C9 1983 Southern Illinois University Fads photo by Doug Janvnn : DS 3 DS A new American sub-culture was born in 1983. A 41-year-old singer and his 14-year-old daughter tthe latter, known as Moon Unitl were driving force in the tvalley girls' movement. The leaders of this new ultra fad created a new wave of jargon, dress and mannerisms. Phrases like tlferr sure? 1ttotally awesome, ltgrody to the max, and tlbarf outll became the vernacular everywhere, only years after they were coined in Californials valley region. This new culture reintroduced head bands, mini-skirts, flat heeled shoes, and ankle socks to the American scene. Frank and Moon Zappals hit thrived on the youngls tendency to be different. However, unlike many of its predecessors, the Valley movement thrived long and better on commer- cial wealth. Wearing designer Shoelaces, leg warmers, owning a personal home computer, tuning into a micro-sized walkman for music and entertaining yourself with a small leather bag called a hack sackl were all status symbols in 1983emore appropriately fads. Most are as doomed to a short life as were their predecessors: Rubikls Cube, wearing designer blue jeans and wearing safety pins through the cheeks. This phenomena is nothing new. It probably existed from the y ancient Roman emperors to the surfs of medieval Europe. It is doubtful that the surfs or emperors would have had a personal home computer sitting in their living rooms as a family of the 80s might very well have. . The personal home computer may well be on its way to a place next to the family television in every Ameri- can household. Already an indispen- sable tool in business and industry, a personal home computer may also soon play a critical role in the every- day lives of families. Already it controls family finances, stores records and recipes, teaches kids to read, write, multiply and divide and entertains its users. According to Clive Smith, a senior analyst for the Boston-based market- ing research firm Yankee Group, 1982 personal home computers sales reached 2 million units, compared to 340,000 computers sold the previous year and 140,000 in 1981. Half of those computers purchased in 1982 ranged in price from $200 to $500. The most popular, lower-priced home computer was the Timex Sin- clair 1000, the first computer to sell for less than $100. As for the future of home units, Smith predicts that 3.5 million to 5 million of the computers Will be sold next year alone. Prices will continue to decline, and by most estimates, nearly half of all American homes will soon have the powers of 6 the computer age within their reach. There is a direct tie between the computer craze and the $5.7 billion video game industry. The games have evolved from Pac Man to Ms. Pac Man, from Donkey Kong to Donkey Kong J unior and the list goes on. Many kids as well as kids-at-heart perfect their games to a point that they, like 18-year-old national cham- pion Ned Troide, can play a game such as Defender for 62.5 consecutive hours on one quarter. Aside from the evolution of existing games, industry leaders like Atari and Intellivision have begun to pro- duce several bizzare fascimilies of popular music groups and movies. One example is a cartridge known as The Texas Chainsaw Massacre in which the player is a psychopathic killer on the loose who racks up points by chopping heads off the fig- ures that wonder onto the screen. When the video game industry first became popular many prominent physicians blamed them for what photo by Mark Crost they called video elbow and arcade. arthritis. Since that time, in the late 70s, many hospitals, nursing homes and rehabilitation centers have started using the games as a source of restoring coordination to victims of strokes and hand-eye coordination to persons who have undergone eye surgery. Moving to the sounds of Beethoven, Kenny Rogers and groups like the BeeGees were all part of the new Dancercise fad. To one extreme Dan- cercise got an estimated 20 million Americans-mostly adolescent fe- maleseout of their seats and dancing excessive baggage off. To the other extreme, the new dance craze was like the sounds of disco that died in the late 70s. Again, dancercise was a commer- cial monster; sending many bored housewives and weight conscious teens to stores to buy multi-colored danskins, legwarmers, sweats and headbands. All of which are neces- sary and proper equipment for danc- Features Features photo by Brian Howe' photo by Doug Janvnn ing off pounds. A major source of the dance craze was nationally syndicated programs like Richard Simmons combination exercise and diet show and books like J ane Fondals workout book. It took ten years of development for a small leather sack tilled with beans, beads and other assorted goodies to work its way east from Oregon and ; become popular at SIU-C. In what could be described as the thacky sack syndromef this craze swept Carbondale and other cam- puses as the fall term began and was still going strong at presstime. The objective of the game is to keep the footbag from hitting the ground. The 'way one achieves this goal involves the entire lower body. Games range from a solo endeavor all the way up to group events known as haCky circles. While there have been no set guidelines as to time limit and number of players, one standard has been set; keeping the sack air- borne as long as possible. Kenny photo by John Racine Shultz holds the national record of more than two hours. It was fashionable to take advan- tage of the free enterprise system through parodies. Parodies of any- thing and everything were abundant. The spoofery literally littered the land, so much of it was around that one might safely assume that nothing is sacred. From the Off The Wall Street Jour- nal to books like Real Men Donlt Eat Quiche; the market has beeen flooded with buck making books, mags and gags. ttGood parody lays waste to some of the stupidity and arrogance that goes on all about us, says Robert Vare, a 37-year-old comedy writer who lives off of parodies. Of all the crazes this one requires no amount of good taste or scruples. The rash of take-offs have led to a multi-million dollar industry. Any- thing that can be made fun of can be turned into a profit. El Iused to have a pattern shaved into the back of my hair, a zig-zag. It was a lfavorlgiuen to me by a friend for the sake of fashion. The pattern which emerged from under the scis- sors resembled a series of v-shaped irrigation ditches running from the middle of my scalp toward my ears. To those unaccustomed to such Chic, I must have looked like Ifre- quently engaged in domestic violence or like I had had at least one good beating. Fashion of this kind may be drastic for a southern Illinois college town, but in a more fashion conscious en- vironment such a hairstyle would be in step, if not a step behind. Features Itfs hard not to look at the media and around the streets to see new wave fashion as the pervasive trend it is: even in Carbondale. Experimenting with music, dress and dance are vital to this trendls development. Some may label these experimenters punk rockers, new wavers or just weird. This trend has, undoubtedly, been influenced by ilnew music? This new sound has, however, become increas- ingly difficult to iind in Carbondale. Most of the local and area radio stations are dedicated to a predomi- nately top-4O programming mix, rejecting the less restricted album format that existed in Carbondale a few years ago. However, top-40 is exactly what these people want. They seek an alternative that is more bold and full of more energy. SIU-C,s student station, WIDB, remains dedicated to the policy of bringing good alternative sounds to listeners, says music director Ken Krause. Krause thinks that there is a deii- nite punk scene in Carbondale, but describes it as iisort 0f contrived? tiThe attitude is not really there and it canlt be. The attitude for true punk rock has to emanate from a source. iiTrue punkers are those who are iinancially deprived, and are angry about the way they are forced to live? . he said. iiHere its just middle-class boys and girls having fun? WIDB doesn,t play the hard-core punk sound of bands like Black Flag and Throbbing Gristle, he says, but does give more airplay t0 the com- mercial sound of Romeo Void and X, which he believes represents more of what listeners want to hear. Movements like punk rarely rejoice, yet there is a certain joy in collective bitching, collective recognition of l frustration. The joy comes in the re- , lease of both aggression and frustra- New wave dancing is less restric- tive than its predecessor, punk.

Primitive forms of dancing were the perfect vehicles. The pogo consists of jumping up and down and shaking all over, is very close to a temper tan- . trum in attitude. With the exception of four bars, however, Carbondale fails to supply enough clubs that cater to the new wave audience. Dress is perhaps the most impor- tant aspect of new wave. Those in- volved with new wave step outside the bounds of conventionalism by . either a commercial new wave look or simply by sporting something un- usual and original. One employee of a vintage clothing store in Carbondale, said many peo- ple come in looking for something punk and leave with something unusual and outlandish. Unusual clothes can often be found at thrift shops, according to Yvette LeTourneaux, known to friends as a unique dresser and often labeled a ipunkerl by those who see her on the street. LeTourneaux said that she gets most of her clothes from her grand- mother and thrift shops. ltMost of the things I wear are older but you could call them vintage, she said. Unique hairstyles can also be seen in Carbondale and have been a vital part of achieving a head-tuming look. The trend has reverted back to a six- ties vogue known as the spike. Spiked hair stands up, forming points or spikes at the top of the head. Aside from shaping your hair it is impor- tant that one finds a color that best reflects his or hers feelings. Colors vary from shades of purple and red to green. Allen Weisman, though he is not a participant in the new wave move- ment, sees the entire attitude and look as an ttintellectual movement that focuses on avant-garde self expression? Steve Rush, a senior in public rela- tions, agrees. tiTheirels a definite sub- culture of new wave which has a more realistic set of ideals? he said. tiBut I don,t think its quite as strong as punk was. Punk was a total lifestyle? El The Year in Review ' The Obelisk II takes a look at some of this yearis headlines and highlights. From El Salvador t0 the Falklands, war raged on. Eighteen nations were fighting, whether it be battle of the land or seas or guerrilla warfare, and an es- timated 125,000 men, women and children lost their lives during these skirmishes in 1982. Since the ultrarightist Major Roberto d,Aubuisson came into power three years ago, 30,000 citizens have died there. Despite public complaints to Congress over continuing abuse of hu- man rights, the US. sent more than $300-million in military and economic aid to El Salvador in 1982 alone. Aside from the continual flow of arms into to the Central American hot-spot the United States proposed increasing the number of military advisors to train government forces. The increased aid made the light for El Salvador look more and more like Viet Nam. In Guatemala, where government forces have claimed some 5,000 civil- ian lives since a coup in March of 1981, the picture was no different. On April 2 Britain was pushed into a battle for 4,700 square miles of rocky islands in the South Atlantic when Argentines took control of the tiny Falkland Islands colony. Prime Min- ister Margaret Thatcher reacted by sending 27,000 men, more than twelve times the population of the province, aboard warships, submarines and converted luxury liners-the Queen Elizabeth II and the Canberra. Although the war only lasted until early J une, the human cost was high. Some 255 British troops and 746 Ar- gentines died along with three civil- ians from the capital city of Port Stanley. 10 X L mm: k. 5 Wide World Photo GOOSE GREEN, EAST FALKLAND-Argentinian soldiers captured at Goose Green are guarded by a Royal Marine shortly after their surrender ended a three-month- old conflict with Great Britain. While the battle off the coast of Argentina took most by surprise, the fighting in Lebanoneafter seven long years-was just part of everyday life. A surprise attack by Israeli bomb- ers and troops, however, was the far- thest thing from everyday life that the residents of Lebanon were expect- ing. It looked like the Middle East bloodshed might come to an end when US. envoy Phillip Habib mediated for the Palestinian Liberation Organiza- tion and the Israeli government headed by Prime Minister Menachem Begin. The assassination of Lebanese President-elect Bashir Gemayel in September prompted Israeli troops to occupy west Beirut. With the purpose of maintaining the peace, Israeli forces were soon stained by the blood of a PLO Christian Phalangists slaughter NEW YORK-A booming stock market made for feverish activity as prices on the New York Stock Exchange soared to record levels, reaching a high for the Dow Jones Indus- trial Average of 1,065.49 on Nov. 3, 1982.

One hundred and twelve days after the landmark Decem ber 2, 1982 operation Clark died at the University of Utah Medical Center. Clark makes medical history. h Medical history was made on De-- cember 2 when a team of surgeons at the University of Utah Medical Center implanted an artificial heart in an ailing Seattle dentist. One-hundred and twelve days and more than 13-million beats later the 12 man-made, plastic and aluminum heart was shut off. Not'because it was defective but because the 62-year-old Barney Clarkts other organs, includ- ing kidneys and lungs, failed. A lot can be said for Barney Clark,s courage and stamina. In addition to the seven-and-a-half hour operation to install the first permanent artificial heart, Clark underwent surgery to close blisters on his lungs, replace a cracked valve in the mechanical heart and to stop severe nose bleeds. Clark also suffered seizures, bouts of pneu- monia, kidney failure, depression and Wide World Photo mental confusion. Clarkts sacrifice and suffering has added to the medical profession,s knowledge and will save lives in the future. Dr. Robert J arvik, the hearts designer, feels that his invention has proved its worth. ttWe have been able to offer at least one patient who was terminally ill a reasonable level of hope for a good life? El Year in Review Tylenol poisoning claims seven lives. In early October seven suburban Chicagoans died. Not unusual for a city of more than three million citi- zens. Then a common denominator was found in the deaths. An airline stewardess, a homemaker and a young Year in Review school girl who had been ailing from a cold had all taken cyanide-laced Tylenol. The deaths kicked off a chain reac- tion of shock and panic. The result was a $100-million nationwide recall by the makers of the nationis number one over-the-counter pain reliever, J ohnson 8L J ohnson. More than 22 million bottles of the tablets and capsules poured into re- gional testing centers and authorities followed any lead they came across. To complicate matters, itcopy cati, crimes soon followed. In one instance 'another pain reliever was laced with strychnine and in another, acid was mixed with eyewash. Several weeks after the recall Tyle- nol was reintroduced to the public with a new threefold safety wrapping. Other corporations soon followed Mac- Neil Labs in instrumenting tamper- proof features.

Catcher Darrell Porter drove away with the cars as the series MVP and Manager Whitey Herzog,s Redbirds beat the Milwaukee Brewers a pitch at a time. It was a season when big league attendance was increasing almost as fast as Gaylord Perryls all-time win mark was. The 42-year-old ttAncient Mariner pitched his 300th career vic- tory in 1982. It was also a year for fury and. confusion in the N ational Football League. The NFL Players Association went on a 57-day walkout beginning September 21, that exacted some $210 million from the league,s clubs and more than $63 million from playersl pockets. The strike was caused by dif- fering views on the way a billion d01- lar television revenue pie should be cut. By end of the strike the NFLPA made many concessions to Commis- sioner Pete Rozelle and the club execs. In the Super Bowl Miamfs Killer Bees got stung by the Hogs of Wash- ington by a 27-17 margin.

Among the top-rated college stars were Heisman winner Herschel Walker and Trumaine J ohnson. Repeated blows to the head of Duk Koo Kim only 19 seconds into the 14th rounds of a WBA lightweight championship bout by Ray Mancini killed the South Korean fighter and changed the face of boxing. Kim,s death was follov'ved by the imposition of a discretionary standing eight count and a 12-round limit on all title fights. Following a May 9, 1982 operation to repair a detached retina suffered during training Sugar Ray Leonard announced that he would retire from professional boxing. Adorning a tuxedo the 26-year-old Leonard stepped into the ring for the last time for a media-event to an- nounce that his five year middle weight career would end. December 2, 1982 a man that could, at best, be described as a tllegend in his own mind7 revealed that he would no longer commentate boxing matches. Year in Review Wide World Photo LONDON-Their Royal Highnesses The Prince and Princess of Wales are shown with their infant son, Prince William, who was born June 21. Announcing his retirement in the Washington Post, Howard Cosell said, tTtn not doing anymore boxing . . . I donlt want to be a part of the hypoc- risy, the sleaziness . . . Fm worn out by it. D Potpourri Two questions pondered in the minds of those who observe Great Britain,s Royal Family this past year. When would the Prince and Princess of Wales add a new generation to the Year in Review Royal lineage and what would they name the child. Both of those questions were an- swered on June 21 when Prince Charles and Princess Diana gave birth to Prince William. The appearance of Prince Charles, successor, however, was not Englandls most prominent story. Headlines tainted with phrases like ttTrouble in Paradisell and ttPlease, Di, donlt . . . Youlre Being Stupid crowded the front pages of many of Englandls tabloids. By the years end the Reagan .Ad- ministration had accepted resigna- tions from Security Advisor Richard Allen, Transportation Secretary Drew Lewis and Secretary of State Alexan- der Haig. John W.

D Bombs over Bread When it came down to making a choice between social programs and arms, the Reagan Administration came across loud and clear, choosing bombs over bread. The Reagan camp cut hundreds of millions of dollars from social pro- grams for the second straight year while adding nearly $500-bi11ion to de- fense programs. The Administrations projected $1.6 trillion military build up would amount to about $20,000 for each US. 16 J, household over the next five years. When questioned about where money would go several analysts noted that men in the service would receive pay hikes, and said that much of the money would be invested in develop- ment of new technology. The Equal Rights Amendment met a prolonged end on June 30. Despite polls showing that two-thirds of all men and women supported ERA the effort for passage fell short of the 38 states necessary for ratihcation. In the end, the pro-ERA movement employed theatrics such as chaining themselves together and fasting in the Illinois state house, and shrewd poli- ticking. Many anti-ERAiers were exuberant as the Witching hour on J une 30 came and went. ERA is dead for now and forever in this century? cried Phyllis Schlafly, president of Eagle Forum, a right-wing pressure group. But it was not really dead. Two weeks later the constitutional amend- ment was reintroduced by a joint resolution of 157 congressmen and 46 senators and the ratification process begins again. Despite the imprisonment of Soli- darity Trade Union leaders the strug- gle for economic and political freedom continued in 1982. On August 31, the second anniversary of the independent trade unions birth, millions of P0- landts oppressed appeared to be on the verge of confrontation with the Soviet-installed J aruzelski regime. Authorities resorted to water can- nons and tear gas to maintain the members of the outlawed union. Mem- bers were unified in their attempts to shut down the government, who, in- turn attempted the same. The result of the protest in 54 Polish cities was the arrest of more than 4,000 rioters, the deaths of five and the injury of 148 policemen. After squelching strike attempts in late October and early November the government released Solidarity leader Lech Walesa on November 15. He promptly renewed the unions pledge to protest.

Talk of cutbacks, callbacks, layoffs, a convention center and a building in Marion called Bracy were SIU-Cls top stories of 1982 and 1983. In February of 1983 Governor J ames Thompson, in his State of the State address, proposed $2 billion in tax increases for the upcoming year. SIU Chancellor Kenneth Shaw felt that Thompson was justified in his call for more taxes and said that improvement of the states economic condition would better the universities position in edu- cation, research and related fields. A month later, on March 2, Thomp- son threw Illinois universities a curve when he introduced an austerity budget to the General Assembly call- ing for $107 million reduction in higher educations 1984 budget. Shaw responded to the budget cuts, estimated between $13 million and $15 million by SIU-C fiscal planners, by saying that the university may have to lay off faculty and staff and impose across-the-board salary cuts or raise tuition by as much as $800 a year. On March 10, 1983 action that would have shortened the SIU-C employee work week from 40 hours to 37V2 hours was tabled by the Board of Trustees. First proposed in November of 1981, the move was tabled without further action. On the same day, SIU-C officials announced that tuition rates would go up approximately ten percent for the summer term. Although fall tuition hikes were undetermined, April bul- letins suggested that the administra- tion was looking at a possible 60 per- cent increase. Such a move would set full-time in-state rates at $1308 per semester. . Despite all the talk of budget reduc- tions the University planned to spend $175,000 during the next fiscal year for general improvement in and around the campus community. In mid-March the University asked. the Illinois Capital Development Board Year in Review to examine purchase options on three area buildings for potential book storage sites that might relieve over- crowding at Morris Library. One of three places under considera- tion for the $1.6 million CDB appro- priation was the Bracy building, a 60,000 square foot warehouse near Marion. Other possible storage sites were the Wal-Mart Discount Cities store on West Main in Carbondale and the Baptist Student Center near campus. As the year progressed Bracy be- came a heated student issue and what President Albert Somit called a ttmoral obligationt, for the school. The CDB tat press timel had made no decisions on the purchase. On April 21, 1983 the university appointed Committee on Academic Priorities recommended that eight de- gree programs in seven areas he cut and 24 degree programs in 17 other areas would be reduced. The committee recommended that two degree programs in both computer science and physics be the only four of nearly 200 University programs to be enhanced. Programs recommended for cuts included Religious studies, Latin American studies, Law En- forcement, Foreign Languages and Literature. 19 J ohn Guyon, vice president for aca- demic affairs and research, set aside a reserve of $350,000 from 13 different areas of university studies; ranging from $9000 for General Academic Pro- grams to $53,000 by the College of Liberal Arts. In early February the administra- tion moved to hold diplomas from seniors with outstanding billseand add a 1.5 percent monthly service charge on unpaid balances. Beginning with the SalukisT first home football game on September 18, 1982 spectators were discouraged from bringing alcoholic beverages into Mc- Andrew Stadium. Enforcement of a long standing ban on booze inside the stadium Twill be tightened, university officials said. The reason for the enforcement was 'listed as the 11potential for several in- cidents in the past? Despite efforts by SIU Police, brown bottles, pints, coolers, kegs and as- sorted variations of alcoholic contain- ers found their way into McAndrew. The season ended without incident. Despite unfavorable student reac- tion, SIU-C,S School of Agriculture sold all but six of its 29 horses in late October. The lot was sold for $8,598.15, for an average price of nearly $478. The sale was an attempt to off-set the $72,000 reduction of the School of Agriculturets budget. The program cost was estimated by the college to be as much as $40,000 per year. It began at 3:16 p.m. on May 29, 1982. It lasted only thirty minutes but southern Illinois worst tornado in re cent memory ripped through Marion, causing property damage estimated at $85 million, killing 10, injuring nearly 150 and leaving 450 persons homeless. Shawnee Village Apartments were the hardest hit; seven died there. One of those injured was Methodist minis- ter, Carl Hearns. He left Marion Me- , A .e . 91 WIIECAOHOLIC GES rrlarge Co 58. 01' 0001 tdlums morial Hospital six months after a water heater nearly crushed him to death in his home. Two of Marionts shopping centers were among those hardest hit by the May storm. Even though state and 1 federal agencies poured millions into renovation and reconstruction, busi- ness officials predicted that more than $3 million was lost in sales in the Town and Country Shopping Center and Westmore Plaza. ALLOWED Q? k115- Year in Review Governor J ames Thompson and U.S. Supreme Court J ustice Harry A. Blackmun were the guests of honor at the September 18, 1982 dedication of the Hiram H. Lesar Law School. Blackmun, a native of southern Illinois, was the keynote speaker at the morning ceremony dedicating the $7.6 million building. On her 25th birthday, Sharon Hutcherson won a run-off election for the Student, Trustee position on the Board of Trustees. The second-year photo by Brian Howe Year in Review law student beat five opponents with 1,010 votes in the February 22, 1983 election. The position was vacated in J anuary by Stan Irvin, who resigned to work in the J ackson County State's Attorneyls office. Early in the spring semester the campus and community learned of the perils of Harold McFarlin, SIU-C his- tory professor on leave because of con- gestive heart failure. McFarlin had become more than the victim of heart problems, he be- came a victim of the hard economic times. The 14-year professor of Rus- sian history was waiting for the $80,000 required by the Stanford Uni- versity Medical Center for a heart transplant. A transplant which would decide if McFarlin lived beyond the year that doctors had given him. As the semester progressed a com- mittee was formed, based in the his- tory department, and groups like the Inter-Greek Council organized car- washes and benefits for McFarlin; raising thousands. Among those ef- forts was that of pop group REO Speedwagon who played a charity basketball game against staff mem- bers of WCIL-FM. They raised more than $2000. By the semestefs close, the Harold McFarlin Fund had grown beyond the $40,000 level and was matched by additional funds from a grant from the National Institute of Health. And on May 11, he boarded a plane for California where he would get his new heart.

