The catch? The contestant could not smile, giggle, laugh or leave a puddle behind. uMake Me Laugh , a production appearing at colleges across the country, was invited by CAB to entertain MWSC students. Before the initial contest began, the emcee, Joe Dunckel, interacted with the audience to promote audience participation. uOkay, everybody turn to the person on your right and shout tBOZOi! Now, everybody turn to the person on your left and slap their face real hardP Series of one-liners and off-the-wall jokes geared the audience toward a more relaxed atmosphere. 18 i Adventures After the audienee was broken in, Chas appeared on stage to keep the mood alive.

Big boys in little burlap bags struggled across a stretch of not more than 35 yards to begin the night with the potato sack race. In all, three races were held before Rodney Simmons emerged as champion hopper, claiming that events trophy. Next in the line of events were the cowchip and hay bale throwing contests. T hough there were a few female participants in all other events, these attracted males only. Many more people got into these events than the race but out of all the dung-slingers and bale- heavers, Andy Elam and Bob Glenn came out the respective winners. Participation was at its height with the next event. Contestants sat atop a barrel tied be tween three poles by inner tubes, bronco- busting style, while two aggies pulled on ropes attached to the barrel on opposite sides. The llMonkey Barrel, as it was called, suc- ceeded in dismounting dozens of riders. Fi- nally, Rick Steinad endured 12 seconds of jostling to Claim the trophy. The final event of the evening, the greased pig event, began with six hesitant girls and one lethargic swine. The problem did not seem So much catching this one as it was . picking it up. Finally, covered with shorten- ing, Janet Trimmer was awarded the prize. The next pig was larger and much more determined to remain out of the grasp of the six guys running after it, but from the begin- ning it seemed Kendal Foster was not going to take no for an answer. Once he had a hand on the pig, he did not let go until the animal was completely off the ground. Because of the popularity of this event, another heat was held in the menis division, and Robbie Dyer managed to shoulder the pig and advance to the finals, in which he and Foster went head to head against each other. Foster ended up top pig catcher. The evening ended as the mist turned to light rain, but everyone, observers as well as participants, seemed to have a good time, despite Mother Naturels attempt to dampen their spirits. by Shelly Ogi LEFT: Attempting to stay on the bulls Bob Glenn main- tains his balanceaPhoto by L.

Who portrayed The Cowardly Lion in The Wizard of Oz? What sport used the term mashie-niblick? Where would you be if you landed smack in the middle of Plock? If you answered Calcutta, Bert Lahr, golf and Poland, respectively, then either you have been playing the latest craze to hit America or you were born a genius. Trivial Pursuit, manufactured and distri- buted by Selchow 8: Richter, is the latest item since the Rubiks Cube and the Cabbage Patch doll to spread across America like a wild tire. More than a million games have been sold in the United States and Canada since its 1982 release. , ' The rules of the game are quite simple. A player starts the game with a token and moves around a circular path answering tor attempt- ing to answeo various questions in the categories of history, entertainment, geog- raphy, art and literature, science and nature, and spotts and leisure. The questions, of which there are 6,000 contained in the game, depend on what space the player lands on after he rolls a die. If he answers correctly, then he continues rolling until he answers incorrectly. The object of the game is to till the token with a wedge for each category, which can only be accomplished by landing on each categoryls headquarters and correctly answering the appropriate question. After the token is full the player then must reach the center of the board, whereby his opponents choose the category in Which the question is asked. Undoubtedly, this category will be that players weakest area. If the player answers correctly, the game is over. If not, the game continues. by Paul Brunner AVOVE: Students pal which was a new fa Photo by R Duncan cience and nature, The questions, of tained in the game, 1e player lands on answers correctly, ; until he answers is to fill the token ltegory, Which can I landing on each W and correctly : question. e player then must oard, whereby his egory in which the tedly, this category st area.

Duncan Adventuresi 25 Womenis Studies: An Outlet For a Variety of Students omenls Studies was initiated on the MWSC campus during the 1978-79 academic year. Since that time the program has grown to accommodate the needs of a variety of people. Devoted to the cares and concerns of all women, Womenls Studies focusesrupon three main groups: the younger student, reentry students and the women in the community. There are different approaches directed to- ward the needs of each group, and men are certainly not left out, since many of the courses offered may be of interest to them as well. The areas that are covered include continuing education classes, interdiscipli- nary courses, lectures and seminars. These are all designed to provide information and to promote an understanding of issues that relate to women and their lives. Younger students, as well as reentry stu- dents, may have problems adjusting to a col- lege life and schedule. Additional adjustments for the reentry woman would probably in- volve family and outside employment. If problems arise, Womenis Studies provides a support system for guidance and advice in all areas. Coffee and Conversation has been a popu- lar mode for women to meet informally, get to know each other and share their college experiences. An awareness of what is going on and how to cope with everyday life at school, at home and in the community is offered at these gatherings. Glenda Kelly, a participant in the Womenls Studies program for three years, said, iiCoffee and Conversation is a great way to share and know that you are not alone. This area of the program otfers a human quality to what can sometimes be a cold and rigid academic schedule. Leona Jewell, Director of Womenls Studies, stressed the importance of a new system of limentors implemented by her. ltThese men- tors, who have been here for awhile, can let RIGHT: Two students listen intently about dream analysis during a Stress Management lectureaPhoto by R.

Another part of the program that has been effective is the liLingle Family Fund . This fund was set up by the Lingle family to benefit the reentry woman. There are no income guidelines; only the need for assistance must be outlined. A person who is already helping herself can get the boost she may need to continue toward her educational goal. The aid has been given to a variety of women. One individual was temporarily laid off from her job and was close to graduation; the fund helped her to finish school. Another person was walking eight miles to school each day, and the fund helped her with trans- portation. Still another woman lost her hus- band With one semester remaining and was able to get the assistance she needed to graduate. This fund is available to help those who might not qualify for help from other financial aid programs. Getting the word out into the community is done with lectures, seminars and continu- ing education classes. Many women and men who work in the community are able to attend these functions and gain in knowledge and friendship. Statistics on this campus alone give an indication of the need for a Womenis Studies Program. Fifty-five percent of the students at MWSC are female, and of that amount, forty percent are over the age of twenty-four. by Debbie Silvey tW Director of Women S tlvities devoted to the Photo by R.

With each step, the last remnants of outside light begin to vanish. We tell ourselves that there is nothing to be afraid of we brought our three sources of light. Guided by the beam of our flashlights, we have already made the trip in and out once, transporting the gear we will need. Now we will try to make our way in without the use of our eyes-relying only on our sense of touch. We are about to cross the ill-defined area between day and night, the boundary be- tween light and total darkness. We are about to cross the lttwilight zonef This isnit a late-night television rerun, with Rod Sterling lurking somewhere in the shadows. The twilight zone, which we are about to cross, is not a frame of mind. The term refers to an actual phenomenon that occurs in caves. It is the line where the pene- tration of light dies. We are members of the beginning cave exploring class entering Cleveland cave near Oceola, Missouri. We call ourselves, tispelun- kers? Once we step across the line, we will be in total darkness. We will be able to see anyone still standing in the light. But we will be invisible to them, even though we will be only inches away. The cave will be our home for the night. But once we are inside, night and day will be as one. We are entering the limestone domain of blind, albino salamanders, bats and dripping stalactites. We will walk over, crawl in, sleep on-in total darkness, and cook breakfast on several centuries accumulation of more than 12 feet of guano-bat manure. We wonder what brings us here? The large, damp, dark chamber at the end of the first tunnel, where we stowed our gear earlier and where we will sleep, opens up before us as though we have been swallowed by some great stone creature, and we just entered the beasts stomach. We turn on our -tlashlights to make sure that we actually made it. Sighs of relief and some of disbelief carom off the surrounding walls. Not all of the members of the class returned to the entrance with us to make the trip, void of the use of light. They remained in the large chamber to marvel at the natural formations until we returned. We are all a little apprehensive about sleep- ing in this place overnight. The air is damp and heavy. It has a strong, musty odor. But the smell isnlt unbearable. We decide to worry about the smell and fact that we will 28 W Adventures Entering a New Dimension be sleeping on more than 1 2 feet of bat guano later. Now is time to explore. We all want to see the little guano-makers for ourselves. Dr. Drew Laudie, the class instructor, gives his okay for us to go exploring on our own. Safety is the first rule of caving. He stresses that we must form groups of three or more, before we go off on our own. We must each carry at least three sources of light. There are areas where rock and mountain climbing skills are useful and required as We soon discover. There are some corridors where 15 or more feet of mud-caked and slime-coated rock must be climbed to reach the exit. There are deep crevasses that must be straddled or leapt over in order to cross them. This is where the threat of slipping is constantly in the front of our minds. If a fall should occur, there is not really a need to worry. It will be broken by more than 12 feet of guano. We come to a point where we are able to put these skills to work. We must work our way along a precarious ledge-barely as wide as our boots. We inch along, hand hold by hand hold, foot hold by foot hold. Our hands and feet become as one with the mud and rockaour links to the wall, suspending us above the black void. Though we must only skirt along the ledge for a few feet in order reach a much larger shelf, we concentrate on nothing else. One by one, we scramble to the relative safety of the shelf. Careful of our footing, we approach the edge of a yawning Chasm, which lies between us and another shelf. We pause for a moment to assess our current situation. We aim our flashlights straight down into the blackness. The beams of light bounce off of a pool of water, about 30 feet below us. Despite the depth, we must cross this barrier to the pre- cipice on the opposite side. That is where the entrance to the next shaft lies. There is only one way to get across-jump. Though if it were measured, the crevasse would be only about five or six feet wide, it seems much wider. Because we have already come this far, it doesnit take that much coaxing to get us to jump. We shine our lights on the far ledge as a target for each jumper. We keep the area illuminated, until each of us has made it safely. From the ledge, we head down the next blind alley. We squeeze through a tight open- ing. The passage opens up into another large LEFT: A member of the cave exploring class, Lisa Stinson, scoots down Into a narrow shaftaPhoto byJon Kamler hall.

