IdriM Several hundred students endured cold and heavy rains Saturday during Yofest to see the Marshall Tucker Band play. Due to equipment failure and wet weather the band could only play two songs. "We had no choice but to cancel the show when the down pour and lightening came," Director of Student Programs Dave Robertson said. "The risk wasn't just to equipment, but I couldn't take the risk of people getting hurt around the equipment," Robertson said. Robertson said the power lines con­ necting the sound board and the stage could have potentially electrocuted students right near the stage if lighting had struck. "The band (Marshall Tucker) wanted to continue playing but some Internships Available An Appalachian Summer is looking for interns who are dependable, team-oriented and able to work under pressure. Internships will last approximately 10 weeks (mid-May through mid-August). Applications must be received by May 1. For an application or more information call Carrie Lindsay, General Manager, An Appalachian Summer (262-6084). Dreams And Soul Travel Class irreplacable sound equipment was damaged and there was no way it was going to work," Robertson said. Sidewinder was the only band able to play at Yofest. The Elements, a reggae band, later played free at H'Appy's. Ten students volunteered to work at H'Appy's for the concert after set­ ting up all day Friday and Saturday for Yofest. "The dedication (of A.P.P.S. members) was unbelievable, just so other students could have a good weekend," Robertson added. Partial Refunds are available start­ ing today through Friday for those students who have their ticket stubs. A $3 refund will be given to students at the Student Union ticket booth from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. "We (Student Programs) still feel the individuals who supported Yofest didn't get all they came for. We feel we should give a partial refund. It's not possible to give a complete refund because it would destroy us financial­ ly," Robertson said. For those students who left before the show was officially cancelled and whose stubs were taken are ineligible for a refund. "No refund will be given unless students have ticket stubs. This is re­ quired by state auditors," Robertson said. Students will be reimbursed through the Student Activities fees which is also the A.P.P.S. budget. "By cancelling we didn't save a penny, financially it was a killer. In the long run it will result in fewer pro­ grams • and less money to cover shows," Robertson said. Student Programs would like to have more outdoor concerts if a con­ cert dome could be constructed in the future. Eckankar is sponsoring a free dreams and soul travel class. Class will meet every Thursday evening through May 3 from 7-9 p.m. in the Student Union room 112. All those interested are invited to attend.

One particular student wanted action taken against an anonymous "cooler smasher" who allegedly dove on to styrofoam coolers filled with beer smashing them to pieces. Unfortunately the culprit was not apprehended by ASU Security or Boone police, and even managed to steal a few beers. However, some students cheered a man on as officers chased him up "Suicide Hill." Officers were also on hand to search coolers as people entered the celebra­ tion and to check for ID's.

YOFEST RAINED OUT: Despite the showers, some students managed to stay reasonably dry under umbrellas and towels. These three girls were among the few who braved the bad weather and still con­ tinued to celebrate spring time Appalachian style. Although the headlining band, The Marshall Tucker ASU's sewer rate increase may cost students an additional $20 in fees. ASU had a sewer service rate increase last October that doubled what the university previously paid The increase came about when the Town of Boone's Public Services adopted a new rate structure. Under the new system, some residents will pay less while others pay more, depending upon usage. The university previously paid $77,000 a year for sewage service. The increase will raise the amount to $188,000, causing a 144 percent increase in cost. The rate restructuring is expected to af­ fect ASU students who live off-campus. This would depend upon individual resident usage. Off-campus students with low water usage will likely not be affected. "ASU uses only sewer, they have their own water," Director of Public Services George Suddreth said. Suddreth said this is why ASU's rate in­ crease looks bad on paper. During a March Town Council Meeting, Vice Chancellor for Business Affairs Ned Trivette made an appeal to the Council to reconsider the university's position. "I feel obligated on behalf of Ap­ palachian State University and the students to ask you to take another look at the issue," Trivette said. Mayor Pro Tempore Velma Burnley said that it is costly to read meters and replace pipes at the university. She added that everyone needs to pay their fair share of sewage rates. "Our argument is that the university is such a large volume user in a small area. It does not cost them (Public Services) the same amount of money to provide that ser­ vice to an equal amount of homes," Associate Chancellor for Business Affairs Lynn Holaday said. Trivette said that half of the cost increase would have to be supplied by the students. This will be reflected in future resident hall housing fees. The rate increase will cost the Residence Life System $80,000 annually. This calculates to roughly $20 for each campus resident. Town Councilman James Smith also an ASU Mathematical Science Professor said that the council plans to review ASU's sewage rate at a future date. Holaday said that even if the university's rates are lowered, the increased costs would still have to be paid through next year and housing fees w ill not be increased until 1989 or 1990. Academic advising may need changes Business By PAULA DICKINSON AypdKtlM SMfT WrtMr The Student Welfare Committee of the Faculty Senate met with the Student Com­ mittee of Academic Affairs to discuss con­ cerns about the academic advising depart­ ment. Chairman of the Student Welfare Com­ mittee Jack Holgate said the major con­ cerns expressed were that there was not enough one-on-one advising to students and not enough attention given to nontraditional students. Holgate said in the set time frame, usually three weeks before registration, there is not enough time for all students to get adequate advice about what classes they should take. "Like in the communications depart­ ment, there are 700 majors and that's too many students for them to get through ad­ vice in that length of time," Holgate said. Holgate said he would like to see students assigned to one advisor for the entire four years they are in college. Peter Petschauer, also of the Student Welfare Committee said non-traditional students do not fit into regular categories. Non-traditional students are those that are not in the mainstream, such as older students, exchange students, and transfer students. "It easily happens that a student has to go to several departments to see about their courses," Petschauer said. He said he was especially concerned with students not getting enough one-on-one ad­ vising. In some departments, such as business and communications, advising is within groups instead of individually. Petschauer said he did not approve of this process. "Group advising is such a contradiction to education and what ASU stands for," he said. Students also seem displeased with group advising. "It didn't do me any good, hardly more than what is in the catalog; but we were told we could go see an advisor individually if we needed to," business student Mindy Noble said. Coordinator of Academic Advising Ran­ dy Swing says if students are persistent enough they can get help. He says problems occur when students come to their advisory appointments unprepared. "Career decisions are not made in 20 minutes with an advisor," Swing said. He suggests students look at the catalog and make out a tentative schedule before speaking with an advisor. The student and advisor can then spend more time talking about future goals. Swing further suggests that students make use of the on-campus services available to them. The Peer Career booth in the Student Union, the Career Planning and Placement Office in 1G Greer, and the Counseling Center located near the post of­ fice are all helpful in making plans for a career. "Undecided students should see an ad­ visor and begin carer planning as soon as possible, even at the beginning of a semester," Swing said. "I would like to see students being assign­ ed an advisor at the General College level (freshman and sophomore). Then the ad­ visor would know the student and his or her problems, and once they have made a deci­ sion about their major they could be assign­ ed to faculty at that department," Swing said. Swing adds that across the nation the ad­ vising system is changing and many colleges are putting more money into advising. "It is the time for advising to grow," Sw­ ing said.

If the referendum passes, $9.95 million of the funds will go toward the building of a second high school and SI-6 million will go toward renovating the existing high school. Watauga High School, which is the only existing high school in Watuaga County, is not able to meet the population's needs. If the bond referendum fails it will take approx­ imately six to seven years to accumulate $6.5 million for expansion. The high school was constructed to accommodate a maximum of 1240 students. Membership for the 1987-88 school year is 1415 students and the projected enrollment for 1995-96 is 1544 students. According to an editorial in the April 6 Watauga Democrat the main issue facing these problems is one of money: "The county simply cannot atford to build another high school under existing financing methods, despite an increased commitment by the county to financing the school's maintenance and construction needs. A bond issue is the best alternative; just as it's difficult for most people to pay cash for a home, it's difficult for a local government to build a multi­ million-dollar school without borrow­ ing some money." If the bond referendum does not pass, it is believed the alternatives for financing will not be attractive. The board of education would then have to expand Watauga High School to meet state standards. This would cost an estimated $6.5 million and re­ quire several changes: The addition of acres of land, 21 additional classrooms, enlarging the cafeteria, media center, art and music areas and enlarging and updating the vocational shops. universities. Only 254 of those members are accredited. The Walker College of Business was accredited in 1976 for its undergraduate program and reaccredited in 1981 for the undergraduate and graduate pro­ gram. The college was placed on proba­ tion last year and given three years to increase the rate of publication by faniltv members and to place more faculty with doctorates in specific areas. "If you don't have scholarly output by your faculty, your graduate pro­ gram in the future won't be as strong as it needs to be," Dean of College of Business Dr. Paul Combs said. "We didn't agree 100 percent with their criticism, but we knew faculty needed to be productive. We had a lot of people in their first, second and third year and they were on track." he added. Combs said the college hired new faculty members as enrollment grew and to make up for turnover. Combs added that new faculty sometimes takes a couple of years to become established and begin scholarly work. "Any program should be constant­ ly trying to improve itself and we have been doing that," Combs said. "Our program is stronger by having the ex­ perience." In recent years the college has ex­ 23.272 23,070 33,865 19,620 29,946 9,809 20,383 10,713 11.662 30.847 11,444 22.834 23,664 17,066 18,187 28,122 15,450 12,372 37,642 35,608 35,650 35,010 34.304 34,863 34,920 11,444 29,658 19,402 18,595 11.444 Accountant Actuary Advertising Account Executive Bank Officer Biologist Broadcast Newscasters Broadcast Newswriters Broadcast Technician Buyer Chemist Commercial Artist Commissioned Officer, US Military Computer Systems Analyst Conservationist Dietician, Clinical Economist Editor, Motion Picture Editor, Print Engineer, Aerospace Engineer, Civil Engineer, Electrical Engineer, Industrial Engineer, Mechanical Engineer, Nuclear Engineer, Petroleum Fashion Designer Geologist Home Economist Hotel Manager Expansion of the existing high school would also require bulding an auxiliary gymnasium and additional locker rooms and the removing of substandard classrooms. If the bond referendum fails it will take approximately six to seven years to accumulate the $6.5 million for ex­ pansion. In addition to this, if the referen­ dum does not pass alternatives may cost taxpayers an additional seven cent tax increase.

Last month at Gallaudet University, the federally chartered liberal arts college for the deaf, received world wide press as idents participated in protests in an stui att< attempt to have a deaf president lead their institution. Their argument was heard, and their stand, by measure of results, was a successful one. 1 The situation at Gallaudet Univer­ sity somewhat mirrors a situation Gallaudet and the problem here at ASU provide us with some insight into the past and the future. As Coleman McCarthy wrote, "in the long tradition of organized non­ violent protest," Mahatmas Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr. taught that if your cause is just as strong as your grievance, then that force, if applied non-violently, is an argument for reform that no opponent can hold off. It is only a matter of time before your adversary realizes he must deal with you." We can learn a great deal from our protests and our arguments. However our intention when arguing our case should be to bring the other side to the table, not to it's knees. The inner workings of ASU's administration is not the issue. Nor is working against university officials by any means a purpose. The point is simply that students should have the equal opportunity to make crucial decisions about the university which they attend. At many other schools, the students are the powerless majority ruled by the powerful few, the board and administration. Yet this is not the case at ASU. With one exception, each and every one of the university officials the Student Affairs Commit­ tee has dealt with has been more than willing to listen to and consider stu­ dent input.

When ASU Security made pro­ posals in an attempt to remedy the clustered parking situation, many students seemed to be baffled that such proposals were made without taking them into consideration. Two university officials addressed an appropriately hostile student senate, and entertained questions about the parking situation itself. However many students were only capable of complaining about the proposals, or criticizing the administration for a lack of compassion for the students. Complaints and criticism were not the remedy; alternative proposals and new ideas were needed. Out of the public outcry came the Student Security Committee, a 15-member panel which addresses the needs and concerns of the students. Maybe both the situation at The restaurant, hotel and resort management program and the master of science in the accounting program are first in North Carolina. The Small Business Institute offers counseling for disadvantaged and elderly people. The college also offers management development programs for people in business and industry.

Would you like to make new friends and experience a different culture first and? If you answer yes, then maybe you should join the Peace Corps. Last week, two Peace Corps recruiters visited ASU. They were here for Government Affairs Career Day. Lynn Ross and Doug Tickner, both former Peace Corps volunteers, came to ASU to ask skilled, caring people to join the organization. "We need people with leadership 'kills, who are able to work well with others," Ross said. She added that volunteers with degrees in education, engineering, biology, chemistry and agriculture are especially needed to fill Peace Corps positions. "The usual amount of service is 27 months. Three months of training and two years of work in the country you have been assigned," Ross said. She went on to say the training covers language and skills that one needs in the country. Peace Corps volunteers live at the same economic level of their hosts, and often, they live with a host fami­ ly. They receive a monthly allowance, and after their service time is up, volunteers receive a $200 a month readjustment payment for every month of service. The Peace Corps also has complete health coverage for volunteers while in their service country. And the organization publishes a newsletter for return volunteers that lists occupational and educational oppor­ tunities. For over 25 years, the Peace Corps has been striving towards three major goals. These goals are: to help people meet their needs by teaching them skills; to give a better understanding Peace Corps volunteers recruit new members. Comedian with a marker Caricature artist shows students their humorous side By MARY K. MILLER Appalachian Staff Writer To help kick off the 1988 Yofest celebration last week, an artist from Caricatures Unlimited was on campus entertaining crowds with some unusual portraits. Caricaturist Richard Hill worked his magic on paper for over four hours effortlessly turning any willing (and paying) student into the caricature of their choice for only a dollar. Students could choose any pose or imaginary situation, or let Hill use his own artistic humor. For instance, he drew two unsuspecting girls heading for the beach to "check out some tan lines." Hill enjoys entertaining a crowd with his work. From the large crowds he attracted last Thursday in the cafeteria lobby, he didn't have any problem keeping ASU students in­ terested. "I try to do something that will be fun," Hill said. "Drawing (caricatures) is like telling a joke—you want to keep the spec­ tators interested." The key to his work, he said, is speed. Although he completed a single color caricature in somewhere around five minutes, some students waited (often impatiently) over 30 minutes to have their caricature drawn as a Yofest '88 souvenir. ple in the college market are disap­ pointed or offended with his humorous drawings. "You have to watch the humor in small, private colleges," he said, "but they usually know it's all in fun." Hill is the owner of Caricatures Unlimited, and employs anywhere from eight to 15 caricaturists year round. Some artists expand on the ar­ tistic aspect of caricature while others emphasize the humor. Depending on the personality of the artist, some get quite expressive. Hill also has an amazing photographic memory that enables him to render a caricature after look­ ing at a person one time. While draw­ ing, he maintains eye contact with his "We consider ourselves sit-down subjects only to acknowledge their comedians to a certain degree," he presence. said. While Hill used his own reserve His photographic memory comes in sense of humor to entertain ASU handy when he is requested to draw a person in their dream without a students, many of the artists that work for him put on a show for their photograph. "I can draw just about anything," audience, telling jokes and keeping spectators involved in their work. he said. Caricatures Unlimited also has a Whether students wanted to be pic­ tured looking like Racquel Welch or successful mail-order and seasonal driving a Corvette, Hill said few peo­ - resort-type business.

The Peace Corps is invited to foreign countries in need of help. So the prospect of danger is small—but it is there. "The Peace Corps is really con­ cerned with personal safety. They have an emergency system that can get you out of the country and home in about 48 hours, depending on the country you are in," Ross said. She added that people of the town or village one is posted in, know what is going on. "Generally, the people expect you. They help you and look forward to your coming. I can't imagine them wanting you to leave," she said. Ross was posted in Sri Lanka from October 1984, to December of 1986. She taught English, and trained other instructors. Doug Tickner was posted in the Central African Republic for three years. He taught for two years, and then instructed health education for one year. "Teachers are very respected in all of the Third World cultures. And the students are not used to questioning authority, so it is a unique thing for them to be able to ask questions of the instructor," Tickner said. He added that people would give him things to show their appreciation. "They would give you presents, and you had to take them whether you needed them or not. You didn't want to offend your friends and hosts by refusing their gifts," Tickner said. Ross had the same experience in Sri Lanka. "I was amazed at how much they respected me. They respected the fact that I lived like they lived. Everyone wanted to help me," Ross said. There are difficulties with living in another country. "You do get lonely, and you miss your family. You get frustrated with the lack of materials and with the bureaucracy. My first year, I felt like I was swimming upstream," Ross said. She went on to say that the second year was a lot easier, and more productive. "The first year is an adjustment period, it builds on the second year," Ross said. The Peace Corps educates people so they can help themselves. Most volunteers are about 29 years old, but 15 percent are 50 and older. Students, minorities, and older people can join the Peace Corps—as long as they are qualified. And they will teach you the skills you need. "The Peace Corps is really concerned with per­ sonal safety. They have an emergency system that can get you out of the country and home in about 48 hours, depending on the country you are in." Lynn Ross Peace Corps volunteers have a sense of adventure, and ihey want to help others. Working in the Peace Corps gives one a sense of accomplishment. It also gives valuable work experience in one's field. "You learn how much you can do with limited material. Being in the Peace Corps builds confidence and patience. It's a great learning experience," Ross said. If you are interested in learning more about the Peace Corps, call 1 -800-424-8580, extension 26 for more information. Newland rocks the Duck Pond field By MICKI SALTZ Appalachian Staff Writer End the spring semester with some sun, fun and food. It's all happening at the Duck Pond Field in front of Newland Residence Hall on Saturday April 30. Newlands Right to Rock will be a smaller version of Yofest. Beginning at 10 a.m., Ranger Rick and the Lost Guides will be crankin' up the day, followed by five more bands. Each group will play about an hour, making the air waves vibrate with their own brand of diversity. These groups will play in the follow­ ing order: Blantant Disregard, Burn­ ing Giraffe, Fear and Loathing, Alligators, and Daddy's Little Beer Drinkers. As Newland rocks, Spring Fling sponsored by A.P.P.S. will be offer­ ing games and refreshments. Have you heard of or played airball volleyball? If you haven't come on out and learn the ropes. It doesn't cost anything except maybe a little un­ dignified falling about. An extraspecial surprise game will cost a mere .25'. Come and watch the fun and if air ball seems too hairy, get a good tan. After you work up a healthy ap­ petite, fill your stomach courtesy of Food Services. Bring your mealcard, and eat and drink to your heart's con­ tent. Alcohol will not be allowed since it is a university function. Don't let this turn you away, though. The bands, crowd, and games offer a lot of variety and excitement. Last year started the beginning of what might come a tradition in Newland Hall. Kim Gray, last year's RSA president, put it together and received great turnout for her efforts. This year the thanks go to April Duela, RSA president, Susan McKenzie, RD of Newland, Kim Gray, and everyone in the RSA organization at Newland. Plans were started in December for another Newland bash and in January the work began in earnest. "It's great to finally see it come together. It's going to be a beautiful day and great fun, so everyone come out and enjoy it," McKenzie said. The combined teamwork of the RSA in Newland and the bands who volunteered their time, speak of the earnest dedication to Newland's Right to Rock. Transitions can be a part of your life By AMY VADEN I to 71W Ap Transitions are periods of time in a person's life where they come to turn­ ing points on the path of growth. A transition is a natural process of disorientation and reorientation which occurs between situations, rela­ tionships, and identities. This process consists of: Appalachian 1.

Li'l Dino Subs recently opened next to the Klondike Cafe, across the street from the ASU baseball field. From the looks of it, the new establishment is going to give their next-door neighbor a run for their money. Li'l Dino Subs has a pleasant atmosphere. They offer a nice setting inside (including a T.V.) and a large patio deck for their customers. Li'l Dino Subs is home of the "Original Philly."

Many people, during this period, feel like they are falling apart and the truth is THEY ARE I The person you used to identify yourself with is changing and you feel lost, confused, and unsure of who you are. This time period of having no identification causes you to feel vulnerable and empty. Some of our resistance of transitions comes from fears of the emptiness between the old and the reality of the new. However, this emptiness or neutral zone that we experience is the natural result of the Wellness Center ending process, for example, when one leaves school for the summer, changes relationships, or graduates. We should not try to escape or avoid the neutral zone because it provides: See TRANSITIONS Page 8 �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY, APRIL 26, 1988 SUMMER JOB OPPORTUNITY Student Publications The Office of Student Publications seeking a graphic designer/layout artist work 15-20 hours a week this summer ( several important University publicati0t Previous layout experience is „ required, but prefer an IET or coi merical art major.

I had just leted my senior year in high comP Stool, finally found a girl that accepted me for ME, and was a happy individual. I had it all except for one thing-success! Everyone expected me to have success. To obtain success j w0uld have to go. Like most, 1 didn't want to go, but they came anyway • just after lunch they burst through the front door. There was no time for ma to hide. I could not find the escape ladder that my mother had helped me build- I was trapped by society or perhaps it was reality. Well, whichever, I was confronted and found guilty. I decided to go with the Nazi storm troopers that had burst through my father's home. It was my decision ((K) I could have chosen to die. Rather, I chose life. Or, did I? They loaded us into cattle cars just as they had loaded the Jews more than 40 years ago.

They ran under the tram and up the hill. As they were reaching the crest of the mil, two shots rang out. The men fell to the ground, dead to society. A s range silence fell over us and we knew that we had arrived. One of the officers assembled us into rows and welcomed us as "future leaders of America and perhaps, the world. ' We were told that we would be required to study, learn, and expand our minds. This didn't seem so bad and I decided right then that I might just 'fit in.* That night I slept well. Yet, unknown to me at the time, it would be my last good sleep for quite a while. We were awakened at four in the morning and allowed to dress.

Classes began at six, and we were beaten and tortured all day long with their theories, ideologies and doctrines. After being sent to solitary confinement for volunteering infor­ mation to aid class discussion; I learned that we were here to learn, believe, and accept only their theories. We were not supposed to contradict them. This is when I rea­ lized that to 'live,' you must conform! I thought that the power elite might let me go if I acted as if I believed in their ideals and was a good camper. Therefore, I began to listen and became programmed for 'success.' I decided to go with the Nazi storm troopers that had burst through my father's home. It was my decision too. I could have chosen to die. Rather, I chose life. Or, did I?

L'il Pino'v Everyone has problems with end­ ings and new beginnings. As much as we want to make a new beginning, there is some part of us that resists because we fear this change will destroy the ways in which we established our security. This inner turmoil in our lives may be stirring up trouble in a relationship, it may cause some people to be defensive and easily angered, some people may fall into depression, and others become con­ fused and unsure of what they want. However, we must realize this is a temporary state that is natural and needs to occur so we can come to what is next in life. Taken from Transitions by William Bridges.

Probably not, but the once proud organization has hit upon hard times. Only five years ago, the Orioles were world champions. Now the O's find themselves with little young talent, a huge payroll, and the worst record in baseball. Everyone in Baltimore knows what the club has to do to get back on the track in the AL East; the Orioles are going to trade Cal Ripkin for at least four, good, young players. Naturally, the O's would like to put someone else on the block, but when one has no talent, one must make sacrifices. The more suitable choice would be Eddie Murray. With his ridiculous salary and problems with the front office, the one time all-star is a liability to every team in the league. Even if the AL was weak in first base talent, Murray would have a hard time finding a new home. • « • y Apps track team capped of rt the end of a spectacular season with an outstanding performance and first place finish at the Southern Con­ ference Outdoor Track Tournament this weekend. This team performance included winning 11 or the 18 events, setting nine new conference records at the meet and three new school records. The top three finishers in each event received All-Conference honors, and the Lady Mountaineers again topped the conference by tallying 34 honorees. In addition to an outstanding team performance this weekend, Lamonda Miller received Athlete of the Year honors in the conference. Miller finished first in the 100 m with a time of 11.56, first in the 200 m at 23.88, and anchored the 400 m relay team to a first place finish in 46.81. In the field events, ASU had nine top-three finishers. Jessie Hoverman finished first in the shotput with a distance of 33 feet and three inches and third in the discus with a throw of 116 feet and 10 inches. McKoy again topping the finishers with a record-setting height of five feet and six inches. Second was Patricia Denson at five feet, four in­ ches, and Whiz Atkins finished third with a five feet, two inch jump. Finishing hot on the heels of Miller in the 100 m and 200 m was Lynett Farmer who finished second in both events with times of 12.22 and 25.45, respectively. Farmer also competed with Miller, Deirdre Keyes, and Stephanie Pipkins on the 400 m relay team that finished first in the com­ petition. In the 100 m hurdles, Patrina Massey finished first in 15.03, with Tammy Pearsall in 15.63 for a second place finish. In the 400 m hurdles, Kelly Price placed third with a time of 66.20. Linda McKoy won the triple jump with a leap of 37 feet and 4Vi inches and Tonya Kiser finished third at 36 feet, 1014 inches. McKoy also won the long jump with a distance of 19 feet and one inch. Patrina Massey finished third after jumping 18 feet, 11 inches. The Lady Apps took first, second, and third in the high jump with In the 400 m, Melissia Rogers ran to a first place finish in 56.74. Stephanie Pipkins stepped across second with a 57.24 finish. In the 800 m, Jennifer Bowers snagged a second place finish in 2:18.79 and Karen Osada won the third spot in 2:19.80. Osada continued to run well in the 1500 m, and she clinched the top spot with a time of 4:39.25. The ASU squad also topped the competition in the 1600 m relay with a 3:52.84 finish. The relay was compris­ ed by Pipkins, Keys, Tonya Peay, and Rogers. Senior Beth Ruggles had an outstanding day with top finishes in both the 3000 m and the 5000 m with respective times of 10:07.62 and 17:30.64. Vanessa Tysor finished Woods is raked over coals by friends and supporter By APRIL GRIFFIN Appalachian El Cetera Editor High Country Inn was a hot spot for jibes and barbs aimed at ASU Football Coach Sparky Woods Roast. Woods, surrounded by close to 200 friends and supporters, was touched by the night of fine food and playful reminisce. Woods was pleased by the honor and said most people go through their whole life without ever experiencing something like this. Jim Garner, Athletic Director, summed the night up best by saying, "Friends, Mountaineers and Coun­ trymen. We come not to praise Sparky but to bury him." Garner ragged Woods about the hiring process ASU went through for the 1984 season that led to his posi­ tion of head coach. "We were going to make a big deal out of the fact he's the youngest I-AA head coach but he took off his hat and that ruined it," Garner said. "They just thought he was (Chancellor) John Thomas' il­ legitimate son." Former ASU coach and newly ap­ pointed UNC Coach Mack Brown relayed the story of playing in a ProAm with PGA professional Tom Watson. When Woods asked for pointers on his game Watson said, "Take two weeks off and quit." Former Southern Conference Player of the Year, John Settle, now with the Atlanta Falcons, told the crowd about Woods flexibility with the team. "You do it my way or take the Trailways," Woods had told the young Mountaineer team. Later he voiced his appreciation to Woods and ASU by saying, "I'd just like to thank you for helping me make a life tor myself." Troy Douglas, former ASU receiver and assistant running back coach for ASU, reminded Woods of his hassling officials during games. "Dang it, Don (a referee). You might as well put it on the one-yard line." Local businessman Steve Rash got his chance at Woods by introducing Candy Rash a' la head Sparkette "Candy" to the crowd. "Candy" is in charge of recruiting for the team and mentioned the "30 second" recruiting session of fellow roaster Dino Hackett, now with the Kansas City Chiefs. Candy just loves working with Woods and fulfilling other "head" Sparkette duties. After being burned to a frazzle by the roasters. Woods got a chance for some fun retaliation. "After seeing the people that have influenced my life, I'm surprised I did as well as I did," Woods said. When speaking about the result of stress on hair loss, Woods barbed, "About the only person around cam­ pus with more stress than me is The National League's best infielders by position are a bit more difficult to choose than the American League's. The choices in the NL are tough because there are so many solid players at each position. Only at one position does a player stand head and shoulders above everyone else in the league. Well, here are my picks for the best infielders in the National League. Pitcher—Fernando Valenzuela. The pudgy Mexican pitcher may not have the lowest ERA or the most stikeouts or even the most wins every year, but he does what his manager asks of him start after start. If the Dodgers had anything that resembled a bullpen, Valenzuela could post individual statistics that would rival anyone's. As it stands now, Valenzuela goes out every five days without fail knowing he is never going to get the hook. Catcher—Benito Santiago. I thought the AL had no talent at catcher, but the NL is even worse. I choose Santiago over everyone else because he is the only catcher I think would start for every team in the league. Yes, he can hit, but he still has a long way to go defensively. First Base—Keith Hernandez. For a moment, let's forget his bat and talk defense. Quite simply, Hernandez is the best fielding first baseman in history. He plays so far off the line that his second baseman could play to the left of the bag. Offensively, Hernandez continuously puts up first-class numbers and is a great pressure Player. Second Base—Juan Samuel. This man may be the perfect example of the new offensive threat. He can run, hit for Power, and drive in runs. Last year, he had the most extra-base hits since Rogers Horsby by a second baseman. With his defense continuously improving, Samuel is headed straight for superstardom. Third Base—Mike Schmidt. The greatest third baseman who ever lived. Schmidt has dominated the NL for the past 15 years. As a fielder, Schmidt nccumulates more errors than he should because he gets to more balls than he should. If he cut down on his range, he would feduce his errors. Five years after 'nis man retires, the Hall of Fame will enshrine him. Shortstop—Ozzie Smith. Real­ ty. it was no contest. He may not the best fielder of all time, but ° be compared with Luis ^Paricio and Honus Wagner is 8reat praise. Smith saves more njlns with his glove than most P'ayers produce with their bats. *ny offense that he provides is a onus. The Cardinals have gotten '8 bonuses lately. third in both events with a time of 17:49.10 in the 5000 m and 10:22.08 in the 3000 m. Holly DeCann placed third in the 10,000 m run in 39:10.94. The final standings in the con­ ference tournament were ASU 263, Marshall 107, WCU 61, ETSU 59, UT-C 33, Furman 20, and Davidson 7. Coach John Weaver was pleased, but not surprised at the outcome of the tournament. "It's nice to go into the tournament knowing that you are the favorite team, but to go in and win the tourna­ ment with such a quality performance was the best part of the weekend," he said. "Never during the season did we sit back on our talent. We really worked and we proved it at the meet." . ».« t"K . Mr* a' 110 f«§Wi c. i'M 4 (Chancellor) John Thomas." The night was highlighted by WBTV's own Paul Cameron as master of ceremonies. Woods presented Cameron with his own no. 3 ASU football jersey in appreciation of his efforts. The Roast, organized by the High Country Inn, offered sports en­ thusiasts a chance to hear their favorite coach get busted and praised for his work through the years. Woods has been named Southern Conference Coach of the Year three times and has led the Mountaineers to two consecutive Southern Conference Championships. Over the last three years Woods had compiled an im­ pressive 27-8-1 record. RUGBY: David Wall carries the ball for the Appalachian State University Rugby Club. The rugby team, which was founded in 1977, won the 1987 State Rugby Championship and may do the same in 1988. Currently, the team has a 6-6 record for the spring which is outstanding due to the fact that the competition has been a bit more difficult than that of the fall.

The entire event had obviously been carefully planned and organiz­ ed. Unfortunately, due to bad weather, the headlining band was rained out. It is inexcusable for students to blame bad weather on A.P.P.S. Students may have initially felt cheated out of money, but Student Programs has made several efforts to compensate for this loss. The Elements played in H'Appy's Saturday night for free and partial monetary compensation for tickets has been arranged. Furthermore, dozens of dedicated A.P.P.S. members worked all day and night Saturday during the events and cleaned the Upper Stadium Field on Sunday. These individuals often go unnoticed and receive little recognition and appreciation from the student body. A.P.P.S. and Student Programs should be thanked for efforts made throughout the entire weekend and school year. Support student programming as ASU! ,. It's here at last: The Meaning of Life Is $200 of pizza against the rules? By WILLIAM C. BALDWIN AppalacMai Cotaubl Imagine a glorious Sunday in late April, here in Boone. You know, the temperature is just right, the sun wor­ shippers are out in droves. The kind of day that assures some of us that yes, someday we will graduate from this fine institution known as ASU. The kind of day that assures us that at graduation time we wiy receive either the job of our choice or 51,000,000. I'm serious, there was such a day last year, a day that could affirm almost auy absurd belief. There was such a day, but I missed it. I woke up that afternoon with The Hangover From Hell. I had my right hand pressing firmly against the wall behind my head, and my left hand was holding onto the leg of my desk for dear life. I had been dreaming about being aboard a large ship Some Hoey residents complained they cannot have food catered rom Woodlands for a party because Food Services must be utilized on campus. According to Director of Auxiliary Services Liqda Slat#, ASU has specific contracts with vending campanies that strongly discourage patronage of outside vending companies. Supposedly utilization of outside companies violates solicitation laws which exist on campus, ir i/e ^ooc' and P'zza vendors immune from this solicitation law? It Hoey residents ordered $200 worth of delivered pizza, would thev be questoned then? Nevertheless, students should be allowed to use outside companies tor activities involving food, especially if the funding for such events is coming out of their own pockets. A system should be developed in which designated areas could be set aside specifically for the use of outside vendors. An advance notice system could be developed in which groups would be required to reserve the area for specific time slots. This would avoid confusion of having too many vendors at any given time and would therefore decrease any risk involved. and taking their dad's BMWs to Geno's where they would drink pro­ fusely and pair off again just before returning to their apartments to fornicate like beasts until time to shower, shave, dress in expensive clothes and paint their faces for classes the next morning.

I vaguely remembered chas­ ing shots of that with vodka from a half-gallon plastic bottle. This is not a good thing to do. I put on some Steely Dan, and dragged a chair out onto the deck. I put my drink within easy reach and assumed the I've-Got-AHangover-You're-Thinkin«-TooLoud attitude. I contemplated life.

Renfro ASU Box 8307 �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY, APRIL 26.1988 The truth about what really happens to parking tickets An open letter to the memh^rc of letter to the members the ASU Committee on Traffic Management and Safety: e Wouldn't you suppose that, in the light of the mandate of its appoint­ ment by the ASU chancellor and its careful and time-consuming delibera­ tions as an appeals court for campus parking tickets, the ASU Traffic Management and Safety (TM&S) Committee has the power to remove the penalties imposed on members 0f the university community for traffic lights that the committee finds unjustified? Well, have another guess! Under the current fee system, the penalty charged ASU students, staff, and faculty for most ASU parking in­ fractions doubles for the second violation—even if the responsible Traffic and Safety Committee representatives have ruled that fairness calls for granting the appeal of a first parking citation! Rather naively thinking that such a practice couldn't reflect official ASU policy, I sought clarification from Roy Tugman, ASU's Director 0f Public Safety and Security (PSAS). It would be an understate­ ment to say that I was surprised and disappointed by his responses. ^ mining whether a ticket should be considered a first or second viola­ tion. (Presumably the TM&S commit­ tee's action on appeals of first or se­ cond minimum-level tickets similarly has no effect on the restroactive punishment for the charge when the penalty for a third citation rises to $15 regardless of any upheld appeals on the earlier ticket(s).) To answer the immediate quesion, Tugman insisted that favorable anH 'c8f tlle Traffic Management and Safety Committee on firstviolation traffic appeals could not remove all of the penalties—that is, charge for the second restrictedarea citation issued to an ASU stu­ dent, staff or faculty member is doubled even if the committee's review determines that the appeal should be upheld and the accompanying penalty revoked. Of perhaps even greater concern to the ASU community, Tugman J"stifies this disregard of the Traffic Management & Safety Committee's judicial authority by his view that, in effect, he and his staff are infalli­ ble! They were confident, he assured me, that all ASU traffic tickets are "correctly issued" and that therefore whatever the findings of the TM&S Committee, any violation issued by PS&S remains a violation. (So committee members uphold ap­ peals on the basis on their soft hearts and sympathy? I suspect most of them would deny that!) And—so goes the arbitrary reasoning of Tugman—thus the PS&S computer program quite properly ignores the findings of appeals to the Traffic and Safety Committee when deter­ It is not because there are large sums of money at stake that I urge the Traffic Management & Safety Committee to examine this clear undermining of its right and respon­ sibility to absolve wrongly ticketed individuals of the penalties attached to their unjustified traffic citations. (After all, considering merely whether the penalty imposed for a second ticket received after a suc­ cessful appeal of one's first ticket should be $5, or $10.) Rather it is the principle involved that provokes my call for a further look at this dis­ dain by PS&S for the ASU com­ munity's right to fair handling of parking citations. After volunteering to serve in a faculty position on the campus traf­ fic committee a few years ago, I soon lost any exaggerated notion of the respect accorded that committee by PS&S and its director. Then as now, faculty, student and staff com­ mittee members spent scores of hours each semester seeking to act fairly on hundreds of parking ap­ peals. At that time it was a semiopen secret that thousands of dollars of traffic penalties were never receiv­ ed by ASU because hundreds of parking tickets were administratively "voided" each year in Tugman's of­ fice without need for any appeals by the ticketed and without benefit of any Traffic Management and Safety Committee review. At that time nearly as many ticket fees were "forgiven" in this autocratic fashion as in the careful and open processes of formal ticket appeals through the traffic committee. Alumni leaders, university com­ mittee members, and Boone businesses reportedly benefitted most often from this "ticket-fixing". This may seem an unnecessarily strong term, but it may well be appropriate under the conditions involved. After all, for the favored individuals, cam­ pus parking regulations were deemed basically irrelevant by PS&S, despite the resulting substantial loss of university revenue and increased disruption of campus traffic and parking facilities. I would be glad to learn that such large discretionary power of PS&S to cancel parking tickets has since been curtailed, but I do not have the impression that that is the case. As the university faces growing opposition to its plans for greatly in­ creased charges for its parking and other transportation activities, it seems important that its treatment of university students, staff and faculty reflect a commitment to fairness as well as to efficiency. In particular, PS&S should not be "voiding" hundreds of tickets received by "outsiders", harming both the university's money-flow and traffic-flow situations just as it is seeking more money from almost everybody to improve campus traffic and parking. And it should not be "reinstating" any part of parking penalties that the broad-based and highly conscientious TM&S commit­ tee finds to be unjustified. The perspective from my current incarnation as an ASU special student—closer to the largely disen­ franchised student and staff majori­ ty of the ASU population—leaves me with the growing impression that PS&S fits in all too comfortably with other pockets in the ASU ad­ ministration whose penchant for high-handed wielding of ad­ ministrative power tends to over­ whelm regard for the welfare and morale of ASU students, faculty, and staff. It seems all the more im­ portant for an officially-sanctioned group such as the ASU Traffic Management & Safety Committee, intended to broaden the participa­ tion of the ASU community in the important traffic and safety con­ cerns assigned to it, to investigate and call for appropriate action to remedy apparent patterns of ine­ quitable practices by agencies in the ASU bureacracy. I emphasize that this letter intends no questioning that all or nearly all of such agencies and their staffs are honest, loyal, well-intended, and hard-working. But many of us insist that's just not sufficient: they must also be seen as concerned with fairness in process and in result, and must be respon­ sive to the frequent input, expressed goals, and morale concerns of the wider community of ASU staff, faculty, and students. Edward B. Fallon Route 6, Box 41-C Boone, NC Dougherty House debate continues to be inflammatory issue To the Editor: Michael Rust, I have been ac­ quainted with you for a few years now, but I should say I was most surprised with your "Letter to the Editor" published in the April 14 copy of The Appalachian. We have not often met eye-to-eye on a lot of values, but your latest view really takes the cake. Burn the Dougherty House! What a great idea! Say, let's go one step further. Let's tear down that ridiculous sec­ tion of historical sites in Old Salem and put up government-subsidized 1* J _ housing. I > - melt down * 1 Let's those bronzed statues in Raleigh and use the money to donate to charity. Think big, Michael! Let's pull down the Vietnam Veterans' Memorial and build a parking lot for government officials. Instead of renovating the White House year after year, let's just re-do the whole thing. And think of all the money that was wasted on renovating the Statue of Liberty: money that could have been saved for the poor. What a shame we do not have your insight! The problem is, Mr. Rust, that tearing down the past is not the solution for unrelated problems of , . .. . . .. the present. The $140,000 it would take to renovate the Dougherty House isn't even a drop in the bucket compared to the billions the university would spend in erecting a brand-spanking new concrete building. The renovated Dougherty House could be used as office space for university clubs and organiza­ tions. The old house has a charming style—a personality. Do any of the other buildings of the campus reflect the heart and soul of working peo­ ple? Not really. Many people choose to learn from the past. If historical objects were continuously removed or destroyed, ..... . . all links to the past may be lost. Think what would have happened if, years ago, Egyptians decided to plow down the pyramids. Why,even now, Egyptians are planning ways to preserve them from further corro­ sion. Would that be, in your eyes, money wasted? In the great castles of Europe, governments expend vast amounts of money for the restora­ tion of the art masters' paintings and tapestries. Money wasted? In England, students and faculty of Oxford University would rather cut off their right arms before shoveling under their old buildings to provide space for "cardboard box" motif Noise Continued from Page 10 the students of ASU in an effort to reduce partying. It is based upon a subjective interpretation of the defini­ tion of noise. The Boone Town Coun­ cil should consider making amend­ ments to the ordinance. The amend­ ments should include a better descrip­ tion of what violates the ordinance. Included in the description should be a maximum decibel level of noise allowable and require the use of a decibel meter. The amendments should also include times that the noise law would not be in effect. These amendments would allow the ordinance to be fair, if not just. XII . yof While you are correct in stating that the Dougherty House is not a direct part of the university struc­ ture; remember that all of the original university structures have been replaced. This is the only link to the past which the university has in accordance with its existence. Your arguments concerning the poor are understood and appreciated but your supports are illogical. Try a different tactic. The Watauga Coun­ ty Hunger Coalition is sponsoring a Crop Walk on April 23. Put your money where your mouth is: spon­ sor a walKer. or better yet, if you are truly concerned about the poor in Watauga, instead of going to Yofest, join the 10 K. walk yourself. Use your gifts of persuasive speech to get sponsors to donate money to help the hungry. Or if you insist on asking unrelated causes to give their money to the poor, then turn to your U.S. representatives to ask them to stop pouring money into new and different military methods of destroying lives, and use some of the money to save a few lives. But don't ask people to give up a cause which they believe in. Perhaps ask­ ing them to also put efforts into a cause you believe in would be a more beneficial route to choose. It would probably be better received, and bring about greater results. Heidi Van Dine ASU Box 13259 MINOR'S PRINTING 115 W.

V The ordinance, passed on March j, says if any complaint is called in •— •deeming noise, the Boone Police lepartment can come to the site and tenant can be issued a citation t nth no warning.

Jones was issued a citation while •Kiting >n fr°nt ^'s res'dence with / several friends on March 25. "I had no idea I was breaking any law at 2:30 in the afternoon," Jones aid. "All we were doing was lying )Ut jn the sun and the police came by mdgave me a citation." Jones stated he did not see anything in the newspapers about the new or­ dinance until four days later. We brought up the noise or­ dinance for discussion in the two previous meetings prior to the meeting on March 24," Town Coun­ cil member Velma Burnley said. "The meeting on March 24 was a regularly scheduled meeting and just happened to coincide with Easter Break." Burnley said the new ordinance is a revision of the old noise ordinance. "The issue of citations is up some but not up a great deal," Zane Tester Boone Chief of Police said. Tester said the Boone Police Department receives apporoximately 1,000 calls a year concerning loud noise disturbances. "It's not our intention to stop students from having parties," Tester said. "We just want to protect the rights of people who are bothered by loud music or other disturbances." We changed three things by revis­ ing the existing ordinance. The new ordinance was rewritten in layman's terms so the average citizen could understand it. We did away with the requirement that a decibel meter had to be used to judge the loudness of the disturbance, and we added a clause stating that both the landlord and the tenant were responsible for any noise violations," Burnley said. "We don't have a police force that is adequate enough to control noise problems," Burnley said. Under the new revisions, the fine has risen from $50 to $100. "This was done to control the pro­ blem. A $50 fine didn't seem to be working," Burnley said. "The new revisions make it easier for a citizen to get something done about excessive noise," Boone City Manager Len Hagaman said. Many students are upset that no ad­ vance warning was given. "We took all precautions at our party to keep it safe," Scott Prichard said. Prichard was issued a noise violation citation. "The cops came to the door, broke up the party and then gave my room­ mate and myself a citation without any warning whatsoever," Prichard said. Many students feel the new or­ dinance was passed without inform­ ing them of the changes. "They should not change the law without notice," Jones said. Many students also feel it is unfair to not give a warning before issuing a citation. "I think it's an attempt to keep the students from having parties," Prichard said.

Appalachian Photo by Koith Barlow 1 Heckel approved for Chief Justice job By SHANNON SPARKS Apptlachliia Staff Writer Attorney General Andrew Heckel was accepted by the SGA Senate as the Chief Justice for the 1988-89 academic year on Tuesday night. Heckel became a Justice in Student Judiciary during his sophomore year, pe has also served as Assistant At­ torney General, Deputy Attorney Peneral, and presently as Attorney •metal. I Andrew was the only Chief Justice puninee. I At the April 12 Senate meeting, a Potion was made to re-open Chief Justice nominations. It was believed that the lack of nominees was a result of lack of publicity about the position and potential nominees had been allegedly coerced not to run. The motion failed and nominations were not re-opened. No accusations about coercions or other dishonorable activities within Judiciary were never substantiated or looked into. No question was made of Heckel's credentials or abilities, but a question had existed-about the fairness of the nominations. The Senate determined the original deadline would be sustained. Senators voted and were given the opportunity to question Heckel re­ garding the position, and if he was a witness to violations of regulations outside the courtroom, would he in­ tervene. Heckel replied that the behavior of Chief Justice outside the courtroom should be without regress, and rather than intervene in viola­ tions, of regulations and policies by students outside of his prescribed ac­ tions in the courtroom, he would alert the proper authorities. Senator Jeff Crum questioned Heckel concerning an incident involv­ Committee reviews system By JULIE WELLS Assistant News Editor The Intrafraternity Council and Panhellenic Council of SGA have jointly formed a Greek Expansion Committee which is looking into ™e addition of more fraternities an d sororities on campus.

Most Greeks seem to support the plans for expansion. "I think it would be a good idea because that way there is more of a chance to feel like you're in a sisterhood or brotherhood," Sorority member Cary Anne Wolf said. "But I don't think they should expand too quickly because that might upset the quota for some people." "I think it would be a good idea as long as there are enough people who want to go greek to support it. 1 don't want the number of people in the fraternities and sororities to go down but I don't want it to in­ crease much either," Wolf added. Linnell said the committee has not officially presented the results of the report but will do so within the next week. If the decision is made to add a new fraternity or sorority, a new committee will be formed that will contact National organizations and invite them to make a presentation to the com­ mittee. "A new group might be able to offer something that the groups we have now aren't currently offering the student body," Linnell said.

See HECKEL Page 2 Burns rewarded for academics Student recognition By SHELLEY KAEHR Appalachiaa Editor Robert Burns, a junior at ASU, is one of two recipients in North Carolina of the Truman Memorial Scholarship. One-hundred and five students from across the country received the scholarship annually. Recipients of the award can receive a maximum sti­ pend of $7000 per year during their last two years of college and first two years of graduate school. Since ASU tuition is not $7000 per year. Burns receives the amount needed for room, board and tuition. One-hundred and five students from across the country received the scholarship annually. Advisor of the Honors Program Dr. Donald Saunders advised Burns to apply for the scholarship. The ap­ plication process required Burns to submit three essays, three letters of recommendation, high school and college transcripts, and a personal let­ ter. Burns participated with other ASU students to qualify as a nominee. He was later selected to attend the na­ tional competition where he was chosen to be a semi-finalist. Western Carolina student Patsy Holley was the other North Carolina recipient of the award. In February, Burns went to Nashville for an interview and com­ peted with other students for the scholarship. "They told me I won about two weeks ago," Burns said. "I was jum­ ping up and down and screaming." To be considered for the scholar­ ship, a student must be a sophomore pursuing a degree at an accredited in­ stitution of higher education, have at least a 3.0 GPA, be a US citizen, have selected a major that could result in admittance to a graduate program leading to a career in public service, and have demonstrated an interest in a public service career. The Harry S. Truman Scholarship Foundation is now in its 12th year and makes one new scholarship available each year to a qualified student from each state, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico (considered as a single entity), Guam, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and the Com­ monwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. Bums will be flying to Kansas City on May 6 to receive the scholarship. The Truman Foundation is covering all expenses of the trip. "Starting next year it (the scholar­ ship) will continue for four years and will continue through graduate school. That is when it will really come in handy because then I can use the whole amount," Burns said. Burns is a political science major and has participated in such organize tions as Gamma Beta Phi, Phi Eta Sigma and Delta Chi. He has als< • been a writer for the Rhododendron, an AppolCorp coordinator and depu­ ty attorney general for Student Judiciary. Two other recipients for various scholarships are Ellen Nichols and Curtis Holloman. Nichols has won the ASU A.R. Smith Chemistry scholarship. It is awarded to an entering fresh mm every year who plans to major in Jimmy Culgnarri chemistry. Competition is based on SAT scores, class rank and high school performance. Nichols plans to become a chemistry teacher. A.I' Smith was a long-time chemistry pro­ fessor at ASU and the first chair of the chemistry department. The scholarship covers tuition and fees for one year. Holloman is a first-year graduate student in political science who has won a $1000 scholarship from the Na­ tional Conference of Black Political Scientists Graduate Assistantship Program. He was presented the awar d March 25 in Washington, D.( . Holloman is a member of the Southern Political Science Associa­ tion and a former intern for U.S. Republican Charlie Rose. He also received a graduate assistantship to assist the director of the university's Appalachian House in Washington, D.C., this summer. Holloman plans to enter a doctoral program after graduating from ASU. Organizations strive for superiority Workshop enhances leadership By NICOLE PARSONS Appalachian News Editor Various organizations, clubs and individuals participated in the first annual leadership workshop held Saturday in the Student Union. "It went really well, the speakers were excellent, everybody who attend­ ed had nothing but great things to say about it," Coordinator Margaret Clancy said. The workshop was sponsored by the Student Development Center and progressed through the combined efforts of Director of the Student Development Center Lee McCaskey, Assistant Director of Student Development Center Dino DiBernardi, Student Publication Director Kathryn Knight and Clancy. Approximately 44 students heard presentations on such topics as motivation, public speaking liabilities, time management, team building and public speaking with confidence. McCaskey conducted a session on membership recruitment. "I stressed the methodology of recruitment and things to look for prior to recruitment of members in an organization, and how long you keep members," McCaskey said. "We designed effective recruitment plans for new members." Club presidents submitted names of other club members for the workshop. "We had every kind of club you can think of from greek organizations to service organizations. It was quite a diversified group of people," Clancy said.

"In past years we've even had peo­ ple from Johnson City, Tennessee, come and walk with us, but anybody can participate that wants to. We do advise that children be with a group," Chater said. The money raised by the CROP Walk goes to the Church World Ser­ vice and 25 percent of the total amount raised through pledges goes to the Watauga County Hunger Coalition. The coalition is a private, non-profit organization that provides hunger relief to low-income people in Watauga County. The 15th annual CROP Walk, sponsored by the Watauga County Hunger Coalition, will be held Satur­ day, April 23. Registration for the 10-kilometer walk starts at 8:30 a.m. at Boone United Methodist Church, and the walk begins at 10. "The walkers usually finish in about two hours. The runners, of course, finish faster. We'll have our usual Shalom Festival after the walk," Joan Chater of the Watauga County Hunger Coalition said. Other post-walk activities will in­ clude the awards ceremonies, enter­ tainment, and free Pepsi and pizza provided by Domino's. The number of participants in the CROP Walk will vary, depending on weather conditions. "When it's bright and sunny, we have between 700 and 800. Last year we had twenty-two inches of snow and had to reschedule the day, then it rained and we had 250-275 people. If it's pretty weather we can do real well," Chater said.

The coalition also provides limited cash assistance to families in need, helps distribute U.S. Department of Agriculture surplus commodities, and aids the unemployed in finding jobs through project DELTA (Developing Employment Linkages Through Ac­ tion). Last year the CROP Walk raised a total of about $13,000, with $3,250 going to the Watauga County Hunger Coalition. "We had a goal of $20,000 last year, but because of the weather it was not met. Two and three years before, however, the goal was met and surpassed," Chater said. The Hunger Coalition is always in need of volunteers, food donations, and cash donations to stay open and provide their services to the communi­ ty. All donations are tax-deductible. The main goal of the CROP Walk is to raise as much money as possible to help the cause of hunger in Watauga County and the world. "The money is used mostly to buy food to be used in the county, and the food is used in two programs; the sup­ plemental food assistance and food relief," Chater said. Last year, the coalition provided for 2,890 people in Watauga County. The food relief program sends boxes of food to families in crisis situations (unemployment, illness, excessive medical expenses, etc.).

"Students were able to learn basic leadership skills that will be helpful in student organizations but also can be used out in the world," Clancy said. "These are the kinds of things you need to know whether you are a stu­ dent leader or not," Clancy added. As Student Development Leader­ ship Instructor Clancy points out that compassion is a necessary quality in any leadership position. "The most important thing to me is to be someone aware of others' feel­ ings and people come first," Clancy said. REACH FOR THE POWER. TEACH. 1-800-45-TEACH.

"Oh, my God, I can't 8° through with it—but I have to." That's what was going through the If"1 f i °«, 30 or 80 cheerleading hopefuls Wednesday afternoon at the ASU Varsity cheerleading tryouts. Although you have to be outgoing to be a cheerleader, those trying out were worried about other things—like not making a fool out of yourself!! The first year I tried out I saw someone fall flat on their face in front of everyone," Varsity cheerleading captain Danny Black said. "Then I went out there and almost did the same thing myself." The cheerleaders have a week to practice all the material before the actual tryout. But to some, the week seems like a day. "You practice all week, day and night—you even do it in your sleep," cheerleader Tammy Page said. "But when you get out there in front of all the judges, you start worrying about making a mistake and that's when you lose your concentration." For the tryouts, everyone must per­ form a fight song, one cheer and sideline chant, two optional stunts, and a dance for the girls. You must be prepared. "You practice all week to make sure you don't make a mistake and then if you don't smile, you blew it," cheerleader Roddy Cobb said. "It takes a lot of work to get everything together." Some aren't as fortunate as others, but for the ones who make the squad the hard work lies ahead of them. The ASU cheerleaders are regarded as one of the top squads in the nation. "People don't realize that we don't take a break from cheering. But that's why we do it; we like what we're doing and that's the commitment we take when we make the squad." Kelly Ponder "Making the squad is just half the work," cheerleader Ransome Price said. "Once you're on you have to practice or lift weights every day of the week and also cheer at all the foot­ ball and home basketball games." True, the ASU cheerleaders are active all year long. They must cheer continuously for football and basket­ ball games and also conduct the Black and Gold squad J.V. tryouts. There's never an off season. "People don't realize that we don't take a break from cheering," cheerleader Kelly Ponder said. "But that's why we do it; we like what we're doing and that's the commit­ ment we take when we make the squad." The ASU squad has been National Champions and in the top three the last three years. They have also been Southern Conference Cheerleading Champions the last four years—since the competition began. The recogni­ tion they bring the school is sometimes unnoticed. "During the summer I travel all over the eastern and northern parts of the United States teaching cheerleading camps," former mascot John Ballard said. "When people ask me where I go to school they've usual­ ly heard of it through our success in cheerleading competitions." The tryouts were a success and a new, young squad was selected. For the 14 lucky people chosen, the hard work is just beginning. And the pressure to keep the tradition is even greater. "We've been considered the best squad in our division for the last four years and it didn't come easy," former cheerleader Scott Williams mmmmmmmmmmmr mnrhri Appalachian Photo by Kim Howoll Varsity Cheerleading is something to get excited about. said. "I hope this squad realizes all the hard work and determination it takes to be on top—after all, they have a large pair of shoes to fill." With the competition that was displayed on Wednesday afternoon, the talent seems to be there. Now THEY will continue the tradition that's been left. Congratulations and good luck!

Dance Ensemble's unique style will win you over By ANDREA ANDERSON Appalachian Staff Writer One of the definitions Webster's Collegiate Dictionary gives for the word dance is "a series of ryhthmic and patterned bodily movements usually performed to music." If you take advantage of the opportunity to see the Appalachian Dance Ensemble perform on April 21, 22, and 23 in Chapell Wilson Auditorium, you will see this definition come alive on stage. Dancers Amy Sink and Jamie Isaacs, and dancers/choreographers Kai Schmoll and Monroe Moore spoke recently on why dance is impor­ tant and what the Appalachian Dance Ensemble means to them. "I enjoy being on stage," Schmoll said. "There's certain things that you can do with motion," Schmoll refer­ red to how expressive dance can be, showing different moods and feel­ ings. Watauga High School student Sink allows her dancing to help her when she has had a bad day. "It can be an outlet," she said. Dancers work very hard to perfect their craft. They look forward to be­ ing able to do more year after year. They commented that just because a choreographer feels a move looks good, that is not necessarily enough for them. They want to do better each time. "There is always somebody behind you doing it better," Schmoll said. Being in the Ensemble itself satisfies some desires the dancers have, like being able to choreograph. limVer ^•rea'C 1 was '°°'<'n8 for a 7Tmcr job and was privileged to i t0 411 advertising executive, spent over an hour on the ^explaining how important s Was.

This is challenging to the dancers because there are "dif­ ferent choreographers each year," Sink said. Each one has a different style of dance. The dancers are chosen from classes by the choreographers. There are no auditions. The rehearsals begin in October, and for the last month the participants "eat, breathe and sleep " Dance Ensemble. According to Isaacs, the perfor­ mance is going to be varied. "It is "mostly modern dance," Sink said. There will be some pieces of the performance that are ag­ gressive, and some will be peaceful. There will be "a great difference in costumes, themes, and music," in the individual dances," Sink said. Moore said there will be one improvational piece done with ASU's Percussion Ensemble. "There are a lot of things that are really enjoyable to watch," Schmoll said. According to the dancers, some people might not want to come to the performance because they have the wrong impression of dance. "It's not what they think it is," The ASU Dance Ensemble will be performing April 21 through 23 in Chapell-Wilson. Sink said most people think they have to understand everything that is going on on-stage, looking for the hidden meanings in every move, which might not be there. Schmoll said people should come and see the performance because "It's an opportunity to have exposure to something that is unfortunately too rare for this area." Sometimes people who don't understand dance have a strange im­ pression of men who are involved with dancing. There really isn't anything effeminate about dancing, Schmoll added. It is very difficult, and can be painful, especially when dancers are performing with injuries. Watching Moore dance this weekend, you won't be able to tell he sprained his ankle Wednesday. He rehearsed and will dance anyway. The dancers are chosen from classes by the choreographers. There are no auditions. The rehear­ sals begin in October and for the last month the par­ ticipants "eat, breathe and sleep" Dance Ensemble. Considering some of the comments that less knowledgeable persons might make, "you have to be above that," Sink said. Making something impossible look easy is what all dancers, male and female do, and Sink commented, "Is there anything more powerful?" Moore wants the audience to come away with one thing. "I hope they think about it the next day." he said. �THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDA Y.

H i l l e r 262-7631 Gary Greene 262-2265 A �the Appalachian THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDA Y, APRIL 21, 1988 DIVERSIONS Eric Boiash Amateurs are anything but amateurs Rv DDITITT iT V r... By PRUITT ALLEN Appalachian Columnist Smithereens fall short of xpectations Maybe I misunderstood The Smithereens... Maybe I misunderstood the college music charts... I had always been under the impression that each of these represented a refreshingly dif­ ferent outlook of music. A view­ ing of The Smithereens' show on Tuesday, April 19 proved this 'theory wrong, however. The Smithereens dragged through a set of about two and a half hours that seemed to please the many intoxicated spectators, but came across as somewhat boring to those with higher expectations of such a highly acclaimed "college" band. The Smithereens played many of the songs from their new album, Green Thoughts, and this may have had something to do with the show's dragging tempo. Green Thoughts is a nicely ar­ ranged album, but there is no real kick to it that makes the music energetic or exciting when played live. 1 spoke with drummer, Dennis Diken in a telephone interview out of Carteret, New Jersey, the band's home town. Diken claim­ ed, "We're a rock n' roll band. We try to make music for everybody and we don't limit it to a certain audience." This statement might be the key to such an unsatisfying show; The Smithereens do indeed want to please everyone, and this may be their downfall. Complacency in this style of music is quite dull, and, by striving to please everyone with their music, this band seems to stay in the mainstream of music and not really go off on any intereting tangents.. .like picking up the tempo, for instance. The show began with Something New from the new album, and continued with Groovy Tuesday, Down In My Om Tears, and The World We Know, the majority of which also came from the new album. Singer, Pat DiNizio com­ plemented the songs with the pure, but forceful vocals that are °ne of the better aspects of the hand. Drummer, Dennis Diken j>eem?d to drag the tempo a bit hy not keeping up, and this made some of the songs difficult to ollow. Bassist, Mark Mesaros seemed to try to make up for the ragging tempo by being quite active on stage, but this backfired and he only came across as a young boy who is hyper-active r°m a large indulgence in Jolt °'a- As if these extremes were n°t enough, guitarist, Jim Babjak eemed almost uninterested in was doing; every time p ,at r|ok pointed at him and said, I '""ay" Jim would mechanicalchurn out a guitar solo, but ere was not much feeling in at he was doing.

Since they will be playing at Amadeus this Friday night, this seemed like as good a time as any to tell you all about them. The Amateurs play either heavily reggae-influenced rock or heavily rock-influenced reggae, depending on which song they happen to be playing. The lead singer, Bill "Shep" Sheppard, says the combination of disparate styles originally came direct­ ly from the members themselves. The lead guitarist, Mike Davis, was into Van Halen and Carlos Santana; rhythm guitarist Maurice Alcourt listened to a lot of country; the drum­ mer, Terry Richardson, played in a rock band. The members of the band, in­ cluding in addition Trace Voorhes on bass, and Hal Parker and Tim Roberts on keyboards, met in Green­ ville through the musician's underground that seems to spring up in every college town with more than one band. After three or so of the original members got used to just jamming with each other, they started adding members and haven't looked back since. Shep, a native of the area around Greenville, says his early influences centered around the gospel music his mother sang. His neo-Rastafarian beard gives away his later reggae in­ fluences, though, and the conga drums he sits behind on stage (all he can do right now is sit, courtesy of a cast on his leg acquired in a basketball game) add a deeply percussive edge to the music his band plays. That music ranges from Bob Dylan to The Clovers to Sam Cooke in addi­ tion to the Peter Tosh and Ziggy Marley reggae styles that dominate the band's stage show. Shep and the other members also contribute a good number or originals, all of which sounded well-crafted to me. The band is quick to pick up a grove, and they swing in well-coordinated fashion despite the frequent sit-ins and per­ sonnel rotations the band uses to stay fresh musically. The show I saw in Greenville was hampered by a lack of any acoustical quality whatsoever in the room they played, but that didn't stop the peo­ ple in attendance from jumping in feet-first and dancing their hearts out. Even I, a habitual concert-sitter, was dragged to my feet by the infectious rhythms these guys put out. I think the song that finally got me was either a faintly-remembered Bob Marley song or the Talking Heads "And She Was," but either way 1 was hooked, and it was impossible to sit down. I'm simply waiting for the near-perfect acoustics of Amadeus to really bring out the best in The Amateurs. So what I'm saying is this; don't let Yofest be the only musical experience you get this weekend; go down to Amadeus on Friday night and get your socks blown off by The Amateurs. We'll call it station WHLL "Life in Radio Hell" By C.W. PRATHER Appalachian Staff Writer Alright, now where was 1? Oh yeah! I was telling you a story I was reminded of while flipping through a photo album with my cat, Sid. A story about a guy named Doug who worked at College Town College's College Radio Station (also known as WHLL). He, along with friends Phil and Andy, thought they could help make a difference. They didn't think a college radio station should program Top 40 music so they went against the odds. Their battle started to cost them, however. Doug began to wonder if he really could make a difference and was even think­ ing of giving up at WHLL. Then, one person convinced him that he should stay on and continue the fight. Her name was Samantha. Sam and Doug became good friends. They, along with Phil and Samantha's best friend (who we'll call Linda), would go out to all the hip restaurants trying to find "their place." Since "Frat Ratholes," like Bash Trend Rocks, didn't exist in College Town at this time, they opted for the best place then and now; Pep­ pers. The four became very tight. When positions for the next school year's WHLL staff became available Sam decided she should try to become the Program Director. She had the best shot of anyone up there and besides she agreed with what was be­ ing written in the college paper (which we'll call "College Town College's College Paper") and what was also being said by her friends; that the for­ mat was simply putrid. To no real surprise, Sammy got the job. She then had to take the un­ popular stand among the other in­ coming Station Directors, one she had to fight every inch to see a reality. She Featuring a real By JAMIE McLENDON Preface: Each spring, ASU art students are invited to participate in an event called "Art Expo." Expo gives the students a chance to display their artwork and also to compete for cash awards. While freshmen, sophomores and juniors are given the halls and rooms of Herbert Wey Hall to exhibit (a floor for each class), senior artists have the privilege of hanging their self-framed works in Farthing Auditorium's Catherine J. Smith Gallery. Being an art student, I got the chance to see works by my friends progress throughout the year to exhibition perfection' as well as take part in the actual hanging process. When asked who I personally thought would win the senior prize of $250, I believed it would be one of three people: Clark Whittington, Steve Parrish or Amy Funderburk. On Fri­ day night, April 15, all three were announced as winners at the Expo reception. Over the course of the next three weeks, I will be interviewing each artist about their work. For this week, I will start with Clark Whittington; a good friend and also the guy who takes me home each break. JMcL: How did you start doing what you do? CW: I think what really got me interested in fine art was when I took the advanced drawing course that was offered in the art department. The summer afterwards I wanted to con­ tinue drawing. During that summer, I traveled to New York with my mother and I bought a book on Rauschenberg. I really liked his style and I think it played a big role in my movement towards abstraction. I think I always had the same style but it took that one trip to New York to refine my ideas and JMcL: Do you have influences Rauschenberg? CW: any other besides I enjoy all of the work of the pop artists but I think a major influence was some of my peers in the art department. For three years I did not meet anyone who was serious about art until my junior year and that was when I met Greg Smith. Watching him paint and seeing his very aggressive style and energy really turned me on to painting and draw­ ing. JMcL: It's funny that you mention Pop Art. I was going to say that while your work Is not directly Pop Art, I see elements of It combined with elements of expressionism; specifically your use of every­ day items. Let's talk about what all you use in your work. You use the Clark candy bar wrappers pretty much; does it have to do with your name? CW: (laughs) Yes! Definitely; I like to relate that as a kind of selfportrait identity. I think wrappers and labels are very exciting. I love the color of a lot of labels and wrappers. I used to feel I had a problem with bright color and the wrappers put me in a position to work around high inten­ sities of bright reds and yellows. JMcL: What else do you use as media? CW: them with a big grin on her face. This didn't go over too well with staion boss, Mike. You see, Mike ac­ tually owned a copy of "Raising P.G. Kids in an X-Rated Society," and he wondered how Mrs. Gore (the book's author) would react to calling a radio station, RADIO HELL. Saitantha knew she needed help, and so she surprised Doug by asking him to be her assistant. Nothing could have made him happier. Well, time passed (as time often likes to do) and Doug found himself See RADIO HELL Page 8 winner-Clark Whittington ASU get them together. I'd done collage before I even knew who Robert Rauschenberg was and I was amazed to see how similar my work was to his. Appalachian Staff Writer told her stunned peers that next school year WHLL would not be playing Top 40. Instead, the format would be directed at the students. The format would now be Album Oriented Rock (A.O.R.) and Pro­ gressive Music. Samantha really shocked them by announcing that WHLL would have a much trendier name which would become incorporated with their liners. It would be something like, "You are listening to radio hell. Radio hell is WHLL-FM!" "Naturally some amazingly deep voice would belt that out," she told I love found objects. My mom hates me for it because I have a very messy room. I'm an ultimate packrat. Everytime I go home I find something from my childhood that I would love to incorporate in a painting. I take refuge in other people's junk. JMcL: What about media used In addition to collage material? CW: I like doing oil paintings basically but I also enjoy do­ ing acrylic on paper. I blend graphite in all my work. JMcL: Television seems to play a big part In your life and in your art. You've done several paintings of Herman Munster and you seem to have a fascination with early to mid-60's TV shows (Batman, The Munsters, Andy Grif­ fith). CW: aspects of it were fun and some were not so fun. When I would come home, I valued my free time so much I would paint energetically. I think a full-time job would help me out because I would value my time more and wouldn't abuse it and lose that energy. 1 think I would produce better art plus it would keep the sar­ casm in me so that I would want to paint. JMcL: How do you feel about win­ ning Expo? CW: It was an honor. I just did the best I could do then blocked it out of my mind. JMcL: Anything you'd like to say In closing? CW: A lot of art lacks fun and I have a lot of fun with my art. I like to use humor and sar­ casm jointly to help make my statement. If people don't think I'm a good painter, I hope they think that I have a good sense of humor at least. I Looking around at the pictures of Adam West (Batman) and Barney Fife on Clark's wall and videotapes of The Ghost and Mr. Chicken and The Munsters on his desk, it's difficult not to. I love television, especially those programs because when I was growing up, they played those as re-runs. It reminds me of my childhood and I think it's very fun. Fred Gwyne is one of my favorite television heroes—along with Don Knotts. I think they were great actors at the time. JMcL: Something that I've noticed In a lot of your early work is the use of stamps and postage marks. CW: That was another study I was fascinated with; the graphic quality of government stamps. As design, I liked it because there would be a clear cut postage stamp with a very aggressive rubber stamp on top of it. That's another everyday image people tend to overlook. 3 JMcL: What about the future? Are you going to be a fine artist or go Into graphic design? CW: I'm definitely going to paint. This past summer I had a job doing graphic design. Some Appalachian Photo Courtoty by Jomio Mclondon I Art Expo winner Clark Whittington THE SMITHEREENS: Highly acclaimed college band, The Smithereens entertained students of ASU on Tuesday, April 19. The band ranks high on the "Progressive" college music charts, and attracted a large crowd to H'APPY's. The Smithereens are from Carteret, New Jersey, and members include Pat DiNizio (vocals and rhythm guitar), Jim Babjak (lead guitar), Mike Mesaros (bass guitar), and Dennis Diken (drums). The Smithereens are currently touring to support their latest album, Green Thoughts. A weekend of talented local talent By PALMER C. WILLIAMS JR. ApyllfMn SUN Writer I'm afraid that I just had one of the best times of my college life this past weekend at ASU. Yeah, that's right. I said, "at ASU!" What I am naturally boasting about is the ASU Local Band Weekend that occurred on our cam­ pus Thursday, April 14 at H'APPY's and the following night at The Pub. The much talked about No Reason Why hit the stage first at H'APPY's. One might think a group that has only performed three previous times wouldn't have a following; this just isn't the case. The masses went wild for Wendy, Chris, Rob and Ron as they kicked off the evening of local talent. It was an amazing set. To do something different, I decided to ask Sec WEEKEND Pcac 10 9 1 �THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDA Y, APRIL 21, 1988 Finding Ranger Rick and the Lost Guides By BILLY VINSON Appal.rhi.lt Stiff Writer Last Thursday night was local band night at H'Appy's. The featured bands were No Reason Why, Burning Giraffe, and Ranger Rick and the Lost Guides. 1 had the opportunity to interview the three members of Ranger Rick and the Lost Guides, one of the longest-lasting and most overlooked bands on campus. Of all the local bands, Ranger Rick and the Lost Guides is probably the most rock-and-roll-roots based. The trio of singer-guitarist Scott Dadson, bassist Dave Etheridge and drummer Will Begg rely upon a straight rock and roll repertoire, highlighting the bands original compositions. When asked about his influences, Dadson, the principle songwriter, will immediately rattle off five names: Buddy Hollv, Hank Williams. Patsv It Cline, John Lennon and Lou Reed. His compositions, such as "All the Sadness," "Biting My Nails," and "Kids Want to Drink" are the pro­ ducts of the meshing of his diverse in­ fluences; whereas the band's more collaborative efforts (most notably "Marion Manor" and "I Don't Want to Know") combine Scott's rootsbased style with Dave's heavy metal background and Will's interests in Rush. Joe Jackson and the Stones. "We hate each other's music," Dave said. But when they put it all together, it has a unique quality that is Ranger Rick and the Lost Guides. Songwriting is serious business to Scott, and he will talk about it ail night if you'll allow him to. Scott is the type of person who says what he feels. His character is reflected in his music. What he feels, he writes. Like them or not, Scott's songs are part of himself, and he wants the band's au­ diences to experience this part along with him. "You can't lie with music," he said. "As a songwriter I have to be honest." Audiences that cannot accept the honesty of the band's sound will be turned off to it. But those who are willing to give Ranger Rick a chance, and confront the musical integrity they represent and that has been the flagship of rock and roll since the beginning of time, will not be disap­ pointed . Many people, however, do not give Ranger Rick and the Lost Guides that chance. Much of the reason for this, the guys will admit, is due to their rather absurd name. "People don't think we're serious," Will said. After watching their Thursday night show, however, I would have to say they are serious about their business—that business was Second City - not second rate By PRUITT ALLEN A p p a l a c h i a n Staff W r i t e r The Second City comedy troupe, a nationally acclaimed act that has pro­ duced many huge comedic talents, ripped off two sets of intensely in­ teresting and funny improv in Far­ thing Auditorium last Wednesday night. Only about 350 people showed up. Too bad for the rest of you. The show appealed to all levels of society, but seemed especially geared to an in­ tellectual, articulate college-type crowd—the people that showed up seefned to fit the bill. The troupe, made up of four men, two women, a piano player and a tech man, kept up a breakneck pace through the night; no small feat, since the meat of their act is a series of set pieces that includ­ ed three of their trademark audienceinteraction improvisations. The sheer force of their collective personalities boosted things along. The Second City show had a number of hilarious moments—kind of nice to have in a comedy show. My personal favorite was a scene with two good ol' boys and a waitress at a truck stop, but instead of discussing, say, old pickups, thev discussed Cartesian duality and the existence of God. The real trademark of the troupe is their technique of using audience sug­ gestions for emotions, locations and so forth for the basis of various skits. The improvised results were pretty good—better than anyone else would have done—but they did provide some great screw-ups as well. Many of the skits were as artistical­ ly and intellectually satisfying as they were funny. For instance, the closing skit of the first half of the show was a scene in an artist's flat. The artist's See SECOND Page 10 YGUMS Radio Hell Continued from Page 7 m Rl.fi working at WHLL over the summer with incoming WHLL News Director (who we'll call Elvis). Their major goal was to make the summer (which we'll call "The Clinched Summer of Love") a time of transition from one format to the next. With the help from some friends (who we'll call Alan, Bill, Dan, Amy, Josh, Laura. David, Wendy, Gerard, An Extra Dave, Jim, and Jamie) Doug's job was made easier. With great friends like these, a job he loved (not to men­ tion that anticipation of an even bet­ ter WHLL in the Fall), the summer of 1987 became a time never to forget. Doug wouldn't-have traded that sum­ mer in College| Town with anything before or since» However, all good things must come to an end. being rock and roll and having a good time. One of the biggest and most dif­ ficult steps a Boone band must take, according to Dave Etheridge, is to "get off the mountain." In the year and a half of their existence, Ranger Rick and the Lost Guides have done this with satisfying results. They have opened for Terrance Simien and the Mallet Playboys in Greenville, South Carolina, and have played on the campuses of Wake Forest, Furman, and James Madison. Yet their turn­ outs at various ASU gigs, I have noticed, have always been somewhat less than promising. If you haven't already, I urge you to give Ranger Rick and the Lost Guides (as well as the rest of our local talent) a welldeserved listen. Will speaks for all local bands when he says, "There's nothing better than playing in front of a crowd. We just want to play." 262-6255 Intem Monday • Frida rneyjs 2:00-4:00 1 Wed- & Thur^ 10:00-12:00 Workman Hall 31 9 DON'T USE SNUFF AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY' SPRING SPORT SHIR1 SALE PRO-AM SPORTS BOONP MALL nonNI.N.C.

Every time I see them they have a larger following than from the previous time and each time they are better than the time before I am really getting worried. 1 am afraid they are going to become the next Big Southern Band and forget about all of us. If they weren't so good then I wouldn't be so paranoid. I can't help it, my paranoia sometimes gets the best of me. They did not help matters by playing as great as they did. So good, that it won't surprise me if people soon forget about "Not The Who?" and those other bands that have found fame and fortune outside of the high country. I guess I really shouldn't worry too much. They seem to have their feet on the ground. I just hope they never move into a church. The quality of music in Boone and ASU is better than it has ever been. With all five bands returning in the fall, and all of the talented blues and reggae artists up here, not to mention new bands on the horizon (like DVB, Wolfshare, Life After Lunch, and The Chads From Hell) the ASU music scene of 1988-89 should be amazing.

I was really rated when he asked me to come utside and pitch to him. That ex­ ilement soon changed to fear, hough, as he hurled the baseball lack to me, harder and faster each ime. My brother made the little eague all-star team as the catcher hat year, and I learned that I was i«tat the position of scorekeeper i i ly ir cheerleader, off of the playing iill Still, the excitement of being round the game never left me. For the next several years before entered high school, I was an vid fan of the American Legion aseball. I went to the ballpark aery Saturday night during the ason in Salisbury to watch the ays belt pitches out of the park. I amed a great deal about baseball uring these years. I figured out ie meanings of such terms as ilk, ERA, and error. I also learnwhere to find the best-looking en and the best-tasting hotdogs. This knowledge proved to be lite useful when I entered the orld of high school. Baseball was great topic of conversation, and 'like most of the other girls who ent to the games on Tuesday and iday nights, I really knew what is going on out on the diamond, could go tete-a-tete about iseball with anyone. There was also college baseball iycd about a mile from my 'use. The Pfeiffer Falcons were 10111 8s close to professional seball players as I could get ,{n I was in high school.

"(The expansion is needed due to) the growth of the entire athletic program and football program," Vice Chancellor of Business Affairs Ned Trivette said. During the 1987 meeting of the N.C. General Assembly, $1,095,800 was authorized to complete the expansion. A bank loan and monies from sports related accounts will be used to finance the project. Part of the funding will be provided by the student fee that supports physical education and athletics facilities. The student fee was initiated in the 1960's to finance Varsity Gymnasium, and has since then contributed to the stadium expansion, Quinn Center and the first field house expansion. Cur­ rently, ASU students pay $67.50 of their tuition towards physical educa­ tion. The construction of the addition will begin near the end of the 1988 football season and be completed sometime in 1989. "It will take at least a year," Trivette said. As of now, only the architect has been selected—Clemmer, Bush, Sills and Abernathy from Hickory, N.C. "The second floor will be offices housing the football staff," Trivette said. The exact design is currently being developed through the Physical Plant. "Currently, we're up to the design and development phase and working drawings must be done," Assistant Vice Chancellor for Physical Plant Operation William Winkler said. "As soon as we get the blueprints out, the contract will be awarded," Winkler added. It will be quite some time before .Pet Duals Conf. 1 2 3 .235 4-13 1- 1 3-12 — 1-1 .474 9-10 1- 2 1 - 2 6 - 6 2-2 .471 8- 9 0- 2 — 1- 5 7-4 — — .563 9- 7 1- 1 — — — .500 9- 9 1- 2 — — — .667 10- 5 2- 1 — .400 4- 6 1- 2 - 1 - 0 0-1 .473 53-59 7-11 4-14 8-11 10-8 Appalachian Staff Writer If you look up the definition of the word consistency in the dictionary, you might find Tommy Green's n a m e . 4 5 — — — — — — 8- 7 0- 3 1-0 9-6 — 1-1 9-4 0- 1 0-1 3-3 8-11 11-8 12-7 Three-Set Singles Matches Won-Lost Breakdowns Smith 0-1, Crosby 5-3, Pierre 1-3, Mackin 0-2, Leary 1-5, Pharr 0-2, Riggsbee 1-1 (Mountaineer Totals: 8-18, .308) Overall Doubles Won-Lost Records Overall 5-14 5- 7 6- 4 3- 4 1- 1 2- 2 0- 1 0- 1 1- 0 23-34 Owens Field house will undergo renovations By AUBREY HOOVER Overall Singles Won-Lost Records Players Tim Smith/Roderick Pierre Sean Crosby/Dan Mackin David Pharr/David Riggsbee Sean Crosby/David Riggsbee David Pharr/Kevin Leary David Pharr/Dan Mackin Kevin Leary/David Smith Kevin Leary/David Riggsbee Team TOTALS growth of ASU necessitates the expansion.

The team clinched a spot in the Southern Conference Tourna­ ment, to be held in Asheville April 29 through May 1, by winning two of three games against Virginia Military. Green blasted his sixth homerun of the season against the Keydets, col­ lected his 38 RBI, and increased his batting average to a more than respec­ table .414. In addition, he extended his hitting streak to an amazing 24 games. For his outstanding efforts, Green is The Appalachian's Athlete of the Week. "I try not to worry about the streak, but that is easier said than done. Once I step up to the plate 1 put the streak out of my mind, and it comes down to my ability against the ability of the opposing pitcher," Green said. Green, a senior from High Point is a criminal justice major at ASU. He will be on schedule to graduate after completing an internship with the High Point Police Department this summer. * J Appalachian Photo by ASU SID Tommy Green "I plan on taking a job with the High Point Police Department after my internship. And eventually, I would like to work for the State Bureau of Investigations," Green said. Green would also like a shot at pro­ fessional baseball, and if given the op­ portunity, he would delay his criminal justice career. "If the operation on my foot goes well, I'd jump at the opportunity at a professional baseball tryout. But right now, my primary goal is to win the Southern Conference Tournament," Green said. Green's 24-game hitting streak is even more remarkable given the fact the first baseman has been playing on a fractured foot since early in the season. With the win Sunday over VMI that clinched the spot in the Southern Conference Tourney, the Apps upped their record to 26-12. ASU will enter the double-elimination tournament as the number-one seed from the North Division if East Tennessee State can win one of three games from VMI this weekend. The Mountaineers have yet to win a Southern Conference Tournament during Green's four-year stint in the baseball program. And after strug­ gling through the regular-season, Green feels the team is finally starting to jell and play up their potential. "I think we're going to win it this time. The Southern Conference Championship is something we've wanted for a long time and I think this could be our year," Green said. One thing is for sure. No one can take away the amazing season Tom­ my Green has had. He's accomplished more in a year than some players do in two or three years. It's possible that Green could finish the year with a 30-game hitting streak and a Southern Conference Title, and do it all on one healthy foot. Apps' rugby club uses elegant violence on Field When you hear the words "Elegant Violence" you probably know that the ASU rugby team isn't far behind. These players may look like a bunch of tough guys who thoroughly enjoy dislocating shoulders and breaking backs, but they like to refer to themselves as simple "gentlemen" who like to play a rough sport. And gentlemen they are (much to my sur­ prise!). I'm sure many of you have asked, "What kind of person plays rugby?" Like I once did, I bet you're thinking "mentally ill!" "People from all walks of life play rugby. It is the only sport no one rides the bench."

"Any construction will create some interference," Trivette said.

It's true Before now I thought you had to be half crazy to get out there with absolutely no equipment and sav "Hey guys, tackle me! In a re­ cent interview I discovered rugby has a lower percentage of injuries than ?oo<3,.h°uSh. Who would h„»e believed it? Don Cornwell, of the team says, "People from all walks of life play rugby. It is the only sport no one rides the bench!" When asked what the ASU rugby team would like to say to the student body, their response was less than typical: "Be kind to the animals.. .date a Rugby player!" The team has come a long way since their founding in 1977. They were then known as simply "Aho" (no, really). This was a pet name given to them from the Aho Gap in Boone, where they had various "social func­ tions." Today, rugby is officially recogniz­ ed and supported as a Club Sport by ASU's Intramural Department. The team seized the 1987 State Rugby Championship and have hopes for a repeat in the fall season of '88. The team currently holds a 6-6 record for the spring, but they have undergone competition a bit different from that of the fall. State Men's Rugby Clubs and tournaments have given the team quite a challenge, but they have come through "elegantly" as usual. We would like to recognize the graduating seniors on the team: William Kirkland, Russ Coleman, Robert King, and Bobby Stone. Congratulations for a great season, guys in . AppolodWon rWo h, Kltn Hwwwll APPLYING THE HEAT: Mountaineer fans look on as the ASU pitchers warm up before the game. ASU has fared well this year, producing a record of 26-12 overall. In addition, the team is in first place in the North Division of the Southern Con- ference. Coach Jim Morris, who reached the 400-win mark this year, hopes to win the con­ ference tournament that begins in Asheville on April 29.

JARRETT Appalachian Columnist Registration was much more efficient this semester than in the past. The Registrar s Office previously said it would take some time to get the new system running smoothly, and it looks as though that day has arrived. The previous problems with drop-add have now been solved. Next year, students will have the opportunity to attend drop-add for twjo days instead of one. \ Anytime a new system is implemented, there will undoubtedly be .-Some degree of skepticism. Those critics of the new system have been proven wrong. Students this semester experienced a quick efficient way To register. •' computer system allows students to see exactly what classes in •which they are enrolled. It is nice for students to have automatic assurance that they have the classes of their choice. The computer .eliminates the waiting period and expedites class scheduling tremen­ dously. -. Freshmen and sophomores may still experience some difficulty in •enrolling for upper-level courses; however, access to General College courses continues to be easily available to underclassmen. • The computer system has certainly facilitated the entire scheduling process for both students, faculty and administrators. • ASU has greatly benefited students by providing this badly needed service. BLOOM COUNTY America is frequently called the land of the free and the home of the brave. If this is the case then why are so many people scared of allowing freedom of entertainment?

I grew up in the Lutheran Church, learning of Martin Luther's Protes­ tant Reformation and the important concepts advanced by him. Luther's concept of "justification through faith" has affected many Protestant believers. Recently, I spoke with a person of the Jewish belief who pointed out what he considered to be problems in the Christian religion. His criteria for judgement of Christians was our ac­ tions. He pointed out persons who professed to be Christians, yet engag­ ed in immoral actions, and who con­ tinually broke one or more of the Ten Commandments. I quickly replied that in my opinion these persons were not Christians. However, after some thought, 1 have come to see that I am unable to judge or determine whether they are Christians by their actions. Martin Luther wrote "The gospel demands no works to make us holy and redeem us. Indeed, it condemns such works, and demands only faith in Christ, because He has overcome sin, death, and hell for us." Paul in his first letter to the church in Corinth wrote the immoral, idolaters, adulterers, sexual perverts thieves, greedy, drunkards, revilers,' and robbers "were washed, you (they) were sanctified, you (they) were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the spirit of our God." (1 Cor. 6:11) Faith, or as my professor states, rust, allows one to reach a new orien­ tation or understanding of the world we live in. Through faith we are able to see the real world which is God's world. In this new perceptual and spiritual awareness we come to the understanding that while no immoral action is right, we are endlessly orgiven for all of our actions As our faith grows stronger we see hat our way of life changes to meet the real woerldlrThroUnhdert,Standing °f of faith world.

"I am extremely upset about the decision. It is nothing personal and I'm not trying to lash out at SGA but I feel there was a better qualified candidate," former Director of Mountaineer Escort Charles Ledbetter said. Mountaineer Escort was established in 1986 to provide security and protection for students. Escorts and receptionists work Thursday through Sunday five hours a night answering students' calls and accom­ panying them to their destinations. Ledbetter has been director of Moun­ taineer Escort since 1986. The two ap­ plicants for next year's director were David Hiller and Joe Monk. "I think it was a great injustice to Joe Monk who worked all year to be director and I stand behind him," Ledbetter said. "I feel he was the best choice. I had no qualms and I knew he could do a fantastic job. He worked for Mountaineer Escort for two years and gave us a lot of good ideas and input all year long," he added. After reviewing the applications and con­ ducting interviews David Hiller was selected as the director for the 1988-1989 academic year. "David Hiller is the best person for the job in our opinion," President Elect Gary Greene said. "David had more time to com­ mit to the job." Applicants were selected on the basis of GPA, submitted applications, experience and interviews. David Hiller would not comment on the escort service at this time. Green addressed accusations that the selecton was based on the result of the previous SGA presidential election. "I had no knowledge that either one of them (the applicants) were on a particular side in the elections," Greene said. "We didn't owe anybody any political favors." Ledbetter feels that because Monk was a Watson/Schoonmaker supporter that this might have affected Greene's decision. "I think there possibly could have been some political favortism," Ledbetter said. Seven receptionists and five escorts resigned their positions as of April 12. "I didn't agree with the choice and as a group we chose to protest and to show we didn't agree with the decision," former Mountaineer Escort Terry Hales said. "I feel what we did was right. I don't have any regrets and I hope they can find some other escorts because I think it is a worthwhile service," he added. Vice President Adelaide Beeker expressed discontent with those escorts who resigned. "I'm disappointed because those in­ dividuals made a committment to the students and SGA for this entire year. They could have handled it in a better way," Beeker said. "How are we supposed to get the ad­ ministration to appropriate funds to this program (to eventually pay the escorts) when something like this happens?" she ad­ ded. Since the resignations SGA has been able to temporarily replace the seven recep­ tionists and five escorts for the remainder of the semester. Volunteers will be needed for next year. Under Ledbetter's two year direction the program expanded to include an average of 40 calls per week and six to seven calls per night. Informative flyers were sent to students promoting the service and a more thorough screening process was developed for applicants. "Charles has done a lot with the escort this year," Hales said. Although he resigned Ledbetter feels strongly about the program and would like to see it survive. "1 hope (David Hiller's) staff is as loyal as mine was," Ledbetter said. The Greene/Callis administration would like to see further improvements including starting the service earlier in the fall semester and more recognition for the escorts. "We want to see a lot of things in the pro­ gram improve," Greene said. "We have a lot of high expectations for next year." Honors luncheon held for outstanding students By NICOLE PARSONS AppalaeklM Nm Editor Thirty students were recognized for their academic excellence at a luncheon in Welbom Hall Friday. The luncheon was held to honor the top ten students in each of the upperclasses. Each student was presented a plaque based on grade point average and other criteria. "They had to have a minimum GPA of 3.85 out of a 4.0 scale. This is outstanding academic achievement," Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs Dr. Harvey Durham said. "They are indeed the brightest of our best," he added. The other criteria included that the student be a full-time student and have attended ASU for at least a year. "This has allowed persons to demonstrate that they are a top student," Associate Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Barbara Daye said. In addition to students and their relatives attending Chancellor Dr. John Thomas was there to welcome everyone. Also attending were Dean of the College of Education Dr. Ben Strickland, Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Dr. Dave Mclntire, Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, Dr. William Byrd and Vice Chancellor for Business Affairs Ned Trivette. The key note speaker was former ASU graduate Kevin Corbin, now a member of the ASU Board of Trustees. Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs Dr. Harvey Durham recognized the students.

Prospective students learn about ASU at rally By TOM McBRAYER Appalachian Staff Writer An ASU Alumni Rally was held at the Sheraton in Boone last Tuesday night. The rally was designed to give prospective students and their families an opportunity to visit the university and speak with various university officials. Representatives from Financial Aid, Residence Life, Admissions, athletics and academics were available to answer questions. The rally was also for faculty, staff alum­ ni and other interested people. "The Rally is a gathering of the Ap­ palachian family," Alumni Affairs Director Barbara Poovey said. "The night is for fun and fellowship." A slide show was presented by Mike Romiger and the Student Development staff. Student entertainment was provided by June Haney, Tracy Jecker and Lori Groce who sang songs from the 1950's. "We have outstanding student entertain­ ment," Poovey said. "We are very proud of the girls." Assistant Director of Alumni Affairs Todd Campbell stressed the importance of alumni gatherings and rallies. "It's really a valuable program because we're really trying to stay in touch with these groups (of alumni)," Campbell said. "The Rally is a gathering of the Appalachian family." Barbara Poovey Alumni Affairs Director "It's a good fellowship for the alumni," he added. Other alumni rallies are held throughout the state in places such as Asheville, Raleigh/Durham, Greensboro, WinstonSalem and Wilkesboro. Student attendance at rallies is important because they have the opportunity to become familiarized with ASU. "This allows the prospective student to learn more about the university," Poovey said. At the end of the rally, Chancellor John Thomas addressed the group. The rally was one of eight that the univer­ sity sponsors each year. Officials seemed pleased with the crowd attendance of 275. .

New discrimination law may have little effect (CPS)— The new law to force colleges not to discriminate will probably not change things in the near future for campus women and minorities. Colleges are currently trying to provide equal opportunities for people and it is not expected that the U.S. Dept. of Education, which is supposed to enforce the law, will pursue it aggressively. "(The law is) a positive step in ensuring what already exists in practice," lawyer for the American Council on Education Sheldon Steinbach said. On March 22, Congress overrode Presi­ dent Reagan's veto to enact the Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1988. The legislation cut off federal funds to campuses that discriminate on the basis of gender, race, age or physical disability. President Reagan had vetoed the bill 2 weeks earlier, saying it gave the federal government too much power to meddle in private affairs. The law "restores" an older policy—Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972—that also let the government punish discriminating colleges by cutting off their funds. The act prompted schools, fearful of losing federal funding, to funnel more resources into women's sports, recruit more female faculty members and institute affir­ mative action plans. Officials at Pennsylvania's Grove City College and Michigan's Hillsdale College, however, sued, asserting that Title IX gave the government license to intrude in their affairs. In 1984, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed, and said only specific programs that receiv­ ed federal money—and not the entire in­ stitution—should be subject to penalties. Citing the decision, the U.S. Dept. of Education, which had the power to in­ vestigate and sue colleges for discriminatory practices, dropped probes of scores of cases of alleged discriminiation at colleges such as South Dakota State, Idaho State, Dekalb Community College and the universities of Vermont, Alabama and Mississippi. Now that the decision is overturned, however, some question whether the Educa­ tion Dept. will pursue such cases anyway. "1 don't think this Department of Educa­ tion was particularly aggressive even before the Grove City decision," National Women's Law Center member Marcia Greenberger said. "But at this stage, in light of the ringing endorsement given by Congress, I hope the department will take its obligations seriously," she added. Paul Wood of the Education Dept. refus­ ed to comment or to say whether the depart­ ment would become more aggressive in in­ vestigating campus discrimination com­ plaints. "There are very strong forces entrenched on campuses that will make sure institutions live up to their responsibilities. " Sheldon Steinbach Lawyer for the American Council of Education He did say the new law mighf make it easier to pursue cases. "We won't have to investigate where funds were sent,"Woods said. Though women faculty members nation­ wide still earn only 70 percent of what their male counterparts do, Greenberger con­ tended most colleges do not need the further prod of the federal law. Greenberger said it will probably inspire them to further review their programs to prevent discriminatory practices. Steinbach was similarly confident cam­ puses no longer discriminate much, despite a March 17 ruling forcing California State Polytechnic University at San Luis Obispo to pay $20,000 in damages to a staffer who suffered 4 years of sexual harrassment. "There are very strong forces entrenched on campuses that will make sure institutions live up to their responsibilities. The reversal of the Grove City decision provides them with practical relief," said Steinbach. "But the spirit of Title IX is embodied in the way schools already operate," he add­ ed. Grove City College refused to process student aid money after it won its 1984 court case, and will probably not be greatly af­ fected. "Grove City College will continue its historic commitment to civil rights and will continue to reject federal dollars, and it will .continue to champion the independence of private institutions," Presiden' Charles S. MacKenzie said. �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDA V, APRIL 19, 1988 ROTCprovides child safety program By STANNA SIMANDLE and eyes, nicknames, and birthmarks) members also took photographs of The honors members of ASU's each child and fingerprints for each ROTC program, Scabbard and Blade, child's parents. conducted Operation Safeguard at "The service was targeted to a Parkway Elementary School last public school and to be helpful to Thursday. children and their parents," said Operation Safeguard was a public Principal of Parkway Elementary service project sponsored by Scab­ Gary Childers. bard and Blade that provided basic Childers said that many efforts identification for parents and their made Operation Safeguard possible. children.

Appalachian Staff Writer "We estimated 350 children took advantage of the program. That's a good number. The enrollment at Parkway (Elementary School) is about 495. Some parents even brought their pre-schoolers. I feel good about the response it received," Childers said. A greater number of younger children participated in Operation Safeguard than did seventh and eighth graders. "The seventh and eighth graders are older, and can take care of themselves better. We expected less response from them," Childers said. "Due to the problems of our times it is necessary to have a complete record of your child at a moments notice," Project Coordinator for Scabbard and Blade Diana Johnson said. Programs similar to Operation Safeguard have occurred in Watauga County before when the Watauga County Sheriff's Department and the Watauga County Children's Council joined together several years ago. This is the first time that the ROTC has sponsored such a program. Depending on what service projects Scabbard and Blade decides to do next year, Operation Safeguard may or may not take place again. Childers said members of Scabbard and Blade were very courteous, helpful, and worked well with the children. "I'd like to take this opportunity to thank those students that helped in the service. They were friendly and courteous with all the kids and deserve to be recognized for their ef- t forts," Childers added. Senior class commitl plans graduation evpr By SHELLEY KAEHR • «i raitn.

Assistant Director 0f the Development Center n: spoke to the spoxe to the committ» risk management tech "One of the Appalachian Staff Writer The Career Planning and Place­ ment Center and the Counseling and Psychological Services Center have joined efforts to establish the first student-run career counseling service. Peer Career began operation last month with a staff of eight trained students and professional counselors. Operating hours vary, but the service is generally open Monday through Friday in the morning and Tuesday evenings on the second floor of the Student Union. Director of Counseling and Psychological Services, Dr. Donald Sanz, said one-third of the students at ASU are undecided about an academic major. Out of the remain­ ing two-thirds, one-half are unsure about the major they have chosen. They may need some informal, career exploration assistance which the counselors at Peer Career can help them with. The service also addresses the drop­ out problem. Sanz said students who begin doubting their career decisions often drop out of college. One way to change this pattern is to intervene with high-access, high visibility 1 counseling programs such as Peer Career. "Continuing to be undecided, frustrated and uncomfortable tends to cause them (students) to drop out. Many of these people are smart, intelligent people," he said. A similar program Sanz adopted at the Univer­ sity of Toledo resulted in a 50 percent decrease in the drop-out rate. It will take a full year of operation to assess the effects of ASU's program. Students are likely to see the counseling center in the Student Union frequently. Sanz said easy access and high visibility means students can walk in the door and start talking to someone in a comfor­ table manner. Rather than going through the has­ sle of making appointments with strangers and waiting days or even weeks to get counseling, a student can contact trained personnel right away. Peer Career provides the benefit of talking to a counselor while career decision anxiety is being experienced rather than afterward. Sanz said students may seek counseling for any reasons they feel valid. "They might be undecided, or maybe they aren't doing well in their major courses, or they're under parental pressure to choose a direc­ tion," he said. Trained paraprofessional counselors at the center can assist students in solving these problems. Sanz is happy with the response to the program and the quality of the staff. "We're real excited about our crew of para-professional counselors. They're all very good people from a variety of academic majors and geographic locations," Sanz said. The program can't succeed without qualified people to run it. "The quali­ ty of the people is the quality of the program," he said. Sanz currently supervises a full staff of counselors at Peer Career.

A lot of consideration goes into selecting and training counselors for the program. The quality which Kathy Sack, Assistant Director of Career Planning and Placement, looks for most in a volunteer counselor, regardless of major, is a willingness to help other people. Peer Counselors are selected also for their own career decision-making experience. "Students who have made their own personal career decisions possess greater empathy for other students in making the same decisions," Sack said.

Miller Blast from the past - "Horn in the West" By ANDREA ANDERSON tf Ditsydames areamenace to campus just when I thought the women's movement was going somewhere and we were getting a little respect, suddenly ditsy females are popular again. Hard to believe, isn't it? I'll admit I don't know everyone on campus, but it seems like some (not all) girls I've met at ASU just don't seem to have both oars in the water. Is it possi­ ble some female inhabitants of this campus are running around with dead space between their ears? Women are supposed to be get­ ting educations, asserting themselves and all that good stuff, but I keep running into people of the female persuasion who are making a mockery of the advances women have made in the last 20 years. These girls punctuate their sentences with expressions like, "what do I know," or "we'll do it this way, if you want to." Try­ ing to follow a lead like that could drive a body insane. How can anyone be taken seriously who makes remarks like that? I take them for exactly what they tell me—what do they know? This ditsy female trend wouldn't bother me if these gals were Jo(sephine) college student, just hangin' out at ASU for four years—you know the type. But some of them hold important stu­ dent positions (which I hope means they're of above average intelligence). More importantly, this could mean that they are making decisions that affect the entire student body. I don't know about you, but I don't want any student represent­ ing my views to say to Chancellor Thomas, "We're going to fight your decision, but what do I know." To borrow an overused but appropriate expression, let's get a grip here. Being silly and giggly and dancing around an opinion on an important issue was fun; that is, it was fun when I was 15 years °'d and no one took you serious­ ly anyway. "Acting dumb" sure made it easier to talk to guys 'hen.

But, somehow, in the words of Daniel Boone, it is "S'morn'at." The many people who have been involved with Horn in the West since 1951 have formed a family over the last thirtyseven years. It is the third oldest outdoor drama in the nation, just behind Unto These Hills and the Lost Colony. Each year outdoor dramas play to more people than Broadway plays. Some staff members at Horn in the West gathered recently to discuss this season's show. These production meetings have been going on twice monthly since December 21. Executive Producer W.R. Winkler III commented on the message of Horn in the West. "It is a message of remembering and protecting the freedom that we have," he said. The play highlights what the people of the southern Ap­ palachian Region have done to pro­ tect this freedom. People came to see this play out of curiosity and out of "an interest in their heritage," Winkler said. The show has plenty of dancing, and singing every year. Choreographer Mark Barber has been with Horn in the West for 15 years. He said the dancing is "very 1776." "Horn" begins with a minuet, followed by folk influenced square dances. Barber also used some ballet influence moves in the show, making the show spectacular with "lifts." There are also Indian war dances and a fire hoop dance, where the actor has to jump through a flaming hoop. Auditions for singers, dancers and ac­ tors were held recently. "I try to make it (auditions) too hard," Barber said. The reason behind this is simple. "We need people who can pick up things fast," he said. Approximately half of the dancers are ASU students. Barber said one of the greatest pro­ blems is finding enough good male dancers for the parts, but this, like all other aspects of the show, generally does come together. With the exception of percussion instruments, all the music is done acappella (without musical accom­ paniment), Music Director Jim Bumgardner said. At auditions, he looks for people with enough voice maturity to project their voices in an See BLAST Page 6 AppalCARTgives the community a much needed lift By TRAVIS TART Appalachian Staff Writer Boone is the only place on earth where the snow hits your face from every direction. Who wants to walk? AppalCART is there for disgrun­ tled Wataugans and students alike. It began operation in January of 1980. ASU started the service to serve as a campus area rapid transit sytem. Today, AppalCART not only serves ASU, but it provides service to Watauga County as well. Chris Turner, Transportation Director, is the head of the AppalCART organization. "AppalCART served as the campus bus system for approximately two years and ironically, the same month as AppalCART started the Watauga County Commissioners formed the Watauga County Transportation Authority, on paper," Turner said. He added that eighteen months later, the Authority was working on rural community service. ASU and the Watauga County Transportation Authority decided to merge their two systems. By the sum­ mer of 1982, AppalCART community routes had started operation. "The Watauga County Transportation Authority adopted the name AppalCART for its' business," Turner sajd. He went on to say that from the fall of 1982 until now, AppalCART was a county depart­ ment—but that has changed. "In July of 1986, AppalCART became an autonomous authority, separate from the county," Turner said. The local governing body of AppalCART is the Board of Transportation Authority. AppalCART is funded by ASU, Watuaga County, and the City of Boone. AppalCART also brings in some of its' funds through charted and ski contracts. Only forty to fortyfive percent of the organization's funds come from the federal govern­ ment, and that support is on the decline. In addition to human services, fixed routes, charter and ski resort service—AppalCART also works with private businesses and other organizations providing them with transportation services. A large number of people use AppalCART. "Last year we carried close to 300,000 passengers," Turner said. He added that this year he expects the same numbers. "About a third of those are ski related," he said. Numbers of riders are kept each month, and the number of "passenger trips" are on the in­ crease." The number of drivers vary due to the ski season. AppalCART employs three part-time drivers, eight full-time drivers, a driver mechanic, and a driver dispatcher. The total number of staff varies from 21 to 36, depend­ ing on the time of year. To become an AppalCART driver, a person must meet the qualifications. "We put advertisements in the newspaper, saying that we're seeking drivers—and we receive applications through the Employment Security Commission. Then we go through the applications. The form itself sort of details what we're looking for," Turner said. "The drivers are really nice people. They're always friendly." Jeff Paisley, Sophomore An oral interview is then given to the applicant after the form has been received, questions concerning driv­ ing experience, driving record, and personal habits in relation to drugs and alcohol are asked. "Our policy is that if you're driving for AppalCART you have to be totally of sound mind and body, and we're not going to tolerate anything less," Turner said. After the interview a driving test must be taken, and finally, the potential driver must take a physical examina­ tion to complete the application process. Routes are decided by surveys of students and people in the communi­ ty. And also by looking at the com­ munity itself. "We basically try to make the best match of residences and destinations. The frequency of stops is limited by the amount of funding you have, and how many vehicles you have," Turner said. He went on to say that AppalCART has 25 vehicles available, and that a public hearing is held every year, to listen to sugges­ tions for routes. Mr. Turner has been transportation director since September of 1985, and he attended ASU. He also attended Carolina University, where he received a degree in journalism, radio-television and motion pictures. He received another degree from ASU specializing in mechanical energy and botanical gardening. He then attend­ ed graduate school where he took geography planning to help qualify him for his present job. Drivers and students get a lot out of the AppalCART system. Tim McGuire, a native Wataugan, is a driver for AppalCART. McGuire feels that his work is very fulfilling. "I enjoy the aspect of working with the elderly and the handicapped. It's very rewarding work, and to get paid for it makes it ideal," McGuire said. He also likes helping students. "I also like working with ASU students. The service helps them a lot, and they real­ ly use the service, especially in the winter," McGuire said. Many students feel that the AppalCART is a very convenient transportation alternative. Kim Stallings, a junior majoring in Media Advertising, feels that AppalCART is a great help to her. "My car is parked Watson documentary to be shown By DR. BILL WARD Special 10 The Appalachian Good documentary films generally do one of two things. They either show us things we've heard about but never seen, or they take something familiar and capture its essen­ tials so thoroughly as to give us a quite literal sense of deja vu. Joe Murphy and Kevin Balling's Doc and Merle manages to do both. Its familiar component is the music, enough music to leave Watson fans with the impression that they've just attended a concert by Doc's troupe as it existed before Merle's death in 1985. Its originality consists in its fascinating attempt to bring Doc's own memories to the screen. Over the years, Doc has patiently re-told interviewers, admirers, and drop-in visitors about the significant figures in his musical past. In a few cases, these figures have had conspicuous careers of their own: for example, Ralph Rinzler, the traditional picker and Smithsonian musicologist who "discovered" Doc in the early sixties and introduced him to a national audience. Others, however, have until now remained prominent only in Doc's reminiscences of them, names without publicly recognizable faces and voices. Doc and Merle goes a long way toward rectifying matters. It provides still photos of Gaither Carlton, Clarence "Tom" Ashley, and other musically influential playing partners who did not live to see Doc achieve full legendary status. But when Doc's old friends could be found, Murphy and Balling have sought them out for on-camera interviews and reunion jam ses­ sions that bring us as close to Doc's musical beginnings as we are likely ever to come. Other notable rarities add their own parts to the film's interest and value: a duet by Doc and wife Rosalee; a vintage clip of the a cappella Daniel Prayed with which Doc, Ashley, Fred Price, and Clint Howard electrified urban folkies twenty-five years ago; dramatic visual proof of Doc's ability to get along just fine, despite his blindness, in a domestic world where nails have to be hammered and storm windows installed; even an extended commentary on himself and his father by Merle, whose taciturnity was as famous as his slide guitar. Although the loss of Merle inevitably haunts its latter sequences, Doc and Merle remains a joyful celebration of the Watsons and their work. Many of us have treasured our own memories of them. Now we share in theirs as well. The documentary video Doc and Merle will be shown 7-30 p m., Friday, April 23, in 02 Duncan Hall, as part of the meeting of the North Carolina Folklore Society.

So, I use the AppalCART," Stallings said. Jeff Paisley, a sophomore majoring in Leisure Studies, also feels that is is easier for him to use the AppalCART, but he also likes the drivers. "The drivers are really nice people. They're always friendly," Paisley said. The parking policies will have a big impact on the AppalCART system. Turner believes that the new policies will boost ridership, while at the same time, helping to reduce the traffic problems Boone is experiencing. "It could be a very positive thing, I hope that it will be. It can certainly allow for growth in the transportation area," Turner said. He went on to say that plans for expansion are already in the works. One example, on December 7, 1987 the AppalCART headquarters became a Greyhound ticket agent. The idea is to interconnect AppalCART with Greyhound. Mr. Turner feels that his job has been a great experience. "It's been a very interesting experience for me, because there has been an evolu­ tionary process. It hasn't been just the static same old thing, day in and day out, it's always something new. The whole area is growing, and the needs are growing. The challenge is there. I think the image of public transporta­ tion has been improving over the years from its' first start," Turner said. Snapand popoffers JROTC teams a shot at success Snap and pop returned to Varsity and Broome-Kirk gymnasiums Saturday, April 16, as Appalachian State University's national champion drill team, Pershing Rifles held it's annual JROTC drill meet. Seventeen teams from three states participated in individual, duet, squad, and platoon events in regulation and exhibition (fancy) drill. Teams were encouraged to tour the campus when they were not on the drill floor. However, most teams seemed to be more interested in watching their competition. "The JROTC drill meet has two purposes," PR "A winner is a well member Randy dressed, sharp, proficient Gunter says. drill team, who exhibits "One is to pull high school teams professionalism and a to the drill meet in desire to win." order for them to David Sink be able to compete Exhibition Jjudge ^t their peers° Secondly it ————• enables the members of Per­ shing Rifles to critique and evaluate drill and ceremony in JROTC drill teams in order to better their own drill." According to Pershing Rifle Commander Greg Jicha, the JROTC drill meet is used to promote drill and ceremony and to recruit students who are proficient in drill and ceremony to ASU. The national society of Pershing Rifles team members judge the JROTC competition. "A winner is a well dressed, snap, proficient drill team, who exhibits profes­ sionalism and a desire to win," David Sink, exhibition judge said. According to judge Jon Roark, "A winner is precise, follows the commands, shows snap and pop and executes skills in a military manner." The first three places in each event were awarded trophies. The overall winner at the meet was Goldsboro High School drill team. �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY, APRIL 19, 1988 Spring Expo gives students a chance to strut their stuff Senior exhibit winners are a diverse crowd TRUE BLUE WINNERS: Spring Expo '88 winners have been announced and the three top scoring seniors will receive an award of $250 and also the chance to compete in an invitational exhibit.

Four names synonymous with ex­ peditions. Soon, names like McAllister, Smith, Burchell and Houston will join the expedition list. The above students and twelve others from ASU are a part of the first ASU expedition taking place on the French Broad River. Students taking LS 3384 Expeditioning are planning and executing the expedition. "We're letting students do most of the work," Program Coordinator of Outdoor Adventure Programs Kim Sherill said. "The main goal of the class is for students to plan and ex­ ecute the expedition." Sherill, along with Ted Jones, are the staff responsible for getting the class underway. After approval from Leisure Studies, Sherill and Jones started planning a canoe trip down the French Broad. "It's been on the books for a while but it's never been taught," Sherill said. "The idea is to teach a class and make it more meaningful by taking the students out for an extended period of time." The French Broad was chosen simply because it is one of the oldest rivers in the U.S. Also, the expedition plans to work with the French Broad River Association in cleaning up the river, which used to be one of the dir­ tiest. The students taking the class are a diverse group having varying degrees of experience in this type of activity. A variety of majors make up the class including Anthropology, Biology and Psychology majors. Most all the students are taking the class to learn how to plan an expedi­ tion, improve canoeing skills and just have some fun. "I'm not only looking to learn skills," Psychology major Debbie McAllister said, "but to have fun too." McAllister intends to take her ex­ periences from the class and apply them in counseling juvenile delin­ quents in an outdoor setting. The class seems to be very popular with the students. "People seem to be pretty excited about getting out there," Jones said. "They are beginning to come together as a group." Students are currently waiting to enroll in the class and Jones feels the potential of the expedition class to be great. "There is potential in the future to go to the Everglades or the Grand Tetons," Jones said. "And it doesn't have to be canoes. It could be backpacking or bicycling as well There's nothing to stop us." Sherill and Jones have extensive ex­ perience in canoeing and other out­ door activities. Both are certified canoeists by the American Red Cross and the American Canoeimr A tion. Sherill is deeply involved ii and was previously an instru the National Outdoor Lea< School in Wyoming. She ta variety of courses such as • mountaineering and sea kayak: Jones has a recreational from ASU and has been invo outdoor recreation for ten yea experience includes one year s t i the North Carolina Outward School. Students aren't required t< any experience for the class. T1 is learning first aid topics ant skills needed for canoeing. The ing will begin in Class 1 (flat) and end in Class 3 (moderate water). Sherill and Jones feel the <= tion will be a huge success. "I'm real excited about the 1 this group," Sherill said, "T1 real motivated and that's th e making this expedition work . * "I believe in what I'm doing," he said. The staff of choreographers, and directors are not afraid to make changes in the show. As a matter of fact, they constantly revise and up­ date it to make it current with society. Approaching the fortieth year of performances, Pilkington said they are ready to "begin to make some good changes." He feels it is important for the public to know that Horn in the West "Isn't a stogy old pagent. It's a real drama," with "a lot of fun and a lot of excitement." DALE IRVIN RAHi RAH!

By CHRIS PHILLIPS Appalachlu Sun Writer Baseball's balks, best and rest Welcome to the 1988 version of Major League Baseball. Like an old boomerang, no matter how far one throws his baseball memories, every April brings a fresh crop of rookies and memories. Baseball always , returns. This year's incarnation is somewhat marred by the balk epidemic. Just once, I'd like to see a rules change or interpreta­ tion that favored pitchers. Yes, we know fans enjoy high run production but baseball is baseball; I want to see offenses earn their runs. Last year, the talk around the league was about a juiced up ball. I contend that the quality of pitching combined with the shape of the strike zone conspired to produce inflated offensive statistics. If the umpires would only en­ force the written strike zone as well as the written balk rule, the pitchers might have a fighting chance of holding their ERA's under four. In the ballparks to­ day, pitchers must groove the ball just to get a strike. In 1988, pitchers can't throw to first base, get a high called strike, or throw inside. Pitchers also can't get hitters out. Enough about the negatives in baseball; let's talk about the positive. The players"'are what make baseball the greatest pastime on earth. So, for the American League, here are my greatest infield players by posi­ tion: What ever happened to baseball, our national pastime? Baseball used to be listed with allAmerican items: hotdogs, apple pie and Chevrolet. Now baseball is listed with all monetary items such as con­ tracts, arbitration, and most of all cash. It took baseball 110 years to score it's millionith run when Bob Watson crossed the plate in the midSeventies. Now the "top" players score their millionith dollor by midseason. Back in the early days, when the era of modern baseball began (1900-1919), the players must not have played for the money. Most lived just above poverty level and were paid a hundred or two every month. Ty Cobb, the greatest of this or maybe any era, was baseball's first millionaire. But it took him almost all of his quarter-century career to earn that figure. This was the time of the worst event in baseball history, the Black Sox Scandal of 1919. There could not have been a worse event at a worse time. The White Sox were charged with the crime of throwing the World Series. A few of the Sox, who were banished from baseball, gave the sport such a bad name that only a savior could save the game. A savior came from Baltimore, not the sky. Babe Ruth and a livelier baseball saved the game in the people's eyes and caused the first watershed in baseball history. People flocked to the park to see him, and in no time, he was the national hero. In 1928, his salary exceeded that of President Herbert Hoover. To all of his fame and fortune Babe said, "I had a better year than he did." After this, with the exception of the World War II years, salary increases were here to stay. Except for a hand­ ful of players, there was little diversity in salaries. The World War n »nH th* Fifties and Sixties era saw such salary changes as the "Five $100,000 men." Ted Williams and Mickey Mantle were a couple of these. As the Seventies and Eighties approached, salary increases changed from arithmetic to geometric increases. The spark of second water­ shed in baseball history was started by a pitcher named Catfish. The Oakland A's, dynasty of the early to mid-Seventies, had one of the most infamous owners in history, Charlie Finley. Jim "Catfish" Hunter escaped Finley's funny farm by declaring himself a "free agent" to sign with any team. He did leave and signed with George in New York and started pandemonium. The rest of the A's superstars followed. Like an epidemic, the disease of free agency spread through the major leagues. In early 1980, Nolan Ryan became the first "million dollor man," when he signed a four year four million deal with the Astros. Dave Winfield followed the next year with a million and a half. Most of these "Fort Knox" con­ tracts were to be in effect for many years. One can already foresee prob­ lems with marathon contracts. Richie Zisk signed a 10-year, 2.75 million dollar contract with Texas in 1978. It is now 1988 and where is Richie Zisk? Texas should theoretically pay him for this season, but he has not played for years. This problem caused contracts to shorten. This third watershed had an inevitable side-effect, a baseball strike which led to arbitration. Even though contracts shortened (three years max in 1987) still, who is worth what? Today there are players getting what they are worth, Wade Boggs of Boston and Tim Raines of Montreal. Boggs is the perennial batting champ of the A.L. and Raines won the N.L. i" '8* THew men and others are not the problem. There are many underpaid and even more overpaid players. Mark McGuire led the underpaid category as he trounced through a rookie-ofthe-year campaign with a rookie record-setting 49 HR and 118 RBI. What about Roger Clemens, two Cy Youngs in a row and 2-0 with 33 K's this year? In 1987, the year after his MVP year, he earned 650,000 dollars. This slim figure should not be the dominate pitcher's salary, with a 44-13 record the last two years. The publicized problem is the extremely overpaid. Pitcher Dan Quisenberry leads the pack with a 2.4 million doliar-a-year salary, with stats like these 4-1 and eight saves in '87. The Royals paid him $300,000 a save, not bad if it were for me. A player for whom I have great respect, Steve Garvey, was paid 1.4 million in '87. Yes, he was paid $960 an inning and hit one homerun. What a deal! Half the innings are spent in the dugout waiting for his turn at bat, if he plays any games at all. He also had nine RBIs and batted .211. These stats are not worth one million dollars. So what can be done to remedy this problem? In the collective bargaining sessions of 1985, the service require­ ment for arbitration increased from two to three years. In addition, a December 7th deadline was set for the owner's offer of arbitration. If a player is not offered, he can sign or wait until May 1st to sign again. This clause is discouraging. For example, Rich Gedman of the Red Sox missed more than 24 days and was never quite the same 0 HR, 13 RBI, .205). What else can be done? How about paying a year at a time by perform­ ance? Ed Epstein of Baltimore calculates what each player should earn based on production. This hypothetical example uses the player's stats: If the player played for all 27 outs, how many runs would he score? For pitchers, their ERA is used. This system seems better than owners pay­ ing 20 million for inactives like they did in '87, but it is definitely an improvement over the 40 million in 1985. But why pay anything? I am sure George Steinbrenner would love that! Why not pay players what they are worth instead of wasting money on players like pitcher Bruce Sutter, who received 4.13 million in the last three years with nine wins and 26 saves spanning those three years. This game has become a "corpora­ tion" because money has become the winning factor, not the fall classic. Something should be done, but until players stop thinking they are worth more than they are that end will never be achieved. Comparison of Major League Baseball salaries $2,400,000 Pitcher—Roger Clemens. This Boston powerhouse is not only the best pitcher in the American League, he is the best pitcher in baseball. His dominating fastball and control makes him unhittable at times. I shudder to think what he could do in a pitcher's ballpark far away from Fenway. Catcher—Terry Steinbach. Catcher is the weakest position in the League. Steinbach only has two years in the big leagues, but his bat and defense ranks him first. At this point, he is the toughest cat­ cher to run on in the league. First Base—Don Mattingly. This was the easiest choice to make. Mattingly is not only the best first baseman, he is the best player in baseball. A career .331 hitter, Mattingly Possesses good power, a com­ petitive nature, and a gold glove. Second Base—Johnny Ray. This newcomer to the League quickly asserted the skills which made him one of the most underrated players in baseball.

The Keydets took the first game by the score of 12-5, but the Apps bounced back in games two and three to win 9-8 and 8-7. The Moun­ taineer team was led by Darron Healy and Keith Nail at the plate, while Stacey Schneider and Rick Tuttle improved their pitching records. The most outstanding effort this weekend, however, may have been by senior infielder Tommy Green Appalachian Photo by Tomoulo Trlvot who extended his hitting streak to 24 games and blasted his sixth homerun of the year on Saturday. In addition, he is batting .414 for the year and has tallied 38 RBIs. With the victory over VMI, ASU improved its record to 26-12 overall and 9-7 in the Southern Conference. The win this weekend also assured the team a trip to the Southern Conference double-elimination tournament in Asheville on April 29. The division-leading Apps can finish no less than second after conference play is finished this weekend when VMI and ETSU meet for a three-game series. Lady Mountaineers sign three outstanding recruits By PAUL L. CARROLL Assistant Sports Editor The Appalachian State Lady Mountaineer Basketball team has signed three top players from the 1988 recruiting class. Mitzi Yount, Annette Cain, and Glenda Cunningham are the three new additions to ASU's fine program. "Each of these three players come from a quality high school or college program. We know that we have three good people; three quality studentathletes," Head Coach Linda RobinS°"fthink this is going to keep us on the right track," she added. Mitzi Yount comes to ASU from the tradition-rich program at Bandy's High School. Named AP Player of the year, the 5-9 forward will pro­ bably play guard for the Lady Moun­ taineers. "Mitzi is one of the most fun­ damentally sound high-school players in the game. We are really pleased to have someone of Mitzi's ability com­ ing into our program. "She has a silky smooth lefthanded jumper. She also sees the floor well and is an excellent passer. Above that, she works hard on the floor," Robinson said. Annette Cain, a 5-10 forward, at­ tended Southwest Randolph High School where she scored over 2100 points in her career. "I don't know if I've seen a high school player play this year with any more determination than Annette," Robinson said. "She scored most of her points in the paint, but we think she is going to be a bit like Kim Johnson. She is go­ ing to be a person we can put in the three position and give her a little time," she added. "We like her flex­ ibility. It will be an asset to our pro­ gram." Coming from Peace College, 5-11 center Glenda Cunningham brings an impressive junior college resume to ASU. A 26 point per game scorer, Cunningham was named second team All-American. "Glenda is definitely one of the best junior college players in the country. She is a proven rebounder and scorer. She has the tools to come in here and do it immediately. The two years of experience she has at the collegiate level is going to help our team," Robinson sa'd. "Glenda will add a fun dimension to our game." Cunningham, Yount, and Cain are the newest recruits on a championship team. Their play next year could be the key to a repeat of the past two year's success.