El 21 A TRIBUTE TO Story By Joyce Vonderheide During his term as president of SIU-C from 1948 to 1970, Delyte W. Morris changed a small teachefs col- lege of 3,000 students into an interna- tionally known university of almost 24,000 students. He was man un- afraid to work and make his dreams for southern Illinois come true. Concerned with helping students, he promoted financial aid and stu- dent work programs and constructed buildings that were accessible to the physically handicapped. In honor of the late president, April 9, 1983 was set aside as a day of trib- ute. The University held an open house featuring campus tours, exhib- its and musical performances by sev- eral campus groups. Various people who worked with Morris during his tenure as SIU president reminisced about him before the highlight of the day, the unveiling of a bronze statue of Morris. 22 ttMorris took a crumbling brick and made a mansion, J ohn Lonergan, an arrival to SIU during the early years of Morris term, said. When Morris began, the faculty, staff and commu- nity were used to doing without. Mor- ris changed their ideas of the status quo and made them accept ideas of expansion. He struggled to get dormi- tories, water lines, police and fire departments and more buildings and services. Lonergan was one of several people who recalls Morris bicycling across campus with his wife Dorothy and stopping to talk with students and staff. ttHe was a president who could be touched? Lonergan said. lTie was not in an ivory tower set aside from other people. He was part of the campus? Seymour Bryson, associate dean of the College of Human Resources, re- called Morrist warmth and his work photo by Doug Janvrin in attracting minority, international and disabled students to the university. ttAll of America has benefited from his willingness to work against odds, to build a university that would pro- vide an essential service to black Americans and other underrepre- sented groups? Bryson said. 1tSIU under Morris became known as an institution where you would be wel- comed and be given an opportunity to be judged not by the color of your skin but by your abilities? William Norwood, a 1959 SIU-C graduate, said that in the late 1950s only three other major universities other than SIU-C had more than a five percent black student population. Remembering Morris as a vision- ary, Norwood, a nineyear Board of Trustees member, said, ttHe left a spirit of lean do, He left a spirit of we together can accomplish anything? News Betty Mitchell, assistant professor of English, remembered Morris as a problem-solver, planner anti builder. Mitchell said Morris personified the word tubiquitous, because his work extended beyond the campus to the entire southern Illinois community. Calling Morris a giant in higher education, Board of Trustees member, Ivan Elliott, said, itHe moved forward aggressively and seized all available opportunities? In SIUis first 75 years, almost 5,000 students received degrees, Elliott said. When Morris retired in 1970, over 7,000 degrees were conferred. ttThe seeds he planted grew with unprecedented rapidity into a broad professional school program? Elliott said. ttOnly now do we realize how far ahead he planned? The statue of Morris, placed in the Hall of Presidents in the library hear- ing his name, was unveiled by Mor- News ris, widow Dorothy, son Peter and grandsons Brett and Trevor. Addressing the 500 people at the dedication ceremony, Peter Morris said, ttWe dedicate this statue as a symbol for a symbol. This becomes a symbol for the university that was developed for the people? The one-and-a-quarter lifesize statue was sculpted by Fredda Bril- liant, an internationally known artist who has sculpted such people as Mahatma Gandhi, R. Buckminister Fuller and Pandit N ehru. Brilliant and her husband, SIU-C professor emeritus Herbert Marshall, were good friends of Delyte and Dorothy Morris. itI watched what he did for the uni- versity? Brilliant said in an inter- view prior to the unveiling. 01 never saw anybody so conscientious. To him this university was the world. And I thoughtrthere should be a sculpture of him one day? photo by Doug Janvrin 23 Brilliant said Morris believed in giving everyone a second chance and wanted to make everyone happy. Next to Nehru, Brilliant said, til would rate him as one of the greatest men that Ilve known, and live met some very, very great men? Brilliant, who has lived in Carbon- dale for 14 years, began sculpting a clay model of the statue in April of 1969 in a small room in Woody Hall. She decided to put Morris in an academic gown and to end the statue just below the knees so the statue would remain timeless. Having Mor- ris in a suit or wearing shoes would make the statue old-fashioned in the future, she said. A specialist from New York then made a nine piece fiberglass cast of the sculpture, which was sent to the N oack Foundry in West Germany to be cast in bronze. Efforts to raise money for the statue began in 1974 and a contract between Brilliant and the SIU Foun- dation was signed in N ovember of 1982. Arrangements were then made to transport the sculpture, purchased through some 300 private contribu- tions to the Foundation, from West Germany to Carbondale. In Morris 1949 inaugural address, he said, tlBecause I believe in the moving power of education and the inherent and abiding worth of my own people, I accept the responsibili- ties of the complex and difficult burden you today place upon me, and look ahead with confidence. Morris remembered his responsibil- ity and the heroic-sized statue is a fit- ting remembrance for the great man who lived his dreams. 13 24 photo by Doug Janvnn photo by Doug Janvnn News h; h For the first time the Obelisk II Maga- zine Format Yearbook takes a look at research projects and at the Office of Research Development and Administra- tion, who coordinates such operations at SIU-C. We will highlight four of the Universityls on-going projects. These projects have gained a spot in the public eye over the last year and, we felt, merited attention. Keep in mind that these projects are only the tip of a large iceberg. We live in a time when new break- throughs in medicine, technology and human resources are daily occurences. Col- leges and universities across the nation and around the world play an important role in such advancements and SIU-C is no exception. Whether it be teaching people to fly in Nepal, putting books on the shelves of the library, researching feeding methods for farm animals or paying some SIU-C stu- dents for student work, the Office of Re- search Development and Administration headed by Dr. Michael R. Dingerson is involved. The call for such an office within the SIU system first came during the days of Presi- dent Delyte W. Morris. Morris belieVed that SIU-C should play a role in the develop- ment of southern Illinois. In reality, the Morris concept of community service trans- lates into seemingly small but important Features tasks like numbering houses in some of the smaller towns of the region or conducting water and soil tests at abandoned strip mines. Although there is no cost to such patrons the overall price tag for all these projects was more than $30-milli0n in fiscal year 1982; an increase of $2.5 million over the previous year. Four hundred and fifty-eight separate donors, ranging from federal to state to private sources, supplied these monies in 1982. A large portion of those external dollars comes from corporations who hope to en- hance the learning environment of SIU-C students, according to Dr. Diane Gilliland. Gilliland, a corporate relations coordinator for the Coal Extraction and Utilization Research Center, said, itCorporations are interested in our graduates and want their training to be the bestfi While there is no denial of the advantages of research projects, such programs are threatened most by budget cutbacks. Stan- ley McAnally, vice president for university relations and development, said in Sep- tember of 1982 that Whel hoped to raise money from private sources, predominantly alumni and friends? He believes that he can reach a goal of $5-million a year through gifts and contributions. In 1981, the University collected more than $1- million from private sources. El 25 Linking the past to the future Imagine what life would be without blue-green algae. J ohn Yopp has tried, and he cant. Heis convinced that the tiny organ- isms, which first appeared on earth about two billion years ago during what geologist call the Pre-Cambrian Period, are probably responsible for the oxygen in the air we breathe. ttThereis very convincing evidence that those blue-green algae were the first organisms on earth to use photo- synthesis to produce oxygen, he said. But Yopp, a professor in SIU-Cls Department of Botany, is also con- vinced that the ancient plants may hold a key to production of more food in the future. The blue-green algae Yopp is talking about dontt bear much resemblance to the scum that fouls your home aquar- ium or blooms on polluted ponds. Aauseugow plAEG Kq cloud -26 Many species of the tiny plants seem a to have survived and flourished through the eons by adapting success- fully to conditions so dry and salty that less hardy plants would shrivel . and die. In fact, they sponge up water so efficiently that they,d literally explode in a fish tank. He thinks the characteristics have helped the algae survive may be part of the plants genetic heritage. If true, that fact could help agronomists breed hardier food crops sometime in the future. Yopp says fossils found by geolo- gists indicate that the primitive algae once literally blanketed the earth. Hels convinced that all modern plants which use photosynthesis to produce oxygen are genetically descended from them. ttWe,re breathing the results of their photosynthetic activity? he said. This combination of tolerance for arid, salty conditions and apparent genetic kinship to plants that lived billions of years ago fascinates Yopp and his research colleagues at SIU-C and the N ational Aeronautics and Space Administration tNASAl. NASA is funding a three-year, $250,000 study of the algae by Yopp and an SIU-C research team, aimed at making that connection. The blue-green algae are useful to Yopp and his colleagues because the plants are what scientists call hex- tremely conservative organisms? ttTheytre evolving very slowly or not at all, he said. Even under powerful electron micro- scopes, its all but impossible to tell a two-billion-year-old fossil algae from one fresh out of a laboratory flask, he says. This makes it possible to use algae grown in campus labs to study Features the genetic characteristics of their two-billion-year-old ancestors. Yopp and his research group are using 28 selected strains. If Yopp and his SIU-C colleagues are right when they theorize that todayts blue-green algae carry the same genes as their Pre-Cambrian forebears, it opens the possibility of using recombinant DNA techniques, or ttgene-splicing, to transfer the or- ganismst tolerance for arid surround- ings to modern plants such as corn or soybeans. If the idea works, it could mean more food for regions usually considered too dry to grow conven- tional crops. The three-year project is based heavily on nearly 10 years of NASA funded research conducted on blue green algae by Yopp and his SIUC co- investigators, physiologist Donald Miller and phycologist Donald Tin- dall, a specialist in algae. CI -University News Service Features Infant research finds answers How is language processed in the brain? Why are children able to pick up a language so quickly? Is there an innate component that gives some children a bias in learning a lan- guage? Wanting answers to these questions prompted a four-year study by Dennis and Victoria Molfese, SIU-C psychol- ogists. The Molfeses followed 60 chil- dren of low birth weight and normal birth weight from infancy to three years of age, analyzing brain wave tests and comparing those tests with language skills tests given to these children a year ago. The results show a strong correlation between the new- born infanfs brain wave pattern and the childrenis test scores three years later. Information from this and future studies could be a valuable assessment tool, enabling doctors to diagnose infants with language disabilities and hearing problems and correct the s problems. To analyze brain waves, electrodes are attached to the head and the. brains response to stimuli is recorded. A variety of vowel-consonant sounds were fed to newborns and amplified to see how the information was proc- essed. Babies who were able to differ- entiate between the sounds did better on the future language tests. The March of Dimes provided fund- ing for the project, wanting to know if there is a difference in language de- velopment between low birth weight tunder 5V2 poundsi and normal birth weight children. Dennis Molfese noted that people who have studied low birth weight In .9 c; o .. o J: n. x 3: III L o .2 : D babies in the past have tended to study those with additional problems trespiratory problems, for examplel, factors which may have led to the wrong conclusions. tlThe differences tin birth weightl donlt seem to mean a lot by the time the child is three. There arenlt many observable results, Mol- fese said. llWe controlled for these fac- tors in our experiment. If you can control factors like gestational age, the income level of parents, educa- tional level of parents, there isnt much difference? Controlling these variables enabled the Molfeses to test children of the same background. If funding is granted, Molfese hopes to rerun the study with infants of other backgrounds and see if the results hold. In studying the infants, clearance had to be given by the hospitals in- volved for the study. Women who had just given birth were interviewed and told about the research. If they were interested in having their child in the study, the infant was tested while in the hospital. Parents were allowed to observe the thirty to forty-five minute test, conducted at Carbondale Memo- rial and at Stanford in California. The babies were retested at six-month in- tervals and the data studied after each test. ttAt one point, our computer was broken for two years so we couldnlt analyze, we could only give the tests? said Molfese. The tests were completed a year and a half ago and analyzed in the year after the tests. Currently the responses are tape recorded, amplified, and brought back for analysis. Molfese and his col- leagues hope to adapt an Apple Com- puter so that only one machine is needed rather than bringing the re sponses back for analysis. Molfese became interested in the language process while a graduate student at Pennsylvania State where he received his masters in 1970 and 28 ne'nomazs aor Aq 010148 his doctorate in 1972. His wife, Vic- toria, also received her doctorate at Penn State 0979 after completing work for her masters at San Francisco State in 1970. The Molfeses each have their own research programs. Victoria, associate professor of psychology, has studied morbidity and the infants chances of . survival, the impact of fetal monitor- ing on parents, color perception in babies, and communication between the elderly. Dennis, professor of psy- chology, has researched neural lin-' guistics, how the brain is organized to process language, and has begun a long-term research project to study individuals from birth to age 80. While environmental factors are important in language development, the Molfesels study indicates that genetics may be a more important factor than previously thought. Their soon to be published research lindings could lead to procedures to correct and prevent language problems in the future. El -Joyce Vonderheide Features Dragline simulator-a miniature mine Southern Illinois is the only place in the world you can, with the slight- est stretch of your imagination, oper- ate a 40-million-pound coal mining dragline 14 stories high in a building no larger than a high school gym- nasium. You sit in a bonafIde Bucyrus-Erie dragline pilotls seat surrounded by bonafide Bucyrus-Erie controls in a room resembling as closely as possible a bonaiide dragline cab. As you ma- nipulate the controls you see a giant video screen an apparently huge boom and a toothed shovel swing and dig in what looks like an actual strip mine with farms and green hills around it. Features Behind you, a computer which can be programmed to imitate the actions of any of three makes of draglines keeps track of your errors and spits them out on command. To your right, in the corner, a much smaller Video screen waits to show you an instant replay of your mining operations. ttltls very realistic? said Keith Con- tor, an assistant professor in SIU-C;s department of technology. ttPeople will grab onto something to steady them- selves when they see the boom swing. Experienced operators say the stress and fatigue are the same as on a real draglinefl That may seem hard to believe, since the operators know that-rather than running a machine which is so expensive that major damage could put a small mine out of business- they are moving a boom and bucket no larger than the visible parts of a submarine periscope. The boom and bucket are suspended from a swivel in another room-a sort of sandbox with a painted striprnin- ing landscape for walls. Cameras at- tached to the base of the boom allow a magnified View of the scene and the digging to appear on the big screen in the mock cab-roomi ttThe picture may not be that good? Contor said, ttbut once people get 29 photo by Joe Szewculak going on the controls, they really get: ,involved. Some of the operators who were testing it for us would come in for an hour or two after hours just to play with it. And this was after they,d been working all day on a real drag- line. Theyld bring in their sons and friends, and teach them how a drag- lineis runfl Though it is easy to see the simula- tor as an expensive toy, Contor said it does serve a vital purposewtraining of people who plan to become dragline operators. At present, the only way to learn the operation of a dragline is to simply take over the controls of one-a haz- ardous business with a machine that lifts a million pounds of dirt in one load and moves it to a new site in less than 65 seconds. llSmall mistakes-a half full bucket -can cost from $800 to $1000fi Contor said. iiThere are no computers like the ones the simulator has in a real drag- line, nothing to tell you what to don .Youive got to develop a feel, learn to recognize visual cues like the shadows of the boom and bucket? McDonnell-Douglas developed the dragline simulator and outlines for a training program for the Department nelnoMazs aor Kq oioqd 30 of Energy. SIU-C researchers inher- ited the project when the University took over the DOE,S Carbondale Min- ing Technology Center. In addition to the original 10-day operatoris program, Contor and his associates are developing programs for mine supervisors and managers which will assist in increasing mine activity. liKnowing how a dragline works will give them a better idea of what they can expect of operators? Contor said, adding that a trainee is usually ltpretty good,, after 15 hours on the simulator uwithout any damage or operating costs? The simulator is the last stage in the training program. Trainees iirst study workbooks, slides and video- tapes pertaining to dragline operation. They then move to the iDynamics Concept Trainer? an uncomputerized dragline simulator a little taller than a man which works basically like toy cranes in carnival games. The DCT ' familiarizes the trainee with boom and bucket movement, and with the visual cues of bucket-position. A sandbox model of a strip mine is also provided to assist in short-term planning. Using handscoops, an op- erator can forecast how much dirt he can move and to where he can move it. Though dragline-operating is tithe cushy jobethe one miners wantfl Contor said it involves much more than the mere digging and dumping of dirt. iiOperators have to plan roads, soil placement and mine drainage, Contor said. To make this planning more complex, environmental regula- tions require that strip miners leave the mined area in a condition equal to a or better than its original condition. Training of dragline operators aside, the computerized simulator still proves useful. An operator who suf- fered a radiation burn in one eye used the simulator to learn if he would still be competent with a real dragline despite his impaired Vision. SIU-C psychologists monitor students who are running a simulator to collect data on stress reactions. As to why southern Illinois was chosen as the site of the only dragline simulator in existence, Contor said, itThis area is unique. There are only a few big draglines in operation and this is probably the highest concen- tration of them in the world. E! wKevin Eldridge Features Turning waste into profit It sounds like a tempest in a teapot and looks like a storm in a tube. Re- searchers at the School of Engineering call it a hydrocyclone and its turning coal waste into usable fuel. The hydrocyclone is being used by the researchers to salvage usable coal from waste piles. Presently, thousands of acres of coal wastes containing usable coal cannot be used because it contains pieces of rocks, clay, lime- stones, pyrites, and other particles that will not burn, according to Phillip K. Davis, professor and chairman of the Department of Engineering, Me- chanics and Materials. Basically, a hydrocyclone can be used to separate waste materials from a variety of materials such as coal or copper. The device is used to separate heavy particles from light particles, Davis said. Davis and his research team have been working on a project to reclaim unusable coal since September 1981. They believe that the hydrocyclone. can help the coal industry convert thousands of tons of coal tines into ??333 'JK e1? 25 3.355 g , Features usable fuel. Davis hopes to complete the project by August of 1983. A hydrocyclone is not complicated. It is a machine that makes cyclones- funnels that whirl around, pick things up and spit them out the top. Davis said the hydrocyclone creates a liquid cloud by pumping fluids at a high pressure into a cylinder. The two experimental hydrocyclones in the College of Engineering and Technol- ogy can be pressurized up to 30 pounds per square inch. One of the hydro- cyclones measures 11.5 inches in di- ameter and the other 5.5 inches. Centripetal force inside the whirling mass of liquid draws the coal particles into the vortex and out to the top of the cone through a collector pipe, Davis said. Heavier particles such as rocks and clay are forced to the walls of the cylinder and are eventually flushed through the bottom pipe. Davis said the process works be- cause coal is lighter than the waste particles separated from it. This dif- ference allows the hydrocyclone to separate coal from the rest of the slurry, he said. The larger hydrocyclone in use here has a capacity of up to 100 gallons of liquids per minute, Davis said. About .40 percent to 60 percent of coal may be extracted from the waste material. Davis said the researchers plan to try out different sizes and shapes of cylinders, collectors and bottom tubes to find a combination that will do the job most efficiently with the smallest amount of water and power. The hydrocyclone process is used not only in the coal and mineral in- dustries, but also in the paper, food and petroleum industries, Davis said. Because of the size of the hydro- cyclone does not determine efficiency, Davis said, there are no plans to acquire larger hydrocyclones. Assisting Davis in the project are several graduate and undergraduate students. One graduate student wrote his masteris thesis on the hydrocy- clone and left SIU-C last fall for a position with McDonnell Douglas in St. Louis. The project received a oneyear $10,000 grant from the Illinois Min- ing and Materials Resources Research Institute, and a two-year $184,647 grant from the Department of Energy. -William Jason Yong AUniversity Photo Service A 31 Story By Ramesh Loganathan Parent,s Day 1982 arrived in Car- bondale along with overcast, gloomy skies. Normally it would have meant staying indoors, but parents and stu- dents alike were determined not to let the weather deter them from enjoying the festivities. Parents from across the country took advantage of SIU-Cis annual event to take time away from home and venture to Carbondale. More than a vacation, the weekend gave them a chance to spend time with their stu- dents at Southern. The Student Programming Council and University Food Service arranged two buffet brunches for Saturday and Sunday, as well as a buffet dinner on Saturday evening. A style show spon- sored by the Clothing and Textile Club and piano music by Gus Pappelis pro- vided entertainment for the two brunches. J azz music group, Sapphire, performed for the Saturday dinner crowd gathering in Ballroom D of the Student Center. The main attraction of Parents Weekend is always the Parents Day football game. The game was prefaced by perfect landings on the McAndrew Stadium turf by members of the SIU-C Skydiving Club, their multi- colored parachutes adding a touch of color to an otherwise gray day. Parents anxious to see an action- packed college football game were obliged by the Salukis and Arkansas State Indians. After an evenly matched game, Arkansas State gained 32 a touchdown in the final few minutes to win: Victory over SIU. However, Saluki fans weren,t to be outdone and, in the spirit of fun, launched an attack on an unsuspecting Red Indian mas- cot. The mascot barely survived the ordeal with headband intact. At halftime, the Marching Salukis gave a firm performance. Their un- usual formations and well-executed music endeared them to the crowd. The parents of the day, Richard and Karen Zucco, from Washington, Ill., were presented flowers and an en- graved Paul Revere Bowl from Presi- dent Albert Somit at the games half- time ceremonies. The Zuccos were nominated by their daughter, Ronda, in an essay contest. Ronda,s essay was selected from 37 entries by a panel of 3 judges repre- senting students, faculty, and admin- istration on campus. Ronda, an SIU-C graduate student in Guidance and Counseling, felt that nominating them for ttParents 0f the Day was the best way to express her appreciation for all that they had done for her over the years. ttBoth of them have given me the love, understanding, reassurance and confidence to now lead my life but to always be a special part of theirs? she wrote.

My natural mother passed away shortly after I was born, so my father raised me by himself until he remarried when I was a sophomore in high school. He never dated until I entered high school, because he wanted to devote all his extra time to being a good parent. He did, however, spend much of his time working double shifts as a machine operator at Caterpillar Tractor Company in East Peoria, Illinois. He worked many long and hard hours in order to support me. I realize now that many times he went without to ensure thateI had enough food and clothing. Instead of sleeping between shifts, my father would read to me or help me with my school work. Although my father was never financially able to attend college, he always stressed the importance of an education. Now that I am working on my Masters degree in Guidance and Counseling, I appreciate what he has taught me in terms of values. Whether he agreed or disagreed with my ideas and beliefs, he has always given me the emotional support I have needed. He is a very strong minded yet sensitive and caring individual. He generates a certain warmth and love that always exists whether I am at Features home with him or away at school. He is always there whether I need someone to listen or to just give me a hug. He shares and takes interest in my good times as well as my bad. My father remarried in J une of 1975. My stepmother is a professor of sociology and psychology at Illinois Central College. She is an intelligent woman with a charming personality. She is very sincere and genuine in her relations with others and a pleasure to talk with. Although I never regretted not having a mother as a child, I am now glad that I have one. She took the extra time to know me, to understand me, and to love me. She had always wanted a child but could not give birth, so she enjoyed being a part of our lives. She, like my father, is always very busy but she lets me know that she is there when I need her. She is patient and takes the time to listen and to offer advice. Both of them have given me the love, understanding, reassurance, and confidence to now lead my own life but to always be a special part of theirs. I feel that these qualities define a ttgoodll parent. I also feel that nominating them for Parents of the Day, is the best way to express by appreciation for all that they have done over the years.

A HOM ECOMING MARDI Story By Kevin Eldridge sk any dog and his brother what Mardi Gras means and nine times out of ten, in their best Hunter Thompson snarls, theyill tell you, ttMardi Gras is decadent and depraved? Nine times out of ten theyill be right. But this year,s Homecoming at SIU-C, thematically Mardi Gras, turned out to be number ten-the time every dog and his brother was wrong. Scarcely a whisper of decadence, scarcely a speck of depravity sur- faced. Perhaps students were playing it sly and crafty, biding their time until Carbondalds Halloween, widely billed as the Midwestern Mardi Gras. Perhaps the presence of visiting alumni tempered the atmosphere. Or perhaps there is simply a niceness in photo by Mark Crost Features GRAS life that balances its vulgarity. Nicwtake it whatever way you will-is the only word for Homecom- ing ,82. A combination pep rallywsnake dancewboniire on Friday night sparked off the weekendis events.

Assorted politicians tossed pamphlets to viewers. Twenty-four high school bands vied for prizes in the procession. The hometown Carbondale Marching Ter- riers drum'med out their competition for the f1rst-p1ace award. In the float competition, University Park took top honors, while Phi Sigma Kappa copped first among decorated cars. All nice stuff, those floats and bands, that candy. But the crass soul of Mardi Gras wasntt completely absent. The SIU-C rugby team strutted in transvestite garb, baring flat breasts and hooting at soldiers-a premoni- tion, surely, of some future outburst of depravity. Disquieting, those sultry ruggers. 39 photos by: Chino Barreto David Booton Mark Crost Sharon Shaw The football Salukis eased Home- coming festivities to a close with a 21- 9 triumph over Indiana State. Home- town Victories, especially during Homecoming, are the American equivalent of Princess Diana: nice, very nice. But this particular victory was messily won in a slow, hap- hazard game. Winning was nice, but the process of it was all too bland; it was even, in view of Homecomingts intrinsically inspirational atmos- phere, slightly depressing. The game failed to fully dispel the threat of those ruggers and wardheel- ing politicians, who were, doubtless, 40 harbingers of the Carbondale Hallo- ween celebration less than a week away. Balance is the key. Homecoming served as a sort of inoculation, a hair- curling dose of niceness to counter that upcoming spree of decadence and depravity, the true and infamous Midwestern Mardi Gras. Balance! Thats the ticket. When Di and Charles minced into the limelight, remember, they rode the news seesaw with riots. And remem- ber, too, what the old folks say: nine time out of ten, every dog and his brother will have their day.

They had just performed their version of the N ational Anthem at the second game of the World Series before a crowd of 53,723. When the Salukis began playing, they brought a new dimension to the World Series. For the flrst time in the Series, 80-year history, the N ational Anthem was played as an instrumental, instead of being sung by a celebrity. It was also a new experience for the fans. The Saluki version, officially known as tIA Salute to America? open- ing with strains of uAmerica the Beautiful, confused the unsuspecting crowd. Features When the solo trumpets of Tony Baca and Jon Patton s began the National Anthem following a timpani roll, the crowd began to catch on. As the full band began to play, the crowd was at full attentiveness. Baca, the first soloist, was quite matter-ofvfact following his performance before an estimated television crowd of 10 million. tTve played it better, said Baca, ubut I was not conscious of the the television cameras.

But once we got on the field, I just blocked everything out. Although many members of the band regretted not being able to stay for the game, most were ecstatic at just being able to perform at the World Series. 1:1 AL CO rbomdo 9 style- women, women are COTS, omd youlre known for 0 sense of survival Story By Kevin Eldridge llWatch out. This weekend is Halloween and all the crazies are out, especially here.

Donlt take any Tylenol or other dangerous drugs from strang- iOW -EN where men are incidence of tampering with Halloween candy. By some, at least, this issue was summarily skirted. One student said, iiI wasnit expecting to have trick-or-treaters, so I didnit have any candy for the ones I did have. I gave them quarters instead. They said a lot of people had given them money rather than candy? On South Illinois Avenue, revellers took the Tylenol slay- ings in stride. There-where cat-women prowled among Arabs, waddling Chaplins, and rov- ers. Show up here Monday in one piece. Not your typical prescription for Halloween caution, that, but a fit- ting preface for All Hallows Eve in Carbondale, especially in the wake of the Tylenol cyanide murders. Carbondale is infamous for play- ing the reluctant and unofiicial host of an annual, wild and drunken street-celebration in honor of Hal- loween. The Midwestern Mardis Gras, some insightful and glib soul christened it a few years back. Annually, as October expires, stu- dents and professional drinkers journey to Carbondale from all points of the compass to share with their local counterparts the simple ing quartets of Marx brotherse giant bottles of Extra-Strength Ty- lenol trundled about dispensing bogus capsules, and a somber cor- tege of mourners stalked through the drunks bearing with them a casket marked Tylenol victim number 83, Also taken in stride was Carbon- dalels answer to the sidewalk uri- nals of Paris: good, dark American allies. Unless you were born in a bar or restaurant fronting on South Illinois Avenue, it is highly un- likely you saw the inside of one during the Midwestern Mardi Gras, much less gave their plumbing a workout. Revellers filled those es- photo by Mark Crost pleasures of reeling in altered states down South Illinois Avenue and, in some cases, bending the law until it breaks. Lunacy is expected, even encouraged, and curbed only by individual taste and highly outnumbered patrolmen. This year, with tales of the Tylenol deaths still trickling through the media, HaIIOWeen lunacy took on a nervous-if not a grim-edge. A disc-jockey for Carbondaleis WCIL-FM wondered over the air how the poisonings would affect the 44 tablishments like gallons of malt poured into pint mugs. The bladders of few could endure the near endless wait for essential fixtures. And allies and shadowed nooks were hosed down with a vengence all Halloween. Prior to this years celebration, Undergraduate Student Organization President J erry Cook attempted to stem the approaching golden tide by proposing the installment of 20 continued Features portable chemical toilets along South Illinois Avenue dur- ing Halloween. However, the Carbondale City Council turned down the proposal. arguing that the ttporta-pottiesl, Carbondalets answer to the sidewalk urinals of Paris: good, dark American alleys. would be vandalized and possibly passed over the heads of celebrants like girls at a pep rally. Said Cook, ttThe city administrators do not want to adopt any measures which would appear as though they are condoning Halloween? Cook, of course, was not referring to Halloween as a holiday but to the Midwestern Mardi Gras. continued During this yearls celebration, in the midst of a crowd of about 15,000, Carbondale police made 28 arrests for, among other things, aggravated battery, assault and battery, un- lawful use of weapons, retail theft, theft by possession, possession of a controlled substance and delivery of a controlled substance. However, police favorably compared this number of arrests to the 32 arrests made during the 1981 celebration in a crowd of similar size. 2The city administrators do not want to adopt any measures which would appear as though they are condoning Halloween? -Jerry Cook, USO president According to Nikki Nance, nursing supervisor at Car- bondale Memorial Hospital, about the same number of Halloween-related injuries were treated this year as in 1981, when over 100 people sought treatment. The Monday following the 1982 celebration, Bill Lewis, upon surveying his intact short-story students, gave them a post-Halloween welcome you could have heard only in Carbondale. ttHeyf he said, llyou all made it in one piece.

