■ V c ■ ’ ’ ' V- -J ' ’ .. •!.; VICTORY. A 88-85 win over Texas in the NCAA Midwest Regional in Dallas gave Oliver Miller (25) and mascot Jeff Wingo something to cheer about. Although the last Arkansas victory of the season, the win ended Texas ' season and sent the Razorbacks to the Final Four for the first time in 12 years. K. CRIPPENS PHOTO ■ r - ’ ; V ' ■. ••• ,V ' ' THROUGHOUT the nation people have heard about the Razorbacks. Maybe it’s the unusual mascot. Perhaps it’s the crazy fans calling the Hogs. Or perhaps it’s the athletic teams themselves. After all, Southwest Conference championships in football, baseball, indoor track, outdoor track, cross country and men’s and women’s basketball are enough to make almost anyone raise an eyebrow. Making the NCAA Final Four and the Cotton Bowl also made some people do double takes. However, athletic accolades were only the most visible accomplishments. The University’s 14,281 students and 3,435 faculty and staff were constantly TURNING SOME HEADS. We ' re Turning Some Heads ON THE COVER Razorback athletic teams turned some heads throughout the state and the nation. Crazed Razorback fanatics, including sophomore Keith Liles, also turned some heads in Dallas as Arkansas fans invaded the city for the Cotton BowL J.

Sure, there were traditional events like Redeye, Diversity Day, Homecom¬ ing and graduation. However, big happen¬ ings made the year memorable. The big news started weeks before students arrived on campus when work¬ ers finally started to renovate Old Main. Days after the student invasion, Ray Thornton, UA president, resigned. Foot¬ ball coach Ken Hatfield also left for Clemson. Internationally, the Berlin Wall, which had separated East Germans from the West since 1961, came tumbling down on Nov. 9. Closer to home, the football team made its second consecutive Cotton Bowl appearance and the men’s basketball team reac hed the NCAA Final Four. Month after month, students, athletes, Greeks, scholars, faculty and staff were constantly TURNING SOME HEADS. With the growing concern about the environment, David Cox and John Adel, members of the American Society of Landscape Architecture, promote Earth Day 1990 with a booth in front of the m 0 UTTLE TOO LATE.

A national ESPN television audience watched as Arkansas claimed a 19-10 Homecoming victory over Baylor in the first evening game played in the stadium. Heads turned as crazed Razorback fans in¬ vaded Dallas for the Cotton Bowl and Denver for the Final Four. Arkansas failed to earn either a Cotton Bowl victory or the NCAA Champion¬ ship, but fans enjoyed a banner sports year. Turn the page for all the details.

Out of the three bids received by the University, Baldwin Shell Construction Co. submit ted a low bid of $9,848,952 to re store Old Main. Most of the changes will occur in the interior of Old Main, with only minor changes planned for the exterior. D. ALLEN PHOTO GATE CRASHING During the gate crashing during the summer, Chancellor Dan Ferritor speaks to a croud of approximately 500. “The ‘hated fence was a bar rier that had to be scaled in order to succeed, and that was what the University was doing.” The eight foot fence blocked students from Old Main for eight years. D. ALLEN PHOTO Student Life AFTER STANDING VACANT, LOCKED BEHIND A FENCE, OLD MAIN UNDERGOES A DRAMATIC C onstruction workers start restoring the state ' s symbol of higher education after a Save Old Main fund drive raises $11.3 million. My parents had classes in Old Main during the ‘70’s when they only used the first floor of the that it will be neat to be among the first to take classes in the renovated Old Main •ng considering my parents w «e almost the last JENNIFER ROBBINS BY LIZ VANZANT Towering above the campus and secured by an eight-foot fence, Old Main stood silently empty. Students wondered whether they would ever see the oldest building on campus and the symbol of higher education in Arkansas bustling with activity. However when classes resumed in the fall, plenty of activity was taking place behind the fence. Pounding echoed from inside the old structure. Construction lights flickered in the windows. Dump trucks and wheelbarrows circled the building. And along with the construction came the anticipation that the aging wreck would once again stand with pride in the center of campus. While students were away during the summer, a crowd of 500 watched Chancellor Dan Ferritor and ASG President Eric Munson cut the chain that locked the fence around the 115- year-old building. Construction was underway. The project is a restoration rather than a renovation. Work¬ ers will repair the parts of the building that remain. Any rebuilding will match the original construction. Declared unsafe in 1981, the structure, which opened in •1875, was vacated and fenced to keep vandals and students out. Fund-raising campaigns were conducted and a total of $12 million was raised by 1989 through state revenues, private donations and a bond issue to pay for the renovation. “The restoration of Old Main is necessary. The building rep¬ resents the beginning of the University,” said sophomore Shan¬ non Mayhew. When the work on Old Main is completed there will be 100,000 additional square feet of space. The extra space will house the offices of the J. W illiam Fulbr ight College of Arts and Sciences, the office of the president, classrooms, labs, auditori¬ ums and faculty offices. The restoration project will also provide the structure with air conditioning, elevators and new rooms. The cost was estimated to be about $11.3 million. Even though most of the fence still stands, Old Main’s facelift should should be completed by the spring of 1991. And the fence will be removed for good. OUT WITH THE OLD A Baldwin Shell Construction worker removes unwanted material that can’t be salvaged in the restora¬ tion of Old Main. “The purpose of the project is to repair what is dam¬ aged, rather that replace it,” said project superintendent Karl Bartley.

BY MATT STEWMAN Scott Biggs was in, well, hog heaven. Nearly everyone around him at the Cotton Bowl was dressed in Razorback red. Chants of “woooooo, pig sooey!” split the air at regular intervals. And Biggs was feeling safe and secure with a plastic hog’s head fitted neatly on his head. “The Cotton Bowl was one big party. It was a great way to celebrate New Year’s Day,” Biggs said. “Everything was great except the score of the game. Razorback fans left Big “D” for a second year without a Cotton Bowl victory as the Tennessee Volunteers claimed a 31- 27 victory. Although disappointed by the game, Razorback fans still managed to have a good time ringing in 1990 at the nightclubs in Dallas. The Anatole Hotel was the “Razorback Headquarters,” so fans scrambled to get reservations before the team’s hotel was booked. Others had to “settle” for the nearby Stouffer or Marriot hotels to be close to the team. Freshman band member Britt Gathright said he had a blast. “It was like a childhood dream come true being with the Razorbacks on New Year’s,” Gathright said. Popular eating places with the Arkansas crowd were such tourist attractions as the Hard Rock Cafe, Billy Bob’s, The Filling Station, the Trail Dust and On the Border. After a healthy dose of Dallas food, fans hit the clubs to celebrate New Year’s. Some headed west, to the West End that is, a favorite for thousands of Arkansas fans. A series of bars and clubs in the heart of downtown Dallas, the West End offered diverse music and entertainment. However, most of the action was in the street as Hog calls were mixed with “Rocky Top” when the Arkansas fans and Tennessee faithfuls got into a cheering war. Unlike the previous year when few UCLA Bruins fans traveled to Dallas, there was almost a Volunteer fan for every Razorback fan at the Cotton B owl. At midnight, hordes of red and orange clad fans embraced in unity while singing “Auld Lang Sine.” Following the game, most of the dejected fans lined 1-30 heading back to Arkansas. Although the Razorbacks lost, many still had signs prominently displayed, and shoe-polished cars were not washed for the trip home. Razorback pride was still alive, as was the memory of the Mobil Cotton Bowl and the parties which had preceded it. • COTTON .FEVER For the second consecutive year the Razorbacks played in the Cotton Bowl. And for the second time, fans showed up in Dallas with all their Hog paraphernalia on, only to watch the Razorbacks be defeated.

MOORE PHOTO Talking Heads Everywhere I looked, there were fans decked out in red and white and calling the Hogs. I have never seen so much spirit in my life. I felt proud to be a Razorback when I was sitting in the stands. The game was okay considering we lost but the atmosphere and the spirit was something to not miss out on.

Arkansas fan Phillip Callaway, of Fort Worth, — dressed in a plastic hog hat, a gold Hog ring and red cowboy boots — decided to be entrepreneurial about the situation. He bought four of the $48 tickets for $300, then sold three of them for $100 apiece. “So I actually got in free,” Callaway said proudly. But fans found that having a ticket didn’t guarantee a good view of the game. As fans peered down at the basketball court they realized they could have seen the game better on their television sets at home. With details like tickets and seats out of the way, all that basketball fans had to worry about was the game. For awhile, Hog fans had reason to doubt Arkansas would be c Denver-bound.

I ' m glad we got the opportunity to go. The Razorbacks may not be back for another 12 years. DAVID MUNIZ Final Four CONTINUED But at the Final Four, the Razorbacks had to do it without the thousands of loyal fans who cheered them on the victory in Dallas. Tickets to the Final Four sold out months before, and only the University’s scholarship donors could get tickets through the University. A fter reality set in, fans realized they had to start working on ways to get tickets once again, this time to the Final Four. One fan said he had discovered the perfect solution — “Visa, of course.” Fans who were able to get tickets to the game in Denver saw the first Razorbacks to play in the Final Four since 1978 when the famed “triplets” — Sidney Moncrief, Ron Brewer and Marvin Delph — led the Razorbacks to a third place finish. The Hogs also reached the Final Four in 1941 and 1940, when the NCAA field was only eight teams. This year, 64 teams competed in the tournament. Although Duke was in the Final Four in 1978, Arkansas and Duke had never faced each other on the basketball court prior to the Final Four. “I’ve never ever played Duke,” Nolan Richardson said. “I’ve never played against Coach K. (Ken Krzyzewski) I’m looking forward to playing another team from the ACC.” Richardson got his chance, but the outcome isn’t what he wanted. Trailing by 10-points with a minute and a half to play in the game, Duke won, 97-83, and Arkansas surrendered. The dream was over. Although Arkansas fans were disap¬ pointed, most realized the Razorbacks advanced further than 60 of the other teams in the NCAA Tournament. And even before University of Nevada-Las Vegas knocked Duke off to win the title, Hog fans were already talking about the possibilities of making the Final Four the next year. • DENWR-BOUND.

It has been a great honor to represent the University and Arkansas for two years. MIMI YOUNG BY KIM TRACEY “GO HOGS” could be heard all over the hill. Looking around the Greek Theater, sophomore Brittany Rogers saw nothing but screaming fans wearing red and white clothes. Even though the weather was a little cold, students called the Hogs to fire the team up for the Homecoming game. “The pep rally really brought out the spirit in everyone,” Rogers said. “Even though there was a spirit contest, I think people really would have gone out of their way to cheer on the Hogs.” Calling the Hogs is one of freshman Kris Edwards’ favorite traditions because it always gets the fans motivated. “The calling of the Hogs is the best because everyone yelled with tremendous spirit,” Edwards said. “Even though the weather outside was cold, the atmosphere was full of excitement and hope for a win at the game.” But, there was more to spirit than attending pep rallies. The Lady Razorback program launched a promotion with local businesses to raise the spirit at Lady Razorback basketball games. “Different sponsors gave away tickets to the games and all kinds of prizes,” junior Deborah Crosby said. “Once the fans came to a game, they could easily get tickets to attend more.” Crosby added that the team did do better when the atten¬ dance was high. “With all their excitement and encouragement, we were able to get more up for the games and excited,” Crosby said. Many believe one reason the Lady Razorbacks did so well at the NCAA tournament, falling a game short of the Final Four, was because of the motivation and encouragement provided by the fans. “I don’t think they would have beat UCLA if the fans had not been so supportive,” injured player, junior Sue Pack said. “The fans played an important role in the game.” Another sports team trying to increase attendance at its meets was the women’s track team. Junior Cynthia Moore said the team received more support this year. One group that seemed to support all different types of sporting events was the Razorback Band because it always generated excitement when it played its chants and songs. Ed¬ wards believed the band added to the games and pep rallies making them more fun. “The band was a great advantage to the pep rallies and football games,” Edward said. “It gave the people a chance to dance, really have fun , and get into the spirit.” • Razorback Spirit FROM WATCHING CARTOONS TO SLEEPING WITH A FAVORITE STUFFED ANIMAL, COLLEGE STUDENTS BREAKDOWN AND BECOME eing a grown up isn ' t easy, but no one said it would be. Although society expects college students to act their age, students occasionally took out the toys and enjoyed play time. BY TINA CANFIELD It has been said that the only difference between men and boys is the price of their toys. Most students would agree that al¬ though they are adults, ranging from 18 to 80 years old, they were still kids at heart. Senior Dorothy Selig enjoys watching cartoons. “Cartoons are a religious event in my house,” she said. Selig wasn’t alone. Senior Scott Stewart confessed to watch¬ ing Saturday morning cartoons. So did junior Carter Freeman. “I love watching the Road Runner,” Freeman said. Cartoons were indeed a common denominator that adults shared with kids. Playing video games was another way of having fun that wasn’t limited to the bubble gum crowd. Rusty Thomas, a junior, claimed that he was an Outrun fan. “Every time I go to Food-4-Less on Highway 71,1 stop to play Outrun — I’ve been playing it since I was a senior in high school.” Nintendo and computer games were as popular as arcade games. “It’s a way to get at my anxieties and cuss at something that won’t cuss back,” sophomore Jeff Soderling said. Kite flying was another way of letting loose and having fun. John Farrell, senior, got together with his friends to fly kites in the parking lot of Tara Apartments or at Lake Fayetteville. Malania White, freshman, still liked to blow soap bubbles and have tickle fights with her boyfriend. Senior Mike Copeland still liked to climb trees. Sophomore Jorjana Gladden admitted that she still goes through Kay Bee Toys to play with the test models. Gladden also confessed that she still took bubble baths with Mr. Bubble. Another sophomore, Sandra Wood, still enjoyed passing out May Day baskets. Snowball and water fights, reading comic books, building model planes and watching Star Trek were among the many interests of senior Roy Hallquist. Sandy Webb claimed she enjoyed ambushing people in her dorm by attacking them with a water gun. “I like to shoot people and watch ‘em run,” she said. Sophomore Don Johnson, said that he still ate Trix cereal, but what he enjoyed most is “getting the toy out of the cereal box.” And, sophomore Phil Reid still slept with his teddy bear. From playing Nerf basketball to watching cartoons, students proved they could still be adults and act like big kids. • 16 Student Life MY BUDDY.

I am all for acting like a kid. I have to act responsible most the day and it’s nice sometimes to just act immature and be able to get away with it. I was unable to act like this at home and now I can. CHAD EDELEN NINTENDO POWER The only way you can tell the difference between men and boys is the price of their toys.

Although, we have excepted the gift of God into our hearts. DEREK FORD CONDEMNER Students headed for the Union Plaza to hear the sermon of Brother Jim Gillies, a young preacher who con¬ sidered himself a divinely inspired messenger of the Lord and everyone else a fornicator. Gillies claimed rock music, miniskirts and homo¬ sexuals were all the work of Satan. R. ROBERTSON PHOTO FLUNKED QUIZ.

ROBERTSON PHOTO BY KIM TRACEY Through the dimly lit halls of Fulbright Hall, residents were greeted with the sweet song of the gospel. The Inspirational Singers, which often rehearsed in Fulbright Hall, was a contemporary gospel choir and one of several reli¬ gious groups on campus. Freshman Pamela Hayes, a member of the choir, believed the group was a true inspiration. “Our goal is not only to entertain our audience, but it’s also to lift the audience up and let the Lord come into their lives,” Hayes said. “Once people hear our performance it makes a lasting impression.” Hayes said participating in the Inspirational Singers made her more patient and understanding. Another organization committed to evangelism and disci- pleship was the Campus Crusade. Senior Debbie Robertson said this group helped her grow close to Christ. “Campus Crusade provided me a group of friends who be¬ lieved the same beliefs as I do,” Robertson said. “It provided fellowship and personal growth.” As a freshman, Susan Hudson searched for a Christian group that would allow her to grow and help others. “I was looking for a Christian organization to join and Campus Crusade appealed to me because I was being challenged to grow in my walk with Christ,” Hudson said. In its second year, Intervarsity Christian Fellowship, an interdenominational group, allowed members to share the gospel. “It is a neat fellowship,” senior Brenda Johns said. “It is a time to share with friends, my beliefs and faith.” Another group, TNT, met once a week to study the Bible. Junior Anna Wilson believed TNT was an outstanding way to learn about God’s word. “The speakers talk about the biblical answers I always wanted to know, “ Wilson said. “The people are like me, and are all searching together and have lots of fun.. Some students were not involved in Christian organizations, but attended church. Freshman Kari Kennedy often went to church with her sorority sisters. “It makes me feel good to know that I can be close to God wherever I go, and it is a wonderful way to start off the week.” • Religion 19 ALL ABOARD. With 6,600 parking slots and 12,000 registered vehicles, the University’s transit system is suppose to relieve some of the parking problems on campus. Although students complained about the University’s parking situation, officials claimed that every day there were 500 vacant spaces along Razorback Road. STAFF PHOTO BOOK SCANDAL? When students purchase books at the beginning of the semester, the thought of being ripped off doesn’t cross their minds.

I really thought it was safe to cross in front of the bus when it was waiting for the pas¬ sengers to unload and exit. I learned the hard way. In fact, the guy who hit me didn’t even get a ticket because it’s legal to pass on Leverett Street. I guess it’s legal to mow pedestrians down like squir¬ rels as well. The accident rear¬ ranged my whole life. SHELLEY STEELE I think evaluating teachers in the middle of the se¬ mester is necessary if we are pay¬ ing for our education. We have a right to know what we are getting for our money. The University should provide teacher evalution records, so students could look up teachers before they sign up to take their classes. The system now doesn’t help students, there’s no use in the teacher evalutions. MIKE HORTON I don’t know if I am get- ting the education I’m paying for.

As the red carpet was rolled out, students experienced champagne wishes and caviar dreams. BY LIZ VANZANT The red carpet was rolled out- The crowd was lined up. There were lights, cameras and plenty of action. The occasion was ‘‘Hollywood on the Hill,” the theme for Redeye ’90. Redeye provided a chance for each of the 3,000 people attending the premiere event to “be a star.” Kelly Sullens did just that winning $ 150 in the Look-Alike contest dressed as Marilyn Monroe. As search lights spanned the Fayetteville sky, inside the Ar¬ kansas Union students sang songs at the Star Trax recording booth providing silent concerts to the onlookers. People were immortalized on photo buttons and by caricaturist Ray Cook, on his seventh visit to Redeye. Potential writers autographed the Graffiti Wall, as others had Apple computer portraits made by the Computer Store employees. The Bob Hope Classic Miniature Golf Tournament brought out the “pros” to play in its sudden death playoffs and netted three winners who received cash prizes: William B. James, first; Tim Jones, second and James Stacy Cox, third. As the action was going on, students circulated to the checkpoints to get a card stamped for a chance to win a trip to Los Angles for two. Dan Dowdy won a ticket to the real Hollywood. Hypnotist Tom DeLuca brought his unique Imaginism to campus and for the second year had a standing-room only crowd for both of his appearances. Imaginism is a heightened state of awareness where volunteers participate in a blend of fantasy and the power of suggestion. DeLuca had his victims dancing, drawing, acting like children and talking like creatures from unknown planets. “There’s nothing magic to it, it’s all tricks,” DeLuca said. Juggler Mark Nizer dazzled the crowd with tricks using a bowling ball, a blow torch and an electric knife. Students who really lived out the meaning of Redeye got to see Polygram recording artists, the Rainmakers . The four-man band previously known in the Fayetteville area as Steve, Bob and Rich rocked the Ballroom until 2:30 a.m.. Students said they enjoyed being in “Hollywood” as they got to act and play out some of their fantasies. Sophomore Joe Wilson enjoyed the golf the most. “Redeye was a great place to be,” he said. Junior Steven Fletcher seemed pleased with the event, also. “I thought the hypnotist was great and the miniature golf tournament was a great idea too. Redeye was well organized,” Fletcher said. • 22 Student Life Redeye is like an all night party that took up the whole union. They had events that most students wouldn’t have a chance to do. Hollywood on the Hill, let us do lots of things. The spotlight attracted 90 percent of the students.

ALLEN PHOTO 24 Student Life UNDER THE LIGHTS, APPROXIMATELY 51,000 FOOTBALL FANS VISITED CAMPUS TO WATCH THE RAZORBACKS DO A LITTLE BEAR O n home ' coming weekend the entire state of Arkansas was issued a license to bear hunt, as long as it was Baylor Bears in the vicinity of the University ' s football stadium. It was a great honor to represent Arkansas and the University as the 1989 Homecoming Queen. As I walked onto the field the excitment of the fans overwhelmed me. At that moment everyone at the game was watching me. It was a very exciting moment in my life. AMBER INGRAM BY LIZ VANZANT Barbecued bear was on the menu during Homecoming weekend, and not only did the football team get to pig out, but the entire student body did also. University Programs sponsored the Bear-B-Que for students which featured eight to 10 pounds of bear meat (that came from Chicago not Waco) as well as barbecued chicken and hot dogs. Because of the high cost of bear meat, students were only able to get a bite to taste the “delicacy,” but 1,000 students did just that. The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission also became interested and called to asked the source of the bear meat. Since hunting bear is illegal in Arkansas, the university catering service had to show proof of purchase. Students, like freshman Lane Burrow, said they enjoyed the free food. “IPs a real good idea—I’m tired of eatingat the house, and besides that you can’t screw up a hot dog,” Burrow said. Senior Vikki Cox, agreed. “It’s a really good way to boost University spirit.” Another pre-game activity to boost spirit was the pep rally at the Greek Theater. The Booster Club introduced and escorted the Home¬ coming court. Senior Laura Beth Branch, a Phi Mu, said she was honored to represent the school as a member of the Homecoming court. “It was neat being in front of all the Greeks at the pep rally,” Branch said. “I felt special being escorted on stage.” “The band gave people a chance to dance and really have fun,” freshman Kris Ewards said. When the Homecoming festivities moved to Razorback stadium for the first football game played in the stadium at night, hunting bear, at least Baylor Bears, was no longer illegal. With stadium lights trucked in from Iowa, sports fans across the nation were able to watch the game on the ESPN sports network. Arkansas beat Baylor, 19-10, in front of a crowd of more than 51,000. The traditional Homecoming halftime ceremonies, with the theme “The Great Comeback,” featured alumni cheerleaders and the crown¬ ing of queen Amber Ingram. ROTC Cadets from Arnold Air Society and Angel Flight members presented a flag that had flown over Old Main to Gov. Bill Clinton in honor of national POW MIA Week, a week that was set aside to insure that Vietnam prisoners of war and those missing in action would not be forgotten. The flag was later flown over the capitol in Little Rock on Memorial Day. Ingram, a social work major from Ft. Smith, represented Kappa Kappa Gamma. She was joined by court members senior Sharon Ed¬ wards, junior Bernadette Barry, senior Laura Beth Branch and senior Lauren Malpica. Homecoming ’89 proved to be a success as it not only honored history but made a little, too. • Homecoming JUNIOR KATIE FISH CLAIMS THE CROWN BY DAZZLING THE JUDGES, CROWD AT THE MISS UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS F or three hours, 14 contestants competed in a talent, swim suit and evening gown contests hoping to claim the crown. BY TRENT PEETOOM The Union Ballroom was full of spectators almost an hour before the curtain went up. As the excitement grew, 14 contest¬ ants arrived on stage to compete for the title of Miss University of Arkansas 1990. After three hours of competition, including a talent, a swim¬ suit, and an evening gown competition, the title was given to Katie Fish, a member of Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority. Fish, a 21-year-old junior, was no stranger to pageants. In addition to the title of Miss University of Arkansas, she was also crowned Miss Hot Springs in 1989. “I just love doing pageants. I ’ve especially always wanted to go to the Miss Arkansas Pageant, she said. Because of her previous experience, Fish admitted she was never nervous. “I’m really laid back. I just try to have a good time which is easy because I’m so excited about it, she said. Fish said that the thrill of winning and meeting the other women was the best part of the competition. But the pageantry did not stop there. Fish went on to compete for the title of Miss Arkansas 1990. “I’ll really be watching my weight. I’m exercising, and I’ve really been working with my talent coach on a new piano piece.” Fish charmed the audience in the talent competition as she performed “Beethoven’s Fifth” with her own humorous, person¬ able and dramatic interpretations at the piano. Her variations included styles from rock ‘n’ roll to jazz and the blues. In addition to the crown, Fish received $3,073 in scholar¬ ships from the University, the UA Resident Life and Services and the University Bookstore. She also received a $250 gift certificate from “Randy’s of Another World.” The contest attracted 14 contestants. Ann Davis was fourth runner-up, Kim Miller was third, Laura Branch second and Shannon Boy was first runner-up. Boy received $600 in scholarships from the UA Campus Activities Center and the Campus Bookstore. The second through fourth runners-up were awarded Miss UA silver trays. “Just go for it. Don’t let people tell you you can’t do it,” Fish said, giving advice to future contestants. • Lucky me I am tfi a nervo 1 person let mother “■ that for — beca ul the thrill of competition re ' j gets you pumped up.