Our beams disappear into the shadows of a window in the wall beside Ukinto yet another coal black alleyway. We must de- scend about 15 feet through the opening to reach the floor of this next tunnel. This passage becomes much more con- stricting than the others. Exploring the un- known is the driving force that pushes us further as the crawl space progressively nar- rows as we advance. The tunnel may come to a dead end, or it may open up into another large Chamber, we cant find out, unless we keep going. We squeeze into the tube as far as we can. The wiriest member of our group leads the way. However, the passage becomes too nar- row to proceed. It doesnlt end. We can see farther back into it. It just isnit wide enough to continue. We must turn back. We trace ourfootsteps back to the main Chamber, past all of the obstacles we have already encountered. We unroll our sleeping bags and get ready for a well deserved rest. The glow of several candles which we placed around the room dances off the primitive surrounding walls, giving a very tranquilizing effect. The candles are blown out, and we drift off to sleep. We awake, still in total darkness. According to our watches, it is 10 am. Its time to leave. We pack our gear and make the trek out to the mouth of the cave. We step into the light shining through cave entrance. We are leaving the the realm of the bat, the world void of light. But one day, we shall return, back to the other side ofathe twilight zone. by J on Kamler LEFT: A crystal clear pool surrounded by natural rock formations and perpetual darkness is one of the sights in the cave.

This year, however, marked the first year since 1980 that Missouri Western had been blessed with a pom-pon squad. The newly organized Golden Griffonettes, with a fresh new name and an energetic appearance, were chosen in early October under the sponsorship of Deidre Tyler. ilThe toughest part in sponsoring this pom- pon squad was trying to get all the girls together at once to practice. The girls had conflicting schedules so we usually practiced late at night? Tyler, a former Central High School pom-pon girl, commented. This years tryout was plagued with a small tum-out of interested girls. Only nineteen girls tried out, so sixteen girls represented the squad and three were chosen as alter- nates. The spirited Golden Grilfonettes Chose to perform separately from the MWSC band for the first year, since their performing season started late. The girls performed for the first time on Nov. 19 at the menls basketball opener. The girls plan to entertain during both the football and basketball seasons beginning next year.

Already they were thick within the Fine Arts Theater, but more kept coming. The smouldering faces were those of students, face ulty and community members. The common magnet which drew them all to campus with fire in their eyes? The possibility of losing Missouri Westernls Agriculture Department, the department that some say built the col- lege. In September of 1984, the Missouri Coor- dinating Board for Higher Education tCBHEy suggested Missouri Western State College Close its agricultural program and lease anw or sell its farm properties. In October of the same year, the first opposition was held against those suggestions, a public forum where students, faculty, politicians, farmers and others from the community gathered to tell the Board exactly what they thought of their idea. The speakers were varied in dress, status and style; cowboy boots and Aggies jackets stood on the stage just as suits and ties did. 32 l Adventures Some were nervous, while others seemed confident. Some used humor to get their point across, and some spoke in outrage. However, all were determined to sway the committee into leaving the Ag department as it was. Representative Mark Youngdahl pointed out, iTMissouri education is in disrepair, like a bridge,n and emphasized that Missouri West- ern was expanded from a two-year to a four- year college as a result of the need for higher education among St. Joseph citizens, and with the idea in mind that rural citizens could stay at home, work on their farms and still get the needed education. Chemistry Department Chairman Dr. Richard Schwartz expressed his concern since the Agriculture and Science depart ments are integratedeto drop the Ag depart- ment would drastically and negatively affect the Science department. liltis a pity we couldnit have spent this time improving edue cation instead of trying to save it from inten- tional destruction?

The City Council, feeling that the Ag departmentls ab- sence would cause serious economic reper- cussions to St. Joseph, passed a resolution supporting its continuation, and this was read to the crowd to cap off the evening. Though the forum may not have changed the minds of the Board members, it did give everyone a Chance to realize that Missouri Western offers a quality department that many people appreciate. The faces that marched into the forum also marched out, but this time pride showed in the eyes. They had fought one battle, and if need be they would fight more, together. by Shelly Ogi AGRICUULTRE mssmsi a wm'mni ABOVE: Many people are seen showing their support by plastering their vehicles' bumpers and tailgates with a Slogan commonly seen around campus.-Photo by R.

This year Missouri Westerns annual Par- entsi Day was changed to accomodate the growing number of students over 25 with families. This switch to Family Day allowed for both parents and children of students to join in the days events. As it turned out, there was something for everyone. A hot air balloon race began the day bright and early, and at the same time a live band started playing contemporary music. Boothes were set up outside the stadium by over 25 clubs and organizations, ranging from fortune telling to sponge-throwing, The Art Club painted hair and faces, and the MWSC Bookstore sold Clothing bearing the college name. A planetarium show was scheduled throughout the afternoon for the parents. Clowns and Worlds of Fun,s Sam Panda made appearances to the delight of the children. Before the game, an all-you-can-eat bar- becue was put on by the Agriculture Depart- ment and the thrilling bed race, sponsored by the Intramural Department, was won by the speedy Sigma T au Gammas. The feature event was the football game between the Griffons and Wayne State, but the loss did not detract from the success of the day.

Female whoops and hollars echoed through the gym as the four menls lightweight contestants made their way to the posing stage. The well-developed men posed Iirst as a group, turning in quarter turns, allowing the crowd and judges to view their muscles at various angles. They flexed their triceps, biceps, abdomens, chest, thighs and all other muscles that would flex, receiving tremen- dous feedback from the audience. Next, the men left the stage to prepare for their individual posing routines. In the wings of the gymnasium, contestants rubbed oil on their bodies to enhance muscle definition. Flexing to background music, contestants appeared on the stage individually so judges could scrutinize their muscles more in- tensely. 36 l Adventures After the lightweight performances, the heavyweight division, consisting of seven men, strolled into the arena. Following the same posing procedure as before, the heavyweights modeled as a group before flex- ing solo in their favorite positions. Two lone women braved the crowd as they displayed their muscles. Posing in the same positions as the men, the two contestants turned in quarter turns together then posed individually to music, receiving hearty yells from the audience. The crowd waited anxiously for the win- nerst names to be announced; three finalists in the menls division were called back onto the stage. Rocky Carter, Jeff Stanton and Whitney Freeman congratulated each other before posing again so the judges could make their final decision. As the crowd waited suspense- fully, the judges added up points and an- nounced Jeff Stanton as the third place win- ner. Second place went to Rocky Carter and first place, along with the $100 prize, was , m. awarded to Whitney Freeman. The three win- ners ended their show by posing once more.

The organizational clubs participated in a sack race and amused the crowd as they slipped and slid across the gymnasium floor. The Phi Sigs flew to a first place finish ahead of the MWSC Band-only by a small margin. The pyramid contest followed looking more like a free-for-all dog pile. The MWSC Band stacked up a first place pyramid, fol- lowed by the Aggies in second. A 20-foot-long spirit stick was awarded to the MWSC Band by the cheerleaders in ap- preciation of their faithful support. It was finally time to find out which candi- date would be crowned'the 1984 Homecom- ing Queen. The live finalists were Sherrie Alexander, Chemistry Club; Kristi Kiepe, Newman Club; Robin Miller, Independent; Angela Robinson, Dorm Council; and Lynn Swymeler, Student Art League. Students waited anxiously with their fin- gers crossed, but Hazell continuously stalled the announcement and created mounting tension, until the moment arrived and Kristi Kiepe was crowned Homecoming Queen by SGA president Jerry Enyeart. Lynn Swymeler was named Maid of Honor. Finally, students huddled together at the bonfire, where they paid their last respects to the Missouri-Southern Lions. A lion laid peacefully in a coffin, waiting to be cremated.

This year, the Lions of Missouri Southern tried to avenge last seasons 17-10 upset by the Griffons which shoved Southern out of second place in the national rankings. They were successful. Nearly 5,500 fans poured into Spratt Stadium on a chilly October afternoon to see the Gritfst Homecoming game. Clubs and organizations had set up signs and banners around the campus urging the Griffs to devas- tate the Lions. Several floats from the parade held that morning stood at one end of the field, and on the sidelines sat Queen Kristi Kiepe and her court. Missouri Southern took an early lead of 6-0, but SGA Presidentjerry Enyeart was optimis- tic as he stood next to the cheerleaders and chanted into a megaphone, tlt just doesntt matterV 46 t Adventures Western quickly marched into Lion territ- ory, and Eric Bruder scored a Iield goal. Soon after, Craig Hagel ran a touchdown and Bruder kicked the extra point to make the score 10-6. The Griffs held their lead to the end of the second quarter. At halftime, the spectators were enter- tained by Leeis Summits marching band and its corps of high-kicking girls. Afterwards, the winning floats were announced, and the Ag Clubis float took a victory tour around the field. In the second half of the game, the score see-sawed and the Griffon lead of 17-9 was soon diminished. Though they fought hard, the Griffon defense could not stop the slow but steady onslaught by the Lions. Southern pushed the ball across the goal line several more tithes, leaving the score at 31-27 with 2:05 left in the game. Kevin Stephens led a 73-yard drive, highlighted by three pass plays to Bruder, Wally Ray and Keith Hoskins. The crowd went wild with frenzy; the cheerlead- a ers cheered the offense; and Enyeart slammed a stuffed toy lion against the ground, ripped the head off and wore its skin on his heade Daniel Boone style. With 57 seconds left, the ball was on the 3-yard line. Mark Hartman gained a yard but could go no farther when the same play was tried again. With the clock winding down and no time-outs left, the Griffons had trouble lining up and were twice penalized for false starts, causing the crowd to yell Obscenities at the referees. Starting from the 12-yard line with 13 seconds left and counting down, Stephens was sacked and the game ended.

After setting the mood by a comical slide presentation and practical jokes, Deluca pro- ceeded to the serious part of the showahyp- notism. He took over 15 volunteers from the audience and had them come on stage. When all were seated, Deluca began talking to them, and within minutes their eyes were closed and heads drooped. They were then under Delucais power, and the audience was in for a night of entertainment. One of the first things Deluca had them do was go fishing on a nice, warm beach. They then caught a fish and began reeling it in. But wait, lithe fish is pulling you in? Deluca suggested, and the fishermen braced theme selves and continued reeling. Unfortunately, the fish got off the hookatqo bad the volun- teers did not. Deluca was relentless and con- tinued to play with his subjects, while the audience was laughing at everything the vol- unteers did. After all the hard work that went into trying to catch a fish, Deluca told the hypnotizees they were getting hotter and hotter. ilYoulre getting warmer and warmer...90 degrees...91 degrees...92 degrees...103 degrees.n This was too much as the volunteers unbuttoned their shirts, fanned themselves and wiped imagi- nary sweat off their foreheads.