N elson does a show of juggling, jokes, magic and mime. photo by Doug Janvrin Features iiItis a hobby turning into an obses- sionf, N elson said. Nelson taught himself to juggle about two and a half years ago. He started with three ten- nis balls, then began juggling clubs and a variety of other things. tiltis taking up more and more of my time? he said. iTll juggle any- thing that isntt nailed down. And that is no exaggeration. He juggles pingpong balls, flaming torches, bowling balls, softballs, axes, machetes, fireballs, clubs, rubber chickens, and even hamburgers. N elson is quick to point out that practice is the key to juggling. But photo by Doug Janvrin admits that all of that practice some- times gets boring. ttYou practice and practice. You get bored with what youire doing so you try to think of other things that you can do? he said; NI try to tell jokes while Pm juggling or juggle new things? N elson often makes his craft sound easy to the layman. He used this ability when he taught a juggling class as part of the New Horizons series held in the Student Center. ttThe class met two hours a week for six weeks. Everyone was juggling 51 within the first half-hourf he said. He begins by teaching the juggler- to-be simple patterns with just one ball. Then two balls are employed. Finally, three balls are attempted and more complicated patterns are learned. ttI know 200 different juggling pat- terns. I was bored one day and I just started counting them? N elson said. ttPractice is all it is. You dontt have to be coordinated? Some of N elsonts routines appear to be foolish, if not dangerous. He some- times juggles fireballs or flaming torches, and even bowling balls. ttThe fireballs are balls of cotton that Itve soaked in a flammable liquid then I light and juggle them? he said. But the real danger according to N elson does not come from being burned-at least not by the flames. photo by John Racine photo by Doug Janvrin Features Features photo by Doug Janvrin ttIt is dangerous on stage because there is a big risk involved. It,s a risk to the performefs ego. Three balls is just as dangerous to me as a bowling ball, Nelson said. But Nelson has a goal in mind. He hopes to combine his skills as a jug- gler with wirewalking and a lot of enthusiasm to fulfill his dream of becoming a circus clown. qu trying to get into the clown college with the Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey circus? he said. Thatls not an easy thing to do. The clown school only takes 60 hopefuls out of the 5000 applicants annually. The clown school is nine weeks of intensive training-10 hours a day, six days a week. ttSixty hours a week and on the seventh day you,re not resting. Youlre watching films of past performers. So, youlre always learning? Nelson said. thhen you get out of the school youlll be a professional performer? Nelson auditioned for the clown school when the circus was at SIUC last fall. Helll find out in August whether or not he has been accepted by the clown college, to begin in September. itYou have to be what theylre look- ing for. Basically, you have to have the right mental attitude to spend nearly all year on the road and to do show after show. You have to be right mentally and physicallyfl he said. tTd love to tour with them at least a year. It would be such a good expe- rience and a good way to improve my skills? Nelson said. ttYould be work- ing all the time. During the free times when you,re not performing yould get bored and you could practice? Clowning around has become a way of life for Dana Nelson, and he wants to keep it that way. iiItis something I love to do. A lot of people choose to be performers. Pm a jugglerfi Nelson said.

Some people find her fascinating; others would rejoice if they knew theyid never see her again. Some think shes funny; others are horriiied by her. Why does this woman get noticed? Its not her con- versation, in fact, she never speaks. NS not the way she moves, because she never moves. Rather, she stands in the Student Center, bald and misshappen and stark naked, day after day. This woman is the Female Figure, the bronze-colored statue on the second floor of the Student Center. Many students pass by the statue every day. Some chuckle and utter some comical remark under their breath. Others give a quick glance and look away. Some are so accustomed to her being there or are in such a hurry that they donlt bother to look at the work. Others have probably conditioned themselves not to glance up because they know she is there. ttThat thing is so ugly? one passerby remarked to her friend. ttThey ought to turn it around? Martha Dietzen, a sophomore at SIU-C, thinks the Female Figure, also known as the Yin Lady, has value as an art piece and should remain in place. wIt,s interesting. Itls embarrassing? she said. ttYou shouldnlt be embarrassed to look at it but most people are? A Student Center worker named Terri, who was too embarrassed to give her last name, thinks that the statue is ttdisgracefulf, thhy should it be here? she asked, shaking her head. She wouldnlt give a reason for her opinion but left the impression that the statue degrades women or that men might enjoy seeing the statue but not women. Anothern student, Ron, said that he didn,t care one way or the other whether the statue goes or stays, but he, too, refused to give his last name. tiltis up to each individualf, he commented. uSome might think its art. Some might not? And he began to read the paper in hope that he wouldnlt be asked any more questions. Terry McBride, an SIU-C alumnus, thinks that the Female Figure depicts the long term effects of dorm food. ttDefmitely a work of art. Whether its good or bad is another story? McBride chuckled as he examined the statue. ttSheis deformed out of shape, and not symmetrical. Besides that, shels pregnant? To Lyle Maloe, a second year SIUC student, the Female Figure is ttbizzare? He scarcely notices the statue when he walks by and does not see much value in it as an art piece. The creator of this controversial work of art is Preston J ackson, an SIUC alumnus from Decatur. He did his graduate work in sculpture at the University of Illinois, receiving his masters degree in 1971. After having taught at Millikin University and the Lakeview Center Art School, J ackson presently teaches sculpture, drawing and design at Western Illinois University. He has sculpted works for the University of Illinois and the Decatur Salvation Army building. J ackson has exhibited his works in various places in the Midwest and still does one-man shows. He currently lives in Peoria. The Female Figure, worth $2000, was created from welded auto bumpers. Brandt Pfeifer, a student in one of J acksonls classes at Western, likes the way the statue is designed. ttPreston goes after the human form a lot, Pfeifer said. gHe gets into life, lives life to the fullest and advises his students to do the same? Pfeiferls sister Beth, is not offended by J ackson,s work. tilts a statue that people talk about. N o matter how many times you see it, it looks different? she observed. The art piece, part of the University Museum Collection, was purchased with a grant from the Illinois Arts Council. According to Evert J ohnson, curator of the University Museum, an acquisitions committee decides and has the final say over what goes into the museum collection. The museum does not receive tax funds, budgeting funds, or any state money for purchasing art work. ttThe money has to come from outside gifts or a grant, J ohnson stated. The Female Figure, a temporary exhibit, is on tlextended loan, to the Student Center. Kay Pick Zivkovich, arts and crafts coordinator for the Student Center, is one person on the committee that selects art work for the Student Center. From time to time, the museum curator will ask the committee if an art piece can be displayed in the Center. ttThe art work is there so students will appreciate it more? Zivkovich explained. ttBut students tend to be art critics. They either love it or they hate it? Most students, whether they love or hate the statue, think that it should remain in its position in the Student Center. As one student casually observed, ttSomeone should dress up like that for Halloween? E! 54 Features photo by David McChesney N. 5 Am .. HI!

Story by John Racine The SIU Press is located hundreds of miles from any other book pub- lisher of its kind, in an area that, though it is not economically rich and receives little national attention, has considerable historical significance and natural resources of both eco- nomic importance and scenic beauty. University Press, in operation since 1959, will publish its one-thousandth title in the fall of 1983. A small land- mark: even more so when considering that over half of them are still in print. Looking back on SIU Press 26- years as a publishing house, Director Kenney Withers remembers when people were more likely to choose a title by J ames J oyce over one by Stephen King. ttThe field didnlt always use to be all that competitive. The market was big enough and there were plenty of scholars writing. But times have changed. The num- ber of scholarly readers and writers have been declining. However, despite being located in what one writer la- bels a ttsad backwater? the Press has gained a high degree of notoriety. Southern Illinois University Press is rated in the top one-third of the more than 70 university presses across the nation. Each year Univer- sity Press publishes 50 texts and consistantly wins awards from mid- western and regional publishing as- sociations. At a time when the scholarly book market is receding the Press has managed to find success in marketing their products. Each year the Press returns eighty percent of the near $1- million budget through sales alone. One figure that notes SIU Press, standing in the publishing world is a ten percent international sales rate. University Press books can be found on shelves in Moscow, China, France, Great Britain as well as some of the smaller provinces of South America. The Press not only markets its productse-both books and recordsein foreign lands but also reprints many popular Asian and European texts. Once a book or potential series is selected it is subjected to a six month period of production as well as scru- tiny by the editors. After a script is checked for mar- ketability it is given to one of the Press four editors for editing and rewrite. tlAfter about a month the edi- tor sends the edited material to the author, says editor Stephen Smith. ttThe author takes another month to make revisions and then sends it back to us? Smith, with the University Press for 13 years now, says that each edi- tor is assigned 8 to ten scripts a year. More complicated books, the Dewey 57 series as an example, take more time and attention. After the final draft is pieced to- gether it is sent to the production staff; When the book is pasted up by the staffean assistant editor, student workers and one intern-it is proof- read and the books cover design is finalized. Outside designers and edi- tors are sometimes employed in these areas. While the production of the book is underway the marketing department is fast at work. A technique known as target marketing is used to pin-point the best channels through which the books can be distributed. Several complimentary copies are sent out to book review publications and notable newspapers and maga- zines. A favorable review by a big name publication greatly increases the chances of success for a Univer- sity Press publication. When the orders begin to come in, several warehouse workers, under the direction of Kenny Corwell, box the books and send them to customers. What volumes are not moved from the shelves immediately are stored in a 9000-square foot warehouse adjoin- ing the Press production facilities. Corwell said the biggest part of the job is inventorying the more than 600,000 volumes each year. itSince it would be impossible to inventory every title at once? he said, iiwe do about one hundred titles at a time from October until J anuary every year? Withers, in his third year with the Press, says that SIU Press has prob- ably grown ahead of the industry but is still hampered by a limited market. To compensate for lost dollars it has, in recent years, turned to works by bigger name authors such as the late J ohn Gardner and published series in areas such as Science Fiction in hopes of drawing additional dollars. iiThe market has, at best, not in- creased, he said. ttSo another way we try to compensate for some of the lost market is to print textbooks. Again, these are for a limited market? Another source of income has been the selling of rights and excerpts of works. 080 far we haven,t been af- fected by the budget cutbacks to insti- tutions like the National Endowment for the Arts? he said. When present and projected cut- backs begin to take effect Withers does not thing the Press will be hurt. iiWeire pretty economical. I think that we would just have to cut the number of books that we do. Thatts hard be- cause cutting back on your books cuts back on your money?

The quality. 11Uni- versity presses still maintain a very high degree of quality? he said. liHowever, university presses are like commercial presses in that there is a scramble for good manuscripts. Looking to the future, Withers would like to expand the Press, pro- duction staff to include an in-house book designer. But, the number one priority is to expand their production system from hand-processed to an electronic one. Withers expects the move to be a totally computerized system by about fiscal year 1984, if funding allows. An area targeted for improvement is the number of disciplines that books are published in. The present figure is 15. Withers would like to see that number decrease. One way that the Press saves money is by using educators from within the university as advisors. By using this source, the Press is better able to scout the market for material. These educators also provide one- third of the Press annual output. Other state universities, such as the University of Illinois and Northern, provide a similar publishing outlet for professors and other researchers. As only one of three in Illinois Withers feels the SIU Press publishes more photo by Doug Janvnn Kathy Giencke mbovel does design work on some of the 50 books that the Press publishes each year. than any of its two competitors. El rGrant to Dewey. . . The success of scholarly books are measured by the reviews they receive and by their sales. While few books achieve success, in both definitions, those that do are labeled best-sellers and money- makers. SIU Press does not boast many best-sellers or money-makers. In part because they operate within a limited market and in part because the hrst publication of a work only goes as high as 2,000 copies. llLand Between the Rivers? by C. William Horrell, Henry Dan Piper and John W. Voigt, is one of the Press success stories. Now in its first run as a paperback, the pictorial guide to southern Illinois has had three printings as a hardback edition since its introduction in 1973. The 201-page book is full of black-and-white photos that typify life in southern Illinois. Highlighted by keasy-reading copy the book guides a reader from Bald Knob to the iipopcorn capital of the world,, to the state fair in DuQuoin. Then there are series such as The London Stagell which exist only as a tool for eighteenth century stage scholars. The 9-volume work covers the period from 1660 to 1800 and is a compilation of old plays, theatri- cal and newspaper diaries of the day. Many of the early volumes are now out of print and commanding high prices on the rare-book market: and are under revision. Two series of particular national value are 11The Papers of Ulysses S. Grant? edited by J ohn Y. Simon, and 11The Works of John Dewey? edited by Jo Ann Boydston. The appearance of volumes 11 and 12 in the Grant series represents the half-way point in the works. The Press is in the process of printing the last 16-volumes of a 36-v01ume series on the works of Dewey. El J ohn Racine W Features 59 Story By Thomas Sparks Princeton has its Tiger; B.C. has its Eagle Rutgers is the Queensman; a title truly regal But from frigid New York City to Kentucky,s old Paduchee Thereis just one burning question, ilwhat the hell is a Saluki? So queried J erry Isenburg of the Newark Star-Ledger when the Salukis made their appearance at the NIT in March of 1967. Isenburg is definitely not alone. Wherever an SIU stu- dent goes, someone is bound to ask. Even alumni iind they still encounter this problem years after graduation. Next time it happens to you, simply show the unknowledgable person this article. According to Websterls, the Saluki is an ancient, arabic, breed of tall, slender, swift-footed, hunting dog with keen eyesight, long, silky ears and tail and with a smooth coat ranging from white or cream to black or black and tan. The Saluki, nicknamed 9E1 Hor,l-the Nobel One-has been around almost as long as anyone can remember and weire talkini long-about 6500 BC. Ancient Arabs wor- shipped him. They carved pictures of him, mummiiied him, and wrote odes to him. Why? Because he can hunt almost anything and hes good at it. The Saluki hunts mainly by eyesight and can hit top speed in almost no time, which by most estimates, is some- where around 45 m.p.h. The dog is a hunting machine, bred imostly to chase down desert gazelles, which are no slouches themselves in the world of speed. The dog gets them almost every time. What does all this have to do with SIU? Back in 1951, Features SIU Salukis: hounds with style students, fans and I dare say quite a few of the faculty and staff, decided they couldnlt deal with the SIU nickname anymore. You think Salukis is puzzling, back then it was the Maroons. Five SIU coaches get the credit tor the blamel, for nomi- nating the Saluki as the schodlls new mascot. After all, this is Little Egypt' tbut thatls another storyl and Abe Martin, Doc Lingle, Lynn Holder, Bill Waller and Cecil Franklin must of thought the Saluki would feel right at home. Doc Lingle was quoted in 1951 as saying, iiImagine the interest such a name would create when our athletic teams travel. Nearly everyone would wonder about the name and ask questions. The novelty of it would be a talking point. Now that the history lesson is over, lets get up to date. Currently, there are four, four-footed Salukis on campus who, like good mascots, turn up at many sporting events and make other special appearances. Bandit, Debbie, Kahlid and Thunder all live in the Wild- life Annex Complex west of McLafferty Road under the supervision of caretakers. At the complex, the dogs, who range in age from three to thirteen, lead a life of leisure. Theyire stars and they often seem to know it. Bandit, an eight-year-old male, is the most dominant of the four. Hels also a perennial crowd-pleaser because of his antics at games. Bandit has been known to bark at almost anyone, and once, to the delight of Saluki fans, grabbed an unsuspecting basketball referee by the pants leg. Debbie at 13, is the oldest and meekest of the four and had been retired from her public career. Shels also the only female. Khalid, six, and Thunder, three, are easy-to-get-along- with sort of characters, who really shine when it comes to dealing with crowds. These boys are almost always on their best behavior. 61 But the four-footed canines aren,t the only Salukis in town-just ask J erry Miller or Paula Harney. These Saluki fans are Salukis themselvesecostumed of course. Miller has been wearing the outlit for a year, while Harney took over from Kathy Schwarzkopf at the start of spring semester. SIU-C has had costumed mascots since about 1963, but the past year was the first time there were ever two. The current uniforms were designed and constructed by Mary Schulz and Devra Chernick of the Theater Department. As mascots, Miller and Harney attend most major sport- ing events and try to create spirit at the games. They work alone or with the Cheerleaders and are often requested to make appearances at functions off campus to represent SIU. The costumed mascot works best for appearances off campus, especially when travel is involved. One or both usually accompany the Cheerleaders to away games that are within driving distance. ttltts an honor and a privilege to be a Saluki mascot. I thoroughly enjoy doing it, its fun? said Miller, a 21-year- old sophomore in radio and television. Being a mascot isnlt all fun, though. Mascots are sub- jected to a certain amount of good-natured, tusuallyl, abuse, such as pulling on the ears and tails of the outfits. They also are the brunt of jokes. It,s not uncommon for people to approach them both in or out of uniform and say, ttyoutre a real dog? Being a mascot is also physically strenous. The tempera- ture inside the full-body uniforms becomes quite uncomfort- able, even after a short time. The structure of the uniforms sometimes makes it awkward to see clearly, breathe deeply or move easily. But, as Miller says, ttwhen youlre inside the mascot outfit, tdo it like a big dogf takes on a whole new meaning?