Many students thought they could park and get back from class in time without any parking violations. D. ALLEN PHOTO BACK TO THE BASICS Parking without the correct parking permit caused many students to get unwanted tickets. The University converted over to a new computerized system allowing ticket writers to do their job more efficiently. The disadvantage of this system is that in cold and rainy weather the writers have to revert back to the old handwritten way of doing tickets. D. ALLEN PHOTO HIGH-TECH TICKETS Ticket Track, the new computerized ticket system made it much easier for writers to issue tickets on campus.

Armed with new high-tech computers and walkie- talkies, these students struck fear into the hearts of parking violators on campus. Were the ticket writers really cruel, insensitive people who only wanted to make people pay fines to the university? Not according to Alan Hughes and Troy Norman, both student ticket writers employed by the University. “My friends agree with me that if there weren t ticket writers, then parking on campus would be worse than what it is,” said Hughes, a freshman. “It’s a necessary evil. Norman, a sophomore, said he did not like writing tickets. “Sometimes I feel sorry for the people, but I have to write the tickets anyway,” he said. A new $42,000 computerized ticket system, Ticket Track, greeted students back for the fall semester. Both Hughes and Norman said the new hand-held computer, which the ticket writers call Tron, was much more efficient than writing out tickets by hand. “You just punch in the amount of the ticket and it is transferred to the computer. It automatically tells you if the person has enough tickets for a tow or not,” said Hughes. In the old system, each car had to be called in to the office if a ticket writer suspected a car had several tickets. This made the towing process difficult “Some cars didn’t get towed when they should have been because the ticket writer didn’t always know if that car has been ticketed by someone else before, Hughes said. Gary Smith, assistant director of parking, said he was pleased with the new system. “Now we can maintain more accurate records. When we have a question, we can just pull up something on the computer rather than go to a paper file. One disadvantage was that in cold, rainy weather the computer went down “Then we go back to the old handwrit¬ ing system,” says Norman. Norman and Hughes both said they enjoyed their jobs. “You have time to think about your problems when you re walking around,” Norman said. Hughes said that he enjoyed meeting new people. One other kick was setting off car alarms. We don t do it on purpose, but it’s kinda funny when it happens, Norman said. • PARKING VIOLATEJR The new $42,000 system allowed writers to print out the tickets for parking violators.

J- appleb BY SHANNON MORLEY K.D. EVANS The walls of Barnhill rocked to the beat of Great White and Tesla during fall semester, but spring proved there was a rockin good country time to be had in Barnhill as fans welcomed George Strait and Patty Loveless. The Nov. 14 rock concert drew a large, diverse crowd, from conservatively-dressed collegians to stiff-haired, made-up teen¬ agers. Whether a preppie or punker, concert goers had plenty to say about the bands, the concert and the music. “Great White is the most energetic band I’ve ever seen,” said Keven Myers, a Springdale resident. Marty Autrey and Mark Wootan, both juniors and Air Force ROTC cadets, appreciated the “down to earth” quality of Tesla. “They have no gimmicks, just good rock,” Wooton said. Great White commanded the attention of the audience with a foot-stomping performance of “Mister Bone,” followed by renditions of “Angel Song” and “Once Bitten Twice Shy” which some fans called “painfully disappointing.” After a short recess, the band returned for a crowd-pleasing encore. Many of the 7,000 fans attending the Feb. 10 George Strait and Patty Loveless also raved about the concert. “George Strait was wonderful and so nice to his fans. He didn’t seem to mind stopping his songs to shake hands and appreciate his fans,” said senior Cheryl Oswalt. Strait played his most popular songs, old and new. Fans of all ages sang along with Strait as the band played hits like “Ocean Front Property” and “All my Ex’s Live in Texas.” Although Loveless had the full attention of the crowd, George Strait and the Ace in the Hole Band brought the fans to their feet. Women and children approached the stage offering gifts and hoping for an autograph or a hand shake from the much-loved country star. Although most fans enjoyed the concerts, not everyone was pleased. One fan was critical of the Great White and Tesla perform¬ ances. “Both bands played only an hour each with barely enough enthusiasm and spontaneity to excite a grandmother,” he said. Senior Jeff Pool was disappointed by the George Strait concert. “In my opinion there was no show because he just sang songs. He didn’t entertain at all,” Pool said. Both concerts were sponsored by University Programs. • DOUBLE VISION Tony Montana of Great White found his twin backstage.

B.AYRE PHOTO Concerts WITH 800-900 WORK STUDY POSITIONS ON CAMPUS AND A VARIETY OF OFF-CAMPUS JOBS, STUDENTS WORKED HARD FOR THE F rom pizza delivery to bartending, students searched for part-time employment to help cover the high costs of going to school. BY LAURA MAYHEW Every weekday at 7 p.m. Shannon Mayhew arrived at Mullins Library to report to her work study job which allowed her to work between her classes and some evenings in order to offset the high cost of attending college. There were approximately 800-900 students like Mayhew working at the University. To apply for work study, a student completed an ACT Family Financial statement. Qualification depended on the family’s assets, the number of dependents in college, the yearly income and the family’s size. If a student qualified for financial aid, then the amount of work study money awarded was figured in relationship to the amount of aid the student already received. The most popular jobs among work study qualifiers were office jobs, usually at Mullins Library. Although there were a large number of students on work study, a greater percentage of collegians worked off-campus. Stephanie Wesson, sophomore, worked at the Montessori school in the afternoons after her classes. Unlike the majority of off-campus students who worked for the money, Wesson worked for the experience. “I’m an education major and I thought having this job would be a great asset to my career,” she said. More college students worked at the stores in the Northwest Arkansas Mall, and at various restaurants in the area. Senior Lissa Rand worked as marketing assistant for the mail’s marketing department. Rand, an advertising public rela¬ tions major, said through her job she gained hands-on-experi- ence. “I’ve earned credit and pay and most importantly experience” Rand said. “By interning, I’ve gained contacts and knowledge of the field which gave the necessary skills to get the job I want.” Having a job on campus or off-campus can benefit students a great deal. Whether working for money or experience, a great deal of knowledge was gained from having a job. • 32 Student Life MUSICTOGO. Hastings employee Kenny King sells a cassette tape to a customer.

For the past 74 years, every Razorback. yearbook editor has included the popular Beauties section in the book. Although still popular in the ' 90s, the contest doesn’t have the significance on campus it enjoyed in its early years. In 1916, the first Razorback Beauties were chosen and awarded full page 5 in the yearbook. After that time, the beauty contest was conducted annu¬ ally. Over the 74 years, the method of judging has changed several times to make the contest a learning experience and more enjoyable for the candidates. In the early years, yearbook purchasers selected the winners. The points were based on number of copies of the yearbook purchased on behalf of a candidate. As boyfriends and sororities rallied support for certain candidates, books were quickly purchased — often as many as dozens and hundreds at time. This method of selecting the beauties, although beneficial to yearbook sales, was eventually discontinued. Under the new system, the winners were chosen from photographs sent to prominent judges. In 1960 the noted television star Bob Cummings selected the beauties in his studio in Hollywood. In 1961 the process changed again as the candidates uz were interviewed by students, faculty, staff and yearbook staff members. These interviews, which continue today, allow the selections to be based not only on beauty, but on leadership and academics as well. The 1989 s$- made the first major change in the contest in 28 years when men were included. Using the contest theme, “A First Time For Everything,” Escof 1 joined the Beauties in the book.

ALLEN PHOTO IGN OF THE TIMES Informational signs dotted the cam¬ pus as part of the Do the Right Thing campaign. The state-wide rally increased awareness on the need for more funding for higher education. D. ALLEN PHOTO TUITION INCREASE LEAVES STUDENTS Hn ISHpn . by KELLY RYAN “What goes up must come down” — at least according to a popular song from the ' 70s. However, Blood, Sweat and Tears wasn ' t singing about tuition, which at most universi- ties goes up while state financial support of higher education goes down. The University of Arkansas was no exception. Student checkbooks felt the impact of an 18 percent tuition increase, implemented in the fall and spread over two semesters bringing in-state tuition for full¬ time, off-campus students to $811 from $735. “I hate to pay more money, but I’d hate to see the standards drop too,” said sophomore Maya Shastri. Although tuition went up, enrollment didn’t go down. In fact, enrollment at the university was up by 280 students bringing the total to 14,281. ‘The increase in enrollment is a clear indication of how im¬ portant people in Arkansas think education is,” said Chancellor Dan Ferritor. There were other indications that Arkansans needed to take a serious look at education and how to improve it. Arkansas ranked 49th in the nation in the number of residents earning a college degree. Also, 25 percent of Arkansans were functionally illiterate and 35 percent of the freshmen entering college had to take remedial courses. These facts — combined with the need for building renovations and salary increases seemed to indicate that a tuition increase was necessary. Steven Hinds, ASG treas¬ urer, explained the increase was much needed for simply keeping the university operating. Finding more private donors for funding education was one option that Hinds said would be an important factor in the future. One alternative to another tuition increase was a plan ASC supported — the “Do the Right Thing” campaign. This state¬ wide rally, held in October, was created to push for more state funding for higher education to be put on the legislative agenda for the 1991 session. Despite the student effort, Gov. Bill Clinton didn’t includ ' the proposal on the agenda. Eric Munson, ASG Presi¬ dent, explained that the university needed a tuition policy that didn’t create a financial barrier. ‘Tuition goes up every year because state support is going down, but at the same time more and more facilities, equipment and programs are being cut,” he concluded. • Academics ULLETPROOF?

And on campus. The dinosaur craze spread across the nation including the University with an exhibit, “Dinosaur Days” on display from September to November. The exhibit featured eight mechani¬ cal pieces of art. and attracted approximiately 33,170 curiosity seekers. “Dino Days started the fall semester breaking attendance records during its nine-week period,” said Joni Taylor, attendance keeper. The massive replicas were the artist’s interpretation of how the fossils of real dinosaurs would look with muscles and skin. Of the eight dinosaurs, only two, the baby Apatosaurus and Dimetrodon were full scale models. The others were made on a half-scale model. One of the dinosaurs was an exhibit with the skin removed to show the mechanical skeleton. This exhibit featured a control board in which people could control the dinosaur’s movements with joysticks. The mechanical dinosaurs were complex structures. The roaring and hissing sound effects were provided by a digital sound system synchronized with the jaw movements. The aluminum and steel skeletons included a system of air cylinders controlled by a computer and powered by an air compressor. The skin was made of polyurethane and was covered with a special dyed resin. The total effect was a group of life like, sometimes scary dinosaurs. Of the several types of ancient lizards represented, the Tyrannosaurus, or “tyrant lizard,” was popular among the younger viewers. It was the largest and last of the giant carnivorous dinosaurs and measured up to 50 feet long, 18 feet tall and weighed about seven tons. The dinosaurs were created by Dinamation International Corporation. This company manufactured robotic dinosaurs in Orange County, Calif, to send to museums around the world. The museum became aware of the company when Johnnie Gentry, director of the museum, met the founder and president of the corporation, Chris Mays, a few years ago. The museum first exhibited the dinosaurs in 1986 for its grand opening of the building.

Learning about the Univer¬ sity and registering for classes were just two of the activities freshman Jennifer Robbins remembered about her orienta¬ tion. “It made me ready to come to school and move in my dorm room,” Robbins said. “I was so excited because my schedule went into the computer the first time, and I was out of there in about ten minutes.” As the freshmen settled into their new dorms and found their classes, they were also faced with learning the chants and cheers needed to be a good fan, so the Freshman Involvement Committee sponsored a freshman pep rally on Sept. 7. “It was one of the best pep rallies we had because we got to learn the cheers, be with our peers, and get involved,” said Christy Rateliff. “I was excited because it was my first college pep rally at the University, and it was a lot of fun.” TRACEY In addition to sponsoring the pep rally, the FIC coordinated other activities to make new¬ comers feel welcome. “FIC made school better for me because right off the bat I met lots of new friends,” fresh¬ man Casey Kennedy said. “I knew what was up on campus and felt like I was a part of the school.” The FIC sponsored a talent show, a lock-in, and a scavenger hunt to enable freshman to take part in extracurricular activities. “We went all over campus during our scavenger hunt,” Kennedy said. “I met lots of people and had a good time seeing what was on the hill.” The Greek community also offered activities for the fresh¬ man. Each year the Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity hosts a pledge queen pageant for freshman sorority pledges. Freshman Sara Abington was crowned pledge queen. “I got to meet a lot of other girls,” Abington said. “Being in the pageant made me feel more a part of the college. I was so excited and honored to have won.” Abington added that the pageant gave her a chance to participate in something other than studying. “I got to do something that I really en¬ joyed.” ram 54 Academics IDE AND SEEK In an attempt to get more freshmen involved on campus, the FIC spon¬ sored a scavenger hunt.

University Theatre’s fall line¬ up of plays began with a wacky comedy, “The Female Odd Couple,” about two friends who, through one’s divorce, changed each other’s lives. A sex-change operation turned Neil Simon’s ‘The Odd Couple,” a contem¬ porary comedy classic, into a mix of slap stick and one liners. Similar to the original, “The Odd Couple” play, a group of friends gathered for an evening of Trivial Pursuit in the dishev¬ eled home of Olive Madison when the immaculate Florence Ungar arrives, distraught from the breakup of her marriage. Olive and Florence decide to become roommates. The laughter was non-stop as the two moved in together and began a brief trip through hell, ending in a friendly “divorce” between them. “The Female Odd Couple” was directed by Kent Brown of the drama department and the two leading roles were played by Sally Shedd, as Olive, and Leslie Wells, as Florence. In the second production of the season, the University Theatre presented ‘King Lear.” In 1605 William Shakespeare took the legend of Lear, a king in Britain before the Roman conquest, and crafted a dramatic masterpiece. Three hundred eighty-four years later, the University Theatre presented its second production, “King Lear,” about a timeless tale of a man’s self-discovery. The Shakespeare classic began with Lear intending to divide his kingdom among his three daughters, giving the larger portion to his favorite, Cordelia. In the ceremony in which his daughters compete in asserting their love, Goneril and Regan, flatter Lear outrageously while Cordelia, the youngest, refuses to compete. Embarrassed, Lear loses his temper and casts her off, dividing the kingdom between Goneril and Regan. Lear soon found that Goneril and Regan, the daughters who freely professed their love, were monsters of ingratitude. Suffering and self-discovery changed Lear from an auto¬ cratic, unperceptive monarch to a humane and loving father. The production of “King Lear” featured drama faculty member Roger Gross in the leading role. Other cast mem¬ bers included Patricia Ralph as Goneril, Amy Clark as Regan and Melanie McClain as Cordelia.

ROBERTSON PHOTO Fall Plays TWO SUCCESSFUL SPRING ■ ( i le-r BY VICKI WARD I The spring semester offered a potpourri of plays for audiences at the University. January’s production of ‘The Voice of the Prairie” offered something unusual to the audience — the multiple roles the main characters played. John Gloria played five char- acters whose dispositions ranged from a shy, sensitive storyteller to a lost soul, an irate broken¬ hearted drunken father, an upset vendor and an old, backwoods dirt farmer. He moved with ease from character to character. Theatre goers said Mark Prime moved between his four characters so well it was hard to tell the same person was playing a 15-year-old boy, a New York Yankee fast-buck artist, a Methodist minister and a Kansas City jailer. This unusual play enter¬ tained the audience by tracing the life of one man and how the radio made an impact on his life. Through tragedy and hardship, he finally found his love, a blind, runaway girl, played by Dana Smith. The second play was on a more serious note. Set in the late ’60s, “No Place To Be Somebody” portrayed every type of person persecuted in Amer¬ ica: women, blacks, Italians, hippies, employees and others. The play exposed questions about self-knowledge, sexism and racism which forced the audience to ponder the issues. This 1969 drama examined the complexities of living and the multiple levels of identity that we all face: black or white, male or female and human. Everyone in the audience could see themselves in each character and sympathize with the character’s feelings. Even though the flyers advertising the production announced it would contain offensive language, several people were offended by the open language and honest portrayal of feelings and left the play early. The message reminded audience members of their own fears and taught them to learn from past mistakes. Those attending the play said the excellent acting of the cast members provided a play that was very thought-provoking, but on the other hand was a source of intense entertainment. • Serious message The University Theatre presented No Place To Be Somebody,’ a play that provoked the thoughts of the audience, but also entertained.

YARBROUGH PHOTO PROMINENT SPEAKERS TAKE A BY KELLY RYAN An expert on Saturday Night Live, the director of the NAACP and the president of NOW were among the promi- nent speakers that informed and entertained students. With four Emmy Awards and actors who have become huge stars, “Saturday Night Live” has experienced some tremendous changes since its first broadcast in the early ’70s, according to Jeff Weingrad, co-author of the book “Saturday Night: A Backstage History of Saturday Night Live”. In September, Weingrad spoke to an audience of 400 in the Arkansas Union. He gave a narrative and showed clips of past SNL’S which were com¬ prised of such famous character scenes as The Coneheads, Rosanne Rosanna Danna, Mr. Bill and Two Wild and Crazy Guys. Dr. Benjamin Hooks, director of the National Association for the Advance¬ ment of Colored People, visited during Cultural Awareness Month in February and told the crowd of 500 that there was much left to be done about discrimination. “This country is still instilled with racism, Hooks said. “And there are dangerous days ahead of us. “The NAACP has been the most visible part of the protest, then and now,” he said.Tt perseveres and endures. “They wouldn’t have had black people at the U of A 40 years ago,” Hooks said. And for blacks to be ashamed to admit that is spitting in the face of all black and white heroes who gave their lives for civil rights.” Another speaker, feminist Betty Friedan, explained that the second stage of the women’s revolution is coming up. It will differ from the first stage in that it won’t be men versus women, she told an audience of 500 in March. ‘The women’s movement isn’t finished,” Friedan said. “The second stage of the movement will involve the restructuring of the work place and the home.” Friedan, who is the author of the book, “The Feminine Mystique” and former president of the National Organization for Women, said that “national standards” are needed to change the formats of both work and home. “There is an adventure ahead — a movement from true equality to an affirmation to the ways in which we (men and women) are similar and differ¬ ent,” she said. • Academics HOWDOWN Questions about Sheffield Nelson s involvement in the Arkla-Arkoma deal and Tommy Robinson ' s farming debt were among the hotly discussed topics during a statewide debate be¬ tween the Republican gubernatorial candidates April 16 in the Union Ballroom.

R. ROBINSON PHOTO Academics BOARD OF TRUSTEES NAME w r bylizvanzant It started off the year with a bang. President Ray Thornton announced during the first week of school that he was resigning effective Sept. 30, only weeks after the beginning of the school year. At the time, Thornton was reluctant to announce future plans, but it wasn’t long before he scheduled another press conference to publicly an¬ nounce that he would be running for a Second District Congressional seat, held by Tommy Robinson, who was running for governor. During his press conference at the University, Thornton stated that he was not retiring and that he was leaving the University in capable hands. In a letter to the Board of Trustees, Thornton said he was departing with “a sense of pride in the accomplishments of the University.” Thornton was appointed president of the UA campuses in January, 1984. Prior to that he served as president of Arkansas State University in Jonesboro for three years, served a six-year stint in the House of Representatives and was state attorney general for two years. Gary Chamberlin, executive vice president and provost of the UA system, became interim president while the Board of Trustees employed Hiedrick and Struggles, a search firm from Dallas, at a cost of more than $25,000 to help locate candi¬ dates for the presidental post. In addition, students Eric Munson and Tjuana Byrd were chosen to be on the selection committee to represent the student body. “We are determined to do our best to find that person who can lead us,” said Sykes Harris, board chairman, during the selection process. After about 30 applicants and loads of rejections, Dr. B. Alan Sugg, 51, a native of Arkansas and an alumnus of the Fayetteville campus, was selected ending a five-month search for a Thornton successor. Sugg’s education credentials included two degrees from the UA: a bachelor’s in business and finance and a master’s in higher education administration. He received a doctorate in higher education administration from the University of Oklahoma in 1971. Sugg served as president of Corpus Christi State University from 1977 to 1990. Sugg assumed the position June 1 heading all five cam¬ puses, comprised of 31324 students, 9,000 employees and a $500 million budget. • DAN FERRITOR Chancellor LYLEGOHN Vice Chancellor Student Services DON PEDERSON Vice Chancellor Academic Affairs GERALD BOMOTTI Vice Chancellor Finance Admin.

ALLEN PHOTO MM ip 1 8 mm BSggj wmm SMS INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS l awAtiea BY SHANNON MORLEY The mystery and adventure of far away places fascinates people from all walks of life. But for those living in Arkansas, Fayetteville hardly seemed a place of romantic intrigue. However, hundreds of students from all over the world came to discover and explore the far away world of Arkansas. Approximately 517 interna- tional students were enrolled in the University’s six colleges with the graduate students outnumbering the undergradu¬ ates. Malaysia was represented by the most students, with the People’s Republic of China, India, Pakistan and Singapore following. Why did these students select the University of Arkansas? “It was the cheapest school available to foreign students,” said Nih ad Jamalian Majid, a freshman computer science engineering student from Bangladesh. Several other students also said low cost was a major factor. The majority of newcomers said they were surprised at the relatively small size of Fayettev¬ ille. Freshman Yeh Chin Chang, from Singapore, called the area “deserted.” Adapting to a new country wasn’t always easy for the students. “At first I didn’t like it here. It was so different. But now I’ve adapted,” he said. Being far from home was never easy. To minimize the effects of homesickness, all international students were invited to join the International Club, as well as individual groups representing various countries, such as the Friends of India. Lawrence Chuah, a senior from Malaysia has been a member of the International Club since he came to the university four years ago. He said that although the club was a way to create a social circle, that wasn’t the group’s primary goal. ‘The objectives of the International Club are to promote international aware¬ ness among the community and to show foreign students the American wa of life.” Despite barriers, such as the language and cultural differ¬ ences, which provided problems for many, the population of international students contin¬ ued to grow and excel. As these international vistotf became acquainted with the United States, Americans, were able to gain valuable insights into foreign cultures and customs.

