paragraph concerning thletes in the academic hand- book: Coaches and administra tors will in part be evaluated on the basis of their success in im plementing these principles as stated above rather than solely on the wonlost records of their respective teams. It is imperative that the university, its representa tives and its athletes strive and work together to uphold the fol lowing NAlA code characteriza tion of athletics-'a sacred trust. a matter of pride and joy. of tul tlllment and experience-not merely a means of livelihood.' 114Nhe Academic Athlete t . -H . .A . a-gr . .........,.,.r. -v..-...,A-.-, --.wrau'-'Mewmm- m...e,.'...vywuu-r ,. ...,. ate the Sports Aca- :re. 1n MWSC athlete?

Two organizations found snow, however: the Baptist Student .Union and ROTC Cadets. Both groups went on ski trips over the semester break. Another group of 24 people, organized by Dr. Charles Erickson, was not so fortunate. Their trip to Breckenridge, Colo. was cancelled due to lack of snow. All facilities there were closed. Everyone was really disap- pointed, Erickson said, but all we could do was refund their de posits. We'll try again next year, he added. In the case at the BSU, whose trip lasted from Jan. 4 to 8, the snow was found in Santa Fe. New Mexico. It wasn't real snow, how- s WM Hlllrz ever, as it hadn't snowed there since October, 1980-it was man made. Nevertheless, it was snow, ,and according 1'0 Steve Maberry, BSU president, there was good skiing to be had. Twenty-six students went, five were from here; students from Maryville and William Jewell made up the remainder. They spent the first day shopping and taking ski lessons, and on the second day'they hit the slopes for two days of skiing. Also, each night's agenda consisted of Bible studies and fellowship classes. When asked it anyone was in- jured, Steve replied, Knowing we were beginners, we were really worried that somebody would get seriously hurt, but all we came back with were a few sprained thumbs and some sore ankles. The ROTC enjoyed some real snow as they were flown to the Loveland Basin area near Den- ver, Colo., by the Air National Guard. Forty-one students went, including 28 from here and thir- teen from Maryville. The students received a tour of the Fitzsimmons Army Medical Center where they also had free housing and transportation.

This was a common question asked during the iinew Registration program this spring. Registration was held in the new Field House for the first time. Though some students, faculty and administrators had mixed emotions about the operation, most say it was a success. The decision to move the pro gram from the College Center to, the Field House was made last Faculty and administrators who worked at the tables and booths felt that they were more efficient in their jobs because of the extra space the Field House provided. Students were not crowded around the tables. so there was less stress placed on the workers and they were able to move more quickly. The only real problems complained of were lack of di- rectional signs and long lines at the cashiers' booths. Cindy Totten, senior, said, The It worked for better than I had hoped it would. tall by Dr. M.O. Looney and the College Governance Association. They felt that there would be more room and that registration would no longer clash with the activities of the College Center. Parts of the Field House were not complete, but registration was still possible. George Ashworth head of registration, said, 'tlt worked for better than I had hoped it would even though there were some rooms we couldn't use yet. When we get all our space, it should work even better. Kathy Hoy, freshman, said, The last time I registered over at the cafeteria it took me more than two hours. This time I got through much faster and it wasn't nearly as crowded. Ashworth said that the average time ran from 25 to 35 minutes for the 3,800 students who regis- tered.

It was really a long wait and I've heard other people say the same thing. Other than that I thought it was much better. Ashworth said that the tee col- lection booths will be moved to other rooms once the entire building is finished and that should eliminate the problem of long waiting lines. Registration in the Field House was quite a new experience for everyone involved, but there are even greater changes in pro- cess. Ashworth said that a new pro gram for preregistration will go into effect as soon as a comput- er is received with the aid of government funds. He said that it should take place within the next three or four years. Changes will always be made from on thing to another, hoping that each new one will be bet- ter. New registration was sup posed to be better than the old. Maybe it was, maybe it was not. It certainly had its problems and changes will hopefully be made.

From the time that the 50 men and two women landed on American soil in Freedom One. the plane that carried them from Wiesbaden, West' Germany, the yellow ribbons adorned every- thing. Ribbons were tied on the nose of a D09 plane, on the Houston airport control tower, on five miles of telephone pales along ll- linois interstate 74, on buildings, billboards, and people every- where. On a more somber note, horror stories began to surface of their treatment in Iran as soon as the hostages landed in West Ger- many. They were threatened with execution, were terrorized with beatings, and subjected to vi- cious mind games. Hostages told of being lined up, blindfolded, and hearing Guns cocked behind them.

Only when he Got to West Germany did he find he had been tied to. Militants would open envelopes addressed to the hostages, re move the letters, till the enve- lopes with propaganda material, reseal them, and give them to the hostages. The original letters were destroyed without the has- tages ever seeing them. ' In this way, the hostages were also deprived of much news from home, about current events and themselves. Some began to feel forgotten, believing that America did not care. 44 HHSIAEIS I'IIIIHISHI All the doubt vanished, howev- er, when they landed in Wiesbaden. Crowds wearing yel- low ribbons shouted, USA! USA! and We love you! The ex-hostages were next tak- en to West Point to spend time with their families; then, several days later, they were honored at the White House. Then the real celebrations be gan. New York City hosted a ticker- s a .....e--..e--W tape parade-the first in years. Hundreds of thousands of people turned out in yellow ribbons, cheering, carrying flags and signs, welcoming the ex-hostages home. Throughout America, high school bands and entire towns welcomed home their long-miss- ing friends, neighbors, and rela- tives. The wife of a Methodist minister in Homer, L, hometown at Ma- rine Sgt. Paul Lewis, rang the church belt 444 times in celebra- tion of the release. Also, freebies poured down upon the ex-hostages as soon as they were released. Live lobsters from Maine, pizzas and a case of champagne from London were sent to the Wiesbaden hospital where the ex-hostages were un- dergoing medical examinations. Also included in the long line of gifts were lifetime passes to regular-season baseball games; expensepaid trips to Florida, Cali- tornia, Tahiti or Hawaii; Persian rugs valued at $1,000 each; tray tables designed for President Reagan's inaugural balls; and free airline travel anywhere for hostages and their families for up to a month after their return.

Reagan was sworn in as the 40th president of the United States. Possibly never before had a presidential inauguration been so dominated by other events as that of Jan. 20. Less than 30 minutes after the ceremony, while speaking to congressional leaders at a tradi- tional luncheon, Reagan an- nounced that the captives had been freed and were out of Iranian air space. The oath of office was adminis- tered by Chief Justice Warren Burger as Reagan placed his left hand on a Bible once belonging to his mother. At 69, Reagan became the oldest man ever to take the oath. The inaugural was moved from the traditional site at the east front of the Capitol to the west side, with a view towards the Washington Monument and the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials.

In the afternoon, one of the longest inaugural parades was held. President and Mrs. Reagan rode in a limousine at the head of the parade. then watched the other units from the inaugural viewing stand, built especially for the occasion in front of the White House.

He plans to explore new hori- zons in various areas. In educa- . E?tion, he seeks to have children taught the basic learning skills.

The group's concert on Jan. 21 was like l'coming home for the performers and the audience alike. Shooting Star is better known to St. Joseph people as the great band that used to sing at the Breezeway over in Kansas. Natalie Thompson, senior, said, It was really nice being able to see Shooting Star right here in town instead of having to travel to another state to hear them perform. The band is relatively new to 124l5hooting Star . A a .. .-.. .A .. ...y-v m.h--aMNM.-W the music world, but they are moving up quickly. With the new switch back to Rock 'n Roll, Shooting Star fits right in. They played toe tappin' and hand clappint songs. Shooting Star not only played Rock 'n Roll, but they gave it a different twist. It was unusual to see an electric violin in a band that played that kind of music. And the five men who make up the group all seem multi-talented. They moved from instrument to in- strument throughout the perfor- mance. Their double encore show in- cluded such hits as 'tLast Chance, 'tBring It On and l'Don't Stop. Shooting Star was pleased and excited when the crowd would not let them quit. They went as far as to invite the whole audience over to the Breezeway after the show for more good times. Another band, also new to fame, opened the show. Secrets gave a 45 minute performance including their hit Put on Your Uniform.',' Shelly Bachman, sophomore, said, The concert was great.

Our college just is not that big and is not overly famous for much. But this past year, 19 peo- ple, led by Dennis Rogers, put the college on the proverbial map. And it wasnot for basket- ball, football, or baseball nor was it for anything strictly academic. Keep guessing, right? Given up? It was musical; that's right, musi- cal. The Marching Pechssion Sec- tion traveled to Chicago, Ill. and competed with such universities and colleges as the University of l I; l r Rolling in Chicago Illinois, which has an enrollment of nearly nine times that of Mis- souri Western. But the fact that they were obviously outmanned did not seem to bother the per- cussionists as they astounded the six judges and the Chicago audi- ence with their talent and protes- sionalism in their performance. Missouri Western was awarded second-place, only 1.5 points be hind first-place illinois. Dennis Rogers, a native of Kan- sas City, is chairman of the Music Department and director of Per- cussion. Rogers explained, The trip was a great success for us and the college, as well as for the state of Missouri. This competi- tion proves that there is quality education taking place in Missou- ri, and now several music depart- ments in the nation are certainly beginning to recognize this. Rogers went on to say, My 5m dents and I were not intimidated by the University of Illinois with on enrollment of over 35,000 stu- dents compared to a little over 4,000 students enrolled here. We felt we could compete with any university in the nation. The re sults of the competition certainly proved this to be true. But the judges were not the only ones impressed with their performance. Gary Smith, the band director of the University of Illinois, said, This is one of the best college sections l have run into, and I have seen a lot of them. The members of the percussion ensemble are Marshall Gordon, Mark Malone, Garry Adrian, Tim Turner, Mark Elting, Kent Rausch, Bobby Coomes, Mike Tope, Shane Proctor, Dan Taylor, Darryl 126tPercussion Ensemble Cobb, Craig Me- Brian Turner, Do Gregg, Rob 5 Dellinger and T Many of these st in the Marching B In the case of e not only parti- marching ban- teaches percussi- he doesn't do it but rather for hi enjoyment and t teaching others.

In the case of Garry Adrian, he not only participates in the marching band but he also teaches percussion. He said that he doesn't do it for the money, but rather for his own personal enjoyment and the enjoyment of teaching others. in preparation for a half-time show the band spends anywhere from five to twelve hours practic- ing a week, Garry remarked. Just imagine what they had to do for the contest-whewll the Percussion Ensemble performs before the Kenesis concert in the College Center doing the routine they did in Chicago. The Concert of Dance, in its seventh year under the direction of Vicki Keegstra, was, as before, different than the previous years. The concert, performed and produced by the Dance Com- pany, began with a piece called Opening, which was more or less a warm-up exercise. This was followed by Haunting, based on a Carly Simon tune with the theme there's always someone haunting someone. Next came Corral Holiday, a featured piece from Rodeo by Aaron Copland-very western, very energetic.

The next piece performed was one of unique moderness titled Seven members at the Dance Company d'OD to their knees in the opening num- ber of the Concert of Dance. Calling Occupants. The central theme of this was that of ano nymity and loneliness. The next three productions were White Bird -about a bird who wants his freedom to be creative, Born Again -a modern love duet, and Stop -an upbeated, jazzy rendition of the Cheap Trick song Can't Stop the Music. A 15minute intermission for set and costume change followed. Leading off the second half of the concert was Bombay Call- ing -a piece the dance com- pany learned at Western Michi- gan that was very modern and geometric. The next production was a jazzy tune called 'tFame -taken from the movie of like title. The piece that followed was one of visual wonderment-llFree Fall provided the audience with con- stant visual stimulation. Basically a duet that was electronically ac- companied, it consisted of con- stant shape, volume, density, free fall, balance, and counter- balance movement. i'ln the Bag, perhaps the strangest of the lot, was per- formed with the dancers in body- sized bags. The whole production was one of ever-changing shapes as the dancers moved in- side the bags of their own free will. This piece also featured an excellent improvi'sitional percus- sion accompaniment by Rod Lin- coln. The concert ended with Erotica -a portion of the song Take Off With Us from the mov- ie All That Jazz. The Dance Company allows community and high school as well as college members to per- form and explore their skills in choreography, dancing, and in a sense, acting. The Concert of Dance takes all these new- found skills and puts them all to gether for a night of fine enter- tainment. Concert of Dancet 127 A Ne W Horizon By Lee Stubbs Eerie, white, macabre. Strange ly mysterious and ever present. Never moving, never breathing. Staring but not seeing. These and other prophetic phrases can be used to describe the gallery -o series of statu- esque sculptures located this month in the front lobby of the Fine Arts Building. These sculptures mark the be ginning of a new horizon in the Art Department, according to Dr. Bill Eickhorst of the Art Depart- ment. In the post we have tried var- ious ways of expressing the many different forms of contem- porary and abstract art. As a general rule, these have not been accepted by most people on campus mainly because they aren't cultured or educated enough to appreciate or under- stand these forms of art. I think this more open approach to the arts will appeal to MWSC stu- dents. The main reason they will op peol to students is that the sculp tures are made of students-liter- olly mode of students! Beginning and advanced art students in Art mode sculptures of each other using a technique developed by George Segol, a famous contemporary American sculptor who is interested in the idea of cold and stark environ- ment and its effect on people. The students, taught by Jane Nelson, thought it would be fun, so they did it, Eickhorst said. Why was this so particularly in- teresting and fun? Well, it you can imagine your- self being wrapped in a sheet of plaster of poris like a mummy for maybe two hours at a time, then you get the idea. To get into a more detailed de scription, the students first put 428ySculpture Exhibit Vaseline on the body or facial skin that would be covered, got into a comfortable position, and then found themselves being sealed in with plaster of poriscrott-gouze which is im- pregnated with plaster of poris. When molding the face, small straws were placed in the nostrils of the students so that they could breathe while waiting for the cost to dry.

