' Campus Comes Alive Wilh Students I+'s Moving in Dag: Chaos, CluHer, Climbing, and Carousing As leaves begin to loft from the trees, Otterbein prepares for the 1985-86 school year. For the students, excitement has been building for days, the summer has finally come to an end, and backpacks and books need to be rediscovered. Trucks, vans, and cars are loaded down with photos, reminders of home, and all the typical college stu- dent's necessities. Some students are looking forward to dorm life, others are moving into the wild Greek houses, and a lucky few are preparing to move into their own apartments. All the students will soon enter the halls of Towers, either for the first time or as they have in years past. According to uppetclassman, Ranee Vincent, the best thing about returning to Otterbein is get- to see all of my friends again. Squeals of happiness ring from the girls' dorms as friends get reacquainted, and stereos blast from the guys' dorms as they jam All lbofe fminf! -jmzetjobmon while unpacking. Students moving into the Greek houses are looking forwad to a more homey-like atmosphere, says TEM house resident janet Buchan. Moving in day doesn't bring absolute joy, though, according to fourth floor I-Ianby resident, janet johnson, who says, It's mind boggling. Where do you put all of your stuff' And all those stairs! For new students, the day can be nerve-racking, especially since it's prob- ably the first time they have really left the nest. New student, Tracie Boger, however, says she likes the size of the rooms. After getting settled into their rooms and hanging the last poster, Otterbein students look forward to a fun-filled year with lots of parries and wonderful memories to take home in june. - jolene Thompson 4. f ,qi .5 x X I . i sf' ' , mmwmmmm 1-awzm Y , M TIZER 5 AL K-Il 5 t N Scot Veatch takes a break from unpacking to rest some boxes.

J . Searching, Pomping, Cleaning, and Singing College Greeks prepare for Homecoming Weekend Homecoming is more than one clay long. It actually begins weeks before the big day, with everyone pulling together to ready the festivities. Elatbeds, chicken wire and brightly colored tissue paper, pretty girls and fun- ny songs are the things that go together to make homecoming weekend a success. Everyone, Greek organizations and other groups, is infected with the spirit of homecoming. Plans are readied for the float that each organization can enter in the parade. Finding a flatbed is usually the most difficult task. Everybody puts in many hours and long nights to finish the floats in time for the start of the parade on homecoming morning. Some groups take the competition very seriously, trying their best to win, while other groups concentrate more on just enjoying the activities. This year the Sphinx fraternity won with their entry 2 Homecoming Week titled, Otterbein Wrecks the Dukes of Heidelburg. I Jzzppofe we put in at lean' 40 bourr ofwork that week. - Lim Porter Most Greek organizations put in a lot of elbow grease in order to get their houses in shape for visiting alumni. One of the more beautiful activities of the week is Serenades. Women are bedeckecl in the colors of their sororities underneath a canopy of crepe paper and garland. The queen candidates are serenaded by their sisters while an au- dience of friends and faculty watches. The evening is a lot of hard work for the sororities. The precedinglweeks in- clude hours of choosing music, per- sonalizing the lyrics and practicing the songs L to perfect the women's performance. Lisa Potter, co-chorister of Tau Ep- silon Mu sorority, said, The worst part was probably getting the practice rooms. I suppose we put in at least 40 hours of work that week. - The tradition of announcing the queen by playing her favorite song on WOBN continued. Shonda Keckley was congratulated by her sorority sisters as they gathered at the OWL house to listen for the announcement of queen. After hours of hard work and prepara- tion, the campus was ready for Homecoming Day. - Lisa Pettit and Jeannine Seitz A . .k .l jf t Q 'K X. 33, WN Q. - i X 'Tgf -Q- tx.. , 3 . X X, , ..

Students stayed close to their radios on the night of October 11, because the 1985 homecoming queen was to be announced. The song, Don't Try to Live Your Life in One Day came on, and the Sigma Alpha Tau house began to go wild with screams of excitement. WOBN was playing the song of their candidate, Shonda Keckley. The house was filled with excitement as everyone tried to rush up at the same time to congratulate Shonda, who had her face in her hands, Owl Rosemary Lutz said. Everyone was so excited, it was hard to believe we got it, she said. The 1985 maid-of-honor was Epsilon Kappa Tau's Alecia jones.

Perhaps have just a few friends or family members living with you, and not have to worry about dealing with other people. In a way, the Department of Theatre explored this idea in its fall term production of The Diary of Anne Frank. , The setting was that of isolation, but the inhabitants were not isolated by their own choice. The Frank and VanDaan families went into hiding to flee Nazi persecution. Tim Gregory, who played Otto Frank, described how he envisioned the isolation: Imagine having to isolate two families together in a very small space and having to live daily with the horrifying thought of being imprisoned or killed. The thought is taxing both mentally and physically. If helped me realize, more perfomzlly, the plight of the j6Zl'.f.l' -- Dizzfid Cizldufell Other cast members included Jodie Silk as the leading role, Anne Frank, David Caldwell, Dia I-Iuekler, Charlotte Dougherty, Marc Foster, Liana Peters, Roy Woods, Michael Blakenship, and jo Beth Phalen. Senior David Caldwell found playing the part of a man in hiding quite revealing. The actor com- mented, Through research and talking to those who lived during the war, it helped me realize, more personally, the plight of the jews in Europe during World War II. The Diary of Anne Frank was well-received by audiences, even though it did have a sobering theme. The actors' performances were also well-received as both Silk and Gregory received nomina- tions for the Irene Ryan Award for Ac- ting. Nominations were made by the American College Theatre Festival after viewing the show. - Vicki Mabry Z4 Diary of Anne Frank The Franks and VanDanns celebrate the news of the In- vasion of Normandy, Mr. VanDann CDavid Caldwell! is caught stealing from l the food Supp y. cd Lu E I- -1 Q Otto Frank lTim Gregory! leads the Hanukkah prayer, tl-as Y ff.