She is doing a poor job of pretending to sleep. She has her back to me now, and in this darkness I watch her rising and falling body: the curving silhouette of her shoulders, the slope into her waist, the rise of her hips, and the falling flow of her long legs. At thirty-six she has lost none of the endearing qualities for which I married her. I am constantly drawn to her. Like a magician, I pass my hand over her bare buttocks, trying, I think, to make the physicality of our once-love rise and meet me in the midair of the present, meet me half- way. As if she can sense my presence, she stirs closer to her edge of the bed. I gently lower my hand onto her and smooth the skin creased by bunched blankets. My hand stops as if halted by its own brain and then slowly moves to the crevice from which stem her pale legs. She tenses. Between this cleft, my hand fingers its way, but before I can go any further, she wrenches from my reach, grunting, ttUh-unghV Frustrated and embar- rassed, I quietly slide out of bed and walk to the bay doors opening onto the small terrace overlooking Walnut Street. I throw them open. And that is when I hear the rising and falling of many voices, voices colliding and clambering over one another. And I see the lights in the sky, burning in a haze of yellow and orange. Much like loversi tongues, these colors, these lights lick the darkness from the sky. 1 ts more than a hot nightls Fiction by Matthew Kirksey I postulate on the source of the light. Perhaps it is this: The End. After twenty years of cold warring, some unwitting janitor has, while mopping, backed into the sanguine button. And this meek fire is just the beginning. Soon the explosions and screams will be deafening. Soon even the air will burn and I will rush to J anice who is still lying in bed. I will clasp her in my arms, jerk her into Like the colors of the fire on this May night, my wife dazzles with her simplicity and forthrightness. the moonlight and tell her Pm sorry for this bad life. But I will find her face ashen and shriveled. I will feel her final hot breath blow past my ear and converge with this final earth. Ah, but this is too much. Perhaps it is this: the blazing delight of a home- coming bonfire. A young man is hold- ing someone he dearly loves around the waist. They are walking and they are drinking from a wineskin. He believes he is going to be a university man. His mind is a spool of scenes from the books he's read. He glances at her occasionally. He thinks she is beautiful and wise. Tightening his arm around her waist, he wonders, when she looks sad and distant, if she is acting out a scene in a book shels read or one that hes read. If hes not familiar with the sad scene she plays, he wonders if he ever will be. But this fire is too large, the shouts too dangerous, too maniacal. This must be an act of revolt, an act of de- struction. The campus is burning. Or, at least, part of it. And I must be morbid to watch what could be my fil- ing cabinet of published academic papers and rejected short stories blaz- ing to hell itself. I hear another sound, more distinct, closer. Turning from the light of the blaze, I see the shadowed figure of my wife as she is lying in bed. She is cry- ing. And I am saddened and embar- rassed by her, for I know why she cries. I fumble about in the dark for a pack of cigarettes and return to the bay doors, step through and sit in a chair on the terrace to watch the dev- astating brilliance of the fire over the trees. Like the colors of the iire on this May night, my wife dazzles with her simplicity and forthrightness. She has long brown hair that falls lan- guidly onto her freckled shoulders which are best exposed beneath two thin straps of her summer print dresses. She has long lingers that angle delicately from playing the piano. We met at a writers workshop in 1956. I had just arrived in Boston and knew no one. I would sit alone in the student union, smoking and reading detective novels, and often I would see her sitting with a group of people, talking over coffee. Once, after class had convened, she asked is I might want to join their discussion. As she approached me, I discreetly watched her casual and buoyant movements. If one had to judge her character by her actions, one might have surmised that she attained her grandest achievements by way of her sure and happy manner. I put my book aside as she said, ttHello, my name is J anice. Youire name is Tom, isn,t it? N ervously I replied, ltWell, yes, it is, but most people call me Thomas. At least, that,s what Fm known as? She stood there, taken aback by my directness. To relieve her of my seem- ing stoicism, I said, ttHave a seatiw ttActually, my friends and I were wondering if youId like to join us at our table? llWell, I donIt know? ttOh, come on? I looked at the people at her table. They were engaged in some discus- sion, and I was afraid that I might be asked some point question that, if answered ungrounded, could embar- rass me. On the other hand, when I looked at J anice, at her sincere and certain smile, at the flash of her teeth, I said, ttAll right? I got up and went with her to the table where her friends had congre- gated. When we arrived, she intro- duced me to the members of the table. Immediately, someone asked where I was from. ITm from southern Illinoisf, I replied. J ancie asked me from what town. ttFishermarYs Worth? iIMust be next to a river, eh? asked a young man named Carlo Kramer. iIAs a matter of fact, it is. It,s next to the Ohio river? J anice sipped her coffee and then said, liWhat is it like to live there. I mean, we,ve heard of all kinds of prejudice in the south. Is it that way where you lived? llFirst of all, it,s not really that far South. And as far as prejudice goes I 66 never saw any blatant harrassment. Ilm sure that there is. It,s all done very subtly. Most of the people in my town are just poor folks and town characters trying to get by, that,s all? As I talked, I noticed Carlo Kramer. He was, it seemed to me, to be very affected by J anicels beauty as was most of the men around her. When I stopped talking, he began dropping names of obscure writers he was fond of, trying gallantly to impress J anice. She politely acknowledged his pres- ence as did every one else, but the majority of the groups interest fell on me because I was the mystery man in the ensemble. ISO you say there were some inter- esting people in your town? J anice asked. Slowly, I gathered my recollections about Fisherman,s Worth and then began my tale, ttWell, there was this old woman named Armayda Apples who was very fond of cats. As a mat- ter of fact, she had a whole houseful of cats and kittens. She had so many that her husband grew disgusted of her and the smell the cats had brought with them that he ran off and left her. She was fascinated by the vulgarities and the haplessness of my life and the life of southern Illinois, as if it and I were synonymous and filled with mysterious lamentations. uOne time Mrs. Apples went to the police station and asked the chief if she could have a red light and a siren put in her car so she could rush her sick cats to the hospital? itYou,ve got to be kidding, J anice said. ttNo, Pm not'. So the chief gave her a red light so she woulant hound him? I replied. ttAnd I suppose that she rushed her cats to the hospitalf Carlo said, glumly. ttYes, she did, and the doctor would give the cats a shot of warm water and send her home? ttWhat ever happened to her? Is she still in your home town? J anice asked. ttNofI I said, ttshe breathed in too much cat hair and died of fur-balls. Carlo Kramer rose quickly and departed. After he was gone, I told more stories from FishermanIs Worth and eventually came to feel I was part of their community. . There were some interesting people in the group. Some were poets, some were short story writers, and others were literary scholars. All of them were graduate students. J anice, her- self, was a scholar, but she wrote prose and poetry, also. I had read a few of her poems and short stories in back issues of the universityIs literary magazine. They were very good, unlike my stabs at writing. J anice and I began seeing each other quite often, and the affection that was present, intensified each time we touched, each time we passed bits of information about ourselves back and forth. This give-and-take relationship became one where the consumption of our past, present, and the future could not be denied for one moment. That is when we decided to live together. The one unfortunate occurrence was that as soon as we began living together, J anice stopped writing. I believe that had she continued to write she would have been better than I could ever have dreamed. As for her lost desire to write, we had a short and severe argument. She told me Fiction never to tell her to write. I tried apol- ogizing, something at which Ilve never been good, and told her that her work was pristine and diamond-like, the opposite of my raggle-taggle prose. But rather than dealing with the subject, she left our bed, put on her clothes, and disappeared into the night. What, you might ask, was it that drew J anice and I together so that eventually we were married? Surely there were times when all was not right. Nevertheless, I felt myself being sucked into a vortex of human experience, a time of wonder. I felt the wholeness that a man can only know from a woman who compensates for the life he has never lived. I had been nowhere, other than Boston. J anice had been born there, had traipsed through Europe and Mexico, and had lived in Australia for two years. My ancestry was born out of the bowels of the Ohio River. It raised itself up through muddy water and, in turn, learned to feed on its own kind. I had descended from a line of fishermen whose smell was the smell of their daily labor. My father was the last of the commercial fishermen in the southern most tip of Illinois, and he had been my last link to Fishermans Worth. My mother had died when she was still quite young, and I had no brothers or sis- ters. My father insisted that I go to school to do what he could not: read and write. He knew the river was dying due to industrial waste, al- though he could not have said it in so many words. It seemed that every year his catch was smaller and his face more sallow, worn out. And so he made sure that I could go to college by leaving me a small savings. J anicels family, descended from Boston lawyers, held a most promi- nent social position in that city. I had the chance to meet her father who had practiced law for thirty-seven years. Fiction At our meeting, I found him to be a kindly man who did not embody the stuffiness of social hierarchy. His dignity stemmed from his quiet, thoughtful manner. He offered me a drink of his favorite scotch he had hidden under a brick next to the coal furnace in his basement. ltThey wont let me drink. They think its bad for me. Granted, the heart attack hindered my daily activi- ties, but having to sneak around to drink is frustrating as hell. Iill proba- bly have another attack trying to find a new hiding place for my scotch. Here, have a spot moref he said and held out the flask. tTm not much of a drinking man, sir? I replied. ttWell, that,s bully, but have another? I held out my fruit jar, and he liber- ally poured me more. He said, ttItls awful when the fam- ily treats me like a child. Ilm sixty- three years old, and I have to sneak around like Ilm having a scandalous affair with my scotch? HI suppose theyire just considering your health? I said. iiThey act as if I,m going to live forever, he said, and he poured more scotch into his jar. Well, in a sense, he did as did my ancestors. There is no separation of generations one from another. I carry the tragedies of generations around like currency. I believe that was why J anice became interested in me and came to love me. I battered my family history and its bleakness and poverty to someone who wanted it. She was fascinated by the vulgarities and the haplessness of my life and the life of southern Illinois, as if it and I were synonymous and filled with myste rious lamentations. One night early in our relationship, Boston was blanketed in a foot and a half of snow. We had been at a gath- ering of friends and had come home for the evening to our apartment. We had been living together for two weeks, and the situaton was pleasant and easy. I was tired from the days work of teaching and studying and decided to go to bed. I closed my eyes. iiSo what happened to your father? I heard J anice say. ltWhatT liYou never finished the story at the party. What happened? she asked, slowly undressing at her side of the bed. As I contemplated how to tell the story, I watched how each part of her skin, as it became naked, seemed to glow, giving the room a human light. ttWhat do you meaniw I asked. tiHow did he die? itYou really don,t want to go into that now, do you? le like to know, that,s all? she said, crawling into bed. ttHe died on the river. Had a heart attack while he was iishingf I said. As I contemplated how to tell the story, I watched how each part of her skin, as it became naked, seemed to glow, giving the ' room a human light. tTm sorry? she said, propping her pillow against the bedstead. ttThere,s nothing to be sorry about. He always said that if he had to go, he wanted out of this world on the one thing that gave him peace. And that was the river. ltWhat did he look likeiw ttHe was a big thick-necked man, and to look at him you wouldnlt think that he thought of such things as states of mind. But, one time before he died, he told me that to be on the river at four in the morning with just 67 the sound of the waves hitting the side of the boat and watching the sun rise just over the trees was a won- drous thing. He said that when the waves hit the boat that it was like your heart hitting your ribcage. Can you believe this old man who drank and raised hell all his life talked poetry? ttYou underestimate your family? she said. ItMaybe I do. I dont know. So he died on the river? tIWhen someone had spotted the boat, they said that it was going around in circles, I continued. ttIn circles? uHe had managed to make the boat do that by angling the rudder? ttWhy do you think he did that? III guess he didnit want to wind up at Cairo. He just stayed in Fisher- manls Worth, going in circles all his life? ttYou,re being too hard on him? she said. Yes, I was, but I wanted to rid myself of a past of simple people, of people who only comprehended prac- ticality in its every day sense. I could not hear the music of their practical lives, singing above the every day. J anice and I talked long and hard about marriage and how we wanted our lives arranged. She said that she wanted our relationship to work, but that she did not want to feel bound by the strictures of jealousy and petty grievances. I fully agreed with her since I had grown up watching my mother and father battle for suprem- acy over one another. Their constant bickering and prolonged silences were more than I could manage at times and they only increased my distance from them and added to my solitude. With all this in mind, J anice and I embarked on a marriage of independ- ence and love. And our lives contin- ued as before, until one night while we Were fixing dinner. 68 J anice, while dicing an onion, said, tTm going to quit school? ttWhat did you say? I asked, open- ing the refrigerator. iTm quitting schoolfi ttAre you serious? You only have a year before you get your MAX I said. tTve given it a lot of thought. And doing what Pm doing is not what I want to do? she said, scraping the diced onion off the cutting board into the frying pan. She turned up the heat. I put my ear to the door and heard stifled cry- ing. Janiceis weeping seemed to range on a sad musical scale. I itWell, what do you want to doiw tiI want to work with people. I want to see the results of my life before me, walking and talking. I want to do things? ItYoutre doing things, now? tTm tired of writing goddamned papers on miniscule topics about books that have been written about so much that no one reads the books anymore. They just read what was written about it and then say, Oh, what a wonderful book that was. You must read it? I get so tired of it. I just want to do something? she said, stir- ring the onions. III still think youtre doing some- thingft I replied. tiBut, Iim not doing!,, I didn,t press the subject after that because my feelings smarted from the darkness of her implications. She iinally quit graduate school and became involved in a program, helping runaway teen-agers at a half- way house. Her spirit for this sort of thing was inexhaustible. While I brooded over the use of sound in the novel, Clarissa, she came home filled with exuberant concern for what she was doing. Because I felt that J anice did not want to lose contact with the world of literature, I thought I would invite a new grad student over for dinner. Randall Henchman was a gregar- ious fellow, and at first I had shied away from him. But his reckless nature made him interesting. He was quite a public man. Randall would rather be in a bar, drinking, dancing, and running his theories of poetry through the ears of anyone who would listen. After the meal, J anice and Randall went to the living room, and I opened a bottle of wine. I could here J anice and Randall discussing her work at the half-way house. He was very reserved and interested in J anicets concern for young runaways. When I came into the room, I poured wine for the two of them. J anice asked him many questions about his poetry, and Randall re- sponded exactly as I had expected him to. He gave a non-stop mono- logue which was erratic and brilliant. I knew J anice would like him and was pleased that some aspect of the academic world could still captivate her. It bound her to me, I thought. J anice was astounded to find that Randall was a supporter of what was later to be known as womenis libera- tion. His poems, to me, smarted of overt causes and slogans. She com- pared them to Walt Whitman, and that was the reason I didnit like them, although the didactical point was well taken. Well, they talked and talked while I kept filling their wine glasses. In time, they became good friends. They lunched together, and the three of us would go to the country to shake off the dust of the week. Theyid go on long hikes while I lay on a blanket, reading. Oh, I thought that summer Fiction glorious when I was a graduate student. By far the most glorious night of that summer was when J anice told me she was pregnant, and in a little less than nine months we had a beau- tiful baby girl. We named her Cas- sandra the same day I received a reply about a teaching position from the university in Carbondale. I was grateful that I had been accepted there since all the other universities that I had applied to had looked at my record with unconcern. J anice was very excited about going to southern Illinois. She often told me that she had wanted to dis- cover me in the presence of the land from which I had sprung, like some new strain of weed that needed inves- tigation to discover the reasons for its being. Yes, J anice was excited that she and I and Cassandra were going to that wild country. As we were packing our belongings, someone knocked on our apartment door. J anice, who had been depressed because, I thought, we were leaving a part of our life behind, answered the caller. IiJust a minutef she said. I went into the bedroom to pack the sheets away. I heard the door open and close. Because I was bent over a cardboard box and blood was rushing to my head, my ears began to pound in a steady, quite beat. But over the rush of blood, I could recognize the hushed voice speaking to J anice. It was RandalPs. His voice wanted to break, to shout, to rage. I quietly placed the patterned sheets in the box and crept to the corridor and leaned against the wall. II dont want you to leave, god- damnitf, Randall whispered tensely. tTve got a family, now. I just cant leave them. Be practical, Randall. Youlre going to have to go. Hels in the bedroom and might walk in any minute? 70 ItI dont give a shit. Tell him you want a divorce? tII canltfl J anice replied. IiThen you donlt love me, do you? Randall said, his voice cracking. ttYou ought to know how I feel about you, but its got to end here? J anice whispered. And thatls how I felt about it, too. I returned to the bedroom, feeling like I did the time when I nearly drowned in a public swimming pool. I stum- bled to the crib in which lay my daughter. She rolled about in her blankets; her hands were tiny, tight fists. I leaned my face down to touch hers. I pressed my lips on her cheeks, and a little fist struck me in the eye. Another hit me across the nose, then grabbed a patch of my face, and I felt little fingernails dig at my flesh. I heard the front door slam. Finally, I stood up and called, itJan- ice? J anice, who was at the door? itIt was the postman. He heard that we were leaving and wanted to get a m I tm not a drinking man, but the thought of Jan- ice and Randall to- gether made me want to leap into a vat of bur- gundy and fill my nose red to the hilt, die like a Clarence, wounded by the reoccurring past. m change of address? she shouted in reply. ITve never heard of that being done before? ttWell, I guess he,s being nice? ItI guess he is? I said and walked into the living room. When I walked in, no one was there. The room looked sad with paste-board boxes cluttering the sheet-covered couch and chairs. I walked to the bathroom and found the door closed. I put my ear to it and heard stifled crying. J anice,s weeping seemed to range on a sad musical scale. I went back to the living room, and acting as if I were in the dark, said, IIOh, J anice, are you in the bathroom? Finally, she said, ItYesfl IIAre you busyiw ttNo, Illl be out in a minute? she replied. I had only one desire, and that was to be as far away from Randall Henchman and Boston as I could be. I wanted to put the present of un- gainly life as far back into the past as I could. I wanted to start over and I hoped that going back to southern Illinois would afford a refuge of sorts. J anice came out eventually, looking as if she hadnlt been crying. She had donned fresh lipstick and eyeshadow. She stood there and looked at me and finally said, ItThomas, I do love you? II love you, too? I replied, and we continued packing. he crown of fire is terrible I and majestic and not mine. It never could be. I have never burned that brightly and flamed the desire of at least one night. I have left no ashes out of which to rise new and plumed with the wings of freedom. Granted, I was winged but with wax and used feath- ers. And I have always been faulty in flight. An explosion sounds over the trees. I turn, expecting J anice to rise, curi- ous, to my side. I wait and wait. But, no, she does not come. As I stand here I cant even imagine the huge list with its enraged five fingers that held the match that set the burning. The shouting is joy- ously mad and louder than before for the choir of angry students have met with opposition. I hear sirens of po- Fiction lice. A fire engine races by; its siren squalls, too. And so my wife and I and our daughter arrived in Carbondale sometime in J uly of 1960. We settled in the house we are in now. We chose this neighborhood over others be cause it seemed to be a good place to raise a child. The houses were of a variety, unlike the newer subdivisions where larger incomes afforded homo- genous housing and, in turn, homo- genous lifestyles. There were lots of children in the neighborhood for Cas- sandra to play with when she was small. I remember very well, sitting in my favorite threadbare easy chair, grading papers, and listening to the heels of a gang of one year olds clat- ter across the floor. As Cassandra grew up, I often stood in the shadows of the corridors in our house, watching her put bows and ribbons on Romeo, the cat. Even when she was very young, I stood apart from Cassie and she from me. In those very same corridors, I was misty-eyed, realizing the huge gulf between us. She was her mother,s daughter, and although I tried to be closer to her, I found myself tongue- tied and clumsy. She would stare at me, expecting me to say the right words, but I was lost to her. She would jump off my lap and disappear into another room. And I would sit and feel the traces of her presence slowly dissipate like a fragrance of a fond, though lost love. J anice, as soon as Cassandra was out of diapers, began working at a woments counseling center. She found that her services were in great de- mand what with the university,s pop- ulace being one-half female. She, also, devoted time to the PTA, wanting a good education for Cassandra when her time came to go to school. J anice marched for equal rights for blacks and women, and she had my moral support since I could not devote a lot Fiction of time to go to rallies. I was stuck in the middle of a huge paper on prole- tarian writers among other projects of that nature. J anice, of course, was not alone with her political and racial sympa- thies. She had plenty of friends who believed as she did, and most of them were over for dinner or informal get- togethers. She and her friends laughed and debated issues and planned in front of the fire place. As for myself, I could be usually found at the kitchen counter, reading a news- paper. Every so often, I would pass through the living room to retrieve some forgotten article, just to make my presence known and to prove that I wasntt snubbing J anicets friends. ttWell, we could go to Las Vegas and gamble all our money away. Or we could go to Alaska and start a church for backsliding Eskimos. Or we .could go to i Fishermants Worth? And I wasnt snubbing them. At first, I sat in on J anicds parties but found that I really didnt contribute to the success of them. So little by little, I frequented them less, and I found that I was not missed. By the seventh party, I could be found in any part of the house except the living room. Usually I spied on my daughter as she practiced her ballet. Forever it seemed that J anice had hounded me about going to Fisher- manls Worth. And forever, I avoided the subject or delayed it with some literary project that had to be com- pleted. But, in the summer of 1965, I had either run out of excuses or I was tired of making them. She had entertained heavily for a week in April and had not seen much of me. I, for the most part, had har- bored myself in my office, not want- ing to interfere with her plans. I came home later than usual that night and found J anice, sitting on the porch steps. ttGetting some restiw I asked, approaching her. tTve been sitting here for a while. Sit down? she said, scooting to one side. I sat down and lighted a cigarette. gI,Ve been thinking? she said. ttAbout whatiw ttAbout doing something this summer? ttDoing what? I asked. ttWell, we could go to Las Vegas and gamble all our money away. Or we could to go Alaska and start a church for backsliding Eskimos. Or we could go to Fisherman,s Wort , she said. ttI've always wanted to preach the gospel from a snow-capped moun- tain? I replied. ttSeriously, why dont we do it, this time. I want to see what kind of life you had. I think it would be good for Cassandra, too. It would be good for her to find out more about you? ttI dont know what possible good any of it could do anybody. It did nothing for me? I said. ttOh, lets do it. Ittll be fun for all of us? she said. And after two more months of haranguing, J anice and I went to town and bought a tent and the accessories necessary to make ttroughing it, an urban pleasure, and we made ready to do some serious camping at the state park in my hometown. A week later, as we drove into Fisherman,s Worth, I felt a wave of regret hit me. I began wishing we hadn,t come. J anice and Cassandra, 71 on the other hand, were wide-eyed with curiosity. ttLetls go to your old neighbor- hoodfl J anice said. ttAll right? I said and turned left at the only stop light in town. We drove through the business district. All three blocks of it. We drove past the court house and headed toward the Ohio river. I turned left again and went down a small hill and stopped in front of a small, brown house. ttLefs get out and look aroundf, J anice said. We got out of the car. I took them to where my father had had his fish table, where he had stood to gut his catch. But it was gone, as was the lit- tle wood frame building that had been the fish market. ttCan I help you? I heard someone say. I turned to find a bearded young I saw a deserted bar- bershop and a vacant pool hall and two tav- erns where, it seemed, only the desperate might drink. man with long hair, pulled back in a pony-tail. ttWeire from out of town. I was born here, and I thought Iid bring my wife and daughter down to visit. I hope were not bothering you? I replied. ttNah, bud, you,re not bothering anybody. If you want to look around, go right ahead. Youtre welcome to, the young man said. ttWell, welve got to be going, any. way. Come along, J anice, Cassie? We went back to the car, and I drove to the old river district. At one time, the river district was the teeming part of the town. There had been three movie houses, a drug store, a grocery store, two apartment buildings, a bank, three taverns, and a brothel. Now, as we drove down the very same street, I saw a deserted barbershop and a vacant pool hall and two taverns where, it seemed, only the desperate might drink. I turned onto the road that lay parallel to the river. We passed by broken down shotgun framed houses and children, running barefoot with stick- r:andy in their small fists and dirt Fiction smudged on their faces and clothes. All the time, J anice and Cassandra were silently taking in the scenes. ttSee those children? Thatls what I looked like when I was their age. My glamorous beginnings, I said. ttDaddy, what are those little bitty houses behind the big houses? Cas- sandra asked. ttWell, darling? I said, amused at her innocence, ttthose little buildings are where people go to use the bathroom? ttIt must be cold around Christmas time, she said, rubbing her hands together. ttYes, honey, its cold? I said. ttDid you have to poop in the cold, Daddy? ttYes, honey, I did. It can be cold and very unpleasant. One time your grandmother went to one of those buildings to use the bathroom, and she found a big black snake draped on the seat where she was going to sit down? J anice and Cassandra burst out laughing. ttYour grandmother didn,t find it funny. She refused to have anything to do with your grandfather until he built an indoor bathroom. And be- cause money was so hard to come by, they didnt speak to each other for a year and a half. If they were any- thing, they were fools? J anice and Cassandra quit laugh- ing and turned away from me to stare out of their windows. As always, I .had put distance between my family and myself. In silence, I drove to the state park to set up camp and bed down for the night. At J anicels request, the next day we went to the river where my father had been found dead in his boat. We got out of the car. Before use lay the dirty, brown water. Pieces of driftwood floated by, and on the shore lay the corpses of fish, dried by the sun. I was just an average man with an average past, flowered by the turn of a phrase, a twist of the truth. ttRight out there. The authorities found him in his boat out there? I said, pointing toward the river. Cassandra wasnit interested. She