They are pretty strange look- ing, chuckled Eickhorst. Then he added, But they're just another form of art. i think this will go over really big with the students because it intrigues them so much. Plus, we have a cultural and educational obligation to the Fine Arts Department, the col lege, and the community. Sculpture ExhibiV 129 e Western wear has traditionally been worn by what some individuals affectionately call hicks. Likewise, some of those kids have looked at those wearing prepschool wear, or the preppy look, and called them snobs. But, that is all in the past. Today, the western and preppy looks are both in. Randy Rowland, buyer at A. J. August menswear, compares preppy and western wear. The preppy's look is similar to the traditional look. it consists of shetland sweaters, button down oxford shirts, cordovan penny loafers, straight leg Levi's with the button down fly, and crew neck sweaters. One main difference between the traditional and the preppy look is that, with the preppy look, tweed sport coats are worn and with traditional look, and pin stripes are worn, he said. The real western look of the early American cowboy is the pearl snap buttons, gingham shirts, and straight leg jeans with diamond-shaped belt loops Rowland said, Mostly what people wear now is what is called the drug store cowboy look. The shirt colors are toned down and the yokes are of the same color. The shirts of the early American cow- boy had contrasting yokes. Feathers on cowboy hats are of the drug store cowboy look because Indians were the only ones back in the days of the early American who wore feathers, he concluded. One reason that the choice between preppy and western is difficult is due to the fact that many claimed that both fashions are comfortable. I wear preppy fashions because they're very comfortable, Shelly Hicklin said. Also the clothing fits together and coordinates well. Marlye Wiggs, an avid wearer of the preppy fash ions, finds that a person can feel dressed up and comfortable at the same time. She said, Really, the preppy look is polished; a person can look dressed up without wearing high heels and a dress. How do western wearers feel about their choice of fashion? What helps many to choose the western look over preppie? til started wearing western attire about 13 years Delayne Wilson, a traditional western dresser, wears a Stetson, jeans and boots.

I wear boots all of the time because they're so comfortable, and they'll contour to your feet. They even offer some support, Wilson explained. Bonnie Bashor, owner of the BBar-7 Western Store, explained that some men wear boots for medical problems. Many doctors are recommending that people wear cowboy boots it they have spinal problems. This takes the weight off of the back and puts it on the balls of the feet. Once you get into a pair of cowboy boots you don't even want to take them off, she laughed. Carol Crouser of St. Joseph Boot and Saddle said, Here in St. Joseph many people are mixing the two looks together. Young girls are wearing the gingham prairie skirts. From the Denver market we ordered prairie flounced skirts in muted plaids and ging- hams, Crouser commented. The downtown mail has been the scene for many mixed fashions in preppy and western wear. I saw a girl wearing a very preppy skirt with cow- boy boots. At first I thought that it looked strange, but after I thought about it, the look gave me a new idea. Now. I've started mixing both my preppy and western wear. a student said. Peer pressure. the need to fit in, and appreciat- ing clothes are three reasons why I wear the preppy look, John Hawley stated. Don Colbock, one of the owners of Harold's de partment store, felt that economics and trying to be different were two factors determining. which look to wear. Many students have turned to both looks be cause anytime the economic situation gets tougher the fashions become more conservative, Colboch explained. So say goodbye to hicks. goodbye to snobs, and hello to the old looks that are new: country and preppy.

From Your Valentine By Kim Wiggs Roses are red. violets are blue, sugar is sweet, and so are you. Guess Who? St. Valentine's Day is believed to have gotten its name from a Christian martyr named Valentine, who was beheaded in AD. 269. There is a legend that says while Valentine was im- prisoned he fell in love with the jailer's daughter. On the night before he was killed, he sent her a letter which he signed, From Your Valentine. Voila! The first valentine. Valentine's Day has become the second most popular holiday in the United States, according to the Postal Service. topped only by Christmas. But the holiday has lost some of its meaning for a lot of stu- dents on our campus. Michael Kunz, senior, said, The older you get, the less meaning Valentine's Day has. It's a day for sweethearts and lovers. And unless you have a girlfriend or boyfriend, you just really don't think about it too much. In grade school, mothers brought red and white cupcakes, heart candies, little suckers and cherry punch. We sat around for hours stuffing our faces and opening our valentine cards. But in college, what is there to do? A few organizations on campus put forth an effort for Valentines Day. The Griffon News printed Valentine Lines. Tau Kappa Epsilon Little Sisters sold carnations. Lambda Chi Alpha had Voientunes. And the College Center Board sponsored a dance. The annual Sweetheart Dance, held Feb. 6. was at the Ramada Inn with the band Liquid Fire. The 'dance was a success, but there was some question as to whether it had anything to do with Valentine's Day. Robert Newhart, junior, said, The dance was more like a Winter Homecoming Dance for basket- ball. If it had been closer to Valentine's Day, it might have seemed more like Valentine's Day Dance. Carla Flater. sophomore, said The candles were red and the tablecloths were red. but other than that I couldn't have told you it had anything to do with Valentine's Day. There should have been a court setting or something for the queen since she sort of symbolizes Valentine's Day for the students. The Sweetheart Queen and her attendants were announced at the basketball game which preced- ed the dance. Marsha Siayden, Sweetheart Queen, said, Being chosen by the students was an honor that I never thought I would receive. I think at special people on Valentines Day and this year everyone was special to me. Cindy Price. flrst runner up, said, I felt privileged 132 tValentine's to be running for queen. Valentine's Day is a very special holiday. I think it could have meant a lot more tor students If there had been more activities on campus. Other attendants were Sally Lenz, Lori Knuth and Julie Boswell. Lenz said, I was really happy to be involved in our campus' celebration of Valentine's Day, but I think the holiday is losing Its meaning. It's becoming too commercialized. People are almost pushed into buying things and the real meaning of love isn't be hind it. The most elaborate and beautiful valentine cards were made in the late 1700's.

Valentines Day Is for expressing love. if more people knew the true meaning of the day, we might be able to bring Ii back into perspective. Through our day-ioday grind, Valentine's Day has lost a lot of its meaning, but it still stands as a day to show love and caring towards friends and family. If Mr. Valentine of AD. 269 were to come back to day on Feb. 14, I'm sure he would be surprised oi the commotion he and the joiler's daughter started.

Whether it is a one-year certificate, an associate degree, a 8.8. or a B.A. degree, you need to have a further goal in mind. What are you going to do after you graduate? Success after graduation be- gins with your goal as a fresh- man. Many freshmen enter col- lege with no career objective in mlnd. They may wander aimless- ly through college, taking 134yAtter Graduation courses here and there that look good to them, but are not leading them to achieve a goal. These students need the services of the Counseling Center. Marvin McDonald, the director of counseling and testing, Bob Hines and Dorothy Miriani are the counselors who are ready and willing to help students with their goals. One part of the counseling center is the Career lntOrmation Center. There are four steps to career planning, beginning with a test such as the 'Career Plan- i w s V x i From Books ning Profile, which helps to reveal the individual's interests and ablli- ties. After an interpretation of this profile, the student may be bet- ter able to use the career infor- mation in the center to broaden his scope on employment in his field of interest. Once the student has chosen a career objective, he is encour- aged to seek advisement in his academic field. The instructor of the students choice will assist in choosing courses which will lead the student toward his goal.

Will you take that degree to a career or carry it with you to graduate school? Many students are finding a Master's degree essential in ob taining the job they want. Bill Cosman, director of personnel for the city of St. Joseph, believes that a graduate degree is the edge you need for many good jobs. A student wishing to go to graduate school must do most of his own work. Because of early spring deadlines at most schools, one student advises others to write early to apply to graduate school. The Counseling Center administers the Graduate Record Exam tGREt and can give students a head start with a copy of tiGraduate School Guide, which gives information on schools in the Midwest. Addi- tional information may be found in the various departments. One drawback to applying to many colleges is that the fee is $20 to $25 to apply each time, according to Steve Hower, who will graduate with a biology de gree in May. He feels that his good, broad teducationaD package here has prepared him for graduate school. It you decide to take your de gree out into the job market, the Placement office is the place to begin your job search. Behind the desk you will find Bill Kuechler, the director of place ment and off-campus services. He is a friendly and pleasant man who is anxious to help students. Kuechler has the connections to any career from aviation to 200 keeping and will assist the individ- ual student find his place in the world of work. Kuechler stresses the fact that the placement center itself does not have the jobs. We don't are A! BIG Day, Becky Anderson talks to re Dresenfafives from St. Joseph's Hospital about a nursing position. , Jumwe ate jobs here. We create oppor- tunities and then point the stu- dent in that direction. The most marketable de- grees, according to Kuechler, are in business administration, engineering and technology, computer science, management, marketing, accounting, econom- ics, education, secretarial sci- ence, nursing, and military sci- ence. Through interviews in the tall and spring and the B.I.G. Placement Day held in February, most students do find jobs after they graduate. The annual B.l.G. Placement Day brought employers from the St. Joseph and Kansas City areas. The graduates and em- ployers attending doubled from last year. The afternoon event in- volved employers conducting mini interviews with alumni and students graduating from one, two, and'four-year programs. Ted Richmond, from Armco Steel, said that, besides skills and education, employers are looking for some one who is outgoing and can talk to people. Even in the tech- nical areas, employees have to talk to people and relate to oth- ers, he explained. Even though the economic situ- ation is not promising, there are jobs for graduates. Mary Ann Lawhon of St. Joseph Hospital, said, There will always be a need for nurses. We are also in- terested in chemistry, data pro cessing, and medical technology students. Bill Cosman, the director of per- sonnel tor the city of St. Joseph, observed that ttSt. Joseph resi- dents have a strong desire to stay here even at a lower sala- ry. Where are you headed after graduation? If you have taken the time to make the proper planning before your final semes- ter, then your move into graduate school or the job mar- ket should prove a successful ohe. .,,. pg-wa-WP ,,, - 'Packaging' for Employabilify By Lori Roberts Have you taken a look at the Placement office bulletin board recently? It you have, you have found job openings for students with business, secretarial, comput- er science, engineering. and technical degrees. it can be very discouraging to a student seeking a degree in English, music, art, theatre, social- science, psychology, and the other liberal arts. Can a liberal arts major find happiness in the business world? Bill Kuechler, director of place ment, thinks so. Employers are seeking people with a strong lib eral arts background. But we don't have interviewers coming in to say I'm looking for twelve English majors.' They are looking for liberal arts majors with good career preparation. The college has a type of ca- reer preparation called 'ipackaging. Kuechler is excited about the program, because he has observed a trend in career planning to encourage liberal arts students to package a minor in business with their major. This helps the liberal arts graduate to become more 'marketable' in the job marketplace. The placement and counseling centers work together and rein- force each other on the advice they give students. Every stu- dent is an individual, stresses Kuechler, and we counsel them accordingly. With proper counseling and wise choice of business-oriented courses, a liberal arts graduate will find success in the business world.

LonelinessN37 The newest sport to sweep the campus has left students . . . 0 acquetball Crazed By Lee Stubbs A new pastime is emerging at locally these days. It's called racquetball. It's a cross between tennis and handball and it's played on a court the size of a bathroom. And it's not like racquetball has been gradually rising and work- ing to the top of the extra-curricu- lar activities-it hasn't. In fact, racquetball has come on like a storm on the ocean, very quickly and unexpectedly. The racket is a somewhat small- er version of the tennis racket and weighs approximately nine ounces. The ball, which is cov- ered by a renewable adhesive tape covering, measures one inch in width and one ounce in weight. The court is about 60 feet long by 30 feet wide fokay-so it's a little bigger than the bath- room and is four-walled. The object of the game, which may be played singles or dou- bles, is to return the ball either before it reaches the ground or on its first bounce so that it strikes the front wall above the play line and returns into the court. Players continue to do so alternately until a one fails to make a valid return and loses the stroke. Hard, low-hitting close to the side wall is the essence of the game with cutting, volleying, half- volleying, drop shots, and angle shots also in the repertory. The game consists of 21 points called aces. Aces can be scored only by the head-in one player having the service; and therefore, the hand-out fplayer receiving ser- vicey must win a stroke to obtain service before he can score an ace. So much for the rules. right? Now here's some background on the game: Attempts have been made to trace racquetball, which originated from the game called racquets, but the game that is now known can hardly be said to have existed before the 19th century. The first school that took to racquetball was in Eng- land, by the name of Harrow, in the 1820's. The game had achieved great status in Europe by the 1920's-30's. As for the western hemisphere, the first raquetball court was es- tablished in Canada during the second quarter of the 19th cen- tury. The first known court was built in Montreal in 1836. The first definitely recorded court in the United States was built in New York in 1850. After all that explaining about how the game is played, why the game has become so popu: lar here is still a mystery. Last year on campus, racquetball was an almost unheard-of sport. This year, there are four brand new racquetball courts located at the RE. building and there are practically lines waiting outside the building to get in to play on them. Why the sudden popularity? Perhaps it can be explained in the words of Derek Sherry, who is a resident of the dorms and an avid racquetball player: Racquetball is just a really fun game. It's good exercise, and if you're overweight, it's a good way to lose those extra pounds. Plus, being played indoors is a great advantage to the sport be cause you can play it year- round, whereas baseball, basket- ball, and football are affected by the weather. Besides, there are a lot of members of the opposite sex that also play the game fchuck- le, chuckle; I guess I'm just a racquetball freak.