Valerie Mathew and john Thatcher sharpened their skills as feature twirler and drum major for their last season. Garth Walker, Scott Martin and Doug Martin put the final touches on the new :adences for the percussion section. Mar- :ha Dunphy and Melissa Wise finished organizing the uniforms to pass out to the oand. . The band performed at five home games and two away, one against cross- rown rival Capital in Cooper Stadium. Also, the band was lead group in the the Columbus USA festival. In addition, Homecoming featured all Otterbein I clon'I think people realize bow much luzrul work goef into making lbe band look good. - Lori Wawen music groups, including the marching band, in a Saturday evening concert. In an unusually rainy autumn, full of wet practices and performances, the spirits of the band members were not dampened. Songs like Neutron Dance, by the Pointer Sisters, Children of Sanchesf' and Land of Make Believe, by Chuck Mangione, kept the band and the audience hopping. The marching band is a unique organization. According to Lori Warren, being in the band is like being in a unique club. I don't think people realize how much hard work goes into making the band look good. The Otterbein Marching Band was led by the brother and sister team of john and Lisa Thatcher this year. john was a fourth-year drum major and his younger sister was a first-year field commander. The two were even highlighted on the ll o'clock news of WCMH-TV after a Wednesday night band practice. As the season came to a close, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. There had been a lot of hard work, a few sad times, but most of all, a lot of fun. - Garth Walker Marching Band 7 Pe+er Pan Loved bu Boih Young and Old Casi performs io record-breaking crowds After ten weeks of studying Astronomy, Computer Science, and Ad- vanced Statistics, the last thing I wanted to do was start studying for finals. When I discovered that the Theatre department was performing Peter Pan as their Children's Theatre production on Satur- day morning, I thought, What the heck, I'm supporting the school by at- tending a school sponsored event. Hey, anything to avoid that Stats book! I knew that every third grader in Col- umbus arid myself just wouldn't mix well, so I found a friend who was also avoiding studying, and we made our way to Cowan Hall. Once the show started, we were never once sorry about our deci- sion to attend. The cast and crew of Peter Pan were able to carry the au- dience into the world of make believe, there was no more Westerville, no more Otterbein, and no more Stats final, in- stead the world was filled with pirates, Indians, fairies, and our hero, Peter Pan. I-Iow was Peter Pan CDia Hueklerb managing to fly across the stage? I inadvertently .ftepped on az fha. - R4zQ9b Scott Huekler said, about the stunt work, It was scary at first. I was even dropped a few times, and we had to start all over a few days before the show. After a while, though, I relaxed and had fun. Grand performances were also given by Tim Gregory as the salty Captain Hook, Catherine Randazzo as Tiger Lily the Indian princess, Cathy Collins as 8 Peter Pan The entire cast gathers for one last bow. Catherine Randazzo, as Tiger Lily, leads her tribe in a high-stepping peace dance, Wendy, and Chuck Rosen as john. When asked about working with children, First Mate Ralph Scott said, I enjoyed working with the children very much. The only problem we had the first few weeks was that I inadvertently step- ped on a few, but we worked through it. My friend and I were not the only ones to enjoy the show, children flocked around the cast after the show, asking for autographs and wanting to fly with Peter Pan. I left the theatre dreaming of Tinkerbell, Peter Pan, and far off lands, hoping that my dream of passing finals might be realized. At least some dreams come true: I passed all my classes and Huekler was nominated for the Irene Ryan award for her performance as Peter Pan.

Burn, Capital, Burn Heard Throughout the Night Cap-0tter Bonfire ignites the spirits of students About 200 students gathered behind Engle Hall to burn a sniffed Capital dummy in this year's Cap-Otter bonfire. The evening was cool, but the bonfire was warming as everyone gathered around. Students came in groups, Chum- ming around and laughing together to cheer on the football team. The festivities began with the Otter- bein Marching Band playing the fight song. Then the cheerleaders led the crowd in cheers. Cider and donuts were available to any hungry student who was fast enough to get some before the sup- ply ran out. Football coach Robert Shaw en- couraged the football team, and they It war a great opportunity to get together and rbeer on the team. - Debbie Lamp responded by shouting, Beat Capital! The flame burned higher, and the crowd began to shout Burn, Capital, Burn. The dummy, dressed in a Capital t-shirt, was picked up and tossed on the flames. As the dummy burned, the students cheered even louder. Debbie Lamp, a sophomore said, It was a great opportunity to get together and cheer on the team. As the bonfire drew to an end, the cheerleaders led one more cheer and the band played one last song, The pep rally was a success, with everyone walking away excited and ready to beat Capital that weekend. - Beth Knoles Bonfire 31 The Cardinal salutes! w A. RAVARD MABRY Bud Yoest fills his office with otter paraphemalia, as he is a big Otter for Mascot supporter. The cardinal takes time to visit with fans. 52 Mascot Debate B tter aining Edge on ardinal Debate over oiiicial school mascot continues This fall the 37-year controversy over whether the otter or the cardinal should be Otterbein's mascot resurfaced. Debate around campus, prompted by interest groups, proved that the mascot dilemma was far from resolved. Chief of the otter camp, Dr. Elmer Yoest, has followed the history of Otter- bein's traditional cardinal mascot. Cardinal originally referred to Otter- bein's colors of tan and cardinal. Around the l960's, cardinal became associated with the bird, but was never formally adopted as the official school mascot. The battle between the otter and car- dinal has actually been raging for almost four decades. Although the cardinal has always emerged dominant in the past, the otter is slowly gaining support. To organize their efforts, otter sym- pathizers founded the Friends of the Ot- Yv 'org ' .iw . N-4: 'li ter Committee. Their strategy to establish the otter has been subtle. In- stead of a violent overthrow of the car- dinal, the committee acquired permission from the college to use the otter in newspaper headlines, posters, t-shirts, etc. We'll keep the cardinal around for a while and let one come out on top, Yoest said. Other strides in the otter promotion include its being approved by the Col- lege Relations Office for press releases and replacing the cardinal on the football helmets. Fellow champion of the otter cause, Dr. james Grissinger suggested that Gary Tirey, the director of the marching band, purchase an otter suit. Grissinger's tactic is to phase out the cardinal as its suit wears out. Yoest and Grissinger, along with ll other members of the Otterbein com- munity, are pushing the otter as mascot because it fits the college. Grissinger People Jay you can? make an otter mean, but a cardinal never whipped anybody. - Dr. Elmer Yoert said, the cardinal is not very individual, and we are a small college that tries to be special. Yoest said, The otter is really a magnificent animal. People say you can't make an otter mean, but a cardinal never whipped anybody. - Jeannine Seitz W' J? The otter is gaining support for he was found on many homecoming floats this year! This little guy is obviously a big fan of the cardinal for mascot. Mascot Debate 53 Locker's Boys Bring Home Conference Title Soccer team wins OAC championship with 7-0-1 record When I was a freshman all I knew about soccer was that the players kick- ed a ball that looked like a volleyball, and they couldn't touch it with their hands. Four years later, I'm an avid fan of the game as I see my team win the OAC conference title. Part of the reason soccer hit Otter- bein with a bang is the influence of Coach Steve Locker. Locker, a native of Philadelphia, played collegiate soc- cer for Penn State and later played for a semi-pro team in California. Locker attended coaching school while living in Germany, and was the first American ever to graduate with a B-license, a degree higher than anything available in the States. After coaching at the high school and col- lege level, Locker accepted the coaching position at Ottetbein in 1985. A lot of Locker's success can be credited to his strong recruitment of key players. Robert England, recruited from Reston, Virginia, commented, Coming to another state to play soc- cer was a challenge. He added, The success of the team is due to the coach's involvement and the team's strong desire to win. The '85 season will be rememberd in the minds of the fans as the most exciting year for soccer yet. Crowd at- tendance was phenomenal as students caught the fever of a team undefeated in the OAC. A key game for the team was against Mt. Union, when two undefeated conference teams met. The game ended in a tie after Patrick Baker scored a goal in the last few minutes of play. The team, as a whole, triumphed in winning the OAC conference title. elf -r-151. , -- -.

