We will endeavor fo reporf pasl' evenfs, S.G.A.'s pre- senf sfafus and upcoming evenfs in all of our fufure reports fo you, fhe sfudenf. On fhe morning of Sepfember 20, a leadership break- fasf was held for all aspiring fufure governmenf representa- fives. Alfhough invifafions were senf fo cerfain sfudenfs, any sfudenf who showed an inferesf in Sfudenf Governmenf was welcome fo affend. The evenf was an oufsfanding success. Many freshmen, invifed and ofherwise, affended. A reasonable number of pefifions for office were received on fhe firsf day. More are expecfed. Ocfober 6'rh will be fhe deadline for pefifions in fhe -Sfudenf Services office. Ocfober Ilfh will be fhe dafe sef for a candidafe as- sembly in which fhe sfudenf body can hear fhe reasons why these freshmen would like fo represienf fhe sfudenfs inferesfs. lf will nof in any way be mandafory for sfudenfs fo affend fhis assembly. On fhaf evening fhere will be a candidafe dinner wifh Dr. Gibson. Af fhis dinner fufure and presenf problems of fhe Sfudenf Governmenf will be discussed wifh fhe candidafes. Change is fhe key fo fhe fufure for Sfudenf Govern- menf. As we move fo fhe new campus drasfic changes are going fo occur and as fhey do, S.G.A. musf change also. Wifh fhe help of concerned sfudenfs we will adiusf fo fhe new problems fhaf will, and even now, are arising. lf you as a sfudenf are concerned or are unhappy wifh fhe workings of 'rhe Sfudenf Government as a whole, do yourself and your friends a favor. Run for sfudenf senafe. There is an incenfive scholarship for fhaf sfudenf fhaf works hardiesf fo furfher Sfudenf Governmenf. lf change is needed, af leasf fry fo make fhaf change. Gef involved, you've nofhing fo lose. We of fhe Sfudenf Governmenf and some of fhe admin- isfrafive people feel fhaf now is fhe fime for a shiff of pur- pose in fhe Sfudenf Governmenf. With fhe increasing sfudenf body, fhe needs of fhe sfudenfs are rising. Such problems as housing, insurance, sfudenf loans and general sfudenf wel- fare musf be dealf with immediately. Hopefully, wifh fhe adoption of a new plan soon, fhe Sfudenf Governmenfs role as a social organizafion will end. Such a plan would include fhe immediafe involvemenf of fhe Sfudenf Life Commiffee info fhe social aspecfs of sfudenf acfivifies. Wifh fhe involvemenf of the .Sfudenf Life Commiffee in sfudenf affairs, more power and an increased member- ship should be given if. All fhe candidates who lose in fhe upcoming elecfion, will in facf, noi' be losers a'l' all. We hope fhaf all of fhem will be immediafely involved in fhe Sfudenf Life Commiffeie. To sfrengfhen S.G.A.'s new role on campus, we have infroduced a new fype of insurance plan for fhe sfudenfs. lfs' fhie Blue Cross, Blue Shield plan fhaf you are probably aware of. lf has fhe besf coverage for fhe cheapesf price yef. We would recommend all sfudenfs go fo fhe Sfudienf Services office and receive addifional informafion. Several have already signed up. On fhe drawing board is a new sfudenf loan plan. By fhe end of fhis semesfer, we hope fo have a plan by which sfudenfs may fake loans of higher amounfs, wifh less inferesf and larger paymenf periods. lf mighf be well fo remember S.G.A. loans when you are in a pinch. However, SGA loans arte sfill available af regular rafes. There are several upcoming evenfs scheduled for fhe sfudenf body in fhe nexf few we-eks. On Ocfober I3fh, Twisf- ed Nerve , an excellenf fhriller, will be shown af a cosf of only 50 cenfs per sfudenf. Somefime during fhe lasf week of Ocfober, fhere will be a Halloween parfy. One suggesfion 29 has been fo have a free roller skafing parfy. This is only fen- fafive. From November 6-II is Sadie Hawkins week and on November ll is a hay-rack ride, free fo all sfuclenfs. This is only a small parf of the acfivifies we have planned before fhe break. ln conclusion, we of fhe Sfudenf Governmenf would like fo fhank all fhe fremendous people who have supported us by affending all of our happenings thus far. His and will be our pleasure. SGA Presidenf, Phil Thornfon. 'Charlie Brown' sefs Ocf. I9-20 dafes 'tYou're A Good Man, Charlie Brown is a step closer to real- ty.

Phofographer-Barry Dies - l Red means slop Being somewhal of a newcomer lo Liberal one of lhe firsl lhings I noliced was lhe bad condilion of lhe local roads, bolh on lhe residenlial roads and lhe highways. Bul I would like lo discuss more specifically on-e inlerseclion lhal is ex- lremely hazardous. Nol loo long ago I was driving wesl on Eighlh Sl. and came lo lhe inlerseclion of Eighlh and Kansas. Al lhis in- lerseclion on lhe Norlheasl corner is where lhe Washinglon Elemenlary School is localed. Also localed al lhis inlersec- lion are a sel of four flashing lighls. These lighls cluring lhe summer blink red lo Eighlh Sl. and yellow lo Kansas. How- ever, once school relurns lo session, lhese blinking Iighls relurn lo lhe regular swilching slop Iighls during inlervals on cerlain weekdays. Having lived here for aboul lhree monlhs I was used lo slopping on Eighlh Sl. lo gel on Kansas. One day, however, I noliced as I slopped lhal lwo cars on Kansas had slopped also. Il look only several seconds for me lo realize lhal lhe Iighls were working and il was showing green in my direc- lion. This mighl seem funny al firsl bul lwice aflerward while I was slopped al lhis inlerseclion l've seen people run lhe red Iighl on Kansas mainly because lhey were so used lo il blinking lhe righl-of-way lo lhem lhal lhey didn'l pay any allenlion coming up lo lhe inlerseclion. This poses some bad problems. As a maller of facl I was almosl in an acci- denl al lhis same corner. I was once again lraveling wesl on Eighlh Sl. as lh-e lighl changed green: looking before I slarled oul inlo lhe inlerseclion I noliced lhal nol loo far down Kansas a pick-up lruck was coming al aboul 25 lo 30 mph. Playing il cons-ervalive I wailed and lhe lruck sped on lhrough lhe inlerseclion. If I hadn'l been walching as closely as I was, lhe lruck would have hil my car broadside causing whal would have been a greal deal of damage. Because of lhis confusing silualion, lhe lhreal of a ser- ious accidenl is exlremely high. The only course available is lo lel lhe lighl slay as a slop lighl lhe enlire year round, lo keep from confusing anyone wilh lhe new exisling conlin- uously changing silualion. Polilical year brings queslions Wasn'l il only a year or lwo ago lhal lhe I8-year-olds were d-emanding lhe righl lo vole? Now lhal righl is law. Bul look around and see for yourself how undeserving I8-year-olds are of lhis supposedly greal American privilege. They are jusl as lelhargic and apalhelic as lheir older Am- erican counlerparls. When il comes lo gelling involved in politics, il seems lhal mosl of us residenls of lhis place called lhe Uniled .Slales of America iusl don'l have lhe lime or lhe inclinalion. Here il is - a presidenlial eleclion year - and look al whal's happening al good old Seward Counly Communily College. The Young Democrals can'l gel more lhan lwo or lhree members and even lhe success-gorged Young Republi- cans have lrouble rounding up enough bodi-es lo make one of lheir meellngs look like more lhan a lhree's-a-crowd af- fair. lf whal is going on al Seward Counly Communily Col- lege is lypical of lhe prevalenl allilude lhroughoul lhis so called greal counlry of ours, one can, only surmise lhal we mosl surely deserve whalever we receive from lhe few who are inleresled enough lo make lheir ideas public. Perhaps lhe words of lhe lale poel, T. S. Eliol, are more lrue lhan we like lo lhink: Thal's lhe way lhe world ends, he wrole, Nol wilh a bang bul a whimper. Debalers in firsl lournamenl The debate squad from Seward County Community College com- peted in their first tournamen-t of the season this weekend at Gar- den City, placing tenth in over- all squad strength out of twenty- five schools. SCCJC placed over such schools as Wichita State Univer- sity, Lubbock Christian, North West Missouri State, and Phoe- nix. In individual events, Nikki Ble- vins won a finalist certificate for informative speaking, sec- ond year in a row. Dorsey Gen- try, Gloria Clay, Christina Hull, and Jim Reneau had good and excellent ratings in preliminary rounds of individual events. The debate team of Christine Hull and Dennis Reed had vic- tories over Kansas State Univer- sity, Lubbock Christian, Dodge City, and Hutchinson. The team of Gloria Clay and Dorsey Gentry had wins over Butler County, Coffeyville, and Hutchinson. This was the first tournament for debate amateurs Mike Bryan and Martin Sizemore. .According to debate coach, Gene Clark, they did very well with wins over Penn Valley, Kansas State, and New Mexico J-unior College. Clark was pleased with the tournament. We did 2501: bet- ter this year at Garden City than we did last year. In fact, our worst team had more wins than last year's best team.

The works of William Shakespeare wil be used to high- light many of the complexities encountered in these subjects. Seward Counly is unique college Seward Counly Communily College is unique in more ways lhan onie. The localion of lhe college, now in ils fourlh year of condu-cling classes, makes il accessible lo live slales. Anolher unique lealure of Seward Counly Communily College is ils ioinl degree program wilh lhe Liberal Area Vocational-Technical School. The schools will be nexl-door neighbors when lhe college moves lo ils new campus nexl fall, so board members and adminislralors of bolh insli- lulions gol logelher and agreed upon a program in which Vo-Tech sludenls cou-ld earn an Associale of Applied Science Degree in any of I8 major fields of sludy. The Vo-Tech slu- denls receive 42 hours of credil for lheir occupalional lrain- ing and complele anolher I8 hours of core courses from lhe communily college curriculum. ln lhis way, even Vo-Tech slu- denls can earn 60 hours and have a college degree lo show for lheir invesled lime and energy in schooling. . Seward Counly Communily College is also unique be- cause of lhree programs il offers in avialion, air lraffic con- lrol and dala processing. SCCJC offers lhe only air lraffic conlrol lraining cen- ler in lhe midweslern and soulhweslern Uniled Slales. ll is FAA approved and has ils own conlrol lower mock-up wilh complelely realislic simulaled air lraffic silualions for slu- denls lo gel praclical conlroller experienc-e. From lhe lwo- year air lraffic conlrol program, sludenls may go direclly inlo GS-7 lhrough GS-ll posilions wilh lhe federal govern- menl as qualified conlrollers. ln lhe school's avialion program, sludenls may complele lhe commercial pilol's license qualificalions and pass lheir examinalions wilhin a special lwo-year program. The privale license can be obtained in one year And lhe college has a Fransca ground lrainer for inslrumenlalion lraining Licensed pilols in lhe .Soulhweslern Kansas area oflen use the Frasca lrainer for logging lime for inslrumenl ralings and inslru- menl refresher sessions. Seward Counly Communily College, lhrough ils dala processing program, offers exlensive lraining for lhe person who wanls lo learn compuler languages, keypunch melhods, dala processing cenler operalions, programming lechniques and compuler science lheories and methodologies. ln one- year and lwo-year programs, SCCJC can give ils sludenls lhe foundalions for a successful career in any area of com- pulers or compuler lechnology. Also unique is lhe school's liberal arls curriculum. And lhe physical science division even fealures a geology field lrip lo localions in Kansas, Oklahoma and Colorado. And lhe college offers lhe G.E.D. program for sludenls in Liberal and surrounding lowns so more people can have lhe oppor- lu-nily lo complele high school and conlinue college sludies or employmenl opporlunilies. One of lhe mosl forward-looking faclors in SCCJC's uniqueness is lhe school's new grading policy in which no sludenl ever fails a course. The F grade was lhrown oul dur- ing lhe l97l-72 school lerm. Now, if a sludenl does nol meel lhe requiremenls for a course, he receives an X, which means he did nol gel credil for lhe course: however, lhere is no punilive measure, such as sublracling poinls from his successful grade average. So, lhe sludenl merely lakes lhe course again, il he wanls credil - or he may choose lo by- pass lhe course if il is nol required for his degree program. Mock eleclion lo be held There will be a mock ,presi- dential election held for the SCCJC student body and faculty on October 25, 1972, between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. This election will be sponsored by the American Government class of Mr. Mathias. A voting booth will be set up in the Student Union. 1 35 Brundidge beals Knoll lo lake pool championship The third annual SCCJC sin- gles Pool tournament is now in the past with Donnell Brundidge coming -up from the loser's brac- ket after losing his second game to J. Wooden, to beat Blaine Knott. With a field of 32 entries the tournament took almost three weeks to complete. The tournament was double elimin-ation with the separate games being arranged by the players at their own convenience, which accounted for some of the delay since several of the games were delayed because of players not being able to get their sche- dules to match. In the quarter finals in- the winner's bracket it was Blaine Knott beating Mike Williams, while in the loser'5 bracket it was Donnell Brundidge over G. Orm- iston. For the semi-final round it was the loser of the winner's bracket game, Mike Williams, against the winner of the loser's bracket game, Donnell Brun- didge. The semi-final round was close as Brundidge edged past Mike to go on to meet Blaine to deter- mine who would receive the tro- phy. The final round was also described as a real good one as Donnell beat Blaine to receive the first place trophy. Other entries in the match were C. Crawford, T. Hill, Mike Williams, B. Simmons, G. Ed- mission, D. Bailes, R. Thurman-, F. Rauoeh, D. Doll, D. Wagnor, R. Joslin, N. Volz, J. Johnson, A. Keller, G. Ormiston, J. Kan- ton, D. Carlile, C. Glenn, A. Scott, K. Andrews, J. Taylor, S.