And, the alumni association moved into the ’90s by looking into the past. Even though the association was founded in 1878, 112 years ago, the members had a lot more to do than reminisce. Through¬ out the year the Alumni Association was the center of constant activity, sponsoring several activities in support of the University. While other organizations prepared for the big Homecom¬ ing weekend, Mike Macechko, alumni director, and the Alumni Association coordi¬ nated “The Great Comeback.” “Every group has an activity,” said Macechko, who coordi¬ nated the activities during Homecoming for the associa¬ tion. In a year of firsts, the Alumni Association was making history. The Homecoming weekend began with the presentation of Citations for Distinguished Alumni, the first annual three- mile run, and the first game in campus history to be played under lights. On Nov. 9, three notable alumni were honored at an awards dinner. Charlie Jones, a sportscaster with the NBC television network; Charles Morgan, chairman and chief executive officer of Acxiom Corp. and Davis B. Richardson, president of Shell Chemical Co., received a Certificate of Distinguished Alumnus from the association. The next day the three-mile alumni “Fun Run” took place, starting at the Alumni Center. Homecoming was certainly not the only activity the members of the Alumni Association were involved in. activities sponsored by the Alumni Association took place every day — the recruitment of young alumni. Macechko said most seniors didn’t realize they received a complimentary one- year membership after graduat¬ ing. Whether cheering on the Hogs or supporting the Univer¬ sity, the Alumni Association informed members and students about their alma mater. • VlSTING CAMPUS Returning for the Homecoming activities, Tom and Sylvia Boyer, Parents of the Year and life mem¬ bers of Alumni Association, talk with Dwayne Cromwell, Commu¬ nication Coordinator for Univer¬ sity Relations, at the Alumni recep¬ tion.

After receiving advice and words of wisdom from the officials present at the 116th commencement, the graduates were ready to hit the world. Or, at least the University thought so. Fay Jones, professor emeritus from the College of Architec¬ ture, spoke at the general commencement. Jones urged graduates to hold onto their values and to work hard at all their professional tasks, no matter how small some may seem. “No matter how small your problem might be, give them your best efforts,” Jones told the graduates. ‘That effort will be an act of caring. Caring about Reflections Finished with her degree, Onvia Whitaker listens to Faye Jones, general commencement speaker, on May 12 in Barnhill Arena. J. VER HOEVEN PHOTO Courtesy of the Morning News yourself and about others is what your education is all about.” Jones also reminded the audience that disappointment and adversity are parts of life. “Do no let setbacks or failures deter an adventuresome spirit,” he said. “Just keep giving it your best shot. And whether you succeed or fail, your self¬ esteem will remain intact. That is what should concern you most.” Also during the ceremony, Charles King of Springdale addressed the crowd, represent¬ ing the seven top-ranked bachelor’s degree candidates. King, the recipient of a number of scholastic awards and honors, told the crowd that despite a rapidly changing world, some fundamental and dangerous problems still remain. “Churchill’s Iron Curtain is lifting,” King said. “New space technology may allow us to peer back in time to the very infancy of the universe. But in another sense, the world remains tragically the same.” Problems of race and prejudice sometimes appear to be the only constants on the planet, King said. “It is time then for a new kind of leader,” he said. “A leader who, in Fulbright’s words m PLEASE TURN THE PAGE JSTINGUISHED Fay Jones, an internationally known architect and recipient of several archi¬ tecture awards including the prestig¬ ious American Institute of Architec¬ ture ' s Gold Medal, was the general commencement speaker.

VER HOEVEN PHOTO Courtesy of the Morning News Graduation w CONTINUED is committed to human values, world peace and the improve¬ ment of the human condition. A leader who knows well the meaning of the university’s motto ... Truth leads to progress.’” Board of Trustees Chairman Jim Blair also addressed the general commencement. Blair promised faculty members that the board would work to make teaching in the university system “more than just a labor of love.” Blair said he was “embar¬ rassed and chagrined” by the continuing erosion of the system’s buying power and financial situation. “We all know that we can never pay the faculty what it deserves,” he said. “But the board is very concerned about providing adequate compensation for the faculty.” When the last graduate passed across the stage the general commencement was over and the students went their separate ways, only to meet once more at their individual college commencement. The usual traits of reserved and low voices that mark college commencements was shaken slightly in the Fulbright College of Arts and Sciences, as Rep. David Matthews stepped up to the podium. Matthews told graduates the tradition of public education has held the nation together and built it. Offering some of the oratory which made him a force in the legislature, Matthews loudly declared, “There’s one tradition in this state we can do withou t and that’s the tradition that Arkansas is always last. “You, the graduate, have joined a select group of Arkan¬ sans. You are the minority with a college degree.” he said. Sen. Dale Bumpers’ addressed the College of Agriculture and Home Economics in a style intending not to be “a downer” or even “preachy.” Instead, he explained, his speech was intended to prepare the 1990 graduates for a world that he de¬ scribed as “not perfect.” A staunch advocate of the environment, Bumpers warned about the effects of clearing thousands of acres of tropical rain forest in South America. He also pointed out the popula¬ tion of the planet far exceeds what it is able to sustain successfully. “So is agriculture important to our future?” Bumpers asked rhetorically. “Good Lord, we have millions of mouths to feed. “Leave the world a better place t han when you came into it and remember to seek the truth and think highly of yourself,” Bumpers concluded. “For God’s sake, do your duty.” 70 Academics ROM THE TOP Chancellor Dan Ferritor congratu- lates one of the approximately 1,100 graduates on May 12 during ceremo- nies in Barnhill Arena.

And just like the previous year, the season ended with a defeat in Dallas. Unlike the previous year, Hatfield with the assistance of new offensive coordinator Jack Crowe, dumped the Wishbone offense and switched to the I-formation to take advantage of a talented stable of running backs. The Tulsa Hurricanes were the first victims of the revamped offense as Arkansas rolled up 463 yards of total offense behind an array of misdirections, reverses and passes in a 26-7 victory at Fayetteville.

After six successful and pressure-filled seasons, Razorback head football coach Ken Hatfield resigned on Jan. 22, to become the head man at Clemson University in South Carolina. Hatfield entered a program at Clemson which was faced with NCAA sanctions because of rules infractions under former Tiger head coach Danny Ford, who resigned under pressure the week before Hatfield left Arkansas. Upon his introduction at Clemson, Hatfield was not very specific concerning his departure. “Sandy and I both felt at this time that this was the right thing to do, to be a part of the continued success of Clemson’s fine tradition and heritage,” Hatfield said. As a former Razorback football hero, Hatfield was handpicked from the Air Force to lead the Hogs in 1983 when Lou Holtz resigned. He inherited Arkansas’ first non- bowl team in seven seasons and immediately took the Hogs to a 7-4T record and a bid to the Liberty Bowl. In the next five years, he led his teams to 48 victories. In 1988, the Razorbacks became the first team in five years to go undefeated in SWC play and Hatfield was named the conference Coach of the Year. However, even with his continued success, Hatfield was often criticized for his conservative offensive scheme. Three successive home losses to the Texas Long¬ horns only added fuel to the fans’ fire. His one-time feud with athletic director Frank Broyles had reportedly been resolved last spring; however, fans speculated the rocky Broyles-Hatfield relationship contrib¬ uted to Hatfield’s decision to take the Clemson job. • Matt Stewman MEET THE PRESS.

Tve always thought that Lou Holtz (now at Notre Dame) was the number one signal-caller in the college game today. I now tell you, in my opinion, that our new coach is his equal.” Crowe, who served as of¬ fensive coordinator during the 1989 season, was thefirstcoach Broyles hired without head coaching experience. Ironically, Crowe was of¬ fensive coordinator at Clemson before coming to Arkansas. Clemson hired Hatfield as head coach creating the Razorback opening. “The time I’ve spent here in this one year has brought a lot of things together for me,” Crowe said. Tve always known that 1 could be a head coach. I think the formula here works. It’s worked with a lot of differ¬ ent personal i ties and faces, and it works because of the people of Arkansas. “I came here because of two things really. Ken Hatfield was number one—I’ve always said that—but the tradition of the University of Arkansas is syn¬ onymous with great coaching.” Crowe is credited with bringing the “I” formation of¬ fense back to Arkansas during the season. That offense helped break the school record for yardage during the season. • Scott Stewart FANS ENJOY THE FIRST GAME PLAYED UNDER THE LIGHTS D. ALLEN PHOTO WHEN ESPN said let there would be light... there was. Saturday, Nov. 11,1989 will go down in history as the first night game ever to be played at Razorback Stadium. Those at the game were not the only ones who enjoyed the late afternoon starting time. The real cheers were led by local merchants who claimed that the night game brought greatly increased revenue to Fayetteville. “The people that didn’t want to drive down the hill and get home at all hours, just spent the weekend in Fayette v- ilie,” said senior Trevi tt Black- bum. The weekend is not all that the fans spent. Fayetteville’s extra weekend visitors also spent thousands of dollars on hotel rooms, meals and souvenirs during their overnight stay in Fayetteville. The success of the night game soon brought about the decision to install permanent lights in Razorback Stadium. • P.T.

The football team, playing in front of a Homecoming crowd, won a hard-fought game against the Baylor Bears, 19-10. The Hogs borrowed a page from last year’s strategy by calling on kicker Todd Wright for four field goals — three in the second half that provided the margin of difference. “Baylor was real physical,” quarterback Quinn Grovey said. “I’m definitely going to be feeling it tomorrow morning.” Grovey took every snap while directing an offense that kept the Bear defense on the field for 42 minutes. “They were tired,” Grovey said. “But they were still coming. They were tough on de¬ fense. I give them all the credit in the world. They caused problems for us.” That worked the other way, too. The Hogs offense gave the Bears more than enough to handle. Senior James Rouse, winner of the Hall award that goes to the outstanding senior in the Homecoming game, continued his string of 100-yard performances. He logged 28 carries for 133 yards — his third straight 100-plus game — and scored his 38th career touchdown, tying him with Doak Walker on the Southwest Conference all- time list. Rouse’s longest run was for 20-yards on a workmanlike day, but he had a 34-yarder nullified by a holding penalty. It was our best game of the year so far, outsidelinebackerKenBensonsaid. We knew that we were one step away from the Cotton Bowl.. Plus is was Homecoming and our sen¬ iors ' last game in Fayetteville. We had a lot of things to play for. FACE TO FACE. Ready to prevent Baylor from making a yardage gain, defensive tackle Michael Shepherd (98) and the Arkansas line prepare for action. It was physical, Shephard said. This was not a typical Baylor game. To play Baylor you have to stop the run first. We did that early, then it was just fun going after the passer. T. EWART PHOTO 78 Sports RERUN SEASON J. MOORE PHOTO LONGHORNS OVERPOWER RAZORBACKS THE crowd was nervous. Four minutes remained on the clock. Arkansas had the ball on a first-down at the 20- yard line. And, the Razorbacks were down by four points. Only 80 yards stood be¬ tween the Razorbacks and a victory. It was time to put to restall those painful memories of past games against the hated Texas Longhorns. It was time for a storybook ending. Well, Arkansas doesn’t get miracles against Texas. And, in this game, Texas didn’t need any miracles. Al¬ though the Longhorns gave up one first down in the last series, they took over four plays later following an Arkansas fourth- down incompletion. With the final score read¬ ing 24-20, approximately 53,300 Razorback fans sat in stunned silence. Texas had once again man¬ aged to slip out of Fayetteville with a victory, their 53rd in 71 contests. “I’m always disappointed to lose to Texas,” said Phillip Hensley, a Razorback fan from Mena. “I’d rather lose the Cotton Bowl than lose to Texas,” he said. Longhorn quarterback Pe¬ ter Gardere, a freshman, engL neered 10- and 14-play marches against a wind that blew at 14 mph with gusts up to 19. “In a ball game like this, we fel 11 ike w i th a young fresh man quarterback we could use the wind and keep ' em backed up early and take over in good field position,” said Razorback Coach Ken Hatfield. “Maybe we could make something happen. It turned out they drove 80 yards both times, and we didn’t get anything out of it.” “You always feel lucky to get out of here with your skin,” Texas coach David McWih liams said. “I thought everyone was dead and there was no emo¬ tion,” said James Smith from Benton. “Tire fans were that way and the team played that way. They woke up too late. But I’m still a Razorback and I think we have a good chance to win the rest of our games.” • RESTRICTION UPSETS CAMPUS CAMPERS THE happy campers weren’t happy any- more. A new Uni versify policy prevented the sports fans from camping at their favorite spot. “I don’t see why the university won’t let us park there because they only have about three or four games up here a season, one Razorback camper said. “So what if (the RVs) tear up the yard. There’s plenty of time for the grass to get pretty again, she said. “As for our lot (lot 8), all we need is some electricity. The RVers are willing to pay for the power,” she added. One camping couple, Jim and Katie Campbell said that one of the highlights to their road trips is that they get to see people they haven’t seen “It’s fun to see familiar faces and to socialize with them again,” Katie Campbell said. “I’m glad to be a Razorbacker, and yes, we do get up and call those Hogs!” • Football - Homecoming 79 RERUN SEASON J. MOORE PHOTO onus Tr RAZORBACK-MANIA INVADES DALLAS PIGGIES piggies, every ' where. Nearly everyone at the Cotton Bowl from Arkansas was dressed in Razorback red. Chants of “woooooooo, pig sooey!” split the air at regular intervals. And Joe Dirks was feeling safe and secure with his plastic hog’s head fitted firmly on his head. There was swine fever among the multitudes, and it was catching. Some favored the hog baseball caps; others donned the ever-popular por- cine visor. There were also snap-on snouts, sweat shirts, sweat pants and t-shirts. But only the hardiest of souls from the Land of Opportunity went all the way with the red plastic hog’s head. Fans paid $ 17 for the crazy, red hat. But for Tennessee fans, the plastic hog’s head was evidence that their neighbors from across the Mississippi lacked enough bricks to make a load. “It’s something fun to do,” said Sheila Spurlock, a fan. She left her hat at home in Jessiev- ille and had to buy one before the game. “You’ve got to be a sure- enough hog fan to wear one,” said her friend, David Bond. No hog graced the top of Bond’s head, however. “I think they’re one of the ugliest son of a guns I’ve ever seen,” he said. • GROVEY: ' SICK MENTALLY, PHYSICALLY ' RAZORBACK quarter¬ back Quinn Grovey was sick during the Mobil Cotton Bowl, and after his team was defeated 27-31 he felt even worst. Grovey suffered from flu symptoms; cough, runny nose and a 102-degree temperature, but said only his team’s loss to Tennessee made him sick. “I was sick the night before the game. I was tired in pre¬ game. I didn’t get much good sleep last night. Our fans are great. They are super. We let them down, and by turning the ball over, we let ourselves down,” Grovey told the media after the loss. Grovey said he refused to take any medication because “I am afraid of pills.” During the game, trainers gave him J. MOORE PHOTO fruit juices and other fluids. Although sick, Grovey’s 12 of 22 passing for 207 yards and a touchdown led the Razor- backs to 568 yards total of¬ fense. The Razorbacks were 22-2 in games started by the 5-10, 180-pound, junior quarterback. Grovey passed for 1,149 yards, completing 72 of 131 attempts and was the third-leading rusher with 565 yards. He also led the team with eight rush¬ ing touchdowns. Grovey fin¬ ished second to Heisman Tro¬ phy winner Andre Ware of Houston as the All-Southwest Conference quarterback. “For him to come out and perform the way he did showed what kind of competitor he is,” said offensive coordinator Jack Crowe. But even with kind words from the coaches and fans, Grovey still was extremely disappointed. “I’ve been waiting for this game a whole year. I’m sick, physically and mentally,” Grovey said. • 80 Sports t Fumbled H___ Z 1 RAZORBACK TURNOVERS GIVE TENNESSEE VOLS A COTTON BOWL VICTORY OUTSIDE the Cotton Bowl, an Ar¬ kansas fan forlornly held a stuffed boar head in his hands. Inside, his Razorbacks were giving Tennessee a victory. The eight-ranked Volunteers gladly accepted taking advantage of three turn¬ overs to beat the 10th-ranked Razorbacks, 31-27. Arkansas cost itself a chance for a commanding lead with two turnovers inside Tennessee’s 10-yard line, and the Vols took charge on big plays — setting school bowl records with an 84-yard scoring pass and a 78-yard touchdown run by Chuck Webb. And a fourth-quarter rally that came up short left the Razorbacks with their fourth consecutive bowl loss and second consecu¬ tive Cotton Bowl defeat before a sellout crowd of 74,358 on a cool, sunny New Year’s Day in Dallas. “It’s frustrating, frustrating as hell,” coach Ken Hatfield said. “Especially when we hadn’t given up big plays or turned the ball over all year.” The Razorbacks’ offense, which had only four first downs in a 3-17 loss to UCLA in last year’s Cotton Bowl, succeeded with a Cotton Bowl-record 31 first downs against the Vols and by outgaining Tennessee, 568 yards to 470. But three fumbles and an interception — all in Vols territory — marred Arkansas’ effort. “That really broke our backs,” running back James Rouse said. “It was hard for us to get over that.” Fellow running back Barry Foster agreed. “I think we would have won the game without the turnovers,” he said. Quarterback Quinn Grovey, who suffered from the flu, was disappointed. “I’ve been waiting for this game a whole year,” Grovey said. “I’m sick, physically and mentally.” ON A ROLL. Safety Patrick Williams makes a slight gain of five-yards before being tackled by a Tennessee player in the second quarter.