BROWN, Editorial Production Manager A thick mist had fallen all over the campus. It was pitch black outside, which probably explains why no one noticed the ominous mist. Two people fell into a crack and came out in Hell (otherwise known as Business Stats.) Dazed, a man stumbled to the edge of the roof, bled a few disgustingly bloody drops from a wound inflicted by something in the mist he couldn't see, and then fell. Across campus, a young woman peered at the Early Pregnancy Test she had hidden in her closet and was stricken numb when it changed from "Negative" to "Positive" in her hand. She was the one—the unfor­ tunate woman to carry the Mist Beast That Ate ASU. No, seriously, folks. Every other columnist in this paper gets to write at least one silly column sometime during the year, it seems, so now it's my turn. Gabba, Gabba, Hey. And all that sh*t. I'm sick of snow. I'm sick of silly personalized license plates. I'm sick of sweatshirts with little puffy cutesie designs on the front made of ozonedestroying chlorofluorocarbons. I'm sick of turning to WASU expecting to hear college music and think­ ing my dial got changed to WQUT by accident, and then realizing that, no, it IS WASU, oh, God. Everyone talks and no one does anything. Why have more and more people started looking like freshmen when they reallv aren't? Why does TLRESA C'HAl.K, Advertising Production Manager Charity support provides enjoyment Recently, several groups have participated in activities to support charitable causes. The Animal Aid concert was held at the Black Diamond Inn to earn money for the Watauga County Humane Society. On Saturday April 23, a CROP Walk will be held to support the Watauga County Hunger Coalition. On April 28, another benefit concert will be held at the Boone Holi­ day Inn to support the Watauga County Hunger Coaliton and the Hospitality House. Performing groups include The Outer Limits, In­ finity, Curb Service, The Alligators, Life After Lunch, Mukeuye Dinkulu, Michelle Dalton and Brad Wheeler. It is refreshing to see the great number of concerned students at ASU who are willing to devote their time, energy and talents to such worth­ while causes. Now concerned students need to support these causes by attending the planned events. A concert is much more entertaining when the money is going to a charity. The groups and organizations involved in the planning and executing of such events should be commended. Not only can students show sup­ port for these events by attending them but by becoming actively in­ volved. Students should walk in the upcoming CROP Walk. It is an ex­ cellent way to help the Hunger Coalition, exercise and have fun. Monetary donations are also a helpful way to support these causes. Help those who are less fortunate and have a good time while doing it. eases parents minds Last week the honors members of the ROTC program, Scabbard and Blade, conducted a helpful program at Parkway Elementary school. The program, entitled Operation Safeguard, provided local parents and children with identification such as photographs, fingerprints and statistical information cards. It is sad to think that the world we live in today is unsafe and protec­ tion methods such as these must be utilized. It is fortunate, however, that there are concerned individuals such as the ROTC members who are willing to devote their time to such programs. This program is worthwhile in many ways; however children should not be taught to fear abduction. They should be taught to be wary of strangers and exercise caution at all times. In reality, only a small percentage of children are abducted by in­ dividuals unknown to the child. Most children are abducted by non­ custodial parents. The ROTC should be commended for their.efforts in this project. The program has certainly eased the minds of some of our local Parents. BLOOM COUNTY VICTORY IN NO/EMBER / * HHP AFFIUATEP To the Editor: In response to Mr. Jordan's letter in your March 29 issue concerning animal rights, I would like to make some comments. Mr. Jordan is absolutely correct in his statement that the use of animals in medical research has helped to conquer disease, and we should be grateful to those animals who gave their lives so that we could enjoy the standard of health which we do. One concern by animal activists, however, is the vast numbers of un­ necessary, repetitive experiments conducted by pseudo-scientists for the purpose of obtaining grant money. Guess who else reaps profit for experimentation? Did you know that annual sales to pharmaceutical companies, government agencies, commercial testing laboratories and universities total $45,000,000 from the Charles River Breeding Labs alone? The primary concern, however, is animal abuse in laboratories. Mr. Jordan claims that committees like the "Institutional Animal Care and / The following is based on a true story of a real ASU student. The name has been changed to protect the embarrassed.

The Animal Welfare Act, regulating treatment of animals in laboratories, went into effect Decembe 23, 1986, but its enforce­ ment was so severely hindered by lack of necessary regulations that Congress passed the Improved Stan­ dards for Laboratory Animals Amendments. Although the regula­ tions were approved by Congress and published in the Federal Register March 31, 1987, the en­ forcement of the amendments has still not been finalized. Most people are not aware that good old applepie Gillette Corporation was exposed by an undercover animal activist. Gillette claimed that "every means is already being taken to ensure that animals used in testing are being treated humanely." But the photographic and written documen­ tation revealed quite a different view. In response to pound animals beins used for research, according to Dr. Neal D. Barnard, Chairman of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine in Washing­ ton, D.C., "Humane euthanasia, properly performed, is a respectful and non-traumatic procedure. To in­ sist that pets must first be sent to laboratories to serve for weeks, months or longer as living illustra­ tions or subjects of experiments is to kill them not once but a thousand times. Sending a pet to a lab is a far different fate from euthanasia in a shelter. Anyone who tells you that the care of laboratory animals is a high priority at most institutions is evidently unaware of the horrible conditions documented by federal investigators at some of the most prestigius medical institutions—The University of California at Berkeley, the City of Hope, the Institution for Behavioral Research, and Columbia University. The difference between the animals' miserable existence before death in a laboratory and euthanasia in a humane shelter is the difference between those who either naturally, or through force of habit or indoctrination, view animals as disposable items, and those who thanklessly care for homeless animals in what are often their last • days on earth." It is only through the continuing > efforts of animal activists that unac­ ceptable conditions are corrected through legislation, and even that is not always possible because of the amount of greed involved by those who reap such high proposed legisla­ tion is the Veal Calf Protection Act (H.R. 2895). At the present time, male dairy calves are removed from their mothers at only 3 to 4 days and placed into tiny, unbedded wooden stalls where there is only enough room to take one step for­ wards or backwards, lie down or stand up. By the time they reach the age of 14 weeks, even lying down may be impossible. The calves are fed a diet low in iron in order to in­ duce a borderline anemia that keeps the flesh pale, as gourmets demand it. The severe restriction of move­ ment and lack of exercise do not allow the calves to ventilate their See ANIMAL Page II Purple sock thief strikes innocent victim by Berke Breathed 'PLEASE ACCEPT THIS SMAU- GIFT TO AIP YOUR Ef FORTS TOWARP tour after we were already scheduled and play a free concert here to make up for it.

Editor in Chief mlH/S /$ WMCWA'S MY CAMPAIGN IS IN TOTAL PISARRAY. \ was pairing her socks, Tina realized that the laundry gremlin had stolen one of her purple socks. (I have a theory about this... time travelers from the future return to the present time and steal things from people who are famous in the future. If you never lose a sock in the dryer, you can rest assured that you will always be a nobody.) Back to the story. Tina resolved ' herself to the fact VieWS that her purple sock was gone f°rever ^ decid­ ed that life would indeed be tolerable t without it. Keeping a stiff upper lip, she finished folding her clothes, did some school work and went to sleep. This courageous performance in the face of such a loss should be an inspiration to us all. Tina got up the next morning and went about the business of everyday life, as if the tragedy of the previous evening had never happened. Her classmates were completely unaware that Tina was mourning the loss of her beloved sock. Lost in thought, Tina was walking near the post office •when she spied a purple sock half buried in the mud. "Hmmmm," she mused. "Someone lost a purple sock." Seconds later the amazing reality struck her, and her inner voice screamed, "Wait, Tina. You lost a purple sock!" twilight ^one music was playing from the Spastic loudly in her head as she patrolled the area, trying to be inconspicuous as she walked past the purple sock time and time again, each time glancing discreetly to determine if this was her sock. She couldn't stand there and stare at the sock, could she? Would you want someone to see you cruising an abandoned sock? Finally Tina decided that this was indeed her sock, and she was afraid. She wanted to retrieve the sock from its horrifying fate, but did not want to be seen res­ cuing the sock. She thought for a moment, then made the only rational decision. She sought out her room­ mates to help her deal with the hellish H'!emma. Tina's roommates were no dif­ ferent than any other roommates. They were eager to go with Tina to offer their support and guidance. Not only that, but they wanted to take photographic equipment along to record the event for posterity (and I strongly suspect, for blackmail pur­ poses). Fleeing in terror, Tina escaped the roommates and their evil camera. Feeling betrayed and frightened, Tina ran toward the spot where her sock lay in the mud, fighting for a future. On the way there, she came up with a brilliant solution to the prob­ lem. She would casually drop a bag on top of the sock and pretend to con­ template the human condition while the people who had seen her drop the bag had vanished. She would then very nonchalantly pick up the bag, and, unbeknownst to the voyeuristic students around her, she would also pick up her purple sock. Any bystander would admire her for being concerned enough about ASU's cam­ pus to pick up this unwanted litter. The plan worked I Tina had the sock in her possession before the Sock Gestapo roommates could arrive with their camera. Our heroine smiled. All was right with the world. Tina disinfected the sock for a cou­ ple of days, then returned it to her sock drawer with its evil twin. Sometimes she wears that very pair of socks, and each time she pulls them onto her feet, she feels a special closeness to one of them. She isn't quite sure which one. This story has one more twist, a twist that not even Tina has been aware of before. Now is the time for my confession. It was I who lurked in the laundry room that fateful even­ ing, and it was I who stole the sock from the dryer. Later, I planted the sock where I knew Tina would see it, and laid in waiting with my jam box for just the right time to play the Twilight Zone theme. Tina's room­ mates were accomplices in my wicked plan. Tina, I know you're out there, reading this, angry with me, and tear­ fully asking, "Why?" Well, I knew that one day I would need to write something for the paper, and wouldn't have any good ideas, so you were added to the ever-growing list of my victims. Tina, I apologize to you from the bottom of my feet. Parking proposal - ideal solution By ERIC D. MILLER CAMPAIGN in confusion.. PLUMMETING.. W&MS PRIBdUNb WEARILY POU/N PA TRAIN.

''9<n ^Y\ ' Appalachian Columnist The other day I was sitting in my room, reading the newest proposals by the ASU administration to im­ prove the parking situation on cam­ pus. As I was sitting there, marveling at these newest pearls of wisdom from the powers that be, something unusual happened... 1 had a vision. And from what I saw I immediately knew it was a vi­ sion of things to come for ASU park­ ing. What I beheld were next year's parking proposals! Alas, I saw a track. Big and blue and towering in the sky. This track ran all over the ASU campus. And on this track rode a white vehicle, carry­ ing hundreds of happy ASU students all over Boone. On the side of the new vehicle I saw printed "APPALRAIL." Then I saw a giant price tag in the sky; it read—tuition increase $4000 per student. Then alas, I had a second vision. I saw the sidewalks all over town mov­ ing! And I saw happy ASU students riding along to class, no longer needing cars at all. On the sidewalks I saw written "APPALATOR." And again I saw a giant price tag in the sky; it read—tuition increase $10,000 per student. Then a grim vision came to me. All of ASU was concrete, and cars were parked everywhere. There was no grass, no trees, no historical land­ marks, all was cement. And I saw a giant plaque in the sky; it read—"no one cared what the campus became, now they will be very sorry forever." And then alas a fourth vision. I saw train tracks running all over Boone. And I saw a grand train carrying hap­ py ASU students all over Boone. On See PARKING Page 10 �10 THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDA Y, APRIL 19, 1988 Parking Continued from Page 9 the side of the train I saw a sign; it read—"come ride the new Tweetsie railroad in—ills new, practical loca­ tion! (payed for bv "APPALTWEET" Inc.) But wait alas, I saw a new ASU, and a new traffic solution! There were lots of relatively inexpensive perimeter parking lots all around ASU. And running to each of these parking lots and to various areas of campus were lots of new appalcarts! And there were lots of happy ASU students riding the new buses, for they now only had to wait 10 minutes to ride the new system. And all was basically well. Then I awoke from my prophetic dream, immediately reprimanding myself for having a vision with such an unrealistically intelligent ending.

Traci Vaughan, a sophomore and Communication Arts major tied for first place in the National Cross Ex­ amination Debate Association Tour­ nament held at the Air Force Academy in Colorado. Since no ties are allowed in debate, when the tie was broken, Traci ranked second overall, falling behind the first place overall by only one point. "I was so surprised and very honored. This semester has been very good. I've put as much as humanly possible into it (the debate team)." Traci Vaughan Sophomore and Communication Arts major ASU debate team, Traci Vaughan and Chris Thornhill Appalachian Photo by Allison Loyton Along with V aughan, her freshman debate partner Christopher Thornhill, did extremely well, posting a four win and four loss record with high speaker ratings. They placed 93rd out of 235 teams. This is both Vaughan and Thornhill's first year of competitive debating on the college level. Thornhill was only six speaker points away from being ranked in the top 25 varsity debate speakers. Thornhill is classified varsity since he competed four years in high school while Vaughan did not compete in high school and is considered a novice SDcaker. "I was so surprised and very honored," Vaughan said. "This semester has been very good. I've put as much as humanly possible into it (the debate team)," Vaughan added. This honor has brought both students and ASU national recogni­ tion of ASU's debate program. This year's debate program has had 12 active members who competed in such areas as public speaking, oral in­ terpretation of literature and debate. They went to 11 tournaments this year and hosted a college and high school tournament. "I think the kids are wonderful. They work hard and are easy to coach. All of them brought good positive recognition to ASU," Direc­ tor and coach of Debate and Forensics, Nina-Jo Moore said. Other debate members this year in­ clude Karen Stairs, Jamie Smith, Meg Andrews, Bobby Justice, Rick Mosher, Chris Sexton, Mark Burke, Kelly Adkins, Becky Higbec and Mark Blackmon. Members are finish­ ed competing for this year, but will resume competition next fall. ASU second school in UNC-system to offer By MARGARET MUGNER Appalachian Staff Writer Next fall the department of Political Science and Criminal Justice will begin offering a Master's in Public Administration (MPA). Originally a masters was to be ofleted in criminal justice, however, by mid-1910 the Board of Governors suggested that ASU teak at an MPA degree. During its first year the program is expected to have a capacity of 20 to 25 students. "At least half of the students will come from ASU," Dr. Joel Thomp­ son, chairman of the Department of Political Science and Criminal Justice said. The MPA program will have three different areas for students to focus on, Town, City, and County Manage­ ment; Administration of Justice; and Public Administration. Town, City and County Manage­ ment will be for those students who are looking for a career in smaller towns or areas such as Boone. The Administration of Justice is for individuals who would like to work as a prison warden or chief of police. The MPA program has the poten­ tial to offer strong ties between ASU and the real world," Thompson said. "The student is allowed to develop the program," assistant professor of political science Dr. Arthur Felts said. The 39-hour program will take essentially two years to complete, with three semesters of course work and a six-hour internship in each of the areas of course study, Thompson said. Those students interested in public administration and having analytical ability should consider applying for the MPA. Grades will be a factor in acceptance. Any students from engineering, liberal arts, and business backgrounds should also consider the MPA pro­ gram. The department of political science and criminal justice will be looking for an additional faculty member who has experience in the personnel ad­ ministration area to instruct. The only other school with a MPA degree in the UNC system is the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Other schools in the system who have similar programs are; Eastern Carolina University, University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Univer­ sity of North Carolina at Greensboro, North Carolina State University, and Western Carolina University.

He discussed some of the future expansion plans for the system. Expansion requests have been made for a route to the Broyhill Inn and Conference Center, a route to Univer sity Hall, an exclusive on-campus route, routes to perimeter parking areas especially if the parking pro­ posals are passed. Two new senators were approved by Senate at the meeting. Allison Layton representing Belk Hall and Piatt Loftis representing off-campus. Other requests include an increased frequency of routes especially to oncampus locations, a weekend Green route, Sunday routes, and a route to more out-of-town locations. Turner said that beginnng May 14. a new route will be established to allow access from ASU to shopping centers in town. The new route will include the New Market Center on highway 421. The AppalCART system will also combine the Red and Green routes for a Saturday route and a late evening route since the present Green route does not run late in the evening. The system is planning to obtain a larger bus for an overload capacity. The buses presently in use fill up quickly, especially on days of bill weather. Plans are being made for buses with back doors for the unloading of passengers and decreas ing waiting time. Turner said that from the proposed $20 transportation fee that would be charged to students if the traffic pro­ posals pass, $125,000 will go to the AppalCART system next year. This is about $40,000 more than last year's budget. In other Senate business an item concerning the re-opening of nomina tions for the office of Chief Justice was addressed. Rules Committee member Jeff Crum made the proposal to the senate, with the support, of current Chief Justice Kim Gray. It was felt that not enough time was given for interested students to apply for the position and that the positions were not publicized well enough to off-campus students. It was also felt that a few specific students were coerced not to join, and that this unfair action should be counter-acted by re-opening nominations to interested students. Senate members opposing the pro­ posal said that Senate as a whole had decided to set those dates and that the students interested enough in apply­ ing had taken the effort to do so in the allotted time. To re-open the nomina­ tions would be unfair to the students already appointed, others felt. The proposal to re-open nomina­ tions was not approved. Senator Jeff Crum felt that not approving re-opening nominations was a great injustice to students. "I don't think I've ever been so disappointed in my life," Crum said. Two new senators were approved by Senate at the meeting. Allison Layton representing Belk Hall and Plat Loftis representing off-campus. �THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDA Y, APRIL 14, 1988 Boone makes plans for new park system Expected to open summer 1989 By JON JIMISON Special to the Appalachian The Town of Boone hopes to have a greenway park system open by the summer of 1989. A greenway is a linear park and such parks are usually located along streams and river banks. They are suitable for activities such as walking biking and jogging. Former ASU graduate Intern, Richard B. Boren, has studied the feasibility of implementing a green­ way system in Boone. "He took a good, all-around look at other greenways and applied this to Boone...he walked and kayaked local streams and rivers," Senior Planner Jerry Haire of the Depart­ ment of Planning and Inspection said. The greenway sight will be a twomile stretch along the South Fork New River. It will begin at the County Recreation Complex near State Farm Road. "As they began to develop it (greenway) they saw that they could connect it to historic sites, one being the old source of electricity in town," Mayor Larry Keeter said. This historic sight is the original New River Light and Power Plant and dam built in 1915. Co-founder of Ap­ palachian State Teachers College, B.B. Dougherty first began plans for building the power plant. "So it has at least two dimensions, the idea of preserving a space for ex­ ercise and also kind of a historical preservation dimension," Keeter said. Last September, the Department of Planning and Inspections filed an ap­ plication to the Land and Water Con­ servation Fund (LWCF). This is a federally funded program that allocates money for small town parks. The program will match the amount of money that Boone puts into the project. Previously, the Town of Boone allocated $50,350 to match the possi­ ble federal fund. The town will be notified this summer if they receive the fund. Boone has received support and help from many civic organizations who have offered to help in maintenance and construction. The Watauga County Board of Commis­ sioners also has agreed to let Boone use county parking for the greenway. "I've never seen such a project receive so much support," Haire said. The proposed sight falls on a por­ tion of ASU property and that of a private landowner. "The private owner opted to donate the land to the project if the (LWCF matching) fund is approved," Harris said. ASU is working to grant the Town permanent use (Easement) of the University land that falls on the pro­ ject sight. This entails a 20-foot area stretching one mile. In a letter to Boone's Planning and Inspection Department written in February, Vice Chancellor for Business Affairs Ned Trivette con­ firmed that ASU will contribute $30,000 to the project. This money The proposed sight falls on a portion of ASU property and that of a private landowner. PRE-REGISTRATJO*. the first registration Heidi Van Dine Town Council passes new noise law Special to The Appalachian Editor's Note: Heidi Van Dine is ASU's Student Legal Intern. Watch out! The town of Boone has done it again. They have formally drawn up a brand new ordinance, and then passed it and implemented it in one day. The new ordinance went through relatively unannounced and unpublicized. So sit up and listen! This new "law" takes on the appearance of being aimed predominantly at ASU students. On March 24, 1988, the Boone Town Council created a new NOISE ORDINANCE. What is so special about it? Section 1 reads as following: It shall be unlawful for any person, firm, or corporation to make, con­ tinue, or cause to be made or con­ tinued any excessive, unreasonable or unusually loud noise which annoys, disturbs, frightens, injures or endangers citizens within the cor­ porate limits of the Town. What I have discovered, is that a called-in complaint of a singular per­ son to the Boone Police Department, Most successful year for judiciary: Thanks go to all Editors note: Kim Gray is Chief Justice of the Student Judiciary As the year comes to a close, many "thank-you"s should be expressed to the people here at ASU who have con­ tributed to and who have made Stu­ dent Judiciary the most successful one ASU has ever had. By "successful" I mean successful in many ways. First, we have cleared over 320 cases (double those cleared last year); second, the students, facul­ ty, staff and administration have worked very hard together to insure the integrity of the student disciplinary procedure and thirdly, I believe student awareness about the judiciary process has increased. Administrative officials who have been particularly involved and helpful this year include: Dr. David Mclntire, Barbara Daye, Lee McCaskey, Sam­ my Hartley, Rick Geis and all of the faculty members who sit on the Board of Judicial Review. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us about how to effectively work with people. Next thank you to the Residence Life Staff who have worked so hard to support Judiciary throughout this very hectic year. Also, thank you to SGA Senate, the Appalachian and WASU. Finally a big Thank You! to all the court justices and the officers who have made a huge difference at ASU. Through long court nights, difficult trying cases and lots of conflict you have done the best job ASU had done in its 20 year existence. To the students at ASU, thank you for working with us to process your cases in the most effective way possi­ ble. These words of gratitude are all deserved. However, I feel that 1 must present some court statistics for general information to the students. Last semester the court heard 158 cases, 165 defendants were male, while 55 were female. The court accepted 319 guilty pleas.The court heard 111 freshmen, 69 sophomores, 17 juniors and 2 seniors. From the cases heard 135 dealt with underage possession of alcohol and /or other alcohol related offenses. The remainder of the cases were distributed amongst charges such as Contempt of Court to Assault with a deadly weapon. can bring the police to your door, and you can be issued a citation on the spot with no prior warnings. You might think that is not the best policy of enforcement, but it is legal, and they have done it that way several times already. So what is considered "annoying, frightening, injurious, or endanger­ ing" noise? Section 2 outlines the following: (A) Horns, Signaling Devices, etc. (B) Radios, Phonographs, etc. (C) Yelling, Shouting, etc. (D) Animals, Birds, etc. (E) Defect in Vehicle or Load. (F) Loading, Unloading, Opening Boxes. Now then, something which may get your landlord in on the act. Section 3 states: The owner of every premise shall be responsible and liable for the actions of his/her tenants and their guests when such actions violate this ordinance. This shall in no way relieve such tenants or their gueits from liability for any violations of this ordinance. Even though you are still responsi­ ble for having violated the ordinance, the landlord is also responsible for YOUR actions. Perhaps, then, he will take it upon himself to forewarn you when your noise level becomes excessive. It beats having the police slap you with a $100 fine! The enforcement of this ordinance is listed in Section 4: Court sanctions ranged from Judicial Reprimand to suspension with the average sanction being general probation. Anyone who is in­ terested in reviewing these court statistics should contact me at 262-2102 or in office 101 of Workman Hall. Although our case load has increas­ ed, I believe ASU has proved itself to be an outstanding educational facility because of the concern from the staff, faculty, administration, and students. The ultimate goal of Judicial process has been achieved-increased student awareness. Again, thank-you to all for giving me the opportunity to represent ASU. I feel privileged to have had the chance to work for you. Who Gets Breast Cancer?

Kim Gray faculty members, administrators, and students n£* w W^i By HEIDI VAN DINE will finance the construction of three foot bridges that the sight calls for. Trivette says the bridges would not only serve the greenway system but would also provide needed access to other University property. "ASU has been more than cooper­ ative, they've been totally supportive of this project," Haire said. To date, there has been no con­ struction only studies and surveys have been done. Any money spent on the project before the LWCF applica­ tion is approved will not be matched by the Government. Most of the property is contained in floor plains. Haire says this has little developmental options other than greenways. Future plans include adding extra phases to the original greenway pro­ ject. "The first phase will be expanded as the greenway is developed and as funds are available. These are green spaces and if we don't act to preserve them, in a few years they may not be available," Keeter said. A ,0* was the first d registration f0r J1 Fa The Registrar's (A) Any person, firm or corpora­ tion violating any of the provi­ sions of this ordinance shall upon conviction be guilty of a misdemeanor and shall be punished by a fine not to exceed $50 or imprisoned for not more than 30 days. (B) Violation of this ordinance shall subject the offender to a civil penalty in the amount of $100 to be recovered by the town. Violators shall be issued written notice after receipt of 'he said notice. If the violator does not pay the penalty within 72 hours, the town may recover such penalty, and all subsequently accruing penalties in a civil action. (C) Each day's continuing viola­ tion of any ordinance provi­ sion shall be a separate and distinct offense. (D) Notwithstanding subsection (A) and (B) above, this ordinance may be enforced by appropriate equitable remedies issuing from a court of compe­ tent jurisdiction. What this says is that you have 72 hours from the time you receive the citation to pay the $100 fine. If you do not pay by that time, then the city will take you to civil (not criminal) court to try to collect the money. If the court finds you guilty of violating the noise ordinance, then you will also be considered guilty of a misde­ meanor. This is in addition to having to pay the city penalty of $ lO other penalties resulting froiT, t action. It may not seem fair, but it city "law" right now.Alllcan if you have a beef with it, a poll logically presented call or let complaint to a Boone Town C member is one method of lettin opinion be heard. The other « would be to have your side of tL aired in court. Of course, prevention is st best cure.

Oral proficiency testing was developed by the State Department in the 1950s to guage a speaker's ability to communicate efFictively in a foreign language. Testing for knowledge of gram­ mar, vocabulary and reading com­ prehension are established in the foreign language curriculum, but oral proficiency testing for language students is a recent development, says chairperson of Appalachian's foreign language department Dr. Hector Romero. Professor Reynaldo L. Jimenez, director of elementary and in­ termediate Spanish language pro­ grams at the University of Florida and an authority in proficiency testing, will conduct the fret workshop. The workshop will be held trf Ap­ palachian's Broyhill Inn alid Con­ ference Center from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. For more information contact Dr. Hector Romero at (704) 262-3095.

The 'M' word. A dirty word around my pad. What in the hell makes people want to get married at an early age? Or period, for that matter. Saturday, I watched a really good friend of mine get... well, you know. He seemed real pleased as did his bride. Nothing but teeth showed on his face. I am real happy for Shannon. We've had some great times together. Both of us played soc­ cer in high school and attended concerts like Jimmy Buffett and the Grateful Dead. 1 worked for his Dad and we killed a few brain cells together. Shannon is one of those people who seems a lot older than he really is. And he's got a presence about him I've experienced with very few people. Kind of like the eye of a hurricane. Anyway, the wedding was wonderful. Sandy (the bride) had a long train on her gorgeous white dress. The ushers were decked out in black tuxedos and the bridesmaids wore dresses made of green lace. It was a big affair, to say the least. ? And I must admit, my old bud­ dy Shannon cut a fine figure standing at the front of the church. I've seen people get married before. Usually, I didn't think much about it, I just enjoyed the champagne. Shannon is the first of my cronies to tie the prover­ bial knot. It had a profound effect on me. The biggest thing about mar­ riage that gets me is it's supposed to last for life. Life can be a long time. If I was going to die at the ripe d age of 23, I could imagine spending my life with one person, i'm 21. Otherwise, I don't think anyone could put up with me for any length of time. I haven't met anyone I could put up with for life. More power, though, to Sandy and Shannon. think I should look at their jnarriage like I've gained another "end in Sandy. I feel like I've lost Shannon though. Colorful. Off-beat. Psychedelic. Arlo s on King Street in downtown oone, is all of these things, and quite a bit more. Wander inside, and you'll see the wide array of items not found in most of Boone's stores. Things like "heal­ ing crystals and stones, handmade jewelry, tie-dyes, and an assortment of classical music from a few decades ago on compact discs fill the small space. With the imposing likenesses of Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, and the Beatles staring down from the walls, there is a definite sensation of stepping back in time. Business partner and operator San­ dy McMillan decided to take this retail step out of the ordinary while living in Raleigh. He had a friend who had a shop similar to Arlo's and McMillan was intrigued by the idea. He set up the shop in August of last year. According to McMillan, Arlo's is something that has just kind of hap­ pened. It is really not just a store. "It's an alternative business," McMillan said. "It's more of a cultural place." He hopes that through the tie-dyes and other items, that Arlo's will help to bring a little color and cheer to Boone. You might ask how a simple store can do this. McMillan said that it is hard to have a bad attitude about life By MICK1 SALTZ Appalachian Staff Writer ASU Ambassadors are a special group of people here at Appalachian. Most every student received a guided tour of the campus before coming to ASU. Well, your guide, if you didn't knew it, was probably an ASU Ambassador. They walk many miles before their position as an Ambassador is over and know just about everything con­ cerning the university. Essentially, they are the hosts and hostesses of ASU. Fred Robinette started the ASU Alumni Ambassadors 10 years ago and acts as the director of Support Development. The Ambassadors have had a lot of success with their work and hope to see greater expansion in the future. Correction J e Tuesday, April 12 edition ^ Appalachian the Et Cetera .J116 Wayne tibuter? «vriter q. t0 Appalachian staff •shannon Sparks. Faces should of have been Appalachian Rich Koon Todd Campbell, the SGA president of 1986-87 at ASU, and current Assis­ tant Director of Alumni Affairs acts as faculty advisor. With him in their corner, they should do well in their future endeavors. Every year depending on the amount of Ambassadors that graduate, they pick new represen­ tatives. This membership selection usually takes place at the end of March. Their selections have already been processed for this year but next March openings will be available, for those interested. Their main responsibility is work­ ing with the admissions office and giv­ ing tours to prospective students and parents. Their knowledge of ASU must be accurate and up to date con­ taining policies on housing, meal options, the buildings, textbook information, and more. "Each person adds their own per­ sonality to their tour. We all do it dif­ ferently and hopefully this makes it diverse enough to keep it interesting," Ambassador Ashley Lester said. Come rain, sleet, snow, or shine the Ambassadors are there just like the mailmen. "I gave a tour at Open House and my feet were soaking wet before we got through, you just try to go on and do the best you can," Lester said. "Most people won't show if it's really bad weather, they usually call in and cancel their tour," Campbell said. As an Ambassador you must love to talk to people and get along with them well. "I enjoy it. Just being able to tell prospective students what it's like here at ASU and all that ASU offers is really nice," Ambassador Forrest Small said. It's very competitive to become an Ambassador, more than 1 want it to be, but it's worth it because you really enjoy it," Lester said. Along with giving tours, Ambassadors also act as hosts and hostesses at rallies that Alumni Affairs organize in big cities all over North Carolina. "I have a lot of fun because I get to meet and talk with different kinds of people like the administrators of ASU, officials, parents, and students and also because you feel like you're doing something good," Lester said. Studies aren't hindered by being an Ambassador. They donate one hour a week and sometimes work on Satur­ days. "Open House in the spring, and Family Days in the fall, get more hec­ tic than anything else but it doesn't last long enough to cause any prob­ lems," Lester said. Their numbers are limited to 30, as stated in their charter, but hopes are high for future expansion and possibly a corresponding organization to join with the Ambassadors. "You get excellent experience deal­ ing with groups of people, public speaking, learning how to think on your feet, handling different kinds of people, and gaining responsibility by taking charge and making sure you're there on time," Campbell said. They don't get paid for doing all this but the personal satisfaction is there. Commons is uncommonly good BSA vacations in the Bahamas-style The atmosphere was highly sophisticated, service was first-rate, and the food was outstanding. The Commons is particularly uni­ que in service, and offers the best in town.

McMillan feels that we are at a crucial turning point in history as we go into the next century. He feels that society has come full circle since the "love" and "peace" generation of the 1960's. "The people who have an attitude that it was just a passing flaky idea need to realize that it's not the case," he said. Arlo's is a unique shop to visit. When a person thinks of marage, they also usually think of ]V°rce. A phenomenon that occurs all too often. One that I aI! n° desire to be a part of. That's one of the main reasons arriage scares me so much. One the main reasons I think a lot People should be scared of narriage. At least respectful of 'con when you're wearing a colorful tiedyed T-shirt. The tie-dyes that McMillan sells are professionally made. "They're fun and colorful," he said. Some critics of the recent tie-dye trend have condemned it as simply a resurgence of the 1960's "hippie" and "flower power" movement. "In my opinion, that's not true, " McMillan said. He comented that Tiedye designs are what's happening now. McMillan said tie-dying is an an­ cient Indian art that is part of the Hindu religion. "All different types of people wear the tie-dyes," "It's really a pretty old art," he said. The clientele of Arlo's is indeed varied. McMillan refers to them as "a real mix of people," ranging from college and high school students to local people to customers who come all the way from Elkin, Lenoir and Hickory. By SHELLEY KAEHR The Commons is located at the Continuing Education Center and provides a wide variety of dining op­ tions. A breakfast buffet is served from 7 to 9:30 a.m. for a low $3.95. Sunday brunch is also available for $7.59 and runs from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Lunch prices are also reasonable. The buffet is $4.95, sandwiches are $3.95 and the salad bar is $3.25. Hours are 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Evenings at The Commons are elegant. Diners are offered a choice of three appetizers including shrimp cocktail ($4.25), crabmeat cocktail ($4.25), and garden salad ($1.50). When I entered the restaurant, the first thing I noticed was the outstand­ ing view of the Boone sunrise. The view is ab­ solutely spectacular, but is not quite as noticeable at night. For this review, I decided to try The Commons Breakfast Buffet. When I entered the restaurant, the first thing I noticed was the outstand­ ing view of the Boone sunrise. The view is absolutely spectacular, but is not quite as noticeable at night. After being seated, my friend and I proceeded towards the huge breakfast bar. The food quality and selection of­ fered were very impressive. For light eaters, fresh mixed fruit, yogurt and a wide variety of cold cereals were available. for big breakfast fans, The Com­ mons offers several traditional breakfast foods such as eggs, sausage, bacon, grits, hash browns, corned beef hash, biscuits and muffins. I had eggs, sausage, hash browns, fruit and a biscuit. The food was ex­ cellent except the fruit which was a bit tart. For the price, this breakfast can't be beat! Also served with the buffet was a choice from a variety of fruit juices such as orange, apple and tomato juice. For an additional 50 cents, a large pot of fresh coffee was brought to the table. The coffee was well worth the small price. That was the best cup of coffee I've had in a long time. For the price, this breakfast can't be beat! By DIANNE WALLY Appalachian Staff Writer The Black Student Association Gospel Choir was organized by Mr. Willie Fleming in 1975. The choir averages 12 to 15 concerts per year at places like high schools, churches, and rest homes. The Gospel Choir also goes on an annual tour. Usually, these tours take place in communities that are signifi­ cant in black history, such as Atlanta or Washington, D.C. But, this year the BSA Choir did something a little out of the ordinary. Over spring break, they went to the Bahamas. The planning for this trip took about two years. The students participated in many fund raisers, from credit card programs to candy sales. They raised $10,000 and paid for the entire trip. Proceeds from these fund raisers will also go towards the building of a preschool. The choir was gone for one week and spent four days in Nassau. They performed at schools and churches and their main performance took place in the Pocenia Arena in Nassau. Coordinator, Willie Fleming thinks it When students were asked what the most fun thing they did on the trip was, they gave a variety of answers. Sean Coleman said,"I liked riding in the vans. Everyone really got to know each other and the communica­ tion was great." "I loved when we did a concert for an elementary school. It was something the children had never ex­ perienced before. The happy expres­ sions on their faces made me feel real­ ly good," Jody Fields said. Overall, the trip seemed to be a big success for everyone involved.

This trip was not only beneficial in earning money to help build a preschool, but it was also a good ex­ perience for the students and the ad­ visor.

Coronation Pall �THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDAY, APRIL 14, 1988 _ Artists show their true colors in Art Expo 88 Graduating seniors compete for $250 and invitational bid By MONIQUE BROWN Appalachian Staff Writer Maybe it's the sunny spring weather or maybe just the fact that I've never seen so many pieces in the gallery at one time, but I got a really positive feeling as I walked into the Spring Expo 88. Many graduating seniors entered several of their art pieces in the com­ petition. When looking at the variety, one wonders why did they enter these particular pieces? "The pieces 1 entered in the exhibit not only demonstrated the mediums in which I enjoy working, but also some of what I consider my more suc­ cessful pieces," Tammy Trivett, a senior Art Education major, said. Senior Art Expo will be displayed until Thursday, May 5 in the Catherine Smith Gallery. Succes far as art cess is Suzanne feels art is the name of the game as goes. The definition of suc­ different for everyone. Kidd, an exhibiting artist, is successful when the in­ dividual is happy with the product and others like it too. Her goal, along with a success, is to be an art teacher. Suzanne got interested in art as a young child. She had talent and much encouragement. Art, for Suzanne, is something you "can't get away from." While looking at Art Expo 88, one realizes that this is the final exhibit for many senior art students. The exhibit has a wide variety of styles and mediums. When looking at the art work one encounters everything from Pamela Bundy's fiber pieces to jewelry by Chris Reynolds and Lynne Smith, and Richard Smith had wonderful photography pieces. Charles Wolfe's mixed media was really impressive. The composition and earth tone colors in his Anathema's series was superb. I was most impressed by two pieces by Smith and by Clark Wittington's "Dawn Pink" a modern abstract, ex­ pressionist oil painting. This year's Expo shows some of the best local talent I've seen in quite a while. Go take a look, and show your support for the ASU senior class. Senior Art Expo will be displayed until Thursday, May 5 in the Catherine Smith Gallery. Art Faculty will be judging the exhibit on Friday, April 15. Faculty members will score each piece on a scale of one to four. The points will be totaled for a win­ ner. The four highest scorers will receive an award of $250 and go to the invitational held for the winners of each grage of competition. Fear and loathing rock alternate see] By SUSAN SHOEMAKER AMtoual Cow MHor Eccentric. Electric. Eclectic... I've heard them practice many times (being a friend of theirs) and I still can't confine Fear and Loathing's style to a group of words on paper. Fear and Loathing is a new alternative band on the "Boone music scene" who will be performing for the first time as a group Friday night at 9 p.m. as the opening band for The Outer Limits. Appalachian Photo by Tameula Trivett Artist Stacey Chiott checks out the competition Newcomers brighten A.P.P.S. future By SHANNON SPARKS Appalachian Staff Writer All around campus places are changing their faces in preparation for the new fall semester. One of those places is A.P.P.S. where the ex­ ecutive personnel for the fall semester have been selected. The Concert Council Chairperson next year will be sophomore Brian Armstrong. Brian plans to major in business, which is part of his motiva­ tion for joining A.P.P.S. It was in­ itially Brian's friends who were on the Concert Council who expressed their enthusiasm toward their activities and prompted Brian to choose working with A.P.P.S. as a valuable extracur­ ricular activity. After having not been very involved with activities other than those of an academic nature during his first year at ASU, Brian wanted to choose an extra activity that would allow him to spend his extra time usefully. When he applied for an executive position on the council, his interviewing ad­ visor and application reviews recognized his work throughout the year and his care for the organization. Brian has enjoyed working with his peers and plans to become more deep­ ly involved in aspects of student pro­ grams beyond the concert council. "I think that working with A.P.P.S. is good experience for my major," Brian said. "It's a student organization where students are who have a major say in what's going on." The Treasurer position will be filled by Wendy Ravert. Wendy joined A.P.P.S. in the fall as a result of a pamphlet she picked up at the organizational fair. Because Wendy loves music and live bands, she decid­ ed that Stage Shows was the A.P.P.S. council for her. Wendy has enjoyed meeting people while working with A.P.P.S. and will continue to work with stage shows along with her treasurer duties. WASU Programming Director Jamie Smith is the new A.P.P.S. Publicity Chairperson. The junior public relations major joined with the film council with the hope of improv­ ing relations and opening com­ munications between WASU and A.P.P.S. Jamie applied for the posi: tion of pulicity chairperson out of a pronounced interest in publicity and because it tied in well with her major. "A.P.P.S. is an excellent opportunity for PR and media advertising majors because they plan events and have the chance to see first hand what works and what doesn't work," Jamie said. Before joining the film "council Jamie was active at Executive Council meetings as the WASU ex-officio (member with no voting rights) Jamie enjoys the amount of influence students have in decision-making in the organization. "It's a school organization so there's lots of freedom as planning is concerned," Jamie said. As publicity chair, Jamie and her council will be involved in the publicity planning of all councils. After seeing a sign that said "Come and join A.P.P.S. Film Council", sophomore Shannon Kuehne, a film buff, decided to do exactly that. Shannon enjoys the meetings and be­ ing involved in the process of review­ ing movie catalogues and chosing the ones she felt were good and students would attend. Shannon's enthusiasm in A.P.P.S. acitivities prompted her Secretary position this fall. The posi­ tion will help with her communica­ tions and media advertising major. Shannon wants to continue working with the film council and hopes to see a membership increase. "I urge anyone having an interest in programming events at ASU to become involved in A.P.P.S. It's a great way to meet people while having a voice in up-coming entertainment," Shannon said. Looking forward to his work as Vice President of A.P.P.S. in the fall is Public Relations and Political Science major, John McPherson. John, a sophomore, is the Ways and Means Chairman of the Delta Chi fraternity, and it was through his fraternity's work with A.P.P.S. in the Jimmy Buffet concert that he first got involved with A.P.P.S. Having en­ joyed the experience and the people that he met in the event, John decided to work with A.P.P.S. on Special Events. John has specific priorities concerning his position next year, in­ cluding increasing the recruitment and participation of members, and developing and sustaining the quality of entertainment that students at ASU have enjoyed this year. "I want to make a name for ASU. We deserve to be on the map and through events like YOFEST and the Jimmy Buffet concert, through things like H'Appy's, and our films, we're See A.P.P.S. Page 7 Take guitarist Lawrence Winn, bassist Jeff Umbarger, and singer Karsten Schroeer, put them all together in one band and what you have is an incredibly explosive com­ bination that Schroeer dubs as being "good dance music.. .we're psychedelic disco/deathmetal from hell and that doesn't even cover it." Psychedelic is right—and the band is happy to be the self-proclaimed "weirdest band in Boone." "It always amazes me how compla­ cent some people are. So many bands don't even try to sound different, they just want to sound like someone else. I could never do that. There's already one R.E.M.—how many do you leed?" said Schroeer. Collectively, .he band lists their influences as Black Sabbath, Shreikback, Rick James, Prince, Adrien Belew, and Rush, to name a few of an extremely diverse and bizarre range of influences. Winn sums it up by saying "basically.. .we're going for that mind-blowing complete abandon." Winn's guitar utilizes a lot of distortion while managing not to sound like jangly, amateurish garage punk. He and Umbarger on bass prove to be a fairly deadly combina­ tion, having played together in and out of bands for the past two years. Schroeer has been playing guitar and singing since the tender age of 14, when he played in a band that opened for such bands as Ugly Americans and Corrosion of Conformity in the growing Durham hardcore scene. Schroeer is an enigmatic sinoer who frequently prowls around stage swing­ ing the microphone stand while sing­ ing with a restless type of passion that causes the group to be incredibly elec­ tric on stage. The fourth member of Fear and Loathing is their drummer in a box. Umbarger explains the use of a drum machine by saying that it doesn't skip practice, complain, or „l ffl the money, and it keen than most drummers" if » there were a drummer h *\ hang with us worth a .v® L one." Schroeer smilef' 1 "We're looking % drummer." Meanwhile, Fear hopes to be able to sth!, « consider scene in Boone All.!8 which has Permeated "oic puses nationally, has yet to caught on m Boone and ol a few hours a week onttrX rest, they explain, is prim«^ oriented rock, which meets no one's need, ? nobody who listens to aor. to want to turn on the radio i alternative-nobody whJ U AOR LIKES alternative £ versa."

Not that the actual classes are more difficult, it seems more difficult to make it to class on time. Or at » In the fall, the leaves are fall­ ing and the weather is cool and crisp and it's nice outside without being so nice that you can't stand being indoors. When it gets colder, you can tell it's colder, but it's not so cold (usually) that /ou can't face the thought of go­ ing outside. There doesn't really seem to be that much going on to distract you from the pursuit of scholastic excellence except for football, and that's on Saturdays, when you wouldn't be doing anything much anyway. But the spring semester. It's kind of funny to call the semester after Christmas vacation "Spring" when we first return. January in Boone is anything but springish. It's hard to get motivated for that 8:00 business class over in Walker with three inches of snow and 20 mph winds. It's much easier to rationalize that nobody's going to be there anyway, and your pro­ fessor coiilda't pcgsibly expect you to be in class,' and well, you've had the sniffles, and if you get sick you'll miss even more class...

Not only is Wendy the lead singer, but she is also the notorious Milk Priestess of 1987. However, she'd rather have the spotlight shine on the band and not on her royal title. Since she said "Please," I didn't ask any dairy questions. Instead I asked the following 18. Hoodoo See SONGS Page 11 Who is in the band? Wendy: No, because the other members will not do Elvis or Kiss songs. 1 really wanted to do "Parasite Lady," but they won't let me. (2) (7) How long have you all been together? Wendy: About two months. (3) Is there any reason behind your name? What did it feel like to play at the Animal Aid concert? Wendy: There was a magical tension in the air when all of the local bands gave their time and effort for the animals of Watauga County. It was tru­ ly a touching and moving experience. (5) Do you do many covers? Wendy: We mostly do originals, but we do have a few covers we interchange. (6) Would you ever consider Are there any plans for a demo tape in the future? Wendy: Hopefully this summer; if we get some money. (8) Wendy: No. (4) also got to meet Dee Dee Ramone, the scariest man on earth. doing "Burning Love"?

What are some of your influences, aside from music? (11) What is your opinion of the Boone Music scene? (14) What is different about No Reason Why? Chris: That's really hard to answer without getting myself into trouble. Everything is so political up here... I wish there was more of a variety.. .there seems to be too many blues and reggae groups. There isn't that much of a variety. Chris: I think what is unique about us is that we try to mix things up during our sets. We try to play a variety; everything from hardcore to psychedelic. We don't do it to get a larger audience, but rather because we want to. (15) (12) Would you like to see more "rock" bands? Any chance of you all stay­ ing together as a band after you leave ASU? Chris: Well, not just "rock," but I would also like to see some, maybe, jazz groups or even a hardcore band. Just some diversity. Chris: There is no way of telling right now. The band is still too young. (13) Do you think Boone or ASU Wendy: I like to eat and watch T.V. (10) Have you ever met any of your idols that have influenced you? Wendy: Oh yeah! 1 got to meet The Descendents. When I was young 1 met Tony Orlando. I That's the point. The students seem to really sup­ port the blues and reggae bands the heaviest and it kind of leaves the other bands out of luck. They sup­ port what they want to hear. Then 1 asked Wendy a question she really didn't want to answer. She kept saying, "Um, um, um," until fellow band member, Chris, stopped by. He gladly answered the Final questions.

The band features singer-guitaristsongwriter Will Marley along with Greg Pope and Rob Schladensky, who share bass and drum duties. After a year of working together, the trio has met with some success down the mountain, as well as developing a rather large following among ASU students. The Limits' reportoire consists of all orginals, which is both an asset and a liability. When playing for a crowd that bases its musical tastes on familiarity instead of quality, the band encounters a great deal of indif­ ference. In a Roanoke gig, for in­ stance, the band was threatened with violence from a couple of disap­ pointed rednecks. However, the guys take this type of experience in stride. Will says smilingly of the incident, "Their girlfriends were there and they like us. They were making them (the violent rednecks) get up and dance." Most audiences, however, are very receptive to the band's collection of Marley's compositions. Marley sites The Replacements, Wire Train, and The Church as his major influences, and describes the bands' sound as "contemporary progressive rock," His twanging guitar and laid-back lyrical style are backed by Rob's swift, dependable drumming, and Greg's melodic bass lines, inspired by Rush, Billy Cobham, and "especially the Police." It is a raw, pure sound that is lost in much of contemporary music. The Outer Limits display a brand of muscial integrity that is hard to come by in the era of the drum machine. Having been virtually banned from playing Boone's tiny night spots due to the band's high decibel level, the Outer Limits have taken their show on the road. The Milestone in Charlotte is one of their favorite gigs, and they just finished a show in Raleigh last weekend. They also have managed to a booking as far off as Wilmington, N.C., where they are scheduled to debut on April 29. The Outer Limits can also frequently be seen at the Student Union Pub, where they gave one of their more See OUTER LIMITS Page 11 " Local band The Outer Limits 1MI V/Utal UIIIIIS l.WVMI Appalachian Photo by Laura Wi»o Acting again: One-Acts start in IGG tonight The Appalachian State University Theatre offers an evening of uniquely diversified enter­ tainment this week as it presents A Night of One-Acts.

Lost That Lovin' Feelin'—The Righteous Brothers 4) This past Saturday a new ASU group, called No Reason Why, achieved the coup of the century by becoming the headline band for The Animal Aid Benefit. Coming on stage around midnight they played faster, louder, tighter and better than bands that have been together longer. The crowd went wild as the four-person group jammed into the early morning hours. (1) The first of the three one-act plays to be presented, Echo, is directed by Pam Walker, an ASU senior majoring in theatre arts. Writ­ ten by Robert Kasper, the play deals with one of today's most serious issues, teen-age suicide. The play is the story of a family who is trying to deal with their son's recent suicide. The role of the ill-fated son is played by Brian Harvell, an ASU sophomore. The selfcentered father is portrayed by Cliff Retallick, a senior majoring in Political Science. Michelle Poole, an ASU theatre major, appears as the confused younger sister. The Future is in Eggs is directed by Mark T. Brown, an ASU senior majoring in broad­ casting'. Brown also directed Stopwatch last fall for Renaissance Matinee. The Future is in Eggs is an absurdist play which deals with the formalities and absurdities of family relation­ ships. A young couple, Jacques and Roberta, are pressured by their parents to have eggs (children). Prominent figures in the play are Grandmother Jacques, a compulsive old bat, and Grandfather Jacques, who is deceased and spends most of the play in his picture frame at the back of the stage. The play a farce that touches briefly on the absurdities of death, racial continuity, and other equally confusing issues. Jacques is played by Randall Whitfield, a senior Psychology major; and Roberta is played by Karen Duckett, a senior theatre ma­ jor. Jonathan D. Williams, a sophmore Com­ munication Arts major portrays Grandmother Jacques, and Doug Beckham plays Grand­ father Jacques. Brett Pryor and Roberta Ferguson are Mother and Father Robert, and Cliff Poole and Beth Folic play Mother and Father Jacques. The final show of the evening is Calm Down Mother, by Megan Terry. The play explores the limitations in women's lives when they are seen primarily as mothers. Through a series of short vignettes the play explores women's ex­ perience and development scarred by social limitations evolving from the definition of woman as "mother." The vignettes encompass a myriad of images which portray both stereotypical and innovative ideals of womanhood. The play is directed by Belinda Locke who has returned to ASU to seek teacher certification in social studies and theatre. The play involves three characters who assume different roles throughout the story. AnneMarie Williams will play Sophie, an old woman whose identity is hopelessly entangled with the memory of her mother. Julie Marie Myatt will play Sue, a young woman who rebels against motherhood. Mary Ursula Shaughnessy will play Mrs. Watermelon, an abstract character whose confidence lies in understanding that power can exist within limitations. Each actress will also portray several other different roles. Mary Ursula Shaughnessy, i* a transfer student from the North Carolina School of the Arts.

WILLIAMS Appalachian Columnist In The Seventh sign, Demi Moore plays Abby Quinn, soon-to-be mother of the final sign of the end of the world. The movie concentrates on the Judeo-Christian Biblical signs of the second coming of Christ, who is to deliver the wrath of God. The Seventh Sign is based largely on the books of Joel and of the Revelation to John. However, there is evidence that parts of the movie were taken from ancient Hebrew Mythology. The interpreta­ tion of th sources is, perhaps, questionable. * Each scene and element of the film work together to create a synthesis of understanding. Therefore, one must remain attentive to every detail to catch the foreshadowing of the events to come. While no knowledge of the Bible is necessary to understand or en­ joy this film, it does seem more in­ tense if you do have knowledge of the Bible. Moore does an excellent job of por­ traying Abby's emotional struggle with life and death, which is symbolic of the world's struggle with life and death. After the miscarriage of her Revelation chapter five. He brings God's wrath to the earth because, as he says, "God's grace is Empty." Curiously, David is aided by a short wave raio and uses mass media to keep up to date with the events of the world. It is ironic that the son of God must be aided by the men he is here to destroy. first child she attempted suicide and lost faith in religion and in God. We find her seven months pregnant at the start of the movie with a second try at motherhood. Through dreams and a messenger of God she learns that this baby is destined to die like the first! Struggling with a life and death deci­ sion for her, her child and the world, she attempts to cleanse herself of the past and offer the world hope. The movie raises many questions about religion and God. Abby at­ tempts to find an answer to 'what kind of God is he' that would kill her child and the world. In her childhood she had learned that God was one of David, the second coming of Christ, is played by Peter Friedman. David represents the only person wor­ thy to break the seals as protrayed in love and now she is faced with a Ood of wrath.

One film went nine for nine, including Best Picture. Sean Connery won an Oscar. A Presidential candidate's cousin won for Best Supporting Actress. And Cher wore scraps of sequins yet again. The real and obvious story was The Last Emperor. The film won everything it was nominated for. Directed by Bernardo Bertolucci (who won Director honors), Emperor was a huge, opulent film that became one of the year's most critically-acclaimed. The film was not mentioned for any performance awards, which should give you a good idea of where its strengths lie—in the conception and production more than anywhere else. The film's China location was spec­ tacular. David Byrne, interestingly enough, was among the three winners for the film's original soundtrack. The performance awards that The Last Emperor left up for grabs were not exactly full of surprises—almost everyone who guessed, guessed right. Michael Douglas won for Best Actor. He was nominated for Wall Street but he really won for Fatal Attraction—a good thing for that movie, since none of its other nominations panned out for it. Attraction was leading the popular polls in most places, but, what with its plot flaws and not-quiteseamless production, few insiders gave it a chance. Michael Douglas himself did well to beat out competi­ tion from Jack Nicholson (Ironweed) and Robin Williams (Good Morning, Vietnam)—and where was Steve Martin for Roxanne? Cher was chosen Best Actress for her performance in Moonstruck (which also won Best Original Screenplay honors), although there was no comparison and never will be between her abilities and those of Meryl Streep, who was nominated for Ironweed. CI did thank Streep in her acceptance speech, however, and this was really good to see. The Best Supporting Actress/Actor awards were both interesting, for dif­ ferent reasons. Michael Dukakis' cousin, Olympia Dukakis, won for her role as Cher's mother in Moonstruck. She rather predictably got in a plug for her cousin's Presidential campaign while on the podium, but I like both Dukakises at any rate, and so didn't mind too much. The Supporting Actor award was piven to Sean Connery (The roll-ish material that was good for a bit of noggin noddin' along with upbeat country tunes, the band was received well by the crowd of about two-hundred in Chapel Hill.

One surprising, but enjoyable aspect of the show came in the encore. Kinney emerged back onto the stage with an acoustic guitar, and bassist Nielsen, entered with a mandolin. These guys are truly unashamed of their origins in the South, and the two of them soothed the crowd with a song called "On A Clear Daze" that had all the feeling of a relaxing sum­ mer sunset on the lakefront; it was beautiful, to say the least. The unnamed rhythm guitarist that occupied the stage right position was somewhat of an eyesore compared to the rest of the musicians. He sported girlishly-styled, blonde, long hair, and a Les Paul Gibson guitar that he handled in the stereotypical, out-ofcontext fashion of a rock star. All things considered, he did not seem to fit the band's Alternative-type image. Drummer Jeff Sullivan, was by no means an eyesore, though. His style was neither flashy nor overly em­ phasized, but he played his part profi­ ciently, and seemed to have fun with the music. For a person who does not care for country music or any style of that genre of music, justifying this music as Alternative is somewhat difficult. However, I would say that Island Records would agree to the judge­ ment that the band's attitude is what gives them a uniqueness. They do have a country foundation, but from there they do not write about Red Man, fishin', drinkin', Yanks, or other such Hank Williams-ish institu­ tions. Instead, from that foundation they build with lyrics of natural beau­ ty, love, and even Revolution, and they present themselves in an energetic but professional light. Guitarist/vocalist Kinney, unknow­ ingly summed up the band's attitude in the dedication for the night's final song. He mumbled, "This one's for Southern culture and all that other stuff."

I got out of bed and saw Sid, my lit­ tle black Puma-cat, gazing out the window. I wondered why he couldn't sleep, but didn't bother asking because, well, while talking to one's pets isn't that unusual, expecting an answer to a lame question from an animal is very silly. So 1 poured myself a Coke and decided to flip through a nearby volume of my scrapbook collection (1987). Within the bindings were some happy memories. They were memories of a better place. Memories of a better time. Memories of a better person. A story came to mind while looking through them. Since Sid didn't really want to hear the story, I've decided that you lucky folks should hear all about it. Don't worry. None of it takes place anywhere near Raleigh. Imagine, if you will, a Top 40 col­ lege radio station. A realm where Wham! and Samantha Fox rule supreme. A station where the format caters to those people who actually like St. Elmo's Fire. Imagine an unhappy faculty. A faculty cranky because the student-run station (which we'll call WHLL-FM "Your Universal Station!") overshadows one of their three NPR affiliates. Imagine also a student body hungry for something different only to be let down by their college station. "Wasn't college the place one went to get exposed to new and different ideas?" the masses cried. No one at the station seemed to care. ii; DEMI MOORE MICHAEL BIEHN andJURGEN PROCHNOW Daily 7-9 A & Friday Night, April 15 Tickets: Advance $4.00/At Door $5.00 262-2766 Thursday, April 14 Terms of Endearment 8:00 p.m.$1 .00 COME TO LAUGH, COMETO CRY COME TO CARE.

It was far too easy to sit back and constantly bitch about changing the way things were. "Sure, something needs to be done, but you won't catch me working up there!" was often said. So no one really wanted to attempt to make a dif­ ference at WHLL. No one except for one person. We'll call him Andrew. Andy's taste in music was the very political hardcore punk that many found to be just plain annoying. Still, From the nominations it looked, at least, like it might be an interesting year. A far larger number of comedies than usual were nominated; in fact, if you include Hope and Glory and Broadcast News, both essentially comedies, three of the five Best Pic­ ture nominees were comedies, and nine of the 20 acting nominations were for comedic roles.

Scheduling out-of-town gigs is a problem every young band has to deal with, and the Outer Limits have received predominantly warm responses down the mountain. The guys have an advantage, though. Each band member lives in a different city, and each can hunt gigs in his hometown: Will in Charlotte, Rob in Winston, and Greg in Raleigh. This way, they cover the state's major cities. However, getting gigs is the greatest obstacle for a new band to overcome, and success or failure in this area determines the life or death of the group. "It's not unusual," Will said, "to call 10 times or more for one show." You can't leave a message. They are not going to call you." "You've got to keep on," Greg ad­ ded. The Outer Limits still have some dues to pay, but Greg believes in the positive notion of "the magic tune" that will propel the band into star­ dom.

Assistant Sports Editor Race to the Series is on again One thing is certain when it comes to the 1988 baseball season, nothing is certain. Talk to a baseball fan in the East, and they'll tell you to stock up on New York City subway tokens because the Yankees and the Mets are a shoe-in for the World Series. However, the Western fans will tell you the only subway series this year will be bet­ ween cross-bay rivals San Fran­ cisco and Oakland. A good bet this year could be that these teams will be among baseball's "final four" when the season winds down this fall. In the American League West, the Oakland A's off-season ac­ quisition of Don Baylor, Dave Parker and pitchers Matt Young and Bob Welch have put them in the driver's seat in the division. The road, however, will not be an easy one. Kansas City and defen­ ding World Champ Minnesota Twins will take the race down to the wire. The Royals' bats and the Twins' gloves will make the AL West a tough division to win. '88's strongest division has to be the AL East. Boston, New York, Toronto, and Detroit all have a i shot at the crown. Boston's lack' luster '87 season gave playing time to their younger players Ellis Burks, Mike Greenwell, Todd Benzinger, and Sam Horn who, along with veterans Wade Boggs (.363 in '87), and Dwight Evans (.305 in '87) will put the Red Sox in contention for another trip to the fall classic. The New York Yankees prior to the start of the season seemed to have what it takes to win the AL East. Dave Winfield's off-season literary bombshell, however, has served to, not only sell books, but could also shake the Yankee organization into trading the million-dollar veteran. This year though, the Bronx Bombers are just too tough. Five-time manager Billy Martin could take the Yanks all the way behind superb pitching and the bat of Don Mattingly. The National League West has ihree teams with a legitimate shot at the crown. The San Francisco Giants who, last year finished six games ahead of Cincinnati and 14 ahead of Houston, could walk away with the division championship again. The going will not be fasy, though. What Houston lacks in 'umber, they more than make UP for in pitching. Mike Scott, Bob Knepper, Joaquin Andujar, aud 41-year-old veteran Nolan Ryan are arguably the best pit­ ting staff in major league baseball. In Cincinnati, the Reds *ul miss Dave Parker's power, but mck Esasky could fit into Parker's shoes nicely.

Jane Dalton, ASU's Women's Basketball team's point guard, has been named a 1988 NCAA postgraduate scholarship winner. The award is in the amount of $4,000 and may be used at the university or pro­ fessional school of her choice. Miss Fannie Vaughan stated for the Postgraduate Scholarship Committee that, "Considering the number of potential candidates across the coun­ try, this award stands as a significant "This is one of the highest awards any young lady ever had bestowed on her.

Kim and Watts took control inside, while Johnson, who overcame four per sonal fouls in the first half, finishec with 18 points. Ben Sherill, who con trolled the point for Gok, collectec nine points on three field goals anc three foul shots. The leading scorer; for Unconscious were Pete Rouchel and Blair Jones with 10 points each Billy Mauldln and Donnle Harris chipped in four points each, while Brian Tiddy pumped in eight. Gok'; offense and defense proved to be tot much as they overwhelmed Un conscious by a score of 55 to 42. The second half had only one goal, scored by Teddy Perri, who was assisted by Chip Wardell. This goal by Nunya F.B. tied the game at two goals each, and caused the game to go into overtime. The first period of the two-period overtime saw Nunya F.B. score the only goal, scored by Chip Wardell and assisted by Teddy Perri. In the second overtime period, Generic Brand had the only goal, scored by Chris Vaudijuli, unassisted. With the score tied at 3 after the end of the two-overtime periods, the game went into sudden death. The first team to score, would win. In the second period of sudden death, Teddy Perri scored the winning goal for Nunya F.B. who became the 1988 Intramural indoor soccer champions. Shepherd is Employee of the Month By JAMIE MOSER Special lo (he Appalachian The Department of Recreation, In­ tramurals, and Club Sports has chosen its March Employee of the Month. Beth Shepherd, a senior at ASU has worked for the department for four years. Shepherd is the Director of Graphics and Visuals for the In­ tramural Department and is a strong advocate of intramurals. She has played volleyball, softball, and co-rec volleyball, and has been a console worker in Quinn Recreation Center, a field court supervisor, an office assis­ tant and has pulled her share of night duty as a Graduate Assistant. Shepherd also serves as the President of the Intramural Council. One of Shepherd's duties is to run the meetings of the Intramural Coun- Beth Shepherd cil if any protest were to be filed con­ cerning any matter dealing with In­ tramurals. Shepherd is a middle school educa­ tion major with a concentration in math and science and a minor in health education. Currently, she is doing a student internship at Hardin Park Junior High teaching prealgebra to Eighth Graders. Her future goals are to teach in the math and science area, and eventually coach softball. When asked how her experiences with Intramurals would affect her in attaining her future goals, Shepherd seemed to respond with a sense of pride, "I've really learned to com­ municate with almost every type of person; for me that was a great feat because I came to Intramurals unbearably shy! It has given me a sense of responsibility, and helped me to set my priorities in order." From her bubbly and bright per­ sonality it is quite easy to see why Beth Shepherd is the Department of Intramurals Employee of the Month! CONGRATULATIONS BETH!!!! The New York Gok exchange keeps the men's title Following in the footsteps of the New York Gok Exchange, a women's team named Fast Break was looking to repeat for a second year as in­ tramural champions. The only dif­ ference is that unlike Gok, Fast Break traveled the road to the championship via the loser's bracket. This meant that they had to win two games to eliminate the winner of the winners bracket. Ironically, Pros and Cons, the team which they faced in the championship, was the same team which knocked them into the loser's bracket. With revenge in mind, Fast Break set out on Tuesday, March 29, to de­ fend and keep their title. In game one, the first half was close with a score of Pros and Cons 20, Fast Break 18. The second half of the contest was a whole new ballgame. Pros and Cons scored only five points in the half as Fast Break erupted for 23 points. Mitzi Mclntire, of Pros and Cons, and Carol Almond, Jennifer Harris, and Carmen Nelon, of Fast Break, all scored eight points, and were the game's leading scorers. The final score was Pros and Cons 25, Fast Break 41. The win by Fast Break ensured that a second game would be needed to decide the championship. Game two of the women's championship was almost as close as the first. Fast Break doubled Pros and Cons' scoring out­ put for the first stanza and the half ended Pros and Cons eight, Fast Break 16. The second half was a little closer, as Pros and Cons scored 16, and finished with 24 points. The bad news to them was that Fast Break in­ creased their point total by 22. The high scorers for the second game were Sherri Sain, with seven points for Pros and Cons, and with 10 points, Carmen Nelon for Fast Break. With the game and championship decided, Fast Break won again. The final score was Pros and Cons 24, Fast Break 38. th^e ^at'0na' League East has fee teams that will fight it out for second place.

Rv J SHAVFR By .1 SHAVER ...- Appalachian Staff Writer I've been wanting to do a piece on pro wrestling for a long time, but we can't decide what section to run it in. Sports, you might say. But who really believes that it's a sport? Features is where we ran coverage of the big match last semester. The sports editor at the time rumbled "Run it on the features page; it ain't going on my page 'cause it ain't a sport." How true. Given the nature of the profession, I think it should go on the entertainment page. But that's not too satisfactory, either. People turn to Diversions for rock reviews, not the One-Man-Gang. So let's talk about good old low­ brow wrestling, keeping in mind that it only pretends to be a sport and that the present sports editor is much pret­ tier. I love wrestling. I remember watch­ ing it as a kid, when Gene and Ole Anderson dominated the MidAtlantic area. They had this evil manager who walked with a cane, which he also us­ ed to beat people. I quit watching X. ... wrestling when I was about eight years old, because I started getting suspicious. I started watching again in high school. I remember seeing Jimmy Valiant on the screen wrestling in a mask. I asked my brother why Valiant was wearing a mask. He said, "Jimmy was run out of the Mid-Atlantic area. That's supposed to be Charlie Brown From Out of Town." I sat down to see more. It was so stupid it was funny, so of course I was hooked. That, you see, is why I watch wrestling. Comedy. Take Jim Cornette, for example. If they give him a mike, he'll do a five minute stand-up comedy routine. And then there's Rick Flair-the Nature Boy. The guy has the best Gorgeous George act in the business. I love it when he backs his op­ ponents into the corner and starts backhanding them across the chest. I call it the "titty slap" and it's got to be the most devastating blow in wrestling. One thing I find gratifying is that the Rock and Roll Express are wres­ tling in the AWA now. I could never stand them because I don't get into that "Tiger Beat"crap. Besides which, I knew a couple of guys who looked and acted like Ricky Morton in school, and they always brought two words to mind: bantam rooster. Wrestling has two big leagues: the NWA (formerly Mid-Atlantic Wrestl­ ing) and the WWF. They are really quite different. The WWF's television work is ob­ viously done by professionals. The production staff for the NWA is about half made up of ex-wrestlers and members of the Crockett family. The WWF's show runs more smoothly and looks like it may even be written and rehearsed. The NWA's show is iust Dlain awkward. ?

M1CHELE HOLLO WELL, Copy Editor MATTHEW WEATHERMAN, Circulation Manager Guards, leave Honduras now By GREGORY GREIFF Reprinted from the New Patriot JODY R. BROW N, Editorial Production Manager TERESA CHALK, Advertising Production Manager Students need responsibility Towards the end of each semester, students are preoccupied with tests, sunbathing and other extracurricular activities. Oftentimes people forget responsibilities to organizations. By not completing a job or fulfilling a time commitment, an entire group can suffer. Dedicated individuals who already have a large workload, are forced l0 take on added responsibility to complete assignments. All students have exams. It isn't fair to hard workers to have this added strain. If everyone would put forth a small effort, time commitments would not be as great, and work could be completed faster and more efficiently. What will these slack individuals do when they reach "the real world?" College provides a security for many people. Many students don't have to work and can come and go as they please without parental nag­ ging. As long as grades are reasonable, parents are usually satisfied. It is often a rude awakening for many after college graduation. There are no summer, Christmas, spring and Easter vacations. Jobs are often hard to find and students cannot depend on mom and dad anymore. When permanent employment is located, jobs are delegated and must be completed. Irresponsibility is not tolerated. College was created to prepare students for future careers. If students cannot accept responsibility now, how will they be able to face graduation? There are certain instances; however, when an assignment absolutely cannot be completed. In this situation, people should at least exercise the common courtesy of informing someone of the problem as far in advance as possible. This shows concern for others and responsibility. School is almost over. Everyone should try to get work done now and be RESPONSIBLE! Skateboarding banned? j ffj tsji A AJf • • - - Recently, The Appalachian has received several letters concerning skateboarding on campus. Apparently, skateboarders have been asked to leave campus by ASU Security. According to Captain Isaacs of ASU Security, skateboarders lave been discouraged for safety reasons. Officers feel that students nay be injured from jumping off high walls. Isaacs also said although skateboarding has not been banned from ampus, administrators are trying to develop a policy to do so. If security succeeds in taking away this right, won't they attempt to ake away other rights? If skateboarding is banned, should bicycling so be banned? What about running? Walking? If restrictions coninue, students won't have any rights at all. Furthermore, there seems to be several other issues on campus which ecurity should be looking into such as insuring students' safety specially after dark), and dealing with our growing parking problem. Skateboarding is virtually harmless and provides entertainment for 'any high school and college students. Individuals who choose to parcipate in this activity should be allowed to do so without being atrassed. Students need to stand up for their rights! The Reagan Administration has silently set up an elaborate military infrastructure in Honduras to prepare for war in Central America. More than 80,000 U.S. troops have been to Hon­ duras since 1981 and nearly continuous training ex­ ercises have been conducted since 1983. Just what is going on? And how does the very controversial use of the National Guard fit into all this? Honduras is a nation of roughly 4.5 million peo­ ple. It lies in a strategic position, sharing borders with Guatemala, El Salvador, and Nicaragua. A short way across the Caribbean sea lies Cuba. Hon­ duras is perfectly situated to be the launching pad for U.S. troops challenging governments or civil in­ surrections which threaten perceived U.S. interests in Central America. And that is exactly what it has become. U.S.-Honduran military relations date back to 1965, although the nature of the relationship chang­ ed in 1979 with the popular revolution in Nicaragua. The significant change, however, came with the Reagan Administration in 1981. He commenced a military buildup in Honduras immediately after assuming office, helping to transform Honduras from a "banana republic" to a "Pentagon republic." In the process, Honduras has lost sovereignty over significant portions of its territory. Honduran citizens are how confronted wun deatn squads, a bourgeoning refugee problem, and cases of the "disappeared." The economy has been devastated by the diversion of resources from local needs to military growth. For instance, last year's budget saw a 10 percent reduction in both the health and education budgets and correspondingly higher military spending. This is a troublesome reallocation for the poorest nation in Central America, the se­ cond poorest in the western hemisphere, after Haiti. Not surprisingly, popular resistance to the newlyimplemented civilian government (1980) has risen rapidly in a nation not known for a history of op­ position. Today, Honduras, a country the size of Ten­ nessee, is host to 13 U.S. alrbases capable of handl­ ing CI 30 aircraft—the plane of choice for ferrying troops, tanks, and other supplies—six army base camps, four naval stations, four radar stations, an extensive infrastructure of military-capable roads, tank troops along the Nicaraguan border, medical stations set up to handle combat-related injuries, warehouses with engineering materials for wartime construction (bridges, etc.), and so on. More buildup is planned. Also along the border, of course, are contra bases. They occupy significant portions of the El Paralso and Olancho Provinces and have caused the territory To the Editor: Recently there has been much discussion about the fate of the Dougherty house which is owned by ASU. I wish to express my grave concern about the proposed restora­ tion of this building. Quite simple, I fear the University may foolishly spend our scarce resources renovating this dilapidated and meaningless structure to appease a senseless, but vocal, minority. This small group of people claim the Dougherty house is a historical land- mm MiO.0.RTAP. pes ™J&B10 PASS€V(W inmpen. by me way.

This is also the coffee growing area, and is one of the most economically productive areas in the coun­ try. Unfortunately, the contra war has resulted in significant destruction of the coffee trees, and caus­ ed serious loss to the national economy. The National Guard played an integral role in this military buildup. Many of those facilities were built by guard troops on training exercises. Since the guard is not subject to Congressional oversight until they have been federalized by the President, the buildup in Honduras has continued largely out of public view, thus managing to elude the public debate which Contra aid has met. The significance of the Guard's involvement in Central America becomes clearer when understood as part of an evolving shift in military strategy. The Adjutant General of the Military and Naval Depart­ ment in Illinois, Major General Harold Holesinger, describes the "Total Force" Policy: "The Total Force Concept became policy and reality in 1979. It meant that the guard and reserve would be integrated fully into all defense scenarios, would be evaluated against the same measures and standards as the active components, and would be equipped and resourced to fight in America's first line of defense. That decision moved the guard and reserves from a position of being the last to be called to a position of being a major element in the first line of defense." Thus, the role and risk of being a guard member is different than what is generally understood. They have become, in effect, a combat support unit of the regular armed forces. When Holesinger says the guard serves "in the first line of defense" he means that guard members will participate in each and every conflict that the regular military does. Two examples illustrate this very well. The first is the fact that many guard units were purged of women a few years ago to make them "combat ready." The second is the participation of the Air National Guard in both the Libya and Grenada operations. Amazingly enough, their inclusion in these aggressive military strikes against real targets were classified as "training" exercises, the same classification that Guard units going to Honduras receive. This is a significant departure for those accustom­ ed to thinking of the National Guard as a state militia, responsible for handling local emergencies and answerable to the Governor. The Department of Defense now emphasizes both a state and a federal role for the guard, the latter being described as hav­ ing primary importance. Despite advertising by Guard recruiters promising free tuition and other benefits in exchange for "serv­ ing in your local community," the real situation, as we have noted, is very different. Extensive U.S. military activities in the region have another purpose: accustomizing local residents to the U.S. presence. With soldiers constantly com­ ing and going, any escalation in troop presence is not considered unusual. The U.S. military becomes part of the background. This is particularly important when sensitive operations are carried out, where at­ tention could endanger the mission. Thus, every guard training mission in Central America includes things like administering health care to residents, delivering toys to poor children, and so on. The U.S. presence is made to look benign, even salutary. The guardsman who vaccinates the campesino who has never seen a doctor before in his life may feel pretty good about himself and see only beneficial effects of U.S. presence in the region. When this fellow gets back from his 17-day rotation, he is sure to tell his family and friends about the good things he has done, litis is one important way to win the hearts and minds of Americans. Unfor­ tunately the illusion dissipates when the separate pieces are put together and viewed as a unified policy. Political opposition here in the U.S. is mounting, however, despite the best efforts of the Pentagon public relations experts. In 1986, the governors of Massachusetts, Maine, Vermont, New Mexico, Washington, Ghio, and Arizona refused to send their Guard to Central America. Additionally, the governors of New York, Wisconsin, and Minnesota reserved the right to say no on a case-by-case basis. In response, G.V. "Sonny" Montgomery (R., MS) sponsored legislation on behalf of the Defense Department that stripped governors of their veto power over foreign training of the state militia due to the purpose, location, type, or timing of the train­ ing. This "Montgomery Amendment" was enacted in the fall of 1986. Governor Rudy Perpich of Minnesota filed a lawsuit in mid-1987 challenging the amendment's constitutionality, asserting it is a federal infringe­ ment on state's rights. Just a few weeks ago, Gover­ nor Michael Dukakis filed a similar suit when the Department of Defense asked Massachusetts to send thirteen press officers to Honduras for 'training.' Governor Dukakis said "Let them write press releases from Massachusetts" and filed his lawsuit. The governors are on good legal ground. The United States constitution reserves to the states the authority for training the state militia according to the discipline provided by Congress. This means that Congress sets the standards for military readiness, and the states have the responsibility of seeing to it that those standards are met. The current policies are clearly unconstitutional. Burn the Dougherty house by Berke Breathed 'LOOM COUNTY 'ffcurn THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDA Y, APRIL 14, 1988 ..A wme AMERICAN my OF UFA 15 PISAFPBARINO eecAuse me oovr. won't neLP our.? mark and worthy of preservation. I disagree. The Dougherty house is not historically significant. The ex­ istence of this home had no impact on anyone but the family it housed. The school itself is the true monu­ ment to the accomplishments of the Dougherty family. Also the structure of the Dougherty house must be in complete decay. Any building of that size which requires $140,000 worth of work needs more than renovation; it needs rebuilding. The University Administration's responsibility is to provide facilities and personnel for the students so that we may acquire the best possi­ ble education. The Administration should not waste either money or land on this ridiculous project which is truly the folly of a few misguided individuals. The financial resources some would like to see spent on this rotten, deteriorated house would be better spent stocking our library with the literature it sorely needs. I am also shocked and sickened by the fact that a group of Watauga County citizens, known collectively as the Dougherty House Memorial Committee, is willing to spend $140,000 to rebuild this worthless, decrepit hulk while ignoring the social welfare needs of this com­ munity. Hunger still exists among our neighbors here in Watauga County. There are people who can't heat their homes during the winter. There are seniors at Watauga High School who have the aptitude to succeed in college or trade schools but won't be able to afford the cost. (Don't worry; they will make a fine lot of grocery clerks and groundskeepers.) While people remain hungry, cold and uneducated in Watauga County, the fine citizens of the Dougherty House Memorial Committee have collected $70,000 to spend on their shrine of frivolity, ignorance and in­ humanity. I wonder if a hungry man went to the members of the Dougherty House Memorial Com­ mittee and asked for money to buy food would they turn him away? Would they let a fellow man go hungry in order to save their Dougherty house? The truth is they know the hungry will never ask them for help. Surely the people in need won't make a pubiic appeal for assistance. Well I'll make the request on behalf of the less fortunate members of this community. Please do not waste the money you have collected on this senseless renovation. The preservation and promotion of human welfare and human dignity must take precedence over the needless restoration of a building. Establishment of a scholar­ ship fund and a donation to the Watauga Hunger Coalition would be a much greater honor to the Dougherty family and the people of Watauga County. What should we do with the house? Burn it down! Michael Rust ASU P.O. Box 16299 Monument should be preserved AN OPEN LETTER TO THE ADMINISTRATION OF ASU: It would be a gracious announce­ ment if the administration of Appalachian State University would reverse the decision to remove the house of the founders from the campus, and would allow the old homeplace to remain on the site where it was built in 1903. The preservation of the house would be a generous and gracious gift to this area, and would recapture the wonders of earlier times. It would be a continuous thread running through the fabric of what has become a seat of higher education in North Carolina, and recognized throughout our nation. The house is where the brothers D.D. and B.B. Dougherty did their figuring and planning—by the light of the oil lamp. The house would grace the campus, and also remind future generations of the humble beginnings of a great university.

As of March 26th, reports were being made on local radio stations that "skateboarding is banned on the Appalachian State University campus." When I first heard of this, I called the ASU Security Office and inquired as to why, I was told that there was con­ cern that the skateboarders would be hit by the vehicles that perform various duties on campus. I would point out that small children on skateboards have much less velocity as those Appalachian students who hyperbolically "fly" across the con­ crete walkways. The point was also made that "many" pedestrians have been hit by persons riding skateboards. Several of my friends and I agree that there is much more danger being hit by a speeding stu­ dent, whether on a bicycle or in a car, or by a misguided Frisbee. Without mincing words, I would state that since this decision was made, that those skateboarders who remained on campus have been deliberately and unfairly harrassed. For example, several friends of mine were skateboarding in an empty parking lot during the Easter weeekend when ASU Security of­ ficers arrived and asked them to leave. Other children have been ask­ ed for their name and phone number countless times. It would seem to me, an objective but interested observer, that the ASU Security Of­ fice should attend to pressing needs such as parking and traffic rather than cracking down on this "scapegoat problem" of a few dependants of Appalachian's faculty who happen to enjoy skateboarding on our campus; a campus made possible through the tax dollars of their parents.

Applicants must be U.S. citizens at the time of application and hold a bachelor's degree or the equivalent by the beginning date of the grant. Grants are usually for one academic year and provide for round-trip travel, a maintenance allowance for the tenure of the grant and tuition waivers. Interested students should contact Tom Adams, Fulbright Pro­ gram Advisor, in the Office of International Studies. A group of students have joined forces to save ASU's oldest building. Students to Save the House, headed by Becky Higbee, held their first rally and open house Wednesday, March 30, to promote awareness among students of the historic significance and impending fate of the Doughterty House located on Rivers Street. The house, built in 1903, was the home of B.B. and D.D. Dougherty, the founders of Appalachian State University. The Dougherty brothers also contributed much to the entire Boone community by building the Watauga County Hospital and New River Light and Power Company. "Everything at ASU began with people who lived in the house. Now it's up to the students and the community to put pressure on the administration to preserve the history of the university by restoring the house where it stands rather than relocating it as proposed by the university," Higbee said. Over 800 people attended the rally and open house. Higbee and Matt Hawkins held tours of the house during the rally to let people know that despite the rumor the house is capable of repair and renovation. Domino's Pizza provided free food, Record Bar gave away free music, and Selector Records gave away T-shirts to support the group's efforts to keep the house on its historic site. In addition to holding the open house, Students to Save the House and director of The Dougherty Committee (comprised of concerned Boone citizens) Bill Bake, met with Chancellor John Thomas. Thomas will decide the fate of the house and whether to relocate the house off of state property. Thomas says, the money already raised by ASU alumni and others (approxSee STUDENTS Page 2 Former Overseas Students Sought Students who have studied abroad for a semester or a year on the college level should contact the Office of International Studies.

Appalachian Photo by Nancy Schulti The Dougherty House founded in 1903 Appalachian Photo by Kim Smith Landlord of the Year Award presented to Anne and Charles Hallman of Westmont Apartments The Spring Apartment Rental Fair held last Fri­ day in Varsity Gym gave students the opportunity to speak with landlords and receive housing infor­ mation. "When you have all your options right in front of you, you can make a better choice," ASU stu­ dent Sally Stringer said. "It keeps you from mak­ ing a hasty decision," she said. The idea for the Rental Fair was created by Vice-Chancellor of Student Affairs Dr. David D. Mclntire. "He gave this idea to SGA which coordinated the project. We worked out most of the details, but we (also) received a lot of support from the administration," Scott Post, who oversaw the Fair's operation said. There were approximately 15 landlords in attendance for the five hour event with student turnout considered good. "We had a steady turnout and there were a lot of students when we opened up," Post said. The Fair was mutually beneficial to area landlords. "It gave' us a chance to reach students.. .and answer any questions they might have," Appalachian South Apartment Manager Janet Roberts said. Legal Services was in attendance to advise students and help them understand leases. "What we did was make students aware, before they sign leases, of what exactly that they are get­ ting into," Legal Services* Heidi Van Dine said. "I read over leases.. .let the students know ex­ actly what the leases say. They have a tendency to put a lot of legal terms in there," Van Dine add­ ed. There was some concern expressed by landlords and students on the timing of the event. "I would like to see it done a little bit earlier next year," Roberts said. "We are approximately 85 percent occupied next year and the bulk of our leasing is already completed." This is something that the SGA Off-Campus Affairs Committee is already working on. See LANDLORDS Page 4 New courtesy phones Animal benefit held By SHANNON SPARKS Appalachian Staff Writer SGA expects new system to improve safety on campus By SHANNON SPARKS Appalachian Staff Writer New courtesy phones were installed earlier this month in seven buildings on campus for students' and faculty's convenience. This brings the total to 15 oncampus sites which have courtesy phones. Courtesy phones were first installed three years ago due in part to Student Government. Previous buildings with phones were Broome-Kirk gymnasium, the Student Union, Belk Library, the Cafeteria, Whitener Hall and the Owen's Field House. "I think it's a good idea and I'm glad the administration responded affirmatively to the idea." Dave Mclntire Vice-Chancellor for Student Affairs New sites include Sanford Hall, Wey Hall, Walker Hall, the Scott Industrial Arts building, Edwin Duncan Hall, the Rankin Science building and the Quinn Center. Vice-Chancellor for Student Affairs Dave Mclntire approved the SGA Legislative bill for more campus-wide access to the phones. SGA Student Affairs Committee members Paula Nance and Terri Blackmon presented the bill to Dr. Mclntire in February. "Terri (Blackmon) and Paula (Nance) did all the ground work and leg work on it. We mapped out areas, looked at what buildings had phones and where the student traveled the most at night," Student Affairs Chair Bobby Justice said. "Convenience was one factor and safety was the main factor taken into consideration (for installation 'of the phones)," Justice said. These phones will allow students to call for rides or for an escort to their residence. "Convenience was one factor and safety was the main factor taken into con­ sideration (for installation of the phones)." Bobby Justice Student Affairs Chair "Greeks hold their meetings on Monday nights and a lot of sorority and fraternity members live offcampus so the phones are helpful for them to call for a ride. Also students are able to call when night classes are held," Justice added. Other locations being considered by the committee are: IG Greer, the bookstore, Chapell Wilson Hall, Farthing Auditorium, Smith-Wright Hall and Broyhill Music Center. "The success of these phones will depend on whether any more phones are installed," Justice said. "We'll see what kind of utilization is made and add to it. If there is minimal or no use we'll take out those phones and put them somewhere else," Mclntire said. "I think it's a good idea and I'm glad the administration responded affirmatively to the idea," he added. The Watauga County Humane Society hosted the First Annual Animal Aid Concert at the Black Diamond Inn in Seven Devils, N.C., Saturday. Animal Aid was the idea of Janice Hardy, a member of the Watauga County Humane Society. It received the greatest support from younger members of the Humane Society. They felt holding an event like Animal Aid where people could go to hear bands would be a fun way to generate income for stray animals. Out of 600 tickets 537 were sold. The society had hoped to raise $3600. The money will go toward making repairs on the animal shelter. Renovations such as roof repairs, improvements in the heating system, improvements in ventilation will help the shelter to be better equipped for maternity situations. The problem with stray animals is that people don't make lifetime commitments to their pets. When people move into living spaces that doesn't allow pets, they must give them back. This is especially true for students that must face this dilemma. "We would like to see people put us out of business," Humane Society member Jodie Copeland said. The sponsors of the concert were Woodlands, the Humane Society, Appalachian Mountain Sports, New Orleans Snowball, and Rochelle's Restaurant. Offering services were ASU's Alpha Phi Omega service fraternity, and the Tao Kappa Epsilon fraternity. Alpha Phi Omega took care of parking cars, setting up and breaking down the indoor and out­ door stages, taking money, and cleaning up after the event. The TKE fraternity aided in crowd con­ trol. The Black Diamond Inn donated all facilities, including dining and lounge areas, upstairs rooms for coordinators and volunteers. Black Diamond Inn personnel were responsible for upgrading the sanitation grade and restocking the bar especially for the event. "They have gone far out of their way for us," Copeland said. The Black Diamond Inn also donated accomodation coupons to WXRC for at­ tending the event and broadcasting live with special reports. The major attraction of the event was the 14 bands who played. All varieties of music were per­ formed, from rock-and-roll cover to easy acousticals to alternative and progressive rock and hard core punk and metal. All bands donated their talents and time for the Animal Aid Concert. At the close of the event, it was announced that Animal Aid would take place again next year. SGA fights proposals By NICOLE PARSONS Appalachian News Editor The Traffic Management and Safety Commit­ tee met on March 23 to consider alternatives to Security proposed parking changes. A sub-committee of the Traffice Committee comprised of Student Corky Collins, Faculty member Leonard Bliss and Staff member Diane Brown examined students' responses and presented alternate recommendations to the pro­ posal. The Traffic Committee meets again later this month and will decide whether to pass or veto the recommendations. If the committee passes them, the recommendations will go to the board of trustees to be decided by June 1. If vetoed the recommendations will go back to the sub­ committee to be revised. Any passed by June 1 will go in effect for next Fall semester. Concerning geographic boundaries there was a conflict between those students who are affected by this proposal and those who are not. The com­ mittee feels geographic boundaries would only be beneficial beyond areas currently accessible to pedestrian students. The committee will support this proposal if two recommendations can be met. One is to have the Appalcart pickup every half hour and the second is to have Appalcart booths placed within a threeblock walking distance from a student's residence. The most disagreement occurred in the area of positive control of parking and fines. The Traffic Committee felt the proposals should be research­ ed further so to balance the need between the faculty and staff's right for parking areas and the student's right to access to residence halls. A suggested alternative by the committee was ttf place meters at 10 to 20 minute zones near dorms and to have students pay a ticket fine when meters expire. "This would give us positive control in certain areas so faculty and staff can get in and so students can still have access to residence halls," Traffic committee member Bobby Justice said.

She was leaching English at the university. Many questions concerning the murder have remained unanswered, efforts by Chinese officials to minimize negative publicity has seem­ ed to take priority over the investigation of the killing. Investigators withheld normally publicized information such as the (jme of death, whether the murder weapon had been retrieved, and the fact that Johnston had been sexually assaulted. Also, normal police procedures were not observed by investigators. two hours after' the d'scovery of the body police arrived at the scene and Chinese authorities Ye yet to explain the destruction of 7'den,Ce ,caused by the burning of Johnston s belongings. Director of ASU's China Project Dr. Marvin Williamson said everyone involved seems to view the incident as an isolated or bizarre happening. It may be a distortion to talk about burning of evidence, we are not exactly sure what was burned," Williamson said. "We don't know anything about the traditional ways that the Chinese deal with the property of a dead person." The idea that somehow the Chinese are not doing what they should be do­ ing is speculation," he added. "We have heard, second hand, that every male on that campus between the ages of 16 years and 50 years has now been interviewed by the police." Williamson said he feels everyone needs to know what happened and who was responsible. When a tragedy like this one strikes a community like ours it has terrible reverberations, so we need to be able to put it into some kind of ac­ curate perspective," Williamson said. Reactions among students schedul­ ed to go to China next year are ap­ prehensive. "It's disturbing," Julie Myatt said. Myatt is scheduled to go to China next fall to participate in the pro­ gram.

Students would pay a $50 fine if caught parking in such areas. No objection was made to the park­ ing for university and state-owned vehicles. In reference to off-campus storage of vehicles the committee argues that the possibility of eliminating incom­ ing freshmen from bringing automobiles on campus may be detrimental to both the university and community. The committee would like to see ad­ ditional security measures taken and the installation of security phones at off-campus parking areas. ("Security) will work in making these areas well-lit and have a shuttle system for storage lots straight to campus," Justice said. Recommendation made to the parking fees were that all students pay the uniform transportation fee and that the parking fee remain at $30. 'This was one of the biggest con­ cerns for students and the best thing to come out of this is we won't have 24-hour ticketing. ASU has had 24 hour ticketing in the past due to revenue lost in positive control but now the added revenue from meters and from the public transportation fee will take care of the lost revenue," Justice said.

THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDA Y, APRIL 12, 1988 ETCETERA Resources and Reading Sanz enjoys career By MARY K. MILLER Appalachian Staff Writer I want! I want! I want! Alright, I know, I know, I haven't written a column in a long time and you are all clamor­ ing for more. Well, the reason I have been so absent is because, well, I had to sign up for payroll, and the groceries were low and there was this girl from USC, oh, never mind... all really com­ plicated stuff. I was telling my roommate, Eric, (y'all know him, the guy with long incredibly kept dark hair and funky clothing) that I was going to write a serious piece of work. I lied. The old listing routine worked well. A lot of people enjoyed the top tens of 1987 so I think another set of miscellaneous and somewhat self-perpetuated ramblings is in order. Did ya' ever notice that Americans are only interested in wanting more stuff (no, I'm not doing a Carlin routine) but it is quite true, all we do is crave stuff. Yeah—so, 1 like stuff and here is what I want. 1 want to be 6'4", another two and a half inches and it's all me, pal. 1 want my own ski slope so I can get even better than I am now and kick everyone's derriere. I want a black Porsche, any model, I'm not gonna be real picky here. I want to nuke the Middle East (not really, Molly, just being a humorist). I want 22 inch biceps (another two and a half feet and it's all me, pal.) 1 want a six foot Opus doll to tell my problems to. I want to sleep late, everyday.. .for the rest of my life, man! I want the dryer on my floor to dry my clothes all the way. 1 want Cindy Crawford... (Sports Illustrated, cover of Cosmo... 'nuff said.) I want to be mayor of Daytona nn^f * papers and project due dates are creeping up tQcV ° °- i_US' and a" '^e hooks needed for the dreaded arC e er on extended loan to a faculty member or h VSterl0USly disappeared from the shelves of Belk Library But the resourceful college student knows about the wealth of knowledge tucked away at the Watauga County Library on North Water Street. County Librarian, Shirley Wayland, said "The public library is a hidden resource a lot of ASU students aren't aware of," when the books needed aren't at Belk Library, the county library can be used as a supplementary resource," Wayland added. Included in the 38,000 volumes lining the shelves at the county library are books on art, women's studies and North Carolina and Appalachian history. They also hold issues of the Watauga Democrat on microfiche dating back to 1887. The county library offers some special services not found at Belk Library. Back issues of magazines can be checked out and tapes from their small collection of classic movies can also be checked out. Along with special books and services, the public library offers a less formal environment for research. Public libraries can be more familiar territory and a bit less in­ timidating for first and second year college students, Wayland said. "We'd like to see students feel more comfortable about using the (public) library," Wayland says. Although many people use public libraries exclusively for recreational reading, Wayland says it is considered an educational institution as well as a catalyst for community events. They sponsor a variety of lectures and special pro­ grams throughout the year for the entire family. One of the most important programs offered by the public library is adult basic literacy. Tutors undergo minimal training by the library staff and usually devote no more than one hour per week to teaching basic reading skills. Wayland encourages any fraternities or sororities look­ ing for service projects to contact her for ideas. Volunteers are always needed at the library in areas such as the adult basic literacy program as well as the childrens program and circulation. Student volunteers can be used on a regular or a one­ time basis. Over 36 people volunteered their services to the library in 1987. Practice leads to perfection Group performs original modern, ballet, and jazz pieces What is fun, exciting, yet painful? Rewarding, wonderful, and frustrating? It is the Appalachian Dance Ensem­ ble, which will be performing April 21, 22, and 23. The Appalachian Dance Ensemble is a group of dance students who per­ form and choreograph original, modern, ballet, and jazz pieces. The choreographers observe dance classes and choose students who fit the type of dancer they need for their piece. Rehearsal for the spring performance begins in November, and the dancers are required to attend two technique classes a week as well as all rehearsals. Several dancers reflected on their experiences in the dance ensemble. Dancer Kim Cantwell, who has been in the ensemble for three years, said, "It's hard work and painful but a worthwhile experience." Dancer/choreographer Monroe Moore, a four-year ensemble member, commented that it changes every year with new dancers and choreographers, and he agreed that it is a time-consuming but great ex­ perience. After being in the ensemble for three years, dancer/choreographer Leigh Ann Walker remarked, "The ensemble is what has kept me at ASU. Although it is often frustrating, it teaches one to be patient and respon­ sible, and altogether it is a very rewar­ ding experience. There is so much to explore in dance. There also does not have to be a meaning within the movement. People should try to enjoy the movement for what it is." First-year dancer Lauren Honess believes that the ensemble is impor­ tant because the many hours of dance class pay off, and it reveals what all the classes have been leading to. Also, it teaches you to function within a group and depend on others. Please come and support all of the hard work and effort put forth by the ASU Dance faculty, choreographers and dancers. It promises to be three evenings filled with much creativity and enjoyment. The Appalachian Dance Ensemble will be performing at Chapell Wilson Auditorium at 8 p.m. Tickets are $4 for adults, and $2 for student and children. Tickets will be available at the Chapell Wilson Box Office the week of the performance or at the door. and being at ASU By DAVE BOWEN Special to the Appalachian "I can rest when I'm dead," Ap­ palachian State University's new director of Counseling and Psychological Services Donald L. Sanz said. Sanz came to ASU in August from Ohio where he was the associate direc­ tor and a counceling psychologist at the University of Toledo. Sanz is a workaholic and is busy getting ac­ customed to his new job. One thing Sanz is looking forward to is getting his first program, Peer Career II, off the ground. "I get very excited about helping others," Sanz said. "I want to be the best at what I do." Sanz likes to develop programs us­ ing paraprofessionals, students who are trained to help other students. The Peer Career II program follows this format. Sanz has worked with Jon Hegeseth, associate director of Counseling and Psychological ser­ vices, on developing the Peer Career II program. "Don takes his profession very seriously," Hegeseth said. "It's more than just a nine to five job." The Peer Career II program is located in Plemmons Student Union. Although it would seem Sanz would have his hands full with his career, he still manages to find time to help others. The former Green Beret likes to use his talents to help fellow Vietnam Veterans. "I am very proud of the seven years I have been able to work with Viet­ nam Veterans." Sanz said. He is 45 years old, married, and has one daughter. A Floridian, he attend­ ed Florida State University, where he holds a doctorate in Counseling and Human Systems. "I came to ASU because I wanted to be director (of the Counseling and Psychological Services program) and because I like the South. The think I like most about ASU is the concern for students at all levels," Sanz said. Since he spends much of his time in his office, Sanz has given it his per­ sonal touch. "He has lots of gadgets in his of­ fice, for kids of all ages," Hegeseth said. When Sanz needs to relax, however, he knows just what to do. "I enjoy racquetball, baseball, softball and golf; but, I think I like boating the best," Sanz said. Sometimes Sanz and Hegeseth play racquetball during lunch. "He is very competitive and is an excellent racquetball player. When he lived in Ohio he competed in several tournaments," Hegeseth said. Sanz is quick to laugh, especially at himself. "Don has a very dry sense of humor," Ellen Arnold, counselor, said. "Life is difficult and sometimes a little humor is all you need to get you through," Sanz said. "One day while I was playing golf, I made a beautiful shot from the tee onto the green with a seven iron. While I was walking up to the green, a big gust of wind blew the ball off the green into a sand trap. See SANZ Page 8 Beach.

She was dressed surprisingly well—no leopard pants. In fact, you could say she was the cat's meow, but I'd rather not. She offered me a cup of Dutch Choc­ olate Mint. Now that was something I could relate to. Then she brought it out in the most beautiful, distinctly unfeline china I'd ever seen. As we sipped, I found out that Mrs. Campbell has my same weakness for chocolate, loves the theater as much as I do, but, incredibly, never saw "Cats." So Mark and I are taking her next month. m«•#» Intern is in 8-5, M-F Experienced Attorney is in Monday & Tuesday 24 Wednesday & Thursday 10-12 Workman General Foods' International Coffees Share the feeling.

Et Cetera Editor "Go To Health," the *88 Health Fair hosted in Plemmons Student Union on Tuesday, March 29, was a "hot spot" of furious activity. Students could come by and check out a variety of information on exer­ cise, stress, health, nutrition and more. Some liked it hot as taboo sub­ jects like AIDS, Family Violence, Rape and sexual abuse were discussed in literature. "It look< teresting so we decid­ ed to drc ; ' Christi Watts said. Vince ana Larry, the highway patrol dummies, were a favorite of "Vince and Larry have been real popular," Wellness Intern Alice Gray said. "They walked around yesterday and went to the Quinn Center hand­ ing out literature, balloons, buttons and suckers." Community organizations were well represented at the Health Fair but student workers were at the hub of activity. Student Wellness Adivsory Team (SWAT) members manned booths and had fun along with their health enthusiasts. "It's been real good," SWAT member Catalina Henao-Robledo said. She explained that SWAT members give student programs to residence halls and other interested organiza­ tions. Their program menu includes: Jump Up Jack, an exercise and fitness program and Sexpectations, a pro­ gram to determine personal sex values. Health issues, smoking and nutrition are covered in other pro­ grams. SWAT headquarters are located in the Wellness Center in room 104 Workman Hali. If your residence hall or organization would like to set up a program call 262-3148 for more information. SWAT members weren't the only student workers.

Smita Pamar, a BU student major­ ing in Anthropology, expected to see more poverty in Boone and less wealth. "I expected it to be dust-bowlish, like Steinbeck. But most of the pover­ ty is hidden," she said. The students also recognized that social workers in Boone and Boston deal with some of the same problems, though on a different scale. "Boston has a huge social services network," Stephen McMahon said. "There's a four-page list of (homeless) shelters and recreation program for kids. Millions of dollars are available in Boston from founda­ tions and organizations, and the population increases every September because of students. .That's an amaz­ ing resource to work with." Boston's resources are also more concentrated than Boone's.

The Dougherty jouse serves as a symbol of their achievements. After their deaths, the home was vacated and allowed to fall into jsrepair. Because of the delapedated condition of the house, it now faces estruction. By destroying this landmark, Boone will be deprived of one of the ,w truly historical sites in the area. The house should never have been allowed to fall into this condition. If minimal steps had been taken in previous years to care for the ouse, it would not be in its present state. Mow, renovation costs are outrageous and are not feasible for the niversity. In a few years, the university may be able to gradually earn money ,r renovation and turn the house into a museum or office building It is not practical to utilize this space for parking. In addition to the estruction of the house, the entire area would have to be leveled. Is it worthwhile to endanger our environment in order to have one lore parking lot? One parking lot will not solve the parking problem. There are several ther locations which could be considered. The university decision to remove the house has aroused attention om several students. The Students to Save The House Committee had circulated umerous petitions in an attempt to prevent removal of the building. But will unviersity officials listen? The enormous support for the group cannot be ignored. Through ontinued support of the Students to Save the House Committee, erhaps we can at least postpone the final decision. We cannot allow our heritage to be destroyed! Support programs Students often complain of boredom at ASU. However, this month numerous special activities are taking place. Vofest will be held on April 22 featuring the Marshall Tucker Band, The Elements and Sidewinder. Other musical entertainment includes the Battle of the Bands on tyril 14 in the Student Union Pub and April 15 at H'Appy's. On April 6, iason and the Scorchers will appear at H'Appy's and on April 19, he Smithereens will be featured. These bands represent a diverse range of talent and appeal to umerous students. , " The Dance Ensemble will perform on April 21-23 and University heater will present One Act Plays on April 14-16. Students now have ample opportunity to see top-notch entertainlent in Boone. Some of the events are rare, and students need to take Vantage of the opportunity to attend. The funding for the bands comes out of student activity fees, wever, additional funds are needed in order to provide students with is type of entertainment. These activities need support to continue. The only way to get big'me bands at ASU is through the financial support of students. Those individuals who complain about nothing to do in Boone have 'viously not attended these types of events. Most of the ASU sponsored events are reasonably priced. These hvities provide tension release during the end of the semester. Take a study break and support our school! Apathy could kill you-literally Please: if you don't read another article in this paper ever again, please, please, read this one. Even if you're bored with hearing about the topic, even if you think I'm too-liberal Commie, even if you think you already know all you need to about this, please: take just a few, tiny minutes to read this article. It could be a matter of life and death—yours. We, as young people, tend to have the attitude that we are immune to the dangers that confront those over 25. We drink, and never think about the possibility that we or someone we know might be an alocoholic. We drink and drive, and never imagine that we might be the ones not to make it home that night. We experiment with drugs (especially cocaine, if we can believe the statistics,) and pay no attention to warnings about addiction and possible death. It's amazing that most of us live to be 25, much less that we get to that age without serious health problems. Most of us, though, have warnings, against the above dangers knocked into us throughout our lives, from seventh grade health class to "Rock against Drugs" on MTV. We know drunk driving can kill us, that coke can kill us, even if we choose to take those risks anyway. However, there's something around now that's even deadlier than the worst co­ caine, and you could be almost dead before you even know you came in contact with it. We've all heard about this deadly stuff—it's called AIDS. Nearly everyone knows that lots of gay peo­ ple have it, and most of us know that using a con­ dom is supposed to keep you from catching it. However, there are lots of lies going around about AIDS, and any one of them could kill you. There are estimates that over 1.5 million people in the U.S. are infected with the AIDS virus. This does not mean they have AIDS, however. Only 20 to 30 percent of those with the virus in their bodies will come down with AIDS in the next five years. That means that a million people could have the virus in their system and be capable of transmitting it, and not even know they are doing so. Those million peo­ ple are not just in big cities, either. Fifty-eight coun­ ties in North Carolina have reported having at least one case of AIDS—imagine how many unknown carriers are around. These carriers are not always homosexual, either, nor are actual AIDS victims. The statement "Stop AIDS—kill a queer" is not only juvenile and idiotic, it's wrong, and could cause further spreading of the disease by adding to the rampant supply of Misinfor­ mation. Kids have AIDS; heterosexual people have AIDS; hemophiliacs have AIDS; lots of people have AIDS who never even dreamed they were at risk. Hundreds more could have gotten the virus the same way—without even knowing they should be concern­ ed. NO ONE IS SAFE when it comes to deciding who migni nave it and who might not. 1 hinKing mat you're in a low-risk group and going ahead with un­ safe sex could kill you. There IS NO safe group anymore—except, maybe, hermits. There could be someone in your classroom tomorrow with the AIDS virus in his or her system. Here at college, we are exposed for perhaps the first time in our lives to the opportunity for sexual freedom and experimentation. People try to pick you up at parties, people try to pick you up at bars, people try to pick you up in class, people try to pick you up in your own dorm—and you might be out trying to pick them up, too. The Pill, up until recent­ ly, was the last word in birth control, and it made it easy for sexual encounters to happen spontaneously without fear of pregnancy on either participant's part. College students are often still in the late stages of adolescence, when sexuality is foremost in many minds, and bisexual and homosexual experimenting can be done without committing yourself to the lifestyle permanently. Far more people have had homosexual experiences than are actually gay or bisexual. Considering that most data places the gay population at about 20 percent of the total U.S. population, I would hazard a guess that another 30 percent had experimented in some way at least once in their lives, placing them smack in the middle of one of the highest risk groups for AIDS. To put it shortly and simply, if you have sex, you are at risk. The only possible exception is if both you and your partner have been tested for the AIDS virus twice in the last six months and both of you came up negative both times AND neither of you have had unsafe sex since then. That's a stiff order, and it applies to everyone, not just those people in high-risk groups. As I said before, and as others have noted many times in the past, young people are notorious for believing that "it can't happen to ME." Not only is this not so for alcoholism, drug addiction, and many other deadly problems wrongly associated with "the older generation," it's not so for AIDS as well. In North Carolina alone, over 30 percent of AIDS cases are people between the ages of 13 and 30. Many leading AIDS researchers and task force leaders believe that college students will soon become one of the higher risk groups in terms of the miscuity, experimentation, and mainly a lack of will­ ingness to use safe sex practices. Sex is still "naughty:" you're not supposed to be doing it, so you certainly shouldn't act like you were prepared for it to happen. Come off it, folks. Most people who pick you up are not wanting to hold your hand, chat about the weather, and peck you on the cheek at 11:30 in the lobby. It's time for us to get real and admit that we think about sex, and that a whole lot of us do more than think. Keeping a pack of condoms in your medicine chest won't kill you, neither will going to the drugstore to buy them, but it could very well kill you not to have them. You can hide them when Mom or Dad come to visit, just like you hide that nudie magazine you bought at the Pantry at 2 a.m. the night you got so drunk. A large percentage of ASU students come from one of the major metropolitan areas, like Charlotte, the Triangle, or the Triad. Well, about half of N.C.'s AIDS cases have been diagnosed in one of the metropolitan areas. Home is definitely not a safe place to mess around. Going to a city to get your sex­ ual kicks is statistically much more dangerous than staying in a small town: just don't forget that ASU makes Boone a city in miniature when it comes to problems like sexually transmitted diseases. We are quite lucky here at ASU in that Dr. Evan Ashby at the infirmary is one of the few physicians in North Carolina that are willing to talk openly and honestly about AIDS. He works on the ASU AIDS task force, and has allowed his name to be placed on the N.C. Department of Human Resources list of contact physicians for distribution and publicity among high-risk groups. Dr. Ashby is obviously a courageous and caring man, and we are lucky as ASU students to have such a resource available to us. AIDS is deadly, and thus far, incurable: but it is also preventable. No one has to get AIDS ever again. The gay community has for many years now engaged in active promotion of safe sex practices, and as a result, has dramatically lowered the number of new AIDS cases among gay people. However, the heterosexual community has been much slower in responding to the threat of AIDS with safe sex pro­ motion, and, not surprisingly, AIDS in the heterosexual community has increased. Straight peo­ ple can no longer afford to think of AIDS as "the gay disease," or "the IV drug users' disease": anybody can get it. And anybody can use safe sex and be much less likely to. The choice is up to you. Just remember: that little piece of latex could save your life. Lesbian and Gay Health Project P.O. Box 3202 Durham, N.C. 27705 (919) 683-2182 Roanoke AIDS Task Force P.O.

WHEW' POPS SO ONCE AGAINALL IN FAVOR OF OPUS AS 0VF •fg V P NOMINEE By LEATHA FIELDS Appalachian Columnist Before we begin this, let me clarify something—I have never been on a diet. I'm chunky and I love it. The closest I have ever come to being on a diet was when I was 13, had the stomach flu, and was too nauseous to eat for four days. Other than that, forget it. Admit it to yourself—we all have an ong°'ng VieWS love affair with f o o d A t 1 a.m., when we're trying to avoid studying for a sociology test "or reading an ex­ istentialist novel, don't we all call Domino's and order pizza, knowing that the two-minute call, 30 minutes of waiting for the piz­ from the pspTiamopy PEMOCFACY PUT A LUMP IN YOUP MOAT, TOO ? / - SpOStlC za, and the hour-and-a-half it will take to consume the pie will give us a good 122 minutes to dodge whatever homework awaits. Admit it! When we're feeling slighted or we've been the victim of an ugly breakup, we find solace in Twinkies and cheeseburgers. We're human. I think the practice of making any human emotion caloric began with the first Yiddish grandmother, but I won't get into that. Why would anyone want to diet? Unless one is seriously overweight, in which case one NEEDS to diet, why bother? I have never had a friend I consider "chunky," "fat," or "obese" say they were going on a diet. Only sickeningly thin people say that. Think about it—your 5'8", 110-pound friend puts a hand wistful­ ly on her flab-free waist, sighs, and says, "Ohmigod, look at all this cellulite." "Where?" you ask, looking at your own legs. "Right HERE," she sighs, patting her hips, which could fit through a staw. "I'm sooo fat; I'm going on a diet today." And she does. The two of you go to lunch. You eat a baked potato, a ham sandwich, ice cream. Your friend eats a radish. "That's IT?!?" you say. "Yes," she says. "I'm on a diet." "My god," you say. "That's not food. That's a Fraggle car." But she is thin, and you aren't. That's the thing I despise most about people who look like a match with glasses and who are dieting... they always make you feel guilty. But I'd by far rather die fat and happy than gasp on my death bed, "Why oh WHY didn't I eat Chicken McNuggets when I had the chance.?" Making interviews memorable IF SAM P0NALPS0N MOMENT, 5H0ULPASK, HE'S PLUME HE'S JUST IN PASSEP OUT A paiotous FEPVOR. ASATN. yes, wen, AT-me V J By MICHAEL R. COOKE Appalachian Columnist WHAT'S THAT? SPEAKING IN TONGUES T \ GONNA BE A LONG CAMPAIGN. / Interviews, interviews, interviews. If you want a job you have to go through them. But interviews aren't a whole lot of fun, so here are a few suggestions guaranteed to liven up any business day. Everyone knows what you are supnosed to do in a formal business ap­ pointment (be on time, be prepared, firm handshake, etc.), but why do things in a conventional manner? Celebrate your individuality and let that dormant creativity bloom! My first suggestion is to flaunt the norm in dress. Think of how memorable you will be by wearing a Hawaiian polyester shirt, sunglasses, and a jock to the interview (especially you ladies). The interviewer's day will not be the same after you arrive, breaking out of the dreary procession of business suits. Second, try out some alternative methods of speech. Perhaps you could answer all the questions in a Czechoslovakian accent, or what the heck, just go crazy and use another language altogether. You'll really win points and influence if you make up a language on the spot to use and in­ tersperse the conversation with lapses of gibberish. Always be ready with some pseudo-scientific explanation to cover yourself, for example, "It's Na­ tional Roondese Amalgam Language Appreciation Day and I'm ap­ preciating it." A third idea is to remember that manners are just a state of mind. If you go out to a business lunch, try eating without your hands. See INTERVIEWS Page 11 U I Ml IV I �10 THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDA Y, APRIL 12, 1988 WASU's brand of new music has social relevance for today's student I ' Dear Ms. Childers, The March 17th issue of the Ap­ palachian contained an opinionated article by Eric D. Miller on the augmentation of the social and political apathy among college students since the I960's. Mr. Miller gave the impression that the majori­ ty of students fall into this category of unconcern. He later went on to isolate and direct this hypothesis toward ASU students as well as state how this attitude affected the recent election for SGA president and vicepresident. I couln't agree more with Mr. Miller about the number of ASU students who are apethetic toward campus, and more impor­ tantly, world concerns, yet I wouldn't go as far as to stereotype all college students into this oblivious group. I am from the North and the col­ lege students there are much more conscious about current political and social issues. Not only do they display their opinions openly and verbally, it is also evident in their style of dress, their hairstyles, and the music which they listen to, all of which Mr. Miller found to be secon­ dary to their attitudes. All of these personal attributes are concomittant to an individual's attitude toward the world. One's attire, haircut, and musical tastes are characteristics which are determined by and are unique to the individual, and in most cases reflect one's attitudes. The conformity of our society, however, has a great influence on one's appearance and in a lot of in­ stances restricts this display of per­ sonal preference. This leaves us with the extreme essentiality of music in the representation and development of political and social ideology. Music has and will always be an influential medium through which political opinions and views can be expressed. As college students, we are in the prime of the development of our social and political beliefs, to which music should be a con­ tributing factor. The point that I am trying to make is that the format of our campus radio station is not con­ ducive to or representative of the general consensus of college students throughout the nation. Our radio station does a great job of rivaling the banal popular radio stations which clutter our radio dial, yet it does a poor job when it comes to formatting the music of college students. There are many students at ASU who have never heard of any of the groups who have albums in the col­ lege top ten, while some don't even know such a category of music ex­ ists. For those who are not familiar with the music of college students (progressive/alternative) it for the most part addresses issues of con­ cern in the world and/or takes a more realistic view of life. Come on people, it is about time that we realized that we are not living in a music video. The college top ten is determined by the frequency of airplay this category of music receives on college radio stations. Just the other day I was listening to WASU and the people who were on the air gave the late« , as according to Roll „C°lleg Magazine.

There are already too many popular radio stations on the dial, so shouldn't WASU live up to their slogan and truly be 'The only alter­ native'? There are many campus radio stations in the United States whose format is strictly aimed towards a progressive audience. I am by no means suggesting that WASU should adopt this same format, for variety in radio programming is very important, but I do feel that the music of WASU is too vaired and our radio station should devote far more air time to the music of college students. Since progressive music contains more political overtones than its popular counterpart, maybe the increase of it's air play here at ASU could help diminish the apathetic attitudes of many of our students and at the same time help in the formation of their political opinions. I am not criticizing the perfor­ mance of our DJ's, for I feel that they do a very good job. I am only suggesting that they formal more of our music, college music. After all, shouldn't a college radio station play college music? The key to the interview is available r°m Master Lock.. .no, wrong The key could be the little things you pay attention to. There could be one thing you do that every other interviewee forgets or is too timid to try. For in­ stance, the handshake. To grab atten|!°n. coat your palm with lard, or hide a dead fish up your sleeve and really give that businessperson a dead fish handshake. What about your posture in the interview room? The best solution (outside of throwing yourself on the desk or lying in the floor) is to flaunt conventionality again by sitting with your back turned to the interviewer. That really breaks the tension of looking someone in the eye. Perhaps you are now asking yourself why one would want to be so different and odd. I don't know why, but Robin Leach said something vague about all interviewees looking like they came from a cookie cutter. "To distinguish thyself, that is the question," as Shakespeare might have possibly said if I had told him to. Well—do you want to be generic or do you want to be an individual? Are you willing to sacrifice your precious, personal beliefs and mannerisms to get a job and see the world? Why—not at least you get paid!

The TKE fraternity recently held a clean-up project that in­ volved the area from Walker Hall down to the baseball field and the creek beside Rivers Street. For several hours beginning at 5 o'clock Sunday afternoon, March 27, the Alpha-Nu pledge class of the TKE fraternity worked to beautify the area. TKE Tim Bowles hopes that students will notice the dif­ ference and work hard toward keeping the campus clean. I feel that it's a waste to make the campus look like that," Bowles said. About eight guys carried out the project. We have our pledges do a service project every semester and this is what they chose to do," TKE President David Matheson said. We felt it was a good idea because often people don't take pride in the community, this is our way of taking pride in it," he added. The Kappa Alpha's have been involved this spring with renovating the Jone's House under director Elly Lyne. They spent 20 hours this past weekend and 25 hours two weekends ago on activities such as stripping old shallack, cleaning the basement and picking up trash inside and out. T he house will be available for displays such as art displays and community meeting space and will be renovated for com­ munity offices.

"The purpose of the Summer Job Fair is to help students locate summer jobs before leaving school for the summer," Coordinator of Student Employment Debbie Thomas said. The Summer Job Fair was the first held at ASU, with over 700 people attending the event. "Due to the response, we will have another one next year," Thomas said. "With the vast number of companies and organizations represented, there are not many majors who couldn't find some type of career experience," she added. Harris-Teeter, Frito-Lay, and Carowinds were a few of 65 organizations represented. "We have had a very good response," Merritt Saunders of Frito-Lay said. "This job fair gives a student an opportunity to explore our company." Another organization looking to recruit summer help was Carowinds. "Carowinds entertains over two million people each year," Carowinds recruiter Donna Newcomb said. "We employ 3,500 people each season," she said. Newcomb's job is to visit colleges and schools in North Carolina to recruit summer help. "Working at Carowinds is a great learning experience as well as a means of having a good time," Newcomb said. Carowinds often hires permanent positions from their pool of summer workers. "Over all, the job fair was a great success. We are well pleas­ ed," Debbie Thomas said. Thomas hopes to see the Summer Job Fair become an an­ nual event. Freva von Moltke a member of a Nazi-resistance group during World War II spoke Wednesday night in Broyhill Music Center sharing her insights and experiences. Her presentation "In Praise of Hi,lory" was part of von Moltke's work with ASU's philosophy and history departments during the week. She discussed her interest and sup­ port for the philosophy of Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy, a man she met and worked with from the 1920's until his death in 1973. Rosenstock-Huessy served in World War I and taught law at Breslau University until he was forced to flee Nazi, Germany. His major works deal with history, time, language and industrial society. "He believed history progressed through time periods, tribes, empires, Jesus, and one thousand years of church power. The last one. thousand years, which we are now closing in on, is one in which we have made nature serve us," von Moltke said of Rosenstock-Huessy. She also spoke of her role in the Kreisau Circle, a group which was devoted to ridding Germany of Adolph Hitler and his Third Reich and which sought to prepare Europe for a postwar world of international cooperation. The Kreisau Circle was comprised of von Moltke, her husband Helmut von Moltke and 20 other persons. "It was a way of getting those against Hitler, together. If you have a common adversary you come together and listen to one another," von Appalachian Photo by Jimmy Guignor Freya von Mollke Moltke said. Unfortunately several of its members including her husband died at the hands of Hitler's secret police force. She escaped in 1945 and trav­ eled through Switzerland, South Africa and settled in Vermont where she presently lives. "My story is of defeat, death, and lack of success and why should it be remembered because it is valuable for Germans and others who resisted the Nazis. I think we must remember,' von Moltke said. "The pain that the world has fell from WW II and its atrocities will not be over soon. It will take another one thousand years to overcome this. We must remember this past, what it means, and what it did," she added. Ms. von Moltke feels historical education is necessary and through such education the world could be a better place.

William Byrd was recently honored for his contribution to scientific research on campus. Byrd was presented a plaque in appreciation of his support of scientific research by ASU's scientific research society Sigma XI. "He recognizes the value of scientific research to maintain­ ing the vitality of the faculty," Sigma XI President Dr. Don Caton said. "We wanted him to know we're very appreciative of his efforts." Byrd said he is pleased with the growth ASU has experienced in recent years in the area of scientific research. He added that he feels research does not detract from classroom teaching because it involves faculty with the disciplines they are teaching and gives students a chance for growth. "We want this to be a place where good scholarship is the baseline for our operation, and classroom teaching is an im­ portant aspect of good scholarship," Byrd said. Byrd said scientific research at ASU has been beneficial in its contribution to the literature of the disciplines involved. Byrd received his bachelor's and Master's degree from N.C. State University in engineering physics, nuclear engineering and math. He received his Ph. D. in physics and nuclear engineering from Pennsylvania State University in 1963. Byrd came to ASU from East Carolina where he was chairperson of the physics department. He was named Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at ASU in 1984. "I see ASU as a developing institution that is good and is going to get better," Byrd said. �4 It> 4 i» .. 4 4 4 It » * % ;• V* 4 4 4 4 -a * 4 Maryland students protest drug testing (CPS)—More than 100 University of Maryland students protested the school's effort to make some students submit to drug tests March 9, just days after a Seattle federal judge ruled the National Collegiate Athletic Association's (NCAA) mandatory random drug testing program for athletes was legal. Maryland is the first school to make nonathletes caught possessing drugs take subsequent drug tests in order to stay in school. Eddie Joski, the president of Stand Up For Your Rights, a student group opposed to drug testing, said the pro­ gram is a public relations move designed to counter negative publicity They just wanted to get something out there to save face. We want to help students, not humiliate them." President of Stand Up For Your Rights Eddie Joski brought to the university from the death of Maryland basketball star Len Bias. It was Bias's cocaine-related death in 1986 that prompted dozens of col­ leges around the country to start testing athletes, and in some cases other students involved in extracur­ ricular activities. "They're using pot smokers as a scapegoat," Joski said. "The univer­ sity needs a more sane policy." Joski called the program an un­ constitutional violation of civil liber­ ties and personal dignity. Instead of drug testing, he said, the university should increase educational efforts to combat drug abuse. "Students come to the university for education, and education should be the number one priority," he said. "They just wanted to get something out there to save face. We want to help students, not humiliate them." "The university was under a lot of WACCOM: is an ^ v,r remote system which signal that is rehr pr°d«J' WASU. microphone individuals views and events and WAGCOM pressure to get tough after the death of Len Bias," Maryland's director of student discipline Gary Pavella said. Pavella said under the new policy, students accused of drug use are brought up on the charges before a student discipline board. If the board finds them guilty, the students are suspended for one semester and removed from university housing. "But it's not an automatic penalty," Pavella added, "we distinguish marijuana from PCP or cocaine. Students can instead request participation in the drug testing pro­ gram, and prove to us they are no longer using drugs." Students who opt for the drug testing program will be randomly tested three times during the academic year. If the results show they have used drugs, they are again brought up on charges before the discipline board. The students are then required to pay S25 per test. While students do get counseling, drug "education" itself doesn't pro­ vide enough incentive to quit drugs Pavella said. The National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML) has offered free legal sup­ port to the "four or five" students Pavella said have opted to enter the program. "Several courts hae ruled that urine testing is an invasion of privacy. It is an unreasonable sanction which the university has no right to impose on its students," NORML national director Jon Gettman said. In February, the University of Washington, faced with a lawsuit it felt it couldn't win, announced it would no longer require athletes to undergo drug testing. Washington cross-country runner Betsy O'Halloran and the American Civil Liberties Union sued the school and the NCAA, claiming mandatory drug testing violated her constitu­ tional rights.

DWI can be proven in two ways: —by proving the driver's physical or mental faculties are noticeably impaired, by alcohol, drugs, or both, regardless of how low the blood-alcohol level appears on the breathalizer. -by proving the driver's alcohol concentration is .10 or more at any relevant time after driving. •f a person is charged with DWI the DIPPING IS FOR DIPS. HI After a DWI conviction the trial judge must hold a sentencing hearing to determine punishment. The Safe Roads Act established five levels of punishment, they include: Level one: If two or more impaired driving offenses within seven years, or any other two grossly ag­ gravating factors are present, punishment is a mandatory minimum of 14 days and up to two years in jail or a fine of up to $2,000 may be imposed. Level two: If one grossly ag­ gravating factor is present, punish­ ment is a mandatory minimum of seven days and up to one year in jail. A fine of $1,000 may be imposed. Level three: If aggravating factors outweigh mitigating factors, punishment is a minimum of 72 hours of community service, 72 hours in jail, a 90 day revocation of driving privileges, or any combina­ tion of the three.

U.S. District Court Judge Walter T. McGovern ruled O'Halloran's privacy was outweighed by the interest of the university and the NCAA to protect student-athletes from the "temptations to use drugs" and to insure "fair competition for student athletes." McGovern said the NCAA is a private, voluntary association which cannot be held to federal constitu­ tional standards even though many NCAA members are state institutions that are required by the association's rules to enforce drug-testing. Maryland's Pavella says he's not sure testing athletes without reasonable evidence that they've used drugs is a sound idea. He's also not "comfortable" with testing students who have been found guilty of drug charges. "But my conscience will be clear if I can help a young person break a habit that threatens their health and future career," Pavella said.

This is a fact that the ad­ vanced directing students are well aware of. The students in this class will each be directing a one-act play for their class project. The first set of one-acts will be done April 14-16. The second set will be done April 28-30. "Directing is a lot more work than people think," says Danielle Drapeau, an advanced directing stu­ dent. "It is more involved than I ex­ pected, but it's definitely worth it." She goes on to say that directors are involved with casting, set design, lighting and costuming. Each student director picks the play she/he will produce. The play that Drapeau has chosen is Present Tense. Drapeau says that her play is full of stereotypes, so casting was not much of a problem. Open auditions were held, but most of the actors in Present Tense are theatre enthusiasts people. Kristi Nicholson, a student director of Corning Through the Rye, wanted Is everyone having a crisis or what? Why is it that every person I've talked to singled out this week as the worst in their entire life? As I sit here eating this onepound can of peaches at 1 a.m. (you know big test coming up, gotta study). I wonder why peo­ ple bitch? You know really com­ plain like how they want their life to end tomorrow, why were they born, etc., etc. v I had the best girls' bull session (yes guys, girls have them too) tonight and it really opened my eyes to a lot of stuff going on. I was complaining (you know the b-word) about how slack everything is, hard classes, the traffic proposal is a farce, impending financial disaster, the usual. I can always complain about something; my mom says it's my nature. Anyway, the general consensus is it is not the students' fault for not getting involved in campus organizations, or even for not caring about issues that affect campus. No Mountaineers, I'm not blaming you for your apathetic selves. It is something far bigger. It is the system—plain and sim­ ple. The (system where you join a club, organization or whatever with great expectations and get squat. You go to meetings trying to get involved but there is so much red tape you don't bother. It is much easier to go home, call an order in to Dominos, and sit around watching A Different World until you vegetate to death The world is full of mindless, self-absorbed zombies who can tell you every plot line to every episode of every sitcom.