Robert Busby, Director of Adult Education at Seward Coun- ty, has taken the Adult Basic program from its infancy to the point at which it now stands, serving more than 400 students in Liberal and nearby commun- ities. Primarily designed to assist people in completing their high school graduation equivalency, the Adult Basic program also serves in such specialized areas as the teaching of conversational English to Spanish-speaking in- dividual in the Liberal area. Another program which has been conducted successfully through the office of adult educa- tion at SCCJC is the class, How to Get a Job and Keep It, in- structed by Mrs. Odessa Lewis. According to Busby, the college is looking for ways to help adults in this locale in the pursuit of basic goals, such as more edu- cation, better jobs, more satis- faction in the attainment of new job skills, and the chance to grow within present occupations in salaries and responsibilities. Last year, Busby established and coordinated two General Ed- ucational Development College Studies programs for people who wanted to complete their high school education in Liberal. He also conducted satelite programs in Hugoton, Elkhart, Meade and Sublette. A total of 172 people in the coIlege's area were served by the Adult Basic Education program last year. This year, the program is al- ready underway in two sections Cday and eveningJ at Liberal, and at Hugoton and Elkhart. Liberal has 43 adults working toward high school completion, Hugoton has 15 and Elkhart has ll. An addition to Busby's pro- gram this year is a typing class for adults, now being conducted at Hugoton-. A similar class is be- ing set up for Elkhart. Other projects occupy the time of the Director of Adult Educa- tion. Last spring semester and during summer school, Busby set up and directed a program to teach conversational English to people who speak Spanish as their first language. He is now conducting a survey to deter- mine which colleges and univer- sities in the nation will accept credits earned at vocational-tech- nical schools toward require- m-ents for a bachelor's degree. This will help him to counsel stu- dents about their occupational and educational opportunities be- yond their high school equival- ency completion. A unique feature of the Adult Basic Education program at Se- ward County Community Col- lege Studies class in which stu- den-ts receive a complete refresh- er course over all of the subjects offered in required high school curriculums. When the student finishes College Studies, he takes his G.E.D. examination for his high school diploma and receives four hours of college credit for his success in the program, if he elects to ask for the college hours. This gives a student his high school diploma and the incentive to begin college. Busby has seen several students enter college here through the G.E.D. College Studies program and go on to get a degree. One of his former G.E.D. students recently gradu- ated from SCCJC with honors and went on to seek a bachelor's ,. l- . .. ,jf wa, , fr' f '- 1412 'W' .ig H. 3-M K la K .... g , .Q , Ltr: N .. .. . as ,.,, . , in ,.,. .

Republicans elect otticers The Collegiate Young Repub- licans have elected officers and have become involved in this year's election campaign. Officers are Marci Lee, pres- identg Terry Cloud, vice presi- den-tg and Esther Schawo, secre- tary-treasurer. The club has participated in a car caravan and the Republi- can barbecue. They are also plan- ning a membership drive. It will feature free spudnuts in the Stu- dent Union and a meeting with Bob Frey, Seward County At- torney, guest speaker. 37 fi, degree at a Kansas four-year college. According to Busby, his job is probably one of the most re- warding at the college. He gets to work with adults. He gets to see confidence and ambition re- kindled when older students sud- denly realize that the door to in- creased educational and voca- tional opportunity is open again when they felt that it might be closed forever. We've had students from the late teens to the late sixties in age, Busby commented. It's not the age that matters, though, it's the fact that they have an opportunity to get involved again and to continue growing. Spanish students Visit Mexico Septemer 22-five Spanish stu- dents from Seward County Com- munity Junior College and their instructor, Melissa M a s o n e r, went to Juarez, Mexico. The stu- dents left Friday afternoon for a two day culture study of the Spanish people and their way of life. The five students making the trip were: Vicki Gillespie, Max- ine Swearingen, Cheri Van Sickle, Mike Van Sickle and Bruce Ross. The two days of touring the city of Juarez included visits to: a glass factory, arts and craft buildings, typical restaurants, old and new market, city fair, a bull fight and museum.

Tennis Personnel Outlook: 1972 Coach Steve Lunt, currently starting his fourth year as coach of the varsity tennis team for SCCJC. He came from Kansas State Univer- sity and Fort Hays Kansas State College. Fall Meets This is the first fall that a schedule has been developed for the junior colleges in the western division of the Jayhawk Confer- ence. The fall program is result- ing from a combined effort of the tennis coaches at Hutchinson and Seward County Community College to develop interest in the sport at the junior college level. Schools competing this fall will incl-ude four-year colleges from Kansas and Oklahoma and junior colleges from Kansas, Ok- lahoma, and Texas. Team Personnel Barry Dies, Haysg Sophomoreg returning letterman. After a good first year, Barry is returning with the lesire to win this coming year. This last summer saw Barry competing in various open tournaments across the state of Kansas. His stroke execution has improved greatly over the previous year: he has the confidence and desire. Norman V ol z, Greensburgg Sophomore, returning letterman. Even though he had some dis- appointments his freshman year, Norman is a good tennis player. With the playing experience of last year, the additional summer practice, his game will snow the improvement needed. Steve Rinehart, Liberalg Freshman. I feel quite fortunate that Steve decided to attend SCCJC. Steve has the ability and potential to be one of the best tennis play- ers. He is a complete player and the strong competition of this fall and next spring should do ad- ditional wonders for him. Mike Weaver, Liberal: Freshman Mike is another individual with good potential. Mike had a rea- sonably good year at Liberal High School, but really began to concentrate on his tennis playing this last summer. He is looking forward to a good year. Allen Keller, Greensburgg Freshman. Allen is coming off a Greens- burg High School team which has won their league champion- ships for the past approximately 30 years. He is currently work- ing on developing an aggresive style of playing which is a ne- cessity on the junior college cir- cuit. Allen is another of the fine boys which SCCJC has been for- tunate to receive from Greens- burg. Jim Kanton, Greensburgg Sophomore: returning letterman. Jim gained much experience as a freshman on last year's squad. This year he will provide much needed depth to the squad. Mark Enns, Liberalg Freshman Mark is another of the Liberal High School graduates to contin- ue with the Saints. At present, I would have to consider Mark as a good, average player. He has excellent desire and wants to compete. He has a good chance of making one of the six spots on the squad. This will be the best all-around squad that the college has field- ed in the last four years. An in- teresting fact is that if this .par- ticular group of men had been- at the college four years ago, they could have won the state cham- pionship. How they will do this year is difficult to say. Compe- tition this fall will be extremely difficult. Also, the other junior colleges in the state have been doing a building program simi- lar to oursg as a result, all the other schools have gained strength. Yearbooks available Students who enrolled full- time both semesters last year are being asked to stop by room 322 at-Seward Coun-ty Commun- ity College and pick up their copy of the 1972 Trumpeteer, the college yearbook. Students who are unable to come by should mail their ad- dress and S1 for postage so the yearbook can be sent to them. New instructors This year at SCCC there are two new instructors: Mr. Ray Blum is the new in- structor in the data processing department at S.C.C.J.C. After graduating from Larned High School, Mr. Blum continued his education and graduated from Fort Hays State College receiv- ing his degree in business ad- ministration. Mr. Blum presently lives at 2100 Bellair Court with his wife, Grace, and their children, Eliza- beth Anne, 4, and Mary Anne, 8 months. Mr. Blum says, Liberal is a friendly and cooperative tonm, and I feels the new college will offer better advancement for its students. Mr. Frank Rausch is the new track coach and athletic instruc- tor at SCCC. After receiving his high school education at New Castle, Pennsylvania, Mr. Rausch continued his education at West- mar College and graduated from Eastern New Mexico University where he received his master's degree in physical education. Mr. Rausch has had past teaching and coaching experience at Rockwell High School in Rock- well City, Iowa. But this year is his first year of teaching at the community college level. Mr. Rausch presently lives on New York with his wife Jan, and their child, Shaelly, 4. Mr. Rausch says he likes Lib- eral, and feels the future looks good for Liberal and the new SCCC campus. College Choir The college choir numbers around 30 members tnis semes- ter. Preparations are being made to join the Community Chorus for presentations of the Christ- mas program in December. The -choir's music varies from Bach to rock. For the spring con- cert, the choir is working on a rock cantata, The Creation, a very interesting piece of this generation. Clarence Hooper, di- rector, hopes for a tour of area high schools either between se- mesters or in the early part of the spring semester. The music department has an exciting year ahead. The choir is open' to all college students for one hour's credit. There's al- ways room for more singers. In- terested? Contact Mr. Hooper. 38 Fashion stuclents begin tall tours The Fashion Merchandising class has started its series of tours of the different types of retail stores in Liberal. On September 15, the students were given a tour of J. C. Pen- stock room. According to Cheri Van Sickle, instruc- ney's Mrs. tor, the tour gave the students a better understanding of how merchandise is received and cared for, before it is displayed for purchasing by the customers. The tour covered such areas in business as shoplifting, record keeping, ticketing, price break merchandise, and stock clerk du- ties. The Fashion Merchandising class will be taking other tours similar to this one, with the pur- pose of getting acquainted with the different types of retailing stores in Liberal and how each of them differs from the other. Interpreters get set The Interpreters, a readers' theatre performing group, have a new look this year with cos- tumes being changed. First per- formance is October 22. Program topics this year are: The Cam- paign Trail, The World as View- ed by the Peanuts' Gang, and an annual Christmas presenta- tion. Two days for field trips to area high schools are planned for the fall semester. Any local group interested in using The Interpreters for a program should contact the spon- sor, Mrs. Lana Freeman, at the college. Alpha Eta Rho The first meeting of Alpha Eta Rho, SCCJC Aviation Club, was called to order by President Terry Lee, who welcomed all the new members to the club. For new business the club de- cided to have election of new officers next month. A commit- tee was selected to install the new members and new officers at the election. A motion was carried to have a money raising project Sept. 8 and 9, the project would be a car wash which would be held at the South Shamrock Gas Station. W E N..

Dennis Reed Democrafs Trounced On Wednesday, Ocfober 25, The American Governmenf class of Mr. Greg Mafhias held a mock elecfion. Given The resulTs of The November 8, l972, nafional elecfions, iT would appear ThaT The sTudenTs parTicipaTing in The mock elecfion were exfremely clairvoyanf in Terms of choosing The win- ning candidafes. However, when one compares issues five and six on The mock ballof wiTh The presidenfial candidaTes, inconsisfency is apparenT, especially since said issues were parT of George McGovern's plaTTom1.

Presenfly I feel like recifing fhe American's Creed of fhe Declarafion of Independence. Why? Because I feel sorf of lef down, nof by McGovern buf by fhe people I falk fo, people who insfrucf me, people I know, and people I don'f know. I even fhink l'haf's sfrange, buf fhaf parf of me I can'f change. Everyday 'lhe problems of life poinf al' every individual, buf, yef, who wanfs fo realize fhe disfrusf, pollufion, hunger, crime, greediness, inflafion, war, jobless, confrol groups, in- jusfice, welfare, faxes, preiudice, immoralify, lack of pafriof- ism, hafred, and furmoil - all moving away from God. Each of us asks why buf no answers. George McGovern had an- swers. Sure, he was a polifician, and he cIidn'f have every answer, buf he did have an answer fhaf fends fo cafch one's affenfion - money, fo be used for America. I believed in McGovern, and I supporfed him fully. I saw him furned away, and I feel sad. Several 'limes I have heard people say fhal' each pres- idency is really fhe same, yef fhey say fhaf McGovern's ideas are so differenf fhan anyfhing fhey've heard. I fell' 'lhaf we should fry somefhing differenf. For an ever changing coun- fry, America needed and sfill needs somefhing differenf from fhe way if's been going during fhe pasf four, eighf, six- feen, even fwenfy years. Did you ever wanf fo see fhe ad- vanfages of McGovern's ideas? They were really very logi- cal and would have worked, in my opinion. I never wanfecl fo admif fhaf George McGovern would lose, I never lef myself fhink if. ls fhaf wrong? I don'f 'Ihink so. If makes me wonder how many people who vofed for Nixon have ever been for anyone, any idea, any feam who was fhe predicfed loser. Some people iusf don'f wanf fo be differenf from public opinion. Okay, so whaf can I say? l'm nof going fo say 'lhal' l'm glad if furned ouf fhe way if did. Why should I give up and accepf defeaf?

Whatever the reasons behind President Nixon's ending the war, political or otherwise, he deserves the sincere grat- itude ot an entire America. An America who has made out- laws out ot their young who tled the country and the war. An America who, according to President Nixon, will not grant any amnesty, as it did to those who tied both World Wars, and Korea. According to Henry Kissinger, all the American troops will be out ot Vietnam within 60 days ot the signing ot the ceasefire agreement. Also all American POW's and MlA's will be released in the same time period. This includes civilian prisoners and those imprisoned in Cambodia and Laos. And therein lies a problem. North Vietnam says that the U.S. agreed to sign the papers Oct. 3I, and now the U.S. says the papers need some rewriting and that the U.S. may not sign it on the 3lst, as will North Vietnam. Also, President Thieu ot South Vietnam says th-ere will be no peace settlement unless he also signs it, and he does not like the treaty as it now stands. North Vietnam declares that the U.S. said Saigon would agree to the terms arrived at by Ha- noi and the U.S. One ot the maior points ot disagreement tor South Vittnam is that, according to the treaty, the land that is held by troops becomes the property ot that country. Since the war was tought in South Vietnam, it is only that country that will lose territory, and they donft like it. The issue ot Vietnam comes down to one day, October 3l. It is one ot the ugliest issues America has ever involved herself in, and the costliest since World War ll. This is the second guerilla war America has tought in the last 20 years. And as was true in Korea, is true in Viet- nam, there were no victories-only losers. The tamilies that were separated by it, those who died in it, those who were wounded in it, those who were prisoners in it, those who lost their country, and the countries themselves-South Vietnam, North Vietnam, and The United States ot America, all lost. lt is time to look back and see how we became involved and make sure we never make the same mistakes again. lt is a time tor reioicing, and a time tor mourning, and most ot all it is a time to stop and thank God. We did survive.-J. Howell. 43 The electronic piano lab in classroom J makes play- ing enioyable.