Eight freshmen started and played important roles. The play of Tim Vorhees and joe Spahr, just to name a couple, was very good, especially late in the season. Along with the spirited play of the pound lineman from the University of Michigan, transferred to Otterbein andy was a big addition to the defensive linell this year.

Not the players, not the spectators, not even the coaches, these unsung heroes are the We are the teams' 4111 ,fl fupporterr. - Ronda Gearbmft athletic trainers. Most people have probably seen these terrific helpers rush to wrap an ankle or rescue an injured player, but very few spectators are really aware of the time and energy that the trainers put into their job. Maureen Sims called the job a wonderful learning experience. In charge of the trainers is their men- tor, Terri Hazucha, who assists and leads them in their activities. A typical day in the life of a trainer begins at least one hour before every practice or game when he or she arrives to help tape up players. The trainer then sits through the sporting event or practice to help with any possible injuries, and finally, after the event, the trainer assists with any therapy. Technically, a trainer works to prevent injuries, and then if injuries oc- cur, to rehabilitate the player. In doing so, they must often sacrafice many hours of their free time. The players think very highly of their trainer, according to the manager of the soccer team, Cathy Heckmann, who also states that the coaches ap- preciate the trainer's assistance. Sims comments, The coaches may become upset when it is necessary to remove a player from the game, but they do understand. Ronda Gearheart, trainer and active athlete, feels that her ex- perience as a trainer will definitely prove helpful to my future career and she said that she enjoys being involved with the sports. Gearhart also claims that we Ctrainersb are the teams' 9951 supporters. So, the next time you see a trainer rush onto the field or court, stop for a moment and admire all of his or her dedicated, hard work. - Jolene Thompson Fall Term Trainers 41 Rhonda LeRoy goes up to tap in another point for the Lady Cardinals.

Volleyball is no different from any other sport, except the 1985 season brought not only a new season, but also a new coach. Terri Walters of Miami University replaced Terry Hazucha as head volleyball coach after Hazucha was promoted to head of Sports Medicine. The volleyball team returned four seniors this season, Shari Cox, Richelle Ekin, Rhonda LeRoy, and Sherri Shoemaker. The women were all a bit apprehensive about having a new coach their senior year. LeRoy expressed her feelings this way: I was nervous about having a new coach my senior year. I would have rather played under a coach who knew me, and knew how I played. The team ended the season with a record of 13 wins and 21 losses. A lack of consistency among the team in their play could explain the poor record, said Walters. The Lady Cardinals proved their talent at the start of the season with an undefeated record in the first six games. Four-year letterman LeRoy thinks the team might have performed better if the coach had been more experienced. The '85 season may not have been the glorious year the graduating seniors hoped for, but the coach and underclassmen gained valuable ex- perience for the seasons to come. - Vicki Mabry Volleyball THE 1985 MEN'S CROSS COUNTRY TEAM: ro 1: Alan Campbell, Tim Reichard, Scott Alpeter, David Hullg row 2: Bob Byme, Chuck VanSickle, Ben White Tom Schnurr, Rod Thome, Coach Dave Lehman, Scott Alpeter crowned Fifteen-year head coach Dave Lehman has done nothing but improve his men's cross country team every year here at Otterbein.

Residents, depending on which dorm you lived in, either had to pile on the blankets to fight the cold, drafty rooms, or had to crack a window to cool down an 80-degree room. Senior Sherri Puderbaugh said, 'AAfter four years you get used to it. It really isn't so bad.

Rush begins for the women with Pan Hel Presents and an open house in fall quarter to help them get an idea of what Rush is and what the different sororities are all about. The first three weeks back from break are murder, though, says one rushee. These weeks are filled with tears, disappointments, joys and smiles according to Robin Rogers, a rush counselor. The second open house begins the second half of Rush and holds many humorous memories for some past rushees, such as a missed step and a fall, or a spilled cup of punch. After the second open house come the novelty and final parties. The novelty party allows the sororities to show the rushees the fun side of themselves. It also helps to pull the girls in each sorority closer together. The final party is a more tear-filled and sentimental time for the sorority, when the rushees see a more serious side of sorority members.

The evening festivities were topped off with a mixer at the Parke Hotel.

The department also invites professionals to perform or direct productions. This winter's production of Lady House Blues featured the actress Betty Miller as the guest artist. Miller who played the leading part of Liz, the mother, was understudied by junior theater major Catherine Ran- dazzo. The understudy must memorize the lines, rehearse the scenes, and be able to perform should the actress be unable to go on stage. In other words, the understudy must do everything the lead does yet perform only in case of emergency. Randazzo commented about being the understudy, I still had to be at rehearsals and do all that work, yet I didn'r get to show my results. It was like being in the play without being in it. Randazzo enjoyed the learning experience, however, and said, It was rewarding in a way because I could experiment with a character without having to worry about end results. The play revolved around an all- female cast consisting of Miller, Nancy Fox, Liana Peters, Gina Grogg, and Cathy Collins. Lady House Blues is 58 Lady House Blues a professional a slice-of-life play about women during World War I.

Petruchio, played by Tim Gregory, was one of the more traditionally played roles. Gregory played the husband who tames a shrew of a wife. The role bal- anced the more outlandish characters Nelson had created. Gregory com- mented, I enjoyed the show because Petruchio was an actor himself. His cruelty to Kate was merely an act: he genuinely cared for her, which made his anger toward her humorous. It's a classic Shakespearean role. The winter production of Taming of the Shrew was not quite the Shakespeare most people expected, but it was well-received. The cast and director created a Taming of the Shrew that could have made William Shakespeare himself roll in his seat. - Vicki Mabry Taming ofthe Shrew C5 Best Young Actor in America found at Otterbein Tim Gregory takes national honors in winning the Irene Ryan Award What happens when a young man with good looks, a beautiful voice, and natural acting ability comes to Otterbein to learn theatre?