By Lee Stubbs In the world of theater, there are many methods and styles that can be worked with to achieve the ultimate goal-suc- cess. There is nothing equal to working and striving tor months to reach perfection and then relat- ing that perfection to an audi- ence. That is what theater is all about. Many hours are spent every night for months to get the right movement, voice intonation, makeup, scenery, props, lighting, sound, costumes, word delivery, band direction, and other special effects just the way that you want them. And if by chance everything goes a little better than you had planned, such as ahead of schedule, that makes it all the better. Opening night. you are iUnstuffi Moliere standing backstage biting your nails and soaking your clothes with sweat. From that moment you're on, until the final curtain closes, and when members of the audience come up to you and tell you what a wonderful job you have done, and when your leading actress is crying be cause she's so happy. It makes it all worthwhile. This year all of the above and probably a little more either un- told or unknown was exper- Ienced by members of the the ater department and others involved in the production of the year's plays. in the case of itThe Would-Be Gentleman, one of two spring semester productions, the depart- ment went a little off the wall. What that means is that the story of the play was a little ridiculous, but nonetheless interesting and entertaining. Featuring Bob Papisan in the lead roll as Monsieur Jourdain, this unconventional production of the 17th-century farce written by Moliere was directed by Mike Wise with the idea of a circus as the prevailing motif. The circus concept was selected to cue the audience into the play which was a purely delightful tas they say in show bizy comedy originally developed by vaude ville type comedians of France. The story of the play deals with a selt-centered, middleclass mer- chant who fancies himself as a gentleman. In the play we see him vainly attempt to become cultured and learned while being ridiculed and fooled by his ser- vants and family. The central focus and the one thing that really caught the eye in this play was the costuming and makeup work. In short, they were very bright and colorful 1 g a L b 0 E V, I ' l with tons of clo mg used, acct Wise, wife of C Mike Wise anc makeup speciali Wise designe and, with the he dents, spent the making them.

Wise designed the costumes and, with the help of theater stu- dents, spent the next six weeks making them. Most of the work was done in three to four hour shifts in the afternoon. The cos- tumes themselves were based on a circus motif. The total effect of the costumes and makeup was that of mime artists. They were also very difficult to put on and this task usually took up to two hours. We decided to use a cir- cus idea with this play which made it a little less stutfy-you know 17th-century France was, right? I mean, this play sounds really silly and it's just as silly in production, but what it all boils down to is that we all had a good time; it was fun. Everybody involved did a super job, com- mented Wise. It was worth it, too! Elaborate costumes and makeup confrib utes to the success of The Would Be Gentleman.

The decision was made by College President M. 0. Looney and Athletic Director Charlie Burrl. Expressing his disappointment, Burri explained, There was no way we could have been ready for the Jan. 16 dedication. There were many things that had to be done before opening the fieldhouse to the public. The pieces of equipment that hold the bleachers at the south wall had not arrived and the has ketball goals hadn't been sus- pended. 'iThe permanent theater-type seats were not completed. With all of these problems, we knew there was no way we could have a dedication, Burri stated. Who is Who in '8 1 Five seniors were included in the 1981 edition of Who's Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges. The students were Mary Kathryn Carter, Troy, Ks.; Mark Alan Manville, St. Joseph, Mo.; Kendall Grantham Misemer, Stanberry, Mo.; Martha Dianne Law, St. Joseph, Mo. and Marilyn Sue Speer, King City, Mo. , These campus leaders were chosen on the basis of their academic achievement, service to the com- munity, leadership in extracurricular activities and fu- ture potential. They join an elite group of students selected from more than 1,300 institutions of higher learning in all 150 states, the District of Columbia and several for- eign nations.

The new date of dedication will be the first home game in No vember. Shuttle Western The possibility of a transporta- tlon shuttle was surveyed by out- of-town students for feedback. The shuttle became a reality and a new source of transportation for students in the fall semester and is still operating smoothly. The shuttle is a commuter bus service contracted from the Da- vls bus company, financially self- supporting. We had Broadmoor for hous- ing this year and the shuttle helped with the transportation problem from there, Dr. Nolen Morrison commented. The bus also travels from Platte Woods along l-29 to Platte City and Dearborn. The students are shuttled off in front of the SStC building around 7:45 am. It really beats driving, and it also gives you more time to study, passenger Steve Kan- easter remarked. The shuttle departs at 3:10 pm. to return its passengers. Charitable Giving Working for the betterment of others, the United Way Cam- , palgn focused part of its efforts at Missouri Western through, films, tours and the distribution of pledge cards. ' Reports on the achievements of various agencies in the com- munity were featured during din ners at the Senior Citizens Cen- ter downtown, as well as local forms of entertainment. The campaign at the college yielded a total of 84$ of the original goal, which was some- what of a disappointment, ac- cording to Missouri Western Co ordinator Helen Wigersma. The joy felt through efforts of the people involved with the campaign remains immeasur- able.

Spring is the spectacular season of sunlight and beautiful flowers. In fact. I, Lorenzo. claim Spring has pleasantly sprung. There are many things that make spring such a nice season. Just being outside, rather than being cooped up inside as in the winter, is a relief. It means that a person is able to wear less clothes. That's a relief after wearing those heavy winter coats. Spring also brings the softball season. People can be seen in an array of different uniforms. There is an onslaught of ball bat, ball glove, and softball pro duction and sales sky rocket. This is a sure sign that spring is here as is the Royals training camp. Royalmania struck campus last year and there are already signs of another Royal year. One person referred to spring as being neat be 152y5pring cause of the flowers. She also said that it was time for the basic outdoor sports, such as tennis, swim mlng and water skiing. These would not be too err joyable If there were no spring. Spring is the spring board for these activities. April is the cruelest month, I'd rather be dead and I think it should be postponed until after finals. I didn't expect to hear things like this about spring. but I guess there are those who have to be differ- ent. Still spring brings the dreaded hay fever . May- be I can understand now some of the feelings. The only other reason I could think someone would put down spring is because he isn't doing that well In school. Personally, I think spring should follow winter; how's that? Mushroom hunting is big during the spring months. People skip classes, work, and do all sorts of excll- Ing things to traipse through the hills tor a fungus. A mighty tasty delicacy, but an awful lot of trouble to find.

Fishing can be an enjoyable spring activity if the right people are around. For instance, those wild lishy parties at Horsehoe Lake. Good goin' guys; that's my kind of fishing party. Then there is the serious fisherman who gets into the sport. Six fishing rods and reels, consid- ering he can just barely keep his eye on one after a day full of beer, is purely amazing. Those with green thumbs really enjoy spring. It's the time when they can plant their flowers and vegetables. They can then sit back and watch them grow it they are lucky. I guess if you've got it, green thumbin' can be a pleasing spring hobby. The only thing green about me in the spring is my face after eating in the cafeteria. During spring the college student seems to take an entirely different outlook on school life. Students CARMODY can even be seen skipping classes tot all the nerve; Some sleeping-in later than usual on a lazy spring morning is common. The student activities also take on a totally new look. During the winter the Idea of excitement was a rerun of M'A'S'H. Sesame Street, and sometimes even the Muppets education at TVD. Now students' excitement has turned to parties, treklng to Kansas, and studying their cans off for an proaching finals. Sure does change that Iaid-back wlnter attitude. Kris Pankau and Dave Conneff split a six pack of Buckhorn at the Twln Bridges, east of campus. The bridges are a night spot for un derage drinkers and are often the location for late night parties.

Springl153 CARMODY Season of Sunlight There is also the much-owoited spring cleaning, which usually ends up being a major excavating job tor most students. They have to dig themselves out every morning before they can go to their classes. There is the serious spring cleaner who removes' all articles not fastened down. They take everything Into the square and then give the room a good rub down. ' There is also the student whose idea of spring cleaning is to open a window and let the air pass through the room for a couple of hours or until the locker room smell dissipates. Finally, there is the procrastination theory of spring cleaning, waiting until the day before school ends to throw things of little value ibut great volumes out onto the courtyard in plastic garbage bags, which of course break. The thing I'm sure all college students look forward to Is the dreaded spring break. There are many things a college student finds to do during this time. Some students found it necessary to go to Florida and have a barely tolerable break, laying around soaking up those much-needed rays for a gorgeous blklnl tan. it's a tolerable venture for those who like FranKLIn LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY KETTER 8t ASSOCIATES 1317 Faraon St. Joseph, MO 64501 Phone 816233-0297 n RLE nORmnhs Tho Pluto for the Custom Face me 3837 Frederick Blvd. 279-3132 ' 1541Spring adventures.

Still, some students found it enjoyable just to spend time with their families and hang around and enjoy the home life. Maybe the visit home after a long semester is more enjoyable to them than Flor- lda or even working. It was just what the doctor or- dered. Finally, we look at the more traditional things of spring lthat I remember anyway; There are two ma- jor components of the old fashioned spring. The first of these is love. I can't very well look at spring and not mention love. There is something in the weather I think that stimulates the love bug in most of us. Where would we be without love? Prob ably not here that's for sure. There's just something about spring that makes love more enjoyable to me and obviously many oth- ers. Holding hands and walking through the park, sharing their most intimate thoughts with one an- other-yes it's the air that does it. Spring does the most to bring out that emotion. Easter is a time when all can share a little love and not have to feel gushy about it. Going out to buy a chocolate bunny or egg for that someone special doesn't mean you're promising a long-term relationship. Easter is the season of love; look at how much love was devoted to the Christians as Jesus died on the cross and arose again. To the senior, spring means graduation and the close of what should have been a prosperous col lege career. The senior can be saying his last good- byes to friends and well-meaning professors. twithout whose help we all might have done betterJ It looks like a scene from high school graduation: tears, hugs, and I'll see you next years.

Sharon Groh, coordinator of vo cal studies, is also the treasurer of the Kansas City chapter of NATS. According to Groh, there is a big demand for graduate music stu- dents. Several graduates from Missouri Western are now teach- ing music on the elementary, ju- nior high and secondary levels. ilThe voice is an instrument, a God-given talent, and it is unique in that respect, Groh related. Groh summed up her feelings about the students' competitive spirit, saying, iiOur students com- pete extremely well across the state. The music department is also adding a fraternity and sorority.

It's Happening Againi By Lee Stubbs Oh My God-It's happening again, shouted a White House aide. And It was happening again: an attempt to take the President's life. A reminder of an American disease, the vIoIence that leads to assassination. At approximately 1:29 p.m., March 30, central standard time. Ronald Reagan, Presldent at the United States, left the Washington Hilton Hotel, where he had just tin lshed addressing a labor union meeting. The President flashed one of his usual jovial smiles as he headed toward his car, which was parked a scant 15 feet from the exit. He was surrounded by a score of Secret Service Agents and po Ilcemen, along with a few aides and his press secretary, James Brady. A few feet from the open door of his limousine, Reagan turned to his left and waved to the reporters. Suddenly, in the span of two seconds, six gunshots rang out. One hIt a window across the street, another the window of Reagan's car. Other bullets hit Brady. Secret Service Agent Timo thy McCarthy, and Patrolman Thomas Delahanty. One bullet strikes the rear panel of the Ilm ouslne, rlcochets through the gap between the open door and the body of the car and hits Reagan as he Is bending over and being pushed Into the car by Secret Service Agent Parr. It was a dramatic scene- something you would expect to see on Starsky and Hutch. Brady lying In the street with blood seeping from a wound on his head, McCarthy and Delahanty writhing with pain. and men with guns running all over the place. And what of the wouldbe as Another President was almost killed by an assassinis bullet sassln? Along the wall of the ho tel agents, policemen. and one bystander leaped on the assall ant, who was later identified as John W. Hinckley, Jr. After a brief struggle. Hinckley was handcuffed and shaved toWard a patrol car. The rear door was locked, so Hinckley was quickly pushed Into another and sped away to police headquarters. Inside the President's car, which had sped trom the scene Immediately. Agent Parr checked the President for any signs of a wound. He found none. A few minutes later Reagan complained that his ribs hurt and he was having trouble breathing. Then he began to cough up blood. When the IImousIne ar- rived at George Washington Unl- verslty Hospital. Parr found that ' his diagnosis had been wrong: the President had been shot. According to Dr. Dennis O'Leary, the bullet entered the President's body just below the left armpit. deflected off the sev- enth rib, and lodged itself in his lower left lung. Reagan later underwent a twohour operation to remove the bullet. The surgery was described as very success tut. James Brady was wounded in the head as a bullet entered above the right eyebrow and passed through to the right side of his brain. He was not expect- ed to survive his wounds, but after st hours of surgery, doctors said he would survive with possi- ble braIn damage. Amazingly, it appeared as though the dam- age was minimal. President Reagan himself was reportedly a model patient. He was often maklng jokes, and his quick recovery amazed the doc- tors. And what of John Warnock Hinckley, Jr.? Perhaps some background Is necessary on the man who will go down In history In the Infamous company of the likes at John Wilkes Booth and Lee Harvey Oswald. Hinckley didn't fit well In socI ety-he fit the typical assassin pattern. He was a loner; he was jobless, something of a drifter. But he also differed somewhat from past assassins. Hinckley was born into a wealthy family. The son of an ollman, he was raised in a $300, 000 house and given every com fort he could possibly need. He was an average pupil at High land Park HIgh School In Dallas. Commented one fellow student, He was noticeable but not out- standing. There had been one brush with the law. In October 1980, Hinckley was arrested in Nashville for trying to board an airplane with three handguns. President Carter was In town that day. . Authorities looking for a motive discovered a quirk In HInckley's behavlor-several letters he had written to Jodie Foster. a teen age actress. The closing of one letter goes as follows: Jodie- l'm asking you to look Into your heart and at least give me the chance with this historical deed to gain your respect and love. I love you forever, John Hinckley. Why? A question that a shaken country asks. Doctors at the Fed- eral Correctional Institution at Butner. N.C., are still trying to fig- ure It out as well. Assassination Attempv 159 mewra..wmwvvw----r--rm . . , Reagan Administration Says 'Hello' to Federal Budget Cuts, By Lori Roberts Everyone wants the federal gov- ernment to curtail its deficit spending, but no one wants the cuts to directly affect them. This year. it was different. Ronald Reagan, Republican, promised during his 1980 cam- paign tobalance the federal budget. Promises, promises- that's all we get from politicians, voters said. Guess what? We did get budget cuts, just as Reagan promised. With 0 Congress weighed heavily with Republicans, the economic proposals made by the Reagan administratlon began to see the light of day. Examples of these cuts were social welfare pro- grams, such as food stamps and medicare, federal grants for arts and sciences, and $1 billion of the $6 billion yearly figure for stu dent financial aid. OUCH! Why cut college students? Possibly to weed out the, para slte of the program, related Bob Berger, director of financial aid. 1 There are many students who begin a semester with flnanclal old and drop out during the se mester.,Thls student aid ls just lost.