With the. temperature back to normal, it was time to further embarrass the volun- teery-that is if they knew what was taking place. Deluca warned them that when he cleared his throat, the guys zippers would be wide open and the ladies bras would come unstrapped. With their eyes open, Dev luca asked them if any felt hypnotized. None did, but on clearing his throat, he knew the truth. Before the night was over, the volunteers regressed to five-year-olds, saw the audience naked then became naked themselves, while one hypnotized woman was convinced she flew in from the Milky Way.

Dubbed a great success by those involved, the play may well have paved the way for other musical comedies in the future. by Debra Logan ABOVE: Gymnasia fJackie Beechned performs her wiles as a Iove-struck Pseudolus lVic Phillipson, seatedj is per- suaded to purchase her by Marcus Lycus fRuss Hagenlr- Photo by D.

Madrigal F east Highlights W Holiday Season he annual Madrigal Christmas Feast I was held with all its regal splendor on the nights of Nov. 30 and Dec. 1 in the Nelle Blum Student Union. Students, teachers and community mem- bers returned back in time to remember the romance and revelry 0f the Renaissance era. The hall was lavishly decorated for the event, and elaborately'costumed men and women greeted the guests as they arrived. Queen Janet Murphy and ther court were escorted to the royal table along with the Renaissance musicians. The wassail bowl was lifted, and the feast was blessed with the singing of the Doxology. Guests were serenaded throughout the evening by balladeers singing Old English songs. iiLife is a Dream,n a short drama, was presented. The course menu included wassail, oxtail soup, salad, prime rib or beef, roasted potatoes, parmesan tomatoes, fruits and cheeses, bread and butter and cherries jubilee. The Madrigal Feast was originated at the college by the Missouri Western Womenis organization with the help of professor Dr. Warren Chelline and former college presi- dent Dr. Marvin Looney. The feast has evolved into a big social event that traditionally falls in the holiday season. , The MWSC music department hosted the activities, with Frank Thomas serving as direc- tor and coordinator of the event. Others help- ing with the feast were Sharon Groh, decora- tions; Rick Leah, theater; Walter Drannan, evergreens; and Gary Butchart, candelabra. The members of the Community College Group Recorder Ensemble attended the af- fair. Those members included Karen Logbeck, director, Nadine Lueker, Sam Lucas, Grace Morris, Amy Ellerbrake, Melanie Blass, Sharon OiLeary and Leayn Losh. Jerry Anderson was featured playing the harpsichord and Dr. Mike Mathews on the trombone. Members of the Renaissance singers were Theresa Bain and Kim Kirkendall, Cameron; Debra Thorton and Twyla Hanks, Hamilton; Leslie Heinz and Kip McFadden, Savannah; Mark Lechner, Syracuse, Neb.; Tammy Fisher, Todd Poretta, Bob Post and Craig Ward of Maysville; Matt Fry, Gallatin; and Rhonda Swafford, Debbie Jones, Tracey Turner, Thom Furlong and Jon Corkins of St. Joseph.

Well, if He happened to be looking in the direction of MWSC, this is what He might see during a typical week. Every morning, commuter students de- scend upon the campus like vultures in search of prey. The ultimate prey for them is an empty parking place near to the buildings in which they have their first classes. Circling the lots with the choicest locations, these predators watch attentively with their beady eyes for a departing comrade and at the right moment they let out a loud screech and move in for the kill. Some are not so fortunate. They must look in places farther away, such as the dorm lots, the lot by Spratt Stadium or the overflow lot. In these areas there is an abundant supply of space for parking; however, students tend to stay away from them because of the distances they would have to walk or run to reach class on time. ill hate parking on the hill? said senior Carl McDowell, referring to the overflow lot. McDowell noted that the grassy area next to Mitchell Avenue would be a good place to construct a parking lot. It would benefit stu- dents with classes in the Administration and the SSIC Buildings. According to Hervey MeGaugh, chief of security, many suggestions have been made concerning parking problems, and he has ag- reed with several. However, funds have not been made available to the college so that they may proceed with an improvement pro- ject. Some of the suggestions presented include changing times that classes are offered on Monday, Wednesday and Friday; expanding RIGHT: A MWSC student searches the Fine Arts parking lot for an open spaceaPhoto by R.

WI'here would be a lot more accidents with students opening doors and pulling out into traffic. It just wouldnit be safe? Another idea that has been mentioned is just to do away with all reserved parking places except those for the handicapped and have a first-come, firstaserved basis. MCGaugh said that he wouldnlt be bothered by such an idea, but the faculty would be very un- happy. liThe instructors here feel that they have paid their dues and now deserve a break,u said MCGaugh. They were once students and had to walk too; now they feel they have earned the privilege of parking in a reserved space? McGaugh says he called other colleges and universities to lind out their parking situa- tions. He found that most of them Charge students to park a car on campus and that many require a registration fee for all cars. MWSC charges nothing. In a time when everything is skyrocketing in price, MWSC students are getting a real bargain even though it might not be first class.

He sounded like a door-to-door salesman selling his wares as he pushed for us to sign up for his new Class. IlAnd now, folks, you too can discover all those little parasites that in- fect human bodies all over the world? tfor a limited time onlyy. ilWhy not? I thought. Tm beginning to like this Biology stuff any- way. On the first day of class I walked into a full classroom of almost 30 people. Wow, I thought this was gonna be a small class? I thought. Only ten sign-ups were needed for Ashley to go ahead and teach the class. Ashley was also surprised but pleased, as he said jokingly, llThere are almost 30 of you in here now, but after I show you this slide presentation as an overview of the class, I suspect I may be signing the drop slips of some of you with weaker stomachs. Dr. Ashley pushed for the class to be offered for several reasons. liAs a parasitologist, I am very excited about teaching a class concern- ing my specialty,n he stated. III also feel the need for a special topics class for the Biology non-major.This college has an excellent mechanism for allowing faculty members to come up with a special topics course and experiment With it by offering it for a semes- ter to see what the student response is? Ashley got the idea for a human diseases class when he taught at the University of New Hampshire. A fellow faculty member taught a class titled, IMan, Nature and Disease, and I taught a similar class during the summer? he explained. Ashley uses as teaching material informa- tion from current journals and The Center Iwas sitting in Dr. Ashleyis Biology 101 RIGHT: Showing the stages of malaria is Dr. David Ashley.-Photo by M4 Brunner 62 I Adventures for Disease Control in Atlanta, Georgia, as well as independent studies done by the MWSC Biology department. However, for the most part, the slides and research he uses are his own. The course emphasized background infor- mation on several diseases, their importance historically and culturally, distribution worldwide, symptoms, identification, viru- lence, specificity and mortality rate. The student evaluations completed at the end of the semester will have a major effect on whether or not Ashleyis disease Class Will be offered again. Although the class was of- fered with the Biology non-major in mind, all but a few students were majors, including 1 5 nursing students. However, Ashley hopes that will change if the class is offered again. On the last day of class, Ashley faced us, the class, looking tired but happy. iiWell, I must say live never had a class with a person- ality quite like yours? he confided. With a class as small as ours comes a lot of teacherlstudent interaction, which I found as an asset in a situation such as this.

Tilt is just one form of entertainment that we offer to the students? CAB chairperson Brenda Preston said. CAB offered movies on the average of one film every three weeks throughout the year, Preston said. The organization also provided free popcorn and 25-cent soft drinks to those in attendance. The student turnout for these movies Varied greatly. TTFor a family movie like jungle Bookz we usually averaged 70 to 80 people.

The movies may be free to the students, aeFree movieV These two words but a film definitely does not come cheaply for CAB. A standing committee made up of CAB members decide what movies are to be shown and attempt to purchase them. Ac- cording to Preston, the price of a film can range between $200 and $800, depending on the lilst popularity. Box office smashes such as TiFootlooseT and iTBachelor Party nor- mally carry a higher price tag. Cab attempts to show a variety of films to suit everyoneis tastes. For instance, this year featured family-oriented films such as TtWilly Wonkaii and Tjungle Book, and classics such as tGone with the Wind? as well as the re- cently popular movies. CAB also sponsored a Dirty Harry Festival which was a double feature consisting of TTDirty Harryii and TTThe Enforcer?

But instead of catching the first flight to Nevada, I grabbed my coat and headed out to Las Vegas Night at Missouri Western. I knew everything I needed would be there.

The shooter had just rolled snake eyes, and, feeling the odds were in my favor that she would not roll it again, I bet against her. She cupped the dice and slammed them against the back of the table. When the dice came to a stop I noticed two, eyes looking at me. She had made her numberal lost. I smiled and looked down at the cash re- maining in my hand.

A Sweethearts Dream Come True sweetheart by definition can be someone with whom one is in love and by whom one is loved or someone who is a darling. But most important, it is someone who is a very agreeable person. These qualities portray MWSCS picture perfect sweetheart queen, T iffany Darby, who expresses her winning challenge as being a dream come true? Born and raised in Kansas City, Tiffany attended high school on a quiet note. She was not popular during her high-time years, and she spent most of her days wondering what it would be like if she was popular. III always dreamed of being crowned homecom- ing or some other type of queen, but I knew I was too shy to participate? But the 21-year-old junior overcame her shyness upon arrival to Missouri Western, on her way to becoming an all-around 68 I Adventures sweetheart. During her past three college years, she has worked in the cafeteria, served as a resident assistant and a house resident and she currently is the president of the Dorm Council. Tiffanys roommate encouraged her to vie for Sweetheart Queen in which she ran as an independent candidate. uI ran for Homecom- ing Queen in 1983, and I didnit even make it to the finals. I was really nervous about running this time, fearing I wasnit going to make it to the finals. After I appeared as one of the top five, I knew my popularity finally paid off. I Tiffanyls present position as president of the Dorm Council helps her meet people and gives her the chance at sprucing up college life for the dorm students. II help decide on movies, dances and other extracurricular activities. I have taught my- self to be friendly to everyone, and I really enjoy that. Tiffany, a marketing major, plans to work for an international airline dealing with adver- tising and promotions after graduation. Her next dream is to move to the east coast, perhaps Florida, where her parents live. II was so excited after winning that I went back to my dorm and called my parents. They were so proud of me.n The only part of the definition left to ex- plain is Iisomeone with whom one is in love and by whom one is loved?