Have you been in sexual jeopardy ? By APRIL GRIFFIN El Cetera Editor Are you in sexual jeopardy? If not you can be. A fun answer/ question game of sexual "jeopardy" will be held on Wednesday, April 6, in The Pub from noon to 1:30 p.m. Question categories will include men's and women's health issues, sexual trivia, AIDS and more. If you have difficulty with sexual questions never fear. Celebrity con­ testants will be at wits end trying to answer the diverse and sometimes zany questions. Ms. Ellen Thomas, assistant professor of the HEPELS department and Dr. Ken Peacock, assistant professor of accounting will be out there to win. Gary Greene and Frank "Moose" Callis, SGA presi­ dent and vice-president elect, will also be working as a team. "It's going to be a lot of fun," ASU Wellness Center coordinator, Susan Stamper said. "The contestants we have chosen are kind of crazy and we're going to make up the rules as we go along." After the game, there will be a panel discussion and informal ques­ tion and answer period with Dr. Evan Ashby, Dr. Peter Reichle and Ms. Rebecca Scott, P.A. who will also act as judges for the game. Student ques­ tions will be taken, with AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases also being discussed. The video "AIDS: Changing the Rules" will be shown after the discus­ sion. "It's a video about how AIDS is af­ fecting people other than gay males and IV drug users," co-chairperson of the AIDS Task Force Barbara Daye said. "It's narrated by Ron Reagan and has been shown on PBS." Students may feel they don't need to know the facts about AIDS but Daye disagrees. "People want to ignore AIDS, and they think it will never happen to them. Whether or not you put yourself in jeopardy, you need to learn more about AIDS." The more you know about AIDS the less there is to fear and the video discusses what casual contact with a carrier is and other pertinent informa­ tion. The Jeopardy Program is a col­ laboration between the AIDS Task Force and the Student Wellness Ad­ visory Team (SWAT). "Some of our students (SWAT members) had gone to a conference where they played sexual jeopardy so we decided to use it as a fun way to give students information," Stamper said. Come out and join the contestants for an informative, off-the-wall good time and learn more about health issues affecting you. You won't ever feel "jeopardized" again. Appalachian Photo by Jimmy Guignord an unusual piece. "I read a lot of oneacts and 1 haven't seen this one per­ formed before at ASU," Nicholson said. "It's kind of different. For these one-act plays, the set designs are simple, involving only a few pieces of furniture. Costumes are also going to be fairly simple. Some of the students are even wearing their own clothes. However, the directors are careful that their clothes are ap­ propriate for the performance. A great deal of time is spent in rehearsal each week. "We average about three rehearsals each week," Drapeau said, "About one and a half to two hours at a time." When asked if all the work was worth it, Drapeau said, "Oh yes, 1 en­ joy it a lot. You really put yourself in­ to it. You get to make a statement." Dr. Susan Cole, the Director of ASU Theatre, teaches the advanced directing course. "I work in a super­ visory position for these plays," Cole says. "It is fun being able to see students put something they've learn­ ed into production." 'She Stoops' showcases talent By NATALIE KURYLO Appalachian Staff Writer Saturday night's performance of She Stoops To Conquer was a brilliant production of an 18th cen­ tury comedy written by Oliver Goldsmith. Directed by Susan S. Cole, the casting of the characters couldn't have been better. The sets and lighting, designed by Frank C. Mohler, were realistic with respect to the period of the play. Small details, such as the English tapestry in the Hardcastle mansion, made the setting all that much more believable. The costumes and wigs were well done replicas of the English fashions of this period. Designed by Martha A. Marking, the costumes were incredibly detailed, from the colors of the materials used to the numerous buttons. The wigs were also true to the period. The disarray of Mrs. Hardcastle's wig was especially endearing after she told Hastings she had styled it herself. The talent of all the actors was evi­ dent, but two of them truly stood out. Karen Duckett as Constance Neville and Eduardo Alen as Charles Marlow both gave outstanding per­ formances. Duckett moved well in the full costume of the time. As Mrs. Hard­ castle's niece, she was calm and dignified in contrast to Mrs. Hard­ castle's wonderfully loud and overbearing manner. Alen gave a hilarious performance as Charles Marlow, the potential suitor of Kate Hardcastle. His brashAppalachian See 'STOOPS' Page 7 Photo by Rich Koon Scene from She Stoops to Conquer.

The service was quick, efficient and friendly. Drinks were refilled fre­ quently and our food was delivered promptly. The only problem that I noticed was a lack of customers on a Friday night. This is unfortunate because the sandwiches were delicious and afford' able. Piccadeli is located next to the Sun Spa on Highway 321, and perhaps this poor location causes lack of business. Piccadeli also offers a take-out ser­ vice which many people may not know about because it is not well advertised. Hours are Monday through Satur­ day from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Take-out service is also offered during these hours. Many other restaurants have tried to get off the ground in the same location; obviously without luck. Hopefully, the management will increase advertising because other­ wise, Boone residents may never know what they're missing. Restaurant It's a shame when a really good restaurant doesn't get the patronage it deserves. The Piccadeli is one such restaurant. Piccadeli specializes in sandwiches. The "Create Your Own Sandwich" system is especially appealing, and customers have a wide selection to choose from. I selected trie^vegetarmn-sand-wich for S2.95. My friend chose the turkey breast sandwich for S3.95. With each sandwich, the diner chooses one of seven breads, one of five cheeses and an unlimited amount of condiments. All sandwiches include potato chips. A nice addition to the meal was an order of onion rings. For only $1.25, we got a huge order of thickly sliced onion rings fried in a golden batter.

The pursuit of a tan is on everyone's mind because it gives a healthy and attractive glow. However, there are some facts about the sun'e effects on your body you should consider: Appalachian Wellness Center factor of 15 are recommended. Don't forget to use your sunscreen on overcast days because the sun's rays are still as damaging. * The ultraviolet rays of the sun are the most frequent cause of skin cancer. Be aware that certain medica­ tions can increase sensitivity to the sun. * Deliberate and repeated suntanning contributes to aging of the skin, premature wrinkling, and blotchy discoloration. Change sunscreens if you develop an allergic reaction from its use. * The effects of the sun's ultraviolet rays are cumulative and irreversible. * Beware of sand, snow, concrete and water because these surfaces can reflect more than half the sun's rays on your skin. There are several population groups that are at a higher risk of developing skin cancer: * Avoid tanning parlors because they also emit damaging ultra­ violet light. * people with fair skin who burn easily * Don't forget to use sunscreen during high altitude activities such as mountain climbing. At high altitudes, where there is less atmosphere to absorb the sun's rays, your risk of burning is greater. * those with blond, red, or light brown hair and blue, green or grey eyes * individuals who spend a lot of time outdoors * people with skin diseases * those who have a family history of skin cancer * individuals who have large moles that vary in color, have irregular borders, and occur in great numbers However, if you refuse to go without that summer tan, there are some guidelines you should follow to protect your skin: * Minimize sun exposure during the hours of 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. when the sun's rays are strongest. * Apply a sunscreen at least an hour before every exposure to the sun, and reapply frequently and generously, at least every two hours, or after swimming or perspiring heavily. The sun provides health benefits such as helping the body produce vitamin D and battling skin disorders (acne and psoriasis), but the amount needed to do this is very minimal. The American population sees a suntan as a semblance of health, youth, and beauty, when in fact is speeds the aging process, while increasing the chances of skin cancer. The fact remains, however, that most people will refuse to give up their dark tans, but we urge you to take precautions and protect yourself.

"I have led a fruitful life," he thought. "It will be good to rest." Andar rose stiffly from his bed and slowly walked over to the large triangular window that dominated one wall of his quarters. He looked out, down into the castle courtyard below. His gaze travelled around the grounds, taking in guards, knights, and servants as it went. "King Garth wil have no trouble finding a new wizard to be the Royal Magician," he thought, "not with ail his wealth and power." Suddenly, Andar's body was seized by another coughing fit and he had to go back to his bed. Just as Andar was laying down, the door to his room slowly opened, and there stood Tysson. "Come in my young apprentice, come in. It is alright," Andar breathed. Tysson sat on a chair beside his master's bed. The boy was con­ cerned about his teacher. Every time he went into the tower to check on the old wizard, he seemed worse. "Master, I heard your coughing as I approached. Are your illnesses still troubling you?" he asked. Andar turned his tired, grey eyes to look into Tysson's bright, brown ones. "Yes, I am still unwell," he answered. "I believe my time is almost up." Tysson could not believe his ears. "You are dying, Master?" he asked. "But you cannot be!" Andar raised his hand and silenced Tysson. He sat up. slowly, and propped himself up with his pillow. "So tell me boy," he said softly, "why can I not die?" "Because you still have much to accomplish! King Garth needs your wisdom and your powers!" Tysson responded. Andar looked at the boy. "The King can find another wizard, one that always sees things his way."

Garth was a good man, and a good king, but he and his wizard had not always seen eye to eye. Tysson stood up and walked over to Andar's worktable. He looked at all the beakers, containers of potions, and books spread across it. After a few moments, he looked at his teacher's bearded face and said, "Master, there is one more thing." He hesitated, then went on, "We have not finished my training." Tysson's voice was very low and sad. Andar nodded, signifying his understanding. He then adjusted his old, undecorated robes and slowly got out of his bed. His apprentice moved to help him, but the wizard waved him away. Ignoring the pain in his back and limbs, Andar went over to his worktable and sat down. The boy sat in another chair across from him. Andar began looking through his books, and after a few minutes, he slid one of them across the table towards Tysson. "Yes, we do not have time to finish your training, but you do," he said.

As spring spreads it warmth over the land, baseballs start flying around backyards, parking lots, and major league training camps in Florida and Arizona. Looking back on last year, it is time for baseball to make a few changes in the playoff system. Whatever it says on the Minnesota Twins championship rings* they were not the best team in baseball last year. Unlike most sports, baseball does make the regular season count for something more than ex­ panded gate profits. Only two teams per league make the playoffs. Since the expansions and move to divisional play, have the two best teams in each league mov­ ed into post-season play? The pattern has become redun­ dant. The better Eastern team', beat their brains out playing each other while the Western teams feast on their weaker interdivisional foes. As a year in example, 1987 was a fantastic year for the underdog. In the National League, the St. Louis Cardinals won the East while the San Francisco Giants won the West. Of course, the Giants were not the second team in the NL. The New York Mets were the se­ cond best team last year. Tk(American T-eague playoffs were a travesty. In late September and early October, the Toronto Bluejays and the Detroit Tigers fought each other for the title of best team in the American League. After reaching the heights against Toronto, the Tigers had nothing left to give against Minnesota. The Twins may have won the Series, but they did not deserve to be in the playoffs. What choices are open to baseball to remedy the problem? Baseball could take the two teams with the best records from each league and have them play off, or only the best team from each league would advance into post­ season play. Naturally, the Western teams will complain, but now the incentive will be there to honestly com­ pete with the Eastern powerhouses. What would happen if the leagues did away with divisional Play? For the first me in recent memory, Western teams would be forced to build solid minor leagues and put out money to keep their Players and maybe bid on some free agents. Divisional play has taken some °f the luster from the World eries. Back in the days when only °ne team made the playoffs, there ^as a real sense of league unity ehind the representative to the ser|es. Today, there is even talk of mterleague play. Pragmatic baseball fans know at the League Championship eries can never cease to exist.

Appalachian Staff Writer The Appalachian State baseball team remained in a tight race for the •southern Conference's North Divi­ sion crown by splitting a doubleheader with arch-rival Western olina. Appalachian won the first game 3-2 while the Catamounts ran away with the second, 9-2. The Mountaineers, who have won the North Division the last four years, upped their record to 15-4. While the Catamounts saw a six-game winning streak snapped by the Apps, their record fell to 18-14. In the first game, ASU pitchers held Western to eight hits and two runs. The game was tied 2-2 at the end of regulation (seven innings for double-headers) after Western put their final run across the plate in the „ . top of the seventh. Neither team threatened to score in the eighth but the Apps did halt a Western rally in the top half of the ninth. ASU centerfielder, Keith Nail, threw out a Western player at home as he attempted to score on a sacrifice fly. The Apps quickly regained the momentum as they were able to load the bases with just one out in the bot­ tom of the ninth. Western's Paul Menhart, who pitched the entire game, then proceeded in walking in the winning run to make the final score 3-2 in favor of ASU. Menhart, who got the loss, saw his record slip to 3-1 on the year. While the Apps Chris Dovel, who entered the game in the eighth, got the win. He is now 3-0. Dovel picked up where Pete Palmer, who started the game, ± left off. Palmer gave up just one earned run in almost seven innings of work. "We had outstanding pitching from both Pete Palmer and Chris Dovel. But the key to winning this game was our defense. The put-out at the plate in the ninth was just an excellent defensive effort," ASU coach Jim Morris said. In the second game, the Apps pitching got rocked for nine runs while the Catamounts' Doug Udzilla silenced the Mountaineers' bats to just five hits. Udzilla went the distance for the Cats, improving his record to 2-4. "He pitched a super game. It was probably the best pitching perform­ ance we've faced all year with the possible exception of the Clemson game. The young man deserves a lot o - •— Catamounts of credit," Morris said. The game started out with both teams jumping on the opposing pitch­ er for two runs in the first. Freshman Scott Waugh led off with a single and advanced to third on a double by Gary Chandler. Waugh then scored on a SAC fly by Nail which was followed by a run-scoring single from Tommy Green to make the score 2-2. However, the Apps were able to muster only two more hits the rest of the way in a game that, for all prac­ tical purposes, was over after the fourth inning. The Catamounts went ahead to stay in the second inning with a towering homerun over the right field fence. Western followed that up with a three-run fourth inning and a two-run tifth. Although the Apps had scoring threats in the third anu fourth inniim-ais uic uuiu and tourtn ings, Udzilla would allow no more runs. Western Carolina was led by freshman Mark Poareh who was perfect at the plate, going five for five in the double-header. Appalachian was led by another freshman, Waugh, who went 2 for 3 in the nightcap. ASU's next game is this Friday at Lackey Field at 1 p.m. The team will square off in a double-header against Marshall and then the two will meet again on Saturday at 1 p.m. And no one needs to remind ASU Coach Jim Morris of the importance of these games. "The North Division has turned into a four team race and right now we're tied with Marshall for the topspot. If we can continue to play good defense and get some injured people back in action, then we'll be in goodsnape, Morris said. shape," Morr Track teams compete in Atlantic Coast Relays By TREY BARRINEAU Appalachian Staff Writer ASU's Men's and Women's track teams traveled to Raleigh last weekend for the 16th annual Atlantic Coast Relays. Perhaps the story of the meet for ASU was Lamonda Miller. She qualified for the NCAA Champion­ ships in the 100 meters. Her time of 11.48 seconds also set a school record in addition to giving her a spot in the NCAA Championships, to be held in Eugene, Oregon in June. Miller later placed second in the 200 meter invitational with a time of 24.14 seconds. In other events, the 4 x 100 meter relay team of Miller, Lynett Farmer, Stethane Pipkins and Deirdre Keys placed sixth overall with a time of 47.14 seconds. In the 4 x 400 meter relay, the team Appalachian Photo by SID Lamonda Miller of Appalachian Photo by SID Beth Ruggles Pipkins, Keyes, Farmer, and Melissia Rogers placed eighth overall with a time of 3:56.5, one second shy of a new school record. The 4 x 800 meter relay team fin­ ished sixth with a time of 9:26.6. The team consisted of Jennifer Bowers, Vanessa Tysor, Traci Mclntire and Karen Osada. The 4 x 1500 meter relay team of senior Beth Ruggles, Bowers, Tysor, and Osada placed fifth overall with a time of 19:24.13. Ruggles has helped lead the 4 x 1500 relay team to outstanding finishes all season. Holly DeCann finished seventh in the 10,000 meters with a time of 39:30.5, bettering her personal best by 35 seconds. ASU did well in the field events as well. Patricia Denson placed fifth in the high jump with a leap of 5 feet, 4 inches. The Apps defeat Livingstone with a 5-4 victory By KIMBERLY SMITH Appalachian Staff Writer The Men's Tennis team is coming along pretty well this season. They have worked hard, and the hard work is paying off. Even though ASU was not expected to have a really great season, they have maintained a win­ ning record of 8 wins and 7 losses. The Mountaineers were able to defeat Livingstone here at home last Tuesday evening. The team score was 5 to 4 with individual wins from Rodreich Pierre, Dan Mackin and David Pharr. In doubles, David Riggsbee and Brian Crosby were able to pull through and win for Ap­ palachian. The Apps were scheduled to play last Friday also, but the match was postponed due to rain. It has been rescheduled for April 20. Coach Bob Light is pleased with the team's play and how they are pro­ gressing this season. "The boys are playing hard. Thats about all you can ask for," he said. They have won several matches which they were not expected to win, showing dedication and determina­ tion that this ASU team has. The Mountaineers are-led by their four returning players, Tim Smith, Brian Crosby, David Pierre, and Dan Mackin. They are performing steadi­ ly, and their experience is evident. Kevin Leary, David Pharr and David Riggsbee are three newcomers that are making good contributions to the '^Looking at the remainder of the season Coach Light seems to think the matches are going to be tough. Although the team has done better than they were expected, the most dif­ ficult part of the season is coming up after Easter break. They have nine matches coming up in April and are only favored to win one. Coach Light believes they are really going to be challenged in order to have a winning season. Although hopes are not very high, they will still strive to do the best they can. With a lot of hard work, they will try to pull through a couple of matches in which they are not favored and win. Coach Light's squad would like to express their appreciation to the students who make it to the matches to cheer them on. He would also like to encourage all students to come out and support the tennis team, especial­ ly those who enjoy playing tennis. He believes that watching the matches can improve playing strategies and abilities. The next home match is against Catawba College Thursday at 3:00. ASU is favored to win this match, and it would improve their record before they enter the bulk of their more dif­ ficult match. After another month of play, the Apps will go to the Southern Con­ ference Tournament. The tournament will be held at Western Carolina from April 29-May I. TennesseeChattanooga, Furman and Davidson are expected to be the top contenders in the tournament. Hopefully, Ap­ palachian will be able to play with in­ tensity and surprise a few Southern Conference contenders with an upset. ~ Patrina Massey finished sixth in the long jump with a distance of 18 feet, 8 inches. In the triple jump, Linda McKoy came in second with a distance of 38 feet. Overall, Coach John Weaver was pleased with his Lady Mountaineers performances. "Of course, Lamonda Miller is excited about qualifying for the NCAA's," he said. "This past meet was a really competitive one. Forty teams were present, but we still managed to finish in the top 10 in almost everything and that's great." Coach Bob Pollock's Men's team also ran well at the Atlantic Coast Relays. "This was a good meet for us," Pollock said. "We saw a wide range of competition." Three of ASU's athletes placed in the 100 meters. Frank Allen finished thirteenth overall with a time of 10.76 seconds. Darryl Russell and Keith Collins tied for nineteenth in a time of 10.93 seconds. Allen later ran in the 200 meter invitational, finishing seventh in 21.72 seconds. The 4 x 100 meter relay team of Russell, Allen, Warren Posey and Collins placed fifth with a time of 41.44 seconds. Dean Duncan ran to an eighth place finish in the 1500 meter invitational with a time of 3:52.5. In the 5,000 meters, Scott Vance placed seventh with a time of 15:04.5. Pete Vandenberg finished fifth in the 5,000 meter invitational with a time of 14:29.7, a personal best for him. The 10,000 meter run saw Morris See TRACK Page 10 ..... .. Appolachlab Photo by SID Miller crosses Ihe finish line first for ASU Umpires learn art of officiating By JAMIE MOSER Special lo The Appalachian In their never-ending fight for ex­ cellence, ASU's intramural depart­ ment has once again strived to achieve the best performance from its employees. This time, in particular, the em­ phasis is on softball umpiring. And with the "huge" warming trend here in Boone, it is time once again to head to State Farm fields and hit and catch a few softballs. So, innrHer to insure the students they are getting a fair shake from the "ref", ASU's intramural department has sponsored a softball umpire cer­ tification clinic. It is now mandatory for all intramural softball umpires to be certified before going out on the field. The certification clinic was held March 14-24 in conjunction with the American Softball Association (A.S.A.) Each participant had to pass a written test and skills test before be ing certified. Softball umpires attend officiating clinic A key speaker in the clinic was Dan Blair, N.C.'s Umpire-In-Chief. Blair currently resides in Gaston County and travels up to 40 hours a week helping to train and certify new um­ pires in the N.C. area. Blair has been Umpire-In-Chief since 1968 when, he said, umpiring was not taken too seriously. He hopes his influence has helped to advance the idea of fairer and more precise officiating.

BROWN, Editorial Production Manager TERESA CHALK, Advertising Production Manager Students need to show support for campus facilities H'Appy's and the Student Union Pub do not have the student supthey deserve. Attendance at Thursday night events at H'Appy's is often extremely w low Why don't students take advantage of these shows? _ perhaps the bands are unkown to most students. It isn't always possible to get big name bands with a limited budget. port What people don't realize is the time and effort spent in selecting entertainment. The APPS council reviews several bands and makes diversified selections that will appeal to a wide range of tastes. Just because a band is unfamiliar does not mean it isn't any good. People often go into situations with low expectations and are surprised when an event turns out to be entertaining. By seeing bands that are relatively unkown, students can expand their knowledge of music and possibly discover a new band to follow. With the large range of diversified talent out there, why not give these bands a try? Students may also complain because H'Appy's doesn't have a bar. Many people go out in the evenings specifically to sit in a bar and order drinks. What is often overlooked is the amount of money students can save by brown-bagging. On a typical students' budget, any money that can be saved is viewed favorably. Admittance costs are also very reasonable at both H'Appy's and the Student Union Pub. Prices range from $1 DJ nights on weekends to S2-4 for Thursday night shows. Occasionally, prices are higher depen­ ding on the event. Students cannot get better entertainment for the money. Off-campus and upperclass students often complain about the large number of freshmen that attend these events. This attitude is ridiculous. Upperclassmen with this attitude should stop being so pet­ ty. These facilities are there .for .all students and should be used by allstudents. Clubs and organizatons have the opportunity to rent these facilities for functions and fundraisers. The Student Union costs $50 per night and H'Appy's costs $200-250 depending on the function. The prices may seem high to some people; however the cost includes security fees. Many people do not want to pay money for added securi­ ty; however it is always wise to take safety precautions during events. With good advertising, clubs and organizations can make a great amount of money by sponsoring events. Fundraisers are often tedious, is much more entertaining to go dancing than it is to sell doughnuts raffle tickets. The university has put great effort into providing these entertainfacilities for students. A greater effort needs to be made on the art of students to support these events, especially since a portion of ms money comes out of student activities fees. ient The A.P.P.S. Council is open to suggestions about programming, myone can join, and input is appreciated. The only way to get bands lat are appealing is through input. Get involved in selecting programI lin8 for our university. Champion: Death for dollars Just south of here, in Haywood County, one of the foulest chapters in the history of America's ef­ forts to stop pollution is being written and rewritten on a daily basis. I'm talking about the struggle to clean up the Pigeon river, presently fouled by discharge from the Champion paper mill in Canton, NC. As far back as 1983, people were filing lawsuits against Champion International Paper Company due to the damages to health and the environment the Canton mill had caused. Yet even after years of mediation and legal difficulties, Champion still has not cleaned up its discharge. Champion claims that the cost of installing technology in the Canton mill to clean up the river would be so great that it would be forced to close the plant, which employs 2,300 people in the area and is _ Canton's major source of employment income. This c'aim has scared most of the local citizens into supporting Champions continued fouling of the river. However, if looked at in a broader sense, the claim seems absurd. Champion International is the 86th largest com­ pany in the world, and the fourth largest in the forest products industry. Their 1986 sales were over $4 billion. They have annual assets of over $6 billion. In the past 10 years, Champion has earned $1.28 billion, and paid its stockholders over $621 million. It pays its top officials over $6 million, or around $300 thousand apiece. One projected cost estimate to clean up the Pigeon River was around $60 million dollars, which would reduce their prospective earn­ ings by $7.8 million, or around eight cents a share. Champion projected 40 percent profits for 1987, an increase of 17 percent over 1986; the Canton mill produces about one-third of the total coated paper used in the U.S.; it seems Champion could afford to spend a little money to update the pollution process­ ing of the Canton mill. Champion has claimed for many years now the discharge was only "harmless" colorant that did lit­ tle more than change the color of the water and cer­ tainly was not a health hazard, despite the fact that only so-called "garbage" fish (they can survive in garbage) inhabit a river that was known for its ex­ cellent trout fishing before the pollution. However, recent reports from other paper mills using the same treatment process show the presence of dioxin, a highly toxic cancer-causing compound once used in the defoliant Agent Orange. The EPA has begun sampling for fish in both NC and TN to test for dioxin's presence in the Pigeon River (i.e. in Champion's discharge). The first sample, taken January of this year, did not even come up with enough fish to conduct all the testine. Perhaps this fact alone ought to say something to the EPA; or, if they don't consider the lack of fish enough evidence, then perhaps they should look at Hartford, TN. This small community of 500 people on the Pigeon River downstream from Canton has experience 167 cancer deaths in the past 20 years, according to one infor­ mal survey done by town residents. One group of riverside residents has banded together to act as a unified voice against continued contamination by Champion. This group, called the Dead Pigeon River Council, is now urging the Tenn. Dept. of Health and the Water Control Board to look into the possibility of ground water contamina­ tion around Hartford from the Pigeon River. These tests are currently on hold pending a review of the EPA's dioxin test findings: or, in other words, God only knows when. Meanwhile, Hartford residents and many others downstream will continue to suffer. Before the Pigeon River reaches Canton (where Champion uses 43 million gallons daily, or 90 per­ cent of the total river), it is a Class A-II trout stream, and its water is safe for drinking. Below Canton, the water is so foul that the town of Newport, TN, although the Pigeon runs through the city, uses water from the French Broad six miles away for town drinking water. Residents reported that about three years ago, the few fish that they could still catch from the river started showing up with "a kind of blue mold on them and their eyes were funnylooking." This is coming from people who had lived near the river all their lives and had seen all kinds of fish. Champion likes to talk about its efforts in the 1960's to clean up the river; but considering that on­ ly worms could live in the river then, a river that once supported hundreds of fish and aquatic species, it doesn't seem like something to be very proud of that cleanup efforts have succeeded only in returning "garbage" fish, when the corporation has the ability to fully clean up the river and has not done so. In November 1985, the EPA stepped in and took over the issuance of discharge permits from the North Carolina Environmental Management Com­ mission, a move which implied that extraordinary neglect had been noted by the federal government in enforcement of environmental standards. The state EMC responded by showing up in court on Cham- pion's side, on the grounds that the EPA had violated the EMC's rights. Oh, right. Of course, Champion Paper had high praise for the "professional job" the state EMC had done. Personally, I would call it something else (that's not fit to print). The federal EPA is now in charge of issuing per­ mits for Champion's continued discharge. In Spring 1987, the EPA issued a permit draft that would call for Champion to drastically clean up its discharge, especially in terms of coloration, which would also cool the discharge in the cleanup process. Cham­ pion, of course, appeals any decision that would mean spending money to clean up anything. At the present time, Canton's economy is dread­ fully dependent upon Champion, because there has been little effort to diversify. Coming as I do from a town once dependent upon coal mining (a very troubled and depressed industry), I know what it is like for a town to lose major employment income. However, I also know it's not the end of the world, as Champion has tried to tell Canton's citizens. Every area, no matter how rural or desolate, has other income possibilities. One study done by a com­ munity college indicates that a clean Pigeon River could directly bring in over $7 million a year in tourism, much like the famed Nolichucky just "over the hill." This study did not even look at the increas­ ed possibility for agricultural development or other industries besides Champion that would preserve the river instead of destroying it. Champion has been selectively "streamlining" its worldwide operations in the past few years—this basically means cutting liabilities, laying off workers, and closing less-profitable operations. They have also been planning a new, multi-million dollar mill in Halifax, NC. The Canton paper mill is 79 years old, and is mainly outdated. With the new mill already planned, it is unlikely that Champion would revamp and continue operating the Canton mill. It seems as if Champion is trying to squeeze all it can out of Canton and the Pigeon River as a last gasp before closing the plant. The EPA may be speeding the process along a bit, but it seems in­ evitable that the Canton mill will close in the foreseeable future anyway, regardless of whether clean water standards are enforced or not. The way things are going, Champion will get to dump the blame for closing the plant onto the environmentalists and come out looking like the beaten underdog rather than the money-grubbers they are. They will then be able to repeat the Pigeon River misery elsewhere without interference, until the death toll rises again. Dougherty family deserves more respect To the Editor: In Ruby J. Lanier's book Blanford Barnard Dougherty: Mountain Educator, Mrs. Nell Phipps recounts the following story: "My father and his young son, Clint, were driving an ox wagon along the road in the Crumpler com­ munity, collecting toll from threshing they had done in the neighborhood. A young man over­ took them, riding horseback. He asked my father to give him the oral examination for the teacher's cer­ tificate While the boy drove the ox­ en along the road, the young man by Berke Breathed / rn V6RY r \ Paula Childers PiSftPFOINTEP / PUTTING SUPERWE IN MY GHOSTS BEFORE MY PETE TONIGHT...

This young man passed the examination and received his North Carolina Teacher's Certificate for Ashe Coun­ ty. He became one of North Carolina's greatest educators. His name was Blanford Barnard Dougherty." The man who gave B.B. Dougherty his first teaching cer­ tificate was my great-grandfather, M.M. Blevins, Superintendent of Schools in Ashe County. The woman recounting the story was his daughter, and my great-aunt. The little boy mentioned in the story is my grandfather. In the earliest years of this century, my grandfather, Clint Blevins commuted forty miles on foot from Crumpler to Boone to study and become a qualified teacher at the institution that has become ASU. My mother, my father, an uncle and three of my aunts graduated from Appalachian State Teacher's College to work as teachers, librarians and education ad­ ministrators in this state. 1 am cur­ rently a student at ASU, and plan to pursue a career in education. I feel strong ties to the university and to the people who made this school more than a good idea. ASU's current administration wants to move the Dougherty House to some location that is more convenient, or to tear it down altogether. In its place they would like to build a lovely parking lot. I think such action would be as tragic as the destruction of the beautiful land near the Broyhill Center. Clearly, ASU is a vital and grow­ ing institution. The university must continue to grow and progress, as I am sure the Dougherty family woula have wanted it to. It is up to the current administra­ tion and student body to distinguish what is progress and what is destruc­ tion. I think that tearing down or removing the Dougherty House from campus would be destroying another valuable piece of ASU history. It would also be an injustice to the Doughertys, a family who have con­ tributed a great deal to this'school. Losing the Dougherty House would take away a great deal of character and heritage from ASU, and would be one more step in mak­ ing our school Generic State Univer­ sity. ASU has an interesting history, a history some of us are proud of. I hope that those of us who care can make ourselves heard and keep the Dougherty House where it belongs—right where it is!! William Clinton Baldwin ASU Box 11122 The other side of animal rights To the Editor: There were two articles in the Thursday, March 24 issue of The Appalachian that 1 thought were a little misleading. These articles are on the use of animals for research and food, but they only tell half of the story. I do not wish to degrade the articles or the writer but I would like to show the other facts that were left out. My information comes from an arti­ cle in Readers Digest (March 1988) by Dr. Richard J. White entitled: "The Facts About Animal Research." First of all, the use of animals has been very useful in medical research The use of insulin for the control of diabetes, organ transplantation, open heart surgery, and the cardiac pacemaker were perfected by research on dogs and other animals. Polio, which killed and crippled many people, is now obsolete in the United States because of vaccines that were perfected on monkeys. Children infected with lymphatic leukemia now have a 71 percent bet­ ter chance of surviving than they did just 20 years ago because of animal tests. Animal research has brought about the immunizations for mumps, measles, rubella, diptheria, and has brought about antibiotics to cure against infection. Lastly, research has also helped the household pet by finding cures for rabies, feline cancer and many other things. Every week there are over 200,000 cats and dogs abandoned. If they are caught by the pound, they will be put to death if they are not claimed. Some of these animals might be used to save a human life someday. In 1986, two percent of these pound animals were used for research while over 10 million were destroyed. Think about it, most of us do not like snakes, however, they do have rights also. Do we mind go­ ing out of our way in our car to use these same snakes for speed bump research? Next, before anyone can say these animals go through cruel and unusual punishment, some things should be known. First, any research that is federally funded has an "Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee" which is staffed by medical research scien­ tists, non-scientists, people unaf­ filiated with the institution, veterinarians and other federal agents. These committees assure that misuse of animals does not take place. The government funds over 800 institutions, which is a lot of committees. Secondly, there have only been six cases of abuse (or neglect) since 1981. Lastly scientists want clean, physically healthy and mentally healthy animals for their research, so why would they wish to abuse them. For my last point, I do agree that research costs are overwhelming. However, a lot of the cost is related to animal rights activists who decid­ ed terrorist activity was the best way to disagree. For instance, activists set fire and vandalized the veterinary diagnostic lab and campus vehicles at the University of California at Davis. This escapade cost 3.5 million dollars, much of which is paid by taxes. "The Band of Mercy" then set 28 cats free from the Agricultural Research Center in Beltsvilie, Maryland. Eleven of these cats were infected with toxoplasm condii, a parasite which infects pregnant women and causes over 2000 birth defects annually. Lastly, the Animal Liberation Front caused over $680,000 worth of damage, set loose 467 animals and set loose a monkey that was being taught to help blind children at the University of Califor­ nia at Riverside. This set their research back two years. In the past two years, animal rights groups have been involved in 26 serious crimes at medical research facilities which has attributed to the high cost of research. 1 do agree that thee may be a few sadistic places that abuse animals, but 1 doubt it as most institutions See ANIMAL Page 12 �12 THF APPALACHIAN, TUFSPA >.

She offered several viable alternatives to driving drunk that all of us should heed. However, Ms. Childers should have included with our responsibility not to drive drunk our responsibility not to allow others to do so either.

Vice-Chancellor for Business Af­ fairs Ned Trivette responded to over 125 students' questions and com­ ets Tuesday night.

Many questions seem to remain unanswered in students' minds as the meeting ended. Many felt that not enough time was allowed for students to express their views on the proposals. The six proposed changes are exten­ ding geographic boundaries, restric­ ting certain areas, paying an annual public transportation fee of $20, parking for university-owned vehicles, off-campus storage for vehicles and a payment plan for park­ ing fines. "It is obvious there has been a problem with Security at ASU and there needs to be a considerable amount of fine-tuning in student in- I was real pleased with the turnout ot students. It was more students than ve seen since I've been in Senate," Beeker said. By MARY K. MILLER "I asked Ned Trivette to come because of student concern. If I receive more interest from students concerning anything about traffic and parking I will see what I can do about further meetings because 1 know that many students left with questions. Senate cannot pass something without students having a say in the matter, she added. Appalachian Staff Writer The six proposed changes are extending geographic boundaries, restricting certain areas, paying an annual public transportation fee of $20... off-campus storage for vehicles and a payment plan for parking fines. ASU security has added a new evening foot patrol officer to their staff to cover the central and eastern part of campus. The officer, who reports for duty April 1, will patrol Tuesday through Saturday evenings. Although ASU has used security officers to patrol on foot in the past, no officer on the staff is currently designated as a foot patrolman. Director of Public Safety and Securi­ ty, Roy Tugman said, many univer­ sities are returning to the concept of foot patrol to increase security in the heart of campus, which is traditional­ ly the weakest point in campus securi­ ty because of a lack of vehicle access. "We've needed more positions for a long time," Tugman said. "It was only this year that security was ap­ propriated funds for a new officer." In reference to the proposed time limits on ticket payments and appeals Scott Post felt the time limit will cause Security to have to re-evaluate the en­ tire appeal system. Post also felt if 40 percent of ap­ peals are successful they will have to have a committee meet every three weeks to appeal tickets not just at the end of the semester. He felt one solu­ tion to the parking problem might be to eliminate freshmen having cars on campus. Vice-President Elect Frank "Moose" Callis questioned why the money from tickets has not been used in "pro-active rather than in a reac­ tive way." the assault on campus reported February 23 did not influence the decision to add a new security officer, Tugman said. "Any assault makes you more patrol-conscious. Ironically, we were already in the process (of hiring a new officer) when the last assault occurred on campus," he said. Tugman added the ASU campus is essentially as secure as any in the state, but there will always be pro­ blems when there are students out at night. Tugman hopes the high visibili­ ty of an evening foot patrol will ease security concerns of students on cam­ pus late at night. The name of the security officer hired will be released on April 1. Appalachian Photo by Allison Layton Frank "Moose" Callis upset over parking proposals. Last year students paid a total ot $300,000 in parking violations, the previous year, $250,000 and the year before $150,000. "The best thing about this is that it's given students a chance to have real input and has given them something to rally behind. The last issue that had this much input was beer in Boone," Moose said. Rules Committee Chair Gram Spear felt the parking proposals were vague. "This proposal had no beef to it. Greeks plan fun and games Greek week begins April 11 By SHELLEY KAEHR Appalachian Editor Greek Week at ASU will be held on April 11-17, For several years, ASU greeks have set aside time during the spring semester to participate in numerous activities. "I think Greek Week at ASU serves as an opportunity for greeks to get together and celebrate their common bonds," Assistant Director of Stu­ dent Development Dino Di Bernardi said. "Ifeel it's a good time t0 get together and promote inner fraternity and sorority relations." Sigma Kappa Betsy Harrison . Some of the activities include an All (Week Sing, Lip Sync Contest, Tug O' ar> Keg Toss, Pizza Eating Obstacle urse and Belly Flop Contest, oe Lip Sync is really entertainKappa Alpha member Jeff • a Behmer said. Several new activities have been created this year. "One thing we're doing different this year is having a party at H'Appy's instead of our traditional picnic," IFC President Neil Linnell said. "This will take emphasis away from alcohol and put emphasis on having fun." "On Sunday April 10, right before Greek Week, we're having an infor­ mation day at the Boone Mall with different members of sororities and fraternities to try and increase com­ munity awareness of the greek system at ASU," Linnell added. The entire week involves competi­ tion among Greeks which some students feel defeats the purpose of the program. "I personally think it's stupid and creates a lot of pointless competition," Delta Zeta member Cary Anne Wolf said. "People are overly concerned about winning." Others feel the program should be expanded to incorporate educational activities. "I think the challenge would be to I'W expand Greek Week beyond the fun and games for members," Di Bernar­ di said. For greeks, Greek Week is a time for unification of the system. "I feel it's a good time to get together and promote inner fraternity and sorority relations," Sigma Kappa member Betsy Harrison said. Many greeks are looking forward to simply having a good time. "It gives us a chance to have some out of the ordinary fun," Delta Zeta member Leslie Radz said. The program has been highly suc­ cessful in the past, and no major pro­ blems have developed. "As long as I've been here we've never had any problems," Linnell said. "We've made explicit rules for conduct when we're using campus facilities such as IG Greer and the Stadium to prevent damage." Many fund raising projects will be included in Greek Week, and some money may be donated to charity. "We're discussing the possibility of donating our excess funds to a local philanthropy," Linnell said. * /.A m Security hires new foot patrol S-*m: ' Before we (Senate) approve any money we want to see what's going on. What expansions are they talking about," Spear said. Student Affairs Committee Chair Bobby Justice believes students have a right to park on campus. "As residents on campus we have a right to have access to our residence halls and park at our own front doors. If this proposal goes through it will be an extreme injustice to students," Justice said. An SGA committee comprised of 15 students will investigate the pro­ posals and formulate alternate pro­ posals to be presented before the Board of Trustees before they vote on June 1. "Security has not taken into con­ sideration all the elements. There are alternatives and we are trying to find them," Justice said. "We would like to see a balance of rights (Between students and Security,)" Justice said. LAP expands tutorial services By TREY BARRINEAU and mathematics courses.

Each year between 60 and 100 million animals suffer through many types of abuse in our nation's hospitals, universities, governmental laboratories and private institutions. Cases of abuse include products such as oven cleaner and liquid paper being dripped into rabbit's eyes which are held open with clips while they are fully conscious. to be shown in IG Greer Due to the clips the rabbits cannot blink and are unfortunate enough not to have tear ducts to wash the pro­ ducts away. The bulk of animal experimenta­ tion is fairly frequent. Another test includes the spines of cats being crushed by weights dropped from various heights to simulate battle casualties. Some people may argue that these tests are beneficial to mankind. Also cancer research has repeatedly been shown to be ineffective with animals. Director of Biostatics at Roswell Park Memorial Institute Dr. Irwin Bross said there is no animal model system that comes anywhere close to being a model for the human cancer process. Billions of dollars are being spent annually on this type of research. A book written by Peter Singer call­ ed Animal Liberation discusses the concept of speciesism. This is another form of abuse to animals by humans. Speciesism is when humans tend to feel superior to animals and have free reign over them in all circumstances. This, in effect, displays a prejudice against animals, Singer said. Anyone interested in the issue of cruel treatment to animals is en­ couraged to attend The Animal's Film. There will also be a contact table for those who want to join PETA. College refuses to print gay magazine I REFK yfi.' be h*pril U ?Vlnf 1,1 ^ ..

Iowa's Human Rights Committee says the university's Printing Services violated school policy which forbids discrimination against homosexuals, by refusing to print "Common Lives/Lesbian Lives," a national les­ bian culture magazine published by the UI Lesbian Alliance. Despite the committee's recommendation to print the magazine, Interim President Richard Remington does not agree that the university discriminated against the Lesbian Alliance, and plans to uphold the printing ban until a further in­ vestigation is completed. Remington's decision to ignore the committee's finding is unprecedented, said committee member and Iowa law professor Robert Clinton. "The committee has expressed con­ cern about the central administra­ tion's willingness to be their own judge in its own case," he said. "After having had our case looked at and voted on by the committee, the administration blatantly ignored and actually refused to listen to the find­ ings of the committee, a universitymandated committee established to protect human rights," magazine staff member Tracy Moore said. The Human Rights Committee ask­ ed UI to adopt a new policy governing printing at the school, publicly apologize for the incident and com­ pensate the Lesbian Alliance for costs incurred by the decision not to publish the magazine. The Lesbian Alliance has sued UI for revenues lost by the ban. Remington says UI will not reim­ burse the group, or acknowledge any error, until the litigation is resolved. �THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDA Y, MARCH 24, 1988 Heidi Van Dine Facing DWI Charges Editor's Note: Heidi Van Dine is ASU's Student Legal Intern. I have just finished reading Paula Childer's column in Tuesday's edition of The Appalachian, and 1 couldn't be more in agreement with her. Drinking and driving is immature, inconsiderate, and what's more, it's illegal. Drinking alcohol and then stepping into an automobile is a deadly com­ bination. Police officers who arrest persons for driving while impaired are doing them a favor. I don't mean for this to be an editorial or a sermon, but before you get into that car after hav­ ing knocked back a few, remember you are not only jeopardizing your life, but also the lives of everyone else on the road (and on the sidewalk!) If you should be arrested for DWI, you will receive a pink copy of the citation stating the charge being brought against you. You will then be taken to either the police department or the sheriff's department, where you may be subject to a breathalizer test. This is not a mandatory test, but if you refuse it, then your license will immediately be revoked by the magistrate for 10 days, and then revoked by the Division of Motor Vehicles for 12 months, and you will still be facing a DWI charge. You may request that your lawyer be present during the breathalizer test, but your lawyer must arrive within 30 minutes of the request. These and other stipulations are outlined in a document in which each statement must be acknowledged by you in writing as having been read and understood by you. Then you must sign the document. If you voluntarily submit to the breathalizer and register less than .10 percentage blood-alcohol level, you may still be taken to court on a charge of DWI if the arresting officer requests it. He may proffer aggravating circumstances, such as hazardous driving, to support his request for prosecution. You then may or may not be released to go home again depending on the circumstances. If you register a . 10 or more on the test, you will automatically lose your driver's license for 10 days. The law enforcement agency may decide to hold you in a detention facility until your blood-alcohol level decreases substantially. You are then facing a court charge of DWI. According to N.C. General Statute 20-179, if you are found guilty of DWI, and it is your first offense, your license will be mandatorily revoked for one year, and you might receive a fine of up to $500. You may also receive a sentence of up to six months in jail, or up to 72 hours of communi­ ty service (and yes, there is a fee for community service.) If you are found guilty of DWI and it is your second offense, your license will be revoked for up to four years. You will receive a mandatory jail sentence from seven days to 12 months. On top of that, you will receive a $1,000 fine. So not only is drinking and driving stupid, but the repercussions of such are costly. However, all cases are individual, and their circumstances differ. If you find yourself charged with DWI, or any other legal matter, contact the ASU Student Legal Services at 262-6255, or come by the office between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday-Friday. use. For college ring through your Jostens sales representative or the bookstore. With your ring you will receivea certificateentitling you to a Kodak K400 camera (retail value approximately $59). Mail it in. Maur camera will be sent to you upon receipt of the certificate. •This is North Carolina Law as I understand it as of this date.

JOSTENS Greeks blasted in sex scandals (CPS)—One fraternity was banished from the University of Rochester for allegedly holding a group sex party, while the University of Pennsylvania suspended one of its houses for hiring strippers to perform at a party. Rochester administrators banned the Theta Delta Chi house for 10 years in the wake of a February party in which eight students reportedly had sex with one, apparently consenting, woman. The 19-year-old woman, whose name was not released, attends a col­ lege in Ohio. Rochester ad­ ministrators said they may contact the woman's college about further disciplinary action. The incident at the University of Pennsylvania threatened to escalate into a conflict between campus Jewish and black groups. T»w «y On March 4, Penn suspended allwhite, predominantly Jewish Zeta Beta Tau for 1 Zi years for holding a September party at which 2 hired strippers, both black, performed. Some audience members shouted racial epithets as they danced and engaged in "sexually explicit acts." ZBT's members issued a public apology and offered to make a dona­ tion to the campus women's center, but Penn President Sheldon Hackney suspended the house anyway, adding that "behavior that dehumanizes any individual or group will not be tolerated." At the same time, Penn's campus paper received a death threat against Conrad Tillard, head of the Organiza­ tion of Black Consciousness at the school. Tillard quickly blamed the anonymous threat on the radical Jewish Defense League, which denied it sent the note, and related it to a February 29 rally at which he called for ZBT's ouster. Black and Jewish students argued publicly in 1986 when Tillard's previous group brought Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, whose anti-Zionist preachings often spill over into criticisms of Jewish theology, to speak at campus. Rabbi Howard Alperg of Penn's Jewish Campus Activities Board con­ demned Tillard for promoting, without evidence, the ZBT affair as an echo of .he 1986 tensions. "The Jewish community does not support what happened at ZBT," ad­ ded Daniel Gamulka of the Jewish Student Council. "They find it offensive, just as anyone would." bttr Wt know y.TT — '" 1° muc*le fn,hrt««r wh>eh o«l>*r!Shwood ***"?

Hearing a different drum beat Last month I saw Pink Floyd: The Wall. It was absolutely brilliant; the imagery was powerful and the music was good (and I'm not even a fan of that genre.) Granted, 1 didn't know what the heck was going on until near the end, because the movie asked a lot of the watcher, but I enjoyed it immensely. Interestingly enough, a great deal of the time it made me feel angry. I sat and watched the scenes of children being forced to conform to an expected mode of behavior with teeth clenched and hands curled into fists. We've all felt it; if you don't behave as is expected, you'll be punished. The film would have you believe that teachers are the problem, which is a ludicrous idea if you ask me. Granted that most of the teachers I had in public schools were somewhat incompetent. I only exaggerate a little when I say that the last thing they taught me was how to read; I taught myself most of the rest. The teachers I had over the years almost never met my needs as a student. I usually either snored through a class due to its ease or flunked out entirely. Despite all that, teachers aren't the problem. We are—you and me. Teachers push us to conform no more than Mom and Dad do, or the people who run the enter­ tainment business. I'd guess that 80 percent of the pressure comes from our peers. If you don't dress as expected, people just won't like you as much. You won't get many dates and you won't have many friends. I've always had a bit of trouble understanding people's obsession with sports. For this, I had a good chance of being attacked when I walked down the halls in junior high while a bunch of smelly morons who got their full growth a few years early were lionized. I like to think for myself and assert my individuality. For this I have been punished all my life. For being different, I expect to he Punished all my life.

If you want to learn more about the women in the Past, present, and future, take a Women's Studies course. Next fall the program will have a sociology course, a literature course, a feminist theory and methodology course, and a new course set up in three separate series on political leaders, great thinkers, and great scientist. Women's Studies, in particular, tries to deal with half of humankind," Director of Women's Studies Maggie McFadden said. "We have not been educated about women even in the earliest grades. This rein­ forces sexist education that you come to college with. We need to overcome that socialization and ultimately include material about all human society in history, English, science, etc." The courses in Women Studies are varied as well as interesting. Next fall, the program will have a sociology course, a literature course, a feminist theory and methodology course, and a new course set up in three separate series on political leaders, great thinkers, and great scientists. Students can receive a minor in Women's Studies as well as a major. 'I think a women's minor is a good thing to do for various kinds of career goals. It would be great for teaching; for example, here at ASU 55-56 per­ cent of the students are females. It would be good for counseling and any kind of personnel work in order to get some study about pyschological aspects of women, sex roles, and that' sort of thing. It could really be a big benefit to any career," McFadden said. "Most of ASU's degree programs do not require any minor, if you take a minor you can have it included on your transcript. It gives you another emphasis, another specialization that a prospective employer will look at and be impressed with. Women's Studies is really interesting because it is interdisciplinary and might be very helpful," she added. Requirements for a minor in women's studies are two courses: women's history and an interdisciplinary women's course. The history is varied, not confined to but including American Women, Women in the Work Force, and Women's Lives on a Worldly Basis. The inter­ disciplinary course could be an introduction into Women's Studies touching such topics as gender roles, equality, and other informative ideals. After you take the first six hours you can pick any other courses of interest to complete the nine hours in the women's minor. Women's courses are not only for women; men, if you have a girlfriend or just wish to know more about the liberated lady, take a course. It counts toward the general requirements. "I think the Women's Studies is generally misunderstood. We don't hate men. We just want to know more about women's history and literature. Appalachian Photo by Jimmy Guignord Dr. Maggie McFadden with one of the many Women's Studies library resources. I decided that the men in my life should know about the issues women deal with and have to confront and understand them," Heidi Schneider, a Women's Studies minor said. To know more than half the facts, give Women's Studies a shot. It may surprise you. The Women's department will be having an essay contest open to the campus. The topic can be anything concerning women. Prizes will be $50—1st, $25—2nd, and $10—3rd. The deadline will be after Easter Break. Successful endeavors Escorts provide security through kindness By ANGIE CHESTNUT Appalachian Staff Writer Gabrielangel of mercy to students in need By EDDIE ZEGARRA Appalachian Staff Writer Compassionate. Kind hearted. Understanding. Attributes that are sometimes hard to find in people to­ day. But at ASU there's a man who has all of these qualities. He is Finan­ cial Aid Director, Steve Gabriel. Respected for both his character and his athletic abilities. Gabriel is a modest man who has achieved a great deal. He was inducted into the ASU "In a world like ours to­ day, it's unusual to find a person like Steve Gabriel." Assistant Financial Aid Director Lynn Sessions Athletic Hall of Fame last September and while he doesn't like to boast about it, he's appreciative of the honor. It's one he especially cherishes since he and his brother, Shirley, are the only brothers ever to receive the honor. A two-sport letterman at ASU, Gabriel was an All-American in wrestling with a 40-4 record and quarterback of the football team. He lead ASU to the conference cham­ pionship in football his junior year. After graduating from ASU, he started the wrestling program at the old Appalachian High School, guiding the team to 10 undefeated seasons and setting a high school record for consecutive wins. This was a great accomplishment for a team which started out dyeing underwear for uniforms. When Appalachian became Watauga High School in 1964, Gabriel left for Hickory Elementary school where he started the physical educa­ tion department and football, basket­ ball, and baseball programs. Loyalty to ASU brought him back to his alma mater the next year. This is when Gabriel really began to excel. In 1965 he was given the responbility of beginning the Financial Aid program at ASU. Starting with only a secretary, he guided the growth of the office to 11 full-time and 12 student employees. During this time he also was the coach of the ASU wrestling team, leading the Mountaineers to a 98-22 record and the reputation as the King Pins of the South. After nine years, Gabriel stepped down as coach to concentrate on his main in­ terest—helping students finance their education. "If we don't do our job to our best capabilities, we might be cheating some students out of an education," Gabriel said. "We're here to help as many students as possible." Helping students is what he has done. This year Gabriel was honored as one of the founders of the North Carolina Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators. As usual he took it all lightly and modest­ ly"In a world like ours today, it's unusual to find a person like Steve Gabriel," said Assistant Financial Aid Director Lynn Sessions. "He is the most kind hearted person I've known, supportive and understanding to everyone." Compassionate, loyal, and friendly were words other employees used to describe him. But above all, they respect him. Students who have seen him for financial help are also quick to say he cares. This will be Steve Gabriel's last year at ASU—he is retiring after 33 years. He plans on playing racquetball, gardening, and possibly living on the coast of South Carolina to spend more time with his wife. Gabriel has enjoyed every year at ASU and has seen the school grow tremendously. "Being at ASU has been a reward­ ing experience but it's time to bring it to a halt," he said. "I'm glad I had the opportunity to help so many students." If you haven't had the chance to meet Steve Gabriel you might want to stop by the lobby of Lovill Hall on Tuesday's and Thursday's from 10:00-12:00. Besides being Financial Aid Director, he teaches a recrea­ tional dance class along with Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs Bar­ bara Daye. "I started in high school and do it just for fun now," Gabriel said. Hopefully, he will continue to have all the fun and enjoyment he has given to ASU. For he will be a special person everyone will miss. Mountaineer Escort was started in the spring of 1986 and since then their services have been well publicized. Most students know about the escort service, but the service is not greatly utilized. Director of Mountaineer Escort Charles Ledbetter reports they only receive about seven or eight calls a night. "This isn't bad," Ledbetter said, "but we could do a lot better." When asked why more students did not use Mountaineer Escort, Ledbet­ ter said, "They think they are safe. ASU has the reputation, from RSA and the administration, of being a nice little town all snug and warm in the mountains." However, women have been attacked on ASU's cam­ pus, and by utilizing the Mountaineer Escort Service some of these incidents could be prevented. Recently, a flier explaining the escort service was mailed to every female on campus. "I don't know what else we can do," Ledbetter said. "If they read the Appalachian Photo by Jimmy Guignord Charles Ledbetter with volunteer Janice Fuquay tlier and don't use it, what else can we do?" Ledbetter stresses it is not easy to be an escort. All applicants must go through a rigorous screening process before being accepted. "We accept about 10 percent of those who apply," he said, "and if I could make it tougher on the guys, I would." You can take advantage of this ser­ vice by calling 262-2265. Special guests and lots of freebies 'Go to Healthjust for fun Susan Stamper said. "The agencies really enjoy being on campus."

If it sounds like a lot to see then you're right. "To be able to see all the booths and get information plan on spending an hour or an hour and a half taking it all in," Stamper said. For an enjoyable midday meal bring your food and "Yosef" to "Lunch and Learn" at noon in Our House. Topics will be fad dieting and effective ways to lose weight. "We started in November to give health workers time to plan. Most of the people who work booths have been to several health fairs," Stamper said. "Go to Health" is a super oppor­ tunity for students to ask questions and find out new facts. "You can find out more about yourself."

This summer ASU students have an opportunity to explore the excitement and adventure of the Appalchians in a group expedition, and receive credit for the trip. For 23 days (offered twice during the summer) ASU has coalesced with the National Audubon Society and Expedition Institute to offer students a chance to study in depth some of the last virgin forest on the East coast in the Great Smokey Mountain National Park area. Students will be spelunk­ Smokey Mountains credit ing in limestone caves in Tennessee, and conversing with native Cherokee Indians about culture, tradition, and daily life. According to Denis Simko, 1988 expedition leader, and recent graduate of the program, the main goals of the expedition are to get more comfortable with nature, get involved on a socio-natural interaction level, and gain some experience with natural issues with an emphasis on conserva­ tion. The expeditions, which are the first of their type to be offered at ASU, will begin in Charlotte on June 19 and July 17 respectively, and last for 23 days. During the trip, the participants will camp out every night, prepare their own meals, and study the boun­ tiful wildlife, diverse ecosystems and unique culture of the Southern Ap­ palachian area.

Actually, I'm not much of an evening person, either. I hit an early-afternoon peak around 1 p.m., and I generally go downhill from there. I need a little music to sort of jumpstart my system in the mornings, but 1 usually stick to tapes and try to avoid morning shows on the radio. I'm not sure what it is about mornings that make radio sta­ tions think people want to hear lots of stupid, loud garbage and dumb comments. I think that Rock 92 back home wins the award for the most annoying morning radio crew. They play stupid songs, and do Ronald Reagan imitations, and have this really loud laugh track. But anyway, this was Friday morning, and since I had been out late the night before (study­ ing at the library, of course), 1 desperately needed something to get me going, so I turned the radio on to keep me awake while I was at work, since I had to be there at the ungodly hour of 8 a.m. The radio was tuned to WASU, and I didn't mess with it. I'm not sure exactly when 1 started listening to it, rather than just hearing it, but I think it was during the segment of Kirk Staimy's show where he started explaining the words of the day. These words of the day were "neat," "ouch," and "irregardless." Kirk went on to say something about "irregardless" not being a real word, and about how people always went around say "irregardless of (whatever)." I don't remember exactly what he said, (my brain was still fuzzy because it was so early in the morning) but I remember it was pretty funny. So I listened to the rest of the show, and it was pretty funny, too. The next thing that struck me as amusing was an editorial on the problems caused by people abandoning cars in New York. People just park them, and never come back for them. He said it cost some outrageous amount of money for the city of New York to haul off these cars. So the city put out some pamphlet about how to abandon your car proper­ ly, or something like that. 1 guess if you're really interested in the facts, you'll have to talk to Kirk. Other highlights of the Kirk Staimy show switching over to the Roger Dodger show was Kirk introducing himself as Kirk the Jerk and Roger Dodger doing a lovely version of a James Taylor song because they couldn't find the real one. Roger sang that he was "Goin' to Carolina" in his mind, because he couldn't afford the tuition at Duke. I also listened to the all-request Roger Dodger show. I didn't really care for most of the music he was playing, but I'm probably musically incompatible with 97 percent of this school, and that's my fault, so 1 really can't com­ plain. He did play REM's "It's the End of the World as We Know It (and I Feel Fine)," which I like a lot, in fact, it's probably my favorite REM song. On the weird side, he treated the listeners to something called (I guess) "I Love My Truck" which he claimed was Kirk's favorite song. It was funny, but I hope that he was kidding about Kirk liking it so much. What 1 thought was the neatest, though was the German version of "Major Tom" that was played right as I was doing my German homework. I'd also like to add that 1 have requested "Don't Run Wild" by the Del Fuegos about a million times, and have yet to hear it, but I guess everything can't be perfect all the time. The point of all this is tnat these guys put on a pretty decent morning show, and brightened my day on a day that really need­ ed brightening. Three movies, a student, and opinions By PALMER C.

Anyway, here's the Well, er, the credits were trendy! plot: An ancient magical artifact Oh, heck, I want to really slam this, Appalachian Staff Writer University Theatre A farce of warmth and comedy Comedy, confusion and mischief set the stage for Appalachian State University Theatre's spring produc­ tion, She Stoops to Conquer, a brilliant 18th century farce written by Oliver Goldsmith. The play will be presented March 23-28 at 8 p.m. in the Chapell Wilson Auditorium. She Stoops to Conquer is directed by Susan S. Cole, Director of the University Theatre. Dr. Cole selected this play "because it is a warm play that contains comic situations that au­ diences of today can appreciate. Also, the characters are warm, amusing and likable, which is not always the case in comedies of this era." Frank C. Mohler, set and lighting designer for the University Theatre, has created a spectacular stage for the production, complete with a three-set turntable and folding walls. He has also framed the stage with procenium doors, an element that is typical of this period. Martha A. Marking, who has joined the University Theatre faculty this year as costume and make-up design­ er, has created an authentic 18th cen­ tury look for the show. The colorful and elaborate costumes are exact replicas of the period. Ms. Marking has attended to every detail, including walking canes and wigs for the men and corsets and panniers for the women. She Stoops to Conquer or Mistakes of the Night was met by audiences with roaring laughter on its debut in 1773. The play has been played fre­ quently ever since. The play has been successful throughout the years because of its timeless humor and wide appeal. The comedy presents the unexpected, the absurd, and the folly of human nature. The greatest laughter comes not from humorous lines but from the comic situations, this, this.. .thing!!!!! Here's the (heh heh)plot: Jimmy (River Phoenix) has just graduated high school in the mid sixties and his libido gets him into some trouble (what a scamp). Well, I guess that pretty much sums it up. It should have an appeal for those of you who still want to be in high school; where you get excited over the latest Tiger Beat, giggle about that tacky hickey on whatshername's neck, pretend you're Phoebe Cates from Fast Times..." while munching on carrots in the B.I., dance around in the shower to formula music from an overplayed soundtrack, and many others that turn my stomach. Much like how this movie did. Hairspray—Divine's swan song happens to be John Waters' finest film to date. I knew, from past experiences, to expect the unexpected from a John Waters film. Hairspray didn't let me down. What I expected was a gross, very funny, warped little movie. What I got was a great film. A truly great film! How could it lose with a cast that includes not only Divine, in duo roles, but also Debbie Harry (from Blondie) and Sonny Bono (from Sonny and Cher) as husband and wife and a cameo by Rick Ocasik (from The Cars) and Pia Zadora (from...er... well.. .er.. .somewhere real swell, I'm sure) as a couple of beatniks. It is obvious that the two million dollars John got to make this movie didn't go into casting. The film itself is a tribute to the early 60's "hair hoppers;" the "in" girls who wear their hair in standard "bee-hives" and "Jackie Ken­ nedy's." The "action" surrounds a local Baltimore T.V. studio that puts on a dance show each day spotlighting all the cool, young, hair hoppers in the area. These kids become local heroes to their teen peers watching at home. Hairspray has great acting, great music, super writing, great dancing, excellent directing and naturally a splash of John Waters' "sick humor" which has made him a cult god to those demented enough to catch the jokes.

She Stoops to Conquer presents and She Stoops to Conquer has several. The story is of young people in and out of love. Marlow and Hastings, two young gentlemen from London, are travling through the countryside on their way to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Hardcastle, protrayed by J. Keith Smith and Denise Story. Marlow's father has arranged a marriage between his son and Hardcastle's daughter, Kate. During their travel, Marlow and Hastings, played by Eduardo Alen and Merritt Palmer Bailey, are directed to the Hardcastle house by Hurdcastle's stepson, Tony. However, the mischievous Tony, played by Todd James, convinces the young travelers that the house is ac­ tually an inn and that Hardcastle is the pretentious innkeeper. Under this delusion, Marlow treats Hardcastle as though he were a pushy innkeeper. Tickets for She Stoops To Conquer are now available at the University Theatre Box Office. Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-12 p.m. and 1 p.m.-5 p.m. The fun is compounded when Marlow, who is terribly shy with women of reputation and virtue, mistakes Kate for a barmaid. Kate, played by Danielle Drapeau, taking full advantage of the situation, is able to see Marlow behave with a boldness he would have never used had he known her true identity. In the mean­ time, Hastings, who has actually come with Marlow in order to win favor with the family, is making plans to elope with Kate's cousin Con­ stance, portrayed by Karen Duckett. His plans are somewhat deterred by Mrs. Hardcastle, who is determined to see Constance married to Tony. Needless to say, this 18th century situation comedy promises fun for all. Tickets for She Stoops to Conquer are now available at the University Theatre Box Office Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-12 p.m. and 1 p.m.-5 p.m..

Double Damned : A showcase of all the changes By f.RIC BOLASH Appalachian Staff Writer The Damned have a new double album that is a historical compilation entitled "The Light At The End Of The Tunnel." The album seems to be a fairly accurate account of the band's trek from their boyishly defiant punk years of the late '70s to their sophisticated Alternative sound of present. For a person without much knowledge of The Damned, the liner notes to this compilation are more confusing than an exerpt from a World Civilizations textbook by a man named Roy Willis. There have been seven different line-ups for The Damned, with spin-offs galore. The Damned have, in some fashion or another, had contact with such names as Motorhead bassist/vocalist, Lemmy, Keith Levine of PiL, Kevin Blacklock of The Misfits, and Jon Moss of Culture Club, (unintentional­ ly, these four bands are somewhat indicative of the range of Damned sounds through the years.) Two of the four original Damned members, Rat Scabies (drum) and Dave Vanian (vocals) remain at present, and they are accompanied by Roman Jugg (guitars) and Bryan Merrick (bass), frtrm-r|„ nt ts» both formerly of The Missing Men Enough history. "The Light At The End Of The Tunnel" is an album comprised of a diverse range of sounds. The best illustration of this diversity occurs within the first two songs on the album. "I Feel Alright" is a cover of The Stooges from 1977. With scratchy guitars, heavy bass lines, and double-time drums, this one is a Ramones-ish punk tune that really rocks. From that harsh extreme, "Anything" takes on an almost pop sound. Extended organ chords behind hopping guitars and drums, and moaning "Whoaoo's" and "Whooooo's" switch the mood quickly. A delightful seven-note guitar melody is the foundation that makes this song cohere into a rather catchy title track for their 1986 album release under the same title. An appropriately lonely but beautiful guitar intro begins and recurs throughout the 60's love song, "Alone Again Or." Rich strumming acoustic guitar then kicks in for a driving but eloquent sound that mixes with solitarily dreamy vocals. With heavy English accent, Dave Vanian reminds another party of all of the times they left the victim lonely and forgotten; the melancholy feeling of hr>th MCA recording artists the Dammed this song could easily bring tears to one who has been neglected by or felt alienated from a lover. In short, one could call this the album's most powerful cut. The years of the early eighties were years of sound transition for The Damned. They slowly evolved from the raw punk sound of the late seven­ ties into the distinguished alternative sound of today. The transition have released a double album The period, though, produced songs that mixed these two sounds; this was a sort of melodic but raw sound "Disco Man" ,s a hilarious mockery of the horrendous period of culture in which mens' eyes twinkled from the shine of tacky disco balls as they "S J" k Se! °f "gr°oviness." my hand Disco Man are i0UdJ^' 3 °ne n'8ht stand?

When I returned home weeks ago for break, I found two " yself swamped by the growth of a cjty already too big for its own good. 1 i and many others could probably „o into several hour-long spiels about ®hat we dislike about Boone. At the ame time, though, there are some things about this town that I have used to and that 1 miss when I feturn to Charlotte. Boone is small. Somewhere in that smallness, there thrives a feeling of protection. I think •f i ever got lost in Boone (could that |,e possible?), it would only take me about twenty minutes at the most to locate a major interstate or highway. When I first came to town, I scoffed heartily at the absolute tinyness of the mall. It wasn't until (his past break that I began to ap­ preciate it. Over break, I went to South Park, a mall I had frequented sjnce I was young. A couple of years ago, South Park began to undergo some major reconstruction. Now South Park resembles some sort of architectural acid trip, n;w wave "incidentally, more fatalities occur each spring break due to South Park shiny shopping squares than any other potential mall hazard. And here I was, darting along in a pair of saddle oxfords that had worn-down, red, crepe soles—the slickest surface in footwear known to man with the exception of a pair of brand-spanking aew leather soled penny loafers. For future enjoyment, remember this handly theorem: speedy loafers + wet grass = instant thrills (when 1 was younger, my friends at my church and I used to push girls across dewcovered grass on Sunday mornings to watch them fall, scream and soil their dresses. Actually, we didn't—I'm lying. Sounds like fun anyway, eh?) I had come to South Park with my friend Clark who was in search of some pink light bulbs for an art com­ position he was working on. We had split up and I had made tracks for Belk's, a popular department store which was now under the faint impression that it was Bloomingdale's, complete with fake marble floors, mirrored walls (how very kinky), ex-Cosmopolitan cover model saleswomen and cheesy sculptures where I once dutifully bought Converse All-Star high tops. The young men's department featured even more sculptures and an impressive array of video screens churning out sickening, sugar-coated Top 40 ilk and commercials perfectly stylized after the former (earlier that 0^e WiU had ^ ^ By AQUALUNG to w ^ talking like a °neKSaleSpers0n who looked and LTT ^tWee" Mickey Rourke 11 had started Cted 016 t0 a sales rack wW hf>7 Cd "° 0rder as far as s?ze\l , .

We walked along the alien surroundings discussing how underdressed we felt and the artistical merits of the placement of the steel manequins around us. Clark pondered over what would happen once the whole eighties, stylized, newwavey video look fad was over. I simply missed the small single floor plain old Boone Belk's that I couldn't lose a person in even if I wanted to. Another interesting thing about liv­ ing in Boone is that there always seems to be a patrol car lurking about whenever you want one (or don't). Upon departure from Charlotte, Will (my ride back) and 1 stopped at a record store where I had planned to buy a record. 1 purchased a nifty Chuck Berry re-issue job that con­ sisted of two early Berry albums joined together at the spine. It was designed in a way that it featured two covers—one on the front and one on the back. A potential buyer had no idea what songs were included on either of the platters unless he bought the album. This element of surprise intrigued me so much that I suc­ cumbed to the mercy of Chess Record's art department and shelled out the obligatory $7.98 for killing the cat. Will looked at me oddly while fumbling in his pockets. "Did I lock the keys in the car?" he asked. I looked back at him even more oddly and said, "Well, 1 locked the door." There we were, Will maneuverinig a bent coathanger up and down the wedge between his car door and body while I tried to get his sister on the phone. It turned out that we wouldn't be able to get a spare key for another hour and we were anxious to hit the road. Will suggested that I call the police. He said he had once locked his keys in his car in Boone and an officer had quickly come over and opened his door with a jimmy stick. See BREAKING Page 8 Forty-five minutes of my life is gone. And for what? Some mindless band called She­ bang had the gall to put out one of those black, frisbee-looking things with a small whole about the size of a .22 in the middle. I was coerced into listening to it. Actually, I've played frisbee on turntables late at night (early morn­ ing) after hours of expanding my mind that sounded better than this disc. The best song on the album is a cover of Rod Stewart's "Guess I'll Always Love You." The only thing about Shebang's album (creatively titled Shebang) worth thinking about is the fact somewhere in this world, this is somebody's favorite album. Pro­ bably. Okay, maybe. I must admit Shebang's music has potential to be good dance music. All the songs sound the same in their own special way courtesy of the thumping bass and pounding drums. Neither bassist or drummer had to learn very much to keep rhythm for this group. Just one rhythm track and that was it. Hell, they probably only laid down one track in the studio and used it for all the songs. The guitarist, Peter Stroud, has a lot of potential. He needs to get with another band or something needs to be changed because he belongs to another puzzle in the jigsaw puzzle of bands. The guitar simply doesn't suit the music. Heavy metal could handle him better through his Steve Vaiesque sound instead of the Night Ranger sound of Shebang. Also, if he'd quit fiddling with so many devices and concentrate on playing, he would be a lot better. The guitar, although the highlight of the band, turns me off because it doesn't fit the music. On a good note. "Woman on the Moon" has some killer guitar. Stroud finally uses his talent on this fast pac­ ed dance tune despite repetitive lyrics. Lead vocalist Brent Daniel writes mindless seventh grade love son­ net/songs also. This phenomenon turns me completely off. I'm embarassed to publish some of the stuff I do now but if I were him, I'd become the unknown lead singer.

With 29 songs, this review only covers a small portion of the material on "The Light At The End Of The Tunnel." An avid Damned fan might find this compilation to be a refreshing mix of the band's outstanding accomplishments over the years, but for a wishy-washy, undecided Damned fan, this is definitely a gamble (especially if fond­ ness is based upon recent material.) Not having heard enough Damned to fully recall their sound, the first listen­ ing of this album came somewhat slowly. Further indulgence, however, was cause for an increase in volume and enjoyment. The earlier punkish tracks come on with an excitable feel­ ing, and the later material provides for aimless, thought-filled dancing. The intriguing liner notes and in­ teresting inclusions such as a rushed punk cover of The Beatles' song, "Help," make this album an especial­ ly desirable item for veteran fans or those wishing to know more. The Damned had released a "Best Of" album in November of 1980. After this album, they released "Strawberries," and then were given a contract with MCA Records.

Written by Dale Wasserman, with music by Mitch Leigh and lyrics by Joe Darion, the musical is based on the life and works of Miguel Cervantes. Man of La Mancha has enjoyed one of the longest active lives of any in recent memory, with countless productions having already been mounted, and many more sure to follow. Tuesday's production in Farthing Auditorium was no real champ as professional productions go, but the obvious greatness of the work itself and the staying power it seems to possess are more than enough to guarantee it near-capacity crowds wherever it plays. Tuesday's production in Farthing Auditorium was no real champ as profes­ sional productions go, but the obvious greatness of the work itself and the staying power it seems to possess are more than enough to guarantee it near-capacity crowds wherever it plays. Such was the case in Boone. Droves turned out to see Daedalus Produc­ tions' version, and I doubt many of them came out totally disappointed. The music is very likable, with such songs as "To Each His Dulcinea," "Man of La Mancha" and the stand­ ard of the night, the powerful "The Impossible Dream" highlighting a good libretto and great overall music. Man of La Mancha begins with the poet and early novelist Don Miguel de Cervantes being cast into prison with his manservant and a trunkful of props and personal possessions among them the manuscript of Don Quixote. Other convicts in the prison attempt to rob Cervantes of his possessions, but not before they give him a "trial." Cervantes, by way of his defense, spins out a story about a Spanish gentleman and madman who tilts at windmills and sees grace in scullery-maids. And thus is begun the story of the Man of La Mancha. However, the presentation could have been much improved. First of all, the tech/sound people had obviously never heard of a sound check. Believe me, Fm aware of the problems involved in setting up a system of microphones for even a relatively minor-scale production such as this one, but especially at the beginning, the balance of the or­ chestra's amplified and non-amplified instruments was atrocious, and throughout the musical, the voices continued to be inadequately amplified, with unprofessional attempts at overcompensa­ tion—resulting in feedback prevalent throughout the production. Even when the sound system was working properly, the diction of the singers left a bit to be desired. The words were difficult to understand both during solo and group singing, and even during speech. This seems to lead to another prob­ lem with the production, specifically with the players. The whole show was done without any real energy, any spark. All the singers lost power on very high, sustained notes. They seemed to be performing the songs at times mechanically, without the sup­ port that is necessary to achieve a good, sustained sound. In other words, they were going through the motions, largely without real concern for their performances. This occurred only at times, but it was sad to see in a professional production. In particular, John Wyle, the man who played Cervantes and his alter ego Don Quixote, gave a performance By AQUALUNG Music tastes are as varied as the Campbell's Soup shelf. How you got those tastes varies just as much. You might have been turned on to the music you like by the radio, friends, a vision, whatever. Can you remember the very first music influence in your life? I've had the same kind of in­ fluences as anybody and everybody, but I also remember the very first in­ fluence I had for my musical preference. Let's start with the first albums. The Who's Who Are You and Fleet­ wood Mac's Rumors. Still a couple of my favorites. They were under the Christmas tree when I was about 12. I was a proud, breathing aparatus. Friends would come over and I would spin those albums. Very few of my cronies had really paid any atten­ tion to that stuff. Man, I did. I'd know what song was coming next and could sing most of the lyrics off the DON QUIXOTE: The Man of La Mancha, (John Wyle) prepares to tackle demons, dragons and a windmill or two in a scene from the legendary'musical smash Man of La Mancha. The 1988 national tour of this Tony Award-winning hit is presented by Daedalus Productions of New York. greatly lacking in charisma. Cervantes, according to the plot, has to turn determined, hardened criminals to his way of thinking. That type of slap-in-the-face charisma was sorely lacking in Wyle's Cervantes. Wyle did play a decent Quixote. There were good parts to Man of La Mancha: some of the singing was very good, the costumes were as good as could be expected, and the tavern whore and scullery-maid, Aldonza, was played with some spirit by Melanie Dimitri. Overall, though, despite points of excellence, the pro­ duction left a lot to be desired. Soaps have more than just bubbles By C.W. PRATHER Appalachian Staff Writer At the start of the semester some­ one wrote that she didn't like soap operas and couldn't understand their appeal. It took me some time to brood until I figured out why I en­ joyed these "daytime dramas" so much. Aside from the basic reasons for liking soaps there are a couple of others that might not be as obvious. One is that these programs sometime lapse into "reality" and the other (that sometimes, but not always, take place with that "reality" part) is that soaps can make a statement or do something that has a special meaning to the viewer. The basic reasons for liking soap operas are easy to understand. What other form of entertainment allows you to follow a regular cast of characters each and evey weekday without a repeat (except during writer strikes and Iran/Contra hearings)? Granted, some story lines do tend to repeat themselves as do soap's in­ fatuation with trends (the latest is AIDS). Soaps also resort, sometimes, to grandstand plot manipulations, but the events that take place in these fic­ tional towns are, for the most part, events that happen in everyday life to everyday people. However, in real life, all of these events do not happen to the same persons. The most basic of reasons, for me, to follow the go­ ings on in Llanview or Pine Valley is that many of the characters have become a sort of extended family. It is comforting to know that I'm not alone. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me if someone in a highly visable position in the college community (like maybe a new director for a college radio sta­ tion) had a picture of his favorite Music influences from Mom and Dad Soap Star among pictures of his real family!!! Yeah, you're right. It is a little far fetched. If a soap is well written and acted, then the hour spent watching can be quite enjoyable. The shows can become even outstanding and exciting if these programs do something many don't even think possible with soaps; actually be educational. "All My Children" has always been a leader in bringing real, social issues to the forefront of the show's plot. In the past, AMC has dealt with teen pregnancy, cocaine, abuse, plus interracial relationships. They were the first to show the horror of The Vietnam Conflict in the families at home, not to mention it was the first T.V. show (primetime included) to have a major character have an abor­ tion. And now, the same show that albums. Heavenly sounds... Next couple of albums I received were Ace Frehley's solo and Paul Stanley's solo to the other respected members of KISS.

P -''There was much more filming on location before World War I than 0st people realize. Film companies re much more mobile than people lend to think," Williamson said. The ' ain reason for that mobility was that most films were 15 to 20 minutes in , n2th and were shot with one camera and no sound. Appalachian turns were made as 1904. The first in North arly as Carolina was filmed in 1916. I'll Come Back To You, a mountain romance, was filmed in Buncombe County and was one of several films made that year. The film Contrary Sfary was shot near Asheville, "where towering cliffs and abysmal caves pro­ vide ample scenic attractions," said a newspaper report of that time. The typical themes of mountain movies during that period were feuding and moonshining. The prelude to today's westerns, they were "the typical shoot-em-ups," William­ son said. "When filming companies began moving to California, those movies became westerns." Ned Finley was a familiar face in movies of the early 1900s. Finley worked for Vitagraph Company, one of the top five film companies of the period. He produced and starred in a film, Mid-Kentucky Hills, then came to Bat Cave in 1914 to direct and star in several movies about the region. In August of that year, Finley mysteriously disappeared, then reap­ peared in New York City several weeks later with no recollection of - es . Continued from Page 8 also dealing with dying. A case in point was when Dr. Angela (Angie to her friends) Hubbard went to the hospital to get the results of Cindy's blood test. When she returned home Cindy was staring at the Christmas tree. Cindy could tell that the tests came back positive. She had the disease that had killed her husband; Cindy had AIDS. During the rest of this scene both Cindy and Angie went through every emotion that is in the book. It was an outstanding moment in T.V. history and it only lasted five minutes. The part that was really fascinating was that NO words were spoken. For that instant "All My Children" had made the cross over to "reality". It was a moment that makes people think. However, you don't need a great scene to make peo­ ple think. Sometimes the right button can be pushed by writers attempting to do the best with a sometimes ludicrous scene. One story that brought AMC alot of attention was the "Acquaintence Rape" story line. The unusual part was that both parties, Ross and Natalie, were major characters on the show. As a result we got a very objec­ tive look at both sides of the coin as we followed them around. Ross even­ tually got convicted and actually was sentenced to a state prison for five years. Another twist to the story was that Ross's adopted daughter, Julie, had seen the actual rape. The trauma pushed her over the edge and into the arms of a sleazeball, Creed, who was bent on revenge (aren't they all)? Eventually, Creed was caught and thrown into prison where the action switched as the story centered on the tension between Creed and Ross. Now, it gets a little warped. Creed escaped and captured Julie. Ross escaped, saved Julie, while nasty 'ol Creed escaped again. I do realize how silly this all sounds, but it wasn't that bad. In fact, in the middle of all of this was a great moment. Julie told her dad that if he wanted to, he could leave while she covered for him when the police arrived. Ross smiled and told his daughter that be­ ing on the run would be a worst prison. "The hardest part," he told Julie, "is to live with yourself know­ ing who you are and what you are capable of." He could never run away from that. For me, that line hit like a ton of bricks. Joseph Conrad wrote a story about "the horror" that lives in all of us. Francis Copolla adapted that story for a movie set in Vietnam. Even U2 lifted the title of the orginal story for a line in a song. After all of these, it took one small moment from a soap to punctuate, to me, what The Heart of Darkness really means; it's having to live in the shadow of the knowledge of who you are and what you can do. Nothing could be scarier. All of that from a soap opera. Imagine that. U.S. Department ol Health & Human Services AMERICAN • CANCER SOCIETY® a.in 4.Oil p.m.-9:30 p.m. 1. Chicken with Vegetable 2.

If you saw the boxing match between Tony Tubbs and the heavyweight champion, Mike Tyson, you know it didn't take two rounds of action to realize that the match was in fact a mismatch. Tony Tubbs didn't stand a chance. Tony Tubbs. How appropriate. He was the jellybelly of the cen­ tury, a real tub of blubber. God, he didn't even look like an athlete! And at 238 !4 pounds, he wasn't just an overweight oppo­ nent, he was an unworthy oppo­ nent. What kind of competitor is a guy who is to be paid an addi­ tional $50,000 if he can cut his weight to 230 pounds and then doesn't? Wake up, Tony. You're fighting Mike Tyson, the heavyweight champion, remember? Is shedding a few pounds and trying to be in top condition too much to ask? I don't think so. I think honor needs to be spelled out and defin­ ed for "Mr. Number-OneContender-in-the-World." You should have just taken a dive, Tubbs. You would have saved yourself a lot of pain. This fight could have been good if some effort and initiative had been taken by Tubbs. Let's face it. He had the height advan­ tage, the reach advantage, and a plan of strategy to attack Tyson's body. All of those advantages sound wonderful, but if an oppo­ nent doesn't stay in condition and train for competition he won't have the ability to make the most of those advantages. To make matters worse, Tubbs lied. He told the press that he had reached his goal weight of 230 pounds on Saturday, but when he weighed in on Sunday, he tipped the scales at a "tubby" 238 V*. It would take a hell of a lot of Ruffles and Mr. Goodbar's to add over eight pounds, Tony. I think this guy needs to re­ evaluate his desire to box. He just doesn't have the fire or the "eye of the tiger." Step aside, Mr. Tubbs. Enter Mike Tyson. This 21-year-old whose alcoholic father died before he was 10 is a titan, a gladiator. He is ready to step into the ring without all of the hoop-la of Ali and get the same devastating results— knockouts, quick knockouts. This guy wants to fight. And win. He's subtle in public, in­ telligent and straightforward in interviews, and agile and quick in the ring. Tyson simply refuses to lose. His assurance is determina­ tion, faith in his own ability, and superior physical condition. And surely Tyson answered (without words, of course) the questions of how his new bride would affect his boxing. I'd say marriage goes well with him, wouldn't you? May those rumors die in peace. In addition, Tyson looks for real competition. He is not just in the sport for the big bucks. I think he realized if he wins and stays on top money isn't going to be a problem anyway. Maybe I do have one thing to look forward to in Tyson's near boxing future. Michael Spinks. He and Tyson have a date to compete early this summer. Maybe Spinks will be a little more of a challenge. I don't know though. Tyson has established a new wave of box­ ing. His style is hard-hitting and quick, to the point. He doesn't fool around. He's hungry. But PLEASE, Mr. Spinks. Give him a fight. Who knows what might happen if someone took him more than five or six rounds. Come on, surprise me! SPORTS NCAA officials to crackdown on fans (CPS)— Tossing a dead chicken, or even a live one, on the court during a college basketball game could cost the home team two points. Hoping to control what it sees as in­ creasingly unruly fans at basketball games across the country, the Na­ tional Collegiate Athletic Association announced that it was empowering referees to get tough with spectators. Its reinterpretation of existing rules lets referees award two free throws and possession of the ball if their op­ ponent's fans deliberately delay a game by throwing debris on the court. In the past, only one foul shot was awarded. "We want it called consistently," Dr. Edward Steitz of the NCAA's basketball rules committee said. "This is the result of a continued increase of fans throwing objects like toilet paper, ice cubes, dead fish and chickens on the court," he added. If the crowd doesn't stop, referees can assess a technical foul on the home team coach. "In the past, some players and coaches even encouraged fan rowdiness," Steitz said. He said no single incident led to the rule change, but it was announced shortly after the fans at the University of Missouri at Columbia provoked Iowa State University player Jeff Grayer during a January game at Col­ umbia. Missouri's infamous student rooting section, known as the Antlers, teased Grayer so fiercely he jumped into the stands to silence them. 1988 Men's Tennis Team allegedly threatened Antler Mike Harvey for making cracks about his mother. "All I did was hold up a sign that said 'Your Momma is a Cow,' " Harvey said. After Missouri beat ISU 119-93, ISU Coach Johnny Orr filed a com­ plaint about the Antlers with the Missouri athletic department. The cheering group known for, among other pranks, greeting the an­ nouncements of visiting teams' players' names by shouting "smells like a bus" in unison. Athletic department officials later told Antlers' representatives to be nicer. At the next home game, the Antlers showed up dressed as Ghandi, Pope John Paul II, Abe Lincoln, Santa Claus and other sweet characters. They gave visiting coach Tom Miller of the University of Colorado a box of Valentine's candy, shouted "good try" when Colorado players missed shots and when Missouri took a commanding 21-4 lead, yelled "sorry about the score." The NCAA rule appears to be working and Steitz contends that even coaches are trying to keep their fans in line. In late January when Duke played Chapel Hill in the Dean Dome, UNC coach Dean Smith scolded fans for waving their hands when Duke's Dan­ ny Ferry attempted a free throw. Ironically, the Duke fans have been renowned nationwide for their rowdiness and antics in the stands. 1988 MEN'S TENNIS TEAM: Head Coach Bob Light's squad is off to an 8-7 and will host Presbyterian College this Friday at 2:15 p.m. The team defeated Asheville by the score of 6-3 on Sun­ day and edged Livingstone College Tuesday here at ASU with the score 5-4. The team traveled to Hilton Head, S.C. over Spring Break where they competed in five matches, winning three and losing Coach Light is pleased with the contests thetearr played thus far and feels that their record is a § indicator of how competitive the matches have b "The team has been playing well and trying h That's really important, especially since we've some tough teams," he said. Mountaineers sweep Carson-Newman at home By PAUL L. CARROLL Assistant Sports Editor Following a weekend sweep of Southern Conference North Division foe East Tennessee State, the Ap­ palachian State baseball team took a double-header from Carson-Newman on Tuesday. By defeating the Eagles 3-2 and 12-5, the Mountaineers upped their season mark to 14-3 overall and 3-1 in the conference. The first game played at Lackey Field was dominated by good defense and excellent pitching. Appalachian jumped out to a first-inning, one-run lead only to see Carson-Newman score one in the second and one in the third. Senior pitcher Stacey Schneider set­ tled down after the third inning and held the Eagles at bay for the re­ mainder of the game. Behind timely hitting from freshman Scott Waugh and senior Tommy Green, the Moun­ taineers put two runs across the plate in the fourth to take a lead that held up over the last three innings. Left-fielder Waugh finished the game with two hits and three trips to the plate scoring one run. Green, the Mountaineers' first baseman, con­ tributed one hit in three at bats scor­ ing one run and knocking one. The only extra base hit in the game belonged to ASU shortstop Gary Chandler who roped a double. The victory improved Schneider's season record to 4-1. The 6'1" senior from Canandaigua, N.Y. is sporting an ERA of 4.70 while striking out 28 hitters in 30.2 innings pitched. The second half of the double header saw the Mountaineer offense explode to lash out 17 hits and plate 12 runs. Behind timely hitting from freshman Scott Waugh and senior Tommy Green, the Mountaineers put two runs across the plate in the fourth to take the lead that held up over the last three innings. Carson-Newman again jumped out to an early lead, touching ASU starter Rick Tuttle for two runs in the first. Jim Morris' men then put their lumber to work, posting two runs in the second inning, three in the third and four in the fourth. The Appalachian offense was led by third baseman Brad Riley, Darron Healey, and catcher Mark Macchia. Riley, a sophomore from Concord, N.C., had four hits in four trips to the plate. He also scored three runs and had one RBI. Healey smacked out three in four plate appearances, scoring three runs and garnering two RBI's. The senior also launched his fourth home run of the season. Macchia had a perfect three for three day with four RBI's. The sophomore from Hudson, N.C. also roped two doubles in the contest.

Warren Posey is Lackey Field is renovated named All-American By SABRINA SELLS Appalachian Sports Editor As the 1988 ASU baseball season is underway, fans will notice some changes in the appearance of Lackey Baseball Field. In the off-season several improvements and renova­ tions have been made and more are in the construction stages. The improvements, financed By AUBREY HOOVER Appalachian Staff Writer Appalachian State University Men's Track Coach Bob Pollock had planned to give All-American Warren Posey this weekend off, however, those plans changed. Due to other teammates' mjuries Posey not only had to compete in his specialties, the long jump and " * triple jump, but he also chose to run a leg in both the 4x100 and 4x200 relays. In the relays, Posey teamed with Darryl Russell, Frank Allen, and Keith Collins and the team finished sixth in both events. The event was part of the Georgia Relays held in Athens, Ga, over the weekend. Pollock had left the deci­ sion to compete entirely up to Posey. 'He should have had the weekend off, but he really wanted to go out there and help the team in whatever way possible he could. That's just one example of the type of person Warren is," Pollock said. For his achievement and extra — effort at the Georgia Relays, Warren Posey has been named The Appalachian's Athlete of the Week. Posey, a junior, is an industrial arts major at ASU. Besides aiding in the relays, Posey also had very respectable showings in his field events, despite very strong competition. He placed second in the t i l j m with a l a of 51 f e V* rpe u p ep et inch and finished sixth in long jump with a distance of 23 feet 2 inches. Posey showed his versatility and natural athletic ability with his show­ ing in the relays. "He had one day to work on the exchanges involved in the relays and through the business affairs office, in­ clude new fencing and the renovation of the infield. In addition, new dugouts with restrooms and several storage rooms have been completed. In the construction stages is a new press box that should be completed by the summer. The press box was to be completed by the home opener on March 15, but due to weather and other delays, it is still to be c structed. The press box will be a two-st< 12' by 22' facility with a press E upstairs and a small concession st on the lower level.

Athlete of the Week Warren Posey he did a very good job, considering the circumstances. Overall, Warren had a very respectable showing in a meet that had some of the top athletes in the country," Pollock said. Posey, who just recently finished the indoor season, became only the fourth ASU Track athlete to earn AllAmerican status. Like his perform­ ance on the track, Posey is also an ex­ cellent performer in the classroom. He also works with children in the Boone area whenever possible. "Warren is a tremendous person. He is going to be a successful person whatever he chooses to do. He is very involved in the community, often working with kids in the Boone area. Warren has just been a joy to work with and he is the kind of athlete that makes my job alot easier," Pollock said. Pollock had nothing but praise for Posey's tremendous work ethic and See POSEY Page I] /\ppaiacnian rnoto *Y 1 Lackey Baseball field after recent renovations.

BROW N, Editorial Production Manager TERESA CHALK. Advertising Production Manager It takes dedication to make groups their very best Dedicated members are necessary to the functions of any organiza­ tion. All too often, organizations survive through the hard work of a few members. What causes individuals to be apathetic towards their extracurricular activities? People may feel that their role in an organization is small and unimportant. Contributions from each member are important to the quality of the overall product. Producing a quality product or working in an outstanding organization is very rewarding. People should take pride in their work and be proud of their accomplishments. Involvement in extracurricular activities is crucial to finding jobs after college. Experience which can be gained through involvement gives students practical working experience for jobs. The purpose of education is to teach skills which may be utilized in a career. Literature classes, for example, teach students how to analyze situations and communicate ideas. The best way to put these skills to work is through participation in clubs and organizations. The leadership positions available to students at ASU are varied and plentiful. By assuming a leadership position, college graduates show potential employers their dedication and ability to stick with a job. No employer wants to hire an individual who is inconsistent and flighty. People are usually hired on the assumption that they will remain with the company for a lengthy period of time. Finding students who are willing to commit themselves to an organization at ASU is often very difficult. Some individuals feel that the activities conflict with their academics, and may take on too much at first. It is important, though to remember not to assume too many respon­ sibilities when first entering an organization. It is much better to do a small job well than to take a large job and never follow through with completion. Projects do not simply disappear when they are not completed, but they actually become a greater burden to the person who must even­ tually carry them out. There is one group on campus that is extremely dedicated to its cause—Mountaineer Escort. Escorts are all volunteers who dedicate free time in the evenings to escorting people safely to their destinations. According to Director of Mountaineer Escort, Charles Ledbetter, staffing has never been a problem for the organization. In the entire two years of the program's existence escorts have always been faithful in attendance. This type of enthusiasm is outstanding. It would be wonderful if all campus organizations experienced similar situations. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Students who pledge themselves to any organization need to fulfill their commitment. Vandalism shows disrespect As an art major, I spend much of my time at Wey Hall; in order to get to Wey Hall, 1 walk by Greely Myatt's birdhouse sculpture. Every day, practically. I get to see snow-covered birdhouses, wet birdhouses, and sunlit birdhouses. Unfortunately, 1 all too often get to see missing or damaged birdhouses. Every week, it seems, someone has decided to knock over or steal a piece of this sculpture. Oh, sure, the other sculptures have their own anti-art vandals to contend with, but it seems that Mr. Myatt's work has had much more than its share. Ad­ mittedly, we could attribute some of this unwelcome attention to the construction of the sculpture: lots of thin poles in rows, and no-permanent ground placement; however, temptation is no excuse for action. I hpliptto fVt of itonrlnli'rm in J1 1 believe that vandalism is simply an outwardI display of an inner lack of resnert for the vandalized object, lack thp vanHalivsH nhipft respect and vandalizing works of art is about as low and disrespectful as you can get. Sort of like kicking pup­ pies, or knocking down an elderly lady. It's ultimate­ ly uncool. During his visit here (a visit partly undertaken'to repair some of the damage done by vandals), Mr. Myatt was quoted as saying, "People who vandalize art don't really understand it." He also said with any outdoor exhibit, contending with damages was just something you had to "accept." Well, it may hap- Paula Childers can't say it.

Science can't justify abuse of animals, ever By NAOMI SP1TZER Appalachian Staff Writer Dinners have always been a pro­ blem for me. When I was very young, my mother would spend what seemed like hours each night trying to convince me to eat the meal she had prepared. She just could not understand why the piece of meat facing me was so unap­ pealing. At least I ate the chicken she fixed once a week—I always loved my mother's chicken dinners and looked forward to this special meal. Then one day in first grade, we watched a film on farm animals.

The newly proposed changes in traffic and parking regulations discussed at the SGA meeting last week also were of top discussion at the Board of Trustees meeting Friday morning. Vice-Chancellor for Business Af­ fairs Dr. Ned Trivette addressed the Board on the six proposed changes which included extending geographic boundaries, restricting areas, pay­ ment of fines, parking for university and state-owned vehicles, and offcampus storage of vehicles and fees. Parking (on campus) is in a com­ plete disaray and our present system is not working... so these proposals are to establish control on campus," Trivette said. The proposed changes are just one of the many issues that are being ad­ dressed in a long range physical plan for the campus. This long range physical planning is concerned with meeting the demand for parking while enhancing the beauty of the campus. In addition, another plan is the development of a pedestrian campus through the restoring and expanding of greenways and walkways. In the past a growing demand for parking at ASU has been accommodated through surface parking on university property. This in turn has had a negative impact on the visual quality of the campus as well as affecting the safety and convenience for pedestrians. "Parking is an ongoing concern for all university campuses and the students are affected more than any other group," Trivette added. The Board of Trustees should have a firm proposal by June and will have adopted the proposal by July. Effec­ tive for Fall 1988, students will be pay­ ing a uniform fee of $20 annually. The revenue from this will go towards supporting an expanded public transportation system such as the 'Appalcart'. Students not using their cars and wishing to store them will pay an an­ nual fee of $20 when provisions for off-campus locations are developed. Currently there are approximately 4,000 students using the campus for some form of parking. Next semester they will pay an annual registration fee of $50 in addition to the public transportation fee. Faculty and staff will also pay the same annual fee. The remaining proposals will be ef­ fective in combating parking pro­ blems just as a fee increase will assist the use of more public transportation. A perimeter boundary established to keep commuting students from parking on campus will be extended to restrict a larger number of vehic'es from campus. Also certain streets close to campus will be closed or restricted to moving vehicular traffic during classes. Ac­ cess to campus would be controlled by traffic booths. In addition, so Freshmen students will still be allowed to park on cam­ pus, a plan for off-campus storage will be developed over a period of time. Vehicles utilizing off-campus storage will not have parking permits for on campus use. Permanent park­ ing places will be affected by making more ample space for maintenance, security and other service vehicles which are often parked on sidewalks. Finally student fine violations may be reduced by limiting campus access. To make students more willing to pay fines, a discount payment of fines within a short period of time will be initiated and failure to pay fines within a certain period of time will result in the loss of parking priveleges. "A new approach for ASU in terms of solving parking problem is a park­ ing deck," Trivette said. "It will be a multi-level parking deck and hold up to about 400 cars."

OASIS' services include a 24-hour crisis line, shelter for abused women and their children; individual crisis counseling, and companionship through medical and legal processes. "We help educate the community," Community Educator for OASIS Holly Rutledge, said. OASIS provides community education about domestic violence, rape, and divorce. Most of the questions the office receives are about divorce and legal separation. OASIS has two types of volunteers called advocates and companions. Advocates are notified as soon as the victim arrives at the sheriff's office or the emergency room. Com­ panions go to the shelter to be with the victim, baybsit, and in some cases give rides to those victims going to job interviews. See OASIS Page 2 I considered is for a private owner tc buy the house and live in it. "In order for this to happen we would have to make sure that it it properly restored," Bake added. Rumors have circulated that the house is in a deteriorating condition but Bake and Bare Moving Company say the house is in stable condition and is not going to fall apart if moved. "It will cost $8,000 to move it, $1,000 to move the wires out of the way, and about $4,000 more to build a new foundation for it to sit on," Bake said. "We have $70,000 right now but it will take almost twice that just to fix the house up. We really cannot afford to buy any property, we need some one to donate it," he added. The Town of Boone and the cam pus community alike are concerned with preserving this historical land­ mark. ASU student and local citizen Mike Sollecito who has lived in Boone for 12 years feels people are losing sight of the historical value and that property owners need to ask themselves if their land is worth that much money compared to the historical value. �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDA Y, MARCH 22, 1988 Scholars visit ASU Universities attempt control of testing Three well-known scholars in education will visit Appalachian State University's College of Education this spring as pan of a faculty develop­ ment program. Drs. Phillip Schlecty, David Berliner and Ursula Casanova will lead a series of four presentations and seminars with faculty and students on teacher preparation, cur­ riculum assessment and processes for change. Their visit is funded by a $24,500 grant from the UNC General Ad­ ministration to implement a distinguished visiting scholars pro­ gram. The grant is the result of the UNC Board of Governors Task Force on the Preparation of Teachers, adopted in 1987 by the General Assembly, which recommended that schools in UNC system bring visiting scholars to their campuses to strengthen teacher education pro­ grams. The Board of Govenors authorized $250,000 to be divided among system universities. Univer­ sities that received grants are required to include private institutions in their programs. Appalachian will work with Lenoir-Rhyne College, Mars Hill College and Wake Forest University. The scholars will visit each of those schools as well, spending from one to several days at each campus. Schlecty, a professor of educational administration at the University of Louisville, will visit Appalachian March 23-25 and will discuss Models for Teacher Preparation. He received his B.S., M.A. and Ph.D. from Ohio State University, and has been involv­ ed in education as a teacher or in ad­ ministrative positions since 1959. Schlecty published a paper last year on "Schools for the 21st Century: The Conditions for Invention," and continues to make that one of his pro­ minent themes. Schools after the year 2000 should operate on a new system, he says, where principals will lead rather than manage, teachers will be executives and students will be workers. "Managers do things right and leaders do the right thing," Schlecty said, and principals should focus on the "right thing." Berliner and Casanova, will visit Appalachian April 24 - May 4. Berliner, a professor of educational psychology at the University of Arizona, will discuss the expert teacher. Casanova, an assistant pro­ fessor in the University of Arizona's College of Education and a research associate for the university's Bureau of Applied Research in Anthropolgy, will talk about cultural diversity. Casanova received her B.A. from Hunter College, her M.S. from the State University of New York and her Ph. D. from Arizona State Universi­ ty. Berliner received his B.A. from UCLA, his M.A. from Los Angeles State College and his Ph.D. from Stanford University. Appalachian's College of Educa­ tion formed a visiting scholars com­ mittee last fall to work on the project. The legislature has agreed to fund the program again next year, and the committee has already begun plan­ ning for next year's visiting scholars. For more information about the program contact Dr. Alice Naylor at 262-2182. Boone tries to curb crime By TOM McBRAYER Appalachian Staff Writer The Boone Police Department in cooperation with local newspapers and radio stations have implemented a local Crime Stoppers program. "Our interest in the program started last Fall when the department started exploring new areas of crime prevention," Boone Sergeant Jeff Rucker, head of the local Crime Stop­ pers Program said. The police department features a different crime each week. A 24-hour number is available for persons who wish to call aitd give any information they may have concerning crime. "Many people are afraid to call," Rucker said. "They don't want their name to be involved." When a person calls the Crime Stoppers number, all they have to report is information about the crime. An officer will then assign the caller a code number. The caller is instructed to call back on the third Thursday of the month to find out the status of the case. Once the case is solved, the person is eligible to receive a cash reward. That person's name will not be reveal­ ed and he will not have to testify in court. "Cash awards are given up to $1,000 depending on the crime that is solved," Rucker said. Boone Police have no influence on the award at all. Oasis Continued from Page 1 "We would like to have as many volunteers as possible," Rutledge said. "Right before training we have a shortage." "Right now we have about 17 volunteers," Rutledge added. The center also serves Alleghany, Ashe, and Avery counties. It was started in July 1979 by concerned citizens and until then the closest shelter was in Caldwell county. OASIS has gained publicity by advertising on Cablevision. They also send letters to civic groups, churches and ASU residence halls. They are hoping to advertise more, but are on a limited budget. The crisis line receives approx­ imately 36 calls a month, although these calls come sporadically. A week may go by without any calls. "In general as far as rape goes, nationally,... 10 percent are reported," Rutledge said. The majority ot all reported rapes are committed by someone the victim knows. For further information about OASIS call 264-1532. Their offices are located in the basement of the First Baptist Church of Boone. They are not affiliated with the First Baptist Church. The hotline number for the shelter is 262-5035. During the day New River Mental Health answer calls, while at night trained volunteers answer the hotline. A 15 member board of directoR composed of citizens from the com­ munity determine the amount of the reward once a case is solved. A board member will then make ar­ rangements to meet the caller at a convenient place to give him or her their cash reward. Since the program began January 1, over $10,000 in stolen goods have been recovered. Also, $5,000 wcrth of drugs have been confiscated. "Most of the calls that come in to Crime Stoppers are drug related," Rucker said. The biggest crime solved so far by a call to Crime Stoppers was a $6,000 jewelry theft. The jewelry was later recovered as a result of the program. "Students are victimized more than anyone else," Rucker said. "Car stereo thefts and apartment break-ins especially," Rucker added. "I think students are apprehensive to report any information because they don't want their names involved," Rucker said. "They should not worry because we never know them by their name, only by their code number." Rucker said the program could use the help of more students and they are considering adding ASU students to the_Crime Stoppers board of direc- ..... • . (CPS)—At the same time a student headed for the University of South Carolina died of a cocaine overdose two more colleges decided to rein in their drug testing programs. Spirited opposition and the opinion of the school's legal counsel con­ vinced the University of New Mexico to drop plans to test its cheerleaders for drug use in mid-February. And University of Washington officials, faced with a lawsuit they didn't think they could win, said they would no longer require athletes to undergo mandatory drug-testing. But shortly after UW announced its decision, a Maryland high school athlete died after swallowing several chunks of crack. Rico Leroy Marshall, an 18-year-old football star, was a big fan of University of Maryland basketball player Len Bias. . ...... ourt drug testing suit mat has not yet been decided. The school opted not to wait for the decision to stop the testing. "The reasoning Judge (George) Mattson employed in his oral opin­ ion, in our judgment, is likely to prevail over time," said Morris. "It simply doesn't represent wise use of institutional resources to pursue the matter." Washington, Morris said, instead will test athletes only when there is "reasonable suspicion" the student is using illicit drugs. In the federal suit, UW cross coun­ try runner Betsy O'Halloran and the American Civil Liberties Union sued the school and the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), claim­ ing mandatory testing violated her constitutional rights to privacy and due process. "The way I look at it, it's a vic­ tory," O'Halloran said, "but I would rather have a ruling because, if they get dismissed from the case, what is there to keep them from instituting mandatory drug testing in the future?" "I think the UW has said 'we are going to abandon the most invalid part of our drug-testing program, and that's testing everyone without valid reason,' " O'Halloran's attorney David Tarshes said. UW's lawyers say the school's concession may lead the federal court to It was Bias's June, 1986, cocainerelated death that prompted dozens of colleges around the country to start testing athletes, cheerleaders and, in at least one case, marching band members for drug abuse. But some students objected, and a few courts have questioned whether schools have the right to force the students to take the tests. A Washington state court, for example, has ruled mandatory tests unconstitutional, said UW's vice president for student affairs Ernest Morris. UW is also a defendant in a federal IJW dismiss UW from the suit, but Morris is in tfc school', toimerMs to remain as a defendant. If Washington is dismissed from the case and the NCAA wins, it could be hit with NCAA penalties. University of New Mexico officials, however, used similar legal logic in deciding to drop plans to make UNM cheerleaders take drug tests. UNM cheerleaders got nonscholarship athlete status last year, which entitled them to receive medical treatment from athletic department trainers. The university's rules, however, require students who receive medical attention from trainers to undergo drug-testing. But the school's lawyers thought it was a bad idea. "I looked at it in the perspective of if it would be legally supported," said assistant counsel Barbara Mathis. "1 certainly didn't feel it was under the current drug-testing laws. UNM cheerleaders, unlike O'Halloran, could care less. "It's no big deal for us," said cheerleader Khristie Krayer. A proposal for mandatory drugtesting of University of Oregon athletes also would fail state and federal constitutionality tests, Oregon's attorney general warned in November. Attorney General Dave Frohmayer said mandatory drug testing without prior suspicion of drug use would Receive discounts with student ID Listed below are 25 area businesses where students may receive the indicated discounts by showing their ASU ID.

MILLER By MICKI SAn/, Appalachian Staff Writer Take pride in home away from home I was down at Tomlinson Park (otherwise known as the duck pond) the other day, and what I saw there raised a question in my mindHow would you feel about giv­ ing a nice gift to someone, something potentially very pretty, that could be enjoyed for a long time? Probably pretty good, right? Especially if you thought that person or persons would appreciate your gift and take care of it well. Now then consider this: You give the same nice gift to some­ one, or in this case, to a whole group of people, and they throw it on the ground and step on it. Or worse, they don't take care of it and allow it to be filled with refuse and to look like a miniature landfill. You probably wouldn't think too much of the people involved, and you would be stupid to give them anything else again. You might wonder what I saw down at the duck pond to make me think of these things. What I saw was trash. Not just1 the occa­ sional gum wrapper or beer can, which is bad enough, but lpts of trash. More than could have possibly blown in by itself. We're talking corn chip bags, lots of cans and bottles, and some unidentifiable garbage, too. The Duck Pond is, I believe at times, one of the prettiest parts of this campus. It is a place that townspeople bring their children in warm weather to feed the ducks, and with the new arbor and benches it is quite an enjoyable place to study, talk and eat, provided we take out our trash to the nearby trash can, which is about 10 or so steps away. When the park was renovated 'ate last year, I had the oppor­ tunity to speak to Rebecca Tomlinson about why she was giving the pond a face lift. She told me that she wanted to make sore 'hat ASU students would always have a nice place to come and study, talk or just think. Eventually, she wanted to see the area landscaped .with flowers and climbing wisteria to make a natural "roof" for the benches. . Unfortunately, Ms. Tomlinson ls not going to get to see her little Project fully completed. She died a tew months ago. I, for one, am glad to see that e is not around to see what has Jen done to the duck pond by s a few ASU students.

See HOME Page 6 Appalachian Staff Writer The "Women Artists" exhibit at he Catherine Smith Gallery closed last Friday with a slide show con­ ducted by one of the South's most well-known artists. Catherine Dunn, professor of art at the University of Montevallo, near Birmingham, and one of the four featured women artists at the Smith Gallery talked about her larger-thanlife size paintings. The next time you pass by Wey Hall take a look at Birdhouse Field. What is that, you say? It is a Greely Myatt sculpture. In a broader sense though, it is a man's thoughts ex­ pressed in an artistic way. Birdhouse Field represents life's imperfections in the image of harmony being shat­ tered. "I am interested in twisted realities—opposites, reversals of con­ cepts, appearances, and materials," he said. "They (the birdhouses) sug­ gest a very homey, peaceful feeling. In the midst of this comfortable ex­ istence, a bolt of lightning strikes one of the houses representing the disaster • or threat of uncontrolled or unfore­ seen catastrophes." Catastrophe did strike the Birdhouse Field but in the form of van­ dalism. Although Myatt complacently shrugged it off, it is unfortunate he had to come to ASU to touch up his work. "When you exhibit in a gallery with Dunn claims to be a true Southerner, although she was born in France. She spent a great deal of her early childhood in Europe where large-scale Renaissance type works of art are anything but unusual. When she began painting, it was not peculiar that she immediately drew life-size figures. "It's hard to keep the entire work together working with such large paintings," she said. Typical of the size of her paintings, "Together Forever" is six by nine feet. Dunn always knew she would be an artist, even if she didn't know she would work on such a large scale. Her mother was very artistically inclined and made sure her daughter had all the necessary supplies and sufficient encouragement. "I knew from my earliest memories I would be an artist. I was always doing things with my hands as a child," Dunn said. Dunn uses photographs as a start­ ing point for her large canvas pieces. Although she doesn't recommend this technique to beginning students, she finds photographs a convenient method of capturing an idea for a painting. Dunn believes the environment influences artists. Being raised by Southern parents, the majority of her works capture on canvas the disap­ pearing Southern culture. She picks contemporary people, especially close friends, and dresses them in an antique outfit from her personal col­ lection to depict a typical Southern moment. In one of her paintings, two debutantes dressed in jurs and large floppy hats sit in the back seat of an old Chevrolet busily gossipping and gesturing to one another. Another recurring theme in Dunn's collection is youth versus age, as in "Marguerite's Beauty Shop." An elderly woman and a young girl stand waiting outside on the street facing in opposite directions, neither wanting to see the past or the future. "All my paintings tell a story," Sculpture gets a face-lift guards you have no problems, but in a public place you have weather and people to contend with. You accept it. People who vandalise art don't really understand it," he said. While he was here he gave several lectures and through his slide shows explained how he became a sculptor. As he told about each work of art, the audience laughed at the often comical and whimsical ideas he incorporated into them. "I had 24 paper airplanes (literally in the air) flying North but one was flying South. I call that my self por­ trait," Myatt said. Myatt is now working on a sculpture called Franklin Furnace. Myatt hopes to astonish and delight the public with his whimsical touch and hidden meanings far into the future. A tip from Greely Myatt to all aspiring artists, "You can't sit around thinking about art, you have to act on it. You make the opportunities and more than anything, even talent, you will need persistence." Appalachian Photo by Tamoula Trivett Visiting artist Catherine Dunn Dunn said. If the subject matter and physical size of Dunn's work doesn't com­ mand attention, her use of vibrant color will. Her greens have been described as "greener than frozen broccoli," and "blues bluer than the barrel of a Smith and Wesson." Even in her darkest works, Dunn's highlighting and glazing techniques cause figures to literally pop out of the canvas. Ironically, as an undergraduate at Florida State University, she shied away from color, concentrating instead on graphite drawings. All but two of her works exhibited at the Smith Gallery were selfportraits. Like many other artists, she does this not for vanity's sake, but for practical reasons. "It's economical and convenient," she said. "When you get an idea, you don't have to pay someone to pose for you." Dunn was recently awarded a National Endowment for Individual Artists fellowship. This prestigious award not only supports her finan­ cially, but upgrades her regional reputation to national. Speaking for herself and her husband, Ted Metz, a sculptor and the new chairman of the University of Montevallo's art department, she said, "One of the reasons we chose to teach was to give us time to continue our craft." The university provides them both with comfortable studios on campus. Appalachian Photo by Kim Howell Creator of "Birdhouse Field" Greely Myatt Man of La Mancha Cheap travel with a great locale tangos to Farthing By MICHELE HOLLOWELL Appalachian Copy Editor By SUSAN MEDLIN Special to The Appalachian Appalachian State University will be the setting for one of Broadway's best-loved and longest-running shows in American theatre history. On March 22, Man of La Mancha will be performed at 8 p.m. at Far­ thing Auditorium as part of the 1988 Performing Arts & Forum Series. The musical, adapted from Cer­ vantes' classic novel, Don Quixote, is the story of a determined old man who believes he is a knight errant liv­ ing in the golden age of chivalry. His challenge is to vanquish evil, and court the earthy tavern wench, Aldonza. He is convinced she is a princess, and as his love for the girl grows, the audience sees Aldonza's life take a change for the better. On March 22, Man of La Mancha will be per­ formed at 8 p.m. at Farthing Auditorium. Tickets are $3 for students and $6 for non-studentsThroughout Man of La Mancha, popular musical selections mirror the on-stage action. The staccato casstanets, flourish of flutes, and piercing rush of brass create a robust score that colors the adventures of the knight. The tavern brawls, moonstruck reveries and chilling trials of the Spanish Inquisition are com­ bined on stage to form a medley of striking moods, as do the songs a accompany them. Have you ever wanted to go to New York City or Washington, D.C., but didn't think you could af­ ford a $200 hotel room? ASU students, faculty and staff can stay in a New York loft or a townhouse in D.C. for only $12 a night. Sound too good to be true? ASU leases a loft and house in these cities that students can use while visiting the Big Apple or the Capital. The New York Loft is located in lower Manhattan, and the Appalachian House is located three blocks from the capital. The hard-driving lament by Aldonza for the sake of her life, the soft blend of guitar and tenor voices called "little bird," and the exciting pulses that resound from the dance of a band of gypsies, all build to the climax of Man of La Mancha. When Don Quixote's passions and dreams bring him to shattering grief, the musical is crowned with the unforget­ table song, "The Impossible Dream." Man of La Mancha is primarily a product of the playwright, Dale Wassermand, whose extensive televi­ sion and film credits include The Power and the Glory, starring Laurence Olivier, and the Richard Burton & Elizabeth Taylor run of Cleopatra. Aside from Man of La Mancha, Wasserman is best known as the author of the stage version of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. The 1988 national tour of Man of La Mancha stars John Wyle. A 25-year veteran of professional theatre, television and cabaret, Wyle markes his third portrayal of Don Quixote with this tour of Man of La Mancha. He has also starred in such celebrated shows as Funny Girl, South Pacific, and The Sound of Music. Philip Giberson is the director for the 1988 Man of La Mancha. His numerous credits encompass the New York stage, premiere national tours of Side By Side By Sondheim and The Fantasticks, and acclaimed regional theatre mountings of I'm Getting My Act Together and Taking it on the Road, and Jaques Brel. Tickets are $3 for students and $6 for non-students and can be purchas­ ed at Farthing weekdays 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more information call 262-4046. ASU Loft Both houses rent beds, not entire rooms, and come with a fullyequipped kitchen, and two bathrooms. The houses are staffed by a Resident Director, who greets the guest when they arrive and help them become oriented with the area. The Resident Director is a committee ap­ pointed faculty member who manages the house for a semester. "It's a great opportunity for facul­ ty to take a semester off with pay to work on their own projects," Dr. Rennie Brantz said. Brantz is on the committee that selects the Directors, and has also taken groups of students to both facilities. The houses are a great opportunity for students too. Tom House has been to both the D.C. house and the Loft. "When you jirst walk up (to the Loft) you say, 'I'm gonna be staying in a warehouse?' " House said. "It gives you a feel for what it's really like to live in New York." House was especially impressed with the location of both houses. "Everything was within walking See LOCALE Page 5 �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDA Y, MARCH 22, 1988 Russkiy Yazyk Olya Vsekh By SHANNON SPARKS Appalachian Staff Writer The Russian Language class at ASU has taken a major step toward educating a few future college students about the basics of the Russian language. On Friday, March 4, Daniel Humphries, a senior student with a Russian minor and anthropology major, introduced Russian to Hardin Park Elementary School fifth and sixth graders. The anticipant young A.G. (academically gifted) students were introduced to an entirely dif­ ferent culture and language system. The students were learning about Russia in their Social Studies class. Humphries' presentation greatly enhanced their studies of the Soviet Union. Anne Stone, director of special education at several elementary schools in Watauga county, arranged for Humphries presentation. In plan­ ning for her students: "I try to do enrichment-type things for the children to provide as much for them as I can," Stone said. The students were already familiar with some aspects of Russian literature, such as the poet Pushkin and Gorbechev's book Perestroika. Humphries illustrated many basic rudiments of Russian that made students aware of the differences, rather than difficulties, of the language, and it's similarities to English. In explaining verb conjuga­ tion, Humphries pointed out that the word "conjugate" comes from a Latin word meaning "to yoke" or join together. In their infinitive form, verbs cannot be of use to all subjects unless they are changed or "harnessed," as one might harness a work-horse to make it do the proper job. He explained the three tenses of the language and the possibility of only having three because of the use of other words that specify more exact meanings. Humphries spoke Find 'puppy love' at the Humane Societ By ANDREA ANDERSON Assistant Et Cetera Editor about the alphabet, including the 10 vowels and how they change uepcnuing on their preceding consonants. The students were perceptive and asked many questions, such as how many different sounds exist for each consonant (only one pronunciation exists for each vowel.) The students also learned their names in Russian. The students already knew some sim­ ple greetings and words for "yes" and "no." If these students choose to learn the Russian language they will have a concrete background for their learning. The joy of sharing and exchanging knowledge was apparent as Humphries made his presentation. Humphries began his classroom study of Russian in the fall of '86. This past summer he attended an intensive foreign language study pro­ gram at Middlebury College in Vermont. In this prestigious program, the students must take a language pledge that they will speak in Russian at all times and will not speak in English at any time, in the classroom or on campus. Humphries chose to study Russian because, "I love the language; the way it sounds, the way it's structured, and the literature that has been pro­ duced within the confines of the language." Humphries aspires to teach Russian and hopes to earn a Liberal Arts Master's Degree from St. John's College in either Maryland or New Mexico. Humphries feels very strongly about the need for Russian and American cultures to com­ municate. "The key to understanding another culture is first understanding that culture's language because cognitive processes are shaped and colored by the boundaries of language," he said. J.W. Fulbright best conveys the importance of communication between cultures in saying, "Perhaps the greatest power of educational exchange is the power to convert nations into people and to translate ideologies into human aspirations." What could be more fun than a whole yard full of puppies and kit­ tens? How about a great adult dog that wants to be your very special four legged friend? Visit the Watauga County Humane Society Animal Shelter, and you're greeted by a rousing chorus of yips and deep-throated barks that seem to say, "pick me" or "take me home." If cats are your fancy, one just might rub you the right way. Last year, 302 animals at the Watauga County Shelter were euthanised (put to sleep). If vou talk with animal shelter volunteer Dee Dunaon, VicePresident of Belk Library, you'll catch some of her enthusiasm for the work she loves. The Humane Society is run on donations "and by people who work constantly," she said. "It's the hardest job in the world." A recent newsletter from the Socie­ ty for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals put the hardest part of the job this way: "The plain brown female, the short haired, mix-breed female, the old torn cat: they are the hardest to place. They are doomed to a life of never be­ ing wanted by anyone. These animals die in our arms knowing we loved them anyway." Last year, 302 animals at the Watauga County Shelter were euthanised (put to sleep). Dundon spoke on the heart-rending decision to destroy an animal. "We don't have any choice," she said. "We hold them and give them a shot." This has to be done because of animal overpopulation. She said 95 percent of all animal control prob­ lems would be solved if people would spay or neuter their pets to prevent unwanted litters. "That's the only answer," she said. One of the things the Humane Society does to help control the un­ wanted animal population is to offer reduced-cost spay and neuter clinics. Also, all animals adopted must be spayed or neutered. When someone adopts a pet, they sign an agreement stating they will have their dog or cat altered. Some people try to adopt particular breeds for breeding purposes, Dundon said. "Not from our shelter they're not," she said. If the society finds out that an animal has not been "fixed" •vithin the specified amount of time, they will come and pick up the animal and take it back to the shelter. She said every effort is made to find good homes for the animals. She noted that the shelter won't adopt animals out to people without making sure the animal is going to be well taken care of. "There is nothing we won't do to get them a good home," Dundon said. She told of hearing about people who have just lost a pet in death, and delivering a dog or cat to them and saying "Don't you just love her?" and the person says yes and the pet gets a good home. But the Humane Society Shelter needs your help. The shelter is in desperate need of money to buy sup­ plies and to renovate the current shelter. You might see some yellow plastic "doggy" banks at various locations around Boone. If people want to help they should "stick the quarter in there," Dundon said. Unfortunately, some of these banks have been stolen, but the Society still gets a supply of money from them. Another way students can help is to volunteer to help at the shelter. The Watauga County Shelter has a kind of "foster parent" program going on with its pets, where people can just take a "dog for a day" if they want. "Brush this dog, walk this dog," Dundon said. "(Do) anything that's going to give that dog some atten­ tion." Now let's talk about some local rock-n-roll.