Gregory obviously had a better chance than most as he tied for first place in the final round at the Kennedy Center and won for himself the title of best young actor in America.

Part of that success must be credited to fan support: not only do the students support the team at the Rike Center, but the Otter fans are notorious for making RoadlripJ. One of the most popular roadtrips for O.C. fans is the trip to Wittenberg. Trainer Paul Keefer explains, Not only do you see competitive basketball be- 1 Kandi Kennedy and John Watts show some Otter- in spirit before the Capital basketball game. The long trip to Nebraska takes its toll on Karen Slade! N..- cause of the rivalry, but there's this great little spot called O'Brien's that has a great happy hour before the game. This season's Witt trip was made over Christmas break and was one of the most exciting of the season, as the game went into overtime and students went wild. Another exciting roadlrip for fans and players alike was the trip to Capital. Many students arrived at the rival cam- pus some time before noon to ensure that they would be able to get tickets for the 3 o'clock game. Seniors Tim Bates and Bruce Gifford share their afternoon: We arrived early. We prepared ourselves mentally and physically. And we left with their nets! The l986 roizdtrip most remembered, however, was the last one, the trip to Lincoln, Nebraska, for the semi-final game in Division Ill. Approximately ZOO-250 students traveled 15 hours to Lincoln for the game against Nebraska Wesleyan.

According to Co-Captain Michael McKinney it really means a lot to have the fans with you when you travel to other schools. Fan support definitely gives you an edge, especially when you have as many people following you as we did this past year. Otterbein has great fans.

All year, Otterbein was a consistent team at the free throw line, shooting a respectable 74.7 percent. Steady foul shooting even helped the Cardinals win some of the close ones. But in the NCAA quarterfinal game in Lincoln, Nebraska, it was a different story.

Coach Dick Reynolds said in retrospect, The team was disappointed that we didn't make it to the final four. But in 1985 we went 23-4 and won nothing. This year we were 28-3, and we won three championships. The Cardinals won the OAC regular season champion- ship, the OAC tournament, and the Regional tournament. The Cardinals set many school records, including most wins 1285, longest win- ning streak CZOD, the best field goal percentage in a game C72,7 percentl, and best free throw percentage in a game 495.7 percentj. With team successes come personal honors.

The indoor track meets are not scored for the OAC season, but it does give coaches and athletes a good look at the competition from other schools.

Freshman Kelly Brinkman commented, I had never run indoor track before, and it took me a few weeks to get used to the different surface. Brinkman added, I like knowing that the meets aren't scored yetg it gives me some time to adjust to running at the collegiate level.

What the team did have was four juniors, two sophomores, and two freshmen. However, experience will not be a problem next year. Kennedy said, Next year, I will have four seniors on the team and three of them will have played for Otterbein for four years. Sophomore Donna Peters, the team's point guard, agreed with Kennedy and said, This year of playing together will be a big help next year. A second problem was that this was Kennedy's first year as coach at Otter- bein. Freshman Andrea Shiffer said, The coach had a lot of new ideas and it took a while for the juniors and sophomores to adjust. There was no pro- blem adjusting to a new coach for the freshmen because it was all new to them. I think that practices will go smoother next year and we will have a better year. Prior to coming to Otterbein, Ken- nedy coached at Baldwin-Wallace. Ken- nedy said Otterbein has much more talent than Baldwin-Wallace and should be better next year. - Patti Fott Lori Povisil scores two more!

' Once in the southern climate, students simply claim their territory with bright towels and bottles of suntan lotion.

You just know you're in Florida with the sand and the ocean. You are never in class and can party all the time in the sunshine, said Heckmann.

Sun Worshipper Becky Hess said, There was no better way I would have rather spent the afternoons than sitting on the beach at Alum Creek admiring the view! More students are found taking Brewery Tours and Renie's Runs during the last 10 weeks of school. And, this year the hot spot was High Street's Newport on Thursday nights. The Newport was always a lot of fun because there was always someone you knew there. It was like Otterbein Night on Thursdays, said Dawn Calder. Spring term is the term to play, as most professors realize, and they have learned to deal with students being more boisterous. At the end of the school year, some profs have been known to give into students' spring fever and hold classes outside. Be it sunning, drinking or dancing, O.

What goes on at a party where everyone is a theatre weird? A friend tells me not to drink anything because theatre weirds put drugs in the food and drink. Someone else tells me not to be alone with the tall blond Kguy because he attacks girls ever since he played the part of a rapist. And my mother tells me not to say anything about the show because whatever I say might be taken the wrong way -- actors are so sentimental, What a shock! I'm sitting at Dean Van and Dr. Day's house in front of a cozy campfire, eating fried chicken and potato salad, and the strongest drink I see is a Diet Coke. Something must be wrong. The blond guy is actually quite nice and he tells the funniest stories about his summer vaca- tion in Texas. As for talk about the show, that's what the party's for, everyone talks, jokes, compliments, relives My Fair Lady. 96 My Fair Lady The first thing I notice is that most of the people I see were not in the performance the night before. My date explains that a big part of any cast is the technical crew, who works to create the beautiful costumes, intricate sets, and all the other extra parts of a show that rarely get applause. The tech crew put in many long hours to complete their work in five weeks. After my friend points out the tech crew, he introduces me to a few singers in the 27-member chorus.

Q Shrine Musical Depends on Orchestra In the Pits with the orchestra Being a Liberal Arts school, Otterbein College strives to give every student a well-rounded educational experience. Part of that well-rounded education :omes from cultural events held on cam- pus throughout the year, For example, students are admitted free to all theatre productions, but some never attend events such as the Spring Musical. Other students see only part of a show like t'My Fair Lady - the bottom half? Members of the pit orchestra starr work on a musical at approximately the same time as cast members. This year the orchestra prepared in four weeks plus a week of dress rehearsals with the stage performers. The orchestra was conducted ay Dr. Kenneth Kleszynski, affec- tionately known as Dr. K. Sherri Puder- oaugh a senior who has been involved with four spring musicals at Otterbein, stressed the importance of the conductor. He's integral to the musical, it wouldn't be a musical without him. The flippenr almofl mme bang at my bead, and I wezm't even on ftezge! - Karen Slade The week before the show started, the orchestra moved from Battelle to Cowan Hall for dress rehearsals. Players had to adjust to a pit that's cramped and dark, all you can see are feet and skirt hems! The cast of the show called the orchestra the best audience in the world because it always laughed at the lines, no matter how long the rehearsals went. Lori Warren commented about working with the ac- tors, We began to feel like a part of the show after a week at dress rehearsals and repeating Get Me to the Church on Time what seemed like 50,000 times. Obviously, the orchestra was as vital a part of the musical as were Chris Cox lEliza Doolittlel and Tim Gregory lProfessor Higginsb. Karen Slade, who played the entire percussion section almost became an even bigger part of the show when Eliza threw Higgins' slippers: The slippers almost came bang at my head, and I wasn't even on stage! exclaimed Slade.