The Golden Griffons, with a 6-17 record, hosted the Washburn Ichabods, ranked sec- ond in the NAIA Division I national basketball poll with a 22-3 record. The Griffs matched the powerful Ichabods basket for basket and took Washburn into overtime tied at 61. But in the end, Cupidis arrow stung Western with a familiar dose of last-second defeat, 73-72, before Sweetheart Queen Tiffany Darby and an estimated crowd of 1400. 70 4 Adventures The two teams played to a 8-8 deadlock until Griffon guard Arthur Cooks hit a 1 5-foot jumper to give Western 21 10-8 lead at the 12:35 mark. But the Griffons did not score again until Cooks scored with 7:5 1 remaining in the half. By that time, however, Washburn had scored three times and held a 14-12 advantage. The Ichabods maintained their lead and Western trailed 27-24 at halftime. At intermission, the crowd and five queen candidates anxiously awaited the results of the 1985 Sweetheart Queen balloting. Following the Griffettes performance to the song 11Neutron DanceiT by the Pointer Sweetheart Day urns Sour Sisters, each candidate was escorted to the center of the arena floor Where SGA president Jerry Enyeart waited to crown the winner. The candidates were Jane Mooreman, Al- chemist Club; Pam Feurt, Sigma Tau Gamma; Tiffany Darby, Independent; Monique Duvall, Sigma Kappa; and Michelle Parmenter, Alpha Psi Omega. Enyeart first presented roses to runners-up Duvall, Mooreman and Parmenter, then to Maid of Honor Pam Feurt. Tiffany Darby was crowned and received a hug from Enyeart, and was then presented with a bouquet of roses by Sweetheart Com- mittee chairperson Pam Limle. When play resumed in the second half, it was Cooks who kept Western in the game by scoring 21 of his game-high 27 points. The Griffs and Ichabods played Virtually even basketball throughout the second half. But Washburn had a 61-59 lead and the ball with only 36 seconds remaining in regulation. However, Cooks stole the ball at mid-court and set up the GriffonsT offense. Western worked the ball in to forward Roger Bol- dridge who was fouled on the play. Boldridge stepped to the line and calmly sank both ends of a one-and-one which sent the game into overtime. Missouri Western took an early 64-61 lead when Cooks hit a jumper and Doniel Gam- brell added a free throw. But Washburn came battling back and led, 71-68, with just over a minute left. Cooks'brought the Griffons to Within one point of Washburn with a jumper and later gave them the lead, 72-71, on a lay-up with nine seconds remaining. The Ichabods quickly brought the ball up court and forced a shot from the top of the key. The shot bounded off the rim and into the hands of Washburnts Tom Meier, who tipped the ball in as the buzzer sounded to give the Ichabods the victory. The Lady Griffons, on the other hand, picked up an easy 89-73 win over Washburn, with Judy Amos scoring 26 points. Following the womenis game, Western vol- leyball player Lynn Umbach was presented a plaque in recognition of being selected as a first-tearn All-American by both the NAIA and the College Volleyball Coaches Association. by Scott Bachman tEFT: After being crown'ed 1985 Sweetheart Queen dur- mg the basketball game, Tiffany Darby is escorted off the court by her father.4Photo by P.

The event featured comedian Alex Cole, who has appeared on Star Search, and has opened for well-known musical acts such as The Tubes, Manhattan Transfer, Talking Heads and Laura Brannigan. Also performing and providing plenty of toe-tapping, hand- clapping and knee-slapping was a North Carolina duo called Hot Shandy. Cole was welcomed by a rather small but enthusiastic crowd that seemed to dare the young comedian to make them laugh, and laugh they did, as Cole kept coming at the audience with his jokes, songs, impersona. tions and stories about life. Upon announcing a long-awaited Christ. mas album that had been released by Bob Dylan, Cole put the crowd into stitches with a couple of the songs. He sang in a raspy, nasal voice that sounded almost exactly like that of the famous folk singer of the sixties. The multi-talented comedian also amused the students with a song of his own. While playing a guitar, Cole sang in a style that re- sembled George Thorogood, a song called lTve been Everywhere? which told of his many experiences in traveling. Cole joked about his childhood and some of the things he did to his younger brother, then blessed and iihealcdi, a student sitting near the back during one of his trips into the audience. After an hour of non-stop entertainment Cole disappeared behind the curtains anda couple of good oll boys who called them- selves Hot Shandy hit the stage. With a guitar and a mandolin they began to play what they referred to as Folk and Roll, a cross between folk and rock and roll music. The twosome from the Appalachian Moun- tains proceeded to play some fast-paced bluegrass tunes, then slowed it down with ballads from the sixties, including a John' Prine song called iiParadise. The crowd even got to participate in the show as they were invited to clap, stomp and sing along if they knew the words. During 1 Roger Miller song called llKing of the Road, the crowd sang in unison to the famed chorus line, iiI aint got no cigarettesf much to the delight of the two players. Though a few people left during the waning moments of the jam session, it appeared that most of the crowd enjoyed the change of pace that Hot Shandy offered in their music, and left believing it is possible to have a good time without spending much money. by Eric Trainer LEFT: Hot Shandy performs for the MWSC crowd during Comedy Night.

Picture a charming home in the south. Into this peaceful scene put the prosperous, de- spotic Hubbard family: Ben, possessive and scheming; Oscar, cruel and arrogant; Benis dupe, Leo, weak and unprincipaled; Regina, wickedly clever, each trying to outwit the others. In contrast, meet lonely, intimidated Bir- die, whom Oscar wed for her fatheris cotton fields; wistful Alexandra, Reginais daughter; and Horace, ailing husband of Regina, be- tween whom a breach has existed for years. The conflict in these characters lives has been caused by Benis ambition to erect a cotton mill. The brothers lack $75,000 to cover the cost of the venture. This, they hope, will come from Horace, who has been in a hospital With a heart ailment. Horace is beset by his relatives the first hour of his homecoming, but refuses to com- mit himself. Desperate, Leo and his father, Oscar, plan for Leo to take $80,000 worth of bonds from Horaceis deposit box. However, knowing he is to be short-lived, Horace has his box brought to him. Discover- ing the theft, he informs his Wife that he has willed the bonds to her. He declares he will say nothing about the theft, calling it loan. Cruelly, Regina recalls their unhappy mar- riage, causing Horace to be stricken with a severe attack. Regina refuses to get his medicine upstairs, hoping that the effort of climbing may prove fatal. Horace collapses. Regina then attempts to blackmail her brothers into giving her 75 percent of the business instead of the planned 5316 percent, threatening to reveal the theft. However, a crafty Ben holds the trump card With his last remark, tiWhat was a man in a Wheelchair doing on the staircase?

The sun rose on several bleary-eyed students, trudging to their cars with an armful of books and a mind full of information they all hoped they could retain at least as long as the tests lasted. These students, who wished to study beyond the libraryls extended hours, chose to cram at Perkins Restaurant. The serious studying began only after 10 p.m., when families with crying kids and loud laughing groups had already gone home to bed. Though most tables were filled, noise levels were at a minimum. Students pored over books, notes and old tests. Coffee pots and cups were out in full force, ammunition with which to battle the early morning hours. As the jam session progressed, the crowds thinned out, leaving only the serious studiers scattered about, by themselves or in groups of threels and fourls. Some students having a class together met at the restaurant and quiz- zed each other, while others preferred to re- view alone. During the fall semester, a few students began studying at the restaurant, giving Per- kinsl manager an idea. During the fall finals week, Perkins offered to studying MWSC stu- dents free coffee or 20 percent off their total Check. liWe just thought it would be a nice gesture on the part of the community? said Perkinsl manager. Over spring finals week, the offer was made again as more and more students used the restaurant as a haven from the noise of the television, the distraction of siblings or room- y mates, the temptation of the telephone and j the ever-present beckoning of the bed to give Up studying early and go to sleep. Latevarriv- ing students had to wait for tables to clear. Most students used Perkins as a study hall l 0013' during finals week, but a few became filmiliar faces to the waitresses as they made regular appearances during the semester.

Despite the gloomy weather outside, the graduates inside were all smiles as they anticipated their col- lege days coming to an end. After Jerry Enyeart, President of the Stu- dent Government Association, gave the invo- cation, breakfast was served. The meal con- sisted of ham, scrambled eggs, hash browns, biscuits, orange juice and coffee. Following the breakfast, MWSC President Janet Murphy presented the graduating class. Next, Jill Miller, Viee-President of the Alumni Association, introduced the guest speaker, Robert Slater. Slater serves as vice-president of public affairs for the St. Joseph Light and Power Company. Even though he was suffering from laryn- gitis, Slater told the graduates to enjoy life and urged them to strive for excellence. He also mentioned three ingredients that are im- portant in lifeaa sense of humor, a sense of faith and a willingness to get involved. Americans are believed to have lost their sense of humor and the only way to get it back is llif Japan starts exporting it? If any crisis exists, faith in God will help solve the problems. Slater told the class also that they ucanlt live in isolation? and they should get involved in their community, wherever it may be. Slater, in the closing moment of his speech, displayed his own sense of humor as he re- lated to the audience a story about two chil- dren on Christmas. One boy was a true op- timist, the other a pessimist. To cure this, the Parents decided to give a bike to the pessimist and manure to the optimist.

The parents then turned around to see how their plan had affected the other child and were startled to see the other boy in such a good mood. When asked why he was in such a good mood for only getting manure, the boy replied that Santa had left a pony but it had gotten away.

They listened with much content while the commencement address was delivered by Dr. Kenneth Blanchard, professor of leadership and organizational behavior at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst.

Besides hard work, I believe there are three things to keep in mind? Blanchardis first concept was goal setting. Blanchard told the class how to decide what their goal in life is, how to follow that goal and how to see themselves as Clearly as pos- sible. He quoted his wife who once said, uA goal is a dream with a deadline? He added that since everything in life begins with a dream, one should not limit oneself with RIGHT: Graduates bow their heads in silence as Margaret Hegeman delivers the benedictionr-Photo by R.

This is how people learn and achieve. Pat yourself on the back while you head in the right direction until you achieve your goal? The third concept Blanchard defined was to accept and administer the iione-minute re- primand? iiGive yourself negative feedback when you donit do something right.