Career Corner—A service of ASU Career Planning 8 Placement vonww CMA degree lands TV production job M. w By MARY K. MILLER Appalachian Staff Writer Ever wonder what goes on behind the scenes at a television station, or what it really takes to put together a newscast? Appalachian alumnus ('85) Debbie Mason can explain all the secrets of production because that's her job at WFMY-TV in Greensboro. Mason puts her communications and public relations degree to work in her new position as special projects producer and coordinator at Channel 2. Anyone who has taken Jack Holgate's broadcast production class knows (or should know) what a pro­ ducer does. But for those who haven't, a producer has overall con­ trol of what goes on tape or film and makes all final decisions about a pro­ duction. Production keeps Mason totally behind the scenes at WFMY. She has stepped in front of the camera on occasion, but has no ambitions of becoming an anchor. "Producing is a high unlike anything else," Mason said. Pro­ ducers get to tell the people on the air what to do. She currently produces two 6 p.m. newscasts a week and recently directed production of the "Super Tuesday" elections. She coordinated and supervised news crews in three different cities for the project. Her next major project is produc­ tion of a half-hour feature story on the Greater Greensboro Open (GGO) professional golf tournament. The GGO feature show will not air until March 29, but she began work on it the day after election coverage. Obviously, budgeting time and plan­ ning ahead are a large part of produc­ ing. Mason also supervises and coor­ dinates television coverage of Guilford and Forsyth County trials. Before proceedings begin, she obtains permission from the presiding judge for the television crew's presence in the courtroom. The judge has absolute power to order the crew from the courtroom, so during the trial she makes sure the crew obeys all rules of court to the letter. Mason got her initial "lucky break" at WFMY as a production coordinator. For a short time, she supervised 20 people and their pro­ duction equipment before she was promoted to production of special projects. She believes her leadership roles in the Delta Zeta sorority provided the basic skills for her job. It's not as important to belong to an organiza­ tion, as it is to become involved, Mason said. The planning and super­ vising experience she gained in the sorority helped her convince her employer that she could do the job even with minimal qualifications. "Dealing with people is 50 percent of any job. If you can do that well, you can do a good job at anything," she said. Production work is exciting. Mason said it's a lot of hard work, sometimes unusual hours, but the creative rewards of her job are tremendous. An added benefit of working at the television station is the feeling of family. Co-workers become more than associates because of the intense nature of the work. Although she feels her degree from Appalachian provided a solid founda­ tion for work in the "real world," she regrets not participating in an intern­ ship at a television station. If a stu­ dent knows that he or she wants to get into broadcasting as a career, Mason stressed the importance of "handson" experience. If it's nothing more than hanging around a station and observing, it's better than no exposure at all. She feels she would be farther along in her own career had / Advance — s 7 0 0 at the Door TICKETS AVAILABLE AT: For those interested in broad­ casting, above all else, Mason stressed flexibility. That includes not restrict­ ing employment opportunities to a particular city or station. Mason said, "People should be willing to move around a lot in TV Even though she's a 40-hour-a-week salaried employee, 9 to 5 hours are nonexistent in the industry. "Don't count on having normal sandwiches, soups, entrees, smoothies — tofy cheese cake!! — Mon-Thur 11:30-3:00pm Tues,Wed 4:30-7:30pm (If my lights are on-I'm open-call 1) " at the Black Diamond Inn, Seven Devils $600 she been involved in some type of internship. Dr. Carl Tyrie, Director of Broad­ casting at ASU, also stressed the value of practical experience. "The secret is to have a trade school approach—that is, get some hands-on experience through the cam­ pus radio station, part-time jobs, or internships," Tyrie said. Continuing education can be helpful in broadcasting, as in any pro­ fession, and several of Mason's co­ workers at WFMY have graduate degrees. But work experience is equal­ ly important.

The media bites the Big Apple By DONNA CLARK Special to The Appalachian Editor's Note: Donna Clark is a University Representative in the Admissions Office. The Big Apple. What a reputation it has from the media! Exciting city, land of endless temptations, rude and dangerous peo­ ple. My First trip to New York and I was prepared. What should I take? Bullet­ proof vest, "Wild Wild West" revolver and hidden pockets for money.. .1 had been warned. "There's crime everywhere, a siren a minute, knivings and thieves," I had heard. So here I was, headed to New York, bullet-proof vest on, Groucho Marx disguise, and an uncanny feeling that I was going to make statistical history. What did I Find? The media, my loyal and trusted conFidant, had lied to me. I arrived in New York and the cab driver was playing classical music and invited my friend and I to visit his home in the Islands. I got to the Paris/Milano Restaurant in Manhat­ tan and it was raining. The owner offered me free use of his umbrella to get to my friend's apartment. There were people opening doors for me. As I walked by a waiter he swirled me around to dance, and I rode to the top of the Empire State Building with a pack of happy-go-lucky New Yorkers. As for the sirens, in three days I heard only one ambulance and one Fire truck and I was staying a block and a half from the ominous Central Park. I did see the darker side of New York, the rush, the high costs and the homeless, but overall I came away feeling that the media, with its infamous power, had lied about a friend.

Thirty teams ran at the meet, many from the SEC, ACC, Big 10, and other major Division I con­ ferences. In spite of that, coach Bob Pollock was pleased with his team's performances. "We ran really well against some great teams," Pollock said. "We're hitting a good stride coming off the indoor season." By SABRINA SELLS Appalachian Sports Editor Never in one weekend have I had to swallow as much pride as I did last Saturday and Sunday. In an earlier column, I spouted endlessly on the merits of the Big East in basketball and their abili­ ty to do very well in post-season tournaments. Please allow me to remove my foot from my mouth and admit that I was wrong, dead wrong. Since the elimination of Georgetown and Syracuse and Pitt ad infinitum, I have been searching for a reason, a cause as to their downfall. One reason comes to mind immediately; bad luck. When I say bad luck, I don't mean that the teams who beat the Big East were lucky to do so, I believe that the Big East was unlucky to draw such good teams in the first two rounds. In the case of Pitt, I will say that it was bad, bad luck that knocked them out so early. It must be stated however that the Panthers lost a great deal of their firepower when Rod Brookin made himself ineligible due to academic problems. For that, Pitt has no one to blame except their ( own program. Syracuse lost because they were inconsistent. On one night the Orangemen could beat anybody, then the next evening they would have trouble putting away Niagra. One could try to make excuses all day, but with the talent Syracuse possessed, they should have made at least the Sweet Sixteen. Jim Boeheim did not do a great job in motivating his men for the tournament. Temple is a better team than Georgetown. It is that simple. The mantle of The Beast of the East now rests squarely on the Owls' shoulder. If Temple can maintain their intensity for two more weeks, I think they will be the national champions. In the West, poor Seton Hall ran into a bzz-saw named Arizona. I honestly do not believe that a single team in the East could defeat Arizona. In met, maybe the only team in America capable of challenging Arizona is Temple. Carrying the Big East banner ™o the Sweet Sixteen is 'llanova. The Wildcats are not the team I expected to go this /jr> but I should stop discounting assimino's ability to have his eam Peak at the right times. 1985 aught me alot about the NCAA °urnament. Perhaps I should try and put the knowledge to good use and forget some of my pre­ judices. As for the rest of the field of »the usual number of upsets <h ^'Pderella teams have reared neir heads. The most amusing game of the eekend had to be the North Loyola game. After a f„i|0 ""season in the ACC, many T s'iU thought that the r eels would be defeated in the m , r°und by an upstart, y team from California. , Personally knew some who dgable basketball people more impressed by lov Jawin over Wyoming than S season- Come now, sham bei;„6 °n tl,ose y°u who ath J6 that L°y°la had better f° L.oy ^ar0l'na Put on a clinic r 0 Hal have hemple loses t0 Richmond, VC t0 retract everything basketbaiiSa'd ttiore Her impressive statistics do not stop there, though. The 5'11" for­ ward/center also averages 10.5 re­ bounds per game with 20 of her 26 games this year in double figures. Whiteside also tallied 93 steals this year, an impressive figure for an in­ side player. In addition to Whiteside, UTChattanooga's Regina Kirk was honored with the Player of the Year title. UT-Chattanooga finished third in the conference this "year. Whiteside helped lead the Lady Apps to a 24-4 season this year and to the conference title and tournament championship. The team defeated a tough Marshall squad three times to clinch the top spot in the conference. In the tournament championship game against the Lady Herd, Whiteside had 26 points and 19 re­ bounds to lead ASU to-the victory. Head Coach Linda Robinson at­ tested to Whiteside's outstanding per­ formance after the tournament. "I can't say enough about Val," she said. "She played offense and defense like an All-American."

In the 100 meter dash, Lamonda Miller placed third with a time of 11.69 seconds. Miller also ran on the 4x100 meter relay team with Deirdre Keyes, Stethane Pipkins and Lynett Farmer. The team finished fourth with a time of 47.38 seconds. That same team later took second in the 4x200 meter relay with a time of 1:40.84. "Considering the com­ petition we were up against, we did very well indeed," Coach John Weaver In the 4x100 meter relay, the team of Darryl Russell, Frank Allen, War­ ren Posey, and Keith Collins sprinted to a sixth place finish with a time of 41.88 seconds. That same team also finished sixth in the 4x200 meter relay with a time of 1:29.3. In the sprint medley relay, Russell, Collins, Allen and Dean Duncan took another sixth place finish with a time of 3:32. Pete Vandenberg placed third in the 3,000 meter steeplechase with a time of 9:17.9. The 5,000 meters saw Charlie Storm finish ninth at 15:11.3. Appalochion Photo by Tamoula Trivott I The Lady Mountaineers' Valorie Whiteside a strong showing in the conference tournament, the ASU squad failed to receive a bid to the NCAA or the NIT basketball tournaments. Players and coaches at ASU were shocked. Whiteside especially felt cheated by the team's failure to receive a bid. "It never crossed my mind that we would not get a bid," she said. "I thought that I was dreaming a bad dream and that Monday I would wake up and the whole day would end dif­ ferently." "It really hurt me to find out that 1 had played my last college game and I didn't even know it," Whiteside said. "I felt like I had been robbed the chance to feel the emotions of a last game." While her college career in basket­ ball is definitely over, there is a possibility that a career in profes­ sional basketball is in the making for Whiteside. "Coach Robinson and I have been talking about the possibility of my playing professional basketball overseas," she said. "Nothing is cer­ tain in that area yet, but I would be playing in the Dominican-Republic with other players from the Southern Conference against a professional team from there." "We ran really well against some great teams," Pollock said. "We're hit­ ting a good stride coming off the indoor season. " Coach Bob Pollock A third place finish went to the distance medley relay team of Thane Harmon, David Keefler, David Ess, and Dean Duncan. Their time in the event was 10:23. In the field events, Ail-American Warren Posey placed second in the triple jump with a distance of 51 feet 1/4 inch. Posey also placed sixth in the long jump with a leap of 23 feet 2 inches. Leigh Hawkins placed third in the discus throw with a toss of 157 feet 2 In the field events, AllAmerican Warren Posey placed second in the triple jump with a distance of 51 feet 1/4 inch. Posey also placed sixth in the long jump with a leap of 23 feet 2 inches. The 4x100 meter relay team of Pipkins, Keyes, Melissa Rogers, and Karen Osada ran to a fourth place finish in a time of 4:06. In the 3,000 meters Vanessa Tysor finished fourth with a time of 10:27.3. Beth Ruggles took a fourth place finish in the 5,000 meters with a 17:41.6 time. Next week both the men's and women's track teams will travel to Raleigh for the A tlantic Coast Relays, to be held at N.C. Linda McKoy placed second in the triple jump with a distance of 37 feet 3 inches. McKoy also finished fourth in the high jump with a leap of 5 feet 5 inches.

SHAVER Appalachian Staff Writer Two rounds of play in the NCAA tournament last weekend have reduc­ ed the field of 64 to 16 teams. Of the five North Carolina schools ho entered the tournament, two, UNiv and Duke, arc still alive. In the West Regional, UNC defeated North Texas State and then Loyola to advance to the semi finals.

UNCC lost a close Southeast Regional game to Brigham Young in overtime the same day in Atlanta. The next day, N.C.

Georgia Tech overcame Iowa State Friday in the first round of lyiidwast Regional mm—y- the East Regional in Hartford, Con­ necticut and was defeated in turn by a suprising Richmond team on Sunday.

BROW N. Editorial Production Manager TERESA CHALK, Advertising Production Manager Spring and burnout Each sp: at ASU, many students share a common problem. After length> summer vacations, students return to school with en­ thusiasm and high energy levels. What happens to students in the spring? Weather plays a vital role in attitudes. Long v inters often cause students to experience "cabin fever." Be­ ing lockeo tuloors h a disagreeable roommate can pose stressful situations to many students. Warm weat Fa emotional release. Relaxing in Price Park or sunbathing in 01 of residence halls provides an outlet for students. However, relaxation often results in procrastination. Books are too often set aside when sun basking opportunities arise. What can be done 10 prevent procrastination? Setting aside time NOW to do pi. je. and papers is the best solution. A few hours of study now, can save several hours later. Procrastination can take on several forms. Some people procrastinate by skipping class, neglecting assignments or completing projects at the last minute. People often a\oid problems entirely by completing everything ex­ cept the task at hand. Making phonecalls, visiting friends or suddenly deciding to clean an apartment are common excuses. What can be done to solve these problems? The ASU Psychological Services Center can help. Staff members are qualified in areas of time management, stress, relationship problems and overall burnout. These individuals are eager to listen and can offer unbiased advice that cannot always be provided by a close friend. Many students fee! hat they would be looked down on for attending sessions at the counseling center. On the contrary, it takes an intelligent person to realiz. thai he/she needs help. It also takes a great deal of courage to ask for help. Everyone feels pressured at times. Everyone needs to have a way to vent frustration and air problems. Students should utilize the counselihg center more frequently . During : h . fir. exam period, nothing is more stressful than having to niHttfJUo .taking tests. By working now, much of the stress of exams can be alleviated. Burnout could also be a result of a lengthy school year. Classes at ASU run longer than most schools in the system. This year ASt) classes end on May 5 and exams end on May 12. At NC State, classes end on April 22 and exams end on May 3. This extra wee* ot classes may not seem significant; however students and iciiitv have a better chance of becoming burned out. Furthermore, • r students search for jobs over these breaks. By prolonging the school year, students from other schools have an extra week to find jobs. ASU students are missing out on this competitive edge. For many students, these temporary jobs provide funding for col­ lege. If they do not find jobs and earn enough money during breaks, returning to school the following semester may be impossible. Students need to make conscientious efforts not to become over­ whelmed with "spring fever." Burnout should never be used as an excuse to procrastinate. Homework does not get completed if it is ignored. Furthermore, class attendance is crucial to making good grades. Students should go to Urice Park during the weekends or when class lets out in the afternoon. Students came to ollege to get an education and should take advan­ tage of the programs offered at ASU.

Maybe out to the Parkway, maybe just around town or some little back road in the county. Well, no sooner than we got out the door and to the parking lot, we saw a very drunken guy, staggering around I and walking into walls (literally), get into a car and stress and add to our social life. That's OK, that's drive away. Needless to say, we waited until he was FAR away cool. However, it's NOT cool at ALL to get in your car and went in the opposite direction. We were driving down the four-lane, minding our own business, and after that party (or whenever), when you're too ^ o two guys in a Pinto drinking something (I couldn't drunk to walk straight, and try to drive home. It's see what it was, but it soon became obvious) weaved quite another thing from a reasonably healthy party into our lane and very nearly hit us. I slowed down to endangering the live of both yourself and others, and proceeded to watch them weave about the road, Hey, when I was 16 or so, I too thought it was cool slowing down and speeding up erratically, until they to show how great 1 could drive after a six-pack, pulled in at one of the many 24-hour convenience However, I'm not 16 anymore, and neither are you. stores here in Boone.

You can whine all you idiotically for friendship, fun and escape, that's your want about one person missing out on the fun, but if business, at least in my opinion. If you're old I were that person, I'd feel pretty damned good enough to be at college, living on your own, then knowing I was going to keep my friends and myself you're old enough to know the pros and cons of safe. It would be damn immature to endanger drinking and decide for yourself if you want to par- everyone around your for the sake of "having fun ticipate.

Religion, state mix equals By AL HUMAN Appalachian Columnist Last semester, I had written an arti­ cle entitled "Separating Church and State" (The Appalachian, October 27, 1987.) It was part of a series of articles I had written on myths regard­ ing the U.S. Constitution. the article, I argued against the Religious Right position that the Con­ stitution was a Christian document and was never intended to separate religion and state. I still stand by my position wholeheartedly. However, in all my writings, I have never elaborated upon the deeper philosophic justification for the separation of religion and state. With the likes of Rev. Pat "King Canute" Robertson and Rev. Jesse "Sweet Daddy Grace" Jackson still running rampant, it would be very wise to clarify the proper justification of the separation of religion and state. If a justification can't be voiced for it now, it certainly won't be defensible against attacks certain to come in the future which may well suppress the right to defend it. It is popularly held that the separa­ tion of religion and state is justified on pluralistic grounds. The pluralistic argument has it that the separation of religion and state is justified because the United States is a nation possess­ by Berke Breathed A BOX OF TROJANS WAS ALSO FOUND AND, AFTER MUCH DEBATE, FINALLY IDENTIFIED AS POSSIBLY BEINC?

WHICH PRETTY WELL WRAPPED THINGS THE HECK UP FOR THE NIGHT. ing a wide variety of religious denominations and sects which must all be accommodated by the political process to maintain social peace. Initially I myself held to this. However, to hold this as the justifica­ tion of separating religion and state is "to put it on very spurious grounds. When government decides on what counts as evidence of a crime, for example, it doesn't "accommodate" all possible theories that claim to pro­ vide an answer. And when the govern­ ment decides on whether to use a Colt .45 or a Baretta 9mm automatic pistol for its Armed Forces, it doesn't accept all theories of ballistics and trajectory as equally valid to keep the peace. The fact is there are many legitimate secular practices in which government relies upon one idea over another and doesn't "accommodate" all ideas. Therefore, the pluralistic argument for separting religion and state is inadequate. Also, to have separation of religion and state in the name of "social peace" is selfcontradictory. Whether it's the William Jennings Bryans of Chris­ tianity, the Ayatollah Khomeinis of Islam, or the Meier Kahanes of Judaism, no truly devout religionist recognizes any area of life which should be outside the bounds of religion's hegemony. If religion is accepted as a valid guide in private life, there is no reason why it shouldn't be accepted as valid in political life. Therefore, the separa­ tion of religion and state is only bound to inflame the devout religionists all the more and thus can­ not be justified on pluralistic grounds. Obviously, the pluralistic argument for the separation of religion and state cannot hold water. What then will provide a strong defense for it? To understand this, one must examine the fundamental nature of things, the means by which one acquires knowledge of it, and the relevance these have to the issue. In short, one must have an understanding of the two branches of philosophy which respectively deal with these prob­ lems—metaphysics and epistemology. Epistemologically, to rationally demonstrate the existence of something is to identify its specific characteristics distinguishing it from everything else. In other words, to know that a thing is, one must first know what it is. It makes no sense to say that "a unicorn exists" if one doesn't know what a unicorn is. And since, metaphysically, the structure of a thing determines and delimits how it acts, it follows that to rationally demonstrate the existence of something, one must not only identify its distinguishing characteristics, but one must be able to identify the sphere of its actions as well. In short, to rationally demonstrate the existence of something is to identify its limits because everything that exists has limits of space, time, and action. However, by the admission of Judeo-Christian-Islamic religion, the actions, characteristics, and the very existence of God and the supernatural cannot be limited. Since belief in God and the supernatural are the defining traits of religious belief, it follows that religious belief is not rationally demonstrable. What bearing does all of this have upon the issue of separation of religion and state? It is this: to say that government should base actions on religious belief is to that government should base actions on the rational undemonstrable. To say that re' and state should be welder that ggverrtfriAt /faTaijd rationaTjustificSion for its Effectively, this places no limit the power of government at It isn't just a cliche totalitarians wish to "play God.1 While not every totalitarian ideotof necessitates religious belief, re! belief coupled with political necessitates totalitarianism, notions of God and the supern are perfectly complimentary totalitarianism.

This is happening without the students being aware of it, and we're not too sure the university isn't try­ ing to hide it. Since you probably aren't aware of this well-kept univer­ sity secret, allow us to enlighten you. The Dougherty House, the home of the founders of our school D.D. and B.B. Dougherty, is located next to Justice Hall on Rivers Street. It has been where it is now since it was built in 1903. The house had been occupied by members of the Dougherty family until December of 1984, when the university bought the home and 28 acres of property along with it. Since its purchase, the university has shamefully let the historically significant Dougherty House deterioriate, despite offers to make the house a state historical site. The house was the heart of Boone in the early days of the Appalachian Training School. Not only did the house board visitors and commence­ ment speakers, but tftirsty passengers on the passing Tweetsie would stop to drink out of the spring that used to exist next to the house before the university destroyed it. The house the only one of its kind in this area, is the only surviving link to the past' of both the university and the town of Boone. The Dougherty Committee, a group trying to save the house, has been making appeals to restore the house to its original state, but the apathetic university has turned a df?fAcaf,and 'nStead wants the h°use ott ASU property by June 1. When the house was bought, it was understood through verbal agree­ ment by members of the family that the university would restore and keep the house where it is. Without the Dougherty family, the school would not exist. The university is knonng this fact, along with a 1 values of common de«n y and respect.

Tina Morris, a student represen­ tative of the Traffic Management and Safety Committee addressed a sparse SGA Senate Tuesday night, introduc­ ing six proposals co-created by Direc­ tor of Public Safety and Security Roy Tugman and Vice Chancellor for Business Affairs Dr. Ned Trivette. Morris met with Tugman and Trivette on March 3 to voice student concerns on traffic and safety. "Presently, if a student lives out­ side certain boundaries they can't get a parking sticker," Morris said. "They (security) plan to expand these limits to allow for more students to obtain stickers." In addition to this Morris said security will devise a better method of providing "positive proof" of where someone lives. A proposal to enforce "positive control areas" was also discussed. Appalachian Street, Locust Street and Academy Street would be closed off and University vehicles would have limited access, only between 7 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Morris said Chancellor Thomas was concerned with monoxide levels on campus, thus the closing off of the street to heavy traffic. "I don't agree with the closing off of streets," Senator Ashley Lester said. "The real problem seems to be with students driving too fast." Lester referred to a girl who was recently hit by a car in front of the ASU Post Office. Also within the area of positive control is the plan to install electronic checkpoint gates at additional park­ ing area due to safety reasons and for faculty needing access. Regulation enforcement within these zones would expand to 24 hours per day; seven days per week. A restructuring of fees is also pro­ posed which will mandate that all students, regardless of whether they own vehicles or not, pay a uniform transportation fee of $20 per academic year. Off-campus storage area for vehicles owned by freshmen is also proposed. The charge for this type of storage is an additional $20. Morris said these payments will cater to expansion of the present Appalcart system and fund the improve­ ment of parking facilities. Senator Carl Jeffcoat questioned the use of funds to appropriate elec­ tronic gates in favor of using the money to pay for space expansion. Senator Corky Collins responded saying these were ordinances pro­ hibiting the leveling of mountains. "The reason they're installing these gates and everything is to curb the parking problem as quickly as possible," Collins said. In an earlier meeting between Tugman, SGA President Cary Ann Wolf and SGA Vice President Adelaide Beeker, Tugman spoke positively about the parking situation. "We hope beginning in April to ticket unregistered vehicles on campus at night," Tugman said. "We think this will help the parking problem some." A more negative attitude among the Senate and Wolf arose in response to the new proposals. "The parking situation is an outrage," Wolf said, "It is totally stupid." Tugman will address the Senate on Tuesday, seeking a favorable consen­ sus in regard to the new proposals.

The sad fact is that the student attack is not an isolated incident and many other cases go unreported each year due to various reasons. But why aren't such attacks reported to alert others, and what is the administration doing to promote student safety? These are all questions our committee members will be looking into. We see a potentially harmful prob­ lem with security. Through some pro­ tective attempt to keep a positive cam­ pus image, potentially harmful information becomes muddled and eventually silenced. It seems our image as a university has, in the estimation of some, taken precedent over the safety and well-being of the students who attend it. Hopefully the problem of student safety is one which will be addressed by the university and its administrative officials. We must realize that this is a long term problem with no short term solution. Whatever path we choose to solve this problem, let us at least hope that path, or any path for that matter, is well lit and safe. Our very lives may depend on it. Editor's Note: Bobby Justice is,the SGA Student Affairs Committee Chairperson. Groups may be nominated Clancy said. In addition to submitting the com­ pleted application, an organization must also attach two letters of recom­ mendation from individuals not affiliated with the organization in any official capacity. Also a formal state­ ment of 500 to 750 words explaining why the organization should be recognized for outstanding perform­ ance. In addition, official copies of minutes which reflect the activity of the organization are optional. Nineteen organizations submitted applications last Spring Semester and in all categories the Presidents Coun­ cil considered how the group benefited the university and students in general. Last years winners were Phi Beta Lambda in the education and fundraising categories, Fellowship of Christian Athletes in the social activi­ ty category, Phi Mu sorority for community service and Student Ambassadors for university service. "I encourage everyone to apply (this semester) because it really is a nice honor," Clancy said. "I don't think a whole lot of schools do this and I would like to see a whole bunch of groups apply," Clancy added. The Presidents Council who will have the final decision in selecting the Outstanding Organization in each of the five categories consist of members elected from a general session of Club Presidents. This year's members include Craig Bulter, Donna Dup< nt, Victoria Edwards, Wayne Leon .rd, Chris McGuire, James McRacken, Michael Rock, Yvonne Rector, Chris Blackburn, Bill Boughton, and Jim Toumer. Applications can be picked up and returned to the receptionist desk in Workman Hall. They are due by 5 p.m. Friday, April 8. The awards will be presented at a later date by Vice-Chancellor for Stu­ dent Affairs Dr. Dave Mclntire at the General Session of Club Presidents. �2 THE A PPA LACHI A N, THURSDA Y, MARCH 17, 1988 Come Try Us!

EXCELLENT SELECTION OF A L S O A V A I I ARI F. �THE APPALACHIAN THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDAY, MARCH 17, 1988 ET CETERA Tahitian influence at ASU Mary Miller Ensemble steels idea Don't slip on starch By HARRY DOWLESS Appalachian Staff Writer Combine old 50 gallon steel drums, rubber balls, sticks, and a lot of paint and an extensive variety of musical talent; and what do you have? The ASU Steel Drum Ensemble, and a totally new type of sound on the American music scene with it's origins extending to the beaches of Tahiti. Not only is the ensemble proud to pre­ sent honed perfection in the execution of musical combinations, but also takes pride in the art of musical in­ strument construction. The ensemble began as the brain child of Dr. Scott Myster who decided to convert the idea into reality. At first funding was a problem but in a stroke of genius he thought, "Why couldn't we create our own in­ struments just as the Tahitians do?" With this idea as a guiding force he began to involve students in the pro­ cess of instrument craftsmanship, so a truly unique type of music might be tuned into perfection while you study Ironing—the ultimate in procrastination. When I have a BIG test coming up and I think about how many weeks of notes await me, there s nothing I'd rather do than iron every piece of clothing inmy closet. Everybody has their own "thing" to do to avoid studying. Mine just hap­ pens to be ironing. Laugh if you will, but think about it for a minute What better way to postpone studying and not feel half as guilty as if you had 3 partied all night before a test? There's something about the mindless task of ironing that allows me to ponder why for the 189th time I waited until the day before a killer mid-term to study eight weeks of notes. Occasionally, my mind drifts on to more important things while ironing—the meaning of life, the value of a college education, the importance of friends, family, religion and goofing off every chance I get—philosophical things like that m sure every college student ponders at least once a week. My old roommates always knew when I had a crucial test coming up There I'd be in the dorm lobby-Easy On spray starch, ironing board set up, and my ,rusty General Electric steam iron crackling hot from a test spit. Patiently they watched me iron creases in every pair of jeans I owned while my books collected dust. It never seemed to bother any of them but Scarlet. The spray starch left a slick spot on the tile floor right in front of her door. She kindly asked me to put newspapers down before I did my domestic chore, but we kinda got a kick out of watching her slip. It reminded me of the time my mother used "Son of a Gun" on the kitchen chairs. Some of the spray accidentally fell on the kitchen floor and a friend of hers almost busted his posterior on the way to the refrigerator. "What did you say you used on those chairs," he asked "Son of a B "I believe it's one of those things where people enjoy the music and everyone has a good time. We are building new instruments and will be sounding better next year, so check it out!" —Chris Wall bash, Steel Drum Player ?" Anyway, Scarlet never forgave me for not putting newspaper on the floor In fact, the slick spot stayed in front of her door until the last day of school when we had to mop the floor to get our housing deposits back. Ironing is good therapy. As a mental holiday, it's even better than watching TV or taking a drive, especially in Boone. Just think—no kamikaze driver to cut you off in the turn lane, no idiot who doesn't know what a turn signal is to block traffic in the middle of Blowing Rock Road. 1 cruise on across that long leg of brand new acid washed denims with my GE instead of watching the tube. Uninterrupted mindlessness. I can't think of a better way to justify procrastination than with something constructive. I get the ironing done and goof off at the same time. All the while, I'm trying to figure out how I can make an "A" on my exam when I'm ironing like an idiot. What possesses a person to do such things? ^——• Much labor is poured into the crea­ tion of the steel drums and equip­ ment. In order to produce the right note tones, one must have four various sizes of 50 gallon drums. These barrels are sawed off into desired lengths and the bottoms pounded inward with a sledge ham­ Through programs and events B?±Z:omo*sawareness By APRIL GRIFFIN Et Cetera Editor Ever learned about black culture? The Black Student Association (BSA) is a campus organization that caters to the needs of minority students. Over 140 students are active members. The aim of BSA is to make students aware of black culture through various community and campus activities. Last semester BSA sponsored Black Heritage Week with displays in the Student Union and a performance by 'he Chuck Davis African-Dance Ensemble. A "Kawanza" African east was a high point to the celebra­ tion. USA sponsored a program in honor Dr. Martin Luther King on his ,'rthday in Our House. Various stuent leaders spoke of the impact he as made on black Americans. I enjoyed it. There was a real feel­ ing of fellowship there and the involvement was excellent. It brought our organization closer together," BSA President Darin Eaton said. For Black History Month, displays were set up in the Student Union and BSA co-sponsored the Alvin Ailey Dance Theatre performance. Organization members are invited to participate in the BSA choir. The Gospel Choir gives over 13 concerts a year and travels more than 3,000 miles to spread their song to others. Students audition for voice place­ ment. "We look for students with reasonable vocal talent," BSA advisor Willie Felming said. The gospel choir also does minority recruitment for ASU while they are performing on the road. "We answer any questions they (prospective students) might have about it (the university)," Fleming Appalachian Photo Court*,y The ASU Steel Drum Ensemble has really got the beat! mer. A sink is then produced. This is one of the most crucial aspects of in­ strument construction because the sink must be at an exact depth in order to produce the proper notes. A leather punch with the point filed flat serves as the proper tool for "groov­ ing" the notes out within the sink area. The work is far from over for the next step the drums must be burn­ ed to soften the steel producing a more quality sound. This step is tricky because if the drum is left in too long or allowed 'to cool too quickly, the piece is useless. The drum mallets are created by in­ serting wooden sticks into various siz­ ed rubber balls. The process is time consuming but the instrumental sec­ tion of the ensemble continues to ex­ pand its range through ingenuity and patience. <>f minorities said Over Spring Break the choir went to the island of Nassau. One morning they had the chance to perform at the University of the Bahamas and introduce students to ASU. The gospel choir pays for their entire trip with donations and funds from seven major fundraisers. "With the students paying for their trip I think it is commendable they are out there for the university," Fleming said. BSA is working hard to make Black Awaieness Weekend (April 14-17) a success. Prospective ASU students are invited to attend class with BSA members and look around campus. "We try and make students feel comfortable with ASU and aid in recruitment. We started planning this at the beginning of the semester," Eaton said. The Men's Service Club Variety of Mlk. Doming., show will be held April 14 for students to enjoy. On Saturday a cookout is planned weather permit­ ting and that evening a Miss Black Culture Pageant will be held. Five ladies have gone through qualifying interviews based on intelligence, beauty and most importantly, cultural sense. A coronation ball will be held in the Skylight Lounge following the pageant. Eaton has enjoyed his work with BSA and feels it has helped him with new situations. "I love meeting new people. It has taught me so much in both a business and social sense. It helped me in my public speaking. I feel more confident now," he said. If you would like to find out more about BSA they meet every other Wednesday night at 7:30 p.m. in the BSA Conference Room of Plemmons Student Union. The dilligent labors of the ensemble members have indeed paid off. Many social groups have requested their performance, ranging from varipus schools throughout the area to churches and holiday parades. They have even played at the North Carolina Musical Convention. While performing at the convention, several impressed individuals requested their performance at the South Carolina Musical Convention to represent ASU. So much for drumming up pro­ spective students. The ensemble members are the hub of the band's existence. Throughout the course of the band's embryonic stages, time for student practice was of the utmost importance. They desired a class of excellence that not only took regular practice time, but every spare moment was dedicated to the band. "I learned a lot about instrumental steel drums. I didn't know how they were made," steel drum player Chirs Allen said. "I believe it was a grand experience since you have not had any type of music to resemble this." "I believe it's one of those things where people enjoy the music and everyone has a good time," steel drum player Chris Wallbash said. "We are building new instruments and will be sounding better next year, so check it out!" Anyone who has an interest and some musical background may become a member of the ensemble. If an individual does not mind a little hard work, has an expansively creative imagination, and a great in­ terest in the steel drums; then contact Dr. Scott Myster, ensemble director. Blues rocks with The Gators sound By ANGIE CHESNUT Appalachian Staff Writer On several occasions, I have had the pleasure of hearing The Alligators perform. This five-man rhythm and blues band is a fun-loving bunch whose love for the blues keeps them together even though two of their members have graduated. Chris Clapp, guitarist, says, "Play­ ing the blues is the most fun. I wouldn't want to play anything else. It's a pleasure to stay together and play. Everyone just really gets into it." "If you don't dig the blues you got a hole in your soul—Albert King said that," said Mike Conway, guitar player. The "Gators' " enthusiasm for the blues and for playing together is best expressed by Scott Post, drummer, "We've seen a hundred faces and we've ROCKED THEM ALL!" Even though the band members en­ joy the blues, they all started out listening to some other form of rock'n'roll. Post explains that rock'n'roll has its origin in the blues. "We all have diverse musical tastes, but it's like we've all gone brack in time and are studying earlier musical forms," Post said. Billy Vinson, bass, adds, "The blues in the 80's has crossed the geographical and racial barriers." The Alligators were put together by Conway and Vinson in the fall of 1987. They were interested in getting a • band together and started hunting for musicians. They found all the talent they needed living In Coffey Hall. "We all lived within twenty feet of each other. We were real lucky everything fell together," says Con­ way. "We were the soul vampires and See GATORS Page 4 »ee the world for credit I Travel abroad with International Studies BkDIANNE WALLY Appalachian Staff Wrilcr »ou°tJ0.U ,on8 for adventure?

Weird stuff like thai ' ihroughout the mo™, and nobod, J JaS" | The basic plot has the couple growing as a couple and learning to deal with Ihfe's little problems, like Knst.e's father.

When Kr sUe's mother was relating the story of how she had so many problems in labor with Knshe, she reminds Dad how he didn't even know she was having trouble and he replies, "Of course not, I was on the golf course " Eventually they move out of their cheap apartment into a nice house in a nice neighborhood, and trade the 2002 in on a 325. They manage to do this hanks to Jake s new job, which he got by faking a resume, and lying through his teeth. Since he was applying to an ad agency, they were impressed with his creative writing skills, and hired him anyway. The central story is this couple trying to have a baby, and I won't reveal the ending in case this has inspired anyone to go out and rent this on video but the best part is the way that they show little everyday things. This is a very believable movie. It s also damn funny. Kevin Bacon doesn't look too haH| piiw ' _ — ^ # Appalachian Staff Columnist When I was in junior high school, I got to appear on a show geared for young people on a local TV station. I'm still not sure how this thing was set up, but I think it involved some political red tape within the school. The person responsible for my flirta­ tion with prime time was an older woman who practically the whole Ischool hated. She thought I was as good as gold and a banner student, and it was she who drove me to the [studio for the taping. I had never been near a TV studio lefore, much less appeared on the tube, so I was extremely high strung. I tad to wait around a long time for the ictual taping to begin because earlier that day the president had been shot n the chest by John Hinckley, and 'veryone was running around trying o catch the latest update. In the room vhere I waited I saw the President flinch perhaps one thousand times on the monitor hanging from the ceiling. By the time the camera crew was ready for me, I could act out the inci­ dent completely in perfect sync with the screen and even change roles after each performance if I so desired. I was well dressed and very ner­ vous. I had to read a paper I had writ­ ten about litter on school campuses. I sat there looking stern, criticizing students for not taking more pride in their schools. This was really ludicrous for, in reality, I couldn't care less what my campus looked like. I hated junior high. I had hated it since I was first forced to learn a locker combination. As a timid 7th grader, I was over­ whelmed by the non-sympathetic monster physical education teachers who barked out our last names every chance they got, and threatened the boys with jock-checks to make sure everyone was wearing one.

Evening with the Exploited in Charlotte By ERIC BOLASH Appalachian Slaff Wrilcr A legendary archetype on the hard core/punk scene appeared Saturday, February 27, at the International Club in Charlotte, North Carolina. The Exploited sported their narrow, stream-lined Mohawks and "screw everything" music for a crowd of about four hundred. "u'Kj.cu. The Exploited were lead, as always, by the highstrung, excitable Wattie Buchan. A veteran to the scene, this stocky Scotsman clad in orange Mohawk, with hoops in nose and ear, a Neanderthal-like face, bare chest, red-on-black pattern suspenders, bleached jeans, and combat boots was on the stage with a frenzied thi vengeance, speedily beginning the show with "Let's Start A War." These chaps hail from the U.K., and they displayed an overriding sense of professionalism and efficiency amongst the chaos created by their music. The Exploited have gone through some changes in their line-up. Ap­ parently, Wattie has acquired a new bass guitarist and guitarist since the last album. The new album's (Death Before Dishonor) jacket only pro­ vides the first names, so, for what it is worth, Tony is the new bassist and Nig is the guitarist. Along with drum­ mer, Willie, the four members gelled, contrary to observed comments by See EXPLOITED Page 8 bigtbut not quite prime time ASU Jazz Ensemble, ime, Had a By JAMIE McLENDON Used to be there was only a few bands I liked from down under. AC/DC ranked at the top and INXS is another. I've got to add Midnight Oil to the list. Their latest album, Diesel and Dust, is powerful, simply put. It's currently number three on the Top 10 College Albums according to Rolling Stone. I can understand why. The music is tight and sparse, leav­ ing the listener wondering if there should be more, yet also satisfied. Midnight Oil has charismatic front man Peter Garrett belting out lyrics in a gravelly, Aussie-accented voice that compliments the rest of the band wonderfully. The guitar duo of Jim Moginie (also tickles the ivories) and Martin Rotsey delivers a potent one, two songs on an album. (Except, of guitar punch. Bassist Peter Gifford course, for an album like Tiffany's and hyper-drummer Rob Hirst keep where every song is the worst song.) the rhythm lively.

I was still a male alto in the church choir.) During lunch, older tough guys would follow me into the bathroom and demand my lunch money. As fate would have it, this always happened after I had already eaten, or I would have gladly given it to them. I settled for a full stomach and verbal abuse instead. In 8th grade, someone broke into my gym locker and threw my shorts into the urinal. I tried out for the junior varsity football team and made it, despite my thin size. (Incidentally, no one was cut.) The coaches ignored me and my friends suggested I apply for team manager instead. ("Hey, you could even get a letter...) I stuck it out though, missing few, if any, practices. My excellent attendance record and all-around oood nature and sportsmanship didn't seem to faze my coaches who didn't put me in one single game. I did, however, come close to getting in a fight with the quarterback, who had developed a big head as a result of his rank. I decided one day in P.E. class to walk down the balance beam with socks on. I slipped and fell, reaching unbelievable escalated new heights of pain in my groin which had been the primary point of impact. I spent the rest of the period hobbling about the locker room, pacing, breathing noisi­ ly, and clutching myself. Junior high school was sheer hell in every vivid description of the place I had ever had. But still, here I was now in front of faceless cameras preaching pride and school spirit with all the fury of an early Puritan sermon that would have made Cotton Mather proud. Dazed, I finished my piece and looked into the distance glassy-eyed. On a dozen different screens, Reagan took another fall. A group with an artful show that the metaphorical masterpiece had sailed over our heads. Surely now we could appreciate it for the cinematic marvel that had escaped us then. I am reminded of the Townsend lyrics "No one respects the flame quite like the fool who's badly burned." Sage ad­ vice from Pete and we should have known better. As the bad symbolism mounted Andrew started in on a bot­ tle of cough syrup. We shared his sen­ timent as the final traces of Friday started looking more and more like Saturday morning. After a groggy start to Saturday, things got going and pretty soon it was time to head for the Queen City. We were Charlotte bound and subse­ quently started brewing heavily. We made good time and hit the Coliseum floor just in time. The lights went down and the sparce but maniacal crowd came alive. The hand-held concert pyres were being lit throughout the steel and concrete monstrosity. The combina­ tion of contraband smoke, hard li­ quor and hairspray odors permeated the dry ice clouds as Lemmy struck the first chords on his Rickenbacker. The set was everything I had ex­ pected from a Motorhead show; a wall of bone-numbing noise. The tunes may have started out as songs but by the time they raged through the Marshall columns they were more like street construction noises (not unlike the ones that my fatheaded room­ mates and I hear out of our windows on King Street). Don't get me wrong, I knew what I was getting into from the start. I don't really like Motorhead nor am I planning to buy any of their records, but they are real metal. They still play fast and obnox­ ious gut-wrenching metal. When I was in high school and listening to a lot of heavy metal, Motorhead was revered as the ultimate fast metal band. I didn't know anyone who owned one of their records but the consensus was Motorhead rocked harder than anyone. In the last couple of years speed metal has gained popularity and bands like Metallica, Megadeath, Venom, and Celtic Frost have fought for the position of fastest/loudest. Motorhead has always played that way and in an era of misdirection in heavy metal have kept their wits about them. They never paraded around in spandex and make-up or pretended to be a pagan ceremony. Now that those same bands who were shouting at the devil are pelvic thrusting and screaming "Girls, girls, girls" in very slick videos, Motorhead is metal. There were no ballads with technically excellent solos in tandem with swirling keyboard work that in­ duced visions of a scantilly clad Tawny Kitaen gyrating on a heavily polished sports car. Never mind that you could scream the lyrics of "Ace of Spaces" to about four numbers, including "Stone deaf in the USA." Motorhead was redundant, abrasive, ear-ringing; what metal should be all about. Alice Cooper is not what metal is all about but don't tell him that. When he emerged from this detox­ ification that was caused by a two case a day habit, he had to smile. Beefing up Alice's sound and stage were a guitarist and bassist who look­ ed like they wandered onto the stage from a tag team match. Adding to the ornamentation were a drummer who was too busy throwing and twirling his sticks to keep up a beat and a rhythm guitarist dressed like a priest. The result was a more metal version of Alice's material. The few new tunes were anthemic headbangers like "Raise your fist and yell!" which served as the tour slogan. The show itself was pretty enter­ taining as it turns out. That is, as in­ teresting as gothic cheese horror can be. A bevy of ghouls, fiends, and creatures ranging from a giant black widow to the dark woodsman himself crept onto the stage only for Alice to dismember or impale them and send them slinking backstage. Alice was later found guilty of some heinous of­ fense and sentenced to hang by the neck till dead. Even capital punish­ ment couldn't stop Alice from milk­ ing the seventies for all it's worth. He was resurrected from the dead and in tux and tails no less. He even transformed a song that I saw him do with the Muppets into a metal singalong complete with five minute drum solo and Kane Robert's 10 minute ex­ cursion into the mediocrity of the in­ strument (borrowing heavily from Eddie Van Halen's ten year old "Eruption"). One of the highlights of the show has to be the guy next to me asking me to hold his bag of roasted peanuts as he hoisted his date onto his shoulders for a better view of Lemmy. Motorhead was playing full blast so that conversation went something like this: (Screaming) "Hey, will ya hold these?" "Me?" "Yeah, will ya hold my peanuts?" "What?" (Handing me the bag) "Just hold 'em for a sec!" "You don't want these?" "What?" Another highlight was the sight of heavily made-up, scantily clad girls sitting on the shoulders of their choice singing along with Alice "Only women bleed." Maybe it's just me but I found that a bit odd. I remember as a freshman seeing a film on how women are exploited in commercials either through very ob­ vious means or some very obscure in­ terpretations. Well, the makers of that film should check out the Alice show. At one point this very attractive streetwalker comes out wearing next to nothing and strutted in a very provacative manner. Was she asking for it? You better believe it! Alice grab­ bed the girl and put a knife to her throat. Then he looked to the crowd asking whether or not to give her what she was asking for. Chants of "Kill her!" filled the air in a deafening roar. Alice was happy to oblige with the knife going across the ill-fated strumpet's neck. That she later reemerged as the martyr in "Only women bleed" is irrelevant. The mood had been set. The male partisan crowd wanted blood. The crowd turn­ ed out to be the only truly frightening thing despite all the theatrics. Ah, the arts. Michael Brecker appeal to all types By BILLY VINSON Appalachian Staff Writer Saturday, February 27, the ASU Jazz Ensemble got a chance to jam with saxophone great Michael Brecker before a large crowd at Far­ thing Auditorium. I myself have never been a jazz fan, but everybody raved about how great this guy is, so I figured I'd better check him out. Plus, it was only two bucks. I might admit that as I walked into Farthing Auditorium that night, I was prepared for the worst. I was quite pleased, however, to find that the chairs in the joint are very comfort­ able, and I settled into mine and prepared myself for a good two-hour nap. However, when the Jazz Ensem­ ble came out and started belting out a tune called "Groovin' Hard," I couldn't help but groove right with them. And they kept me grooving for the duration of the concert. The Jazz Ensemble, directed by Jack Wilkins, played the first four tunes of the evening by themselves. If you have never seen the Jazz Ensem­ ble in live performance, by all means check them out because they'll knock your socks off. Again, this review comes from a non-jazz-lover, but the power of those horns and the steady reliability and flash of that rhythm section is truly exciting. And the guys know what they're doing, too: not a single note was missed. Or, at least, they know how to cover up. After the intermission Brecker came out and blew everybody away. A simply incredible saxophonist, he played four songs with the Ensemble and boggled minds all over the house with his well-conceived, brassblistering solos. And it was easy to tell the guys in the Jazz Ensemble were having a ball playing with him: likewise, the audience couldn't help but have fun as well. Director Wilkins even got into the act during a song called "Moose the Mooche," blowing horn alongside Michael Brecker. And I must say it looked like the guy was having a blast. All in all, the show seemed to be a great success, a generous standing ovation being bestowed upon the per­ formers at the end. Michael Brecker and the ASU Jazz Ensemble perform­ ed brilliantly, but I think what kept the audience going was the program selection. The group performed tunes which ranged from jazz classics by Charlie Parker and Duke Ellington to more modern compositions with ap­ peal to a younger generation. This variety of sounds and styles served to keep the non-jazz fan like myself on the edge of his seat. This "jazz for the uninitiated" approach enabled everyone to have a good time: Even us Hank Williams, Jr. fans.

Marshall, while receiving a bid from the NIT, failed to garner a bid because •ir record reflected too easy a schedule (even though the rest of the Southern inference would be inclined to disagree.) Lehigh received an automatic ;AA bid because they won their conference title, tough or not tough, uside from the obvious difference that one team continues NCAA play and „ other team watches the NCAA tournament on television like the rest of us iversity John Does, the big difference is that one team and their fans can hope and dream, however remote that dream may be. The team without NCAA bid, though, can only hope for a better season or perhaps a ougher" schedule next year. be the first to admit the NCAA bidding process has some flaws. The stem is far from perfect, especially the womens' NCAA bids. How can a go 24-4, win the conference title, the conference tournament, and defeat s like UT-C and Marshall and still not get a bid? Somebody in the NCAA screwed up, no doubt. But ASU's Linda Robinson and the Lady Mounineers won't see a bid this year, and after the spectacular year the team had, ,e decision by the NCAA doesn't just seem wrong, it's unjust. "Maybe next iar" won't cut it this time. While a re-evaluation of the bids system is definitely in order, any team will imit that receiving one of the cherished 64 bids is like receiving a treasure iap. All of the teams start with the same map, but only the team who works ,e hardest, musters a few lucky breaks, and finds the area in which the easure lies, receives its rewards, the crown of glory—the NCAA championdp. Sure, there are teams that realize advancing past the first round is more than ,-en a longshot, it's like hoping for warm March weather in Boone. It's just ot going to happen. Take Lehigh and UT-Chattanooga. If you've got a buck rtwo you don't need, bet it on one of these two teams to win the championlip. If they do win, you're an instant millionaire—their odds are almost one lillion to one for a victory. I don't really foresee a rush on the bookies in imerica, though. Then there are the darkhorses—Maryland and UNCC, for example—that veryone truly doubts, but no one discounts. If you've seen either team play, hen you know how unpredictable and explosive they are. Maryland sure left ieorgia Tech stunned in the ACC tournament and gave the Tarheels a tough ime as well. Also, if you'll turn the wheels of time back to earlier in the lasketball season when Kentucky sat on top of the college polls, UNCC gave ae Wildcats a real scare. You'll remember the "basketball gods," that ASU's dm Apke has so fondly mentioned, smiled upon the Cats. Kentucky was given" a lucky two-point victory over UNCC. No, Maryland and UNCC opinents are not overjoyed, needless to say. Then there are the powerhouses-Arizona, Purdue, UNC-CH and Temple. A [ctory for any of them would be no big surprise. They're the big boy con­ siders this year. You can count on at least one or two of them going out earthough, much to their dismay and the opponent's surprise. It's called an >set and it's sure to happen. That helps make this tournament so great and (citing. It really is anybody's ballgame. So whether you bet to win big or you just watch the games and cheer for lurteam to win, get ready. This year's tournament is going to be unique on e path to victory, following the map to that treasure, should prove to be tore than just a little exciting. Appalachian State's Lady Moun taineers experienced both the high's and the low's of tournament basket­ ball this past weekend. By defeating Marshall's Lady Herd for the third time this season the Lady Apps captured their second straight Southern Conference championship. Sporting a 24-4 record, Linda Robin­ son's Women were denied the chance to show their talent in any postseason tournament. ASU went into the Southern Con­ ference tournament as the numberone seed. Their regular season perfor­ mance earned them a first round bye. Last Friday, ASU took on Furman University in the semi-finals. Sherry Carter's Lady Paladin's jumped to an early lead, but the stronger Lady Mountaineers came on to crush Furman 104-77. "I really don't know that I have seen an Appalachian team play with that much intensity in a Southern Conference game," Head Coach Lin­ da Robinson said after the game. "You could tell immediately when we walked on the floor that we were prepared to play and play hard." Senior center Valorie Whiteside led ASU and all scorers with 26 points and 19 rebounds in the contest. Beth Laney chipped in with 17 points. As has been the case most of the season, the Lady Apps defense keyed their run to victory. ASU held Fur­ man to a 41.1 percent shooting percentage in the game and also held Southern Conference Freshman of the Year, Natalie Cleckley, to 14 points and only 6 rebounds. The victory on Friday gave the Lady Apps the momentum they need­ ed for the championship game. "This was the best type of game we could have played because everyone, all 10 players knew they had con­ tributed. We felt very positive and confident going into the finals," Robinson said. The championship game against Marshall saw ASU jump out to an early lead. The Lady Mountaineers had to fight off a valiant Lady Herd comeback and finally won 72-67. "The Marshall game was a somewhat typical AppalachianMarshall game. They're never really beautiful but like Marshall coach Judy Southard always says, 'It's always a brawl or a dogfight'," Robinson said.

Behind the play of all-Southern Conference player Kim Lewis, Marshall fought back to narrow the halftime deficit to only 39-33. * The second half saw the Lady Herd turn the tables on ASU and take a four point lead. "We had a deficit of 58-54 at one time and it was with Marshall playing Jane Dalton ASU's Debbie Swicegood and Joanie Brackett contributed to the victory not by scoring, but by con­ taining Marshall's crowd pleasing Jenelle "Spuds" Stephenson. Coach Robinson called the two guard's con­ tribution "worth their weight in gold." Jane Dalton, Valorie Whiteside, and Beth Laney were named to the All-Tournament team. "Beth had an outstanding tourna­ ment, I can't say enough about Val. She played offense and defense like an All-American. Jane penetrated, controlled the offense and shot the ball well," Robinson said. Huntington was also the sight of an awards breakfast where the All Southern Conference team was nam­ ed. ASU placed Valorie Whiteside and Jane Dalton on the first team while Kim Johnson and Beth Laney made the second team. "It is a great credit to this team that we placed four players on the AllConference tdam. Our two Seniors made the first team while the two women on the second team will be back next year. It is really great to see Jane get the credit she deserves from the whole league," Robinson said. Individually, Beth Laney led the Southern Conference in free throw shooting with a 77 percent average. Jane Dalton led the league in assists at 6.2 per game and 3-point shooting at 48 percent. Valorie Whiteside was named coplayer of the year along with Regina Kirk of UT-Chattanooga. The senior from Inman, S.C. led the league in scoring with 25.5 per game and was fifth in the league at 10 rebounds per contest. Whiteside's contribution to women's athletics in the Southern Conference will not soon be forgot­ ten. Coming off an impressive tourna­ ment as well as an imposing season, the Lady Mountaineers were looking forward to a postseason NCAA bid. Somehow, they were denied. Unknown to them, the game against Marshall was the last of the season and the final chapter in Valorie Whiteside's and Jane Dalton's careers. "The team we have is so unselfish and smart. We had no idea this was our last game, but since it was, there are 10 women who can feel good about what went on," Robinson said. "When the seniors think back on their last game, they have to feel warm. I think everybody on the team has to feel that way," she added. "Of course we are disappointed we did not get an NCAA bid, however, we are extremely proud of the ac­ complishments that this team has made," Robinson said. "I'll never forget this team. It is really special." The future is bright for the Lady Apps. Two championships attest to the quality of the team. "This is a huge time for us right now. People are seeing that ASU is for real. Our name is known; people who know basketball know ASU," Robinson said. Valorie Whiteside and Jane Dalton could leave not better legacy. tourney Old Timers honored S.C. By LOREN TRIVETTE First team, All-tournament selec­ tion Ramon Williams led VMI with 25 points on 11-of-15 shooting from the field. For the third time in four years, the ASU Mountaineers made an early first-round exit from the event. The sixth-seeded Apps were trying to com­ plete a three-game sweep of East Ten­ nessee State, however the Bucs managed to come away with a gruel­ ing 82-73 win. The turning point in the game came with just 55 seconds remaining in the first half. With ETSU holing a slim one-point advantage, a personal foul was called on freshman Rodney Peel. Peel and ETSU's Roy Donaldson exchanged blows and once the smoke had cleared, Peel had been ejected from the game and charged with a flagrant foul. Appalachian Staff Writer The ASU Wrestling team honored its alumni on Saturday, February 27, during Old Timer's Day by defeating the Citadel, 38-7. The Citadel forfeited at 118 giving ASU six points and the beginning of a strong lead. Senior Dave Maas defeated John Jones, 21-10, in his last home match bringing the score to 10-0. "It was a strange feeling knowing that this was my last home match, and soon to be the last of my college career. Just one more tournament and that's it, but it's been a great experience," Maas said. The Citadel earned two team points when Kevin LaPlante of ASU tied Randy Powell of the Citadel at 2-2. The first pin of the match happened with just 47 seconds left in the third period, with Bubba Garmon wrestling at 142. Wrestling at 150, senior Dwayne Renaker defeated Ed Semones by a score of 10-3, giving ASU a strong 21-2 lead. "I felt Saturday's match was not only important to the team because it was a conference meet and important for seeding in the tournament, but the match was an important victory emo­ tionally for the wrestling program as a whole," Renaker said. "It was exciting to see the support from all the Old Timers and I was touched by their concern for the future of our sport because Coach Donaldson hit both ends of the one-and-one and nailed both technical shots as well. Keith Jennings then nailed a three-pointer to give the Bucs seven points in 55 seconds and an eight-point halftime lead. "I thought the technical on Peel was a major swing because it turned out to be a seven-point play," ASU "The reason we lost this game tonight was because UT-C was a better team. I thought the key to the game was that 2'A to 3 minute stretch when we went scoreless in the first half. Joe Contatio coach Tom Apke said. "We lost his defense and he was on a roll offen­ sively. We could have used another three-point shooter late in the game." At the time of his ejection, Peel had 10 points on four-of-eight shooting. The best individual performance of the weekend was put out by Marshall guard Skip Henderson. In the Herd's opening-round 121-78 win over the Citadel, Henderson pumped in a tourney record 55 points while going 20 of 31 from the floor. The Herd was eliminated Saturday in a tight contest when UT-C's Fulse their big line-up. Even though we were down 4 points, I felt good because we were getting good shots plus we were getting used to their wide zone defense," Robinson said. The ASU shooting cooled significantly in the second half while Marshall was picking up their percen­ tage. "I was not worried. We feel like with the shooters we have, if we get the shots, they're going to fall," Robinson said. game, ASU's fortunes took a turn for the better. Junior forward Kim Johnson came alive and scored 12 out of ASU's last 16 points. "During the game, Kim had been slightly quiet. She was playing good ball for us, but the shots just weren't there. Then all of a sudden she got hot," Robinson said. "I told our kids to milk the clock, and I told Jane (Dalton) when it gets to 10 or 12 seconds to start looking. It was in Kim's hands with 8 seconds and I yelled for her to shoot and 'bam' 2 points. She was hot and wanted the ball," she added. When the buzzer finally sounded, the Lady Mountaineers had defeated Marshall twice on the road in less than a week, won their second con­ secutive Southern Conference Cham­ pionship, and proved ASU has one of the top flight women's basketball pro­ grams in the country. Valorie Whiteside again led all scorers with 24 points and also con­ tributed with 16 rebounds. Johnson finished with 16 points, and senior point guard Jane Dalton shot 5 of 7 from the floor to finish with 15 points. Mance finally received some of the recognition that he deserves for the outstanding effort of maintaining the excellence in ASU wrestling," he add­ ed. At 158, the Citadel won their final five points of the match when nationally ranked Clay Ogden of the Citadel won by a technical fall over senior Eddie Schapira. "I was hoping to be given a better final home match against Ogden, even though he is ranked 4th in the nation and I wanted to give the Old Timers a good note to remember me by," Schapira said. Mike Maxam, at 167, earned five points for the team with a technical fall over Andy Kerns, bringing the score to 26-7. At 177, James Lampkin defeated Mike Morand of the Citadel by a score of 4-3 and Chris Zwilling, at 190, pinned Joe Beck in 3:58. Rock Burch earned the final points by defeating Quay Little and bringing the score to a final of 38-7. In between the 150 and 158 weight class, the alumni were recognized and Coach Mance was honored with a plaque by the wrestling team. "Our wrestlers wrestled very good today, and 1 believe they showed the Old Timers that they really are a good team," Mance said. "It's nice to close the dual season with a good win over a good team and I'm sure our wrestlers will get themselves ready to represent ASU in the conference tournament."

Circulation Manager JODY BROWN, Editorial Production Manager TERESA CHALK, Advertising Lately, we've heard a lot about how students don't seem to care about ASU anymore, especially in terms of campus appearance. There's talk about vandalism, spray painting, lit­ ter, and other related problems that reduce the en­ joyment of our campus by marring its beauty. Many people, especially school administrators, wonder how students can be so insensitive to others' conerns. However, it seems to me that those same ad­ ministrators are demonstrating a remarkable lack of respect on their own part for the campus environ­ ment. I'm talking about the latest ASU construction ef­ fort: a new parking lot behind the Continuing Education center, which is being "built" out of land once set aside for environmental protection and study. Even aside from the destructive aspects, it seems rather foolish to site a new parking area that far from campus. There are already complaints about the parking areas in existence on the road to the Con Ed center, including concerns about the safety of the steep road in winter, the possibility of vandalism and theft to cars, and the safety of drivers going to and from the areas. The new lOVi acre construction site is even farther away, and it appears to me that the only parking problem it will help solve is that of the Con Ed center, not of the students. I'd sooner cram my car into the mud at Hunt's than go all the way up there and have to walk all the way back. The University apparently didn't do enough research before beginning this project, and not just in terms of its use as a parking area, either. No of­ ficial, it seems, bothered to check into whether the land was being used by anyone before planning out this construction (perhaps they believe, as do many other wrong and misguided people, that woods are no good to anyone unless they're chopped down and developed to death). In looking at the chain of events as discussed in the Watauga Democrat article of February 24, it seems obvious to me the parking lot proposal was "railroaded" through too quickly for any depart­ ment or group to have a chance ot stopping or modi­ fying it. The Biology Department was not even in­ formed of the plan until November 1987, and con­ struction was already under way before February 1988, less than three months later. There was no time at all for environmental impact studies, watershed damage studies, or for anyone to organize a commit­ tee of departments using the area to oversee the development. The administration obviously does not care what their new parking lot will do; but I think they should start. The 80-90 acres of the environmental studies area is used by many of the departments on campus for Production Manager Possible solution to parking issue? The plan would be effective in the fall of 1988 and require every ASU student to pay an annual transportation fee of $20.00. In addition, a $50.00 annual fee will be charged to any student who parks on campus at any time. • Th!Sin°m?oe°"S- ^hyffould students ^ required to pay an addi­ tional $70.00 to security after paying numerous parking tickets? This idea is especially unfair to those students who never park on campus WhyShr^hfe StUdClUS h3Ve t0 pay for other students' parking? ' The $50.00 fee is particularly unfair to off-campus students who seldom need to park on campus. Who would enforce these regulations at night? It would be difficult to find student security guards to work nights when they are already obligated to duty during the day. It is hard to believe that security has not generated enough revenue from parking tickets to fund necessary campus expansions. Faculty and staff are not exempt from the proposal; however they will not pay quite as much as students. A $50.00 vehicle registration fee will be charged annually to faculty and staff. It will be interesting to see how security presents this proposal to the university community. Now is the time to voice our opinions on this subject and stop the implementation of this proposal. If you don't vote, you can't complain Before spring break, SGA elections were held and 2303 students par­ ticipated in selecting the new student body leaders. While this 21 percent voter turnout is a slight improvement over last year, it only represents a small percentage of our campus. This is pitiful considering the increased time period and number of polls available to students. During spring break, the Super Tuesday Presidential Primaries took place. North Carolinians should have felt privileged to participate in this event; however, voter turnout was low. Oftentimes people who strongly support a candidate beiFore elections find excuses for not voting. The only adequate way to support a can­ didate is to follow through with a vote. The primary left Democrats without a true frontrunner. The Democratic National Convention will be crucial in determining the nominee. Before the primary, various Republican candidates appeared to have strong support; however, Bush supporters made the largest showing at the polls. Supporters of other candidates have no right to complain about primary results if they did not bother to vote. Furthermore, ASU students who did not vote have no right to complain about election results. In November, people need to make a conscious effort to vote. Our nation's future will be determined by this election. BLOOM COUNTY Paula Childers "hands-on" experience, mainly in the scientific fields such as biology and geology. The area is ideal for studying plant growth patterns, effects of water drainage and erosion, and the progression of field to forest. It is small enough to look at as a whole en­ vironmental area, and yet large enough to have mqny smaller ecosystems operating within its boun­ daries. Many of these smaller ecosystems could be damaged or even destroyed by even the smallest changes in water drainage patterns. Water flows as the land lays; plant life grows according to the water supply. Creek hollows are formed by water flowing down from above, and the most "above" area is the ridgetop—therefore, a valley's drainage pattern is often primarily determined by the lay of the ridge­ top (please see diagram.) Changing the ridgetop, as in leveling it for a parking lot and knocking down the trees, could potentially change the layout of the entire valley below, especially in terms of plant life. -> DtRe^rvoMs OF WATER, DRA\WA<5-€_ Today's students more apathetic than ever Rv FRir n viii i CD By ERIC D. MILLER Appalachian Columnist If one were to compare a college student from the 1960's with a similar student from the 1980's, what would be the most important difference? Well, perhaps one would first notice the similarities. Both students seem to enjoy using drugs, for exam­ ple marijuana and alcohol. Both students also receive a liberal arts education. But quickly the differences become obvious. The style of dress, the music, the lingo and the hairstyles have all changed quite a bit since the 1960's. All these things seem secon­ dary to me, though; in my opinion the , biggest difference is in the attitudes of by Berke Breathed ggp & the students. In my mind, there is nothing more dangerous to the future of our society than the absolutely apathetic attitude of most of today's college students. There was a time, I hear, when college students cared about what was going on in the world! When students would actually hold protest marches in order to fight for a cause! As far as I can tell the principle issue for today's college student is where the next party is going to be. Now, there is nothing wrong with par­ ties, but couldn't we use our brains for just a little while, between parties and exams, to actually think about some issues affecting our lives? My purpose here is not to change anybody's mind about anything; it is simply to ask my generation to form an opinion. If we allow those individuals in a position of power to make all our governmental decisions for us, shouldn't we at least try to keep up with and understand the deci­ sions they make? Now, I do realize I am probably reaching the wrong group of people with this article. After all, if you care Criticize he was an h n s o e t MAN... A RECENT MAN...

Obviously, those 10 acres could have an impact on all the surrounding acres. THAT'S the big deal. Even if the departments can find other places to conduct their research and teachings, what about the students who use the area as a retreat from school pressures, as a resource for wilderness recreational activities, for any number of purposes? I myself have spent a lot of time hiking the trails crisscrossing the area; it felt good just to be outside, away from car exhaust, away from homework, away from the party next door. Walking is good exercise, and dur­ ing my trips, I learned about basic field botany from observing and an Audubon Field Guide. Last but not least, we as students and young adults are constantly being warned of the dangers of using partying, drinking and drugs as escape mechanisms to relieve stress. We are told to exercise, especially outdoors in fresh air. However, in the last few years, the administration has supported legaliz­ ing beer in Boone and made a move to destroy part of the nearest area available for outdoor recreation. What are we supposed to think? If the university is to be improved in terms of beauty and living condi­ tions, it's time our administrators started setting a better example. If we are supposed to be learning to take responsibility for our actions, then we need people who act responsibly to learn from. A dKOTHBR. By MICHAEL R. COOKE Appalachian Columnist This section of the newspaper is intended for the expression of opin­ ions. Mainly the articles deal with issues of concern to students of higher education (e.g. federal funding, park­ ing, politics, the environment.) But basically all of the articles are personal articulations, someone who is trying to say what they feel and hopes others feel as well. Both this and last semester, I've heard a lot of accusations about the opinion page articles as well as others in the newspaper, accusations that the articles were biased and egocentric, that they gave unfair coverage to one side of an issue. I think the accusers are grasping the point of these articles, but they do not understand their point. Yes, articles and opinions are biased and personal, but that is precisely what they are sup­ posed to be. Elsewhere in the paper are examples of true journalistic reporting, fact-based accounts that are unbiased and accurate. The opin­ ion page articles are personal statements, reflections, or ideas, and are not meant to represent reporting or the amalgamated opinion of enough to read this, then you prob­ ably aren't one of the people I am asking to change. The students to whom this article is addressed are the kind who say things like, "What presidential election; who's run­ ning?" or "What's SGA? Why should I care?" By now you are probably saying, "How can I become more involved? Does my opinion really count?" The answer is yes, of course, and there are many ways in which you can make your opinions influence others. The primary (pardon the pun) way to influence your government is to vote for candidates with opinions and ideas similar to yours. So why not research the candidates in the upcom­ ing elections, and see which one you agree with the most? The same holds true for all elections, including SGA elections at ASU. Find out about the candidates, and then go out and vote for your favorite. Another, more direct way to become involved is to be active in SGA. After all, if you don't like the way things are being done, then the best way to change it is to do it yourself. Or if you have an interest in the media, and don't mind some criticism, you can work for The Appalachian, or for WASU. Not everyone at ASU is apathetic. Recently I wrote an article entitled K "Parking Problems National Issue."' Although I stand behind the opinions stated in the article, I must admit that my principle goal in writing it was to recipitate a response. It did. I want to sincerely thank everyone who wrote in expressing an opinion: at least some­ one out there does care. So, in conclusion I would say that apathy is a major problem in these times, and is present here at ASU. But there are those who do care, and I am quite glad; for although our main purpose as students is to learn, we also must grow as people if we are to be leaders of the future. I probably would never have writ­ ten this article except for the response my last one gathered. I had started to think there was no one out there who cared. Thank god there is, and don't stop, because there is no difference between writing something which no one reads, and talking to myself in an empty room. argument, not opinion everyone on campus. People who write for this page try to flesh out the sides of an issue, pre­ sent an argument, inform students about problems, or just say what's on their minds. They are not trying to enforce or trumpet those ideas just to make everyone angry, they are trying to provoke thought by the reader. The reader can agree or disagree, it is their own prerogative, but at least they know what the writer was think­ ing and perhaps have some informa­ tion to form an opinion of their own. The focus is on issues important to students, and one of the only ways to present and discuss them is to print individual opinions. There are 10,000+ students at ASU and this newspaper is one of the few commonalities we share. When I write an article, I don't have the expressed intention of seeing how many people don't like what I say. I am interested in presenting a well-written expression of what 1 have to say, and if someone takes excep­ tion of that opinion, they have both a right and an obligation to write back and express their side. My opinion is of no more or less value than anyone else's, but I (like other writers) hope what I write is worth reading and of use. I'm making a large assumption just writing this article that my explana­ tion of the opinion page's function and purposes is shared by others on the paper. I have no way of knowing. But this is my opinion of what it is, and my purpose is not to chastise those who are offended or critical of it but to clarify, provide information, and point out a problem I see. These are often the purposes of other writers I read on this page, writers who are often unfairly criti­ cized. If you as the reader see an arti­ cle that is obviously biased or seerns to invite criticism because .ts arguments are weak, write a lette' to the paper. That's how I first got started writing for the paper. Feedback is very important to let writers know they are being read, to point out opposing sides to an issue, and tell the writer what they're doing wrong in making an argument. But just remember one thing—there is a large difference between criticizing the way a writer makes their argu­ ment, and criticizing simply because you don't like their opinion and their argument. �THE A PPA LA CHI AN.

All students are welcome and encouraged to attend. Students protested the presence of CIA recruiters on campus last week. CIA recruiters held an informational meeting last Wednesday night in IG Greer to discuss employment opportunities with students. Protesters shouted angry comments during the meeting and assembled outside IG Greer. They also handed out pamphlets concerning alleged il­ legalities commited by the CIA during covert operations. I think that some of the operations that they are involved in are illegal" ASU student Lauren Snipes said. Snipes said she feels students should be informed of the activities of organizations that come on campus since students support this institution financially. Recruiters met with protest again Thursday when they interviewed students for positions with the agency. "I think that there is enough doubt about what the CIA is doing, someone needs to say something when they come here." Student protester WASU Adds New Program WASU is running a new show entitled "I Wanna Be Heard." The program is an editorial show representing the speaker's opinion about whatever is on his mind. If you have a gripe, comment, or sug­ gestion about anything on campus, in Boone, across America, or around the world, you can record it and have it aired on WASU. For additional information contact Becky Higbee at WASU (262-3170). Nominations Being Taken For Landlord Award The Off-Campus Affairs Committee is accepting I nominations for the "Outstanding Landlord Award" which will be presented at the Rental Fair on April 8. Students wishing to nominate their landlord or property owner should bring their nominations by room 20 Workman Hall by March 24. For further| information contact Gary Greene at 262-2265. Student protesters handed out pamphlets in front of the Career Planning and Placement Center where the interviews were held. "I think that there is enough doubt about what the CIA is doing, someone needs to say something when they come here," one student protester said. Some students had mixed feelings about the presence of the CIA on campus, however there were some students who were in favor of CIA recruitment. "The CIA must be able to recruit on college campuses so that all students can become fully aware of the functions and duties it performs for our country." Chris McDermoit ASU student "Although the methods of the CIA might seem dubious to the rest of us, the security of this coun­ try depends upon the type of intelligence the CIA is able to gather regardless of where they might find it," ASU student Peter Johnson said. "The CIA must be able to recruit on college campuses so that all students can become fully aware of the functions and duties it performs for our country," ASU student Chris McDermoit said. Captain Paul Isaacs of ASU Security said the protesters caused no major problems and there were no arrests. Protesters had originally intended to picket, but Security prohibited them from do­ ing so without a permit. Last week's protests at UNC-Chapel Hill were more serious, however. Student protests resulted in CIA recruiters leaving town because of the ac­ tions of the protesters. . m §s$ r Appalachian Staff Writer ASU Food Services are planning a complete renovation of the Bavarian Inn and the addition of a new food facility near Stadium Heights. "The Bavarian Inn will close at the end of its business day on April 28. We will begin construction on the 29th," Director of Food Services Ron Dubberly said. "Construe tion is scheduled to be completed August 7." "It's going to be a real nice facility," he added. "As of right now we are planning on calling the new project the Food Court, because that's basically the concept we are us­ ing. A food court like you would see in a mall. There will be several different areas in which you may choose dif­ ferent type of foods." The entire area of the dining room will be taken out. The serving area will be extended to where the microwave sits and across the dining room to the wall by the hallway. On that side a sweet shop will be added. The new sweet shop will not be as extensive nor contain as much variety as the Sweet Shop in the Student Union, but it will have baked goods. Service to the sweet shop will be made available through the dining room and through the Food Court. Where the hot-wheel is now, there will be a fast food area. On one end there will be an international bar. Possibly a Chinese stir-fry, a taco bar, and a mexican bar. Next to this will be a hamburger, hotdog, and chicken-filet Food Services plans renovations See RENOVATIONS Page 3 Campus expansion plans,damage environment?

"They (the administration) reduced the size of the parking lot and changed the drainage pattern around the site to reduce erosion," he said. While a compromise was reached for the pre­ sent, the future of the environmental studies area remains uncertain. Vice-Chancellor for Business Affairs Ned Trivette said that the area has been targeted for future development. "We've had a private consultant from Durham look at the area, and he's identified 2 or 3 sites for future developments," Trivette said. He added that a Greek village, a new food facility, a road to Highway 105, a parking deck, and other buildings could possibly be built in the area. "This is all very long-range, however. Nothing has been firmly set," he said. Neufeld expressed concern over the long-range plans.

Most of the problems in the B.I. are from the type of concept of the service. It was designed 25 years ago and has not been changed since. I really believe the new project is going to be a great addition for the students. I think they're really going to enjoy the new concepts and foods." We hired a food consultant to help us to design the facility in a way that we can put a quality, hot product on your plate, versus having to cook it ahead of time and set it on that wheel to spin around and around. I'm ex­ cited about the new project, it has come through student comment over' the years.

Then I left for a secret meeting of the much dreaded Red-Headed Columnists' Syndicate th e S ; ™ a fsgustin8 Phenomenon; drunken freshmen.

We resolved to dye their hair and complete our monopoly. We also argued about whether it s true what they jay about redheads, stopping when we discovered that we didn t have the foggiest notion what they say At h°Ti J™"? tUbi,ng banging down seven lights of stairs; the top end was attached to a funnel and the bottom end was attached to a student- beer was involved. I shouted warnings about the dangers of teenage alcoholisr^i and nearly drowned in the backwash. In the hall I smelled a substance sometimes known as party tobacco, which gives me a headache; I went to the RD's room. There the smell was stronger and no one answered the door; I thought I heard someone saying "Wow heavy ganja dude," but my keen reporter's instinct told me he was off persecuting the offenders. I went to my room to write something artistic; a story, a novel a plav a letter to my mother. I was telling her about my foot trouble when the building was rocked by an explosion. Being a crusading reporter, I decided to investigate. In the hall I slipped in a pool of beer, hit my head and passed out. When I came to, it was 10 p.m. the next day and I was covered with a truly gargantuan pile of beer cans and empty pizza boxes. Uninjured except for a major concussion, I dug out of the pile and headed off to continue the investigation, noting that the halls looked like the streets of Beruit. With a ghuddstv I realized that I was trapped for the weekend, the only softer person in a party dorm from hell. In the lobby, I noticed the RA bound and gagged; he was being used as an altar in a pagan ritual. And they were sneaking women in behind his back. I had a vision of Spuds McKenzie; the pagans/drunks chanted "party hardy, party hardy, party hardy." Sick with disgust and a major concussion, I skipped the warning about teenage devil worship and left the lobby. I was soon met by revelers singing the ASU school song, "Stairway to Heaven," who called me King Tut and accused Santa Claus of being my illegimate father. I pulled out the obligatory reporter's cigar and lit it to drive them away with the fumes; instead, I got sicker and they laughed at my resemblance to a cross between Burl Ives and Orson Wells. I futiley tried to point out my sveltness in comparison to those gentlemen, hen I pointed out to my tormentors that I was larger than any of them, and they should give me a few reasons not to squash them like grapes; overcome by my superior logic, they retreated. Invigorated by another triumph for huge journalists everywhere, I came across the infamous American Gigolo; the orgy he was throwing had spilled over mto the hall. I kicked one of his pink flamingoes and reminded him of the dangers of teenage promiscuity; he pointed out that reporters are supposed to be hard drinkers. Agreeing, I abandoned my guest to drink myself into a stupor on cheap rootbeer in my room. Then my concussion kicked back in and I had a vision of c° umnist Lewis Grizzard, who laughed at me and disappeared. hen ASU security came; it seems that the explosion I had heard was Lovill orm ending a shaving cream fight with the guys on the fourth floor employ"ig somewhat drastic measures. Hell hath no fury, my insightful, keen reporter's instincts told me. I attempted to implicate my editors, since they were evil spawn of Satan, e cops arrested me instead, sneering at my press credentials. °, being a good reporter, I spilled my guts; I revealed my sources, turned ver my notes and made a tremendous bootlicking pathetic snitch of myself. one is now under marshall law. I circumvent the guards by capitalizing on y resemblance to ZZ Top and promising to loan them my car keys; fat ct)ance of that. Too bad about everyone else, but freedom of the press is essential; here in °ne, we've maintained it. one, my beat; gosh, I love journalism. ROTC is more than boot camp and army fatigues. In February, the ASU Pershing Rifle drill team traveled to New Orleans to march in the Mardi Gras Parades. The squad participated in the Zeus (11 miles) and Poseidon (5.5) parades. The famed Mardi Gras parades are known the nation over for the wild and crazed masses that attend each year. Each parade has a different theme and various New Orleans organizations sponsor floats each year. Some parades contain floats, others just marchers. There are also flat-bed truck floats. Usually there are four or five parades a day during Mardi Gras. The Pershing Rifles have been invited to march for the past four years. "They did a super job," Captain Raul Salinas, club advisor said, "I have members who have only been on the team for three weeks and learned the routine well enough to perform." During the parades the team per­ formed the routines they had been working to perfect all year. The club practiced five or six hours a week while carrying a ten pound weapon. Some cadets also work on their own to improve skills and polish their performance. During the Poseidon parade a TV crew filmed the team as they per­ formed. The group was also on MTV. Mardi Gras was not all work for the team. During their stay in New Orleans they visited the famed French Quarter and walked down Bourbon Street. "It is a real sea of humanity," said Greg Jicha, cadet commander. "You've got some of everything down there." For Karen Monday, a freshman cadet, it was the first trip to Mardi Gras. "It was great and I had a lot of fun." Beth McPherson, had a better time at Mardi Gras this year after going last February. "It was different the second time and more fun knowing what to expect. I think it got the whole club a lot closer," McPherson said. The club stayed at Jackson Barracks and had a pizza party, watched parades, visited jazz clubs ROTC Pershing Rifles on parade in New Orleans and ate in area restaurants. The drill team pays for one meal for the cadets while they are there. The group was at a steak house preparing to order when a grease fire broke out. The restaurant started to burn down and after the fire was put out, the firemen posed for pictures with the cadets. "All those people are just crazy," McPherson said. The consensus among cadets seemed that it was great fun. "It was an experience. You have to go there once," Monday said. "For some cadets it may be the first and last time they visit the city but it was an eye opening experience for them," Salinas said. The parades provide good experience for the nationals. The ASU drill team has been going to the nationals for the past two years. Amazingly, they won first place the first time they attended.

Don't, however, con­ fuse soft-spoken with lack of backbone. "I'm not too forceful with people, but I don't give in," Schoonmaker said. Schoonmaker has grown up with an interest in government. Her father is a political science professor at Wake Forest University and her mother is an attorney. She turned her interest into activity last year when she became an SGA senator. "Initially, I became involved because I wanted to know more of what my parents had done," she said. "But I enjoyed being a senator and enjoyed working with people so much that I applied to be a chairperson." , Schoonmaker has also been involv­ ed with RSA, the Young Democrats, the Appol Corps and the Watauga Youth Network. See SCHOONMAKER Page 7 "For some cadets it may be the first and last time they visit the city but it was an eye opening experience for them." Captain Raul Salinas Club Advisor There is a lot of hard work involved with preparing for the nationals. Unlike some other teams, the Pershing Rifles use real weapons. This cuts down on their movement because of the weapons' weight. "A lot of other drill teams use the fake ones (3 lbs.) but we use real weapons (10 lbs.). I like them better," McPherson said. Unlike some drill teams who don't llc^^e allc\it__females to perform, The PerWtig Rifles is 50 percent female. "We're a team and there is no discrimination at all," Salinas said. "The girls get a lot of hassles (especially in the nationals) but I love to be around the guys," McPherson said. In past years, tension was high when it came time for nationals. "I was really scared but it was a great feeling when we won. We really worked hard for it," McPherson said. Each year the nationals are held in a different area in the United States and are judged by different branches of the armed forces. This year the nationals will be held in Washington, D.C. This meet will be judged by the Presidential Honor Guard. "Our team has the potential and the dedication to be number one. They're going to do it again," Salinas said.

Assistant Director of Alumni Affairs Todd Campbell Former SGA president Todd Campbell is back in the academic community at ASU. Campbell, who graduated in May 1987, has taken the position of Assistant Director of Alumni Affairs. Campbell is enjoying his job and is glad to be back on campus. "The job is really interesting because I'm working with young alumni. I'm really glad to be back here at ASU working with such learn­ ed professionals," he said. Campbell attributes much of his success to his SGA experience while he was a student at ASU. "My experience was invaluable because, now that I'm back on cam­ pus, the people and students I met help me locate information and con­ tact people that I might have other­ wise found difficult. My SGA experience was my biggest strength coming into this job," he said. During his senior year at ASU and the year following his graduation, Campbell's position as SGA president earned him a job in the Cass Ballenger campaign. "I loved working with Cass Ballenger. I was lucky enough to be able to run the county campaign here in Watauga County my senior year, and the success of that campaign led to the full-time job as a Congressional Assistant after I graduated," he said. Campbell has aspirations for a political career of his own one day also, although he is unsure which direction that career may go. "The thought of working in government or public service has definitely entered my mind and is surely not out of the question. I believe I would enjoy holding office, that would be fine. But even if I worked for someone else like Ballenger, I'm sure I'd enjoy that too," he said. In his more immediate future here at ASU, though, Campbell has some goals for his new position. "My number one goal is to reach .out to young alumni, like myself, and make them feel good about Appalachian State University," he said. "I want them to feel proud that they are ASU graduates. One of my first priorities is to organize a Young Alumni Day in the fall." See ALUMNUS Page 7 RA's to be chosen Eager applicants finish selection process By LAURA PHILPOT Special to The Appalachian Just about this time every year you can find Resident Assistants, Resident Directors, and Area Coordinators pulling their hair out and up to their elbows in paperwork. Say the word interview and any of them will scream "Thank God it's over!" RA selection can be fun for the interview team but can also be stressful for the candidate. Prospective RA's apply as early as December for positions the following year. Each applicant submits an application and is required to have three evaluations filled out by employers, other RA's, or a professor and after the initial screening of the applications the candidates go through two phases of the interview process. The first phase consists of a series of questions concerning the job and job situations. Questions such as "Why do you want to be an RA?" or "What would you do to handle a cer­ tain roommate conflict?" and "What programming ideas do you have for the hall?" These questions are asked by an RD, two RA's and a member of RSA. They are designed to discover the qualities and job-related skills of each candidate. The next step is phase two which contains questions pertaining to the candidate's leadership style and expectations of the job. These ques­ tions are asked by an RD and two RA's and are designed to find out more about the person. The interview team tries to make the interview process as relaxed and comfortable as possible. Susan Wiesler, Resident Director of Eggers, commented on the success of the selection process. She said that it worked very well for her last year. "I ended up with a super staff," she said. She said that, in looking for people to fill positions, that "there is no one best quality," because it is the com­ bination of qualities that is looked for. One thing that she personally looks for in a prospective RA is honesty. "I think that it's important in any job," she said. Interview teams joke and cut up in the interview to make candidates feel more at ease with the process. It is important in the interview to make the person feel comfortable so that he can be himself. After the second phase of the inter­ views the candidates have a short informal meeting with an area coor­ dinator. This is so the AC can put a name with a face and get a chance to meet the applicants. Now the process is over and the waiting begins for the candidates and the paperwork for the AC'S. On March 14th, 150 candidates and many returning RA's will find out if they have received a position and where they will be working. There are only 115 positions and a lot are taken by returning RA's. �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDA Y, MARCH I, 1988 By TRAVIS TART Appalachian Staff Writer Last year, the Appalachian State University Post Office delivered three and half a million pieces of student mail. In addition, hundreds of thousands of pieces of campus mail, and bulk mail were delivered. A lot of time and effort go into making sure that every person and department at ASU gets their mail. "The mail is r times, so 10.C 40,000 and this Ralph Yates is the Post Office Manager here at ASU, he started here in 1967. "Incoming mail is picked up at the Boone Post Office at 7 a.m. The mail is then separated, and University mail is delivered to 160 departments by three permanent route carriers," Yates said. In the past, the troupe has per­ formed for such dignitaries as Prince Phillip and the Queen of England, and King Hassan II of Morocco. They have toured in Austria, Germany, France, Denmark, Jamaica, Sweden, the USSR and many of the African He added that two permanent workers open the contract station at 8 am., and one worker mans the for­ warding system. We try to have all the first class mail sorted and into the boxes by eleven-thirty, and that's only three hours after we receive it," Yates said. There are 11,200 boxes at the ASU Post Office. All of them are served on a daily basis. The post office has* eleven full-time, permanent workers—and sixteen part-time stu­ dent workers. Plans for expansion are in the works. "We're adding 660 boxes that we hope to have installed by the fall semester," Yates said. He also said that, due to the large volume of mail the post office handles, plans are being made to buy a sorting machine. nations.

And when he shook my hand, I thought I'd never get it back. So there I was, face-to-knee with the big man on campus, wondering how I was going to relate American Literature to The Hulk. But then he pulled out a can of Orange Cappuccino. I was shocked! Could ir be that this tough jock liked its delicate taste? And when Bone Crusher brought out the bone hina, I was beyond belief Reading the expression on my face, he said,"What can I say? I like it. The Cafe Francais is pretty good, too." Well, who's going to argue, I thought.

Winkler's Creek Road 264-3617 �THE APPALACHIAN THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY, MARCH I, 1988 SPORTS Lady Mountaineers clinch titl Paul Carroll The Appalachian State University Lady Mountaineer basketball team is the regular season Southern Con­ ference champion. Linda Robinson's Lady Apps wrestled the crown from the Marshall University Lady Herd by defeating them on their home court 77-73. Last Wednesday before the Mar­ shall game, the Lady Mountaineers played their final home game of the year against non-conference rival Winthrop. ASU's women refused to allow their seniors to go out with anything less than a spectacular game. Behind great team play, ASU crushed the Eagles 104-51. Before the game, Coach Robinson and ASU saluted the seniors on the team. Playing in their final home games were Jane Dalton and Valorie Whiteside. Next year, the Lady Apps will miss their floor general and their inside scoring machine. The game against Winthrop opened quickly for ASU as the Lady Moun­ taineers ripped off the first 8 points of the contest capped by a 19-foot jumper by Kim Johnson. The scoring run was kept alive for six minutes when, after a 12-foot baseline shot by Debbie Swicegood, the Lady Apps led 22-5. Marshall's herd is top tourney pick The Southern Conference basketball season is drawing to a close. ASU's men and women both had fantastic seasons. Heading into their respective tournaments, the Mountaineers and the Lady Mountaineers can look forward to a real chance of winning. Tom Apke's men have exceeded all preseason expectations. The Apps show­ ed what sort of team we can expect in the future by getting better every game. The regular season was dominated by Marshall, but below them, there were four teams that over the long haul proved they were capable of challenging for a berth in the championship game next Sunday: Furman, Davidson, ASU, and UT-C. The favorite to win it all must be Marshall, but for a darkhorse'pick take ASU. The Lady Mountaineers are the cream of women's basketball in the Southern Conference. After winning the regular season title with a convincing win on the road at Marshall, Linda Robinson's women will be, should be, and are the favorites to take it all. Not only are the ASU women creating a stir in their own neck of the woods, they are starting to receive national recognition. Look for the Lady Apps to garner more than one vote in this week's AP poll. If the Lady Mountaineers can manage to win the SC tournament, a NCAA bid is in the cards. Let s hear it for the USOC and their panic button. If there were one person I would never want associated with the Olympics it would be George Steinbrenner. The New York Yankees still have class, but no thanks are due Steinbrenner If he does for the Olympics what he has done for the Yankees, then we can ex­ pect to see athletes who fail to bring home medals lose their citizenship. The Yankees are loaded this year. If new-old-new manager Billy Martin can have a healthy Rich Dotson and Rick Rhoden, plus 10-12 victories from Ron Guidry, the American League Eastern Division should go their way. The addition of Jack Clark should take the pressure to produce off Dave Winfield allowing him to play at his own comfortable level. All this is just in the event that Steinbrenner leaves the team alone during the season. If he chooses to meddle, don't expect a Yankee finish higher than third. Can any NBA team beat the Lakers? No. In a seven game series, no one even comes close. There is a second tier in the NBA composed of the Celtics, Pistons, Hawks, and Rockets who on any one night are capable of beating the Lakers. In a series however, they all pale in comparison. If Pat Riley can keep his team healthy, the NBA will have its long sought after repeat champion. owners and Pro basketball, would someone please buy the nu^f j3 i Philadelphia 76'ers from Harold Katz. It was not long ago that the word dynasty' could be used in the same sentence with the Sixers. Now, 'also-ran' is more appropriate. Steinbrenner may be a busybody, but he would never make the personnel noves that Katz routinely makes. Katz had the first pick in the draft a few years ago and now has nothing to show for it. At this point in the game, Winthrop made their only serious run at ASU. Eight straight points by a charged Eagle squad closed the gap to seven points. The Lady Mountaineers dash­ ed all of Winthrop's hopes by going on a nine point run of their own. After a terrific feed from Beth Laney, Valorie Whiteside converted on an in­ side bucket to make the score 35-19, ASU. Appalachian applied offensive pressure throughout the remainder of the half, and with 12 seconds remain­ ing, Jane Dalton hit on a long range three-point bomb to make the halftime score ASU 52, Winthrop 30. The first 7:55 of the second half was dominated by ASU's full court defensive pressure. Against a hustling Lady Mountaineer starting five, Win­ throp could only manage two points allowing ASU to vault to an immense 71-32 lead. "We wanted to make Winthrop beat our full court zone press. They found they had no wing to pass to and it provided them with a bit of trouble," Robinson said. Over the last 10 minutes, ASU's bench came alive to expand the lead ASU edged out in overtime By SABRINA SELLS Appalachian Sports Editor In an exciting overtime bout be­ tween the Davidson Wildcats and the ASU Mountaineers last Saturday night in Davidson,-the Wildcats slip­ ped past the Apps by the score of 74-72. The victory broke the threeway tie for third place held by David­ son, ASU, and ETSU when both ASU and ETSU lost on Saturday. Davidson controlled the opening tip, but both teams were cold from the floor, with the Mountaineers missing their first three. Finally after almost two minutes of play, Mike Ginn, replacing Jeff Himes who was sick with the flu, scored the first bucket for Davidson. ASU's Ben Miller soon retaliated when he scored after stealing the ball, and the score was knotted at two. During the next five minutes of play, the score stayed close and the lead changed hands several times, but neither team played well. ASU made three of their first nine shots and Davidson made only three of their first 12. The game turned around for the Mountaineers when seniors Daryl Person and Jerry Holmes came off the bench with 14 minutes of play re­ maining in the first half. Person con­ nected on two back-to-back threepointers, and Holmes scored after an offensive rebound and was fouled. After Holmes made the free throw, ASU had a seven-point lead at 19-12. The Wildcats fought back with the help of Derek Rucker, though. Good defense by the Cats and a couple of costly turnovers by the Mountaineers chipped away at the Apps' lead. With one minute remaining in the half, Ben Miller was charged with a technical foul when he held on to the rim after an alley-oop pass by Peel " failed. The technical sparked the Cats' play, and when the halftime buzzer sounded, ASU's seven-point lead had been whittled to one. The late charge by Davidson brought the score to 30-29 when the teams entered the locker rooms. When the teams took the floor for second-half action, the Wildcat* con- Valorie Whiteside and finally end the game with the 104-51 score. "Our goal was to play as hard and as well as possible. This team was go­ ing to give the crowd the type of per­ formance that Jane (Dalton) and Val (Whiteside) could remember. We were not going to allow a poor perfor­ mance," Robinson said. The two outgoing seniors, Dalton and Whiteside, scored 14 and 27 points, respectively. In addition, Whiteside hauled in 12 boards, and Dalton dished out 10 assists. "Tonight, any combination we played worked hard and played well. This was the type of performance that Jane Dalton ~ wt > showed that the team of the future is a good one," Robinson said. "Val Morgan played the best home game of her season," Robinson said. Morgan finished the night with 10 points and two assists. "Tonya Lemmon played excellent­ ly. She threw a couple of great skip passes and saw the floor as well as she has in her career," Robinson said. Lemmon finished with 3 rebounds and 4 points. "I'm very proud of our basketball team. This is our second 20-win season in a row. Plus tonight, they showed their appreciation for Dalton and Whiteside. This team really respects Val and Jane and gave them a game tonight that in years to come, they can look back on with a smile on their faces," Robinson said. The Southern Conference regular season was decided last Sunday in Huntington, W. V. as the Lady Moun­ taineers beat the Lady Herd 77-73. The game started in Marshall's favor when with 1:44 gone in the game, Lea Ann Parsley sank a fivefoot jumper in the lane to put the Lady Herd on top. ASU had trouble finding the basket in the first few minutes. "Marshall did something we didn't expect. They came out in a 2-3 zone, and they started both of their big women. In the back they were trying to pack it and their wings were trying to extend our wings," Robinson said. With 7:44 left in the first half, Jane Dalton hit a three-pointer from the top of the key to put the Lady Apps ahead for the first time, 21-20. Behind the play of sparkplug Jenelle Stephenson, Marshall reasserted their first half dominance and with 2:37 left in the half, the Lady Herd had an eight-point lead. The Lady Mountaineers tightened their belts and held Marshall scoreless over the last few minutes to close the halftime gap to 32-35. A key to the late momentum chang­ ing run was superior rebounding. "We told our kids just to make sure you box out a body as hard as you can because they (the officials) were let­ ting the kids play. We had some wounded," Robinson said. The second half started much better for the Lady Apps. Kim Johnson, who had been held scoreless in the first half, came alive and canned two shots in only 28 seconds to put ASU up 36-35. r "Kim came through hi shots in the second half- he hi buckets," Robinson said' ?he ii forward finished points and four rebound, Marshall and ASU wereIockec ' 8 the midd the half. The Lady Mountaii ^"S3W.fba"'e dur n ;eKrn«'h''«s .s., the team.

"Even more this year, everyboc trying to key in on Val. When Val in foul trouble the whole team kn they have to rise.

Led by Deb Swicegood, Laney and Johnson, Lady Apps went out to insurmountable seven point lead "When we needed , buck Debbie Swicegood was there It v always a bucket in the big tim< Robinson said. The final score of the game is i indicative of the final minutes Marshall hit two desperation bask at the end. This was a super win. It is great beat a team like Marshall, b especially on their home floor. T1 certainly makes us feel better abo playing the tournament Huntington." "At this point, I think that metita ly we're a tougher team Nxv Marshall.

By defeating UT-Chattanooga ai Marshall on consecutive weekenc the Lady Mountaineers must be co sidered the favorite in the upcomii tournament.

The next match for the Lady Mountaineers was at midnight Friday, and they tied Methodist College 2-2, with Kathy Healy scoring both goals. Saturday morning the Lady Apps played Berry College, and the results of the match were familiar, with Kim Oberle scoring the only goal for the Lady Mountaineers in a 1-1 tie. In the final preliminary match, ASU lost to Duke University, 3-2, with Carson Satterfield and Shelley Oberle scoring for the Lady Apps. In the playoffs, ASU met UNCAsheville in the first round. The Lady Apps scored their first win of the tournament, 2-1, with goals from Shelley Oberle and Kathy Healy They advanced to the semifinal round with the win, where they lost again to the Duke team, 2-0.

Apps sign football recruits Appalachian State Head Coach Sparky Woods has announced that 18 high school football players have signed national letters-of-intent with the Mountaineers for the 1988 season. "We went after some big players, due to the fact we were losing so many and we are pleased that we were able to sign several," Woods said. "We concentrated on players in North Carolina and half of our recruits are in-state players." "We were concerned about our kicking game, because both our kicker and punter will be seniors, and we recruited someone who can handle both 'hp punting chores and nlacements. We wanted to add Ben Miller tinued to roll. The Mountaineers, on the other hand, came out playing physical defense that resulted in early foul trouble for ASU's big men. Led by Rucker, Davidson went on a 13-4 tear against the Apps and with 13 minutes remaining, ASU Head Coach 1 om Apke called a timeout with the Wildcats leading 42-34.

Thomlinson. The plaque which commemorates the dedication recognized her as a "lover of nature." If she were alive today, she would be shocked at the present condi­ tion of the pond. The Duck Pond is polluted with newspapers, beer cans and food wrappers. This is a disgrace to our university. What is especially disgusting about the state of this area is that a trash can is in the vicinity. The wind could be blamed for some of the lighter articles, but beer bottles and other heavy articles could not have blown into the pond. Regardless of the cause, something needs to be done to clean up this mess. This unsightly litter does not provide a healthy living condition for the ducks. The Physical Plant constantly works to clean debris. Numerous repairs necessitated by the cold weather make it difficult for these people to clear litter. Clubs and organizations seeking community service projects should consider cleaning the Duck Pond or other heavily polluted areas. ASU has a beautiful campus. The litter problem may be temporarily alleviated through the efforts of the aforementioned groups. However this problem needs to be attacked at the source—those who litter. N.C. economy still important in politics North Carolina's economy is on the rise. According to Governor Martin's "State of the State," the number of jobs in North Carolina hit three million in December 1985, and rose above three million in 1986. Perhaps more impressive is the astoundingly low unemployment rate which is currently below five percent. This is particularly encouraging when compared with the unemployment rate in 1984 which was seven percent. While this figure is extremely low, five percent of our population is still unemployed. As long as unemployment exists, we need strong political leaders to help us combat this problem. There has been a great resurgence among traditional industries such as textiles and apparel. Over six thousand jobs reappared due to these industries. The progress in this area is tremendous; however, greater attention needs to be paid to other problem areas, particularly farming. Small family farms have been declining for over twenty years. This is partially caused by high credit accumulation during the 1970's. Farmers are experiencing difficulty repaying these loans. The continuous fight against smoking threatens the tobacco industry in our state. When choosing candidates this November, voters should consider the proposals for improvements in North Carolina's economy. BLOOM COUNTY Open mind important in growtl Sometimes it seems rather ridiculous to sit here writing these articles. I'd say almost a fourth of what I've written this year is out-and-out B.S., simply so this page can get printed and everyone else on it can say what they want, to you, the "reading" public. The other three-quarters of what I've written has been generally misunderstood by many who read it. Perhaps this misunderstanding is partially my fault, from not always having time to be connected and cohesive; but I refuse to take the blame for all of it. The public today, it seems, tends to be very closeminded when it comes to the point of looking honestly at others' opinions. People find a specific way of looking at the world, and from that point onward, anything that disagrees with or doesn't fit into their scheme of thinking must automatically be wrong, and therefore is not worth looking closely at. I can be as hardheaded as anyone at times, but I have always tried to listen to people who believed something different from me. I firmly believe (after much thought) that nothing is too sacred to be ques­ tioned. If it's the truth, then it will hold up under questioning; if it's not the truth, then I want to know—I DON'T want to walk around the rest of my life being wrong and too stubborn to admit it. Working here at this paper has taught me that very £ ——— «• - 5_ Nothing escapes the Artistic Questions The other day while looking through the Big Wednesday/ Weekender (or whatever it's called), I noticed that the TV schedule was fouled up again, for about the hundreth time. I don't know about you, but I really liked being able to pull it out, fold it up, and have a readymade little booklet. These days, though, when I fold it up I get Lowe's Foods ads on the front and Saturday next to Tuesday. It's not that it really makes me angry or anything, it's just that I wonder WHY. I mean, WHY didn't they put it on thexight pages? When I get started on this WHY stuff, I just can't seem to quit. I want to know WHY everything. WHY are some wine bot­ tles green and others brown? WHY, after you drop a roll of toilet paper and it unrolls across the floor, can you never get it roiled back on right? WHY do you always study the exactly wrong things for any major test? Anyway, youget the idea.. Usually when I start asking these kinds of questions, it's because I'm exasperated about something—the old "pet peeve," the reason why most of us end up hating a perfectly nice roommate after a couple months together in a teeny little room. However, if you're in the right frame of mind questions can be damned amusing. For example, some friends of.mine were coming to visit a few years back, and in order t'o amuse themselves, they decided to come up with as many truly bizarre and mystifying questions as they could in the time it took to drive. This list of questions has since become almost legendary among our group and those who have en­ countered it. I'm now going to spread its fame (or infamy, however you care to look at it) a bit farther by putting select questions in public print, for the First time, ever.

We realize that this effort in­ volved time and energy that could have been devoted to other ac- auruToop/im tivities. The outpouring of warmth and affection displayed by the students and faculty of ASU and the compassion of the people of Boone has been more than heartwarming. We came to understand the true value of all the derivatives of blood during Portia's hospitalization. We have no idea of how much blood, platelets and plasma that Portia received, but it was a great deal. We will always be thankful that it was available. It was only available because of concerned people taking the time to share some of themselves. Because of that, [whenever anyone would ask what [they could do, we recommended giv­ ing blood at their local blood bank. Our understanding of life is that the Lord placed us on Earth for a purpose.

Hardee Another letter on parking To the Editor: 1 woulu axe to comment on Eric D. Miller's article about ASU's parking problems in the Ap­ palachian of February 9, 1988. I feel that Mr. Miller had the perfect answers about ASU's parking pro­ blems in his first paragraph, but the rest of his article was outlandish. To say that Pres. Reagan and his "cronies" are to blame is totally off base. Mr. Miller had three reasons for the parking problems. His first was that ASU is spending money on athletics, textbooks, salaries, con­ structing new buildings, etc. Mr. Miller agreed that we need these things, but cutbacks could provide capital for expandable areas. The main reason ASLI spends money on these things is so we can obtain the best education possible. I'll imagine that Chancellor Thomas is more concerned about our education than where we park our cars. would get an adequate amou"' of funding. His second reason was that ASU doesn't have money for parking because of our low tuition ASU Security probably makes enough off tickets and stickers to build another parking lot. I really don't think that the students and faculty would be willing to pay an extra $100 to fund a parking lot. If the extra money was for a new building then they would probably be very willing. In closing, 1 believe that does have the land and mon _ extra parking, but there.a^ , SD eliminate the problem wit ^ ding any money at all.

Callis commented that polls have shown only a marginal degree of interest among students. In closing remarks Greene and Callis reiterated their platform. "We're set up for the students.

WILLIAMS Appalachian Columnist' JON JIMISON Appalachian Staff Writer Navy military facility Appalachian Photo by Rich Koon Many rumors have circulated throughout the past two decades about the military facility in the base­ ment of Varsity Gym. Such rumors include the idea that nuclear weapons were manufactured there, and top secret activities took place. Also, that the Air Force was conducting B-l Bomber missions in connection with Varsity Gym. A classified Naval Emergency Communications Command Post operated as late as 1962. "The Navy contacted the president (of ASU), Dr. Plemmons, about utilizing some space on campus and at that time Varsity Gym did not exist," Vice rtnans "vv Chancellor of Business Affairs ROTC ambushed by allegations By MARY CATES Appalachian Staff Writer A recent letter to The Appalachian las caused a disturbance among many uembers of ASU's Army Reserve fraining Corps (ROTC). The anonymous letter titled 'ROTC Policy is Reprehensible" ran n the February 23 issue, and conained allegations concerning recruitnent procedures. According to the etter: "Seniors who fail to get at least me sophomore to commit will have jieir grade in the three hour course 'topped one full letter grade." Major Carl Ward, Battalion enrollment Officer, addressed the ccusations. No student in the history of this ir°gram, certainly not in the last four ears that Captain Salinas and I have wn here, has ever lost a letter grade 'ecause he did not contract someone i this program," Ward said. tnior cadets are involved in a Ponsorship program where they must ntrnC 0ne or two sophomore ' students throughout the •tester to answer questions , , , have about the program "The course syllabus identifies that 30 percent of their grade as a senior relies on their participation in the pro­ gram. In there, you are required to participate in the recruitment of members," Ward said. "The individual (who wrote the let­ ter) walked into that contract with a clear and open picture of what he or she was facing," he added. "I think our reputation on campus speaks for itself." Major Carl Ward Senior Cadet 2nd Lieutenant Jay Adams gave another reason for par­ ticipating in the sponsorship program. "If we do not contact these people, we are showing them that we are selfish and we do not care enough to call them," Adams said. "This (the letter) also reflects a lit­ tle failure in the past that we've had and are trying to improve in the spon­ sorship program," Adams said. Senior Cadet and scholarship recipient, Michael Hollingsworth described the incident. "When Major Ward came in to speak to us, it was as though we were lieutenants and he was our company commander giving us an order," Hollingsworth said. In the letter to the editor, the ROTC program was described as hav­ ing "boring classes" and "cadets in ill-fitting uniforms." "I'm in the program because I don't think it's boring, and because I don't think the uniforms are illfitting," Hollingsworth said. As a senior who will graduate in May with honors, Hollingsworth expressed concern about faculty im­ pressions of the incident. "I respect my professors.. .and some of these individuals may look at me in a different light, and that hurts," Hollingsworth said. Major Ward expressed confidence in the existing ROTC program. "I think our reputation on campus speaks for itself," Ward said. Appalachian Photo by Paul Caakill ^ETING WEEK: The A.S.U. Chapter of the Chapter Advisor (left) and Robert D.

"Pat" Patton, III, Ned R. Trivette, said. Arrangements were made for the Navy to use the space in Broome-Kirk Gym until a more suitable place could be found for their needs. This was utilized until the construction of Varsity Gymnasium was completed in 1968. The Navy worked with the gym's architect on how their facility would be constructed. Special requirements such as wiring, lighting, and a sophisticated ventilation system need­ ed to be installed. The facility was not designated to resist bombs or blasts. "It was isolated in a way so that contaminated air could not infiltrate the space. That was the major con­ cern," Trivette said. There was a radio room, three fireproof vaults, and a large workroom. aiso, a transmitter room wurxroom. Also, used by an affiliate of the Navy was located in a small space at the top of the stairs. Today the heating, cooling, and ventilation system designed to filter radioactive fallout are still in place. Also, the workroom has been divided into several classrooms, and the vaults have been converted into faculty offices. The cost of constructing Varsity Gym was approximately $2,054,400 which was financed by state and federal funds. The Navy paid an annual rental fee of $19,800 over a period of 10 years to cover the con­ struction costs of its facility. The facility was manned by a fulltinft civilian employee of the Navy who was the only local resident to work at the facility Trivette said. "Periodically, they (the Navy) her would bring a group of people here and go through the simulated exer­ cise. To my knowledge that occurred no more than once per year. They went through the exercise as if things were in an emergency state," Trivette said. The transmitter room at the top of the stairs was manned by MARS (Military Affiliate Radio System). MARS is a volunteer service which is under the Department of Defense's Disaster Support Division. In the event of an emergency MARS would handle emergency communications. MARS also relays messages from military personnel overseas to their families. This is done through a com­ plex system of military and civilian relay stations. The equipment in the transmitter room was the property of the U.S. See NAVY Page 2 Historical landmark preserved Dougherty House to be moved New sources reveal The Dougherty House will be moved rather than destroyed. "We're not in mind of tearing down The Dougherty House but we will move it," Vice-Chancellor for Develop­ ment Bob Snead said. "It is felt that the university needs that space (the land occupied by The Dougherty House)," Snead said. Local citizens have formed The Dougherty House Memorial Committee to help in saving the historical land­ mark. "If the Committee working to save it has not raised the money by June we will more than likely move it to a temporary location," Snead said. The Dougherty House sits on a valuable piece of land located on Rivers Street. "This is needed property and as a short-term goal park­ ing lots will probably be put there and as a long-term goal, eventually it will be a prime building site," Snead said. Around $270,000 is needed to move and renovate the house. Anyone wishing to donate to this fund should con­ tact The Dougherty House Memorial Committee. Alternative methods for detecting AIDs College students may be tested (CPS)—U.S. Surgeon General C. Everett Koop wants to test every stu­ dent of a major American university this spring to determine the prevalence of AIDS on campuses, but many students and several college health officials think it's a bad idea. "Why?" Univeristy of IlliniosChicago Student Health Director Dr. Richard J. Schuch said. "Why would we want to do this? I'd rather deal with the risks at hand. We should be worried about getting decent condom ads on television and addressing issues of safe sex. Why waste money on this stuff?" Other critics say the tests wouldn't reveal much about college AIDS. Testing students at the California university tells you little about the University of Alabama. "I don't think you can generalize," Rutgers University Health Education Director Fern Goodhart said. Health officials warn that college students, because of their general sex­ ual promiscuity are prime risks to contract AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome), a fatal virus spread through intravenous needles, contaminated blood products and sexual contact with an AIDS carrier. But the money to test students, Schuch said, would be better spent on educational purposes. "I'm offended that kids are expos­ ed to thousands of hours of violence and sex on television, and we can't get the networks to run a decent condom ad or safe sex spot," he said. Koop announced the plan January 27 at a London conference on AIDS and has yet to choose a university, but wants a 25,000-student urban campus where the mass testing would be part of a one-day campus "gala" on AIDS prevention. Testing would be done anonymous­ ly, Koop said, and those taking part would not be told the results. Students who did not wish to par­ ticipate in the testing would not be re­ quired to do so, he added. Koop's past anti-AIDS efforts also have drawn fire, especially from other Reagan administration officials, most notably Secretary of Education William Bennett who objects to his endorsement of safe sex practices and wish to teach AIDS prevention to grade school students. Bennett wants AIDS education to start in high school, and to stress abstinence and monogamy as the best way to avoid AIDS, a policy, critics argue is fanciful and unrealistic. Testing all students on a single cam­ pus "raises a lot of questions," Goodhart said. She is "troubled by questions of privacy that could arise from such testing and the public ramifications of testing one school." Fears that the chosen school might have students with AIDS could drive some students to transfer and others not to apply there, Goodhart said. The college could also have trouble getting insurance. "I have a lot of problems with the way the government has handled AIDS," Illinios-Chicago student government President Laurie Paul added. Her school is considering man­ datory AIDS tests, she said, and many students are concerned about who will have access to the results. But Paul wouldn't oppose the plan if her campus was selected and a strong AIDS education program was included. "It could be controversial. It depends on how they do it. It's all in the marketing," she said. AIDS testing poses other serious problems, Goodhart added. False positive test results, she said, are not uncommon, and can leave devastating emotional scars. "I'm not sure many schools have the support services necessary to deal with that. There are a lot of conse­ quences. A false negative can also provide students with a false sense of confidence," Goodhart said. If the school tested has a low in­ cidence of AIDS, Goodhart said, students may think they have nothing to fear and years of safe sex education could be ignored. A member of the Michigan State Lesbian/Gay Council who asked to be identified as Steve said the test would be worthless unless par­ ticipants were notified of their results. "Otherwise, you're not doing anything for anybody," he said. "I would want the results if I dould get them anonymously," Patrick Springer, a Rutgers junior said. Few students would be willing to participate in a testing program. "I'm not sure you gain as much as you lose," Goodhart added. �THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDA Y, FEBRUARY25, 1988 Navy Heidi Van Dine Consequences of underage drinking Here comes another weekend; so who is having "the party?" Yeah? Great! You'll buy a couple of six packs and get shmoted, soused, blitzed, busched, juiced, and quaisted—not to mention sliced, diced and pureed. On­ ly one problem: finding someone who is old enough to buy the stuff for you. No biggie. There is always some broke senior willing to perform the favor for a small fee: either commis­ sion (some of your alcohol), or something along the monetary lines. Or, if you are lucky enough, you have a 21-year-old friend who is willing to help you out of the goodness of his heart, or else is so wasted that he will do it "just 'cause he can." Small word of advice to the sudden­ ly popular 21-year-old "Legalite:" UNLAWFUL. Any person who is 21 or older, and who "aides and abets" another per­ son (under 21) in purchasing alcoholic beverages, is guilty of a misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of up to $2000 and/or imprisonment of up to two years. So you'll just lend the "littluns" your driver's license? Nope—that, too is against the law. A conviction report will be sent to the Division of Motor Vehicles, and they will turn around and revoke your license for a year. And you might also be charged with "aiding and abetting," and face those penalties. You're 18 years old and in a bind. All the "legalites" have refused to buy your alcohol so what are your op­ tions? Hey! You know a friend who will change your driver's license, or who can make a whole new ID for you, complete with the birthdate of your choice. Well, the guy who does that for you is in a heck of a lot of trouble, but let's just talk about what you've got­ ten yourself into. Individuals convicted of obtaining or attempting to obtain alcoholic beverages by the use of a false or altered driver's license, or a driver's license issued to someone else, or a false or altered identification card, or an identification card issued to so­ meone else, will be guilty of a misde­ meanor, and could be punished by a fine of $500 and/or imprisonment of up to 6 months. In addition, you lose your driver's license for a year. If you decide to brave buying the alcohol on your own and hope your mature looks and behavior will pull you through, remember this: Any individual under 21 years of age convicted of possessing, purchas­ ing, or attempting to purchase malt beverages, fortified/unfortified wine, or spirituous liquor will be guilty of a misdemeanor, and could be punished by a fine of up to $500 and/or im­ prisonment of up to 6 months. Now, I'm not completely ignorant: I realize that many underage people do get away with purchasing, possess­ ing, and consuming alcohol. If you are among them, or even if you are a legal drinker, keep the following in mind: 1. It is unlawful for any person in a motor vehicle to consume any alcoholic beverages, including the driver and passengers. Violation of this law is a misdemeanor and is punishable by a $25-$50 fine and/or imprisonment of up to 30 days. 2. It is unlawful for any person to publically display any alcoholic beverage at an athletic event or con­ test. 3. It us unlawful for any person to consume fortified wine, spirituous li­ quor, or mixed beverages on any public road, street, highway, or sidewalk. And please, please, please, don't drink and drive. I'll cover the reper­ cussions of a DWI at a later date. But for now, please just DON'T! I'm not an anti-party prude, but hey guys, let's keep it in moderation. And stick to the laws. If you do find yourself arrested for these, or any other violations of the law, contact Student Legal Services at 262-6255.

Are you not concerned about who is running student government next year? That does not say a whole lot about a group of supposedly intelligent peo­ ple, the bright hope of tomorrow, who cannot even make it to a presidential debate. How do students expect to make sound choices in next week's election when they aren't even informed on the issues? There were less than 50 students at the Greene/Watson debate this past Monday, and yes I did count. It is sad so few students couldn't make time in their busy schedule to find out the platform issues of the candidates. Both tickets seemed well-versed and enthusiastic about the presidency and the duties it involves. Wouldn't it be depressing to see student government if it were as indifferent as students seem to be? There would be no Mountaineer Escort, committees, senate-nothing. Just eager debators—and empty seats. Students need to remember the importance of the vote. After all, every elec­ tion is won one vote at a time. A vote can't count if it is never made. Students who want to make a real difference in how student interests are handled need to carefully look over campaign material and talk to campaign workers and candidates. Don t cop-out with the "I don't see anyone around campus" stuff. They are as accessible as you make them and will answer any questions you may have. That is what they are there for. Have you ever heard the expression "use it or lose it?" I hope that never applies to students' right to vote in SGA elections. Last year, less than 2,500 students came out to vote. That's a small figure compared to the over 10,000 students at the university. Why are students not getting involved in this student body governing process? Do they feel SGA has nothing to offer them? That is the wrong attitude to take. People get nothing when that is all they are offering. There are positions to be had in all ranks of student government not just leadership positions. If you want to be informed on student happen­ ings, SGA Senate meets every Tuesday evening in Whitener Hall. If your schedule doesn't allow this there is always plain old communication. Your hand isn't broken. You can always write your senator or just call the cabinet member that would deal with your concern. There are always routes available to you as a member of this student body. If students do not voice their prob­ lems or concerns then nothing will be alleviated. This university is something tojake pride in and.if.there is a difficulty somewhere it is up to the students to take action. There is always a,p^ace for the voice of the student, be it in publications, academics or student government. Both tickets'seem genuinely interested in improving the university communi­ ty and in helping you the student. The least you could do in return would be to find out pertinent information about the platforms and use your student right-VOTE! No one really likes to see them, especially if you park on campus. But, traffic officers are necessary to keep things running smoothly, especially on an overcrowded, overparked campus. Who are we talking about? ASU student traffic officers. These eight brave souls work diligently making order out of the parking chaos that would otherwise exist at ASU. And yes, a part of that job is giving tickets, but that is not all they do, according to Security Director Roy Tugman. "They do a good job, and they should have the respect of the students." Roy Tugman Security Director Even though their primary job is traffic control, they do help with roadblocks when necessary, overnight security in some campus buildings, and crowd control during major events, like concerts and sporting events. At any given time, these are generally about 10 students who do this, but the number does go up and down a bit, Tugman said. Even though most people would expect these students to be all criminal justice majors, they come from a variety of backgrounds. Students desiring a job with security simply come in and apply. "We select them from an applica­ tion pool that we keep," Tugman said. The only requirement is that they are able to do a good job and maintain a 2.0 GPA. These students are paid out of the auxiliary traffic fund, which is made up of parking fees and tickets. The student officers are trained under supervision for a couple of weeks before they handle their jobs alone, Tugman said. He added in this line of work, a person is always in a training condition. Some might question whether a stu­ dent officer receives respect from the student body the same way a security Officer does. Tugman thinks they do. 'They do a good job, and they should have the respect of the students," he said. The student officer is benefited by the experience the job gives them, Tugman feels, no matter what they plan to do after college. He feels the student "learns quite a bit of responsibility." They learn they must be punctual, dependable, and they learn a lot of maturity towards whatever their chosen career will be. "It's more than just a part-time job," Tugman said. "They are doing a good job and I feel that they do it fairly." Roy Tugmar Security Director Another of the primary things they learn is how to deal with the public on a daily basis. Tugman said these students deserve to be commended for their willingness to do this sort of work where other students see it day to day. They are outstanding young men and women," Tugman said. "They are doing a good job and I feel that they do it fairly," he said.

Get 'personal9 with the candidates Watson shows concern for students Beat life's stress with Wellness tips ing you that the pressures of life are too much. By changing your routine you can have a feeling of wellness again. Wellness is not just the absense of stress and disease, but a process of continual learning and growth that creates good health and a zest for life. While stress can complicate any aspect of our daily routine, wellness integrated into our daily life can bring about a healthy body and mind. The key to managing stress is to take on a balanced approach to life. Look at all aspects of your life by taking the test "How Vulnerable Are You To Stress?" and take steps to ensure your well-being. The "whole person" concept is an effective way of evaluating one's lifestyle and maintaining a feeling of well-being. The first aspect is the physical self. A healthy body is main­ tained by regular cardiovascular workouts, sleep, and good nutrition. Also play it safe with moderate use of alcohol, tobacco, and abstinence from other drugs. The emotional and spiritual aspects make up your "inner self." Having an awareness, accept­ ance and the ability to express your feelings can act as a ventilating system when you're stressed. Also take time out to understand who you are, your values and beliefs, and what your pur­ pose in life is. Being able to express your feelings to others develops supportive rela­ tionships. In turn, this can bring about a concern for the welfare of others. Can you ever remember feel­ ing bad when you helped somebody else feel good? Get out to have fun with your friends and get your mind off your worries. Frequently, stress develops because of improper plan­ ning and management. Plan out a schedule and financial budget and stick with it. Learn to solve your problems by examining the situation, coming up with options, and follow­ ing with the most appropriate one. Finally, seek satisfaction with work, school, and personal identity. Put everything in perspective, and remember, there's always a "silver lining."

Greene would like the President to better repre­ sent the students on town council by communicating its plan to Senate and hav­ ing a vote before he votes on the town council. Appc.'ucnion Photo by Kim Howoll Scott Watson shows concern for student involvement. By APRIL GRIFFIN El Cetera Editor Sincerity, real interest in the cam­ pus and community are important qualities in any political campaign; qualities that presidential hopeful Scott Watson thinks he has in great supply. Watson, a native "Boone goon," feels he has always been civic and community-minded. As student body president of Watauga High School he became interested in help­ ing the community through political office. "If you have an opportunity to make a difference then you have to get involved," Watson stated. "If people in SGA will talk to their constituents then better communication will be made." Scott Watson, SGA presidential candidate Involved he is. Watson has been in the Deep Gap Volunteer Fire Depart­ ment for the past six years. "It helps you deal with people and know where they are coming from," Watson said. Watson is also involved in church activities and has served as Youth Director for three years. "I know what it takes to get in touch with the community," Watson said. In his spare time he enjoys helping build television sets for studios and worked with the Pan American Games held in Indianapolis for CBS. "Involvement is the key," he said! Through his community and cam­ pus involvement Watson feels he's got his finger on the pulse of the com­ munity and can serve students well. Communication is very much a part of his game plan. "If people in SGA will talk to their constituents then better communica­ tion will be made," Watson said. His platform wants to show students how to get involved in cam­ pus concerns and be on a person-toperson basis with students. "I want to see student involvement. It is a necessity," he added. Watson wants to see a committee established from every residence hall to check on renovations. Currently there are no formal student represen­ tatives on this concern. "I desire to see things done for the students," Watson said. Watson feels students are a vital link in the Watauga community and was upset when students right to vote was questioned. He feels they are legal residents just like other citizens. "Students have a right and should vote," Watson said. When asked how his parents feel about his political aspirations Watson said, "They are 100 percent behind me." He also appreciates the team work and loyalty of his staff. "I feel honored these people are working to support us," he said. No matter what the outcome of the election is Watson said, "I will be working for students no matter what." Watson may be involved with many organizations but feels he can give his best to students. "It's all a matter of prioritizing your time. Life is just so long and I don't like to waste time. If you have a chance to help people then you should do it," Watson said. Greene's experience is multifaceted. Some of his leadership experience has been with RSA, in which he has served as a vice president and president, and Appol Corps, on which he served as a leader last year and now serves as one of six coor­ dinators. Greene is also a member of the Baptist Student Union and is on the Dean's list. He enjoys running, despite surgery he's had on his knees, and is a fan of baseball. The Off-Campus Affairs commit­ tee is sponsoring the up-coming Rental Fair, to be held in April that will provide a way for students to talk to a variety of renters in one location. Greene explained a major purpose of the Fair is to provide information to students who cannot get back into dorms. Greene has definite plans for the office if elected. His 10-point plat­ form includes plans to investigate the graffiti problem; to improve student parking and crossing to Walker and Broyhill on River's Street; and to create an RSA cabinet position. Greene's main goal as president is to improve communication with the community, between the board of trustees and students, and with all student and campus organizations. Greene would like the President to better represent the students on town council by communicating its plans to Senate and having a vote before he votes on the town council. "We're not just students that are concerned with Student Government, but This year, Greene has served as the ^jjljJh^tudentsT^^^^^ chairperson of the new Off-Campus Affairs committee.

The International Relations Association club here on campus deals with just that. The IRA, established in 1971, is involved in hosting and attending model United Nations meetings all over the country. Sound interesting? In the past, the club has attended model UN's at Har­ vard, Georgetown, Princeton, and the University of Pennsylvania. The IRA has won several merit awards at these meetings. This year the group has been to the University of Penn­ sylvania last November and the University of South Florida on February 3-7. Both UN meetings hosted various colleges from around the nation. The UN meeting in Tampa hosted a win for the club when two delegates were awarded honors. Kelly Dorgan was honored with best delegate award for her participation in the Working Council on Disarmament. Kevin Smith was rewarded with a superior rating for his performance in the Security Council. Advisor Dr. Roland Moy believes by attending these con­ ferences club members gain more ex­ perience to use in their own con­ ferences here at ASU. The IRA on campus hosts UN con­ ferences throughout the year with two in the fall and one in winter. The fall events are divided into a high school student event and an additional weekend for college students. These conferences are model UNs which bring high school and college students together from around this region. The event allows students to discuss inter­ national problems. The conference students are divided into councils where the delegates portray a member of the United Nations. Dr. Moy believes these conferences teach students how the UN works and are important for students who learn to use cooperation to solve problems. The IRA is always seeking members to help in the UNs. The conferences are hard work but according to Kevin Smith, club secretary and treasurer, "the work is worth it when the con­ ferences end successfully and we have a feeling that we achieved positive results and staged the best UN we could put together." In this academic year the club has one remaining UN. Junior high students will be in attendance on April 12 and high school delegates on April 13. If you wish to participate in this model UN please contact Dr. Roland Moy of the Political Science Department at 262-3055. boneh C'MON, HoneV. You KNOW I'D STAND IN FRONT OF A MACK 1RUCK FOR YOU.

I came in from a meeting full of good intentions I didn't study much last week (read-not at all), so I was going to work extra hard this week to make up for my slackness. I had a French test to study for, a Spanish composition to write, and some business law to read I gathered my books together and made some tea (1 thrive off of caffeine) and settled down for some serious studying. My plans were soon shattered. All thoughts of studying Dew right out the window when my roommate told me the movie Valley Girl was coming on. What a groovie movie.