I don't think the budget cuts will be as drastic as they appear, but now it is too early to tell how much money will be available and when. In a report from the Chronicle of Higher Education tFeb. 23, 1980, the Reagan administration planned to make deep cuts in federal programs that benefit middle and upper-income Ameri- cans. Specifically, the cuts called for families to contribute a greater percentage of the stu- dent's college expenses in order to decrease amounts given in Ba- slc Educational Opportunity Grants, now known as Pell Grants. The report also detailed a pro posal to totally eliminate Social Security payments to students. These students receive benefits due to the death or disability of one or both parents until they graduate, quit college, or reach age 22. The Reagan administra tlon felt that the payments are unrelated to studentsl financial needs or educational costs. Un- der the proposed plan, no new students would receive benefits after August, 1981. and existing beneficiaries would receive 25 , percent cuts yearly until their 22nd birthday.

One coed ex- pressed her feelings on the sItuation, Now, when I come home to the dorms alone late at nIght and the parking lot is full, I always imagine that someone wlll jump from between the cars and grab me. As a result of the attempted rapes, some preven tlve measures were taken to insure more safety on campus. Securlty around the campus was tightened, especlally In the dorms. Outslde help In patroltng the campus was received from the St. Joseph Police De- partment. One campus organlzatlon, Phl Slgma Epsllon, orga- nized an escort servlce between 8 and 10 pm. to help Insure the safety of those females who were taklng nlght classes or were studying In the library. When asked how hIs fraternIty came up with the Idea to start the program, Chris Roberts replied, Fra- ternltles are generally known for their wild partles; we wanted to do somethlng to help out the college In a tlme of need.

Perhaps exaggerated, but during'1980-81, it seemed that more students than usual were falling In love and announcing upcoming marriages. Marriage seemed to be in style again, after a few years of IIvIng-together lifestyles. What Is thIs thing we call love? It is hard to de scrlbe, explained one coed, except by caIIIng It love.

Thlngs always don't work out between a couple that think they are in love. Sometimes couples are in love, but It's a type of love that won't lead to marriage according to one male student. But almost everyone agreed that a certain magic exlsts between two people when they fall In love. One coed remarked, You'll know when you're reaI Iy In love. She must know what she's talking about . . . she's in love. With the onset of warmer weather, love and lovers often venture outdoors.

BEAMME UP SCOT TY THERE S NO INTELLIGENT LIFE DOWN HERE A v u .. w - - vvaWWW o I 4 t '4 J 4 A .. d;vvv;Wv vw TLCT 3y Phyllis Wright Professor Emeritus Glenn Marion cast his eyes over the campus with the satisfied look of an artist whose latest work promised to be a masterpiece. The morning sunshine glistened on the spring-tresh grass and breezes rustled the lush blooms of flowering crab trees along the picturesque drive. Every year it's been looking a lit- tle bit better, and soon-Marion Is convinced-Missouri Western will have one of the prettiest campuses in the whole Midwest. It so, no one would argue that he s deserves much of the credit. The landscaping at the college got under way about nine years ago after all the major buildings and roads were completed. But before a single bush or tree was planted, the former educator spent many hours working on a master plan that would show the eventual location of every horti- cultural feature. The plan is now more than threequarters of the waytimplemented, and each growing season adds a new di- mension. I've worked myself to death on this place, the 72 year-old Mara ion said-but it was uttered in pride, not complaint. There was so much to do those first years that I'd come out evenings and Saturdays and Sundays, trying to get things off to a good start I'm really in love with this col- lege, Marion said simply. When we finally got the new campus, I wanted it to be as beautiful as possible, and I knew we had a limited budget. I figured this was one thing I could contribute. I wasn't interested in being paid for the work; I just wanted the challenge of starting from scratch. it Tender Dr. Marvin Looney, gave Marion the green light to proceed and he has been director of landscaping ever since, working with the head groundskeeper, Larry Smith. I don't worry about the grass or the mowing, Marion said, that's Larry's job, but I supervise all the planting and the care of trees, shrubs and flowers. In new plant- Ings, you always lose a few, but we've kept our losses below 5 percent. The dirt is terrible here because its mostly clay, so every time we plant anything we have to haul in some topsoil. On that particular day, Marion and two grounds employees, Scott Campbell and John Halter, were digging holes where addi- tional trees were to be planted for an alternating border of white birches and sweet gums along Downs Drive. There are presently 600 trees on the campus, and the number will be up another hundred or so by the time the master plan is fulfilled. Other varieties include pin oak, hard maple, ash, flowering crab and Bradford pear, an ornamen- tal tree that blooms in the spring. There are also a good many ev- ergreens for contrast. Every build- ing has a foundation planting, and the new staduim and physy ical education annex represent projects that Marion and his crew will tackle this tall. Flower beds are situated in key spots through- out campus. Marion spends at least half of each day on campus, Mondays through Fridays, during the grow- ing season even though he's been retired from his teaching job since 1976. A graduate of the former Maryville State Teach- ers College, he got his master's degree at Oregon State Universi- ty and also did graduate work at Landscaping Care the former Rolla School of Mines and Metallurgy. He began his teaching career at Benton High School and then transferred to Central High School. By the end of the 1940's he was teaching at St. Joseph Ju nior College and stayed on the faculty when it became Missouri Western. The popular teacher made a lasting impression on most of his students. His relaxed, cheery manner has always been appealing. We get about $1,000 a year to spend on landscaping out here and that isn't very much, he said. We couldn't have be gun to accomplish all this it we hadn't had a lot of our stock donated. I do wonder sometimes it the community appreciates this place as much as they should- or it they just take it for granted, he said. I don't care about per- sonal praise, but I do wish more people would drive out occasion- ally and look around. Then if they remembered how it looked to years ago, I think they'd be Impressed. Just give us another few years and it's going to be even more beautiful, he went on, his blue gray eyes looking toward some distant horizon. We've picked trees that give us color both in the tall and the spring. The Brad- ford pears and crabs are beauti ful now, and in October the maples and sweet gums will be red, and the ashes and birches will be yellow, which provides a beautiful contrast. Then Marion pulled his soft brimmed hat down over his brow, put on his gloves and picked up a shovel. It was time to get busy. Those new trees needed to be in the ground.

WWWn-M SAVING Milestones Gravestones By John Vanderpool The second half of the 1981 Missouri Western basketball sea son can be looked upon as one of milestones and gravestones. The Lady Gritfs glided through the second half establishing sev- eral records while their male counterparts were setting records for futility in an environment of lin- gering death. Emporia State threw the final shovel of dirt on the men's hopes for a District 16 Playoff berth by ending the Griffon's 1981 season with an 87-86 overtime victory. The Griffs finished the season with an overall record 9-17, second worst in the school's history. If ter- minated seasons had grave- stones, this year's might have read: 91981 men's basketball season, Rest in Peace. Head Coach Gary Filbert, completing his eleventh year at the helm of Western basketball, saw to it that the tomb was properly sealed as W'mhc.ru--rxn:m?ki 'w m W ' he carefully tucked away the frustration and despair that comes with such a disappointing season. While Filbert suffered through one of his most frustrating seasons, women's basketball coach Debbie Bumpus enjoyed her best. The 1981 version of the Lady Griffs established an impressive list of credentials throughout the yeaL They kicked off the year with a third-place finish in the Lady Ea- gle Invitational at Moorhead, Ken- tucky.

They went on to set a school record with seven straight wins enroute to a 206 regular season finish and a second place finish In CSIC conference action. This was just the beginning as the Lady Griffons looked to post sea son play. The District 16 Tournament was the first post-season stepping- stone for the Griffs. They breezed through the tournament despite the absence of leading scorer Barb Gudde, who was sidelined with a fractured finger. The squad then traveled to Grandview College in Des Moines, Iowa, for the first round of the NAIA Area 4 Playoffs. The action was fast paced as the La- dies defeated Wisconsin-Parkside, 71-59, in the tourney opener. The Griffs then stunned Grandview 67- 66 on a Iast-second desperation shot by Jackie Dudley. This set up the tirst-ever trip to the National NAIA tournament by a Lady Griffon basketball squad. The Lady Griffs entered the tour- ney as the number four seed.They opened against num- ber five seeded Northern State from South Dakota. Their stay was short and sweet as they dropped their initial game, despite the in- spired play of 6'2 substitute Lau- ra Hanson. The Ladies ended the season with a 246 record, good enough to earn Bumpus the CSIC Coach of the Year honors. Both the men's and women's bas ketball teams took on a youthful appearance in 1981 as each loses only one senior. Barb Gudde leaves Western as one ot the premier women basketball players to have participated in the women's basketball program at Missouri Western. On the male side, Coach Gary Filbert loses senior guard Arlo Vallejo. Despite the loss of these two fine players, the Missouri Western basketball program looks with optimistic eyes to next season.

The 1981 season began as many had in previous years, with the Gritfs inside looking out as rainy weather washed out many of their early season games. There was little worry, though. that the Gritfs would get their required number of District 16 games in during the remainder of the season. However, there was cancem expressed by Minnis who was confused by the fluctuating attitude of the Gritton baseballers; Time after time the Gritts would perform brilliantly in the first game of a twinbill, while blowing the second. Other times they did not perform at all. Such was the case as they embarked on their annual trip South. The University of Arkansas gave the Griffon batmen a clinic as they swept a doubleheader 152, 10-0. Minnis termed the trip an excellent way to learn. Watching . . .

The Hawkers swept the Gritfs 161, and 151 as the K.U. coach mercifully asked Western if they would like to suspend each game due to the enormous margin of victory. . Despite the losses at K.U., many new faces were fitting well into the cogs of the Western baseball ma- chine. Freshman Dan Molieri held a team leading .400 average after 31 games. Transfer outfielder Steve Bundy checked in with a .300 average. First baseman Randy Geesing lead most of the of- fensive categories with third baseman Mike Musser and designated hitter Greg Logan close behind. Mark Neu and David Greiwe lead the mound corps through the first thirty games. Neu compiled a 5-2 record while Griewe followed with a 42 mark.

Communications Day features Journalists at Work By Mike Hoffman Over 200 area high school journalists attended the second annual Communications Day April 9, which featured ABC Senior Regional Correspondent Tom Jarriel and KMBC TV 9 Coanchorperson Christine Craft. Craft started the day's activities with her address, I want to Be a Journalist, What Now? in which the Callfornia native related her education and early career. describing to landlocked midwesterners surf- Ing and sunning on Pacific beaches. The 36yearold newswoman was a hit with the students and may have stolen the show from Jarriel, along with their heans The morning workshops prOvided the high school students the opportunity to exchange ideas with professionals. David Bradley, editor of the St. Joseph News-Press; Pat Bailey, news director for KKJO Radio; and Mary Gresham, producer and anchorperson tor KQTV led workshops, representing the St. Joseph media. Professionals from the Kansas City area who led workshops included William Tammeus, feature writer for the Kansas City Star; James Ragan, copywriter with ChristensonBarclay and Shaw Advertising; Jo seph Fleming, graphic consultant with intercollegiate Press; and Ron Clemons, student publications advis er at Truman High School, independence. Missouri. John Gilgun, professor of English here, also led a workshop for creative writers. After workshops and lunch at the College Center, awards were presented for yearbooks, newspapers and creative writing by Karen Fulton, professor of English, assisted by Beth-ann Bartels, copy editor of the Gritton '81. Winners of five scholarships, spon- sored by the St. Joseph News-Press and Gazette, were announced also. Later that afternoon, Jarriel provided the students with a lively question and answer session. Most questions centered on the media's handling of the attempted assassination of President Reagan. Jarriel also talked about his educational back- ground and his early career as a journalist. The highlight of the day was Jarriel's keynote ad- dress that evening. About 150 people attended, in- cluding many community leaders. Jarriel's speech was entitled Journalism . . . It Can Be Hazardous to Your Health. Eighty of 100 journalists will not live to retire, Jarriel said. Many will die early of stress and strain. However, some will be killed. He described the deaths of many newsman cover- Inc assignments overseas: newsmen getting in the WGY of a terrorist group or a foreign government have been killed for something they discovered. Many months of planning and coordination went Into Communications Day. The steering committee met from October through April, co-chaired by Kenneth Rosenauer and Mary Drummond. Other members of the committee were Joseph Castellani, acting chairman of the Department; Ka- ren Fulton, Richard Miller, Sandy Jacobs, and stu- dents Debi Ford, Sheryl Duffy, Beth-ann Bartels and Mike Hoffman. Funding for Jarriel's appearance was provided by the College Center Board. Other funds were pro vided by the St. Joseph News-Press and Gazette, the Cultural Events Committee, the Department of English and Modern Languages and the Journalism Club.

Communications Daw 181 tNo Heavy Lifting By Mike Hoffman A typical news reporter stereo type: rushed, tense, intense. snappy, quick tempered, nosey, hounding. Either Tom Jarriel did a good job of hiding his working im- age or that stereotype has fallen by the waystde-at least for a network newsman. Although his day here was on a tlght schedule-lunch with the local Lions Club, a TV interview at KQTV, two speaking sessions, a press conference and dinner at Swiss Chalet with the Commu ntcations Day steering commit- tee-Jarriel was relaxed, poised. and in good humor-more like a PR man than a reporter. The distinguished-looking Jarriel, tanned the's a tennis bum and Slightly graying, claimed the reason for hls career in journalism Wa-s because it involved no heavy lifting. . Jarriel, who had recently con ducted a nationwide heart test for 2W20, ordered a beer tHeinekem and Chicken Kiev- no dessert-he might have to pass the heart test again. He joked with the eleven people ac- companying him to dinner and discussed the seriousness of such things as the attempted assassi- nation. He was also asked about wom en in journalism. He thought great strides had been taken to ensure equality between men and wom en in job levels. On a lighter note, he talked about one young woman who applied for a job at ABC, hoping not to get it . . . she had to apply somewhere to col- lect her unemployment. Much to her dismay, ABC hired her as a production assistant. She was pro mated to junior producer and fl nally made a producer. She then spent several weeks at Harvard as a Harvard fellow. She returned to work for about two weeks and then mysteriously quit, never to be seen or heard from again. How Tom Jarriel spent his day visiting Western will be remem- bered by most aspiring journalists who were a part of Communica- tions Day as a day of no heavy lifting, at least for Mr. Jarriel. eu-A vs Super I What time l tlme for anothl These were first annual Ml sored by the L ty-hour event Health, Physic: tn the old 93 Disc jockeys shltts, encourag ers began to can to take thi ThIrty-minute hours of danci on food donl evening wore than the food Leslie McLel place by dar over $600, fol Clements, who Through this In donations t1 atlon.