Marek Joustd 93 Griffons Prove Competitive During Rebuilding Season , t the beginning of the season, head A coach Skip Shear said he was unsure of what to expect from his team, but he hoped they would be competitive by the end of the year. After all, what can a coach say when he loses three starters like Larry Ingram, Amos Pearcill and Frank Wheeler from a team that went 21-10 and made an appearance in the National NAIA Tournament last season? The young and inexperienced Griffs rallied around the leadership of returning starters Arthur Cooks, Maurice Collins and Senior Roger Boldridge to compile a 10-18 mark, with only a two-point loss at the hands of Pittsburg State keeping them from making the District 16 Playoffs. The Griffons started the season with a five- game losing streak during which opponents took advantage of the youthfulness of the Western squad, causing them to make numer- ous costly mistakes. In the first three games, Western suffered close defeats, first to Southwest Baptist, 82- 77, then to Rockhurst, who stalled and came away with a 32-31 nail-biter. Looking to take out their frustrations, the Griffs came out shooting as they hosted Northwest Missouri State. However, in the second half the West- ern attack ran out of ammunition as the Bear- cats captured a 71-67 victory. Following road losses to Rockhurst and Wayne State which left them at 0-5, the Grif- fons came home and found some comfort as they whipped Benedictine 76-55 for their first win of the year. After tasting victory, the Griffs got a chance to tangle with the Texas Longhorns, an NCAA Division I team. Texas was too much for the Griffons as they romped to a 83-66 win. Western took two out of three at the Will- iam Jewell Tournament and then dropped three of their next four games, all against CSIC foes. A close loss to Fort Hays and consecutive wins over Kearney State and T arkio brought hopes up, but not for long, as Western hit the skids and lost six straight, making playoff Chances look slim. The last loss in the streak was a 73-72 over- time defeat at the hands of highly-rated Washburn, but it seemed to give the players a newly found confidence. With five games left, the Griffs had to win all of them to get a berth in the playolfs. Led by the hot shooting of Arthur Cooks, Western won four in a row and needed only a victory against Pittsburg State to turn the trick. But it was not to be as the Gorillas, who trailed for most of the game; got a bucket with three seconds left to shatter the chance of playoff action. tilts not the season we would liked to have had, but it takes time to develop the skills of the new, younger players we had, and to teach them what it takes to be college basketball playersf said Shear. tiWith the nucleus we have coming back and the experience they RIGHT: Shooting from the outside, Jim Copley lSOJ tries for two points.-Photo by J.

Coach Rhesa Sumrell was not blessed with her most talented team, but the Lady Griffons compensated for that in other areas. ttTheytve shown a lot more guts than teams with more talent? Sumrell said. rSometimes youll find that your most talented teams arentt your most productive. But the 1984 Lady Griffs were, indeed, productive. They opened the season with five consecutive victories and later reeled off 18 more wins in a row. After sputtering somewhat in the latter stages of the season, the Lady Griffons picked up the intensity as the District 16 Tourna- ment rolled around. Going into the championship match, the Lady Griffs were to face a senior-oriented Missouri Southern squad. The two teams had 102 tJousts met three times previously with the Lady Lions coming out on top in two of those contests. Missouri Western dropped the first game, but came back behind senior hitter Mendy Chandler to upset Southern and claim the championship title. ttMendy had a problem with her knee early in the season that kept her from concentrat- ing, she said. tBut in the districts she just said the heck with it and went out and played? Sumrell said the win over Southern gave the Lady Griffons ua lot of contidencet head- ing into their fourth straight NAIA national volleyball tournament to be held in front of a home-town crowd at Missouri Western. The team advanced to the Iinal eight where they lost a hard-fought match to the eventual champion, University of Hawaii-Hilo and ended up finishing in a tie for flfth place. I was so pleased with the way the team handled tplaying in front of the home-town Determination's the Key crowdy Sumrell said. ttThey were so thrilled at the support they got. It did more for our team to know that people would come to watch them play.u Individually, junior setter Lynn Umbach distinguished herself as one of the outstand- ing volleyball players in the country. She Was selected as a Iirst-team All-American by both the NAIA and the College Volleyball Coaches Association tCVCAy. Another junior, LeAnn Martens, also en- joyed an outstanding year for the Lady Griffs. She set school records in both block points and attack points. Both Umbach and Martens will return next year to give Sumrell a good nucleus to build yet another national volleyball power. tTm really looking forward to next year. Barring unforeseen circumstances, I person- ally think well be a little stronger than last year, Sumrell said. by Scott Bachman OPPOSITE PAGE: Du Lady Griffs Jill Collins eye on the ball.-Pho ;,wt 7 777v , . 1 3 ML OPPOSITE PAGE: During the NAIA national tournament, l l h Lady Griffs Jill Collins Heft; and LeAnn Martens keep their 13 eye on the ball.-Photo by P.

The Lady Griffons set their sights on win- ning the Central States Intercollegiate Confer- ence Championship and hoped to Challenge Missouri Southern and Missouri-Kansas City for the District 16 title. 3 Western did just that. They ended the con- ference season tied for the CSIC title, but bowed out of the District 1 6 tournament with a 67-49 loss to Southern, ending their season with a 22-8 record. nThe team did a good job of keeping their goals in mind, and not letting anything inter- fere with them? Coach Debbie Bumpus said. WI'hey never lost concentration? But concentration was not the only key to the Lady Griffsi success. The play of All-Amer- , icans Cheri Kempf and Judy Amos provided Missouri Western with the best one-two punch in the conference. Kempf, NAIA third team All-American and CSIC Playet-of-the-Year for the second season in a row, led the conference in scoring 00.4 points per game; and was second in both rebounding and free throw percentage. She also became the all-time leading scorer in Missouri Western history with 1473 accumu- lated points. tisheis the best offensive playrer weive ever had here at Missouri Western. Sheis explo- sive? Bumpus said of Kempf. iiHer success and the success of the team Coincided? Amos, a SiX-fOOt junior, was selected as a NAIA Academic All-American, and led the na- tion in free throw percentage 6.8641 She also led the CSIC in rebounding and was second in scoring with 17.1 points a game. RIGHT: JudyAmos goes up for a shot while being double teamed by Fort Hays-Photo by R. Duncan 106 hTousts Kempf, Amos and Co. suffered an 83-66 setback to rival UMKC in the season opener, but came back to win nine straight games. Two reasons for that strength was the in- side play of sophomore center Lori Flaherty and the leadership of senior point guard Deena Murphy. Flaherty pulled down 6.2 rebounds a game and shot over 50 percent from the floor this season to lead the Lady Griffs. But Bumpus said her attitude may have helped the team even more. ttShe enjoyed every minute on the floor,n Bumpus said. iisheis very intense and willing to learn, and her intensity helped spark the entire team? The most improved area for Western over the year was at the point guard position where Murphy took over, Bumpus said. Mur- phy dished out 133 assists on the year, but more importantly set the tempo of the game, and stabilized the oIfense. 1iDeena did an excellent job for us this yearf Bumpus praised. tiShe was consistent and made the team go. She was the best guard in the conference as far as running the team goes? Despite losing Kempf and Murphy, Bumpus is already looking forward to the 1985-86 season. uThere is never really a year when you go out satisfied? she said. 11We will have to fill the scoring and leadership positions, but we have a good group coming back.

Leading the way is top seeded singles player Cindy Knorr. After finishing with a 10-7 record last year, Knorr enters into her senior season as one of the top 50 players in the NAIA, according to a pre-season poll. She is I the first player from MWSC to ever be ranked. Senior Trish Mercier holds down the number two spot and is hoping for good re- sults following rehabilitation of a knee injury i that forced her and Knorr to withdraw from Q the district tournament last season. Also returning are senior Lori Sharp and sophomore Pam Feurt who had 9-7 and 8-8 records respectively last year. According to head coach Debbie Bumpus, Feurt is the most improved player over last year. iiShe is more consistent this year and strongerf said Bum- pus. uBecause of that, she is more confident?

So far this season, the weather has been the toughest opponent. Rain and cold wea- ther have forced postponement or cancella- tion of some of the games, limiting playing time and causing slow progress among players, something only games can help. Bumpus is pleased so far with her team. iiThey are a great deal better and are much stronger than last year? she said. According to Bumpus, one of the teams strengths is their aggressiveness. iiEven though we are aggressive, we lack overall quicknessf noted Bumpus. iiThafs , what we had to work on in the off season? i She mentioned the efforts of Greg Nelson and Q Karen Coupe in helping to condition and im- prove quickness 0n the tea'gn.

For the T Missouri Western baseball team in 1985, there was nothing like playing in its home park, Phil Welch Stadium. The Griffons put together a 16-2 record while playing their home turf, but a dismal 1 3-30 record on the road baffled the Griffon,s mentor. I cant explain it, Coach Doug Minnis said of his teams superior home play. llBut the home atmosphere is always easier to play in, with the home crowd, field and sleeping in your own bed? . Inconsistency was the Griffonls biggest bar- rier during their up-and-down season, some- thing Minnis did not foresee early in the sea- son. llIn January, I thought we could have gone further than welve ever gone? Minnis said. llOur drill work inside went very well, and we got a lot accomplished. llBut once we got outside, one thing after another went wrong? he said. llNot that it was a bad season, but it could have been better. Following Westernls southern trip over spring break, its record stood at 9-20. How- ever, the Griffons then won 13 of their next 16 games and were winners of five in a row before the District 16 tournament in Joplin, Mo. For the second consecutive year, however, Western dropped its opening round game and was forced to tight its way through the losers bracket. The Griffs won two games before losing the championship to Missouri South- ern, 10-2. llYou really have to win that first game in districts just to get yourself together. One pitch or one error can cost you the whole season? Minnis said. Jay Essington, David Lau, Doug Neyens and Rick Shingleton were all selected to the all- district squad. 1 12 H'ousts Essington led the Griffs in four offensive categories including a team-leading .366 bat- ting average. Lau, the Griffon catcher, broke Mike Mus- serls 1982 single-season home run record when he hit his twelfth round-tripper late in the season. He also led the team with 44 runs batted in. Neyens put together a 6-4 record with a 4.19 earned run average as a pitcher, and hit 336 as a designated hitter. Right fielder Rick Shingleton hit .316 with five homers and 38 RBIs. Ace relief pitcher Eric Snider, who along with Lau was named to the all-CSIC first team, led the pitching staff with a 6-3 record and a 2.23 ERA while recording six saves. He also broke his own school record with 27 appear- ances. But perhaps the most consistent and solid performer was second baseman Brad Hag- gard, who played in each of Westernls 61 games. uHe was the most improved and most inspi- rational player we had, Minnis said of Hag- gard. by Scott Bachman BELOW: Paul Huckaby swings at a pitch but fails to make contact-Photo by S.