Julie is this ultimate Valley girl, who dates this (supposedly) hot Val dude but she realizes that there might be more to life than weird accents and credit cards. She sees this incredible guy (Cage) at the beach, then he later shows up at a party. Only this time, he has pink hair, which definitely makes him stand out in a crowd. So they escape the dweebs at this party and hit Hollywood, which is his turf. I hey date for a while, then her ex (Tommy the dork) con­ vinces her friends that dating someone who is different could scar her for life. So her friends tell her it s them or him, and like an idiot, she chooses them Randy is not a quitter, though. He fLlows her around, and appears at odd places, like the ticket taker at the movie, or the car hop at he drive-in. You can figure the rest out. It's a modern-day Romeo and Juliet, and it's a little far-fetched but it just makes you happy to watch. The best thing about it though, is the soundtrack starring Modern English's "I Melt With You" as the theme song. It's also got the Plimsouls, and a bunch of other good stuff. Unfortunately, no one I know has ever been able to find the soundtrack. Needless to say, I didn't start studying until after 10:00. But that's better than last week. The Godfath not a bad group By ERIC BOLASH Appalachian Staff Writer These poor chaps need to come in out of the English rain. The Godfathers begin their indulgence in cynicism and depression by titling their latest album and its title track, "Birth, School, Work, Death." What a way to look at life, you know? Well, before the reader is completely turned off to the album, I should be wishy-washy and insert that.. .it's not all that bad. The title track comes across quite powerfully, as mainstream alternative goes. Short, choppy guitar licks accompany a barking chorus of "Birth .. .School .. .Work ... Death." The guys seem to basically be saying, "Look around you; there's nothing you can do to escape this vicious cycle of life." Hey, I am the -title, and I beg to differ, but it is their album. Tell Me Why" begins with the P ugging feel of merry-go-round rousic. It quickly picks up to a catchy, nving beat, though, and vocalist, eter Coyne, sings of the dismal, torurous feelings of devotion to a woman who (like many) has not a traction of this love to return. (Did I y that?).

I don't really know why I was allowed on the staff. You see, I had no inten­ tions of writing about anything. I was there to draw cartoons. I was given the title of Art Director which was more or less a vague label which allowed me to screw around during the appropriate class set aside for the production of the paper until an editor needed an illustration to take up some space on a page. I had nothing to do with page design or layouts. I spent this time discussing music with other members of the staff, roaming the campus without a pass ("Purely newspaper business, I assure you, ma'am,") and flirting with a cute blonde reporter of Finnish descent that I had grown up with. The latter of these was the most enjoyable until I came to the realization that she was more interested in the Sports Editor. So it goes. Even though my flimsy title kept me from having to do practically anything (writing stupid articles about organizations I could care less about, paste-ups, driving to pick up the papers, etc.) I was still stuck with covering a beat. A "beat" was a club or organization that each reporter was assigned. The reporter had to visit the advisor of each club periodically to see if the club was currently doing anything of interest. I was assigned ROTC (which absolutely no one wanted to cover). I think this was because the other editors were jealous of my freedom. illustrates the soldier and sets him The ROTC instructor was a soldier apart." of considerable rank (exactly what I Being a Boy Scout, I could relate to don't remember).

Period. As a performer who has worked there several times, I have always been convinced of this. Yet Thursday night I had the opportunity to be part of the audience at the Klondike for the first time, and my opinion was greatly reenforced. The Klondike is a small place about 10 tables and a bar. In terms of room, seating, acoustics, etc., the cafe is about as well suited for music as the glove compartment of a large Buick. Yet such a small place provides for a communication between band and au­ dience that is unparalleled anywhere else in Boone. Thursday night's act was Dan Campbell and Lester Gross, collec­ tively known as Beggar's Holiday. This duo out of Greensboro were bill­ ed as an "acoustic rock" band, and this description is as precise as any. One six- and one twelve-string guitar and occasionally a harmonica con­ stitutes the sound of the band. Both men are fine singers as well, and enhance each other's vocal skills with some well-balanced harmonies. The variety of tunes the guys know is striking also. Campbell and Gross played everything from Neil Young to the Georgia Satellites; from the Beatles to John Mellencamp; from Otis Redding to Jimmy Buffet. Yes, lots and lots of Buffet. Every band that comes to Boone had better be ready to play some Buffet, and Beg­ gar's Holiday played more Jimmy Buffet than Jimmy himself did. The guys are quite talented and work well together, but I feel their success Thursday was due largely to the opportunity they had to work with the crowd: an opportunity provided by the close quarters at the Klondike. Interaction with the audience is im­ portant in a show like that of Beggar's Holiday, and the guys did a masterful job making the crowd a part of the show. By the end of the night, the au­ dience was calling them by their first names and shouting requests. Having a large repertoire and no formal set, the guys work very well in this type of situation. Beggar's Holiday went over extremely well with the Klondike crowd, and it was nice for me to be in the crowd for a change and watching a good show. But 1 do not recommend the Klon­ dike Cafe to those who want merely to watch a show. I recommend it to those who are not afraid of finding themselves a part of the show—jam­ ming and partying as hard as the members of the band themselves, and having just as much fun.

It's just one of those things you stumble across as you get older that make you feel like you're not a kid anymore. I don't know how anyone of even marginal intelligence could make it 18-odd years without en­ countering and storing a little basic information about the Beatles, like their names. And by th; way, when Ted Knight died, I remember a great many freshmen who didn't recognize the name "Ted Baxter," but knew who I was talking about when I mentioned that monumentally moronic piece of dreck, "Too Close for Comfort." The cretins. I don't know how anyone of even marginal intelligence could make it 18-odd years without encountering and storing a little basic information about the Beatles, like their names. Of course, I am citing an extreme example, as I would be willing to bet every cent I own that what few people there are bothering to read this crap already know who the bloody VicePresident of the United States is. I have another friend who won't purchase any Beatles albums for his CD .player because he thinks they're too yeh yeh bouncy Kids, I'm start­ ing to feel old. I patiently explained to him that he was thinking about the wrong Beatles; the early Beatles just did bunches of hold your hand, dance party crap. But they did it better than about anybody. The real Beatles started when they turned into hippies and started trying new things. The music they turned out during that period was nothing short of magical. Between when they came to America shortly before I was born and when they broke up, they were the biggest stars the music business has ever seen, except maybe Elvis and THEY wrote their own music. So I can safely say that I'm not exag­ gerating too awful much when 1 say that they invented rock and roll. Which brings me back to my open­ ing. How do you follow up being a Beatle? It doesn't seem like any of them had a plan. How could they plan for it? &ft| You might remember what gjss Meredith said to Sylvester Stalone in Rocky III; "You had the worst thing happen to you that can happen to a fighter; you won! There's nowhere to go but down." Hmm. If I'd been champion of the world at something, I think I'd try to go into something else afterwards to avoid having to compete with myself. But none of the Beatles tried that. Except I haven't heard any albums out of Ringo in a while. The real Beatles started when they turned into hip­ pies and started trying new things. The music they turned out during that period was nothing short of magical. It's funny. No matter how famous you get, some punk kid will come along who ain't heard of you. Maybe the only thing to do is keep making good music. Then the new kids will know who you are. I guess George (Harrison, not Bush) was right after all. I think "Cloud Nine" shows that you can go somewhere besides down. Another metal group that is even worse See GODFATHERS Page 7 Appalachian Photo by CBS Rocords Recording artists (he Godfathers True the band is only a year old... maybe improve­ ment will come in time. God knows they couldn't get any worse. Therefore, this album should do quite well on the charts. Tattooed Beat Messiah is possibly the worst album I've ever heard. Make that definitely the worst. They rank right up there with L.A. Guns. In fact, the only thing I like about this album is the Tarot cards on the album sleeve. The members are: Zodiac— "Leader of the Pack" (I assume that means vocals,) Cobalt Stargazer— guitar, Slam Thunderhide—drums, Trash D. Garbage—bass, and Flash Bastard—guitar. (Yep, I want to bring these guys home to meet the folks.) I think these guys spent more time picking out groovy, celestial names than they did on their music. Maybe a super-duper, hard-core, never-saydie, I'll-listen-to-anything metalhead would enjoy Tattooed Beat Messiah, but I didn't. This album is a feminist nightmare. Here's sample of their lyrics: "Prime Mover" Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Well I love TV and / love T.

Repetitive drum beats, mediocre guitars and Zodiac's unimpressive, limited-range singing are trademarks of this album. David Balfe and Bill Drummond produced Tattooed Beat Messiah, although if I were them I wouldn't admit it. True the band is only a year old, so maybe improve­ ment will come in time. God knows they couldn't get any worse. A Hurricane, a pitcher of beer, and a Margarita with 'em couldn't even same this album. Although Hell's suggestion to play it at 45 rpm worked well.

Some visits he'll be a little more long-winded, or more brilliant, but that's OK; if he's your favorite uncle, the only reasons you need to go are the sound of his voice' and the memories it evokes. The same holds true, and then some, for James Taylor, and if the only reason I can find to recommend his new album, Never Say Die, to you is that it's a typical James Taylor album, well, I have a feeling that it'll be enough for some of vou. "Carolina In My Mind." Most of the songs on the album are beautiful. James Taylor's lyrics have always been simple, childlike, more con­ cerned with fun, love and joy than the intellectual self-importance and moral obligation of for instance Sting, (whose music I really enjoy). This album continues that tradition with, among others, the title song with the lyrics "We were ring-aroundthe-rosy children/They were circles around the sun/Never give up, never slow down/Never grow old, never ever die young." Other songs on the album which really caught my ear were "First Of May," "Sweet Potato Pie," and the I stirring "Baby Boom Baby," a song Just like his last album, That's Why that changes meanings for me each I'm Here, it's a little uneven. Some of time I listen to it. Almost everything the songs, like "Valentine's Day" and on the album is great—by the end of it "Sun On the Moon" are relatively all, you sort of get inured to the quali­ weak lyrically and, to a lesser extent, ty, so you're spoiled to some extent musically; it's important to under­ on whatever you listen to afterwards. stand that they are weak compared to Compared to the bland rhythmic classics like "Country Road" and crap that is pop music today, and to Showcasing ASU Theatre talent the jangly atonal noise that pro­ gressive music is descending towards, Never Say Die is welcome relief. This album fits right in with the way James Taylor's career has been going. While I lament the loss of much of the organic sound that his earlier work had, I guess music in general has been heading in the glossy, more synthesized direction, and I don't blame Taylor any more than I blame Bruce Springsteen for the sound on his new album. Never Say Die hangs together better than anything in recent memory. At his worst, JT creates finely-crafted music with quirky lyrics and a distinctive sound. At his best, that sound combines with extraordinary lyrics and intricate vocal and instrumental arrangements to create songs worthy of lasting memory. So, in the end, I guess the album's main drawback is that it's just another JT album. But its main strength is that, well, it's another JT album. And that's enough for me.

Playwright's Festival in Greef The ASU Playcrafters invite you to experience an evening of new talent, when they present The New Playwrights' Festival February 25-27 in the I.G. Greer Arena Theatre, beginning at 8 p.m. Playcrafters is >pen to all ASU students who have an interest in theatre arts. The plays are entirely student written, directed and acted. This is the fourth year that Plavcrafters has produced this event. The plays are the winning entries of a playwriting contest that was held campus wide last fall. The organiza­ tion received a number of scripts from students and faculty. The result was a wide range of impressive new talent. The plays were submitted to a play reading committee, comprised of theatre students and faculty members, who selected the winning plays. Direc­ tors were selected by another commit­ tee, also made up of faculty and stu­ dent members. This year's festival is comprised of three one-act plays. The first is Case Number 2628, written by Erica Swenson and directed by Kristi Nicholson. The play is the story of Linda Hobbs, The play is directed by n.. a young woman who works in a loca* who is assisted by Brian h N factory.

By TREY BARRINEAU It was a clean sweep for the Ap­ palachian State University Women's Indoor Track team at the Southern Conference Championships. The Lady Mountaineers were led by double-winner Lamonda Miller, who broke school records in both the 55m and 200m races. Miller, a junior criminal justice ma­ jor from Caroleen, N.C., was also named Southern Conference Track Athlete of the Year. Her winning times in the 55m and 200m sprints were both just shy of the national qualifying times in those events. "I was honestly surprised at being named Athlete of the Year. I realized that I had a good year, but some of my teammates were equally deserving," Miller said. For her effort in this past weekend's conference championship, held on the campus of East Tennessee State University in Johnson City, Miller has been named this week's Appalachian Athlete of the Week. "Obviously Lamonda had an out­ standing conference championship. She has worked very hard and is prov­ ing to me she's willing to pay the price for her success," ASU Track Coach John Weaver said. However, Miller was not the only Lady Mountaineer to fair well in the Johnson City meet. The team dominated the meet from start to finish, winding up more than 100 points ahead of their closest com­ petitor, the ETSU Bucs. Other in­ dividual winners included: Patrina Massey, Mellisia Rogers, and Linda McKoy. McKoy was a double-winner also, taking first-place in both the tri­ ple jump and high jump. In all, the Lady Mountaineers shat­ tered six school records, had six in­ dividual winners, and brought home 25 of the possible 36 All-Southern While ASU's women won their first championship, ASU's men missed their first title in four years. VMI won the men's championship with a total of 145 points. ASU came in second with 98 points. In spite of their second place performance, men's track coach Bob Pollock had much to be pleased about. "Of the 18 athletes we took to the cofnpetition, 12 set personal bests," he said. "This is a predominately freshman team, and I think we've got a lot of potential." In the 55-meter dash, Darryl Russell placed third with a time of 6.44 seconds. Keith Collins finished fifth at 6.48 seconds, and Frank Allen finished sixth with a time of 6.59 seconds. Appalachian Staff Writer team has one more goal, one more ac complishment left in their season Allen then sprinted to the 200-meter championship in a Southern Conference record time of 21.75 seconds. Collins finished fourth in 22.32 seconds. Allen later added to his accomplishments with a second place finish in the 400-meters. His time of 48.37 seconds set a new school record. Dean Duncan placed fifth in the 800-meters with a time of 1:54.7. A new Southern Conference record was set in the triple jump. ASU's Warren Posey, who earlier had placed third in the long jump with a distance of 24 feet, four and one-half inches, triple-jumped 52 feet, 10 and one-half inches to win the Southern Con­ ference title. The leap also qualified Posey fo the NCAA Indoor Cham­ pionship in March. "Warren placed 13th last year out­ they want to win the Southern Gin. f r n e T u n m n.

The Apps knew they were in for some tough road games this past week, and that is just what they got. The Mountaineers, who have played well in the last month, lost a close game to VMI on Saturday night and anything but a close game to Marshall on Monday. The Apps traveled to Lexington, Virginia last Saturday and were edged by the Keydets 66-65. With 20 seconds remaining and a one-point lead, Rodney Peel missed the front end of a one and one. VMI quickly moved the ball down the court for the game win­ ner, a buzzer-beater by Damon Williams. The loss was a disappointment, but Coach Apke still feels his team will fare well in the tournament. 'In this conference you are always going to have trouble on the road. We • could have won the VMI game if we had not gotten so far behind early," he said. "In this conference you The Apps continue to be inconsis­ are always going ot have tent at the foul line, shooting only 5 of 11 from the charity stripe against trouble on the road.

At present they are thing especially for a Mountaineer locked in a tie for third place with team that has already accomplished o The buzzer sounds and 10 men take the floor. A push, a shove, a blow to the nose; then, of course, all hell breaks loose. Do you recognize this sport? Well, if you guessed hockey or group boxing, guess again. I am referring to basketball, in particular, the games last weekend. I've heard some people say how great the fights were. Oh yeah, there was foul language, blood and total barbarism for several minutes, forget the ballgame. Well, I can get that kind of action from some cheap, poorly-made "R" movie that the local video store rents for my VCR. What ever happened to the notion that basketball is a "non-contact" sport? Somewhere along the way, I believe that idea has been lost. Sure, I'll agree the players and coaches are all human and tempers naturally flare at times. But punching and brawling with the opposite team is ridiculous. Let me start with the players. The Georgetown-Pittsburgh game last weekend comes to my mind first. Two guys begin nudging, then pushing and holding. Next, the two players start throwing punches, the benches clear and, the basketball court looks like a miniature reproduction of the Mardi Gras complete with sweat, blood and uniforms. Of course, the guys get tossed from the game, but that action just promotes remarks like "Did you see that right hook I landed on that chump's left eye?" Well, you're a real big man. Fighting won't add to the victory column. To say one basketball player got the best of another is to say he outscored, outmanuevered, and out-rebounded the other player. Forget the guy who can throw the hardest punch, he's in the wrong sport. I'm sorry, but I don't enjoy seeing guys from South Carolina and Louisville bloodying each other's noses. I want to see who has the best basketball team. As for the coaches, they are the men who can stop this senseless brainbashing on the court. I think it is really strange that the same teams seem to be involved in these big brawls also. I'd like to ask Georgetown's John Thompson what his idea of team motivais. Maybe he feels that it's just not his place to interfere. Or maybe just an unlucky sap who has his team in the wrong place at the wrong I don't know. I do know, though, that Dean Smith's Tarheels manage to keep their noses clean, and the play is no less physical than that I saw on television last Satur day in the two basketball/boxing matches. 1 believe the solution to the problem is in the coaching. Suspending players for "x" number of games or for a season is the job of the coach, not the job of the NCAA officials, unless the coach just continually cannot control his team. When a coach sees a temper beginning to rise or a shove match beginning in­ side, he should know that it is time to bench the player until he has cooled off or settled down. I don't know what an alternative answer is. A penalty box like they use in the NHL would sure work, but I believe the coaches would have something to say about a four-on-five match-up. Mom and Dad wouldn't like a fine slapped on Johnny Superstar for fighting like they do in the NBA either. ^ So come on guys let's stick to making the shots, not landing the punches. I'm tired of seeing more than the player's pride getting hurt. Davidson and ETSU. If you ask Rick Covington, ASU Sports Information Director, then the Mountaineers have as much chance as anyone. "Look down at the teams in the bottom of the standings and they have either beaten or been in close games with Marshall and Furman," Cov­ ington said. VMI is seventh in the conference with a 5-9 record. The Keydets lost to Marshall by one-point in each of their meetings this year. The Apps played Marshall tough at home and threw the game away against Furman. "I have never seen a Southern Con­ ference Tournament as wide open as this one," Covington said. The tournament begins next Friday (March 4th) at the Civic Center in Asheville. The Thundering Herd have already clinched the number one seed and Furman is locked in at number two. After those teams the remaining seeds are up for grabs. If Appalachian wins their remain­ ing two road games, they will most likely be the third seed in the tourna­ ment. 3 0- 0 0- 0 1 0 2 0 Fish 9 2 - 3 2 - 2 0 2 1 1 11 0- 3 2- 2 1 0 4 2 Brown 9 0 - 2 2 - 3 4 0 2 1 3 0- 0 0- 2 0 0 0 0 Cunningham 18 1- 3 1 - 2 6 1 13 3- 4 0- 0 2 0 1 6 Boyd 9 1 - 7 2 - 2 2 0 0 i 3 0- 0 0- 0 0 0 1 0 Bryson 15 5- 6 1- 2 10 1 200 28-65 12-20 29 15 24 72 Totals track tourney in SC doors," Pollock said.

BROWN, Editorial Production Manager The First shouldn't be denied By JAMES F. JARRETT TERESA CHALK, Advertising Production Manager Appalachian Columnist If you don't vote you can't complain Voting apathy at ASU continues to be a problem. For the 1987 Homecoming elections, 1370 students voted. This is equivalent to 12.4 percent of the student body. Homecoming nominees include representatives from a broad range of campus organizations. Did the members of these organizations fail to vote for their own representatives? This low percentage is disappointing and reflects a lack of school spirit. SGA Senate election for 1987-88 did not receive a much higher voter turnout. Only 1717 students, or 15.6 percent of the student body voted in this election. Students should be more concerned about decisions which can directly affect them. S<jA senators represent off-campus students and each residence hall. Senators are the voice of the student body in dealings with the ad­ ministration, and decisions concerning upcoming bills. When selecting senators, students should seek individuals who are responsible, informed about campus issues and concerned about students' needs. The SGA presidential elections will be held from February 29 through March 2. The new president and vice-president should possess the same qualities as those of a good senator. The new SGA leaders are not figureheads. They can make a dif­ ference on this campus if students are willing to share their ideas and concerns. For the last two years, voter turnout for SGA presidential elections has been amazingly low. In the 1986 SGA presidential election, 1775 students voted. This figure is equivalent to approximately 20 percent of the student body at that time. In 1987, voter turnout for the presidential elections were not much higher when 23 percent of the students voted. This previous lack of concern among students is pathetic. Voting, regardless of the issue, is a right and a privilege. Americans take pride in our democracy, yet they refuse to participate in the system. SGA Elections Coordinator, Pat Vickers has developed a new voting system which will facilitate the process for students and increase voter turnout,. open for three days instead of two, and polls will be placedTin more accessible locations such as the cafeteria and Walker Hall. * ' ' ' Everyone should make a conscientious effort to vote. The process takes less than five minutes, but the repercussions will last throughout the 1988-89 academic year, and possibly into the future. Decisions made by the new administration could have lasting effects which could influence ASU for generations to come. I ake time to examine the platforms, become familiar with the issues and question the candidates. Help raise the 20 percent voter turnout to 50 percent or more! .Quotes.

Samuel Johnson, 1709-1784 BLOOM COUNTY When we finally won our independence frorr England in the late 1700's one of the first things our founding fathers did was draft and ratify our Con­ stitution. This being done, they then added 10 amendments called the Bill of Rights stating what the American citizen had the right to do and what he did not. Amendment 1 gave freedom to the American media to report on any and all things with only the stipulation that what is reported is true. Nowhere in the amendment does it make exceptions to the rule concerning any media. Recently, however, the United States Supreme Court has seen fit to say that although public newspapers are free from censorship, high school papers are not. 1 personally cannot see how one group of people can publish the whole truth without fear of censor­ ship while another cannot. Are people afraid of some of the secrets that high school students might bring to light? I have heard people say a school newspaper is written by students who do not know what they are doing and thereby must be "guided" as to what they should write by censorship. Why?

WILLIAMS Appalachian Columnist Many people tend to dislike those who question that which they take for granted. I think this is why people dislike philosophers. Nothing conceivable is exempt from questioning in the study of philosophy. The search for truth leads wherever truth may be found. God, ethics, knowledge, and much more may be questioned. Why does this bother so many people? Philosophy disturbs people because it forces them to think! Bertrand Russell wrote: "Thought is subversive, and revolutionary, destructive and terrible; thought is merciless to privilege, established institut ions, and comfortable habitats; thought is anarchic and lawless, indifferent to authority, THANK G00PNES5 FOR ALL THE PSYCHOBABBLE SELF-HELP AVAILABLE.. THESE CERTAINLY ARE TOUGH TIMES FOR PEOPLE TO COPE WITH RIGHT HOW EASY THEY MUST HAVE HAP IT IN THE OLP PAYS... To the Editor: I am writing in reply to an article in The Appalachian entitled "Park­ ing Problems National Issue." I found this article to be a complete failure in everything I consider to be journalism. Eric D. Miller was right when he tried to keep people from blaming ASU security for a lack of parking at ASU. One thing that he was wrong about is that ASU spends its money on textbooks. ASU does not pay one red cent for textbooks, because it is paid for by the students in general fees. The bookstore is a careless to the well-tried wisdom of the ages." Philosophy will pursue knowledge to the very gates of Hell if truth so leads. Philosophy forces us to ques­ tion our own beliefs, traditions and accepted absolutes. Christianity fears philosophy because it questions everything that religion is. Fear of destroying our beliefs, holds us from questioning them. However, one easily overcomes his fears when the desire to know over­ takes and drives him to search for truth. Aristotle said "All men by nature desire to know." Unfortunately, this is not always true in our society. We desire to uphold tradition, and since trutffmay upset that, we remain ignorant. If we would attempt to understand other self-supporting entity which is separate from the university. I also do not think that professors' salaries nor construction of buildings should be sacrificed for parking. Eric D. Miller caps off his remarks by coming to the conclusion that Ronald Reagan himself denies students at Appalachian plentiful arid convenient parking. How this conclusion was reached I will never understand. Eric writes: ".. .my ultimate reason for the parking problems here at ASU: Ronald Reagan doesn't find education very impor­ tant." What in the world does con­ venient parking have to do with education? Besides, ASU is a state V To the Editor: I am one who tolerates diversity of opinion and I believe in the rights of individuals to express their beliefs however unpopular they may be without social or legal prohibition. My opinion on this matter may be unpopular in this university environ­ ment, but I would hope a university as liberal as ASU could tolerate my opinion on this.

I hear that term all the time but rarely do I get a definition. However, Mark Woods, an Appalachian columnist, defined one as a person whose religious beliefs are based on a literal interpretation of the Bible. Paula Childers in her highly critical article on Pat Robertson neglected to define what a fundamentalist is. As a Christian, I've yet to meet a literalist. I've yet to meet anyone who has plucked out his eye or cut off one of his limbs because it offended him (Mt. 18:8, 9). I've never met a Christian who hated his family or carried a cross everyday following Christ (Lk. 14:26, 27). How could anyone follow Jesus around anymore? He is no longer present on this earth but seated in the heavenly realms (Eph. 2:6). I don't know anybody who claims to be either salt or light in the literal sense either (Mt. 5:13-16). Neither do I know anyone who believes that Jesus is really a lamb, a door, or a loaf of bread. If there are people who read the Bible this way, why not call them literalists. The media likes to throw ter­ ideas, we would be able to live in harmony. There are many misconceptions about philosophers. Some include the ideas that philosphers are atheists, philosophers are lazy, and that philosophers don't know what they believe in. Philosophy does not require one to become an atheist, give up traditional values, or accept others' ideas. Although this may occur, you can retain your own beliefs while ques­ tioning their validity. Many of your beliefs will be strengthened by ques­ tioning them. Others will fall under the axe of reason. Many philosophers argue that God does not exist or is dead. However, I contend the study of philosophy forces one to come to a religious belief. Francis Bacon wrote, "It is university, and, thus, gets most of its money from the state. So, Eric, go ahead and blame Jim Martin because you can't seem to park out­ side your front door. Perhaps the most important thing that has been overlooked is that even if Ronald Reagan did not like education, or want to spend money on it, he would have to somehow convince the democratically-controlled Congress and state legislature to cut funding, which is not very likely. I came to Appalachian to learn, not for convenience in parking. Besides, the solution cannot be in buying more land, because that has been discussed before, and there is simply no land which Appalachian minology around and label Chris­ tians. They want us to feel guilty and somewhat inferior, as if our views are biased and bigoted, while their views are somehow more enlightened. This is especially true when they cannot neglect the Chris­ tian viewpoint. When this occurs, the media often uses loaded ter- ' minology to put such a viewpoint in the worst possible light. A Christian viewpoint when publicized often gets referred to as right-wing fundamen­ talism, sectarianism, mindless orthodoxy, or puritanism. All such terms convey to the reader the notion that Christians are uneducated religious bigots who are not worth listening to. In a book entitled Book Burning author Cal Thomas puts it plainly.' l he modern censors first manipulate and redefine language in a way that makes any challenge to their rule-setting appear intolerant and narrow minded. Whatever they (media) say, no matter how onedimensional, no matter how blasphemous or scatalogical, must betreatedwith profound reverance. But Cod help anyone who utters the mildest protest or suggests that an alternative view should also be presented.

I believe if a student writes an article that is incorrect or slanderous in intent or style then that ar­ ticle should be barred from the paper. However, why should something that is accurate and informative be censored? Under the new system, if a high school student found out a particular teacher was being unfair to students in some way, and the student had evidence to prove it he still could not do a thing. Teachers with tenure are very difficult to Challenge even if they are obviously in the wrong. By taking away the students rights to write about this you also cut off one of an already low number of resources open to the student. The above is a rather radical example, but students are being censored for far less with much less reason. The student today has to watch every word he or she prints because it may offend some­ one. In life everyone is going to be offended or upset by something, and trying to censor student newspapers to make them non-offensive is about as far from the real world as you can get. Now that the censorship people have won a major victory at the high-school level, it can not be long before they make a similar attempt at the college level and beyond.

I hear complaints now about President Reagan's policies. The people who complain the loudest are most often those who do not even take the time to register, much less cast their ballot. I also hear complaints about University Fee increases. In this case, too, the people who whine the loudest are those who do not vote in student elections (a ridiculous 80 percent of the student body). We are taught history (it has been said) so that we are not condemned to repeat it. I am reminded of an event in the past of our great nation in which certain individuals stayed home on election day because they felt the issue at stake was "stupid." They believed that in no way would something as "ridiculous" as this issue be passed. These people turned out to be wrong. The next day they awoke and prohibition was in effect. Although it is too late to Register for the primary, I urge each and every one of you to register to vote. Register in your home county or in Watauga County. Wherever you do register, vote.

And if God is needed at the begin­ ning of the process, then it is just as easy to let Him be resporisible for the initial creation and the species as we essentially know them today.

While watching C-SPAN, I notice that when they show Congress voting on a bill and flash the "yays" and nays across the screen, they always play some sickly, drab, boring elevator music. Then, later on, C-SPAN actually has the audacity to have someone come on one of its talk shows and complain of how Con-' gressmen don't even show up to vote on most bills. Now why is that? Is it any wonder that most Congressmen don't show up with that elevator music playing? What C-SPAN ought to do is play something that will get both the Congressmen and the view­ ing public really hoppin' and involved in the legislative process.

Winkler residence hall in particular has experienced more than its share of the damage. "There appears to be more students who have total disreguard to human courtesy at­ tributed to human beings," Winkler Residential Director Bob Nelson said. Nelson added he is particularly disturbed about the abuse of the fire station facilities. "For example," Nelson said, "if damage is inflicted upon fire safety equipment on the tenth floor, then the tenth floor pays. What saddens me most is the fact that students who witness such acts do not wish to get involved." Most residential area damages are in­ flicted by individuals who do not reside in that particular area. Only 20 to 25 percent of the offenders are caught and the majority go free at the expense of the residents, Nelson said.

From her house, a little over 'an acre a„ay, she heard David and I screaming and yelling and throwing each other against the walls. When all the dust settled, there was a hole in the wall to explain to Mom and Dad when they got home. I'm not real sure, but I think that I put it there in an attempt to kick my brother in the shin. As you can probably guess, neither one of us remembers what the Fight was about. It happened about seven or eight years ago, and it will go down in the Anderson family history as a classic. break u From the time I could walk and talk until the end of high school, David and I picked at and harassed each other continually. Once I was mad at him for something, and I proceeded to rip his picture out of his junior high annual That must have hurt his feelings real bad, and I regret doing it Sorry Dave' He's never done anything intentionally malicious to me, but he has hurt me unintentionally. My senior year of high school, he totalled his car The whole family sat up all night, waiting for him to come home. We didn't know where he was or what had happened to him. We saw him the next day, and when I found out that he had slid 187 feet down an embankment, flipping his car several times and finally getting thrown out unhurt, I felt real lucky to have a brother. When someone has always been a part of your life, you tend to take them for granted. If he would have died, a big part of me would have too. Not too long after this, David decided to try the Air Force. I thought that I would be happy not having David around for a while to "bug" me. I came to the realization that I wouldn't be seeing him for a long time, or that perhaps I wouldn't see him again, ever.

My friend was much more adventurous and ordered an oatburger with a bowl of bean almondine. The waffles were great! They were thick and tasted somewhat like bread. The fruit topping consisted of fresh bananas, apples, pears, and pineap­ ples, which were sliced into generous chunks. The oatburger was served on a large whole grain bun and was topped with a creamy tofu spread. The bean almondine soup had a lumpy con­ sistency somewhat like oatmeal.

Dr. John Turner of the sociology and social work department designed and created this project. Not all volunteers are social work or other "helping professions" ma­ jors; students from almost every academic department have volunteered. Community response also has been favorable. Local businesses have donated refreshments for the training sessions. One restaurant is offering $1 off meals to students volunteers. The initial funding for this project has been provided by ACTION, a federal domestic volunteer agency, but assistance from other areas is re­ quired. The sociology and social work department and social work program have supported this program by giv­ ing Turner time to serve as coor­ dinator, and providing clerical sup­ port, office space, supplies and copy­ ing services. Community response also has been favorable. Local businesses have donated refreshments for the training sessions. One restaurant is offering $1 off meals to student volunteers. Other university departments have contributed as well.

Faculty members throughout the university have made announcements and allowed us to recruit from their classes.

The Counseling Center is working with Student Health Services to help these individuals work toward a goal of healthful eating habits. In addition the Counseling Center will be offering several career counsel­ ing programs this semester. A career conversations group is a combined effort between the Career Planning and Placement office and the Counseling Center. "We are offering a series of group workshops for students who are try­ ing to figure out what they want to do with their lives," Sanz said. He added that anyone interested in the program should contact the Career Planning and Placement Office or the Counseling Center. A new career counseling program will be added this spring. "Yo Career" is a program in which student counselors help other students make career choices with the aid of a computer system. Three computer systems will be located on the second floor of the Student Union to aid students in exploring occupational goals. "We are now in the process of recruiting students who might wish to be career counselors," Sanz said. Residents get involved RSA on the move By ANDREA ANDERSON Assistant Et Cetera Editor The Resident Student Association's purpose is to act as a student volunteer organization to determine the development needs of on-campus students according to Rick Geis, Associate Director of Resident Life. There are three levels to the RSA, these being the residence level, made up of representatives from each floor of a building, the cluster RSA, made up of representatives from each building in one of the four clusters, and Campus RSA (CRSA), made up of representatives from across the campus. last semester, which were well receiv­ ed and attended by many on-campus students. "We feel good about that, and we hope that continues to grow," Geis said. Geis said the money for these pro­ grams comes out of the housing fee that every on-campus resident pays. It amounts to about $5 per semester. Students getting involved in RSA is important, and it is one way of students finding out where their money is going, Geis said. Next year, Residence Life is hoping to institute a leadership program for their RSA members. Oyer the past three years leadership has improved according to Geis. "The leadership has improved so much over what it was before," he said. "Our program is only about three years old," Geis said. Before ASU had a RSA program, there was the Residence Life Associa­ tion. That method had its drawbacks, according to Geis. He said the pro­ gram then was similar to RSA, but was sporadic. It only existed in some halls across campus, and it didn't cover all of them as RSA does today. Geis also feels the old way of doing things didn't meet student needs ef­ fectively. An RSA member learns much from their experience. They learn how to plan Geis said, and they also get a bet­ ter understanding of an organiza­ tional structure and learn how to be more assertive because of their in­ volvement. "There wasn't any structure to it," Geis said. "Our sole purpose is to meet the programming needs of the student," he said, in reference to the fact that RSA is not connected with student government. Geis said over 700 students were in­ volved in the planning of programs Geis said they are fortunate to have the students getting involved in RSA. Ultimately, the Resident Student Association is here for the students, and it is fitting that it is made up of students. "If it weren't for the students, the organization wouldn't exist," Geis said. "We are looking for people who are personable, good listeners, and who are willing to commit some time for working with other students." Students interested in the program must have a 2.5 GPA and good interpersonal skills. Further informa­ tion on becoming a student counselor can be obtained at the Counseling Center. ' 'What we want to do is continue to design good group programs that students can take part in to prevent problems from happening," Sanz said. "So that students can learn to deal with problems as they occur before they get too serious." Photo contest The Appalachian photo contest is on. Photograph deadline for "Nasty Habits" is March 14. The winning photos will run on March 17. Other photograph deadlines are on April 7 with the theme "Indulgence" and the final contest deadline on April 28 with the theme of "Ends."

Only one prob Ian; it was also hell for true college basketball fans To start with the good side, there was a plethora of games for all taste. The jgEast, the Big Ten the Metro, and several interesting intersectional games of national import and interest found their way onto local screens. For ASU fans, the Mountaineers were on the tube also To all the fans in the northeast who have labored in silence and anonymity S'lSS*"" ™" "vc forevtr A""" The media has been harping on Temple's schedule. They say the Owls have . bunch of second rate pats.es on their slate. Rhode Island, La Salle, West Virginia, and UNLV beg to differ. Why is basketball returning to the Big Apple and the City of Brotherly Love? For years, the traditional powers of college basketball (UCLA UNC UK) were able to go anywhere in the country and recruit. Now due to ESPN coverage and the 64 team format of the NCAA playoffs, the players from the city schools are choosing to stay closer to home. Not only are teams such as Syracuse and Temple pulling players from the Northeast, they are also suc­ cessfully recruiting in other sections of the country. Perhaps finally, the NCAA has achieved what it has wanted for so long parity. No longer does one team dominate the polls or play on the hardwood! Every year sees new heroes and new teams shooting at-the elusive goal of a national championship. As for the bad in basketball over the weekend, one need look no farther than the Louisville-South Carolina and the Georgetown-Pittsburgh games. It has been stated many times before, but just for the record, fighting does not belong on the basketball court. Sometime in the very near future the NCAA is going to have to implement a viable plan to combat the increasing numbers of on-court skirmishes. Some teams are more susceptible to on-court fights than others. Frustrating defensive teams who play a physical man-to-man defense tend to have more flare-ups than most. Georgetown is on almost once a month throwing another Big East team around on the Boor. I refuse to believe that one team consistent­ ly provokes fights. It takes two to tango. Teams become frustrated when thev jcan't turn around without having a Hoya in their shorts. In some instances, the referees allow the game to get out of hand. When ASU went to ETSU, the officials allowed a physical style and also let players run their mouths on the court. Anyone watching knew that in a rivalry like ETSU-ASU, an incident was only minutes away. Sure enough, there were two pushing matches that postponed play for several minutes. The NCAA must come up with a comprehensive plan to deal with fights. A few suggestions: 1. If a player throws the first punch, he is ejected from the game and forced to sit out the next five. 2. If a player comes off the bench to participate, he is gone for ten games. 3. Any player involved as the instigator in more than two incidents is gone for the year. 4. Any team involved in more than five fights is ineligible for post season play. As the Southern Conference women's basketball season nears its conclusion, the Lady Mountaineers are beginning to hit their tournament stride. Over the last week, the Lady Apps have defeated the East Ten­ nessee Lady Bucs 83-71 and avenged an earlier loss to UT-Chattanooga 99-79. Following an important win over Western Carolina, ASU travelled to Johnson City last Wednesday to take on ETSU. Led by the sparkling play of senior Valorie Whiteside, ASU vaulted to an early lead and cruised to an 83-71 win. The Lady Mountaineers started slow in the game while the Lady Bucs went into this game with fire in their eyes. ETSU's inspired defense held ASU scoreless for the first 2:47. Final­ ly, ASU's Debbie Swicegood con­ nected on a shot that started the avalanche that was to bury ETSU. Following a 17-footer from ASU's Kim Johnson, ETSU's Debbie Richardson called a timeout with her team trailing 13-8. The first five minutes had seen Valorie Whiteside score 7 points, record several steals, and dominate the paint and boards. The senior Ail-American finished the game with 28 points, 13 rebounds, and 5 steals in only 26 minutes of play. She (Whiteside) is a good player. You know she is always capable of "ASU always plays sound defense. They are just a good defensive team. On offense, if you have the ball and relax for even a split second, you're dead." Debbie Richardson ETSU Head Coach taking over a game. Val is a great player who has done this to us on a number of occasions," said ETSU Head Coach Richardson. The superior personnel of ASU came to the forefront and by halftime the lead had bulged to 42-23. ETSU had to contend not only with the Lady Mountaineers, but also with their lack of players. The Lady Bucs are presently dressing only six women. The defense on Katie Beck and Missy Marvin by Marcheta Sigmon, Beth Laney, Peggy Roda, and Whiteside frustrated the ETSU of­ fense and Beck sat out the final three minutes of the half with two fouls.

Coach Richardson game," Richardson added. On Saturday, the Lady Moun­ taineers took a gigantic step towards the regular season Southern Con­ ference crown by defeating the UTChattanooga Lady Mocs 99-79. Earlier in the season, UT-C beat the Lady Apps in Chattanooga 67-63. In Boone, however, ASU was not to be denied. "We wanted this basketball game more than any other before. After the loss on January 23, the ladies wanted to play UT-C again the next day. We have been waiting for this match-up for a month," ASU Head Coach Lin­ da Robinson said. The game was fast-paced and high scoring from start to finish. UT-C tried to defend Whiteside early after she had scored seven quick points. Jane Dalton recognized the need for an outside game to free up Whiteside and calmly swished a three-point field goal. After a timeout with 15:24 remain­ ing in the half, the Lady Mocs at­ tempted to press ASU. The strategy proved lacking as the Lady Moun­ taineers ran off six quick points. Near the end of the half, UT-C made its best run at the Lady Apps behind their All-American, Regina Kirk. Kirk assaulted the offensive boards and by the time the buzzer sounded, ASU was only up 46-38. Valorie Whiteside and Regina Kirk dueled in the paint for the first minutes of the second half. The two teams jockeyed back and forth until UT-C closed the gap to five on Patricia Powell's two free throws 65-60. the starters and expanded the lead un­ til the final buzzer. Appalachian State showed all five starters in double figures. Valorie Whiteside led the scoring parade with 31. Beth Laney had 18, Swicegood had 17, Dalton had 13, and Johnson had 12. Jane Dalton expanded her lead in the Southern Conference assist race by garnering 13 on Saturday. Whiteside led the way with 10 re­ bounds. ASU shot 63 percent from the floor for the game while holding UT-C to only 41 percent. More indicative of the intensity of ASU's concentration was their shooting 79 percent from the charity stripe. The only bad mark on ASU's postgame report card was their work on the defensive boards. The Lady Mountaineers allowed 21 offensive rebounds. "We had a defensive game plan that I think we executed to perfection," Robinson said. "The in­ tensity on defense was incredible." "We knew we could make the shot consistently from the outside and the inside. Jane Dalton and Valorie Whiteside played like All-Americans."

The junior guard sank three straight shots and played very physical defense to jet ASU to an 11 point lead.

Sean Moore Club Captain and Coach Last Saturday, the team recorded an additional victory as the BelmontAbbey team lost by forfeit when they failed to field enough players to com­ pete. The team's schedule includes three more tournaments, with one scheduled in Virginia Beach at Old Dominion as an East Coast Cham­ pionship. Junior Sean Moore is the club's captain and coach. He is hopeful for a great season and some great perfor­ mances from key players like junior Don Cornwall who the team members have dubbed "Mr.Rugby." "The team has really come on strong this year. We all really ap­ preciate the support we have received from the ASU students. I'm sure they are impressed with our performance on the field," he said. The rugby team's last home mat­ ches of the season will be held on April 16th and April 23rd. The April 23rd match will be a double-header against the University of Georgia and Georgia Tech. Moore hopes to lure many first-time rugby fans to the mat­ ches. "If we can get the fans to the mat­ ches, I'm sure they would like the game," he said. Anyone interested in playing for the team should contact Sean Moore or David Cox, the team's club president. Practices are held from 4-6 p.m. Mon­ day through Thursday on the field behind Conrad Stadium. In addition to new fans, the team hopes to lure new players to the team also.

There are plans to construct 1,000 food irradiation centers, each using a supply of spent fuel rods from reactors. In 1982, Congress put a ban on the 'hazardous reprocessing' of such rods in order to lessen the possibility of terrorists obtaining the material and constructing an atomic bomb. The thought is that if such centers are allowed to begin operating, the Department of Energy will press Con­ gress to lift that ban in order for the centers to get more of the necessary processing material without as much red tape; however, it would also enable others to get the fuel rods just as easily, which is why the ban was placed in the first place.

Having an unknown women are Appalachian Columnist The 1988 Winter Olympics at (-&lSciry, Canada are now well under way. The American public as well as a large percentage of the world is now spending their nights by the TV or radio keeping up on the events. Americans aren't all that different from people of other countries. We all want our athletes to do their best and come home with the medals; but do we do enough to show this? I have heard many people com­ plaining about how few medals the United States athletes are getting, or are in the running for. This is a natural reaction, but if one considers the facts, the reasons for this become much more complex than just inferior athletes. The United States is, in many ways, the richest country in the world. Despite this, our government gives almost nothing to our Olympic athletes while other countries spend millions upon millions. When an athlete is sanctioned by his or her government they are assured the best in training equip­ ment, facilities, and trainers. Without such funding the athletes must seek outside sponsors to finance their training. Up until now sponsors were relatively easv to find. What company would not like to be able to say "Proud sponsor of the U.S. Olympic Team?" However, with the new tax laws going into effect this may change. Giving money to charity or non­ profit organizations not only gives a sense of helping but it is also a tax deduction. Or at least it used to be: under the new legislation it is not.

ROTC policy is reprehensible To the Editor: I am a senior at ASU, and over the past two years I have been in­ volved in the ROTC program on campus. I have had to do many dif­ ficult things while participating in ROTC. Until recently it has been rewarding. However, I now find myself being coerced to do something deceptive and morally wrong. Last week the officer in charge of recruitment for ROTC, Major Carl Ward, entered our military science classroom and spoke to the seniors present. Major Ward told us every senior cadet will be required to recruit at least one sophomore stu­ dent and convince that student to sign a contract obligating them to military service. Seniors who fail to get at least one sophomore to com­ mit will have their grades in the three credit hour class dropped one full letter grade. " li li tory course who have not con­ tracted.

Effective January 1, 1987, under the Tax Reform Act, all scholarships and grants including the Pell grant and out-of-state waivers will con­ stitute taxable income. Athletic awards fall under this category and will be treated as grants and scholar­ ships. "This has an effect on the 1988 tax­ able calendar year for students who are filing income taxes now," Assis­ tant Director of Financial Aid Wesley Weaver said. "Students are likely to owe addi­ tional tax dollars because of this," Weaver said. "Students are likely to owe additional tax dollars because of this." Wesley Weaver Asst.

Students in the process of filling out tax forms should add up all grant and scholarship money received in a calendar year and subtract this from the total paid in tuition and fees, books, supplies and equipment. The difference will be the amount that the student owes. "It's important to do it this way so that you don't end up paying more than you should," Weaver said. It is the responsibility of the student to file federal tax returns to claim ex­ emption from their gross income. By STANNA SIMANDLE Appalachian Staff Writer ASU has installed a chapter of Alpha Phi Sigma, the only honor society for criminal justice majors and minors in the nation. The chapter at ASU had been ap­ proved by the university and is awaiting final national approval. Na­ tionwide Alpha Phi Sigma has 120 chapters. The ASU chapter has been organiz­ ed by professor of criminal justice Dr. Charles Fields, Charter President Laura McGee, Vice President Glenn Roseman and Secretary-Treasurer Joseph Huffman. "I think the honor society is good for criminal justice majors," Fields said. "It will help to improve the criminal justice department," McGee University limits freshman admittance By Si ANNA SIMANDLE Appalachian Staff Writer Freshman class enrollment for Fall 1988 has been lowered in order to cor­ rect an over-enrollment prooiem at ASU. Director of Admission Joe Watts said the expected number of ap­ plicants for next fall is 8,000. This number is up from last year's 7,200, an increase of roughly 10 per cent. Even though the number of ap­ plicants has increased, the number of incoming freshmen will be lower than last year. The freshman class of 1987 numbered 2,000 while only 1,800 freshmen will be admitted next fall. Tnis cutback in enrollment will also affect transfer students whose ap­ plications are up from last year. It s hard to turn away good ap­ plicants," Watts said. ASU will still be accepting applica­ tions, but technically there is no space left for fall enrollment. The Office of Admissions must review all applications and any application sent in now "We're trying to cut back to give the students a better educational environ­ ment. That will help as ASU is overenrolled." Joe Watts Director of Admissions will be placed on the waiting list for admittance.

Callis expressed his reasons for seeking the office. "I think that Gary and I are the best team for the students because we haven't only been concerned with SGA, we've been concerned as students with the problems of our fellow students," Callis said. Schoonmaker feels the strength of the Watson/Schoonmaker ticket lies in their knowledge of how SGA is run. "I feel that Scott and I have more experience in SGA because we've both been senators and committee chairpersons," Schoonmaker said. vironment. That will help as ASU is overenrolled," Watts said. This cutback in enrollment will ease faculty obligations, help with residence nan space, and create smaller classes. Eight-eight percent of ASU ap­ plicants are from North Carolina. So the number of high school graduates in the state is an important figure to the Admissions Office. It is expected that the number of public high school graduates will increase from 66,000 in 1987 to an estimated 68,000 in 1988. "A slight increase, but still we are in an era of decline," Watts said. The number of graduates in the 1970's and early 1980's has been in the 70,000 range. In 1982, 71,210 students graduated from N.C. public high schools, but only 5,000 graduates at­ tended ASU. Despite the declining number of high school graduates, the basic re­ quirements for entrance to ASU are higher. The average SAT scores among the already accepted freshman students is 956, and increase from 934 in 1987. Average class rank and GPA's have also risen. "The most important factor is overall achievement in high school," Watts said. The one real effect a smaller freshman class will have on freshman orientation activities is to create smaller orientation groups. "We can be a little more personal within a small group," Director of Orientation Happy Austin said. Austin also agrees with Watts that the cutback in number will help the university with its enrollment pro­ blem. said. Both agree the society will make all students aware of the criminal justice department and what it has to offer. The present 11 members of Alpha Phi Sigma will have their official in­ duction ceremonies later in the semester. The society hopes for more members next semester, and to in­ clude criminal justice minors next fall. Membership in the society is on an invitation basis only. To be elegible, students must have at least a 3.2 GPA in their criminal justice major or ipinor and a 3.0 cumulative GPA. Students will have to pay national dues of approximately $20 for their first year and $5 for each year of membership. Alpha Phi Sigma is currently laying its foundation this semester, and has already planned activities. Dr. Fields will be attending the an­ nual meeting of the Alpha Phi Sigma chapters in San Francisco this April to obtain more information concerning organization and activities for the ASU chapter. The society will continue to help the Criminal Justice Club with its ac­ tivities. Last semester the society aid­ ed the club in a Career Day and hopes to assist in the Criminal Justice Clubsponsored Law Day at the end of the semester. "I'd like the society to be active. I'm excited about it," Laura McGee said. Alpha Phi Sigma has had one meeting this semester and plans to set up regularly scheduled meetings soon. Dr. Fields feels that through an­ nouncements and response the honor society will grow and progress.

The university is working on setting up internships in Japan and Hawaii for next summer. Despite the fact that the program is relatively new, ASU already has graduates working in the field. Glover said the Business School has graduates working in Hilton Head Island, Orlando, and Puerto Rico. In the program several things are stressed. One is technical skills and how to manage people. Also stressed is basic business skills such as marketing, accounting, and computer r . . training. One way students can find out if their interests lie in this field is to take Survey of Hospitality Industry. It is "There has been a lot of growth in the program and a lot of interest among students." —Dr. Gerald Glover Assoc. Prof, of Management open to students who are at least a sophomore.

This year the number has grown to approx­ imately 200 students. This number correlates with university programs around the country. Ten years ago there were only 50 schools with ma­ jors in this area and today that number has increased to 135 schools. "There has been a lot of growth in the program and a lot of interest among students," Glover said.

Fund raising letters have been sent to ASU alumni who graduated in and before 1961. Roughly $270,000 are needed to move and renovate the house. William Bake of the DHMC says the university has been very cooperative. "I think they don't want to see it torn down, so they're doing everything they can to get it moved and saved," he said. Bake said the need for funds is urgent. "We have to ask businesses and individual residents of Boone, and anyone we can think of," he said. Bake says that fund raising is going slowly so far. "There's a lot of skep­ ticism in Boone, not just about Dougherty house, but whether Boone has a history," he said.

MILLER Appalachian Slaff Writer •'Hey, Jimmy. Since you're graduating in May, what companies are you interviewing with at the Career Planning Office?" I m not sure, Gwynne, but I'm steering clear of insurance companies. No way am I going to sell life in­ surance door to door." Jimmy's concern is typical of graduating seniors. Many think in­ surance companies offer only sales positions, but this is a misconception. "The insurance industry is growing by leaps and bounds," Director of Career Planning and Placement Dr David Ball said. "You can't have commerce without insurance." laking this and the astronomical j premiums paid for insurance into consideration, it's logical that careers j other than sales exist in the insurance industry. II Graduates with business, math, or finance degrees may find open doors Insurance is no longer an industry with one product to sell." R. Kent Wilkinson R. Kent Wilkinson, a 1983 ASU graduate, enjoys the marketing aspect of insuranee. As a territorial marketing representative for Maryland Casualty Insurance Com­ pany s research and development division, he uses his love for the unknown to help the company in­ vestigate new markets for their in­ surance products. Wilkinson's job requires a great deal of travel throughout the state. For the territories he covers, he researches the area j-,i terms of demographics such as age and average income. He finds out what competing insurance companies have to offer. Once this is determined, he can for­ mulate a competitive product should Maryland decide to enter that market. .Insurance is no longer an industry with one product to sell," Wilkinson said Insurance companies, just as marketers of household products, design their products to compete with other insurers. Wilkinson utilizes concepts learned in statistics and marketing. Although a lot of theory is taught in the business college, he said it's quite ap­ plicable in the real world. Second year statistics and Dr. Wesley Patton's marketing simula­ tion game have been extremely helpful. • u ^tadsdcs are very important in my job. If I'd never taken stats, all the research data I deal with would be meaningless," he said. For students thinking about careers in the insurance industry, Wilkinson suggests some strategy. Lots of op­ portunities exist in today's insurance market, he said. In fact, it's a jobhunter's market. It's not uncommon for someone to make a career move to another company in the same city for a $4,000 to $6,000 increase in annual ™anH' "0wever- Wilkinson recom­ mends that a graduate be willing to start low on the pay scale and be pa­ tient with pay raises. Semi-annual salary evaluations are normal at Maryland with an average pay in­ crease of 5 to 15 percent. The insurance industry is growing by leaps and bounds. You can't have commerce without insurance." —Dr. David Ball, Director of Career Planning and Placement Wilkinson said graduates feel pressured to find a job as soon as possible, but they need to look at more than just salary.

Sometimes it is as simple as sending them to WAMI for clothes, or the employment commission or going through the want ads with them," Boone said. The staff members: a director, residential coordinator, part-time office manager, and overnight staff (college students who live in the upper house and work in return for their room and board) undergo training to help them deal with the needs of their residents, but they try to get those in need to the proper agencies in the Watauga area.

One nice "plus" to the meal are the crispy homemade hushpuppies and choice of salad or cole slaw; fries or baked potato that come with each seafood dinner. All the seafood is brought fresh each week from Florida or Wilmington. Sandpiper offers cheesecake, Key Lime Pie and assorted ice creams for dessert. The Key Lime Pie comes with a meringue topping and has a delightful lime-sherbet taste.. Once seated, guests are treated to friendly and prompt service. From seating time to eating time less than 15 minutes elapsed and this was on a weekend night. The decor is a quaint beach house flavor; harpoons on the walls and fish net give it atmosphere. A nice touch of the shore is the built-in aquarium in one wall. On Fridays and Saturdays Bill Hoyle entertains on guitar with light dinner music. Sandpiper gives students a 10 per­ cent discount with an ASU ID. Visa and Mastercard are accepted and take out orders are available. Domestic beer and wine selections are available on request. concern as far as their influence can reach. Like all such services they need more help. Boone cited the major needs of the house as "of course more money, with which many things could be done. We also could use some form of transportation to get the residents to where they need to go (job interviews and other services)." "We need skilled volunteers, plumbers, electri­ cians, even kitchen help so our staff can be elsewhere. We could also use material donations like toiletries, things normally used in a house. We appreciate the support students have given us thus far—we are always in need of help." fSw—rb* Autobiography of Miss or to make an appointment for their By APRIL GRIFFIN Appalachian Et Cetera Editor 1 588-2606 or (803) 546-5300.

I stayed up a while more and talked with them, telling them how I had really missed them that evening when I was all alone and other crap. Lee finally decided to turn in and I chose to do the same. Will sat up a little longer to watch some tube and read my manuscript. I had just begun to get comfortable when my watch went "beep beep" signalling the top of the hour. I rolled over. "What time is it?" "6 a.m." Daybreak. I was awakened the next day (well actually, the same day) by a distinct humming noise. It was Will, standing over me with a smirk on his face. "Time to get up; I let you sleep a full 40 minutes extra!" I looked at the clock. Twenty until one. Six and one half hours' sleep. How generous. I looked back up at Will. He was still smirking. I got up, somewhat more sluggishly than the morning before and stum­ bled off to brush my teeth. Will told me he had found another towel which was semi-clean that I could use if I wished to take a shower. I declined (much later, upon reaching my home in Chario in Charlotte, we found yet another clean towel we could have used in Will's car). Lee was still asleep and, since he had driven by himself from Boone, we decided to let him remain subdued and left him a note about sliding the key under the door when he left.

Keep those hands raised. How many hard core fans out lere? Oh yeah, keep 'em up. So we've established that the Hard are/Punk scene in Boone is not actly thriving. No worry. The Circle rks may just have the remedy for r situation. Like energy in your music? Like to question the establishment? Like wordly conscious lyrics? Like a dry sense of humor? Yeah? Well, maybe you, my dear reader, should endeavor into the Circle Jerks' latest creation, ques tionably deemed "VI". By "questionably," I mean that I am not so sure of the explanation behind the title, "VI"; if I am not mistaken, this is not the Jerks' sixth album. It matters not, however, because I do believe we're here for a review of the album, not a history. s 99 Why not begin the album with the violent plea of a masochist— presumably vocalist, Keith Morris—encouraging the sadist to "Beat Me Senseless?" Yeah, that's good. Greg Hetson grinds the gears to a start with a well-distorted guitar intro that just makes ya' wanna' slam. ..know what I mean? The Circle Jerks are not really a break-neck Hard Core band whose lyrics are so violently screeched out that they cannot be heard (although some might wish this.) Keith Morris screams in the bratty fashion of a young man who might be yelling at his parents, and actually making some good points. His California accent seems to show through, and the vocals can be quite entertaining. The churning interplay of drums and bass guitar (John Ingram and Roger Rogerson, respectively) kick- If ever there was a movie that Robin Williams should have done, Good Morning, Vietnam is it. I'm sure a good many of you have seen it; if you haven't, by all means go soon. Like tonight. The movie centers around Williams as Airman Adrian Cronauer, a per­ sonality right out of the history books of the Vietnam war. Cronauer's trademark greeting, "Goooood mor­ ning, Vietnam!", echoes from the loudspeakers during the first base camp scene in Platoon. The plot is tenuous in its hold on reality, and it's • certainly not the most convoluted or deep of the year, but that's not the point. The point is Robin Williams has finally found a director, namely Barry Levinson, good enough to let the insanity of his stage act come through on the big screen. Levinson, who has directed among other films Diner/The Natural and one of my favorites, Tin Men, understood immediately where his star's comic talents lay and created an on-set atmosphere that made him comfortablable with letting his manic intensity out. What results is a string of rapid-fire jokes, always perfectly in tune with the history of the moment and always hilarious (witness a com­ ment on the Highway Beautification BUI, "which essentially says that the President's daughters can't drive on the highway in a convertible.") Williams has never looked this com­ fortable on-screen, and it's good to see he won't be limited to doing his best work only on the stage. There are about 20 minutes of on-air footage of Williams, all of which is ad-libbed—a real tribute to the research Williams did for the role. The rest of the movie centers on Cronauer's attempts at dating a Viet­ namese lady (played by Jintara Sukapatana, one of Thailand's most famous actresses,) and his peculiar friendship with her younger brother. Cronauer sees the lady on the sidewalk on his way to the radio sta­ tion for the first time, and again later that day as he is sitting in a bar. He follows her to where she is taking an English class, pays the serviceman teaching it to let him take over, and proceeds to work his way into her life, where he learns of the many dif­ ferences between his culture and hers. Later, the story's emphasis shifts from Cronauer's relationship with the woman to his friendship with her brother, and makes points about U.S. involvement in Vietnam that others have made far more strongly and effectively. This part of the movie would not have stood on its own but, as I said before, it doesn't have to. Levinson and writer Mitch Markowitz have Robin Williams, whose magnetism is at times blinding, and watching this performance is so easy that nothing but "Wow!" ever crosses your mind. The cast (which includes as bar owner Jimmy Wah, Cu Ba Nguyen, a Vietnamese refugee who was held for five years as a military prisoner before bicycling to Cambodia and being smuggled to Thailand in a truck) sup­ ports the film at all times, but it is Williams who makes it shine. There is enough substance to make Good Morning, Vietnam more than a star vehicle, but there is really only one reason to go and see it, and his name is Robin Williams. TEST YOUR KNOWLEDGE.

The song addresses the snooping, nosy people who always seem to show up when there is some sort of accident or personal harm done to someone. Maybe this intro is to attract those peoples' attention who would hope the train would meet with catastrophe. Moving to the album's fifth track the dangers of all living things are addressed; in one song! Yes, the possibility of fatality by automobile, endangered animals, the rampant, frightening AIDS virus, and nuclear holocaust all wrapped into an exploding package called "Protec­ tion." "You need protection, I need pro­ tection too," Morris yells. "I'm Alive" is a fierce track with a condescending outlook on those in society who distort their lives and bodies with the abuse of alcohol and drugs.

He is relief from the ulL^^cf onon the hardwood in Varsity Gym and on the turf in Conrad Stadium In addition, Yosef acts out the emotions we all feel when ASU is rolling dominating, and winning.

He is the most popular cheerleader and the most ob e game. He is the ballgame during timeouts and at halftimes He's the entertainment. Most of the students at ASU do not know who John Ballard is.

If you were one of the more than 3,800 people who attended the UT-Chattanooga game, you got to see Ballard a la Yosef. Ballard's head on Yosef's body? It was a really 3 strange sight! The sight made me realize that it was Ballard who made Yosef the wonder ful mascot he is. He transformed the uniform into the Mountaineer persona He knew how to spark the crowd and showed us the crazy antics that any reguar fan would look obnoxious or stupid doing. He was the "inner Yosef in all of us. Yosef, like the athletes, is a player. He is out on the floor or field to win. His victory is in winning the crowd's support for the team, which in turn lets the athletes know their fans are there and are ready to cheer them on to a victory John Ballard now moves on to try and bring new life to the Atlanta Braves mascot.

In fact, ^taiio e!";year-°ld, who attends High School has dreams Ui . uicams of being an Olympian. There are not many people at age 16 with such lofty goals, yet Harding has the natural ability, and with some hard work, anything can happen. "When I went out to Colorado, I first realized there were a large number of skiers better than I." Jim Harding, Jr. Senior, Chapel Hill There is a story that gives evidence of his ability and desire to compete. This season he entered a race open only to eighteen-year-olds and older. In essence, Jeff told a little white lie and placed 7th competing with skiers from UNC, ASU, and several other colleges. It is safe to say that Jeff wants to win at any level. The real question is where does a young guy like Jeff obtain the drive to set such for sea suv... high goals *«. himself? Enter the scene older brother Jim Harding, Jr. Jim, a senior at Chapel Hill, has had a very formidable collegiate career as a skier. He skied on the ASU ski team for 2 years and has 2 Southern Conference championships to show for it. Jim also qualified for the Nationals in the spring of 1986. Out of 70 or 75 participants, he raced ' 39th in the giant slalom. The race was held in Killington, VT. —Coach Apke "Jerry keyed us. He was reluctant to start in the second half, but his in­ side defense and aggressiveness was crucial," Apke said. Holmes picked up a sluggish of­ fense and helped keep the Moccasins point total down in second half. Of course, some coaching words during the first timeout of the half didn't hurt. "I tried to reinforce good play so we could cut the halftime lead," Apke said. The Apps went on to win. As for Christian's heroics Apke was not that surprised. "We wanted to run a special play," he said. The fact that Christian stole the ball with one tick remaining on the clock and put it in is extremely special. Th6 result was an unexpected end to a game filled with ups and downs. "We were fortunate that Christian grabbed the ball and made the shot. Follow shots win ball games," Apke said. The Apps now go on the road for their remaining four conference games, games that will decide how good this team really is. If they can win the back to back games at Mar­ shall and Davidson, they will have a great deal of momentum going into the SC tournament. Yet at this point in the season, defeating this team that finished 7-21 one year ago has proven most difficult and seems to be the most sought victory for conference rivals. The choice of going west is one that matches Jeffs' goals. "I am looking at Colorado Moun­ tain College because it is a top 42 ski college," Jeff said. It's easy to see, then, where Jeff gets his competitive attitude. If the younger Harding wants to succeed in the talent-filled sport of skiing, he must learn from his brother's experiences. "When I went out to Colorado, I first realized there were a large number of skiers better than I," Jim said. Jim admits Jeff has the talent to be a competitive collegiate skier, yet the road to Olympic stardom is a much rougher one, paved by hard work and dedication. He firmly agrees the off-season work he will be subjected to in college will be essential to his progress. Jeff has progressed steadily since his first year on skis at age 7. His father, Jim Sr., never really pushed Jeff or his brother. "I always am behind what my kids do just as long as they try their hardest. They have made me proud," Jim, Sr. said. Jeff wants to go away to college and is seriously looking at Colorado Mountain College. The choice of leaving North Carolina is one that Jim feels his brother must make. "If I were to do it all over again, I would probably go either up north or out west," Jim saiu. „Cst, juu said. The fact is Jeff Harding has made everyone proud lately. With his vic­ tory in the Sugarcup Slalom two weeks ago, an event for eighteen-andunders, Jeff is satisfied with his improvement in 1987.

There are still many races left in 1987. After traveling to Winterplace, WVA this weekend, he will prepare for the "big" race on March 4. The race is called The Chrysler Plymouth All-American Ski Series National Championship, and as tough as the title is to say, the race is that much tougher. Placing in the top four is both Jeff's and Jim's goal because they would then be members of the Eastern United States Recreational Ski Team. A finish in the top four is the ultimate 1987 goal for Jeff. In a few years when Jeff leaves the mini-hills of the North Carolina high country and his alma mater at Watauga High, he will take a year off from school and figure out what he wants to do. Quite possibly, he will be raking in trophies in Colorado or Vermont. Who knows, he might even try to make it somewhere in the Alps. Whatever the decision, Jeff has the intensity, desire, and talent to make it in life. in life. Senior Yalorie Whiteside has jersey retired at ASU BY Holmes ASU o o Jeff Harding holds fast "If there are basketball gods, they smiled down on us in tonight's game." o o Sure, I m excited about the next generation Yosef and who he might be, but 1 m also a little sad to see the Ballardian Era of Yosef end. Until the new Yosef is chosen, I guess it is appropriate to say farewell to the atosef that John Ballard created. So goodbye, Yosef. I'll sure miss you. In a game in which technical fouls, momentum changes, and an unex­ pected hero were the highlights, ASU's men's basketball team clipped UT-Chattanooga 67-65 Tuesday night at Varsity Gym. The eighth win in their last 10 games gives the Mountaineers a 16-8 overall record, more importantly, though, an 8-4 conference mark. The Apps can attribute this victory to their junior forward Ronnie Christian. With the score tied 65-65 Christian tossed up a three-footer at the buzzer for the two-point margin of victory. In the first half it looked as though the Moccasins would win the bout without much of a problem as the Mountaineers shot a dismal 32 per­ cent, 8 of 25 from the field. Yet UT-C only led at intermission by the score of 31-26. In the second half, the Moun­ taineers picked up the intensity and, with sixteen minutes to play, cut the deficit to 35-34. With 13:52 to play a crucial technical foul was called on the UT-C bench and Kemp Phillips' two free throws gave the Apps their first lead at 40-39. On their next possession, Rodney Peel hit on a three-point bomb for ASU extending the lead to 43-39. Jerry Holmes, who finished with 12 points in 18 minutes of play was then called for a technical foul with 10:31 to play. Still, the momentum stayed with the home team and Phillips' three-pointer with 3:18 left gave ASU a six point lead. The game then turned in favor of the Mocs. They scored with 1:28 re­ maining, cutting the Apps lead to 65-63. UT-C then called a quick timeout to work on their defense strategy. There were 45 seconds left in the game when ASU threw the ball away. The turnover led to a nine-foot jumper by Shendi Moon and tied the score at 65. The Mountaineers brought the ball down the floor and quickly called a timeout. The Apps had 18 seconds to play and decided to run a special play to free Phillips up for a shot. The plan backfired, though, when UT-C countered by double-teaming Phillips. Phillips, then, dished the ball off to Peel, and with 10 seconds left, Peel threw up a 20-foot desperation shot. Peel's miss was grabbed by UTC and just as they attempted to call a timeout, Christian snatched the ball from his hands and burried the ball in the basket as time expired. The victory, as Coach Apke ex­ plained, was a nice gift. "If there are basketball gods, they smiled down on us in tonight's game," he said. If Apke's comments were made in reference to the App's play in the first half, then they are perfectly understandable. In the second half, though, Appalachian played intense, inspired basketball. The most inspir­ ing of players continues to be a senior center Jerry Holmes, who played most of the second half. of league-leading Marshall. The team still has big games remaining at ETSU and Marshall and a home game against the Lady Moccasins of UT-C. If the Apps could win all three of these games, it would put them in a good position to gain an at-large bid into the NCAA's. "We deserve it more than anyone; this team does not get as much credit as we deserve. If we do get the bid, I think we'll surprise a lot of people," Whiteside said. One thing is for sure, no one will ever again wear the number 33 jersey worn by Valorie Whiteside. And it may be quite a while before such a dominating talent is again seen on the hardwood floor of Varsity Gym. "I can't describe how I felt when my number was retired, it's hard to put such a special feeling into words," Whiteside said.

In the past, the Appalachian men's tennis team has held on to a winning tradition. As the new season unfolds, they hope to swing into another win­ ning year led by Coach Bob Light. Although the team lost last year's number one ranked player in the state, Laneal Vaughn, they hope to open into a promising season of play. This year Shawn Crosby, Rodrich Pierce, Dan Mackin and Tim Smith return to provide experience and leadership for the team. The team has many rookies who tend to be promis­ ing as well. They are Kevin Leary, David Pharr, David Riggsbee, George Harris, Taylor Smarr and David . Smith. Last year the team finished the season with a 12-11 record and ended up the season ranked fifth. This year Coach Light seems to think they will do about the same. Due to the overall inexperience of the team he does not expect an exceptionally great season, but over all it may prove to be promis­ ing. "If they work hard and improve, then we will have a good season," he said. Coach Light has led ASU's tennis team for many years now and has been very successful in each of those years. The teams of the past rate him as one of their greatest assets due to his hard work and determination. He spends a large amount of time work­ ing with the team in order that they might reach their fullest possible potential. With determination and Coach Light's leadership, this year's team looks as if it can hold on to the See TENNIS Page 10 �10 THE A PPALA CtljlAN, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1988 Swimming offers top-notch fitness By JAMIE MOSER Special (o (be Appalachian As you well know, Spring Break is just around the corner.

Absentee ballots are easy to obtain and are well worth the effort to fill out. Primaries will determine the presidential candidates. It is important to vote on Super Tuesday to ensure the candidate of your choice is represented.

SGA elections are scheduled for February 29 through March 2 Students have the opportunity to hear the issues and choose the 'can­ didate who will best represent the student body. Student elections are important because the new administration will choose cabinet members to lead the SGA and represent students.

ASU popularity is growing nationally Parkway defacing immature I've had mv window onen for at least 10 hi,nrc in Hi iiours my open for the last five days, a sure sign Spring is approaching. The birds are getting vocal, the snow is melting, and the Parkway is calling. I, for one, tend to listen more than I should when all that nature starts calling and telling me about sunshine and trees and rocks and things, and I'm sure I'm not alone. I've started to see more people and cars out there, in Price Park and on the Rough Ridge section of the Tanawha Trail, especially. I think it's great that so many people are wanting to experience the beauty of nature firsthand; I'm also glad to see folks getting OUT of their cars to do it, going out on the trails and putting in a little sweat for their experience. However, with the increase in numbers I'm also noticing an increase ip something I don't like at all—litter, vandalism, and disrespect for the natural beauty of the very places that exist because of the beauty around them. The Parkway was constructed to provide access to wilderness areas renowned for their beauty, so peo­ ple might receive enjoyment from their observa­ tional experiences. It was not intended to be a bar, a party, a drag strip, a trash dump, or a pickup spot: but many people are going to the parkway to do one or all of these things without a thought for the damage they may be causing. Jimmy Guignard wrote a column for The Appalachian's Feature page recently in which he discussed finding a collection of beer cans in a hollow tree. I think that's a pathetic display of immaturity, especially when you consider there's a trash can at each parking area with a trailhead or trail access; if these people were industrious enough to carry the full cans up the trail in the first place, Paula Chjkfog, then surely they could find the strength to carry empty aluminum back. You don't hide beer cans in your sofa, do you? Wey, have at least that much respect for a tree that's older than you are. Another big problem in my view is vandalism, including graffiti. It's bad enough to go out and spray up campus, but the Park Service can't very well roll a sandblasting setup to the top of Grand­ father and remove whjre some idiot painted "SIT" on a rock to be "cikte." Paint stays around a remarkable time—look at the wall in front of the Student Union when it rains sometime if you don't I feel we have been given a great gift in the believe me: it says "CLASS OF 73." Parkway—access to delicate, unspoiled wilderness We keep hearing about how vandalism has by way of good road and easy trails. In receiving that increased tremendously on campus, but we don't gift, though, we also take on the responsibility for its always hear how trends in our immediate area have care and preservation for those who will come after affected other places.

There have been a couple of suicides in which the victim did play D&D. This does not mean the game caused the suicide; it just means a per­ son who killed himself played the game. How many people who have committed suicide also played chess, oiTbridge, or video games? Recently there was an episode of NBC's Unsolved Mysteries in which a person died under mysterious cir­ cumstances. After some research it was "discovered" the victim was into the occult. He was a member of the Society for Creative Anachronisms (SCA) and also of a religious cult. Granted, D&D is a violent game, One other thing they saw relevant to but it is no more violent than the ASU is in a desirable location and attracts numerous applicants. The mountains, skiing and excellent academic colleges are benefits mention was that the victim played average video game or boxing match. Dungeons & Dragons (D&D).

The average SAT score at ASU has risen from 934 last fall to 956 for next fall. ASU students should be proud to belong to such a selective institu­ tion. The popularity of ASU has grown because of national publicity and greater local coverage. Due to the rising number of applicants and the continuing im­ provements in the quality of the academic colleges, ASU can soon ex­ pect to be among the most prestigious universities in North Carolina.

MY MATERIAL GRIP on THE HOUMJ VALUES OF THIS EMPTY OEMERAVOA/.. present: most of the destruction and defacing usual­ ly occurred in the main gathering areas like Price Park, with the trails staying fairly clear. However, things have changed recently with the opening of the new, final Parkway section. Trash and vandalism has spread outward onto the trail system at an alarming rate—I've seen more trash and paint on one small section of the Tanawha Trail near Ship Rock than on the entire Price Park Loop Trail, and it's been open more than three times as long. Have we ceased to care about our world any longer? It seems to me someone who can't even care enough to enjoy nature without despoiling it isn't very likely to care about anything else, either, including everything from tfimself and his friends to important global issues like nuclear war. If you don't care enough to notice how you affect the world around you, you must not be a very interesting or aware person. Many people have played D&D and other role playing games (rpg's). In fact, a large percentage of people in high school, college, and even beyond play some, or even on a regular basis. At least a million people play or have played D&D alone, not to mention other rpg's. According to statistics, approx­ imately 20 percent of the American public suffers some form of psychological disorder. Many of these are serious problems. Approximately 9.4 million people suffer from chronic or manic depression, 1.5 million are schizophrenic, and 1.4 million would be diagnosed as having antisocial per­ sonalities. That adds up to about 12.3 million people with serious mental disorders; out of the United States population of 230 million, they repre­ sent 18.6 percent of the population. If D&D causes these feelings to become manifest, then 18 out of every 100 players should have had problems from the game. As it stands only a handful of people have supposedly suffered and these aren't even proven. Statistics don't say everything (some people believe they don't say anything), but they do give a basis for judgement. If people only believe the "facts" they have heard on the news, I believe the general public has gotten a very grim view indeed of D&D. I have a friend who played D&D for years. Then his father heard about one of the deaths that was supposedly linked to D&D, arid forbade him to ever play again. Despite his efforts and those of several friends, the deci­ sion stayed. He is, however, now go~ing to college, and playing again. By now you have probably realized that I do play D&D. I have for about four years and I intend to play more. I see the game as just that: a game, nothing more. It provides me and many other people with an escape from their daily, boring, hectic lives into another world.

Darren Waldrop also on trial for "aiding and abetting" in the murder was found in­ nocent by the jury. "(The jury) was convinced that Waldrop did not know there was going to be a death (the night the shooting occurred)", Boone District Attorney Tom Rusher said. The seven men and five women jury spent over three hours deciding the verdict before finding Clemmer guilty and Waldrop inno­ cent. "With our understanding of the law and in terms of the law as was charged by the judge to us (the jury) we found nothing stated strong enough by the state that con­ vinced us that he was urging or inciting or premeditating an act," ASU art professor and Foreperson of the jury Dr. Margaret Poison said. "We could not give any other verdict than not guilty," Poison said. Clemmer convicted of second degree murder will get a maximum of 15 years in prison. He may be eligible for parole after seven and a half years. The minimum number of years Clemmer serves will be determined by the State Department of Cor­ rections and Parole Board. "With a second degree murder verdict there is no specific intent, deliberation, or pre-meditation to kill," Rusher said. "In this case the evidence produced more mitigating factors instead of aggravating factors. If the aggravating factors had been there Clemmer could have been convicted on a first degree murder charge," he added. Clemmer then would have gotten life in prison. Many students and fraternity members who attended most of the trial and who awaited the verdict to come in were disap­ pointed when the jury gave their verdict. "I felt he (Clemmer) got sentenced inade­ quately and the jury treated him leniently," Rusher said. Clemmer is currently being held in the Watauga County Jail. He will be moved to Central Prison in Raleigh later this month. "The most probable time for Clemmer to get out would be in six and a half years and this is not long enough time in my opinion," Rusher said.

"At ASU (on the college level) we are requiring incoming freshmen to take foreign language courses," Romero said. Many things are being done to ensure a successful program for students and faculty within the foreign language department. "We want to develop the full potential of the departments in areas of teaching, scholarships and service, Romero said. The curriculum is being revised for undergraduates and graduates. The graduate program currently has 10 students which Dr. Romero feels is a good number for the size of the department. Proficiency testing, advising and clubs are all available to students taking foreign language courses. In April the foreign language department is creating a training center for proficiency testing. It is the latest UNC-System requires campus drug regulations technique in testing so students are placed on a national scale and they know at what level they are proficient in the classroom. In addition to this the advising system is of key importance to prepare students in the classroom and in the language they are studying. Advisors help students individual­ ly. To stimulate interest among students in the foreign language department three foreign language clubs, French, German, and Spanish, have been created. Faculty members act as advisors and organize culture activities throughout the semester. The clubs also discuss cultural, ethic and linguistic problems. "Dr. Romero has worked hard to get an increase in funds, to make curriculum changes and encourage faculty to be profes­ sionally active outside campus," former chairperson of the foreign language depart­ ment, Dr. Judith Rothchild said.

Students dissatisfied with Food Service prices Rv TREY BARRINEAU By TOITV RADDIML Air Appalachian Staff Writer Director of ASU Food Services Ron Dubberly spoke last Tuesday night in an RSA sponsored question and answer session concerning student complaints about food services. Many students at ASU feel they are pay­ ing too much for food served by ASU Food Services. Dubberly said that due to many factors food prices will probably not go down. Contrary to what you might believe, we are not supported by state funds," he said. "All of our income is derived from our sales." With regard to prices, Dubberly said ASU's prices are set by a formula. We take the price we pay suppliers for food and multiply it by about 2.7 to 3 to determine the price at which we sell, he said. "We're what you might call a break-even operation, and that formula has been sug­ gested by food service experts for break­ even operations to offset food, labor and operating expenses." "Most of your for-profit places multiply by four or more," he added. Food Service's restaurants in Boone. Some prices were" even more to eat on the weekends.

TOWEL RELAJED SERVICES ; Pion tion five �April Griffin "Margaritaville" in Boone By BURMA SHAVER Appalachian Staff Writer Stndent input is vital to campus Do students read The Appalachian? I'd like to think so because I usually see it strewn all over the steps near the stadium tunnel. But do they actually read it? You know, comprehend. Now, that's a different story all together. It seems that many students don't utilize the campus newspaper. The Appalachian can do more than just tell you what's going on with A.P.P.S. this week. A 14 member editorial staff, numerous writers and pro­ duction staff do their best to give you an informative and entertaining newspaper at a price you can afford. Zero. Have you ever had 450 typed lines due twice a week? Not even the hardest English 1101 professor would ask that. But each sec­ tion of The Appalachian takes at least that much "copy" for each issue. When I asked a fellow student his opinion of The Appalachian, he said, "I look at every page." "Look?" I asked disbelievingly. "Yeah, look," he said. Not the conversation verbatim (as I was studying for a test at the time) but the meaning gets across. The paper is more than something to look at. Read the words, then glance at the pictures. It makes more sense that way. I'm probably just sounding off since you must be reading this. What you can do is sign language my message to any semi-literate students vegetating around you. Better yet just draw them a picture. If students want a varied and interesting Appalachian, they need to voice their opinions in letters to the editor or come by Workman Hall with story ideas. An important aspect of college newspapers is their editorial freedom. The Appalachian can be as progressive as writers and readers will allow. But writers can't do it alone. We tend to live in an isolated little world. After all there are only 24 hours in a day and we have classes and bodily fuctions like anyone else. We can't go to every club meeting, play or speaker that comes along. But if students give us input, we can at least siphon through campus events and give them a paper they want to read. It can be almost as boring to write about the same thing all the time as it is to read. This is not trying to be a promotion for The Appalachian, but a student newspaper can only be as good as its feedback. Without feedback, writers don't know how they can improve. If they do a good piece, some acknowledgement is always nice. Do you know how it feels to spend hours working on a paper only to see it blown across A-lot. It is not a pretty picture! The next time you see a campus happening or a place you'd like to know more about, let us know. The Appalachian will be a more rewarding and personal experience. After all the story will be your idea. Just''picture"' that. If you just awakened from a coma, you might not know that Jimmy Buffett and the Cheap Vacation Band played at ASU last Wednesday. I'm told that they could hear him loud and clear over in the library. Since I have just barely recovered my hearing now, I tend to believe it. Buffett's appeal is attributed to the mixture of sentimentality and goodnatured hedonism in his music. Jimmy Buffett sings about fun things. He makes his listeners feel good. And his serious songs have a mov­ ing romanticism about them that anyone with a heart can readily respond to. The combination of the two is nothing less than irresistable. With things like that going for him, no wonder the man has a faithful cult following. I thought "Some White People Can Dance," was quite catchy, but where I thought he really rocked was when he started doing some of the older numbers. As far as the concert goes, I sup­ pose I ought to dispense with the com­ plaints first. For one thing, the con­ cert was awfully short; it lasted for less than an hour and a half. "From the front row, I guess it was a good concert. Just wish he'd played longer," said an individual who asked to be identified as the guy with the parrot. Director of H'Appy's, Randy Kelly said the shortness of the concert was due to Buffett having a sore throat and the band having to catch a flight out of Hickory. It might be mentioned that Buffett was on stage the whole time, perhaps leading to his becoming fatigued so early on. The sound wasn't very good either. I don't think that was too important, since I would have just gone out and bought a Buffett album that I could get years of high-fidelity enjoyment out of if I was just wanting to hear the songs clearly. I was there for the excitement of a live show. And that, I think, I got. What I do think is important is the struggle I was forced to engage in to get to my seat. I stood in the cold for something like twenty minutes to get in. Unfortunately, I was wearing shorts and a tropical shirt at the time. I should have known better, but I had assumed that I'd only be outside for about three minutes. Once I got inside, it took me about 15 more minutes of shoving to get to my seat. Once I settled in, I enjoyed myself immensely. If you were there, you already know what he sang and if you weren't I doubt you care. We won't be going into a formal review here. I don't think that would be appropriate for a Buffett concert anyway. It seemed to me like the show started out a tad slow, but that may be because I was busy getting elbowed in the ribs at the time. I thought "Some White People Can Dance," was quite catchy, but where I thought he really rocked was when he started doing some of the older numbers. Appalachian Photo by Rich Koon I think it was a big success; the Varsity Gym is pretty inadequate for a big con­ cert, but I had a ball anyway. "The Volcano Song," "Cheeseburger in Paradise" and "Fins" all proved to be big crowd pleasers. Probably my favorite part of the concert was when Buffett said he was going to do one of his old standards Jimmy Buffet! crooned his tunes to a receptive audience. with a contemporary twist. I hesitate to mention this since my mother will read it, but let's call 'em where they lay; he started throwing rubbers (yes rubbers; I hate the word "condom," it's euphemistic) into the audience. Then he sang a rousing rendition of "Why Don't We Get Drunkand Screw?" Well, nobody digs Jimmy Buffett for his sensitivity, and it was pretty funny. Of course, he did the obligatory performance of "Margaritaville" Experience historical Newport with Thinking about summer school? ASU offers a variation of the typical summer school grind in the form of the Newport Summer Pro­ gram. Brian Huffman, a senior at ASU, went during his sophomore summer. "In comparison to summer school in Boone after you pay for tuition, fees and living arrangements it's maybe $100 more to go there," Huff­ man said. The Newport Program, led by Dr. George P. Antone, is held on the pic­ turesque campus of Salve Regine Col­ lege. The college, founded in 1947, has 24 buildings on 60 acres in the heart of Newport. "Next door" is the il­ lustrious summer home of Cornelius Vanderbilt. "You are exposed to a whole dif­ ferent culture. The setting is breath taking," Huffman said.

"I think what people don't realize is that we've brought home the only national championship this school has ever had," cheerleader Eric Zegarro said. "We've brought the school a lot of national recognition." "I think part of it has to do the with the fact that they're really school spirited," cheerleading Coach Lynn Sessions said. It also has to do with a great deal of hard work. The cheerleaders return to school about two weeks before classes start and work all the way through football and basketball season, en­ ding in March. They practice between six to 10 hours a week plus another six hours spent lifting weights and the time they spend at games. They usually work seven days a week on their cheerleading. When they are preparing for com­ petition, the cheerleaders spend as "The cheerleaders enjoy their job and they really appreciate the support that they receive from the fans." Lynn Sessions Cheerleading Coach much as 20 hours a week practicing. Tryouts are held in the spring of the year for the varsity squad and in the fall for the black and gold squad. At those times a week-long training clinic is held. For two hours a day, prospective cheerleaders are taught a chant, a cheer, a fight song routine and dance routine. They also practice stunts with a partner. At the end of the week, tryouts are held where the prospects exhibit what they have learned. Three outside judges choose the best. "The cheerleaders enjoy their job and they really appreciate the support that they receive from the fans," Ses­ sions said. Sessions said the work of the cheerleaders in encouraging the crowds to vocally support their team is important. "They take very seriously their job of supporting the basketball and foot­ ball team," she said. Zegarro said he finds supporting the school gratifying. "People don't realize what you have to do and go through, but you have to be more or less an athlete to be a cheerleader," he said. "There's fatigue involved and burnout. But you've just got to keep in stride with it and enjoy yourself." towards the end. And, of course, it was pretty darn good. The show closed with "Brown Eyed Girl" all too soon.

Circle Kprovides fun and friendship By AMEE SMITH Appalachian Staff Writer Would you like to provide services to the community and campus while broadening your circle of friends? Consider joining Circle K, a service organization that meets Wednesday evenings at 6:30 p.m. Students wishing to join can attend and earn their membership by performing a number of service duties. Dues are $22.00 for both semesters which include a pin, certificate of membership, newsletter and a Circle K International magazine. "This is the kind of club you can join in mid-semester," Circle K advisor, Randy Swing stated. "Just show up for a meeting and then earn your points. In two weeks we will be electing new officers, so that would be a good time for pros­ pective members to come and join under new officers," Swing said. Circle K is an international organization with clubs all over the United States. There are divisional and district levels to the club. Each chapter is sponsored by a local Kiwanis Club. There are oppor­ tunities to socialize with members in other divisions and districts during the year. "This club (ASU) has had leaders at both these levels and at least one, me, at the International level where I was Vice President for several districts. I got to travel, and the experience sharpened my leadership skills," Swing explained. See CIRCLE K Page 4 �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1988 Circle K • but without the selection process. We are currently trying to build our club back up," Swing said. Presently the club has 26 members and is led by Kevin Little, president, Easton Yoder, vice-president, and Lisa Whitener, secretary. Continued from Page 3 Recently, the group has worked at Highland Resthome, the Watauga Project, and the Carolina Friendship House. They perform most of their services for needy children and the elderly of the community. "During the 1960's and 1970's, Circle K was one of the largest clubs on college campuses, but with the emergence of sororities and frater­ nities we got pushed aside. Our club is ba«icallv like a sorority or fraternity, ' ,1 MINOR'S PRINTING 115 W. Howard St., Boone 264-6366 If you're interested in helping the community give Circle K a try. Swing emphasized, "we focus on the individual." You'll not only be serving others, you can help yourself to grow as a person as well.

TUESDA Y. FEBRUARY 16. 1988 SPORTS ASU earns conference victories Paul Carroll By BILL ZADEITS Appalachian Staff Writer Olympics should be liberated from national borders • h l' 1 It has been a good week for Coach Tom Apke's Mountaineers, slipping past East Tennessee State Thursday night in Johnson City 68-67, and stomping Western Carolina 100-85 Saturday night here in Boone. The win over ETSU, the Moun­ taineers second of the season against the Bucs, was as tough as they come on the road in the Southern Con­ ference. Neither team could take con­ trol of the game, with the largest lead being seven, and the balance coming down to a last second do or die jumper by Keith Jennings. Something special is in the winter air. Somewhere in the frozen reaches of Calgary, Canada, athletes from all over the globe are competing with each other to discover who is the best in the world. Every four years, the attention of almost everyone on earth shifts away from the politics and other harsh realities to the beauty of the Olympics. The sorrow 1 feel for the international Olympic movement arises not from the games or the participants, my sorrow comes from the politicization of one of the great spectacles in sport. The guilt for this aeration lies with the world at large; not one country or group of countries are to blame. The destruction of the original Olympic ideal is the responsibility of every competing nation. Since the 1972 Olympics in Munich, the games have become a stage wherein the great and small powers of the world act out their own narrow views. First, and worst of all, we saw the death of Israeli athletes, then the boycotting of the Montreal games, then the boycotting of the Moscow games, and finally the boycotting of the Los Angeles Olympics. Why am I harping on the injection of national values into the games? I argue the purity of effort put forth by the participants does not only cross manmade boundaries but erases them. When a human being runs faster, or jumps higher, or skates with a perfec­ tion never seen before, does it matter in what part of this earth he or she was born? I say no. The transcendent beauty of the human spirit is not limited by the arbitrary lines drawn by men. I can understand the carrying of flags in the games, but only as far as infor­ mation is concerned. In other words, this skier is from this place and that skater is from that place. The line should be drawn where fans support an athlete or team just because of the colors of their flag. What makes one person faster or stronger than another? The common denominator is dedication to the ideal of achieving one's potential. This is not the world of Rocky where one nation produces better athletes through chemistry. The Soviet athletes sweat, pull muscles, and break bones just as readily as American Glympians. Perhaps it is natural for our national pride to be stirred by seeing our flag raised above another while the national anthem is being played. But to me, it doesn't matter if it's our national anthem or not. I just want to know that the medal recipient's effort was true. As an exercise, remember the fantastic down hill run by Franz Klamer in the 1976 Winter Olympics? How many people around the world were rooting for him because he is Austrian? This Olympic year, I ask that we look at all the athletes with the same admir­ ing glance. No matter who they are, their effort makes us all better human be­ ings. The Mountaineers led the Bucs 68-61 with 3:53 remaining, when Lenoir's Chad Keller scored five of the Bucs last 6 points. The last bucket coming as a layup with 51 seconds left in the game. After an ETSU timeout, the Apps ran the clock down to nine seconds when Ronnie Christian's 12 foot jumper went awry, Greg Dennis, the Bucs 6-11 freshman, rebounded and Coach Les Robinson called timeout with three seconds remaining on the clock. Following two consecutive timeouts, Jennings came free off of a screen and put up the last second jumper from the top of the key, that ended the game. Kemp Phillips scored 23 to lead the Mountaineers, Ben Miller scored 16. Keller led the Bucs with 22 points, while Dennis added 12. The win pushed Appalachian to 6-4 in the Southern Conference and 14-8 Saturday night's victory over Western Carolina, while not as close, was just as big. Western Carolina 1-10 in the Southern Conference and 7-15 overall threw every defense Coach Herb Krusen could call to try and stop the Mountaineers. Appalachian's strength on this night was its ability to recognize the Catamount defenses, and its own tough interior defense. Western Carolina's defenses, the box and one, man-to-man, and the one-three-one zone were aimed at stopping the Mountaineers heavy 3 point shooter Kemp Phillips. During the first half they did, but the bal­ anced Mountaineers just went down low to big men Ben Miller and Sam Gibson. The ability to get the ball into their post players helped the Apps build an early lead. A lead which reached as high as 23 in the second half. Phillips, the Mountaineers point guard, orchestrated an effective offensive scheme, disecting the Cat defenses. Miller scored 24 points and grabbed nine rebounds; Sam Gibson hit 19 points and grabbed 10 rebounds; Phillips added 17 points, two for five from three point range, and five assists, Darryl Person added 11 points and Rodney Peel scored 10. The Catamounts were led by Robert Hill with 17 points, Andre Gault scored 15 points, Bennie Goettie and Robert Hutchinson add­ ed 13 each. The Mountaineers were able to open up a 17-9 lead on Peel's 3 pointer at the 12:58 mark, then added two more with Jerry Holmes' two free throws. After two Cat miscues, Ed Ward hit a jumper to give the Apps a 21-9 lead. Another Western turnover resulted in a Holmes layup giving Appalachian a 14 point lead at 23-9. Both teams battled back and forth, when Gibson hit an inside hoop with 3:51 left in the half pushing the Mountaineer lead to 37-19. A tough second half saw the Cata­ mounts have three players foul out. ASU out rebounded Western 34-28 and had 10 steals to the Cats five. Appalachian's record runs to 7-4 within the Southern Conference and 15-8 overall. The Mountaineers play host to UT-C in Varsity Gymnasium on Monday before they hit the road for a four game stretch including con­ tests against Marshall and Davidson before the March 4 Southern Con­ ference Tournament.

"Our early game run was a product of our defense taking them out of their offense. Our kids knew we had to work hard, and especially make Western work hard," Head Caoch Linda Robinson said. 'In the first meeting against Western, we dominated the first five minutes. I told the team that if we did the same this game, it might very well play on Western's minds," Robinson added. Near the end of the first half with both Debbit Swicegood and Kim Johnson on tne bench with two fouls apiece, the Lady Cats scored four points forcing an ASU timeout. "I was a little concerned with five minutes left in the first half. Our play was lackadaisical. I called the timeout to tell our kids to keep up the defen­ sive intensity. Over the last 2:05, we played the kind of ball we needed to play," Robinson said. "We are too good a team at this late a stage in the season to play in spurts," she said. The second half opened much the same as the first as ASU's Johnson scored the first bucket of the half. The two teams see-sawed for the first 9 minutes until Vaiorie Whiteside blocked not just one shot, but two on a single Western possession.

Following the stoppage in play, ASU's Debbie Swicegood canned three straight long rang shots to put the Lady Mountaineers out to an in­ surmountable lead. "This was one of the fine nights in Debbie's season. She not only scored points, she played good defense and moved well without the ball," Robin­ son said. "Tonight was a great team win. Our bench really came through for us. I was particularly pleased with the play of Valerie Morgan and Marcheta Sigmon," Robinson said. The Lady Mountaineers resume play on Wednesday night against the East Tennessee Lady Bucs. One of the more important games in the Southern Conference's season takes place this Saturday in Varsity Gym­ nasium as the ASU Lady Apps take on UT-C. "We are too good a team at this late a stage in the season to play in spurts." Robinson The Lady Mountaineers were led in scoring by their All-American Vaiorie Whiteside who rang up 24 points. Hindered by early foul trouble, Whiteside proved why she is a front runner for Southern Conference player of the year by hauling down 13 rebounds in only 29 minutes of play. During the Bulldog comeback, the Lady Apps were guided by the offen­ sive play of junior guard, Debbie Swicegood. The shooting guard from Welcome, NC poured in 14 points as her automatic baseline jumpers con­ sistently found their mark. Kim Johnson helped the Lady Apps with 18 points, with 13 in the second half. The junior transfer from South Florida also contributed with 10 re­ bounds. "They are the best team we have played all year. Their passing ability is some of the best I've seen," Myers said. Last Saturday night, the largest crowd of this season saw the Lady Mountaineers regain their early season form by defeating the Lady Cats of Western Carolina, 76-59. The victory was the seventh straight home win and the ninth consecutive win over Western Carolina. From the opening tip, the Lady Apps looked like the team all ASU fans have come to expect. Vaiorie Whiteside won the jumpball, tipping it to Jane Dalton, who in turn hit Kim Johnson for a layup with only 10 seconds off the clock.

Track Coach Bob Pollock said his team is ready for the Southern Con­ ference championships, which begin this Friday in Johnson City, TN. "We had a great showing down in Clemson. We're starting to gel at the right time, and I definitely feel we'll be a team to reckon with in the cham­ pionships," he said. In the 55 meter dash, Frank Allen finished fourth overall with a time of 6.44 seconds. Keith Collins finished fifth in the same event with a time of 6.49 seconds. Allen and Collins also ran in the 200 meters, along with ASU's Guy Beale. Allen finished third overall with a school record time of 21.99 seconds. Collins ran to a 22.64 finish, putting him in third place on ASU's all-time list. Beale, coming off a groin injury, ran the school's fourth-best 200 meters ever with a time of 23.03 seconds. In the 400 meters, Calvin Padgett placed third with a time of 50.28 seconds, putting him in fifth place on ASU's all-time list. It was Padgett's first competitive 400 meters, Pollock said. The 800 meters saw David Ess finish sixth with a time of 1:56.6. That put Ess in fifth place on ASU's alltime list. Pete Vandenberg ran a 4:13.3 mile, garnering a fourth place finish in the meet and third on ASU's all-time list. Charlie Storm finished sixth in the same event with a time of 4:24.3. Vandenberg and Storm later teamed with Dean Duncan and Charlie Willis to finish third in the 3200 meter relay with a time of 8:06.9. A quartet of freshmen paced ASU to a second place finish in the 1600 meter relay. The team ot Beale, Allen, Padgett, and Ess ran to a 3:21 finish in the event. See TRACK Page 6 �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDA Y, FEBRUARY 16, 1988 Track ASU got some outstanding performances from its field athletes as well. Warren Posey won the triple jump with a leap of 50 feet 5 V* inches. Posey had been out of competition since January 22, when he pulled a hamstring at the Kodak Invitational "We're glad to have Warren back. In the conference meet, we're plan­ ning to have him entered in the broad jump and the high jump as well as the triple," Pollock said. Leigh Hawkins won the shotput with a toss of 50 feet 9 inches. Scott Capell came in second with a distance of 47 feet Vi inch. Jay Killen placed fourth with a 45 foot 6 Zz inch toss, while Tommy Ball put the shot 44 feet 2'/2 inches, good enough for a fifth place finish. Hawkins also won the 35 lb. weight throw with a heave of 52 feet 1 Zi inches. Ball threw the weight 44 feet 8 Vi inches for third place, and Capell came in fourth with a distance of 41 feet 11 Vi inches. Killen placed fifth with a 40 foot 8 inch throw. "Our weight people were simply outstanding this week," Pollock said. Pollock feels his team will be com­ petitive this weekend at the Southern Conference meet, which ASO has won for the past four years. "Right now, everybody will prob­ ably pick VMI to win the champion­ ship because they've got such an experienced team and have been doing well this year," Pollock said. "We're coming off our best performance of the year (at Clemson) right before the championships. This team is very excited. We proved a lot to ourselves this weekend," he added.

That seems like a lot of money to pay for an hour and a half However, people who saw the entire show had a good time. Some people were still waiting outside when the show started promptly at 8:00 p.m. It isn't fair that these people had to miss the first part of the show This could have been caused by the enormous amount of security at the concert including ASU Security and Boone Police. A.P.PS. was not to blame for this because students were informed to arrive early. Seating also created problems for confused people who could not find their seats. Fortunately, A.P.P.S. representatives were readily available to assist people. A.P.P S. did an excellent job organizing this event; however a few things could have been better. Buffett could have played longer, and seating could have been completed before the concert began. The Buffett show was a great opportunity for ASU. Hopefully, we will be able to get entertainers of the same caliber in the future. Handgun control: violence solution? The Hardee trial has finally ended. Jon Clemmer was convicted of second degree murder, and Darren Wa/drop was found not guilty of aiding and abetting. Clemmer will be eligible for parole in seven and a half years. Is there any justice in this world? Seven years is a small price to pay for taking a life. Statistics prove that handguns are life-threatening. In the United States Uniform Crime Report for 1986, there were 19,257 murders. Handguns were responsible for 8,460 of these deaths. These figures are staggering. Obviously, something needs to be done about this problem. Currently, the presumptive sentence for second degree murder is 15 rears. This precedent can be raised depending on the circumstances. Clemmer received 15 years, and for each day he serves, behaves and ulfills his requirements he will receive one day of "good time;" herefore, Clemmer can be released in seven and a half years. This is outrageous. Laws against crimes involving handguns need to >e increased. The state penal system seems to be more concerned with a apid turnover rate than with imprisoning known criminals. How can society be adequately protected when criminals are set free her such short sentences? Hopefully, someday our justice system will be reformed to better rotect citizens.

COMMENTARY MARTTIA GILLIAM, Business Manager MATTHEW WEATHERMAN, Circulation Manager WLOOM COUNTY THE APPALACHIAN Thou shalt not vote Robertson I am sincerely disturbed by all the success Pat Robertson is having in his campaign for President. I think having him as President would be a disaster of untold proportions, for both the United States and the world, and that anyone who votes for him is be­ ing tremendously ignorant of both the truth about him and the truth about politics and world affairs to­ day. First, let me just say that I am not anti-Christian: the philosophy of brotherhood and love expressed in the teachings of Jesus Christ is perhaps the most pro­ found and important way of life a man could choose to live in today's society. However, I feel that much of the Fundamentalist dogma of today is about as far from true Christianity as you can get without be­ ing a mass murderer, and Pat Robertson is a perfect example of such. Many of the same reasons that Robertson is a lousy Christian are the same reasons he would make a lousy President. For one thing, he lies—profusely. Of course, most politicians lie, but ol' Pat even does it about his Christian beliefs. On CBS' Face the Nation this past Sunday morn­ ing, Robertson bluntly stated his belief in the coming of Armageddon was that it would NOT involve a nuclear war between the United States and Russia. He also STRONGLY implied that the Armageddon conflict would not directly involve the two super­ powers at all, but rather wouid be the act of some terrorist or madman,' like Quaddafy, committing a one-time act of violence which would escalate: the conflict would not destroy mankind. However, I have seen shows produced by Robert­ son s former TV network, CBN, detailing what he personally though and believed Armageddon would be like and it s all the things he now denies. One show had pictures of intense, high-powered combat and nuclear explosions, overlaid with narration of Robertson's beliefs on nuclear war as Armageddon. Even aside from the fact that Robertson blatantly (TjS Paula Childers lied on a live national news show, the very nature of his beliefs (or previous beliefs, if you choose to look at it that way) should be cause enough to worry us all. If our president believed that a nuclear war bet­ ween the United States and Russia was part of God's plan, it stands to reason that he would not be doing all he could to prevent it—why try to prevent the in­ evitable. Also, one of the things stressed the most by Fun­ damentalists like Robertson is the belief in life after death: any problem faced in this world is merely a test in preparation for our lives in the hereafter. This might be fine if you're a baptized Fundamentalist, but what about the millions of people in the U.S.' who aren't? Robertson has been saying lately in his New Hampshire campaigning that he is in favor of gradually phasing out Social Security—I suppose that all those elderly people living off SS will merely be able to get to their better afterlives a little faster without food and shelter. I thought our President was supposed to be making a better life for us HERE and NOW, not in some iffy hereafter. What happen­ ed to loving thy neighbor? What about being a good samaritan? It sounds very much like Robertson is merely a grandstand Christian, caught up in the fear and glamour and not really looking at the truth of the beliefs he professes to preach. Any good Chris­ tian ought to examine whether the Robertson (s)he is voting for really exists. On the other hand, if Robertson doesn't believe in these things, then why did he say them in the first place? If the Robertson of Face the Nation is the "real" Robertson—which is of course what he wants us to believe now so he can get elected—then where did all those doom prophecies come from? Did CBN make it all up? Or did Reverend Pat have a brain change operation upon leaving the TV preaching oc­ cupation? Politicians have always been notorious for their wishy-washiness, changing their minds as public opi­ nion changes. However, this is not exactly a desirable quality in my book, and is more undesirable when you consider the extremes Rev. Robertson has taken it to. Robertson runs around changing his mind like socks. So, just exactly what does this man take a stand on? That we should all give money to the Holy Government rather than making rich people pay taxes? I know, that's being a bit silly, but exactly what does Robertson think on the important issues like national defense spending and the deficit, and will he turn around a change his mind again after "we" elect him? Was Robertson only into being a minister (TV style) for the glamour of it? Did he really believe the things he said when he was at CBN? Or was his simply another Jim Bakker, only wanting the Presidency instead of another Cadillac? What are those of us who are not subscribers to Robertson's brand of Fundamentalist blindness sup­ posed to think about him? We were shocked to discover that Gary Hart cheated on his wife, a com­ mon occurrence in this day and age (and one practic­ ed by many former Presidents, including JFK), yet we overlook Robertson's irresponsibility in getting his future wife pregnant before their marriage, because he has been "born again." Come on, folks—what about backsliding? How much about this man are we going to overlook? And what kind of harm will he do because of it? Let's face it: if Pat Robertson gets elected, we will have only ourselves to blame, for being too gullible to realize what we were about to do. Bridging generation gap not impossible By JAMES F. JARRETT Appalachian Columnist College is a big step for any young person. He or she has to adjust to a new style of life, new surroundings, new people, and an entirely new way of doing things. Perhaps one of the biggek problems facing the new col­ lege student and his or her parents is the generation gap. When someone lives with his parents for a long time he gets used to a certain routine and way of doing things. When he comes to school these routines have to change to some degree, and so the student adapts. Since there are no parents watching over him he can do things, for the most part, however he wants to do them. If he wants to go to bed at 3:00 in the morning and get up at 11:00 a.m. then unless he has a class conflict he can. When the student finally returns home, whether for a visit, break, or summer vacation there are problems. His parents don't have the same routine he does, so that's a problem. Odds are, the parent's routine has changed somewhat over the time and the student can't fall back into that exactly. acceptable at home. Another big problem is new ideas. Since the student is growing and When a student goes to college he is in learning at an alarming rate and the one of the most advanced learning parents are not, he may begin to see situations in the world and is opened his parents as ignorant, closedto new ideas and feelings on matters. nainded, or just plain old-fashioned As he adopts some of these as his and senile.

If you do not believe in drinking and the other person does, then say: okay you can drink provid­ ed, and list a few general guidelines. This system can be put to use by parents and children, teachers and students, between roommates, and in any other situation where a conflict of beliefs and personalities exist. There is no guarantee that it will work. For one thing, one party may lie about where he stands because he is afraid of the result. Try anyway and maybe at least you will understand why the other person does what he does, even if you don't like it. Evolution and creationism mix By MARK WILLIAMS process by which the cosmos came in­ to existence. The Bible contains many Religion is one of the most con­ creation stories of which the first two troversial issues in the history of man. (Gen.l; Gen.2) are the best known.

There are two main problems with these conception. The first problem is that of truth. The Bible does not say that the earth was made from nothing. It says that "the earth was without form and void." (Gen. 1:2) The priestly story of creation says "Out of the original chaos God created an orderly world." The Bible itself initiates the purification of our beliefs. The second problem is that of scope. By accepting the predominant concept we limit ourselves in the discovery of truth. Let us examine the idea that evolu­ tion is an instrument by which God brought about and continues his pur­ poses for us. If so, fundamentalists should not feel threatened by evolu­ tion but should embrace it as theistic doctrine. This would solve the pro­ blem of time; i.e. recognizing that God's time or "day" differs from our own. The problem of existence is handled by positing that God caused the "Big Bang" to take place. In retrospect, is man not "formed" from the earth in the theory of evolu­ tion? Quotes "Conform and be dull. " —J.

MILLER Appalachian Staff Writer r, i i , The first Supplemental Instruction program to operate at ASU began this semester through the efforts of Joni Webb Petschauer, Learning Skills Coordinator at the ASU Learning Assistance Program. The Supplemental Instruction pro­ gram is a program where trained stu­ dent leaders attend regular course lec­ tures, take notes and read the same material that students receive in class. Leaders then schedule and conduct three to four 50-minute Supplemental Instruction sessions per week. Attendance is entirely voluntary. Essentially, the program is designed to assist students before they experience serious academic dif­ ficulties. The program's services are directly related to "high risk" courses. These courses are usually undergraduate requirements and characterized bv their fast pace, high reading requirements, and have an average drop/failure/withdraw rate of 30 percent. The program is not remedial or developmental," Petschauer said. The students who attend sessions could possibly do without them, but could use the sessions as a learning tool. We re running the program on a trial basis this semester," Petschauer added. The program needs support from the faculty and department chairs involved in order to continue. So far, it has been well received by members of the faculty involved. May Garland, formerly with ASU's Center for Developmental Education, helped implement the model SI pro­ gram at the University »• ".uoviin m ; of Missouri at Kansas City. Many pre-med students at the Kansas City University were having difficulty passing general courses, and as a result, not graduating. After implementing the Over 80 colleges and universities in the United States currently utilize SI programs. SI program there, they immediately experienced positive results. Over 80 colleges and universities in the United States currently utilize SI programs. Kirk Kropinack, an ASU biology major, leads three SI sessions per week for Dr. Howard Neufeld's biology 1102 classes, He uses open uiuiugy ii\jt classes. l-ie note quizzes and games such as "Jeopardy" to help students practice using the course terminology. Student leaders for SI sessions are chosen for their skill of the subject. As a model student, the leader demonstrates proficiency in the sub­ ject, but at the same time encourages open discussion of the student's academic concerns. "It's important for departments to know we (Supplemental Instruction) are not teaching content," Petschauer said. The SI sessions stress learning skills and how to become a better student. "At this time it's too early to assess the effectiveness of the program," Dr. Howard Neufeld said. "Based on studies from other schools, it's an effective program, but it will probably take an entire year to evaluate its ettects. effects.' Research project funded by Navy Ho ION .1. JIMISON By JON J. .IIMISON Appalachian Staff Writer and MARK S. WILLIAMS Special to the Appalachian The Department of Leadership and Higher Education at ASU received a Federal Contract for the academic year from a division of the United States Navy. The Federal Contract funds a research project under the direction of Dr. Braxton Harris, chairperson of the Department of Leadership and Higher Education. The research pro­ ject involves the study of educating Navy personnel to operate technical equipment. "1 got involved in this project when the Navy contacted us in connection with their technical training pro­ grams," Harris said. — Accoraina to Harris, the division r.f (hp Aivicinn of According Naval Sea Command wanted to see if the department would be interested in helping them improve their training operations. According to Beverly C. Christian of Special Funds Accounting, the contract allows for $44,301 of which only $26,086 has been used to date. To her knowledge ASU has not had a Federal Contract in the past 10 to 15 years as opposed to Federal Grants. "It's a contract with Appalachian State University.. .and most of the people working on this project are professors in my department," Harris said. The people working directly on this project are Dr. Gerald Bolick, Dr. James J^kson, and Dr. Leland Cooper all of the Department of Leadership and Higher Education. Also working on this project is retired mis .. w Navy officer J.C. Hill, currently . ^ .... U.S. m working in the Walker College of Business. "Up to this point wetlave not dealt ASU is not the first school that the Navy has contacted to do this research. Harris believes ASU was chosen largely for its history of working with community and technical colleges in North Carolina. with any materials that are classified. It is possible that we will in time. Some members of the team are going nave to have to be cleared, given security clearances, if we are going to continue to work with the Navy," Harris said. ASU is not the first school that the Navy has contacted to do this research. Harris believes ASU was chosen largely for its history of work­ ing with community and technical col­ leges in North Carolina. "It was a natural that the Navy would look for a university with that kind of experience. I think that's why they came to us," Harris added. Harris said the project would con­ tinue based on the success of the research presently in progress. If the contract with the Navy is not renewed before the end of May, funds for the project will run out. "What we're doing is based largely on our experience in the civilian world. To me it's the kind of thing a university ought to be doing," Harris said said. SGA working to alleviate campus graffiti Appalachian Staff Writer The Student Affairs Committee of SGA Senate is working on a program to control the problem of graffiti on campus. "Can The Paint" is the prospective title of the campaign to increase stu­ dent awareness of this increasing pro­ blem. Presently the penalty for writing or drawing graffiti on university proper­ ty is a six month probation period and five hours of community service work. The committee hopes to in­ crease student awareness of {he problem with the "Can the Paint" campaign. Taylor Smarr is working to have the Penalty increased to suspension from school for a semester.

Campus Planning Committee Chairperson Dr. Frank Mohler spoke about the planned construction of the new College of Business building. In mid-April a construction fence will be erected. The fence will enclose part of the driving range parking, a portion of the Brown parking lot and Ap­ palachian Street.

During con­ struction the road will be gravel. Also during the construction 100 to 150 parking places will be lost. Some spaces lost will be from the parking lot located behind Chapell Wilson Hall. After construction is completed, possibly in late August or early fall of 1990, the Howard Street extension SGA Vice-President Adelaide Beeker Junior art major Mike Norman has been asked to help create a logo that will be printed on buttons and signs for students to wear and see. The committee hopes that by in­ creasing awareness it will help to im­ prove the graffiti problem, students will care enough about the appearance of the campus. "If the students want to keep their campus from looking like a subway they need to look out for it and not participate in graffiti," Smarr said. Justice points out that not only does it affect the attitudes of the students who must attend school in such an un­ tidy environment, it also affects the impressions of prospective students and their parents when they come to visit the campus for the first time. The tunnels located across from the Rankin Science building are the tradi­ tional areas to spray paint. The Stu­ dent Affairs Committee feels when logos from other schools appear on the walls of the library building and obscene depictions of parts of the human anatomy are sprayed on win­ dows and hallways of campus depart­ ments, it is obscene. The committee would also like to see the existing graffiti removed. Sandblasting is a possibility, explains Justice, but tends to leave too much residue. The committee is looking in­ to the possibility of some sort of special chemical that could remove the present graffiti. The next major step is to present the idea to Vice-Chancellor of Stu­ dent Affairs Dr. David Mclntire. Justice and Smarr would like to see a reward offered to anyone who reports and aids in the indentification of offenders. This semester students can expect more courtesy phones on campus, prospectively in Sanford Hall. Also a special number students can call to find out the menus of Food Services, and results of a food survey con­ ducted about ASU Food Services. will be paved. There will be parking on one side of the street and a sidewalk on the other side. Dougherty House located on Rivers Street will be moved creating 100 new spaces. Parking spaces on Locust Street will remain open throughout the construction. The parking spaces that were closed during last semester's construction of the Industrial Technology building will be reopened shortly and will help compensate for the loss of parking spaces. Chairperson of the Budget commit­ tee Pat Patton stated ASU has the "third youngest Faculty in the UNC system" and "66 percent, roughly 36, of us are under 55." Due to the recent death of a student in the student exchange program, faculty will meet later in the month to discuss the changes that may be need­ ed in the Student International Program. There are 10 Faculty Senate seats to be elected for next year. Three of the seats available are at large seats, two from the College of Business and four from the College of Arts and Sciences. The Faculty Senate spoke about the problem of the schedule advising pro­ gram. They said the non-traditional and transfer students had the most problems with the current system. Some departments, however, are bet­ ter than other departments. Another major problem is advisors who do not emphasize that a student can change majors. Students help blood J • dnve meet quota Appalachian Staff Writer A blood drive was held Tuesday in memory of Portia Healey, former Editor-in-Chief of The Appalachian. Two hundred and forty-six people attempted to give blood at the drive, which was sponsored by The Ap­ palachian and Pinnacle, Stadium Heights and Campuswide Resident Student Associations. Two hunded and fifteen pints of blood were actual­ ly given, according to Melinda Noah of the American Red Cross. "We were pleased we made our goal," Noah said. Noah added that 1,100 pints per day are needed in this region. "We usually barely meet the re­ quirements," Noah said. She added that O negative blood is the most needed type right now. Coordinator of Residential Pro­ grams Tim Coley said seven blood drives are held at ASU every year. "RSA usually sponsors or cosponsors at least five," Cooley said. He added that ASU's blood drives have a very successful record. Freshman Sheila Untz, a five-time donor, donated Tuesday. "It makes me feel good that this is something I can do," Untz said. "I look at it as a responsibility of mine now. Noah emphasizes a person cannot get AIDS from donating blood. "I think that the media has really helped to educate people about that, but it can't hurt to say it again," Noah said.

"Since 1986, there has been a three hundred percent increase in violence," Deputy Public Defender Wendy Lisk said. Deputy Attorny General Robert Burns commented on the increased number of cases reported to Student Judiciary. "There have been more assault cases this year and more severe assult cases, whereas last year the assult cases were to lesser injury," he said. Chief Justice Kim Gray spoke on different kinds of assault cases the Student Judiciary has handled. "Assault cases may range from simple assault and assault and bat­ tery, to assault on a female and assault with a deadly weapon," she said. "We've gotten many cases involv­ ing roommates whose disagreements broke out into fist-fights. Not only males, but females too," Lisk said. "There is violence as well in dorms," Burns said. "It has been oc­ curring in places that it used to not happen, such as H'Appy's, the Stu­ dent Union, Conrad Stadium, and parking lots. Lisk feels that alcohol consumption by students has contributed to the in­ crease in violence. "A lot of it has to do with alcohol. People drink a lot and their emotions get all flared up and they want to fight." Director of Public Safety and Security Roy Tugman has not noticed a significant increase. "According to our records, violence has decreased this year. This is due to the fact that most cases are reported to RA's and RD's and then sent to Student Court; security is rare- ly involved," he said. Security has installed a new phone system on campus to help alleviate problems with assault called the BlueLight System. Roy Tugman explained the system. "It's basically nine telephones, placed at strategic locations on cam­ pus, which have an automatic, direct dial-in system. All you have to do to activate it is to push the button. The phone will call security and hold the line for three minutes whether you speak into the phone or not. This system is operational 24 hours a day and 7 days a week." "The system was developed over four years and installed last August. So far the system has rarely been us­ ed, which is good," Tugman said. "Even though the new system has not been used by many people, it still serves it's purpose, just knowing that the system exists gives students a strong sense of security. PROFESSOR TO RETIRE: Dr. Will Strickland, a professor in the Philosophy and Religion Department at ASU will be retiring from teaching after 22 years. He is retiring at the end of May.

The Gospel Choir will be perform­ ing in the First Baptist Church on February 21. The repertoire will include negro spirituals, African chants, black anthems and traditional gospel music. Director of Minority Affairs Willie Fleming says the new focus of the choir's music is an effort to be "true to their roots and take truly American music (the negro spiritual) to the Bahamas."

After piloting the trusty Fiesta to the Rough Ridge Overlook, I strolled up the Tanawha Trail in search of the elusive Ship Rock The day was perfect No one was on the trail but myself and a few birds Oh yeah, there was this red squirrel named Ben. He tried to bum a cigarette from me. (He also said you wouldn't believe it if I told you ) While I was walking to the top of Ship Rock, I noticed something that severely ticked me off. Somebody in their infinite wisdom had painted "Jump" with an arrow pointing off an overhanging rock to the left of the trail. REAL COOL! Hugh Morton was good enough to let a trail be cut on Grandfather Moun­ tain in the first place. Now some pseudo-Rembrandt felt an urge to practice his art on Mother Nature's rocks. Totally senseless. I'm afraid I11 never understand the reasoning behind the (unmentionable names) who did that. The person or persons painting the rocks didn't confine it to just one either. After bitching to myself for a while, I continued my hike and came out satisfied after enjoying a great day. I managed to run across some more idiocy though. Hollow trees, in my opinion, don't make good trash cans. I saw a hollow tree full of Budweiser and other assorted bottles. What really makes it stupid was the trash can not 50 yards down the trail. It really bugs me that people can do that kind of thing. If someone from out of town visits, what are they going to think? That we are a bunch of pigs who tan't appreciate nature? Or was it somebody from out of town? Who knows? Whomever it was, may paint cans grow out of their hands and litter bugs infest their armpits. If you feel an urge to litter or paint, go find a city like Charlotte, or better yet, Atlanta. Everything has already pretty much been trashed in those places. Anyway, most people like the forest the way it was before the paint and trash I feel real sorry for those who don't. On August 20, shortly after the last summer school session, while most upperclassmen are grab­ bing their last few days of relaxation, THEY come. They come from the coast, from the mountains, from the Piedmont and other locales. Pouring into Boone in cars, vans and U-hauls loaded to the top with luggage, clothes, stereos, computers, sad moms and proud pops and a younger brother or sister tucked in the trunk. Excited, anxious and maybe even a bit afraid, the freshmen class will arrive. It hasn't been that long ago that a couple of friends and myself arrived in Boone at 5 a.m. on a cold, rainy Saturday morning after spending a restless night in Wilkesboro. We'd watched "Revenge of the Nerds" the night before and, let me tell you, that didn't do a lot for my morale at that particular time. Sitting there in my car I started thinking, "How will I Find my classes?" "What if ASU didn't get my deposit?" "What if the residence hall gave my space to someone else?" "What I wouldn't give to be watching Bugs Bunny right now." "I WANT MY MOMMA!!!" Yes, I was scared, but no, I wasn't going to tell anyone. Little did I know then but a group of about 100 upperclassmen were there, giving of their time and experience, to really help answer those questions and help me get over those First-day jitters. Already, deep within Workman Hall, plans for freshman orientation '88 are getting underway. A group of six Appol Corp coordinators: Nancy Falls, Robert Burns, Jennifer DiNunzio, Kristi Lee, Gary Greene and Trent Huffman, led by Assistant Director of Student Development Dino DiBernardi and Student Development intern Sam Calhoun, are already put­ ting the Appol Corps orientation program together. The Appol Corps program begins the Saturday freshmen arrive on campus. Appol Corps leaders are By J SHAVER By SHANNON SPARKS Appalachian Staff Writer For students who don't have $500-51000 lying around at tuition time, financial aid is a familiar con­ cept. Many possibilities exist for students with financial needs beyond the FAF and the Guaranteed Student Loan. With a little £xtra looking, one never knows where the extra money may come from. Appalachian offers many financial aid programs and a small booklet on them is available in the Financial Aid Office, in addition to the FAF, Guaranteed Student Loans, and academic scholarships there are a )ariety of scholarships offered by individual departments and several government-sponsored loans. 'g'bility for Financial Aid is based on need. Need is defined as the difeience between the cost of attending sc ool and what students and families can afford to pay. The role of finan­ cial aid is to fill that gap. If the FAF °es not show need, Supplementary Loans for students and PLUS Loans ,or parents are available. students enrolled at Appalachian receive some sort of financial aid, whether it be need-based from grants and loans, academic scholarships, government loan programs, work study, temporary work on campus or departmental scholarships. In discuss­ ing those funds awarded by individual departments, Gabriel commented, "It is expanding and beginning to pick up the slack of the government." Gabriel also explained, "It used to be that aid from financial aid was greater than aid from loans, but now that is turning around and loans are more common." This year students borrowed seven million dollars in Guaranteed Student Loans. Gabriel understands the great need of some students, but says that much less money would have to be repaid by some in the long run if they would be willing to work at a part time job rather than having to fill the rest of the gap with loan funds. Gabriel also discusses the Teaching Fellows program. One hundred eight students this year received the Teaching Fellows scholarship.

I felt so much better about ASU after my orientation experience," sophomore Steve Gunter said. This year, for the First time, the program does not have a student director. The student development staff restructured the program to have six Appol Corp coordinators instead of one director to handle the publicity, room scheduling, freshmen publica­ tions and leader selection, among other activities. "The coordinators are a diverse group of people with a lot of good ideas," Falls said. "Since this is the first year that there has not been a director, there will be even more responsibility placed on each coor­ "My Appol Corp leader was really dinator.