Mary Howard, the University’s all-time leading scorer, didn’t record as many points during the season because of a position switch from forward to midfield, a move niade by Ludwig to strengthen a weak Position. “Scoring is the ultimate goal, but Mary’s done a lot for us in the midfield. Since she’s moved there, that has helped us win,” Ludwig said. SPORTS INFO. PHOTO WHEN the soccer season opened, second-year coach Kathy Ludwig set a goal for her team. “We want to be a .500 ball club this year, and we will be able to do that,” Ludwig said before the season opener. Sixteen matches later, the Lady Razorbacks were exactly .500 with a 6-6-2 season record heading into the final two games of the season. Ar¬ kansas hosted Texas Christian on Nov. 4 for a 0-2 loss, then closed the year with a 4-0 win against Creighton on Nov. 5. The team entered the South Regional ranking for the first time. Arkansas was tied with Davidson at 9th in the coaches’ poll. “The team was excited,” Ludwig said. “They were ready to end the year with wins.” Last year, Ludwig took over the young program and the team struggled to a 3-10-2 finish. Arkan¬ sas doubled last year’s wins. In 1988, the Lady Razorbacks were shut out eight times and held only one opponent scoreless. This season, Arkansas was shut out in only five matches, one of which was a 0-0 overtime tie against Texas A M. The Lady Razorbacks also held five opponents, Nebraska, Vanderbilt, Missouri-Rolla, Tulsa and Creighton, scoreless —just one shy of the Arkansas record of six in a season. Freshman Ruthie Miller lead the scoring throughout the season with seven points. Sophomore Kelley Mackey was next with five. After a disappointing road trip to College of the Southwest, 2-1, and a 0-0 tie against Texas A M, the Lady Razorbacks were looking to beat the TCU Horned Frogs. “They are a big challenge for us just like last year,” Ludwig said. “Our team would have really liked to make up for last year’s overtime loss.” Unfortunately, the Razorback’s dream did not come true — the Lady Horned Frogs won 0-2. In the next game, a 4-0 victory over Creighton, sophomore Carrie Cox lead the way in scoring, fol¬ lowed by Miller, Mackey and Dana Dubley. In March, the University’s lengthy search for a full-time coach ended with the hiring of Marcia McDermott, the former University of Maryland head coach. “We are extremely pleased that a coach of the national calibre of McDermott is coming to the Uni¬ versity,” athletic director Bev Rouse said. “She is exactly the type of person we want to continue the improvement of the program.” • BY DOUGLAS SCOTT Soccer Introduction ENIORITY LIVINGSTON, THE LONE SENIOR, INSPIRES HER FELLOW TEAMMATES LEADERSHIP was in demand on the youthful women’s soccer team. And, by virtue of her senior status, Tina Livingston was called on to fill the bill. Livingston completed her career as the Lady Razorbacks whipped Creighton, 4-0, to finish 7-7-1. And, although she has no had a huge impact statistically, coach Kathy Ludwig said her loss will undoubtedly be felt. As the lone senior on the roster, she pro¬ vided a stablizing element to balance the team’s youthful enthusiasm. After a two-year stint at Oklahoma State, Livingston decided a change of scenery was in order. So, in the fall of 1986, she traded in her chaps and spurs for a Hog hat and moved to her father’s alma mater. Arkanasas coach Ludwig welcomed her, and relished the idea of acquiring such an experienced, talented player. But, things did not go as smoothly as all had hoped. Livingston’s freshman year was marred by a knee injury, which sidelined her, and eventually allowed her a season of eligibility. Last year, she came back to play in all 15 games, but this season, she was struck by bad luck once again. During the first few weeks of the year, she was slowed by a series of illnesses, but later bounced back to make a valuable contribu¬ tion to the team’s success. “Livingston is kind of a quiet leader,” Ludwig said. “She is so dedicated to the sport, and very intense. Her work ethic tends to rub off on people. Even though she has had a rough year, she is really hard to keep out of the lineup.” Livingston said, “I just try to be there for all my teammates. I believe that they know that if they ever need anything, on or off the field, that I’m there for them. “Seeing how much soccer has grown here, gives me great personal satisfaction, just knowing that I’ve been a part of it,” Living¬ ston concluded. TEAMWORK. . • JonRenfroe Razorback Tina Livingston positions herself to move the ball down the field with the assis¬ tance of Kim Mackey during the Oct. 18 match against Tulsa. Arkansas won, 1-0, with Mackey making the only point. M. HORTON PHOTO 84 Sports GOAL MAKERS COX LEADS TEAM ON DEFENSE THE Arkansas women’s soccer program is unique be- cause it is so young. Since the program is only four years old, the leaders of the team are also young. One of those young leaders was sophomore defen¬ sive standout Carrie Cox. Cox came to Arkansas last year and received a “trial by fire,” as she was thrust into the starting line-up as the sweeper, one of the most difficult posi¬ tions on the field. Cox not only survived the experience, she performed brilliantly, earn¬ ing the respect of opponents, her coach and her peers. In fact, following the sea¬ son, she was voted co-captain, along with the team’s premier scorer, Mary Howard. It was the highest praise her team¬ mates could have given her. “That was a real honor,” Cox said. “I felt that last year, everybody contributed a lot. And with how hard our year was, with the program build¬ ing and everything, that was a real complement. I helped a lot with leadership, but I was W. SPORTS INFO. PHOTO real surprised. It was a big honor.” Yet, Cox is no stranger to the role of honoree. In high school, she was the captain of a regional champion and na¬ tional semi-finalist club team, and she helped guide San Antonio’s James Madison High School Mavericks to the re¬ gional semi-finals and finals. Cox’s long string of credits helped land her at Arkansas, but her skills and leadership have made her a thriving force on the team. “She is a very intelligent soccer player,” coach Kathy Ludwig said. “Because of the position she played last year, she needed to come in and be a leader, and be vocal—and she did that.” This season, Cox was called on once again. Ludwig shifted her to the mid-field in order to help with the transition game. Ludwig called Cox her best defense player. “I think she was a stabiliz¬ ing force,” Ludwig said. “She provided leadership in an area where we were very young.” The move was an adjust¬ ment for Cox, who scored in the last game against Creighton. “Playing defense is just challenging,” Cox said. “It’s a lot more challenging than an offensive posi tion. To be cal led the best defensive player on this team is a major comple¬ ment to me, and it makes me feel really good. I’m mainly a mental player, so for someone to notice that, is really nice.” • ALL-TIME SCORING LEADER SETS THE PACE FEW players are legends in their own time. In the eyes of the soccer team and coach, Mary Howard is one of the few. The 5-8 Texan holds every scoring mark in the University’s record book. She also earned almost every con¬ ceivable honor in high school. For Howard, there’s only one accolade left to earn — Colle¬ giate All-American. When entering the Univer¬ sity, Howard chose to partici¬ pate in one sport after excel¬ ling in five sports at Dallas’ Bryan Adams High School, and her collegiate sport was soccer. “Howard is a complete player. She has all the skills to play anywhere on the field. She’s the kind of player that can win a game on her own when needed. She could run cross country at the Univer¬ sity, she’s that kind of athlete,” said coach Kathy Ludwig. Although Howard has led the way for three years as Ar¬ kansas’premier scorer, thisyear she came in third with two goals and five points. • [ CORECARD SOCCER ■J LTwiNS 7 LOSSES 2 TIES Regis 2-1 NE Missouri State 0-2 Missouri Valley 1-1 Creighton 2-1 Quincy 0-2 Texas A M 0-0 Nebraska 1-0 Tulsa 2-5 Louisville 4-1 Southern Illinois 1-2 Missouri-Rolla 2-0 Vanderbilt 1-0 Tulsa 1-0 College of the Southwest 1-2 Creighton 4-0 Texas Chistian 0-2 Soccer - Livingston 85 86 Sports LEAN SWEEP MEN ' S TRACK TEAMS EARN SWC ' TRIPLE CROWN; CAPTURE SEVENTH NCAA INDOOR CHAMPIONSHIP FOR the men’s track and field program, winning conference and national championships has become old hat. Nationally, the men’s Razorback track program accomplished what no other university ever has. The Razorbacks won a third straight (and seventh in nine years) Southwest Conference triple crown — a sweep of the cross country, indoor and outdoor titles in the same school ON THE RUN. Razorback Eric Henry, sophomore, gave a consistent performance in the Arkansas Invitational for a ninth place finish. Freshmen Brian Baker (30:42) and David Welsh (30:47) led the Razorbacks with fifth- and sixth- place finishes overall. Arkansas fuiished first with a 53-61 win over Brigham Young. Kansas, Oklahoma and the Arkansas Alumni rounded out ifie top five. year. The men also finished fifth at the NCAA Cross Country Champi¬ onships and won a seventh consecu¬ tive NCAA indoor title while finishing second at the outdoor meet. “What we have done this year is incredible,” men’s head coach John McDonnell said. “Look around at the other schools. Nobody else is even close.” The Lady Razorback program also rose near the top of the SWC. The Lady Razorbacks boasted 13 All- Americans and countless single event champions. One of the program’s most cher¬ ished honors was the 1988 SWC cross country championship. After six years of finishing second behind J. APPLEBY PHOTO BY P. T. P Texas, the Lady Razorbacks ran away with the championship rings. The defending champions were not as lucky this season, coming in third behind Texas and Baylor. During the indoor season, the women made strong individual performances at the SWC Indoor Championships. As a team, Arkan¬ sas hoped to finish fourth at the SWC, but instead were fifth as injuries limited the number of team members in Fort Worth, and took a toll on the overall team scoring. But, for four individuals, the Eighth Annual SWC Indoor Track and Field Championships was a weekend to remember. Senior LaShawn Haythe become the first sprint champion for Arkansas. Junior triple jumper Cynthia Moore shat¬ tered her own indoor mark for the second time. Sophomore Stacey Ware captured the University’s 5,000 meter record. And, senior Jackie Mota claimed second in the 3,000 meters. “Haythe’s got the most explosive start in the country,” head coach Bev Rouse said. “She just continued it through the whole race. It was the perfect race.” • LUNKETT Track Introduction 87 HAMPIONS RAZORBACKS EARN SEVENTH CONSECUTIVE NCAA INDOOR TITLE UNPRECEDENTED. Seven consecutive NCAA titles were almost unheard of in the competitive world of collegiate athletics, but don’t tell that to coach John McDonnell and his men’s outdoor track team. The Southwest Conference champion Razorbacks (for thel6th year) walked away from the NCAA championships in Indian- apolis by outscoring runner-up Texas A M 44 ' 36. Florida was third with 29. Two Razorbacks claimed championship titles in their events. Reuben Reina, junior, blasted past the field with two laps to go to win the 3,000 meters in 7 minutes, 56.62 seconds. “I didn’t care about the time, I just wanted to win. We’re here for the team title,” Reina said. Edrick Floreal, a Canadian senior, earned his second NCAA Indoor Championship, to accompany two previous NCAA Out¬ door championships, in the triple jump. Floreal salvaged his presence into the finals with a 54-4 leap on his third and final jump of the third and final flight. He eventually won it with a 54 ' 10. In the mile, Arkansas’ Eric Henry (3:59.18) and Johan Boakes (4:00.56) placed second and fifth respectively to give the Hogs 10 points. The Razorbacks also placed second in the 3,200 relay at 7:20.58. In the pole vault Marcus McGahee (17 ' 8) earned seventh. Razorback, Gary Johnson (53-8 1 4), made a strong showing in the triple jump. Johnson was third. • PACESETTER. Ruben Reina, junior, qualified for the NCAA Championships in the 3,000 meters by running the race in a blazing 7 minutes, 54 seconds at the Arkansas Invitational to pull ahead of fellow Razorback Alex Hallock. Reina won the NCAA Championship at the end of the season with a slightly slower time of 7 minutes, 56.62 seconds. “It was a great effort by Reuben,” coach John McDonnell said of Reina’s qualifying race. “He followed the rabbit (Harvey Mitro) who ran a perfect pace for the first 2,000 meters, and then Reuben kicked it home.” D. YARBROUGH PHOTO ft Sports CLEAN SWEEP FLOREAL EARNS THIRD NCAA TITLE THREE proved to be the lucky number as senior Edrick Floreal’s (right) third straight NCAA Outdoor triple jump title enabled Arkansas to take second place in the NCAA Track and Field Champion- ships. LSU won both the men’s and women’s outdoor titles for the second straight year, scor¬ ing 44 points in the men’s meet to Arkansas’ 36. Baylor was a surprising third with 34 points, edging Florida by a half-point. Coach John McDonnel 1 was all smiles as the Razorbacks picked up their silver trophy. “1 am definitely pleased,” McDonnell said. “Thisfinished up a beautiful year for us.” Floreal, who also won the last two NCAA Indoor triple jump titles, sailed 56-6 1 2 on his next tolast jump to win the event and establish a Wallace Wade Stadium record. T. EWART PHOTO Sophomore Gary Johnson earned his second outdoor A11- America honor in t he triple jump as he finished eighth at 52-1. Arkansas also got big con¬ tributions from junior Johan Boakes in the 1,500-meter run and senior Reuben Reina in the 5,000-meter run. Boakes placed third in a personal-best 3:40.76, and Reina was also third in 14:10.99. Reina, picked second be¬ fore the meet, made a big move with 700 meters left in his race but ran out of steam down the last 200. The pace was very slow for most of the 5,000. It quick¬ ened with three laps to go as the lead pack came through in 63 seconds. Reina burst past Nuttall, German Beltran of Alabama and several others to aike the lead. ButTrautmann and Nuttall went with Reina and the pair past him with 200 meters left. “I’m definitely not happy I didn’t win,” Reina said. “But I’m not disappointed with my race — I gave it all I had. If I had it to do over again, I would wait a little longer before making my move. The pace was really too slow and kept some people in the race that maybe shouldn’t have been there.” CROSS COUNTRY DOMINATES SWC WINNERS come and go, but few pro¬ grams can boast of 16 years of excellence. But, John McDonnell’s men’s cross country program can. The harriers won their 16th straight South¬ west Conference country title in Dallas on Oct. 28. The team also finished fifth at the NCAA Men’s Cross Country Championship. The team placed its top five runners among the first eight finishers to earn the low score of 27. Texas placed a distant second with 53 points followed by Houston with 92. “Our guys did a super job,” McDonnell said. “They ran tough and competitive at the front of the park. Anytime you can put five men in the top eight spots, well, that’s pretty amazing for a conference meet.” The Hogs were led by sophomore Eric Henry, who finished second with a time of24:38 for the five-mile course. Henry was also Arkansas’ top finisher in the NCAA Championship, finish¬ ing 22nd. He was followed by Reuben Reina, seventh in 25:00 and David Welsh, eighth in 25:01. The title gave Arkansas the conference’s longest streak of outright championships, but the winning never gets old for McDonnell or his runners. Henry said, “Sixteen in a row is awesome. I came from a team in high school with tradition to a team in college with tradition. It’s good to keep the string going, and I hope we’ll keep it going for a long time to come.” • j CORECARD M.

Arkansas scored 121 points for third, while Texas managed only 144 to finish fourth for the first time ever. Houston edged past Rice in the final event of the day for the SWC title, 138 to 135. “I’m very pleased with our scoring. It was more than I thought we could get coming in,” coach Bev Rouse said. “This was the closest conference meet I’ve ever seen. “It was nice to finally beat Texas,” Rouse said. “It was something we’ve tried to do the last nine years and it was a nice way to end my coaching career at Arkansas.” Senior Jackie Mota captured the 5,000 meters to become only the fourth Razorback to win two SWC outdoor titles at the same meet. ‘This really rounds out my season,” Mota said. “Dou- blingat the conference is what I vebeen aiming for all season.” Mota finished with a 17:10.94, and led Arkansas in points thanks to her 3,000 meter championship on May 18 with 20 points. LaShawn Haythe also ran her finest SWC meet of her career, finishing second in both the 100 and 200 meters. Haythe ran 11.54, the fastest time recorded for the 100, and a personal best for Haythe.

Yet another field mark fell with freshman Amanda Allen downing her discus record by one inch, throwing 148-01 for a personal best and sixth place. Another freshman, Susan Cope, also hit a personal best in the discus with a 141 - 2 for seventh place. LaTayna Stewart hit a personal best in the 400-meter hurdles to finish fourth with a time of 61.91, but Arkansas’ Shannon Carter (above) pulled a hamstring in the 100-meter hurdles and had a scratch from the 400. • TRIPLE JUMP: ALL-AMERICAN MOORE EARNS NCAA SECOND UPON arrivingat Arkan¬ sas, Cynthia Moore was utterly unaware that the triple jump even existed. Just three years later, she would be an All- American in the event. “Cynthia turned out to be one of the best students I’ve ever coached in the jumps,” as¬ sistant coach Kelly Lycan said. The junior parlayed that gift into a second place finish in the triple jump at the NCAA Indoor Championships. The 42-foot, five and three- quarter inch jump bested the school mark as well as Moore’s personal record. Also, it made her the first Razorback All- American in a field event. • J.

As the buzzer sounded on the regular season, the scoreboard read: “ Arkansas 104, Rice 80.” The victory secured the South- west Conference championship and worked the last official home game for senior forward Lenzie Howell (24). As Howell and 9,396 fans savor the moment, fans and players were looking ahead to the South ' west Conference Classsic and the NCAA Tournament. R. MINOR PHOTO HOLLYWOOD couldn’t have cast a script with more drama than the Razorback basketball season. The Southwest Conference Champions finished the season in the NCAA Final Four and earned a 30-5 overall record — the second best in the school’s history. As defending SWC champions, and only losing one senior, the season started with high expecta¬ tions, and the team pleased even the most demanding Hog fans. The year got off to a bang, as Arkansas won five straight. On Dec. 9, Arkansas set a school record by scoring 166 points against U.S. International in Barnhill. However, on Dec. 13, the Hogs got shot down, 88-89, by a Missouri team that would be number one for a large part of the year. Three wins followed and Richardson’s club embarked on a journey to the “Shark’s Tank” in Las Vegas to take on the eventual National Champion Running Rebels. The Rebs took a 93-101 decision, despite 28 points from Todd Day. The Hogs then won 12 straight as they shot through the first part of the conference season undefeated and climbed as high as number three in the country before dropping games to Baylor and TCU. The BY MATT Razorbacks finished the conference season at 14-2 as they headed to Dallas and “Barnhill South” to defend their Classic Championship from the year before. After skipping past SMU and Baylor, Arkansas defeated a tough Houston team, 96-84, in the finals. As a number-four seed in the Midwest Regional, Arkansas drew a Princeton team that had almost upset Georgetown in the 1989 NCAA Tournament. Arkansas slipped past the Tigers and Dayton in the tourney to set up a showdown with perennial ACC power, North Carolina, back in Reunion Arena in Dallas. Arkansas beat the Tar Heels, 96-73, and reached the round of eight where they faced the Texas. Arkansas defeated the Longhorns, 88-85, and drew Duke in the Final Four. The Blue Devils, however, used past Final Four experience to whip the Hogs, 97-83. “I am proud of this team,” said Nolan Richardson after the loss. “They’re young, and I thought the youth started showing up at the end of the ballgame. We needed to make some decisions. You could tell that each player wanted to take it on his own to bring us back. We’ve been able to do that at times, but today we weren’t able to pull that off.” • STE WM AN M. Basketball Introduction OADSHOW RAZORBACKS DAZZLE FANS ACROSS THE STATE WITH SIX SCRIMMAGES THE faces on the opposing team looked familiar. No, they weren’t a Southwest Conference foe, but rather fellow Razor- backs. The basketball team had to face one another before starting the regular season against Samford. And, Hog fans by the thousands turned out to see the action as the players toured Arkansas, playing six Red-White scrim¬ mages. Approximately 1,500 fans gathered at Ridgecrest High School, in Paragould to watch the third intrasquad game. Although Todd Day led the White team with 40 points, the Red team beat the White unit, 140-124. “If we can keep up defensively with ourselves, we can keep up with anybody,” coach Nolan Richardson said. ‘These games will help us because nobody will run like we do.” Arkansas’ fourth scrimmage of the season started slowly, but built to some drama at the free throw line with Lee Mayberry and Ron Huery canning throws down the stretch to help the Red team to a 116-112 win over the White before 3,850 fans in Harrison. The scrimmage netted just over $14,000 for a youth center project in Harrison. The Razorback’s last Red-White game was played in Little Rock. Coach Richardson said his players gave the 6,824 fans for the sixth Red-White game a pretty good show at Barton Coliseum. The money raised totaled $53,069, and the bulk of it was donated to five charities. “By the end of the last Red-White scrimmage, we were getting tired of beating up on each other. But it was pretty competi¬ tive. The nice part of it was the fans were there in big numbers and it was more like a real game atmosphere,” Richardson said. • REDHANDED. The outstretched arms of Red team player Lenzie Howell (24) weren’t enough to stop Ron Huery (31) from adding two points to the scoreboard, Arlyn Bowers (20) stands ready in case the shot misses. STAFF PHOTO 94 Sports UP IN ARMS HUERY RETURNS AS ROLE PLAYER WHAT a difference a year makes. Ron Huery, suspended by coach Nolan Richardson for the entire previous season and now reinstated and playing virtually on one leg, limps off the bench to replace Arlyn Bowers, who sprained his wrist when fouled by Texas’ Travis Mays. Huery coolly shoots the one-and-one free throws with: 16 left, cinching an 88-85 NCAA Midwest Regional victory over Texas in Dal¬ las that launches Arkansas into the Final Four against Duke in Denver. “I thought it was funny,” Huery said of the irony of his winning free throws. “It felt like the place for me, you know.” Huery has spent his entire Razorback ca¬ reer bailing Richardson out of jams and being bailed out of jams by Richardson. No question in Huery’s mind as to which one owes the most to the other. “I may have bailed him out of the last one,” Huery said. “But he bailed me out of the tight spots. If it was another coach, I wouldn’t be here. I’d be somewhere out on the streets. I’m thankful, grateful.” Huery, a fourth-year junior swingman from Memphis Whitehaven, suffered well-chron¬ icled problems that involved alcohol, and in two instances combined driving and firearms with alcohol. Huery’s problems created conflicting opin¬ ions about what should be done about him. Richardson felt Huery was owed nothing but a chance. So, Richardson suspended him for thel988- 89 season but got him enrolled in an alcohol abuse treatment program. “He opened my eyes that there are things more important than basketball,” Huery said. “And that the way I was going, I was going to go out in the street and do somethingyou can t win at. He has tried to make me be the best person I can be.” Arkansas’s 1988-89 season also turned Huery around. Huery had been the star of Razorback teams that went 19-14 and 21-9 in ’86-87 and 87- 88. Then without him, the Hogs went 25-7 and claimed their first SWC Tournament championship under Richardson. “When I was a sophomore,” Huery re¬ called. “I was really thickheaded. I thought this team needed me more than I need the team. The year I redshirted I grew up 20 years in one. I realized that they don’t need me. I need the team.” There’s no denying, though, that the Hogs needed Huery back when he signed during the early signing period in the autumn of 85. Razorback fans, beleaguered as Richardson went 12-16 with players he inherited from Eddie Sutton, at least knew Huery’s heralded R. MINOR PHOTO help was on the way. “He was the hope player,” Richardson said. “He was the one people looked up to.” And followed. This season, Huery returned not as a star but as a role player. Lee Mayberry and Day had the star roles, while Huery played backup swingman for the Hog’s 30-4 SWC and NCAA Nidwest Regional championships. The return hasn’t been perfect. Huery was suspended from the team when Arkansas lost to TCU in Fort Worth. Neither Richardson nor Huery disclosed de¬ tails, but Huery said slacking off in school was part of it.” “I slacked off in a lot of things,” Huery said. “I got too satisfied, too happy. Things were going too easy. I’ve got 26 hours left to get a degree and I’m going to get it.” It hasn’t been easy on the court, either. Huery injured an already aching knee in the champion¬ ship game victory over Houston in the SWC Tournament. He has limped and gimped but came through in the NCAA Tournament victories over Prin¬ ceton, Dayton, North Carolina and Texas. And when Bowers grabbed his wrist and couldn’t shoot those free throws and needed a replacement from the bench? ‘There was no doubt,” Edgar said. “Coach went straight to Huery.” • Arkansas Gazette Basketball - Red-White Game 95 UP IN ARMS STUDENT FANS LOOK FOR NEW ALTERNATIVES IN SEATING POLICY R. ROBINSON PHOTO “YOU can’t please every ' one.” This cliche should have been the promotional slogan for ticket sales in Barnhill. Once again, the student seating policy for the men’s basketball game drew criticism from the student fans. Students supported the “first come, first serve seating pol- icy,” implemented last season until they received poor seats, or worst yet, no seats at all. At first, students didn’t mind waiting hours to see a basket ' ball game, but when student fans were forced to skip classes or work, the old reserved-seat system looked appealing. At the Jan. 30 Associated Student Government meeting, students gathered to debate the increasing problem of student seating at Razorback basket ' ball games after the senate floor was opened to a forum discus ' sion. Sens. Jason Hatfield, Stephen Clinton and others suggested the university return to reserved sea ti ng for s tude n ts. The senators said the current policy led to students saving seats hours before the games and non ' Students sitting in the the student section. “It’s not fair that some stU ' dents are skipping class to save seats, while others have to go to class or work until game time,” Clinton said. ‘Those students are having a problem finding seating. “With the reserved seating, you could get a good sea t or you could get a bad seat, but at least you had a place to sit,” Hatfield said. One proponent of the cur ' rent policy was Sen. Mark Myers, who said the only prob ' lem was with the students who saved seats by putting a ‘re ' served’ sign on them and then left the arena. “I think that people getting there early is in a way starting to foster a little more spirit in the crowds than there has been in the past,” Myers said. ASG president Eric Mum son said Chancellor Dan Ferri ' tor was looking into the vari ' ous problems that have arisen due to the current seating poh icy. • James Brittingham 1— c [ CORECARD M.

As the clock ticked down, and with the Razorbacks holding a firm lead, Robken and his Hog Wild band members ripped off one set of T-shirts to reveal another. The second shirts said, “Back-to-Back Champions.” The shirts sent a clear message to the 16,713 fans inside Dallas’ Reunion Arena. Arkansas defeated Houston, 96-84, and repeated as SWC league and post-season champions. “I just wanted to wait for the right moment to take them off,” Robken said. Todd Day, the tournament’s most valuable player, said: “We were defending champs and we felt the only way we were going to lose is somebody was going to have to rip our heads off and take it from us. We weren’t going to let go of it.” Arkansas did the ripping against Hous¬ ton. The Hogs opened each half with damaging runs that proved the difference. The Hogs jumped to a 9-0 lead in the first 2:40 minutes of the game. Arkansas broke from a 52-50 halftime edge with a 13-0 run in the opening 3:25 minutes of the second half. “Last year when we won, I think we were twice as excited because it was the first time,” Nolan Richardson said. “But I’m extra excited this time because we were able to do it in a great fashion, in a great ball game, against a good basketball team.” And, in winning, the Razorbacks earned the SWC’s automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. • MAKING THE POINT The ninth-ranked Hogs defeated Houston in “Barnhill South” 96-84, before approximately 12,000 Razorback fans. After the win, Oliver Miller joined the all-tournament team along with Todd Day and Lee Mayberry. “We want to go all the way,” Miller said. “But right now I ' ve got the trophy that says we ' re No. 1 in the Southwest Conference.” D. YARBROUGH PHOTO Basketball - SWC Title 97 PEP rallies and bonfires fires took a back seat as thousands of Hog fans scrambled to purchase tickets to the Razorback’s first Final Four appearance since 1978. Bill Gray, associate athletic director, said that all of Arkansas’ 1,650 tickets were sold within hours of the Razorbacks victory over Texas in the finals of the Midwest Regional in Dallas. “It’s been as exciting as anything that’s happened around here in a long time.” Gray said. “We’ve certainly had a lot more requests than we have tickets, that’s for sure.” Razorback fans hosted parties to cele¬ brate the Final Four trip. Junior Clay Simpson said, “I just went out with a couple of friends and we had a few, then we came back to my place, had a few more and didn’t take our eyes of the set. We thought we had it won in the second half, but we blew it!” Still, other fans had trouble even watching the game because of the stress level involved. “At some points in the game, I couldn’t even watch,” junior P.T. Plunkett said. “I had to go outside for some of the game. When the Hogs made their big run in the second half, myself and six of my friends went outside and called the Hogs. Before we knew it, practically all the residents of Chestnut II joined in.” However, after all the game was over and Duke had proven they were the better team that afternoon, the fans’ attitudes were probably best summed up by senior Carter Freeman. “It was good to finally get to see the piggies go to the market.” Freeman said. ‘Too bad they had to be the first to come home.” • Matt Stewman FOULED.