Despite that disappoint- ment, the Lady Griffons set their best season record with a 27-14 mark. The Lady Griffs combined a solid core of seniors with a new crop of freshmen. Shortstop Ginger Craven, a freshman, tied the record for most triples hit in one season with seven. Freshman Rita Rice also saw some play- ing time toward the end of the season when LeAnn Martens was moved from lirst base to left field. Rice was a solid defensive player and was also dependable at the plate. The Lady Griffons survived the ,85 season with only two pitchers. Marney Jones and Jeannine Christowski combined to pitch the Lady Griffons to their record-setting mark Jones, a senior, set and tied five school re- cords while compiling a 15-8 record and a .79 ERA. Christowski t 12-6; who also played third base, was named to the All-CSIC first team. Christowski and Jones were also two of the four Lady Griffons who were named to the All-District team. This years team relied heavily on defense. Second baseman, senior Deena Murphy, was named to the NAIA All-American and All-CSIC first teams for the second year in a row. She finished the season with a .331 average and led the team in runs scored, walks and stolen bases. Senior center fielder Kim Palmer led the team in batting with a .352 average and was also named to the NAIA All-American first team. Palmer was also named Academic All-American for the second year in a row. Senior LeAnn Martens and sophomore Lori Flaherty were both named to the All-CSIC honorable mention squad. Though the beginning of the year started out uncertainly, the season progressed with the team coming together to play consistent ball. The Lady Griffons won the Missouri Western Invitational Softball Tournament and took second in the Conference for the highest finish ever. by Carol Marek LEFT: Shortstop Ginger Craven grimaces as she slides safely into home.-Photo by C.

Winners in 3 tudents who came looking for competition, entertainment and a chance to escape from the same old, dull routine, probably found the All-Nighter to be just what the doctor ordered. Sponsored by the intramural department, the All-Nighter featured unique games and events that occurred on an hourly basis from 9 p.m. until 3 am, with prizes donated by local merchants given to the winners. Blind volleyball and free-throw shooting headed the list of zany contests on the agenda. iiBlind volleyball was the funniest part7 said Deb Stewart, commenting on the activities of the evening. . Some of the other activities offered wer dancing, movies, an arcade run by the Fellow- ship of Christian Athletes, a slam dunk com- petition, a racquetball tournament and Trivial Pursuit. A game that was not even on the agenda 120 tJousts was started by some rather enthusiastic stu- dents. Hackje Sack, a game which requires players to keep a miniature bean bag in the air, passing it only with feet and knees to opponents, seemed to be popular even though it was not a planned event. According to Faye Burchard, director of intramural activities, the idea of the All- Nighter is to get people to come out and play and do something different for a change. tiThis is just good, old-fashioned play, said Burchard. iiThere is something for everyone? she added. Burchard said she was not alone in her efforts regarding the All-Nighter. Intramural managers and leisure management majors were on hand to help keep everyone straight on how to play the new games, and to pass out the prizes. Prizes awarded to contest winners in- cluded free dinners, skating passes, movie the arcade received tickets that could be cashed in for prizes also. According to Burchard, enthusiasm and participation were very good. WI'hey came ready to play? she said of the crowd of stu- dents. iiPeople seemed involved and everyone had something to do? All told, the All-nighter proved to a couple I hundred of students that it is possible these days to have fun without spending a lot of ' money. by Eric Trainer BELOW: With words of encouragement from LeAnn Mar- tens irighti, freshman Scott Murphy tries to win another prize at the ring toss booth during the AIl-Nighter.- Photo by C.

Intramural Program Allows Athletes to Relax and Enjoy erhaps the purest form of all athletics is the intramural program. There are no point-shaving scandals, recruiting violations, sky-rocketing salaries or particip- ants splitting their time between the arena and the nearest drug rehabilitation center. Oh, there are some rivalries and fierce com- petitors, but for the most part these athletes are involved just to have fun. Intramurals provide over 30 percent of the students and faculty with the opportunity to relax and socialize. nIt tthe intramural programl gives students the opportunity to participate and play in 36 different activities and to establish friendships? said Faye Burchard, director of Missouri Westernis intramural program. Students and faculty took part in sports ranging from flag football to faculty golf and pillow polo in the fall semester. Bob Berger, Bob Hines, Bob Burchard and Craig Mosher were the winners in faculty golf, while the team Col-Nel-Wheel was the champion of the co-ed pillow polo competition. But the most dominant team in the fall was the Weekend Warriors. The Warriors won both the menis flag football and soccer leagues. The BB Bombers won the womenis flag football championship. During the spring semester, 37 menis teams and eight womenis teams joined the basket- ball leagues. The Hoyas won the menls lower I ntramurals a division, theISilver Bullets took the middle diVision, and the Ghostbusters won the cham- pionship in the upper division. The Boomers won the womenls title. T wo-on-two basketball was also offered. Patty Howard and Jeff Huff won the CO-ed competition, Jual Stephenson and Eric Hos- kins took the menls division, and the team of Kristi Kiepe and Tracey Hinton topped the womenls field. Burchard was pleased with the turnout of students this year, but she always encourages more to become involved. by Scott Bachman Joustst 121 he 1985 Missouri Western golf team had a definite St. Joseph flavor, as all live varsity golfers were products of either Benton or Central high schools. But the season was one of rebuilding due to inexperience. First-year coach Don Mal- sonis team consisted of three freshmen and only two seniors. 6W6 had to rebuild? Malson said, iibut I feel we played very well. The seniors played well, and the freshmen started to gain the experience that is needed to play at the col- lege level? Brothers Rick and Rob Sumpter, both graduates of Benton High School, led the way for the Gtiffons during the season. Rick, a freshman, had the lowest stroke average on the team with an 80, while Rob, a senior, carried an 83-stroke average. Rick was our number one man this year? Malson said. iiHeis a competitor and doesnit let his emotions affect his game. I think Rick is capable of becoming a premier player? Rob Sumpter was the number two player for Western most of the season, while lending experience and leadership to, the squad. iiRob played pretty well, definitely better than last year? Malson said. uHe put in a lot more time. Rounding out the squad were freshmen Brian Mollus and David Hinde, and senior Dave Spinner, all of whom graduated from Central High School. The Iirst test for the youthful Griffs was at the 36-hole Park College Invitational. West- ern finished ninth in the 17-f1eld as Rick Sumpter carded a 157 to pace the team. Perhaps the teams best performance was at the Crossroads of America Tournament hosted by Missouri Southern State College in Joplin. Westernis team total of 667 gave them twentieth place in the field of 32 teams. Rick Sumpter again led the way with a 36-hole total of 163. - iiThat was probably our best outing of the seasonf, Malson said. nWe played two tough courses.

In his first year as MWSC golfcoach, Malson simply tried to keep up with the standards that were present under Coach iCharliea Burri? But now, with a year under his belt, Malson would like to broaden and enhance the pro- gram. ilWeire hoping to have our own tourna- ment next yearf he said, iiif we can handle it financially.

For the past four years, this is where Charles Waldeier has lived and worked. Charles is a 23-year-old student at MWSC, working his way toward a degree in Social Sciences education. Charles first applied for the job as resident advisor at Woodlawn Hills when a friend told him of the opening. ill originme took it for the free apartment included in being a house parent? Charles confessed. Woodlawn Hills is the first home to which clients are sent from out of the hospitals or from private homes. The resident advisors, or house parents, teach the clients self-care, such as bathing, washing clothes and setting the table. Some clients have tasks as basic as learning to tie Shoelaces, while others are taught to prepare meals. As they become more self-reliant, they are transferred to a less restricted home. Basically tWoodlawn Hillsy is a home that prepares these people for life in a less re- stricted environment? Charles explained. Charles, along with three other house par- ents, also tries to teach the clients how to act in public.

The new Student-to-Student Scholar- ship Program was put into effect in June of 1984, and senior Dennis Conover was hired to manage it. Conover, an agriculture economics major from Pattonsburg, is in Charge of coordinating the marketing and sales aspect of the pro- gram, which uses the net proceeds from the sales of pop and juice in vending machines on campus to fund academic and athletic scholarships. According to Conover, it takes him 20-25 hours a week to keep everything running smoothly. ilThree days a weekl collect money I n April of 1984, a new scholarship fund from the machines and check to see how much more pop or juice they need. However, I check up on the machines every day to make sure they are full, he stated. Conover said he feels the STS is a good program for the school and particularly the students. tiWe set a goal for raising aproxi- mately $50,000, and we are right on target as of now. This program really generates money and will help out the students if it continues to go over so well? said Conover. The juice machines, which were added to the program later, resulted from a conversa- tion between Conover and a friend. llWe were thinking about something that would satisfy thirst better than pop and decided juice was pretty good,n he said. ilSo we tried it and it is working very well? Besides running the STS program, Conover is active in various student groups. He is vice-president of the Dorm Council and a member of the Campus Activities Board, Bap- tist Student Union and MWSC Marching Band. Conover can also be found at most home basketball games sitting with an obnoxious group of students known as the Bleacher Creatures, taunting and terrorizing referees and opposing teams. With his interest and involvement in col- lege functions, Conover seems to typify what college spirit is about, but it all comes natur- ally to him; hes just being true to his school. by Eric Trainer e k whg BELOW: Being responsi Conover checks on a r refilling.-Photo by D.

For this MWSC senior, quite the opposite is true. . Besides working on a degree in data proces- sing and holding a part-time job, she also serves as chairperson for the Campus Ac- tivities Board. This position as chairperson is a full-time job in itself. The Campus Activities Board tCABl has eight committees, each in Charge of various activities for MWSC students such as movies, concerts and dances. Special events or- ganized or sponsored by CAB include Spring Break,trips, Las Vegas night and the Home- coming dance and parade. Sound like a headache? Maybe to some, but to Brenda, being in charge of all this organiz- ing and planning is not only a challenge, but exciting and fun. She averages 40 hours per week doing things associated with her job on the board. This includes not only office hours, but attending meetings, making contacts and organizing activities. lTve learned a lot about communicating with people.