In addi­ tion to campus tours, the leaders are available to answer questions on everything from getting involved in campus clubs and organizations to academic requirements and residence hall rules. "My Appol Corp leader was really helpful. He explained all the options in the dorms and why they are like that," Leah French, an ASU freshman, said. "He showed us all the places to go and he was really easy going." An important aspect of any court­ room is the role of the judge, a role filled in Student Court by Chief Justice Kim Gray. The Chief Justice receives a copy of the charge letter and other informa­ tion that is also sent to the Public Defender, Attorney General and the individual being charged. The cases are numbered and placed on the court docket. The Chief Justice decides the priority the cases will take, consider­ ing both their urgency and trying to meet the Judiciary's 28 day hearing policy. Gray also sets the court dates. The Chief Justice is a non-voting member of the court. She does not participate in the decision to Find the defendant guilty or not guilty with the other justices. Gray insti ucts the defendants about their rights and about court pro­ cedure. She presides over the student court and sees that the bylaws are adhered to. The Chief Justice moderates when the court goes into deliberation. When a verdict is reached, she reads it to the defendant. The Chief Justice is an ex ofFicio member of the student senate. She also screens prospective justices to make sure they are sufficiently acquainted with student law. "I'm proud to report that we have cleared more cases at this point than last year's court did the entire year. Now we have just gotten in our 230th case, and last year they got in 227 the entire year." Kim Gray Chief Justice The Chief Justice makes a report to the SGA at the end of the year, giving such statistics as number of cases, breakdowns according to class and sex, and the types of cases being tried. Gray said there has been a definite increase in campus violence this year. There has been about 40 cases this year, compared to around 8 last year. "I'm kinda worried about it," she said. "I think it's affecting how people view the campus." "I'm proud to report that we have cleared more cases at this point than last year's court did the entire year. Now we have just gotten in our 230th case, and last year they got in 227 the entire year," Gray added. "We have a great court system; I'm enjoying working with everybody this year," Gray said. Gray feels her job puts her closely in touch with campus events and administration ofFicials. Gray writes a monthly judicial col­ umn for The Appalachian and par­ ticipates in a radio show called "Legal Notes." Gray said her job would be impossible without the hard work of the Assistant Chief Justice and the cooperation of many others. "It takes a lot of people to get this court system running smoothly," she said. Gray, now a junior has been in­ volved in the judiciary since her fresh­ man year, first as Assistant Public Defender and last year as Assistant Chief Justice. The Assistant Chief Justice handles the administrative paperwork that passes through the office. An Associate Chief Juistifce, Glen Roseman, presides over court when Gray is unable to. "It takes a lot of people to get this court system run­ ning smoothly." Assistant Chief Justice Phillip Murphy also acts as court secretary, keeping records of cases. He keeps the docket and handles all the mail that comes into the office. Murphy said his job provides good experience. "It's a very rewarding job; it teaches me a lot about the campus," he said. Murphy said since court is open to the public, everyone should attend it at least once just to watch the process. Riprock's offers a 'Bashing' good time By SHANNON SPARKS Appalachian Staff Writer "Bash Riprock's is a "rip-roarin' " good time. Now that's a different name. Riprock's, the new casual dining and drinking establishment on King Street, has a natural interior and is cozy, yet open wide to accommodate a crowd. The dining area in the front has ample seating space and sunny window tables while the back area is ready to serve beer at the bar. Both areas have a clear view of the wide screen T.V. located in an elevated corner. The service was prompt and the waitress friendly. She waited patiently as we deliberated over the items on the menu. After deciding between the cheese and bacon potato skins, salads, tacos and.subs, we_finally set­ tled for items on the burger list after causing our waitress to mutilate her ticket book because of our indeciveness. After debating between ordering cole slaw or salad, I decided on both, along with a Bleu Cheese Burger (I'd never heard of that before). Others in my party ordered the Bacon Cheese Burger and my roommate ordered the Mushroom and Swiss Burger. After the entertainment of the wide screen T.V. and some friendly conver­ sation, our meal arrived. The result of our carefully pondered decisions were "Bash"ing. One thing unique to individual restaurants is their Italian dressing. Riprock's house dressing is the traditional vinegar and oil, seasoned with a tasty blend of spices. Another item restaurants have their own secret recipe for is cole slaw. Riprock's sweet, peppery version caused my roommate to "mmmmmmmm" and friend to order her own portion. The fries weren't the run-ofthe-mill greasy rectangles, but were cooked all the way and had a fresh flavor. My roommate had very high com­ ments about her Bacon Cheeseburger. The bacon was crumbled, not sliced, and was topped with grated cheddar. As for my friend: "That was the best Mushroom and Swiss Burger I've ever had, and I've had a lot of mushroom and swiss burgers." I've only recently acquired a taste for blue cheese, but had I not, I think I still would have liked the tangy cheese sauce that was the single top­ ping on this burger. The meat was quite beefy (nice for beef to be beefy) and was clearly not the cheap fast food variety. The feast didn't end there. The devilish grin on my roommate's face was clearly saying "dessert." Cheesecake, to be exact, with a choice of blueberry, strawberry or cherry topping. When the cheesecake arrived, drip­ ping with strawberry sauce, all of our grins were devilish. Of course my friend and I tasted. The crust was light and sweetened while the chilled cheesecake was garnished with a fruity glaze. It melted in the mouth. "This is sooooo good!" said my roommate. I wasn't THAT impressed, but it was a delightful way to top off a satis­ fying meal. No entree is priced over $4, with burgers around 3-something and drinks from 50 cents to 80 cents. When we ate dinner the restaurant was quiet, but weekends are busy, as well as during lunch. We left satisfied and I knew my first restaurant review ever would be a favorable one.

Any ASU student may participate in the program, but the deadline for turning in cash is April 1. Dr. Ulrich Froehlich, associate professor of Ger­ man, will direct the program. "You don't need to know German to go on this trip," Froehlich said. Participants are offered the luxury of private single rooms at the Univer­ sity of Wurzburg. Individuals may receive six hours of credit in Ger­ manic studies and one hour in Language study. Students minoring in German may receive seven hours of credit in Germanic studies. Business majors can also work out an arrange­ ment for credit. Students will participate in cultural events unique to the country. A festival similar to Oktoberfest is one of the colorful events planned. Tours include a BMW and Mercedes automobile factory and a medieval village. In the cool of the German evening, the group will sample freely at the local brewery; there will also be wine tasting. An optional excursior will be glacier skiing in Austria. To date, 30 people have signed uf for the trip. There is an added benefit by taking the trip through ASU. "After this students can go abroac for one semester or a year," (and gel credit through the University' Froehlich said. �THE A PPA LA CH1A N.

Did your mother take care of the prepa . on, cooking and storage of foods at home? If so, you may not know some do's and dorit's concerning food safety. Good food safety becomes com­ mon sense when one is provided with some knowledge about the main causes of food-borne illness that results from swallowing large amounts of bacteria in food. No food is sterile. Bacteria is common and unavoidable in foods. Our bodies can handle normal levels of these microorganisms without becoming ill. Symptoms of food poison­ ing are similar to those of stomach flus. However, abornormally high levels can result in food poisoning. Symp­ toms of food poisoning are similar to those of stomach flus. However, if you experience a severe headache, diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, and fever within two-to-six hours after eating, it may be due to growth of bacteria is inhibited. The task is to prepare and store food under conditions which do not allow bacterial growth. Below are some ways to inhibit the growth of bacteria and to increase the nutritional value of the foods you eat. 1 be at 0 3. Keep cold foods cold and hot foods hot. 4. Keep the kitchen and prepara­ tion tools clean, washing with hot water and soap. 5. Thaw frozen meat thoroughly before cooking. food poisoning. Symptoms usually subside after one or two days, but if they persist medical attention should be sought immediately. t he Dredominant causes of food poisoning result from wrapping foods incorrectly, waiting too long to use foods, or improper cleaning of food. Bacteria is allowed to multiply in the above circumstances because the con­ ditions for survival are met. The con­ ditions for bacteria growth are: food, water, air, warmth and time. If any of these requirements are missing, the 10. Do not eat foods from cans which have rust, discolored labels, swells on the end, or dents in them. 11. Never leave food in open cans. Lead may leak out and con­ taminate the food. Keep your refrigerator between 35 degrees-40 degrees F. 2. The freezer should degrees F. Appalachian Wellness Center 9. Cook all foods thoroughly. 6. Store leftovers in airtight con­ tainers and reheat thoroughly. 7. Never leave meat unfrozen in the refrigerator for more than two days. 8. Hot dogs and bacon are safe for two weeks unopened but once the packages are opened the foods will be safe for seven days. 12. Leave eggs in their store bought containers. Eggs stored out of their cartons absorb refrigerator odors through their porous shells. Never eat eggs whose shells have been cracked previously—this is one of the most common causes of food poisoning. 13. Prevent contamination of food in containers: always use a clean utensil to scoop out mayon­ naise, peanut butter, tomato paste, and so forth, and never eat directly from main con­ tainers. 14. Foods which cause the greatest problems include raw and cooked meat and poultry, because they encourage the growth of bacteria.

Sunday, February 14 is St. Valen­ tine's Day; a day when couples reaf­ firm their love for one another and the florist shops have a field day. As a child, I would look forward to the day when I would trot to class car­ rying an old shoebox laboriously decorated with old valentine's and paper hearts with a slot cut in it and a valentine for each and every classmate.

About the time of eighth grade health class, there was always some clown who would walk around all day exclaiming, "Happy V.D.! Happy V.D.! Get it? V.D. for Valentine's Day instead of venereal disease! HaHa! Happy V.D.!" Nine times out of 10, this would be the exact same nimrod who would dangle a bolt in front of some cutiepie's face asking, "Wanna screw?" some months later.

PRATHER By BILLY VINSON Appalachian Slaff Writer cc'CrCT' ^ . « » p . . ,i King Saturday night at the Black Dia­ mond Inn I caught a great show by the King Bees. One of the area's top party bands, the King Bees play a mixture of blues, R&B, and blues-rock. I had seen them before and decided that for dancing, drinking, or listening it was hard to beat these guys, but Saturday night they showed a musical flair that I had not expected. The name "King Bees" immediate­ ly refers to a blues classic by Slim Harpo, and the band lives up to its namesake by playing high quality blues. Notable blues standards such giggle!" or some other bubble-headed remark.) 1 probably shouldn't be so cynical. Who knows? I might have pulled the screw trick on some doll too if it weren't for the fear of getting my face slapped off. in high school, guys sent cards, flowers and boxes of candy to girls they had their eyes on as in making some sort of reservation for prom night. My least favorite memory of this was when I gave a girl I had really liked for a while a large heart-shaped box of chocolates. When she called and thanked me for it, I asked her if she had enjoyed the candy. She then explained that she, of course, could not have one single piece because it would certainly cause her to become overweight and had given it away to all of her friends. And I, of course, stopped giving anorexics candy. Another adolescent memory is when I would read my horoscope religiously every afternoon in the paper. Whenever the caption under my particular sign read something like 'Romantic interest prominent today' or 'Member of opposite sex has major sights set on you,' I would frantically call up every girl I knew at school dropping numerous hints. This little ritual never brought about the kind of results I desired but the benefit of hindsight proves that I might have been trying a bit too hard.

This I had expected. But I was surprised at the variety of music the band has added to their show. In addition to fine traditional blues, the audience was treated to ren­ ditions of tunes from artists such as Rufus Thomas, Rockin' Sidney, and the Grateful Dead, culminating in straight-forward rock and roll classics like Chuck Berry's "School Days" and Elvis Presley's "Big Hunk o' Love."

Rama and Faure. Akal Dev Sharonne is the Visiting Artist at Wilkes Community College, and also spent two years as Visiting Artist at Martin Community College, ^er career has taken her to such diverse settings as Carnegie Recital hall in New York City, Jordan hall in oston, and rural settings in southern ranee. Ms. Sharonne was the winner ot the Arlington Philharmonic Young Artists Competition and the New tngland Conservatory "Night at Pops competition, which brought her a solo performance with the Boston Pops. Highly esteemed as a mentor, she has served on faculties of urn- ^eW Poland Conservatory, Williams College, and the University of Rhode Island. Shirley Irek has firmly established a reputation as a leading collaborative pianist. She has toured Europe and Africa with the Minnesota orchestra, and was engaged by the Carnegie Hall Corporation for a New York debut in 1986. She was a winner of the Interna­ tional Coleman Chamber Music Competition as a member of the CalArts Trio and had performed fre­ quently in major New York halls with leading instrumentalists. The sonatas by Mozart and Faure are transcriptions of violin sonatas, and the composition by D.B. Rama is for solo flute with drone. It is based on an Indian raga and is written in classical Indian style. The drone ac­ companiment will be provided by guitarist Dan Pumphrey. Rasa/ila was composed for Ms. Sharonne in 1986, and will receive its first public perfor­ mance in northwestern North Carolina at this recital. The concert is open to the public free of charge. I Ramones Continued from Page 6 going to be in the state and after securing tickets for the show, my mind started to work. I figured that since I am known as "the guy who in­ terviewed Tipper Gore," I should at least try and interview (or at least meet) people I actually like. With a lot of help from Jamie Smith (WASU's Program Director) an interview was set up. WOW! Thanks to her, it hap­ pened so soon that I found it hard to imagine during the following week that I would actually get to meet The Ramones. Soon, however, it hit me. Traveling down to the Queen's City with me was some of this institutions trendiest people. Jamie McLendon (America's Little Sweetheart), Wendy R. Sykes (the Donna Reed For The Eighties), and someone who many of you who read Diversions last year may remember, Hell Mary (we're now , on a first name basis; she calls me "C." and I call her "Hell") all rode down with me fir the show. We arriv­ ed early so Jamie could force his mother to wash his clothes as we hung out at record and comic stores getting confused for a rock band by a number of pinheads. Eventually, after a pizza dinner, I saw The Ramones put on the best show they had ever done. The very receptive audience became, for one hour, a giant mass of energy. If anyone could have harnessed the energy that night if could have generated enough power to cook all the food Shelly Winters ever ate. It was quite simply amazing. I thought I had died and gone to, well, someplace really cool. After the show we learned we could not interview them (through no fault of us or the Ramones) but would be able to go back stage and be introduc­ ed to them. We went back and made the rounds getting their autographs, getting pictures made with them, and also getting ignored. I did get a response (translation: a smile) from Dee Dee when I mentioned (transla­ tion: lied) about how much I enjoyed his new rap song. Jamie did me one better and got a response (translation: a beer) from Joey who was consoling Jamie after the interview failed to happen. Feeling that Wendy was be­ ing left out I took her and tossed her towards the nearest Ramone, Dee Dee, and took the lovely couple's pic­ ture. Unfortunately, this scared Wen­ dy very much causing her to have a nightmare that night about Dee Dee attacking her at a 7-11 with a severed head and a bowl of chili (I really worry about that girl sometimes). All in all we had one of the best times of our lives content in the knowledge that we met our idols and they ig­ nored us.!! Seriously, I do feel we got to meet a part of history. While they may not be as well known at The Clash or The Sex Pistols, they were first and they are still around while the others are no more. They aren't dumb though. They realize it could end very soon (they have only one album left with their contract with Sire Records). They also know that it could have been them to burn out years ago. Especially Dee Dee, who used to be as bad a heroin addict as Sid ever was. Seeing Sid's deteriation and death shook Dee Dee into getting help get­ ting off of that junk. Later he would even write a song about Sid for The Sid & Nancy soundtrack with lyrics like: "But you know you'll never win/when you're hooked on heroin." It seems to me The Ramones have in­ deed grown up as I am reminded of my favorite quote: "A smart man learns by his mistakes. A wise man learns by the mistakes of others." mistakes. A wise man learns by the mistakes of others." If you ask for my opinion, The Ramones are four very wise men. Gabba Gabby Hey!! AMERICAN CANCER ?

I believe that this information is all in the minds of the players, instilled in them by the crowd and the press. Take Death Valley in Clemson S.C. The I Tigers have won over 90 percent of the games played there since Danny Ford took oyer as the head coach. That statistics says a great deal about the home I field advantage, huh?

But back to my point, if the press did not add to this home court hype ODposing teams probably would not feel the intimidation that they are supposed to feel when they walk into "The Zoo" or the Dean Dome.

They cruised by the Citadel with a score of 89-72. The first half started a bit slow and at half time the Mountaineers only had a five point lead. "We didn't shoot the ball par­ ticularly well under pressure the first half. I think a lot of that had to do with them continuing to change their defenses, which I think kept us a bit out of synch," ASU Coach Tom Apke said of first half play. The second half picked up after a slam dunk by the Citadel's leading scorer, Kent Hill. Then the Moun­ taineers out scored the Bulldogs 12-2 in a four minute span ending with a media time out. Kemp Phillips led in scoring for the Mountaineers with 22 points, hitting six of seven three-point baskets. This game improved his three-point shooting up to 26 for 41 attempts in the Mountaineers' last eight games. Other leading scorers were Jerry Holmes, who was named Athlete of the Week in last week's Appalachian, Darryl Person and Sam Gibson. After the first few minutes of the second half, the Citadel realized the Mountaineers clearly meant business. "We took the six point halftime lead and we pushed it to 10 or 11. I think that set the tone for the rest of the second half for us," Apke said of second half play. When the Mountaineers heated up, they gave the crowd a dunking show, with five dunks in the second half. Gibson started the contest followed with dunks from Jerry Holmes, Jim­ my Stewart and a grand finale dunk by Pat Lyons with 14 seconds to play. • The Mountaineers now hold a 22-13 lead in the series which dates back to the 1968-69 season. "We're very excited with the vic­ tory. The Citadel did a lot of things that makes it hard to play against. They change their defenses. They really are a scrappy bunch," Apke said. "We were determined at halftime to try and win the first five minutes of the second half. We thought that that was important goal to set. And I think we accomplished it," he added. Monday night the ASU Moun­ taineers fell to the Furman Paladins by one point after a very close strug­ gle between the two teams. The first half was dominated by ASU and they out scored Furman 40-31. The trouble came in the second half when, ASU just could not seem to get it together. "We still had a nine point halftime lead and I felt like we were in pretty good shape. We told our players how important it was for us to go out and dominate the first five minutes of the second half. We weren't able to do that, and Furman was able to catch By STEVE GILL Appalachian Staff Writer and-forth game the rest of the way," Apke said. The second half was plagued with a few crucial turnovers that gave Fur- man the advantage to some extent. The Mountaineers also missed several free throws that could have made a difference in the outcome. "What was so frustrating was that we continued to play hard and we were doing a number of things well, but unfortunately we were not able to make free thrpws down the stretch, missing several one-and-ones in the final five minutes and a couple of easy shots," Apke said. Furmans defense seemed to dominate the second half holding the Mountaineer offense to a mere 26 points. The Paladins were able to out score the Mountaineers by 10 points in the second half. "Looking back I think that Furmans changing defenses kept us a bit off-balance, making us unable to establish our offense," Apke said. Early in the second half ASU look­ ed as if they might pull through on some momentum obtained by a dunk from Sam Gibson, but the Paladins kept up their steady hard-nosed play to fight off any substantial Moun­ taineer breakaway. The Paladins then pulled the momentum onto their side of the court and took a lead of 65-58 with 5:15 left to play in the game. A timeout by ASU seemed to break the Paladin scoring streak and in about 3 minutes the Mountaineers were able to take the lead at 66-65, with 1:33 left to play in the game. After Sam Gibson made two free throws to obtain this one point Moun­ taineer lead, ASU got the ball back with a steal by Kemp Phillips. At this point it looked good for the Moun­ taineers but after a missed shot the Paladins rebounded the ball and took it the length of the court only to miss a lay-up. ASU rebounaed the ball and with 19 seconds to go the Paladins fouled Ben Miller. Miller missed the front end of a one-and-one, and the Paladin's Gary Churchill made a bucket with 4 seconds left on the clock. There was a time out by ASU and they came out to win the game. The Mountaineers were unable to complete the inbounds pass to score and lost by only one point. "We are certainly very disap­ pointed with the loss tonight, but I thought that our players played very hard, ' Apke said. He also com­ mented on the last minutes of the game. Darryl Person pleased with the outcome. "It is an awfully big win for us tonight because of how much Ap­ palachian State has improved, and Saturday very well," Mance said. Mance was referring to the fact that Calloway went on to pin Camp­ bell s Stanley Morgan in the first period of'his second match of the ay. Calloway and LaPlante were not the only Apps to wrestle well against the Tigers, however. Chris Zwilling, wrestling at 190, dominated Clemson's Jym Guyer the entire match to gain a 19-4 superior decision. Zwilling's win closed the teams scores to 20-11, in favor of the Tigers. The Tigers then forfeited the heavyweight bout allowing the App's Rock Burch to pick up the free win The forfeit made the final score 20-17, closer thah the match really 7 was.

D When Ronald Reagan announced he would ask Congress to approve an aid package for the Nicaraguan Contras, I was sincerely disturbed. After the televised Ollie North hearings this past summer, I was worried that many Congressmen in need of re-election votes would turn their heads at the facts of the issue, and instead vote for Contra aid because of the sudden popularity of the socalled "freedom fighters."

Gosh...and he's a lawyer, too Isn't he, Howard?" "I'm afraid so, sir. You may remember, Ronnie, that this Wallach boy is the one who got Ed in trouble with Wedtech in the first place. But, since they went to law school together, I guess Ed thought he might look the other way..." A man should be loyal to his friends, Howard." "No one's done more to prove that than you, Mr. President." "Thank you, Howard. By the way how was Ed involved in that Wedtech thing?" "Well sir, like I said, the two of them went to school together, and this WaUsich—by the way, you know he spells his name funny like that poet e.e. cummings, no capitals—anyway' bout the time you got elected,' Wallach started tellin' folks what g0°d b"ddies he was with your buddy',Ed'and in '81 Wedtech hired him to lobby for 'em. "Well, Wallach got Ed to put in the good word, actually it was more than that, for Wedtech for a 1981 "W-UIU " 'v" no-bid Army contract to make engines. Fi not certain what happened—1 wasi workin' here then—but Ed's depui; James Jenkins, held a White House meetin' to review the contract, andi a result, Wedtech won it and made: whole lotta money. You know, Ron, a meetin' like that had never tab place before, and afterwards, Jenkins went to work for those Wedtech boys as a consultant. Made over $150thou­ sand before the company wen bankrupt." "I see what you mean, Howard, but Ed didn't make any money Iron it." "Not that anybody can prove, sir, but he did have some dealings with® investment banker named WFranklyn Chinn, who invested $50,000 Ed got from selling some stocks. You know, that investment doubled in two years." "Well, it sounds like Ed made' good deal." "A little too good, Mr. President Investments don't double like thal virtually overnight. And it turned out that Mr. Chinn was formerly on the board of directors of Wedtech before he became Ed's financial adviser. ' someone wanted to sneak another someone a lotta money, that'd be neat way to do it." ,| "That doesn't sound very 'e81 Howard." "That's what the special prosecute' is trying to decide, sir."

Well, how many times does this make it?" "You know they're after him all the time, sir. But, so far as the big stinks go, it depends on how you count it... four, or five if you include the problems before Ed's confirma­ tion." "That many, eh? Well, Howard, could you bring me up to date? You know how I hate to bother with memorizing stuff. You wouldn't hap­ pen to have one of those video update tapes—you know, like you fellows make for me on those tough foreign policy things?" "I think I can summarize, sir. This latest problem involves Mr. Meese's old buddy, Robert Wallach, and that Iraqi pipeline he was hawking. It seems that the boys investigating the Wedtech fiasco found an '85 memo from Wallach to Ed that told about a scheme to insure the Israelis wouldn't bomb that pipeline. "You see, those boys coulda bypassed the Persian Gulf and pumped oil from Iraq right to the Red Sea. Only trouble was, Israel mighta had to bomb it sometime. So apPatently, the boys backin' that pipeline decided to bribe Shimon p®r^s—lle was the Israeli prime minister then, 'member—to be certain that our Israeli friends wouldn't ever find cause to bomb the thing.

I must add that I've just recently returned to Appalachian and these incidences apparently reflect the norm, whereas a few years ago I would have considered them isolated. One such incident occurred while I was entering Belk Library. A young man who preceded me held the first door for me and when I acknowledg­ ed my appreciation by saying, Thank You," he made no response. The second such incident is one which occurs on a daily basis, not just on campus but practically everywhere. When I pass someone and make a gesture of acknowledgement such as a nod, or a smile, or even a word, and one fails to respond by returning any expression of life, it really scares me. I expect this coldness in New York City but not in Boone. If we can't be personal in a small community the size of Boone we are in big trouble.

Tuesday February 9, 1988 Buffett performs tomorrow in gym By NICOLE PARSONS Appalachian News Editor One of the biggest concerts in ASU's history will take place Wednesday night in Varsity gymnasium. Tickets have been on sale since January 18 and are still selling. On the first day of ticket sales there was some con­ fusion as to why A.P.P.S. members, who are sponsoring the concert, received their tickets first. It has since been clarified that they are given first priority for their volunteer work and efforts towards promoting the concert. One student who purchased $930 worth of tickets was not an A.P.P.S. member. For any student who has not bought his or her ticket there are approximately 1,000 left. "There are plenty of good seats too," Chairperson of A.P.P.S. Concert Council Clay Asbury said. Seating for the event is reserved by rows and how early fans show up will determine where they sit. "This will be the biggest turn-out for any event in the gym," Asbury said. Prior to playing at ASU, Buffet has performed already this semester at East Carolina and UNC-Chapel Hill. 'We are paying (Buffett) the same thing Carolina is and selling our tickets for 25 percent less than Carolina," Asbury said. Student ticket prices here are $12.50 and at UNC-Chapel Hill tickets were $16.50. "We aren't making a profit, we just want to give the students a major concert," Asbury said. It is expected that the remaining tickets will sell out. The kind of concerts and major performers ASU gets in the future will presently depend on how many tickets are sold and the number of people who turn out for the Jimmy Buffett concert.

The three female winners, all English majors, included Erica Swenson, Libby Beaver, and Julie Myatt. Swenson and Beaver are seniors and Myatt is a junior. Requirements for entering the contest were that the play be an original work or an adapta­ tion of a literary writing and that the writer be an ASU student or faculty. Notices were sent out last October giving the playwrights until January 12 to submit their plays. "This gives young new talent a chance to have their work accepted by the Play Leasing Company," President of PlayCrafters and Director for the Festival Karen Duckett said. "This is what every aspiring writer is after, to get national publication," Duckett said. The Play Leasing Company buys out rights to royalties from the author. For a writer to have their work submitted into publication they must have had their play produced at least three times. "This will be their premier production and from here they redo the play and have it pro­ duced again," Duckett said. The Play Reading Committee and Director's Committee were involved in the final decision of the plays and in selecting directors for the plays. The Play Reading Committee chose the plays on an objective basis and without know­ ing who the author was. Students wishing to direct the winning plays submitted applications and were chosen to direct according to their qualifications.

Surprisingly, the answer is yes and you don't even have to go off campus Some university programs have been in the works for months, even years and people don t take advantage of these cultural and inexpensive ways to spend their time. The Reserve Officers Training Corps is very successful at ASU and one of the units that has contributed to that success is the Commandos Club. Capt. Nickelson and Sgt. Maj. Lynch are the club's advisors. Capt. Nickelson is the artillery instructor and Sgt. Maj. Lynch instructs the group on the finer points of infantry. They work together in instructing the group. "Our goals are to improve the cadets' military skills, their profes­ sionalism, and their confidence. We do this by attempting to make the training they go through very challenging and very demanding." Nickelson said. He added that the training the cadets' receive is in the field, "small unit tactics and patrol­ ling," and in the classroom. "Every Wednesday night the Cadets' have between one and a half to two hours in the classroom. We go over land navigation, communica­ tion, weapons, and tactics," Nickelson said. The Commandos go on two field training events each semester to learn tactical skills, in addition to their other academic requirements. "I don't think that this is so much that it detracts from the cadets' academic performance, and at the same time it's enough to keep them interested and motivated," Nickelson said. A good example of this "lack of student interest" is an art show I had the privilege of seeing. No, I am not "philosophical" or even an art major But I wanted a friend to cover the story, so in turn 1 had to go. I was surprised at the larger than life quality of the works. This was no hokey little sixth grade color­ ing show. These artists had put months into their work and it really showed. Do you know how many students were spending their time in "cultural achievement that day? Not many (less than 25) I'll tell you. I checked with the director of the exhibit about how much time the gallery had put into arranging and publiciz­ ing the show. One year (that's right two whole semesters and a summer) had gone into something the whole campus could enjoy. Who was taking advantage of their hard labor? Not many people between the ages of 18 and 23 that s for sure. It was embarrassing to see young children admiring and questioning the artwork when students who could be taking advantage.. .studying in the library. Yeah, that's right I was studying in the library. And 1 believe the one about the dog eating your homework too. What about esteemed speakers on campus. People that obviously have something to say otherwise they would not have traveled 1000 miles to say it The majority of students that come to these events come notebook in hand. Are they trying to remember every word for future reference? Hardly just try­ ing to take enough notes to get by in their classes. In 30 minutes they're outta there, going to watch whatever it is couch potatoes watch this season Sadder still is the hard work of the theatre.

No, they just won't If they are not really interested in the put their money where their mouth is. This is not to those students on a things that we are doing, or if it's not sincerely tight budget, only to those self professed Parrotheads that wasted meeting their expectations, it's up to their last $50 on a keg. A.P.P.S. concert council tried their best to give students the show they asked for and at a price they could afford. Buffett tickets are a steal at $12.50 when you'd pay over $16 in Chapell Hill for the same concert. Now, they will just be breaking even and can probably count out another major act this semester. The moral of this story is simply this: before you start complaining about the lack of things to do in Boone, pick up an Appalachian or even ask a friend what is happening on campus. There are things provided by the university for your pleasure and in the process you may even learn something. Think about it. The Commando Club negotiates a road race at Fort Bragg. them. We don't pressure them out or pressure them to stay in," Nickelson said. He added the group tries to have fun while learning at the same time. John Evans is Commandos Club president, and he feels being a part of the Commandos Club has had a positive influence on his life. "The club has developed my leadership potential not only within the ROTC program, but all around. I have a better command of what I'm doing in my life, and with other peo­ ple. It's also a big moral boost," Evans said. He also said when one is committed to the club, one is commit­ ted fully, and this makes for high motivation. "It helps you not only with the club, but it gives you a better feeling about the work you do in school and the things you do outside of school," Evans said. The emphasis is on teamwork and confidence in the ROTC. The Com­ mandos stress this. This teamwork leads to friendship and cooperation. "It's a very tightly-knit group. So even when we're not working as a group, we spend a lot of time together in extracurricular activities. It nur­ tures a type of comradarie," Evans said. He added there are all kinds of people in the club and there is no discrimination of any kind. But the person has to have an interest in what the Commandos are doing and they must observe military discipline, and customs. Since the emphasis is on teamwork, few awards are given. However, if a person completes the year long train­ ing course, and if the person com­ pletes the qualifying course, they are given a black beret with a flash to show how hard they have worked. Appalachian w>ot<> by u.s. Army The Commandos provide securitv for concerts, usher services and help out with athletic events. The money the group makes goes into a fund to provide cash for trips and special ac­ tivities for the club. In addition to the other activities, the Commandos work with the Boy Scouts. "We've worked a lot with the Boy Scouts. We've gone rapelling with them, helped them with building rope bridges, and other projects," Nickelson said. The Commandos are a highly disciplined club. They have no dues and are very interested in what they are doing. They are proud of the job they do. "In my four years here, it has been the most rewarding activity that I've been involved with," Nickelson said. If you are interested in joining the group, contact John Evans. Community benefits from Rec. Program By DIANNE WALLY Appalachian Staff Writer Helping others is a great way to get involved in the community and reward yourself with the feeling that comes from sharing your time and abilities with those less fortunate than you. One way of helping others is to become involved in the Special Recreation Program here at ASU. This program is federally funded and Appalachian is the facilitator. Mary Kelton, Director of the Special Recreation Program, designs ac­ tivities for the mentally handicapped and mentally ill. The program is geared to help Watauga County citizens of all ages. "Handicapped people have a great deal of extra time. Although they usually have little to do," Kelton said. Kelton feels that recreation leads one to have better skills in all en­ vironments. Currently, there are several projects in the Special Recrea­ tion Program. The Special Recreation Program is teaching a handicapped employee training class. Another pro­ ject is the P.E. 4000 lab.

"Then we've done it again," Kaehr said. The newspaper has been in a state of flux this year. One of the changes in the staff that is usually most evident is one of Editor-in-Chief. This is Kaehr's first semester as Editor. "At first, I realized that this job is much more than anyone ever realizes," she said. She works around 40 hours a week. "I live here, and I love my job," she added. One thing that has affected the entire staff has been the death of last semester's Editor, Portia Healy.

Greer. However, the full range of services offered are not totally realized. Graduating seniors are not the only ones who can benefit from Career Planning and Placement. Programs are offered for freshmen through seniors. Dr. David Ball, Director of Gareer Planning, stresses the importance of early utilization of Career Planning. "When my son starts college, I'm going to encourage him to check with the career placement office at whatever school he attends. It (Career Placement Services) really makes a difference," Ball said. Students can better plan their career goals if they take advantage of all the information available to them. The services offered by the Office of Career Planning and Placement are free and are as follows: 1. Career Counseling: includes individual career planning, advising, and the exploratum of opportunities in addition to S1GI PLUS, a computer system designed to help the student make career decisions. 2. Student Employ­ ment: this service helps students find part-time and summer jobs while at­ tending ASU, and also keeps on hand a current internship file for interested students. 3. Career Library: provides students with current information in the areas of business/industry govern­ ment, and educational institutions; also supplies job market updates pro­ vided by the College Placement Coun­ cil. "If I were a graduating senior, I would spend a minimum of 30 minutes a week in the Career Library familiarizing myself with information that relates to my major," Ball said. 4. Graduate School Information: pro­ vides students with information about graduate and professional schools. 5. Placement Services: this service gives students the opportunity to interview on campus with prospective employ­ ers. Job vacancy listings and referrals are also provided. 6. Career Fairs: students get the chance to discuss career planning with professionals in business, industry, education and government. 7. Job Search Skills: Seminor« otiH wn*-lr>hnn< gr> help students develop letters of in­ quiry, resumes and job search strategies. During the fall semester, oncampus interviews are continuously being conducted from September through the first part of December, and during the spring semester they are conducted from February through the end of April. The Office of Career Planning and Placement offers many useful services and students are encouraged to take advantage of them.

A reception honoring the artists was held the opening day. The exhibit features the artwork of Nancy Spero, Janice Pittsley, Catherine Dunn, and Elyse Littenburg. The "Women Artists" exhibit will remain until March 18. "Three (of the artists) Catherine Dunn, Elyse Littenburg, and Janice Pittsley sent in slides to be considered for an exhibit," Smith Gallery Direc­ tor Mary Wyrick said. Spero was invited to be part of the exhibit, being one of the nationally known major artists of the year, according to Wyrick. The artists were selected "mainly because of the visual content of the works," Wyrick said. The Gallery wanted to have a varie­ ty of styles in the show, and they succeeded. There are "huge paintings by Catherine Dunn and we have small prints by Nancy Spero," Wyrick said. Appalachian BONttit ADS ^ CO&N\2Mll ^ T^ o 1*6.

By MARY K. MILLER Appalachian Staff Writer The diploma is cause for many puzzled looks from business associates who do not connect criminal justice with his line of work, but Branch doesn't hesitate to say that college graduates shouldn't feel locked into a job based on their degree. . Branch is the vice president of the Greensboro Merchants' Association, a nonprofit organization involved in every aspect of retailing. Even though he has a criminal justice degree, Branch has been involved in retailing since his sophomore year at ASU when he began working for Belk in Boone. He enjoyed retailing tremendously, however, criminal justice captured his interest in college. At the time, he said, "I didn't have plans to be a budding retailer or criminal justice expert." He followed the path to what interested him most, as many college students do. Dr. Joel Thompson, Chairman of Political Science at ASU, said that few students know exactly what they want to pursue as a career. Branch's work with Belk gave him the background necessary for his job with the Greensboro Merchants' Association. While attending college, he worked his way up with Belk from sales associate to assistant buyer. After completing his degree, the com­ pany sent him to their corporate management training program where he learned about budgeting, planning and buying techniques. Belk's management, he said, was instrumen­ tal in developing his career and help­ ing him utilize his education with the company. The Merchants' Association forms a liaison between members and all levels of government. Some of Branch's responsibilities as vice presi­ dent include addressing the concerns of member businesses with training sessions and voicing their concerns to lobbying organizations in state and local government. great deal of "changing hats" in order to juggle his various duties. Switching gears on the job is what he likes so much about his work. "I don't think I'd be very happy plugging away at the same job day in and day out," Branch said. "Education teaches you how to analyze problems and come up with solutions which is so much of what you do in reality," he said. "It's not the classes taken, but the intangibles that go along with a college educa­ tion." In forecasting the employment outlook for political science and criminal justice majors, Thompson agrees with Branch's educational philosophy.

New requirements for NCAA athlete: NASHVILE, TENN.

Op­ ponents say athletic ability should be considered in the same light as musical or dramatic talents when packaging financial aid awards.

Center offers aerobic fun and fitness By JAMIE MOSER Special lo The Appalachian Think back: hard concrete floors, instructors impossible to hear, cold biting drafts in the winter, and endless days of aching shin splints!! This is what anyone participating in ASU's aerobic activities went through before Quinn Recreation Center was opened. Before the 1987-88 school year, aerobics were held in H'Appy's. Usually only one or two classes were held a day. Cold dirty floors, and a stereo that worked when "it" wanted to helped to make up this dreary environment. Needless to say these were not the best conditions to try and shape your body into Christie Brinkley!.. .But that was then. And this is now: Thanks to Quinn!

ASU s ROTC dominates winter softball Rv STF.VF nil I By STEVE GILL Appalachian Slafr Writer On Friday, February 6 at 3 p.m., a group of what might be termed "maniacs" drove to Lees McRae Col­ lege in Banner Elk. They all hoped for snow. These members of the ASU ROTC were set to play the Lees McRae ROTC in the third annual winter softball game. Yes, you heard it right, softball. The game was introduced in 1986. It is played between the freshman class at ASU and the freshman/sophomore class at Lees McRae. Captain Michael Yurk is from Oshkosh, Wisconsin and even in his days as a newspaper reporter, he covered some strange winter events. He teaches Military Science at Lees McRae and served as the LMC coach on Friday. "I got the idea for this game because I used to see this kind of craziness in Wisconsin all the time," Yurk said. In Friday's game, ASU jumped off to an early 1-0 lead but the lead was quickly relinquished as David Crow and Yurk scored in the third. By the end of the fifth, the score was tied 3-3. The sixth inning was to be the last inning and the ASU freshmen scored and prevailed, 4-3. Captain Yurk was not disappointed despite the loss, noting that the 'mportance of the game was the comraderie and fun. It s a little bit of midwinter craziness and the kids look forward to it," Yurk said. In 1986, the first year the game was played, over a foot of snow fell. Snow is the ideal forecast for this type of game. It was a beautiful game because there was a foot of snow," Yurk add­ ed. An orange ball is used so it is more easily seen under snowy conditions There have been times, though, when even the orange ball was not good enough. That first year, a blizzard hit in about the third inning and you could not even find a pop-up. When it hit the ground, the ball was usually lost for quite a while," Yurk said. Only the imaginative can appreciate such a wild story. The thought of 20 or so guys and girls kicking around snow to find a softball, is cause for concern.

BROWN, Editorial Production Manager TERESA CHALK, Advertising Prixluction Manager Paula Childers Unknown talents deserve attention Local talent does not receive the support and recognition it deserves. The ASU campus and Boone area have a diversified range of talent to offer. This includes student artists, ensembles from the music . epartment, student and faculty poets and fiction writers, musicians and local bands. Art students prepare projects for class which are either thrown away or displayed in Wey Hall where no one can appreciate them. The solution to this problem would be to continually display this art work in more accessible locations such as the Student Union, Cafeteria or Belk Library. There are several ensembles from the ASU Music Department such as The Glee Club, University Singers, The Jazz Ensemble and student soloists who perform on a regular basis. Unfortunately, audiences for these performances are often smaller than they should be. This is unexcusable considering the great amount of time spent by students and faculty in preparing for these programs The Appalachian features student fiction as often as possible however, there are not many other outlets provided for this talent ' the Cold Mountain Review provides a larger medium for student and faculty talent. Published annually, The Cold Mountain Review is dedicated to publishing original works by ASU students and faculty including art poetry, prose and photography. Defining terrorism as unexcusable violenti Shortage of space due to lack of funding requires that all entries be submitted in November. A staff of editors examine entries and select what will be published. The lack of funding also limits distribution of this publication. More copies should be provided for a greater number of people to enjoy Other groups who often go unnoticed are the musicians who enteram m restaurants. Establishments which provide mealtime entertain­ ment should be commended. By AL HUMAN Appalachian Columnist Earlier, I had written on what terrorism is not. I had elaborated on how the relativistic definition of terrorism is inadequate as well as having ridiculous results. I further elaborated on how the larger doctrine of moral relativism is a false doctrine that evades completely the necessity of making moral judgements. However, one cannot define something in terms of what it's not but only in terms of what it is. Therefore, a positive definition of terrorism is needed to supplement the discourse on the inadequacies of the relativistic definition. Many conven­ tional notions about the nature of terrorism are thoroughly unfounded and it is only through a proper defin­ ing of terrorism that the problem can be addressed. Terrorism, simply put, is the" deliberate, systematic initiation of coercion for the expressed purpose of attracting attention to and achieving political, religious, economic, or social goals. Being such a cowardly act, terrorism is very often directed against innocent civilians. However, terrorism can just as easily be perpetrated against police, soldiers, judges, and legislators who engage in their sole legitimate function of pro- By doing so restaurants draw larger crowds, musicians can display their talent and the public is entertained, free of charge There are also numerous local bands that are often overshadowed by big-name groups.

The quality distinguishing terrorism from conventional crime is not its perpetrators or victims but its motive and its deliberate nature. And, as the victims of terrorism can be either in­ nocent civilians or legitimate govern­ ments, so also the perpetrators of ter­ rorism can be individuals or rag-tag bands or entire governmental systems. Terrorism, simply put, is the deliberate, systematic initiation of coercion for the expressed purpose of attracting attention to and achieving political, religious, economic, or social goals. -S55 On this basis, along with the fact that uninvolved civilians on all sides are always casualties in any conflict, it has been tempting for some to say that "no one is innocent," as one terrorist in Paris put it. In truth, this brazenly evades the clear-cut distinc­ tions between deliberate and acciden­ tal deaths, between official atrocities and unofficial atrocities done under official aegis, and above all, between the initiators of coercion and those who use coercion in defense or retalia­ tion against the initiators. There is a difference, for example, between a police force with the motto "to pro­ tect and to serve" that doesn't always live up to the motto and a terrorist group that creates mayhem both on principle and in practice. The police force is a fundamentally decent group which, in a free or semi-free society can be bound to its motto or turned out through the legislative and judicial branches. The terrorist group knows no such limits; it engages in wanton brutality on principle and has no checks and balances other than its own whims.

As It® U.S. Ambassador to the Its Nations Daniel Patrick Moyib succinctly put it: "Terrorism, »s: successful, results in totalitarian! The totalitarian state is terrorist come to power." "Terrorism, when suc­ cessful, results in totalitarianism. The totalitarian state is ter­ rorism come to power." Daniel Patrick Moynihat former U.S. Ambassado to the United Nation From all that has been said to regarding terrorism, it becow increasingly clear what the solutionis Terrorism should be treated no dil ferently than the actions of a com®* streetcorner thug. It should not l» ignored in the name of a moral agnostic "tolerance."

In the case of the ter­ rorists, the value to be gained is atten­ tion for a cause which he cannot per­ suade others to voluntarily follow. By contrast, when the terrorist's intended victim kills him, she doesn't seek to attain any value from him, but merely seeks to preserve the values which are hers by natural right, namely life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.' It has been said by both apologists for terrorism and generally duped people that terrorism is perpetrated by those who are crazed and desperate for justice. This is expressed in a variety of ways. "If the West didn't make the Soviets so scared, they wouldn't have invaded Afghanistan." "If Israel would only give the Arabs back 'their' land, the PLO wouldn't go around murdering innocent per­ sons." Or, "If the Irish didn't live under such squalid conditions, the IRA wouldn't terrorize the British," etc. In addition to being completely naive, this notion is a classic attempt to build a new viewpoint without con­ sidering the legitimate wisdom of the ages. In the famous Republic dialogue on why justice is its own reward, the Greek philosopher Socrates points out that the just man, being trustwor­ thy, is able to organize well with his fellow just men. And the just man is not at cross-purposes with his fellow just men, being of one mind with them. No just man is knowingly or deliberately at odds with other just men. By contrast, the unjust man is not trustworthy and cannot organize well with either just or unjust men A lot of people have been talking about the traffic problem at ASU lately. I've heard people say that Security is greedy, handing out tickets to make money. I've also heard peo­ ple say too many parking stickers are handed out, and there simply aren't enough spaces. All these types of arguments seem to have one thing in common; they all blame ASU Securi­ ty for the problem. Well, I agree all these things are true; however, I think it's time to recognize that Security is only the middle-man. The real blame should be placed on those who really fuel the problem. Yes, that's right, I'm talk­ ing about Ronnie and his cronies in Washington. At first this may seem a ridiculous thing to say, but bear with me for a moment. What is the real problem with parking? There aren't enough Parking spaces. What causes a lack of parking spaces? Too many peoJL driving cars, and no money to buv more land for parking. Why doesn't I iifl' lots of parking funds.

JARRETT Appalachian Columnist Since the raising of the North Carolina alcohol consumption age to 2i many college students and other people in their late teens have been upset. Here we are in a country that believes we are old enough to go to war or be responsible enough to vote at 18, but we can't go into a bar and order a drink until we are 21. The proclaimed reason for these changes is to decrease the rate of drinking and driving incidents as well as get the alcohol out of our schools. The number of drunk driving incidents have gone down but this can be just as easily contributed to the DWI crackdown. In fact, studies recently released state that while light to moderate drinkers ages 18-20 have dropped off slightly, the heavy drinkers are now drinking even more heavilv. I once had the chance to visit Europe. The European attitude toward alcohol is entirely different from our own. Children grow up around alcohol. They are served wine wjth their meals and occasionally drink beer. They see alcohol as a part of life and not a goal. As a result of this the number of alcohol-related incidents in Europe is lower than that in the U.S. In my opinion, making something illegal to a specific group makes the same something more desirable. This FREE is sometimes referred to as the "forbidaen fruit" idea, and it has some merit. If a child is told that his other can go swimming but he can­ not then the child is curious to find out just what is so great or different, and he goes anyway. • he fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars but in ourselves..." We, as humans, are naturally curious. We want to learn for ourselves, and no amount of warnings, threats, or actions will keep us from doing something we want to, or are curious about. The government would be better off teaching about proper alcohol consumption at an early age and pro­ viding more people with simple facts and not scare tactics. An educated person is far more responsible than one who feels threatened. Currently, the alcohol consumption age is only a minor nuisance to underaged persons who want to drink. Older friends, students, strangers, and in some cases parents are willing to buy the drinks fot them. The peo­ ple who buy the drinks not only do it for their friends but also do it for money, "Here's a five, get me a bottle of wir.e and keep the change." I do not care what is done but I do know the current system is not work­ ing. Something different must be tried. I am not the person to say what will and what will not work but as long as the problem remains something must be done.

So there I was at the door, in my spiked heels, staring at the top of my date's head. All I could think was, how do I get myself out of this? I could imagine how my legs would ache if I had to walk around with my knees bent all evening So to stall for time, while figuring out how to fake malaria, I made us some Double Dutch Chocolate. When I brought it into the living room, I discovered that Gary was a chocolate lover too. Ahh, a man after my own heart. Okay, I de­ cided I'd give him a chance. So we sat down and saw each other faceto-tace for the first time. He had a nice smile. After some small talk—I mean conversation—I discovered that we both love Updike, hate the winter weather, and both have minia­ ture schnauzers. So, we made a date to introduce Shadow and Schatzi next week. in: r~ ) All entrees served with soup, fried rice.

Alpha Phi Sigma is an honors fraternity for Criminal Justice majors. Faculty advisor Laura McGee representing the Fraternity spoke about the new organization. The fraternity has been around since the early 1940's as the only one designed for Criminal Justice majors. Alpha phi Sigma hopes to get involved with other honor societies on campus, give CJ majors more incentive and recognition, and help non-CJ majors to understand what is involved in the CJ major. CJ minors can also be eligi­ ble. Interfraternity Council President Neil Linnell spoke about Greek week, explaining that the council would like to make it a more positive experience for Greeks and non-Greeks. He fur­ ther explained that a special expan­ sion committee is looking into thn need for more Greek organizations on campus. He expressed that a need ex­ ists for all students to understand the role of Greek organizations. Interfraternity Council President Neil Linnell expressed that a need exists for all students to understand the role of Greek organizations. Committee chairs reported on their individual activities. Academic Af­ fairs Chairperson Kirsten Schoonmaker reported plans for legislation on prohibiting smoking in class­ rooms, having class syllabi posted before registration, instating a Dead Week which would prevent testing in classes the week before exams, and improving advisement for nontraditional students. Off-Campus Affairs Chairperson Gary Greene announced that all OffCampus Affairs committee members were working hard with the vaiious projects concerning the upcoming Apartment Fair, such as publicity, refreshments, contacting the renters, working on media coverage of the event and with legal services. Student Affairs Committee Chair Bobby Justice discussed several items of Student Affairs, including work on a bill dealing with the problem of graffiti on campus. "It has slowly spread from the area of the tunnels and needs to be con­ trolled," Justice explained. The com­ mittee would like to see the graffiti removed and a stiffer penalty impend­ ed upon offenders, such as suspension from school for a semester and a fine. "If people see what can happen to them if they do it, maybe they'll see that SGA cares, and think twice about it." Justice added. Secretary Cam Jorden announced that 18 positions were available on the Off-Campus Affairs committee. Those interested in joining the senate can contact Vice President Adelaide Beeker in her office at 23A Workman Hall. Appalachian Photo by Jonot Hoffnor SENATE BILLS: SGA Vice president Adelaide Beeker responds to senators' questions about various Senate bills in the process of being passed this semester. SGA supports safety regulations GSAS enumerates problems By JULIE WELLS Assistant News Editor SGA endorsed a bill last semester in support of the N.C. state law which requires the installation of fire detec­ ting devices in offcampus housing. There are currently several known apartment complexes in Boone which have failed to meet the state regula­ tion for having smoke detectors. The new bill is designed to enforce the law for students living offcampus who do not have fire alarms installed in their apartments or houses and for students whose alarms do not work. To better enf™-"* the law, the Off- Campus Student Affairs Committee will send copies of the new bill to the Fire Marshall, the sheriff's Office, the Boone Police, and to the individuals who own the buildines. "Anyone who doesn't have a fire alarm can come to us," Off-Campus Student Affairs Chairperson Gary Greene said "We can make a phone call from the Off-Campus Student Affairs office." Greene added that students should first contact the owner or renter of the building about the problem. If the problem is still not alleviated, the committee can then contact the Fire Marshall who is capable of closing down the apartment building if smoke detectors are not made available to students. The Committee has received several responses to the new bill. Three students without fire alarms and two students whose alarms do not work have already contacted the OffCampus Student Affairs Office. "The Off-Campus Committee went out into the buildings and talked to individuals about problems they were having. From that we gathered that there was a problem," Greene said. By STANNA SIMANDLE Appalachian Staff Writer The Graduate Student Association Senate (GSAS) cited problems with the ASU Bookstore at their last meeting. The problems include prices on textbooks and supplies and text­ book availability. President of the GSAS Melissa Lunn said that often it is more economical for graduate students to get textbooks in Raleigh, Greensboro, Charlotte, or Waldenbooks in the Boone Mall than in the ASU Bookstore. High prices on basic school supplies are a concern for Lunn and the GSAS. Lower prices, she feels, would benefit the students much more. Graduate students sometimes can­ not get textbooks at the Bookstore. Lunn found that the number of text­ books ordered by one of her prolessors had been reduced. As a result, some members of the class did not get books. Lunn added that students complained about the slow reordering process and the Bookstore not reordering books. "The Bookstore is there to serve the students," Lunn said. The GSAS has drawn up a petition on these matters. Lunn hopes 200 of the 1,000 graduate students at ASU will sign it. In the meantime, the GSAS is try­ ing to understand the Bookstore's policies regarding testbooks and sup­ plies. The GSAS hopes to have a member of the ASU Foundation speak at their next meeting on February 22. The Foundation manages the Bookstore. The associate manager of the Bookstore, Ned Taylor, said, "I wasn't aware there was a problem." Censorship ruling could affect college newspapers nationwide (CPS)—College press observers are appalled by a U.S. Supreme Court decision that gives public school officials new, broad authority to censor student newspapers. They are unsure how the January 13 ruling will affect college newspapers in par­ ticular. "It's an appalling decision," the author of several books about student press freedoms and professor emeritus of journalism at Indiana's Ball State University Dr. Louis Ingelhart said. "It has serious implications for the high school press. But I don't know what implications it' will have for the college press," Ingelhart said. "It's a limiting of the First Amend­ ment at a time we're celebrating the ,00th anniversary of the Constituhead of the Associated Colior'a'e ^ress anc' a University of Minnesota journalism professor Tom Rolnicki said. "This has the potential for being a devastating case," said Mark Good­ man of the Student Press Law Center. "But the court said in a footnote that the case is not dealing directly with the college press, and decisions affecting the college press will be left for another day," Goodman added. The ruling stemmed from a 1983 incident in which Robert Reynolds, the principal of Hazelwood East High School in suburban St. Louis, refused to let The Spectrum, the school's paper, publish students' articles about teenage pregnancy and the effects of divorse on children. When Reynolds ordered the stories to be deleted, three journalism students Kathy Kihlmeier, Lee Ann Tippett-West, and Leslie Smart, sued Reynolds and other school officials, contending that their freedom of speech had been violated. In its 5-3 decision, however, the Supreme Court ruled school newspapers, at least those run as part of journalism labs are not public forums protected by the First Amend­ ment. Principals and teachers, the court said, "are entitled to regulate the content of" a for-credit newspaper just as they're entitled to regulate the content of any other kind of classroom activity. But the classroom argument, when applied to newspapers, made many student journalism officials panic. "In the long run, it's going to have a devastating effect," a journalism teacher at Kirkwood High School in Kirkwood, Mo., H.L. Hall said. "In journalism, in order to report on critical and sensitive issues, you must stress critical thinking skills," the 1982 high school journalism Symptoms not always apparent By CHARLEY BELCHER Appalachian staff Writer or invaded the rights of others.

Force Committee will hold program on drug policy By NICOLE PARSONS Cold temperatures of the winter ays are a reminder to protect against frostbite. "We need input from the campus community." Chairperson of the Task Force and Associate Vicechancellor for student af­ fairs Barbara Daye of the university is to make available a drug abuser, constructive rehabilita­ tion. The university will continue to provide educational programs and will expect its own medical and counseling services to continue to be responsive to the needs of students, faculty and staff in terms of preven­ tion and treatment. This is what the task force will be working on and will need feedback from students, faculty and staff about the matter. "We need input from the campus community," Chariperson of the Task Force and Associate ViceChancellor for Student Affairs Bar­ bara Daye said. "We want to know what their feel­ ings are, what they think are the best educational programs and what they feel is important concerning the ASU drug policy," Daye said. ASU's drug statement and policy already states that the illegal or abusive use of drugs is not compatible with personal welfare and pursuit of academic excellence and will not be tolerated by the university. The statement and policy further stated that the fundamental concern The Task Force Committee will hold a two day program next week on Wednesday February 10 and Thurs­ day February 11 in the Student Union Pub from 11 a.m. until noon. During this program videos on alcohol and illegal drugs will be shown. Committee members will be on hand for informal discussion. Appalachian News Editor A substance abuse task force has been established by ASU to fulfill the University of North Carolina policy I on illegal drugs. This task force is the University committee for a drug free campus. While the UNC system has it's policy on illegal drugs, ASU is required to write their own policy as well. North Carolina and federal law prohibits the illegal or abusive use of drugs. th^^n PeoPle think of frostbite, ey think of sub-zero temperatures. ls is not always the case.

The Supreme Court decision, Hall lamented, will force high school journalists to focus on trivial issues like "reporting on who was named the prom king and queen. I don't see any challenge in that." "It's going to turn off good students from journalism," said Hall. "I wouldn't encourage them to enter the profession when they can't write what they should." "At first, I was assuming this didn't strip constitutional rights from high school kids," a Kansas State journalism professor and president of the College Media Advisors, David Adams added. "But they've rewritten the 1969 decision. It's a blow to student rights." In 1969, the Supreme Court had ruled school officials couldn't restrict student expression unless it disrupted to remember not to rub the area that is frostbitten. Rubbing may cause nerve and tissue damage. So far this semester there have been no reported cases of frostbite, but Derrick predicts that cases will start arising when the temperatures begin to fall below zero.

Appalachian Staff Writer Read this sign or more pet peeves Newspapers. The final frontier. (Well, not quite.) This is the maiden voyage of the starship columnist, on a three month mission to seek out strange new word forms t0 search for interesting subject matter, to boldly go where no columnist has gone before. (Except for Lewis Grizzard. He'll go anywhere.) Folks, this is a new experience for me. I've written quite a bit for the features section (in its various forms,) and the news section of The Appalachian over the past three and a half years, but this is my very first col­ umn. Getting to express my viewpoint on things for print is quite different and it'll probably take some getting used to. Depending on what I decide to write, my little spot on the page will either be interesting or painfully dull, as some columns can be when the writer gets a little too "into" themselves I hope that it'll be the former. We'll see. Many columnists tell you about their likes and dislikes over the course of a semester. The general consensus on disliked things here at ASU include: snow, bad roommates or neighbors, and the food in the B I Liked things are good weather, the parkway, weekends, and imbibing excess alcohol on the parkway during the weekends when the weather is nice. (I don't necessarily go along with the crowd on that last one.) Anyway, you've heard enough about these things from other people, in print and otherwise. 1 have pet peeves like the rest of the population. For your information, I'd like to tell you about one now. People tend to ignore a particular sign I have hanging from my door knob. I do have it hanging there for a purpose. I didn't spend 89 cents on it for nothing. (89 cents can be a large portion of a newspaper person's budget. Trust me, I know.) It says, "Sorry, We're Closed" on one side and "Come In, We're Open" on the other. The "Closed" side means, in translation, do not knock, do not pass go, do not collect $200. It always amazes me the sheer number of otherwise considerate and literate people who seem to choose not to use their poWer to read and knock anyway. When either I or my roommate feel friendly, the sign says "Open." It is generally understood by our friends and cohorts that they knock at this time and expect to hear "Come in, it's open." Maybe people will learn someday. Another peeve. I detest gossip. I am not a moralistic do-gooder, and I have listened politely when gossip is told to me. I just find the whole practice annoying and counter­ productive. As a journalist, even as a budding one, I believe in facts. As a rule, gossip is generally made up of unsubstantiated and unsupportable rumors that are usually untrue and unfair. I'd rather not hear them, and I feel that if some­ one wants to tell me something, they will, and if not, it's none of my business, and none of anyone else's. In other words, dear reader, it ticks me off. That'a a pretty good intro for now. See you around. The question is, where were all the parties last weekend? Well, if you're half as crazy as I am, you might have thought about entertaining yourself the way I did. After 19 hours of work on Saturday, I hopped in my trusty cherry red CRX, or as some say, my second home. Yes folks, I had worked from 5 a.m. till 12 midnight and still had the urge to find a party. What I found first was one of the toughest drives of my life. Three cups of coffee and a couple of NoDoz couldn't even begin to wake my exhausted "Fred Flintstone" eyes. Near Marion, VA, on the shoulder of Interstate 81, I fell fast asleep. My dreams were brief as a tractor-trailer driver blasted his horn at 3:30 a.m. I quickly got on the highway, only to retire at a rest area near Wytheville, VA. When I pulled out of the rest area, after hitting a van full of deaf students, it was already 6:30 a.m. My next short-term goal in life is to learn sign language. Anyway, I finally reached my destination at noon on Sunday. My mother was waiting for me as she had planned my favorite breakfastbuckwheat pancakes. Any college stu­ dent reading this can understand that I was not embarrassed at all after inhaling 12 of those babies. Of course, we reminisced about the big game. My mother, my brother Richy, and even my brother's girlfriend Laura, felt confident the Redskins would trounce the Broncos. You see, being from Bethesda, Maryland, we all tend to let the Washington Red­ skins run our lives. I decided I needed to get some special party items for the big bash so I headed to the store. My grocery list read: four double A bat­ teries, two rolls 35-millimeter film, a bag of ice, a sandwich, and last, yet certainly not least, a twelve pack of "Silver Bullet." When I arrived back at my mom's house my good friend Denny was on the phone. He and his " Our first impression of Georgetown came when we parked our car.

Judicial office provides law enforcement By J SHAVER Appalachisa Staff Writer Anyone can become involved in the Student Judiciary Process at any time, whether as a witness, victim, or defendant. The purpose of the Attorney General's office is to see that student laws are enforced, just as that of the Public Defender's office is to ensure that student rights are observed. The Attorney General's office is the only branch of the Judiciary with the authority to drop charges.

By MARGARET SLATTERY Special lo The Appalachian (Editor's Note: In the January 21 issue of The Appalachian, an article on Eckankar contained some inac­ curacies. Below is an accurate descrip­ tion of the dream study and soul travel program. For further informa­ tion, contact Margaret Slattery at 295-9410 between the hours of 5-8 p.m.) Eckankar, meaning "a path to God," is an ancient religious teaching that links Soul to the Light and Sound of the Sugmad (God). This shows Soul the true way home, into the very heart of God. Dream study and Soul travel techniques open these inner doors for the individual who studies Eckankar. Appalachian Staff Writer by Rich K««*i Eckankar, as a way of life, focuses on the totality of the individual's life. Its teachings set forth principles for the purpose of individual spiritual unfoldment, allowing the individual to readdress every aspect of his/her life—physical, emotional, mental, in­ tuitive, and the truly spiritual—in a new light. The individual chooses how to apply the principles he discovers through study of the ECK teachings to his own life, for personal unfoldment at his own pace. The integrity of the individual and his right to make those decisions which influence his life is all impor­ tant in Eckankar. Each is left com­ pletely free to make his own choices every step of the way. It is a violation of spiritual law to attempt to in­ <(back By HARRY L. DOWLESS Appalachian Phofo The Attorney General's office and the rest of the Judiciary cleared out a large backlog of cases last semester. They are currently working on all the cases backed up from break. Heckel praises the learning ex­ perience that working with the Judiciary provides. See JUDICIAL Page 4 Understand your dreams through ECK Get Outdoor Programs "We investigate and prosecute any cases of violation of student law," Attorney General Andrew Heckel said. "It's all very exciting, but it's all done with extreme seriousness; we try to be as fair as we possibly can." One little known duty of the At­ torney General's office is to ensure that all bylaws involving student elec­ tions are observed. The Attorney General's office has made progress in several areas this year. "This year, our office has really worked extremely hard to open up lines of communication with residence life. They are the ones who we get the majority of our cases from," Heckel said. The Sociology Department is visiting the home of the czars and cossacks. Dr. Albert Hughes will be leading a trip to the U.S.S.R. from May 16-30. The trip is hoped to be an entertaining and exciting new challenge for students. Interested parties should consider the educational benefits of the excursion. Through exposure to people of a different culture, students may gain self-enlightenment and respect for the people, as well as the nation in general. The trip will include several historical places of importance along with some cultural events of the season. The group will visit Moscow's fluence another's way of living or thinking in any way. Dreams and soul travel are studied for two years before anyone officially joins Eckankar. Nowhere in the ECK teachings is there denial of the validity of other perspectives. All are encouraged to continue with their present religious path or teaching if it provides them with the upliftment and answers they are seeking. Only when an individual has come to the end of his present course is he encouraged to investigate Eckankar. Eckankar is not a cult, nor do its members follow special diets or com­ munal lifestyles. Eckankar doesn't re­ quire worship of a personality of par­ ticipation in rituals, does not deal with the doctrine of sin, nor does it in the USS"with ancient cathedrals and palaces. Along the way, they plan to make a casual stop in Leningrade. Hughes said, "We'll see a ballet in Moscow and/or opera in Leningrade. It'll be an opera in one city and a ballet in the other." The winter abode of the classic Katherine the Great, will be explored by the group. As one stands in awe at the vivid pictorial representation of the palace, they should note that the Hermatege is also one of the world's largest art museums. Other smaller museums will also be visited. As the group savors the atmosphere of the area Hughes intends upon making a stop at the archeological site of an old fortress near Smolensky. Smolensky has an interesting hitorv. It was one of iQ.000 f/nvni and villages destroyed by the Nazi invasion during WWII. Through the endurance and "never die" attitude of the Russian people, Smolensky was rebuilt into a modern industrial city. With excitement in mind as well as education, the group wil receive the rare opportunity to visit Russia during three major cultural events. The first, and most important to the Russian people is the celebration of the nations' 70th birthday. Upon exit of this festive area, the group will help celebrate Moscow's 800th birthday. These two celebrations will be an occasion for festivity, but the fun is not over yet. Another event will be in progress; the national celebration of Christianity reigning over the land for the past 1000 years, ask for any tithing or put pressure on its members for financial support. Each member is encouraged to retain his individuality and meet the respon­ sibilities of family, job and society. Eckankar simply provides the techniques for an individual to prove to himself his own beingness as Soul and gain the personal experience of God and the heavenly worlds during his lifetime. A Dream Study and Soul travel class is being organized at ASU. The orientation meeting is on Thursday, February 11 and will meet again on Wednesday, February 18, in room 112 Student Union. Both meetings will run from 7-9 p.m. This class is free and open to anyone interested in learning more about themselves. Soc. trip With these events in mind Hughes hopes that each day of the trip will bring new self-enrichment to the members of the tour. As they pause for rest within the various sectors of the Russian countryside, they will be welcomed with daily meals in a variety of cuisine. For breakfast, there is coffee or tea served out of a saimivar. Buttered bread with a combination of jam and Russian cheese rounds out the meal. Breakfast may also include cold meat. Though breakfast is heavy, lunch is relatively light with soup, meat or fish as an entree, and dessert. Dinner is usually served in the same fashion.

So I decided that if I took out the trash and helped the living room become more desirable as a place to lounge then that would be enough. In fact, gathering up all the beer cans (these I'd touch); rearranging the fur­ niture and vacuuming would still be quite a lot to do. There was no way in hell I was touching the pot on the stove. Will clearly was more gutsy than I (he even trusted leaving his clothes on the floor). If he wanted to, he could clean the pot. Sting Trio Continued from Page 6 Continued from Page 6 Madonna tune.

If you are not familiar with the Austin, Texas school, it is not only one of the largest schools, but it is also one of the most beautiful schools in the country. The people are extremely hospitable, and life in Texas is generally laid back. Jerry Holmes looked forward to a fun filled and rewarding four years of college. Jerry is a basketball player. He played as a freshman at UT, and figured prominently in the Longhorns 84-85 plans. Yet, just before his sophomore season, Holmes broke his foot and was out for the season. Then, his father was transferred to Tennessee. Jerry had to come up with new goals to play college ball. He came to Appalachian. Appalachian Photo by S.I.D.

CARROLL PAUL T r A D o m r Assistant Sports Editor Road victories in basketball are what separate the average teams from the truly good teams. On Monday night, Tom Apke's Mountaineers went into the Asheville Civic Center and defeated the UNC-Asheville Bulldogs 86-80. ASU's offense was led by Kemp Phillips, 19 points and five assists, while the game in the paint was dominated by Ben Gibson. A sophomore center from Newport, N.C., Gibson contributed eight re­ bounds and 15 points to the Apps' cause. The depth of the Mountaineers bench revealed itself to Jerry Green's Bulldogs in the form of Jimmy Stewart. On the defensive end of the floor, the 6-8 Stewart blocked two shots and altered several more. The Mountaineers found themselves behind at the halfway mark, 34-35. But as has been the trend this year, Apke's troops played a better second half to close to a welldeserved victory. The win was not easy for the ASU team, though. The Bulldogs refused to stop fighting back. Led by the 24 from the outside—hopefully with somebody in their face—avoid fouls, ASU and not let them get the ball into Ricky Chatman," he said.

She turned in a pair of fourth place finishes, one in the high jump with a 5-4 mark, and an impressive 37-2 in the triple jump. A strong freshman class is sure to be an asset for this year's team, too. With Melissa Rogers, Jesse Hoeverman and Kelly Price, Coach Weaver is optimistic about this and future seasons. More highlights of the Lady Apps included Patricia Denson's 5-4 leap in the high jump for a second place finish, the 4x400 meter relay team of Melissa Rogers, Lisa Lyde, Tonya Kiser and Deirdre Keyes which finish­ ed in fourth with a time of 4:10.

The Board of Governors approved the policy which will now be utilized by each of the 15 schools in the UNC system. The major con­ cern with the new statement is that it emphasizes punishment rather than rehabilitation. ASU's previous drug policy allowed a greater flexibility of punishments than does the new policy. Under the new system, students possessing cocaine or other hard drugs are automatically suspended for a semester. While this type of punishment is certainly deserved, it does not address the problem at hand. Suspending a student does not cure a drug problem or aid in rehabilitation. Once suspended, there will be more opportunity for drug use to oc­ cur because the student will not have the structured environment of a university for rehabilitation. Furthermore, the chances are slim that a student with such problems would return to school after suspension. Discontinuing education is not the answer. The new policy will also affect faculty members in possession of co­ caine or other hard drugs by suspending them from teaching for one semester. Fortunately, the administration recognizes the problem and is work­ ing toward a solution. The Appalachian State University Substance Abuse Task Force con­ sisting of three students, six faculty, four staff and three ad­ ministrators, has been created in an attempt to combat issues concern­ ing the new drug policy. On Wednesday, February 10 and Thursday, February 11 from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. this committee will meet in the Stu­ dent Union Pub to address issues of the new drug policy. Videos on alcohol and illegal drugs will be shown, and BACCHUS will provide free mocktails. Administrators hope the task force will be able to develop ideas which can be used in ASU's new drug policy, comply with the UNC system and suit the needs of ASU students. Will this program really work? It seems that most students who have a drug problem either don't know it, or won't admit to it. Certainly something needs to be done in the way of drug rehabilitation programs, but it is much easier to start these programs than it is to get people to participate. Students who have drug problems or have friends with drug prob­ lems are unlikely to step forth with ideas concerning drug rehabilitation programs. Perhaps a rehabilitation program should be created which would allow students, faculty and staff to remain anonymous while seeking help. These individuals should be protected from the punishments of the new system. No one would willingly admit to a drug problem knowing it would result in suspension or temporary job termination. Hopefully, concerned students, faculty and staff will eagerly par­ ticipate in creating the new ASU policy. The efforts of the administration and task force members should be however, only time will tell whether or not the programs developed will be successful in combatting drug abuse. aPplauded, BLOOM COUNTY I ^ MICHELE HOLLOWELL. Copy Editor BRAD MCNEELY. Circulation Manager PEOPUI FEAR OUR OPTIONS FOR ft MEAPOW PARTY PRES/PENVAL CMMM AREAS WLY AS USUAL... THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1988 Resource abuse is worldwide Scarcity. Supply-and-demand. The most basic of all economic principles: if there's less of something than people want of it, you'll have to pay to get it, with the price being proportional to how many peo­ ple want it, how badly they want it, and how little of it there is. We put this principle into action nearly every time we pull out our checkbook, while economists make big bucks deciphering its complexities for govern­ ments and industries. However, most supply-anddemand modulation is done on the demand side, by changing consumer interest through media, etc., with the changes in the supply side being mostly artificial creations—OPEC holding back oil, for instance—to promote specific economic conditions, rather than a true shortage of any commodity. As I described in my last column, though, this will change: resources will become scarce in the somewhat near future, and prices will go up, unless we change our demands to meet the available supply. I spoke of alternative energy sources as a way to avoid socio-economic collapse: what 1 did not discuss was the additional impact our industrial society has on other-than-energy resources. In addition to using more and more of the world's non-renewable resources each year, industrialization also consumes fresh water, land, and air; and unlike energy resources such as oil, there are no substitutes for these. Water is perhaps the most immediately threatened and threatening of the "cold" (i.e. non-energy) resources. We all drink the water that comes out of our faucets almost without a thought as to where it comes from or what it goes through before it reaches us, yet recgnt statistics show that much of America's drinking water has potentially deadly pollutants in it. Even beyond the thought that your everyday water supply might be contaminated, think what it would be like without that nice purification plant your town sends its water through—or imagine what it was like recently in the areas downriver of Pitts­ burgh, with an inch of petroleum scum on your water supply and no more bottled water on the shelves of the grocery store. I'm glad that this time it wasn't me—but it could be all of us if we don't watch out for what we have left. Every major river system in the world is seriously polluted in at least one area. Several cities cannot purify the very river that runs through them enough to be drinkable by their populace, while others tolerate a higher level of pollutants than safety Views from ing topsoil and polluting water, and other industrialization doing the same, we are also pump­ ing all kinds of dangerous stuff into our atmosphere, both from factory smokestacks and auto exhausts, and such innocuous objects as refrigerators and deoderant cans. Every major urban area has air pollution problems, and although many people joke about "smog," few realize how deadly it can be: in 1952, a temperature inversion trapped smog over would warrant in order to avoid having to seek an London, and the buildup was so thick that visibility alternate water supply.

Plato: super-ego in postmodernist reality By JONATHAN YORK Appalachian Columnist Plato denounced me while he "necked" with my Oedipus complex atop the wings of an American-built pterodactyl, which some executive in Detroit thought it commercially expe­ dient to nickname the "Courtesan." Plato denounced my reference to his person in this article: "I don't want to be your alter-ego," he pro­ claimed in immaculate Greek, which I didn't understand (I'm guessing at this translation). Actually, I've never heard spoken Greek so I can't even begin to imagine what it would sound like, Italian, perhaps? Nein...Rus­ sian? Yes, I believe it would sound something like Ruskie only somewhat less guttural. At any rate, Russian ain't Greek so I'm going beyond my scope when I attempt to recreate the dialogue of Greek-tongued pederasts. "Write about what you know," or so the old, worn platitude goes. Amendment: "I don't want to be your alter-ego," he proclaimed in im­ maculate North Carolinian, which Platypus himself didn't understand. "Now, young man," he continued with his newfound bar-bar affection, "explain the seemingly meaningless first paragraph of this article." (This isn't working; I can't listen to Pluto like this. He looks like Jesse Helms in a toga. Let's see—I'll give him a Brooklyn accent and clothe him in leather, nyet. I know, I'll provide him with a British accent, leave him in a toga, and cast Laurence Olivier in the part when this is made into a feature film.) To begin with, Play-Dough, you don't represent my alter-ego, you are my super-ego, Daddums. And you weren't "necking" with my Oedipus complex, that was simply a euphemistic way of saying that you were humping Freud's "Dream of Irma's Injection," dig? And incidental­ ly, you weren't soaring on lizard wings either; you were in the backseat of a shit-green Plymouth Duster, in the parking lot of a discotheque, circa 1977. "So?" he inquired, squinting his furry brow. "What does it all mean?" I should have replied: "Nothing." I should have explained that this entire literary experience was a ruse designed to coax him out of the philosophical text and place him in a more pedestrian context, put him in a new environment, broaden his horizons,. Instead, I half-heartedly lied that the article was intended to be an experi­ ment in postmodern journalism that I had originally planned to conclude with a confession of its postmodernity, a gratuitous route 1 have since abandoned. by Berke Breathed PORTNOY, ONE ME A CURRENT SCANUAL REPORT ON BILL THE CAT.

"So we've got to wait and see what the investigation turns up." ASU's China project is one of the strongest in the southeast, and one of the oldest. "We were into China when it was not even fashionable to be into China," Director of International Studies Dr. Lawrence Horine said. "Many students who have gone over there have had just a tremen­ dous, wonderful experience," Wiiliamsen said. "Every student who has come back from there* has spoken very highly of what the experience has meant to them." "So we're not going to just wipe that out without looking hard at the situation and investigating, but neither are we going to put our people into an environmnt that has any kind of predictable threat," he added. ASU has two students and two faculty families in China, one of which is the Kindt family who will be returning home next weekend.

Director of China Projects Dr. Marvin Wiiliamsen Absentee voting is a quick and easy process By STANNA SIMANDLE Appalachian Staff Writer A Presidential Preference Primary will be held on March 8. Although the primary falls within the university's spring break, students will be able to vote. Students who will be in Watauga County on March 8, and are registered to vote in Watauga County, can vote at the location assigned to them when they registered to vote. Students who will not be in Watauga County on March 8 may still vote in the county by absentee ballot. Absentee voting begins February 9 and runs through March 4. Three forms of absentee voting make it easy for students to vote before the actual voting day. First, a student may write a letter to the courthouse requesting an application. When the application has been approved, a ballot will be sent to the student in the mail. Once the student has filled out the ballot, the envelope into which the ballot is placed must be signed by two witnesses over 18 years of age.

New Navy program proviedsfinancial support By CHARLEY BELCHER Appalachian Staff Writer The Navy recently began a new program entitled, the Baccalaureate Degree Comple­ tion Program (BDCP), to provide financial support to college students to complete bac­ calaureate degree requirements and obtain Naval Reserve Officer Commissions. After being accepted into the program by the Navy recruiting district nearest their col­ lege or university, students are placed in an active duty status and begin receiving full pay and allowances for meals and housing while attending college. Full pay, according to Mitch Welch from the Officer Programs Department, is $850 a month plus food and housing. "Eight hundred and fifty dollars a month to go to school full time isn't bad," Welch said. There is no requirement to wear a uniform or participate in drilling while actively in school.

To attract new members By NICOLE PARSONS Appalachian News Editor There will be a free dance and party this Fri­ day night in the Student Union Pub sponsored by various organizations helping to promote and open themselves up to prospective members. The six different orgnaizations sponsoring the dance are American Society Personal Ad­ ministration (ASPA), Campus Residence Stu­ dent Association, Rho Epsilon, Hospitality Management Student Association, Sigma Ep­ silon and Gamma Iota Sigma. "(This dance is being held) to publicize our organizations to freshmen and sophomore students on campus, President of ASPA and coordinator of the dance Wayne Leonard said. There will be contact tables set up for in­ terested students to talk with the different club presidents and other members during the dance. "Lots of these organizations are small and are in need of members. It's a flip of the coin whether organizations get started up and we want to make sure the organizations make it from year to year," Leonard said. Each organization specializes in an area and helps students familiarize themselves with that particular area. American Society Personal Administration introduces students to personal management while Hospitality management introduces students to Hotel Resort management. Gam­ ma Iota Sigma specializes in Insurance, Pi Sigma Epsilon in marketing and Rho Epsilon in Real Estate. "These (organizations) are extenstions of the classroom and give people a chance to know what's happening in that field," Leonard said. "It's especially good for freshmen and sophomores to get involved who don't know what or aren't sure about their major," Leonard added. The dance is free and open to the ASU stu­ dent body. It will be held Friday, February 5, and will last from 8 p.m. until 1 a.m. Two hun­ dred dollars in door prizes will be given away.

And, before I go any further, I would like to comment on my colleague's last piece on redheads. Yes, it is true what they say about redheads—I should know, I am one (well, sort of auburn, or strawberry blond), but anyway. I hope everyone had a great Christmas and New Year. I got a trip to Maui, a Porsche...not really. Anyway (I keep saying that) one of the things that intrigues me most at the end of a year is the great multitude of "top ten" type lists. I've decided to do one of my own, mainly about life at school, so, without further ado, from the home office in Boone, N.C., here is my version: Top ten most irritating occurrences for college life '87: 1. Having three papers due in two weeks with only one typewriter, and no motivation to do them. 2. The only person you know who is 21 went home. 3. The clock-radio alarm. 4. Getting written up for someone else's crap. 5. Unclean bathrooms. 6. Those little irritating fuzzballs on your carpet. 7. Running out of Doritoes when you really need them. 8. Being broke as absolute hell. 9. Having hot shower water turn cold. 10. Huey Lewis. Ten best excuses for not turning in an assignment on time '87: 1. My grand­ mother died. 2. My dog ate my paper. 3. My dog ate my grandmother. 4. Wrecked the Ferrari (darn it!). 5. Food poisoning (BI). 6. Roommate turned off alarm.. .golly, that joker! 7. Really sick (too much Beam, but SHHH!) 8. Tornado hit dorm. 9. Ummmm... 10. I forgot (a classic). The ten best adjectives for being drunk '87: 1. I Shmoted. 2. Blind. 3. Soused. 4. Clueless. 5. Blitzed. 6. Busched. 7. Quaisted. 8. Juiced. 9. Moshed. 10. Ackk! Ten of the hardest things to do '87: 1. Get your keys out of your pocket after you've already sat down and buckled your seat belt (only guys can relate). 2. Not bounce a check. 3. Make it to class without an important appendage freezing and falling off. 4. Fall asleep when Rob (next door) is blasting his stereo. 5. Not be bored in Boone. 6. Call your parents. 7. Make it to 8 a.m. Biology. 8. Buy beer. 9. Keep food in room for more than a week 10. Find a clean john in any guys' residence hall. Ten best phrases of '87 (Descriptive or otherwise): 1. Good Scuba 2. Dude. 3. What up? (only for certain substance abusers). 4. Mosh that 5. To kill or die for... (good scuba maybe). 6. Crap! 7. Holy bull doo-doo 5.fou are a freakin' doughball. 9. Sh- happens! 10. Balls out (or Dweeb whichever). Anyone who has entered the stu­ dent court system at ASU has gladly encountered the support the Public Defender's office provides. "Basically what the Public Defender's office stands for is that we represent the students," Public Defender Mark Skidmore said. "We get involved with the students; we're here to help the students." "Basically what the Public Defender's office stands for is that we repre­ sent the students." Mark Skidmore Public Defender =========^=-SBS When a student is charged with an offense, a charge letter is sent to him or her along with a copy of the inci­ dent report and instructions to con­ tact the Public Defender within four days. Copies of the report and the charge letters are also sent to the Chief Justice, the Attorney General, and the Public Defender. The Public Defender meets with the student to get a first hand account of the incident and to work with the stu­ dent in defense preparation. The stu­ dent has the choice of pleading guilty or not guilty to the charge. "When people get written up I make sure they understand what the court proceedures are," Deputy Public Defendent Wendy Lisk said. "If they're guilty I try to get them a low sanction and if they're not guilty I try to prove it." Defending students is the number one priority in the PD office. "I feel like the Public Defender's office has done a lot of work and I enjoy it because I get to meet a lot of people." Shelly Kaehr Former Deputy Defender It is the duty of the Public Defender to act as advocate for the accused. This means the student is to be given every possible chance to prove his in­ nocence.

"I did what they said and they could tell I cared," Asbury explained. The position of concert council chairman carries much responsibility. Asbury makes sure the duties before a show are completed by a council member and everyone is where they should be before and during a show. If someone isn't available to complete a task, Asbury must make sure it's taken care of, or does it himself. "I have a lot of responsibility. It's work but it is what I enjoy doing. I really enjoy working with people, it puts me in a position of leadership," Asbury said. As Concert Chairperson, Asbury must attend Executive council meetings. "I pretty much work directly with Randy Kelly," Asbury said. Asbury's interests are closely related to his work. He has always loved music, which is what led him to join A.P.P.S. "Working with people and music at the same time goes well together," Asbury explained. "I doubt I'll be chairman after this semester," Asbury said, "but I would like to try a couple of other councils before I graduate to find out what I like." "It's working for the rights of students." By ANDREA ANDERSON Okay this was extremely light-hearted, but it was a blast to write. These top tens were also out of my own interactions with other people, and I know that many of you have a lot of different experiences, but I hope I'm at least slightly representative of 1987.

It is also the duty of the Public Defender to appeal cases to Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Dr. David Mclntire when circumstances warrant it. "It's working for the rights of students," former Deputy Public Defender Shelly Kaehr said. The Public Defender is appointed by the president of the SGA. He then has the right to hire a deputy and an assistant, subject to senate approval. "This is excellent experience," Skidmore said. He is currently con­ sidering a legal career. Appalachian Photo by Rich Ko Appalachian Photo by Alllton Loyfon Deadlines are important! A different perspective Dutch correspondence from abroad By ROALD VERHELST Special lo The Appalachian Editor's Note: This story is writ­ ten by a native of Heerlen, Holland. Heerlen is a picturesque town with lots of open pubs and many bicycles. The author hopes to come to the states after graduation and in his words, "work in a restaurant and be a •cute waiter." The Netherlands. Ever heard about that country? Most people know The Netherlands under the name Holland. Holland is a country situated in the northwest por­ tion of Europe. We have about 15 million inhabitants and about 20 million cycles. The bike is conveyance number one here. Our country is not very big; your state, NC, is about four, times bigger. Holland is on the coast surrounded with dunes and dikes. If they were not there, half of the country would be swallowed by the sea. Most people live under sea-level, but I live in the Dutch mountains which are about 300 metres above sea-level. Now I'll try to tell you how we live here. (That sounds as if we come from another planet, but we don't.) We begin school when we are four years old. We then do six years of oiornentary school. Then we go to a secondary school, which is almost the same as high school. We have four levels in high school. (I use this word instead of secondary school, because it sounds familiar in your ears.) hope it is not too bad, but we have to do Dutch, German, French and English in high school. Now I'm going to tell you about what we do with our spare time. Go­ ing out is the most important thing we Holland is a country do in our spare time. Besides that we situated in the northwest watch television, listen to music, do sports, and everbody has their hob­ portion of Europe. We bies. My hobbies beside radio/TV have about 15 million in­ are: writing, drawing, collecting habitants and about 20 cigarette lighters and a lot more. But most time I'm with my friends. million cycles.

Sometimes they ask you on the street if you wanna buy some coke. Enough about this now. What to visit when you want to come to Holland? The first thing to visit is Amsterdam. This city has a lot of galleries. You can also do great shopping in A'dam. Then you can go to The Hague (Den Haag in Dutch), Rotterdam and maybe Heerlen, where you can find me at one of my favorite pubs. You can also make a trip through Europe. We have everything close together. Great Britain, with the rainy weather and London, and of course the real language; Sweden, Norway and Finland with the beautiful nature, Switzerland and Austria with the high mountains; France has the real good wine and the fashion city Paris; and then, last but not least, Spain with the good weather and great beaches. Because everything is so close together here in Europe, we don't often go to other continents. I've never been outside of Europe, because it is much cheaper to stay here than go to Canada or the States. I hope this gives you some idea �THE APPALACHIAN, TUF.SDA Y, FEBRUARY 2, 1988 Rhodo m Continued from Page 3 ' •! 115 Igi l!»- 18 lit! m II hard parts. "I feel like it is my responsibility at this point to stick it out and do a good job," Hughes said. The relationship with others on the staff helps to get over the rough parts, late at night, too. "I feel like I've made a lot of good friends over here," Hughes said. The late nights are all worth it, according to Swenson, but perhaps this won't be fully realized until years have passed. She likes the fact that classmates will use their Rhododen­ dron to remember their years at ASU. "A yearbook is kind of a history book," she said. "I hope that I have helped to bring some laughter to peo­ ple when they're 30 or 40 years old." they are doing all of this, especially at 2 a.m. when they have a deadline at 4 p.m. the next day, and still have an incredible amount of work to do. "I've asked myself that question so many times it's not funny," Swenson said. For Swenson personally, she has a "love affair with yearbooks." "It is something that is in my blood," she said. "You've got the book and it's gonna last forever." Hughes cited a similar reason for working so hard. She finds it appeal­ ing that she's "helping to produce something that will last," she said.

Again this year, the lesson to be derived from the Superbowl for all coaches, players, and fans is that defense wins championships. Every year since the inception of the game, the team with the best defense has won. Just mn down the list of winners and see what pops into your mind, Redskins, Giants, Bears.... *** Please, stop singing the praises of J.R. Reid. Everybody already knows he is a fantastic post player, has a soft touch, runs the floor well, etc. But Jeff Lebo runs the team; without him, the team doesn't work. Maybe Dean Smith knows what he is talking about when he says he doesn't understand why the press hounds Reid. J.R. is a great post player, but he still isn't David Robinson. *** Iowa State on Saturday. Big deal. Once again, Big Eight teams will run up huge scores playing the weak sisters of the NCAA to get as many berths in the tournament as possible. I don't think there will be a single Big Eight team in the Sweet Sixteen. The conference might be able to make me a believer if just one team would win a significant non-conference game on the road. Oklahoma beat The NBA All-Star game is on Sunday. The fans will be treated to the best athletes in the world showing their wares. A few predictions: 3-point Contest Winner- Larry Bird Slam Dunk Winner- Michael Jordan Game MVP- Charles Barkley Why Charles Barkley? Because up to this point in the season, he is by far the most dominant player in the NBA, and he has the sort of flashy game the voters love. THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1988 ASU student was Bronco replacement during NFL strike Rv JERRY SNOW By TFDDV CNnU/ Democrat Sports Writer Reprinted with permission from Watauga Democrat, January 29, 1988 Nearly everyone will watch the Super Bowl between the Denver Broncos and Washington Redskins, but no one in this area will watch with as much interest as Appalachian State student Darryl Russell. Russell completed his football career with the Mountaineers in 1986 and tried out with the Broncos as a defensive back last summer. Though the 6-0, 195-pounder didn't make the 45-man roster, Russell was called back to play for the Broncos during the strike. Because he played in three regularseason games for the Super Bowl par­ ticipants, he qualifies for half of the playoff earnings his former team receives. Russell earned $5,000 for Denver's first-round victory and another $9,000 for its AFC Championship Darryl Russell game. Even if the Broncos lose on Super Bowl Sunday, Russell is guaranteed another $9,000, but a victory will net him an additional $18,000—meaning his playoff earnings will be no less than $23,000 and no more than $32,000. "I've got a little bit at stake so I'll be sweating," Russell said. "I went through camp with most of those guys, so I'll be pulling for them, but money's always an incentive." A native of Harvey, 111., Russell was a track star at Bloom Township High School as a prepster and has returned to that sport since com­ pleting his college football eligibility. Russell is currently in his second season with the ASU track team and ranks as the squad's top sprinter this season, according to Coach Bob Pollock. Russell's clocking of 4.3 seconds in the 40-yard dash makes him one of the faster players in an NFL camp and is the main reason he'll get another shot at a pro career this summer. "I'd rather go back to Denver," Russell said, referring to his free agen­ cy that allows him to try out with whoever wants him. "I feel I have a better chance of making that team. I know the system and I know what's expected. "Denver's one of the better organizations in the league. They've been very fair to me." During his three weeks in the NFL, which included a Monday night vic­ tory over the Los Angeles Raiders when he blocked a punt on national television, Russell earned approx­ imately $15,000. That sum of money allowed Russell to purchase his 1985 Pontiac Firebird. With the additional earnings a Denver victory would bring, Russell could buy his car a twin if he so chooses. So if you have a friendly wager on the Super Bowl or happen to feel strongly for one of the teams, just remember that no one will be happier than Darryl Russell if the Denver Broncos do the victory dance—$9,000 happier.

The Lady Mountaineers had to take their game to another level in Rock Hill, SC. Ann Copeland's Eagles played very physical ball with four Eagles fouling out of the game. As has been the case in most of the games this season, the Lady Apps proved they can play both the finesse type fast break game and the physical inside game. The Appalachian attack featured Whiteside's 21 points, Johnson's and Beth Laney's 8 rebounds apiece. Mar­ cheta Sigmon showed the bench strength of the Lady Apps con­ tributing 7 points and 7 rebounds in only 16 minutes. Winning two in a row on the road against above average competition assures the Lady Apps' fans that Robinson has her team back on track after a disappointing loss to UTC on the road. Saturday's win propelled the Lady Mountaineers to a 16-3 record, 4-1 in the conference. There is a two way tie atop the Southern Conference bet­ ween Marshall and ASU.

The Apps got additional scoring off of the bench from senior Sanford Killian and Willie Allen. ASU went on to win the game by the score of 108-90. ASU Head Coach Tom Apke was pleased with the performance of the team and their shooting. "I was really impressed with our in­ terior play in the game. We were able to take away the shots that ETSU was used to taking," he said. "The thing I'm most pleased about is that we played hard, did the things we were supposed to do, and especial­ ly, we played with poise," he added. Coach Robinson was disappointed with the loss, but he was complimen­ tary of the performance of the ASU squad. "We got beat because ASU played a great game. They played with great team work and patience and I didn't expect them to be able to run with the ball like they aid," he commented. Rodney Peel had 20 points to lead the Apps and Ronnie Christian con­ trolled the boards with 7 rebounds. The Mountaineers are now 11-7 overall and 4-3 in the Southern Con­ ference. They travelled to UNCAsheville last night for a nonconference bout.

During spring break, two trips are available. Dr. Larry Horine is sponsoring a six day skiing trip to Zell am Zee, Austria, which costs $1075. For approximately $1470, Biology majors can study the tropical rain forest of Costa Rica from March 2-10 with Dr. R. Wayne Van Devender. There are seven summer programs available which begin in May, June and July. On May 16, Dr. Wolff from the English Department will take students to such places as the Greek Isles, Rome, Florence, Salzburg, Munich, Paris and London for a detailed study of Europe. This "Odyssey of Western Literature," will cost approximately $2500, and will last until June 13. Students can study French or business in a Paris suburb from May 31 to July 6. Estimated cost is $1380-$1495, and Dr. Jean-Pierre Courbois is the sponsor. Other business programs include Dr. John Reeder's trip to Japan from June 18 to July 21, and Dr. Kenneth Peacock's excursion to Wurzburg, West Germany, from July 1-30. The Wurzburg program also provides opportunities for foreign language students. Dr. Ulrich Froelich is sponsoring the German pro­ gram. Both Wurzburg programs cost $1575. For those students who enjoy golf, Dr. Larry FForine is sponsoring a $1250-51350 trip to St. Andrews, Scotland from July 22-30. From June 1 to August 20, students can study resort management in the Caribbean with Dr. Gerald Glover. The trip includes stops in Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands and Barbados and costs $1335-$ 1385. Three semester/year programs are offered in Kingston, Denmark and Sheffield. Other programs are offered through the International Student Exchange Program (ISEP). The ASU and Northeastern University of Technology in China ex­ change program is unique. Each year ASU sends two faculty members and two students to China, and NEUT sends two faculty members and one student to ASU. The cost of these programs may appear high at first, but not when compared to the cost of summer school at ASU. According to the Registrar's office, summer school costs $40 per hour for a five week session. Exchange program costs include plane tickets, lodging and often times food. Overseas travel greatly enhances education. Much more can be learned by visiting a place rather than reading about it in a book. The Office of International Studies has worked diligently to in­ crease the number of programs and opportunities available to students. Anyone interested in more information on overseas programs should call the Office of International Studies at 262-2046. Students should take advantage of these excellent learning oppor­ tunities.

A student's dog ran out onto the ice, chasing a flock of ducks. Upon reaching the middle of the pond where the ducks were located and the pond was unfrozen, the dog jumped into the water. The dog tried to crawl out of the water, but could not lift his body up onto the ice. The dog's owner tried to persuade the dog to get out of the water, but the dog could not muster the strength. The student then journeyed out onto the ice, crawling toward the middle of the pond. My argument is not with his heroics or the dog's ig­ norance. I was watching the whole event from my room and I became fearful for both the dog and the student. By this time, a crowd of well over one hundred were watching the pro­ ceedings. To make a long story short, the dog was recovered safely and the student is dry, also. His actions were very heroic, but also very foolish. My argument is not with his heroics or the dog's ignorance. I was watchine the event from my room and I became fearful for both the dog and the student. If the ice were to break, the student would have gone into immediate shock from the cold water. After this occurrence, anything could have happened and probably would. So I decided to call Emergency 911 to, at least, get someone in authority to watch over the pro­ ceedings. I told the lady on the phone (I call her lady in reference t I her gender and not to the politeness of her voice) what was happening and that she should send a patrol car over to make sure everyone would be safe, because it would be too late to wait until something happened. She insisted that since it was on ASU property that it was under their jurisdiction, and that I would have to call them. She very politely gave me the number and proceeded to hang up on me. Now, I am employed by the University to work security in Justice Hall and on any such emergency I am supposed to call Boone Police (Emergency 911) before doing anything. I did that and look what happened. By this time, the student and his dog were safely on ground. Unknown to me at the time, a friend of mine did the same thing that I had done yet he had called security. They told him that they would send someone "if they deemed it necessary." My friend watched for 20 minutes after the event just to see if security would show up. They never showed. She insisted that since it was on ASU property that it was under their jurisdic­ tion, and that I would have to call them. She very politely gave me the number and proceeded to hang up on me. If the young hero would've fallen through the ice, it may have taken another hero from the crowd to save him because Boone Police and ASU Security were nowhere to be found. Of course, we cannot directly blame the officers on duty who had no con­ trol as to the nature of this event. It is the controllers of the emergency lines that are to blame, for they do not know an emergency when they hear one. Thank God we did not need their services this day. Charles R. Wilson ASU Box 8099 Ticket buying should be limited To the Editor: The recent sale of Jimmy Buffett concert tickets left many students angry and disappointed. After waiting all night, or making a point to go early for a number reserving a spot in the ticket line, those who made the effort were left with seats no closer than the seventh row. As has been pointed out in a previous letter to the editor, the first fifteen numbers for buying tickets were given (supposedly) to members of A.P.P.S. This seems a fair reward to those members who put the time and effort into the concert. However, one of these first fifteen Buffett fans purchased over $900 worth of tickets. It seems obvious that a limit should be placed on the number of tickets given to one in­ dividual. Using the current system, five IDs would still buy 30 tickets. My proposal would be to limit the number of tickets that may be pur­ chased by A.P.P.S. members. A ticket for the A.P.P.S. member and one guest seems reasonable. For any further purchases, the A.P.P.S. member should be required to stand in line as all other students would. Also, the number of tickets sold to any other student should be limited to possibly 10 tickets, regardless of the number of IDs presented. I realize thi* is a fairly small number of tickets, and I myself bought 12. In any case, this would provide a more fair system for all students at ASU.

"We finally selected half of the jury and the other six are in limbo. I don't know how long the jury selec­ tion will take," District Attorney Tom Rusher said. So far there is only one faculty member, art professor Dr. Margaret Poison, on the jury and none of the jurors are students. Also Monday several pre-trial motions were denied. Among those denied were a Change of Venue which would have involved the case being moved from Watauga County Court­ house to another court. Also denied was the questioning of each juror individually. "This is contrary to how it is usual­ ly done," Rusher said. After the 12-man jury selection is completed, evidence will be introduced into the trial. The two men on trial are 22-year old Jon Clemmer and 23-year old Darren Waldrop both of Gastonia, tyC. They are charged with firstdegree murder in the death of Jabe Hardee, killed July 11 during a party at the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity house. istrict Attorney Toiri Rusher was asked why he was seeking a firstdegree murder conviction for the accused rather than f*>p death nenalty. 1 he statute we are operating under specifies aggravating factors must be involved before we can seek the death penalty, there are none as such," Rusher said. Hardee was a sophomore at ASU and a member of the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity. Pre-trial hearings began as early as July 30 and some fraternity members testified. One member testified that the shooting occurred after a fight involv­ ing Clemmer and Waldrop with other fraternity members when they were asked to leave then returned later to the fraternity house. The trial is expected to last at least a week. Advisor to the Interfraternity Council Dino DiBernardi feels this unfortunate incident could have hap­ pened to any campus organization and should not be associated with just Greek fraternities. Darren Waldrop sits beside "1 don't think that it was anything the Pi Kappa Phi's did.

Designated Driver's program restarting By HARRY LYNN DOWLESS within the minds of student in­ dividuals. The program consists of allowing intoxicated individuals a means for safe transport back to their place of residence. First, several individuals assemble as a group before travelling to the drinking establishment. Upon entrance at the bar, the designated driver announces to the waitperson or bartender, that he is driving and thereby, receives all non-alcoholic drinks free of charge. The goal of the program is to keep one member of the party with alcohol-free blood. Appalachian Slaff Writer It is well known that many univer­ sities, as well as the nation itself, face severe problems annually due to in­ toxicated drivers. Most groups and individuals agree hat incidents due to intoxication can >e curbed through a heightening bareness beginning at the drinking ge. A university creates an education tmosphere and ASU feels awareness oncerning the dangers of intoxicaion should be established within the tudent body as part of the education ystem. ^ system entitled "The Designated twers Program" was created by the nt Government Association as a rans '° heighten this awareness Graduate Senate fleets % STAmNA SIMANDLE Appalachian Slaff Writer Gra<3uate Student Association held their first meeting tnuarv ien?ester Monday night, act d • ?' ln 'he graduate office in Residence Hall. f (°SAS) encp „r''.e.d the continuing inconve'eritoi j Library's hours »ur. 1 ays> breaks, and Friday and av en " "'8hts.

"Boone (because of snow and ice) is deadly to a driver when sober and much more so when drunk," SGA Community Affairs Director Jeff Merritt said. Jeff Merrill Merritt was spurred into action by the death of a fraternity brother due to intoxication. Merritt wants to pre­ vent further incidents of alcoholrelated deaths or injuries with this program. "ASU is the first university to establish a program as such," Merritt said, "and we hope to serve as a future role model to others (univer­ sities)." The program was started last year, but due to the lack of response it didn't get off the ground. It is hoped the program will be more successful this semester. "If the program prevents one in­ dividual from reaching the bars of in­ carceration or the hands of death due to intoxication, then it has been a great success overall," Rules Commit­ tee Chairperson Gram Spear said.

Student drinking remains steady (CPS)—While anti-drinking rules cost Marquette University cheerlead­ ers their jobs during the holiday break and could land two North Carolina State students in jail, a California State University (CSU) at Dominquez Hills professor concluded campus at­ titudes still encourage students to drink. Students, added CSU's Dr. David Nasatir in reporting the results of the University of California at Berkeley study he helped direct, seem to be drinking as much as they always have, despite intense campus efforts to the contrary. Most schools around the U.S. have cranked up "alcohol awareness" policies since 1985, when federal laws forced states to raise their legal drink­ ing ages from 18 to 21. To get liability insurance, colleges had to demonstrate to insurance com­ panies that they were keeping their underaged students from drinking liquor. But the Berkeley study suggested there has been no profound increase or decrease in student drinking since the new policies began. The reason is that many schools, Nasatir said, "are lax in observing violations of the drinking minimum age." Alcohol, moreover, is often an integral part of social and athletic events, and the "awareness" pro­ grams, are rendered ineffective. Nasatir's research, part of an on­ going study of campus alcohol use, noted fraternities have helped keep general students drinking rates high. "Young men living in fraternities seem to drink more often and larger quantities than any other group of similar young men in dormitories, or with roommates," Nasatir said. "It's not clear whether that's because fraternities recruit drinkers or manufacture drinkers," Nasatir con­ tinued. "But that seems to be a phenomenon that holds true on all campuses with fraternities." A solution, he suggested, might be to crack down on people and groups who serve liquor to students. "This has a chilling effect on individual will­ ingness to serve alcohol." At Marquette, however, a group of cheerleaders quit in December instead of tolerating a crackdown. Eleven cheerleaders quit the Milwaukee college's squad after school officials suspended 2 cheer­ leaders for swiping some leftover bot­ tles of champagne from a private par­ ty. \ "They said they could no longer cheer" with two members suspended for something they all took part in or knew about, Marquette's associate dean of students, Mark McCarthy said. Former cheerleader Kim Heller, one of those suspended, said cheerleaders often took leftover champagne from parties they had worked at as hostesses to save for a celebration after the first basketball game of the season. However, the boat company that sponsored the par­ ty complained to the school. At the same time Raleigh, N.C., police charged two North Carolina State students with counterfeiting drivers' licenses and selling them to classmates to use them to buy alcohol. The two students build a large replica of a license. They would then take photos of customers standing in front of the replica, and process the resultant artwork as a fake license. The students, each charged with two counts of counterfeiting and sell­ ing drivers' licenses, could serve three years in prison if found guilty.

JANUARY 28, 1988 35mm Heidi VanDyne Bounced checks end up costing you more You're walking through the mall and suddenly you see it—the very thing you have always wanted! It's the right size, color, style, eveything! You rush into the store and slam the "object de desire" on the sales counter. You pull out your wallet and... no cash. You just know that if you wait until later to buy the thing, it will be gone. \k Wait! You'll write a check! You scribble your John Hancock on the bottom line and viola!; the treasure is yours. But a week later, your bank notifies you that your check has been returned. Unfortunately, that does not mean that the merchant decided to give you the item and not accept vour money for it. On the contrary, he would have ac­ cepted your check if it hadn't picked I up this peculiar habit of bouncing. So now what do you do? The bank has called you and made you aware that your check has been "returned to insufficient funds". First, you need to find out who the check was written to. Then if you have the money, pay off the check in cash (don't try to write the guy another check!) If you don't have the money, you need to get in touch with the merchant to make other ar­ rangements. But you're not off the hook yet. The bank can assess a charge for processing the bad check. This penal­ ty can cost you anywhere from $10 to $20 per check What's more, the mer­ chant also can tack on a penalty of his own, which can mean an additional $5 to $20 per check. Therefore, what started out being a $10 item can wind up costing you $50. If you do not contact the merchant, and he has been unsuccessful in con­ tacting you, then he can swear out a criminal arrest warrant for the bad check. He also can resort to civil litigation to recover the amount of the check. If you are summoned to appear before a magistrate to pay off the check, it would be in your best in­ terest to seek legal advice before pay­ ing off the check, since you might be pleading guilty to a criminal offense. This guilty plea then becomes a part of your criminal record. Future employers do often inquire about, and research, criminal convictions. You see the costs of writing bad checks outweigh the benefits. You've been enlightened, saved, healed! So now what can you do to prevent this atrocity from befalling you? 1. Avoid overdrawing your check­ ing account by keeping your check­ book balanced. Also keep an up-todate address on your checks. 2. If you do inadvertently bounce a check, settle up immediately with the merchant. 3. If you have further problems, seek legal advice.

"Is it true what they say about redheads?" If I had a nickel for every time someone asked me that question, I'd be an independently wealthy woman. Being raised a redhead in the South—a place well known for its country say­ ings and folk tales I grew up hearing all kinds of interesting anecdotes about us. But it seems that at times, we redheaded women have been unjustly labeled because of our hair color. One of the biggest myths about redheads, and one I object to the most, is that we have bad tempers. After hearing this all my life, I know how it feels to be a minority. It's terribly unfair to be judged simply by appearance. just the other day a stranger reminded me of how quickly a book is judged by its cover. As I hurriedly made a purchase at the local convenience store, a man said, 'every redheaded woman I ever met was pushy, persistent and always in a hurry.' Never mind that he spoke those words in a state of intox­ ication; people usually say exactly what they feel when they're drunk. Maybe I am a bit more aggressive than some non-redheads, but my momma raised me to be independent. You can't be independent unless you stand up for yourself. Maybe I have been pushy on occasion, but I still don't know what hair color has to do with bad tempers. Personally, I hope that everyone has a temper, whether it be a hot temper, ill temper, short temper or even temper. Having no temper means being a doormat. Those who know me can verify this redhead is certainly no doormat, but I'm no hothead either. I like to think I would be tempered just as I am regardless of my red head. On the positive side, being a redheaded woman has been a lot of fun, especially when it comes to men. I can't count the times a suave, smoothtalking guy has strolled over to me from across a crowded bar and asked the dreaded auestion. "So tell me," he says as he gazes at me dreamily and his cologne brings tears to my eyes. "Is it true what they say about redheads?" Is what true about redheads? Geez. How many of you redheaded females have been told by members of the opposite sex, 'I have a thing for redheads'? Do they use this line on us exclusively? It's hard for me to imagine a guy telling a girl, 'I have a thing for brunettes.' I've even been warned by male friends to stay away from certain ;uys because they have this "thing" for redheads. Another story I love to hear is that a kiss from a redhead will cure a fever ister. In all my years, I can't recall curing anyone's fever blister, but some­ one must have tried while 1 was distracted. I'm occasionally the owner of one of those things. From bad tempers to men with a fetish for redheaded women, I thought I had heard it all. But ever since I was old enough to know the difference between the birds and the bees, one story amuses me the most. Men (of course) tell me that redheaded women are talented in the boudoir. Well, some subjects just shouldn't be discussed in public places, so I can neither defend nor attack such a statement. But a Northern gentleman once told me that a certain Southern woman is just like the weather down here. Sometimes a book simply can't be judged by its cover.

The Watauga Democrat, a local newspaper that is distributed on cam­ pus and read by many ASU students, recently received several awards. The five awards were bestowed by the North Carolina Press Association at the meeting of the 63rd Annual Newspaper Institute. The meeting was held Thursday and Friday in Chapel Hill. "I think it's in recogni­ tion of the hard work the staff puts in. It reflects everybody's involvement from the news side of the newspaper to production; so it's a staff effort." The Democrat received two first place awards in the community newspaper division. One was for the photography, which was judged expressive and especially good in features. The other first place award was for excellent sports coverage, which was often of ASU events. The two second place awards were respectively, for general excellence and for the layout and design of the paper. The final award was third place in investigative reporting for a piece about possible conflict of interest on the part of some Banner Elk town Appalachian Photo by Koith Jonot North Carolina Press Association prize winning Watauga Democrat officials.

Student theatre sets stage for diversity By DIANE WALLY Appalachian Staff Writer "Places, places! Act four, Scene one." Butterflies in your stomach before an audition, costumes that you've been working on for weeks, lines you've practiced so long that you could say them in your sleep, dress rehearsal, and opening night. By now you've probably realized that I'm talking about a theatrical production. Many of you probably enjoy going to the theatre, but maybe some of you don't know that we have our own theatre here at ASU. The Ap­ palachian University Theatre is located on the first floor of Chapell Wilson Hall. Many of the produc­ tions are performed in Chapell Wilson Auditorium. Some are also performed in IG Greer and one is, presented in the Broyhill Inn and Conference Center. The director of the Appalachian University Theatre is Dr. Susan Cole. There are many different areas in which students can become involved in the theatre she said. If you have a flair for acting, whether your ex­ perience comes from years of back­ yard productions or years of acting lessons, you are welcome at the University Theatre. Audition infor­ mation is listed in The Appalachian, displayed on posters, and announced on WASU. Auditions are open to everyone; all you have to do is go and try out. If acting is not your strong point, then you can volunteer for a number of other jobs. Among these are: set design, costumes, make up, publicity, and technical work. Volunteers are necessary because a great deal of work goes into each theatrical pro­ duction. Actors spend approximately 150 hours rehearsing for each play and at least that much time is devoted to backstage work. "Everything we (the theatre) do is Open to all students Don't fe°l like this is an exclusive kind of activity," tor Jonathan Ray said. Cole added.

Nutritional Guide to better health By SUSAN STAMPER Special lo The Appalachian This article is provided to you by the Appalachian Wellness Center at ASU. The material for this article was adapted and used with permission from an article printed in Better Health newsletter. LIFESAVERS With a little willpower, you can avoid most visible fats. Invisible fats cannot be separated or taken off your food before you eat it. They often lurk in food disguised as shortening, oil, lard, or marbling. Saturated fats in butter, lard, and meat are more harmful than unsaturated fats. Certain plant oils, such as coconut and palm oil found in nondairy creamers and snack foods are also highly saturated. Unsaturated liquid fats can be saturated and made solid by hydrogenation. The U.S. Dietary Guidelines devised by the Departments of Agriculture and Health and Human Services will be a good start toward improving your health this year. These guidelines were devised for healthy people—npt for people with health problems. Variety Consuming a wide variety of foods is essential to get the more than 40 nutrients we need each day and may be the most important feature of these guidelines. * Include all four major food groups at each meal—milk and dairy products, breads and cereals, fruits and vegetables, meats or meat substitutes. To cut down on total fat: through your intestine. Some forms of fiber are believed to lower cholesterol and improve blood sugar control. Adequate fiber intake can reduce your risk of colon cancer. * Eat two servings of fresh fruit daily. Fiber * Occasionally substitute peas or beans served with rice or bread for meats. * Include one serving of a wholegrain cereal each day. Fiber is that part of food that can­ not be digested. It adds bulk and moves food more quickly and easily * Read labels to find breads, cereals, and crackers made from 100 per­ cent whole grains rather than from * Within each major food group, include a variety of foods. enriched white flour. The first ingredient should be whole wheat flour—wheat flour usually means white flour. Fat and Cholesterol * Eat fried foods no more than twice a week. * Replace butter, mayonnaise, and regular salad dressing with low-fat versions of these products. * Cut the amount of butter, oil, and other fats in recipes by one fourth to one-half. * Avoid fast-food sandwiches and side orders, such as fries. To cut down on saturated fats: * Choose chicken, fish, turkey, lowfat cheese, and skim milk instead of beef, pork, regular cheese, or whole milk. * Remove all visible fats—chicken skin or fatty strips on steaks and hams. * Use liquid forms of oil and margarine rather than hardened fats such as shortening. * Read labels to discover the type of fat each product contains. To cut down on cholesterol: * Consume only moderate amounts of cholesterol—rich foods, such as egg yolks and organ meats such as liver. * Limit your intake of foods made with palm or coconut oil, i.e. crackers, snack foods, commer­ cially prepared cookies, nondairy creamers and chips. Sugar Many Americans believe sugar is fattening and causes diabetes mellitus or low blood sugar (hypoglycemia.) All forms of sugar contain four calories per gram or 16 calories per teaspoon. Fats contain nine calories per gram or 36 calories per teaspoon. No scientific evidence indicates that eating sugar causes diabetes, although people with diabetes must limit sugar intake. In verv rare instances sugar may contribute to hypoglycemia. Sugar plays a major role in tooth See GLIDE Page 4 �THE A PPA LA CHI A N, THURSDA Y, J A NUA R Y 28, 1988 Travelling in Africa a learning experience By RICH HUNTER Special to The Appalachian important there as it is in our cities, ie. "time is money." I saw a man preaching on the sidewalk and a few beggars here and there. There were also many shops on the sidewalk with people trying to sell me things. City buses and small buses called matatus filled the streets. Very few white people were around. It was rather strange being very much in the minority for the first time in my life. 1 can now identify to an extent with how some of the minorities here may feel.

Editor's Note: This is the second installment of the travels and views of Rich Hunter during his time spent in Africa. After arriving at my hotel in the center of the city, I spent some time with the only friend I had, the Lord. I then grabbed some lunch and went out into the city to explore a little. That afternoon I met some interesting people as I sat on the Dam square and listened to a live band. 1 met two nice guys from England who were touring Europe. Then I met a guy who blew fire and a girl who laid on broken glass to draw a crowd and collect some money; next they would go buy some cheap wine to share with the group and then do it again later in the afternoon. Some people in the group were not very accepting of me, I suppose because I did not have a Mohawk or long hair and did not drink with them or contribute towards their wine. This kind of hurt since I was alone and wanted to get to know them a little. salt causes high blood pressure, we can get by with less.

"I wouldn't do that," said Jorge merrily. "The local people say that the unusually strong wind is the spirit of the Zephyr. It will steal your soul to create wind and leave your body as stone."

It was rewarding, because I worked a lot and got paid a pretty decent amount. It was J challenging, because I had to waltz with my father in a public place with lots of people watching, and pretend that I was enjoying myself. It was even deathdefying, because I took the four kids that I babysit for shopping at Friendly Center on Christmas Eve. But entertaining.. .well? I got home about a week earlier than most of my friends. So not only was I in one of the most boring places on the face of the Earth, but I was alone, too. The next few weeks I worked, and didn't do much else. The week of New Year's Eve I had a bunch of stuff to do that was kind of nerve-wracking and kept me pretty busy. The next week, (the one before we all came back to school) I had my knee chopped open. I had been dreading this ever since Wednesday the 16 of December when I went to the doctor and discovered that surgery was the only alternative if I ever wished to have a left knee that functioned more or less like everybody else's. I Left knees have been the curse of my family since the dawn of time. I'm sure that one of my Neanderthal ancestors invented crutches. Anyway, through the entire time period between my visit to the doctor and the actual surgery people kept telling me stories of their boss' cousin's sister's husband's stepson who had this arthroscopic surgery done and how he climbed Mt.

To all these kindhearted people who told me these tales in order to show me that this surgery wasn't going to be nearly as awful as I insisted on imagining that it would be I | would like to say this. You lied. All this has a point, I promise. So I'm at home for two weeks with nothing to do, I can barely get out of bed, all my friends are at school, and I am so bored I start talking to myself. To make matters worse, snow has descended upon my hometown bringing life as we know to basically a standstill. Of course, the main roads are cleared in two days, but since I live at the bottom of a dead-end hill that is difficult to get up in July, this doesn't do me a whole lot of good. My sister and I begin to become desperate for anything with which to occupy our time. Hence, the game. Our mother could manage to get up the hill and get to work every day and even get home for lunch. So one day, she stopped at McD's and brought home three salads. After she had left again, Emily and I still had most of ours left. Emily's cat Redford was attempting to climb up on the table and into the salad ! container^while Adelaide purred and mewed for her share, and Hershey and ags (the dogs).clarified and begged.

About this time, Emily accicfehtaTly spilled her croutons on the floor. Rags immediately crunched them up. Hey, this is kind of fun! So we made a game of it called "Get That Food." It involved picking out pieces of salad and throwing it on the floor to see who got it first. Adelaide won all the pieces of lettuce because no one else was interested. That cat will eat absolutely I anything. So that's how we spent the rest of the afternoon, and you know what7 We weren't bored once. Do you know the wages of sin? ".. .two bucks an hour and work­ ing weekends" according to The Rainmakers. I always thought a per­ son sinned for nothing. Hot tea and Wild Turkey got me in the mood for listening to Tornado, the latest from The Rainmakers. What started out to be a docile hear­ ing turned out to be a late night head­ phone jam. Such is the power of Tornado (as the name implies). The blend of vocals and istruments make this one of the best albums of 1987. This Minneapolis based band sounds like they should come out of Athens, Georgia. Or maybe Los Angeles, California. Or Elbow, New Mexico. In other words, they bring forth music with a unique sound from no particular region, brothers and sisters. Hallelujah! The blend of vocals and instruments make this one of the best albums of 1987. The Rainmakers are Bob Walkenhorst singing lead vocals, playing guitars and keyboards; Steve Phillips on lead axe and vocals and Rich Ruth doing that bass and vocals thing. Pat Tomek rounds out the group with powerful, vibrant drum­ ming. The lyrics, vocals and in­ strument playing make Tornado a worthwhile album to check out. Upbeat rock with counfry and alternative seasonings is The Rain­ makers' sound. Walkenhorst's wonderfully unique, twangy voice puts in the country touch while the powerful playing of Phillips definitely comes off as rock. Its a combination as good as Wesson oil and plastic sheets. The First song on side one of the album, "Snakedance," has received airplay on several radio stations, including WRFX in Charlotte. It's a good single but not close to the best song. Why do radio stations always play the worst songs on albums, Mercury recording anyway? I never have figured that "The Wages of Sin" is simply the best song on the album. Its powerful, sacreligious lyrics mix perfectly with the fuzzy guitar sound. The country rock song contains a smattering of blues as well that grabs the listener by the ear. "Mary Mary Magdalene, how about a date? You've been wasting your time staying up so late Your boyfriend's dead, the Just about then I heard a knock at the door... " See what I mean? Other notable songs are the repetitive "Small Circles," "Rain­ maker" and "One More Summer." "Small Circles," contains subtle imagery that makes the repetition very effective in the tune. "Rain­ maker" seems to be about materialism and how people are so good at screwing up the things they want once they get them. The lyrics and tempo of "One More Summer" cause it to be a real toe-tapper, finger- tapper or whatever-part anatomy-you-like-tapper. The lyrics, vocals and ins playing make Tornado a wo album to check out. I don't recal bass lines jumping out and me, though, which is disappoi because I love tons of bass. I'm its in there somewhere. After because I didn't hear it doesn't anything. I'm deaf anyway.

I don't like rock critics much of the time either. It's a heapin' helpin' of commitment and it requires a more attentive listener. This is for lovers of music with a true living heart and lyrical perspective. So here I am writing about tfiis album; Poetic Champions Compose by Van Morrison. For those of you who don't know from experience, Van Morrison is a white soul/jazz/pop singer who became famous in the sixties by penning hits like "Brown Eyed Girl" and "Gloria" for the British invasion band, Them. After leaving that band around 1968, Morrison released a series of solo records that have secured him a place in the annals of rock myth. The records, starting with Astral Weeks and proceeding to 1972's Moondance are brilliant rushes of soulful textures set against jazz and country back­ grounds with a rustic and mystic touch. In the last several years, Van Mor­ rison has practically disappeared from the mainstream rock crowd, though he :s still a very prolific songwriter. Last year's release, No Method, No Teacher, No Guru, contained the single "Ivory Tower" and was widely acclaimed. Poetic Champions Com­ pose should be no different. This one's for you, mellowheads. From the opening whispers of <( Spanish Step," one is transformed. The mystique is not gone. The songs are fairly long in length, and carry a new age jazz flavor at point, but the characters in Van Morrison continue to be revealed. "The Mystery," and "Queen of the Slipstream" are q familiar territory for the loyal; full of a midnight blue otherworldliness and a deep foundation of conviction. "We are going to the mystery/that is so cold," sings a feverent Morrison and we also go propelled by gospel piano embellishments and dreamy, The vision is shining, melancholy, and full of retrospective revelation, on the whole, a work of bright perceptions. behind these songs.

Fighting the ban: Pop music inspected (^ It'c only rock 'n' roll, «ntr« (CPS)—It's nnl\; rr\r>Yr 'n' r-/-» 11 says best-selling author Allan Bloom, and he doesn't like it. In fact, the University of Chicago professor blames rock and other forms of popular culture for closing the American mind. "A small elite group of people define what is of value and ram it down people's throats." Jack Nachbar Pop culture professor Other educators, however, say Bloom's argument smacks of elitism, sexism and racism. University of Oklahoma English professor David Gross said "His shot at rock 'n' roll is ludicrous. It's his mind that's closed." r»l_ i t-.» —. Bloom's The Closing of the American Mind, a nationwide bestseller for more than 20 weeks, has sparked considerable debate about the role of higher education in American society. Bloom's book argues that higher education is failing because curricula no longer emphasize classical Western cultural studies. Popular culture, Bloom writes, has made Americans intellectually lazy and inept. Bloom describes a typical rock fan as "a pubescent child whose body throbs with orgasmic rhythms; whose feelings are made articulate in hymns (about) the joys of onanism or the killing of parents; whose ambition is to win fame and wealth in imitating the drag queen who makes the music." The sentiment doesn't sit well in some places.

There might as well have been two people in that bed it squeaked so damn much. With every squeak my eyes opened. 1 put a pillow over my head so 1 wouldn't hear it but [hen the vibrations would reflect up into my eardrums. Sometime the next morning Will lifted the pillow off my head a little which squeaked the bed and woke me. Surprisingly, I was in good enough spirits to perk right up. We decided to first take our showers before awakenine Lee. There were two bathrooms with showers upstairs; one for each bedroom. There would have been no sense in waking Lee up if we were go­ ing to promptly occupy the showers. Unfortunately, there was a slight problem. Little to our knowledge, there was oniv one "clean" towel in u.c place ("clean" meaning that there were fewer black spots on it than Continued Ban some of the others) and I had been using it to wipe my face after washing 1 e night before and that morning so, naturally, I claimed it. I turned on the water. There was a rap on the door f| was Will and he wanted to know where I found a towel. As luck would have it, neither o us had thu. ght in the least about bringing a towel. I offered Will another towel that was in the bathroom that I had first considered using. I told Will that it had a funky design on it. Will pointed out that the design was something dark brown that was stained on it. Not exactly something that you wanted to come into close intimate contact with. I looked around some more. There were two other towels stuck on the floor but they were stiff, hard and had hairs sticking on them. Hygiene—a word that did not in anyway associate itself with this apart,, nt. Will told me to go ahead and use it and that he would find something. I began to feel bad about this jump on the towel because, after all, I wasn't going into the studio. I was there to goof off. I told him that I wouldn't be washing my hair (it was sticking out all over creation rather nicely already) and that I would only use one side of the towel on my body and then give it to him to use the other side. He again said not to worry about it so I began to ready my water again. There was another knock at the door. It was Will again. He was having trou­ ble with the faucet. There was no trace of hot water. Having fiddled around with my own faucet for a while I immediately knew what he needed to do. You had to turn the thing until it looked broken and was fully upside down in order to get results. I went over to Will's shower and personally showed him since I was kind of proud of myself for figur­ ing it out. After this fiasco, Will went to wake Lee up while I was getting dressed in the other room. Urban Edge play at H'Appys tonight The group Urban Edge will be play­ ing tonight at H'Appy's. Tickets are $2, and doors open at 8:30. Ranger Rick and the Lost Guides will open for Urban Edge starting at 9 p.m. Urban Edge consists of Tom Shaw (guitar and voice), Jerry Chapman (bass guitar and voice), Jerry Finley (the beat, battery and voice), and Jason Buss (keys and voice), with all members sharing the lead vocal duties. Tom, Jerry and Jerry have been playing together since December of 1984, recently adding Jason's keyboard talents. One of their main advantages is the versatility of their song selection, ranging from 60's rock to Top 40 to "college classics." Urban Edge also puts out quite a bit of energy while performing, mak­ ing them not only great to listen to, but also to watch. Their originals are often high points, having been com­ pared in sound to The Romantics, The Who, and REM, among others. P "Appalachian ~%An Continued from Page 6 are the only ones we need," Gross added. "That's racist in practice." Nachbar agrees Bloom's arguments smack of racism and sexism, but points out that it's unintentional. His worship of Plato, Shakespeare and Beethoven, Nachbar said, reflects a "white, male-dominated culture," not a conscious effort to exclude female and non-white male artists and philosophers. Although Bloom decries popular culture as brain candy, Gross says rock, popular movies and other media have value as culture and art. "Rock and roll, like Dickens, has an appeal to the masses, but it can also engage the soul on very important issues. Gross added, citing songs such as analyze them in such terms, like com­ "The River," "My Father's House," paring oranges and apples." Gross, and "Darkness on the Edge of however, predicts Bob Dylan and the Town." "That line from 'The River,' movie Casablanca will be viewed 'Is a Dream a lie if it don't come reverentially by future generations. true,' has direct connections to the work of Langston Hughes and Many of Bloom's icons, such as Ecclesiastes," Gross asserted.