But even traditions change. For Opus Zero, the group and the show change yearly. What's new about Opus Zero 1986? To start with, the group has a new direc- tor, Cynthia Bacon. Bacon brought to Opus Zero a fresh outlook toward show choirs, which rapidly changed the membership, format, and experience of the choir and its show. Bacon said that there are two movements in show choirs now. The amusement park type show incor- porates pop, country, broadway, and often, jazz music into one concert. She feels these shows lack artistic merit and rely more upon show techniques. The second trend is toward the musical variety show, which she said, has more cohesiveness because a theme and a style 100 PizzazzfOpus Zero tie the show together. It is more than just a concert, said Bacon. She believes that many Broadway It if more than jufl cz conrertfl - Cynthia Bacon musicals are headed in the same direc- tion. Thus, she hopes her students will be well-prepared when they finish Otterbein. Opus Zero 1986 has two new choreographers, although only one is really new to Opus. jean-Ann Marshall- Clark, dance instructor, devoted hours of energy to the routines. According to Marshall-Clark, theater dance is usuallyf frontal, the performers face the audiencgl and use movements that appear Hflatf? She then wanted to add a third, spatialll dimension to the dances traditionallyil used to help them make their dance: more interesting. l Also choreographing for the group is 198 5' Otterbein graduate, Davidl' DeCooman. As a member of Opus Zero, DeCooman often choreographed dancesi for the Pizzazz show. The music andl dance departments at Otrerbein liked hisw work enough to ask him to stay on. .J ' 1 This year Opus is young. Most of thel students are freshmen and only a few upfi perclassmen had participated in Opusi Zero before. This group points Opllil Zero toward the future. .. . - jennifer Elledgel 1 4.

The play, performed in the Campus Center Arena Theatre, dealt with the subject of rape and received stunning reviews. Talented Otterbein students cap- tivated the audience for eight perfor- mances. The difficult lead roles were played by H. Todd Freeman, as Raul, and Nancy Fox, as Marjorie. Marjorie's roommates, Terry and Patricia, were played by Liana Peters and Jodie Silk. The play's subject, the attempted rape of Marjorie Qlioxb by Raul CFreemanJ brought forth mixed emotions from the audience members.

By the end of the production, one audience member said, I felt drained and, in an odd sort of way entertained, just for the sheer fact that I had to think about and question a very personal issue. Directing the students were Suzanne Blackburn, and fight choreographer, jef- ferson Cronin. Also contributing to the production were the behind-the-scenes people who added all the finishing touches to William Mautrosimone's play. Fox said, I've grown a lot through the show. She claimed the role had taught her expertise theatrically in how not to lose control when dealing with such a potent issue. Although some viewers took offense at the harsh language and subject matter, the majority of the feedback was positive. The Theatre Department could once again take pride in putting on a dif- ficult production. -jolene Thompson --IDG.. i ',, W -cs 8 af fn, Q73 X' s .,,'k by .

This year the week proved to be one of the most suc- cessful ever, with participation at an all- time high, said coordinator, Steve Mar- tin, He also claimed that a perfect theme for the week would have been records were meant to be broken. Breaking records certainly happened during the week when 455 Otterbein students and faculty gathered to line Center Street to create the worlds longest kickline. The kickers performed to the tune One from A Chorus Line and Otterbein has now earned a spot in the Guinneff Book of World Records by adding over 100 people to the old record. A new event emerged, the Greek god and goddess pageant which will become an Otterbein tradition. Crowned to reign over the week's ac- tivities during this rowdy opening event werejondas 'iDollar Bill Riley and Ar- butie Cutie Angela Doerres. To achieve their crowns the contestants competed in It way fun having my own 'god 'for cz week! - Angela Doerrext slightly twisted pageant-like events such as a talent competition, a toga parade, a nerveshattering question and answer ses- sion and evening wear. Organizer Chris Bennett claimed that the pageant was to add a little something different to Greek Week. The goddess, Angela Doerres, claimed that it was fun having my own 'god' for a week! Record-breaking participation oc- curred in the talent show of the week, Harmony Night, with 17 acts taking to the stage. The winner in the canned music division was a rendition of the Superbowl Shuffle performed by Pi Kappa Phi and tops in the live music division went to the Sphinx Razz Band. A barbershop quartet named Yesteryear entertained the packed room, and so did the many student dancing, singing and comedy acts. The week culminated in the ever- popular Greek Olympics and the Greek Agora.

One of the best forms of relaxation is escaping campus, and what better way than to take a date along on the trip? This year many of the Greeks made their weekend just a little bit unusual. Sphinx tried something a little dif- ferent with a Riverboat Cruise in Cincin- nati. Kings embarked on an exciting, splashing white water rafting trip, described by Susan Gaskell as, the most fun I've had in my entire life. Two of the sororities also tried something new. Theta Nu had a picnic and a day of fun at Old Man's Cave, and TEM travelled north for a day of rides and thrills at Cedar Point, which Tem- merjessicajennings described as hot!

JON DA went to Lake Hope for a day of fun in the sun, and Zeta Phi camped for two days. Taking to the woods for the sororities were the Owls, who went to Lake Cowan, and EKT ar- rived at Burr Oak after the formal coed, held the night before at La Scala's Italian Restaurant. This year the typical souvenirs brought home from the coeds were towels, cups and JAMS sporting Greek letters to hold memories of a fun-filled weekend for all. - jolene Thompson fx We r W , ,,.,,,:-.