HORTON PHOTO DIANE RAGSDALE of Fort Smith didn’t mind wait¬ ing three hours Tuesday at Drake Field for the Arkansas Razorback basketball team to return from Denver. Ragsdale and about 125 other Hog fans waited until 3:10 p.m. for the Razorbacks. The flight was originally sched¬ uled to arrive in Fayetteville at noon. Ragsdale had a little more reason than most to see the delay through. She had collected 5,000 signatures on a petition asking basketball coach Nolan Richardson to stay in Arkan¬ sas. Ragsdale said that she and her cousin, Jeannie White, had gotten the signatures in about a week. “After they made the Final Four, we were trying to figure out something to do to show that we who can’t get tickets and go to Bamhill cheer just as loud in our living rooms,” she said. “We want [Richardson] to stay in Arkansas forever or longer.” The top of the petition read: “We love you and the Hogs and Hawgball. Please, please, please don’t leave Arkansas.” Richardson and the players seemed somewhat leery of their fans. When the players arrived they stood for about 15 min¬ utes on the other side of the fence separating them from the fans. They didn’t enter the fans’ area until after they had gotten their luggage. Only a few play¬ ers signed autographs. Print and broadcast report¬ ers including Scott Stewart of The Arkansas Traveler were also on hand to interview players including Oliver Miller. And, the coach and players did praise Hog fans while dis¬ cussing the s eason. “Knowing our fans, I would be surprised if they didn’t show up,” Richardson said. At his car Richardson re¬ fused to sign autographs for about 10 people who sur¬ rounded his car, saying “If I sign one, I have to sign them all.” He told a young fan, “I’m trying to get home.” He did accept the petition from Ragsdale, which was in a white box with hearts on it. Ernie Murry, a reserve point guard, said he appreciated the fans turning out. “Even though we had a three-hour delay in Denver this shows we not only have great sports in Arkansas, but that we have great fans. Somethinglike this is really great because it speaks so highly of the people.” Todd Day concurred. “We knew they’d be here win lose or draw,” Day said. Brad Hemingway’s son, Joshua age 8, was a casualty of the Hogs’ late arrival. Joshua couldn’t stay at the airport; he had a doctor’s appointment. “Joshua learned all the Hog players’ names during the Fi¬ nal Four,” his father said. “Even though he couldn’t stay and wait, he wanted metobringhis brother [Coleson] and the bas¬ ketball back to see if we could get a few autographs,” which they did, Hemingway said.

The team handed the Texas Lady Longhorns their first Southwest Conference loss in history and stunned a Texas home crowd with a 82-77 upset to claim a share of the conference championship title. “I’m kinda stunned. We never lost our composure on offense and every time we had to score somebody had the big play,” said head coach John Sutherland. Sutherland was named SWC Coach of the Year for the second consecutive year and the third time in his career. In all, the team broke 41 team BY MATT records en route to a 25-5 season and the SWC co-championship. The team also shattered all previ¬ ous attendance records for women’s basketball in the state averaging 1,754 fans per game — almost double the per game turnout in previous seasons. On Jan. 24, 6,327 fans packed into Barnhill Arena to watch Ar¬ kansas battle Texas. And although the Lady Razorbacks lost 75-84, the turnout set the state collegiate single game attendance record for women’s basketball. With only one senior on the team, sports fans considered the banner year even more remarkable. Juliet Jackson, the only senior, was named to the second-team All-SWC squad along with team member Amber Nicholas. According to Sutherland, junior Delmonica DeHorney was the catalyst on the squad, as she was named SWC Player-of-the-Year and team MVP.

Since academic accomplishments were sometimes overshadowed by success on the court, the University recognized the women with a May 1 reception. In addition to those who had earned All- America or All-Southwest Conference honors, 39 athletes with grade point averages of 3.0 or better for the fall semester received special certificates. Junior Sue Pack, sophomore Amber Nicholas and freshman Sally Moore earned 4.0 averages. Head coach John Sutherland was pleased, but not surprised, by the three players’ grades. “The performance in the classroom of those three is a real indication of the type of student-athlete we have at the University of Arkansas,” Sutherland said. “They all strived to be the best, not just on a basket¬ ball court or in a classroom, but to be the best in everything they did.” Pack, who won the Southwest Conference’s GTE Scholar Award earlier in the season, was sidelined with another knee injury. Pack, a microbiology major, was preparing for medical school. Her overall GPA was 3.78. Nicholas emerged as one of the region’s strongest candidates to make the prestigious College Sports Information Directors of America academic All-America team.

She plans to continue in the honors track with a major in physical therapy. • STANDOUT. “Amber Nicholas is an example of what it’s all about in college athletics.

She didn’t have to. “It sounds like a cliche, but it’s just another example of what hard work will do,” head coach John Sutherland said. “Everybody makes excuses for why they don’t perform, but the best players find a way to get the job done.” DeHomey not only added accomplishments to her own scoreboard, but helped add to the team’s scoreboard. Among DeHomey’s accom¬ plishments this season were: SWC player of week three times, “Sports Illustrated” National Player of the Week and Most Valuable Player, and the list goes on. On Jan. 10, DeHomey was named Southwest Conference women’s basketball Player of the Week, and was named two more times. DeHomey, a 6-4 post player from Poteau, Okla., scored 50 points in two SWC wins. Arkansas defeated Houston, 75-64, and Texas, 76-74, in overtime. She pulled down a season- high seven rebounds against Houston, and scored 16 points. DeHomey also recorded a team best for the year with five blocked shots. Her biggest accomplish¬ ment was against Houston, when she scored a point-a- minute. DeHomey had a ca¬ reer high of 34 points in 34 minutes. Then on Feb. 28, DeHor- ney was chosen by “Sports Il¬ lustrated” as its national women’s Basketball Player of the Week. DeHomey collected several other milestones during that week. She broke the long¬ standing record for blocked shots in a season with nine the week before, totaling up to 64 blocks, bettering Amanda Holley’s 1983-84 record of 57. For her three-year career, DeHomey had 184 blocks, just shy of breaking Holley’s Uni¬ versity record of 185. DeHomey, Arkansas’ league scoring leader in recent memory, became the SWC’s field goal accuracy leader. Her 19.0 ppg bettered Baylor’s Lanita Luckey’s 18.8 ppg. Luckey led the conference most of the season. DeHomey also slipped into the Arkansas 1,000-point club. Her 28 points against Texas A M put her over the top, and combined with 26 points against Texas she accumulated 1,058 points, eighth best on the all-time career list. Finally, DeHomey was honored as the Most Valuable Player for the team at the Lady Razorback Awards Banquet. DeHomey also received certificates from the Southwest Conference for her selection as the league’s Player of the Year and as a member of the first team all-SWC squad.

The Texas winning SWC streak was building since 1982 and also included a 47 game home winning streak. “Outside of winning a NCAA champi¬ onship,” head coach John Sutherland said, “I couldn’t think of a bigger victory for Arkansas than defeating the Texas Long¬ horns.” The win placed Arkansas in a tie for the SWC lead with Texas, and lifted the team to 21-3 overall. Arkansas was 14-T in the SWC, holding a half-game lead over 13-1 Texas. Texas was 20-4 overall.

BOESE PHOTO FF THE BOARD SWIM TEAMS SPRING INTO ACTION SHARING A COACH; ENCOUNTER ROUGH WATERS IN SWC, NCAA COMPETITION REBUILDING. A sports cliche, but a fitting adjective to describe the Razorback swimming program. The men welcomed a new head coach, actually an old face around the Razorback swimming program. Martin Smith, the women’s head coach for the past three seasons, took over as both the men’s and women’s coach. As a former all- American for the Razorbacks, he had a burning desire to instill a new crop of swimmers. “I want everyone to know that the fire is back in men’s swimming,” Smith said. “ This will be a rebuild¬ ing year, but we will have more intensity.” The Razorbacks lost several key leaders from last season’s team that finished 25th at the NCAA champi¬ onships and fourth in the Southwest Conference. At the top of the list of swimmers that Smith had to replace was freestyle All-American Mike Neuhofel. “You can’t replace a swimmer like him,” he said. Although the Razorbacks were not left empty handed. The team was led by returning All-Americans Neil Bradley and Eric Colwill as well as All-American senior Dave McCrary. In all, ten of the men’s 22 swim¬ mers were freshman, with another three first-year newcomers or trans¬ fers. The season was officially over . when the swimmers climbed out of the pool, dryed themselves off and finished 44th in the NCAA champi¬ onships. The women finished their season with a 25th place finish overall at the NCAA Championships. As a whole, the women posted big wins during the year against confer¬ ence foes Texas A M and TCU. As host of the Razorback Invitational meet, The Lady Razorbacks defeated eventual eighth place NCAA finisher SMU, 13th place Georgia and 20th place LSU. These victories didn’t help the team in the SWC Championships, though, as they finished fourth. “We really had a strong first semester,” Smith said. “We were on schedule to have a great season after the Razorback Invitational, but the second semester we fell a little flat. At the SWC we had a lot of good things happen, but our better swim¬ mers and divers didn’t compete too well.” • BY MATT STE WM AN Swimming Introduction 107 UCCESSFUL WOMEN BEAT RANKED TEAMS TO WIN THEIR OWN INVITATIONAL IT was fitting that the Razorback Collegiate and Diving Invitational was named after the Hogs. After all, the Arkansas women’s swimming and diving team dominated the meet. The team finished first out of seven teams at the three day meet hosted on campus at the HPER Natatorium. Arkansas, ranked 18th in the nation at that point in the season, scored 736.5 points. No. 9-ranked Georgia was second with 651, Kansas was third with 644.5, No. 14-ranked Arizona finished fourth with 588, No. 17 ' ranked Southern Methodist was next with 405. Louisiana State was sixth with 340 and Drury was seventh with 148. In men’s action, Arkansas placed fifth behind Arizona, Kansas, Georgia and LSU. New Mexico and Drury finished sixth and seventh respectively. Sophomore swimmer Stacey Benesch turned in a personal best and an NCAA qualifying time in the 200 individual medley with a time of 2:00.15 to spark the opening day. “I was very pleased to make my NCAA cut early,” Benesch said. In the one-meter women’s diving competition Becky Martin placed fourth and Lisa Bransby followed close behind in sixth. “The women had a very good meet for this point in the season, especially Martin, Bransby and Paula Ross,” first year diving coach Dale Schultz said. For the men, Steve Lewandowski finished fourth in the 200 individual medley. Robbie Fritscher placed in the finals with an eighth place finish in the 200 IM. The men’s medley relay placed fourth as well. ‘The men swam well overall,” said coach Martin Smith. “The medley relay did well and surprised me with their time..” • ALL SMILES.

ROBINSON PHOTO 108 Sports OFF THE BOARD MARTIN QUALIFIES FOR NCAA MEET IN TWO EVENTS DEDICATED and fo¬ cused were two terms diving coach Dale Schultz used to de- cribe Becky Martin, a senior returning All-American. Fu¬ eled by a 9th place finish in the 10M and 17 th place finish in the 3M at the 1989 NCAA Championships, Martin placed fourth in the 3M in 1990. Her success was accented with comeback after a car acci¬ dent left her with a broken arm in 1987. The following spring she was back in the pool and placed second in the South¬ west Conference 10M. Martin qualified for two NCAA events by scoring 246.75 in the 1-meter and 248.85 in the3-meter to sweep the diving competition and assist Arkansas in defeating Texas Christian 83-30 in a home, dual meet. Her fourth place finish ad¬ vanced her to the Senior Na¬ tional DivingChampsionships. After graduating, she par¬ ticipated in the Olympic Sports Festival and hoped to make the U.S. National team for the 1992 games. • R. ROBINSON PHOTO KOSHAREK: DOUBLE WINNER AGAINST TCU IT was a good day for Jack Kosharek, the Razorback’s only double winner, but overall the men’s swimming and diving team experi¬ enced a frustrating day on Nov. 18 when it dropped a dual meet to Texas Christian 67-46. Arkansas won the meet’s first event, the 400 medley relay, in a time of3:29.60 as Steve Lewandowski, Erik Colwill, Neil Bradley and Mitch North combined to take first place. Kosharek won the 200 freestyle for the Razorbacks in a time of 1:42, and also took first place in the 100 freestyle in 46:65. Lewandowski won the 200 backstroke in 1:56.39, and Andy Serie won the one-meter diving with 268.95 points. Serie finished sec¬ ond on the three-meter board with 234.60 points, just behind TCU’s Kyle Bass at 244.13. Arkansas’ strongest event was the 200 breaststroke, as Robbie Fritscher and Colwill finished one-two. Fritscher won in 2:09.13 while Colwill was second in 2:10.16. The Razorbacks struggled with the loss of senior Dave McCrary, who had been ruled aca¬ demically ineligible during the season and will redshirt. ‘We were close, but not close enough,” said coach Martin Smith. “We justdidn’thave enough depth to stay with TCU in a dual meet. It hurts to lose a guy like McCary. He would probably have won two events and helped us in the 400 free relay.” cj j CORECARD M.

AYRE PHOTO NMATCHED ON OPPOSITE PLAYING COURTS, THE TENNIS SQUADS MADE STRONG SHOWING AS THE GOLF TEAM EXPERIENCED UPS, DOWNS THE football and basketball teams, the biggest revenue earners for the Arkansas sports program, successfully defended their South¬ west Conference crowns, but that didn’t mean the excitement was over for Hog fans. During what was some called the “slow time” of the athletic year, the tennis and golf squads were just beginning to compete, with little or no visible support from Razorback fans. Arkansas’ golf team experienced ups and downs during the year. “We haven’t had a great year because the team is so young,” said coach Bill Woodley. But the Hogs were optimistic going into the SWC championship. Three sophomores and two fresh¬ men; Deane Pappas, Brendan Pap¬ pas, Wes McNulty, Mike Ethering- ton and Hans Haas, took the course for the Razorbacks in Austin, Texas, to battle for the SWC crown. The Arkansas golfers walked away with sixth place. Heading into the final round of the NCAA Central Regionals, the Razorbacks still had high hopes — even though they were 20th out of 21 teams. Although, with a NCAA championship on the line, the Arkansas somehow made up 15 strokes and leaped to 10th position in team standings, good enough to qualify for the NCAA tourney. Arkansas finished 30th, last place, at the 93rd NCAA Division I Golf Championships. Teeing off to another sort of sport during the spring season were the men’s and women’s tennis teams. After the men won the SWC championship last season and were left out of the national tournament, Coach Robert Cox said Arkansas ' schedule needed to be improved. He seemingly accomplished that. With a 6-5 overall record, the Razorbacks headed to Austin for the SWC championship. The twelfth- ranked Longhorns dominated Ar¬ kansas, 8-1, to capture the SWC tennis championship. Arkansas may have captured the SWC crown last season, but it was a struggle through injuries to finish seventh this season. Injuries, especially to number-one player Mike Brown and number-two Donnie Wood, hindered the Hogs.

On the other side of the court, with four retumi ng play¬ ers from a 17-8 team that went 4-4 in the SWC, the Lady Razorbacks set out to unseat Texas from its position of per¬ ennial champion in women’s tennis. Arkansas made quite a showing before bowing out. The underrated Hogs took two matches to earn a berth in the SWC finals against Texas, but lost out in straight sets 7-0 to the host Longhorns. “We had a nice mixture of old and young, baseline and net, power and finesse, struc¬ ture and art,” said coach Mar¬ tin Novak.“Our physical back¬ ground compares with any¬ body.” Arkansas entered the spring as the young-start team of the conference and region. The Lady Razorbacks dominated two of their three fall tourna¬ ments, and earned their high¬ est preseason regional ranking in recent memory — a tie for fourth as a squad with Houston and four individuals ranked in the top-30 singles players. Novak had bittersweet emo¬ tions over his team’s rise in the Southwest. “We’re shooting higher than our preseason ranking,” Novak said. “If we followed the rankings, we could com¬ pete with anyone in our re¬ gion. We want to setde it on the court.” And, that is just what the Lady Razorback’s did. Arkan¬ sas was runner-up in the SWC. q CORECARD M. TENNIS ij ' 6 WINS 5 LOSSES Miss.

However, with a berth in the NCAA Golf Championships on the line, the Hogs linksters came alive. Somehow the Hogs made up 15 strokes and leaped to 10th position in team standing — good enough to qualify for the NCAA tourney. Only the top 10 finishers at the Central Regional qualified for the NCAA ' s. Arkansas wound up with a team total of 914 to claim the last NCAA bid. Rice was ninth, with a score of 912 and Texas finished eighth. “Fifteen shots is a lot to make up, you have got to pass so many people,” Coach Bill Woodley said of the amazing rally. “I have never heard of anybody moving up 10 places on the last day. I am not making excuses, but the day before (when the Hogs fell off the pace) we played our entire round in the rain.” Oklahoma State won the Regional with a final tally of 878, followed by Ohio State, Miami (Ohio), Kent State, Southwestern Louisiana, Oklahoma and Wisconsin. At the NCAA Golf Championships, in Tarpon Springs, Fla., Arkansas had the type of start it feared most, but the Razorbacks came away from the first day of the NCAA Golf Championships just happy to have survived. Things progressively got worse as the team placed 30th out of 30 teams. The Razorbacks may not have won, but the team did introduce a new word to golf — gunge. Gunge was a popular word among the Hogs, unfortunately, the gunge was a popular place to be also. “We call the swamp the gunge,” Mike Etherington said. “It’s a word we made up, but it says it best. The gunge is when you ' re in deep trouble.” • TEEING OFF. Team members start year off with positive attitudes.

After giving up five runs to Texas in a single inning, starting pitcher Mark Swope (32) conferes with coach Norm DeDriyn (23) and catcher Tony Gilmore during the Hog’s second game in the South ' west Conference Tournament. The starter only lasted 1 2 3 innings on the mound as the Longhorns claimed an 11-4 victory. Ranked fourth in the nation, the loss dropped Arkansas’ overall record to 47-13. J. MOORE PHOTO IT was the best of times. It was the worst of times. The Razorback baseball team earned its first outright Southwest Conference baseball crown after snatching a first-ever piece of the title last year when it tied with the Texas A M Aggies. “You have to give credit to our ballclub. This club has a lot of confidence in themselves. Some key elements have taken us through the long haul. We’ve had a great de¬ fense; good pitching, a great closer (Phillip Stidham). And tough outs up and down the lineup,” coach Norm DeBriyn said. The Arkansas SWC title also gave the Hogs a “double-triple sweep,” the conference titles in all three major men’s sports for a second consecutive year. Those were the best of times. The team’s fortunes took a turn for the worst at the SWC tourna¬ ment. Following a 7-5 victory over the Rice Owls in the first game, the 47- 11 and No. 3 ranked Razorbacks were stopped by the No. 5 Texas Longhorns, 4-11. Including a loss to Wichita State before the SWC Tournament, the Hogs had lost three of their last four games. Even after the bad luck at the SWC Tournament, the NCAA gave the Razorbacks the top-seed in the Midwest Regional in Wichita. With a 47-13 record, and fifth and eighth place rankings in the national polls, the Hogs were ready for their sixth straight NCAA appearance. Or so they thought. Fordham, the six-seeded team, shocked the top- seed team, 8-5, sending Arkansas to the losers bracket of the six-team re¬ gional, where the losing continued. Wichita sent the Hogs back to Fayetteville, after earning a tough 7- 6 victory. The losses in the tournaments left some asking: “What happened to the Hogs?” DeBriyn offered an explana¬ tion. “You get about as far as pitching takes you. Obviously, at the end of the year we struggled a bit. That shows up against better competition, which is what we were playing at the end of the year,” DeBriyn concluded. “This team has competed and battled. Our recent losses have not been because of going through the motions or attitude. They way we battled here says a lot for the charac¬ ter of the club. I give this team a pat on the back. They’ve had one heck of a year.” • SCOTT BY DOUGLAS Baseball Introduction TWO SEASONS _ M.

Kirk Piskor and Greg D’Alexander crowned the Ra- zorbacks as the undisputed Southwest Conference cham- pions. The two combined for eight RBIs to pace the Hogs and win- ning reliever Dan Brown to a ti tle-cl i nch i ng, 13 - 4 rout of the Texas A M Aggies on May 6 at George Cole Field. The game left Arkansas with a 16-5 overall SWC rec- ord, one-half game ahead of second-place Texas, which finished at 15-5 after rain can¬ celed a Longhorn SWC game. Pickor, regularly the DH and also a catcher-out-fielder, went three-for-four with a three-run homer that gave Arkansas a 4-2 lead in the third, plus a single in the fourth and a RBI double in the fifth. D’Alexander, the senior third baseman who had 14 homers and 61 RBIs to Piskor’s 12 homers and 5 9 RBIs, crashed a grand-slam to help Arkansas put it out of reach in the six- run fourth. D’Alexander was elated after the game. “For Coach D to win it outright,” he said. “I feel great for him.” D’Alexander hit the game¬ winning single that salvaged a doubleheader split with A M the previous day and made it all or nothing for Arkansas in the final game. “We didn’t have a pressure pep talk,” D’Alexander said of the final game. “We were pretty loose before the game goofing around.” Piskor, who went one-for- eight with just a single bunt the previous day, labored in the batting cage long after everyone had gone home after the first games. “I hadn’t been feeling very good at the plate. I guess that extra work paid off, Piskor concluded. It certainly did. The pay off was a SWC crown. • CORECARD BASEBALL 47 WINS 15 LOSSES Mo.

After all the team had posted a 47-13 record and earned the regu¬ lar-season Southwest Conference Champi¬ onship title. “We feel very fortunate to be a No. 1 seed, and this is a chance for proximity and geographical draw. It will be nice for the fans,” coach Norm DeBriyn said referring to the Witchita, Kan. site. DeBriyn and his team had just traveled to Witchita two weeks earlier, so they were comfortable with the field. “I’m feeling lucky and happy,” DeBriyn said prior to the first game. “As a No. 1 seed, your chances are better of getting out of the regional,” he said. At the end of the first game, DeBriyn and his team didn’t feel lucky or happy. Surprised was a more accurate adjective. The top-seeded team and No. 5 ranked Arkansas team lost both games it played. In the first game, a 8-5 loss to sixth- seeded Fordham, the Hogs lost control of the game early as Fordham jumped to a 5-0 lead in the first inning against Razorback starter Doug Bennett. Arkansas eventually battled back to within a point — 5-6. In what was to be the final game of the Razorback season, the team did not go down without a fight. But the Razorbacks did go down, 6-7, to the defending national champion and host Wichita State team. At the end of the game DeBriyn was disappointed, for his team, not with them. After all, the team finished 47-15 and earned the SWC tide. Not bad, but for some not quite enough. • HEADED HOME.

Defensively, D’Alexander, who was drafted by the Baltimore Orioles in 1989, but returned to Arkansas for his senior year, experienced an uncharacterisically weak game with two errors in the first inning and another in the fifth.