My feet feel like lead ..... is it time tor another break? These were the comments heard frequently at the first annual Muscular Dystrophy DanceA-Thon spon- sored by the Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity. The twen ty-hour event was held on April 17 and 18 at the Health, Physical Education and Recreation Building, in the old gymnasium. Disc jockeys from various radio stations worked In shifts, encouraging the dancers. But, slowly the danc- ers began to drop off as the aches and pains be can to take their toll. Thirty-minute breaks were given for every three hours of dancing during which the dancers retuelled on food donated by the community. But as the evening wore on, sleep became more appetizing than the food itself. Leslie McLees and Paul Mindermannn won first place by dancing the total time and bringing in over $600, followed by Joyce Helm and Chance Clements, who raised over $400. Through this event, the fraternity raised over $1400 in donations to aid the Muscular Dystrophy Associ- ation. Karen McKernan and Chris Roberts dance to 505 music during the dance marathon for MD.

The entire story is confined within a small apartment but the Production Staff opened this apartment to all who sat in the audience. The stage setting was realistic and the organization of the rooms on the stage kept all of us in the midst of the action. The openness of the scenery was beneficial to the actors and the audience. There was never any doubt as t to which rooms the actors were In even though there were no walls to divide rooms. The audi- ence could easily follow the ac- tion upstairs or down. The props and scenery starting from the floor up to the ceiling were well balanced and had the look and feel of the early forties. Along with the scenery, the ad- dition of authentic sound effects set the mood for the play. Planes flew overhead, guns and bombs exploded and the sky would light up. shining brightly through the skylights. From the buzzer to the sirens of the police there was not a flaw in the realism that the sound crew produced for this play. The stage setting, scenery and sound effects where enhanced by the lighting used in the play. Whenever Anne read from her diary the lights would dim and the stage would become black to indicate that we were passing through time and to set the stage for the next scene. y The night scenes were excep ' 3 5V The realistic setting of the forties en- l t hances the quality of the production.

The green lights used to show the en- tire stage during the night scenes did not put emphasis on one par- ticular section of the stage. but gave the audience a view of the overall picture. The main speak- ers during the night scenes were given enough lighting to set them apart and those with smaller speaking parts were given a dim- mer light to include them in the scene but not to take away from the major scene. Whenever visitors would arrive the whole stage would be illumi- nated, as if to indicate to the au- dience that the visitor was bear- lng good news. The programs that the audi- ence received were also a indi- cation of the high quality of this production. They were done with professionalism, and from the mo ment they were read, each member of the audience knew this was going to be a quality program. The production crew accom- plished their goal.

Another Step for I Mankind By Kim Wiggs Staying one step ahead of the Joneses has always been an American tradition. The space shuttle Columbia has enabled the United States to stay one step ahead of the Soviets. On April 12, space shuttle Co Iumbia blasted off from Cape Ca- naveral, Fla., for its 54 hour, 36 orbit flight around the earth. It landed on April 14 at the desig- nated spot in the Mojave Desert of California. Though the shuttle's take-ott had been delayed by computer and engine problems, when it was finally launched, it really took off. it was the first reusable 188t8pace Shuttle rocketship ever. In 1972, when the program was started, the cost of the entire project was estimated at $5 bil- lion. However, the National Aero nautics and Space Administration had already spent over $11 bil- lion at the time of Iitt-otf, and they expect to spend at least $7 bil- Ilon more before the first oper- ational flight in 1982. Most scientific experts were up set at the great expense of the spacecraft, but they felt that the step was necessary for the eco nomical movement of civilization Into space. John Young and Robert Crippen, the two men aboard the Columbia, did not civilize space with their successful mis slon, but they did prove that hu man life was safe aboard the space shuttle. The military took interest in the Columbia project from the begin ning, but even more interest has been shown since the successful testing. The Defense Department reportedly has plans for using the space shuttle as a spy-in-thesky, to test laser weapons and to car- ry and release orbiting Kamlka zes designed to destroy enemY satellites. Whether the space shuttle Co Iumbia takes people to live in space, carries space weapons or never flies again, it was still an other American tirst! 1H?

' End of Jinx By Lee Stubbs Kendall Misemer broke a trend April 30 in the Student Government Association's an- nual elections. He's still the President, the first incumbent president to win in MWSC's his tory. According to Dean Forrest Hoff, the margin of victory was approximately 100 votes. Hotf also commented on the jinx that has hung over incum bent presidents in past years: Well, I don't really know what the problem was, whether the man just didn't do the job or whether the students decided they just didn't like him any more. Whatever it was, Ken- dall has broken the string. Breaking hasn't been easy. Winning last year by a more or less default decision mobody ran against himt, Kendall vaulted into the office unopposed, but deter- mined, I'll have to prove myself first. By running unopposed I can't say that I was the best qualified candidate; all I can say is that I was the only candidate. By listening to students' views and opinions, and by being hon- est and working directly with the problems that arose, he proved hlmself more worthy of the task. What can I say, I'm happy! I'll just prove everybody right that voted for me, commented Ken dall after the election. Another major issue on the bal- lnoumbenf Kendall Misemer is the first SGA President ever to be re-elecfed lot was the proposal for a fee ref- erendum, which would have raised the cost for such student' activities as concerts, plays, dances, and sports events. It didn't go over too well as stu- dents voted it down by a three- to-one majority. Other students elected to the SGA were twenty senators who are often overlooked. Elected were: Julie Boswell, Paul Pioch, Carla Faulter, Greg Wilkerson, Floyd Peoples, Jeff Hoffman, Dan Reed, Ardelia Barnes, Jeff Allard, Martha Brookshier, Jackie Kenne dy, Craig Gilly, Sheila Delaney, Cindy Bethel, Dan Elliot, Dennis Kampin, Mary Mahoney, David Mayberry, Ted DeIo, and Craig Wlldes.

Even without the band playing, Sigma Kappa's party at Horseshoe Lake was still overcrowded with partying students. I Aaowavo By Kimm Wiggs Came one, came all to the Slgma Kappa Spring Fling held at Horseshoe Lake April 10. It was the sorority's first all- school party. Even with all the problems they ran into, the fling was a success with 600-700 stu- dents participating. Sheryl Dutty, member, said, Our biggest problem was that we didn't even know it we could use the land until a couple of days before the party. The owner of Horseshoe Lake flled bankruptcy four days before the event and Sigma Kappa had to wait until the court date to flnd that the owner could still rent the land to make money. The group ran into problems the night of the party, too. The .m-e.w---mapr,-y'-zs-vwv m generator would not work, so the evening was spent without music. As it that wasn't bad enough, their 30 kegs of beer ran out be fore midnight. Duffy said, 'tEven though we had so many problems, it was stlll a great party. We had planty of help from Phi Slgs and U.K.B.'s, the weather was perfect and no pollce ever showed up! The lights were turned out at 1 a.m., but people stayed until past 2:30 am. just roaming around and having a good time. The girls of Sigma Kappa worked hard and long planning the party. Dutty said. It's more tun to go to a party than to have one, but we proved that we could do it. Now, if we ever want to have another one, we know we can.

Working to expand the pro gram, Cromwell felt lntramurais were quite successful this year, adding that at least 25 percent of the stu dent body and faculty were involved. Considering this is primarily a commuter campus, I am pleased the turnout was so good. Of the many events sponsored by the Intramural Department, the AII-Nighter, held on March 7, was the most popular, according to Cromwell. Many stu dents seemed to get more involved in lntramurais after the six-hour event, running from 9 pm. to 3 am. There were seven events held during the spring with the Archery winners being Gary Moxley and Christi Laughlin. Laughlin also won in Horseshoes, along with Ron Michaels. Weekend Warriors and the Rebels won the Volleyball divisions, with UKB l taking Softball and Pele, Inc. winning in Soccer. Steve Miller 3 won the Cross Campus Run, while Tony Bender and Ellen Lewis took first place in Frisbee golf, the final event of the season. So how does Cromwell feel about lntramurais for next year? I can't wait. I feel they went well this year, and I have many plans for the next year's pro gram.

Eas- ton, Mo., contributed heavily to this year's success by lend- ing three natives to this year's pitching staff. The trio, comprised of sopho more twins Beth and Tammy Kemmer and freshman Wonda Berry, combined for a 1.52 earned run average while figur- lng in every decision through- out the season.

The athletes and coaches are very close which adds to the determi- nation of the team to win. Acedemio schedules always create a problem for team members and coaches. Some of the team has had problems getting to their matches. The players all agree that Debbie Bumpus knows what she's talk- lng about and feel she makes being on the team a valuable experience. The Women's Tennis Team is young this year be cause they lost their Number One through five seat- ed players this year to graduation. Debbie Bumpus said they are more or less starting from scratch. They only have two girls with any college playing experience. Debbie said they are spending time building up the team and each player is working to Improve their individual skills. The teams schedule is tough and the coach says it Is probably tougher than it should be due to lack of. experience. The team is not discouraged be cause of the problems they are encountering and have a very positive attitude about the season: Next year looks better and Coach Bumpus says they will be working hard on recruiting freshman tor the team this next year.

What happened, however, is that the mediocre start turned into a mediocre finish which accounted for the baseballer's mediocre 25-27 record. The last half of the season was a battle all the way as the Gritfs scratched and fought to reach the District 16 Playoffs for yet an- other year. The scene was set as the Gritfs took the field against the highly- touted William Jewell Cardinals tor a Friday doubleheader.

Musser lead the team in most offensive categories with 11 doubles, 3 tri- ples and 8 home runs. To overcome the mediocrity of the 1981 season the Griffs will need to look for added mound talent.

U Parting is Such Sweet Sorrow By Lloyd Mason Summer, what a beautiful season: we all have dit- terent things to look forward to. The saddest thing about the summer season is that it usually means that school has ended. The end of school often means parting from dear friends. Emotional depar- tures and the old cliche, parting is such sweet sor- row, seem to fit the occasion. If It weren't for the fact that summer was such fun, who would want to leave school? In front of a dorm a large pile of suitcases and duttle bags lay. The door opens and the student ap pears again from the depths of his now well-excavat- ed room with another duffle bag. Watching him, it appears he is really dreading the summer, but for what reason? Is it because he has had to pack all those bags or because he is leaving all of his new- tound friends? It is really a stirring dilemma to watch as the student throws his duffle bag halfway across the dorm courtyard. It is even more of an experience watching that brave student trying to stuff 1600 pounds of clothing, a stereo, and miscellaneous goodies into a '67 Volkswagen Bug. Watching as the car gets closer and closer to the ground, you wonder if he will make it home. He has articles of clothing sticking out the windows and trunk of his car as he struggles to get that last suitcase in through the window. He does this so he doesn't have to open the door and Pick int Save Warehouse Foods Locally owned and operated Fresh Meats and Produce Full line of nationally advertised products. reat Western Hospitality PONY EXPRESS MOTOR INN Restaurant .

It is a time when some budding love affairs tall by the wayside due to lack of company. It is sad to watch as those who are parting hug, kiss, and say those last goodbyes. Some are saying, Hey, it's all right, I'll be back next year. The fact that some will not is even more depressing. Summer itself is a stimulating season. Softball has really gotten started, which, of course. means the beer season has also stared. There is a serious increase in It quor sales and DWI's. Men are awarded with a cold one for hlt- ting a home run in an important game. Then they stand around after a game getting plastered. Once they've started drinking, it's impossible to pull away from the beer-drinking area. Fishing season has gotten start- ed and the conservation officers are having a field day with unlicensed fishermen. Hey, bub, you got a license? It's even more exciting trying to watch the guy explaining why he has no it cense. Would you believe, the fish that got away swallowed It? The summer swimmers hit the beach in hopes of getting a serl ous tan. Overdoses of QT. and Bactine are common problems along with mosquito bites, sun- burns and VERY little swimming. The beginning of summer marks the beginning for the summer ath lete. Tennis or taking in a few holes at Shady Lane are perhaps as hot 0 game as Frisbee. One of the most popular activities ls softball. It beats working all to heck, as far as excitement goes. Then, of course, there is the sum mer loafer, the person who does absolutely nothing, but collect sun rays and bucks from daddyo for Saturday night parties. This person's idea of excitement ls cruisin' up and down the main drag of the city, wasting dad's gas. This person is sure to arrive at a party, unwanted of course, and end up in the middle of 0 dl saster, such as having a kegroll- ing contest, and the keg rolls over his body. Such a thing only happens to this poor guy. As far as work goes, somehow everyone finds a summer job, even if it means working for dad. Working for a relative can really be a bummer, because relatives usually know why you don't come to work. Dad knows how you feel and this excuse never works. Not only that, but it usually means that the person gets the dirtiest job the parent can find. This usually ends in disaster, making a bigger mess than the person began with. Might as well forget working for Dad, because he knows what you can and can't do. All in all, summer is the season of sports and getting enough money together for the next se mester. It doesn't always work because a person gets too In volved with what's going on around him to catch up with his original plans. Believe it or not, there's always summer school for the person who is a true masochist. Usually this means a classroom that seems to have heaters on in- stead of air conditioning when It's 101 degrees outside. Oh, well, there's next year and bigger and better summers ahead. f VOCATIONAL TRAINING GOOD Darlene Owen an the semester. PART TIME JOBS KW .