Persons who would like to join the class are invited to attend any Wednesday night session. They can register for the course at that time. Fee for the full-semester course is 520. Student participation At Seward County Community Junior College, the Stu- dent Government Association should not be iust another token organization which merely goes about its business. Since the SGA's business is the students at our college, it would seem logical that the students would take an interest in their Student Government Association. But the students don't take interest enough even to attend the Student Go- vernment Meetings! Why should students attend .SGA meetings? One big reason: it they really care about their school, they should care enough to tind out what goes on there, especially when it could concern them. The SGA meetings aren't exciting or entertaining. But students will tind they are interesting and informative. Students should come to these meetings to see and participate in the tunctions ot the Student Government Association because students are the SGA's primary inter- est, and they will be amazed at what the SGA does and can do for them. So, students, attend the SGA meetings on Tuesday nights at nine o'clock and show some interest and support tor your Student Government Association. It won't cost you much time and you might be able to make a valuable con- tribution to the meetings. The Student Government Associa- tion would appreciate your interest and attendance. Ari students go Fourteen art students at Se- ward County Community College recently toured art museums and saw private art collections in Oklahoma City, Dallas and Fort Worth. Accompanied by Steve Heck- man, college art instructor, and Mrs. Heckmang and Bob Carder and Mrs. Carder, the students making the art tour were Dee Ann Winter, Valinda Ratzlaff, Tom Dobbs, Royce Gilbert, Max- ine Swearingen, Aaron Scott, Halley Holcomb, Linda Hibler, Diane Hartley, Rose Godfrey, Carolyn Blanchard, Anita Aps- ley, Jana Tuggle and Paula Hood. The group visited the Oklahoma City Museum of Fine Arts, the Dallas Museum of Fine Arts, the Art Department of the University of Dallas and the private collec- tion of millionaire James Clark, housed in his Dallas home. In Fort Worth, the group visited the Kimbell Museum which has been open only one month and is con- sidered by many to be one of the finest examples of architecture in the Southwest. Highlight of the trip was the visit to the home of James Clark, whose art collection is valued at more than 3 million dollars. The Clark collection in- cludes works by Mondrian, Le- ger, Albers, Vasarely, Lippold, Toby, Brancusi, Arp, Moore, Du- buffet, Hepworth and others. ln+erpre+ers busy in fall performing The Interpreters have been busy performing their latest pro- gram The Campaign- Trail x-.here they take a humorous ap- proach to the serious topic of politics.

More than likely, you'll be reading your own little gripe in the next issue. 44 Try screen pr-infing The students in the Textile Class at SCCJC have started to experiment with different types of printing that are applied to fabrics today. The first class project was silk screening. Silk screening is design a process of producing a on fabric using stencils. Each student made six stencils of var- ious objects. A wooden frame was made to hold the fabric tightly. Color was poured into the frame, and was applied to the fabric by a wooden paddle that works the color back and forth into the fabric. A different stencil is required for each different color. Some designs required at least four different stencils. Various types of fabrics were used, each crea- ting a different reaction to the printing. According to Mrs. Van Sickle, the instructor, This project al- lows the students to become fa- miliar with what is involved with garments that have a label or a tag saying the design was produced by silkscreeningf' Spaniards book The Spanish Club met Novem- ber 2nd, to discuss money-mak- ing projects. It was decided that they would make Mexican cook- books and sell them. The cookbooks are now in the process of being assembled and should be ready to sell toward the first or middle of December. The cookbooks will make excel- lent Christmas gifts, according to club members. Also, the club is planning a dance with a band and Mexican dinner in January or February. O Aviafors meei' The Alpha Eta Rho, Aviation fraternity, met recently and new busines was the election of officers. They are, Presiden-t, Ron Kallenbachg Vice-President, Rick Phillipsg Secretary, Susan Carlileg Treasurer, Vance Stout, S.G.A. Representative, Gary Col- lins. Also for new business the club decided to buy jackets for each of the club members. Plans were made concerning the air meet which the club will attend in Fairfield, Iowa, on December 1. Lettermen launch ticket sales campaign The Lettermen's Club of Se- ward County Community College has launched its 1972 campaign to sell tickets for the approach- ing Sain-ts' basketball season. This year the Lettermen will be contacting as many people as possible in the Liberal area with the goal of filling the seats in Rindom Hall for every home game of the Seward County Sain-ts. Last year the Saints com- piled an impressive 15-8 season record and this year Head Coach Virgil Akins states that the team has what it takes to do even better. Tickets for the 1972-1973 sea- son will be sold before the sea- son starts as follows: An Extra Dividend Ticket will allow the holder to attend eight home games for only 56.00. Season tic- kets for reserved seats will go for S12 for 10 home games. The extra dividend tickets may be purchased from any member of the Lettermen's Club at Seward County Community College. The reserved seat season tickets must be purchased by contacting the Athletic Director's Office at 624- 6512. Coach Akins, who is also Ath- letic Director at SCCJC, empha- sized that, Even though the pur- chaser is buying a ticket for basketball games, he will be sup- porting all athletic teams at the college. The sports that these tic- kets sales will support are men's spring baseball, golf, tennis, and track, and women's volleyball and track, as well as basketball, Akins explained. Coach Akins further states, The outlook for all sports is bright for this year and we are looking forward to an outstanding year. The Saints basketball team has turned in surprising and im- pressive performance in the past three seasons. In the 1971 season they defeated the highly-ranked Hutchinson Community College team on Hutchinson's home court. Last year, the Saints handed Hutchinson another defeat before a standing-room-only crowd at Rindom Hall. This will be the last year that the college team will be sharing the facilities with the Liberal High School athletes. Next year, the Saints will be playing their home games in the gymnasium on the new college campus n-ow being constructed north of Liberal. As members of the Jayhawk Juco Conference fWestJ, the Saints will be meeting such teams as Garden City, Dodge City, Pratt, Barton County fGreat Bendb, Cowley County fArkan- sas Cityj, Butler County CEI Do- radoj, and Hutchinson. It's go- ing to be an interesting season, Coach Akins stated, and we're hoping that we can pack the house for every home game.

College foundation receives bequest A bequest of 524,208.25 from the estate of the late Launah H. My- ers has been received by the Se- ward County Community Junior College Development Foundation for the establishment of the Ola M. Vickers Memorial Scholarship Fund for valedictorians of high school graduating classes. A pioneer resident of Liberal, Miss Myers specified in her will that the scholarship be named in memory of her sister, the late Mrs. Ola M. Vickers. The will also states that the bequest will be invested and that the income will be used for scholarships in the amount of S250 per year for each recipient. Miss Myers died March 1, 1971. According to her will, Miss My- ers left three-tenths undivided interest of her estate to the col- lege development foundation. She stipulated that the foundation- be authorized to use its own discre- tion as to investments of the funds received from her estate. According to friends, she was a strong supporter of having a hometown college for Liberal and Seward County. The college development founda- tion operates as a corporation separate from the college but established by local people to gain funds for scholarships and loans for SCCJC students. Those romping, stomping, number one clebaters ot Seward County! Two Seward County Community Junior College debate students won the college a first-place tro- phy October 28 at Manhattan, the first first-place trophy won since the debate program was started at the college. This team, Martin Sizemore and Nikki Blevins, won the six preliminary rounds, the semi- finals and then went on to win the finals trophy in the amateur division in the 25th annual Kan- sas State University Novice De- bate Tournament at Manhattan. Seward County Community Junior College also won second place Sweepstakes honors. Helping win the second place Sweepstakes honors were Dennis Reed, Wichita, and Gloria Clay, Plains, with a 4-2 record and who tied for fourth place in novice di- visiong Dorsey Gentry, Hugoton, and Christina Hull, Liberal, 3-3, novice divisiong and Mike Bryan and Jim Reneau, Liberal, 2-4, amateur division. More than 100 students from 20 colleges and universities from Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri participated in the two-day tour- nament. Debating was in two divisions, novice and amateur. Novice de- baters included undergraduate students with less than two se- mesters previous debating ex- perience at the college level, while the amateur division was 45 restricted to those students with no previous debate experience at all. The 1972-73 debate topic is Resolved: that the federal gov- ernment should provide a ,pro- gram of comprehensive medical care to all United States citi- zens. Debate coach, Gene Clark, said of the tournament, This was our finest performance ever in de- bate tournaments in the history of our program and is indica- tive of the hard work and super- ior effort of the 1972-73 SCCJC debate squad. The next debate tournament will be Nov. 16-18 at Wichita State University. This is lhe year T, of lhe Sainls! Q f. 2 s'e2?f1f I '32, , r A V , up yy x I?