'ir NUM 1:4 is Hunger and Poverty Found at Otterbein l.S. Festival explores the Third World Nations It's hard for most of Otterbein's predominantly white, middle class students to comprehend what life must be like in a Third World nation. This spring's Integrative Studies Festival, The Third World: Inside and Out, helped bring home the tribula- tions and tragedies that plague the poverty-stricken portions of the world. The festival opened with an academic convocation led by Curtis C. Cutter, a visiting Woodrow Wilson Fellow. Cut- ter's speech appealed to students' awareness of the conditions in the Third World nations and to their duty as world citizens. No nation is unto itself an island. It is silly for us to think we can be prosperous in a sea of misery, said Cutter. Susan Klopp, co-chairperson of the 112 l.S, Festival festival with Dr. Albert Lovejoy, said of Cutter, I was very impressed by him. Klopp said, By and large, people No nation if zmio ilfefan iflaznd. - Czzrtir Cutter were excited to have an outside person come in, but I hope that didn't distract from the solid contributions made by our own faculty and staff. A Third World dinner was held in the Campus Center for 20-25 students, faculty, and staff. The meal was de- signed to simulate the difference between abundance and need throughout the world. The fortunates of the Western World were seated around a large cloth-covered, candlelit table full of food, while at a nearby table, people crowded around a single bowl of rice and a glass of water. ' Klopp said she was happy with the festival's attendance. Working with the faculty and staff was a source of great satisfaction. Things held together and connections were evident, said Klopp. -Jeannine Seitz I 1 1 I ll I 1 l I OPPOSITE PAGE: Curtis Cutter speaks to an 1.5. class about his views on Third World Nations.

Baseball team breaks .500 for season Baseball is one of my favorite Otter- bein sports, but that's only because I know the players and think the uniforms The key to returning to the playoff next Jeafon will be the development of the pitching. Jtajf - Captain Bi!! Moler are adorable. This year the Cards didn't have the championship season they were hoping to, but as always, the games were exciting and entertaining for us loyal baseball fans. Senior captain Bill Moler commented on the season, I was disappointed that we didn't make the OAC playoffs, and the key to returning to the playoffs next season will be the development of our pitching staff. He added, In graduating only five seniors, we should be improved both offensively and defen- sively next year. First baseman Howard Chambers and shortstop Ron Plunckett were both nam- ed to the second team of the All-OAC baseball team, while left fielder, Dale Edwards was an honorable mention selection. Chambers, who led the league .1-E ?gi,g I I O . E ' u X ca AN .1 ss.. J in home runs, was voted the most valuable player by his teammates. Chambers will also serve as the 1987 team captain. The Cardinals ended the season with a 20-18 record overall and a 4th place tie in the OAC. An inexperienced pitching staff can be blamed for the low con- ference standing as the team led most of its opponents in hitting and scoring throughout the season. Regardless of the record, fans enjoyed the Saturday afternoons in the sun at the baseball field for a double header! - Vicki Mabry 4' t ire-,gifi 'f ':,3g5,:,.5 , :Y 'fi-wig, ,. ' 1?f2f'5f-f-.

This was Mauro's first season as head coach and it turned out quite successfully. Representing Otterbein at the NCAA division III track and field champion- ships were senior, co-captains, Scott Alpeter and Pat Bennett, junior, Steve McConaghy, sophomore, Tom Schnurr, and freshman, Rick Merola. Coach Mauro expressed his confidence in the qualifiers before the meet, All my guys can reach the top eight, he said. The NCAA Division III Champion- ships were held at Lacrosse, Wisconsin, I I6 Men's Track Season May 21-24. Only the top eight finishers qualify for championship finals. Mc- Conaghy finished 15th out of 26 runners in the 400 Intermediate Hurdles and All my guyr can reach the top eight. - Coach Phil Mauro Bennett finished 9th out of 16 in the 200 meter, thus, neither qualified for the final round. Freshman Rick Merola scored 6,370 points in the decathlon, ranking him 10th in the nation. Alpeter and Schnurr both earned All-American Status after their meet at Lacrosse. Alpeter finished 3rd in the nation after running a time of 9 min. 2.41 sec. in the 3,000 meter Steeple chase. Schnurr ranked highest for Otterbein. He finished the 10,000 meter run in 30 minutes 13.15 seconds, ranking him 2nd in the na- tion. Both Alpeter and Schnurr set new school records. Nor all of Mauro's guys finished in the top eight, but Otterbein had a fine showing at Nationals, qualifying five, naming three Champions, and crown- ing two All-Americans. - Vicki Mabry - ' ... , ' .

Disappointing Season for Cardinal Netters Men's tennis team finishes fifth in OAC Championship The men's tennis team had a disap- pointing season with a record of five wins and eight losses. The team returned only three 'veteran players, senior Daniel Mor- ris, junior Rob Gagnon, and sophomore Scott Hubbard. The poor record was mainly due to the lack of experience of the young team. The team faced many strong op- ponents this season, causing very close matches for many players. We just weren't very good at winning close matches this year, said Coach Tom Nelson. The difficulty with close matches hindered the team in the OAC tourna- ment also. The team sent three singles players, Morris, Hubbard, and jim Fisher, and one doubles team, Morris and jeff Smoot into semifinal play, but We had n lot of godly that we wanted to reach, but we fell Jbort in the end. - Daniel Morrir none brought home trophies. Number one singles and doubles player Morris commented on the poor season: It's the worst season and most disappointing record since I've been here. We had a lot of goals that we wanted to reach, but we fell short in the end. Morris is the only player the team loses this year. Nelson looks forward to next year's season with a team that has earned valuable experience by playing such a tough season. - Vicki Mabry Men's Tennis Season l 19 Golf Discovered at Otterbein!

With a record of this standing, it might be assumed that the team was in- experienced or untalented. This is not true. Rhonda Scharf, who played shortstop for the Lady Cards, was named to the second team of the All-GAC softball team. The team members are voted on by the conference coaches. Scharf led the conference in stolen bases. Lori Woods, who played outfield this season, was named to the Academic All- OAC softball team, and teammates Kandi Kennedy and Jeannine Ruh were named to the honorable mention academic All-OAC squad. We jar! dia'n't play team ball. - Kandi Kennedy Senior catcher Beth Neace batted third best in the conference and was sec- ond to Scharf in stolen bases. Terri Shaver, a sophomore pitcher, led the conference in strikeouts. The team, obviously, had talented players, but was plagued by personality conflicts with the new coach, Terri Walter, Kennedy explains, We fthe teamb just didn't relate well with the coach and it affected our team playing. She added, We had some really talented individuals, but we just didn't play team ball. The team looks to next year's season to improve their record, as both team and coach will be more experienced. - Vicki Mabry Zak .ls 1-rf . A 2 . af .. 341. '- w . -.

All of the women tracksters made a good showing in the championships, with junior Mary Bravard leading and being named Outstanding Track Athlete in the OAC. Bravard captured third place in the 10,000 meter run. All of Bravard's times proved to be college record-breakers. Also shining in this final competition were sophomore Janine Martin, placing third in the high jump, sophomore Don- na Peters, finishing third in the 4000 meter hurdles, and senior Candee Mor- ris, achieving a second-place title in the shot put. The future is very bright for the up and coming OC Women Trackers as they look forward to an even more suc- cessful season next year.