Jorhlhg In In today's fast moving, busi- ness-oriented world, students need practical knowledge of how to deal with that world. In the ACCOUNTING SOCIETY, the students find that the activities they engage in and the guest speakers at club meetings help to broaden the scope in the business world, according to Tammy Riddick, the society's president. Our purpose is to provide busi- ness knowledge to accounting students and to gain exposure in the business world. The student accountants gained employment experience through volunteer service. During the income tax season, they as- sisted senior citizens, disabled persons. and students through the Voluntary Income Tax Assis- tants program tVlTAy, sponsored by the Internal Revenue Service. The Society offers students an opportunity to learn, to serve, and to have fun with others pre paring to enter the world of ac- counting. If you think that all farmers do Is work, then you have been in the city too long! The AGRICUL- TURE CLUB is on campus to show that farming is not all work by conducting activities that pro- mote the iifun of farming. The student farmers sponsored the Ag Olympics in the fall. The orga- nization also hosted the annual Farmers' Field Day. The Ag Club was active in col- lege sponsored events as well. Their homecoming float won third place and they sponsored Mela dy Owen as their queen candi- date. Julie Boswell, their sweet- heart candidate, became a finalist in the competition.

ARMSTRONG Organizationst213 :q4-4. u: '4, a two WU: v.4: Joining In very small details have been for- gotten. The organization's main goal is to teach the student prac- tlcal application of his skills. The group held regular meetings and their annual Marketing Sympo- sium, which featured guest lectur- ers. As a means of funding and a break from their work, the Ameri- can Marketing Association also held a bake sale. Looking for 'tdiversity? Just walk south of the campus across Mitchell to the BAPTIST STUDENT UNION. There are many types of people and a variety of activities they engage in. We are always growing and changing, said Steve Maberry, past president of the BSU. The Baptist fellowshippers have sponsored various activities during the year. They featured Tim Sheppard in a September concert and guest ministers in October for the Why Live a Christian Life? lectures. They went to Kansas City for a World Missions Encounter weekend. During the year they have been involved in car washes, bike-a-thons, and a buck-a- week campaign to raise money for missions in the summer. There are 75 members in the BSU, but attendance varies from meeting to meeting. Maberry feels that students are drawn to the Baptist Student Union be- cause they can be themselves there. What have you done for some one else lately? The members of the CIRCLE K CLUB are banded together because of the oppor- tunity to serve people. related Mary Kathryn Carter, president of the campus chapter of Circle K International. Circle K is sponsored by the lo cal Kiwanis Club, a community service organization, and the col- lege group assists the parent group in their activities. Local representatives attended the Regional Circle K Internation- al Convention in Columbia, Mis- souri. A regional scholarship, the Earl Collins Memorial Scholarship, was awarded to Beth-ann Bartels, a member of the local chapter. It is not easy helping others. Taking time out of your busy day may seem impossible, but it can be fun and bring happiness to someone else and to yourself. Circle K can provide the opportu- nity to share a little happiness! What campus group sits around doing boring churchy thing? It is certainly not the CHRISTIAN CAMPUS HOUSE! The CampuS House members read the Bible, pray, sing, talk, and have fun do lng it. Chris Hamilton, president ol Christian Campus House, has ob served that Hpeople tend to 'peg' a group with the word' 'Christianl in their name. but we do have a great time! The Christian Campus House members kept busy in the fall by having a cookout for the dorm students and a tall retreat. A spring retrat was held at the Lake 1 of the Ozarks. In warm weather, the fellowship group enjoyed playing sand volleyball. There is good cooperation among all the members because of the Christian atmosphere. One guest observed, I've never seen people that are so close to each other! That is what the Christian Campus House is all about. They do not carry guns, swing billy clubs or walk beats, but DEL- TA PHI UPSILON, does take pride in what they know about criminal justice professions.

Organizations t 215 Joining In and letting MWSC and St. Joseph know that we're here. Now we can set more goals and hope for even better years. Their biggest event was Law Day which involved demonstra- tions from law enforcement orga- nizations such as the Federal Bu- reau Investigation, Secret Service and local canine units. Many Delta Phi Upsilon mem- bers were seen at College Cen- 246r0rganizations ter Board and Student Governmnt Association activities providing the security. Who says criminal justice ma- jors cannot have fun? They at- tended several Royals games, played intramurals, participated in Homecoming and won the jumpathon for the Heart Founda- tion. THE DORM ASSOCIATION, a catalyst for dorm student activi- CARMODY ties, organized. promoted and su pervised Royals Night, a square dance, a weinie roast and a disco among many activities. According to member Jeanette Sires. Royals Night and an ice skating party were major successes, with a turn-out oi over 100 students attending each event. The Dorm Association is made up of twelve resident assistants and five elected members. The new resident assistants are active and enthused and the dorm stu dents have become more in- volved, Jeanette feels. t'Leadership was good, Jeanette remarked, and the ex- perience of our new members next year will be even better. It is always great to be hon ored and that is what KAPPA DEL- TA Pl does for its members. Kappa Delta Pi is an honorary society for education majors. The organization here is only two years old, but there are already 40 members. Members of the group must be a junior or above, plan to teach, be in the upper 20 per cent and be recommended by a faculty member. The group had a Christmas par- ty and a picnic for members and faculty of the education depart- ment. Dr. Donald Mahaffey, faculty member. said, We don't have a lot of social activities or fund rats ers on campus because we are an honorary society. He said that the main function of Kappa Delta Pi is to help the members with any problems they may be having, but more importantly, to honor education students who are excelling in their field.

The INTER-FRA TERNAL COUNCIL is a mixed fraternity club that is business-minded enough to meet on a weekly basis and tun-loving enough to sponsor campus mix- ers. The council initiated two campus mixers in January which, according to advisor Marc Solo man, were disappointing. Admis- sion to the mixers was free, as well as refreshments, but student turn-out was low, Solomon noted. The PANHELLENIC organization on campus is affiliated with the National Panhellenic Society. It is composed of representatives from each sorority who deter- mine goals for all the sororities, according to advisor Judy Giddens. Both the lnter-Fraternal Council and Panhellenic organization par- ticipated in promoting the Greek system during Greek Week, which began April 26. Greek Week was a highlight event of both the organizations. Promoting the Greek system to its fullest is a goal of LAMBDA CHI ALPHA. The fraternity is based on brotherly love, friendship, and bettering the school and campus. The group started off the year with their annual aII-school Beef and Beer Bust. They went through 30 kegs of beer and 1.000 ham- burgers. ' At Halloween, the group spon- sored a Haunted Farest in the woods behind their fraternity house. People came from as far as Kansas City to see what the fuss was about. Profits of $1,500 were given to Noyes Home. They had other activities such as a softball tournament, for any team in the area, Valentunes for Valentines Day and a Superdance Marathon during Greek Week, with all the profits going to charities in the St. Jo seph area. During the spring they had an aII-school Pig Roast, a Greek Toga Party and an Easter Egg Hunt in their woods for the Noyes Home. Lambda Chi Alpha's brotherly love and friendship towards each other and the entire school car- ried them far down the road of success this year. They promoted the Greek System to a great ca- pacity and they are getting bet- ter all the time. What is new in the music world is what MUSIC EDUCATOR'S NA- TIONAL CONFERENCE teaches. This group helps the student prepare for their first year of teaching. The group sponsored a roller skating party at B. 8t J.'s, and sponsored a music clinic for area schools. The Homecoming Parade' would not have been the same wlthout the Music Educator's Na- tional Conference. They met the band members from the visiting high schools and helped prepare the band members' lunches and provided assistants for the band judges.

Fink said, ilSometimes school and all that learning can give a person real problems. It's nice to be able to talk with other people who have gone through the same thing. Relating to one another makes the world go 'round. Relating to one another also makes the NEW- MAN CLUB go 'round. The 25 members of this Catho llc group can be found together at the weekly Sunday Mass and through the week at different ac- tlvities. The group started off their year with a picnic and outdoor Mass SAVING at Bartlett Park. The club had a Homecoming Queen candidate, Terri Mueller, and their Homecoming sign in front of the SSTC building won second place. Advisor Frank Kessler said, We are looking forward to the future of the club, and feel that things will start picking up for us soon. PHI MU has been active on the campus for ten years and contin- ued being one of the most ac- tive groups. The year was busy for the members. March 4 was their annual spring rush party with Sigma Kappa. The Pink Carnation Ball held at the Swiss Chalet for mem- bers and their dates was a big success. The buffet dinner and dance were something special the girls looked forward to all year. The annual wine and cheese party gave the girls an opportunity to get together and relax. The sisters also collected canned goods at Christmas time for the needy of St. Joseph. Their Project Hope showed how much the sisters were committed to helping others. Their goals for this year were to promote sisterhood and develop a stronger commitment to each other and their chapter. Jill Miller was the advisor for Phi Mu and her hopes for another active year are strong. President Nancy Hatten said, What we all hope for in the future is to be able to share common interests and goals through sisterhood. Being able'to purchase their own house at 1725 South 33rd after being organized only two years was a major achievement for the 36 members of PHI SIGMA EPSILON. Considered one of the most active groups on campus, the group won the Homecoming float prize for the second year in a row and also won the window painting contest at East Hills dur- Af Kowalskis', a favorite night spot, Don McCall finds out about Griffon Piss e a drink the management concocted for Homecoming.

In the spring, they initiated an es- cort service for women students who needed to be on campus at night. An all-school wake in memory of the infamous Mussio Bennetti was held at Horseshoe Lake. Funds collected there were used to finance the spring Formal held at the Sheraton Hotel in Kansas City. Members of the organization were pleased with the distinction of having the highest GPA of any Greek group on campus. After a large drop to only sev- en active members, the Pre-Law Club entered its third year here and is still hanging in there. John Corcoran, president, said, Law is only good for the people who really enjoy it. Even if there's only a few in our organization, it's still worthwhile. The group's main function is to provide the student with informa- tion on how to become a law- yer. Special guests such as Lee NO- tion, defense attorney, attended the group's regular meetings to t speak on the subject of law. Cor- coran said, It's exciting to meet Joining In these people and listen to them because they can teach us so much. Not only do the members help each other but they also give time to the community. They en- tered a tood-drive contest through Inter Serve and received second place. Corcoran said, We just felt like we should do something for St. Joseph. If there is one field of work with ideas that are constantly chang- lng, it must be psychology. The PSYCHOLOGY CLUB keeps stu- dents on their toes and aware of new ideas and methods at all times. The group, with 25 members, heard several lecturers speak on the most current and provoca- tive issues of the decade. These speakers gave their audiences the knowledge and the chance to become a part of these new ideas. The year started off with a Fall Social. A Christmas party was giv- en tor the St. Joseph Hospital. and they held a Senior Apprecia- tion Luncheon, honoring outstand- ing students. The club feels that they have great potential in aiding psychol- ogy students, but they also strive to encourage everyone to take interest in psychology.

Sigma Tau Delta sent three people to their regional conven- tion in St. Louis, which was quite an accomplishment because they funded it themselves. A bake sale and book sale helped finance the trip. The organization entertained several renowned authors such as Jim Bogen, The Ozark Poet, and Mike McIntosh, The Renais- sance Man. They also spon- sored a Middle School Creative Writing Day. Learning how to be a profes- sional before you really get the job is tough, but the STUDENT NURSES ASSOCIA TION gives nurs- lng students a good ideal of what it will be like after gradu- ation. In their second year, the group has already grown to 40 mem- bers. They expect to keep grow- Ing because of the increasing number of students entering the medical field. Their main purpose is to help prepare the student for the pro fessional responsibilities expected of a nurse. The Student Nurses Association entered a float in the Homecom- lng parade, participated in a Blood Pressure Clinic and had a fall picnic for members and facul- ty. The WESTERN ATHLETIC ASSOCI- ATION assists not only its 45 mem- bers but also all athletes on campus. They help students with things all the way from scholar- ships to social activities. The group participated in Homecoming with a float and won first place for their car. They also helped run the con- cession stands during. basketball games. Falls said that the club had a good year. Their immediate goal is to become more socially in- volved on campus. TAU KAPPA EPSILON Fraternity started the fall semester with a constructive rush program to ob tain new members, won second place in the Homecoming Float Contest and raised over $1500 for Muscular Dystrophy. The chapter kept pretty busy with activities and fulfilling goals throughout the year. The Noyes Home is a special concern of theirs; they especially liked Christ- mas carolling and a Christmas party shared with the children. Special money making projects such as raffles were held. The Swiss Chalet was the setting for the annual Red Carnation Ban- quet held in the spring. Chapter members also travelled to a leadership conference at North- west Missouri State. The members of our fraternity have their differences. admitted former president Jim Hoene, but we usually resolve them in a con- structive manner.

Your college years are supposed to be the best years of your life. But leaving family and friends for the first time and moving into a large and impersonal dor- mitory can be a serious emotional strain for college freshman. And the academic pressures of finding and keeping a job can weigh heavily on any student. Fortunately, there are kind folks like Mark Alterman around who are more than willing to turn a sympathet- ic ear. Mark served this year as campus minister for the MWSC Christian Campus House at 1503 Weisenborn. Our purpose, he explained, is to help Christian students mature and grow and to reach those people that have needs. 232 t Personalities Counseling, therefore, is a major function of the Christian Campus House, Mark said. We try to reach those students who have needs and to present the gospel to them in a believable way so they can ma ture and reach their goals. The Christian Campus House offered a variety of oth er programs this year as well, including Bible study ses sions and living facilities for both male and female stu dents. i think one thing we do need to make clear, how' ever, is that Christian Campus House activities aren't just for students who live here, Mark said.

Koehnlein, Don Marketing By Lori Roberts Starting their own business directly after graduation may be the furthest thing from the minds of most col- lege students. But for David Kern, a December, 1980 Leisure Management graduate, the next step after graduation was seIf-empioyment. Kern and his father have toyed around with the idea of a tanning salon for about a year. The idea became a reality with the opening of Happy Tan in Topeka and Manhatten, Ks. The then-student looked at the Kansas salons and liked what he saw, so U- Kan-Tan was born at 3418 Ashland, in the Ashland 34 Shopping Center. Its July opening proved to be more successful than anticipated, because of the excessive heat in the summer. Kern's employment continued into the fall semester to earn him credit in the Leisure Man- agement Field Experience Iii course. Kern, besides his background in Leisure Manage- ment, also took some business courses. He feels that his courses and his previous employment at the Spaulding Racquetball Club prepared him for his move into the business world. He points to two things, advertising and educating the public on the units themselves, as the most difficult parts of getting started in the tanning salon business. The young entrepreneur is pleased with his new business. He says that the greatest challenge is to keep the customers happy and to keep them com- ing in. This challenge is made easier by the fact that Kern thinks of his job as ufun. , With a positive attitude toward his work and ,,his concern with making people happy, David Kern and U-Kan-Tan may be even more successful in the future. .