Coach Rausch is pleased with the pro- gress and the attitude of the en- tire group. This fall program, especially the weight program, will be valuable in the sprin-g,' Coach Rausch said. The season depends on how the four sopho- mores do - They have to come through for us to be better than average in the relays, he said. J Here is a brief run down on each team member: KEN ANDREWS - Kenn-y is a sophomore from Liberal major- ing in physical education. Ken is being counted on very much in the short sprint relays and possibly the half mile. JACKIE JOHNSON - Jackie is presently recovering from summer knee surgery and has just started to get some mobility. There is hope that Jackie will make a complete recovery and be a great asset to the team in the sprints and relays. Jackie is a sophomore also. JEFF MCAHREN - Jeff is probably the most versatile ath- lete in the track program parti- cipating in the javelin, long jump, and running on the sprint teams last year. Coach Rausch is hoping for a repeat on those events plus some quarter miles which could be Jeff's best event. GEORGE FISHER - George is from Liberal as are all the sophomores. He is being counted on in the sprints and possibly in the javelin. George did run 440's last year and Coach feels this might be a strong area for George. DAN EDMISSION - DAN is a newcomer to the track .pro- gram and is a sophomore. In high school Dan was a shot put- ter and will be counted on in this and the discus in the spring for the Saints. Dan also is very competitive and will be a, very valuable asset to the team. TERRY RIDDLE - Terry, as a freshman, looks like a great track prospect. Coach Rausch feels that Seward county is very lucky to have a person of his ability and potential. He moved from Pampa, Texas, where he ran on the mile relay and went to the Texas state track meet and ran 3:l8.6. Terry's personal best in this area was 49.2. Terry consistently ran in the 49 sec- onds all last year. DICK DAVIS - Dick is a freshman from Wahoo, Nebraska. Dick comes from a family of good athletes. His brother Jim plays defensive halfback for Eastern New Mexico University and is being highly sought by the pros. Dick is an all-around athletc particioaling in football, wrestling, basketball, and espe- cially track wnere he ran on the spirit team that went to the Nebraska state meet and as a high hurcller with a great per- sonal best of 14.6. Coach Rausch feels that again Seward County is especially fortunate to have an athlete of his caliber. DAN CYPRIT - Dan is an- other freshman who has great potential. Dan could be the main hopes and chances in the middle distance races this spring. A tremendous half miler and com- petitor, Dan's best race may be the mile. Dan has a super atti- tude and keeps the team in high spiritsduring 7 a.m. workouts. He is being counted on heavily to anchor the spirit medley relay and score points in half and the mile. Dan's another athlete for the Saints with great potential, and promise. Women's volleyball win for Seward The Seward Coun-ty Commun- ity College women's volleyball team, coached by Hazel Estes, took first place in a round robin tournament held Saturday, No- vember 11, in the small gymnas- i-um of Liberal High School. The Seward County team won over women's teams from Garden City Community College and Panhandle State College of Good- well, Oklahoma. The three teams entered play- ed each other twice. Against Garden City, SCCJC won first, 15-9, then 16-14, for the best two out of three games. Another match with Garden City saw Se- ward County winning 15-3 and 16-14. Against Panhandle State, SCCJC won 15-12, lost 5-15, then won 15-4. In the second match with Panhandle State, Seward County lost 7-15 and 12-15 after winning the first game 15-7. Seward County took first in overall wins, Garden City took second and Panhandle State's women took home third place. The Seward County Saints' wo- men's team is made up of Char- lene Ausmus, Forgan, Okla.g Cheri Hodges, Deborah Bond, Pam Fry, and Kiddie Pace, Lib- eralg Doneva Plunk, Turpin-, Ok- la.g June Brown, Claude, Texas, and Caecilia Winter, Marienthal, Kansas. ., it . .-. ix x X 4 . isa-.M Carolyn Madden learns by actual practice in the art of screen printing, as a project in Fashion Merchandising, Textiles class. 47 Saints are ready Going into their fourth season of action, the Seward County Saints appear ready for their opening game on November 20. The Saints will be meeting Frank Philips College of Borger, Texas, in Rindom Hall at 7:30. With three returning Lettermen from last year's team Coleman Crawford, Foster Young and Do- nell Brundidge, the team has been characterized as hard to beat. Head Basketball Coach Virgil Akins has expressed that he feels the three returning players have all matured and are more will- ing to work. The broad field of incoming freshmen players was explained by Coach Akins when he said that it was mainly be- cause of the lure of the new campus being built and ready for next year. The tactics to be used in the upcoming season have not been disclosed but Coach Akin-s has made mention that no two years in Junior College Basketball are alike, no matter how many re- turning players you have. Each player has changed some, the addition of new players, and the loss of old ones all affect the to- tal strategy of the game. Looking over this year's list of games to be played Coach Ak- ins has expressed the desire to once again meet Hutch JuCo. We have been the only Kansas team in the past two years to beat the Hutchinson team and they're out to get usf' said Coach Akin-s. However, Coach Akins did say, We are working on something special for when we once again meet the Hutch JuCo team. All in all, it looks like it's goin-g to be our best season ever , Coach Akins commented, and we're really looking for- ward to it. Class hears SKADAF The Social Problems Class of SCCJC had a panel on October 30 from SKADAF to discuss the problems of Alcoholism and Drug Abuse. The panel consisted of two alcoholics and one ex-addict. The class followed up on the panel discussion by visiting SKADAF on November 1, and touring their facility. week. End-of-the-semester pep talk Well, here it is, just right at the end of the first semes- ter, and everyone is ready to move on to the next. For be- ginning freshmen, it's been an exciting four months: for re- turning veterans, it's been a continuation of the educational pursuits they initiated somewhere back in time - before the present semester. This is the time of year when people start having warm thoughts about Christmas, and the chance to start over in another year - more or less a reiuvenation, if you will. And look at what is happening at Seward County Community College. The little school in far Southwestern Kansas is gradually coming of age. A new campus is taking shape north of town. The Saints' basketball team is smoothing out the rough spots and getting into winning condition. More and more students are attending Seward County, becoming loyal Saints, working with a pioneer spirit to get SCCJC off to the right start, toward becoming the best community college in Kansas. The students and faculty and staff of Seward County Community College have a lot to be proud of. We went through an evaluation visit from North Central Association of Secondary Schools and Colleges this fall. lt appears that we received a very favorable rating, from initial comments. Last year, SCCJC received full accreditation from the Kan- sas State Department of Education. We're moving on. No other college in Kansas is as unique as Seward County. We are doing things that other schools haven't thought of yet. Like offering degrees in coniunction with the Liberal Area Vocational Technical School. Like doing away with the F grade and placing an X grade on a student's transcript instead. Like involving the students on all of the college committees. Like having women in intercollegiate sports, Trustees review North Central visit The November meeting of the College Trustees included a re- view of the visit of the North Central examining team in Oc- tober and quick disposal of a number of items of routine bus- iness. Trustees of Seward County Community College also looked ahead to their 2 p.m. bid open- ing on November 28 on con- struction of the activities center and swimming pool. This will be phase two of the bulding plans for the campus now' under con- struction. A three-building complex for phase one is well underway on the campus site north of Liberal. Trustees heard of administra- tion plans for a regular review of the insurance program, a re- port on how out-of-district tui- tion is coming in from other counties, and voted to have a board committee review and up- date the board's policy hand- book. The board also renewed its recognition of the Faculty As- sociation of the college for neg- otiation purposes. The request for recognition was endorsed un- animously by the 31 faculty members. Dr. Dale Gibson, college pres- ident, distributed to trustees a written report of oral comments made by the North Central ex- amining team in their exit in- terview after their three-day visit here. He explained that within six weeks the team would file a written report. This report and the findings of the team will play a large role in the college successfully com- pleting the final steps in gain- ing full North Central accredi- tation. Dr. Gibson's written report listed areas of strength in which the team praised the college here, and areas of concern for corrective action before the North Central hearing in Chicago next spring for a hearing. FINAL EXAMINATION SCHEDULE December 18 thru December 21, 1972 NOTE: Regular classes will not meet during final examation competing with other colleges just as our men do. As we get ready to go into I973, Seward County Com- munity College is emerging from the fledgling stage and ap- proaching the level of an outstanding institution of higher education. And it couldn't have been done without people. The people who are students here. The people who are instruc- tors. The people who help to run the administrative and physical facets of this college. And the people who pay taxes in Seward County and show in so many ways that they believe we have the best school any small city in the midwestern United States could want. So, Merry Christmas! And, Happy New Year! And, come back in I973 and help make that part of the history of SCCJC even better. Mrs. Brown, librarian, is Leader Mrs. O. D. Brown, Director of Library Services at Seward County Community College was elected secretary-treasurer of the Junior Members Roundtable of the Mountain-Plains Library Association in its annual meet- ing last week in Omaha. The MPLA is an organization of librarians from Kansas, Ne- braska, Wyoming, North and South Dakota, Utah, Nevada and Colorado. The JMR consists of members who have been in li- brary work less than five years, Theme this year was the util- ization of television by public and college libraries. Those pre- sent heard consultants discuss the capabilities of television as an educational resource. It Was emphasized according to Mrs. Brown, that, if libraries don't utilize television as an educa- tional vehicle commercal tele- vision interests will. 50 MONDAY, DECEMBER l8, l972 lf your class meets for the first time Mondays at: 7:50 you-r eXam is 7:45- 9:45 is l0:00-l2:00 is l2:l5- 2:l5 is 2:30f- 4:30 l972 8:55 your exam 2:20 your exam l:l5 your exam TUESDAY, DECEMBER l9, lf your class meets for the first time Tuesday at: exam is 7:45- 9:45 7:50 your l0:00 your exam is l0:00-l2:O0 is l2:l5- 2:l5 is 2:30-- 4:30 WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 20, l972 lf your class meets for the first time Mondays at: Il:O5 your exam is 2:30- 4:30 l2:l0 your exam is l2:l5- 2:l5 lf your class meets for the first time Tuesday at: 8:55 your eXam is l0:00-l2:00 Il:O5 your exam is 7:45- 9:45 THURSDAY, DECEMBER 2l, l972 lf your class meets for the first time Mondays at: l0:O0 your exam is 7:45- 9:45 lf your class meets for the first time Tuesday at: 2:20 your exam is l0:00-l2:00 lf your class meets for the first time Wednesday at: Il:O5 your exam is l2:l5- 2:l5 7:50 your exam is 2:30- 4:30 All evening classes will have final examinations at regular class time the week of December I8 thru 2l.

Dan could be the main hopes and chances in the middle distance races this spring. A tremendous half miler and com- petitor, Dan's best race may be the mile. Dan has a super atti- tude and keeps the team in high spiritsduring 7 a.m. workouts. He is being counted on heavily to an-chor the spirit medley relay and score points in half and the mile. Dan's another athlete for the Saints with great potential, and promise.

The Saints will be meeting Frank Philips College of Borger, Texas, in Rindom Hall at 7:30. With three returning Lettermen from last year's team Coleman Crawford, Foster Young and Do- nell Brundidge, the team has been characterized as hard to beat. Head Basketball Coach Virgil Akins has expressed that he feels the three returning players have all matured and are more will- ing to work. The broad field of incoming freshmen Players was explained by Coach Akins when he said that it was mainly be- cause of the lure of the new campus being built and ready for next year. The tactics to be used in the upcoming season have not been disclosed but Coach Akin-s has made mention that no two years in Junior College Basketball are alike, no matter how many re- turning players you have. Each player has changed some, the addition of new players, and the loss of old ones all affect the to- tal strategy of the game. Looking over this year'5 list of games to be played Coach Ak- ins has expressed the desire to once again meet Hutch JuCo. We have been the only Kansas team in the past two years to beat the Hutchinson team and they're out to get us, said Coach Akin-s. However, Coach Akins did say, We are working on something special for when we once again meet the Hutch JuCo team. All in all, it looks like it's goin-g to be our best season ever , Coach Akins commented, and we're really looking for- ward to it. Class hears SKADAF The Social Problems Class of SCCJC had a panel on October 30 from SKADAF to discuss the problems of Alcoholism and Drug Abuse. The panel consisted of two alcoholics and one ex-addict. The class followed up on the panel discussion by visiting SKADAF on November 1, and touring their facility. The Crusader Seward Counfy Communify Junior College Liberal, Kansas You and the S. G. A. By Phil Thornton, S.G.A. President Hello once again from your Student Government As- sociation. Once again we will report to you on some of our past activities and those yet to come. Also, we will share with you some possible helpful bits of information concern ing your future months of education here at SCCJC. On November ll the hayride concluding Sadie Haw- kins Week was held and, with the weather permitting, it turned out to be a well-lenioyed affair with several students in attendance. The pep rally held before the game on the l7th was a great success, with many cars participating in the caravan down Main Street. After the game, a party was held for the players and the students. ln spite of the terrible weather that evening, attendance was very good. On the 27th an- other post-game party was held with approximately 70 to 80 students attending through the evening. We have found that these parties are extremely popular with the students of SCCJC and for this reason we are going to continue to hold these parties in the Student Union. You will find that these gatherings provide excellent opportunities for meeting new people and old friends. And besides, free pool and music is provided. Dates of SCCJC students are also wel- come. Because of only light attendance at our movies this year, we will be forced to cancel our remaining featur-es. We do this in order to conserve funds for bands that will be hired for three of four spring danc-es. We feel the dances and parties will more than make up for the movies. On Monday, December I8, we invite you all to attend our final party from 7:30 to lO:00 p.m. Take a break from work, studies, and come to the Student Union where we will serve free donuts and hot chocolate. Here is a little advice to all college students who are in need of money to pay for books or any other school need. S.G.A. loans will again be available to all students in the spring term. Now there will be new and better terms on the loans to better serve the student. Contact the -Student Ser- vices office or any Student Government representative for further information about this service. Also, inquire about other financial aids that are available to you. There are several. Remember, the Student Services office is the place to go. We in the Student Government would like to thank all the club members on campus who recently expressed their views to the Student Government on a recent issue that they felt affected them directly. Although the help we could give them was somewhat limited by laws we were able to clear the air substantially. This is the kind of thing it take to have a strong Student Government organization. Recently, S.G.A. initiated a program in cooperation with the Athletic Department that allowed us to invite stu- dents, any students, from the surrounding area to see a Saints game free of charge. Also questions, if there are any, could be answered. This will not be a lecture. We would hope that the students will enioy themselves and spread the word back home. This is an attempt to make all the surround- ing area aware of SCCJC and what it has to otter. S.G.A. would like to thank the hard-working staff of The Crusader for the space they have allotted us in this pub- chance they have given lication. We greatly appreciate the us to present our views and beliefs to all the student body. students of SCCJC the Also, we would like to wish all the best of luck on the upcoming finals. Don't forget the finals party on the 8th. ln conclusion, Seasons Greetings from all of us to all of you, the students, faculty, and adminis- tration of SCCJC. 119 Job class holds The final session of this term's How to Get a Job and Keep it class was held Nov. 27 in the Kansas Avenue classroom building of Seward County Com- munity College, with Charles Brisendine of, the Citizens State Bank as the speaker. The next class will begin in January, accordin-g to Mrs. Odes- sa Lewis, instructor, with the time to be arranged. Anyone in- terested should call Mrs. Lewis at 624-5965 or the Adult Educa- tion office of the college, 624- 1151. Brisendine emphasized giving of yourself, serving others, stay- ing with the task, maintaining pride and dignity, studying to prepare yourself to fulfill your dream. He recalled his childhood in Liberal when he saw dust storms, money shortages and hardships, yet some people, including his father, stayed and shared their skills and abilities with others, helping to make Liberal a city we now enjoy. Brisendine said that the ef- forts, desires, hardship and mis- ery his father encountered, work- ing with a physical defect, re- vealed to him that it isn't the limbs that make a man, but the desire. He also drew on his experi- ences in the Marines where he lived and learned under discip- line that regardless of how dif- final session ficult the task, stay with it to rise above the conditions. Brisendine advised always keeping your sense of values, setting your own standards, and staying with them. He gave the example of Dr. George Washing- ton Carver, great world-renown- ed black scientist who many years ago in a visit to the White House had to use the servants entrance, yet kept his dignity because his confidence was in God. To keep a job you need to love the job and make it a better position than when you took it, Brisendine said. He encouraged the class and Mrs. Lewis to forever use their God-given abilities, to be taught and to learn, and to help some- one else who needs assistance and share with others, as the class has done. The Rev. V. L. Bobbs, Mrs. Lewis' pastor, commended her for her work, including church work of house-to-house Bible study, and his baptism of 15 members claiming Christ through her teaching and for her college work and love and concern for all people in their spiritual, ec- onomic and social welfare. Class members presented Mrs. Lewis a set of jewelry as a gift and committed themselves to future fellowship with one another.