HORTON PHOTO Baseball - NCAA Playoffs 117 SPORTS WRAP-UP SHE HAS THE VISION THE WOMEN ' S DEPARTMENT NEEDS FOR THE FUTURE - DAN FERRITOR BEV Rouse was moving up in the world — or at least in the athletic department. Be v Rouse was appoi nted as the director of women’s athlet- ics. “She has done an excellent job for us as the women’s track coach, but more important, she has the vision the women’s department needs for the fu- ture,” Chancellor Dan Ferri tor said. “She can use that vision to make our women’s program competitive nationwide in every sport.” The 32-year-old Calumet, Mich., native was appointed interim women’s athletic di¬ rector in June when former athleticdirectorRuth Cohoon resigned to return to full-time teaching. Rouse was head of the seven-sport, independent women’s athletic department. “I’m very fortunate to have this opportunity,” Rouse said. ‘There are some very exciting programs underway to help make Arkansas women’s ath¬ letics one of the premier pro¬ grams in the nation.” Since Rouse assumed the athletic director’s duties, the Arkansas women’s athletic department instituted numer¬ ous changes and new programs. The most prominent improve¬ ments under Rouse’s admini¬ stration was the adoption of new departmental logos, a vigorous campaign for the Lady Razorback Foundation and a radio and cable package for women’s basketball. Rouse retained her posi¬ tion as the Lady Razorback BEV ROUSE track and field coach in addi¬ tion to the athletic director’s duties. “It will be a challenge, but we have one of the most en¬ thusiastic and able coaching staffs in the country,” Rouse said. “We will meet the future together.” Among the achievements of the first few months under Rouse were the five-fold in¬ crease in contributions and membership in the Lady Ra- zoback Foundation and a tri¬ pling of women’s basketball season ticket sales. “We are off to a good start, and hopefully we can continue to grow,” she said. Rouse joined the Arkansas staff in 1981 after serving as an assistant at Purdue University. She took over the cross coun¬ try and track programs, build¬ ing both into Southwest Con¬ ference contenders. During her nine years, the cross country team has been nationally ranked in seven seasons, and finished in the top ten twice. Her 1988 out¬ door track team was ranked 20th in the nation by Track and Field New. Rouse led the university to win its only women’s Southwest Confer¬ ence championship in 1988, and there has not been an NCAA cross country champi¬ onship without as least one Arkansas entrant. She has coached 16 All- Americans, most recently adding senior Jackie Mota to that list in cross country dur¬ ing the fall. Tw ice she was chosen coach of the year in cross country by her SWC peers, and last sea¬ son was named women’s out¬ door track and field Coach of the Year. Rouse has also been twice named NCAA District VI Coach of the Year in cross country. Rouse, a member of the NCAA Track and Field Rules committee, was in charge of administration of the 1990 Outdoor Championships held at Duke University in the spring. Among her other national committee memberships, she is on the site selection and women’s development committee’s for The Athletic Congress. Rouse was also the coach for Team USA in the 1990 World Cross Country Championships in Aix-les Bains, France. She was also the vice-president of the National Cross Country Coaches Asso¬ ciation. 118 Sports OMINATION ARKANSAS EARNS SWC ALL-SPORTS TITLE FOR 11TH TIME IN 12 YEARS “SWC CHAMPS: YOU NAME THE SPORT.” This bumper sticker said it all. For the 11th time in the past 12 years, Arkansas earned the Southwest Conference all-sports title. Arkansas won six outright SWC champi- onships, the highest total in school history. In 1988-89 the Razorbacks earned five outright titles and shared two others. Texas won the other three league titles in 1989- 90. Arkansas finishes totaled 24 points. Texas had 24.5. Low score wins. No one else was close. Texas A M was third with 40.5, followed by Houston with 42, Baylor with 47, TCU at 48, Rice at 50.5, SMU with 62 and Texas Tech with 66.5. The Hogs became the first SWC school to win outright championships in football, basketball and baseball in the same school year since Texas did it in 1973-74. The Razorbacks also repeated as SWC champs in cross country, indoor track and outdoor track. It was the third straight league track triple crown for Arkansas. Texas earned SWC titles in golf, tennis and swimming. The Longhorns were second to Arkansas in cross country, baseball and outdoor track. Texas finished tied for fifth in football, seventh in indoor track and third in basketball. Arkansas was fifth in swimming, sixth in golf and seventh in tennis. “We are honored to be all-sports champi¬ ons again,” athletic director Frank Broyles said. “It’s a tribute to our athletes and our hard-working coaching staff. Our fans have supported us in such a way as to allow us to complete nationally in every sport..” Along with being the second school ever to win football, basketball and baseball outright in the same year, Arkansas became the first school in SWC history to win back- to-back championships in football and basketball.

Boyer Schol¬ arship in the College of Business Administration was endowed with a $15,000 gift to provide an annual scholarship for a student majoring in manage¬ ment. Tom received his degree in business administration in 1964. The Boyers also endowed a scholarship in the law school named for Robert Boyer, Tom ' s older brother T doubt that their commit¬ ment as parents and to the University of Arkansas can be matched by anyone,” Melissa said. • It would be difficult to find two people more supportive of the University than Tom and Sylvia Boyer. At least that’s what Melissa Boyer, their daughter, claimed. Although Melissa might not be the most objective person on the topic of her parents, others must have agreed with her assessment when they honored Tom and Sylvia as the University’s Parents of the Year during Family Weekend Oct. 13-15. Melissa, a senior exercise science major, nominated her parents. The Boyers, residents of Amarillo, Texas, are both alumni of the University and Tom and Sylvia Boyer were named the Parents of the Year, after being nominated by their daughter Melissa. R.

Then we would go to the French Market, Jackson Square, Bourbon Street and all of those places to go shopping,” she said. ‘There are usually three parades a night. The last one is usually over at about 10 p.m. That’s when they throw the beads. “This year Dennis Quaid and John Goodman hosted the parade. After the two parades everyone ends up in the Super Dome for a huge party that lasts all night,” she said. ‘Tickets are around $400. There are usually a couple of big-name bands like Chicago or the Temptations that play. The governor and the mayor and everyone goes, but we didn’t get to go because of the cost.” Berner explained that everyone dresses up in costumes on fat Tuesday. “We saw transvestites, couch potatoes and one family was even dressed as crayons,” she said. Berner, who has been going to Mardi Gras for about seven years, said the thing she likes best is there is always something different. “We were all walking down the street and someone said, ‘Hey, it’s Richard Simmons!’ We all ran over to him. He asked us if we had a chaperone!” she said. • Kelly Ryan KIM Women exposing their breasts to crowds of strangers for plastic beads, pickpockets on the streets and parades that run into the night — these were just a few of the typical sights at Mardi Gras in New Orleans according to Kim Berner. And Berner should know. The senior physical education coaching major and Louisiana native traveled to New Orleans with 16 of her friends to enjoy the craziness. The group stayed at Berner’s home in Houma, La. , about 40 minutes from New Orleans. “The trip only cost $200. We each paid $98 for the plane trip and $ 100 for food, gas and alcohol,” she said. “We took a party van from Houma to New Orleans. It was really fun.” Berner, whose parents stayed Posing for a scrapbook photo, Kim Berner and her 16 friends enjoy the festivities of New Orleans Mardi Gras.

His weekly “Expletive Deleted” column sparked not only interest, but controversy. His subject matter depicted everyday situations, antecdotes from his personal life or com¬ mentary on world events — whether big or small. Fusco’s readers applied several labels to the highly read columnist, and frequently he was accused of being totally anti-establishment. Fusco disagreed. “It’s realistic that not everyone takes things seriously,” Fusco said defending his style of often showing important situations and events in a humorous light. Among the topics Fusco’s columns have discussed in¬ cluded fraternities, school sports and women — and in the process managed to outrage people belonging to all those groups. Fusco got his job at the Traveler after answering an advertisement during his freshman year for a writer who would do features and humor.

Fusco said he received a lot of unsolicited advice on how to write his column; however, he generally relied on his own ideas. It’s more of a creative process if I do it myself, he said. Fusco also claimed he didn’t pander to certain audience groups. He received the most reader response from a column on Fite Nite that wasn’t complementary of fraternities. For about a week he re ceived dozens of messages on his answering machine cussing him out. He also received death threats, but he said he just stayed on the phone to psyche out and intimidate his enemies. “I don’t hate Greeks just to hate them,” said Fusco. “I just think it’s a system that inhere ently has problems.” Fusco said he sees Greeks as people who are just striving for themselves — a sort of aristocracy. Although Fusco wouldn’t win a popularity contest among the fraternity members on campus, he did have a few fans. A suggestive valentine from one fan smelled of perfume and contained three condoms. The valentine was signed. Fusco said he would like to attempt fiction writing, and it would be a “dream come true” to write for Rolling Stone magazine, which he considers his bible for learning how to write. “I don’t like to think there’s nothing I couldn’t ever do,” Fusco said . “Once you think something is out of reach, then you have more to do.” • Liz Vanzant HEAD OF THE CLASS -I 9 « 9 WHO ' S W H O- • ALLISON DYKE, a member of Pi Beta Phi, was a journalism major.

P or better or worse Newlyweds cope with the stress of college and the demands of marriage for five years and knew a great deal about each other. They said the only difficulty they experi¬ enced was sharing the same bed. When one would turn over, the other would wake up. Both Chad and Michelle agree that being married is a lot like having a roommate. ‘The big difference is I didn’t have to pick up after my roommates,” Michelle said. Chad and Michelle said attending college does have positive influences on their marriage. “We have established goals which set us apart from married couples our age,” Michelle said. She said they have little in common with most of the couples back home since they have children already and are either working on a farm or in a factory. Both Chad and Mich¬ elle are business majors so they have many of the same goals. Michelle is majoring in com¬ puter information systems and Chad is in finance. Chad and Michelle are both are very supportive of the other’s career goals, and both are willing to follow the other in his her job placement. Oddly enough, the only advice the couple offered other young couples who were still in college and thinking about marriage was to wait until after college. Chad and Michelle said it takes a special kind of relation¬ ship to last through the tribula¬ tions of marriage along with the stress of college, and even though their marriage appears to be growing stronger while they finish college, the couple points out that not all young marriages could survive collegiate life. • Laura Mayhew THE § z z O C D Chad and Michelle Runsick said they didn ' t miss out on collegiate experiences by getting married. To capture the memory of their life together, they shop at Wal-mart for film. J. APPLEBY PHOTO Together college is better claim Chad and Michelle Runsick. Chad and Michelle, both seniors, have been married for a little over a year and they both agree their lives are easier now than before they were married. Michelle began her college career while Chad was finishing up high school in their home¬ town of Wynne. Although Michelle was nearby at Arkan¬ sas State University in Jonesboro, Chad rarely saw her during his senior year in high school. Michelle said she didn’t want to jeopardize the development of her independence by coming home a great deal during her first year in college. Besides, she was also very busy settling into college and sorority life. Today Chad still teases her about all of her “boy¬ friends” who escorted her to “those dances and parties.” Michelle only smirks at her husband in response and they both laugh. With three years of college finished for Michelle and one year completed for Chad, the couple decided to get married.

H ome sweet home Managing a sorority isn ' t easy, but Chi Omega ' s housemother loves her job Imagine being responsible for 145 girls and a house with three-floors and 40 rooms. Add to that the responsibility of meal planning and housecleaning and you have the demand ing job of a housemother. For many, the job would be too demanding and stressful; however, Bonner Allred, housemother at the Chi Omega sorority, said she loves her job despite the workload. However when she was first approached about the position, the University graduate and retired teacher, didn’t think taking the job would be a good idea. “I was a retired teacher having fun and I didn’t want to give up my freedom, n she said. After being asked a second time, Allred agreed to take the job. “I loved it from the first day,” Allred said. The women at Chi Omega call her “Mom Bonn,” a sign they love their house¬ mother as much as she loves her job and her “girls.” Allred quickly discovered there were many jobs that fit under the vague tide of house¬ mother. “Overall, I see the house runs smoothly. I order groceries and plan meals,” she said. “I am also in charge of luring and firing cooks, houseboys and maintenance workers.” In addition to keeping the house in order, she also serves as a hostess. “I am here during brunches and welcome the parents and anyone else who comes to visit our house, she said. Further¬ more, Allred represents Chi Omega outside the house, acting as a public relations person while carrying on responsibilities in the community. Besides attending church and University activi¬ ties, she is a member of the Housemothers Club. “The Housemothers Club is a social club comprised of all housemothers on campus. We get together and do things for the campus such as identifying trees,” she said. With community and house responsibilities Allred had little time left for herself. “I do get one weekend off a month, but sometimes 1 don’t take it. I don’t like to leave my girls,” she said. “I adore these girls. I am the one who is here to counsel if anything goes wrong,” she said. “I’ll always be here if they need me. • Kathy Green Although Mom Bonn’s job is demanding, she said it’s ’’her girls” that are the main reason she is a housemother.

Kama and Kaia, freshmen administrative management majors, are identical twins. The main way people could tell the Mountain Home twins apart is the birthmark on Kaia’s left leg. “Some of our friends can tell us apart by our voices or our eyes,” Kaia said. “Our friends have different ways of telling us apart.” The twins enjoy doing most everything together— mostly participating in sports activities. “We are on the swim team together. We run and play tennis too,” Kaia said. Kaia said that although she and her sister have some things which differ in their personalia ties, basically the two are the same. “Kama is more shy than I am,” Kaia said while Kama protested in the background. “People assume that we’re the same, and that we do everything alike. People group us as one and that bothers me.” “It’s nice to share a close bond like we do; we like all of the same things,” she said. Being on the same wave¬ length is also something the twins share. “Once in English we had to do a paper on any city we wanted to. It was so weird because Kaia and I picked the same city without even talking to each other first,” Kama said. • Kelly Ryan For Kama and Kaia Skoog being identical twins means a lot more than just two people sharing the same appearance, it means having having a lifetime friend.

However, behind the scenes other people contributed in significant ways to the success on the gridiron Senior Janelle Jones, a physical education major from Bentonville, was one of those overlooked, but essential contributors. As a student sports trainer for the football team, coaches and players agreed that she was a crucial part of the teams’ success. Mostly concerned with injury prevention, Jones’ job consisted of taping weak areas of the athletes’ bodies to protect them from damage. She also was trained in rehabilitation — the healing and strengthening of injuries. The relationship between a sports trainer and die athletes is very personal because of all the time spent with the athletes. This wasn’t difficult because Jones worked at all the team’s training sessions. And as a result, she had very little free time working six hours a day during training and the season itself with only Sundays off. Although she said the work was sometimes monotonous, players said Jones kept a positive attitude. Jones said the best part of her job was the relationships she built with the athletes and the positive feeling she received from helping others. Being a woman in the middle of a man’s sport could have been hard, but not for Jones. Jones said women first came on the University sports scene with Coach Ken Hatfield. She Janelle Jones, men ' s sports trainer, can hold her own when it comes to something she likes doing. T. EWART PHOTO said at first there was a lot of prejudice but this attitude has faded with time. ‘There are a lot of players who are hesitant at first about having a woman around, but after they find out the other guys are at ease around you, then they begin to trust you,” she said. “We get the same benefits, and no special treatment,” Jones said comparing women trainers to their male counterparts. Jones first became interested in training after injuring herself during a high school gymnastics meet and talking to the guy who wrapped up her ankle. After graduating, Jones will continue her education in graduate school at the Univer¬ sity of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. From there she plans to work her way into a head sports trainer position at a major uni¬ versity. “I’m really spoiled because we have such a winning tradition here. We’re like a family,” she concluded. • Shannon Moreley • SONYA MATTINGLY, a communication major, was an Associated Student Government senator.

S) pirited little piggy Successful athletic seasons give Hog mascot, fans plenty to cheer about “Wooo Pig, Sooie!” was a cry far from unfamiliar to any spectator at a Razorback game. But who initiated this battle charge? As Razorback mascot, Jeff Paul Wingo, motivated the fans to cheer the Hogs on to victory. The 21 -year-old junior from Morrilton and a member of Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity, was the life inside the renowned Hog suit. “It looked like a lot of fun. My roommate, who was the mascot before me, dared me to do it so I went for it,” Wingo said. “Plus, I love going to all the different places and cheer¬ ing on the Hogs.” Despite his travel sched¬ ule, Wingo didn’t miss much school. Wingo said the year included several memorable games including the Cotton Bowl, Southwest Conference championship games and NCAA tournament games. ‘The Final Four was the most exciting thing I’d been to,” Wingo said. The mascot for two years, Wingo said his success in motivating the fans came from his ability to make them laugh. “I make them laugh by falling down and being really active. I get really excited and just go out and do it,” he said. The kids that followed him around during games also helped. “I love the attention and it helps me do my job better by helping me get more moti¬ vated,” Wingo said. He points out that serving as mascot was not all fun and games. Hours of grueling practice were required to keep in shape. Wingo usually practiced with the cheerleaders for about two hours. “You have to be able to take the heat... literally. It gets extremely hot in the hog suit. Not only do you have to be athletic, you have to use your mind creatively to stir up the crowd, “ he said. “Basically you have to be pretty crazy!” • Trent Peetoom Mascot Jeff Wingo takes a thirst break on the sidelines during the Texas game and relaxes with cheerleading captain Jeanne LaGrone after the game.

But as one who does this, Colleen Pancake, a music composition major from Redondo Beach, Calif, said, “I’m pretty insecure. I’m very insecure. And this (modeling) helps me a lot. This lets me see myself objectively. “It can be really scary. It makes you want to change yourself... ‘Oh, God!

If you didn’t know it was me, you would say ‘Wow!’ 1 don’t think it looks exactly like me, but I can see myself in it. I think the breasts are a little bigger than mine,” Pancake said. Graduate student Dean Zimmerman created the sculpture. Pancake began her modeling career as a way of earning extra money in her first semester at the University. Responding to an advertisement for a model, she realized she could put the $5 an hour to good use. However, she said the the money wasn’t the only incentive. “First of all, you get to meet a lot of interesting people, for sure,” she said. “And, secondly, you learn a lot about yourself.” In fact, Pancake herself is a rather D. ALLEN PHOTO she shies away form close ups. Most interestingly, she speaks of her modeling only casually — as though it weren’t even a particularly noteworthy part of her life — but when conversa¬ tion turns to her musical work, she becomes downright efferves¬ cent. She models only occasionally now, but when she needs the extra money , she never has to advertise. “People just ask me,” she said. “Not too many people are willing to do it (model nude).” Pancake thinks this reluctance is because of the various insecurities people have about the work, which she feels she has overcome. “I run into people who say, ‘Well, I could never do that.’ And I say, ‘Well, you have a problem’.” Her parents, however, do not discourage her from the hobby. “I told my mother about it when I first started, and she’s like, ‘Well, whatever, Colleen’.” Though not uncomfortable with what she does, she sees a limit to what she would consent to for the sake of art. “I don’t do photographs. That’s just too real,” she says. But, perhaps as is obligatory for a model, she is idealistic about what she does. “I think the human body is beautiful just by itself,” she said. “I’m just hoping for the day people will come to accept the human body as beautiful, instead of trying to constandy covering it up.” • Brent Stephen Fusco • JOYCE ROBERTS, secretary of Kappa Delta Pi, was a recipient of the Henry and Stella Hotz Scholarship Award.

I feel I can do my best and do the most for the students in office,” said Munson. And what did Munson consider the biggest challenge he faced as president? “Informing the student of the activities of ASG and how it fit into the structure of the University was a continuous challenge,” he said. “This involved basically getting the students and faculty to listen to us,” Munson explained. Since the ASG president acts as the voice of the students, Munson said he constantly listened to the thoughts and concerns of his fellow students. “ASG is here to represent the students. The students come first, and sometimes the University forgets that. Obvff ously there would be no University if there were no students,” said Munson. Munson didn’t take all of the credit for the success of ASG over the past year. He said the other officers of ASG played an equally important role. Addressing ASG senators, Eric Munson, ASG president, explains the Do the Right Thing state wide rally. D. ALLEN PHOTO “Because they committed themselves to excellence, everything we did ran smoothly. Dedication makes things happen.” Munson ' s accomplishments as president made an impact on campus, but also across the state. He completed various projects including organizing the “Do the Right Thing” rallies across the state at various universities. He also served as a student representative on the search committee for the new UA system president. He was also the brainchild behind the gubernatorial debates on the UA and Arkansas State University campuses. The Republican debate, hosted on the Fayetteville campus, was televised state wide and was considered a success by the participants and candidates. As for his future, Munson hoped to apply at a law school in Arkansas. “We’ve built a strong foundation, and I hope the new officers will continue it.” • Trent Peetoom 144 People Undergraduates Tim Koch, Fayetteville Kimberly Kordt, Fayetteville Jennifer Kratz, Arlington, Texas Angelia Kremers, New Blaine Jolene Lakey, Springdale David Lane, Hughes Jeanne Larson, Mountain Home Christine Le, Bentonville Hoa Le, Stockton, Calif.

THE eave your message Answering machines control the lives of many student owners, phone victims “I’m sorry I’m not home, but if you leave your name and number at the beep I’ll return your call when I get home.” Once reserved almost exclu¬ sively for business use, answer¬ ing machines were becoming a necessity for b usy collegians. As a result, an incredible amount of creativity and time was invested in creating the perfect call-back message. Junior Chris Arnold came up with an interesting message, mocking the ordinary leave your name and number message. His message said, “Hi, this is Chris. At the sound of the tone please leave your name and number, height, weight, social security number, birthday, blood type...” It continued for several seconds, asking for almost every statistic imaginable, then ends with “and if you leave a message, make it short.” Callers reaching publications adviser Gary Lundgren’s home number were greeted by oinking pigs while his message said: “I’m sorry I’m away from the pen, but if you leave your name and number I might return your call. Students expressed mixed opinions on the answering machine craze. “I’m addicted to the phone,” said freshman Jason Puig who enjoyed receiving recorded messages. Another freshman, Dink Hailey, didn’t agree. “I hate answering machines. It takes too long to leave a message.” Freshman Kevin Khabecr said, “Answering machines can be annoying, but sometimes they have an interesting message. It goes both ways.” Answering machine owners also liked the privacy the electronic devices offered, allowing calls to be screened. “I’m sorry I’m not here. I’m at the library studying and will be back late.” This message easily impressed unsuspecting parents checking up on their collegians. Although mom and dad might have been fooled, friends realized an accurate message would say: “I’m sorry I’m not here, but I’m at the bars. Don’t try calling later because I’ll be passed out or otherwise occu¬ pied. Leave your message and I’ll return your call tomorrow when my head quits hurting.” • Once used primarily for business use, answering machines have found their way into the hectic lives of students. Students often used creative messages to entertain callers. D. SCOTT PHOTO Answering Machines 147 a the streets Time award winner goes undercover in a Dallas homeless shelter; writes article CHUCK o Shabbily dressed, unshaven and dirty, senior Chuck King spent two days in a Dallas shelter for the homeless. “It was incredibly frighten¬ ing ’ King said.’’But one of the most valuable experiences I’ve ever gone through.” This exploit, along with a straight-A record as a philoso¬ phy and history major, helped qualify King as one of 20 students chosen nationwide for the Time (magazine) College Achievement Award. In its March 19 issue, Time noted that King brings a wisdom far beyond his 22 years to contemporary problems. King’s findings on problems of the homeless appeared in a cover article in the May June 1989 issue of The Humanist. King slept in an old warehouse furnished with hundreds of cots. On the bed next to him someone was smoking crack, and across the room, a runaway was feeling lost and alone. The “common denominator” among the inhabitants at the shelter, which was run by Christian fundamentalists, King said, “was an incredible sense of despair that it was never going to get better. “People there didn’t care about the religious aspect,” King said. “They were looking for food and a place to sleep.” Dedicated to his mission, King took up the habit of Chuck King ' s insights on the homeless were published as a cover article in the May June issue of Humanist. M. HORTON PHOTO smoking for those two days to fit in. “In the homeless population cigarettes are a kind of cur¬ rency,” King said. “It’s a gesture of goodwill to give somebody a cigarette. It’s a good way to blend in and start conversations. “But seeing how people reacted to me was actually more important than talking to homeless people,” he said. King spent most of one night on the streets. “As long as I was just sitting on the sidewalk, it was fine,” he said. “But the minute I lay down, people would hurl insults. Anyone can sit on the sidewalk, but something about seeing someone sleeping on the sidewalk is more offensive.” What people on the street lack most, he said, is the support associated with a home. “Homeless doesn’t just mean being houseless or shelterless,” he said. ‘That can be taken care of — one would hope — through governmental or private channels. ‘The homeless issue raises much deeper ethical questions, such as how a whole segment of the population can feel left out of the democratic process. “If the government officials will just admit the problem is far more than providing housing, food and clothing, if they admit it’s a very deep social problem, then that’s starting on the road to solve the problem.” With the help of a Marhall Scholarship, funded by the British government, King will spend the next two years at Oxford studying for his master’s degree. After he completes the program, King said he will be doing what he does best — offering thoughtful solutions for today’s problems. • Karina Barren tine HEAD OF THE CLASS -I ( WHO’S W M O —■ • CONNIE THRELKELD, a Rhomate for Alpha Gamma Rho, was a member of Golden Key national honor society.