was poking a stick into the dry eye- socket of a dead fish. J anice looked, but, really, there was nothing to see. It was as if she were expecting to see my fathers boat endlessly circling in the water after all these years. There was little to say about the matter, and I could tell that J anice was disappointed. a We did not spend the entire week in Fishermanls Worth as we had plan- ned. J anice grew restless and said she needed to get back to the counseling center. Cassandra, of course, was bored. And I didn,t care whether we stayed or left. So we left. After we returned, there was a marked difference in mine and J an- iceis relationship. We made love only occasionally and not that passion- ately. Our dinners were eaten in silence. Janice increased the number of her parties and the number of peo- ple attending them. And more fre- quently, I spent most of my late eve- nings at my office. I sat and wondered what it was that had caused J anice to change. I thought about how enthusiastic she had been about going to Fisherman,s When I reflect on those days in the 19608, it seems I came home only to have, Janice tell me that someone had died. Worth and how disappointed she had been after having been there. I re- member how fascinated she had been about my childhood and my family, about the history of that strange world that I had described to her when we had courted. Then I realized what a fool I had been to have ever gone back to that town. All the ele- ments of that town had been exposed to her. It was no longer a mysterious, mythical place. She had seen how or- dinary it was and, in turn, how ordi- nary I was. I no longer captivated her. I was just an average man with an average past, flowered by the turn of a phrase, a twist of the truth. I had created a fictional account of minor lives and expanded them so they 73 meant much more, even if I didnt want to be like them. And she had found me out. When I reflect on those days in the 19605, it seems I came home only to have J anice tell me that someone had died: Hemingway, Hesse, Faulk- ner, Plath, the Kennedy brothers, and Martin Luther King, Jr. At the last death, I found her lying across the bed, crying. One of her heroes had been proven mortal. And with each noted death, the years seemed to follow a dying course. J anice decided that Cassandra would receive a better education at a board- ing school just outside of Boston. Although J anice was probably right and Cassandra and I had never been that close, I regretted seeing my daughter spirited away. Her leaving made the hugeness of our house even more hollow and despairing. I often found myself at the windows of the house thinking I could hear her behind me, dancing to bits of Mozart. ealing with notable deaths D brings me to this very day, this very night. For weeks the coming of Randall Henchman had been awaited by faculty mem- bers, students, and townspeople since he had received an enormous amount of attention due to a few volumes of poetry that had been published. He was lauded as a major force in literature. Although neither J anice nor I had spoken of what had happened in Bos- ton ten or eleven years before and had not spoken of him since, I know she must have thought of him, for I surely did. N ow, Randall was a success at what he was doing. He was living in Maine and occasionally teaching a class at a university. But his most success was at giving readings at c01- leges throughout the United States. His most prominent book of verse was a slim volume called, Sonnets for the Other, a confessional series of poems about an unrequited and over- indulgent relationship with a myste- rious woman. Although I knew who the woman was, I could not deny the quiet, dis- turbing strength of the verse. He no longer spouted erratic poetry; he sang the pained songs of solitude. Randall was scheduled to give a public reading, and then a private reading for faculty members. As soon 74 in the back row, I noticed that, when he read, he casually glanced at his audience, all except me. When he was through reading and the applause had died down, everyone either shook his hand or nodded in his direction as they filed out of the small auditorium. N 0t to be considered an ass, I quickly shook his hand, congratulated him, and rushed back to my office. For hours I sat in my book-lined cubicle with the shades drawn, and As I stand here I cantt even imagine the huge fist with its enraged five fingers that held the match that set the burning. At three oiclock today, I forced myself to the faculty reading. Sitting with the collection of manuscripts I had written for learned periodical stacked on my desk. I lighted cigarette after cigarette, and the ends of them were the only source of light in the room. Smoke filled the room. The longer I sat there, the more nervous and caged I felt. My mind wanted to race with incomprehensible imaginings, but I refused to think those dreadful thoughts. I would be damned if my life would resemble one of those terrible J ames Cain novels. No, Fm not a drinking man, but the thought of J anice and Randall in the same room made me want to leap into a vat of burgundy and till my nose red to the hilt, die like a Clarence, wounded by the reoccurring past. What I needed was, perhaps, to be around people. I locked up my office and went to my car. As I was driving, I could hear shouts and screams, whistles and si- rens on Illinois Avenue. I had no idea what it could be. I turned onto a side street and drove as close to the source of the noise as I could. I stopped the car when I saw crowds of young peo- ple storming down the street and policemen waiting to meet them, blackjacks and billyclubs drawn. It was hard to say exactly why this uprising was happening. When I glimpsed the mad faces of police and student body, I knew I had to get out of there. I backed the car into a pri- vate driveway and made a sharp turn out of danger. Finally, I came to a bar located beneath a liquor store near the train station. I parked the car and found the entrance. I walked down a flight of stairs until I reached a door that had been propped open as if I had been expected. I walked into a rush of noise. Peo- ple were crowded around the bar, seeking service. I saw a few of my students leaning stoicly against the walls, attempting to look hard and lean, but their suburban innocence prevented them from being the loners they thought themselves to be. I slowly weaved through the crowd, intent on getting a drink. Three barmaids-one outfitted in smokey gray shorts, another in hip- hugging jeans, and the last in a pink mini-skirte-accentuated the tension of sexual conquest. I finally caught the attention of the barmaid in hip-hug- gers and ordered a glass of wine. As I raised the glass to my lips, the lights of the bandstand flashed, the five boys with very long, unruly hair appeared with instruments. A tweak- ing harmonica broke the chatter of the drinking people, and unsynco- pated hand-claps answered the musicians. I pulled myself and my drink away from the bar and went to a somewhat less crowded corner and leaned like a student against the wall. Three people. broke the circle to leave, and I saw the two experts: Janice and Randall. He was dancing obscenely around my wife. Couple after couple sauntered toward the dance floor and once there began wiggling around one another. I was quickly bored at the sight of such movement, but I stayed put because my seeming anonymity was comfort- ing. I was content, staring into my Cheap wine, watching the few bubbles present rise to the top and disappear. The song that had been playing was ended, and another was started. That one was ended, and another was played. Over and over, over and over. Suddenly, the crowd roared, inter- rupting my wine gazing. I looked up and saw that the dancers had formed Fiction a huge circle, and I suspected that two dancers with a little more exper- tise had championed the dance floor. One of the dancers within the circle hooted like a jubilant hillbilly, and I thought, now therels a happy fellow. Three people broke the circle to leave, and I saw the two experts: J an- ice and Randall. He was dancing ob- scenely around my wife. He was laughing, twisting his mouth into sighs of pleasure, oohing and aahing. I was appalled, although I had been expecting to Iind this. And although I had expected this, I still wanted to rush him, screaming like a panther. I dropped my wine glass on the floor, splattering red drops on my shoes and advanced slowly through the crowd. As I inched my way around people, I knocked drinks from other peoples hands. Someone abruptly grabbed my shoulder and swirled me around. tiHey, fucker, you owe me a drink? a young man shouted in my face. ltI owe you nothing? I said. I don,t think he heard me, but he did recog- nize me as his English professor before I recognized him as one of my students. . He let go of me. But it was I who was stunned by my actions. Not only was he one of my students, but four of the people around him were, too. I leaned toward him, took out my bill- fold, and handed him a couple of bills. iiListen, Ilm sorry. Here, the drinks are on me, all right? He reluctantly took the money. tTm sorry. Really I am? I said to their cold, unbelieving faces, and I turned toward the dance floor, again. J anice and Randall were still danc- ing when I saw a young man dash to the bandstand and motion to the lead singer to lean down. The singer con- ferred with the young man and then said, while the band continued play- ing, liHey, guess who weive got doing those great gyrations down there, men and women? Welve got us a writer right in our midst. Letls have a big hand for Mr. Randall Henchman, a fine writer in his own right, right? Riiiightfi That last long drawn out ltrightl, made me nauseous. ltHow about cominl up here and sharing some of your poetry with us. Come on gang, letls hear it for Mr. Poetry? the singer said. The drummer did a drum roll, and F iction the crowd went wild as Randall bounded upon the bandstand. He took the microphone and said, IIHow about it? Eh? Having funiw He weaved back and forth, and it was obvious that he was either drunk or high or both. The lead singer leaned into the microphone and said, ttHow about reciting some of your poems, man? The crowd, again, roared enthusiastically. iiWeeeell, okay? Randall said. When he first began reciting his verse from memory, hardly anyone made a sound. And no one cared if he forgot a line or two because he covered himself so well. Although I was at odds with him, I wished I could have committed some of what he recited to memory because his words were bittersweet and delicate. But as all crowds will, the people began to get restless the longer Ran- dall continued to recite. And the more Randall recited, the more it seemed that Randall did not want to quit reciting. Someone screeched at another per- son across the bar. Then, more inter- mediate voices of different ranges and tones began. And before long every- one was talking, and no one was try- ing to listen to Randall Henchman, except J anice and I. I turn to look at her, but she is gone. There is only an impression on the sheets that she was ever there. m as Randall arrived, he was asked by, of all people, my wife to give a read- ing at a combination Tupperware party-poetry reading. I could not approach J anice about Randall for it would mean disinter- ring the past I wanted to remain buried. Besides, perhaps nothing would happen. I would not succumb to my imagination. Slowly, the band began to play to the cadences of Randallls verse, but all they could do was drone the same three chords over and over. To com- pensate, they played louder and louder until you could not hear what Randall was saying. He was just a Iigure beneath a colored light, moving his mouth, and lost in the music. Randall didnlt seem to notice that no one could hear what he was saying. He only weaved back and forth before the microphone. When I looked through the crowd for J anice, I found no trace of her. I had the management check the rest- rooms, but she was not there. Aim- lessly, I weaved through the crowd, vainly searching. And I soon went home only to Iind that J anice had gotten there first and was in bed. t is now very early in the morning. The fire has di- minished greatly. Only smoke rises over the tree tops, and the random confusion that once was is now no more. Soon there will be no lire at all. Firemen will shovel dirt over whatever burned, spraying the smouldering mass again and again. J anice lies quietly now, I think. I turn to look at her, but she is gone. There is only an impression on the sheets that she was ever there. Again, I circle around and know I face an eventual darkness. And in this darkness, I will grope blindly through my bookcase for the scene in the book that was first played this way. In this darkness, I will wake up screaming, having dreamed of riding a whirlpool in a john-boat with Ran- dall Henchman, staring blankly at me as I frantically cling to the oar- locks. In this darkness, I will call out for my wife and daughter, but only the dribbling echoes of my own voice will answer back. In this darkness, I will expect tomorrow; I will expect the 19708. In this darkness I will expect darkness. El 75 Story By Kevin Eldridge . Maybe five miles out of Carbondale, about a quarter-rnile from the Cambria road and just inside the door of Fred,s Dance Barn, you,ll find a sheet of paper tacked to the wall that tells you four ways to avoid the $2.75 cover Fredls charges. If your name is Fred, Freida, Frederick, Frederica or Fredlina, you get in free. If its your birthday or your wedding anniversary and you show your identification or marriage certificate, you get in free. And if your divorce- yes, divorce-has just come through, you bring your decree to Fredls and theylll stamp their red F on it and let you in and not charge you a cent. llWe celebrate everythinglll said a jubilant Barrett Rock- man, owner of Fredls. ttThat s what welre here for. We get a divorce decree about once a month and stamp our Fred,s F all over it and the people love it. This is a happy place. After even a cursory glance around Fredls any Saturday night, its obvious that Rockman isn,t exaggerating. The long wooden tables that spread in a hemisphere round the dance floor are filled and uproarious with folks hooking down beer, whiskey, soda pop and whatever else they brought with them. Fred,s sells no alcohol, only soda and snacks, but you,re welcome to bring whatever is legal. Out on the dance floor, two gray-haired women waltz to the live country music. Beside them, a boy and girl not yet in their teens sway through a crowd of coal miners, factory workers, college students and businessmen from all over southern Illinois. 76 photo by Doug Janvnn ttFredls is a place where anybody can come? Rockman said. ttIf we cater to any certain audience, its people Who like to dance. And we play the kind of music that every- body feels good with. Its not very sophisticated, has a strong bass beat . . . nobody,s intimidated. Everybody can dance to what we play? Fredts, according to Rockman, hires only local, country bands. And by country, he means old-fashioned music with a bluegrass flavor. ilProbably regressive country more than progressive? he explains. ltWe play very little outlaw, very little country rock, almost no southern rock. We tried Katy and the Smokers, but that didnlt work. You cant turn a silk purse into a sowls ear? Rockman said he deals with an entire circuit of amaz- ingly good bands that most people in Carbondale never hear about. llThey play the American Legion, the VFW, the Elks, the Moose and they make pretty good money. Welve got a group coming in from Steeleville and the next time we Features can book them-theytre book so far ahead, every Friday and Saturday-is March of '84. Now, thatts how good they are? Rockman is quick to point out, however, that most of these bands no longer have what he calls ttaspirations of glory. ttTheytre playing for pure pleasure? he said. Most of them have already been to Nashville and found out its a big rip. So they come back and work nine-to-five and play just for the joy of playing, just on weekends. Theytre week- end warriors and they don,t attempt to be anything else. They dont want to be anything else. They,ve already been there and back? In such a case, its hard to say who has more fun-the band or the dancers. And in an atmosphere as relaxed as Fredts such a question scarcely matters. There is little or no distance between band and audience, no dichotomy of entertainer and entertained. During such specialty dances as hoedowns, cotten-eyed joes and grandpa dances all bar- riers fall: the band teases the dancers, the dancers tease the band and audience teases both. ttWe do throw a party? Rockman insited. ttAnd we work at it. There,s nothing worse than a party with just every- body laidback, and sometimes you have to do some silly Features photo by David McChesney stuff to get the party moving. You know, go out and play a really hard game of volleyball with people falling all over the place or play charades. ttWe have specialty dances that get everybody involved, either watching and laughing and applauding or up there and out. And once theytre out there, once theyive done something, they think theytre having the best time in the world? Such a dissolution of barriers makes F red,s an interest- ing study in some of Americas better ideals. Fred Falmier, a coal mine foreman, founded the dance barn in 1968. Much like Americats first settlers, Falmier could find no existing place in which he felt comfortable and so estab- lished a place of his own. 78 ttHe wasnt a joiner, Rockman said, ttyou know , Moose, Elks, that kind of thing. He was an independent type of person, strong family man, and there weren,t many places at that time for a family man to go. If youtre not a member of the Moose or Elks, there,s no place for you. You cant afford the Holiday Inns. Certainly the Carbondale bars weren,t conducive. So, instead of wandering around, he built his own place. Hank Wright, who used to be a big radio disc-jockey, he came out here and started playing and the place was almost immediately a success? According to Rockman, Fredts was formed four years before Mickey Gilley opened his dancehall in Texas, and SIU-C students discovered Fredts and were coming in large numbers two years before the movie Urban Cowboy set off Features the current country-and-western vogue. HFor the first time, probably? Rockman mused, SIU found something before it became a fad. They didnlt repeat someone else. They just happened to find Fred,s and move into it and it just became a thing that built dramatically. Then Urban Cowboy came along and just solidified it. itYou know, our universityls way behind most fads. When they were doing disco here, they were retiring it in Califor- nia. Well, this time we were ahead? Rockman dismisses any tension between students and locals as minimal or non-existent. Old people? he said. iiCollege kids love ,em. The older people, some of them have a little trouble staying young. When the college crowd found the place, it did chase some older people away, but only because it changed the spread of the place. Our aver- age age dropped from about 40 to 28. But then, we get everything from young marrieds-I mean young marrieds, like 16 year-olds-to an 80 year-old couple? Rockman believes a college crowd should frequent Fredls, if not for pure enjoyment, then at least for their own edilication. 9A college guy comes down from Cook County or Du Page? he said, itcomes all the way down to southern Illi- nois and then spends his life in downtown Carbondale. He shook his head. itYou need to go out to Giant City, Garden of the Gods, Pomona General Store. You might as well see what the real people look like. tiThe real world is Norge factory workers, United Mine Workers, guys who work the iron industries. Its easy to get very isolated, very ivory-towered in a college environment. iiTherels a lot of people out there struggling for four bucks an hour, happy to have it and thatls all they,ve got. They work live and a half days a week and they get one night to blow off a little steam. Thatls life, that,s all it is for them. And they come out here to Fredls, so sit and see what real people look like. Rockman cites two major factors that draw local people to Fredis. Affordability is one, especially in these hard times. liWhere do you go? Rockman asked, if youlre a young married couple and you,re either out of work, laid off, draw- ing unemployment or working a gas station job or a factory line? itYou cant afford a babysitter or the prices of drinks in most bars. So you buy a six-pack, bring the kids and come to Fredls-kids get in free or half-price, depending on age- and you sit down and have a good time. The bring-your- own concepts a real viable thing these days? But by far Fredis biggest attraction is its atmosphere. According to Rockman, a large number of people come to Features Fred,s regularly, every weekend. They feel that they belong to Fred,s and that a part of Fredls-a certain table or cornerabelongs to them. Signs hang on the wall here and there: CiDALE, BiDELL, MAKANDA GANG. The Marion crowd wrote their own long rhyrhe, painstakingly penned it onto a poster and hung it on the wall behind their tables. Fortunately, this segregation is good-natured and not seriously enforced. There is little or no parochial antago- nism. The signs and posters have more of a uKilroy Was Herell than a iiYankee Go Homeli ring to them. tiFredis is neutral territory? said Rockman emphatically. tiQuite often, people from West Frankfort, say, they donit feel comfortable in Marion. Old football, basketball rival- ries, what have you, but you have this thing of competitive nature in different towns. If a guy wears a West Frankfort jacket over to a Marion bar, heis likely to get beat up in the parking lot. The stories about blood-and-gut places, about honkytonks, are true. iiBut Fredis isnlt in anybodyls town. Its one of the few places where everybody can go at the same time from all over without getting their lights punched out. People come here, its neutral territory. On a percentage basis, lid say we have someone get violent about one tenth of one percent of the time? This iimelting poti, atmosphere moved Rockman to buy Fred,s when Falmier put it on the market in 1981. Said Rockman, who moved to southern Illinois from inner-city Chicago in 1963: 91 came from Polish neighborhoods where we used to have picnics all the time where all the families would get together. You wouldnt have this dichotomy of a place for old people, a place for swingers. Youid have a place where the whole family would go-girlfriends, wives, grandmothers, uncles-and there isn't much like that in southern Illinois. 01 saw a place like Fredis and I felt very comfortable with it. It seemed like something I wanted to do? Apparently, it seemed like something others wanted to do, as well. Rockman said that a couple of former custom- ers of Fredts were responsible for reviving the long-dead Southern Illinois Dance Barn on highway 148 near Gore- Ville. Two former members of the house-band Falmier kept at Fredls recently formed the Roundup in Murphysboro. tilts a good concept? Rockman said. iiThe problem is therels only about 120,000 people in a 20 mile radius and its hard to divide the crowd three ways. The other barns draw much smaller crowds than Fredls, mainly older peo- ple about 40, 45. Welve heard the mood in the Roundup is very parochial, very Murphysboro. Its a Murphysboro barn, its Murphysboro people and God forbid someone ask someoneis lady to dance. It doesn't work that way here. Girls are as apt to ask a guy to dance as a guy to ask a girl to dance? .Rockman estimates that Fredis holds about 60 percent of the dance-barn crowd, having lost about 20 percent to the economy and 20 percent to competing barns. However, neither the economy nor the competition seems to intimi- date him. iiThe economy will get better? he said confidently, add- ing that his competition couldnlt survive on the small crowds theylve attracted. iiWelll be here? he said. iiWelre stubborn. We were here before Gilleyts and no newcomeris gonna knock that out. Weill still throw the best party in southern Illinois every weekend. El' 79 THE END OF OLD MAIN Story by John Racine The year was 1969. Mini-skirts and maxi-coats were in, bell bottoms and stovepipes were not. In the Asian theater hundreds of thousands of American troops fought the guerrilla soldiers of the Viet Cong. In the na- tionts capital, Washington police sta- bilized the anti-war movement. Due to lack of funds, organization and commitment, the movements sup- porters were unable to maintain a strong and unified front against offi- cials of the ttsystemfi More often than not, the long-haired, blue-jeaned dis- senters simply dispersed if authorities threatened arrest, came riot-ready and club-equipped or unplugged the life- line of the protesteloudspeakers. As Rennie Davis and remnants of the Chicago 7 strove to focus the na- tional movement, other smaller fac- tions rallied across the 50 states. Leaders of the Peace Movement plan- ned simple, aggravating acts of civil disobedience as a way of facing up to the mammoth government. Protesters, referred to as Yippies and degenerates, sought sanctuary in community parks and targeted federal buildings, road- ways, key bridges and intersections for sabotage. Ironically, in their effort to protest the death and destruction overseas, this ttArmy of Peacei,-as one writer termed them-resorted to the guerrilla warfare that so appalled them, need- lessly destroying whatever obstacles stood in their way. On June 8, 1969, SIU-C,s Old Main building became just such an obstacle. University Photo Service 80 For 83 yearsefrom February 24, 1887, until its demiseeOld Main oc- cupied the pivotal site in the quad- rangle north of Anthony Hall. Euro- pean in design, Old Main housed administrative offices and classrooms for what was then known as South- ern Illinois Normal University. From its earliest days, Old Main was no stranger to disaster. It was erected on a rise in terrain which once hosted a settlerts strawberry patch. Old newspaper accounts reveal that Mrs. Sanderst patch had a curse on it. Although the origin of the curse re- mains unknown, its power became evident during the early stages of Old Maints construction when lightning struck a tree near the construction site. The tree toppled onto a contrac- tor, killing him. Less than a year after the first buildings dedication, a fire of unde- termined origin swept through the halls, reducing the three-story struc- ture to ashes and rubble. Nearly 86 years later it was the same scene-e-fireebut different cir- cumstances. This final Sunday after- noon assault resulted from arsone arson prompted by the tensions mounting between University admin- istrators and students. That particular Sunday-the first day of SIU-Cts centennial-a custo- dian making routine rounds in Old Main spotted smoke at 7:50 a.m. Im- mediately, he alerted Carbondales fire officials, who arrived at 8:15. At 8:25 firemen dragged hoses up the three flights of stairs to the origin of the blaze, an attic rifle range employed by the Air Force ROTC. The confused firefighters shuffled through choking smoke and found Obscenities scrawled across black- boards. By 8:45 Fire Captain Elmer Rod- gers had called surrounding communi- ties for back-up assistance while flames surged toward the north end of the building and its center tower. As firemen battled the flames, sev- eral hundred students gathered to watch, while an equal number joined SIU President Delyte W. Morris and Chancellor Robert W. MacVicar in carrying exhibits-paintings, papers and books-from the first floor mu- seum. At one point volunteers formed a human chain. At 9:00 the rescue effort was aborted when the central tower fell onto a fountain east of the building. By 9:15 the blaze had cut through the roof Features University Photo Service and trusses, which collapsed onto the third floor. Minutes later, ammunition in the attic began to explode. By 11:15 the blaze was squelched and firemen shut down pumps that had gushed 700,000 to 800,000 gallons of water onto the conflagration. For the next few days flre marshals sifted through the waste and found evidence of arson in three locations. The instigatortsi have never been found, despite the $10,000 reward once offered for the arrest and conviction of the culprittsi. Students preparing for final exams and anticipating summer break were unsuspecting victims of the arsonisttsi who forced administrators to resched- Features ule the spring finalsasome 70 percent of all the Universityts iinals-slated to take place in Old Main. In addition, many graduate students lost valuable research materials in the blaze and some educators 10st irreplaceable data gained from years of study. The Board of Trustees set aside $475,000 for the demolition of Old Mainis skeleton and the construction of temporary classrooms. The board considered several plans for recon- struction but has never replaced what many refer to as the cornerstone of modern SIU. To this day the open space bordered by Davies Gym, Shryock Auditorium, Anthony Hall and Quigley Hall serves as a reminder of the once great structure. One unidentiiied observer perhaps best summarized the events of that June Sunday: ttIt reminds me of the death of a friend. You get used to him being around. Old Maints majestic tower, rickety stairs and sweltering classrooms have always been here. But now dependable Old Main is sud- denly gone foreverajust like a friend dies and is gone forever ..... 0 Cl Umversnty Photo Semce 83 Doc's Used Body Shop Story By Michele Smith dDocls Used Body Shopll proclaims the sign over Robert ttDocl, Spackmanls desk. With a hefty potential clientele of students, faculty, staff and alumnus, Docis Used Body Shop gets quite a few bent and bruised bodies. In his 2 years as coordinator of Student Health Programs Spackman has treated some 6500 stu- dents, by his own estimation, for everything from pulled muscles to torn ligaments. Spackman firmly believes that physical training is some- thing people should think about before they are hurt. He believes that physical fitness should be a part of everyonels daily routine and he has made his point again and again in a weekly column ttFitness Past 50? His syndicated column reaches as far as 120 miles north of Carbondale and carries the instructions for many iso- metric exercises to benefit people. Material for the column has been spawned by booklets that the trainer has written for age groups of 8-50 and 50 and up. Does patients range in all age groups. tll see alumni of all agesfl he said. ttI had a woman in here the other day who I think was about 79. She didnt have anything else to prove that she had graduated from SIU-C, so she took her diploma off the wall and carried it in with her so she could get through the security gates here! ttIt doesnlt matter how old you are, if you can move it you can strengthen it. Its just a matter of getting someone to show you what to do, and then doing it, he said. Doc spends a solid thirty minutes with each client lead- ing them through an exercise routine that would strengthen the area they have injured. ttIf you donlt strengthen the injury, then youlre just an accident waiting to happen? he said. Spackman notes that most of his patients are desperate enough to try anything to get back into condition.