The AFC vs. the NFC. The Washington Redskins vs the Denver Broncos. Superbowl XXII, the end of the 1987-88 football season I can't wait! As an avid Miami Dolphins fan, deciding who 1 want to win is like deciding whether I want to break my left leg or my right. While I have great respect for |both teams, I can't like either of them. I will, for example, agree that the Redskins have the best defense in the NFL, but ever since the days of "pretty boy," "I-will-come-back" Joe Theisman, I have detested the Skins. Besides, Miami spanked the Skins this year, and the Dolphins sure weren't a powerhouse. That fact makes me doubt whether the Skins can beat a great offensive team like the Broncos. [Denver, on the other hand, has an undoubtly explosive offensive John ay seems to have perfected his touch and has had an incredible perfor­ mance thus far in the playoffs. But wait, I bet on the Broncos last year and the New York Giants proceeded to maul them in Superbowl XXI. I'd probably be a fool to bet on them again this year for fear that Elway might choke and the Skins will trounce them all over again. r Since I don't like either team, my decision comes down to choosing the NFC vs. AFC. As a big AFC fan, I have forced myself to go AFC over the NFC every year that I can remember the Superbowl being played. Since I want to stay consistent, I m going to cheer for the Broncos to win. You'd think with such a toss-up decision that the Superbowl wouldn't be such a big deal. Well, that't just not true. I look forward to the Superbowl just like I do the NBA and NCAA basketball playoffs, the World Series, and the end of every grueling semester. The sheer excitement of big winners and big losers, those who have gone the distance, and those with something to prove brings any football fan around the television on ^uperbowl Sunday. My plans for the big day have already been made—everything from time and place to attire and beverage. Yes, I'm set. I've planned my lines for the downfall of the Skins, and I've prepared myself to roll with the punches in the event Elway and the Broncos don't come through. Another reason I favo,r the boys in orange and blue is that Redskins fans are the worst tn» the world. They are all-almost the same. They wear Redskin toboggans in the snow and post big, tacky billboards in their yards that sav Go Skins!" all season long. Skins fans are also the most fun to harsh on when their team loses. They take the loss so hard. You have to admire their devotion, they are not fair weather tans. When you cheer for a team against them though, they are loud obnoxious, and unable to think rationally. I'm going to have a hay-day if the Skins lose! For any ASU student who is still undecided about which team to cheer for on Sunday, I have another bit of information which may help you decide on the Broncos. One of our very own ASU students was a replacement player on the Denver team during the football strike. Pretty exciting, huh? Whoever you decide to cheer for on Sunday, 1 hope you feel the surge of en­ thusiasm and excitement that football fans all over the world and especially in the United States feel on the "big day." I know I'm excited. Go Broncos! Athlete of thu HI Wpa Vandenberg sets a new school record Kodak Invatational By BILL ZADEITS Appalachian Staff Writer Congratulations to The Appalachian Athlete of the Week, Pete Vandenberg. Vandenberg was selected after his performance last weekend at the Eastman-Kodak Invitational held in Johnson City, Tenn. As has been the case in most of the past games, Tom Apke's half time locker room pep talk brought the Mountaineers out onto the hardwood with fire in their eyes. Westerm controlled the tip and drew first blood on a foul shot by Bennie Goettie. The Catamounts leading scorer, Goettie tossed in 23 points and hauled in eleven rebounds to keep the game close. The Apps rode the scoring of Ben Miller to a 19-9 lead with 13:13 left in the first half. Miller, a 6-6 sophomore forward, scored a career-high 22 points in the contest to up his season average to 10.5 points per game. Over the last three games, Miller has picked up his scoring, averaging 17 points per game. The first half saw the Mountaineers surge to an early 10 point lead only to have WCU come back strong. With 3:07 remaining in the first half, ASU's Sam Gibson committed his third foul, putting Andre Gault on the line. Gault converted on both, making the score 31-27 in favor of the Cata­ mounts. Rodney Peel of ASU hit a three-pointer before the half to draw the Apps within one before Western's Kenny Brown converted on a lay-up to make the halftime score 33-30 WCU.

With the score knotted at 63, the Catamounts captured the lead on a basket in the lane by Goettie. Apke called for a time-out to talk to his players. Back on the floor, Kemp Phillips travelled and turned the basketball back over to the Cata­ mounts with only :28 seconds re­ maining in the game. Phillips had the opportunity to make his mistake all obsolete and become the hero of the game in less than 16 seconds. When Western's Kenny Brown committed a foul in the back court, ASU got the ball back. Phillips then brought the ball down the court and drilled a 20-foot, threepoint shot with only seconds remain­ ing. Following a time-out by WCU's Head Coach Steve Cottrell, Kenny Brown drove into the lane only to have his last desperation shot come up short. The Apps won the game with a narrow, one-point victory. The win gives the Mountaineers three wins in the Southern Con­ ference, more than they achieved all of last year. The Apps hope to con­ tinue their three-game streak on Thursday at home against ETSU. Kodak, Vandenberg said that the over-sized track contributed to his good finishes. "The track conditions were as good as could be expected. The fact that it was a six lap per mile track rather than an eight or nine lap per mile track really helped," he said. "The track conditions were as good as could be expected.

It is a shame that this incident occurred. It is also a shame that Greek organizations as a whole have suffered by association with this tragedy. Assistant Director of the Student Development Center Dino DiBernardi said Greeks are exercising greater risk management skills. ID's are being checked more caefully to ensure no one under 21 drinks. Also, Greek organizations are attempting to create new activities so that alcohol is not the main focus of events. One of the biggest problems facing Greek organizations nationwide is shortage of liability insurance. In the national Association of Insurance Commissioners list of the 30 Top Liability Risks, fraternities and sororities rank number 6 after Hazardous Waste Disposal Companies. Five fraternities were unable to receive liability insurance and developed their own insurance system. Phi Delta Theta, Phi Kappa Psi, Kappa Sigma, Lqmbda Chi Alpha and Beta Theta Pi joined forces to create their own Risk Management Guidelines. The guidelines cover such areas as fire prevention, accident investigation, social functions and alcohol. Regardless of the organization or individual sponsoring a party, risk management should be exercised. Any large party which is not careful­ ly controlled could lead to an occurrence similar to the July 11 incident. All students or organizations hosting parties should make conscien­ tious efforts to guarantee safety for their guests. Rock concert audiences calmer than By MICHAEL R. COOKE Appalachian Columnist I would classify myself as a veteran of rock concert-going. In fact, I can­ not even recall all the bands I have seen. Friends of mine usually want to know what has changed about con­ certs in the last nine years. There are many changes I have noticed, some of which I'll make note of here. My first show was in 1979 (Aerosmith and Ted Nugent) and one of the first things 1 enjoyed was observing the people around me at a concert. I confess the only thing I watched for at the first few were cute girls, as that was my preeminent obsession—come to thinlc of it, it probably still is! I really started hit­ ting my stride about the time my friends and I began getting drivers' licenses. It seemed I was in the Charlotte Coliseum, Johnson City's Freedom Hall, or the Asheville Civic concerts were an escape from a reality Center every weekend. I think I saw that was dreary and held little promise most all of the hot rock acts of the for many. It was an exciting early 1980's. atmosphere to be in—perhaps too During this time most of the folks I exciting at times, but still thrilling. went to shows with were overindulg­ dver the last three years, however, ing in one substance or another, and conservatism has crept into the as a result there were problems.

There was practically no enforcement There were also practically no or rules against smoking (regular or inebriated people at this concert—less homegrown), fighting, passing bot­ than I'd ever seen. Some young tles, throwing firecrackers or toilet fellows were "play acting" to get paper at the stage, et. al. Concerts attention, but all in all the crowd was were an adventure each time, as sober and well-behaved. There were dangerous as they were fun. There no fights, no confrontations with was an element of rebellion, security, and very little rulebreaking escapism, almost anarchy at those (except enough regular cigarettes to concerts. Sometimes the band seemed make my coat smell to this day), I secondary to the party.

They were mort mature than I was at their age, not succumbing to peer pressure in tin form of offered drinks oi smokes—even when they didt know I was watching. One of them even refused an open beer by expressing! fear of "getting AIDS from it."That drove home how much things bad changed. I cannot say whether things are fa damentally different.

I'm sure it was at least one million degrees below zero today. Small fibers from my scarf are now permanently frozen to my chin, and I have frostbite of the eyeballs. I feel every prospective ASU student should be given a brochure detailing how to survive Antarctic weather conditions, simply as a warning, so they'll know what they're in for before they arrive with only hi-tops and a band jacket for winter fashion. Seriously, though, I do hate winter. I long for the days of beach blankets and jam boxes, or even for the days of being able to recognize my friends without de-scarfing/muffing/ jacketing to be able to distinguish one body part from another. I'm afraid of getting some hideous disease for lack 1 of exposure to actual sunlight. I NEED my vitamin D. I WANT my vitamin D. I DEMAND my vitamin D.

Fraternity bids go out tommorrow for rushes By JON JIMISON Appalachian Slaff Writer their options. After formal rush each frater­ nity can set their own schedule of events. "This way, people can work objectively towards each fraternity," Kappa Alpha Rush Councilman Jimmy Thomas said. Fall rush generally has a greater number of people; however, this semester has seen an increase in the spring rush for some fraternities. ASU Greek fraternities have begun their Spring Rush. This is the process by which male students try to receive a membership bid into a fraternity. The formal rush season officially began January 12 and bids go out at noon, January 27. When a rush season begins fraternities are "Fall rush is always bigger than spring assigned a night to hold their first rush rush," Thomas said. "But this year is big party. Therefore, individuals interested in for our spring rush." more than one organization can investigate This year the number of students at the formal rush was almost double that of last year's spring rush, according to Thomas. After bids are given out, each fraternity gives the individual 24 to 48 hours to accept or deny the bid. After one accepts the bid he will continue as a pledge for a certain amount of time which is determined by the individual fraternities. While the majority of fraternities always hold a spring rush, it varies with sororities. "We vote on it," said Programs Head for Chi Omega Sorority Naomi Joselson. "Our sorority did not vote to have spring rush this year." "It (spring rush) takes a lot of time to put together," Joselson added. "It's more com­ pact than a fall rush." In the past some sororities have held a rush in the spring. They have a formula which takes into account the number of graduating Seniors in their organization and quota numbers set by Panhellenic Council in charge of campus sororities. Greek organizations stress leadership, community service, scholarship and sharing common goals and experiences. Members of Greek fraternities often become life-long friends.

Margaret Clancy, as the Student Development and Leadership Instructor, accomplishes a great deal toward the bettering of the areas she in­ structs. Since Christmas vacation Clancy has been working with the Black Leadership Advancement class, which started with the help of Director of Minority Affairs, Willie Fleming. Fleming, Direc­ tor of Student Development, Lee McCaskey, and Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Dr. David Mclntire put the class together with Clancy doing the fine tuning. "It's real exciting. We got a tremendous response from the students with a surprising 31 enrolled this semester," Clancy said. She plans on speaking to the class on stress management in the near future. Clancy feels more leadership courses are not needed at this time, since the classes now available offer the students what they need. Clancy says unique leadership needs "are pretty much met here at Appalachian." Clancy has plans for two workshops, the Black Leadership workshop and the Leadership Development workshop. Clancy will facilitate the planning for the Black Leadership Workshop, allowing the Black Leadership Advancement class to do the major planning as it is a requirement for the course. The tentative date for the Leadership Develop­ ment workshop is Saturday, April 23, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Based on the results of a needsassessment survey given to club presidents last semester by Kathryn Knight, Clancy planned the Leadership Development workshop to fill the needs of leadership-oriented students. "We're going to have some guest speakers come in and we're going to have some outdoor programs come in a n d do some group interaction p r o g r a m s c o m e i n and d o s o m e g r o u p i n t e r a c t i o n courses. It's going to be a real good opportunity for any student, but especially targeted to poten­ tial leaders and current leaders to develop some more leadership skills," Clancy said. Clancy feels the workshop will promote com­ munication, trust and will be an effective tool for developing skills in leadership. The Leadership Development workshop will be useful in helping students who otherwise would not have time to attend leadership meetings, in particular those students involved in one or more of the 102 registered organizations on campus wanting leadership skills. Clancy will meet with the club's Presidents Council February 3 to discuss upcoming projects, and the workshop in depth. "I find that Appalachian is really unique in their concern for clubs and organizations. 1 haven't found that at other schools that 1 have been either attending or working at, so this is real exciting for me. I feel like I'm working with the elite of the campus," Clancy said. The workshop is the biggest goal for Clancy this semester since the need for leadership develop­ ment is so great. "It's going to be a real good workshop, and I hope the turnout is as good as I hope it will be," Clancy said. Underway is Clancy's handbook for faculty group advisors, which will update the one current­ ly in use. The handbook will benefit any advisor in a group situation, like freshman orientation, by giving insighful tips on group behavior and leadership skills. "I'm absolutely delighted to be here and, the more I do, the more I like my job," Clancy said, "I probably have one of the best jobs on campus, I really believe that."

He is also the author of the book Bloods, an oral history of the Vietnam war which he completed after covering the integration of the war for Time magazine. lobbying in Washington and were the first veterans to have to raise their own National memorial. "The second factor was our own fear," Terry said. "The American people were asking themselves if this could occur again 4in other parts of the world such as Lebanon or Nicaragua." The distancing that comes with the lapse of time was another factor he mentioned. "This war had divided families and had torn our nation apart," he said. Terry said Hollywood's contribution to the war was perhaps the most dynamic fac­ tor in opening Americans' eyes to the con­ flict. "They produced a spade of films before us and now there is even a TV series on the Vietnam War," Terry said. Among those mentioned were the Chuck Norris production and the Rambo selec­ tions. He labeled them as "comic book depictions of war." Terry said he feared what young people , °r ^ Dr. George Miles of the A.S.U. chemistry department has received the Long Leaf Pine award, one of the highest awards given by the North Carolina Governor's Office, for his work in the community. Chancellor Thomas presented the award December 7 during the meeting of the university Faculty Senate. The award is presented to an individual recognized for service and contribution to a North Carolina community who has shown extra efforts in career or extracurricular positions and who has a history of many years of service to career and social organizations. "Only a reward for bravery rates higher,"Chancellor Thomas told Miles during the presentation. Most of Mile's work in the community involves the elderly. Many are people with no family or who are simply lonely and need companionship or someone to talk to. Many will talk more easily to someone outside their families because of a fear that if they complain to relatives about their problems they will be sent to a home. He runs errands for them such as going to the grocery store or to the bank. His relations with these people have formed over time and his frequent visits began gradually with members of his church. At the First Baptist Church of Boone, Dr. Miles teaches a Sunday school class to elderly ladies and delivers recordings of the morning ministry to shut-ins. One of his activities is baking birthday cakes. "One year I baked one hundred and fifty!" he said. He has a list of regular recipients but he adds some from year to year. They go to elderly as well as his friends. Most of his visits are to people living on their own in town, although occasionally he visits acquaintances living in the nursing home. His visits are a great pleasure and mean a great deal not only to him but to the elderly as well. As Dr. Miles comments about young and old alike, "Happiness is really a state of mind!"

Assault cases may range from simple assault and assault and ttery, to assault on a female and a s s a u l t w i t h a deadly weapon. Trying to analyze this phenomenon is difficult because there are so many possible reasons for this upswing of violence. For instance, are more peo­ ple actually committing acts of violence or are more people getting written up? Are most of these violent acts being triggered by alcohol or is tnere an increase of tension on the A5>u campus? ,T,he ,only explanation that I feel minTofyth°mf0,rtable in givin* AST i 6 V10lent acts U are- ,n fact, is ^at committed at alcohol related. The problem with this assumption, owever, is that we now have to answer questions about the alcohol problem such as: are students drink­ ing more, or are they getting referred more frequently because of the new, strict state alcohol policy? Whatever the answer to these ques­ tions may be, the precedent sanctions for such violations of student law re­ main as such: Assault on a female—6 months specific probation Assault and Battery—12 months general probation Assault—8 months general proba­ tion And, although the sanction for a single alcohol violation remains at 3 months general probation, second and third offense violators face much more severe sanctions. Often times 1 become frustrated when I review cases of violence for not only does the victim suffer both physically and emotionally, but unless the defendent learns from his/her mistake, the crime may be committed again and another unsuspecting per­ son may be injured. Hopefully, for the safety and wellbeing of the entire student body, this surge of violence will be stopped in the upcoming months. Questions or comments? Please call Milk crate stealing is a crime HARRISBURG, PA (CPS)—The milk industry has decided to get tough with students who use stolen milk crates as bookshelves, record racks and laundry baskets. As of this term, crate crooks in Pennsylvania can get up to 90 days in jail or a $300 fine if caught using stolen boxes. Milk crate thefts and crackdowns are not limited to Pennsylvania. The California Coalition for Milk Case Recovery brings back about 4,000 crates a month. In recent years milk companies and police have conducted roundups at Iowa State, North Carolina State, and the universities of Nebraska, Oklahoma, among others. But Pennsylvania's law which went into effect December 6 reportedly is the first to single out crate thieves for special punishment. People, mostly students, steal about $100 million worth of milk crates a year, Dawn Brydon of the Milk industry Foundation in Washington, D.C., said. To cut their losses, the Penn­ sylvania Association of Milk Dealers persuaded the state legislature to make it a crime to steal and possess the milk crates. The association already has spent $40,000 to publicize the new law, a drop in the bucket compared with the $2 million skimmed from Pennsyl­ vania dairy profits by crate crooks. The education effort, spokesman Earl Fink said, is aimed primarily at col­ lege students, and at least some ap­ pear to be paying attention. Students at Penn State took advan­ tage of an amnesty period to deposit more than 160 milk crates near a dorm office. The crates later were returned to their rightful owners by university police and local dairy employees. Clarion University of Pennsylvania students returned more than 1,500 during an amnesty period. At nearby Edinboro University, a rumor that the "milk crate police" were coming spurred students to return more than 100 crates. Individual campus efforts could never be so successful without the force of a new law behind them, Brydon said. She added that the local crackdowns in other states were noble but often don't work because retailers, restaurants, food service managers and even dairies themselves treat the cases carelessly, leaving them outside for the picking. Getting others to take the industry's frustration seriously has been hard. "I once walked into a police station to file a complaint on someone using milk crates," the coordinator of the California milk crate posse Michael Massey said, "and they were using them to file police records." 262-2102. ¥>u're smart enough to calculate the size ofa Hydrogen atom.

"There ought to be a law against holding up traffic like this " "Get off the *@#!$% road!!" This past Saturday I was uttering these thoughts as well as other more choice ones full force when Sean and I got behind a truck on Highway 105 going towards Linville. With fingers itching for the boulders, I was in no mood to wait forsome Pokey> °'d truck. Later, thinking back, I was mortified. 1 had been reduced to one of those who gripe and groan about trucks because I lacked patience. I imagine most of those griping do too Being the son of a truck driver, I understand why trucks drag along sometimes. After all, 80,000 pounds is a lot of weight to be pulling, especially • i the mountains. Anyway, I get tired of hearing people whine about a truck causing them any inconvenience (like they never inconvenience a truck). So let's take a look at the other side of the coin. Does anybody ever stop to think how the clothes in the stores get there? What about groceries? It sure wasn't done by any airplane or train. An airport or train tracks can t run to every store. I would venture to say that just about every consumer product has been inside a truck at one time or another. Trucks tearing up the roads is another complaint that gets me. Highways are supposed to be built to withstand 200,000 pound vehicles for military pur­ poses. That is nearly twice the weight of most tractor-trailers. If you want to place blame, blame it on the right people—the contractors. Close to $5000 in taxes are paid each year to allow one truck use of the roads. A lot less cars would be on the road if they had to do the same We've got a way to stop these bullies of the road though. It wouldn't take us motorists long to put them out of business. We'll just boycott the trucking companies. In other words, let's just not buy anything that is hauled by a truck. Great idea, huh? We'll be free of trucks and have all the roads to ourselves. I've started my protest but, gosh, I sure am getting hungry.

After ticket sales break even, 85 percent of all profits go directly to the artist! That's a lot of morrocas, especially for major artists. Students get top priority with ticket sales because their money has paid for the concert. A.P.P.S. expects to sell 300 tickets. Two hundred extras have been printed for an area with an obstructed view in case of a sell-out for those fans who would still be anx­ ious to see the show, even at the sacrifice of some of the view of the stage. All arrangement for the concert have been made through a University organization. Student Programs doesn't receive any profit unless they sell out at student cost. Why do they go through all the trouble? The answer to that is simple: For You, the student! The programs of A.P.P.S. are solely for the morale and enjoyment of the students. The volunteers at A.P.P.S. work hard for your enjoyment, and the best way to show your appreciation would be to take advantage of their efforts.

WASU vital to campus communication By ANDREA ANDERSON Appalachian Staff Writer The postman is not the only person who works in the snow. Many dedicated students work to keep 91 Rock WASU, on the air. There are only ten paid staff members at the station, located on the third floor of Wey Hall. The rest work for credit or as volunteers.

Inter-Varsity introduces Kenya to student By RICH HUNTER Special to The Appalachian Editor's Note: The following is the first installment of a series about ASU student Rich Hunter's travels to Africa. The Appalachian hopes to open some eyes on life in another country. Appalachian Photo by Kolfh Jonos DanceWorks offers ballet alternative This summer I had the opportunity to go to a country that was quite dif­ ferent from my own:, the country was Kenya, East Africa. The trip was sponsored by InterVarsity Christian Fellowship, an inter-denominational Christian group that meets on campus. They send out a few volunteer missionaries each summer. I applied during the fall of '86 and was accepted for work in Kenya, my first preference of a coun­ try. The next step was getting a sup­ port letter written and typed that would be sent out to different family members, my friends, some friends of my family, and my church. After this was sent out, my support money started coming in. It reallv reassured me that God waiuiu ine to go and serve as well as learn and grow from the people in this different culture. During this time, two other Appalachian students and I were go­ ing through three training weekends (normally four, but one was snowed out) held at a camp outside of Raleigh. During these training weekends we learned about things such as: why should we go to another country to share God's love; self image, and accepting ourself with our failures knowing that God accepts us and loves us the way we are and wants to change us; learning about ourself and our own culture and how it may differ from another culture; and finally, how to deal with going into another culture and the various strug­ gles we would have while there and even returning home. After the training was finished and school was out, the day soon arrived (June 1) when I was driving to the Charlotte airport to fly to New York where I would be staying at the African Inland Mission headquarters for a short orientation. I did not think that leaving my Mom and Dad for the summer would be that sad; but know­ ing there was a slight possibility of something happening and my not see­ ing them again and seeing my Dad cry as I boarded the plane brought sadness upon me. I would be traveling nearly 11,000 miles away by myself and I did not know what was ahead of "I did not think that leaving my Mom and Dad for the summer would be that sad; but knowing there was a slight possibility of something happening and my not seeing them again and seeing my Dad cry as I boarded the plane brought sadness upon me."

To the few lucky individuals who did go to see Jim Thackery and the Assassins play the blues last Thurs­ day, you know it doesn't get any bet­ ter than that. First, a little background. A number of years ago, there was a band called the Nighthawks, which featured a man named Jim Thackery on the guitar. They were possibly the best, certainly the best known of the blues outfits playing in the northeast. After much success, including a number of albums with such older blues greats as Pinetop Perkins, Thackery split from the Nighthawks to join the Assassins. The Assassins have since recorded three albums and toured extensively. They appeared at the Pub last semester and 120 blues fans showed up for a stunning display of guitar pyrotechnics and musical sensitivity, staggering solos and incredible arrangements. But perhaps I had bet­ ter move on to the recent show before I run out of superlatives. The show got off to a late start, as first the equipment truck, then bassist Wade Matthews' plane, was delayed. Thackery warmed up the crowd (and stalled for time) with a solo or two on slide guitar. Later, the band joined . .

The lamb and mushrooms are marinated in red wine, tamari, garlic, mint, and greens. It was tender but much more aromatic than the chicken because of the wine and tamari in the sauce.

Senor Cefiro, of course, owned Anna's dream: a spacious estate, a Spanish villa, a flourishing garden, I didn't mean to surprise you Anna. Do vou like my garden," he asked. "It's lovely," she said. "Do you know why this is called Zephyr Castle?" , Anna took her eyes from the statue in the garden and looked carefully at her brother-in-law. "It is because the wind blows so fiercely at night that it overturns small wooden buildings, picks up animals, and even Constantine once toppled over to the ground." everything. Now Anna was here, standing on the balcony of her room, looking down into the garden where a life-size bronze figure temporarily caught her unbelieving eye. Jorge stepped out onto the balcony beside hers, and Anna turned, startled. "It is because the wind blows so fiercely at night that it overturns small wooden buildings, picks up animals, and even Constantine once toppled over to the ground." "Constantine?" she wondered aloud. "The figurine you have been gazing at," he replied. "The base was not always of bronze, and the weather weakened it. I awoke one night to a resounding clatter! I found our friend lying in the fountain. Quite peaceful he looked," Jorge laughed. Anna smiled wanly, but his reference to "our friend" as a living object made her uneasy. She shrugged away her concern in a passing breeze and said: "I'll meet you downstairs. I'd like to freshen up before dinner." Jorge nodded in concession and turned away. Anna gave a final glance over her shoulder to Constantine before going to the large basin of water sitting on the bureau beneath the mirror. She washed her face and forearms lackadaisically; the heat had drained her so. Looking up into the mirror which was angled sharply into the wall, Anna saw the bronzed Constantine staring back at her. "I'm going to dinner now, thank you," she said to the mirror. At dinner Anna found herself star­ ing deeply into the castillian eyes of the second half of her dream. Jorge and Lynn discussed various household affairs and occasionally Jorge asked her opinion, but Anna could only drop her gaze quickly and mumble a faint reply. Lynn thinks I should get rid of Constantine, Anna. She is convinced he is an eyesore," Jorge said. "No!" said Anna, surprised at her adamant reply. "I mean he seems to belong here," she explained quickly. "My words exactly," said Jorge enthusiastically. He continued chat­ ting with Lynn while Anna tried to swallow her jealousy with a cup of strong coffee. After dinner Lynn approached her sister. "Is everything all right, Anna?" she asked. "I'm still surprised at your sudden announcement. I find this place too beautiful, too real," Anna said. "I know what you mean," replied Lynn. "And isn't Jorge an absolute find?" Anna sighed in relief. Lynn was too wrapped up in herself to see Anna's own half-wish. She quickly excused herself from Lynn and went to her rdom. There she greeted Constantine cheerfully and began to dress for bed. The buttons on the back of that par­ ticular dress were so damned difficult to undo. She finally undid them after much acrobatic contortion, and turned suddenly towards the mirror. "Sorry Constantine old friend," she said and covered the mirror with a light quilt. Then she put on a light summer gown for sleeping and took back her quilt. "I'm still surprised at your sudden announcement. I find this place too beautiful, too real," Anna said. "Goodnight," she said to no one and climbed into bed. Constantine did not reply. Anna slept fitfully. Strange dreams confronted and teased her all night. When she heard a faint tapping at her door she waited in the darkness quiet­ ly, trying to decide if that, too, was Spring Break "88 BAHAMA BOUND 'W • ROUND TRIP AIR/BOATFARE FROM MIAMI OR FT LAUDERDALE • ROUND TRIP TRANSFERS TOVOUR HOTEL • BEACH OR NEAR BEACH ACCOMMODATIONS • ALL TAXES, TIPS & GRATUITIES /LODGING • COMPLIMENTARY DRINKS & DISCOUNTSAT BAHAMAS FINEST RESTAURANTS • FREE 100% COTTON T-SHIRTS • FREE COCKTAIL PARTIESNIGHTLY • FREE ADMISSION INTOEXCITING NIGHTCLUBS • FREE ADMISSION INTOGREAT LOCAL SHOWS • FREE SCUBA AND SNORKLINGLESSONS • 40% OFF ON DIVES (INCLUDES EQUIPMENT) • AND MUCH.

The wind was rattling at the house, rapping the window panes and knocking about the shutters as Jorge said it would, when suddenly her door flew open in a gust of air, revealing a man standing in her door­ way, shadowy and indiscernible. "Is that you Jorge?" she whispered. "Do not speak," he said and crept over to her in the obscurity of her room. He kissed her briefly and she began to respond, but Lynn entered, so he slipped out of the bed quickly, disappearing from her arms. "Anna," said Lynn sleepily. "I heard your door gush open. I'm sorry we didn't warn you about it earlier. This room is on the south side of the house. We can easily move you to another room in the morning."

Now, the question of the number one conference in the land is a real one which is no longer only asked by the disgruntled fans of Big Ten or Southeastern teams. The jaunty crown that the ACC wore for so long and with such pride has been usurped. The mid 80's saw a power vacuum develop in college basketball. The hegemony of the ACC was broken and a new king was crowned. Long live the Big East. The infancy of the Big East saw the arrival of the dominant force of the 80's at Georgetown. Patrick Ewing guarded the lane of the Capital Center for four years as if he were protecting his young. With Ewing in the middle and under the tutelage of John Thompson, the Hoyas rattled off four straight NCAA Tournament appearances, one National Championship, and two other Final Four berths. Unrivaled for sustained excellence in the 80's, the Georgetown Hoyas are the team of the decade. Since 1982, Syracuse, Georgetown, St. John's, Providence, and Villanova have all made appearances in the Final Four. In 1985, the Big East had the dream game—Villanova versus Georgetown for the National Championship. The number of teams placed in post-season play is not the best indicator of conference strength, but performance in post-season play is. The regular season is the proving ground that separates the contenders from the pretenders. No one can expect any conference champion, in this age of .parity, to escape undefeated. However, fans can expect their champion to carry the conference banner at least into the round of eight. The Big East wins and wins big. The ACC fans don't like it. Too many high school recruits are bypassing Carolina and Duke and heading for the snowbelt. Already this year, the two highest touted high schoolers in the coun­ try have signed with Big East teams. Alonzo Mourning of Chesapeake, Virginia and Billy Owens of Carlisle, Pennsylvania are going to Georgetown and Syracuse, respectively. The constant influx of talent is going to keep the Big East on top. As with most sports, the winners are labeled by the losers. To fans of other conferences, the Big East has no class. Writers and television announcers decry the Big East for its physical nature and sometimes violent confronta­ tions. Perhaps they don't understand that by allowing more contact in league play, the Big East has a measurable advantage over the rest of the NCAA in postseason play. The pressure of the NCAA Tournament is felt not only by the players and coaches, but also by the officials. The game officials are loath to call touch fouls and have a tendency to "let them play." Big East teams have been condi­ tioned by March to the rigors of tournament ball; they love the physical game Class is an elusive attribute. Is class in college basketball defined as graduating players, teaching them about life, and, along the way, winning a few games? Yes. John Thompson accomplishes all of these and yet some peo­ ple still say Georgetown has no class. Of course, these same people prostrate themselves in front of Indiana's program and genuflect before Bobby Knight and his travelling histrionics show. So this March in Kansas City, don't be too upset if the usual complement of Big East teams so dominate the NCAA's that they have more than one team in the Final Four. The ACC tradition is not in jeopardy because of the Big East; it has already been stolen. Ronnie Christian pressed on defense, drawing to within 76-61. The Lady Apps reloaded their offensive weapons for the final few minutes and blew away the Lady Bucs. The intensity of the game against ETSU did not carry over to Saturday afternoon against the UT-C Lady Mocs. After back-to-back great games, the Lady Mountaineers finally stumbled to a 63-67 loss. The Lady Mountaineers welcomed the East Tennessee State Lady Buc­ caneers into Varsity Gymnasium last Wednesday for game 150 in the Lady Apps tenure in Boone. A stifling defense and a quick open court game led ASU to a 91-71 victory. From tip-off to the final buzzer, the Lady Mountaineers executed almost flawlessly on both ends of the court. Debbie Swicegood, a junior Guard, dominated the first 10 minutes of the game with her shooting. Scoring six Beyond any doubt, the of the first 10 ASU points, Swicegood Lady Mountaineers showed led the Lady Apps to an early 12-3 they have the ability to lead.

When play resumed, Davidson's Maurice Gray fouled Phillips to stop the game clock at :29. Phillips sank both ends of the one-and-one to again put ASU up by five.

The loss drops ASU to 14-3 overall, 3-1 in the conference. UT-C's win gives them sole posses­ sion of first place in the Southern Conference. If the second half of the game with UT-C was any indication, the Lady Cats of Western Carolina are in for a well played game and a fired up ASU squad on Wednesday night. The Lady Mocs travel to Boone on February 20. The Lady Apps are looking forward to a rematch on their home floor.

This estimated participation is based on the 2,000 students from 250 schools that competed in *87 in Daytona Beach alone. The addition of Corpus Christi as a mid-west venue offers even more colleges the chance to "go f°r the g°,d " This year, as has taken place in the first two years 0f the FESTIVAL, will see each sports' weekly winners brought together in the fall in one place to determine our National Champion. Last year the FESTIVAL brought back over 400 students, all expenses paid, to Daytona Beach. This event, which drew national publicity, was covered in an hour-and-a-half ESPN Thanksgiving Day special! The FESTIVAL is designed for the intramural college student. Any nonvarsity, non-scholarship, full-time student is eligible to play. The excite­ ment of participating is evident in comments from past contestants such as University of Wisconsin, Platteviile, Rubgy Club member Phil Whal who states, "I feel privileged to have participated in the NCSF." Another comment typical of those we hear comes from Western Kentucky Basketball player, Wayne Chiles, who writes, "We want to say thanks again for a great spring break and the opportunity to come back in the fall." Mate W. Kempter, a member of the University of Missouri Softball team, tells us, "We all think the tour­ nament is a great idea for college students, as well as, the community and its sponsors." The FESTIVAL is in many ways similar to the Olympics, relying heavi­ ly upon corporate dollars to stage a successful event. These national spon­ sors see the FESTIVAL as the rapidly emerging National Championship in the arena of college sports. The FESTIVAL'S refusal to accept alcohol and tobacco dollars has elped to reaffirm its commitment of what college athletics is all about, good clean fun. As a service to competing athletes and their fans, the FESTIVAL is offering reduced rate travel packages. These packages include lodging at beach front hotels that also serve as host hotels fof specific events. Com­ plementary housing is provided to all on-campus representatives. The comments of Florida's Gover­ nor, Bob Martinez, probably best describe what the FESTIVAL is all about, when he states, "The Sports Festival is providing a great service to our collegiate tourists and, therefore, providing them the opportunity to travel home with a positive experience and lasting memories," Continued from Page 8 three-point shot," Apke said. Kemp then stepped into the gap and was able to get the ball inside. The team realized that a defense cannot collapse and pressure at the same time." Jerry Holmes was cited by Apke for his second-half play. Jerry is a big, rugged, physical player. He played well and so we decided to let him go until he made his fifth foul. He hit some mighty big free throws when the margin was still close," Apke said. Davidson's head coach Bobby Hussey attributed the Wildcat's loss to poor shooting. "We didn't shoot well enough to win and our shot selection was not good at all " he stated. In addition, Hussey claimed that the physical play by Holmes vretHhe Wildcats' inside game. "He played well if you consider that he 'butchered' our boys on the inside all night long," he said. ASU goes on the road to Cullowhee, N.C. for their next con­ ference bout to take on the Western Carolina Catamounts.

Two tough conference matches face Mance next against VMI and UT-C. "Right now we have to closelv match one or both of these teams. We must have a tremendous effort from everyone," he added. As far as the rest of the season is concerned—Davidson, the Citadel, and the rest of the Southern Con­ ference—there seems to be light at the end of the tunnel. The season will end on March 5 with the Southern Con­ ference Tournament. Even if the hard work does not prove to have an im­ mediate result like a winning record, the team's high expectations surely hold a bright future in store for them.

WHAT EVIL EMPIRE PLANS TO USE AMERICAS HIGHWAYS TO SPREAD DEADLY RADIATION? A. WiTh FRieNPS Like THese.. Beginning to define terrorism! Terrorism not moral relativist It has been a popular cliche to say that "One man's terrorist is another man's freedom-fighter." When the latest bit of general bloodletting going on in the world flashes across our television screens, this cliche is often said in a tone of flippant indifference by those claim­ ing to be morally agnostic. Of course, when someone shows the least bit of intestinal fortitude by fighting against the world's carnage, the same moral agnostics say this cliche in the tone of a platitude with all the fervor of a rabid pit-bull fed on gunpowder and foaming at the mouth. The imagery by itself is funny, but when one considers the meaning of the cliche, the image becomes a dead­ ly serious one; and when one con­ siders the full implications of this catch-phrase it's horrifying that any person with the capacity for a moment's thought could ever serious­ ly mouth it. The underlying premise of the cliche "one man's terrorist is another man's freedom-fighter" is the notion of moral relativism. People have taken moral relativism to mean that different societies have different moral values, but moral relativism is the philosophic notion that if one society says "x is right" and another says x is wrong," then both societies are equally correct within their own respective spheres. In other words, when in Rome, do as the Romans do." Moral relativism holds that there are no overarching moral standards which are applicable to all persons in all societies during all time periods. It holds that a civilized society and a throng of savages are on an equal par morally. At first glance, t seems moral relativism makes for a more peaceful, tolerant, free world In truth, however, it makes for just the opposite. If it is indeed true that two societies with opposite moral values are both equally right, then one has no business criticizing any other society no matter how depraved and ugly its mores or folkways seem to be. If for instance, that notorious tyranny without a nation known as the Mafia chooses to deal with its constituents with concrete shoes, cyanide and TNT, one has no place to object. For that matter, if an established tyranny such as Nazi Germany or Communist Russia chooses to enslave and exter minate its constituents, one has n o place condemning that either, accord ing to relativism. Indeed, If mmal relativism ,s correct, one has noplace to even condemn one's own SOcie,y since moral relativism makes th^ whims of that society the definer of its own right and wrong. Moreover, since progress is the movmg from a worse state to a better rtirsSJSrrs mor.l existence of moral progress. ^ finally, since all societies are ultima ly comprised of individuals, m j relativism ultimately holds that individual has a place questioning morality of either his own aCtl<"!L! the actions of other individualscarries with it the insinuation humans are incapable of error.

Tickets went on sale to students on January 18. There were the usual dedicated fans present that every entertainer seems to have. These are the people who go to great lengths to see their chosen performer. Spending the night in front of the ticket booth the night before tickets go on sale is usually part of the trials most of the truly devoted fans go through just to get decent tickets. It is extremely frustrating to those people when not even camping out as many as 15 or 16 hours can pro­ vide tickets no closer than the seventh row and others are able to get front row seats without having to do much of anything for their tickets.

Appalachian Columnist blankets and sleeping bags, playing cards, and listening to and singing to Buffett. As midnight approached, everyone started growing restless and excited; it had been announced earlier that the numbers for ticket order were to be given out at midnight. Everyone was shocked when they found out the first number to be given to those waiting in line was 15. The first 14 had already been given to the "administration," we were told. Those people only had to show up by seven o'clock Monday morning to be guaranteed their place at the front of the line. Later, as seven o'clock drew near and more people arrived, we discovered that the first 14 numbers had been given to members of the A.P.P.S. council. If all of those people had been the ones to do the work involved in the concert (getting sponsors, selling tickets, promoting the concert, setting up the gym, cleaning it up afterwards, etc.), they would have every right to be the first ones in line. As it turned out, though, some of those first 14 weren't even members of the A.P.P.S. council! They were just friends of some of the peopie in A.P.P.S.; they did not work for the right to be the first ones in line, nor did they wait all or part of the night for their place in line. I know those who waited their turn tor tickets like everyone else will agree that a warm bed and a decent night's sleep must have been nice; unlike those first 14. we did not experience either Sunday night. Is this how dedication and tenaci­ ty are rewarded? Not everyone can join the A.P.P.S. council or become friends with a member or two just to get tickets to a concert without hav­ ing to work for them. Luckily,-there are still some people around with enough decency, dignity, and honor who are willing to work for what they want. If none come to mind, just look at the people who put forth the effort to get Buffett tickets. Their situation seems to prove that "all men are created equal" is just an idea in today's society.

The numbers were given out to students as a way of avoiding the problem of students camping out in the cold. Students could go to the Union, receive their number for this position in the ticket line, and go home, returning in the morning to purchase tickets. Appalachian Slaff Writer Students who waited in line Sunday night for tickets to the Jimmy Buffett concert were unhappy when other students arrived at 7 a.m. Monday morning and were able to get in line ahead of them. According to witnesses, there were approx­ imately 140 students in line in front of the Student Union by 7 a.m. when a group of 14 students arrived. By having priority numbers to get in line, they were able to get their tickets in front of the ones who had been there waiting. Memoriam Blood Drive The RSA and The Appalachian are sponsoring a blood drive in memory of Portia Arline Healy, who died January 2 after a sudden illness. Anyone wishing to donate blood in her honor should go to the Student Union between 9 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. on Monday, January 25. The Red Cross requires that prospective donors be 17 years of age, weigh at least 110 pounds and be in good health. The Red Cross nurses can advise individuals on whether they should give blood. Spring Break Schedule Changes ASU's 1988 academic calendars have been amend­ ed to include the observance of Martin Luther King, jr.'s birthday and to delete holidays that begin at noon on Fridays.

"We really worked hard," Robertson said, "to make the sales run smoothly." Before tickets went on sale, 50 had to be set aside for Jimmy Buffett's use and 25 for Corona Beer, the sponsoring company of the tour. This was part of the concert contract. On Friday before the ticket sales, someone on the A.P.P.S. staff suggested that all A.P.P.S. student volunteers have first chance at the priority numbers for a place in the ticket line. Approximately 14 students picked up a line number that Friday. "Considering that the students are volunteers," said Robertson, "and put on many events throughout the year, I will defend to a hilt their right to buy tickets first," Robertson said. Robertson was disappointed about students using multiple I.D.'s to get tickets.

SHAVER Appalachian Slaff Writer Along with a more smoothly functioning drop/add process, registration for the spring semester has ended with over 10,000 students enrolled at ASU. Registrar A. Brooks McLeod said by it's very nature drop/add is time consuming and difficult. "It's always going to be a tedious process to go through drop/add, if for no other reason than that at that time, there's not much going to be left," he said. "We do all we can to make things as smooth as possible, even though classes had started, we brought the lines inside the building. It was very cold outside and we . didn't want anyone to freeze," McLeod said. Drop/add seemed to work more effeciently this semester. "Very smooth," registration worker Darlene Risk said, "the lines have been long, but they've been going really fast." "I think the lines have gone quicker, the process has gone faster," McLeod said. "People came to drop/add this time with complete schedules, needing one or two changes, instead of coming to try to create schedules, as seemed to be happening dur­ ing fall semester drop/add." McLeod attributes some of the improve­ ment to increased student familiarity with the process. . ~ "I think people are getting used to the not nearly as bad as it could be. system to some extent.

Thirty-one students enrolled in leadership class By MARGARET MUGNIER Appalachian Slaff Writer Positions Open In SGA ASU student Eric Laton had arrived at the Student Union before 6 p.m. on Sunday to get in line for tickets, hoping to be the first student to buy tickets. Around midnight a member of A.P.P.S. arrived and began to hand out numbers to people who were in line. He began with number 15. When questioned about what happened to the first 14 numbers, he told the crowd that they were reserved for "administra­ tion." "I was not happy," Laton said. When the students arrived, and it was found out that they were not administration, "there were some harsh words flying," said Laton. Laton said the person who was number 14 bought $930 worth of tickets. After seeing that, another student had this to say, "Why did I bother sitting out here in the cold and rain?" Director of Student Programs, Dave Robertson explained what happened. The A.P.P.S. Concert Committee expected that students would line up to wait for tickets the night before Buffett tickets went on sale. "A.P.P.S. tried to pick the best day for ticket sales," Robertson said. "The first weekend back was decided on because of the holiday," Robertson 30IU, "and vnv IIVIIUUJ, I\UUV1 13UII said, dllU "We did not anticipate students would abuse the system.

Serials Librarian Tim McAdam discussed the overall effects of such vandalism. 'It is very expensive and time-consuming to order replacements," McAdam said. He added that journals and reference books are noncirculating items so they are easily accessible to the students and when they are vandalized they are off the shelves for a considerable length of time. "It's hard to catch someone in the act," McAdam said. "Faculty members have been a great help with the problem." The students who Whitehead caught last semester turned in papers right before Thanksgiving break. Sociology professor Wales Whitehead is one who caught students who ripped pages out of journals. "I've had plenty of students come to me and tell me that pages were missing. I've also had students who I suspected of tearing pages out," Whitehead said. The students who Whitehead caught last semester turned in papers right before Thanksgiving break. "The library was closed all during Thanksgiving break," Whitehead said. "After break, I went to check the sources and they had been ripped out. So no one else could have taken them." McAdam said that at this time the penalties for those caught include the replacement cost of the journal and an additional monetary penalty. "A policy is being worked on at this time," McAdam said. He added that there had been student judiciary action in the past, but there was none at this time. Both McAdam and Whitehead stressed that student awareness of the problem must be in­ creased. "I don't think that students are aware of the inconvenience they cause others," McAdam said. "I'm pretty much dependent on (the serials) to teach my classes. I teach sociology and it makes things very hard on me when I go to a journal and the pages are ripped out," Whitehead said. She added that she now checks sources on every one of her students' papers. "What I have to do now is start checking every single paper and it takes hours. I'd much rather do something else than go to the library and look up this stuff." she said. McAdam said vandalizing the bound jour­ nals is a violation of state law. "I confronted a student who thought it was OK (to rip out pages). He didn't realize the long-term effects," he said. McAdam said the input of students as well as faculty on the problem is appreciated. "If students are finding missing pages we'd like them to report it to us so we can get replacements," McAdam said. identify with other black leaders on cam­ pus." The course requires the attendance of all at a weekend workshop. Through discussion, debate, and lecture; skills like verbal communication, ethical decision making and delegating responsibili­ ty as they apply to black leadership will be introduced. Instructors hope that the course will be taught every semester to meet the black stu­ dent demand. The course is HEC 3536. Blood drive held to honor student at parents' request By JULIE WELLS Assistant News Editor Portia Arline Healy, 22, an ASU graduate and former Editor-in-Chief of The Appalachian, died Saturday, January 2 after a sudden illness. Healy graduated in May 1987 with a degree in public relations and returned last fall to complete a dou­ ble major in broadcasting and to serve as Editor-in-Chief of The Appalachian. "Portia put everything she knew into making The Appalachian live up to the standards of the editors who had preceded her," Director of Stu­ dent Publications and advisor to The Appalachian, Kathryn Knight said. 'She was very concerned about the quality of the paper and the wellbeing of the staff who worked with her." A blood drive sponsored by RSA and The Appalachian will be held on January 25 between 9 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. in the Student Union in honor of Healy. Instead of flowers, her parents have requested that blood donations be made in her honor. In order to donate blood, the Red Cross requires that the donor weigh at least 110 pounds, be 17 years of age and be in good health. Anyone with a cold or a sore throat, should Portia Healy hot give blood. Also, anyone who has been out of the country should not give blood. The Red Cross also advises that individuals on medication should stop by the blood mobile t one of the nurses about giving blood. "I really respected and admired Portia and I know that everyone is going to really miss her," current Editor-in-Chief of The Appalachian Shelley Kaehr said. "The blood drive is an extremely worthwhile cause." �THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDAY, JANUARY 21, 1988 STUDENTS PRO-AM I IOONI MALL - aOONI.N.C STRANGE.

Some steroids act as anti-inflammatory agents, reducing the amount of water and swelling around joints (a legitimate medical use). Steroids can also speed up body processes, such as decresing healing time. Steroids can make you aggressive," Sigmon said. The drugs can also slow down the body's own production of hormones, such as testosterone, simply because the glands that produce these hormones are no longer being called upon to produce while someone is on steroids. Some glands such as the testicles and through the black market are pure. He said that there are many "fake" steroids on the market, especially one called Anivar. People take steroids for the in­ crease in muscle mass and strength. "Steroids do work," Sigmon said. "But their side effects are not worth it." "There is no substitute for hard work," he added. "I'm totally against drugs." Sigmon used to be a bodybuilder himself, but got out of it because of the drugs used in the sport. Sigmon commented that one does not get the effects apparent in a Mr. or Ms. Universe without the use of steroids. "There is no substitute for hard work. I'm totally against drugs." "I'm interested where bodybuilding and powerlifting will be in the next five years," Sigmon said. Sigmon is a strong proponet of education, and he tells the team and classes he works with that "in the long run, it's just not worth it." Something to note is that the in­ cidence of steroid abuse in Varsity athletes is very small. Sigmon estimates it at less than three per cent. One controlling factor of this is the drug testing that goes on at national level. If a player tests positive for steroid abuse, they do not play. Steroids can be detected for up to a year, because they are not water soluble drugs, be­ ing stored in the fat cells of those who take them. One ASU student who wishes to re­ main anonymous told his story of steroid use. He used to work out at a gym outside of Greensboro, N.C. and got curious about steroids from seeing and hearing about others using them. Chip Sigmon ASU Strength Coach the pituitary gland may atrophy, or shrink. Because of the liver and kidneys having to filter these extra hormones, there tends to be a decrease in the effi­ ciency of the functions of these organs. Sigmon said this result is usually because of large doses over long periods of time. According to him, in rare cases there may be a deepening of the voice, hair loss and acne (because of increased nitrogen levels). There is a strong black market in steroids, with about 90 per cent com­ ing from illegal sources. Steroids are prescribed by doctors on a rare basis. According to Sigmon, it can be dif­ ficult to know the drugs that one gets Uproar He also did a lot of reading and research from various fitness magazines on the market. He even­ tually had enough information to do a research paper on steroids at another college he attended. Therefore, he knew of the risks involved in steroid use and figured "What the hell" and took them anyway, he said. He used them to put on muscle weight. In the two months that he was on steroids, he experienced rapid weight and strength gains. Working out (lifting weights) five days a week, for their health. Although usage is relatively low on campus, it has been recognized that a few people might have a problem with anabolic steroids by the ASU Infirmary. a pharmacy, so he had no worries he went from 160 lbs to 197 lbs and at his peak was able to do squats with 360 lbs of weight, doing sets of repeti­ tions each time. He got the drug testosterone from a friend at the gym at home. He bought just enough for a six-to-eight week cy­ cle. He said even though he wouldn't know where to get them in the Boone area "somebody's got a connection to get them somewhere." He said the bottle of the drug came in a sealed box, just like it would from about purity. It was taken by means of a deep muscle injection, in the hip area with a 1 Zi inch needle being in­ serted all the way into the muscle. He did low repetitions, with five "reps" per "set" when lifting, with heavy weight, such as the 360 lbs squats. He became familiar with how body builders use steroids, usually be­ ing on them for eight weeks and off for eight weeks, timing the "cycles" with competitions in mind. Considering all the risks he says that "I would never do them again." Mayor on temporary leave Continued from Page 1 Robertson said this had been dis­ cussed before the Christmas holidays. "It's (a) big time. People want to go to the concert with a large group of their friends around them, and it would be easier for tickets to be bought in quantity by one person," he said. "We did not anticipate students would abuse the system," Robertson said. "There probably should have been a limit." An upper limit of 15 tickets has been suggested. On the first day of sales 1500 to 1G0Q tickets were sold. As of yester­ day 2100 davJIlX have been sold. f= Appo/och/on n»to by Nancy Schulti PUMPING IRON FOR FITNESS: Many people pump iron for better health and to improve their build. Often steroids play a part in their exercising even^ though the drugs are generally considered bad "Our method made the line move faster," he said, "it is easier to make one transaction for a large number of tickets than it is to have many people standing in line getting fewer tickets at a time." Ski Hawksnest is also involved with the Jimmy Buffett concert. When students purchase a ticket, they receive a $1.00 off coupon for a lift ticket at Ski Hawksnest. Owner Jon Reynolds has decided to close the night of the concert, and buy tickets for his entire staff so they can see Buffett in concert. Also with every ticket purchased, Reynolds will donate $1.00 to A.P.P.S. Reynolds feels that by helping to promote events like these, he is pro­ moting activities in the high country area. "He's really worked hard to show ASU that's he's behind us," Robert­ son said. Robertson wished to remind students that this concert was fi­ nanced through their student activity fee, resulting in a cheaper ticket price than that at most Buffett concerts. Student ticket prices here are $12.50 and at UNC, where Buffett will per­ form the week before he comes here tickets are $16.50. Robertson expects a sellout crowd in Varsity Gym of ap­ proximately 6,366. 1 DIPPING IS FOR DIPS. AMERICAN CANCER DON USE SNUFF OR CHEWING TOBACCO ! Burnley takes over for Keeter By NICOLE PARSONS AppalRchinn News Editor Mayor Larry Keeter, who also serves as a professor in the sociology department has been granted a medical leave by the Boone Town Council. Keeter was re-elected to a second two-year term as mayor last October and has requested a leave for medical reasons. Velma Burnley, a member of the town council, will take over mayoral duties for Keeter. She was elected mayor Pro Tern by the council after she was sworn in on December 29. "It will be a personal challenge and opportunity to serve this way. I'm happy to be supportive of the town of Boone, I hope to do a credible job," Burnley said. ASU math professor, Dr. James Smith, also a member of the Town Council commented on Keeter's leave. "I hope he'll be back soon. 1 was looking forward to him leading us," Smith said. Keeter was not available for comment. In addition, Keeter has taken a leave from teaching this semester to conduct research for an off-campus profes­ sional assignment. He should be returning after this semester. Students are still able to attend the classes Keeter was originally scheduled to teach.

MILLER Appalachian Staff Writer Uniformed people wrenches in spokes There's no substitute for that awful sensation you get when you get run off from an organization you've busted your rear for. Back in 1980, when I was fifteen, I started spending my summers par­ ticipating in the local outdoor drama in Valdese, "From This Day Forward." PTDF was a fun show to do in those days. Unfortunately, FTDF became a big pain in subsequent years. The member­ ship of the board of directors changed and they hired obnoxious people to run the show for them. Community theater is always full of arrogant little people who think they're the be all and end all of theater even though they don't know who Stanislavski is or much else about theater. They often end up chasing away the people who do have a little training; this show was certainly no exception. The Old Colony Players pay their actors. The last summer I was in the show, playing one of the leads, I was paid $150 for two months work, a prac­ tice otherwise known as doling out bubblegum money. This meant they treated us like we were employees, as if we were being ade­ quately compensated for our time. Well, I could live with that; I enjoyed per­ forming and spending time with my friends in the cast and I was used to bit­ ching and yelling, although not to this degree, from all the shows I had done in the past. Then at the 1984 auditions the director had everyone do improvisational bits. He told my group to pretend we were chasing butterflies across a stage covered with mud puddles. Of course, I tripped while chasing my imaginary butterfly and fell face first into an imaginary mud puddle. I looked up, wiped off imaginary mud, and shouted "Damn you!" after the retreating butterfly. Everyone died laughing. That is except for the preacher who had just joined the board of directors. He threw a fit and got me blacklisted. There I was with a list of show credits longer than my arm, four previous seasons of the drama and a record of off­ season participation in Old Colony Players activities when this jerk walked in i off the street and threw me out! There ain't no justice, I tell you. I can think of at least two other people here MASU who have worked with me in the drama and would testify to the fact that I'm not that b£d to work with and that I didn't deserve it. And then there's the story about the choir director at my church. He got his left ear pierced, but never wore an earring to church. The preacher and the deacons, never an enlightened group at the best of times, but usually a pretty good bunch of guys', decided this meant he was a homosexual. They fired him. Then they lied to the congregation about it. I know that Southern Baptists don't condone homosexuality, but they con­ victed him of that one on mighty slim grounds. And I can't believe how ugly they were about it. A number of people quit going there, including me and one of the deacons. I did try to hang on, although I immediately quit the choir in protest. For several weeks I wore a clip-on earring to church, which would tell you how mad 1 was if you knew how much disdain I have for guys who wear earrmgs. But I finally quit going because I wasn't getting any worshipping done. It's been three and a half years now, and I still don't go to church much. And before this I had a pin for four years perfect attendance. That church may never heal. I don't think I can ever walk in there without thinking about certain people's un-christlike behavior. Since 1984, I performed another season of the drama. At the end of that season, I was so tired of all the crap going on that I haven't been back since. I attended church about eight times in 1987. My message? None really, except that maybe we ought to treat each other better; as it says in the good book, "What ye sow, also shall ye reap." .*^11 JUT,* Ever wonder what a recurring dream of bugs crawling in the bed means? Eckankar, a religion that uses dream interpretation and soul travel, helps people take control of their lives by unlocking the mystery of their dreams. Margaret Slattery, a pre-med stu­ dent and sole member of Eckankar at ASU, is working to get Eckankar officially recognized on campus as a group. The only problem, Slattery said, is that all former members other than herself, have graduated, and officers are needed for recognition purposes at ASU. Last spring, Slattery hosted five dream interpretation and soul travel talks on campus. Capacity crowds gathered for every meeting, she said. Judging from the favorable responses to past talks, she believes many peo­ ple are interested in the meaning of their dreams. "Eck," as she calls it, "is an inter­ national organization that teaches interested people how to work with their dreams," Slattery said. It con­ centrates on the kingdom of heaven within every person. "Eckists" use spiritual exercises rather than prayer to reach within themselves and discover who they truly are. Before a person can become an Eckist, they must study their dreams for a minimum of two years. Then out-of-body or soul travel, can be learned. "It (Eckankar) specifically teaches them how to remember and wake up during dreams," she said. Slattery, a native of Hawaii, taught meditation for 10 years. After becom­ ing disillusioned with the ostracizing effects of it, she was introduced to Eckankar through admittedly bizzare dreams. "Actually, Eck leads each individual to interpret his or her own dreams," Slattery said. By working with dreams through an inner teacher, as she describes it, a person can explore their inner fears and become a more stable person by discovering who they are and why they're here on earth. "The answers aren't TOLD," she said. So mystical voices do not speak to someone the minute they start try­ ing to interpret their dreams. Each person learns to interpret their own dreams. For example, Slattery has learned that dreams of floods are omens of disaster or upheaval in her life. One of Eck's guiding principles is that people do not have a soul—they ARE soul. Dream interpretation and soul travel all lead to this discovery. Eckists believe in living a dynamic life, and by removing fears and selfimposed limitations, life can be lived as a challenge. Evil becomes a test of soul and serves as a threshing of the grain, so to speak. All the problems that spring up on life's pathway mere­ ly make a person stronger. What differentiates Eckankar from most orthodox religions is its individuality. All answers about God, soul and life are given through inner channels for individual understand­ ing. There are also no churches or set patterns of worship. This spring, Slattery will host a series of lectures on dreams and soul travel on campus. The first two meetings are scheduled for Thursday and Friday, January 21 and 22 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the TV room of the Student Union. Anyone interested in Eckankar, dreams or soul travel is invited. For more infor­ mation, contact Margaret Slattery at 295-9410. Excellence is nurtured at The Applachian By J. SHAVER The Appalachian has served as a springboard to journalism careers for many past staff members in­ cluding the local level. Many students have later worked at the Watauga either a writing or editorial capacity," she added. Among former staff members who have worked for the Democrat are Harry Picket, Sports Editor for the Democrat for several years and currently working for The Charlotte Observer. A1 Brumley presently works with a Texas daily and Jenni Gray applies her writing skills at the ASU news bureau. "I'd say at least in the past 10 years, we've had more than 10 people from The Appalachian working with us in either a part-time or a full-time capacity," Democrat editor Sandra Shook said. "A majority of those have been in a full-time capacity and have moved on to daily newspapers in Democrat are staff writer Jenny Schrum, sports- Appalachian Staff Writer Democrat. ASU graduates presently working for the writer Jerry Snow and copy editor Mike Hannah. Former sports editor of The Appalachian Jerry Snow believes the paper improved his writing enough to work for the Democrat. "I learned a lot of good writing skills at The Ap­ palachian. It's very professional and one of the top college papers in the nation year in and year out," Snow said. "I learned a lot of interview techniques and how to deal with coaches and people." Mike Hannah, former Editor-in-Chief of the ASU paper, feels he would be teaching instead of copy editing if it hadn't been for The Appalachian. "Working for The Appalachain got me interested in editing," Hannah said. "I was trained to be a teacher. If I hadn't started copy editing at The Ap­ palachian, I probably wouldn't be doing it now." Nantucket dazzles crowd at H'Appy's By SHARYN SMITH Appalachian Staff Writer Last Saturday, Apps Stage Shows started the semester off with a rock and roll concert at H'Appy's by one of North Carolina's favorite bands, Nantucket. The show started with a special guest appearance by The Boogie Monsters. This band included two of the original members of Nantucket, Tommy Redd and Mike Uzzell. Their fun mix of country and southern rock seemed to put the crowd in an upbeat mood before Nantucket hit the stage. The original Nantucket started when Mike Uzzell, Tommy Redd and Mark Downing put together a rhythm and blues band called "Stack of Gold". In 1971 they renamed the group "Nantucket Sleighride". Later, the name was shortened to Nantucket. To date, Nantucket has released six albums and opened up for such na­ tional acts as Boston, Foreigner, The Doobie Brothers, Journey and Kiss. The band's line up has changed See NANTUCKET Page 7 Appalachian Photo by Rich Koon Nantucket performs their hard rock tunes for a small but enthusiastic crowd. Monstrous tunes: The Boogie Monsters By AQUALUNG This past weekend I made a big mistake. I inadvertently let some editor know I was catching some tunes at H'Appy's. Anyway, rumor has it the paper is going to be big and some editor gave me a call crying for copy. So here I am. I've only got one thing to say—Nantucket should have opened for The Boogie Monsters last Satur­ day night. The Monsters are one rockin' party band. I immediately put them on my list of bands for the First Annual Par­ ty to Die coming up in the near future. The songs performed varied from one to the next. There were wide open, screaming tunes as well as bluesy numbers.

No doubt about it, those guys would make a great party band. One of the first things that impress­ ed me was the volume. They weren't too loud! That's saying a lot for any band that plays H'Appy's, consider­ ing the fact most seem bent on bursting eardrums. There's nothing I love more than seeing a band member sucking down beer on stage either. It just seems to put rock fans in the right frame of mind for a show. Previous Nantucket members Tom­ my Redd (guitar) and Mike Uzzell (keyboards) were a part of the band along with Dave Jarema on the drums. Nantucket sure came out on the short end of the stick in losing them. The songs performed varied from one to the next. There were wide open, screaming tunes as well as bluesy numbers which I have a weakness for anyway. Mainly, the Monsters stuck to their own, original tunes but a few covers were slipped in too. The Rolling Stones' "Heartbreaker" was a big, but pleasant, sur­ prise. Although not the Stones, the song got the restless crowd tapping their toes. Later during the set, after a long intro, the group spurted forth with Rod Stewart's "Stay With Me" much to the delight of those in attendence. One memorable tune was the raunchy "Cocaine Whore." Redd laid down some blistering guitar licks leading up to the band members 'snorting' into the microphones. Laughter and cheers erupted after each 'line.' One outstanding aspect of the show was Redd using a spoon for a pick. We're talking everyday, ordinary kit­ chen spoon here. Redd played like a bat out of hell for the next few high energy, hard rock songs. Pretty im­ pressive. The charismatic Monsters led by Uzzell finally got the lazy crowd out on the floor for the final numbers. A lot of sweat was shed in spite of the small group. All in all, I was sorry to see the Monsters crawl back into their cave. It's a shame an avalanche didn't trap Nantucket in one.

Winners of the various Alpine and Nordic events will go on to compete in the international games which are to be held at Lake Tahoe, Nevada, early in 1989. Nantucket Conlinued from Page 5 from their format in the early days of six people including horns and keyboards to four people with a more straight ahead and driving sound. Larry Uzzell, the lead singer, is the only remaining original member of the band. Other members of the new band are Jason Patterson on drums, Perry Richardson on bass and Rob Greene on guitar. Nantucket began their show with a song from their fifth album called "Can't Stop Rockin' ". This set the stage for the high energy rock show that followed. Nantucket played both the old and new originals. Some of the old hits in­ cluded "Heartbreaker", "Rugburn" and "Born in a Honkey Tonk". They also played a new song, "Nights On Fire", which will be released on their next album. The band showed their talent and diversity by playing-a wide variety of cover tunes that ranged from the Beetles and Rolling Stones to heavy metal songs of TNT and Malice. Larry Uzzell displayed not only his talent on lead vocals but also his abili­ ty to turn on a crowd. He got the au­ dience involved by holding out his microphone and encouraging them to sing along. His playful banter really won the crowd over. Uzzell is still one of the best front men around. Jason Patterson's hard hitting at­ tack on uiums provided a powerful rhythm for the band. His drum solo brought screams from the crowd and left audience musicians in awe. Perry Richardson was like a live wire on stage. His thrashing and powerful bass lines kept the crowd moving. His vocals on backup and lead show an incredible range. Rob Greene, the newest Nantucket member, exhibited amazing finesse on the guitar. Greene is in his early twen­ ties and has been with the band for four months. He proved to add a fresh dimension to the new Nan­ tucket. Presently, Nantucket is finishing up recording at Omega Studios in Washington, D.C. The tracks have several sounds that include ballads, multi-vocals and straight ahead rock. The project will be shopped around to the major record labels later this year. Mike Uzzell, manager of Nantucket, said some songs are being considered for future movie sound tracks. The experience, talent and profes­ sional production of Nantucket set high standard of quality for future concerts at H'Appy's. I was disap­ pointed to see less than 300 people in the audience. Hopefully, more students will take advantage of the high level in entertainment H'Appy's continues to provide. In keeping with the January tradi­ tion of new beginnings, the Student Service Learning Project has changed its name to THE STUDENT COM>IUNITY SERVICE PROJECT. The focus of the project will remain the same, providing volunteer oppor­ tunities for students to serve the lowincome residents of Watauga County. The volunteer assignments are varied and flexible. During our first semester, Fall '87, 67 ASU and Watauga High School students provided 1,100 hours of ser­ vices to Watauga County. Their dedication and hard work is to be commended! If you are looking for a new direc­ tion in 1988 then Community Service may be the answer. By serving others, you can gain a sense of accomplishment while learn­ ing new skills. You can really make a positive difference in the community.Graduate schools and employers often look for applicants with community service experience. This kind of involvement helps to portray an applicant as a more wellrounded individual i ne first volunteer training session of 1988 will be held on Saturday, February 13, from 10:00 to 3:00, with STUDENT SERVICELEARNING PROJECT "HELPING HANDS lunch provided. Our training sessions are fun and informative! To apply please call Debbie Atkinson or Kim Porter at 262-2764.

VHDMU^^ECCES EQUIPMENT, Ol F f° n Fly to nassau ^pUise to Freeport When Mark and I decided to spend the weekend at his mother's house, I never imagined I would be walking into a mouse's nightmare. There were cats everywhere. Cat plaques, cat statues, cat clocks, even a cat mat. I couldn't begin to dupli­ cate her collection of kitty litter it" I spent a year at a garage sale. Conspicuously absent, however, was a real cat. Strange, I thought, and began to fear that a weekend with cat woman could be a lot less than purr-fect. But then she came home, and Mark introduced her. She was dressed surprisingly well—no leopard pants. In fact, you could say she was the cat's meow, but I'd rather not. She offered me a cup of Dutch Choc­ olate Mint. Now that was something I could relate to. Then she brought it out in the most beautiful, distinctly unfelinc china I'd ever seen. As we sipped, I found out that Mrs. Campbell has my same weakness for chocolate, loves the theater as much as I do, but, incredibly never saw "Cats." So Mark and I are taking her next month.

Rhonda Hill Student The songs, which were all original Hiv f ' by the group, were a departure from the long.awaited "headbangin' beerdrinkin' T°P 40 ••neauu—Bmetal cover bands" that have been running rampant in the area as of late. The driving beat and overwhelm­ ing energy of the croup caused tahles compositions 'ey and Rob Schladensky, all ASU students. Marley writes most of the music on his acoustic guitar and then the whole group rounds out the song, writing the bass and drum lines. Regardless of how the songs actually come into being, the end result is an amazing blend of sensitive lyrics and forceful drum beats. Writing their' own material keeps them from having to mimic others' music. Very few people can say that they have an original sound...I think things have moved a lot faster for us writing our own music," Marley said. They began playing regionally a year ago at Apollo's, and also played in the Pub when the Outfield cancell­ ed earlier this year. Local support seems to be picking up, but at first, the Outer Limits had to "plaster flyers all over campus, because when CONCERT DATES iN. 21 Assassin's LN. D.J.

One student, Rhonda Hill, said "1 don't generally even like that style of music (alternative), but I really liked it. It was great."

CARROLL Appalachian Staff Writer Jimmy "the Greek" crosses thin line By now, most of the nation has heard that CBS has dismissed—no fired jimmy "the Greek" Snyder. CBS's action appears to be shocking and stunning many people, but I believe the network deserves a standing ovation. Even without disagreeing or agreeing with the remarks he made, Snyder's remarks clearly lack professionalism. The comments also cause me to wonder whether Jimmy has every heard of the word "tact." A 12 year veteran who is earning the Greek's "cushy" salary has no excuse for making racial comments on national network television, and by now, I have heard every flimsy excuse that could possibly be made. Let me highlight some of these wonderful excuses. One. "Jimmy was at the bar." Does this excuse imply that perhaps he had had too much to drink? Well, Jimmy "just say no" or simply say nothing at all. Two. "He didn t mean it that way." After years and years of experience, I find it really hard to believe that Jimmy has problems saying what he means and meaning what he says. Three. "He didn't know that he was being televised." With the light from the camera shining in his face, Jimmy was well-aware of what was taking place. Sorry. This excuse just does not work either. Four. "Maybe his comments were true." This excuse is by far the worst that I have heard. The issue is not whether or not Snyder's comments are true or false. In my opinion, as a sports prognosticator, he had no right to make his comments one way or the other. Remarks such as the ones he made are those proven or disproven by historians or geneticists and then documented in a reputable publication. In sports, the individuals that are recognized should be credited with ability and not with being recognized by the color of their skin or, even worse, their breeding. In addition to his lack of professionalism in making his remarks at all, Snyder's comments could not have been delivered in a more untimely manner! I'm sure Martin Luther King, Jr. didn't receive a birthday tribute that even came close to rivaling Jimmy's remarks for the worst of the year. I personally won t miss Snyder at all on CBS next season. I suppose that I should have never doubted that he lacked professionalism by the manner in which he made his sport prognostications. How can anybody who chooses the L.A. Raiders as winners every single week have any objectivity. | CBS should be rewarded for making the tough decision to fire a face as | familiar as Snyder's. I definitely believe the decision was a sound one. In addi­ tion, the network chose to make clear the distinction between the views of the network and the views of Snyder. I only have to wonder why the decision took over 24 hours before CBS released a statement. So I, an avid sport fan, happily bid my fellow North Carolinian Jimmy "the Greek" Snyder goodbye. There is a fine line between expanding the horizons of the sports world and stepping beyond the world of sports to make justifica­ tions within the athletic community. Snyder definitely chose to cross the lines and step out of bounds.

Whiteside )ut, ac P ain exactly what happened >n~i« 85 most nennlA close to her ecoii most people °lle«, she was extremely ill. The favored Marshall University Thundering Herd came into a charged Varsity Gymnasium last Saturday, and escaped with an 88-80 win over the Mountaineer men's basketball team. Marshall, 10-4 overall, opened their Southern Conference season by win­ ning the opening tip, working the ball well and finding their Ail-American candidate Skip Henderson for two points. Henderson, who averages 23.8 points per game, played as steadily as one would expect form a probable high NBA draft selection. Following the Marshall bucket, ASU exploded to a 12-6 bulge led by junior guard/forward Ronnie Chris­ tian and Sophomore Kemp Phillips. Christian's hustle plus Phillips' deadeye three point shooting kept ASU in the lead until the first timeout with 14:08 remaining in the first half. The two teams traded baskets for the next few minutes until a fantastically athletic rebound dunk by Marshall's Maurice Bryson sparked the herd to a 21-18 lead. Tom Apke's team showed a great deal of fortitude when behind all night. Down by three with 9:30 left in the half, ASU's Phillips hit a three point shot to tie the game. Marshall's Henderson answered the call by hit­ ting for two. Not to be outdone, Kemp Phillips zeroed another three pointer to put ASU ahead 24-23. After a timeout with 8:30 left in the first stanza, ASU switched defenses to a matchup zone. The Herd appeared to be well prepared for this defense by head coach Rick Huckabay. Marshall ran out to a 31-26 lead until the ASU home crowd was delighted by a Jerry Holmes spectacular steal and power­ ful slam-dunk. Skip Henderson took the vocal crowd right back out of the game by finding the range on a key three pointer. Before halftime, ASU's Phillips and guard Rodney Peel both hit pressure three point plays to narrow the Marshall lead to 6, 40-34. The Mountaineers played the sort of first half that proves this team is ready to challenge the big boys of the Southern Conference any night they choose. The only missing ingredient is the self confidence that all upper divi­ sion teams have. Ronnie Christian's hustle plus the disregard Jerry Holmes showed for his body on loose balls coupled with the shooting touch and defense of Kemp Phillips were the positive signs that ASU basketball fans have been looking for. If the first half was a peek into the future of ASU basketball, the first 44 seconds of the second half were straight out of coach Apke's twilight zone. The Herd came out of the locker room breathing fire and expanding their lead to 44-34. After an ASU timeout, the Mountaineers switched to the matchup zone again, but this time with different results. The ASU defenders worked tirelessly to shut the Herd offense down and get back into the game. Appalachian hholo by ASU SID Rodney Peel When Marshall's Tom Curry was forced to leave the game with four fouls only 4:25 into the half, the Mountaineers picked on the Herd full court pressure and got the ball to Sam Gibson on a long pass that resulted in a crowd pleasing slam. Once again, the Herd's Henderson canned a shot at the other end to take the wind out of ASU's sails. What could have turned into a rout instead became a lesson in courage for the Mountaineers. ASU's cagers fought their way to a 55-55 tie, highlighted by steals and transition layups by Gibson and Peel. The possibility of an upset was dashed when on the next possession when Marshall ran the shot clock down to two seconds before freshman A.P. Williamson hit a devastating jumpshot. For the rest of the game until about 2 minutes remaining, the Marshall Thundering Herd played well enough to keep the scrappy Mountaineers at bay. The death knell for Apke's troops came with 1:40 remaining when Marshall's Tom Curry hit a rebound layup and was fouled by Ben Miller. Miller, a 6-6 sophomore, was disqualified on the play as was sophomore Sam Gibson in a freak occurrence. Tom Curry was at the line shooting his free throw awarded on Ben Miller's disqualifying fifth foul. Gibson apparently fouled Marshall's Rodney Holden on the made free throw. His fifth foul forced Gibson to the bench and allowed the Herd to convert on both charity tosses putting them ahead 82-75. The Mountaineers fought valiantly to regain any hope of a lead but the Herd was able to hold them off to win, 88-80. In retrospect, the Mountaineer fans should feel a sense of pride and accomplishment in their team. ASU played a whale of a ball game and almost upset a team many consider Top 20 material. The feat is more impressive when Marshall had to shoot 66 percent from the floor to win by only 8. Though the loss drops the Mountaineers to 0-3 in the con­ ference, it does serve notice that the trip up the mountain to Boone is no longer going to be a cake walk. Lady Apps stay undefeated in conference By PAUL L. CARROLL Appalachian Staff Writer The Lady Mountaineer Basketball team passed perhaps its toughest test so far this season last Saturday. Beating the Marshall University Lady Herd 63-60, Linda Robinson's troops let it be known they intend to pursue the rest of the Southern Con­ ference in defense of last season's conference crown. From the opening tip, both teams played tentatively until almost five minutes into the first half when ASU's Valorie Whiteside came alive to erase an early Marshall lead and tie the game 13-13. Whiteside lived up to her All-American credentials especial­ ly considering she was ill during both halves of play. Even though Whiteside was not feeling up to par, she dominated play and scored 29 points. No one could have questioned Whiteside's considerable basketball skills, or her commitment to the university, her teammates, and overall excellence. ing no points. ASU's head coach, Linda Robinson, then spotted an op­ portunity with 6:30 left in the half to switch to a 2-1-2 zone and press the Lady Herd. The Lady Mountaineers responded by jumping out to a 23-17 lead. The momentum seemed to be in ASU's favor until with 23 seconds re­ maining in the half, ASU's Whiteside missed the front end of a one-andone. Marshall then converted at the other end of the floor to close the gap to 29-28, ASU leading at the buzzer. Debbie Swicegood, ASU's junior guard, opened the scoring in the se­ cond half to put the Lady Moun­ taineers ahead 31-28. Anchored by superb efforts from juniors Jenny Leavitt and Sharon Deal, Marshall's defense held ASU in check long enough for the Lady Herd to take a 41-39 lead on a fastbreak layup by sophomore sparkplug, Jonelle Stephenson. Down two, the Lady Mountaineers had ample opportunity to fold. But In the middle of the first half, both with 10:20 left in the game, Kim teams traded baskets until with 8:30 Johnson stepped to the forefront to left in the half, Marshall called a time hit a pressure long range jumpshot to out. Resuming play, ASU's tenacious tie the game at 41. Johnson, a 6-1 man-to-man defense shut Marshall's junior transfer, played well in the lane offense down for two minutes, allow­ at both ends of the court, jjlus her re­ bounding and physical presence took much of the pressure off Valorie Whiteside. With eight minutes left in the game, Whiteside hit a shot to put the Lady Mountaineers back in front 43-41. After the bucket, coach Robinson switched again to a zone defense that the Marshall players did not recognize, forcing head coach Judy Southard to spend a timeout. Switch­ ing back to a man defense after the timeout, Whiteside hit a basket with 7:09 left and then stole the ball on defense, feeding forward Beth Laney for two points. The unusually large Varsity Gymnasium crowd came alive and helped carry the Lady Moun­ taineers through the late game full court pressure from Marshall to a 63-60 victory. The win on Saturday was the first for coach Robinson against Marshall in Varsity Gymnasium, and lifted the Lady Mountaineers to 2-0 in the con­ ference and a 13-2 overall. Also, the victory sets up a key con­ ference game next Saturday in Chat­ tanooga against the Lady Mocs. Coach Southard said after the game that the ASU-UTC game could answer the question of who is the best team in the Southern Conference. ASU S3 60 MARSHALL ASU MP Swicegood Bracket!

Did she think about not playing? "No way," exclaimed Whiteside. As for Coach Robinson, she left the decision up to Whiteside. "I told Val to go out hard for a minute or two and come out if she had to. Fortunately, she didn't have to." One might ask, under those condi­ tions, how could anyone perform well? Whiteside not only performed well, but under the conditions, she dominated. In the end, she recorded 29 points, 10 rebounds, and a halftime that she will never forget. "Val didn't listen at halftime cause she was in the other room," Robinson said. Appalachian went on to beat the Thundering Herd 63-60 and the Inman, S.C., resident did her part. So, for her outstanding and unselfish efforts on and off the court, Whiteside wins The Appalachian Athlete of the Week honors hands down. Players of her caliber just don't come along very often. BOONE, NC—No doubt about it, the North Carolina High Country is the place to be if January finds you with an irresistible urge to strap on the boards and head down the slopes. But if you're one of those who enjoy skiing as a spectator sport, special events in the High Country in January are tailor made for you too. Those who have never skied but have always wanted to try need to mark January on their calendars. Ski Hawksnest is offering "Learn to Ski" packages for those who make reserva­ tions. The package includes free lessons and equipment rentals with the purchase of a lift ticket. A notable special event is the Southeastern Handicap Regional Clinic and Races held at Ski Beech on January 20-24. The event, which features races involving the blind, amputees and paraplegics, is one of eight regional qualifying events for spaces on the U.S. Disabled Ski Team. Following quickly on the heels of that event, Ski Beech hosts the NATO (North American Telemark Organiza­ tion), North Carolina Cross Co ltry Ski Festival, a three-day series of nordic events culminating in a NATO clinic/festival featuring NATO's founder and Vermont's most-noted "tele" skier Dick Hall. The festival runs from January 24-26. If you like watching (or par­ ticipating in) racing events, Crescent Ski Council races are set for January 24-25 at Ski Hawksnest. On January 22, the National Col­ legiate Ski Association Race will pit the southeast's best young athletes against one another at Sugar Moun­ tain. Sugar will also host the annual Hometown Advantage Race on January 28 (co-sponsor is The Moun­ tain Times.) Junior racing teams (8-18 years of age) will take to the slopes at Hawksnest on January 31 during the High Country Junior Alpine Racing Series. Teams from Hawksnest, Appalachian, Beech and Sugar will find out who's the swiftest of them all. With the advent of sophisticated snow-making equipment, southern skiing has finally come into its own. According to statistics compiled by the National Ski Areas Association, southeastern ski areas recorded 5.8 million skier visits during the 1986-87 season, an 11.5 percent increase over the previous year (which had shown an 18.8 percent increase over the 1984-85 season). Of those visits, 680,000 were recorded in North Carolina, with most (576,000) occurring at resorts in the High Country, owner of Appalachian Ski Mountain, Grady Moretz said, which celebrated its 25th Anniversary last year. The big news in High Country ski­ ing this year is at Ski Beech in Beech Mountain, Eastern America's highest incorporated town (elevation 5,505 feet above sea level). Since the close of last season, the resort has undergone a $1.5 million expansion, including development of 25 acres of additional intermediate terrain and installation of the southeast's first high-speed detachable quad lift designed to cut lift time to the top of the mountain by about two-thirds, according to general manager Sepp Gmuender. Because the chairs are free of the high-speed cable when passengers load, it will also allow beginners more time to maneuver into place. The new lift can carry 2,400 skiers to the mountaintop per hour, and will cut riding time from nine to three and one-half minutes, Gmuender said. Appalachian Ski Mountain also expanded its operations over the summer, doubling its snowmaking capacity on the lower part of the mountain, extending one slope and the lift that served it and adding a new children's instruction area. It also added a toll-free telephone number for N.C. and the Eastern U.S. for reservations and group information. Neither Sugar Mountain nor Ski Hawksnest underwent major expan­ sions during the off-season, though Hawksnest last year added Goshawk, a new 1,450 ft. intermediate slope, and relocated a double chair to serve it. The High Country's four major resorts, all within 25 miles of one another, offer the ski enthusiast the greatest concentration of skiing in the South: 47 slopes for beginners to experts, night skiing (including Hawksnest's popular all-night Satur­ day ticket from 11 p.m.-4 a.m.) seven days a week, rentals, lessons, racing and a potpourri of special events. Sugar Mountain holds the Stewart Smith Memorial Sugar Cup Slalom on February 7; its 11th Annual ProAm Races February 11; and has ten­ tatively set March 12-13 for its 4th Annual Spring Fling. Hawksnest's 4th Annual Spring Carnival is scheduled for March 5. For more information on these and other special events in the High Coun­ try this winter, call N.C. High Coun­ try Host at 1-800-222-7515 in North Carolina; 1-800-438-7500 in Eastern U.S.; or 264-1299 locally. The office is open seven days a week from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Slope conditions at the four resorts are also available. �THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDA Y.

I fully realized the enormity of my friends' commitment to soaps during the Reagan-Gorbachev summit in December. As any afternoon TVviewer knows, CBS, ABC, and NBC often pre-empt shows with updates about important political goings-on. I considered the summit fairly impor­ tant, what with the short and medium-range missiles deal, but apparently Tristan Rogers comes first in the minds of many Americans.

As you know I take the conserv­ ative stand on most of the issues. The BUT THEY MAKE A MEAN FURRY HAT/ ANP V0PKA / OLIVER?... IMML* • .„ „, , __ viewed as a Liberal or a Conservative is based on how we view the nature of mankind. The liberal sees man as basically good and shaped by the social condi­ tions that he or she is raised in. The example given is: we come into this world like a blank sheet of paper and what we will be is determined by what gets written on the paper. This is not how the Conservative views man. He sees man as selfish and ego-centered. John Calvin described man as totally depraved in his nature, unable to change. In his description we are born selfish. A good illustration can be summed up in one word: "mine." Can you remember when you first started to invoke this word over a toy that you did not want to share? The toys in life change but the "mine mentality" can still be a dominant part of our makeup. As I was visiting a friend the other night, we talked about local politics. New building and the influx of people into the Boone area were the subjects of our discourse. It seems that there are members of the town council that do not want more people or construc­ tion in Boone. The feeling is that all of this is ruining the area. The irony is all the town council are not native local residents themselves. This is the "mine" mentality on the city level. 'We don't want a bunch of outsiders In Memory of Portia A Healy ° messing up OUR mountains.' How do we see this on the national level? The "mine mentality" is shown in two ways: foreign trade protec­ tionism and anti-immigration senti­ ment. I will focus on the latter for the present. When the Statue of Liberty was restored, there was a great philosophical oversight made. The torch should have been replaced with a stop sign and the words on the base changed. It should now read, "Keep your tired, poor, huddled masses, we don't want them." The white bigots wanted to ship the blacks to Africa; now the black bigots want to ship the Mexicans, Cubans and Orientals back. Some of the objections are over jobs, economics, and national securi­ ty. There are even groups formed such as Federation for American Immigration Reform and the Global Tomorrow Coalition. The more than five million constituents are not in favor of leaving the doors open any longer. The truth is we are taking in less people in proportion to our native born population. Less than one in 15 people in the U.S. are foreign-born We are no longer a nation of immigrants as we once were There is also evidence that immigrants add jobs to the economy by way of small businesses. The people that want to come to the U.S. do not want to go on Portia was born in the U.S. Army Hospital at Fort Polk, Louisiana During her short 22 years with us she lived the nomadic life of an Army Brat.

BALDWIN Classifieds SUPERIOR WORD PROCESS­ ING—Expert typing, proofing, taking people for granted. That friend you ve known since your freshman year who s always been there when you needed a shoulder to cry on... that stranger who became a really good friend over the sum­ mer... the guy that lives across the street back home who you've known forever.. .that girl or guy you've had a crush on for six months—those peo­ ple might not be around tomorrow. I realize that's not a pleasant thought, but it is a reality. As difficult as it might be to tell someone that they're important to you, it's far more dif­ ficult to have to spend the rest of your life wishing you had. A final lesson I've learned from death involves not taking yourself for granted. That ties in with the philosophy I've had for some time, live your life so that you have no regrets." If you look at life as a series of obstacles and opportunities, this philosophy means, "get past all of the obstacles while grabbing as many of the opportunities as you can." In real terms, it means: once in a while, when you're about to say, "I've always wanted to..." stop yourself and say, "today I'm going to..and then do it, dammit. Since it seems impossible to actually live your life with no regrets, I'll supplement my philosophy with another one I recent­ ly heard: "Funny thing about regret ... it's better to regret something you have done than it is to regret something you haven't done." I hope that reading this has made you do something that none of us do often enough—think. Keep thinking, and keep passing the open windows. Appalachian Columnist jb Hamby. Fred Moss. Mary ' Edwards.

Four people who no longer exist except in the memories of those who loved them. Dare These deaths were significant to They took away my childish belief that death was something abstract, almost unreal, that always happened to other people. I suppose that after seeing my best friend put a bullet through his head, I had no chioce but to accept the reality of death. perhaps the most important, and certainly one of the most difficult things to learn about death is how to accept the death of someone you love. 1 am really sick of the cliches: "Death is just a part of life." "We all gotta go sometime." "It was God's will." .1 could fill a page with those worthless platitudes about death, but I'd rather not. Though I've had ample experience in accepting and dealing with death during the past few months, when I tried to put the words on paper, I couldn't do it as well as Mark Knopfler: "It takes love over gold—and mind over matter—to do what you do that you must—when the things that you hold—can fall and be shattered—or run through your fingers like dust.. Another valuable lesson to be learned from death has to do with not me.

The Appalachian State Mountaineers got an outstanding performance from its defensive unit as well as 156 yards rushing from sophomore tailback Ritchie Melchor as they downed the Eagles of Georgia Southern 19-0 to advance to the semi-finals of the NCAA I-AA playoffs. The ASU defense controlled the Eagles' explosive run-and-shoot offense as they gave up just 261 total yards. It also marks the first time Georgia Southern has been shutout since the school revived the football pro­ gram six years ago. Maybe the biggest play of the game came on the Apps second possession. ASU mounted a drive that stalled at the Eagle 18-yard line and out came placekicker Bjorn Nittmo for an ap­ parent 35-yard field goal attempt. The play never got off before a Southern defensive lineman slammed into ASU center Mike Day to give the Apps a first down at the Eagle 13. Georgia Southern Coach Erk Russell felt his players were deliberately drawn offsides and called it a big play. "It was just about as big as you can get," Russell said. "It was seven points and that was enough to win the game." The Mountaineers wasted no time taking advantage of their newfound life as Melchor darted 13 yards down the right sideline on the next play for his first of two touchdowns. The weather finally came into play in the second quarter as Georgia Southern quarterback Raymond Gross coughed up the football on the ASU 44 and App defensive lineman Anthony Downs came away with the recovery.

The largest fee increase was an additional $100 to the existing housing fee. Board members feel the high cost of living is justification for this action. Other additions to existing fees include: a $50 board fee increase to cover rising food, personnel and operational costs; a $16 book rental fee increase; $13 Student Activities fee increase; $5 Athletic fee increase; a $1 Stu­ dent Union fee increase. Several board members expressed concern with the lack of student awareness concern­ ing the fee increase process. "The biggest problem is lack of com­ munication with the students. They feel that they have no control over how the money is spent," SGA President Cary Anne Wolf said. Business Affairs Committee Chairperson Seby Jones discussed one possibility for en­ couraging student participation in the fee in­ creases. "In the future, we should bring in some of the student leadership on campus and give them the opportunity to have some input in this," Jones said. The board ratified the proposed Capital Improvement Program for the 1989-91 Biennium. The proposal, which will be sent to the General Assembly, includes a new $23,5553,196 Math and Science building, a $17,859,501 Visual Arts Center and a $3,310,160 Parking Deck. The total estimated cost for all 19 capital im­ provements is over $81 million. Two authorizations for Capital Im­ provements were ratified. Wood and Cort, P.A. of Asheville, North Carolina was authorized to assist in the renovation of the Bavarian Inn. Dennis Yates Associates of Concord, North Carolina, was authorized to assist in the completion of the second floor of the Student Support Building. Several firms were voted on by the board to assist in other capital improvement pro­ jects. Haken/Corley and associates were hired to complete a $300,000 renovation of the Varsi­ ty Gymnasium. For the expansion of the University Food Facilities, Calloway, Johnson, Moore, P.A. was selected. Mechanical Engineers, Inc. was hired to replace plumbing in Coffey Residence Hall, and to replace the mechanical systems in the indoor swimming pool. Vice Chancellor for Development Bob Snead said ASU lost 17 percent of the $8 million they invested in the stock market. "One of our money managers did very well and we think 12 percent will come back to us," Snead said. "We did better than the Dow Jones average," he added. I The Academic Affairs Committee re­ quested a leave of absence for Professor of' English Dr. Robert Higbie. Higbie has been nominated for a Fulbright Appointment, and will be in Hungary during the spring semester 1988. In a report to the Board, Chancellor John Thomas said that he is proud of ASU's com­ puter capabilities. He cited the fact that the university now owns 925 microcomputers. He also mentioned that students have access to 400 computers at 25 locations on campus. Thomas also discussed the possibility of expanding a computer network which ties ASU with UNC-Asheville and Western Carolina University. The expansion would allow for access to 2500 universities worldwide.

"A friend who I really trust and ad­ mire suggested that I apply. I have never been an editor, but I don't see that as a problem," Kaehr said. "I have learned to deal with people and manage them by being a Sophomore Justice, a public defender, and a stage manager," she said. "The beginning of the semester will be a time of learning for everybody involved because there are many new positions being filled," Healy said. "I have a lot of confidence in (Shelley). She worked before the in­ terview preparing for it which in­ dicates self-motivation and dedica­ tion. I know (the staff) will make it through and will put the paper on solid ground," Healy said. Kaehr already has new ideas and changes in the works. She hopes to get a workshop started next semester for the whole staff plus have regular meetings for all staff members. "I would like to take pictures of ad­ ministrators, department chairs and faculty and have those on file to use so we won't have to hunt these people down when we do a story on them," Kaehr said. In addition, Kaehr would like to see more stories of local interest on file to pull out in case of shortages of other stories plus have a team of editorial cartoonists working for the paper." "I'm really looking forward to my job. I encourage people to come out and write for the paper. It looks good on the resume and you can make a lit­ tle money in your spare time," Kaehr said. Martha Gilliam's position as Business manager is an internship available through the College of Business. Gilliam s duties will include super­ vising the sales staff, checking the advertising and taking care of the payroll and accounting statements at the end of each month. "I'm looking forward to the challenge of the position and working so closely with something supported by the university," Gilliam said. •Gilliam hopes to solve the problem of increasing revenue. I would like to get it more steady so we can have about the same number of pages each issue." "I feel real comfortable with Mar­ tha taking over. She'll do a real good job," present Business manager Angie Chesnut said. Other editor and staff positions selected were Opinion editor Paula Childers, News editor Nicole Parsons, Assistant News editor Julie Wells.

Margaret Clancy, a graduate of Niagara University in New York, will assist in advising and coordinating the activities of the Panhellenic Council and the Club Presidents Council and provide a resource for student leaders and faculty advisors to help improve the effectiveness of recognized stu­ dent organizations. "We're trying to get a communica­ tion gap bridged that presently exists between'club presidents and even the i members," Director of Student 1 Development Lee McCasky said. "I I think this person will play an important role in working with the Presidents' Council and the general I sessions we have." ASU Counseling Center open to students I don t really think this person is going to spend 25 to 30 percent of their time with the sorority system," cCasky said. "The sorority system needs a lot of attention and support during rush periods." Clancy served as a graduate office assistant and graduate residence 'r<*tor at Niagara University and a child care worker in Buffalo, New York. Clancy received her Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in Sociology in 1982 from State University College in Oswego, New York. She completed her Master's of Science in Education with a concentration in counseling from Niagara University in 1987. We felt that she was a good can­ didate, Griffin said. "She relates to students very well and she's anxious to learn." "I felt she was qualified because she had experience in higher educa­ tion and dealing with college students," Student Legal Services In­ tern Darrell Weatherford said. "It seemed she was a good match for the position." Clancy will serve in the position temporarily until June 30, 1988. The Student Development Office plans to advertise the position nationally early next year and permanently fill the position in July, 1988. "I see some good in the position," Beeker said. "The lady will do a fine job while she's here. I think she'll be an asset." "I'm delighted that I was chosen for the position. I think I have a lot to offer and I'm looking forward to meeting everyone," Clancv said. Over the past few years, the number of students seen by counselors in ASU's Counseling and Psychological Services Center in the Student Support Center has increased every semester. Associate Director of the ASU Counseling Center John Hageseth said many people think college is easy but college students in fact do experience a great deal of stress. "The trends nationally suggest students seem to be experiencing a greater number of stresses and more severe stresses," Hageseth said. Hageseth said the number of people served by the ASU counseling service each semester seems to grow as ASU students are made more aware of the services it offers. The Counseling Center offers a wide variety of counseling and student support services. The Center offers basic, individual counseling for students who feel the need to talk to someone about a prob­ lem. Problems with relationships, get­ ting in and out of relationships and having too many or too few relation­ ships is a major area that the counsel­ ing center deals with, Hageseth said. The facility also offers group counseling. Therapy groups for students with eating disorders and alcohol and substance abuse are offered on a regular basis. Hageseth said sometimes it was hard for students who wanted individual counseling to understand that a counseling group would help them more than counseling on a oneon-one basis. In addition to the counseling offered, the Center also sponsors career decisions programs to help students choose their major, biofeed­ back and stress management pro­ grams, and placement testing for the university. Hageseth said the Counseling facili­ ty also works with the ASU Wellness Center and the Office of Residence Life to provide workshops and outreach programs for residence hall students. Hageseth said each semester the facility serves about 10 percept of the mmf student population at ASU. The workshops and outreach programs co-sponsored with the Wellness Center and Residence Life reach about an additional 2,000 to 4,000 students. The Counseling Center surveys the students it sees each semester to see what help they have received. "The trends nationally suggest students seem to be experiencing a greater number of stresses and more severe stresses." —John Hageseth ASU Counseling Center "The reports that we have received indicate that feedback helps. For some it's been a major help," Hageseth said. "It was nice to have somebody objective and an objective opinion on things," one student said. "Someone who understood exactly where I was coming from without taking anyone else's opinions into consideration." "It will only work for you if you're seeking help. They're there for you but they won't take your problems Appolochion k, AIIUm Uylwi The ASU Counseling Center provides help to students. away. You have to help them. It's not a cure-all, you don't just walk in and walk out," a student added. Hageseth said during the final exam period the Center would be cooperating with the Office of Student Affairs to sponsor an exam break for students. "There are going to be some people that get real stressed out," Hageseth said. Most students could avoid prob­ lems, Hageseth said, by taking care of themselves and developing a routine to allow plenty of time for study, sleep and recreation. "It's people who try to push or cram things that seem to have more problems," Hageseth said. The Counseling Center is open from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. Students can either call in at 262-3180 or come in to have an appointment set up. Hageseth said at times the Center may get backed up and students may have to wait up to two days to be seen by a counselor.

Many other jobs fall under this category though. Construction workers, store clerks and landscapes to name - few. I really don't know much about the others but I do know about mechanics See, I was a diesel mechanic this summer Changing tires, servicing trucks and trades, and chasing parts were all part of the job. I even helped rebuild a couple of engines. I enjoyed the hell out of it too. The Appalachian As we sit here 7,000 miles away from Boone, we wonder what to write. How do we describe this little cor­ ner of China that we call home for the year? Well, there is a saying that goes: "If you are in China for a week, you can write a book and after a month an article. But if you are in China for a year, you can write nothing." Since we've been here for 3 months, we thought we'd better hurry this arti­ cle to you posthaste. Let us begin with who we are: Our names are Jeff Jones and Lora Lynn Hodges, and we are students at ASU. Along with Dr. Ernest Lane, Dr. Allen Kindt and their families, we are currently on the exchange program between ASU and the Northeast University of Technology ("Dong Bei Gong Xueyuan" or "Dong Gong" for short). "Dong Gong" is a key university in Shenyang, Liaoning Province, the People's Republic of China, and it is about the same size as ASU in student population. We have come to China (or been "deported" as some friends claim) for one year. We teach English here at the universi­ ty to support ourselves. This program successfully allows Chinese scholars access to American university degrees while also opening a way for ASU faculty and students to do research here in China. There are the basic facts about how we got here, but what is the PRC like? Frankly, until someone sees China for themselves, we don't believe they can really understand a lot of this coun­ try. We certainly did not understand many things about this country until living here for a while. In fact, there A typical day was rolling out of bed at 7:30 a.m. throwing on some cut-offs and hat and being at work between 8 a.m. and 8:30 a m I'd usually service some trailers, maybe change a flat, run down some parts and put some air brakes on a trailer. Take an hour for lunch and back to the world of grease and wrenches. Put some drive tires on a tractor, run down a short in a trailer light and help Jerome (the other mechanic) change turbos on a 290 Cummins. Anywhere from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the evening, we'd get off I was usually quite nasty by that time. Something about crawling all over trucks that makes a person really dirty. One of my favorite things was going into a bank after a particularly nasty job like changing rear ends. That's when I noticed the phenomenon that people don't really seem to appreciate mechanics. People have a tendency to look at you like you are something Spot left on the floor when you forgot to take him out. Construction workers I also noticed, get the same looks. One thing is for sure, 1 have to laugh at these people. I guess they don't appreciate where their clothes come from or how the food they put on the table gets to the stores. It s delivered on trucks and mechanics keep the trucks running. I wonder if landscapers and construction workers ever get the same feeling. Hell, what about the guys and gals who keep the campus clean cook the food, clean the residence halls and the other buildings. 1 raise my glass to you for playing such an important yet thankless part in campus life. 1 don t expect people to thank those doing that kind of work. Just try not to look at them like they are lower than life. They aren't. If it wasn't for them, we would definitely have a trashy campus and many people would be doing without or doing the 'dirty jobs' themselves. Like I said before, I enjoyed being a mechanic quite a bit and I learned tons Those are rewards enough in themselves. But I don't plan on making a career out of it.

Christmas Party sponsored by the Appalachian State University Reserve Officers' Training Corps Pershing Rifles. The event was held in the ROTC Building. The children received refreshments and gifts and a visit from Santa Claus. Captain Raul Salinas, who is the advisor of the Pershing Rifles Drill Team, was in charge of the event.

You feel obligated, are still many things about China that elude us. China is difficult to explain because of its many contradictions and paradoxes from an American point of view. First of all, China is not a rich country. Here, eight undergraduate students live in a room about the size of a normal dorm room at ASU. Even professors and high government officials usually only have two small rooms to live in with their families. Often, they must share a tiny kitchen as well as a neighborhood bath house. Once, in a class, we showed a slide of a government housing project in the States only to have one of our students ask if these were the homes of rich Americans. Since then, we have not shown that slide out of embarrassment. University social life here is also different. Here, students attend classes six days a week with around 25 hours of class per week. On their one free night, Saturday, many students may be found at an English lecture trying to improve their listening. So when someone sent us a copy of The Appalachian in which a sorority member complained about the "pathetic" lack of social activities for non-Greek students, we felt more than a little self-righteous. After a few experiences here, we have tried to learn that if we compare China and the United States, we will undoubted­ ly be disappointed in one of the cultures. It is best to appreciate each for itself instead of judging by the standards of another society. Besides sti dent life, China is very different in other ways. Often, it seems like we are back in time. The high-heeled shoes and bell-bottomed pants of the 1960's are fashionable now along with the recently un­ banned works of Sigmund Freud. In a country where Michael Jackson is almost unheard of, the old movie theme from "Love Story" and a French pianist named Richard Chap­ man are the cutting edge of Chinese pop music. Disco music is also popular here. Couples, however, are as likely to be gracefully dancing the tango or waltz than more modern steps. We have even seen couples waltzing alongside attempts at breakdancing while the "StarSpangled Banner" was played. This sight can give a whole new dimension to the term "cultural shock." The following story will hopefully give you a better idea of what China is like on a daily basis: Debra had been visiting us here in Shenyang for four short weeks. Her newfound friends all wanted to see her off at the train station after one last special night. "OK, so what do you want to do? We can take all of our luggage to the restaurant..." "It's too small," interjected Jeff. "We can ride our bicycle to dinner, return, and then take the bus to the train station," Greg, the Canadian geologist, offered. "Too much time. Let's just take the suitcases and ride the bus to the end of the route, walk to the restaurant and then walk to the station." "Are you serious?! There's not enough room to stand, much less for the suitcases on the buses," Debra argued after considerable experience with the Shenyang and Beijing bus systems. "We'll manage." These are common dilemmas in China. It has been so long since I have experienced modern conveniences, that I don't know what I'd do with a private automobile. The little Korean restaurant we go to is an all-night restaurant in the red Bringing Christmas to Christmas chaos or fips on holiday eating " °fa sense of duty, to eat every last umb, don't you?"

You'll be less tempted by other goodies if you do this. 7) Once you're at the party, try a wine spritzer instead of a mixed drink or a beer. Mix one third wine with Vj club soda, sparkling water or diet soda, and enjoy. 8) See that big, long buffet table? Don't be the first in line, plate in hand. Start eating later, and stop when everyone else does, and make yourself a vow that you will take only one trip. 9) Limit your consumption of cheese and nuts. Cheddar cheese has about 115 calories per ounce, and only 10 salted pecans, almonds, peanuts, or walnuts have about 50 calories. It can add up. 10) You have more time to eat, so make time to exercise. About three to four times a week is good. Don't be afraid to tell Aunt Martha and your Mother that you want to watch what you eat, and that doesn't mean watching it go from the plate to your mouth. Have them and all your other friends and family members help you and you can help them, too. Make it a team effort. So, remember, holiday eating doesn't have to be guilt ridden, nor does it have to be a time of martyr­ dom. Eat what you want, enjoy yourself, sample things, but keep your wits about you. Get some exer­ cise and follow a few of these tips, and you'll still be able to fit into those clothes that you were given in December by the end of January. funds, or candy, or gifts for the kids," Salinas said. He added that after the donations are given, a member of the Pershing Rifles is sent to the Social Services office to acquire the names of a number of needy children. "These children probably wouldn't have a Christmas if we didn't give them a party," Salinas said. This year the Rifles were very suc­ cessful in their fundraising efforts. "We did real well with donations this year. Many businesses gave a lot of money for the event," Salinas said. He went on to say the donations were so generous, each little boy and girl would probably receive between 25 and 30 dollars worth of gifts this year. The members of the Pershing Rifles team are very serious about helping the community, and this party is a good example of that. "My job is to advise and guide the team, they run the whole show. They plan, and organize, and set up the entire party. I don't even worry about it, because it is set up so that the com­ mander and staff are the ones that do it," Salinas said. He added that light district near the train station. It is the closest Shenyang comes to a nightlife. "Hong Kong Corner" as the foreigners call it, is an area of winding alleys with candlelit stalls selling fruit, wickedly hot noodles, and meats. Pigs feet and roasted whole sparrows complete with heads, beaks and feet are some of the delicacies served. On cold autumn nights, white-jacketed waitresses call to the busy crowds of people in their long, green army coats. Old women man little carts at the street corners selling ice cream or sweet potatoes roasted in metal drums on the carts. The crowds, cold and lights give the whole area a special feeling similar to Christmas shopping on December 24. "I just hope someone knows where we're going," someone says as we carry our luggage around yet another corner in the maze of alleys, restaurants and fruit stands. We dodge still another aggressive waitress attempting to physically persuade the "rich" foreigners to dine at her establishment. These restaurants are the children of the new economic reforms and are private enterprises where competition has returned to the socialist equation. Finally, one of our friends who had gone ahead on bicy­ cle beckons us from down the street. Here is the little Korean restaurant run by some of the large, ethnic Korean minority in Shenyang. The seven of us occupy 2A of the tiny restaurant. The other customers don't seem to mind when the familiar, friendly waitress shifts the tables to seat us. Since we are regulars she already knows our order. After help­ ing us put our luggage on top of beer crates in the corner, she brings us plates of raw ox meat and bowls of mustard, parsley, onions and sugar See CHINA Page 6 ,ROTC style everything has worked perfectly for the past four years, due to the cadets' dedication. "The cadets we have here in the program are very serious about this, and they really work hard to make the party be the best it can be," Salinas said. In the process of planning the party, the cadets get to know the families of the children. They go to the kids' homes and talk to the parents of each child. They ask the parents about what the child needs. Perhaps he or she needs a new coat or a new pair of shoes. The cadets note these things in order to provide a few necessities for each child. Then they ask each little girl and each little boy what toys they want Santa to bring them. The cadets try to give the children things they need and things they want, so they can give the kids help and happiness at the same time. In addition to the Christmas Party, the Pershing Rifles also participate in the Boone Christmas parade. And next semester, the team will march in the Mardi Gras parade in New Orleans. Later in the semester, the JROTC Drill Meet will be held here at ASU. "We invite all of the high schools from North Carolina, and some from South Carolina, to come and compete here. It is basically a drill team com­ petition, where the teams march and do their fancy routines," Salinas said. The competition helps ASU recruit people for the ROTC program. Salinas is pleased with the way the Pershing Rifles commander and staff handle activities. "In the four years that I've been here, this staff is probably the best organized that I've seen. An example is this Christmas Party. Everything has fallen in place, and they have done it all. Plans do come together here and it's done by the cadets themselves," Salinas said. He also said that's basically what ROTC is all about. "ROTC teaches one to lead, manage time, • personnel, and equipment—and the cadets get that training in anything that they do here," Salinas said. "They have done a super job." Fun for all at King's Madrigal Feaste By ANDREA ANDERSON Appalachian Slaff Wilier All you wanted to do was go to the Broyhill Inn and Conference Center this past weekend and enjoy a good meal, a little wine, and a bit of good conversation. You head over there, sit down with your friends, and you notice something a bit out of the ordinary. Quite a few people there are dressed in the fashion of Henry VIII, and they are speaking with this strange, oldfashioned British accent. They all sound a bit like Shakespeare. What's going on? You haven't stepped into a time warp. It's just the annual Madrigal Feaste, presented by the ASU Music Department. A Madrigal Feaste is a meal with entertainment provided in the form of plays and music from the sixteenth or early seventeenth century. This year, for the first time in several years, the King's Feaste was presented, il­ lustrating the times of Henry VIII. According to performer Scott Burgin of the ASU Chamber Singers, the Feaste began six or seven years ago. In recent years the Queen's Feaste has been performed and a return to the King's Feaste has been made this year. "(The Feaste is) kind of a kick off for the Christmas season," Burgin said. "It puts many people in the mood for Christmas." The guests arrive about 7 p.m and are seated by the host. The Feaste is kicked off by the Chamber Singers performing songs, most of which are done acappella, and performing a few scenes from the play. Scenes from the script and meal courses are alternated all evening, with various small ensembles performing directly in front of the guests at their tables. After the meal, the last scene begins, with final greetings to the audience, and the final prayer by the King, and more music. This year, Burgin said, the audience was asked to sing along to a rendition of the traditional song, "Greensleeves." Burgin said that all of this is done in period costumes and with British accents. It is quite a challenge for the performers to keep up the three-hour charade. "It does take some practice," he said. Burgin also said maintaining the British accent is important, because if you get "out of character" the au­ dience is quick to pick up on it.

There is no obligation or uniform and haircut requirement during the freshman and sophomore years The first year of ROTC is designed to give the student an orientation to the Ar­ my. The students also participate in various adventure training activities such as rappelling, canoeing, rifle marksmanship and hiking. The second year of ROTC covers military history along with instruction in land navigation and first aid.

Where is the breaking point in this mess? Rex, Mance, Morris and men's tennis Coach Bob Light have almost alienated themselves from the rest of the athletic department in order to fight for what they believe in—more money for the minority sports. The other coaches have accepted whatever budget was handed them. Maybe they are satisfied with their sums. Maybe they are afraid to make waves as Mance suggests. Appalachian .m by NoiKy Schvttx The App wrestlers struggled to a 19-19 tie against Liberty. Division l-AA Championship QUARTERFINALS December 5 Continued fi Continued from Page 8 he receives he receives 1from the administration. The only reason I was given for the budget cuts was that they had to cut somewhere, Morris said. "I really don't know why." Morris is also miffed by the fact that he and soccer Coach Art Rex received the lowest salary raises in the department last year. Garner is quick to reply that the reason Morris' salary was not hiked more than 2.5 percent was that part of his administrative duties as ticket manager were relieved. Therefore, Garner claims Morris has less to do although his teaching duties were increased. Morris, Mance and Rex feel that Garner is waging a personal battle with them that began a few years ago and blew up in the grievance hearings. SEMIFINALS FINALS December 12 December 19 The one thing these four coaches have in common is their excellent winning percentages over the years at ASU. Baseball, soccer and wrestling have the deepest traditions of any sport on campus. These coaches have never ex­ perienced losing and will not accept anything but the best. Unfortunately, they often have to dig in their own pocket to help supplement their own budget. Naturally, that would cause some amount of animosity toward their boss. Garner, on the other hand, is willing to sacrifice the wins in those sports for success in football and basketball. It is to the credit of Mance, Rex, Morris and.Light to do whatever it takes legally to keep their programs on the winning track. That goes for any other coaches as well. Unfortunately for them, these coaches have to accept the athletic depart­ ment s change of direction. But things are looking up. Garner has applied for, and probably will get an additional five dollars tacked on to student fees which go only to non-revenue sports. In my last issue as Sports Editor, I sincerely hope that the coaches and administration can work together to solve any wrongdoings and communication gaps that have developed. ASU 20-3 ASU 19-0 Ga.

By AL HUMAN Appalachian Columnist Earlier, I had written on Mikhail Gorbachev's policy of glasnost or openness." I had elaborated upon how glasnost is not a new doctrine in the context of Communist history. I had also enumerated upon the complete phoniness °f all the "openness" ploys "ODenness" nlnvc of used by Communist leaders in the past and by Gorbachev presently. But wbat 1 did not discuss are the philosophic reasons why genuine openness in a Communist country is an impossibility, is inherently unvarifiable, and is incompatible with Marxist-Leninist-Trotskyite philosophy. These reasons are crucial to understand if we are to resist being duped into giving up our fastdwindling individual rights. One thing not realized by those who believe m these claims of "opennessis the fact that the Communist Bloc falls entirely within that almost exclusively 20th Century Phenomenon known as totalitarianism. Totalitarianism is not 7 k3 "nasty" thing as some would have one think. One doesn't get at the nature of so hideous an evil as this by equating it with tobacco juice.

TUESDA Y, DECEMBER o, 1937 Fine, but can he shatter a glass? To the Editor: 1 just finished reading a review of a RUSH concert written by an in­ dividual bylined "AquaLung." Didn't he used to be on "SuperFriends"? Mr. Lung says he hates videos and will never pay to see RUSH again. Interestingly enough, just before this he advocates the increased consump­ tion of alcohol, a substance that makes you stupid. In my experience, RUSH fans en­ joy videos, something RUSH has in­ cluded in their shows for years. RUSH uses this original device to entertain their fans while they rest between their energetic perfor­ mances, and to lead up to the next number. Not only CAN Geddy Lee walk and chew gum at the same time, as AquaLung guesses, it might be suspected that he can also write and think at the same time. Geddy Lee is more than just a well-coordinated Outdoor Dining Overlooking Scenic Old 321 human being; he is a talented. serious musician who shouldn't be ridiculed for his abilities. And on the serious journalism font, do we really have a student at ASU named "AquaLung"? Does is paper really have a superhero on the writing staff who controls whales and squid with his telepathic powers? Do they not have videos in the ocean? Or are these articles written by a type of oxygen tank invented by Jacques Cousteau? Or maybe it's a pen name for the famous French oceanographer. So who's next? Thor Heyderthal? And I'm not even asking how another writer, SID, can make it through life without a last name. Maybe we should all use our sea powers to ignore videos we don't like and enjoy the music. Don Lockey ASU Box 11579 Doctrines Continued from Page 10 made by people tortured by the Spanish Inquisition cannot be taken at face value. Likewise, testimony of improving conditions made by citizens of Communist countries can­ not be trusted since they live with a media totally controlled by the State and notorious for putting out lies. Moreover, citizens of Communist countries cannot be expected to speak what is really on their minds when they face the threat of reduced rations, "psychiatric treatment," imprisonment, or even death in forced labor camps. Put lightly, this does tend to reduce the credibility of what is being said. But more than either of these two reasons, the reason why any policy of "openness" in a Communist country is phony is because deception and brute violence are integral to the Communist philosophy. Leon Trotsky, one of the chief members of the Russian Communist Party, put it best when he said: "In a nation where the State is the sole employer, opposition is met with slow starvation. The old biblical injunction 'who doesn't work, doesn't eat' has been replaced by a new injunction: 'who doesn't obey doesn't eat.' " 7:30 am to 10:00 pm, M-S 11 00 am to 7:00 pm. Sun. 2 Moreover, Lenin pointed out that "it is necessary to combine the strictest loyalty to the ideas of com­ munism with the necessary practical compromises, to 'tack,' to make agreements, zigzags, retreats, and so on... It is our duty as Communists to master all forms, to learn how to supplement with maximum rapidity one form by another, to substitute one for another, and to adapt our tac­ tics to every change that is called forth by something other than our class or by our efforts." And most importantly, by making men's interests the product of economic class determination and by saying that the interests of the pro­ letariat and the bourgeoisie must inevitably clash, Karl Marx effectively asserted that the end justifies, the means where class struggle was con­ cerned. With such a doctrine as this, is it any surprise that all manner of deception, injustice, and terrorism has been wrought in the name of Marxism? Is it any surprise that we are continuously duped with every treaty that arises and that more than one-third of the planet lives in total slavery in light of this? Someone put it best when they said: "the difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has l'"iits."

S " " es " blisted "»s "Right now the worst problem we have !c .• the sidewalks," Chief Investigator of Security Paul'K said. "We have always had some vandalism as far as the pamtmg on the sidewalks, but it is worse this year " The vandalism problem on campus has gone even fur ther than spray painting sidewalks. Two sculptures that were brought to ASU as a part of the Appalachian Summer Cultural Arts Program were vandalized. The sculpture located in front of Sanford Hall was ripped out of the ground and thrown into the bushes The birdhouse sculpture in front of Wey Hall suffered'even more extensive damage. Six bronze birds are missing and the poles were also damaged. Chief Justice Kim Gray said the vandalism on campus is not just restricted to spray painting sidewalks and the damage to the sculptures. 1 "We have had vandalism around the tunnel area and on the stadium drive, painting on the roads benches sidewalks and even on trees," Gray said "We have always had a problem with people straying outside the tunnel to paint. They decide to paint the tunnel and then they stray all the way up to Newland Hall " she added. ^ There have been other problems on campus such as the painting of fountains and stairways and other forms of vandalism such as students throwing rocks through the windows of the greenhouse on campus and through the windows of parked cars in the student lots. Many students have become very concerned with the ef­ fect vandalism has upon the reputation of the university and the impression it gives to visiting officials, alumni, and prospective students. *V"\ '* M M * • - * ' ' * ; * , • > %: . f •• ' • * • "I think vandalism is a sign of the student's lack of respect for their university and for themselves because the school reflects us," student Suzanne Barkett said. "I think it's really immature and I think they could channel their energies in a more productive way," another student said. The student Judiciary Committee is working with the o ice o Student Affairs to review the university policy concerning vandalism and is in the process of developing a new policy which will include harsher punishment for offenders. 1 think the students should know that the present sanc­ tion in Student Court for the debasement of university property is six months specific probation with a work sanc­ tion," Deputy Attorney General Shown Dorgan said The work sanction being that the student is responsible tor not only sandblasting his graffiti, but sandblasting and cleaning up other graffiti." "We think it's important that students be informed of this and that the students themselves take a greater amount ot pride in the appearance of the campus," Dorgan added. Vandalism has become a major problem on the ASU campus. SGA Off-Campus Affairs serves students r By SUSAN ! Appalachian Staff Writer The U University Honors program is changing its priorities for living in Coffey Hall. This new policy will be effective for housing February 1988. The current housing policy for Coffey Hall is in the changing process. "The old policy never really changed. It was just never written down before. The impression was as long as you were living here and enrolled in ASU you were guaranteed a place for the whole four years," said Resident Director Barry McClanahan. Most of the students come here on a Chancellor's Scholarship. The first two years, they take honors courses and the rest was not really required. The firstt ptcks for residence always came from people in the honors program " McClanahan added. The supervisor of this new policy is Director of the Honors program Dr Don Saunders. Dr. Saunders sent a letter to every Coffey resident informing them of the new policy changes to be made. "It is my duty, by this letter, to inform you of changes regarding priorities for living, or remaining in Coffey Hall. When Coffey was set aside for its present use a few years ago, it was designated as an Honors Residence Hall. I eel that active honors students should have priority when assignments are made in Coffey, Dr. Saunders said. Not all the students currently living in Coffey Hall fall under the Honors pro­ gram. Some students lived there from last spring when room changes were made. Appalachian Photo by Allison Loyton "Some students are not in any honors courses. They were on a waiting list to fill up the residence halls and just stayed once they moved in to Coffev " McClanahan said. Gary Greene is the chairman of the Off-Campus Affairs committee. easier for students to find apartments," Greene said. "Students can talk to their parents while home for Easter and then come to the Fair." Greene plans to have the Apart­ ment Fair annually to help students make the best choice about renting an apartment. Greene encourages off-campus students to come by and talk to the committee about any problems they have on or off campus. Lighting pro­ blems and parking lot problems are some of the problems the committee handles. "If students will voice it to us, we can talk to not only the owners but also the town council," Greene said. "We give the student a more authoritative voice." "We want the students to know if Other students, mostly upperclassmen, have completed all their honor courses m their major. These students are under special circumstances which willbe dealt with by the Resident Director or Dr. Saunders. The freshmen living in Coffey will come completely under the new policy. "The reasoning behind Dr. Saunders policy is to maintain an 'honors' level of the building as it should be and to keep up its prestige. It's for the honor students, like Justice is for athletes and Cannon is for active Greeks " McClanahan added. Some students currently living in Coffey were interviewed on their views concerning the policy change. Freshman Rhonda Hill is under the Chancellor's Scholarship.

The bill's purpose was to establish an outstanding student award to be developed by the SGA. Most nominations for the award would be taken from campus clubs and organizations, however, ail students would be eligible for the nomination. Similar to the method used in deter­ mining the Outstanding Teachers Award, the SGA cabinet would deter­ mine the winner. Off-Campus Senator Joe Melton objected to the proposal. "Criteria needs to be set so that people who deserve the award won't be passed over," Melton said. Rules Committee Gram Spear' said setting strict guidelines would be a mistake because qualified individuals may not fall into one specific category. Off-Campus Senator Lisa Anthony presented a bill which was approved by the Senate concerning smoke detectors. The bill gives the OffCampus Student Affairs Committee permission to print an article in the Off-Campus news-letter concerning the North Carolina law which requires each apartment complex unit to have a working smoke detector. The final bill approved by Senate was presented by Senator Danny Thorton. The bill requests the administration's examination of the feasibility of lighting the chancellor's tennis courts. In other action, Elections Assistant Amy Andrews was named Senator of the Semester, and Johnna Richardson was named Senator of the Month. Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Dr. David Mclntire praised the stu­ dent Senate on the numerous amount of legislation they have introduced this semester. Inter-Fraternity Council President Cam Mills presented his final report to the Senate and announced the new IFC officers. The new officers are: President Neil Linnell, Delta Chi; Vice President Todd Isaacson, Tao Kappa Eps'lon; Vice President Sigma Phi r-DarflflCtfD^ji, 'psilon; Secretary Rodney Cates, Sigma Nu; Treasurer John Stuckey, Kappa Alpha.

And yet, I am still a man. I've heard that clothes make the man. If a man's wardrobe is his "manliness," then the theory of sexual perform­ ance is out the window since it is quite obvious that clothes aren't part of the act. Then there's drugs and alcohol. I know what it's like. Drink until you can't think and toke until you croak. Yeah, right. That's the mark of a real man! Boy, the way things are these days, we must be near the end of the world as we know it. Before, 1 was always told in the midst of a crisis that it was "not the end of the world. In Watauga County, the Health Department and ASU Infirmary offer testing and treatment for STD's. Rebecca Scott, physicians assistant with the Watauga Health Department says, "People are embarrassed to come in. We deal with this kind of thing every day. The best thing to do (if you have an STD) is to come in as soon as you think you have something." The treatment at the Health Department is reasonably priced at $5 for chlamydia and herpes testing and $3 for genital warts treatment. "Quite a few" students take advantage of this service. In the infirmary there is no charge for the testing and treatment service. But it is helpful for the medical per­ sonnel to know what you may have been exposed to. "Most treatments are straight for­ ward and simple for those that can be treated," says Dr. Evan Ashby, ASU physician and member of the AIDS Taskforce, "You need to help the Appalachian Photo by Kim Howell Researching for signs of sexually transmitted diseases. doctor."

It is a wonderful ,0 fill in spare time. s a volunteer at Carolina Friend­ ship House, I participate in many dif­ ferent activities. My favorite one is playing cards. This gives me a chance STUDENT SERVICE! LEARNING PROJECT "HELPING HANDS" to talk with the members individually. I tend to play at least one game of cards everytime I go. I also go for walks, help with the cooking, go on shopping trips, provide transporta­ tion to appointments, play the piano, and just carry on conversations. Participating in activities with the members fills me up with emotion. I think the best feeling in this world, next to love, is knowing that you helped make someone happy, The routine for the members may get monotonous everyday, so it is nice for them to get out and do some shopping or go for walks. Sometimes one of the members may ask me to just take them for a ride. Whenever I take them anywhere they are always thankful and appreciative. That makes me feel so good and wonderful inside. It is hard to believe that something as little as taking them for a ride will make them happy. I may have a terrible day in classes and visit Carolina Friendship House and return home feeling 100 percent better. I tend to forget my own —J troubles when I am there. To make my day worthwhile is to make some­ one smile. And that is what I feel like volunteer work is all about. It is giv­ ing time to someone even if it is to just talk for a few minutes. It does not take much to help someone. At Carolina Friendship House, even though all I may do one day is sit and talk with them, it makes them feel better and it also makes my day.