Fire alarms rousted students at 2 a.m. and an endless invasion of dust balls cropped up under furniture. Despite the discomforts of communal living, junior Molly O'Reilly likes Hanby Hall for the simple pleasures: peace and quiet. According to O'Reilly, upperclassmen get along better than freshmen. It's the friendliest dorm I have ever lived in. I have made In some respects Hanby Hall is more comfortable than home said O'Reil1y. I'd rather share a bathroom with 50 peo- ple than with my brother and sister. While life in Hanby Hall may not have been the Ritz, it wasn't totally the pits either. Sophomore Micki Glassburn, who lived in King Hall last year, said Hanby was definitely a step up. She said King was falling apart. Hanby is better made. I don't care that it looks 148 Hanby Hall modern just as long as the wiring is modern, said Glassbutn. Other advantages to living in Hanby Hall this year included the success of the facility incentive fund. The balance of moneyi left in the fund donated by the college to deduct damages was I used to buy luxuries for the dorm. Residents voted to use their balance for a microwave in the lounge and an exercisell bike to be used in the laundry room. : Hall Councils annual Un-birthday during the spring also, l eased the mid-term doldrums. Presents from home and cakel'1 were a festive diversion for bookweary and homesick students. - jeannine Seitz:,l r ' ifzi, . , nf HI SR.-I--'IJNESQ-cbUQ,'i iw -.1 im.

Hanby Hall 149 King Hall Family Dorm life makes close friends A mixture of freshmen and upperclassmen lived in King Hall and unity among the residents was the theme behind all hall programs. Programs held included pizza par- ties during exam week as a study break, a Hallo- ween party, a Valentine's Day party when parents were asked to send presents, and balloons on the door to brighten everyone's day. Hall Council President Andrea Strom said, Hall Council tried to increase people's feelings about King Hall. It's a real family-like atmosphere here. 'I'hat's probably one of the reasons why every time we have room pick, more and more people want to live here. Strom, a sophomore, is living in King Hall for her second year. Each hall has an incentive fund from which the residents can buy something for their hall. Assistant Hall Director Ruth Wfaddell said, Hall Council decided to buy either an ice machine or a VCR. The residents voted and the hall got a VCR. The VCR was used to show movies that either Hall Council or the residents rented and then showed in the lounge. Some of the movies shown were Mask, Wimess, Beverly Hills Cop, and Micki 8: Maude. Strom said, I'm really pleased with the purchase of the VCR.

Mayne Hall is an adventure that will not soon be forgotten by the residents. Walking through the front door is a challenge in itself because of the never ending rush of men coming and going. The lounge of Mayne Hall is the hub of activity for this residence. There are always many things going on at once. In one corner you might see and heat the television, most prob- ably tuned to the popular MTV. Another situation you might see would be couples talking together on the worn but comfortable furniture.

The Triad is set among green lawns and sun decks which residents put to good use for sunning or midnight volleyball games come spring term. Four-year Triad resident Rhonda LeRoy said of living in the Triad, I like living back in the Triad because you get to know everyone. People are always coming in our 'soc' just to sit and talk. The single floor layout of most of the dorms in the Triad can be credited for the openness felt by its residents.

Upperclass women are found in Engle Hall. The main attraction of the Triad, however, is Garst Hall. For two years Garst has been the only coed dorm on campus, housing both male and female upperclass students. Garst residents share social floors and lounge areas, while sleeping floors still remain traditionally all-male and all-female. The people are what make any dorm more like a home, and the people of the Triad have given it the homey reputation it has become known for. - Vicki Mabry Triad 155 English Department Improves Faculty recruits quality students When you combine the years the seven faculty members of the English Department have been teaching, you get 77 years of experience. This experience offers students teachers who understand the college and its programs. The chairman of the department, james Bailey, enjoys the continuity this amount of experience gives the English Department. Students have been well recruited to fit into Otterbein pro- grams. The reverse is true too - Otterbein has added new ma- jors to give the students what they want. The past couple of classes have produced a markedly im- proved quality of l-l' students majoring f'Mo.rz of all, I 'el lilee the in English, AS a ftuelent to be able to look back result it was at their years' at Otterbein and Hefessafy f0f an my, 'that wat the bert time of honors Program to my hp., H be established as , well as beefing up -Jamal Bulky scholarship pro- 1-- grams to accom- modate these students. English majors now comprise approximately five percent of the total student population. Many more students, however, are using a minor in this area to complement their major in something else. According to Bailey most students choose Otterbein because of its reputation not because of the various programs offered. Students enjoy the small town atmosphere and the connec- tion of church and school. Many students attend Otterbein because someone else in their family graduated from here. Otterbein offers a good, solid degree from a good school which is what students coming here expect. Bailey said, Most of all, I'd like the student to be able to look back at their years at Otterbein and say, 'that was the best time of my life.' Hopefully, they'll remember their teachers affectionately and remember that teachers do like for students to return and visit. -- Barbara Weber 156 Faculty ' X N H :ss cf, eg 'I U :iii Q :Vigil .1 E I 5 .

According to john Ludlum, department chairman, the effectiveness with students is what counts. The speech department has made a commitment to ac- tivities for the students. These activities allow for hands-on ex- perience in practical areas involving radio, television debate and public relations. The department has experienced many changes this past year. Two majors, public relations and business communica- tion, have been added. ' According to Ludlum, the class TMJ if the clan mor!

This is the class - most responsible for growth in professionalism, said Ludlum. This class has been exceptional in leadership, especially in radio and television. Speech majors choose Otterbein for practical reasons. That is, students get valuable hands-on experience during all four years at Otterbein, which is not the case at many other universities. The College's commitment to giving students as much practical experience as possible allows speech majors to enter future jobs with a sure sense of their own abilities. According to Ludlum, research indicates that a liberal arts degree is becoming increasingly important to employers. Otter- bein offers students the best of both worlds, according to Ludlum. Local employers frequently call wanting to know if there will be a certain type of individual available in the next graduating class. Ludlum hopes the class of '86 will remember their Otter- bein experience as a time that was enjoyable. It is Ludlum's hope that each student can look back in ten years and say the college did everything it possibly could have done for me. Ot- terbein cared. - Barbara Weber Faculty I 59 Topic Old, but Interesting Faculty looks for new approch James Recob, professor of religion and philosophy, is also the department chairman of the area. He came to Otterbein in 1959. The philosophy department consists of four instructors with 48 years of experience between them. Recob can't say that the material taught in his department changes much, after all, much of it dates back to the llth cen- tury. However, he feels that instructors in the department con- stantly seek new ways to approach students because students have a way of changing. For instance, he finds that adult degree students respond more through life experiences and respond differently to the subject matter than most of the t r a d i t i 0 n a l 1-l' TT students. Recob feels that A time when they really due to the honors grew up. program and a ..-5147726-fReC'0b better scholarship program, the academic level has been on the rise during the past few years here at Otterbein. He has noticed however, an ap- parent lessened interest in social careers, teaching and the ministry, among Otterbein students compared to past graduating classes. Traditionally, however, Otterbein has not seemed to get overly fired up about social issues. Recob feels that a diploma from Otterbein says many positive things for a graduate. Students typically have a good record of getting jobs soon after graduation. As students pick up their yearbook ten years from now, Recob wants students to remember this as a time when they really grew up, became independent, and found themselves ready to go out into the real world. - Barbara Weber l6O Faculty N-Q1 .,,-H MW ,.- , .Ae V.