Being this type of person keeps Becky very busy, as she spends much of her time serving as a leader for Young Life, just as she has for the past three years. Young life is an interna- tional organization that works in and through high schools to let kids know about the Chris- tian way of life. It is a non-denominational organization and exists to build relationships with kids and show them what Godis caring and love is all about. Through weekly meet- ings, Young Life leaders are able to establish relationships with the kids, letting them know someone is there when they need a friend or just someone to talk to. Serving as a leader, Becky says she often finds herself acting as a counselor to the kids; therefore, being a role model and setting a good example is very important to her. T hough small in stature, her work and A .777Ka M -. Though many of her young friends are able to look down on her physically as far as height is concerned, they certainly seem to look up to her for advice and consultation. ill think sometimes some of them wonder why I, as a 22-year-old college student, would want to spend time at a high school. I really like it, though, and I feel it's important for kids that age to have someone older to talk to and trust. Itls such a crucial time in their lives and kids look for all kinds of things to give them an identity or security. Young Life offers friendship, trust and an opportunity to know Christ? Young Life meets informally in the kids homes, and songs, skits and speakers on Chris- tianity are featured. Other activities offered to high school kids include weekend retreats, parties, winter ski camps in Colorado and various summer camps. Through these ac- tivities and projects, Young Life hopes to reach out and, as Becky puts it, team the right to be heard? For me, its a way to serve God and be a graduates Good Things Come In Small Packages part of these kids, livesfl she added. Besides being active in Young Life, Becky has many other interests. She was managing editor of the Grilfon News, which gave her good experience at writing and interviewing skills. She attended high school at Central here in St. Joseph and is a member of the Calvary Community Church. She highlights her interests as singing, playing the organ and being with people. Her family is very impor- tant to her, and having one of her own is definitely in her plans for the future. A senior at MWSC, Becky will be graduating in the spring of this year with a degree in Marketing. uI want a job in the marketing field, and possibly have my own small busi- ness someday.

According to Funchess, he will be paid to teach laboratory and discussion classes, something that he is looking forward to since he would like to teach college for a living. Funchess has enjoyed attending MWSC be- cause of its small size and the fact that there is more individual contact with instructors than there would be at a larger school. iiThey go Out of their way to help you here? he said. Also, the short distance between Cameron and St. Joseph helped Funchess to decide to attend MWSC. Because he likes being near his home town, Funchess would be very happy to get a job teaching at a school with a graduate program that is near by. iiI would prefer a larger school, because with more people there will be more money to work with and better facilities. When Funchess graduates in May, he will take his 3.5 GPA, his degree and his natural scientific abilities with him as he goes out into the world to teach other students what came easy to him. by Eric Trainer LEFr: Bob Funchess checks the temperature of ethyl al- cohol and benzine while conducting an experiment.- Photo by R.

It is in Calontir that Connie Francisco, an En- glish major at MWSC, is hoping to start a new branch of the Society of Creative Anac- hronists iSCAl SCA is an educational organization, de- signed to serve as a creative outlet for people from all walks of life. The members, anac- hronists, get together to step back in time and re-enact typical scenes of medieval life in all aspeetHlothing or garb, food, speech, literature and activities. The medieval period of time is particularly fun to mimick, Connie believes, since, The people that lived back then really knew how to celebrate. In fact, they had a celebrational attitude toward life in general? The Society began ten years ago, almost by Easley, Jana East, Lisa Eiberger, Carolanne Eldringhoff, Jeff Elliott, Daniel Elrod, Leah Epperson, Robin Esely, Stacey Evans, Linda Evans, Mary Falk, Teresa Farmer, Linda Fenn, Rebecca Fernandez, Christine Finch, Jennifer Fingers, Sherry Fisher, Amy Fisher, James Fisher, LaVeda Flugrad, Lisa Forgey, Art 146 t Lords and Ladies accident, when out of boredom, members of the Englisthumanities department at a California university got together and held a tournament similar to those of the medieval period. The idea spread quickly, and SCA is now an international organization with the continents divided into kingdoms, baronies and cantons much like the medieval feudal system, ruled by kings and lords. Connie first became interested in anach- ronism four years ago, while she was attend- ing college in Maryville. A few of her friends had set up a small group of wandering minst- rals belonging to SCA, and she joined, discov- ering it was an interesting way to spend her free time. Connie feels developing a personna is one of the most important steps to getting in- volved in SCA. Members pick out a specific time period from the medieval era and a particular place, and give themselves names and family histories. Some develop a whole new personality. this like Halloween. You can be anybody. Some let their personalities run wild, while others become their alter ego. Its almost like acting out a partf Connie explained. Conniels new personna is a Norse woman, who wears simple tunics as garb and carries1 all her possessions on her belt around her waist.

Though most mem- bers Choose personnas living in medieval Europe, there are some who have developed Arabic or Indian personnas.

Fre- quently they travel to the Kansas City barony for weekend tournaments, where knights: light, crafts like sewing, basketweaving and jewelry are prevalent, and much feasting and dancing are done.

To MWSC students Eric House and Steve Pierce, death is all in a days work. Eric and Steve both worked part-time at Heaton-Bowman-Smith-Sidenfaden Chapel during the fall semester, gaining experience before going on to mortuary school. For Eric, becoming a mortician seemed the natural thing to do. II have always wanted to embalm.

Eric said. ffAnd when the pall-bearers of one man came into the home in tennis shoes, I wasnlt sure what to think? However, Eric and Steve agree that a fun- eral home is usually a quiet place to work. ffThere isnt too much going on around the home. We just have to make our own funf Steve explained. At Heaton-Bowman, Eric and Steve ar- ranged flowers in the staterooms, went on runs to pick up bodies from hospitals or their homes, directed visitors to the appropriate staterooms, and occasionally drove hearses Xeesaxesxxeexxsxeexxeexxexsxxxxxxexexeeeaaxesxxx during funerals.

We were assigned specilic families at first, but then we started going door to door, spreading the word that we all have one God and we all are one, no matter how different we may seem? While in Brazil, the country was under military control. Nothing was more frighten- ing to Karla than walking down the streets of Novalguacu while armed military person- nel stood idle on street corners.

Dave explained there were three types of American soldiers in Vietnam-drug addicts, drinkers and religious fanatics. llWe all had our own way of dealing with the terrible tragedies going on all around us that became everyday occurrences? Dave served in the infantry for less than a year when he was wounded by an American land mine, just two weeks before he was scheduled to be discharged. ilTwo soldiers, friends of mine, were just a few feet away. They were both killed? Dave remembered. Dave was wounded in both arms and his right leg. Once he had recovered somewhat, he returned home. For three weeks he never left the safety of his house, keeping himself in a drunken state that he believes helped him deal with the everyday noises that resem- bled the threatening sounds of combat to him. thne afternoon, my mother dropped a pot on the floor, and instinctively I, too, hit the tloorf Dave recalled. uI was conditioned by the ever-present danger that had surrounded me in Vietnam to that kind of response? Dave feels he had a hard time adjusting to civilian life. ltMy return home would have RIGHT: Conversation with friends over coffee helps Dave Arnold alleviate the pressures of another school daya Photo by D. Logan 156 l Lords and Ladies been much easier had there been a transi- tional period between the jungles and my living room, Dave explained. ttDuring World War II the soldiers had a long boat ride home to adjust to being away from war, Whereas I was in Saigon one day and standing on my doorstep the next! As a rehabilitated alcoholic and drug user, Dave hopes his education will not only help him improve himself but enable him to help others, especially those going through prob- lems similar to those he overcame. by Don Coy and Shelly Ogi undergraduates W.

I ,.,. . . Clubs Meet Student Needs issouri Western has 53 recognized M organizations, from the Agriculture Club to the Wesley Foundation. Many of these organizations are active on campus throughout the year. MWSC clubs and organizations attract a variety of students who have a wide range of interests. There are religious groups such as the New- man Club for Catholics and the Baptist Stu- dent Union. Government-oriented organiza- tions include Student Government Associa- tion, Dorm Council and Campus Activities Board. There are service-oriented groups in- cluding Alpha Phi Omega and Circle K Club. Biology Club, Psychology Club, Lawyers As- sistant Society, Student Accounting Society and Delta Phi Upsilon are all associated with specific majors. Foreign exchange students can hold membership in the International Stu- dents Club. For those who donlt feel they fit into any of these categories, there is the Nontradi- tional Students Club. New clubs are coming into existence all the time, so it seems all one has to do is look for a club catering to one,s particular in- terests-a niche in which to settle. Agriculture Club Farmers of todayls society have experi- enced many set-backs concerning their trade. The AGRICULTURE CLUB on campus en- countered its biggest set-back when the Coor- dinating Board for Higher Education prop- . osed to abdicate the Agriculture Department. The Aggies immediately sprang into action by organizing Keep Moo Westernti, a cam- paign attempt to politically save the depart- ment. The AG CLUBls main objective is to show students the llfun sidell of farming and to mark farming on campus by sponsoring the Ag Olympics in the fall and hosting the annual llFarmers, Field Dayi according to President John Crawford. llOur biggest event, regularly, is Homecom- ing because we strive to win the float compet- ition. All the Aggies participate in making a spectacular float for the parade. We won first place, ya know? he added. Association of Young Agronomists Members of the ASSOCIATION OF YOUNG AGRONOMISTS aid each other in the crop and soil sciences by researching and identify- ing crops and soils during their meetings. In March, the club holds a crop-judging contest for high school students so the members can administer their knowledge to the future ag- ronomists, according to Kevin Herkelman, club president. WI'he high school students identify plants, seeds and soils for prizes, he added.