Photographer-Barry Dies End-of-the-semester pep talk Trustees review North Central visit Well, here it is, iust right at the end of the first semes- ter, and everyone is ready to move on to the next. For be- ginning freshmen, it's been an exciting four months: for re- turning veterans, it's been a continuation of the educational pursuits they initiated somewhere back in time - before the present semester. This is the time of year when people start having warm thoughts about Christmas, and the chance to start over in another year - more or less a reiuvenation, if you will. And look at what is happening at Seward County Community College. The little school in far Southwestern Kansas is gradually coming of age. A new campus is taking shape north of town. The Saints' basketball team is smoothing out the rough spots and getting into winning condition. More and more students are attending Seward County, becoming loyal Saints, working with a pioneer spirit to get SCCJC off to the right start, toward becoming the best community college in Kansas. The students and faculty and staff of Seward County Community College have a lot to be proud of. We went through an evaluation visit from North Central Association of Secondary Schools and Colleges this fall. It appears that we received a very favorable rating, from initial comments. Last year, SCCJC received full accreditation from the Kan- sas State Department of Education. We're moving on. No other college in Kansas is as unique as Seward County. We are doing things that other schools haven't thought of yet. Like offering degrees in coniunction with the Liberal Area Vocational Technical School. Like doing away with the F grade and placing an X grade on a student's transcript instead. Like involving the students on all of the college committees. Like having women in intercollegiate sports, competing with other colleges just as our men do. As we get ready to go into I973, Seward County Com- munity College is emerging from the fledgling stage and ap- proaching the level of an outstanding institution of higher education. And it couldn't have been done without people. The people who are students here. The people who are instruc- tors. The people who help to run the administrative and physical facets of this college And the eo le who a The November meeting of the College Trustees included a re- view of the visit of the North Central examining team in Ofc- tober and quick disposal of a n-umber of items of routine bus- iness. Trustees of Seward County Community College also looked ahead to their 2 p.m. bid open- ing on November 28 on con- struction of the activities center and swimming pool. This will be phase two of the bulding plans for the campus now under con- struction. A three-building complex for phase one is well underway on the campus site north of Liberal. Trustees heard of administra- tion plans for a regular review of the insurance program, a re- port on how out-of-district tui- tion is coming in from other counties, and voted to have a board committee review and up- date the board's policy hand- book. The board also renewed its recognition of the Faculty As- sociation of the college for neg- otiation purposes. The request for recognition was endorsed un- animously by the 31 faculty members. Dr. Dale Gibson, college pres- ident, distributed to trustees a written report of oral comments made by the North Central ex- amining team in their exit in- terview after their three-day visit here. He explained that within six weeks the team would file a written report. This report and the findings of the team will play a large role in the college successfully com- pleting the final steps in gain- ing full North Central accredi- tation. Dr. Gibson's written report listed areas of strength in which the team praised the college here, and areas of concern for corrective action before the North Central hearing in Chicago next spring for a hearin-g.

Fashion sludenis presenl' special holiday slyle show The Fashion Merchandising Class of SCCJC presented a Hol- iday Style Show to the public on November 14 at the St. An- thony Catholic School. Lana Freeman was the Mistress of Ceremonies. The Holiday Style Show con- sisted of three different scenes, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years. The Thanksgiving scene fea- tured different style-5 of pant suits, dresses, and winter coats that one would wear to an-y Thanksgiving dinner. During the Christmas scene the models dis- played loungewear and sleep wear would be comfortable to relax in during the Christmas rush. The final scene in the Hol- iday Style Show featured eve- ning wear. The gowns and dress- es of bright colors and gay styl- ing would add a little spice to Deba'l'ers fake Oklahoma win any New Years party. During the changing for the various scenes, Trudy Waggoner and Doris Behm, both Fashion Mer- chandising students, gave a demonstration to the audience on the do's and don'ts of removing certain articles of clothing in public. During the style show, Lyle Plugh, an instructor at Liberal High School, taped the style show so it may be shown on the dif- ferent television stations in our area during the holiday seasons. Students from several different classes modeled the fashion. Mo- deling from the Fashion Mer- chandising Class were Diane Hartley, Trudy Waggoner, Gayle Scantlin, from the Textile Class were Pat Clark, Carolyn Madden, Doris Behm, and from the Per- sonal Development Class were Cheri Hodges and Lynda Reever. The stage coordinators were Carolyn Madden, Susan McGar- ry, Melva French, and Lena Eckhoff. Ushers were Cathy Glenn and Bev McComb and Pia- onist was Christian Hull. Many of the retailing stores and businesses in Liberal either furnished fashions, or they sup- plied accessories and props for the different scenes, they were: J. C. Penney, Also, Longs, Mode-O-Day, Levines, Grisiers, Sweetbriar Jo-Le, Woods, Mer- cantiles, Anthonys, Anna Tra- hern, Gibsons, Miller Mortuary, Brown's Furniture, Scantlin Fur- niture, St. Anthony's Catholic School. According to Mrs. Van Sickle, the instructor, The style show gave the student experience in modeling, planning a public style show, and writing up fash- ion commentary. I think the girls did a great job for being ama- teurs. The debaters of Seward County Community College continued their winning ways Friday and Saturday, December 8 and 9, when they picked up a second place in total sweepstakes points and a third place trophy for in- dividual wins at Northwestern Oklahoma State College Debate Tournament, Alva, Oklahoma. Christina Hull, Liberal soph- omore, and Gloria Clay, Plains freshman, bought home the third place trophy with wins over de- baters from Northern Oklahoma College ftwicej, Cameron State College, Henderson County Col- lege fAthens, Texasb, and But- ler County Commun-ity College. The second place trophy went to all the Seward County debat- ers for overall squad strength. Martin Sizemore, Liberal fresh- man, and Dorsey Gentry, Hugo- ton freshman, brought home a fourth place trophy with wins over Bethel College, Southwes- tern QWinfieldJ, Central State Uniyersity, and the University of Oklahoma. Dennis Reed, Wichita fresh- man, and Mike Bryan, Liberal freshman, failed to qualify for the finals, although they had a win over Henderson College. This was the last tournament of the fall semester and the de- baters are ready for the spring, according to Coach Gene Clark. Fashion siore fours continue The Fashion Merchandising Class is continuing their tours of the different types of retail stores in Liberal. On December 8 the students were given a tour of the Mercan- tile store. According to Mrs. Cheri Van Sickle, instructor, The tour gave the studen-ts a better understanding on how an independent store operates, some of their problems and their ad- vantagesf' The tour covered such areas as how one goes about opening a store of their own, where one gets their ideas for the con- struction of a store, and how one buys fashions for an indepen- dent store. The Fashion Merchandising Class will be takin-g other tours similar to this one with the pur- pose of getting acquainted with the different types of retailing stores in Liberal and how each of them differs from the other. 51 Debaters Marry Sizemore.

Arl' of Kansas insl'rucl'ors displayed An exhibition representing the work of art instructors of the Kansas network of community college was on display in Ep- worth Hall of Seward County Community College the week of Dec. 4. The show included work of instructors from Garden City, Dodge City, Colby, Ft. Scott, Pratt, Cloud County, Butler County, Coffeyville, Indepen- dence, Highland and Seward County Community Colleges. The exhibition was limited to two-dimensional works, draw- ings, paintings, and graphic prints, due to the problems of shipping and therefore omitted work of sculpture and ceramics instructors. The display provided insight into the variety and compe- tency of work by community col- lege art faculty members through- out the state. The 26-piece exhibition is traveling to each of the com- munity colleges taking part and will also be on display at the state-wide community college meeting in Wichita in January.

Fashion Merchandising Student Low bid is still too much The hopes of SCCJC Trustees for start of construction soon on a student activities center and swimming pool for Seward County Community College received a ioll' Tuesday affernoon, November 28, when the low bid on the iob came in at 5I23,000 over the archifect's estimate. Low of the three bids for the project was a base bid of 5688,000 submitted by McBride and Dehmer of Wichita, the construction firm now building the first phase of the niew campus. The architects on the iob, Schaefer, Schirmer, and As- sociafes of Wichita, had estimated the iob at 5545.000 plus a 520,000 contingency fund. The student activities center and pool are fo be financ- ed by revenue bonds in the amount of 5690,000, previously authorized by trustees, but not to be issued until after con- sfrulcfion contracts are signed. Trusteies took the bids under advisemenf Tuesday and assigned their architect to work on possible solutions. The matter will be taken up at the regular December board meeting, December l2, unless something develops requir- ing action af a special meeting. The 56'-70,000 in bonds must finance not only the con- struction, buf capitalized interest, architects fees, and fur- nishings, and would fall far short of covering costs with the bids which were received Tuesday. The other fwo bidders were Rhoades Construction Company, Goodland, base bid of 57l8,333g and Busboom and Rauh, Salina, 5725,650. A fofal of 556,000 in deduct alternates were included in the low bid, but if all were accepted, would still leave the bid al' 5632,000 far above the estimate. George Emrich, in charge of the proiect for the firm of architects, mel' with trustees after the bid opening, said that he was uncertain as to why the bids came in so far above the estimate, but cited a number of possible factors. He said that as late as last Friday, Nov. 24, indications from contractors were that the estimate was close and not unfil shortly before the bid opening did the firm gel' hints that the bids would be well above the estimate. Emrich, re- ceived board aufhorify to consult with federal Housing and Urban Development officials as fo whether or not trustees can negotiate with the low bidder. However, there was some doubt expressed that enough could be negotiated owl' of the plans without a major revision calling for new bids. Federal money is involved in the proiect, requiring HUD approval of the plans and contract. Plans call for the student activities center, housing food service, book store, offices, dining areas and lounge areas, to be separated by the proposed swimming pool, from the physical facility now under construction. In their Dec. I2 meeting, however, the frusfees vofed to move ahead, after changes were made fo bring down the price of the activities center.

Library gets gift A 24-volume set of Oil Scout's Yearbook has been presented to the library of Seward County Community College by the Lib- eral Desk and Derrick Club as part of an educational program now -underway by the Associa- tion of Desk and Derrick Clubs of North America. The aim of the association is to place a set of Oil Scout's Yearbooks in libraries through- out the United States where stu- dents may use them. The program has placed oil and gas statistical volumes val- ued at 570,000 in more than 200 college libraries in North Am- erica, in the hope that more reliable statistics on the oil and gas industry will be readily available to students. Accepting the books present- ed to the college were Dr. Dale Gibson, President, and Mrs. O. D. Brown, Director of Lib- rary Services at the college. Presenting, the books for Liberal Club were Mrs. Vivian Arm- strong, secretary at Anadarko, president of the local clubg Nor- ma Tucker, secretary at Ana- darkog Elaine Beye, Panhandle Easterng and Cheley Rodgers, Secretary to Nelson Escue. Dr. Gibson expressed appre- ciation for the books and stated that they would be a valuable addition to the growing college library. ,.--Mx College songsters as they and Director Clarence Hoo- per prepared for Dec. 'IO Christmas special. Saints lose in double overtime Making ball-handling mistakes is a Very un Saintly thing to do. The miscues wiped out a gallant comeback effort in the second overtime and doomed Seward county to its second straight overtime defeat, Nov. 27. This time the loss came in two extra sessions and was dished out by the West Texas State freshman 85-83 in Rindom Hall, Liberal High School. A week earlier, the Saints had bowed in their opener 86-84 to Frank Phillips Junior College, Berger, Texas. Both games were similar in many ways. Early turnovers, 19 in the first half against Frank Phillips and 15 against the young Buffs, put the Saints into an eight-point halftime hole. Last night it was 32-40. A second half rally tied the game and sent it into overtime. The difference ended there however as Seward County show- ed flashes of greatness in the final 20 minutes against West Texas. The Saints applied the defen- sive pressure and outscored the WTS yearlings 16-2 in the open- ing five minutes of the second half. Forty minutes of this type of play is what Head Coach Vir- gil Akins is seeking. It would produce a strong conference con- tender. After West Texas tied the game at 50-50 with 13:34 remaining, the dog fight was on. Seward led by five points, 67-62 with 6:48 to play when Coleman Crawford ban-ged in a field goal. But the Saints were unable to put the young Buffaloes away. They came back to take the lead 72 71 with 58 seconds remaining in regulation time. WTS could have salted the game away with 13 seconds when Bobby Anderson made the first free throw to stretch the lead to two points, 73-71, but missed on the second. Curt White, who lead the Saints in scoring with 21 points, put in a follow shot with one second to go to tie the game at 73-73. Both- teams scored only three points in the first five minute session. West Texas put up two shots in the last 11 seconds with neither finding its mark and forc- ing a second overtime. The ball handling errors hit the Saints again. West Texas took advantage of four straight turn- overs, including two steals for easy layups by John Hayes, to mount an 83-78 lead. Still the win-hun-gry Saints werenit dead. Trailing by seven 85-78, with 25 seconds remaining, Jake Taylor put in a long one- hander. A steal was turned into a three-point play by White with eight seconds to play. When West Texas threw away the inbounds pass, SewCo had one last chance to tie. White's shot was off to the right and 6-7 Mark Wible re- bounded for the Buffs with one second to go.