R. ROBINSON PHOTO -rated lecture Students learn all there is to know about SEX from prominent therapist The topic is still taboo for many people, but Dr. Ruth Westheimer certainly doesn’t have any problem talking about SEX. Westheimer, known to millions as Dr. Ruth, has traveled throughout the United States as well as the world giving controversial speeches on the three-letter word which is often considered a four-letter word. She brought her “Sexually Speaking” lecture to the University on Oct. 23 attracting a crowd of 2,800. “For a short, little German lady she sure knows a lot about sex,” said senior Carter Free¬ man. Junior Barry Love agreed. “I appreciated the way she could inform the audience,” said Love. “I liked her comments about ‘blue balls.’ In addition to sharing her sexual knowledge, Westheimer solicited questions from the audience. “The way she answered the questions was great. She didn’t make the students feel like total morons because they had questions about sexual activity,” said sophomore Tina Canfield. Westheimer said she consid¬ ers herself to be an educator and not a theologian or politician. After leaving Nazi Germany, Wes¬ theimer received a bachelor’s degree in psychology at the University of Paris. She later earned a master’s degree from Columbia Univer¬ sity. She was a professor at Cornell University and in those years never thought that she would be using the mass media to spread “sexual literacy” as she does today. Dr. Ruth’s first broadcast was an NBC radio program which aired 15 minutes after midnight on Sundays. Her television program, “What’s up, Dr. Ruth?” has reached a wider audience than her radio program. She jokes about the title by saying, “It has that double meaning.” Wes¬ theimer received a Cable Broadcasting ACE award for her efforts. Westheimer believes abortion should be legalized because she doesn’t want women to go back to the old and dangerous methods, but said she hopes her presentati ons will reduce the number of unwanted pregnancies. “If I can prevent one un¬ wanted pregnancy with what I’m doing, then I’ve done my job.” • Laura Mayhew • JOY WILKINS, an orientation leader, was a elementary education major.

B. AYRE PHOTO University Programs president oversees entertainment, events on campus JOB DESCRIPTION: Moni- toring a budget of $250,000, keeping extensive office hours and supervising an organization with at least six committees serving some 14,000 students. No, it’s not the job of an executive on Madison Avenue, but it was the job of University Programs president Allison Dyke. The position of president not only came with a large set of duties, but a great deal of responsibility. “It was a great experience, lots of fun, and I got to meet more people and get more involved,” Dyke said. A five-year member of UP, Dyke was instrumental in building the Student Program Council which provides social, cultural and educational entertainment and activities for the campus. Prior to becoming president, Dyke was a member of the Freshman Involvement Com¬ mittee, Redeye Committee and Special Events Committee chair. Being selected president was an involved process itself. Dyke had to go through two lengthy interviews, one comprised of non-UP people and the other made up of program council members. In addition, she was required to submit a 300-word essay about her goals and reasons for applying for the position. Dyke, a senior journalism major from Little Rock, was required to keep 10 office hours per week, but it worked out to more like 20 once she met with the executive committees and officers. In fact she had so many activities she had to keep an extensive schedule book and was hardly ever seen without it. Dyke said one of her major accomplishments was turning the attendance at Redeye into a college crowd instead of high school students. The activity card and the information line were also implemented. One of the UP events that Dyke enjoyed was Dr. Ruth’s visit. “It turned out to be so successful and she was so good to work with,” Dyke said. • Liz Vanzant UP President 153 . V«V ' r ■ : • . A ; .

It didn’t hit me until I went to get the trophy,” stated team leader, George Captain, when he spoke of his surprise at the Army ROTC team winning the Third Bri¬ gade annual Ranger Challenge Shootout. The Shootout, a weekend competi¬ tion among nine-man ROTC teams, tes ted physical stamina, military skill and leadership ability. Eighteen schools from Louisiana and Arkansas met at Camp Robinson in North Little Rock, Nov. 10-12, to compete in events of marksmanship, weapons assembly, one-rope bridge construc¬ tion, grenade assault course, orienteer¬ ing and a 10-kilometer forced road march. Captain, a junior, related how tired he and his team members were after finishing the events, but when Captain went to retrieve the trophy for his team, he said, “I lost that tired feeling after that.” Winning the third brigade competition gave Arkan¬ sas along with ASU, who placed second place, a chance to compete in the regional competition at Ft. Riley, Kan. Arkansas placed seventh at regionals against 10 teams representing nine states and Puerto Rico. Most of us got a pretty good understanding of what non¬ commissioned officers go through. Mike Anderson David S tender and dale Sophomore Bob Laster was part of the team that competed at regionals. ‘The competition was a lot stronger. The schools that won had been coming to Region for four years or so,” said Laster Laster said he was not disappointed at placing seventh. “We did better in the events at Region than we had at Brigade. We improved tremendously,” Laster said- “We’ll do a lot better next year now that we know what to expect.” In addition to the competition, eight ROTC members accompanied by Maj. Joe Leidy took a field trip to Ft. Leonard Wood, Mo. to experience an orientation of engineering pro¬ grams that the Army offered. “Most of us got a pretty good understanding of what non-commis ' sioned officers go through,” said cadet Mike Anderson, a junior.

And efforts were launched by a special committee in Little Rock to construct a memorial flag pole. “We hope that this is successful and that the flag will fly in Little Rock in support of our endeavors,” flight commander Kris Mayer said. No other organization in the area had worked as hard to help the POW MIAs, so Messenger said she believed she was lucky to help. “It was important for us to spread publicity,” Messenger said. “I enjoyed this service project. “We tried to get people informed about them over there,” Messenger said. “We hope to get them back to their families.

With Nolan Richardson ' s team nationally ranked throughout the season, and often in the top- 10, the cheerleaders had an easy time firing up the fans. M. HORTON PHOTO HOG -WILD There were two sets of champions on the field this year. Pom Pon and cheerleading squad members attended a preseason camp and competition in Tennessee and brought home a total of nine awards — the most in the school’s history. The Pom Pon squad earned a Superior trophy for individual compe tition and a first place trophy in the fight song competition. The Cheer Squad placed first in sideline competi¬ tion and was awarded a trophy for being the most collegiate squad. Even mascot Jeff Wingo brought home the highest awards in the mascot division including Camp Champion. It wasn’t all awards for the groups. It took plenty of hard work before and after the camp in preparation for the real games to gain crowd involvement and enthusiasm. While everyone else was watching his favorite show, taking a break from studying or just bumming around, the spirit groups were preparing for an upcoming game. Senior Elizabeth Hatfield said the squad practiced two hours a day, but she would not have had it any other way. “I had so many experiences I would never have had,” Hatfield said. “I met lots of people and became more disciplined. It was worth it.” The spirit groups were handed a real treat when they were able to Shane Jones Even though it was hard work, it was worth it when we were in front of 57,000 people doing a show we had practiced all week.

The Razorback Revue was just one of the events during Greek Week. “A bunch of us got crazy in some groovy ’60’s outfits and had a blast,” freshman Barbara Anderson said. “We should have been awarded something for our outrageous outfits.” Greek Week, April 2-8, was designed to bring the individual fraternities and sororities together with all kinds of fun events. Delta Upsilon freshman, Barry Nolan said that his house was confident in the week’s competition. “After the Scholars Bowl which is a quiz like Jeopardy, we knew we had a chance to win,” Nolan said. “We were proud that we repeated the win from last year.” After the talent show and the Scholars Bowl, Greek organizations participated in sporting events like volleyball and a 5k run on the morning of the Greek Olympics.

Greek Week 163 TRAVELER SPECIAL ISSUE HAD THE AIDS ISSUE Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome is a plague the Traveler staff tried to bring to the forefront of the students ' attention. With the scare of AIDS, condom ads, once a taboo, were a common¬ place. D. ALLEN PHOTO What Have 5u Got AgainstACondom? It was sort of like opening a box of Cracker Jacks, only the surprise had a message and it wasn’t a toy. The March 14 issue of The Arkan¬ sas Traveler , a special issue devoted entirely to the subject of AIDS, featured a condom inserted into 7,000 of the 12-page newspa- pers. mSS And as a result, the newspaper made the news as well as reported it. And, almost everyone had an opinion on whether the staff should have provided the condoms. Critics said the condom giveaway was a gimmick, yellow journalism and showed poor judgment. Traveler editor Ray Minor dis¬ agreed. Minor said the point of the edition was to educate and inform. ‘There’s a difference between sex education and sex training — this is AIDS education.” The paper devoted nine articles, an editorial and a column to Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. Staff writers interviewed people with AIDS, wrote stories about treatment and counseling and addressed miscon- Kim Jester There’s a difference between sex education and sex training — this is AIDS education Ray Minor ceptions about the disease. The journalists encountered a variety of problems ranging from keeping the names of AIDS victims confidential to finding students on campus who would give their opinions on AIDS and AIDS prevention. “AIDS is definitely an impor tant issue. By doing research, 1 found out that it was a much bigger deal than I thought,” reporter Terry Wood said. Wood wrote tvv° of the AIDS-related articles. Wood also pointed out th although AIDS is a serious problem now, the number of victim 51 likely to increase since the HIV viru 5 has an incubation period of two to seven years. “We have to take greater precau ' tions about sex now. You need to - PLEASE TURN THE PAG Stuffing condoms was 0$ half the work the Traveler staff had to do before distributing the AIDS issue Jared Jones, Lisa Heggestad, Ray Mifl and Tacy Minor, along with other statf members, stuff condoms in the March Traveler . v D.

Health precautions. If you ' re going to do it, you might as well be careful. PAUL DREZEN Traveler 165 COVERED know who’s doing what and with whom — people need to practice safe sex,” Wood said. It was Minor’s decision to insert the condoms. He thought of the idea after reading a Parade article about a company donating condoms to college campuses. Minor called the Safetex Corporation and asked for 5,000 to 8,000. He received 7 , 000 . “Students already know about sex — it happens. This is not a gimmick to promote the Traveler or myself. It is a device to bring awareness about AIDS,” Minor said. The condoms were inserted in the papers attached to printed cards that said: ‘The Arkansas Traveler asks you to have a safe spring break.” The cards also carried the message: “This could save your life. Please be careful.” The controversy started even before the paper came out when word about the Traveler ' s plans leaked out. The Associated Press carried the story along with television stations from Litde Rock and Tulsa. All 8,000 papers were picked off the racks in two hours, much faster than the norm, and not just because the condom was inside, but also to see what the fuss was about. As the Traveler hit the streets and headlines, the phone lines in the office started to ring with opinions — both for and against the Traveler ' s decision. Journalism professor Bob Douglas was one of the people who disagreed with Minor’s decision, not because he thought is was offensive, but because he believed it wasn’t responsible journalism. Douglas said that the newspaper “was using a gimmick to create news rather than report it.” Douglas, the paper’s faculty adviser who critiqued the paper for the editors, resigned from the volunteer position as a result of Minor’s decision. Minor said he thought Douglas’ resignation was to prove a point to younger journalists that he didn’t approve of that kind of journal¬ ism. Students generally weren’t really that fazed about the entire matter. Sophomore Tina Canfield reported seeing students picking up the issue and being too embarrassed to pick up the condom which fell to the ground. Senior Pat Sandlin wrote a letter to the editor about a student who told him the free gum that came in the Traveler didn’t taste very good, but it sure was great for blowing bubbles. Although the AIDS issue was one of the major campus news events of the year, other noteworthy events were happening with the student newspaper. Gary Lundgren, Student Publications business manager and adviser, said the paper posted a $10,000 surplus by the end of the school year. The paper also purchased a Macintosh desktop publishing system and moved the entire production of the paper, except printing, from the Printing Services offices to the Traveler office. The implementation of in-house production also greatly reduced the cost of producing the newspaper. A much larger staff than previous years also made the job of publishing the newspaper easier. At times, as many as 30- 40 staff members worked on the paper. In previous years, only a handful of people did 90 percent of the work. “This was the biggest accomplishment. — getting more students involved instead of just becoming a little clique,” Minor said. From the controversial AIDS issue, to implementing in-house production and increasing student participation in the paper, The Arkansas Traveler was not only covering the news, it was making it. • Liz Vanzant ARKAMSAS TRAVELER.

To do that, you have to go to where the money is, and that ' s the Legislature,” said Eric Munson, ASG president. Approximately 200 students registered to vote and more than 2,000 cards were sent to state legisla¬ tors urging them to increase funding for higher education. Although considered successful in attracting attention to the problems facing higher education, the October legislative special session netted no immediate increase in funding.

Other accomplishments of ASG included successfully working to increase the amount of time students had to drop a course. With the ASG’s support, an extra five days were added to the drop period after the Campus Council limited the drop period to five days without a “W.” ASG senators also worked to get teacher evaluations open to student access, enacted legislation for addi¬ tional parking and established a Minority Achievement Recruitment team. The ASG sponsored the Republic can gubernatorial debate, televised across the state from the Fayetteville campus. And students were able to give input on issues and concerns when officers held Forum meetings in the dining halls on campus during the spring semester. The first thing one saw when entering the ASG offices was a sign that read, “Students Come First.” And, the ASG’s actions throughout the year spoke louder than words. • Liz Vanzant Kersting, Jill Killen, Beth Lilley, Joanna Long, Lisa Long, Danita Mance, Lee Maris, Rod Martin, Mark Mayfield, Mark McCarty, John Mehrholz, Craig Merell, Andy Meyers, John Monroe, John Moore, Mindy Moore, Eric Munson, Mark Myers, Sterling Neblett, Andy Newburg, John Olaimey, Tommy Overton, Chip Paris, Julie Patter¬ son, Sam Perry, Maria Phillips, Michael Pickens, Wendye Power, John Powers, Heather Quinney, David Ray, Allison Rivers, Rod Roark, Chris Roberts, Yolanda Robinson, Lee Rudd, Brantt Rydell, Mohammad Sayeed, Kathy Schieffler, Carol Shroyer, Chris Snodgrass, Scott Stokenberry, Tanya Strecker, Scott Tabor, John David Walt, Leanne White, Tammy Widener, Chas William¬ son, Kim Wood, Daniel Wooten, John Yates, Craig Zediker. 168 Organizations Penciling in his vote, Scott Stone voices his opinion to legislators about higher education.

Who’s responsible for planning them? University Programs is the group that made it happen. This council of students provided social, cultural and educational entertainment and activities each year. These events were open to all UA students and the community as well. This year, University Programs coordinated several major events. The fall semester started off with “Wel¬ come Back Week ’89.” The week kicked off on Sept. 5 with a shrimp and oyster bar on the Arkansas Union Plaza. Entertainment was provided by “Variety in Motion,” a two-member, circus-like performance company. In October, University Programs brought the Beatles back with the Fab 4 look-alikes — “1964.” The rock band fired up the Union filling the Ballroom to standing room only. After the holiday festivities were over, and the books had to be opened again, Redeye ’90 broke the winter blahs. With a recording booth, a caricature artist, a Photo Star studio and a comedian, Redeye ’90 was a great success according to organizers. One of the funniest things was when the hypnotist hypnotized the feature twirler and made her dance, said Allison Dyke, UP president. She looked like a Solid Gold dancer. University Programs was also re¬ sponsible for the new Freshman In¬ volvement Committee. This group scheduled on-campus activities for freshmen in order to get them in- The Bob Hope Miniature Golf Tournament was one of many events at Redeye 90. Using the theme Holly¬ wood on the Hill, the activities not only included miniature golf, but a Star Trax recording booth, a caricaturist, a hypnotist and others. W. SPARKMAN PHOTO Ray Cook One of the funniest things was when the hypnotist hypnotized the feature twirler and made her dance. She looked like a Solid Gold dancer. Allison Dyke volved on the campus. Some of the activities included a pep rally, a scavenger hunt and cookout, a talent show, a lock-in and a reception for professors and students. One of the regular educational entertainment features which Univer¬ sity Programs sponsored was a series of lectures by prominent speakers. This year’s main speakers were Betty Friedan, founder and first president of the National Organization for Women and the founder of the National Women’s Political Caucus; Jeff Weingrad, author of “Saturday Night: A Backstage History of Saturday Night Live;” Benjamin Hooks, executive director for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; and Dr. Ruth Westheimer, the nationally recognized speaker on “sexual literacy.” University Programs added the video theater in the Arkansas Union, and the price was right. Some of the movies presented, without an admis¬ sion charge, were ‘Tequila Sunrise,” “Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure,” “Biloxi Blues,” “Her Alibi,” and the widely acclaimed, “Gorillas in the Mist.” Even in the whirlwind of activity, University Programs was able to pause and remember a former director. The Arkansas Union Gallery was renamed the Anne Kittrell Gallery, commemo¬ rating her memory. Kittrell served for 16 years as campus activities director before her death in April 1988. The Anne Kittrell Gallery opened for art exhibits including Art Cartoons and Comic Strips, Commitment to Vision, Black Awareness Month Art Exhibit, Women’s History Month exhibit and the Art and Architecture Student Exhibition. Concerts, barbecues, lectures and Redeye — University Programs made it happen. • Laura Mayhew University Programs 171 -RESIDENCE HALLS CELEBRATE WITH MONTH OF- ACTIVITIES On campus students discovered a month crammed full of opportunities to say Aloha at Luau on the Hill or take in the “Rocky Horror Picture Show.” The month of activities was spon- sored by the Residence Interhall Congress to promote Residence Hall Month. One of the biggest events every year was Luau on the Hill. Approxi- mately 500 students attended the Luau. Reid, Fulbright and Hotz hall governments, co-sponsors of the event, magically transformed “The Hill” into a Hawaiian paradise. The students were served pizza, mock tails and Cokes from a grass hut, while a D.J. from Century Sounds provided the dancing music. “Luau cost about $2,000 and about a $1,000 alone was spent on t-shirts which were given away to workers and contest winners,” Margaret Hackett, hall manager for Fulbright said. The “Rocky Horror Picture Show” was another popular event sponsored by RIC. Due to bad weather the event was almost cancelled, but the rain held back and allowed 150 students to cram into the Greek Theater for a night of crazed antics. Hours of prepa¬ ration went into this activity before the students were even able to view the film. “Before the event members, of RIC rented the show from Films, Inc. and a maintenance crew from Residence Life and Services had to build a movie B art Hodges _ • _ “We had a great time putting on the event and we even managed to raise about $150 for a housekeeper whose house had burned down.” Kevin Mason screen to stand on the Greek Theater stage,” Hackett said. The event was co-sponsored by Gladson Ripley, the honors hall, and RIC. A number of students were given paper bags filled with props such as toast, hot dogs and newspapers by members of both organizations. Other students came prepared with water pistols and water balloons. And even a few students showed up in costumes resembling characters in the movie. The majority of the students recited lines and songs during the movie. On April 20, sister and brother dorms, Futrall and Holcombe spon¬ sored the Wedington Follies, a tradition with the two organizations. The event took place at Lake Wed¬ ington and offered plenty of activities to entertain the residences. The site contained picnic tables, a baseball diamond, swings, volleyball nets and other games set up by members of the hall governments. “The event was a high success,” said Debbie Spencer, Futrall Hall manager. The last event scheduled during the month was sponsored by Yocum Hall — Yocum Pigout. The students devoured 200 pizzas. Although the pizza was popular, the main attraction was the dunking booth featuring R.A.’s and hall managers. Other events held during Resi¬ dence Hall Month included R.A. Ap¬ preciation Day, GG’s non-alcoholic bar and RIC Open Office. • Anita Lofton RESIDENCE INTERHALL CONGRESS. Front Row: Shay Bozman, Clark Crone, Don Matthews.

After five minutes, blaze was under control. No injuries occurred. D. ALLEN PHOTO Due to fire and renovation, one residence hall closed and another embarked on a new kind of life. At 9:06 p.m., Jan. 22, the men in the Garland Street fire station were interrupted by the sound of bells that a reported fire at 532 N. Garland. A fire had broke out in Holcombe Hall. Although the firemen had the blaze under control by 9:11 p.m., the fire managed to damage the contents of room 330 and caused minor smoke and heat damage to the building. No injuries were reported and no estimate of damages were available. Terry Lawson, a captain with the Fayetteville Fire Department said an overloaded extension card, which caused an electrical short, is the blame for the fire. After the fire and another similar one, Residence Life and Services planned to close Holcombe Hall for renovation during the entire 1990- 91 school year. Concerned residents of Holcombe, the smallest male residence hall on campus, proposed making Futrall Hall a coed resi¬ dence hall. After much discussion and debate, the plan was accepted by Residence Life and Services director Robert Brisiel. “Even though a lot of people may be unhappy about the decision, Bob Brisiel did what he thought would be the best for the most people involved,” said Jacob Wells, a Holcombe residence. Holcombe and Futrall are very tightly associated and are sometimes referred to as “brother and sister halls.” By making Futrall coed, traditions will continue. “Now the traditions of Holcombe and Futrall will continue. Needless to say, we are all very excited,” said Wells.

Students lived in a world filled with color. However, for the women of the Alpha Delta Pi sorority, every two years they have to experience an event without any color — just black and white. But that was all right with the Alpha Delta Pis. The women sponsored their semi-annual Black Diamond Formal on Feb. 2 at the Springdale Holiday Inn. Between 150 to 170 alumni, members and guests attended sporting a wide array of black and white outfits — each one a different shape and different material, but all the same color. ‘The purpose of the banquet and dinner is to recognize the seniors for the last time and to celebrate the rituals of the dia¬ mond to our sorority,” said Stacey Spence, events coordinator. After the dinner the Alpha Delta Pis were entertained by comedian Buzz Sutherland, and then danced the night away to the tunes of the Video Machine.

President George Bush and first lady Barbara Bush were not the only ones fighting abuse. During the NCAAW, the Chi Omega sorority was a big help in this fight against substance abuse. The week was packed with events to encourage a drug and alcohol free life. The week was kicked off by the group from Ashdown High School, who incorporated music, dancing, drama and rap sessions in its per¬ formance that highlighted the magic of living drug and alcohol free. The next day, on Oct. 17, Billy Ray Smith, a linebacker for the San Diego Chargers and a former Razorback player, spoke on campus. He talked to athletes during the afternoon and then spoke again at 6 p.m. in the Union theater to other university stu¬ dents. For students interested in campus-wide substance abuse prevention, the Ashdown All-Star Pride conducted several workshops in peer education. Lectures were only part of the fight against substance abuse. The week also featured such events as an information fair, a brown bag lunch and a banner contest. The banner contest allowed living groups across campus to design a banner on a full-sized bed sheet, stressing the importance of National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness Week. “The week was intended to create an awareness, to get people to think about their values and attitudes about drinking,” said Deana Cox, Chi Omega charity social chairman. • OCT. 16, 1990 Ashdown Pride, a group from Ashdown High School, performs during Alcohol Awareness Week.