' Spackman obviously enjoys the work that started more than a quarter of a century ago after a brief stint in the minor leagues of baseball. He moved up to become a major league trainer and soon departed to come to SIU-C in 1960. ttEver since I was knee-high Pve always wanted to be an M.D., but I couldnt get into the field. There were too many trying to get in after the war? Doc noted. ttBut this was a pretty good substitute? Spackman, who earned a graduate degree in Physical Education from the University of Pennsylvania, empha- sized the importance of exercise. ttGravity is our own worst enemy.

Those who have entered Brien,s Forest and lived to tell of its beasts, swamps and eerie sounds are few. Machen the fighter and his comrades are the latest group to enter the forest. They know that an herb grows in Brienis Forest, an herb which can cure the kings daughter of her disease. The dense trees with the low-hanging branches make passage difficult; so Org, an elven fighter, attacks the obstructing limbs with his axe. Nehma the cleric carries a lantern but its light is little help in the thick darkness. Suddenly, a 7-foot-ta11 mirtbane leaps from behind a tree. The mirtbane, a hairy creature known for its immense strength, has arms with seven claws and red glowing eyes. Iso the thief pulls out his knife and attempts to stab the mirtbane. He wounds the creature in the shoulder but before Iso can kill it, the mirtbane tears off Isois arm. Machen then releases a forceful arrow which imbeds itself in the beasts heart. The mirtbane falls to the forest floor. N ehma is a healer for the group. She uses a spell to reattach Isols arm and the group continues on to iind the herb. Machen, Org, Iso and Nehma are characters in a fantasy world known as Dungeons 8L Dragons or D8zD. Each 90 character lives in the mind of a player. The world itself and the monsters are creations of the Dungeon Master who plans adventures for the other players. What kind of people would involve themselves in a game like this? Why would students spend their Saturday nights playing Dungeons 8L Dragons when they could be out partying on the Strip or watching television or taking in the latest movie with the rest of the SIU-C population? Dungeons 8L Dragons is an opportunity for players to act out fantasies, said Mike Berman, a pre-law student. Berman, who has been a Dungeon Master tDMl for three years, began playing D8LD while a student at the Univer- sity of Miami. itIn real life? Bermansaid, ttyou can be a little, piddley guy, but in D8LD, you can be a 20-foot-tall giant that swings his club and picks up buildings. Its a bit of an ego trip. In their exploring, the adventurers encounter demons, find magic items and solve riddles. Each situation is worth points according to its difficulty. With these experience points, players move from their starting point of first level to higher levels, becoming more powerful as they move up. The D8zD world is a serial. When players meet, they begin adventuring from where they stopped previously. And, like TV soap opera watchers, players become more involved each time they participate and they must play regularly to know what is happening in the world. To an outsider, D8LD is confusing and does not seem to Features photo by David McChesney Features have any relationship to real life, but some aspects are lifelike. Players have a certain number of gold pieces with which they can buy weapons, armor and spells. Time is measured in minutes and hours as in real life. Berman said that the game helps in real life problem- solving because players must think before acting and choose the best action for a particular situation. The Dungeon Master is the mastermind behind the world and the adventures. The DM draws a map of the continent, deciding the geography of the area, creating cities and determining the level of technology in the world. The DM must be prepared to answer any questions from players about his world. Berman makes different situations for each part of his world so that an adventure is waiting regardless of which way the characters choose to go. He dubs himself an toff- the-cuff DM because he does not write down exactly what will happen, but plans the dungeon in his mind. ltThe worst thing a BM can do? he said, ttis to make the party do exactly what he wants-go down this path, this way? Other DMs, like J eff Pleiter, a junior in civil engineering technology, plan everything that will happen. Because the characters do not know what is written, Pleiter, a DM for two years, can change his adventure if he chooses, so he does not feel that his world is less flexible than Bermanis. He also likes to write down the adventure because he can use it again with other people or, if his group wants to play and he has not prepared, he can pull an adventure from his file that he has not used with that group. ttThe object is to have a balanced game where people are overcoming problems presented to them, Pleiter said. If the DM creates a ltMonty-Hall style of campaignil where people get enormous wealth and powerful magic items, the players will get bored because it is too easy and not chal- lenging, Pleiter said. On the other hand, if the DM leads his group into a iikiller dungeonll where they meet enor- mous monsters and only a few characters survive, the players get discouraged. The DM,s role, according to Rich Benner, freshman in photography, is to offer choices to the players and play out what they choose. He said that players usually have one main mission in an adventure tsuch as finding the herb and make decisions to accomplish that mission. The DM has more responsibilities than the other players, Pleiter said. ttIf youire playing in somebodyls world, you just have to worry about one character. If you,re running a world, you have to worry about the world: all of the charac- ters and what they'might do? he said. ttYou have to run the monsters and the persona tshopkeepers, kings, common people; You have to invent the dungeon and everything in it, from mountains and streams to a cityis relationship to another if the characters want to move there. Berman, Pleiter and Benner live in Stevenson Arms and play in each others worlds. They get ideas for adventures from the monthly D8LD magazine, Dragon, and from sci- ence fiction and fantasy novels. The Dungeon Master serves as an actor, portraying the people and creatures that players encounter, and as a nar- rator, describing the area that they are entering. Players must react as they feel their character would react, not necessarily as the player would behave in real life. Each character is good, evil or neutral. Players use dice to roll up a character according to the DMis guidelines. The dice are not just the ordinary six- sided kind, but range from four sides to 20 sides. The dice roll determines a charactefs abilities of strength, intelligence, wisdom, dexterity, constitution and charisma. These ability scores help to determine what race and class a character will be, each race and class having particular advantages and disadvantages which are de- scribed in the Players Handbook, a 128-page book includ- ing tables and charts. Some race types are dwarven, elven and human while classes include clerics, fighters, magic- users, thieves and monks. Because the character will battle demons, monsters and whatever the DM brings into the world, players choose weapons for the character, the number of weapons deter- mined by character level. Weapons, listed in the handbook, range from hammers and clubs to swords and daggers. The dice, besides being used to determine character abili- ties, are used when confronting a creature. The player and the DM tplaying the monsterl each roll the dice, the one with the highest roll being the one who gets to attack first. When attacking, the attacker rolls the dice again to see if and to what degree the creature or person is damaged. The DM has various tables, one of which will indicate how much a dice roll was worth. If an adventurer has attacked, this amount is added to the total experience points. A DSLD character who dies as the result of an attack can be resurrected by certain classes of characters; however, a character can only die a limited number of deaths. If a character reaches its limit of deaths, the player can roll up a new character and wait for the next adventure to start. In Pleiterts world, players generally work together for the common good of the party. The adventurers try to help each other, Pleiter said. If someone dies, the rest of the party will usually try to resurrect the character. Although the same people play in Pleiterls and Bermanls worlds, the atmosphere is different. In Bermanls world, the people act more greedy and the player who did the most fighting usually takes the treasure, rather than giving it to the person who needs the treasure the most. Sometimes Bermanls players yell so much that the RA. warns them about the noise. But during intense moments, the players will be so nervous in anticipation that they will not make a sound. So how does the game end and how do you win? Berman said that these are the two questions than non-DSLD people ask the most. The world could go on as long as there is a DM and people who want to play and, he said, ttyou win by living through the adventure and gaining everything in the dungeon? While DSzD players find Dungeons 8: Dragons a chal- lenge and enjoy playing in a fantasy world, other people do not share the same enthusiasm. A girlfriend of one of the players complained about being neglected. ttHe lives his characterf' she said. ttIf he could, he would wear his armor? Some parents become alarmed because they read litera- ture or see a television show that portrays D8LD negatively and inaccurately. ttThe people who worry the most, like parents, donlt know anything about the game? said Pleiter. They hear stories about groups who go out at night in the woods and act out D8LD, but that does not usually happen? he said. ttMost people who play D8LD are disappointed by articles that come out? Pleiter said. Most portray the dark side and dramatize the game. Some make it seem as if only geniuses could understand the game, he said. 92 Pleiter said that some people do get too involved in the game, dressing as their character and smoking tlhobbit pipe weed,, while playing. Mike Bernhard, a freshman in radio-television, has only been a D8LD player for about three months. He could not understand how Berman and the others could spend a Sat- urday night playing the game; so one night he decided to roll up a character. Now he is a frequent player. Sue Allen,s parents, concerned that the game would interfere with her studies, worried about her becoming too involved. photo by David McChesney Features Features photo by Doug Janvrin When she first played, Allen, a sophomore majoring in business, felt odd about being the only female in a D8zD group, but became more at east as she became involved with her character. She said that because D8zD deals with fighting and pillaging, it appeals more to men because they have been trained to react in this manner more than females. Benner said he understands why some parents are con- cerned. ttYou have to make the separation between the game world you,re playing in and the real world youire liv- ing in, he said. ttIf you cantt make the division between the game and you start incorporating certain things into real life, you can get yourself into trouble? In spite of those who have negative feelings, DSLD play- ers will continue to roll their dice, kill monsters, fmd treas- urers and accomplish their mission. Machen and his com- rades will do what they must to iind the herb, to make their way out of Brienis Forest and to complete another adventure. El he Difference Is All The Same. Carbondalets homosexuals may come out of the closet, but the blinds remain down. Story by A. Steve Warnelis Student life at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale was meas- urably influenced in 1982-83, by an increased presence of gay and lesbian members of the community. For nearly a month, the talk of bars, the letters to the editor of the Daily Egyptianeindeed, the thoughts of many centered around how to make a statement about oneis sexuality as iblue jeans dayi approached, Thurs- day, October 28, 1982. The event, sponsored by the Gay and Lesbian Peoples Union iGLPUl, was the culmination of gay and les- bian awareness 1982'-a three-day series of public seminars about homo- sexuality and what a same-sex life- style is all about. It was, perhaps, the boldesteif not the iirst-attempt to significantly increase public under- standing of homosexuals on the SIU-C campus. The GLPU hoped in- creased understanding would in- crease acceptance. Whether it did is not at debate here. Rather, upon ret- rospect, the question, it would seem, is: ttWhat is life like for gays and les- bians in Carbondale? We attempted to scrape the surface of this broad question in a short amount of time. It was no easy deci- sion to do the story. Indeed, when the editor first asked me to write this story for the Obelisk II, even we dis- cussed using a pen name. After all, could we risk being mistakenly labelled ttgayil by the narrow-minded, the misinformed? Yes, we believe. For two good rea- sons. First, itts our job. A yearbookis purpose is to document signiiicant events that mark the passage of the time covered by such a publication. Second, I recalled the first time one of my friends told me he was gay. My response? So what, Ilm a journalist. In other words, we got over it-itis no big deal! Besides, as journalists, we are responsible for reporting the truth. And, the truth is-unlike the belief of someegays are not tta pass- ing fad? Consider at this point, then, the fol- lowing definition of homosexuality from the current edition of the Con- cord Desk Encyclopedia: H OMOSEX UALI TY: sexual activity or inclination involving members of the same sex; in women it is termed lesbianism. Almost every aspect of homosexuality is fraught with misin- formation, misunderstanding and scientific uncertainty. F urthermore, it is difficult to generalize about homo- sexual behavior. For example, one homosexual, particularly a man, may engage in hundreds of sexual en- counters, while others, in a trend that appears to be gaining, establish long- term relationships resembling con- ventional marriages. Likewise, some homosexuals practice a wide variety of activity, perhaps including sado- masochism, while others abstain from any kind of relationship because of inhibitions or social disapproval. Some homosexuals who are also at- tracted to the opposite sex and able to function heterosexually marry and have children. Freud believed that children pass through a homoerotic phase and that some persons retain and amplify their feelings from that period. While few specialists believe that anyone is ttborn homosexual, no one can fully explain why some persons and not others become disposed toward homo- sexuality. One theory holds that a boy or girl with a weak father and a dominant mother may become so in- clined, but many cases do not fit this h Features 95 pattern. The explanation does not seem to lie in differences in chromo- somes or hormones. Some evidence suggests that the tendency may be initiated or enforced if the child, for whatever reason, has low self-esteem or concern about his or her ability to fulfill the role society expects of a member of that sex. Homosexuals in- clude a wide range of personality types and may be found in all profes- sions. Psychiatrists generally reject the idea that homosexuals are, per se, emotionally disturbed. Homosexual- ity has been tolerated in certain socie- ties, as in ancient Greece, but it has encountered hostility among funda- mentalist Christians, who believe it to be proscribed by the Bible. In many countries, homosexual acts are not a crime, but the reverse is true in most states of the US. Despite occasional claims of suc- cess by psychotherapists and their patients, the likelihood of an individ ual being able to change7 to hetero- sexuality is slim, although a strong desire to change plus previous hetero- sexual experience may be helpful. For some, therapy offers a means for the individual to learn to accept his situation. You,d be quite justified to read that definition and ponder the words of former President J ohn F. Kennedy: The greater our knowledge in- creases, the greater our ignorance unfolds? To be sure, even this writer was surprised to find that-on a national scale-we may be very far away from enough of an understand- ing of homosexuality to be able to print the words that might be more acceptable to the public. I But, were getting close. In Carbon- dale, at SIU-C, life for gays and les- bians is not without its problems. Yet, it does seem to exist in a slightly softer niche than it might find just 30 miles from here in towns like Anna, Christopher, Marion or Pinckneyville. What emerges is a sense that-much like this city,s northeast side is noted for its concentrations of blacks-gays and lesbians are limited, socially, to one area of the city as well. Yet, much like the photographs in this book, life is not black and white, but shades of gray. And, the defini- tion of life for gays and lesbians in Carbondale, at SIU-C, has as many shades as the encyclopedia definition above. Of those shades, one is almost An organized group of gays and lesbians has been a part of the SIU-Carbondale campus, intermittently, for the past 12 years. First called the Gay Liberation Organ- ization from 1971 to 1974, it was inactive in 1975. Then, the Gay Peoples Union was formed in 1976. The G.P.U. was a strong organization until it was discontinued in spring 1979. In early October 1980, a group of gays and lesbians, most attending SIU-C or part of its faculty and staff, re-formed the organization. After that reformation, the G.P.U. continued along until fall 1982, when its steering committee voted to insert the word tlesbian, into the formal name of the organization. According to the fall events calendar of the Gay and Lesbian Peoples Union tGLPUl, the change was made, ttto be sure the title implies inclusion of both men and women? It did not bring a rush of women to the fold. V In its J anuary 1983 publication titled, ttNobody I Know Is Gay or Lesbian . . . Are They?,7 the GLPU is described as being Iifor anyone who has questions about alternative sexual lifestyles-whether to better understand others they care about or even themselves? In most of its programming, the GLPU attempts to prepare events open to the general public. It would seem the GLPU would have a tremendous membership. The Kinsey Institute for Sex Research es- timates that nearly 10 percent of the US. population is homosexual. GLPUts leaders and many of its members say the Carbondale percentage may be closer to 15. Yet, . the spring 1983 GLPU membership list totalled under 50 names. When I speak to groups on campus, I tell them that were not talking about someone twhots gayl on the other side of campusf Pat, GLPUls president, said. One out of every seven people here may be gay. Roommates, friends, brothers, sisters. And I challenge them to stop and think, Iwhere did my mom and dad stand on this issue? Thats why the GLPU exists in spite of who participates. Be- cause, until you meet somebody thatls gay or lesbian, the prejudice wont be challenged? One challenge the GLPU put in front of the SIU- Carbondale community was 11blue jeans day, touted by the GLPU as being held in hopes of raising the con- sciousness at SIU-CY, Though they may have met their stated goalebased on the response both pro and con on the editorial pages of the Daily Egyptian-GLPUls pres- ident gives the days results a cautious review. Features A Case of Apathy, ttWe donit need to alienate people by confrontation. We need them to make a statement but not force them lthe public, gays and straights alikel. tBlue jeans day' was uncomfortable for people who were undecided about either their sexuality or their opinion about the eventf, Pat said. He added that the idea did not originate at SIU-C, but is something the National Gay Task Force had developed years ago. GLPU member, Jim, coordinated blue jeans day and the gay and lesbian awareness week, events which it culminated. He says there were two goals in mind. ttWe wanted to build a sense of community among gays and lesbians, through a show of pride and support. And, we wanted to have an impact on the SIU campus so people would at least think about and address the issue of homosexuality. In our own way were committed to making this place better in which to live and go to school? Jim said. J im says he feels the day was a major success. ttPeople had to know that there were gay people around. We got people to think where they were with their own sexuality. We chose blue jeans day because, just as people consciously think about what theyire going to wear-even something as common as blue jeans-we wanted them to make that much of a decision about how they would deal with homosexuality. You only had to read the newspaper to know it had an effect! But, we were not wanting to force false support in any way? It may not have. One writer indicated that he and others formally observed 73 of every 100 patrons of the Student Center were wearing blue denim clothing the day before blue jeans day, On October 28, 1982 only 37 of every 100 was observed wearing jeans. The day after: It was 71 out of 100 persons. Critics of the event called it a cheap tacticf tdumbf tnot our amen to gay lifestyle and was pointed to by GLPUis opponents as proof that the organization ascribed to a tbeat-them-over-the-head, approach. They say it is best just to go on with their lives as gays and lesbians and let people adjust and adapt as they will. GLPUls president says he recognizes that some people cant be forced to change their beliefs and attitudes. But, he says, it is nonetheless important to have an organized group of people to promote the concerns of homosexuals. tBlue jeans day, coordinator-Jim-said that the only failure may have been that more was not done after the events were over. Features . uality is tamorall or tirreligious. Dash of Accomplishment. ttWe concentrated all our efforts on that one week. We didnit have follow-up programming? Some GLPU members told us they had hoped for greater health-related information to be available during awareness week. Little was being printed about Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome at that time, though it was not totally unknown. Others say they hope future such events will expand to include what it means to grow older and be gay or lesbian. But for the most part, they seem worried about the stability of the GLPU. With - such low participation, they fear it may be difficult to perpetuate the organization, as Pat commented. ttMy greatest fear is that there is ignorance among both straights and gays about what it means to be a homosexual. About why we should have all the same rights and privileges as heterosexuals. But for this to be understood, people need information to feel acceptance. Yet, most of us are brought up to believe that homosex- Pat, Jim and the rest of the GLPU leadership remain committed to the organization, nonetheless. The GLPU operates a speakeris resource bureau, providing public speakers for interest groups wanting to learn more of what a same-sex sexual lifestyle is all about. The GLPU holds bi-weekly potlucks, plans once or twice yearly pic- nics, and assists in related benefits. It may again conduct an awareness week in the fall if 1983, Pat said. The group hopes such events, not one of which touches upon forceful recruiting of members, will be a subtle enough approach to encourage greater participation by gays and lesbians alike. Meanwhile, they seem to meet a need for greater public information about gays and les- bians-something that would be more difficult to come by without them. ttPeople questioning their sexual identity shouldnit be labeled by others? Pat concluded. ttThereis already plenty of unjustness in society toward lots of people, not just gays. Someone has to undertake the responsibility to represent gay needs and stand up for their rights. The GLPU does this through activism, by encouraging changes in attitudes toward homosexuals, via education for straights and gays with facts, to foster a positive identity for gays and lesbians in the communityfl Pat said. ttSexual identity is only part of a persons dignity? El A. Steve Warnelis 97 white. It is nearly impossible to ispotl a homosexual. Despite the claims of one nationally-syndicated advice columnist, they do not wear a na- tional uniform of bomber jackets. And, earringseespecially among maleseare particularly difficult to interpret. In Carbondale, gays wear every- thing from sweatsuits to pinstripe suits, from sweatshirts with cut-off sleeves to classy button-down ox- fords. In between youlll find the trendy fashions that people first iden- tified as being gay-such as designer jeans. Lesbians wear everything from corduroys to coulottes, from scarfs to skirts and blue jeans, too. All dress smartly. Thus, add another shade of gray: education. Lesbians and gay men are in nearly every field of endeavor and making inroads to areas traditionally opposed to homosexuals: the military, clinical psychology, teaching as well as the fields which heterosexuals ster- eotype people as being gay if theylre in them, such as cosmetology, theatre, and food and nutrition. In short, gays and lesbians are everywhere. N ationally, the Kinsey Institute for Sex Research has estimated that a combined male-female percentage of 9.13 of the population-a figure fre- quently rounded to ten percent when quotedeare homosexual. This figure is widely accepted. That would mean that 03,000 of the students and fac- ulty at SIU-C, or about 5,000 of the people in Carbondale or about 20 mil- lion people in the United States are homosexual? The same GLPU-dis- tributed, 1983 booklet-titled ttNobody I Know Is Gay or Lesbian . . . Are Theyfwefurther quotes Kinsey re- search as showing 0that as many as two-thirds of the population report having had a same-sex sexual rela- tionship. Thus, it is probable that most people you know have consid- ered what a same-sex sexual expe- rience means for them? We could go on and quote from research and postulate its meaning, but we thought it best to let local gay and lesbian members of the commu- nity paint the other shades of gray for you. We talked to nearly 100 people- most casually, some formally. We found those formal interviews tend to reflect the fear and joy of being homosexual in Carbondale. The names are all real first names. The absence of their majors or year in school is not akin to tithe names have been changed? but, rather, recogni- tion of what our study showed: Most Carbondale gays and lesbians aren,t into labels. Their words tell the story. How would you define or de- scribe life for you as a resident of Carbondale? ANTHONY: IIQuite easy. And getting easier all the time. If people dont know Iim gay, I will tell them myself. Besides, the way I see it, if they cant accept it, they wouldnt have been a good friend anyway. GLENN: ttStifling. I came from a large Southern city with more than 200,000 politically active gays. Hn Carbondalej sexuality as a whole seems to be countered by local atti- tudes. Itis frustrating. KATHY: ttDifferent. Fm not very loud about it Imy sexualityl. I go to other bars in town than Mainstreet East? RUBY: 0Its been mixed for me, but somewhat easy. I lost friends when I came out, but live gained new ones since? PAT: 01 think of Carbondale as being the University. It has a small-town atmosphere, and one expects all that goes with that. Carbondale is a great place to come out? For those unfamiliar, to tcome out of the closet is the common phrase homosexuals use to explain that they have come to terms wth their homo- sexuality and are willing to admit it, not just that they may have had their first sexual encounter with a member of the same sex. But, although gays and lesbians in Carbondale donit worry a great deal about coming out, there are problems once they are out. What worries you leasUmost about living in Carbondale? PETER: ttI worry least about sex, itis everywhere. I worry most about hav- ing money. Being self-supporting is not easy, but I feel safe here and therels no cause for undue concern? KATHY: tiHaving someplace to go or something to do worries me least. Here in Carbondale, thereis a nice bar. The GLPU is here to help pro- gram for gays and lesbians and therels no problem socializing? BRENT: ttViolence. Harrassment. I worry about those least, but mostly I worry about confused straights? ANTHONY: uI donlt worry about peo- ple finding out Iim gay, but at the same time, the Violence scares me? A black, Anthony explains that being a minority within a minority is particulary frightening in his case. ttThere are three times more white gay males than black gay males. And, even though our race knows what its like to be oppressed, they dont like gays as much as straights donit like gays? KEVIN: tTm not concerned about dealing with my sexuality. If Fm going to express my true feelings for other people I cant worry about it. If people will take the time to under- stand, Iill take the time to explain. But, I worry about straight people who may have seen me leaving Main- street East. Ilve already been pretty roughed up onceft A number of people we talked to also told of incidents involving pa- m 98 Features trons of Mainstreet East. Some were quick to note that there is hardly a school-year weekend pass without someone, somewhere getting in a fight at a bar. Several also pointed out that many of those fights usually stem from arguments over someonels girlfriend or boyfriend and occasion- ally from accusations that one may be gay. The truth is, that Carbondale gays and lesbians go to most every other bar on the stripL-and even a few elsewhere in the city and out in the county. Few are worried about Violence on the job. Again, it is a case of most people not being able to lspotl a gay or lesbian. tThere are few telltale signs, unless you know what youlre looking foraand yould prObably have to be gay to know for sureJ So, add another shade of gray. About mid-way between black and white. Gays are in a variety of jobs in Carbondale. They sell you your clothes, your lunch or answer the phones in your academic departments office. They hand you your favorite hamburger, mug of beer, pizza slice, or help you copy your term paper, out your hair or keep your bicycle or car functioning. They entertain you, train you and keep you informed. The list is endless. Their jobs are not significantly af- fected by their sexuality, at least as far as their physical or mental work is concerned. But, getting or keeping a job is another story. Are you employed? Are you out at work? What has been the reac- tions of your co-workers or your superiors? J IM: nMost of the people were sur- prised when I told them I was gay, but what surprised me was the sup- port I got. But, somethink I can only work with other people who are gay, too. Some people have a reluctance to meet me if they know in advance, somehow, that Iim gay. Despite the academic department I work in la field growing steadily receptive to gays and lesbiansl homosexuality wasnt even discussed until five or six of us encouraged itfl ANTHONY: tlThere are 24 people where I work and all know that I am gay. The bosses are men. But, the two women who hired me for my on- campus job told me-when I told them later I was gayethat they hired me because I was gay. They said that Features from the way I dressed and the way I handled myself, they figured that I was either gay or well-bred. ttThey told me they found gay men to be more tidy with better public atti- tudes and a better attitude toward their work, too? MICHAEL: uWhen I was employed on campus, I really wasn,t out, al- though some may have known. I found the women accepted it better than the men, but I think I may have been dismissed from the job because of all the talk and speculation by peo- ple curious about who didnlt know? KATHY: ItWhere I last worked, there was no real problem. But, even though some may have known, the manager told me to come back after school. When I did, he didnlt hire me. I think I may have lost the job be- cause they found out, not because of the work I did? PETER: III think my being gay could cause me to lose my job only because I donit think I could do my job well if I wasnt out? Some people we spoke with are in- terested in teaching, the military or other fields where the public gener- ally expects high ideals and examples from the people in them. They told us, too, that they feared. they would lose their jobs because of their sexual orientation. Virtually all agree, how- ever, that such discrimination would be based on that orientation, rather than their ability to do the job. So, what of other types of discrimi- nation or oppression? How about housing? Gays in Carbondale have it slightly easier. This is, after all, a col- lege town. Many landlords are simply in the business of rental housing. Some place restrictions on the num- ber and sex of people who can live in their facilities. The University on- campus housing procedures, which have developed over decades, provide for co-ed tsame-sex by alternate suites or floorsl or all-male or all-female housing. Virtually no one distin- guishes between Istraights and gaysf Itls simply assumed that everyone is good friends and needs a room. Those we spoke with live in every quadrant of the city, and also outside its borders, as well as in on-campus residence halls. One common story has it that at least one floor has been given the nickname tNelly Hall: in part after the building in which it is located. Many with whom we spoke noted that of its 50 residents, nearly 20 were gay. Others told sto- ries of how their friends roommates found a mutual bond of love and friendship after one, then the other, came out-in the Triads, Thompson Point, off-campus, everywhere. So, for the most part, Carbondalels homosexual men and women have found a sense of community here. But what about the future? Our shades are darkening.

RUBY: itI certainly wont go where Iill get run out or burnt out. According to ttThe J oy of Gay Sex? by Dr. Charles Silverstein and Ed- mund White, ttIn every part of the world there are cities where gays con- gregate and resorts where they vaca- tion. In New York,s Greenwich Vil- lage or San Franciscots Castro Street area, a gay man is so accepted and so relaxed that he can stop identifying himself first and foremost as gay and move on to define himself lbyl what- ever other designation appeals to him? It would seem, then, that large cit- ies become ttgay meccasi, because of the built-in cushion of anonymity. In Carbondale, it won seem, gays and lesbians find acceptance here be- cause-first and foremost-predom- inantly, they are college students or associated with the University in some way. As such things go, they are merely looked upon as part of the itnecessary evilil of the Universityls presence. In addition, just as some three-fourths of all in-state students come from Chicago to ttgo as far i away from home and remain in- statef, so, too, do gay and lesbian . students come to Carbondale to be out anonymously-at least without their parents knowing it. Most are here first because of their career interests and how Southern Illinois University can assist them in gaining the knowledge needed to pur- sue those careers. Many come because of the region, the large state and fed- eral parks, the easy pace for the ttlocalsfl the friendliness of same and similar social reasons. They come from around the world, in part, be- cause the very nature of the Univer- sity setting is one that provides for theatre, art, and a good research institution that can help make the world a better place to live. But, just as people in the major cit- ies of the world do, gays and lesbians need access to medical and mental health services as well. Most of the services Carbondale homosexuals need are based on the SIU-C campus. At one time, the Health Services Wellness Center had a division known as the Human Sexuality Serv- ice. This agency provided a number of 9m e. , , a m'wtzmkm? J Center programs, attempting to rede- fine all programs to see what were doing, determine what we should be doing and the scope of those pro- grams. We also wanted to delete or resolve overlaps with other agencies. Especially in light of diminishing resources? That resulted in the Virtual elimina- tion of counseling for gays via sup- port groups. Cohen said that Wellness Center resources are available to all students, but they have had to limit individual counseling to five sessions. He said that, ideally, counseling needs-which may be rooted or caused by a medical problem-are more solidly based on a psychor ' M an Nov Am r... 5, gm W9 dim M I :1 am ..

The first reason being many people-for what- ever the cause-have as natural a hang-up about their sexuality and the processes of having sex, as that sexu- ality itself. But, within this past school year, the HSS was discontinued. This brought a negative reaction from Carbondalds gay and lesbian leaders. Critics of the move charged that pres- sure was put on the University to remove itself from the immorality, of catering to homosexuals. Although his comments are disputed by leaders of the GLPU, Wellness Center direc- tor, Mark Cohen, says discontinua- tion of many of the gay- and lesbian- oriented services of HSS was just one part of an overall restructuring of the Center. ttIn the last year or two there has been discussion of all of the Wellness socioremotional health level that cannot be handled by the Wellness Center, whose chief purpose is to teach prevention of illness. uWe have no anti-gay stance. We see our purpose now as being one of helping people deal with the impor- tance of sex in their lives and how to keep it in perspective.

In the 605 and 70s, the building sex- ual movements left very big gaps in our understanding of love and pro- creation-words you wont Iind in much of the research literature from that time? Despite consternation with the decision of the Wellness Center to eliminate gay support programs, Cohen says, the move has been bene- ficial for all. Cohen says he hopes the move may have been the impetus 100 Features Little has changed from its days as Second Chance. The interior wood decor under a slow-sloping ceiling makes it look more like a public playhouse. With the largest dance floor among Carbondaleis central core of bars and nightclubs, its small stage can be transformed with a little ingenuity to enhance its theatrical design. The upper balconies, generally closed to the public, are often used to coordinate lighting for show events. Tuesday through Sunday each week, Mainstreet East, 213 East Main Street, Car- bondale, becomes the center of attraction for a variety of people. Although its pa- trons are predominantly homosexuals, Mainstreetis large interior, emphasis on dancerdisco charted music, competitively priced drinks, and occasional specialty programming appears to draw a number of heterosex- uals as well. Yet, from the outside, you,d have no clue that Mainstreet East is casually noted as being the gay bar, in Carbondale. Even its owners feel the year-old business is more than just a bar. One of them, Paul, says he wouldntt rate Mainstreet East as the gay bar in town. But, his co- owner, Paulette, does admit to their business being some- thing of a paradox as gay bars go. uYouire more likely to see a segregated bar-all-male or all-female-political bars, bars for the older gay or lesbian group, etc. But, I dont think there is any sense in alienating half the subculture by excluding either males or females. We have to co-existft To be sure, Mainstreet East opens its doors to almost everyone-short of trouble. When I entered its safely-lit interior-I was asked if I was aware that ithis was a mixed barX I said yes, but was told upon further inquiry that its a matter of judgement that causes Mainstreetts doormen and women to ask. Based on ones dress or manner, the staff will ask the patron if he or she is aware of the regular clientele of the bar. When they say no, they are advised that gays and lesbians are also served. Mainstreet East staff report that of every ten people that must be told, six stay and some of those return again. Paul commented that this fact proves the need for a place where gays, lesbians and people who may be questioning their sexual orientations as well as straights with gay friends, can go to have an enjoyable night on the town. gIn Carbondale, wetve opened up an important entity that has increased gay awareness more so than in most other cities. Its a strange mix, a continuing education. There is more interaction between gays and lesbians Not just a one-way street. here, where in other cities-especially large ones-itts not that open and liberaY, even in the homosexual subculture. Paulette said that while its important to have a busi- ness like theirs, its also no big deal. ttUnless straight people deal with gay people, they wont have a good relationship with them. But, its really just an issue. There was great concern initially, but weive turned things around by being up front with people- which puts them off. Still, people donit come in here and make this a circus. Such a show may not be as entertaining as some of the many events Mainstreet East has opened its doors to. Among them, a theatri- cal fashion production to help raise money for the Rainbowts End PreSchool, a benefit for AIDS re- search, co-sponsored with the GLPU, and brought in the SIUC Dance Company for a benefit as well. Both Paul and Paulette - ,, ' report having a good rela- tionship with other business professionals in Carbon- dale-a reputation they ve had to build on their own. In mid-summer 1982, the liquor license for The Bar- the predecessor to Mainstreet East-was up for renewal, but was denied by the Carbondale City Council, sitting as the Liquor Control Commission. Commission members apparently felt that The Bar was not being run as a liquor establishment in Carbondale should have been- in light of a number of police problems. One of those, an alleged heterosexual rape, was never proven and no charges were ever pressed. Within a day of The Barts closing, Mainstreet East opened. It was the latest in a string of gay bars in Carbondale, including the former New Yorker tnow Channel Onel and the Washington Street Underground tnow Airwavesl. It was Pauletteis idea to start the business. iTm from the East, but had worked in this area. I felt Carbondale needed to have a place for gays and lesbians to go, and thought it was a good place to own a busi- ness? she said. ttPeople have been very nice, overall. were a healthy business? ttWe wouldnt be here for any other reason than to serve the gay community, but we couldn,t survive without the support of the straight community either? Paul said. ttI had always thought the Midwest was tred-neckedf but live been surprised and impressed at the acceptance here. I think well continue to do our part to foster that acceptance for some timef Paulette said. And thus, life goes on at Mainstreet East. And the living is easy. D A. Steve Warnelis behind gay and lesbian awareness 1982, and the shift of counseling pro- grams to the Counseling Center. Cohen commented further, that such groups are perhaps best handled by those familiar with the problems of being gayethe GLPU membership itself. However, the GLPU, while it does endeavor to provide a variety of social and informational programs for the benefit of the general public, is not disposed to handle the organization needed for support groups. And if coming to terms with being homosex- ual is as psychorsocioremotionally based as the Wellness Center appar- ently believes, then perhaps it was more than just seeing a chance to fill a gap that found gay support groups and counseling services beng handled by the Counseling Center. Steve Geiger is a counseling psy- chologist in the Counseling Center, and adviser to the GLPU. When asked about the change of the loca- tion for the support groups, Geiger speculated that it may have been a problem with the time commitment or personnel. He noted that the for- mer HSS coordinator, Sandy Landis, had been a major force in that pro- gram. Many of the changes at the Wellness Center occurred after Landis left. ttSome people think you go to coun- seling to get tfixed? The Wellness Center may have seen us as a more viable option to handling counseling of homosexuals? Geiger said. Perhaps. Life is short and its rough for all of us, our sexual orientations aside. Who hasnlt rushed home to the parents or searched out a close friend because one needed help, attention, love, guidance or advice. The needs are all the same. The problems are all the same, and most want to go where everybody knows their name. Geiger notes, however, that most of the counseling sessions he has had with people who have told him they are gay rarely deal with the fact that they are gay. ttGays and lesbians who come to a the Counseling Center come here for the same reasons as straights do: depression, drinking, drugs, stress from work or school, problems with their lovers, etc. Among gays and even some straights who come in concerned about their sexuality, they just need to talk with someone who can help them reason through. The difference is that when straight peo- ple have such problems, there is more support outside the counseling cen- tereamong parents, friends, and colleagues? It is for that reason that some gays politicize and form groups to gain public acceptance, according to Geiger, who has had previous in- volvement with universities where gays and lesbians attempted to gain support. Geiger says it is important for such groups to exist to provide an outlet for its members to deal with their own particular life pressures. tiIf we had to be secret about things we do all our lives, it would be frus- trating, Geiger said. He admits, however, that being adviser to the GLPU has not been without its more interesting moments. tiTo advise some groups means nothing to college instructors.