Saints down St. Grego-ry's, 84-81 A late rally carried the Seward County Saints to their first vic- tory of the season Thursday, Nov. 30, 84-81 over the St. Gre- gory's Cavaliers CShawnee, Ok- lahoma in the opening game of the Amarillo Classic in the Bad- ger gym. The Saints, who lost their first two games in overtime, were down by seven points, 59-52, with 13:09 remaining in the game when they caught fire behind the scoring of sophomore Coleman Crawford and Foster Young. Crawford scored 14 of his 16 points in the last half. Young put in a three of timely buckets down the stretch. The Saints finally overcame the deficit with 10:50 left in the game when Stan Vaughn scored from underneath. Crawford fol- lowed with a jumper which put the Saints ahead 62-59. They nev- er trailed after that. Another basket by Crawford and a pair of field goals by Curt White moved SewCo out in front Team competes From November 29 to Decem- ber 3, 11 SCCJC aviation students attended the Regional Air Meet in Fairfield, Iowa, which was hosted by Parsons College. Accompanied by Mike Van Sickle, the air traffic control instructor, the students making the aviation trip Were: Vance Stout, Terry Lee, Ron Kallen- back, Rick Phillips, Jana Hou- ser, Gary Collin-s, Rhonda Hub- bert, Mark Tipton, Susan Carlile, Gary Vanderbruinhorst, and Jes se Collum. The first day of events start- ed with the pilots, Vance Stout, Mark Tipton and Gary Vande- bruinhorst, participating in the power-on and navigation events. In the bomb dropping event the following students participated, Ron Kallenback, Rich Phillips and Susan Carlile. At the banquet, special recog- nition was given to Rick Phil- lips, who placed 2nd in the bomb dropping events. Rick was award- ed a trophy for his accomplish- ments. The pilot of SCCJC re- ceived honorable mention for their accomplishments in the power-off and power-on events. 511 68-65. Young scored three of the Saints next four baskets with Dale Doll also hitting from 22 feet out as Seward moved out in front 76-68 with 4:17 left in the game. The Saints had more than its share of trouble defensing 6-7 sophomore Peter Gildud who banged in 30 points the first half. A collapsing zone limited the import to 12 points the last half. Crawford and Donell Brundidge paced the winners with 16 points each. White had 14, Young 13 and Vaughn 11. SewCo Debaters at Winfielcl Debaters from Seward County Community College competed Friday and Saturday, Dec. 1 and 2, at Southwestern College in Winfield, narrowly missing one debate trophy and scoring high in indivdual events. The tournament, which was open division for debaters with up to eight years experience, brought together 50 teams from six states. The team of Dorsey Gentry, Hugoton, and Marty Sizemore, Liberal, won six and lost tw'o, missing a trophy by one speaker point. Wins came over Evangel Col- lege, State College of Arkansas, Kansas State of Emporia, Fort Hays State, Sterling College and Oklahoma Baptist. The team of Dennis Reed, Wichita, and Gloria Clay, Meade, won three and lost five with wins over Central Methodist, Oklahoma Baptist and Kansas State of Emporia. In individual events, Gloria Clay received superior and ex- cellent ratings in oratory and oral interpretation. Christina Hull, Liberal, re- ceived excellent ratin-g in ora- tory and interpretation. Marty Sizemore received good ratings in extemporaneous speaking. Debate coach Gene Clark said that despite very rough com- petion and very experienced op- position, our debaters displayed significant improvement. If they can maintain the enthusiasm and energy that they displayed at this tournament, we are going to go a long way. Saints gel' revenge by stomping We-si' Texos Sharie S'l'ompers The Seward County Saints rallied in the second half to de- feat the West Texas junior var- sity Stompers 73-61 Monday, Dec. 4, and averaged a, double overtime loss to the Stompers in Liberal, November 27. The triumph broke a two- game skid and gave the Saints a 2-4 overall record going into their conference opener against the Butler County Grizzlies, which SCCJC won 72-62. After a slow start, the Saints scoring pace picked up. The first good open of the evening came when Dale Doll bucketed two points with five seconds left in the first half to give the Saints a 35-34 intermission lead. It's the first time this season that SCCJ C has led at halftime. At the start of the second half, Donnel Brundidge, who triggered the win with 21 points, scored on a jumper, Foster Young tal- lied off a fast break, Brundidge put in two on a follow shot and Doll bagged one to give the Saints a 45-36 lead with 14:36 left in the game. The Stompers were never able to overcome that spurt. The mar- gin was in-creased to 11 points, 3' ' 'i Q 2 rir' 1. N T ' . Z, ,fr tfyzs ,.,' , 3 ,,,-' V ,.,, , QU 54-43, 62-51 before West Texas made its last gasp for victory by ripping off eight straight points. The flow was stopped when Brundidge put in a free throw, Stan Vaughn chipped in a pair of charities and Young found 553555 ieif the range from underneath. This gave the Saints a 67-59 lead with 1:05 left in the contest. Two elements aided the much needed triumph, fewer turn- overs and more free throws. In going 1-4, the Saints had aver- aged 20 turnovers and 14 free throw attempts. Dec. 4, the miscues were trimmed to 11 QWTS made 125 and the Saints had 32 opportunities at the line, casling in 21 times. WTS won the rebounding war 37-34 with Brundidge pacing SewCo with 13. Following the Saint standout in scoring was Vaughn with 15 while Doll put in 13. Y , D Seward Coun'l'y The Connors State College Cowboys from Warner, Okla- homa, roped the Seward County Saints 77-71 in a cliffhanger Dec. 1 in the first game of the sec- ond night of the Amarillo Clas- sic. The Saints, 1-1 in the round- robin meet and l-3 on the year, lost to the host Amarillo Col- lege Badgers Saturday, Dec. 2 as the tourney closed play. Seward County was involved in another hair-raiser which wasn't decided until the final minute of play. Connors, now goes under fo Connors State. 77-71 3-1, led only 73-71 with 1:45 left in the game after Dale Doll drilled in a 15-footer. The Saints stole the ball and had an oppor- tunity to tie the game, but two shots at the baskets missed. Con- nors got the ball back with 46 seconds remaining and the Pokes went into their delay game. The Cowboys stalled until 21 seconds were left with Jasper Brown hitting on both ends of a one and one to push the lead to four points, 75-71. Seward again ' came away 55 empty-handed when a pair of shots misfired. Connors rebound- ed with Bill Hays being fouled with six seconds left. Hays con- verted both ends of the bonus situation to steal the six-point decision. Free throws not only hurt the Saints at the end but also killed them throughout the game. Se- ward County only had l2 oppor- tunities at the line and made l6 while Connors put in 15 of 21 chances. The Saints led in field goals 32-31.

QfQ'pgA Choir-Chorus Perform Together in pre-Christmas presentation. The SCCJC College Choir and Community Chorus joined under the direction of Mr. Clarence Hooper and presented a Christ- mas program of sacred music in the Presbyterian Church, Sun- day, December 10. The program opened with Ho- die. Christus Natus Est J To- day, Christ is Bornj, Willang Four Old English Carols: When Christ Was Born, The Golden Carol, Blessed Be that Maid Marie, and 'tThe Bellmanis Song, arranged by Theron Kirk, Wake, Awake, Christiansen, and Gloria In Excelsis, Mo- zart. The second section consisted of a short cantata, Good Chris- tian men, with Joy Draw Near by the Baroque composer, Diet- rich Buxtehude C1637-17077. Section three concluded the program with Hodie, Christus Natus Est QToday Christ is Bornj, Tagg: and Alleluia, ar- ranged by Roger Wagner. Organist for the group was Mrs. Tom Cunningham. Pianist was Miss Celia Massoni from Kis- met. The choir's music varies from Bach to rock. For the spring concert, the choir has been work- ing on a rock cantata, The Creation, an interesting piece of this generation. The choir is open to all col- lege students for one hour's cre- dit. Last semester the SCCJC College Choir numbered about 30 members. There's always room for more singers. Interested? Contact Mr. Hooper. Board member leaves for Texas James K. Curry, who served as the first president of the Board of Trustees of Seward County Community College, an- nounced by letter in a Decem- ber meeting his resignation from the board effective January 1. He was elected a college trus- tee exactly five years ago this month and is the first of the ori- ginal six members of the trustees to leave the board. Curry had earlier served on the Liberal Board of Education for several years and as president of that board. Curry, who is Manager of Ex- ploration for Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line Company, asked in the letter that his resignation be- come effective on January 1 of 1973, because he is being trans- ferred to Houston by the com- pany. Curry's letter of resignation, which also contained a personal message of continued support and good wishes for the college, was read by Herbert Hobble, Jr., trustee president. In making the motion to ac- cept the resignation, trustee Dr. Parsons also recommended Jim that a letter be prepared thank- ing Curry for his contribution-s to the college and the board. Also in a joking vein trustees suggested a letter of recommen- dation to the college district where Curry is moving, touting him as a trustee for that district which is just establishing a new community college. Trustees voted to discuss pro- cedure for a replacement at the January meeting, and in the meantime asked that any sug- gestions by the public be sub- mitted in writing to Hobble. Trustees have the option of ap- ponting a replacement member to fill the unexpired term. Psychology Club seeks new members The Psychology Club is recruit- ing new members for the spring semester, . Last fall the club sponsored a Halloween Fun House Party, films, and a hypnotist. Second semester plans are being made for a spring trip to a Mental Health Center. All students are welcome to join. Contact Mrs. Lana Free- man, faculty sponsor. 61 Inleprelers plan Spring The theatre performing under the di- of Mrs. Lana Freeman, Interpreters, a readers' rection plan to combine with the music department under the direction of Mr. Clarence Hooper for a spring program to be used for high school tours. Other Inter- preter spring performances will be for local civic groups. Any student interested in par- ticipating in The Interpretersu for one hour credit should talk to Mrs. Lana Freeman, sponsor. Government expands loan program College students will be able to float bigger government-back- ed loans after February 1, but they will have to swear the money is only for schooling and not things like cars, stereos or other noneducational items. The U.S. Office of Education has announced new rules for the 31.3 billion-a-year guaranteed stu- dent loan program, which affects an estimated 1.2 college students and 20,000 lenders in the nation. Under the new rules, the loan ceiling for individual students will go up from 31,500 to 32,500 a year, and more affluent stu- dents will be able to apply be- cause a 315,000 family income eligibility ceiling will be remov- ed. A student receiving a loan will have to file a sworn, notarized affidavit saying the money will be spent only on education at the college or university recom- mending the student's loan. David C. Bayer, operations di- rector for the loan program, said that requirement was in- stituted because of the relative- ly few abuses by students who borrowed money, didn't go to school and then refused to re- pay it. The new rules were issued ac- cording to a new higher educa- tion law passed by Congress earlier this year. The rules take effect March I, but apply to ap- plications made after February 1. Debaters compete in Arizona Th e SCCJC debate squad resumed action on January 10-13, as they traveled to Phoenix Arizona for the 'tArizona Swing Tournament . Phoenix college hosted the first tourney on Jan- uary 10 8z 113 and Arizona State University hosted the second half of the swing on January 12 gl 13. According to Mr. John Wat- kins, tournament director, over 60 colleges from Washington, D.C. to California participated, mak- ing the Arizona Swing one of the five largest tournaments in the U.S. Debating for SCCJC was Mar- ty Sizemore fLiberalj, Dorsey Gentry CHugotonJ, Christina Hull fLiberalD, Gloria Clay CPlainsj, Dennis Reed fWichitaJ, and Mike Bryan CLiberalJ. In addition to debate, each SCCJC debater also participated in two individual e v e n t s including persuasive speaking, oral interpretation, im- promptu speaking, rhetorical an- alysis, an extemporaneous speak- ing. According to debate coach, Gene Clark The 'Arizona Swing' will certainly be the toughest competition of the season, but we're all looking forward to this tourney because C15 we know we can be competitiveg and 123 what we learn from this type of com- petition will aid us significantly in our own junior college region- al competition. , tiii ' .