In an attempt to increase aware¬ ness of AIDS around the campus, the Delta Gamma sorority hosted the Phi Mu sorority to view an AIDS awareness tape on Nov. 15. “We believe AIDS is a growing concern, and it is important for the women of the ‘80’s and the college students to be informed,” sopho¬ more Kelly Stoner said. “We hope people will think about how fatal AIDS can be.” After the video was shown, situations concerning interactions with AIDS victims were discussed. After listening to the situations, participants were asked to stand on one side of the room or the other to express their opinions. After taking their stand, the women then shared their opinions. Stemming from the Delta Gamma’s “Well Aware” program, Stoner incorporated this AIDS video into a “Well Aware” session. “Well Aware helps inform women of issues like date rape. So, this was a part of that,” Stoner said. Phi Mu freshman, Colleen Mangelsdorf, thought the opportu¬ nity to learn about AIDS was beneficial. “It was a good video,” Mangelsdorf said. “It was casual, but we did get more informed about AIDS.” Because the AIDS issue is becoming more and more a part of American society, freshman Stacy Tubbs believed the video helped spread the awareness of AIDS. “The video showed the truth of what can really happen,” Tubbs said. “Someone needs to help inform, and if Delta Gamma can help, then it is a start. If we can help one person realize that safe sex is important and saves lives, then it is worth it.” • NOV. 15, 1990 The Delta Gamma sorority invited the Phi Mu sorority to watch and discuss an informational video about AIDS.

Red Davis Day is a 30-year tradition in which the fraternity sets aside a special day to entertain local underprivileged children. The party consisted of refresh¬ ments, games and a visit from the fat man himself — Santa Claus. “Each boy and girl got to sit on Santa’s lap to tell him what they wanted for Christmas and after¬ wards got a gift,” said Sigma Alpha Epsilon president David McNeil. McNeil said Red Davis Day gave the children a chance to have a Merry Christmas. It also gave the members and pledges the c hance to be big brothers and play games with the children. “All the children were really happy and felt cared for,” said McNeil. NOV. 18, 1989 A popular theme for parties was Toga and Tequila. Among the organizations sponsoring such a party was Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity.

The activities started on Oct. 5 and lasted through Oct. 7. As the women of all the partici¬ pating sororities gathered to compete, the 1989 Sigma Chi Derby Day party began. Because the sororities banned some events associated with Derby Day due to the issue of sexism, the men of Sigma Chi dressed up in “Drag” and cheered their team on to victory. “Derby Day was one of our main parties this year,” Brian Brooks, president, said. “Derby Day consisted of contests waged between the sororities.” Believed to be a timely tradi¬ tion, the women of each sorority scan the crowded sidewalks filled with students watching for a young Sigma Chi man sporting a Derby hat. Much to the delight of the unsuspecting man, the women steal the hat right off his head. And much to the delight of the women, stealing the hat brought them one point closer to becoming the winning sorority. On Saturday, the Sigma Chi members put the women to the test. Skill and strength were a must in events such as tug-of-war, pyramids and other games and contests designed to find out which sorority had what it took to survive the fun of Derby Week. • OCT 7, 1989 In a role reversal, Lloyd Gillison dressed the part of a Chi-O cheerleader while Vince Floriani grabs a handful of ’’her” balloon breasts.

The founder and first Grand Master was Dr. Charles Richardson, who had origi¬ nally been initiated into Omicron Chapter on the campus of Emory and Henry College, Emory, Virginia. The original group was comprised of six men: Charles Richardson, Founder, John Clinton Futrall, Carl Qinton Miller, William Allen Crawford, William Shields Goodwin, George Bernard Pugh. The distinguished careers of these men reflected the wisdom of Dr. Richardson ' s selection and established the respected position which Xi has maintained for the subsequent one hundred years. Dr. Richardson went on, in 1895, to become the foundered of Chi Omega Fraternity, a women ' s fraternity which has become the largest in the United States. He also served Kappa Sigma as a national officer. Grand Master of Ceremonies, from 1898-1906. Mr. Futrall, educated additionally at the University of Vir¬ ginia, served for twenty-six years as President of the University of Arkansas, bringing it from its small beginnings as Arkansas Industrial University to the major institution of higher education in the state. Mr. Crawford enjoyed a distinguished career with the Little Rock School System. Mr. Goodwin served in the United States Congress from 1911 through 1921. During the first ten years, the frater¬ nity expanded its membership to include, among others, George Vaughan (1894), later a judge; John E. Martineau (1894), later Governor of Arkansas; Samuel B. Hill (1894) later a Congress¬ man and member of the United States Board of Tax Appeals; Marcus Lafay¬ ette Bell (1895), later Vice President and General Counsel for Rock Island Rail¬ road. The decade following the turn of the century produced similar excellence —Rhodes Scholars Neil Carothers (1903) and Grover C. Morris (1905) and businessman Thomas J. Williams (1910). Mr. Carothers was the first Rhodes scholar from the University of Arkansas and Mr. Williams was named in 1954 the Kappa Sigma International Man of the Year for his philanthropy in estab¬ lishing cultural and scientific exchanges between his adopted country of Argen¬ tina and other countries. To comply with rules forbidding secret societies. Kappa Sigma members deferred wearing badges and met as the Richardson Club for several years in the early 1900s. As the University of Arkansas flourished under the leader¬ ship of President Futrall, so named in 1914, so did the fraternity. Struggling against problems posed by efforts to relocate the University, efforts to maintain academic standards, and efforts to quell counter productive secret societies, the fraternity continued to recruit members and to find residences large enough to accommodate the brotherhood. Originally meetings were held on the fourth floor of Old Main and initiations took place on the top floor of the Ozark Theater Building. In 1915, the chapter rented a house at 803 West Dickson. Later, it moved to the Arkan¬ sas Building at 111 Mt. Nord Street. In 1919, Xi moved to a house owned by W. K. Askew, a member of the fraternity. Because the rumors of moving the University had ceased for the most part, and because of the growing size of die chapter pursuant to the returning of veterans from World War I, it was decided that a permanent location should be purchased. Following the first statewide meeting of the fraternity, in 1921, a frame house at 711 West Dickson was purchased for $11,000, and Xi became the first fraternity to own and operate its own house on the campus. The Chapter continues to occupy that same address. In 1922, Crip Hall, a member of the fraternity who was active in campus activities, was responsible for creating the annual event of Homecoming for the University. He later served as Secretary of State for twenty-five years. The death of Dr. Richardson in 1924 saddened the fraternity, locally and na¬ tionally, as well as the University and Fayetteville community. During the summer of 1927, the chapter was suspended by the Univei sity for breaking rush rules. Because large pledge class had been committe the group erected a sign in the yard naming the house the Boozman Boari ing House and continued without a damaging interruption to the continu ation of membership. Under the leadership of Tom Cutti and Doug Smith and others, the currt chapter house was built and it was dedicated during Homecoming week end of 1931. That year Hal Douglas served as president for the Student Senate and Blue Key, Jay Dickey was business manager for the Razorbacks During the 1930 ' s the fraternity thrived, increasing its involvement of campus and in athletics. Notable wa J James Warren Benton, an All-AmeriC‘ football player in 1936-37 and 1938 winner of the Houston Post Trophy Most Valuable Lineman. By 1939, the twenty-sixth year of Futrall ' s tenure i president and the year of his death in automobile accident near Winslow, h Mr. Douglas and Mr. Dickey had attained leadership rolls on the Unive sity Board of Trustees; thus, men of Kappa Sigma oversaw the transition from Mr. Futrall ' s presidency. The early 1940 ' s saw the continual of the successful growth of Xi Chapt £l including such members as Universe Trustee and prominent attorney Lou’j Ramsey, Judge William Enfield, Cha f ' Massey, President of March of Dime 5, 1984 Kappa Sigma Man of the Year architect Fay Jones, who received th £ prestigious 1990 American Institute cl Architecture Gold Medal for Lifetin Achievement awarded by President George Bush and England ' s Prince Charles in Washington D.C. Additional notable Xi Chapter Alumnus include : Charles Jones, National Sportscaster for NBC, Jerry Jones, Owner Dallas Cowboys, U.S- Congressman Ed Bethune, U.S. Con ' gressman Bill Alexander, Arkansas , Arkansas Gazette editors.

Williams and Robert Fussell. During the years of World War II Membership was continuous but Regular, the lowest chapter size topping to ten. The illustrious war r ecord of Colonel William A. Hamberg (1929) was among those which brought heroic distinction to the fraternity. He earned the Distinguished Service Cross P r Extraordinary Heroism, the Silver tar for Gallantry in Action, the bronze Star for Personal Bravery, and the Purple Heart for wounds received. Nineteen members of the fraternity lost their lives in service to the United States during World War II. After the war, in order to accommo¬ date the large numbers of returning Ve terans to the University campus, Xi a dded an annex which increased the j pacity of the house to 75; however d ause of the explosive growth in P°stwar enrollment, up to 125 men were Accommodated. The chapter size rose to 25 during the years immediately blowing the war. The boarding house ne t to the chapter house housed an Additional 50 and the basement of the U- Theater housed another 30. Clyde °tt (1946) brought world fame to Xi Chapter and to Arkansas by winning a fdver medal in the 1948 Olympics and setting two world records, to crown a Pliant athletic career. The decade of the 1950 ' s saw contin- u ed progress within the fraternity and ln fraternity ' s contribution to University life. Members were elated by ue 1951 election of Tom Cutting, a Native of Fort Smith and an Xi alumnus, as the National President of Kappa 8ma. He served in that office until y 53. The chapter rolls continued to be ar ge because of servicemen returning the Korean conflict and continuing neir education with the help of the G.I. dl. The swelling of the chapter size §ave nse to the phrase, Fabulous X, a a n e still revered by alumni and actives , Ry the end of the decade, chapter size a d begun to decline from the postwar Urnbers, and the Interfraternity Coun- ! began limiting the number of pledges lo Wed per year. By 1960, the size of e chapter had receded to approxi¬ mately 125 men, seventy-five or eighty hom lived in the chapter house. 1964, a fire which began in the Asement and spread upward caused extensive damage to the original por¬ tion, or main rooms, of the chapter house. That year and the next were taken up with the extensive and costly repairs. Members were disappointed when building codes prohibited the chapter from replacing the well, a four story open spiral staircase long enjoyed by the actives. In 1965 Xi Chapter initiated the second of two honorary members. The first, that of President Jefferson Davis of the Confederacy, had occurred in 1881, when the Xi charter was held by Vir¬ ginia. Following the young businessman ' s death in a yellow fever epidemic in Memphis, the officers of the fraternity approached the aging Davis and offered honorary membership. The offer was accepted. On the occasion of the seventy-fifth anniversary of the founding of Xi Chapter on the Arkansas campus, U.S. Senator John McClellan accepted a similar offer and became the second honorary member of Xi and of Kappa Sigma. Two of his sons, then deceased, had been active members of Xi during their college careers. Senator McClellan, as President Davis had before him, welcomed the opportunity to participate in the experience of Kappa Sigma brotherhood which his sons had valued. The first half of the decade of the 1970 ' s was given over to dealing with the deterioration of the chapter house, culminating in the movement of the chapter in 1972 into a house at 10 N. Garland during the 1973-74 year, as the chapter resided out of the chapter house for three years. The efforts of the actives who organized a Give a Week pro¬ gram in which they spent weeks travel¬ ing to visit alumni in an effort to raise funds with which to save the house, led to increased alumni support including a reorganizing and relocating of Xi corporation to Little Rock which then oversaw a two-phase rebuilding pro¬ gram. The restored chapter house, completely financed through donations from past members and friends of the fraternity at a total cost of $250,000, was dedicated in 1976 during the Homecom¬ ing weekend. Although the years spent outside the house resulted in fewer actives and pledges, the numbers began to grow immediately as the impetus of the building program carried over into enthusiastic participation in all phases of fraternity and campus life. Charles B. Whiteside III (1960), as president of Xi Corporation since 1974, has been instrumental in the continued success of the chapter. He served as Grand Master of Xi during his under¬ graduate years as well as president of the 1963 senior class. He has continued to lead the actives and to teach them the traditions which have been the hallmark of the chapter. The chapter voluntarily adopted a Zero Tolerance policy, which involved commitment by members to abstain totally from drug use in any manner which could be construed to involve Kappa Sigma. In addition, the chapter recruited D. Malcolm McNair, Jr. as Alumnus Adviser. Mr. McNair (1969), an attorney in Fayetteville, has helped bring a new distinction to the group and has led the chapter to reclaim its former success. McNair was named in 1987 the Outstanding First Year Volunteer Alumnus. In addition, the Chapter won awards for community service and campus involvement. In 1988 Xi Chapter won the Boyd House Award for the finest and best maintained chapter house among all the national chapters. The result has been a tripling of membership during the years from 1986 through 1990. In 1989 at the Grand Conclave in Orlando, Florida, McNair was named the Alumnus Adviser of the Year, and the chapter again won awards for community service and campus involve¬ ment. In addition, Xi was awarded a special plaque by the national fraternity for all-round excellence. In March 1990, its centennial year, Xi hosted a Multi-District Conclave on the Arkansas campus which was attended by more than 250 Kappa Sigmas from seven states. On April 6-9 the Centen¬ nial Celebration was held in Fayetteville and was attended by over 300 Alumni and their wives from around the coun¬ try and was considered a great success. The present chapter size is 140, com¬ prised of 120 actives and twenty pledges. Thus, Kappa Sigma will enter its second century in a position of great strength. Its many outstanding alumni will see to the continuation of subse¬ quent generations of loyal and true Kappa Sigmas who will help in the good work of enabling men who attend the University of Arkansas to experience the brotherhood which was predicted in 1890 at the first chapter meeting.

Ten seconds short of touchdown the powerless plane headed toward the airport, as passengers braced for an emergency landing, the right wing dipped, caught the ground and sent the plant somersaulting across the asphalt, breaking into large fiery sections and sending parts of the fuselage hurtling into a cornfield. Of the 296 people board, 186 survived including the cockpit crew. “There is no hero,” said United pilot A1 Haynes. “Just a group of people, four people who did their jobs.” On Oct. 31 Haynes climbed into the cockpit of another DC-10 and was back on the job.

You are the best adviser a yearbook staff could ever have — that is when you are in town. Just kidding. I know I gave you a hard time about traveling all over the country helping other staffs at workshops, when instead you should have been helping us get started (and finished), but I always knew the Razorback staff was lucky because we have you all the time. Thanks for your tremendous help, sleepless nights, advice and especially your friendship. MOM DAD And you thought last year was bad! This year, I bet you wondered if you even had a son. I know I was hardly ever home this past year, but it was worth it, don ' t you think? Thanks for your continuous love, putting up with my bad moods and sleepless nights. I know you will never understand the entire concept of putting together a yearbook or why at times I cared more about yearbook than other things in my life. Well I can ' t answer that, but I love you both very much. RHONDA OVERBEY I know a number of people that said we couldn ' t get a book out working together. Well, we showed them. You were a great Managing Editor and friend. For someone who knew nothing about yearbook, you surprised me with all that you really knew and learned throughout the year. Thanks for your help and for being such a good listener to my problems. LIZ VANZANT We have certainly had our ups and downs.You were the best copy editor the Razorback has ever had. You managed to juggle life, school and yearbook, and survived. I knew you could always do it. Good Luck, we ' ll miss you. Thanks, I owe you. THE RAZORBACK STAFF Thanks for all your help. Without the help of the staff the book would have never gotten off the ground, let alone finished. Thanks for a job well done. SUSAN ALDERSON To Taylor Publishing ' s best rep: We have certainly been through a lot in the past five years.

BACK TO HILL HALL we went. The year started off just like always — climbing the three flights of Hill Hall stairs. We weren’t in any big hurry. We knew what awaited us be¬ hind the locked door of Hill Hall 309 — a year filled with headaches, countless hours of hard work and most of all a lot of fun. Like the saying goes, “If you wait long enough, something is bound to happen.” And it did — finally. In January or early February we decided on a theme. “We’re Turning Some Heads,” com¬ plete with a $5,000 spinning wheel endsheet, proved to the staff that some things were indeed worth waiting for. Just like most other yearbook staffs, Razorback editors were famous for crazy expressions and cliches, and these expressions told the story of the yearbook year better than any copy block. “Where does the time go when you’re having fun?” was heard a number of times throughout the year. Well, that was a valid question when September slipped into May and not single page was at the plant. We started to ask ourselves just what was accomplished during the year. I started to think the staff had one year-long “out of body experience.” The next month and a half was spent in limbo between conscious and unconscious states in front of the Macs as 170 of the 256 pages were completed and shipped to the plant within a month. One thought dominated our brain as we camped out in Hill Hall — Sleep. But no! The yearbook took first priority. Like money, great yearbooks don’t grow on trees (another cliche). It took many long hours, hard work (more cliches) and a trip to most every restaurant in the Fayetteville-Springdale area to create our masterpiece. Don’t get me wrong, we did have some fun. However, most of the good times happened far away from the office in places like New Orleans, New York and Dallas. These out of town adventures proved to be learning experiences in not only new yearbook techniques and trends, but also in life. In New Orleans on Bourbon Street I learned that the female impersonators had bigger breasts than the real women did in the sleazy strip joint we ventured into. In New York everyone on the staff knows what I learned. And in Dallas, on the Taylor plant tour, I realized I was better off not knowing what really went on in a yearbook plant. At the end of the tour I was terrified. After seeing the place, I couldn’t understand and didn’t really want to understand, how a book ever came out of the place. But I guess they know what they ' re doing. (I hope.) With classes almost ready to start for the new school year, and these pages ready to be shipped out of my life, complete sentences and paragraphs are asking too much, but these random thoughts do capture some of the highlights of the year: Hill Hall SUITE 309; Job 9100; PMS 200 (What exactly does PMS mean?); let’s go to the AQ Chicken House; if I ever see that Jim Williams I’ll put my hands around his throat; Macro- bating (a term used when one works on a Macintosh computer and enjoys it too much); the 1989 Razorback complete with the baby blue cover and the grammatically incorrect theme (thanks a lot Chad); ‘Tree Huggers hate us;” the 1990 front endsheet (a.k.a. “the wheel fortune”); the countless hours it took just to construct the example spinning wheel for the endsheet; the coundess hours spent sitting around spinning the endsheet when we got it done; another trip to the AQ Chicken House; headaches; sleepless nights; out of body experiences; nervous break¬ downs; the famous LM Memo¬ rial Hole in the Traveler office (Thanks, Dub, for the photo¬ graph); ‘The Homewrecker” (I’m glad my little accident with my car going through the neighbor’s house amused everyone); the Christmas mailer (because of my stupidity the labels were not in Zip Code order and the yearbook office was turned into the U.S. Postal Office); yet another trip to the AQ Chicken House; losing everything on the hard drive when the Mac crashed; long walks to the Pitt; conflicting office organizational charts (Gary, I’m your boss); Rhonda and her captions; a disappearing photo editor; Rhonda and Liz fighting over Liz’s desk; yet another trip to the AQ Chicken House; the expression “Right Fast” (yes, Gary, that is another “Southemism”); and finally some important advice only the staff will understand — “Never be caught in the closet alone.” I look back on the year and ask myself, “Was it worth it?” “Yeah,” I guess so. Sorry if I sound hesitant. But, it is August and I am still working on this book. But, I guess we did have fun after all. See you next year. For some weird reason I will be back on the job.

SPARKMAN PHOTO TURNING SOME HEADS IN a blur of non-stop activity, another year ended as abruptly as it started. As the frenzy of final exams hit, students packed boxes anticipating a much-needed summer vacation. For appro ximately 1,110 students, thoughts of the May 12 graduation cere¬ monies made it difficult to concentrate on finals. And even after the campus quieted down for the summer, the peacefulness didn’t last long. Following weeks of specu¬ lation and discussion, the University joined the Southeastern Conference, breaking a 76-year charter membership in the Southwest Conference and leaving behind an all-Texas conference with a questionable future. The SEC move, which will increase yearly athletic revenue by roughly $3 million, set the stage for major collegiate conference changes not only in the South, but across the nation. And once again, the events on Razorback Hill were constantly TURNING SOME HEADS. WE ' RE TURNING SOME HEADS Cliff-hanger.

Both readers and judges gave the new format a thumbs-up rating. The Razorback received a Gold Crown from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association and a Pacemaker from Associated Collegiate Press.

COLOPHON The 1990 Razorback was pro¬ duced on five Macintosh SE computers and a LaserWriter II NTX equipped with PageMaker 3.0, Microsoft Word 3.01 and FreeHand 2.0. Taylor Publishing Company of Dallas printed Job 9100 from the staffs camera-ready mechanicals. Most gray screens were added at the plant. The staff used 31 flats of spot color through¬ out the 93rd volume. any other yearbook. ‘The awards were a nice re- ward. With the changes we made in the book, production was so much slower and more stressful, but the national recognition makes the work even more worth¬ while,” said Douglas Scott, 1990 editor and 1989 managing editor. Chad Dillard served as editor of the book. Feedback from yearbook pur¬ chasers was positive, but the col¬ ors of the cover proved unpopu¬ lar. “Pastel blue with pink and mint green didn’t please a campus wanting Razorback red,” Scott said. “This year we attempted a DOUGLAS SCOTT Editor schooboriented cover that still incorporated current yearbook trends.” The improvements in the year¬ book and some financial changes were necessary for the book’s sur¬ vival. Throughout the ’80s sales slowly dropped from 5,000 to 1,500 copies. Poorly produced and late arriving books were a problem until the 1988 edition when the book arrived in October as prom¬ ised, following a February arrival of the 1987. The 1989 book ar¬ rived in October also. For the first time in five years, the 1989 edi¬ tion deposited leftover funds in the yearbook reserve fund rather than using the reserve to cover cost overruns. The addition of a business manager adviser for Student Pub¬ lications also helped the staff with its efforts to revive the book. “When I arrived at the begin¬ ning of the year the editors told me they wouldn’t settle for an improved book — they wanted one of the top books in the coun¬ try,” Lundgren said. “And, they did just that. Night after night, day after day, the editor and managing editor often worked as late as 3 a.m.” Producing the book on the Macintosh in a cam¬ era-ready format provided the big¬ gest challenge, but ultimately pro¬ vided the greatest reward. “I hated using quad-paks; but I was reluctant in doing the book on the Mac and pasting-up the pages myself,” Scott said. “Now I don’t know how we ever did the yearbook without doing the pro¬ duction work ourselves on the Mac. It is so great to see the type¬ set page before the proofs come back.” To further complicate produc- LIZ VANZANT Copy Editor HILL HALL Hell Hole GARY LUNDGREN Adviser tion of the 1989 volume, the staff only owned one Macintosh and walked four blocks to the Journal¬ ism Department to use a laser printer. In 1990, the staff shared five computers and a laser printer with the Traveler staff. In addition to having more equipment, the staff continued to make improvements. For a dif¬ ferent look, spot color was used throughout instead of four-color. The front endsheet, with the spin¬ ning wheel, also took hours to prepare. “ W e spent countless hours and thousands of dollars on the end- sheet, but I think it will be worth it,” Scott said. “As far as I know, such a technique hasn’t been used in a yearbook RHONDA OVERBEY Managing Editor anywhere. And now I know why. “I think the ‘We’re Turning Some Heads’ theme fit this year at the University. I hope the read¬ ers agree,” Scott concluded. • THE RAZORBACK PRODUCED BY THE STUDENTS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS Editor Adviser Douglas Scott Gary Lundgren Managing Editor Copy Editor Rhonda Overbey Liz Vanzant _ Photo Editor.