According to President Dawn Shaffmaster, the goals of PHI BETA LAMBDA are to de- velop business leadership, strengthen the confidence of students in themselves, create more interest in an understanding of Amer- ican business enterprise and encourage mem- bers to develop individual projects that im- prove the business community. Activities such as mock interviews were sponsored by PHI BETA LAMBDA to prepare students for real job interviews. A speaker was planned to address students in the areas of the business image and non-verbal com- munication. Participation was also encour- aged in the state contest at Jefferson City in April. We have around 15 members in the or- ganization, but I wish we had more? said Shaffmaster. iiItis a general group, and conside ering how many business majors there are, we should have more involved? Phi Mu Sorority PHI MU, the oldest sorority in the United States, was founded on religious beliefs, though it is not a religious organization as such. Membership is primarily based on scholarship, or academic standards, accord- ing to President Beth Schweizer. llWe only have about 10 active members right now, but Pd like tosee the membership get up as high as '30 if possible,n said Schweizer. ill want our organization to be recognized on campus as one that people would look at and say, igee, look at themm organizations Julie Swope takes donations for the Arthritis Foundation 35 Part of a Phi Mu Sorority activityaPhoto by R.

Photo by R. Duncan 190 Lords and Ladies administration Administrative Goals Set dministrative work is all the same, right? Wrong! The administration of an institution is a key factor in deter- mining the strength and quality of that institu- tion and its progress as well. The administration at MWSC can be proud of its eiforts and success this year in enhanc- ing academic quality, improving student sup- port service and continuing to provide cost elfective and efficient administrative struc- ture. In enhancing academic quality, a tightening of academic standards is taking place. This includes improving procedures for student test-outs and creating more delinite and ap- propriate standards for readmittance. There is another plan to enhance the services of the Learning Skills Center by improvement of its space allocation and by the development of an LSC computer laboratory for basic skills instruction of students in the areas of mathematics and English. Plans also are being made for development of computer re- sources in more departmental programs. A big step in enhancing academic quality this year was the successful development of an effective mandatory academic advising sys- tem for all students that includes a com- puterized pre-registration procedure. The ad- visement and pre-registration procedure was definitely a successful endeavor, as a large number of students participated. Also as a result, there was a significant decrease in the number of undeclared majors. A second area in which the administration is striving for improvement is that of student support service. This includes on-going stu- dent orientation and integrating this process with those of academic advising and pre-reg- istration. These Changes should reduce stu- dent drop-out by providng each student with good academic counsel. Also, plans are being made to expand the present institutional stu- dent internship program into a collegeicom- munity Cooperative Education Internship Program for MWSC students. As for goals in this area of student support, the administration hopes to establish Closer identity between the college and the region. This will include development of departmen- tal links With alumni, increased use of campus facilities and development of an on-going public relations program. Finally, the administration is continuing to provide cost effective and efficient adminis- trative structure. Through computerization of administrative procedures, success in this area is exemplified in the new advisement and pre-registration system. Another impor- tant improvement is through the develop- ment of grants. The College Relations Depart- ment serves an imprortant role in the grant- writing procedure, although the faculty is also to be credited for the effort involved in grant proposals. These and many other programs and plans are the responsibility of the administration. Progress is being made, especially in the areas of academic quality, student support service and cost efficient administrative structure. As a whole, the administration is striving for a strong, systematic approach in formulating the institutions plans for the future. by Valeri Dunfee Mr. Ken Hawk Dr. Janet Murphy Dr. James McCarthy . . the President Executive Vice-Presz'dent Vz'ce-Preszdemfor 595:? a report to Admz'm'stmtz've Affairs Lords and Ladiesl 191 hat image does the word lllibrarian bring to mind? Dean Helen Wigersma certainly does not fit into this stereotypical image as dean of the library. Quite the opposite is true of this vibrantly energetic woman who manages to keep up with her husband, two sons, a successful career and various types of volunteer work. Among other things, she is also a vital member of iiMurphyis Magic? the faculty softball team. Dean Wigersma presides as the head libra- rian at MWSC, the director of the Learning Resources Center, and is responsible for the Learning Skills Center, counseling, career planning and placement, and the Womenis Studies program. However, her endeavors and energy do not stop with only what has to be done. It is also quite evident in her genuine interest in the lives of students, fel- low faculty members and even the exciting world of horses. As much as her job with the college now entails, the position was not always so in- volved. Her job and responsibilities have grown with the college itself from its begin- nings on the iiconcrete campus when it was still a junior college. Dean Wigersma started as the sole librarian and her Hrst job was sim- ply a thorough cleaning and sorting of the books. Of 13,000 volumes, 5000 outdated or unnecessary volumes were thrown out. Then began the work to build and accumulate books to make the library successful. She also helped design the present library building at MWSC. Now it contains about 150,000 vol- umes and has a staff of eleven. Dean Wigersma has seen many changes, and she expressed her pride in the the li- braryis growth along with the growth of the college. The growth is evident in its expansion from a very small library to a maj or resource center in this region. A faculty advisory committee now exists to assist in accumulating necessary RIGHT: Dean Helen Wigersma gives her feet a rest while conducting business over the phone.-Photo by R.

The OnLine Computer Library Center tOCLC L which is a national bibliographic sys- tem containing 11 million bibliographic re- cords, was installed in 1976. A computerized reference date-based service was added to the library in 1982. Dean Wigersma said they are now working towards total library auto- mation which will be an important step in library growth. Of the libraryis primary objectives, she stated, iiWe are service-oriented, especially Wigersma-Not Your Average Librarian concerning students, with a motto of WW6 want you to want us. We are always willing to adjust our available services to the needs of the students? Dean Wigersma said, I thoroughly enjoy working with the staff, other faculty members and just people in general? With her kind of vitality and dedication, Dean Wigersma will certainly continue to promote growth of not only the college li-y brary, but of all those with whom she is as- sociated. by Valeri Dunfee lt- Dr. Dean of Con Dr. Willi Dean of Liba L '. v wrv; ' 'v5L,:- :4' ;V-v a.

She began her collegiate teaching career at the St. Joseph Junior College and continued to teach at the institution as it grew into its current four-year status as Missouri Western State College. a A foreign language major from Northwest Missouri State University, Madame Hoffman has spent several summers in total emersion of the French language at various colleges, as well as traveling extensively in France, to gain proficiency in the language and culture, so that I will be able to give more to my students? The northwest Missouri native says she genuinely loves her students as individuals and is always available to listen to their prob- lems and desires. Madame Hoffman says that there is iireal joy in teaching. uIt is very re- warding when students begin to communi- cate in the French language? she confided. French students at MWSC study both the language and the culture of the country. An outgrowth of the classes, students also corres- pond with French pen pals; some have even been able to meet through the program the department has, allowing students to travel in France as part of their education. Rosemary Hoffman believes that the pro- gram abroad is satisfying, as it gives a world view. Smiling, she asked, ills it overly ambiti- ous to want your students to be goodwill ambassadors?i, Dr. Jane Frick, chairperson of the Depart- ment of English and Modern Languages, feels that Madame Hoffman promotes ugood willii through her teaching.

A statuesque figure, Banks is known as a friendly, honest and helpful man who has become as commonplace to MWSC as the buildings on campus. He has been here since 1970 when he was recommended to the college by James Hayes, chief of police. Born the son of a Methodist preacher in Oilton, Oklahoma, Banks had to move fre- quently when he was young. Every year or two a preacher is required to move to a different parish. According to Banks, this caused many problems with his schooling. Also, since Banks is black, he was not allowed to attend the non-integrated schools with white children.

When his father died, Banks went to work at the age of 17 to provide for his mother and sister. His jobs included working in a brickyard, a glass factory and a government- operated soil and water conservation camp. In 1941, Banks brought his mother and sister to St. Joseph and started to work for Swift, but World War II began and he was drafted into the army. 1 was in the 518th Trucking Company, and we hauled ammo, food and bombs on the Burma Road between India and China? he recalled. iiSnipers were everywhere? After the war, he returned to St. Joseph and went back to work for Swift until 1970, when he was hired by ,MWSC. He began with maintenance, eutting wood and clearing brush for what are now the parking lots. Then in 1971,, he moved on to become part of campus security.

Matthews Give Teaching Together an iiAii-for Advantageous iving together and also working L together is an idea of the i805, and it appears to be successful here at MWSC. The college is one of the larger employers in St. Joseph, with approximately 4 10 full and part-time employees. Several of these em- ployees are married to each other. Dr. George Matthews, professor of English and Modern Languages, and Pamela Matthews, Business and Economics instructor, are one of these couples who live and work together success- fully. How difficult is it to work together and live together in this type of setting? Interest- ingly enough, neither of the Matthews cited any particular problems with this. Instead, they focused on advantages which seem to give the idea a purely positive ring.

As Dr. Matthews put it, iiWe have common contacts with students, administra- tion and faculty and although the people are not the same because of different depart- ments, we are still able to communicate with each other concerning our jobs and ideas. Mrs. Matthews agreed and added that iiworking in the same setting definitely makes discussions of general situations easier to un- derstand? Another plus for working in the same in- stitution is that the Matthews are able to plan their time and schedules more easily. Their teaching and vacation times can be planned around the same set of Circumstances. Oddly enough, the Matthews rarely come in contact with one another during the work day. Even though they sometimes are work- ing in the same building, there does not seem to be a case of bumping into each other on a regular basis. In fact, Dr. Matthews points out iibetween August and April we have had lunch together only once? Because of varied schedules and respon- sibilities the Matthews are not able to carpool to the college, This apparent minor detail does not affect the couple and the benefits they believe they have while working to- gether. by Debbie Silvey OPPOSITE PAGE: Dr. George Matthews reads the news- paper and his wife, Pamela, plays with their cat while relaxing at their homeaPhoto by R.

The elections and the Olympics led the national news while tragedies in India headed internw tional events. History-making events dominated the 1984 presidential election. Eight Democratic con- tenders-former Governor Reuben Askew, Senators Alan Cranston, John Glenn, Gary Hart and Ernest Hollings, Jesse Jackson, former Senator George McGovern and former Vice President Walter Mondale-hoped to gain their partyts endorsement at the Demo- cratic Convention in San Francisco in order to run against President Ronald Reagan. After a heated battle, Mondale and his run- ning mate, US. Representative Geraldine Fen raro of New York, the first woman to run on a major party1s ticket, were the victors; The convention was held from July 16-19. About a month later tAugust 20-231 the Republicans, meeting in Dallas, chose Reagan and Vice President George Bush to run for re-election.

Gymnast Mary Lou Retton and track and field sensation Carl Lewis, who won four gold medals, led the Americans to 174 medalseincluding 83 gold.