R S V I I zi. it A -1 5, i ,m College sells ocl'ivil'y cenler bond A 3690000 revenue bond issue to finance construction of the student activities center and swimming pool at Seward Coun- ty Community College was sold in December at an average an- nual interest rate of 5.89 per- cent over the 30-year term of the issue. ' College trustees sold the is- sue to a group of four financial firms headed by Stern Brothers of Kansas City, Missouri. Total interest cost over the 30 years will be S839,803 on the win- ning bid. Total cost on the other bid was 5l5882,521. Hal McCoy of First Securities, Wichita, the financial consultant for the Board of Trustees in pre- paring the issue, said the low' bid compared favorably with se- ven percent bids on recent com- parable issues. First Securities, along with George K. Baum and Company and Zahner and Company, both of Kansas City, Missouri, joined Stern Brothers in making the winning bid. Cost will actually be less be- cause of a promised federal in- terest subsidy on the issue, but this exact figure will not be known until later, because the federal subsidy grant will not be computed until the interest rate on the winning bid is reported to federal officials. The bond issue will be retired on revenue from student fees, the book store, food service, pool rental and other revenues. Trustees had previously ac- cepted the low bid of McBride and Dehmer of Wichita for con- struction of the activities center and pool. The Wichita construction firm is now at work on the first phase of campus construction, a S3 million complex of three acade- mic, humanities and physical education buildings. Construction of the activities center and pool should be com- pleted this fall, not long after the first three buildings are com- pleted. Saints defe-died by Hutchinson Seward County Saints went un- der Friday Dec. 15, as the Hutchinson Blue Dragons cruis- ed to a 91-75 Jayhawk Confer- ence, Western Division, victory. Seward County committed 23 turnovers. Three costly ones ear- ly in the second half broke the game open. The Saints trailed at halftime by only eight points 43-35. Donell Brundidge's basket and two free throws by Dale Doll trimmed the deficit to four, 4-93. Hutch countered with field goals Teko Wynder and Charles Terry. Then three straight buc- kets were racked up after a trio of SewCo turnovers off the Blue Dragons zone press. The salvo lifted the third-ranked junior college in the nation into a 53- 39 lead. Seward County never threatened after that. The Saints managed to chop the margin down to 10, 69-59, and 75-65, but another burst gave the Dragons an 18-point lead, 91-73, late in the game. The game wrapped up pre- Christmas action for the confer- ence favorites. The setback snapped Sewardls modest two-game winning string and gave the Saints a 3-5 over- all mark and a 1-1 league fe' cord, going into the holidays. The Sain-ts made good on 30 out of 74 shots from the field and were 15 for 24 at the line. The Dragons hit on 39 out of 85 floor shots and made 13 of char- ity attempts. Hutch led in re- bounds 53-44. This is lhe year lo gel behind The Sainls! Sainl's beol' Cowley before holidays Winless Cowley County's Ti- gers were riding a one-point halftime lead into the second half when Curt White hit three straight from the field for Se- ward County to put the Saints ahead for good. The 56-48 Saints win here Dec. 19 gave them a 2-1 conference record going into Holiday break. Cowley jumped off to an 8-0 lead and then committed ten turnovers while big Mike Wil- liams and White were teaming for a total of 12 points to put Seward ahead 12-8. The Tigers then came back with a seven point spurt to go ahead 15-12, and built up a 21-15 lead. This time it was Donell Brun- didge who teamed with White to put the Saints back into a 22-21 lead wth 3:10 to go in the half. Jerry Clugston hit a free throw I O U Spring beginning With the fall semester, 1972, now history, the spring semester, 1973, began when classes start- ed Monday, January 15, at Se- ward County Community College. According to Assistant Regis- trar Mrs. Gayle O'Kane, enroll- ment for the spring semester will pass the 600-student mark when all registrations are com- pleted. Deadline for late regis- trants is February 5. At this time, we can have an accurate enrollment figure, Mrs. O'Kane stated. A special evening enrollment session was completed on Tues- day, January 16. The college is offering a full evening schedule as well as 34 short community services courses. Over the holidays, from Jan- uary 2 through January 6, Se- ward County conducted a five- day mini-semester, offering four one-hour courses. January 19 was set as the last day for a 100 per cent refund of tuition and fees for the spring semester. January 23 is the dead- line for a 75 per cent refund, and January 30 is the end of the 50 per cent refund period. Enrollment during the fall se- mester also topped the 600-stu- dent figure. With the new cam- pus being completed for occu- pancy next fall, enrollment is expected to continue showing progress. 62 with a second left on fhe clock to give the Tigers their 25-24 halftime lead. Cowley County had been red hot from the field in the first half, hitting ten of 15 attempts, but cold from the free throw line with 5 of 17. The Saints had hit only 7 of 26 attempts from the field but stayed close with 10 of 11 charity attempts. After White's second half burst to open the lead the Saints maintained 5 to 7 point margins until, with the score 49 to 44. Seward County notched seven quick points to put the game out of reach at 56-44 with less than a minute to go. White and Brundidge carried the scoring load for the Saints with 16 an-d 15. Mike Williams contributed 10 and Coleman Crawford 8. Curry and Cannon Honored for Service Mr. and Mrs. Jim Curry and Mr. and Mrs. Joe Cannon were guests of honor at a Friday eve- ning dinner, January 5, at the High-Plains Petroleum Club, rec- ognizing them for their service to Seward County Community College. Dr. Dale Gibson, president of SCCJC, made a presentation of a pen set to Joe Cannon, stating that the college felt a deep ap- preciation for the long-time Lib- eral newsman and his efforts in reporting news about the college in a fair and energetic manner. President of the SCCJC Board of Trustees Herb Hobble, Jr., made a pen set presentation to Jim Curry, citing him for his devoted service to the college in its early stages of development. Curry resigned, effective Janu- ary 1, to move to Spring Branch, Texas. Our Gang, the college choral ensemble, provided the enter- tainment for the evening meal. Clarence Hooper, director of mu- sic at SCCJC, introduced the group individually and led the musical presentation. The dinner was attended by members of the college board of trustees and college administra- tors and their wives. Trustees receive Seward County Community College trustees heard reports recently on federally-funded pro- grams in which the college is taking part or applying for and on methods of attracting new students, passed a resolution ex- tending the capital outlay fund levy, and approved criteria, to qualify as a Servicemen's Op- portunity College. These actions occupied the first part of the December meeting, before trustees took up their building program. Federal Programs Three administrators of Se- ward County Commun-ity College, including Dr. Dale Gibson, Pres- identg Dr. Wade Kirk, College Dean, and Don Guild, Dean of Student Services, had recently returned from a trip to Washing- ton to investigate federal pro- grams. They took turns reporting on the programs for which the col- lege is now receiving federal funding, and programs in the of- fing for which applications have been made. To Aid Servicemen Dean Guild also reported on the criteria which the college must adopt to qualify as a Ser- vicemen's Opportunity College, to aid servicemen in continuing their college education. He said that although the draft will no longer be a factor, students are volunteering for military service. Many of the criteria are al- ready a part of the college po- licy and trustees approved adopt- ing the full program. Capital Outlay Levy Dr. Gibson asked, and trustees approved, extension of the capital outlay levy, limited by law to one mill. The college has not been levying the full mill. Dr. Gibson said that the move to the new campus will make the levy increasingly important. Student Recruiting John Garmon, Director of Community Relations and Ser- vices, explained the methods be- ing used to attract new students from the surrounding area to attend college here, with primary emphasis being on the opening of the new campus next fall. He described procedures in- cluding visitations to 30 area high schools, attending eight college planning conferences in reports area schools, and a plan having high school counselors and prin- ciples visit the campus here on an individual basis. Student leaders from sur- rounding high schools are also invited to basketball games by the Student Government Association, and students from nearby towns attending college here plan to contact high school seniors during the holidays. Insurance Report Bryce Neaville, Business Man- ager, told trustees that the in- surance committee is working on a plan which would consolidate insurance coverage with the move to the new campus. Luncheon Meeting Trustees held a luncheon meeting December 21 with the newly-elected State Senator for this district. Charlie Angell of Plains, and the State Represen- tative, Wilfred Bush, Liberal. Scholars help recruit students In a special meeting before the holidays with Dr. R. W. Kirk, dean, and Don Guild, dean of students, presidential scholars at Seward County Community Col- lege offered their assistan-ce in telling others about Seward Coun- ty while they were off for the holidays. Dr. Kirk, Guild, and Robert Busby, director of adult educa- tion, explained to the students at- tending the meeting that more is being done to get present stu- dents involved in helping to at- tract more new students for the new -campus next year. According to information avail- able at the pre-vacation meet- ing an effort is going to be made to involve all Seward County Community College students in a campaign ,for the purpose of filling up the new campus with new faces when it opens next fall, 1973. Previously in the fall semes- ter, John Garmon, director of community relations and services at SCCJC, spoke unofficially to a meeting of the Student Govern- ment Association concerning stu- dent involvement in encouraging area high school seniors to at- tend college on SCCJC's new campus. 63 SCCJC Spanish Club held a Christmas fiesta for Span- ish-Speaking Chi-ldren in Liberal before the holidays. SCCJC freshman An acquaintance here last sum- mer with a priest from Mexico resulted in an unusual Christmas vacation for a Liberal freshman, Maxine Swearingen. Maxine flew to the heart of Mexico where she had a chance to thaw out and improve her Spanish. A Spanish and art major with considerable credit in both fields, Miss Swearingen, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Max Swearingen of 1110 W. Seventh, made the chance acquaintance and the money necessary for her winter vacation through the migrant program in which she instructed in Liberal the past summer. Just come down any time, Father Francisco Lopez told her here when she expressed a de- sire to visit Mexico. After re- turning to his work with the Catholic Church at Santiago Ix- cuintla in the states of Nayarit, Father Lopez recalled his pro- mise. He made arrangements for her to spend the holiday period in the home of a Mexican family in Santiago lxcuintla. Maxine flew from Wichita to Houston and thence to Guadalajara, Mexico, where Father Lopez met her for the 140-mile bus trip north- west to Santiago. Asked if she wasn't a little visits Mexico worried about making a trip to a foreign country alone, Maxine replied: My biggest worry was getting lost in a large airport - 'til now Wichita's arport is the biggest I've been in. But every- thing worked out for the best. Queried as to what her par- ents thought about the solo trip, she laughed and remarked: Mom said 'I don't think you should be going by yourself, and Dad just said, 'be real careful! Maxine made a trial run into Mexico in September with her Spanish instructor, Mrs. Melissa Masoner, and four other SCCJC students on a weekend trip to Juarez. Santiago lxcuintla is a city of about 25,000. The fun part was shopping and haggling over the prices as Americans are expected to do. She explained how the shopper can negotiate in the open mar- kets - sometimes they just say 'how much would you like to pay for it? That's the hardest part when they don't say how much they're going to charge you, she recalled. A top student at SCCJC, Miss Swearingen won first place in the state high school Spanish competition and placed high in national competition. Seward Counfy Communify Junior College LIBERAL KANSAS The Crusader March, 1973 5 L Q Wi, Those who dribbled ihe baskeiball io Garden Ciiy The student and financial assistance The student who has no financial help faces physical and mental hardships created by the rising cost of educa- tion. Our academically oriented society makes a college education a prerequisite for a large percentage of jobs but does not provide financial means for many students to ob- tain this education. Those who would meet the challenge, despite the steady increase in prices, have special problems to overcome. There are relatively few available part-time jobs. Lib- eral is a small town with a limited business community which can employ only a fraction of the people who apply for part-time work. A student must often apply months in ad- vance to be assured consideration and is, at that, not always assured of a position. He may even enroll and pay down some money before finding he has no job and cannot afford to attend school. Most employers pay minimum-wage or less and the student who is lucky enough to procure a job must not complain because there are others who would be happy to step in. The student who works a few hours a day for low wages cannot make enough money to support himself ade- quately and pay for his education. The self-supporting student will try to work as many hours as possible. The work load, coupled with class time, may result in too few hours for study. The student may resort to cutting an occasional class, if he is not prepared or feels he needs that time to prepare for another class. Neglect of 5 ,,.- .

Facing this long grind is too grim a prospect for many students who drop out in frulstartion. The student who is determined to achieve his education- al goals while working will often push himself beyond the limits of physical good sense. He may attend classes, put in several hours at work and stay up most of the night to study. When he begins to slow down or become fatigued he may resort to stimulants to keep himself going. Even if he relies on nerves and will-power to stay up his body cannot toler- ate such an abusive schedule for long. The student who push- es himself too hard may be forced to lay-out or quit school because of illness. At the very least, he will function below normal capacity in his endeavors. The probability of keeping his health, grades and iob intact under these circumstances is very small. The rising cost of education does, indeed, pose special problems for the student who must bear his entire financial burden. Finding and keeping a part-time iob, keeping abreast of his studies and staying healthy are especially difficult when the financial burden gets heavier each year and the iob opportunities remain static. The city, the school and the prospective student all share a responsibiliy for finding a solution to this student-defeating problem. Juco wives take lst 8: 2nd places in pancake race Two Seward County Commun- ity College faculty wives took top honors in the International Pancake Day Race March 6, Shrove Tuesday. Pat Clark, wife of speech and debate coach Gene Clark, won first place in the pancake race with a time of 1:01.2, beating the English pancake runner by nearly 6 seconds. Emily Mathias, wife of social science instruc- tor Greg Mathias, came in just a second or two later for the second place spot in the race. Another SCCJC entrant, Hazel Estes, physical education in- structor and division chairman at the college, was in, the lead coming down the home stretch, but dropped back to fourth . place at the finish line. M ai., Mrs. Clark is also a student at SCCJC, and she works as a clerk at Woods clothing store.