VS Greeks battle for Ugliest Bartender honors Each sorority and fraternity is required by the college to perform a service project each term. Often the Greeks dread doing these projects because they end up stuff- ing envelopes for Admissions, collecting money door-to-door for UNICEF, or worse yet, donating three cans of corn per member in a food drive. However, this winter the members of Eta Phi Mu fraternity and Epsilon Kappa Tau sorori- ty came up with a service project that was both worthwhile and fun. The members of these Greek organizations were invited to be celebrity bartenders in the Ugly Bartender Contest that benefits the Multiple Sclerosis Society. Four- member teams from each group were put behind the bar at Flakey jakes restaurant. The object of the contest was to collect as many tips as possible, with the money going to the M. S. Society. Participants for the jonda team were jeff Leohner, Danny Morris, jerry Fairchild, Fm not ture zf I really want xto be known ar the Uglieft Bartender in Colunzbuf. - Dawn Calder and Ralph Scott, while participants for EKT were Vicki Mabry, Susie Brown, Joanna Fabian, and Dawn Calder. Flakey jakes helped organize the charity program and encouraged student par- ticipation by offering food and drink specials to students wearing Greek letters or Otterbein apparel. MABRY Although the contest represented jon- da and EKT, many other groups had members there wearing their letters. jon- da President jeff Leohner was en- thusiastic about the project because it brought all the Greek organizations together. The Greeks at Otterbein need to be more unified in all that they do, so that the entire Greek system will be more successful. Events such as this could be the start of a more unified Greek system. The contestants could do whatever they wanted to gain tips, so a few bartenders wore outlandish costumes to further their cause with the customers. Fabian and Brown tended bar as punk rockers, while Scott worked the bar as the late Elvis Presley. The contest was well-attended, O. C. students contributed to the cause, and everyone had a good time. When the results were tallied, the bartenders had collected over S100 for the Multiple Sclerosis Society, and Ugliest Bartenders honors went to the team from Epsilon Kappa Tau. Team member Calder com- mented, 'Tm not sure if I really want to be known as the Ugliest Bartender in Columbus, but it was fun being behind the bar and working for a good cause. - Vicki Mabry The Meats celebrate Dollar's win at the Greek Pageant!

I was really please with our results, said active chapter president Scott Cavanagh, We had nine pledges, and considering we had only 14 actives to rush, we were pretty successful. Highlights of the year included win- ning the highest grade point award for winter term, the annual Pi Sig Islamic Pig Roast, and receiving the Greek Week Vampire Award for having the most actives participate in the Blood- mobile. Twenty-two of twenty-three Bull actives participated.

Brent DeVore to the college in 1984. In 1985, Theta Nu decided to hold another tea, but this time with a different theme. Rae Lynn justice, alum- nae relations coordinator, thought up the idea for the theme. The purpose of this year's tea was to allow alumnae to meet with and talk with the president, justice said. Approximately 30 alumnae were in- vited to the tea which was held before a regular meeting. None of the alumnae present had met the president and all were impressed by the way he listened to the concerns that were expressed and answered the alumnae's questions. Topics that were discussed included hazing, rush, renting from the college, and the possibility of a unified Greek bookkeeping system. The topics were not restricted to Greek life. The food service, college housing and classes were also discussed. justice said, The evening was an in- formative one. The sisters felt free to ex- press their opinions and concerns. I would like to see this tea become a yearly tradition for both the active chapter and the alumnae chapter. - Patti Fort Brenda Eberly performs in the talent portion of the Greek Pageant.

They got their own house and con- tinued the trend to dry rush parties. The men of Kings joined several other organizations moving into new houses this year. After meeting in campus buildings last year, they were able to move into a house on Park Street. It is nice to have our own place to meet and socialize, said Mike Maxwell, 85-86 chapter president. It is a lot better than meeting in the lounges of residence halls. In addition to moving into a new house, they joined the campus and na- tional trend for dry rush parties. It may have been cold outside, but inside the warm Sheraton Inn North Athletic Club, a beach party was in full swing. People were entertained with swimming, volleyball and other beach party features, along with plenty of donated non- alcoholic beverages.

They got the largest pledge class on campus this year. Basically, a fraternity survives on the size and quality of their active chapter, said Mark Puskarich, 85-86 chapter president. This year we got 24 pledges, but it took a lot of effort on everyone's part. To get a good pledge class takes more than just a good rush party. It took in- dividual efforts by Zeta Phi members who went out and became friends with freshmen and independents. That effort was evident when preference signing was over, and they had 24 names on their list. It was a great reward to us all to know that we did our job right with rush this year, Puskarich said. This brings our total membership up to over 60 men, making us the biggest fraternity on campus. - Garth Walker 176 Zeta Phi Fraremiry .X............

With no alcohol, we had to find some other ways to keep people enter- tained, said Garth Walker, chapter president. We used a couple of dif- ferent things and based it around a Playboy Casino theme.

Pi Kappa Phi Fratemity 185 ditor Misses Cue Like most schools, Otterbein provides students with extra- curricular activities through various clubs and organizations. These activities range in variety from operating a radio air shift to riding in equine competitions to planning campus events. The variety of organizations found at Otterbein exemplifies the many different types of students found on campus. Lots of time and effort goes into making these clubs and interest groups as successful as they have become. The people involved with these clubs and organizations deserve much credit for all of their time and hard work. Unfortunately, not all of the clubs and organizations found at Otterbein this year will be found in the '86 Sibyl. I extend my most sincere apologies to the Otterbein community for this mishap. I can only blame a photographer with a lack of time and an editor with a lack of responsibility for this oversight. Once again, I apologize for the group photos not being taken, and I can only hope that next year's Sibyl staff will not repeat my mistake.