Juana Johnson, a 25year-old mother of two, said, I felt as though my brain was turning to baby food after being around the kids all the time. 'The kids take it for granted that I'm in school. My oldest boy is pretty independent, she added. I think there are basically two reasons for women returning to college. First, they like the idea of know- ing that whatever happens at home they have built themselves something away from home, and sec- ondly, they like the feeling of being independent, she explained. Juana also pointed out that she would like for her children to go to college in the future, but that she wasn't going to push them. If they want to be a garbage collector, that's fine, just as long as they're happy, she concluded. Roberts, Sally Clerical Robinson, Teresa Physical Ed. Roggy, Judith Elementary Ed.

She won first place in the open women's divi- sion and was also recognized for being the most muscular and best poser, best chest, back, and ab domen. To prepare for her first meet Kate started training three months in advance on a strict diet and rigid training program. During the first two months Kate worked out three hours a day, six days a week and lost approximate ly 24 pounds. Her diet was threephase, each phase lasting one month. The first week of the diet is the hardest, said Kate. When asked how she managed to keep her self discipline, Kate explained that being able to see herself progress kept her going. Without encour- agement from her roommate and other body-build- ers who were going through the same thing, or who had already been through it, Kate said she wouldn't have been able to do it. There were times when Kate went to bed at 8 pm. to avoid eating. i'What's really bad was going to bed hungry, waking up hungry and then having to eat a can of tuna for breakfast, she stated. While in training Kate attended classes in prepara- tion for her student teaching af Lafayette High School, worked part-time at Safeway, and did exer- cises and practiced her posing every night. Her body was forced to use the energy that was stored in the muscle tissue. The last phase of her diet was called the cut diet, or nerve energy phase. This phase forced the body to burn up any excess fat left from the first two phases.The diet consisted of poultry, such as turkey Bailey, Gayla Ball, James Baker, James Banks, Rae Ann Bareiss, Lori Barlow, Becky Barnes, Ardelia Barnes, Ken Barnes, Jerry Barnett, Dixie Barneff, Kevin Barnett, Jeff Barry, Sharon Barrels, Befh-ann Barton, Kay Basher, Opal Bashor, Marchell Baublifr, Brigeffe Bauman, JanetI Bauman, Loretta Beauchamp, Lenore Beanie, Sherry Becky, Carla Belofe, Teresa Befhel, Cynthia Bennaka, Larry Beyer, Jenny Bird, Carole Personalities r 241 v a$w-W llncredible' Kate and chicken, baked or broiled with no skin, and tuna. No sauces such as mayonnaise, ketchup, mus- tard, etc. were allowed, with only little soleepper, water or tea. Needless to soy, Kate was not able to indulge in any alcoholic beverages or junk food. The most difficult thing is giving up your social life. In American society, activities are based on food, Kate remarked. Her employment at Sofewoy also made the diet more difficult as she had to look at food continuously. ' Kate's interest in body building started as a way for her to keep physically fit. For the past year she had been working out two or three times a week. She attended a body building meet where they had a woman guest poser. Kate said she thought to herself, Hey! I can do that, and was thus on her way to a new and differ- ent sport. Kote developed or total devotion to being a recognized womon body-builder and also devel- oped a deep appreciation for the sport which she relates to as an art. Contrary to popular belief body. builders are not judged on the size of their muscles but rather on their form. Such things as symmetry, detinition, muscle tone, flexibility, along with grace and basic feminine qualities such as facial expressions and grooming are important. Kate poses to music, so the posing is much like dancing. Her confidence continued to build and Kate remarked prior to the competition, I'm confident and I'm going into this meet to win! Her welI-lounded confidence was proved as Kate won over and over again at the meet. Kate will complete her education with o 8.8. in English Education, but she also hopes to continue with body building, hopefully someday going to Cali fornio to further her training and become a National Champion Body Builder. With the winning look of determination, Kale trains for her next competition.

She is wife, mother, student, and volun- teer worker all rolled into one. Yet, despite her com- plex workload, she always seems to have time for a cheerful greeting and a warm smile. Terri, as she prefers to be called. has been going lull force since her graduation from an Aurora, Kan- sas high school at the age of 16. She first began studies at Kansas City Secretarial School and gradu- ated after only six months. After that she worked as a secretary in Kansas City and also for a time in Ja- pan. Upon her return to the States, Terri moved to St. Jo seph where she worked for Westab as a cost esti- motor for several years. She and her husband, Marvin, along with a total of five children moved to an 80-acre farm in rural Stewartsville, Mo. Terri decided to become a full-time mother, but that did not hinder her from doing volun- teer work for school and church. She became an active participant in PTA and also served as youth director and women's leader for the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Terri has also taken an active part in politics and worked as secretary for republicans of the 6th Congressional District. Terri's decision to return to school came in the loll of 1977 when her daughter, Elaine, was also begin. ning her freshman year. Terri stated, I wanted to be able to serve more effectively in my community and church. For the past threeand-onehalt years Terri has been working toward a double major in English with em- phases in writing and communications. She also has worked for a double minor in speech communico tions and journalism. One of Terri's proudest moments here came when she learned she had ranked in the 99th percentile on the College Level Entrance Program test. She also was the top scorer here. Terri was listed in Who's Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges. In addition, Terri was named to the National Dean's List. When the fall semester of 1980 comes to a close we will be losing an excellent student as well as a friend.

This is the favorite saying of Re nee Kellis, a woman athlete active in volleyball and tennis. A five toot. five inch blonde sophomore from lnde pendence, Mo.. Renee came here on a volleyball 2X? 'f scholarship. A back-tonature person, she loves the out-ot-doors. That is one reason she chose Missouri Western State. I like the atmosphere here. It is relaxed and small enough so i can get to know everyone and devel- op personal relationships. It also allows me to enjoy the country scenery and at the same time be near the city, she said. Renee travels with the women's varsity volleyball team and hopes to become a starter. Renee feels that women have the advantage over men as far as volleyball is concerned. llln the past, men's volleyball hasn't been taken as seriously as other men's sports. Football and basketball have been the crowd attractors and they have received the necessary equipment and training. Renee would like to be seen as an athletic equal on the volleyball court, but as a woman off the court. I want a man to treat me as another athlete on the court and not be atraid to hit a ball at me. Off the court I want to be treated like a woman. For instance, I like having doors opened for me, she said. This nature activist loves participating in sports, but realizes that her career has top priority. She is majoring in Leisure Management with a professional emphasis in outdoor recreation. That degree would enable her to pursue her dream of becoming a forestry and park manager in the Northwest. In college, I know that I am an athlete, but my career is important to me. I want to teach people to live in harmony with nature, how to live and play in the out-ot-doors without destroying it, she explained. Renee Kellis enjoys the wilderness.

There have been several rumors, but I can't be lieve that we will never see them again, Lharmony remarked. The Cambodian sisters came to this country when the communist party took over Cambodia. Their par- ents were in the country when it fell. Though the girls know little about their parents' whereabouts, they are not without a family. Since 1976 the girls have lived with their sponsor parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jubie Pendleton. ilWe c'ouldn't see splitting them up, the Pendeltons agreed. They have had enough trou- ble. Mr. Pendleton also explained that they couldn't see sending the girls to a refugee camp. When the Pendletons decided to have the girls stay with them, there were several adjustments that had to be made. Lharmony and Vanneary were Lharmony and Vanneary stay very close and hope that one day they will see their natural parents. used to a different life style from that of the Pendletons. The biggest adjustment was getting them to adapt to the American way of life, explained Mr. Pendleton. Mrs. Pendleton added, Another adjust- ment was that in Cambodia the women are not al- lowed to date. ' You find out everything you need to know when you get married, Lharmony laughed. Lharmony and Vanneary are not alone. They have a brother and a sister in Ohio and two sisters in Texas. All escapedthe terror of Cambodia and came to this country with the help of families like the Pendletons. One of the biggest regrets the Pendletons have is the number of families that are unwilling to sponsor refugees. There is no sense in those children starving to death. They are human beings and should be treat- ed as such, Mr. Pendleton remarked. As the Pendletons enjoy their extended family, they learn from the girls a new set of ideas and val- ues from which every American can learn, thanks to one famil who cared. y Personalitiesr249 Squirrel Chaser At Mo. West By Theresa Zawodny Joe Cool chases girls, but Sharri Duty chases ground squirrels. Ground squirrels? I love animals, Sharri, an elementary education major, said as she began to describe her unique and squirrelly affairs. I like chasing the ground squir- rels here on campus. They're so nice and gentle. While on campus one day I was standing and talking to someone and didn't know if I was standing directly on a ground squirrel's hole or if he just want- ed to touch the top of my tennis shoe, she contin- ued. I also got one to eat peanuts out of my hand. It reminded me of my squirrel I once had, she add- ed. All animals. both stuffed and real, are special to Sharri. I have close to seventy-five or eighty stuffed ani- mals. That's a lot to put in a small room. Oh, I have a stuffed ground squirrel also. I received him as a gift my senior year in high school, Sharri related. Sharri said. One of my biggest dreams is to' have a ranch in Kentucky to raise all sorts of animals. It'd be hard just to raise squirrels, and having the ranch would be difficult, especially being a teacher. Nevertheless, while those cute. little ground squir- rels keep scampering along the college green, they remain Sharri's special friends. ,, titular ' , Qaglyxl:ld.l ' Sharrl Duly, among her collection of furry friends, displays a replica of ground squrriel she often chases on campus. 250 y Personalities STRUBE w WHm ,.-,Wm w-MW ......... .G. .W ...... .q..- u ,. .

By Beth-ann Bartels I love to teach, because when I teach others. I can also learn myself. This is Woodie Howgill's idea about working as a part-time instructor in both the English Department and the SpeecthheatrelHumanities Department. With her Masters in English, she teaches Composition classes, and, with her avid interest in Greek to Mid- dle Ages Culture, plus her minor in Speech, Woodie began teaching Humanities at the start of the spring semester. But there was more than teaching that drew Woodie to the campuseher husband, Martyn Howgill, is vice-president of Development. Martyn started here in 1973, then moved to New Hampshire to work for a collegiate public relations firm. The Howgills returned to St. Joseph in 1976, with Martyn resuming his previous responsibilities, and Woodie began teaching. But, why come back to St. Joseph? Well, we wanted to be near a college campus, Woodie said. She continued, We enjoy being a part of campus life, as well as the community. Our involvement with the college is as important as our community responsibilities. It seems that one is al ways helpful to the other. tand vice versaJ Along with teaching and her civic positions, Woodie is also the mother of two children-Molly Jane, eleven, and Billy, eight. The children just love the college, especially the extracurricular activities. We take them to as many of the football and bas- ketball games as possible, Woodie added. Woodie's goals for the future are interwoven, and yet, are each a separate entity of herself. She plans to continue teaching, and hopes to move into a full time position on the teaching staff. She also wants to stay involved with the community, saying that she wants to become a part of St. Joseph. 50, whether it is teaching in two departments, do ing civic work, or being with her husband and chil dren, Woodie Howgill is already establishing herself as a part of St. Joseph, and is a special asset to the college campus.

I'll be out of town, in- stalling a pipe organ with my dad. You have probably never used it because you would be laughed right out of the classroom. But for Paul Cool, a junior here, it would be a very real reason for being away from classes. Paul has a very unlque part-time job as an employee for his family's business, the Temple Organ Company of St. Joseph. Paul said his responsibilities vary from that of an as- sembly line worker to a furniture maker to a chauf- feur. I may spend up to two weeks cutting leather and felt circles for the valves, and the next week will find me driving a thousand miles with my father to tune an organ. The majority of the organ work is done by Paul, his father, Fred, and his oldest brother, David. The team of craftsmen usually work on more than one organ at a time and complete three or four each year. According to Paul, An 'average' size organ costs about $35,000 and can be completed in about six months, but it may be two or three years from the time that the contract is written until the organ is in stalled. The only organ in St. Joseph which bears the com- pany name is in the Seventeenth Street congrega- tion of the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Lat- ter Day Saints, of which the Cool family are active members. The pipe organ in the St. Mary's Catholic Church was completely rebuilt by the family and they have also repaired other organs in the St. Jo seph area. Most of the contracts, however, are drawn up for organs outside the area. which in- volves the Cool family in a large amount of travel- ing. Travel is the aspect of the job which Paul enjoys most. His work has taken him north to Racine. Wis- consin, and south to Caruthersville, a small town in the Missouri bootheel. Paul says that Caruthersville is the most interesting town he has been in so far be cause the people there consider themselves South- erners and even speak with a Southern accent. Paul has considered making the family trade his career, but is still not certain of his future plans. A eawwrwmkf'tw possibility of an organ contract in Germany proves to be a unique opportunity for the organ builder's son. He also enjoys the chance to meet new peo ple because you share so much with them in such a short period of time. The travel and variety of an organ builder's lite would never strike a sour note with Paul Cool, the student employee of the Temple Organ Company. 254 T Personalities SEGO I Germany proves 1e organ builder's ro meet new peo with them in such :rgan builder's life with Paul Cool, the Ngan Company.