Soinis defeat Dodge City February 1 The Big Green zipped past the Dodge City Conqs and onto an 84-75 Western Division victory Tuesday, Feb. 13, before a small gathering which came out to watch the important conference contest in Rindom Hall after it had been postponed from Janu- ary 27 by the weather. Seward County countered with a strong scoring night by Donnel Brundidge, Coleman Crawford and Mike Williams. Brundidge bagged 26, Williams had 20 and Crawford 18. The trio also paved the way for SCCJC's lopsided 65-49 re- bounding advantage. Crawford hit the boards as though his life depended on it and hauled off 20 caroms. Williams picked off 18 missed shots and Brundidge 16. With the Saints not operating from their offense or getting penetration Dodge City took the Soinis score Hutch bul' lose 97-90 Hutch's Dragons averted a third straight upset loss at the hands of the Seward County Saints with nifty outside shoot- ing down the stretch to rack up a tough 97-90 decision in Rindom Hall Friday night, Feb. 9. The Western Division leader, and the 11th ranked juco quin- tet in the nation, trailed' the spunky Big Green 75-69 with 7:53 left in the game. The lead, which came on con- secutive baskets by Curt White, Dale Doll and Foster Young on a follow shot to break a 69-69 standoff, seemed to wake up the Dragons. Seward County put up a good battle. They held the upper hand most of the night and fought the war of the boards almost on even keel with the taller Dra- gons. The Saints led by as many as six points twice in the first half and settled for a 43-39 advan- tage at intermission. Donnell Brundidge got the first bucket of the second half as the lead went back to six. Hutch went ahead 50-49 and turned the game into an old-fashioned tug-of-War until the Saints spurt .put them on top by six. But Hutchinson reeled off eight straight points to go out in front 81-79. Brundidge tied it one last time at 81-81 with 4:03 remaining in the contest. Then 6-9 Rudy Jackson, who'll be playing for Wichita State next year, put in a turn around jumper on the baseline. SewCo came down, shot once, missed with Hutch rebounding. Kenny Joe Love converted a three- point play to make it 86-81 with 3:30 left. Brundidge got two points back on a pair of freebies before Hutch put in five unanswered points to take charge of the game 97-83 with 2:31 left. SCCJC never got closer than four points. Young scores high as Soinis down Foster Young waited until his final regular season game as a Seward County Saint to really erupt. His offensive efforts couldn't have come at a better time. With Young scoring 31 points, including the final 11, the Seward County Saints roared from be- hind to cinch a third place tie by trimming the Dodge City Conqs 71-67 Saturday, March 3. Young was simply super as he led the Saints back from an 11- point deficit in the final nine minutes. On the verge of elimination, despite displaying an extremely spirited performance, the Saints hit a cold spell and the Conqs 53-42 with the game. The Saints then Dodge City 14-3 over the next five minutes with Young's driv- ing layup shot tying the game at 56-all with 4:15 to play. Brad Pagenkopf sank three straight baskets to keep the Conqs on top. DC's last lead was 63-60 with 2:13 left. Seward County took the lead when Young picked up a loose rebound and put it back in from eight-feet away. Twenty-three seconds la- ter, he was on the scoring end fell behind 9:06 left in outscored early lead of the game, 7-2, and led throughout the first half. The score was tied only once 28-28 with 3:49 left, and the Saints never led. The Conqs led at intermission 40-38. Dodge City got the first four points of the second half to scoot out to a 44-38 advantage. The Conquistadors still led 50- 44 on a short jump shot by Mel- vin Coleman with 15:19 left in the period when the Saints be- gin to jell. Dodge scored only one field goal over the next five minutes to Seward County would either force a turnover or limit DC to one missed shot. Seward finally took the lead 54-52 on a jump shot by Curt White. He added another one before fouling out with 11:17 left in the game. The big three, Brundidge, Williams plus Doll put in field goals as the Saints opened up a 64-56 lead. Dodge City made one final bid to overhaul the Saints when they trimmed the lead down- to two points twice, 66-64 and 68-66, but. buckets by Brundidge and Wil- liams again raised the margin to six. The Conqs were behead- ed. Seward County put up a sea- son high of 99 shots with 36 finding the ran-ge for 36.2 per- cent. Not good but better than Dodge's 35.7 on 30 out of 84. From the line the Saints were 15 of 21 while DC dropped in 12 of 18 chances. The Conqs did lead in turnovers 20-14. Garden stops Saints 77-50 al' GCCC The Seward County Saints lost to Garden City 77-50, Tuesday, Feb. 27 at Garden. Previously, Garden lost by 16 points in Rindom Hall C96-803 but won in a 27-point rout Feb. 27. The Big Green played a fair- ly good first half. They jumped out in front 4-0 and 6-2 in the early going, and led 22-21 with 4:59 to go before intermission. They were down only 32-30 at the break. In the last half, Seward Coun- ty collapsed. They were out- scored 45-20. Cold shooting hampered the offense at the offset, and when the de- Garden the ball wouldn't drop, fense also fell apart. City riddled the Saints on the fast break, or by hitting a man wide open underneath. At one point in the mess, the Busters had outscored the Saints 30-6. Sew'Co made only three field goals in 14 minutes. The official book didn't have a Saint scoring in double fig- uresg however, Seward County statistics recorded Dale Doll with 11 points on 5 of 11 from the field and 1 for 2 at the line. The Saints made only 23 of 82 attempts for 28 per cent, con- nected on just 4 of 11 free throw attempts, and made 19 turnovers. Dodge for 3rd in Conference of a Donnel Brundidge to Mike Williams to Young fast break which put the Saints ahead 64-63 with 1:15 left in the game. Dodge City turned the ball over with 1:01 remaining with Youngs driving layup giving SCCJC a 66-63 advantage with 48 seconds to go. He was fouled on the shot and converted the free throw to make it 67-63. However, the Conqs, who fin- ish in a sixth place tie with Garden City, didn't give up easy. Pagenkopf again hit to cut the deficit two, 67-65, with 27 sec- onds left. The key play came when the 68 Saints had trouble getting the ball down court with the Conqs kicking it out of bounds. Seward played it in from the side at Dodge City's end of the court. Young broke fullJlength with Brundidge's long-distance pass, from out of bounds, finding his teammate all alone underneath his own bucket for an easy two points. Young completed his heroics and cinched the Saints initial playoff berth after four years of trying by makin-g both ends of a one-and-one with three seconds remaining. Phi Theta Kappa honor society gets The Chi Alpha Chapter of Phi Theta Kappa initiated thir- teen new members into its or- der on February 11 and 20. The new members are, Debra Batt, Nancy Brown, Pam Fry, Vivian Gill, Marci Lee, Julie Mason, Celia Massoni, Bruce Olsen, Psychology Club This semester, Psychology Club is working on a project to make the students and staff of SCCJC more aware of the cul- ture, contributions, and problems of the American Indian. Mem- bers of the club took an opinion poll in the Student Union on stu- dent attitudes and opinions of the Indian. They also have a collection of Indian artifacts on display on the second floor of Epworth Hall. In addition to this, they are selling candles made by the men- tally retarded. A percentage of the money made on this project will be used by the Psychology Club for field trips to the Cen- tral State Institute in Edmund and to the institute at Fort Sup- ply, sometime in March. The rest of the money received from Rodney Riech, Maxine Swearin- gen, Billie White, and George Wilcox. Returning members are: Gail Crafton, President, Cathy Glenn, Vice-President, Randy Verble, Secretaryg Marla Nix, Treasurerg Charles Collins, S.G.A. Representative, Jean Cro- plans activities the candle sales will go to the Foundation for the Retarded. President of Psychology Club is Beverly McComb, Bruce Ross is Vice-President, and Con- nie Geist is Secretary. There are fifteen regular members. Fees are 31.00 a year, and membership is open to all stu- dents. For their meetings, they of- ten have films and guest speak- ers. In the past, they have had a hypnotist give a lecture and demonstration on hypnosis. They also have sponsored a Halloween party, and a Christmas scaven- ger hunt. This semester, they are plan- ning on a field trip to the South- west Guidance Center or to the alcoholism and drug abuse foun- dation. Science Club is active at SCCJC Science Club is not a national or statewide organ-ization for scientific investigation designed around experimentation, but an interest clubg one in which ex- periences are shared. Science Club has sponsored a turkey shoot, rummage sales and bake sales to raise money for excursions to different parts of the country. Last year they went through parts of Colorado and New Mexico on a camping trip built around the geology of that area. This year, they are thinking about going to Missouri or Arkansas to view some of the caves in that area. They have also talked about raising enough money to take a short trip to Palo Duro Canyon in Texas, near Amarillo. At the beginning of fall semes- ter and the last of spring se- mester, Science Club has a pic- nic for all members. Their meetings are set up in such a way that attendance at Science Club meetings will not interfere with any other school activity. The club meets once a week, every other Tuesday morning, at the Golden Derrick, for break- fast at 6:30 a.m., and on the other Tuesdays, they meet at 9:00 p.m. in room C of the classroom building. On March 10, Science Club is planning to go to the Hays Mu- seumg then, in April, they plan to have a guest speaker who will lecture and show slides on the nervous system. Psychology Club is invited, and anyone else who is interested. Science Club will be sponsor- ing another rummage sale this spring, and a trap shoot at the Plains Gun Club in order to raise funds for their trips. Any- one interested in joining the club or attending meetings of interest is welcome. The club is not set up primarily for Science Majors, but for everyone. 69 13 new members thers, Larry Howard, Ronda Hubbard, Becky Strange, and Kay Stoddard. Phi Theta Kappa is a national organization with local chapters in colleges all over the United States. SCCJC's own Chi Alpha Chapter is now serving as Sec- retary for the statewide organ- ization of chapters. Mrs. Pauline Toland and four members went to the state convention at Hutch- inson on February 23 and 24. Every year each local chap- ter participates in Phi Theta Kappa's study program. This year Chi Alpha is studying the visual arts, music, and literature. Membership in the local chap- ter of Phi Theta Kappa is based solely on the student's scholas- tic honors and citizenship, and in order to be eligible to enter, a student must be carrying or must have completed at least 15 credit hours while main-taining a 3.35 or better grade point av- erage. After completing thirty hours, a student attaining a 3.25 or better grade point average is eligible. Board re-employs The Board of Trustees of Se- ward County Community College Tuesday night, Feb. 13, accepted a recommendation that the cur- rent faculty be re-employed for another year, with minor chang- es in responsibilities. Dr. Dale Gibson, president, re- ported on the recent meeting of the Board-Faculty Committee and stated the committee was functioning satisfactorily. A eom- mittee from the Board meets periodically with the faculty welfare committee. Dr. Gibson also reported that he had met recently with the high school athletes here, coach- es and athletic director, in con- nection with athletes from Lib- eral attending other community colleges. The college board vot- ed to offer all assistance possi- ble. Gibson also reported on the out-reach programs offered by community colleges in Western Kansas and states that repre- I SCCJC clowns Cowley County SCCJC had little problem in polishing off cellar-dwelling Cowley County 69-56 to run its league record to 6-4, Saturday, Feb. 17. They didn't have to put out much effort to get past Cowley County. The Saints missed their first 12 shots from the field, or else they would have broken the game open much sooner. The cold shooting, 31 for 92, continued much of the game but Seward won the game on simply overmatching the Tigers on ta- lent. The Saints threw four double figure scorers at Cowley, Dale Doll 17 points, Coleman Craw- ford 15, Mike Williams 12 and Stan Vaughn 10. From a 30-26 halftime lead the Saints outscoredlCowley 8-2 at the start of the second half to open a 38-28 lead. The Tigers never got closer than six points after that. Head Coach Virgil Akins play- ed his reserves the final minutes of the game. faculty for 73-74 sentatives of the various schools will soon draw up areas te be serviced by each college. The president also expressed the college's concern to cooper- ate in relieving a parking prob- lem involving students brought to the college's attention by Po- lice Chief Robert Morrissey. Merchants between Fifth and Sixth on North Kansas had com- plained at a recent city com- mission meeting that students were taking all the parking pos- itions for long periods during the business day. Dr. Gibson said the college has requested that students, fa- culty and staff not park on the west side of Kansas in this block. Dr. Gibson gave a feasibility report on a plan for remodeling Epworth into a college dormi- tory to provide 107 beds in the first phase of the program in- volving only the new wing. The plan is under study, but it is hoped the dormitory can be available next year. Playoff lost Coffeyville's Red Ravens de- feated the Seward County Saints 80-58 points Monday afternoon, March 5, in the opening game of the Region VI playoffs at Hutch- inson. The Saints, who made the playoffs only by the skin of their teeth after Head Coach Virgil Akins won a coin flip over But- ler County Sunday, didnit have the heavy guns to stay with the Ravens who earned a spot in the postseason action by winning the eastern division. Coffeyville downed 34 of 60 shots from the field for 56.6 per- cent to the Saints 26 for 67 or 38.8 per cent. Seward County, which finishes its season with a final record of 11-14, was never really in the game against Coffeyville. The Ravens were ahead 28-12 with 5:12 remaining before in- termission when the Saints put on a spurt, behind the shooting of sophomores Donell Brundidge and Foster Young, to close it to 36-30 by the break. The second half began with Coffeyvilleis Don Turnetine and Dale Doll exchanging baskets before the Ravens reeled off six straight points, and then contin- ued to widen the margin. Charles Evans, 6-4 Red Raven forward, led his team in both scoring and rebounding with 21 points and nine caroms. Lanard Reid pocketed 17 and Turnetine 14. Brundidge, who picked up four fouls in the first half, collected his fifth with 15:33 left in the game. He fouled out with 10 points, all coming in the first 20 minutes. Foster Young fin- ished as the Saints high point man with 15 while Mike Wil- liams had 14. Saints 'fall to The Barton County Cougars handed the Seward County Saints a smahing 90-56 setback in a key western division game, Mon- day Feb. 19 at Great Bend. The Cougars did the bombing in their last home game of the season. Things began poorly for the Saints. After the first 10 minutes of play they were trailing 18-4, The candidates . . and the Queen and her court 'U' 1 I Homecoming Queen is Teresa Taber Saturday night, Feb. 24, was a night of pageantry for the Se- ward County Saints at Rindom Hall. Eleven beautiful girls were escorted through the hushed crowd to the stage to await the announcement of the Homecom- ing Queen and her court. It was a night for the Saints to say hello to a new queen, and to say goodbye forever to Rindom Hall as their home court. There was time for sentiment after the game at the home- coming dance, but in the pre- game ceremonies, one thought was shared by everyone, Who will be Queen? The announcer, Gene Clark, seemed indifferent to the crowd's feelings of impatience as he read the list of winners. Marci Lee was announced as second runner up. Tying for first run- ner up were Susan Carlile and Debbie Batt. Finally, the announcement of the new queen was made: Teresa Taber graciously took her place as SCCJC's second homecoming queen. Pratt defeated 88-75 It was the last game for three Seward County sophomores in Rindom Hall, but it was a pair of freshmen who led the way for the Saints to dispose of the Pratt Beavers 88-75 in Rindom Hall Saturday, Feb. 24. The Homecoming game drew almost a full house. The crowd watched a first half defensive duel which emerg- ed into an offensive slugfest the final 20 minutes. The final game in Rindom Hall saw sophs Donnel Brundidge, Coleman Crawford and Foster Young ending their home ca- freers. However, the 2nd half free-for-all was led by frosh Curt White and Dale Doll. White finished with 26 points and Doll put in 20. The Saints mustered the up- per hand at intermission 33-30. Pratt scored the first four points of the second half to signal the battle to begin. The lead exchanged hands 12 times and the score was tied four, the last at 67-67, before the Saints took the lead for good 75-74 with 3:32 left in the game. Enroute to taking charge, the Big Green had to overcome a six-point Pratt advantage mid- way in the session. Once SCCJC got the lead, Pratt cooled off while the Saints remained hot. The Beavers then got desperate and began gunning from anywhere, and everywhere, in an attempt to get back in the game. Instead, the shots missed and Seward County pulled away to smash the Beavers' playoff hopes. In the final 3:23, Seward County outscored Pratt 15-1 to avenge a loss at Pratt. Barton County 90-56 in major setback had made only 1 of 10 shots from the field and had made five turnovers. However, the Saints struck back. Foster Young coverted a rare four-point play to chip the lead down to six, 20-14. Later, Curt White's tipin reduced the margin down to four 24-20. Twice in the final 3:30 the fightin' Saints pulled to within thrcc points, 29-26, and 31-28, before the Cougars broke into a 39-30 intermission lead. After the Saints got the first two points of the second half, Barton County pulled away for good. SCCJC was never closer than seven the final 20 minutes. With 15 minutes left in the game, the Cougars put on a spurt which outscored SCCJC 15-2 over the next seven minutes 70 to open up a 63-40 advantage with 8:52 left in the game. The Saints were drowned in free throws. While SCCJC put in 8 of 10 attempts Barton County had 32 chances and con- verted on 24. The only Scoring punch the Big Green could muster was White who was the only Saint to reach double figures with 16 points.