But, from a profes- sional interest viewpoint, its quite beneficial to be adviser to the GLPU, in spite of the occasional phone calls and pointed inquiries about my in- volvement with the group? he said. Thus, add yet another tint of gray- weire pushing black, now-giving us a woven tapestry of life in Carbon- dale for homosexuals. This shade: frustrations. Specifically, the fear of what their sexuality may do to their health. Straights worry about syphil- lis gonorrhea, herpes, cancer. So do gays and lesbians, but with a new addition. AIDS. AIDS is an acronym for tAcquired Immune Deficiency Syndromef Whereas the American press is sparse on articles dealing with homosexu- alityesave for the founding and charter members of the Gay Press Association-l982-83 has brought forth an expanding compendium of radio, television, newspaper and magazine articles on this most feared of lifeis maladyis.

The GLPU conducted a session in early April about gay health con- cerns. There, Dr. Ursula Anderson, a physician with the SIU-C Health Service talked about AIDS. ttAIDS has been recognized since about 1979. At first, it was only asso- ciated with gay men, and thought to be a disease. Its not. Its a condition in which the bodyis immunity system simply breaks down, opening you up to a host of opportunistic infections? Anderson went on to confirm that, as a result, AIDS victims don,t die from having AIDS, but from the myriad of complicating diseases that can result. But, what causes those IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 102 Features diseases? What are the effects? An- derson commented further. ttMany persons who have died from AIDS had some type of cytomegalovi- rus infection, but we dont know if that is the cause or the effect of a breakdown of the bodyls immune system? As we went to press, the latest information on AIDS indicated that 72 percent of all diagnosed cases were in gay men. As a result, derisively, AIDS has often been called the gay plague? Anderson pointed to one pos- sible AIDS-causing link. ttSperm causes the production of antibodies that suppress the immune system. And, semen, itself, carries cytomegalovirus. Biologically, only the female vagina was meant to receive sperm? The National Centers for Disease Control, according to Newsweek, report that itmany of the early victims had had more than 1,000 different sex. partners . . . The epidemic has now spread to include more conservative, even monogamous gays? Indeed, researchers now know that AIDS has the potential of being passed on to women via bisexual men. AIDS is also affecting intravenous drug users, Haitians, hemophiliacs, and even children. Out of the first 1,300 cases reported, 489 ended in death. CDC officials anticipate more than 2,000 cases will have been reported by the end of 1983. And for now, the most anyone can do is wait and hope that medical science can locate the cause, and, perhaps, a cure. During the GLPU session when AIDS was discussed, many asked about what research was being done. Dr. Ander- son reacted to the inquiries with a caution that we shouldn't expect posi- tive results. ttPeople seem to think that research is the answer to it all. That welll end up with a pill to help. I think that,s a denial of self-responsibility. So, how can you keep from getting AIDS? Be careful. Don,t be promiscuous. Have some respect for human values. If I said something that offended anyone, just forget it? But, Anderson tempered her admo- nitions with some insight, speaking strictly as a physician for more than three decades. uI see people who I diagnose as having herpes. When I tell them, they do a freak-out number. Especially $i6$g ' . m ges -V. when I tell them its no big deal. Herpes has been around since the time of the pharohs. Itls become a media-epidemic because of changing sexual mores. All that is new in medi- cine is there only because we are now able to identify it and give it a label? As one television report on AIDS concluded, ttAs far as mother nature is concerned, were just another spe cies dying. Thus, here we are. Welve passed quickly through many shades of gray. We may not have touched on the line grain of most of the areas. Indeed, we did not. We can only hope that others will. Perhaps. One pro- gram which does is the Health Edu- cation course GSE 240: ttHuman Relations Between the Sexes? Assistant Professor Phil Belcastro coordinates those classes. itWe handle it Ihomosexualityl like any other topic. We donlt teach mor- als or whether it is right or wrong. We attempt to use the most up-to-date data we can find. After all, a college education gives one a unique oppor- tunity to information. We discuss the many theories of the origin of homo- sexuality. Generally, the students bring up the social and moral issues on their own. Weire not in the busi- ness of making people more accept- ing. But, we are in the business of education? A chief tool of education is the book. Enter black. The color we don,t see enough of when we look for informa- tion on homosexuality. Ours is now said to be an information agef But, after exploring this topic in Carbon- dale, it would seem that the book has few words in black on white. We hope welve helped alleviate some of that problem. Yet, our effort is only a period on a Inlpvc'a-w w t x r QXV , xv : A . , ' 0;; ,3 i Q blank page. It would help if more could be known about the nature and character of the people who are gay and lesbian. They are willingeor at least so we foundeto tell their story. Unfortunately, it seems to take a journalist, a psychologist, an under- standing parent or a rare good friend to make them comfortable enough to come out, to discuss what it means to be gay-even in Carbondale. We may soon see more of that character. Belcastro told us a survey awaits tabulation that asked people outright, ttAre you gay, bisexual or lesbian? He hopes to make a contin- uing study of that and other ques- tions. Awaiting results, we remain hungry for knowledge. And, in the meantime too, the GLPU continues to promote a posi- tive public image of gays and lesbi- ans. Some Carbondale gays and les- bians say they are opposed to the IIbeat-the-public-over-the-head,I approach they see the GLPU taking. But if any approach advances learn- ing-thus, ttshowing how to think rather than what to thinkf then the objectives of this University have been served. Our call is for increased public information, including and particu- larly from gays and lesbians them- selves, with the hope of ttinspiring respect for others as for ourselves. To do so will suredly provide information to be consumed as knowledge. There is no guarantee that accept- ance will be the result, but a full, open and vigorous reportage of homosexu- ality and all its ramifications could move society along, so ttthat knowl- edge may lead to understanding and understanding to wisdom. Our effort will have been wise, if welre but one step. El W Features 103 photo by Doug Janvrin photo by Doug Features g; . M 293 Despite gloomy skies and forecasted rain, Springfest ,83 drew approximately 7,000 to the Old Main Mall for an afternoon and evening of games, music, food and fireworks. Springfest, hosted annually by the Student Programming Council, went smoothly after a few weather-oriented modi- fications. The five bands that were to perform on the steps of Shryock thoughout the day were moved into the confines of Shryock itself. , A party atmosphere prevailed as people packed the area-some to observe, some to participate in the various games of skill. These games ranged from typical egg- tossing and tobacco spitting to not-so-typical shopping cart races and a Trojan toss. The shopping cart race was the scene of thrills, chills and spills as two-person teamseone in the cart, one out-at- tempted to negotiate tight turns at high speeds. photo by Mark Crest Features The Trojan toss involved attempting to throw water and air-filled condoms through a pair of boxer shorts suspended on a pole. There were even events for the kinkiest kinds of people. There was an obstacle course in which two contestants competed head-to-head in dressing a mannequin, racing through the obstacles, and then undressing it to cross the finish line. Equally kinky and reminiscent of all-star wrestling, the Mashed Potato Wrestling Contest between two employees of Student Center Graphics attracted a large crowd as the wrestlers rolled around in about 100 pounds of mashed potatoes. After the last band, Shoes, hit their final note, the days activities concluded with a fireworks display over the Arena fields.

MEN Jr Football The play of veteran leaders Rick J ohnson and J ohn Harper high- lighted a 6-5 grid season that started promising, went sour in the middle, and then finished strong. Quarter- back J ohnson established 11 SIU-C passing records to lead an offense that operated without a strong run- ning game and Harper, playing in- jured for much of the time, was Mis- souri Valley Conference defensive player of the year. After winning their first three games behind J ohnsonis aerial circus t300 yards passing in two gamesi the Salukis went into a tailspin, losing four games in a row on a difficult road swing. The fourth loss, a setback by MVC winner Tulsa, ended the Sa- 110 lukis, playoff dream, but SIU-C re- bounded to win three of its next four to give Coach Rey Dempsey his fifth winning season in seven years at SIU-C. Special teams were an important part of the Salukis game in 1982. ttWe think we can win games with special teams? Dempsey said. uWe devote about one-third of the game to special teams. Most other clubs only spend about 15 to 20 percent ton special teamsV An integral part of the special teams as well as Dempseyis coaching philosophy, has been dedication. Dempsey, viewed by some as a work- aholic, works long hours, often exceeding the 12-hour mark. But 'Dempsey believes it is worth it. tiIfI didnt work that hard, where would we be? he said. Dempsey also added that a problem exists because the same coaches are not always around from year to year. ttA lot of time is spent in coaching the coaches? he said. Dedication can be contagious. The players picked up on it, too. Senior quarterback Rick Johnson is a player who brought dedication to the game, Coach Dempsey said. ttRick was a very normal kid when he came here? Dempsey said that other players with abundant talent might not succeed because they do not have the dedica- tion that J ohnson does. Helping on the defensive side were senior defensive end J ohn Harper and strong safety Greg Shipp. Demp- photo by Greg Drezdzon Sports sey said of Harper, uHe is the best defensive player wetve had at SIU-CW Harper is noted for his unassisted tackles and his ability to have a nose for the football. Shipp played free safety and strong safety and has been named to the UPIts first team all-conference and the APts second team. But the mainstay for the Salukis has been their offense. Assisting J ohnson were running back J eff Ware and wide receiver Marvin Hin- ton. Dempsey described Ware as ttdynamitet, with the idea that big things come in small packages. ttJeff is a player that gives 100 percent. He can spark a team. It,s too bad hes not a bigger person, though? Dempsey said. Marvin Hinton has been at the receiving end of many J ohnson passes. Hinton has egcellent speed and ttthe best hands on the team? SIU-C got more goodnews at the end of the season, when J ohnson and senior safety Greg Shipp were ruled eligible for one more season by a ret- roactive NCAA redshirt rule. El -JoAnn MarciszewskVBob Chura phOtO by Greg DFGZdZOH photo by Greg Drezdzon Sports 1 1 1 H arper ends successful Saluki career After a while, scrimmages at Mc- Andrew Stadium became predictable. A snap of the ball would send the defense scrambling into a fierce pass rush, while the offensive line strug- gled to protect its quarterback-un- successfully. A quick, elusive number 87 would slip in to reach the quar- terback and force him to the turf. So much for the pass-again. On the next play, a running back might attempt to slip around the end and into the clear, but would never get far. Number 87 would be there to stop him, with no assistance neces- sary. During the games, number 87 was even more lethal. He terrorized receivers until the opponent was forced to run its plays to the other side. A good defensive series against a particularly good adversary would elate him, but when the defense succeeded in forcing a 112 fourth down and the offensive unit , took to the field, he anxiously paced the sidelines until he could take his place on the grid and wreak havoc on the other team. It is no wonder that at the end of the 1982 season, number 87ls name- J ohn Harper-was widely known in the Missouri Valley Conference. Harperts talents and achievements were widely recognized and even though he suffered an ankle injury early in the season and was playing a new position, the defensive end- turned-linebacker earned many pres- tigious honors. His 58 solo tackles, '52 assists and seven quarterback sacks earned him the M.V.C. Defen- sive Player of the Year and the Sa- luki Defensive Player of the Year titles. The six-foot-one-inch, 230-pound linebacker also received spots on both the Blue-Grey and Senior Bowl photo by Brian Howe squads. Just to have the opportunity to play in the games was a step in the right direction? said Harper. ttI en- joyed the exposure of being around top name players from across the country. For a Saluki to be among some of the top players is a real compliment for the school, as well as myself? During the Blue-Grey game, Har- per forced an interception and a fumble within minutes of each other, which prompted a sideline interview. He was also in on ten tackles, sacked the quarterback once and blocked a kick. It was neither the coveted confer- ence recognition nor the national exposure of the bowl games that meant the most to Harper. His team- mates chose him as their Most Val- uable Player-a title he prizes above the rest. Sports Harper accumulated the respect of his teammates over his four year stint as a Saluki. The Tennessee na- tive came to SIU-C to play stand-up defensive end, a position he had never played before, but one at which he made himself at home for over three years. The big, speedy senior from Kings- bury High School in Memphis played fullback and tackle, earning all-dis- trict, all-city and all-state honors and showing enough potential to attract scouts from the University of Ten- nessee, Tennessee State and Mem- phis State, as well as SIU-C. iICoach tReyl Dempsey told me they were recruiting at defensive end, so I saw an area where they needed help. There was a possibility that I could play there if I really worked at it? He worked at it, racking up 227 tackles and 20 sacks over the three a position where, as a pro prospect, Harper would most likely be playing if his football career continued. iiThe way we play defensive end tat SIU-Cl is similar to a linebacker in the pro ranks? Harper said. this not really changing positions, it's just changing the name? The chance to join the pro ranks became a reality during his junior season; which Harper considers his best. His efforts during that season earned him the first of two Saluki Most Valuable Defensive Lineman titles and a position on the first team Sports years. The switch from end to line- backer came during his final season, all-conference, an honor that he re- peated his senior year. His play also gained him a spot on the honorable mention all-American team. Most importantly, his third season marked the development of his mental dis- cipline-which is what Harper feels was the hardest lesson he had to learn. iiMy junior year helped me develop a winning attitude. It was better than earlier seasons because the attitude- that to be successful youtve got to work hard-carried over to my senior year. Besides the winning attitude, the all-American status also carried over. In his final season at SIU-C, Harper was elected to the second team all- American for small colleges. iiIf you,re going to be any type of ball player you,ve got to understand 9 photo by Davnd Booton Harperis insistence on perfection and natural athletic ability combined to make him a defensive machine. Some have referred to him as the best defensive player that SIU-C has ever had. It is a title that the hard- hitting, soft spoken young man would modestly like to shrug off by giving the credit to others. Entering fall training camp his freshman year, the newcomer was carefully looked over by menacing upperclassmen and given a name he has been unable to shed. With a look at his ears, the name tlScoobyll be- that to play, youlve got to play your position to perfection? he said. iIAnd thatls giving 100 percent on every snap of the ball? came his forever. IiWhen you first come to camp, everyone looks at you to see what there is about you to pick on? he explained. iiIt just so happens that I resembled a dog on a TV cartoon, so I caught the name of Scooby D00? He grew to terrorize quarterbacks with an uncanny ability to pass rush and intimidate running backs with his speed and size. Both Harper and the pro scouts realized his abilities at the same time. And being chosen as a third- round pick in the USFL draft only confirmed his status as a front- runner for the pro ranks. He declined a contract offered by the new Denver Gold team, and chose instead to wait for the NFL draft; where he went to the Atlanta Falcons in the fourth round. Harper is patient and has no team preference for his forthcoming career. IiAs long as I get the opportunity to play, I donit care where I go, how I go, just as long as I gof, said Harper. iiThafs a high enough honor for me? Harper conceded that he wants to play for a team that em- ploys a lot of pass rushing and quars terback blitzes. Even thoughts of many more years of sacking quarterbacks, tackling backs and rushing pass plays have certain drawbacks to the big man with a soft spot in his heart for SIU-C. Harperis Saluki loyalties run high and he is reluctant to leave his college life behind. 516s hard to leave people that youlve found and come to love and enjoy playing in front of and being around. Its really hard to walk away from it all? he said. Though more people than ever before will be watching Harper, and he will be wearing a different jersey, he will still be the same number 87-the one who made a name for himself at SIU-C. El -Tracy Tucker Field Hockey Coach J ulee Illner,s team whipped through its regular season building up a 19-4 mark along with hopes for an N CAA bid. The fielders were headed for disappontment in the inaugural GCAC tournament, however. The team was undefeated at home going into its first game of the tour- nament which it hosted at McAndrew Stadium. After receiving a first round bye, the team lost to darkhorse Indi- ana State 1-0 in overtime. The Salukis then defeated Northern Iowa to iinish third in the GCAC. The Salukis rolled to victory in their first three games, but bowed to Miami Of Ohio for their first setback. One problem the iielders had this season was an inability to beat nationally-ranked teams. The Iowa Hawkeyes defeated SIU-C in October 114 and N orthwestern dominated SIU-C in a 2-0 wipeout. Coach Illner said that against nationally-ranked teams, SIU-C played poorly or had the breaks go against them. tlBut we learned from playing those kinds of teams? Illner added. Illner wants to continue playing the top teams. She said, 2That is the only way well get recognition. We need to play- top 20 schools, but we need to play those teams in the bottom half of the top 203, By playing those in the lower half, Illner feels that her team will face solid competition and still have a chance of winning. This year the iielders offset a live game losing streak to Western Illinois University. Both wins were 3-0 against WIU, they are itunfriendly rivals? according to Illner. UOZpZBJG M03919 Two notable areas were shutouts and total scores. The Salukis strung together 15 shutouts in 1982 and wound up outscoring their opponents 70-20. Two top goal scorers who gave opponents headaches ended their stay at SIU-C, Ellen Massey and Cindy Davis. Massey firmly established herself in second place for the all-time scoring lead at SIU-C behind Helen Meyerls 126 goals with 82 total. Mas- sey was selected to the Mitchell and Ness Regional All-Star Team in the Western Region of Division I to cap off her college career. Davis scored nine goals in 1982, bringing her final total to 45. She was a good penalty stroker for the Salukis as well. The field hockey team will lose five seniors after the 82 season. 1983 will be somewhat of a rebuilding year, but with their hopeful recruits and regu- lar players, the Salukis should be ready to bounce back. El -JOAnn MarciszewskVBob Chura Women,s Cross Country Confidence turns teams with little talent into contenders. It transforms powerful teams into champions. It is what the women,s cross country team lacked in 1982. ttOur biggest problem was that we didn,t believe in ourselves soon enough? Coach Claudia Blackman said. Senior Dyane Donley fit into that group. After starting off the season slowly, Donley improved. Blackman said, 0Dyane saw the light in the tunnel and got better. She turned in her best time at the state meet? The number one runner for SIU-C was senior Rosa Mitchell. Mitchell finished first for the Salukis in every meet but one. Her best 5,000 meter time this season was 18 minutes and 33 seconds. Blackman, the cross country coach since 1972, said, ttRosa was our team leader this year. The kids looked to her first. It was because of Rosa that the rest performed as well as they did? Running behind Mitchell this year was freshman Lisa Reimund. Rei- mund was the strength of the younger runners on the team. She shone some light on the Salukisi future. Blackman said, nLisa ran the last two and a half weeks injured, but she still remained our number two runner? Another bright spot was recalled by Blackman. ttWe didnit give up this year. We were better than our times indicated? Blackman would like to see her runners train more in summer ses- sions. She felt that the lack of enough training put the team behind, and that affected the teams coniidence. El -Bob Chura c ': a c m s an 3 o O ax .D o .C Q Menls Cross Country The ments cross country team missed qualifying for the NCAA Dis- trict V Championships by four points to Oral Roberts University. However, the Salukis did salvage third place. Coach Bill Cornell said, ffWe made one bad tactical move during the race. We didnlt start out quick? The loss was disappointing to everybody. Cornell said, ttEvery- bodyls down in the dumps around here? Also, senior team co-captain Tom Ross had tttears in his eyes7 after the loss, according to Cornell. If anything, the Salukis were af- fected so deeply because they had run a near perfect season up to that point. In dual meets and in larger competi- tion prior to the district meet, SIU-C had defeated 26 teams without a loss. Including the qualifying race, SIU-C had surpassed 35 teams throughout the year, while losing only to Colo- rado and Oral Roberts. Coach Cornell, 15 year veteran of the coaching staff at Murray State and a 19605 Saluki record-holder, guided SIU-C to a 35-2 record in this first year. Cornell replaced the illus- Womenis Golf trious Lew Hartzog after Hartzog left the head coaching position to concen- trate primarily as SIU-C,s athletic director. Was there pressure on Cornell to live up to Hartzog,s accomplish- ments? ttThe only pressure I had was the pressure I applied to myself? Cornell said. Part of this is attributa- ble to Hartzog coaching Cornell when he ran at SIU-C. Also, Hartzog stayed close with Cornell during his stay at Murray State. Cornellls coaching philosophy, like others, has been to blend in speed work with distance training. He gradually inserts fartlek and interval training as the season progresses. How important is speed work to Cor- nell? ttI wish the high school coaches would keep to the shorter distances as much as possible, he said. Cornell added that a runner can always get distance running in. In preparation for races, Cornell likes to alternate five-mile races along with the 10,000 meter races. Cornell said that it is difficult to run back-to- back 10K races on the weekends. A The womenls golf team started to find their range this season, their first as a member of the Gateway Colle- giate Athletic Conference. Throughout six season tourna- ments, the Salukisl play was respect- able. Their top finishes included first place of seven teams at the Illini Autumn Invitational, third place of 13 teams at the Purdue Classic and fifth place of 10 teams at the 22nd Annual Illinois State Invitational. The golferls scores were not too shabby in the other three tourna- ments either. At the Indiana Invita- tional, SIU-C finished sixth out of 11 teams; at the N orthern Intercolle- giates, the ladies wrapped up tenth place of 21 teams; and at the Lady Kat Invitational, the Salukis tied for eighth place out of 17 teams to close out the season. F ourth-year womenis coach, Mary Beth McGirr, saw highlights during the season. McGirr said, lIThis season we were more consistent as a team. Also, I think a bright spot was our individual finishes. 116 Individually, junior Sue Arbogast led the team in three of the six tour- naments. Abrogast, from Edwards- ville, captured fourth place at the Illi- nois State Invitational, her best solo performance in the fall. Two other players, Jill Bertram and Lisa Kartheiser, were memorable for their consistency, too. McGirr said, ttJill and Lisa are our steadiest playersein terms of their smartness and their ability not to make a real bad hole. Lisa Rottman-Bremer deserves rec- ognition, too. She averaged a 79.9 score in the fall and helped out SIU-C with her tough play near the greens. In teamiplay, the Salukis improved over last years strokes. Their team average was reduced to 317.66--more than 11 strokes under last year's total. Improvement is needed and McGirr said that it will need to come on ucourse management? Weill need to work on our short game? McGirr said. 71f the short game improves, SIU-C should be able to tchip away at even more strokes,m she added. Cl eBob Chura runner will be a little more burned- out, he said. SIU-C runners were far from the burnout stage this year. Team co- captains Mike Keane and Tom Ross finished near the top practically all year long. Keane crossed the finish line as the first Saluki four times this season. Ross, described by Cornell as an tlawfully gutty runner, was con- sistent as he was always one of the first four Salukis to finish. Freshman Kevin Sturman provided additional support as he was SIU-Cfs number one man three times in the fall. El -Bob Chura Men,s Golf Coach Mary Beth McGirr per- formed twin duties for the first time in the fall of 1982. She took control of the ments golf team in addition to coaching the womens team. McGirr said it was difficult coping with both. She added, tht was harder for the girls, I think. The guys were supportive of it? McGirr felt that the men might have found it easier to cope because they tend to be more self-motivated. She also said they like someone with stability. The men performed up to par, so to speak, especially in two tournaments. In the Murray State Invitational, SIU-C finished fifth out of 11 teams and at the SIU-E Invitational, they were runners-up out of six teams. J an J ansco of J ohnston City had the best individual average during the fall campaign with a 77. McGirr said, IIJ an is more of a streak player. If he gets rolling, he is capable of burning up the golf course? Benton native Bob Hammond, de- scribed by McGirr as 7a heady V player? lent his consistency to the team. He finished the fall with a 77.3 score. A great addition to the team was Scott Briggs, a transfer student from Kewanee, Illinois. Briggs shot a 77.5 for the season and closed out the sea- son in fine fashion at Illinois Central College. At the ICC Tournament, Briggs shot well enough to take fourth place out of 58 players. They need to be steadier to make any progress. McGirr said, the always seemed to have one bad round all year long? Cl eSheryl Chisenhall Sports Volleyball Coach Debbie HunterTs team had a winning record, 22-14, and was rated in the Top 20 for two weeks during the regular season but fell short in its quest for an NCAA bid. The pinnacle of their season came near the end of October when SIU-C made their mark on the national vol- leyball map. During that time, the Salukis were ranked number 19 in the nation. That represented the first time the women were listed in the national poll, which started in 1981. The Salukis low point came in late September against Illinois State. The Illinois State duo of Cathy Olson and Cindy Harris teamed up to put SIU-C away in four games. Three seniors made their presence s ports felt in many of the Salukis wins, however. All-American Sonya Locke was not afraid to let her many talents out as a middle blocker. Coach Hun- ter said of Locke, itShe has a mag- netic personality and she is pleasant to work with. Hunter added that one of Lockeis strengths was her tre- mendous jumping ability. Strengths did not elude middle blocker Bonnie N orrenberns either. ttBonnie is so strong? Coach Hunter said. In fact, in the Illinios State match, Norrenberns provided the only spark for SIU-C. She had 13 kills and served four aces to keep SIU-C in the match. Hunter said that Norren- berns also responded to the opposi- tion well by ufocusing on the cues of photo by Mark Crost her opponents? Setter Barb Clark had a knack for reading the opposition, too. Coach Hunter said, ttBarb knows how to manipulate a teamis arsenal and expoit their weaknesses. On the trip to Texas in which the Salukis faced several top 20 teams, the women were mentally fatigued. Being on the road caught up with the volleyballers. Coach Hunter, however, did not see the trip as a major disap- pointment? Overall, Hunter was pleased with her teamTS play. 1tWe were very poised throughout the con- ditions? she said. The Salukis national ranking con- firms that composure. El --JOAnn Marciszewskl 117 Womenis Tennis She may not be tennisi answer to Don Shula, but womenis tennis coach J udy Auld surpassed the 100-wins mark during the 1982 fall season. Auld, in her eighth season, coached the Salukis to a 13-2 mark, upping her career record to 103-80. tilt makes you feel like youive accomplished something? Auld said of the 100th Victory. Auld said her success and the teams play indicated that the tennis program is taking a giant step forward at SIU-C. Last season, three top playerse Lisa Warrem, Heidi Eastman, and Alessandra Molinari-were hampered by injuries and surgery. The three recovered and made their presence 118 felt in 1982 as is evidenced by an impressive record. tThe players are back to their old form? Auld said. SIU-C managed only two setbacks this year, the first at the hands of awesome N orthwestern and the sec- ond to Memphis State. Auld said the Salukis played well against N orth- western, but Northwestern is a nationally-ranked team with great talent and great recruits which makes them tough to beat. The Memphis State match was a different story, Auld said. ttEmotion- ally, we werenit in it? One pleasant surprise, according to Auld, was the play of Mary Pat Kramer, the number one ranked player in Iowa three years prior to this fall. Auld said, HMary Pat hasn,t begun to hit her peak yet. She should be at the top of the lineup in the future, Auld said, but a lot depends on SIU-Cs recruits. Lisa Warrem, the lone senior and the number one singles player, put together an impressive 10-6 record against other teams best players. The season finished on a high note with SIU-C sweeping a weekend se- ries on October 15 and 16. The highlights of the fall campaign were victories over Louisville and Murray State, Auld said. SIU-C also ttpicked up points from everybody, she added. CI -Bob Chura photo by Gregory Drezdzon Sports Men1s Tennis With only two seniors providing the experience on the roster of a very young team, maybe great things werenlt expected from the men3s ten- nis team this year. But the ever optimistic coach, Dick LeFevre, took his team through a very tough sched- ule and came out strong. The team finished the regular season at 11-13, defeating perennial tough teams such as Murray State and Memphis State. Though only a freshman, Per Wad- mark found a niche at No. 1 singles, being the only Saluki freshman ever to step in at that position in his first collegiate match. He was also the first SIU-C player ever to be ranked in the 'Top 100 in the three-year history of photo by Gregory Drezdzon Sports the Coaches Poll, moving as high as No. 59. The two seniors, J ohn Greif and David Filer, formed a strong doubles team at the No. 1 position, compiling an 8-11 record against the best offered by SIU-C,s opponents. Greif is an exceptionally strong dou- bles player, while Filer has provided leadership to the entire Saluki squad. The only sophomore on the squad, Gabriel Coch, utilized his strong serve and groundstroke to compile an 8-15 record and the foundation for strong seasons as an upperclassman. Freshmen filled out the lineup at No. 5 and 6 singles. Rollie Oliquino started out slow, but won seven of his last eight regular season matches to ll 3i; ; boost his record to 11-12. Scott Krueger did just the opposite, starting as the most consistent Saluki singles player, but slumped at the end, losing six of his last seven. Overall, it was what LeFevre called a 3very progressive and positive sea- sonl, for the young Saluki squad. 33We definitely have a great tennis team for the future. D -JoAnn Marciszewski 119 Womenls Gymnastics Chalk the ,83 season up as a learn- ing experience for the SIU-C womenls gymnastics team. The Saluki gymansts had a 12-10 dual season, scored a commendable 177.45 to capture the Iirst Gateway Conference Invitational, and was one of only 35 teams nationally to qualify for an NCAA Regional. Along the way, a freshman-laden squad gained one lesson after another and valuable experience which should pay off in time. Coach Herb Vogel will remember his 20th season at SIU-C as one that was for the most part encouraging. l1We didnlt accomplish as much as we had anticipated? Vogel said. ttBut we set some high standards and didntt forsee some key injuries in early season that hurt us. For the most part, I was pleased with the way our season went. I was disappointed in how we showed only on two occa- sions. That was at Iowa State and in our meet with Oklahoma State? The loss February 4 at Iowa State stopped a four-meet win streak with the Salukis scoring only 166.00 although Pam Turner and J ackie Ahr placed one-two in all around. Okla- homa State was one of only three teams to upend SIU-C in Carbondale; the Cowgirls put together an impres- sive 175.85 team score and an awe- struck Saluki team was out of the meet from the start. From early February to seasonls end, SIU-C surpassed the 170-point scoring barrier six times. The Salukis outpointed archrival Illinois 07160-170851 and came within a hair of upsetting mighty Missouri 07380-173751 before putting it all together in the GCAC Invitational. A season-high team score in that meet helped SIU-C atone for earlier set- backs to Illinois State and Western Illinois. Turner, a junior from Ansonia, Conn., netted GCAC honors in all around with 36.55, finishing just ahead of Ahr 135.801. Turner Won bal- 120 photo by .Gregory Drezdzon Sports ance beam with a career-high 9.3 and claimed second in uneven bars t9.1l and floor exercise t9.15l. Lori Steele t9.2l and Regina Hey t9.0l placed one- two in vaulting with the latter ending up fifth overall in all around 65.40; Ahr, one of six Saluki freshmen, also had her moments in ,83. The Harrison, Ohio native tallied a per- sonal high of 36.45 to capture all around against Mizzou in late Febru- ary. That aggregate was built on 9.5 marks in beam which tied a school record. Ahr had other commendable highs as well in vaulting t9.05l, bars t9.D and floor t9.05l. She had five 35- plus scores and averaged 34.50 while making her collegiate debut. Season-high event scores for SIU-C in ,83 included 44.85 on beam in the GCAC Invitational. That aggregate was built in part on Mary Runckls Menis Gymnastics After a lackluster 5-10 1981-82 sea- son, the 1982-83 campaign was greatly anticipated by the menis gymnastics team. And with good rea- son, as Coach Bill Meade had put together a squad that had the poten- tial to be the strongest heis had in his 27-year career at SIU-C. No one was disappointed with the results of the season. Led by Brian Babcock, the Salukis qualified for the NCAA champion- ship meet for the first time since 1977. Despite being without the services of freshman standout Brendan Price, the Salukis finished as the ninth best team in the country, scoring 275.95. Babcock placed third in the all- around competition, winning All- American honors in that plus three individual events. The N CAA was the climax to an exciting season. Four of the five home meets were close battles against tough teams, three of which finished among the top 10 in the country. The J an. 15 opener set the pace for the SIU-C season, when the Salukis edged the Ohio State Buckeyes 272.75 to 271.95. J unior J ohn Levy starred in that one, albeit inadvertenly. At the end of a nearly flawless high bar rou- photo by David Booton brilliant effort that resulted in 9.25 marks. Otherwise, the Salukis com- piled a vaulting high of 44.65 at the Indiana Quad, a floor high of 44.55 and a bars best of 43.90. The major disappointment of the season was a sixth place showing at the Central Regionals. SIU-C had hoped to do better before the home folks in the season finale but got off to a horrendous start in bars t40.85l and beam t41.70l, and never recov- ered, finishing only ahead of Indiana in the seven-school fleld.