These students are Half and Half By Karen Pickett A transformation in the lives of Glory Christensen and Paul Pickett takes place three days each week at noon. They change from high school seniors into college freshmen. Both are students at Stewartsville, Mo. High School. They had enough credit to finish the year with a half- day schedule. Since both were planning to continue their education, they received permission from their high school to attend afternoon classes here where they are taking six hours. They are enrolled in College Algebra and their in- structor, Dr. David John, said, They seem to fit in very well and are making the same grades they did In high school. Coming from a small high school with a senior class of 22 students does not seem to be a handi cap. John said, in my experience. students from small schools are often better prepared than those from city schools, mostly because they are able to re ceive more individual instruction in high school. Glory and Paul have shared many honors during high school. Both have been named Outstanding Student, are in the National Honor Society and were chosen to attend Freedom Forum, a youth leader- ship camp at Mexico. Mo. They have both been listed as Distinguished High School Students in America and Paul has been in- cluded twice in Who's Who Among American High School Students. Glory is interested in journalism and works on her high school news staff as a writer and photographer. She hopes to join the staff of one of the publications here for two years, then transfer to the University of Missouri School of Journalism.

He also met Henry Kissinger and several state de partment officials whom he feels helped him gain in- sight into us. foreign policy. He was chosen to contribute to a volume entitled i'Dimehsions of the Modern Presidency. His segment was entitled The President and Congress-the Do mestic Triangle. Unlike teachers in some larger schools who are re leased from teaching while they are writing, Kessler continued his classes with as many as 15 hours each semester. That often meant working in his ot- fice until 14 or 12 at night. With a family of a wife and four small children, he sometimes found too few hours in the day. Kessler's educational background includes a bach- elors and a masters degree from St. Louis University and a Ph.D. in international relations from Notre Dame. In 1978 he received the Outstanding Educa- tor Award from the St. Joseph Jaycees. Dr. Frank Kessler discusses some class materials with one of hls students.

As on employee of the St. Joseph Public Library, Cindi Auxier has an altogether different viewpoint. She sees, the library as a place to meet new and in- teresting people, as well as the opportunity to help those who need her assistance. But Cindi's preoccupation with books does not stop with her job. She is also a full-time student majoring in English. A transfer student from Southwest Baptist College in Bolivar, Mo.. Cindi stated she was Impressed with the English Communications program. HAII of my instructors here have been great. said Cindi, especially Dr. Sawin. She is an excellent teacher who has the ability to make you want to continue to search the material long after the assign- ment is complete. In her spare time, Cindi enjoys being with her hus- band, Roger, and their dog, who, ironically, is named after her favorite author, Shakespeare. When her studies here are completed, Cindi plans to obtain a Master's degree in library science. She hopes to one day work as a librarian in a smoII-town library. She said, It would be very rewarding to watch a small library grow into a large one and know that I had a hand in its growth.

To insure the good graces of her students' par- ents, Fields sent her pupils home every Friday with a newsletter to inform parents of the next week's ac- tivlties. It kept me out of trouble, she smiled. But weekly contact with their children's teacher also proved to be a big hit among the parents, and when Fields be Mary Jane Fields shows her students a book from which she is lec- Iuring. gan teaching in the college's education depart- ment, she gave rise to another type of newsletter- THOUGHTS. THOUGHTS is a three pagemonthly publication de signed for people who conduct early childhood classrooms, from preschool through the second grade. Each of the 10 issues published yearly can- 266 7 Personalities CARMODY tains songs, poems, activities, crafts, games, finger pup pet plays, and other such thoughts which teachers can adapt to meet the needs and circumstances or the children in their own classrooms. Fields writes and compiles the publication for which Dr. Nancy Edwards, associate professor of edu cation here, prepares one page of mathematics ac- tivities each issue. Fields' daughter, Trudi Kepner, sup plies all of the artwork, and Marie Heerlein, education department secretary, handles the tasks of typing and keeping the mailing list in the college's comput- er banks up to date. In the past seven years, THOUGHTS has grown from a onepage newsletter read by only a handful of educators in St. Joseph, to a threepage publication read by 1,200 subscribers in 41 states and the Dis trict of Columbia, as well as Equador, Nigeria, West Atri ca, Liberia, Saudi Arabia, Jamaica, Nova Scotia, Bolivia and the Netherlands. We've had nothing but complimentary testimonials about THOUGHTS, Fields said. Readers send literally dozens of letters each week to her, praising the publication, purchasing subscriptions as gifts for friends, or submitting contributions for the next month's issue. Like any new publication, THOUGHTS had a rather shaky and disorganized beginning. The first year was kind of a jumble. Fields re called at the publication's first few issues. We just weren't very well organized yet. During the 1973-74 school year, she said, they were concerned primarily with getting the product out, one issue at a time, and they couldn't bother with developing a central topic or theme for each issue. But by the second year. she said, they had decid- ed to center each month's publication around some central topic. For the next three years, she ex- plained, one letter of the alphabet was featured in each of the monthly publications, and during the 1977-78 school year. a different number, 1 through 10, was the monthly topic. The ten 1978-79 school year issues featured unholidays each month, including Pinocchio's Birth day, Aardvark Week, Mother Goose Day, Johnny Appleseed Day, and National New Idea Day. Last year. each monthly issue was devoted to a different color. And this year, each issue centered around a real holiday, such as Halloween, Thanksgiv- ing, Christmas, and Easter.

Give Poul o Coll By Kim Wiggs There is a bright and smiling man on campus that resembles a student-young, toll, lean and curly hoired-but holds the position of Sports Information Director for the college and the Central States Inter- collegiate Conference. Poul Sweetgoll, a native oi Hudson. N.Y., spends anywhere from 70 to 80 hours per week at his job, collecting and dispersing sports information through out the Midwest. His work entails the writing and sending of press re leases to a number of area colleges and universi ties, phoning wire services, handling the advertising for game programs and traveling to sports events. Though traveling with the athletic teams is just one port of the job, Sweetgoll looks forward to each trip. He said. I only travel a couple of days every other week, but I enjoy it. It breaks the routine. Western may not be a huge college, but our teams do go to some nice places. I've traveled with Paul Sweefgall pounders his thoughts at a home Basketball game he has just watched. the basketball team to cities such as Birmingham. Ala., and Orlando, Flo., Sweetgoll said. Sweetgoll come here from Ohio State where he entered graduate school and worked in the Sports Information department for one year. He said. Working at Ohio State prepared me for the doy-to day activities of my job here. I've learned how to relate to people. and how to put the information to good use. With so many hours per week at the job, Sweetgoll has very little free time for himself, but he does not seem to mind. He said, '1 enjoy my job be cause l have a lot of freedom in what I do. And dur- ing the spring, things start to lighten up and I can have 0 little more of a social life. The job of sports information director and the man, Poul Sweetgoll, are great assets to our campus.

Looney, president of the college for the past 14 years, is a man of leadership, action, ideas, and responsibilities. He is also a community leader, weekend athlete and family man. His day is filled with conferences and meetings, sometimes starting with a 7:30 am. breakfast with one organization and ending with another group at 9 that evening. Definitely a very busy person. Some say he is a very private man, while others praise his involvement and interest in both the school and community. So, who exactly is this per- son who presides over the administration, faculty and students? Looney was born in Gainesville, Mo. and after serv- ing with the U.S. Navy during World War II, he re turned to Missouri and earned his bachelor's degree from Southwest Missouri State College. He then com- pleted his master's and doctorate degrees at the University of Arkansas and, following this, was protes- sor of administration at Central Missouri State Col- lege in Warrensburg for three years. He then be came Dean of Instruction at Kellogg Community College in Battle Creek, Mich. He left Kellogg to be come president of Mahoning Community College in Youngstown, Ohio. On April 29, 1967, Looney be came president of Missouri Western State College. These changes did not interrupt his personal lite. Deloris Looney, a member of the Faculty Wives and Ambassadors, is kept busy with the entertainment side of her husband's job. And. it she is not working on a project for the college, she is planning a com- munity event, Looney commented. He smiled, while he continued, She is a very busy woman. Looney smiles again as he discusses his three sons: Doug, his eldest, is the manager at Casey Meyer's; Bill, the middle son, is a student physical education teacher at Bode Middle School. Meanwhile, Chris, his youngest, is in the second year of medical school at UMKC. Along with being a proud father, he also has two granddaughters. How does Looney, the administrator, view the past fourteen years at MWSC? He is especially pleased that the college has been recommended for accreditation for a ten-year peri- od, the longest term possible. Also. enrollment has increased each year since the four-year program began in 1969 and passed the 4,000 mark for the first time last fall. Another high point of the past year was the em- ployment of 90 percent of the students registered with the college Placement Center. 0 i wamr-uasm-u. e.v...-..-........, - ,- t- WW mmhhemm .. ,m...v ,, -::- In his study, iopposiiei Dr. Looney often spends hours working after leaving his office.

Maybe students currently are more goaI-orlented, but generally stu- dents are students. The past years were concen trated with building the physical plant, and he believes the main emphasis now should be to con- tinue to upgrade the quality of education offered. Has he recelved the support he hoped for? Looney said, ttWe have had the dedication and cooperation of the St. Joseph community, of our legislators, the news media and the students employment to make what once was a cornfield into a college that all of us can be proud of.

First Woman on Board of Regents was a Super Member By Jill Pierson Shirley Bradley was the first woman to serve on the Board of Regents. She was appointed by Governor Kit Bond during his first term and dedicated her service to the board for approximately ten years. Her term expired in October. I'm going to miss it, Bradley admitted. It's intriguing, interest- lng and we have gone so far. I hope they put another woman on the board. They need a wom an's point of view. Current Board President Dale Maudlin said emphatically, I have enjoyed working on the board with Shirley. She was a su- per member, dedicated to the college. The Board of Regents has been In existence as long as Missouri Western has, assuming responsibil- lty for the tour-year program since the state fully funded the college. The board consists of six members, three Democrats and three Republicans, who are poli cy makers and the governing body of the college. The board deals with such things as reviewing bids all but in- expensive purchases and ap- proving the budget. Members are appointed by the governor and approved by the local and state senator, currently Truman Wilson. were an urban college and we need to recognize that, Bradley remarked. The student population is coming from wom- en who return to college for de grees and people who want to upgrade their employment. It's interesting to see how the population has changed. A lot of our students are coming from Platte City, Smithville and North Kansas City. They probably find it easier to come up l-29 to Missouri Western than to fight the Kansas City traffic to UMKC, she noted. I think Missouri Western is an asset to the community, culturally and economically. l'm vitally in- terested in the college and think it has the potential to be the best in the state, she said. Bradley is a sustaining member of the Junior League. She enjoys reading and embroidering in her spare time. She also likes to en- tertain. She welcomed columnist Jack Anderson as a guest in her home when he made an appear- ance in St. Joseph.

I was a June Baby so I should have been a girl. Soft, sweet and lovable. July is the month .for boys. Eder said. Lucky for St. Joseph and the college that Eder was a boy and turned out to be the successful and kind businessman that he is. Eder said, My motto is: What's good for St. Joe is good for Fred. And he certainly lives by that statement. He has lived in St. Joseph for 65 years and he takes great pride in the success of the city. As a member of the College's Board of Regents, Eder has had the top hand in a great number of Inprovements and projects on campus. He boosted the building of the dorm tennis courts and lights, for example, and is now pushing very hard to get lights Fred Eder reminisces about his life In Sf.

I'm going to do anything I can to help keep the young people here In St. Joseph because they are the future of our city. Eder said. Eder holds very strong teelings where the students of our campus are concerned. He said, I feel that no one should be de nled the chance for a college education, it that's what they want. I don't agree totally with college entrance exams or grades because it a student real- Iy wants to be in school, I think he should be. A strong faith in God has car- ried many successful persons through life, as it has Fred Eder. Everybody's got a slot in life that God put you here for. Take what you have and do the very best that you can with it. And as you take along the way, be sure to give some back, he said. With a big smile, sparkling eyes and a Iast-minute thought, Eder said. I like what I'm doing at work and at the college. And when I am gone, I want my gold star for what I've done at the col lege and the thousands of young people who will go there. m,,,....... .sn.......,. .. ,,.,,,., .. .;,.... ., ,n . M Quite 0 Combination BY Kimm Wigqs It takes all kinds of people to make the world go around and It takes all kinds of people to make a Board of Regents go around. The Board of Regents is made up of three democrats and three republicans, all ap pointed by the governor. There is a realtor, a drugstore owner, a banker, a housewife, a lawyer and a factory owner. Some combination? They do have one very ba- slc concern in common, Fred Eder said, We really care about the students as, a' whole and individually. Because we do care, we understand the problems that students have and we want to help. A budget of ten million dol- Iars is spent each year by the college. It is the Board of Re gent's job to decide where the money goes and to be able to account for every dol- lar spent. With a touch of hu- mor, Eder said, I'You can't even get a wall painted with- out our permission. Tending to the budget may be the most important service they provide, but there are many other responsibilities. The board hires the teachers, out- lines the study courses and sets goals for the college to work towards. Eder said, We have one main goal that we are always working toward: We don't ex- pect to be the largest college In Missouri, but we do expect to be the best. The board feels that the small size of the college is an advantage because there is a better opportunity for teacher- student contact. Eder said, In larger schools there is a chance of becoming just a number, but at our college a student can get good individ- ual attention, and plenty of it. The Board of Regents han- dles many responsibilities but above all they have the re sponsibility of taking care of the students in any way that they can. Eder said. We give the students plenty of leg room, but we're watching you. 1401 50. Belt Hwy. lNext to T.G,8.Y,I 3607 Woodlawn Terrace St. Joseph, Missouri v v Ix ' a9. ' The Lioness . . . protecting he! own.

The reflection pool, in front of the SStC Building, has always been a favorite spot for student journalists. Annually, usually a day or two before the Publications Banquet, a few of the Griffon Yearbook Staff and The Griffon News Staff members hold a picnic on the beach around the cement pond to to Beverly Hillbillies; Fried Chicken, baked beans, potato salad, Coke, are all included in the menu. Then, after dinner, the crowd takes a dip in the pool, or as John Carmody trighb did, 'tshoot the rapids in a raft. Campus security frowns on this activity, as does the administration, but tradition goes on. lmlay, Ralph-2 Ingerson, Wand Inman, Jan-23 Irwin, Steve-2, Jocks, Daniel- Jackson, Chery Jackson, John Jackson, Willia Jacobs, Patty- Jacobson, 'Heidi Johnke.