Unhurt and undaunted, Levy returned a few min- utes to repeat his routine, and re- ceived a 9.8 The team went on to string together eight wins before facing powerful state rival Illinois. The Salukis reached their second highest total of the year, 278.30, but couldnt catch the Illini, who went 280. The pressure had been building for this confrontation since the begin- ning of the season, and the Saluki gymnasts responded by turning in some of the best sets they were to do all year, including a 9.75 on pommel horse by Herb Voss, 9.75 by Tom Slomski on rings, and Brian Babcock received 9.65 on floor exercise and 9.85 on high bar, being awarded a 10 by one of the four judges on the latter event. Also a big highlight of the season was the third-place performance at the UCLA Invitational, When the Salukis scored 278.80 for their high mark of the year. Records were set and broken all during the year. Price scored 9.9 on vault, and Babcock scored 9.9 on parallel bars and pommel horse. The season also showed the poten- tial for following seasons. Though without the services of All-Americans Bobcock and Slomski, the squad next year will have strong returnees. Besides Price, Voss and Levy, Kevin Mazeika, a solid five-event gymnast will return as will David Lutterman, a pleasant surprise from New Zealand, who as a freshman, made steady progress and came into his own at the N CAAs, including a 9.35 on high bar, an event on which he had not per- formed during the season. El -JOAnn Marciszewski 121 Dedication. It is the one word to describe what has made Brian Babcock one of the premier gymnasts in the country. From November 1982 to April 1983, it led him to enjoy one of the most, in his own word, ttunbelievable seasons an athlete could have. It was this dedication to the sport that drove him through months of rehabilitation after knee surgery in February, 1982. After a nine month layoff from competition, Babcock traveled to Lincoln, Nebraska, with his teammates to the Big Eight Invi- tational for the seasons opener in November. He scored what was at the time the SIU-C 12-event all-around high, a personal best mark of 112.60. Taking up even higher than where he had left off, marked the beginning of what was to be a fantastic season for the Saluki senior. The climax was a series of meets in April. After a dual meet season fea- turing steadily improving scores, the Saluki team appeared at the NCAA championship meet April 7-9 at Penn State. Aiding SIU-Cis drive in estab- lishing itself as the ninth best team in the country was Babcock,s all-around performance. His 115.70 named him the third best collegiate gymnast in the country. One week later, he was competing against more of the countryis best, including Mitch Gaylord and Jim Hartung. At the Emerald Empire Cup in Eugene, Oregon, Babcock set a Saluki six event all-around record, tying for first with Nebraskas Scott J ohnson with 58.80. Three individual marks either tied or set the SIU-C records he had set earlier. Pommel horse: 9.9, Parallel bars: 9.9, Rings: 9.8. He also holds the record on high ' bar: 9.85, and floor exercise: 9.75. His accomplishments are numer- ous. His attitude stays the same: frank and honest about his work, never cocky, in Coach Bill Meadeis words, the ttnicest gymnast Iive ever worked with? Pure and simple, Bab- cock loves the sport. itEverything is working out the way Pve always wanted it? he said, reflecting on the Emerald Cup meet. It is the gymnastis hope to go higher, though. He will stay in Car- bondale and work on his biggest goal: qualifying for the United States 1984 Olympic team. It is not hard to be optimistic that Babcock will reach it. photo by Gregory Drezdzon L .3, , R ' I h - He has caught the attention of judges, athletes, coaches and specta- tors. He shows elegance and grace as he perfoms his routines. He shows no sign'that he was ever injured, yet those who know cant help but think how far he has come. Overcoming a knee injury, a type that has ruined the careers of so many athletes, was no easy task. 91 think hes made an unbelievable recovery? teammate J ohn Levy comments. 8N0 other has the emo- tional and physical drive to come back to the position that hes in on the U.S.team. 1 Babcock has had to frequently uti- lize that drive when recovering from injuries. The summer after his knee surgery he biked 10 miles a day, and worked his left knee to a point where it was stronger than his healthy right one. 51 guess to be good, youive got to be able to deal with painein any sport. It means a lot to do this well, but I just want to compete. I enjoy this sport too much to pamper any injury? And with his dedication, he will be enjoying it for a long time to come. El -JOAnn MarCIszewski 122 Sports Women,s Basketball It was the year of the dream team for Coach Cindy Scott, whose sixth year at the Saluki helm produced a 22-11 basketball club. The Salukis, with two seniors and three juniors in the starting lineup, fell just one game short of claiming the inaugural Gateway Collegiate Athletic Associa- tion title, losing to their perennial nemesis, Illinois State, in the confer- ence championship. To get there, SIU-C garnered what Scott called her biggest victory as a coach, stunning second-seeded Drake in the semi- finals in N ormal, avenging her regu- lar season losses to the Bulldogs. It was a year of achievements for the cagers. The 22 victories, including arrecord 11-game winning streak, were the most ever by a Saluki woments team and put Scottls career total at 99. Connie Price, the Salukisl junior center, led the nation in shooting almost the entire year, converting at a .703 clip, only to finish third in that category with .650 after a downhill slide following a broken finger. For- ward Sue Faber, whose No. 44 has been retired, graduated as SIU-C,s all-tirne leading scorer and rebounder, as well as claiming the team title in assists. That duo was not without help. Junior guard D.D. Plab, perhaps the most underrated, and certainly one of the finest guards in the nation, kept opponents guessing and specta- tors in awe all season with her head- spinning passes and lane-clearing layups. Plab was amply backed by senior transfer Rose Peeples, whose red-hot hand in the latter part of the uuAuer Snag Kq oioqd season posed a double-threat in the backcourt. J unior Char Warring, the team scoring leader, was as potent as any power forward in the conference, and won many a game for the Salukis when opponents chose to stack the defense against Price. Both Warring and Price were selected to the all- conference team. The Salukis were one of only 40 womenis teams to receive a bid to play in a post-season tournament. Though falling one game short of playing in the N CAAs, they did travel to the N ational Invita- tional Tournament. At the N IT, the Salukis finished sixth, with Warring selected as one of 10 All-NIT players. The Salukis also finished the season ranked in the Top Twenty in the na- tion in field goal percentage and defense. CI tCourtesy of Womens Athletlcs Ments Basketball Another losing record, a long hard 9-18 campaign, pressed heavily on Darnall J ones and the Saluki seniors that dominated this yearts edition, but at least it was an improvement on recent years, and the Salukis did establish a foundation for future improvement. Under the tutelage of third year Coach Allen Van Winkle the Salukis slipped into the Missouri Valley Conference tournament, and played well in a narrow loss to even- tual champion Illinois State. J ones, along with veterans J ames Copeland, Charles Nance, Karl Mor- ris and Dennis Goins, suffered through some hard times, but J ones was the teamts MVP and set a record for consecutive games played in a career. Short cm height, and limited talent, the Salukis battled throughout, and usually stayed close until the waning moments of games. Harry Hunter was an entertaining figure at home games. His infectious hustle inspired the stirrings of a fan club, potentially promising to a team that did not draw well at the gate. D photo by John Racine photo by'Gregory Drezdzon 124 Sports photo by Gregory Drezdzon Sports Outstanding Women Salukis I In a year of many firsts for the Saluki Womenls bas- ketball team, a lllast may be remembered most of all. It was Sue Fabefs last season at SIU-C-and her all- time scoring record of 1507 points and all-time rebound- ing record of 1014 may outshine the teams 22-win season and 11 game winning streak. These honors, along with many others, prompted an- other first for the program; Faberls jersey, number 44, was retired before the last home game of the season. For the 182-83 season, Faber led the team in assists, steals and blocks while averaging 7 rebounds and 10 points per game. These accomplishments showed that, while she began as a shooter for the Salukis number 44 had matured into an all-around player for the basketball squad. Coach Cindy Scott calls her a complete player and one who has had great influence on the program. Scott also feels that F aber would have been an All-American, had she not been injured. Faberls injury followed a stunning 20-points-per-game average during her sophomore season. She hurt her knee during the second game of her junior year and gained an injury hardship and was forced to sit out a year. El photo by Gregory Drezdzon What can a coach do with a swimmer who acquires 14 first place finishes, two pool records and 6 All-American honors in one season? In the case of Pam Ratcliffe, you name her Female Athlete of the Year. Ratcliffe qualified for the NCAA Nationals in five individual and four relay events. She became an All- American in four of her own events and shared in two relay events. Overall, the three-year letter winner was responsible for over one-fourth of the Salukis 123 points. SIU-C placed ninth out of 66 schools. As an Individual Medley tIMl specialist, Ratcliffe was pleased with her end of the season performances. llThe most memorable event would either have to be my 100 IM at the NCAAsfl she said, llor my 200 IM at the US. senior nationals where I placed seventh and made the University team? The University team is a 21-member squad that will complete in Edmonton, Canada at the World University Games. Ratcliffe was also chosen to participate in the annual N ational Sports Festival. Presently, the Carbondale native holds five individual school records and shares in four relay records. She also gained two pool records at the 1983 NICls.

El -Sheryl Chisenhall 't as photo by Gregory Drezdzon 127 photo by Greg Drezdzon 128 Menls Swimming J ust before NCAAS, the team notched one of its biggest Victories 0f the season, its fifth National Inde- pendent Championship in six years. The Salukis had more than 100 points separating them from their newest adversary, Miami, which had broken the Salukist string of championships the year before. The Salukis also claimed four indi- vidual titles: Conrado Porta in the 100 and 200 backstroke, Larry Wooley in the 100 breaststroke and Keith Arm- strong in the 100 freestyle. SIU-Cls depth was a big factor in the NICs, as it built up its point total by placing several down in the line in many events, such as in the one-and three-meter diving where J ohnny Consemiu and Nigel Stanton took second. During the dual meet season, con- sistant diving by those two along with Tom Wentland and Jim Watson was a highlight for the Salukis. At the NCAA regional qualifying meet, though, the squadls performance was a little less than usual and only Stan- ton advanced to the national championships. Although only a freshman who joined the team in J anuary, Stanton, a native of Great Britain, made a big impression in collegiate competitions and won the teanfs most valuable diver award. Wentland, a 24-year-old who has been diving for only three years, con- tinued to make gigantic strides and won for the third year in a row the teams most improved diver award. Other team accomplishments noted at its annual banquet, including Chris Shaw as the teamls most im- proved swimmer and Armstrong as the most valuable. The athletes werenlt the only ones honored during the year, as both swimming coach Bob Steele and div- ing coach Denny Golden were se- lected to accompany members of the US. national team to competitions in Europe. Steele traveled to France and Holland in late J anuary, and Golden to Russia and East Germany in March. D -JoAnn Marciszewski Sports photo by Davnd McChesney Menis Track The only question that bothered Lew Hartzog at the start of his 23rd year as coach of the menis track and field team was whether his gang could pull off an encore performance in 1983. It didnt take long for his 83 track- sters to relinquish any doubts that they could be just as goodaor even better-than last years squad which won the Missouri Valley Conference and Illinois Intercollegiate indoor and outdoor titles and ranked among the top ten dual meet teams in the nation. iiThaUs big stuff, Hartzog re- minded his gang at the start of 83. uBut with a little work, it wouldnt be impossible? And he was right. After finishing second to Illinois at the indoor Illinois Intercollegiates, the Salukis re bounded to run away with the Mis- souri Valley Conference Indoor Crown. But it was outdoors where the Salukis shined. On the dual meet cir- cuit, they bombed N ortheast Louisi- ana 82-63, had top showings at the Domino Pizza Relays and knocked off both Indiana State and Lincoln tMOJ University. After being nipped by Big Ten Indoor Champion Indiana 78-76 in Bloomington, the Salukis rebounded to destroy arch-rival Illinois 96-53 in Carbondale, getting revenge for the loss earlier in the state meet and mov- ing further ahead in the SIU-C Illini dual meet series 12-4. Individual performances were at their peak. Little big man Michael Franks, a sophomore from St. Louis, M0., qualified for the NCAA Track and Field Championships in two events, breezing the 200-meter dash in 20.60 and romping in the 400-meter dash in 45.93. And while the 19-year- old was running some of the best times in the nation in open events, he continued to anchor the 400- and 1600-meter relay teams to explosive times. And then there was Stephen Wray, the high flying junior from Nassau, Bahamas, who barely missed the world mark in the high jump at the Commonwealth Games in J anuary. photo by Gregory Drezdzon 130 Sports photo by Gregory Drezdzon His two attempts at the WR 7'8 failed, but his 7'7 proved to be one of the highest leaps in the world. Wray continued to assult long jump bars, winning in almost every meet and staying consistently over the bar at 7'4 . The Salukis were also paced by the efforts of no fewer than 27 letter- winners, including MVC champions Terry Taylor in the long jump, Andy Geiser in the pole vault, Ken Mattias in the javelin, and Parry Duncan in the hurdles. The Salukis strength was hard to pinpoint. It was safe to say, all down the line Tony Adams, Mark Hill, J avell Heggs, Marvin Hinton and David Greathouse in the sprints, Gary Munson, Mike Keane and Tom Ross in the distances, and Ron Marks, David F eatherston, Tom Smith, Kevin Baker, Gavin Harsh- barger and Jim Sullivan in the field events. Newcomers were impressive. Fresh- man Mike Elliott, a potentially sub- 1.50 half-miler, weightman Karl Schneiter and freshman Kevin Stur- man all got into the swing of things and performed exactly the way Hart- zog expected: like Saluki trackmen. Cl -Ken Perkins photo by Dawd McChesney Sports 131 Womenis Softball The Salukis, after losing their hrst three softball games, could have given up-but they did not. itOur heads weren,t downf, Coach Kay Brechtelsbauer said. 1You have to put things into perspective. She added that those three games were against good teams-Western Illinois University and Missouri. After those initial losses, the women worked together as a team. They pitched well; the team ERA was 1.77. They hit well; four players bat- ted over .300 in the autumn season and extra-base hits came easier, quite a turnaround from last year. And they ran well. This year, the Salukis reached base. Once they got on base, they were Virtually unstopable as they stole 18 out of 21 bases. And in the end, the results read 10 wins and six losses. The softball team had come back. They finished strongly, winning their last six games and eight of their last 10. In the hitting department, Kelly Nelis hit .311. She stroked out 14 hits, including four for extra-bases. Coach Brechtelsbauer, in her 16th season, said, itKelly does it all. She is small, but has tremendous talent? Brechtelsbauer elaborated, 1She is good on defense and is a smart base runner. She can hit, and she is able to hit with power? Also, Sue Wagoner strengthened SIU-C,s attack. 11She is the toughest out on the team,n Brechtelsbauer said. The coach went on, ttshe has a good stance and isnit fooled very often? The results speak for them- selves as Wagoner reached base a a photo by Doug Janvnn team-leading 23 times and had a .511 on-base average. Sophomore Diane Broe was a de- fensive asset at third base. Broe is an all-state defensive player, who Brech- telsbauer said ttplays the bunt extremely well? After SIU-C played a good defen- sive home tournament, they made errors in the second half of the sea- son. Brechtelsbauer said that they were not horrendous kinds of errors, but they resulted from a lack of concentration. To compensate for the errors, SIU-C,s pitchers came through. The Saluki pitchers did not rely on veloc- ity, but control. Leading the way was Meredith Stengel. She compiled a 4-0 record and a .076 ERA. She struck out 20 and only allowed two extra-base hits.

The Student Life Advisor program continues to be a valuable asset to Southern Illinois University at Carbon- dale by helping ease new students, fears by introducing them to our campus and the university lifestyle. A new five day orientation program was offered to all new incoming freshman and transfer students and the over 200 SLAls made it a great success. Each SLA is a group leader for fifteen or more new students and is responsible for taking them on tours, facilitating activities, answering questions, extending a feeling of warmth and friendliness to make them welcome at SIUC. The Student Life Advisor has significant impact upon a new students overall impression of Southern Illinois. The SLA must provide accurate and meaningful information and participate in activities that will prove invaluable throughout the Orientation session. In essence, the Student Life Advisor is to act on behalf of SIUC throughout the new studentls orientation. 225 Student Life Advisers FIRST ROW-Ieft to right: Kat Clapper, Matrina Saffold, Andrea.

Groups and Organizeitions CAMPUS REBELS SEIZE BUILDING Q CARBONDALE tAPIa I. M. Kidding Years of campus calm were smashed into non-existence Monday as a radi- cal college-based faction took over the administration building of the campus of Southern Illinois University at Carbondale. Using the cover of night, a group calling themselves IiThe Obelisk Lib- eration Armyii invaded Anthony Hall, the university,s central administration building, and began throwing furni- ture and most of the office equipment through the windows. ItWe have to make room for the presses? shouted one member of the group as they stormed the building. Although no shots were fired in the takeover, there were two injuries re- ported. Apparently two of the mem- bers of the group got into a fight over Staff who was to take credit for the groups actions. Although there has been no official contact with the O.L.A., one observer at the scene reported that one of the attackers began shouting that the papers were going to trim my name in 36 point light italic all around the page? Upon hearing this, observers at the scene said, another of the attackers pushed the unidentified man out of a second-story window. The man was apparently unhurt, how- ever. He recovered enough to elude police and run back into the building. Since no contact has yet been made with the group holding the building, no one is sure of their demands. Stu- dent body president J erry Cook specu- lated, however, that the group, ru- mored to be members of the college yearbook staff, was not in favor of efforts by the student government to take over operations of the universityis student yearbook. I cant imagine why they are getting so huffy. All I sug- gested was that they and WIDB merge with the Student Programming Coun- cil so that I could keep a closer eye on what theyIre doing. So far efforts to make contact with the group holding the building have failed but police are still trying. ttAll theyill say is IWeive got to get the presses running! Weive got to get the presses running!m said an SIU-C po- lice representative. He said that he has no plans to use force to rout the group from the build- ing. ttTomorrow is Wednesday and theyill have to leave the building to go to Quatrois for pizza and cheap beer. When they do, well just take the damn building back? D 283 Lisa Tecklenburg-Advertising i Doug J anvrin Editor-in-Cief anwgsory Hiatus. m should 33v. Gotta; 1:13!