As the drama unfolded at Colby, Southern Cal and University of Minnesota students protested the appearance of CIA recruiters on their campuses. In October, anti-CIA protests occurred at Duke and the universities of California-Santa Barbara, Iowa, Washington and Vermont. Students were arrested during the conflicts at Santa Barbara, Iowa and Vermont. Events almost turned especially bloody at Vermont. Vermont student Charley MacMartin had arranged for an interview with the CIA, intending to throw a bag of blood at the recruiter to protest the agency's covert activities. But when the Vermont student pulled out the bag, the recruiter allegedly said "If that blood goes anywhere, I'm going to knock your front teeth in." MacMartin hit the recruiter with a lecture about intellectual integrity instead. �6 THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDA Y, DECEMBER 3, 1987 Fiction Spotlight Heroics cost detective his life?

COMMENT ADVANTAGE Many people don't understand how the Apr* keep winning despite their poor offense which finished next to last in the SC Last week against Richmond, ASU managed 135 rushing yards, 45 below their average, but better than their three previous outings The Mountaineers need to come up with some gimmick to get the running gome goinq Coach Sparky Woods has been setting up the "J" wi,h some ear|y posses. QB Bobby Fuller's passing may be the key to opening up the running game. Over the last three years Georgia Southern has been one of the nation's most prolific running teams. This year the Eagles have rushed for 271.4 yards a game led by running back Joe Ross (1104 yards) and QB Ray Gross (702). The Eagles will option the Apps to death if Woods doesn't have his Apps prepared for the run-and-shoot offense. Running I Neither team will beat you with its passinq attack. Under Fuller, the Apps have been more successful, but they returned to their old ways last week passing for just 58 yards Once again, look for ASU to hit their backs a lot Georgia Southern passes even less than ASU. Gross is 49-104 with five interceptions and two touchdowns. He averages 11.2 yards per completion. If the weather is poor again Saturday, neither team may throw the ball 15 times. Passing If ASU's defense is not the best in l-AA foot­ ball, then perhaps Georgia Southern's is. The Apps caused four Richmond turnovers and stand +17 for the year. ASU's defensive ends (Anthony Downs and Dennis Sanders) and out­ side linebackers will be put to the test against the Eagles' option. ASU has defensed the option well this year but they haven't seen it run like Georgia Southern runs it. The Eagles give up only 113.5 yards rushing and 174.1 passing. Teams simply have not been able to run on them. LB Flynt Matthews is their leading tackier with 106 total. DL James Carter wreaks havoc in opponents' backfields with seven sacks this year. CB Terry Young leads the team with five interceptions. Defense Both teams own great kicking games. ASU punter Tony Cox averages almost 39 yards a punt while Georgia Southern's Terry Harvin averages 39.0. Harvin has only punted 34 times this year, compared to Cox' 69 attempts. ASU's Bjorn Nittmo and the Eagles' Tim Foley are two of the nation's best. Nittmo is 19-24 on field goals and 24-25 on PATs. Foley is 20-27 and 27-28, respectively. Anytime the Eagles move on ASU's side of the field, they are in Foley's range. His longest is 63 yards. Harvin has not had a punt blocked, but then again, he hasn't faced the Black team. Kicking Intangibles Just about anytime the Apps are in Conrad, they should be favored in this category. ASU hasn't lost since the playoffs last year and have not lost a regular season game in Conrad in 17 tries. Georgia Southern is 9-0 in playoff competi­ tion. They obviously know what it takes to win since they are two-time national champions.

"Matthews is a good player," Woods said. "He is a full-speeder and their leading tackier." Hodge is probably the best player on their defense but has been injured some during the season. "He plays the run and pass well," said ASU quarterback Coach Donnie Kirkpatrick. "He is a man." The secondary is talented and will try to confuse opponents by giving them many different looks. The safeties are Oliver Davis and Taz Dix­ on, and the corners are brothers Terry and Nay Young. Nay Young is the premiere player in the secondary. He might be the best athlete on the team, and doubles as the punt return specialist. The Eagles are very sound on special teams with All-American Tim Foley handling the kicking and Terry Harvin doing the punting. "Foley may be the best in the coun­ try," Woods said. "He's kicked 7 field goals of 50 or more yards." 9- 6 .612 �THE APPALACHIAN PORTIA A. HEALV.

Rudolph ASU Box 5455 ALL YOU FLORIPIANS CAN WIPE THAT SMUB LOOK OFF THOSE TAN FACES, THANK YOU. See GLASNOST '' �THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1987 New WASU acquires followers By LEATHA FIELDS Appalachian Columnist 1 would like to thank Art Skibbe for his letter, "New WASU format deserves promotion." It's about time the new AOR— laSh alternative—progressive for­ mat started receiving something other than complaints. Since this is my first year at ASU, I knowledge of what the have no previous format(s) was (were) like. I have heard horror stories about it, though. I discovered WASU purely through the by accident, flipping radio dial when I first moved in durjng August. I have always been an alternative music fan, but the town where I live doesn't have a large enough demand for its own alter­ native music station, so the people who enjoy this type of music have no l^e'r musical taste. I was delighted to know that there was a nla '°h uWithin receiv'n8 range that played the music I had not been able to find anywhere else, as were many Asy1y ma,es and friends at though, I've been hearing a lot of gripes levelled at the station, main y concerning the supposed lack of variety offered. People say, "Why can t WASU play more Top 40/heavy metal/oldies? Not everyone likes that alterative crap." True, and I'm not saying that everyone should like that alternative crap. What I am saying is tnat it the people who are doing all he mud slinging would actually listen to the station more than ten minutes a day, they would realize that WASU oes recognize the existence of other forms of music, and promotes them. WASU features a beach music show, a black music show, and oldies show every day, a reggae show, and their regular airplay is sprinkled with Glenn Frey and the Rascals amidst Squeeze and Echo and the Bunnymen. Not only that, but there are already myriads of Top 40 stations, classic rock stations that are within Boone's receiving range. I guess what I'm get­ ting at is this—IF YOU DONT LIKE WASU, LISTEN TO ANOTHER STATION!! But alternative music fans do like the format, and we are appreciative that the people at the sta­ tion are trying to promote "higher listening." If the people that criticized WASU would listen a little more often and a little less subjectively, they would realize that their com­ plaints are unwarranted. Parking is everyone's problem To the Editor: Last night when I left my office for the Lovill Hall parking lot, I discovered five cars parked in a row down the middle of the lot, blocking every car legally parked on either side. As I watched, a sixth car pulled up and parked beside the dumpster. This has happened three or four times in the Lovill and Coffey lots this semester. Fortunately my wife was able to pick me up and bring me home. Apart from personal inconven­ ience, I am disturbed by the lack of consideration such T-parking in­ dicates. The assumption seems to be "Anything goes after 5 p.m. I will park anywhere I want and presume that no one wants to leave." Such assumptions are selfish and juvenile. Parking is a common problem which requires consideration for all our rights, including the right to leave the lot when we want to do so. We owe each other that much at least. Richard H. Rupp Professor of English Glasnost Continued from Page 12 i The policy of glasnost or "open­ ness" which Gorbachev espouses is historically not anything new or revolutionary. Between 1921 and 1927, Lenin and later Stalin backed away from implementing Communist machinations and briefly allowed such things as free market profit incentives, private ownership of a marginal degree, and freedom for opposition art groups and publishers. However, as Mikhail Tsypkin put it in the Heritage Foundation publication Backgrounder (March 20, 1987): "Once the Soviet economy had recovered from the revolutionary excesses, Stalin launched his political terror to strengthen his personal power and that of the Communist party." And in case one attributes this solely to the transition from Lenin to Stalin, observe also that another such hiatus of openness occurred exclusively within Stalin's regime in 1938. Anticipating that Hitler would extend his booty derived out of the Non-Aggression Pact from Poland to the Soviet mainland, Stalin braced for war by temporarily allowing freedom of religious worship as a means of uniting the home-front. Churches were no longer harassed and Stalin's own speeches were chock full of references to God. However, once the war was over, Stalin resumed his reign of terror over his feifdom with a vengeance that resulted in a total of about 20 million deaths. Between 1958 and 1964, Nikita Khrushchev distanced himself from S.alin and allowed token cultural thaws all the while placing missiles in Cuba and in light of the fact that he was party to the invasion of Hungary ln 1956 which suppressed Hungary's I rebellion against Communist tyranny. ,n ^ed China'a Mao Tse-tung , Jj's own variety of glasnost called £ Hundred Flowers" program in which Mao proclaimed: "Let a hun­ ted flowers bloom and let a hundred ^hools of thought contend." owever, according to a study I Prepared by the Internal Security Sub­ committee of the U.S. Senate Th 'ijrary Committee in 1971 called e Human Costs of Communism In jna, Mao had "exterminated more I «, lnese than were killed in the entire .q3' a8a'nst Japan."

'V ' H AIDS panelists discuss student risks By J SHAVER A»*rMii Suit WrHtr §f | - -< | '<$(«•%* ">>*»$-* v /v ^ ASU's AIDS Task Force presented a seminar on the AIDS virus and its transmission Wednesday, November 18. Professor of microbiology Dr. Francis Montaldi discussed what the Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome virus is. "The virus actually preys on the immune system, turning it down or off, creating other side effects that are what we recognize as the immuno-deficiency syndrome," he said. Montaldi said it is not the AIDS virus itself that kills. The virus destroys the immune system and makes it possible for other infec­ tions to come in.

Strippers At Penn State The top two officials of the University of Penn­ sylvania have warned campus fraternities not to hire female strippers to perform at rush functions again. Both the Zeta Beta Tau and Alpha Chi Rho houses had strippers perform at rush functions the first week of October. At the ZBT event, students reportedly engaged in sexual acts with the performers. One pledge said he felt pressured to participate in order to get a bid to join the house. Dr. Robert McDonough, a consultant with the Centers for Disease Control, also spoke at the seminar. "What we're really looking at here is a disease of the lifestyle," he said. "We've begun to develop a soap opera men­ tality, a trampling bed mentality." McDonough also talked about the effects of AIDS on the immune system. He said the cells destroyed by the virus are also those that kill cancer cells, therefore AIDS victims have a high incidence of cancer. •'Madrigal Feaste" Dress Rehearsal Dress rehearsal for "Madrigal Feaste" will be held on Wednesday, December 2. The cost of the event is $2 per person and tickets are available at the BMC Music Office. For more information, call Robert Jones at 262-6450. Booth For Off-Campus Students The SGA Off-Campus Affairs Committee will set up a booth for off-campus students from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. each Tuesday on the first floor of the Student Union and each Thursday at the entrance to the cafeteria. All off-campus students are encour­ aged to stop by if they have questions. I U. Chicago Ousts Student Government All 50 officers of the University of Chicago student government have been ousted in the wake of a political scandal that has rocked the campus. The scandal started when student body President Kathryn Sampeck admitted to stuffing ballot boxes while serving as a poll watcher. Sampeck said she was retaliating for what she considered election violations by Vice President Jim Jacobsen. Jacobsen, meanwhile, was ordered to leave office October 28 by a student committee that learned he wasn't enrolled tfjis fall. In addition, the committee discovered that one or two of the 200 candidates didn't have enough signatures on their candidacy petitions. "Designated Driver Program" AAA Carolina Motor Club has developed a "Designated Driver Program" this year in hopes of getting drinking drivers off the road and bringing a further decrease in the number of alcohol-related deaths and injuries. Under this program, one member of a party-going group serves as the driver and consumes no alcoholic beverages. The establishment where a particular party is being held is asked to provide non-alcoholic drinks to the driver at no charge. Designated driver stickers can be found at most places where alcohol is served. Third Annual Mistletoe Race The Integon Corporation of Winston-Salem and the YMCA of Greater Winston-Salem have annouced the Third Annual Mistletoe Integon/ VMCA Road Races. The 10,000 meter race and a half-marathon event are scheduled for Saturday, December 12, at the Central YMCA in Winston-Salem. Both races will start at 9 a.m. Participants will be grouped according to sex and a8e, with 10 divisions. Race fees are $8 until jipecember 9th and $10 after that date.

Resource the ASU "We are also seeing that the narcotics heroin and marijuana are suppressing the immune system so that those people that are infected with the virus, but might be holding it at bay, are going to be much receptive to the virus than they normally would be," McDonough said. Director of ASU's Health Services and cochair of ASU's AIDS Task Force Dr. Evan Ashby spoke on preventive measures. "For a number of years I've been talking about sexually transmitted diseases, talking about contraception and now talking about AIDS and it's the same little lecture," Ashby said. "I just change the title, because how you keep from getting one is very much how you keep from getting the other." "It's time to get back down to commitment, one to one. This is a long term commitment, an honest and a faithful commitment," he ad­ ded. "You can get condoms for free at the infir­ mary," he said. Ashby added that anyone who thinks they might have come in contact with the AIDS virus should make an appointment with the health department and get the free test. See AIDS PaRe 3 Collegians are at high risk in AIDs epidemic (CPS)—College students may be the next most likely population to be at risk of con­ tracting AIDS, the head of a major national campus health group is warning on a national speaking tour. The reason, says Richard Keeling, health director at the University of Virginia and chairman of the American College Health Association (ACHA) AIDS task force, is that students are more likely to be sexually pro­ miscuous and, in youthful feelings of-immortality, less likely to practice safe sex. In June, moreover, U.S. Surgeon General C. Everett Koop warned Congress of a potential "explosion" in the number of teens who get AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome), a fatal virus that destroys the body's immune system and renders the victim vulnerable to otherwise-innocuous germs. The disease is spread by contaminated blood transfusions, using dirty needles to inject drugs and some kinds of sexual contact. And when students get to campus, ex­ plained ACHA spokeswoman Ann Higley, "It's a period of exploration" when many students experiment with sex and drugs for the first time. "It's their first taste of freedom, and often there's an unwillingness to take respon­ sibility." Some colleges have tried to warn students by distributing flyers, installing condom vending machines to promote "safe sex" and, like the University of Massachusetts and Mount Holyoke, Smith, Amherst and Hamp­ shire colleges did September 29, stage elaborate programs to educate campus residents about the disease. Schools- seem to be announcing new AIDS efforts weekly. Just last week, for example, Michigan State said it would start testing students anonymously for AIDS, while the University of Illinois said it might require any student it suspected of being a health threat to take an AIDS test. In Pennsylvania, meanwhile, Millersville University set up an AIDS Review Board to plan how to deal with the disease on campus in the future. Still, the ACHA's Keeling thinks colleges are doing a bad job teaching students about AIDS. More than three-quarters of the nation's campuses have done little or nothing to teach students, he figured. "We're starting to talk in terms of obliga-1 tions, not options. AIDS education is the moral and ethical obligation of colleges, irrespective of whatever discomfort with the topic trustees or alumni or the community may feel," Keeling said. "We're starting to talk in terms of obligations, not op­ tions. AIDS education is the moral and ethical obligation of colleges, irrespective of whatever discomfort with the topic trustees or alumni or the com­ munity may feel." —Richard Keeling The Department of Education also has ignored its responsibility to develop AIDS education programs, Keeling charged. "In an ideal world the Department of Education would have taken substantial responsibility for developing AIDS education policy, but that support has been absent." Higley reported only 75 students have been diagnosed as having AIDS-related illnesses, but added the disease has a long latency period, meaning others may be infected and not know it. At a Boston AIDS conference last week, however, several doctors claimed the risk of catching the virus through heterosexual contact is still relatively slight. The chance of-contracting AIDS from a single heterosexual contact, reported Dr. James Goedert of the National Cancer Institute, may be less than one in a million. But Goedert quickly added the report encourages "a false sense of security," and that ignoring "safer sex" practices can be fatal. "Only" four percent of the reported AIDS cases in the U.S. were transmitted through hetersexual contact, and half the heterosex­ ual victims were born in Africa or Haiti, where—because veneral diseases and conse­ quently open sores in the genital area are more common, AIDS seems to be passed more readily between men and women. Dr. Jeffrey Harris of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology said. Ninety percent of the reported AIDS cases in the U.S. have involved homosexual or bisexual men or drug users who shared dirty needles, Harris said. Rose speaks on oppression in South Africa By JULIE WELLS Appalachian Slaff Writer Anti-Apartheid activist and minister Vernon Rose said South Africa is still suffering under the present state of emergency imposed by the white South African leaders under the Apartheid system. Vernon Rose, a native of Capetown South Africa, presented two lectures on Wednesday, November 18 AIDS Changing Student Sex Habits entitled "Liberation and Black Theologies" and "Despite the Silence: Continuing Struggle Against Students are pursuing the opposite sex the way Apartheid in the Present State of Emergency." 'hey used to, University of Wisconsin journalism students have found. In response to a journalism department survey, a "We as black South Ajrtcans will majority of Wisconsin-Madison students said fear of fight, it might seem that we will lose. AIDS had convinced them to change their sexual habits. We will fight, we will die, but as Fifty-six percent of the students said they used history demonstrates we will also condoms more than they used to.

"There are certain other infections that you normally cannot get, called opportunistic diseases," he said. "So, we don't look at AIDS as a single disease." "Most of the diseases that you die from when you get AIDS will be those secondary diseases," he added. "It is caused by the transmission of body fluids. When our sexual mores get around to the point where we're rubbing eyeballs, we'll see it transmitted that way," he said. He added that many other sexually transmit­ ted diseases such as syphilis are associated with AIDS. "The silence does not mean that South Africa has quietly slipped into a Democracy and it does not mean that South Africa has abandoned its Apar­ theid policies," Rose said. "In fact, as the facts will show, they (the government) use the silence of the press so that they can continue committing atrocities against the South African people." Rose said this silence exists not only in South Africa but also in the United States and all over the Westerif World as well "What does this silence mean? Does it mean thai all is well in South Africa? I would say definitely no," Rose said. For several years the government of South Africa has enforced a state of emergency upon the South African people. About 300 children bet\veen the ages of 16 and 18 are being held in detention and nearly 300,000 peo­ ple have been arrested for not wearing I.D.s under the state of emergency. Under these conditions, the police and the army have been given extensive powers so the army has the authority to arrest or detain a person without being accountable to anyone. "What the South African government would hate to admit is that detentions obviously have become the strongest wing or the strongest tentacle of this present state of emergency," Rose said. "Along with this state of emergency has been this massive clampdown upon individuals, upon organizations, that show their dissent or their resistance of the South African government." Rose said there were many events which led to this state of emergency in South Africa. In March, 1985 the South African people attempted to commemorate a holiday which led to the killing of several young children participating in the commemoration events. The killings led to a funeral in that same month which like most funerals in South Africa, Rose said, did not go down peacefully. During the funeral 34 people were killed.

In March, 1985 the South African people attempted to commemorate a holiday which led to the killing of several young children participating in the commemoration events. The killings led to a funeral in that same month which like most funerals in South Africa, Rose said, did not go down peacefully. During the funeral 34 people were killed. Rose said people all over the coun­ try started showing their solidarity for those who died. "There were mass stay aways from school, there were mass political actions organized by both the United Democratic Front as well as the National Forum in support of those who died," he added. By mid 1985 the government was having extreme difficulty in putting a stop to the many forms of resistance all over the country. In June, 1986 problems had not stopped and the government found the people of South Africa to be even "South African troops and armored vehicles are to be seen everywhere in South Africa and black townships are virtually under seige by the South African government." — Vernon Rose Capetown South Africa more defiant than they had been in the past. "They had to deal with a much more radical group of young people who completely disregarded and disrespected this thing called the state of emergency," Rose said. The government was then forced to extend the state of emergency which included practically all major cities in South Africa. "I visited South Africa in January. 1986 and the effects of 1985 was to be seen all over South Africa's townships," Rose said. "South African troops and armored vehicles are to be seen everywhere in South Africa and black townships are virtually under seige by the South African government," he added. Rose also said that despite oppres­ sion from the South African govern­ ment the people of South Africa would continue to retaliate. "We as black South Africans will fight, it might seem that we will lose," Rose said. "We will fight, we will die, but as history demonstrates we will also ultimately win."

"Personally, how many times do I want to see Big Ben strike twelve or see the Tower of London?" Dr. Rupp said. "This trip will give a more broader experience." While visiting each of the six coun­ tries, Dr. Rupp will insist that each student eat as the locals do. He asserts the food is great even though it may not be what most students are use to. For entertainment, students will spend an evening at a Greek tavern, see a Glockenspiel performance in Munich, take a night cruise of Paris and see two plays. Plus many nights will be free nights where the students choose their own entertainment. Dr. Rupp suggests that students planning to take the trip should bring along some evening wear (not necessarily formal) to wear to these events. The trip consists of many walking tours through cities such as Rome, London, Rothenberg and Paris. "Blue jeans are fine for most of the trip. Comfortable clothes are best," Dr. Rupp said. Students are reminded that they should bring only one suit­ case with two or three basic outfits.

One year a student had a collapsed lung while hiking in England and had to be hospitalized for five days. There have been no encounters with antiAmerican hostility. "They want you to like them. They may not agree with the U.S. foreign policy, but they are interested in talk­ ing to you," Dr. Rupp said. "And fortunately many speak English." Dr. Rupp recommends learning a few phrases in another language for better communication with the locals. He also stresses that the students who sign up for the trip have good physical health. Tomorrow in the Student Union from 1-4 p.m. there will be a Study Abroad Fair. Group leaders from various trips will be on hand to give details, answer questions and show slides on each study abroad program. There will also be an organizational meeting for the Europe trip Tuesday, December 8 at 7:30 p.m. in 206 San­ ford.

"adto* "« Braramacical 10 iump me ia ,he*» rsiS* pm,'"'' Interested in cruising the Greek Isles, or strolling through Rome, or climbing the Eiffel Tower, and getting credit for it? Next summer, ASU International Studies and the English Department are sponsoring a 28 day trip through Europe, May 15 to June 12. ASU In­ ternational Studies Chairperson Dr. Richard Rupp and Professor Bill Wolff will guide ASU students, facul­ ty, alumni, and friends through Greece, Italy, Austria, Germany, France and England. The tour costs $2504 which covers tuition, insurance, ASU fees, transportation to and from Europe, admissions, lodging, breakfast and dinner. A few scholarships will be available to help lower the cost. The only things not covered in the $2504 are lunch and personal spen­ ding money. Dr. Rupp estimates $100 a week should be enough for personal costs. To receive six hours of credit in English, each student must keep a dai­ ly journal and must prepare a 20 minute presentation on an assigned author. Two weeks after returning each student must turn in a summary paper of the trip. The two courses in the program are The Odyssey of Western Literature 3530, and Major Western Authors 3531. Both of these 'courses can be used to satisfy the humanities requirements or can be us­ ed toward an English major or minor. The trip is geared toward English majors but students from any depart­ ment on campus are invited to come along. "As of now I have 12 students sign­ ed up to go on the excursion," Rupp said, "but we can take up to 24 students, and we would like to have as close to 24 as we can." Interested students need to contact Rupp in 217 Sanford Hall to receive an application form and to turn in a deposit of $835. The deposit should be in by December 1, but students will be accepted until February 1 when the balance is due. "Students need to make up their minds, see the appropriate professors and get their deposits in, because after tier February the $2504 fee is n guaranteed and may go up," Drl Rupp said.

They also Place 100 match cards as far "It's just unbelievable. It was a great idea." NWA Referee Tommy Young To discourage the crowd from misbehaving, especially along the lines of throwing cups and ice at the wrestlers while moving towards the ring, the TKE's had twenty ASU foot­ ball players act as security escorts for the wrestlers. With people like player James Hardman standing nearby, most of the crowd thought twice about throw­ ing something. In case of trouble,' the players were there to escort the trou­ ble makers out. "I hope nothing serious happens," Hardman commented before the matches. NWA referee Tommy Young sang praises of the security, especially in view of the crowd's obnoxious behavior last time. "It's just unbelievable," he said. "It was a great idea," he added on having football players for escorts. Many in the crowd were quite enthusiastic about seeing the matches. As soon as he saw the advertisements, wrestling fan Terry Ballard from Avery County responded, "I said I was going.' According to Ballard, the NWA is the best wrestling alliance because of the talent. It seems as if the least liked wrestlers are the Four Horsemen, listening to Ballard's commentary. He called them "smart-alecks" and said they didn't behave "like good sports­ men." Ballard said he believes only about 10 percent of the show is real. "They practice this crap, all the time," he said. Why see wrestling? "For the sport of it," Donna Ballard, Terry's wife said. "It's kind of like a traveling circus," Terry add­ ed. How do they handle people making fun of them and their sport? "I don't care what nobody and Varsity Gym stylin' in ^ thinks," Terry said. Wrestler Johnny Weaver said the typical wrestling fan has changed over the years. He said it used to seem like they all drove pick-up trucks and listened to country music. Now there is a wider range of fans, with them be­ ing younger and having a variety of different tastes. There were even a few in the crowd wearing evening attire, with coats and ties and fancy dresses. Ricky Santana agreed with Weaver's analysis. "There's all different types," he • said. Stan Lane of the Midnight Express referred to wrestling as "a big, big cross-section." Wrestlers work hard at what they do. Both the physical demands of be­ ing in the ring and travelling most of the year takes a toll on their bodies. When asked what could lighten the load, Santana replied, "Nothing could make wrestling easier." Most wrestlers, like Santana, "will con­ tinue as my body holds out." What makes a wrestler a baby-face, or popular with the fans? "You don't even know why," Weaver said. What makes one hated, or a heel, like the Four Horsemen, or the Mid­ night Express? "Everyone hates a liar or a bragger," Weaver said. How does a wrestler respond to those, like the Ballards, who say the majority, if not all of it, is acting? Santana responded, "Then why are they here?" Collegiate Network controversy RAINY DAY BLUES: As these students will tell you it's no fun in Boone when the weather is grim. They are just pleased that the snow has not set in... yet. As they wander the ASU campus, umbrel­ la in hand, one has to admire their spunk and determination in get­ ting to class. But, there are some rainy day activities to keep students occupied. Splashing through puddles and counting wiggly worms on the sidewalk are two favorites. Don't forget dashing across College Street to avoid "the big splash" from pass­ ing AppalCARTs. (CPS)-- The Collegiate Network is coming! So is the Collegiate Network and the Collegiate Network. In fact, all three are either here or on their way. Two college-oriented news outlets, one already in operation, the other in the planning stages, share the "Col­ legiate Network" title, and both say they're entitled to the name. "I don't see any sense in using that name. I don't want people confusing us with the conservative group." To complicate matters further, a third Collegiate Network was also in the works, though the publisher now says he'll drop the name to avoid con­ flict. The Collegiate Network already in business is operated by the Institute for Educational Affairs (IEA), a Washington D.C.-based conservative think tank that provides seed money for right-wing student newspapers. The Washington Collegiate Net­ work also coordinates advertising ef­ forts and syndicates an opinion col­ umn by Secretary of Education William Bennett to its 34 member newspapers at Georgetown, Dart­ mouth, Cornell and the universities of Texas and Iowa, among others. The IEA began its campus publishing activities in 1980, IEA President Leslie Lenkowsky said, and consolidated those efforts under the name "Collegiate Network" in 1986. "That gives the IEA the rights to the name," Lenkowsky said. In California, the other Collegiate Network plans to begin publishing a slick, USA Today-style monthly call­ ed "U. The National College Newspaper" in February. The paper will feature the best student jour­ nalism and already has 200 campuses signed on. "We're conscious of the incredible resources and great talent of college newspapers and wanted to present that in a national forum,' publisher Sheena Paterson-Berwick said. The oaper will try to attract national advertisers to buy space in it. The California Collegiate Network, Paterson-Berwick added, did a search of registered trademarks before settl­ ing on its moniker. Her organization already has sold advertising, con­ tacted student newspapers about a distribution network, and produced a prototype under the Collegiate Net­ work name. It would be difficult for the newspaper to find a new name this late in the game. But if it doesn't Lenkowsky said, "we'll consider legal recourse." "We'll have to talk to them," Paterson-Berwick said, " and see what this is all about." Bart Edwards, a Denver publisher also planning to distribute a national college newspaper, was set on using the "Collegiate Network" title for his organization as well. But when Lenkowsky contacted him about the conflict, he agreed to find another name. • "I don't see any sense in using that name," Edwards said. "I don't want people confusing us with the conser­ vative group. 1 �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDA Y, DECEMBER 1, 1987 Russian Studies minor is offered By AMEE SMITH of the History Department, a minor in Russian, Soviet and East European After 18 years of the faculty urging studies is good for those people who the university officials to offer a would like to go into foreign policy, minor in Russian, Soviet and East history or international business, or European studies, this year it is on the simply have an interest in the subject. books.

Appalachian Features Writer Fiction Spotlight 1 Could 1987 be the year of the voluntc By DIANNE BRIDGES Speciil to the Appalachian It seems as though every generation has it's own "cause." In the sixties, the anti-war effort was the major thrust of student ef­ forts. Then, the seventies were con­ sidered to be the "me" generation. With the nineties nearing, what will our decade be remembered as? The age of the Yuppie? Maybe not. Campuses across the United States are seeing a renewal of interest in stu­ dent volunteerism. The popularity of such projects as Live Aid and USA For Africa prove that students have moved away from the "me" genera­ tion and are becoming more active in world and local affairs. Campus Outreach Opportunity League (COOL) was begun in 1985 by a Harvard graduate fresh out of col­ lege. Just two years since its foun­ ding, COOL already has offices in Washington.

"What?" mouthed the secretary very slowly. Then she thought to reopen the window. "All right. What do you want?" Colleen giggled a little. A tear ran down her right cheek.

Punting miscues led directly to 13 ASU points and all but sealed the game early. The Spiders could not move the ball on their first possession and were forced to punt from their 31-yard line. ASU linebacker Mickey Ray shot through the middle to bat down Austin NeuhofFs kick and Quincy Bethea recovered the loose ball on the Spider 17. The Apps could not move the foot­ ball and were forced to settle for a 32-yard Bjorn Nittmo field goal to go ahead 3-0. The Mountaineers have now block­ ed 23 kicks in their last 37 outings. The Apps have also blocked eight punts this season tying the school record set in 1986. "I think that anybody that plays us would have to be concerned (about blocked punts)," Woods said, "we have proven that we can do it. If anybody on the punting team breaks down then we have a shot at it." "I was in there to block and free up someone else on our side," Ray said. 'Their guy kind of closed down and I go free so I just ran in there and blocked it." The Apps success in the punt rushing department caused problems __ for the Spiders as the next three snaps from center were bobbled, giving ASU excellent field position. Following the kickoff Richmond mounted a drive to midfield where the App defense stiffened and forced the Spiders to kick. Whether it was the rain or the in­ timidation factor, the snap from center was fumbled by Neuhaff and Nate Young recovered it for the Apps on the Richmond 30. "The kicking game was the turning point," Woods said, "we believe in it. A lot of people talk it and then don't practice it. It is a credit to our players and our coaching staff." On the first play following the fum­ ble quarterback Bobby Fuller drop­ ped back, eluded linebacker Jack Henrietta, and tossed a 23-yard pass to fullback Doug Beaty. Two Tim Sanders runs later the Apps found the endzone for an early second quarter lead of 10-3. Once again the Spiders could not move the football and were forced to drop back into a precarious punting formation. For the second consecutive time the connection wasn't right from center to punter and the snap was fumbled on the Richmond eight. An illegal motion penalty cost the Apps seven points as they were once again held to a Nittmo field goal, this time from 27 yards out. One of the keys for the Apps was holding explosive Spider runningback Erwin Matthews to 93 yards. Matthews entered the contest rank­ ed fourth in I-AA in all-purpose yards ' ' (172.3 ypg), eight in rushing (112.2 ypg), and 18th in scoring (7.3 ppg). Matthews had also exploded for six touchdowns against Massachusettes earlier in the year. "We didn't let him break the big one," Woods said. The weather also caused some pro­ blems for the Mountaineers on the dreary, rainy Saturday afternoon. Leading 13-3 early in the fourth quarter the Apps had a chance to put the game away with a second and goal at the Spider four. Beaty however fumbled a pitch from Fuller and the drive was stopped. "The ball was slippery and you had to concentrate on holding it," Beaty said. "You can't worry about things that you can't control. You can't let the weather bother you." Beaty was the Apps major offen­ sive weapon on Saturday as he finish­ ed with 117 total yards including 30 yards and a touchdown on the gameclinching drive in the fourth quarter. The win gives the Apps 10 wins in a season for the first time in school history and Woods said there was cer­ tainly a little added pressure in Satur­ day's contest. "Anytime you're in the playoffs there is pressure," Woods said. "If you lose then you go recruit, if you win then you play again." The Mountaineers will get to play again this Saturday as they host twotime defending I-AA national Cham­ pion Georgia Southern. "I have a lot of respect for Coach Russell and his football team," Woods said. "Most people die pcuyic uic Hokies down Apps in Sheraton Classic .. They are better than we are, Apke said bluntly. "It is very difficult to open the season against a team that puts defensive pressure on like Duke does." The Blue Devils got the momemtum midway through the first half on their full-court defensive pressure. The Apps turned it over several times just attempting to inbounds the ball. Duke s over-play, man-'to-man defense kept the inexperienced Moun­ taineers rattled and never allowed them to successfully Tun their halfcourt offense. "Our kids really hustled tonight,' Krzyzewski said. "We made some big-time plays. We accomplished what we wanted to by playing hard for 40 minutes. "They made it very difficult for us to run our offense. Coach K is a great defensive coach," Apke added. The Apps' backcourt duo of Kemp Phillips and Rodney Peel, along with freshman swingman Pat Lyons, car­ ried the load as ASU held its own in the final half. The 6-6 Lyons made good on both of his three-point attempts, while Phillips had to weasel inside and out for his team-high 13 points. Lyons finished with 12, while Peel and Gib­ son added 10 apiece. Rebounding was ASU's greatest weakness last year and the shortcom­ ing reared its head again against the taller and more physical Blue Devils. Duke outrebounded ASU 36-22 and the Mountaineers' leading rebounders, Ronnie Christian and Sanford Killian, collected just four each. "One of our goals coming into the game was to neutralize them on the boards, ' Apke said. "But they were bigger than us at every position." Gibson was thought to be the Mountaineers' answer in the middle and will be in the future, but he managed only two rebounds in his ASU MP Christian Miller Gibson Peel Phillips Lyons Holmes Stewart Ward Allen Person Killian Falkner Totals Ferry FT R A F TP 23 3 - 6 0 - 0 4 1 1 6 21 1 - 3 0 - 0 1 0 2 2 23 3- 3 4- 4 2 0 3 10 23 3 - 9 3 - 4 1 4 3 10 25 5- 8 2- 2 2 2 3 13 18 5 - 7 0 - 0 2 1 0 12 12 1 - 2 0 - 0 1 1 4 2 12 1- 2 0- 0 2 1 4 2 12 2 - 4 2 - 3 1 1 1 6 6 1- 2 0- 0 0 0 0 2 11 3 - 3 1 - 4 0 2 3 7 9 1-2 0-0 4 0 1 2 5 0-1 0-0 1 0 2 0 200 29-52 12-17 22 13 27 74 DUKE MP Kina FG 21 21 FG FT R A 6 - 9 0- 0 8 6 4 - 5 1 - 1 5 5 F TP 2 0 12 9 I *«ld Green was 10 of 14 from the finished with a game high 21 Michelle Bain also pumped in ^ for Tech. and s- m ebbie Swicegood led the Mouners w''h 17 points while AI1kme can center Valorie Whiteside Cjcje" 'so i '6' 6-1 iunior Kim Johnson lPps n°cked 'n 15 points for the >iicEhVery0ne got a chance to play \y is good," Robinson said.

Duke consistently shoved the ball inside to 6-7 center John Smith, who scored 13 of his 15 points in the open­ ing half. Guard Kevin Strickland showed that when he is hot, he can be deadly as he hit seven-of-eight field goals, including two-of-three three pointers.

Instead of going home for Thanksgiving, members of the ASU wrestling team traveled to Chat­ tanooga, Tenn. to compete in the Southern Open on Friday. The tournament, TTeld at the University of Tennessee, was good ex­ perience for the wrestlers that went according to ASU Coach Paul Mance. "All the guys that went did well," said Mance. "I was pleased with their ' overall performance." Chris Zwilling, wrestling at 190, won first place in the tournament. He defeated Rufalo from UT-Chattanooga by a score of 2-1. Rufalo, the Southern Conference champion and ranked 18 in the country, had defeated Zwilling two times prior to this tournament. This makes Zwilling's overall record 7-1 "I was skeptical about going to Chattanooga, especially over Thanksgiving, because I wanted to be with my family," said Zwilling. "But it turned out to be a worthwhile ex­ perience for me." Antonio Calloway defeated Donny Heckel from Clemson for third place in the 118 division. Hechel, ranked 16 in the country, had previously won se­ cond place at the Eastern Nationals. He beat Calloway in the quarter Finals, but Calloway came back to defeat him for third place. "Antonio wrestled some tough guys in his weight division," said Mance. "He did very well in his first Southern Open." Jevon Morris, wrestling at 126, won third place in the tournament. He wrestled seven times and ended up with a record of 6-1 in the tourna­ ment. "For Jevon to wrestle seven times between eight in the morning and eight at night and do exceptionally well takes a lot of energy," said Mance, "and I was very pleased with his performance." Dave Mass, wrestling at 134, placed third in the tournament. He ended up wrestling five times during the day. �10 A THE APPALACHIAN. TUESDA Y.

How could we be so foolishly led to believe that Bob Dole could be the answer to our prayers of righting the wrongs of history! Oh, sinners!

So everyone, mark your ballot for Saint Steve for God next time the position is open. However, we may have to wait awhile, so in the mean­ time we would like to encourage Steve to announce his candidacy for the office of President in 1988. Granted, this proposal is still idiotic because Steve said himself that he'd "make a rotten President." We ad­ mire him for admitting it and con­ sider him a step ahead of the other candidates because it's more than they have done. We love you, Saint Steve!

Construction work to widen the tract of U.S. 421 between the Yadkin River and Interstate 77 in Yadkin County has been rescheduledlo begin in 1989 at a cost of $29 million. Originally the widening of U.S. 421 in Yadkin County had been planned for 1992. The project to widen U.S. 421 inside Watauga County has been moved up •wo years from 1993 to 1991. The stretch of U.S. 421 from 1-77 to Wilkesboro which the transportation department had not previously planned to widen to four lanes has been scheduled to be expanded in 1994. The entire project is expected to be completed sometime in the mid 1990's at a total in excess of $100 million. Transportation Department Spokeperson Jim Sughrue said that U.S. 421 is the major road for the northwest corner of the state and it is carrying a very high priority with the transportation department. "It's carrying that priority because of what it can do for the development of •he state. Providing four lane highway access is critical to the economic -. — — — development prospects," Sughrue said, "It's hard for economic development without good highways." Sughrue also said a four lane highway into the Northwest corner of the state would help the tourism industry. The Governor s Office and the transportation department are trying to target and improve strategic highways in North Carolina to bring development to every part of the state. Counties in regions throughout the state were asked earlier this year to identify strategic highways in their areas that needed improvements. We re trying to set priorities to develop a strategic highway corridor system," Sughrue said. Pittman said that the counties in the Northwest Region of the state had unanimously asked that U.S. 421 be widened to four lanes.

The North Carolina Division of •chives and History made the juest for the archaelogical survey ,o : Lott Parrish Associates Group io completed an environmental iessment of the Buck Ridge Area rlier this year. In a letter to the LPA Group, :puty State Historic Preservation ficer David Brook stated, "There : no known archaeological sites thin the project boundaries, iwever, the project area has never en systematically surveyed in order determine the location or jnificance of archaeological ources. "It 's recommended that a com­ is recorrimended that a comprehensive survey be conducted by an experienced archaeologist to identify the presence and significance of the archaeological remains that may be damaged or destroyed by the pro­ posed project." North Carolina Environmental Review Coordinator Renee GledhillEarley said FAA approval of the proj­ ect could depend on whether an archaeological survey of the Buck Ridge area is completed. Project Director of the LPA Group Tom Blakeney said the LPA environmental assessment report stated that an archaeological survey of the area should be done before construction begins. "As previously stated, it is not within the consultant's contract to conduct the requested archaeological survey. It is suggested that a require­ ment should be developed which allowed for a fnmnrphfncivp comprehensive archaeological survey prior to con­ struction," the LPA Group Environmental Assessment stated. "Before construction begins there needs to be an archaeological survey. It's premature now though," Blakeney said. It could be wasted money if the FAA does not approve the site, he added. Blakeney said that it was up to the county to find someone to complete an archaeological survey of the area. He did not know when one could be completed. The FAA could approve the Buck Ridge site conditionally by approving the environmental assessment and the selection of the Buck Ridge site but not allocating any federal money to the project until an archaeological survey of the area is completed. "The availability of federal funds is going to be a factor in the decision of th*» RnorH nf Commissioners," »» the Board of Watauga County Director of Plan­ ning and Inspection Joe Furman said. While the Watauga County Com­ missioners have not requested any federal funds yet, the Summary of Estimated Development Costs in the LPA's Final Master Plan estimates $14,639,040 in federal money will be required to complete the construction of the new airport. The total estimated cost of the new facility is $17,023,800. ASU Anthropology Professor Harvard Ayers said that he has worked in the mountains for several years and sites similar to the Buck Ridge area have contained archaeological sites. Ayers said there is a good chance that the Buck Ridge area also contains an archaeological site. See AIRPORT Page 2 Appaiocnian rnoto by Rich I The Buck Ridge area could be the site of a new airport. Africa By MICHELE HOLLOWELL Appalachian Copy Editor Appalachian Pfioto by Jonn nowia •toilalepula Chabaku spoke in Whitener Hall Monday night. South Africa's Motlalepula Chabaku, spoke on the oppression of blacks Monday night in Whitener Hall. Speaking of her many struggles against oppression, Chabaku urged all students to take a stand and make a difference. She compared the student pro­ testors of the 1960's with today's students. Chabaku said students should build shanties on campus so the ASU administration would take notice. A group of students built a shanty in the rain after the lecture. "This institution (ASU) said, 'We don't like it. Apartheid is morally wrong.' And yet they do nothing about it," Chabaku said. Chabaku said she feels American students are alarmingly ignorant of their country s activities all over the world. She told the audience to get involved in the anti-apartheid movement and demolish racism. "All of us belong to one race—the human race," she said. "There shouldn't be hatred of people anywhere in the world." Although there are 22 million blacks in South Africa, they are considered a minority because they own only 13 percent of the land. The other 87 percent is controlled by four million whites, the majority. Chabaku who refers to herself as a "servant of the people," spoke of the horrifying situations in South Africa. On June 16, 1976, the day Chabaku escaped to the United States, Johan­ nesburg police killed 1,000 black school children. The children had requested to be taught in English instead of Afrikaans, the official language of South Africa. Sometimes children as young as nine years old are jailed and countless others remain missing after police have taken them into custody. Many are beaten or tortured to death in jails. "We had a mass funeral for 20 children, and 6,000 to 10,000 attended. Not only the family, but the community, the nation, has lost a child," Chabaku said. Chabaku told of the various methods of torture police employ. Electroshock, sleep and food deprivation, interrogation and suffocation are still in use. She held up a picture of a naked and bound 17-year-old boy who had been whipped to death while in jail. Chabaku implored everyone to think globally and act locally. She included some advice from her father: "People will put you down. The harder they put you down, the harder you must rise." "Make your footprints in the sands of time, educate each other," she said. "We all have the power to create change." Chabaku has been in exile from South Africa since 1976. Her speech was sponsored by the Black Student Association and the Appalachian Feminist Col­ lective. Campus sculptures damaged by vandals Rv Nirni r p a dcdvl By NICOLE PARSONS Recently two sculptures that were brought to ASU as a part of the Appalachian Summer Cultural Arts Program were vandalized. One of the sculptures done by Roger Blakely sat in front of Sanford Hall and the other vandalized exhibit was the Birdhouse Field done by sculptor Greeby Myatt in front of Wey Hall. Ten different sculptures were erected in June as part of the Appalachian Summer Program to recognize American sculptors and promote appreciation of the visual arts. So far only two have been damaged. "There has been quite a bit of damage especially in the Birdhouse sculpture," Director of Appalachian Summer Robert Chumbley said. "The sculpture located in front of Sanford Hall was ripped out of the cement and thrown in the bushes and the Birdhouse sculpture has been through a series of mishaps. Six of the bronze birds are missing and the poles also have been damaged," Chumbley said. "Some are more vandalism proof than others. The Birdhouse Field was one most easy to damage," Chumbley added. Since the vandalism, both have been partially repaired by the physical plant. "They are still in the progress of replacing the Birdhouse Field sculpture, pouring new concrete and their area coordinator. erecting new poles," Art Professor All students convicted by the stu­ Mary Wyrick said. dent judiciary are required to meet Money for the sculptures was with their area coordinator to discuss privately donated by Doris and their conviction charge.

We hope if coordinators and taking a close look anyone knows anything they'll come at the effect of the letter. The court is forward. These sculptures are here to protect both the university and the student and give the most fair treatment we can," Heckle said. Student judiciary clears court backlog By SUSAN SAYETTA By SUSAN SAYETTA Appalachian Staff Writer • backlog of student court cases 'ast year has almost been cleared mis year's court docket. • backlog from last year has not | any major problems to the •n dealing with new cases from mester. b'le the backlog did present ms> the court was so effective edicated that we kept up with tse load this year," Student ley General Andrew Heckle k'e said the court kept long hours and worked extra hard to clear the case load and make sure there would not be another backup this year. As of yesterday, there were eight cases left including new cases this year and the backlog from last year. This year the Office of Residence Life has implemented a new Resident Intervention Program. Under this new system, students committing minor offenses are required to meet with the resident assistant, residence hall director and the area coordinator instead of being referred to the stu­ dent judiciary. 'The backlog from court is a yearly ^ trend." Heckle said. "The RA trend," Intervention Plan was set up so the court would not be so overwhelmed." The student court had considered dropping the cases from last year but decided that it would be unfair. "We have the responsibility to han­ dle cases and students have the right to be heard," Heckle said. "It would be unfair and monkeying with the system if cases were dropped." The Public Defenders office also said there has been a problem with contempt of court cases and delays with people receiving letters from ROTC places fifth in state competition By TRENT HUFFMAN Appalachian News Edilor ' s Reserve Officers' Training Ranger Challenge team placed ut of twenty teams competing recent Ranger Challenge comn. ASU team competed in the renade throw, rifle marksman'fie and machine gun assembly, er'ng, rope bridge construction 'en-kilometer road march with nipment. The team also took my Physical Fitness Test that consists of pushups, situps and the two mile run. ROTC members on the team were Richard Carney, Richard Rhyne, John Bray, Charles Schrader, Danny Hassig, Stephen Harragay, Scott Pruitt, Christopher Mohan and Guy Woodard. Captain Robert Nicholson and Sergeant Major Peter Lynch were team advisors. The day long competition began at 4:30 a.m. with the physical training test and concluded in the late after­ noon with the ten kilometer road march. "Our team worked hard," Lynch said. "We are proud of their efforts." The competition was held at Fort Bragg and included all of the ROTC units in North and South Carolina. The team from Campbell University took first place and North Carolina State placed second. They will com­ pete next spring in the East Coast divisional competition. "The entire team wishes Campbell and NC State the best of luck on the next competition. We are already looking at next year and planning our training for next year's competition," Lynch added. The ASU ROTC will be sponsoring its annual junior ROTC Rifle Marksmanship competition this Saturday. Six area high schools have been scheduled to attend the competi­ tion. High schools from Avery County, East Burke, McDowell County, Alleghany County, South Caldwell and East Surry will be competing in the marksmanship contest. Medals and trophies will be awarded for both team and individual competition. - Appalachian Staff Writer Appalachian Photo bT Koith Jonot Vandalized sculpture. valuable and mean a lot to the school," Chumbley said. ASU Security as well as students have been on hand to watch and protect the artwork. "Security has done a fantastic job. They have promised to step up the watch on the sculptures and are doing everything they can. Of course the sculptures can't be watched 24 hours," Chumbley said. Wyrick said the artwork may not look valuable but it is. Some of the pieces are priced from $1500 up to $2500. "Outdoor art will always be van­ dalized but ASU is a very special place and we need to keep up the image that ASU is different and that we can put up great works of art and have it appreciated instead of destroyed Chumbley said. New phone lines added for student's convenience By MARGAREi MUGNIEK Appalachian Staff Writer Earlier this month 105 new outside telephone trunk lines were added to ASU's student telephone system. A Southern Bell service survey said it takes one trunk line, a telephone line used to make off-campus telephone calls, to serve 15 on-campus telephones. Before the new lines were added the ratio was about 14 telephones to one trunk line. The ratio now is about eight telephones to one line. Southern Bell is currently conduct­ ing a week-long study of telephone usage by students and if the addition of the new lines is adequate. "According to a two-day study the service was better than 95 percent," Assistant Director of Special Services, Gary Morgan said. "We're hoping the traffic study will show us we don't need to do anything more."

"Basically what you come to is that there aren't very many good spots to build a new airport in the mountains." To qualify for federal funds the county will have to have a profes­ sional archaeologist perform the survey of the area. If a site is found to be in the area, it would have to be of major significance to stop the construction project. The Watauga County Board of Commissioners have not yet made a formal commitment to build a new airport in the Buck Ridge area.

THURSDA Y, NOVEMBER 19, 1987 Senate discusses closings v SHELLEY kAHio By SHELLF.Y KAEHR ^ Senators Frank Callis and Ron usse expressed concern over Barwick s original draft of the bill. Originally the bill stated that work study students would have their shifts extended fifteen minutes.

I guess it was because he has done so much and I've done so little P.j. looked extremely tired. Actually, he looked plumb ragged out Like he d chased down too many planes. He seemed very much at ease, though! ule he sat around smoking and cracking jokes We chatted about the weather and how logical it would be for him to no ck to Hickory that night. He was speaking in Nevada the next night and had 6 catch a plane early. While we were talking, a couple of older men walked backstage and roduced themselves. Mr. O Rourke showed massive amounts of patience in ening to those men slobber all over him. I asked him after they left if he :r got sick of people talking about his work "Yes." He said he got sick of the negative reactions more than anything but he netimes got sick of hearing about all of it. Period. P.J. had been hunting recently in New Brunswick.

BSA Gospel Choir to perform in Bahamas By MARY MILLER Appalachian Staff Writer ie ASU Black Student Association Gospel Choir will perform in Nassau, mas during their spring break tour. ie choir plans to visit area high schools and give concerts during their fourlay in the islands.

"It was a great experience, and you couldn't beat it for anything," Cadet James Stone, who spent July 16 until August 23 in Korea comments. Stone is involved in Cadet Troop Leadership Training, which enabled him to go to Korea. "Only the elite of the enlisted ranks are picked for pro­ grams like this. I was given my pick of anywhere to go, and Korea was it," Stone said. Stone had many reasons for choos­ ing Korea. He had never been overseas and it sounded interesting to him. Korean culture was not at all what Stone expected. Instead of a country inhabited with miles of wooden shacks and rice paddies, Stone described many of Korea's cities as being modern-day metropolises. He was also able to witness firsthand several cities in Korea, such as Seoul, Pusan and Taegu. He was stationed in "Only the elite of the enlisted ranks are picked for programs like this. I was given my pick of anywhere to go, and Korea was it." Appalachian Photo b, John Howl. ROTC Cadet James Stone Daejon. Stone served as an assistant platoon leader and commented on his job by —Cadet James Stone •==ai The Korean people were basically friendly to Stone, especially the older people. "I think the older people remember how much we (Americans) did for them in the war," Stone said. "You can see the American influence in the culture. I don't think they would have advanced so far so quick­ ly without the American influence." Aspects of Korean life that Stone expected were little villages scattered in between the mountains and rice paddies covering the flatlands. "It was interesting to see modern cities mixed along with backward villages. I expected most of the people to know basic English, words like 'hello' and prices for goods." Stone was impressed by how inex­ pensive goods were in Korea. He could buy shoes for S10 and jackets for $25 that would cost over $100 in the U.S. He was also surprised at the number of cars in Korea. Only a few people own cars, most of the streets are packed with taxis. Stone would like to go back to Korea later in life. "I am glad I went to Korea, because now I know what it is really like," he added. Can you deal with alternative By JIMMY GUIGNARD El Cetera Editor gay community as well as women in general. He pointed out that every six minutes a woman is raped in the United States and, during the same in­ terval, a gay or lesbian student is assaulted on a college campus. Body also pointed out many ques­ tions asked about gays and lesbians are a result of ignorance and homophobia. To demonstrate, he turned the questions around and presented them to the students. When did you become heterosexual?" or "In spite of societal approval of marriage, the divorce rate is incredibly high. Why are heterosexuals unstable in their relationships?" were two of the ques­ tions he asked. ' "Gays or lesbians have two choices: To be happy gay or to be unhappy," John Body said. Body was the featured speaker in a series of lectures on Gay and Lesbian Awareness in Student Affairs presented on Thursday, November 12 and Friday, November 13. Some of the topics Body covered were general information on gay and lesbian lifestyles, issues of concern to gay and lesbian students, clarification of myths regarding gays and lesbians, and developing an openness towards alternative lifestyles. Body expounded on becoming more tolerant of alternative lifestyles in his Thursday night lecture. Homophobia, Body explained, is "I'd rather them (students) ask me an irrational fear of homosexuality or personal questions about my lifestyle becoming homosexual and a source of than ask no questions at all," Body a great deal of violence towards the said. He also said he didn't mind such intimate questions as "Do you wear condoms while you have sex?" (which one person attending the lecture ask­ ed) because he feels his purpose is to educate. This need to educate led Body to give six programs in two days to a variety of audiences, from the general student population to specifically Resident Directors. The reason for Body com­ municating with the students, staff and faculty was to make the campus population aware of the diversity and rights of people with alternative lifestyles. Body has a conception of the community working together to overcome any obstacles between homosexuals and heterosexuals. He also wanted to make people aware of and discuss homophobia, which is the fear of sexuality and results in label­ ing or dehumanizing and stereotyping people because of their preferences. According to Body, being gay or lesbian is "just loving someone else." Discrimination, Body added, in­ terferes with people coming out of the closet. "There's a whole human rights issue here," he said. After all, there are 25 million gays and lesbians in the United States. One of the questions Body hears the most is, "What caused your homosexuality?" He maintains the decision is difficult and it is everybody's individual decision. "I am a very happy person and I don't want a cure," Body added. Body said he received a very positive reaction from the people who attended his lectures. He said he en­ joyed being in the south also. "It's been very enjoyable in the south," Body said. "It has really cut down a lot of my stereotypes." ASU news bureau keeps campus informed By APRIL GRIFFIN Assistant Etc. Editor The Publicity Department of any corporation performs an important role by familiarizing the public to the internal operations of the corpora­ tion. The ASU News Bureau is no excep­ tion. Established in the 1950's, the Bureau's name has changed many times but its role of serving the ASU community has stayed the same. Led by Director Speed Hallman, the Bureau's key function is to promote University events within the campus and outside media. They also write Hometown News Releases at students' request. Hallman and staff writer Jeni Gray cover the academic and ad­ ministrative beat. "The job is fun because the whole campus is there to cover," Hallman said. They also report on special events, concerts, current enrollment, and do feature articles. Hallman encourages faculty and students to publicize events through their department. But the job is not all sweetness. When mixed-reaction news breaks, the Bureau must cover that too.

When h friends laugh at her, will i, be because she is dating a freshman, or will i, be because she appears to have had her hair done with a Cuisinart? The possibilities are endless. I must admit, however, that the best movie for apres-script writing has go. to be The Breakfast Club. This movie starred everybody as those typical stereotyped kids that appear in typical high schools. Molly Ringwald was 8 gelS driven t0 detent'on in her father, i hh^I o Z BMW. Judd Nelson is a wastoid drug-dealer type who seems to be right at home in detention. Michael Anthony Hall is the geek. (What high school is complete without one?) Ally Sheedy plays a basket case who is neglected by her parents, and Erniho Estevez is the jock. One of the best scenes representing exactly what each portrays is the lunch scene. Ringwald pulls out her designer shopping bag, and proceeds to set up her own personal sushi bar. Nelson doesn't have his own lunch, but watches everyone else with great interest. Sheedy has a sandwich that she takes the meat (I believe that it s pickle loaf) off of and flings it across the room Hall has a very nutritious lunch. Estevez, lunch is my favorite He has a big grocery bag that contains a quart of milk, several sandwiches, a whole bag of potato chips, and fruit and doughnuts for dessert. During the movie, they resolve their personal social differences and discover that they could all probably be great friends. But after this day of great friend­ ship, what comes next? I like to think that it goes something like this. Nelson comes to school and sees Ringwald and goes over and gives her a big kiss. This causes scandal among the social crowd, so they cheer themselves up by picking on Hall When Estevez hears of this, he rushes to defend Hall, and beats up the entire prep crowd. This only adds to the traumatic experience of the day, and the clique is forced to check in at the school psychologist's office, where Sheedy is. Ringwald and Nelson stop in to say hi to Sheedy, and this act completely destroys any remaining threads of social stability. The preppies all become hysterical and start freaking out and wearing pely&fer-double knit. Ringwald, Nelson, Hall, Estevez, and Sheedy celebrate their new-found friendship by go­ ing out to lunch at Ethel, Diner, Well, it could happen. An Appalachian Christmas is coming Special to The Appalachian This is a true story. It is the saga of one college student, "claim to fame". It takes a while to set up because I often start rambling. Please bear with me. Working at WASU has opened many doors for me. In less than a year I have made many new friends, pissed a whole dorm off, actually got to meet Real Radio People like Captain Jack and Shelly B. from WXRC, found a creative outlet for my "sick humor" which has gotten me into trouble on more than one occasion, played a certain Violent Femmes song on the air that had no place on the radio and most importantly, I have witnessed the transformation of a "Hot Hits" top 40 WASU to a sleek and progressive 91 ROCK. WASU has 7 different departments in which to work. The only depart­ ment for me to work in was naturally Programming because of my love for music. The last department I would want to work in would be News. At least that was what I thought at the end of last semester When it came time to sign up for Departments at the beginning of this . year I found myself actually signing up for a news cast! I figured it couldn't hurt and it might actually help with my delivery on the air. The News Director, and resident Elvis impersonator, Mark Blackmon, promised that this year "NEWS WILL BE FUN!!" without sacrific­ ing our long established "commit­ ment to excellence." I figured his "commitment to ex­ cellence" was all talk and fairly bogus. I mean, how professional can you expect a 340 watt college station to be? I ate my words (or thoughts) when Mark, along with his sidekicks, Beth and Karen, traveled to High Point for a gathering of the Democratic presidential candidates. That day they hob-nobbed with the likes of Dick Gephertd, A1 Gore, Bruce Babbit and Jessie Jackson. I never thought I would be jealous of something like that, but I found myself getting sucked into the vacuum that is news and politics. I stayed up late getting all the details from Karen of what happened. We thought it would have been amus­ ing if she had gotten A1 Gore to say that when he and his wife were in Boone they listened to WASU-FM. . I mean, how many college progressive stations have the endorsement of the president of the Parent's Music Resource Center (RMRC)? We laugh­ ed and had another beer. Two days later I was awakened by a call from Karen. She asked what I was doing this Sunday. When I said, "Nothing," she informed me that Tipper Gore would be in WinstonSalem. I asked what time we were leaving. Headbangers: this By AQUALUNG So, you like to bang your head against the wall, huh? Well, have I found the band for you. These five rivet-heads play wide open, hell-bent for leather rock'n'roll. I'm not particularly fond of heavy metal (due to old age, I think) but oc­ casionally I get a wild hair. Warlock nips that hair in the bud (or should I say, in the butt). Now you must understand that I am the biggest opponent to Tipper Gore and the PMRC (aside from Frank Zappa). When people start talking about censoring music I love, I start to get upset. I have been following Gore, moves since I first heard about the PMRC. A friend of mine has on video tape the now classic Oprah Winfry in which Tipper is beasting about rock music. We would get drunk and yell at the screen. (It was a slow summer). So, when presented with the prospect of actually meeting this woman and maybe even interviewing her, well, I was on Cloud 9. I figured I would go down there with Karen and we would frazzle her so much that she would break down and scream, "You're right! I've been wrong about everything!! I LOVE MOTLEY CRUE!!!" Sunday rolled around and much to my surprise I had to go down by myself!! Karen couldn't go and it was too late to cancel the trip and too ear­ ly in the morning to get someone to go with me in her place. So I drove down to Winston where The Democratic Women of North Carolina Associa­ tion were meeting for a brunch. When 1 arrived I glared across the room and noticed their featured speaker, Tipper Gore. With tape recorder in one hand and note pad in the other I marched up to someone who looked in charge and informed her that I was from WASU- FM. Imagine my shock when she acted like she had never heard of it! I asked her if it would be possible to do an interview either before or after Tipper, speech. She looked at me, smiled and said, "No." Tipper would have to leave right after her speech to catch a plane and there would be no way she could give an interview. The look of disappointment was erased from my face when one of Mrs. Gore, aids came up and told me that if I wanted to, I could interview her in the limo on the way to the air­ port! So I sat through her speech and later was introduced to her on the way downstairs. What I encountered was not a heartless monster who wanted teenagers to lead a Donna Reed ex­ istence. She was intelligent and ex­ tremely nice. There was no way she would ever back down from her belief that she was correct in her actions. Many of Gore's points, I must ad­ mit, made a lot of sense and her hus­ band's positions on major issues were a lot like mine. I am still very much against the PMRC and I doubt I'll end up voting for Albert Gore, but I am thankful I got to see a side 1 never thought ex­ isted of a woman I used to hate. Since then I have tried to be a lot less judgmental of people without com­ promising my beliefs. Everyone deserves this. Even the Tipper Gore, of the world. be what you need may The opening song, "All We Are," is a vocally harmonic song in which the guitars penetrate the skull like a teflon coated bullet. The other songs on side one, in­ cluding the heavy ballad, "Make Time For Love," are mainstream metal -but. the group does "employ a few creative tools, especially in "I Rule The Ruins." On side two, the songwriting duo of Pesch and Bolan present a somewhat political tune, "East Meets West." "When east meets west, it's gonna be one hell of a mess," Pesch belts out accompanied by flaming guitar licks. I'm glad they don't get too deep. The most powerful song on the album is the last cut, "Fur Immer (meaning "For Always"). The song, sung in German, mixing haunting keyboards while Bolan and Arvantis trade raucous riffs that border on los­ ing control. I pretty much like the album. It's simply glamour metal like Motley Crue and Ratt, yet it seems to be dif­ ferent. Give it a whirl on the trusty old turntable and you'll understand. The main weakness was Pesch, lack of range.

As part of An Appalachian Christmas, the Appalachian Young People's Theatre will present two plays. The Lion Who Wouldn't and The Second Shepherds' Play, Satur­ day, December 5 in Farthing Auditorium. The Lion Wno Wouldn't is filled with music, dance and laughter The play is about a bored bookish lion who decides to leave the circus and find himself a new caiecr. He tries several odd jobs, but finally realizes that his perfect profession is being himself. The Second Shepherds' Play, directed by University Theatre Direc­ tor Susan S. Cole, is about three shepherds tending flock on a cold December night. A thief, Mak, steals a sheep and takes it home. His wife disguises it as a baby, but the truth is found out. As the shepherds return to their flocks, an angel appears and tells them of the birth of the Chiist child The Lion Who Wouldn't will have a special matinee at I p.m. and will show again at 7 p.m. along with The Second Shepherds' Play.

And this could be one of Hussey's best. The Cats are led by All-SC per­ former Derek Rucker (20.3 ppg). Rucker's three-year running mate Chris Heineman graduated, but Dean Keener should provide an outside shooter and ample experience. The hoss inside is 6-4 power for­ ward Jeff Himes, who put away 18 points and seven rebounds a game. Center Jay Schmitt needs to mature for the Wildcats to seriously challenge the Herd. Look for 6-5 forward Todd Scott to come in and add scoring punch for the departed Ace Tanner. UT-Chattanooga (21-8, 14-2) UTChattanooga will remain where it has been for almost a decade, in the upper echelon of the Southern Conference, as the Mocs try to bring third-year coach Mack McCarthy his third straight 20-win season. The Moccasins are led inside by 6-6 power forward Lance Fulse. Fulse (14.9 ppg, 8.2 rpg) is a hoss that weighs in at 257 and can take up plen­ ty of space in the paint. Also returning for his senior season is catquick point guard Marty Lyons. Lyons averaged 13.8 points per game while dishing out 95 assists one year ago. Two transfers should also provide immediate help to McCarthy's squad. 6-3 guard Benny Green from Kansas State, and 6-5 sophomore Vincent Robinson from Memphis State could be all the Mocs need to challenge the Cats and Herd for the top spot in the SC. Furman (17-12, 10-6) Last year's Southern Conference Coach-of-the- onrad is Apps Rebounding killed ASU last year and may hurt them again. Gibson can't do it all and needs help from 6-6 Ben Miller and 6-8 Jerry Homes. The backcourt combinations of Kemp Phillips, Rodney Peel, and Daryl Person make for a dangerous trio of three-point bombers. Appalachian Photo by ASU SIO Kemp Phillips part of backcourt combination. Year Butch Estes welcomes back three starters off a 1986-87 squad that posted the school's first winning record since 1980. In the backcourt the Paladins return one of the best three point shooting combinations in the Southern Conference in Shawn Reid and David Brown. Brown and Reid led the Purple Paladins in scoring last year pumping in 15.2 and 14.3 points per game respectively. In the frontcourt the Paladins will be small but improved. Returning at small forward is arguably the team's best player John Castille. Castille, an all-tournament selection last year, is back after leading the team in minutes played (825), rebounding (93), assists (107), blocks (20), and steals (33). Add to this returning talent one of the best recruiting classes in the Southern Conference and the Paladins could easily improve in last year's 17-12 mark. Western Carolina (10-19, 4-12) One year ago the Catamounts of Western Carolina were loaded and then flop­ ped to finish 10-19. This year the pro­ spects aren't as good so look out for Coach Steve Cottrell's squad. The Cats do return their three leading scorers from a year ago in 6-4 forward Robert Hill (15.1 ppg), 6-5 guard Floyd Showers (10.7 ppg), and 6-8 center Andre Gault (10.3 ppg). Gault will be the key for the Cata­ mounts as his 6.4 rebounds per game will be their major factor on the boards. To improve this year's squad Cottrell looked to the family for help, literally. Cottrell signed son Mike, the third-leading scorer in North Carolina prep history, to bring in some instant offense. Junior college transfer Bennie Goettie, at 6-5, should get the nod at power forward for the Cats. All of this adds up to one thing. WCU will improve on last year's 10-19 record and seventh place SC finish, but not by much. Appalachian State (7-21, 3-13) The Apps return all Five starters fyom.last season 7-21 squad, giving them hope for a much improved 1987-88 cam­ paign.

Webster. Webster knocked in 12 points per game while pulling down 7 boards per outing last year. Webster's help inside will come from 6-8 Chad Keller, a transfer from James Madison, but it will not be enough to keep the Bucs out of the SC's lower division. Virginia Military (11-17, 5-11) Nor­ mally when a team returns four starters then the prospects are good for a successful campaign. Such is not the case with VMI. The lone starter missing is two-time Southern Conference Player-of-theYear Gay Elmore as well as his 25.5 points per game. Picking up the slack for Joe Cantafio's squad will be point guard Renard Johnson and the Williams twins, Ramon and Damon. Johnson tossed in 9.5 points per contest last year while dishing out 95 assists, mostly to Elmore. Up front the Keydets will be big but slow with only 6-5 forward Lennon Mings and 6-8 center Bobby Gardner adding much offense to the attack. Look for VMI to battle the SC's other military school for the eighth slot in this year's Conference tourney. • I s I * * H * * The Citadel (13-15, 6-10) Last year the Bulldogs surprised some people by winning 13 ballgames and climbing to fifth place in the Southern Con­ ference standings. This year Coach Randy Nesbit will be lucky to get his squad back in to the SC tournament. Gone are the two biggest characters from a year ago in Craig Burgess (17.6 ppg, 7.5 rpg) and three-point bomber Craig Bardo (14.4 ppg). The main man for this year's squad will be senior Kent Hill. The 6-6 for­ ward averaged 9.3 points per game last season and will get the ball often in this campaign. Also providing offensive help will be guards Leon Bryant (10 ppg) and Ed Conroy (8.1). However, look for the Bulldogs to have the rest of the conference on it's shoulders come season's end. •A !1 • n one more warm-up before playoffs begin have cene of By TROY DOUGLAS Appalachian Staff Writer It's the best rivalry nobody ever heard of, according to Sports Illustrated. It's Appalachian State and Western Carolina for the bragg­ ing rights of Western North Carolina. Appalachian State enters the con­ test with an 8-2 mark overall and 6-0 in the Southern Conference.

You can throw the records out the window in this one, however, because these two squads just don't like each other. "It's the battle for the 'Ole Moun­ tain Jug' and we hope to keep it in Boone for the third straight year," said ASU Head Coach Sparky Woods. "There's no doubt in my mind that they will be fired up for this game." The Catamounts have had a disap­ pointing season thus far. They expected to contend for the con­ ference championship, but they have been plagued by injuries and haven't had the firepower they had earlier this season.

"They've been plagued by injuries so much this season that they haven't been able to play the same lineup every week," Woods said. "They are getting most of their players back for us, however, and we expect them to be just about full strength." Quarterbacking an explosive offen­ sive unit will be either Mark Smith or Todd Cottrell. Cottrell began the season as the Catamount signal caller before being injured against Mars Hill.

He leads the SC in scoring with 16 field goals and 21 PATs. The Cats play host to ASU Saturday y on Bob Waters Field. against Marshall. Smith has completed 107 passes in 180 attempts for 1399 yards this year. Smith is a freshman, but can't be con­ sidered one, because he has seen so much action already this season. Flanker Vincent Nowell heads up the Cat receivers. He is flanked by split end Otis Washington and tight end Del Foster. Nowell is one of the top receivers in the conference. He is a smooth route runner with great hands and excellent speed. He is exceptionally dangerous in the open field. He was AllSouthern Conference last year. Foster is replacing injured starter Jon Reed. Reed broke his ankle in last week's game against Marshall and is out. Foster is an unknown quantity as he has not caught a pass this season. Opening the holes for the Western backs and receivers will be an experienced talented offensive line. Center Jay Mulwee is flanked by guards Steve Hall and Tony Garagiola, and tackles John Martin and Tony Jones. Hall has to be the class of the bunch. He was an all-conference selection a year ago. He has good feet and is an excellent pass protector. The Cats are capable of scoring points in a hurry on offense. They have excellent skilled players who can go the distance from anywhere on the field. "They have so much firepower," Woods said. "They are capable of exploding on you from anywhere and at anytime." Defensively, the Cats are an intimidating, hard-hitting group that will blitz freshman quarterback Bobby Fuller. Up front, WCU probably has the most athletic defensive line in the Southern Conference. Heading up this talented group of players are Geno Segars, John Stewart, Chris Spach and Scottie Arant. The Mountaineer Hogs have had trouble in the past pushing these talented players around. A good pass­ ing game will significantly help take pressure off the running backs. Linebackers Cedric Lee, Larry Inman, Everett Spellman and James Bryon are as good as any in the conference. Spellman was an all-conference selection a year ago, and has to be the emotional leader of the Catamount stop troops. The secondary is experienced and talented with Kenny Peeples and Tousaint Kennedy playing the corners and Charles Harrison playing free safety. Harrison is exceptionally gifted and forces the sweep well, while Kennedy is third on the team in tackles with 70. The Catamount special teams are talented as well. Two-time AllAmerican Kirk Roach is one of the nation's top kickers. Once the Cata­ mounts cross the 50-yard line, he is a threat to score as Roach has nailed seven field goals from over 50 yards. Anthony Bare handles the punting duties. He averages 39.7 yards per punt on 51 attempts. Earl Bates, who was the 100, 200, and 400 meter champion at the Southern Conference track meet last year, is the Cat kick returner. Bates can flat fly and, once in the open field, won't be caught. % A x V A X X X �THE A PPA LACHIA N, THURSDA Y, NOVEMBER 19, 1987 The Appalachian State ground attack has been impotent in ASU's lost two contests. The Apps have managed just 169 yards rushing against weaker defenses in Marshall and The Citadel. Tim Sanders' absence last week due to on injury may have hurt, but the biggest obstacle hos been the eight and nine-man fronts put up by opposing defenses. Fullback Doug Beaty may be forced to tailback per­ manently. Western Carolina's rushing attack is minimol. Darryl Jackson leads the Cata­ mounts, averaging 63.9 yards a game. The Cats average 109.5 rushing yards per contest.

Smith's stats find him completing 59 percent of his attempts for 10 touchdowns and seven interceptions. ASU shocked the world by go­ ing to the air early and often last week at The Citadel.

They are equally porous against the run and the pass. Once again the Apps must put pressure on a QB, something they ve done well all season.

After a great deal of deliberation the Board of Directors of the Founation approved the South African Investment Policy, restructuring inestments to companies that adhere to the Sullivan Principles. !hancellor Thomas was supportive of the decision, but many faculty lembers and students were not. Faculty and Students for Divestment was organized to pressure the niversity to withdraw holdings from all companies with ties to South ifrica. This group planned to: write a report stating reasons why they iew the Sullivan Principles as inadequate; boycott the Foundation jnd and create an alternative fund to be given to the university in the /ent of divestment; contact and explain their plans to large conibutors and black alumni; and bring speakers to campus to address ie issue. Those opposing divestment fought equally hard. James Hathaway, i associate professor of management in the College of Business arnged for First Secretary of the South African Embassy to the United ates Eli Bitzer to speak on campus. Bitzer asserted that a full pull-out ' American companies would enhance the country's depression and e country would be forced to spend money on economic sanctions in;ad of reform. Depite the continued fight, the ASU Foundation maintained its tnce and as summer approached the debate died down. The issue still mains, however, and the campus should take a close look at it. Inriduals should strive to understand the situation and form an ucated opinion. h is important to take a stand and demand that the Foundation in>t in a morally responsible fashion. The situation in South Africa is t getting better and students and faculty should demand responsible esting, whether or not they as individuals favor divestment, it is not so important which position a person takes. It is important it they choose to take a stand. 'LOOM COUNTY COMMENTARY HHW SCHNQDai Eduor Apathy promotes world injustice Would VOu stand idlv hv tuhiU innocent people iWould you stand idly by while around you were tortured and killed in cold blood, knowing that you could do something about it? Or even worse, could you look at a person who had devoted their entire being to helping those inno­ cent people and consider he or she only a nuisance—a trivial and easily forgotten moment in your daily routine? If you answered no, perhaps you should think again. On Monday November 16, I went to hear Rev. Motlalepula Chabaku speak on what it is like to be black and female in South Africa today. When I ar­ rived, I was pleased to see the room—a large lecture hall—filled to the point of people sitting in the aisles. It seemed to me that perhaps we as students had finally developed a social conscience. However, as __ •. . perpetuating the existence of these atrocities by the implied approval of silence. My questions were all answered at the end of Rev. Chabaku's speech. As the audience rose to give Rev. Chabaku a standing ovation, I was appalled to hear a girl sitting next to me mutter, "Thank God, it's about time," and leave quickly, carrying a notebook in which she had doodled throughout the evening, taking few notes and paying even less attention. I no longer have to wonder what sort of person would sit idly by and watch these fiends torture tenyear-old children. I am quite convinced that the ma­ jority of ASU students, aptly represented by the girl in the lecture hall, would be unable to rise above their confirmed sense of apathy and "this-is-not-myproblem" attitude. Most of us here at this institution of "higher" learning would do absolutely nothing. Dogmatism common error in campus thought In the movie, The Name Of The Rose, the setting of the story is in the Dark Ages in a Christian monastery where the monks are being mysteriously murdered. The monks of the monastery, being the true believers they are, interpret this horri­ ble turn of events as a sign of the Apocalypse and the Anti-Christ. one's opinion as unnecessary. Two, as philosopher of science Sir Karl Popper points out, dogmatism is also the result of structuring one's opinion in such a way that any falsifying evidence against the opinion is taken by the opinion to be supporting evidence. Both kinds of dogmatism are equally common on the Opinion Page. The Grand Inquisitor of the story, Bernardo de Guy, sees a peasant girl with a black cat and a black rooster and assumes this to be "irrefutable" evidence that the peasant girl was hav­ ing intercourse with the Devil, thereby bringing evil spirits into the world to kill the monks. As a response to all this, William of Baskerville, the Aristotlean detective-hero of the story played by Sean Connery, says the following prolific statement: "The only presence of the Devil 1 see is the desire of you to see his work done." As a prime example of such dogmatism, there is Rick Rairdon's article "Beware of Meaningless Isms" which appeared November 10. The subject is, of all things, dogmatic 'ism.' Mr. Rairdon rightfully points out that Marxism is a dogmatic 'ism.' Yet he at once blithely dismisses the facts and his own definitions when he holds that Darwinism also is a dogmatic doctrine and Calvinism and Creationism are not. In truth, nothing within the theory of Darwinism is presented as irrefutable. Darwin presented evidence for his theory through his observations as a passenger on the H.M.S. Beagle. To this day, biologists dispute many points of this evidence. Also, nothing in his theory attempts to subsume any contrary evidence for the theory as proof of the theory. Here lately, there have been quite a few people in our campus media and in various campus events who are like the villains in The Name Of The Rose. They have found the Devi! in their desire to see his work done. What I mean, of course, is that they have found proof of their pet notions through the hydra-headed irrational In contrast to this, Calvinism, monster whose two heads are Creationism, and indeed all forms of dogmatism and brazen, inexcusable Theistic belief within the Judeoevasion. And this is quite sad. Christian-Islamic tradition are Among people from and within an dogmatic.

It is the result of one of proof for the theory. two things. One, dogmatism is the In like fashion, Theistic belief result of holding the need to prove attempts to explain all natural by Berke Breathed phenomenon, all human events, and all ethical conduct in terms of the whims of a Transcendent Being that is incapable of errors in thought, word and deed, and who must be believed regardless of evidence to the contrary. Mr. Rairdon says it best himself when he cites the notorious quotes: "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom" and "All things came into being by Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being." Obviously, Rairdon's is not the only campus dogmatism. Another classic example was Melissa Barth's presentation at the recent panel discussion "Censorship and Por­ nography: Which Is The Greater Threat?" At the presentation she stated that one particularly blatant example of sexism in our society was a video game whose premise was rescu­ ing the damsel in distress from the vicious muggers whom the player has to fight off. When I pointed out that one of the villains in the game was a woman with a whip, this did not dissuade her from her premise that the game was sexist because as she put it, the woman with a whip was an archetypical embodiment of the fulfillment of sado-masochistic male fantasies. Although I was too angered at the moment to point this out. once again, just as all the other dogmas previously mentioned rejected all con­ trary evidence, so also did Ms. Barth's dogmatic feminism. Then, of course, there is the other head of the beast, evasion, which is obvious enough. The Opinion Page Editor David Farthing has been guilty of this in the past two articles. In his November 10 article he takes some great points on the problems inherent in the existence of public schools and ruins them with the evasive, outrageous assertion that America is less free than the Soviet Union. Moreover, in his next article, "America: Love It Or Leave It" he takes this point to irritating propor­ tions by evasively asserting that "the only speech protected by the First Amendment is commercial speech" (evading the fact that Supreme Court rulings after the New Deal have pro­ tected almost all but commercial speech.) And he also states "If I lived in Russia, 1 could still think for myself," falsely insinuating that he can't here and forgetting that in Russia, "thinking for himself' is about all he can do. ' 1 am not of the "love-it-or-leaveit" mentality. I do realize and lament the fact that America is fast slipping down the path of collectivism and that America is no longer the free nation it once was. However, to equate the status of an American with the status of a Soviet or Nazi slave is an absolute exaggeration of America's problems and an absolute insult to the victims of Nazi and Com­ munist totalitarianism. If America has reached the stage of Germany in the Thirties or the Soviet Union today, who is America's Anatoli Charansky or Elie Wiesel? Where is America's Gulag or Auschwitz? Where is the One Party State and what is the one party? Above all where is America's KGB or Gestapo taking you away for your articles, Mr. Farthing? Blank out! Upon this note, I must pause here to prime up my intellectual (perhaps even a literal) 12-gauge in giddy anticipation of response by those who "desire to see the Devil's work done." I only pity that they didn't have such back in William of Baskerville's time. New WASU format deserves promotion Thursdays ARE stow toys » the evening went on, it became quite apparent that the only reason most of them were there was because they were required to be. As Rev. Chabaku told of the atrocities committed in South Africa today, I was moved almost to the point of tears at times, wondering to myself what kind of person it took to torture and kill a ten-year"•d child. I will not repeat her speech to describe the crimes committed upon innocent people by men who claim to be Christians, but I will say it seems that South Africa is being run as a huge concentration camp, and that neo-Nazism is alive and well in the white government there. I found it hideous to think that a holocaust is occuring right under our noses and yet we are still in­ vesting U.S. money in South African businesses. I again wondered what sort of person could hear all of these things and still remain apathetic, thus PAYS HERE AT "#• INTERNATIONAL ICAYUNE 'BCOOR] P To the Editor: As a faculty member I have been a somewhat vocal critic of WASU. For the past few years I have fired an annual salvo in the general direc­ tion of the station, simply because it was the absolute worst college sta­ tion I had ever heard. People would ask me if WASU was really a college station (as opposed to a junior high station) and I would reluctantly ad­ mit that it was. My primary embarrassment con­ cerned the format, the constant repetition of trivial and uninteresting music. I believed that the university was ignoring its committment to help students graduate at least a bit more experienced and 'cosmopolitan" than they were when they entered. If students choose to remain knowledgeable about only the market researched, national advertised and corporately produced noise that passes as top-40 I music, that's fine, but the university should not serve as handmaiden to ignorance and poor taste. I mean, half the radio band is occupied by similar stations, operated by profes­ sionals. Fortunately, WASU is no longer an embarrassment to me and I have not recently been asked by out-oftowners if the station is for real. Our college station is now acting like a college station, providing a musical alternative for students who are at­ tempting to broaden their perspec­ tives. I personally would like to con­ gratulate whoever has been involved in making these changes and hope the station continues in its present direction. True, some of the individual stu­ dent broadcasters make bad jokes, mutilate the English language and generally act like asses, but that's because WASU is a college radio station. Student broadcasters do this on many college stations. The good news is that ours no longer stands alone as the worst college station to be found. It is now an average col­ lege station, with a flexible format and personnel willing to be in­ novative and creative. I would like to see the newspaper and other campus communication organizations publicize the "new" WASU, since many people aren't fully aware of the changes that have been made. I have already locked WASU into one of the automatic positions on my stereo and believe that a few other people might be pleased to discover that the station has discovered a world of music which was not written simply to pro­ vide sounds for rock videos.

"For the last four to five years in this coun­ try, we have drifted into a financial dreamland," Stockman said. "These deficits have to be financed within one to three ways. "Historically, we have had moderately sized deficits, mostly at the federal level, where expenditures were necessary, and the business cycle was quite small and unnecessary." He said until 1980 the government "bor­ rowed" from our federal reserve from time to time, using the printing press. This was stopped recently so the monetary demand would not exceed the limit. Also until 1980, borrowing from other countries was an option! since the United States was a credited nation. "Leaders of the administration are trying to put together a budget where they have a $T0 million cut. If the problem addressed is left on autopilot and nothing done, by 1988 we will have a $180 billion deficit. This would almost w,vh. inuwuuiuaimosi be as large as the $185 billion deficit in 1984," Stockman said. A breakdown in spending shows part of the reason for the deficit: $4 billion was spent on entitlements, which includes $200 billion for Social Security; $75 billion for medicare; $75 billion for food stamps; and $50 billion spent on smaller programs. Three billion dollars was spent on the defense. "We have had to cut the defense so deep in the last four years because of the deficit, it is down to the rock-bottom, unless we want to radically change our foreign policy," Stockman said. One hundred and fifty billion dollars is spent on interest service. Money is used for the FBI, Coast Guard, and other programs. Small businesses use $2 billion a year and $10 billion goes to the Veterans' Hospital. "What it all adds up to is proof based on behavior that demonstrates results about fun­ damental matters and functions of the govern­ ment. The overall concern of politics is we are not going to tamper with components o. spending. If we go through the budget that way, it will only lead to a whopping tax increase, Stockman said. increase," Mockman Dukakis' speech broadcast to ASU audience By MATT HAWKINS Appalachian Staff Writer Massachusetts Governor and Democratic presidential candidate Michael Dukakis spoke to ASU students and more than 50 college campuses via satellite last Friday. Dukakis's talk centered around interna­ tional relations, reducing the deficit and welfare reform. The remarks lasted about 15 minutes, after which students were allow­ ed to phone in questions for 45 minutes. Dukakis said the US needs to create an economic opportunity and a high standard of living in what he calls an increasingly global economy. "We cannot create economic stability by living off a credit card," he said. "We must , get our fiscal house in order." "We cannot create new opportunities for American workers if our economy is being choked by a $150-$200 billion deficit year after year. "The next president will have an extreme opportunity to build an economic understanding to help shape the forces of change. You don't elect a president to be a tax collector or bookkeeper." Dukakis also touched on financial aid problems of college students across the country. "Our goal is to design a system where students will have a small amount of their income (after college) taken out periodically to help pay off their loans," he said. "No youngster who completes high school, is qualified to do college work and is admitted to college, should ever be denied that opportunity because of financial need," he added. In international relations, Dukakis spoke in defense of nuclear disarmament and peace between nations. "I don't think very much of the Star Wars program," he said. "It's a fantasy and unbelievably expensive." "Its testing and deployment would be il­ legal under the ABM treaty. We have enough problems with weapons on land," he added. Dukakis said he wants the US to work more on relations with Mexico than with Nicaragua. "The present policy with Nicaragua is the worst political fiasco ever," he said. "There is not a democratic country that supports our policy." Dukakis also said the Soviet Union is fail­ ing as a society and that unless that society is opened up they will become a second or third power. When asked about the South Africa con­ flict Dukakis said it is very difficult to be optimistic about the white power structure. We need to impose more severe economic sanctions," iiv said. he oaiu. Adopt-a-Street program a success At least 18 campus groups par­ ticipated in last week's Adopt-AStreet program, sponsored by the Stu­ dent Government Association. The project was directed by Community Affairs chairperson Scott Adams. "It was successful, and I was real pleased with the promptness of the organizations and the way we went about it. They (the groups) came and did as they were .supposed to," Adams said. "Everybody did a good job and everybody involved needs to be commended." Participants included Kappa Alpha, Pi Kappa Phi, the Student Association for Social Work, Omega Psi Phi, Beta Alpha Psi, White Hall, Sigma Kappa, Sigma Phi Epsilon,' Coffey Hall, Alpha Epsilon Rho, Mens Service Club, Delta Zeta, Pi Sigma Epsilon, Phi Beta Lambda, ASU Ambassadors, Kappa Sigma, and Phi Eta Sigma. Each club and organization had a street to clean. Among the 21 streets cleaned were East King Street, Depot Street, Queen Street, Grand Boulevard, Water Street, Howard Street and Locust Street. This was the second year of the pro­ gram. Last year the community asked for ASU students to help in the com­ munity cleanup program, but this year no community organizations were involved. "We didn't get the word out to them," Adams said. "We sent infor­ mation to the Watauga Democrat and it never was published." "This was a new idea and it will take some time for town involvement," Boone mayor Larry Keeter said. "Next year it will pick up, and the town should support it more." seminar tomorrow This is the first time the program was run by SGA and the Community Affairs Committee. Last year the pro­ gram was introduced by town coun­ cilman Bill Rucker. The program was introduced to make the town of Boone more attrac­ tive and to encourage campus involve­ ment within the community. "The community likes to see the students working, and the verbal sup­ port seemed to be good," Adams said By TRENT HUFFMAN Appalachian News Editor "Everybody did a good job and everbody involved needs to be commended." Community Affairs Chairperson Scott Adams "We didn't get it off the groutfd, but this year Scott Adams has run with it and implemented it. Most of the credit goes to him," Keeter said. "The program wasn't run well from their (the town's) angle but the organization was much better, and there was also easier accessibility to the organizations," Adams said. According to Adams, the Adopt-AStreet Program will try to run on a regular basis. "We will try and do it once a semester. We hope to blow it up in the spring semester and get lots of involvement from both community and ASU," Adams said. Certificates of appreciation will be given to all those who participated. "I don't know where and when, but maybe at the last Senate meeting," Adams said.

The ASU AIDS Task Force will be sponsoring a seminar tomorrow from 11:30 a.m. until 1 p.m. in the Student Union Pub entitled, "Straight Talk About Safe Sex." "Whether you're sexually active or not, knowing how to have a safe sex­ ual relationship these days may be a matter of life or death. Making safe sexual decisions involves not only protecting yourself against exposure to AIDS, but also becoming informed about other sexually transmitted diseases as well," Task Force member Gay Clyburn said. Director of ASU's Health Services Evan Ash by will talk about the AIDS virus, how the virus is transmitted, what the symptoms of the disease are and how to protect against it. "I think it should be an interesting meeting because of all the visiting professors," Ashby said.

Brunsden's remarks that capitalism the large amount of profit and involved fuel the pornography industry. "The industrial facet of por­ nography is seldom covered by researchers. It is with the rise of the medium of photography that por­ nography has become a mass industry," Brunsden said. "Por­ nography is part and parcel with the mass industrialization of sex." Brunsden showed a slide show on pornography in advertising and how women's movements in the 1970's had been able to affect pornography in advertising. She said that the usual pattern in pornography is to have a story line centered around the pictures involved. "If comedy is meant to evoke laughter, tragedy meant to evoke tears, in like fashion so also pornography is meant to evoke arousal," she said. Brunsden also discussed the socialist feminist position and the omen Against Violence Against Women (WAVAW), who have ejected to women in pornography. said 'he position of w ™<?sen w- IS that "P°rn°graphy is the Rectification of women because photography is objectification. Por­ nography is the theory to rape's prac­ tice." Brundsen said that pornography is not discrimination, but it is the con­ tinuous repetition of the notion that I ere is a ready willing woman out there. Pornography doesn't cause the sexual status quo, but is, rather, a grotesque symptom of it that serves to perpetuate the status quo," Brunsden said. Shields, who spoke on por­ nography as it relates to censorship, enumerated on two different models of free speech and related patterns of censorship. The Classical Model says that toleration is justified because social value is derived from toleration. It is not only valuable to listen to the diverse views of other people, but necessary because there are some wrong views that must be abolished. The government must be limited, and the people must be the ultimate deci­ sion makers. The Fortress Model, a competing explanation, says that there may be many harms to speech, and the government must act through censor­ ship to limit the majority. Bad speech and ideas must be censored. Shields cited threats to free speech posed by anti-smoking laws, limits of lobbying spending in the federal government, negative advertisements, city ordinances requiring even male joggers to wear shirts, censorship by group libel laws and laws requiring the avoidance of controversy in public schools. "There are virtually no sentiments in this country, no mode of behavior that are not under censorship," Shields added. "Censorship is the second most favorite activity in America." The revocation of visas to foreign dissenters, the labelling of films as "propaganda" and the banning of foreign publications and travel restric­ tions are international examples of suppression of free speech by the United States government, Shields said. faculty discuss censorship regulation SHERWOOD CAPITAL INC A Coreer in the Stockmorket Learn how you con enter the ex­ By JIMMY GLIGNARD citing world of the professional essentially irrational," Cole said.

Vandalism hurts 's reputation c l 5ns a b out the sculptures on campus have been strong and With the Thanksgiving break coming, I felt it would be good to reflect on some of the things we can be thankful about. Getting through this much of the semester is one thing I'm thankful about. Now if you are an atheist, evolutionist or humanist, and don t care to thank God, then Thanksgiving may not be too special for you. 1 guess you could offer a word of thanks to "Alpha Amoeba" or your old uncle orangutan. If we are cosmic accidents, then there is no one to thank. No one is listening. I base my gratitude on the belief that someone is there and is worth my thanksgiving. I have lived on four continents and have been in 17 countries. The governments of those countries have been democracies, socialist states, Islamic regimens and a monarchy. I am thankful for being born in the United States of America. It is the best! a To the Editor: ^ You may not be convinced by my testimony. I would challenge you to go and find out for yourself. The first time I drove across the Sahara desert, I realized how small we are and yet God knows the number of hairs on each of our heads. You may ask, how does all this relate—the United States, how small we are as individuals, and how much God cares? In 1620 at Plymouth Rock, more than 100 people landed. The majority were Christians who estab­ lished government, built schools and set the moral tone. They understood that the freedom of the individual and the strength of a government rested on an utter dependency a dependency on the providence of a loving God. We have had presidents who well understood what have been preserved these many years, in peace and prosperity. We have grown in numbers, wealth and power as no other nation has ever grown. But we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace and multiplied and enriched and strengthened us; and we have vainly imagined, in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own. Intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become too selfsufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us!

If it is not a fight against abor­ tion, it is one against secular humanism. (Maybe Mr. Rairdon would feel more comfortable if he transferred to Bob Jones Univer­ sity.) And when the«e causes become ._ tiresome, there is always the conve­ nient stand-by of literally beating the hell out of people with the Bible. Is the cause of love too abstract for fundamentalist? Probably, because it means giving up control and power over other people. It also means feeding the hungry, and car­ ing for the poor, sick and oppressed. 1 imagine these ideas are quite boring to Mr. Rairdon because they have a LIBERAL tone and they damn sure """ ' pay for TV — •*"— don't p"7 ,v" * * "ministries," theme parks, or obscene defense budgets.

After receiving some very ugly, harassing phone calls, Ashley came to us to express that the last thing that she meant to do was step on toes. We had read the column before it was printed and had thought it to be perfectly com­ plimentary. Ashley only wrote about the experiences that we related to her. Evidently, some people read the column without fully comprehending it. We would like to clarify what we feel is the proper theme of the col­ umn. We feel that she admires our pride in, and our love of, McDowell County. When people from larger cities with more "things" to do complain about their home, we don't—although we do have com­ paratively fewer things to do. Possibly those of you who made those calls are ashamed of our home, and read things into the col­ attitude is surely not one of AGAPE. Education and emotional support are needed until a cure is found. Mr. Rairdon's opinion offers only hatred and condemnation to this minority. As far as I'm con­ cerned, the article was a total waste of space. But hey, I guess that's the liberal, humanistic press, right?

The Senate voted to endorse a $1 increase for the student union fee, a $13 increase for student activities fee, a $5 increase for sports, and a $50 board increase per food option. The Senate voted against a $16 in­ crease for book rental and a $100 in­ crease for room feas. The Senate also discussed im­ plementing another fee to improve the Belk Library facilities. The Senate voted to endorse a $1 increase for the student union fee, a $13 increase for student activities fee, a $5 increase for sports, and a $50 board increase per food option. SGA President Cary Ann Wolf said that the current library facilities could be improved. She said that charging an additional $2 per student per year would generate $22,000 that could be used for the improvement of the library facilities. The Senate also approved a bill to recommend students be notified of fees prior to pre-registration. The in­ dividual charges for classes would be posted beside each individual heading in the registration material. To accommodate these changes in Appalachian Photo by Allison Loyton The SGA Senate met Tuesday night. the pre-registration materials the senate also voted to lengthen the registration newspaper from 48 pages to 52 pages. The Senate also approved a bill that would recommend to the University Calendar Committee that the final ex­ am schedule be shifted up thirty minutes to eliminate 7:30 a.m. exams during the final exam week. "The basic purpose of this bill is to structure the exam schedule with the structure of the class schedule," SGA Senator Joe Panzer said. SGA Rules Committee Chairperson Gramm Spear said the "Adopt-aStreet" Community Clean-Up Pro­ gram will take place this week. "We only have ten people registered to do this and we need more people," Spear said. "We will still be accepting people until Friday after­ noon," he added. Spear said SGA has had a problem getting people from the Boone com­ munity to join the clean-up program. In other action, the Senate also ap­ proved Stephanie Robertson as the SGA Assistant Director of Public Af­ fairs. Academic improvement noted among athletes B> ANDREA ANDERSON AppatochtM «M»ff Writer ASU's student athletes have improved academically over the past few years. Athletic Council Chairman Dr. Alan J. Hauser said the graduation rates of recruited athletes and all other students are nearly the same. The graduation rate for all freshmen who entered in the fall of 1981-1982 and graduated by August of 1986 was .557. The graduation rate for recruited athletes was .553 during the same period. "I think that is quite good," Hauser said. The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) requires that every institution file a report on the academic standing of their athletes, and the University of North Carolina system requires another report. In 1986, 11 of 40 students admitted to ASU as excep­ tions to the admissions standards were athletes. In 1987, none of the 15 students admitted as exceptions were athletes. Starting this year Chancellor John Thomas denies athletes admission to ASU as exceptions from admissions standards. Hauser said the reason athletes were admitted without having to meet all the admissions requirements in the past was because admissions director was also the chairman of ihe athletic council. It was standard policy to make excep­ tions for athletes. Associate Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs Dr. Judith Pulley said student athletes must meet the same standards as other students for admission. "No exceptions arc made just because someone is an athlete," she said. She also said that the admissions policy is flexible. The admissions office takes into account the students background, such as coming from a competitive high school. She said that occasionally exceptions can be made if a student is gifted in one area, if they are just short of the admissions range. "We believe that those students can succeed here," she said. The standards for minority students are not as high, Hauser said. ASU is making an attempt to raise the number of black students on campus. Minority students are admitted if it is felt that they have potential to achieve. "(It is) a good faith effort to enrole minority students," Pulley said. Director of Athletics Jim Gardner said the graduation rate of athletes was outstanding. "It's one of the best in the state, but of course we can always use improvements," he said. "1 think one of the key things you have to give credit to is that we've added an athletic advisor." Academic Advisor for Athletes Brad Berndt said the graduation rate has improved significantly since the begin­ ning of the Athletic Assistance Program four years ago. The Athletic Assistance Program supervises all 18 varsi­ ty sports and approximately 400 student athletes. "No exceptions are made just because someone is an athlete." —Dr. Judith Pu/lev Through this program all freshmen athletes, as well as athletes on academic probation, are required to attend study hall. "The number one goal of this office is graduation," said Berndt. The office uses placement tests to help deter­ mine how to best help the students. "Student athletes place a great deal of confidence in the office," said Berndt. "A ton of students come by for one reason or another." The Learning Assistance Program, through which the Athletic Assistance Program operates, offers free tutoring to athletes and other students who need academic assistance. Other universities pressure faculty to insure that the athletes pass all their courses. Hauser said he is not aware of any similar instances at ASU. "If there would be any attempt to do that, there would be a howl and an outcry," he said. Hauser said there are some misconceptions about athletes. "The vast majority aren't majoring in P.E.," he said. He added that ASU athletes have a variety of majors. "I feel very good about the way that we've come through," he said. Residence halls close earlier to provide additional security By TRENT HUFFMAN Appalachian News Kdilor This semester residence halls have been closing earlier on week nights and weekends to increase the security of residents. Effective this semester all residence halls have begun closing all entrances except their designated entrance at 9 p.m. on week nights and limiting the hours the doors are open on weekends. Assistant Director of Residence Life Rick Geis said the new policy was a response to a problem that the university and residence life office had been having for the last five or six years. "It's been a progressive problem," Geis said. People, some not ASU students, have been entering the buildings at night and going into stu­ dent's rooms for the past several years. Geis said the residence life office didn't want to have an incident where someone goes into a residence hall and causes some trouble such as van­ dalism. "It has cut down on vandalism and the number of illegal entrances into the building," Geis said. "No one has come to us to complain to the best of our knowledge. The only thing we've got back is positive." "It has cut down on vandalism and the number of illegal entrances into the building. No one has come to us to complain to the best of our knowledge. The only thing we 've got back is positive." Assistant Director Residence Life Rick Geis "We figured it would increase security if we could monitor who's coming in and out of the residence hall," Yosef Hollow Area Coor­ dinator Joe Campbell said. "We did it mainly for security," he added. "I always think that I'd rather be safe than sorry," he added.

"39.2 percent of the students had gotten help from guidance counselors," Antonelli said. Because of the overall unreadiness of high school seniors and juniors these requirements will not be in place until the fall of 1990. "It is not a question of who didn't do their job, just that is was a bigger job than expected," Antonelli said. In the meantime, interim standards which are slightly higher than in the past will be in place for the fall of 1988. Admission requirements to any ot the 16 schools in the UNC system for the fall of 1988 will be: four course units in English; two course units in mathmetics, including Algebra I; two course units in science, one physical science and one biological science; two course units in social studies, including one in U.S. History. Admissions to Appalachian requires that the course units in math be either Algebra 1 and Geometry or Algebra I and II, Associate Director of Admissions Cynthia Weaver said. Campbell also said the individual residence hall staff decides when to open the residence hall doors on the weekends. "For the most part they pretty much unlock them." he said. Currently each residence hall has a resident assistant on duty from 7 p.m. until 10 p.m. and a work-study stu­ dent in the residence hall office from 10 p.m. until midnight during the week and until 2 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. From 2 a.m. until 5 p.m. in-hall security students are in the of­ fice to admit residents through the designated entrance. ' We still have a problem with students propping open doors," Campbell said. If a residence hall staff member finds a student propp­ ing open a door they will send the stu­ dent to the student judiciary. East Resident Hall Resident Assis­ tant Mariam Ribeiro said: "I disagree totally because of the fact that there are a lot of people that go to the Quinn Center and library until 12 midnight and it's an inconvenience to the residents. I think there are other See SECURITY Page 3 Residence halls clnce earlier for increased security. Boone ys first snow By TRENT HUFFMAN Appalachian Nrw> Editor The first major snowfall of the year in the Boone area caused only minor problems for ASU students. Assistant Director of ASU's physical plant Jerry McKaskel said that crews had started removing the ice and snow from the ASU campus sidewalks and roads at 6:30 a.m. yesterday. Most of the sidewalks were clear by the time classes started at 8 a.m. "We had a little trouble getting the trucks started this morning but it wasn't really enough snow to make any difference." McKaskel said vesterdav. The icy conditions forced Ihe North Carolina Transportation Department to close Hwv. 321 below Blowing Rock for about an hour and a half, and Hwy. 421 between Boone and North Wilkesboro for about two hours Wednesday morning. All roads were clear by late yesterday morning. "The roads were really bad earlier this morning," Tommy Cook, a crew leader with the Department of Transportation, said. The Watauga County Sheriff's Department said the snow started at about 10 p.m. Tjesday night and no more than two inches had accumulated by Wednesday after­ noon. Appalachian Photo by Allison I Graduate senate wants lengthened library hours By TRENT HUFFMAN Appalachian Nf»s fdilor The Graduate Student Association Senate (GSAS) held their last meeting of the semester Monday afternoon in the graduate office in East Hall. Dr. Richard L. Barker from the Belk library spoke to the senate on the possibility of having the library's hours extended over holidays and breaks for graduate students. "A lot of the graduate students tend to do their thesis and research over the holidays," GSAS secretary/treasurer Michelle Rissolo said. "They were put in a bind. They either had to travel to Greensboro or wait to do their research." Barker said it was possible the library's hours may be extended next year over breaks and holidays for graduate students only. The GSAS also invited all students interested in graduate school to attend a Graduate Forum on November 19 at 3:30 p.m. in EG. Greer. Call 262-2130 for more information. New reference database available in Belk Library By JULIE WELLS Appalachian staff Writer Mppoiocn/on rhoto by Allison layton First snow of ihe season blankets the Boone area. Belk Library has installed a new computerized research system called InfoTrac that offers students an easier and less time-consuming way of finding research materials. The InfoTrac system consists of three computer terminals which contain references to a half million articles. The periodicals database provides articles drawn from business, technical, and general interest journals published during the last three years. The government publications database consists of the most current seven to eight years of indexing of the "Monthly Catalog of the U.S. Government Publications." Both databases are updated monthly. Operating the new system requires no manual because each step is self explanatory.

NCTV is presently only available to students living on campus but plans to work toward making it available to students living off campus as well. "There are a large number of cable subscribers who live off campus that are college students and want to see NCTV, Baker said. "We are trying to work with Boone cable because there are a lot of students who really enjoy it." Baker added that she felt the free program might be enjoyed by others living in Boone also. Academic Affairs has invested .ap­ proximately $5,000 into equipment for the program. However, NCTV is free programming because it is com­ mercially sponsored.

Reference librarian Allen Antone said. "They seem to spend more lme usi than other references." , , , "We as reference librarians have trouble getting to it to help students because the students are there," she added. . Students have found InfoTrac is a lot quicker than going to the indexes. "At least you have something that you can carry around with you. ou c on t have to sit down and write it all out because the computer prints it out for you. I've found that very helpful," one student said. Although InfoTrac is very efficient, it is limited to more general periodicals. However, the library is hoping to get a similar system that would carry more specialized indexes to be used for more in-depth research. The new system will be replacing "Magazine Index," "Business Periodicals Index" and "Government Publications Index," which have been available on microfilm in the library. The InfoTrac system costs $11,000. The Belk Library was able to receive the system at a reduced cost because the library discontinued the Magazine, Business Periodicals and Government Publications Indexes. The money used for updating the indexes was used to help purchase the new InfoTrac system. WELCOME TO TH£ kTT- VrVTii'.". „T.:»«««!..«• V- By MARY K.

Shaver By AMEE SMITH Appalachian Features Writer Atomic dreams or the red menace? Last week I wrote a story for a class I'm in It was made up of a series of dreams of a man who keeps dreaming he woke up, generally meant to be funny. This would be of no significance whatsoever r r a c k " ' 8 b ™ « ' » « • » * », !ama all'overhimWyerS'" ^ th°Ught 3S he was awak™ed Liws&r*,he day y°" c a m e r»i," -»- «»•* * by his children scrambling •«• "Uh. so it is. Now go get ready while me and Momma get up " It is testament to a father's love that half an hour later he was in the backyard cook,ng steaks at ten o'clock on a Saturday morning. The children were play,ng around hurt to the distress of their mother, who was afraid they 3 might get burned. ''This is what it's all about" he murmured to himself as he smiled lovingly 63 at his family. A flash behind him brought his head around to see the mushroom cloud ris­ ing to the northeast. Powerless he watched, hearing it roar like the end of the world. That dream is something I am in constant fear of. I have looked at the situa t'on and have concluded that it is only a matter of time as things stand I guess it's pretty obvious where this is leading. I don't like atomic bombs and if you do, go read something else, because this is just gonna tee you war mongers off. Last fall I wrote an article about disarmament after Reagan came back from Iceland. I criticized him tor passing up an opportunity to really do something tangible to make the world safe for democracy; to make it safe for humanity really. Two weeks later we got a letter about the article. The letter contained phrases like the idea of this world living in peace without nuclear weapons is very childish" and "nuclear weapons are an essential part of our lives " I think he was referring to the fact that all those missiles are keeping the godless red menace from sweeping over the rest of Europe. I haven't checked lately, but the last time I heard, a heck of a lot of those Europeans would rather take their chances with the Russians. 1 am not a hysterical liberal and I certainly have no illusions about the ultimate goals of Leninism. But look at history. Looneys get in charge of countries all the time. Some are in charge right now. No one sane would use the bomb now. The Russians have too much to lose, as do we. But what if Hitler lasted another few years? He came within months of get­ ting the bomb and when the war was going bad he would have used it, too. We did. The world will always have Caligulas and Hitlers and Kadafys. Someday Kadafy, or someone else with nothing to lose will get the bomb and blow up New York. 1 would like to see the capacity of our leaders to over-react reduced. It is not possible to just get rid of the bomb; the knowledge cannot be destroyed. Atomic bombs have been let out of Pandora's box and cannot be put back. But we can reduce the number to a point where the life of the planet isn't in danger every second. We must. 'What sets jazzercise apart from other exercise programs is the em­ phasis on quality and safety. It stresses emotional as well as physical fitness, stated Cindy Stigall, a cer­ tified instructor, teaching in Boone Heights Shopping Center. Stigall said the program is a followthe-Ieader kind of exercise program appropriate for all ages and ranges of exercise experience. "For those who need it, the instruc­ tor demonstrates a lighter side jazzer­ cise program," Stigall added. Founded in 1969 by jazz dancer Judy Shepard Misset, the 60 minute jazzercise program is carefully balanc­ ed to provide a physiologically sound workout. The choreography is easy to follow and no dance experience is necessary to reap the benefits of the program. Stigall became interested in jazzer­ cise when she was living in Oklahoma. When she moved here, she was disap­ pointed to find no jazzercise pro­ gram. So, after the birth of her baby, she became a certified instructor at a Jazzercise Instructor Convention in Atlanta. The result of her work is seen every Tuesday and Thursday at 9:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Classes run an hour at a time. The program is held in the upper level of the mall in suite 202. Classes are $20.00 for eight ses­ sions a month, averaging $2.50 a class. 1 m overwhelmed with the success of the program." "I have about 40 students, and I hope to expand the program when more people become certified and then more times can be offered." By J. SHAVER Appalachian Staff Writer National Geography Awareness Week will take place November 15-21. "This all came about as a result of the efforts of the National Geographic Society to help improve the quality of geography instruction in the United States," professor of geography and planning Dr. William Imperatore said. These efforts soon became suc­ cessful. "Senator Bill Bradley (New Jersey), Robert Stafford (Vermont) and Leon Panetta (California) in­ troduced into Congress the idea that Congress make a resolution declaring National Geography Awareness Week," Imperatore said. By MARY K. MILLER Appalachian Staff Writer I lis["SI as niany college students itrt°Ver' ^'s in,erests changed many and so did his major. He e to management and na !'® d wh C,in8 ''ke many of his friends vjlh°, 'Pcidentally didn't graduate Utti Us'ness degrees). Finally, in his 0l e Otn j >' ar, he made a decision to ioJ.fte his degree in the shortest fine 1 time' w'th the help of 3 ;is ra' college advisor, Gaito turned lot rCcreati°n minor into a major, ig a3 Very scientific method of chooslis Career> he admits, but it worked. recreation classes as well as six years' experience working with the YMCA in his hometown led him toward a major better suited to his personal interests. Making that connection is something Gaito feels is important in career choices. "If 1 went to school all over again, I would take classes I enjoyed and learn as much as possible," Gaito said. By taking a part-time job in college, Gaito unknowingly made another move in the direction of his future career. During his junior and senior years at ASU, he worked at Alpine Ski Center in Banner Elk selling skis. The job was fun and provided him with an opportunity to meet lots of people—something he really enjoyed. And since he'd been skiing since age four, he was certainly qualified for the job. As many professionals in the work­ ing world can testify, the key to get­ ting the best job is being in the right place at the right time. After graduating in 1986, he took a job selling insurance in Raleigh and worked part-time for the Alpine store there. Fie soon became dissatisfied with the insurance sales and found out that the Alpine store in Banner Elk had an opening for a full-time accessories buyer. Gaito jumped at the opportunity to go back to work for Alpine and return to the moun­ tains. The buying position later developed into equipment manager for the sales floor. Gaito's promotion to data systems operation manager is another exam­ ple of being at the right place at the right time. Alpine had recently purchased a computer system for inventory con­ trol and couldn't get the system run­ ning. Everyone in the office had tried and failed to get the system opera­ tional when Gaito sat down and patiently "debugged" the system. He is now in charge of the com- _ puter inventory system for all four Alpine stores in Charlotte, Banner Elk, Raleigh and Columbia. S.C. Even though he did not apply his education directly to a career in recreation, Gaito feels that his degree has been invaluable to him in his work. "In college you learn how to learn. Experience in recreation teaches peo­ ple how to communicate," Gaito said. The skills he developed in put ting other people's interests and enjoyment above his own helped him learn how to deal with people in the business world. Assistant HEPELS professor Del Bachert said recreation graduates need to look into areas that aren't obvious recreation career oppor­ tunities, just as Gaito did. "Students need to be creative when they're looking for jobs," Bachert said. Gaito may not be managing and directing recreational activities, but he works for a company that's in the business of supplying equipment and technical support for those purposes. Bachert added the outlook for employment opportunities in the recreation field are expected to increase. A study completed by the President's Commission on Americans and Outdoors predicts increasing interest in recreational and leisure activities will create even more demand for qualified recreational managers. Bachert said students interested in recreational careers should have a desire to deal with people on a personal level. In Gaito's situation, he feels a per­ son interested in recreation as a career must be motivated by more than just money. The long, hard hours he devotes to his career means that he really enjoys what he does for a living. With such a time-consuming job, he also has to do more planning in order to take time off. Calender to hit the stands By GREG RiCHEY Appalachian Staff Writer It is no longer just an idea, it has become a reality. ASU is going to possess a calendar which features the women of our beloved campus. The calendar, which is aptly titled "The Women of Appalachian", is due out later this week, and since it is really the first calendar of its nature to hit Appalachian, it is quite eagerly awaited. A great majority of the money raised by the calen­ dar is going to help send the staff and its work to represent Appalachian na­ tionally in a competition next year, but some por­ tion of proceeds will go to benefit the Special Olym­ pics, and other smaller local charities, so it will be a fund-raising event as well. Appalachian Pholo by K.ilh Jon.« Concentration is required! ASU geographically literate Graduates change interest How does a recreation major get a job as 9 data systems operation manager? It's not unusual for college graduatess to move into careers that do not direct­ ly relate to their major, and Steve Gaito's career path is a good ex­ ample of this. ^ Gaito received L I ~ his bachelor s r degree in outdoor W r e c r e a t i o n A management from ' ASU in May of 1986, and is curA rently Alpine Ski L Center's data r • —4 systems operation ^ manager.

NOVEMBER 12, 1987 On November 4, Governor Jim Martin declared the same week Na­ tional Geography Awareness Week for the state of North Carolina. Imperatore said there is good reason for the emphasis on geography. "Our nation is somewhat geographically illiterate," he said. "For the United States to be able to compete in the world markets we have to have a geographically literate population." Among activities planned is a booth in the Student Union where students can pick up information about careers and majors in geography. Also planned is a raffle of beachball globes and giveaways of balloons and posters proclaiming Na­ tional Geography Awareness Week. There will be a geography display all week in Belk JJbrary. On Tuesday, November 17, there will be a mgss launching of helium balloons with postpaid post cards at­ tached. The cards request finders to fill in the point where the balloon was found and drop the card in the mail. The cards will go to the National Geographic Society, who will plot the distribution. The launching will be followed by the presentation of a commemorative atlas to the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, Dr. William Byrd. Dr. Jack Ives of the University of Colorado will be speaking Monday at 8 p.m. in I.G. Greer Auditorium on the future of mountain environments. Many activities are also planned in local public schools. The sponsors of this project, Phi Sigma Epsilon, have undertaken pro­ duction of the calendar for ASU because the contract for the UNCCharlotte chapter just recently ex­ pired, and it looks to be a huge suc­ cess for Phi Sigma Epsilon, and ASU overall. A great majority of the money rais­ ed by the calendar is going to help send the staff and its work to repre­ sent Appalachian nationally in a com­ petition next year, but some portion of the proceeds will go to benefit the Special Olympics, and other smaller local charities, so it will be a fundraising event as well. The calendar itself features the work of ASU photographer David Morris. It contains twelve shots of our beautiful state and beautiful ASU women. The pictures are mostly full length shots, and the background set­ tings will include such incredible local scenery as the new viaduct, Tweetsie Railroad, and Grandfather Moun­ tain. All in all, it sounds like a splendid effort, with girls representing the freshmen through senior classes, and many sororities also. The projected cost is a reasonable three dollars, so get out and support ASU. You can't lose. Bald Room offers home-cookin By GEORGE L. HII.BISH Appalachian Slaff Writer Nostalgic places always seem to stick in one's mind when they look back on a time gone by. The country store, the little church, the old timey soda shop. Places that are no longer with us. Fortunately, Boone is blessed with one of the neatest places to go and have lunch. A place where a person can drift back to a time past where you could always depend on a friend­ ly smile, good food and a homey atmosphere. I'm referring to the Bald Room in the back of Boone Drug located on King Street. Most people look at Boone Drug as a place for the locals to meet, not really a student hangout. Students do frequent the place for breakfast and a quick bite at the counter but it always takes on the appearance of a non-college establish­ ment. The Bald Room does not follow that trend. If anything, it is primarily a place for students to go and sit down and enjoy a plate lunch or a TIPS £1 on Restaurant double hamburger. The atmosphere offers that hometown familiarity. Students are met with a warm greeting by a staff that reminds you of Mom. Everybody is well taken care of. There's nothing on the menu that's over $4.50 and that's great for a stu­ dent budget. A blue plate special offered daily gives a person more than the quick burger, but if you're a die hard hamburger addict, you can get one oHhe best burgers in town with just about everything for around $3. If asked to give the Bald Room a rating of one to four, four being the highest, I'd definitely give it a four. I enjoyed the way everybody was relaxed and satisfied with their lunch. The service is good and there's no problem with getting in and eating lunch within 30 minutes or so. Sometimes I'm on a tight schedule, and being able to get in and out is important. The Bald Room is open for lunch from 11:30 a.m. to about 2:30 p.m. For those interested in their plate specials, they change daily and cost $3.50, no matter what. An example would be fried flounder, hush pup­ pies, cold slaw and tea. Be sure to get there early if you want a plate though, they always run out before they close. If you miss the plate go for the double cheeseburger. They're excellent. Bon Appetit Tina,"What you get is what you see Rv NICOLE PAR CONS Bv Nirni.F. PARSONS AppalH<hi»n staff Writer Hot.. .spine-tingling.. .sensational are good words to describe the Tina Turner concert in Chapel-Hill last Fri­ day night. Watching Tina Turner on stage was like riding a roller-coaster.. .all the fun and excitement you could want. No one puts more emotion, move­ ment and feeling in their performance than Tina Turner. From her first song through her last, she jumped, wiggled and danced like she was possessed. Clothed in a black mini-skirt and spiked black boots with her wild hair and red lips, she set the mood. You xnew at once it was going to be an outrageous time. Flirting with the audience, she slanted her eyes, pouted her lips and asked, "Are you ready for me because I'm ready for you?" Turner sang to an almost sold-out crowd. The audience reacted by standing on their feet and singing along with Turner, especially when she held her microphone out to the audience. Turner did not use elaborate stage designs or light shows and instead provided her own special effects Backed by her eight man band, most of whom are from London, Turner played for two hours and * came back for two encores. She opened with " What You Get Is What You See," then moved into all her popular tunes such as "Private Dancer," "It's Only Love," and "Typical Male." She thrilled the audience with an older favorite, "Proud Mary." The sound system was suprisingly clear for the amount of volume put out. The lyrics also were understand­ able as the audience matched the words that Turner sang. Tina Turner is one concert not to miss. You will not be disappointed. Instead, you'll be captivated by ber performance. By the end you'll leave singing the lyrics and wanting more. �THFAPPALACHIAN, THURSDA Y, NOVEMBER 12, 1987 Calendar Announcements Taiwan Scholarships—The American Association of Stale Colleges and Universifies/Taiwan Scholarship competi­ tion is offering 16 fuk tuition and fees scholarships to tie Mandarin Training Center in Taipei, Taiwan A monthly sfpend of S175 is included Scholarships are for students who wish to begin a' continue study of the Chinese lan­ guage and culture Deadline tor appScatons is January 15, 1988.

S icrv �THE APPALACHIAN THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDA Y, NOVEMBER 12, 1987 DIVERSIONS 'Gators-Another great show Ashley McAdoo v SHFI I FV k AFi-ID By SHELLEY KAEHR Appalachian Slaff Writer Life in the fast lane ,'m sure you've heard lots of Pe°P'e complain about the lack of things to do n Boone. I'm as guilty as anyone else of this, in fact I often complain about the lack >f things to do in my hometown, Greensboro, which is much larger and twice 'oS"8 ^ ° amaZeS 3 fCW °f my friends from McDowell McD^'l County is much smaller than my city, and it's a whole county think that there has got to be some form of entertainment in a city of hat size. Well, there probably is, but I have yet to find it. 1 asked ^llary' Rus'y- and v>ck>e what exactly does one do for thrills in dcDowell County, and they came up with a sizeable list of happening things o do. But first, background on McDowell. rhey ^0nellxu0ne.higfhuSCh001' (McDowe11 High), and two towns, Marion md Old Fort. The rest of the county is divided into areas. Hilary is from P.G. chich stands for Pleasant Gardens, Rusty is from Rocky Pass, and Vickie cell, she tells people that she's from Marion, because no one has ever heard of )ld Fort where she's actually from. I have known her for a year and I always lelieved that she was from Old Fort, which sounded just ridiculously small hen one day I discovered that she was actually from Crooked Creak which is tiny suburb of Old Fort, which is a tiny suburb of Marion. Kinda confusing Anyway, there are plenty of things to do in McDowell County. Hilary menioned the time honored tradition of Ghost Hunting. This involves going down 3 the old Yancey House and the Yancey Bridge and waiting for the ghosts to PPear. They never do, but Hilary says that if you leave Vickie there long nough, she gets spooked. Comment from Vickie—"It's spooky." Rusty said that he always enjoyed "cruising Stumptown," (whatever) and laying basketball at the Rec Center, which is the ugly gym of what used to be IcDowell High. He also mentioned cruising Main St. in Marion, and the 'izza Hut parking lot, and up the "5-lane" to the Bowling Alley. "Why, I don't know." Vickie added that she used to enjoy driving around and looking for Ricky /lesser. Also popular were hanging out at Funland, and Rusty swears that if ou want to impress a girl, you take her to the Glenwood Exit Western Steer. McDowell County boasts several well-known eating establishments. Some if these are even nationally known such as the Hardee's, the McDonald's, the lurger King, the Pizza Hut, and the Wendy's. One of each in the county. I ust get a kick out of that. There's also a Kentucky Fried Chicken, an Italian •lace, a Chinese place, a drive-in place, and a place that I've heard a lot about nd want to try, called Mustard's. McDowell County may not be overflowing with nightlife, and certainly 3oone is bigger, but it's inhabitants speak of it fondly. I thought that Hilary summed it all up nicely with the words, "Don't get me rrong, we were having fun. People from big cities might think that there's othing to do, but we never knew it (that there was nothing to do,) so we had un." Last Thursday, Ashley McAdoo (the Diversions Editor) called and asked me to do a review of the Alligator's show at the Klondike Cafe on Saturday night. Since I love blues and had already planned on going, I agreed. My friends and I arrived at the Klondike around 8:15 to get a good seat. There were already about 10 people there waiting eagerly to hear the blues. The Alligator's began their first set shortly after 9 p.m. and the audience went wild. One obviously intoxicated .... guy jumped up, danced around, and even stole the microphone right out of lead singer Bill Cannell's hands. Just about the time the place was really getting packed, Billy Vinson's bass string broke. It took about 15 minutes for a replacement bass to ar­ rive, but the audience didn't seem to mind at all. Playing an unfamiliar bass was no problem for Vinson though because he jams on any bass he picks up. There was one other problem: Can­ nell's voice was being drowned out by the guitars. The sound engineer quickly fixed this problem, and the Alligators sounded great the rest of the night. One of the best parts of the show was the guitar solos by Mike Conway and Chris Clapp. These guys can real­ ly make those guitars sing the blues! Scott Post's drumming was so intense that he actually knocked out the lamp that was hanging above his drum set. And as usual, Cannell's vocals were the icing on the cake. The Alligators are a very talented band and played several originals such as Conway's "Someone Else's Town." They also did two new songs written by Vinson "Mad Dog Blues" which describes the miserable after­ The highlights of some current albums By BILL BALDWIN Appalachian Slaff Wriler THE ALARM—"Eye of the Hurricane" Side one is called "Folklore," side two is called "Electric," and the band chose to print curious but tantalizing fragments of their lyrics on the album package. 1 was concerned that a great band had hidden themselves in a cloud of pretentiousness, but that was before I heard the music on "Eye of the Hurricane." Though not as satisfying as "Strength," their previous LP, the new release from the Alarm is far better than anything else that you're likely to buy or hear today. A lot of people (who have probably never heard the Alarm) have decided that the band is a U2 clone. This description is not accurate and definitely short­ changes one of the most creative current recording bands. Sure, there are some similarities in the sounds of U2 and the Alarm, but the comparison doesn't go very deep. One significant difference is that the Alarm write and sing about people and relationships, rather than U2's songs about politics and religion. The reason that I prefer the Alarm is that they're not quite as pleased with themselves as are Bono and the boys. THE DREAM ACADEMY—"Remembrance Days" I absolutely love this album.. .the music is creative, the lyrics are clever and thought provoking. If you enjoyed their debut album, you won't be disap­ pointed with this effort. If you need something different to listen to while studying, or to veg out while alone with your favorite beverage, this one's for you. However, if you want a loud party album to enjoy with several friends while you irritate your neighbors, look for something else like the Brandos. The standout cut from "Remembrance Days" is "Ballad in 4/4." THE BRANDOS—"Honor Among Thieves" This one rocks. I have no idea what to compare it to—nobody else seems to be doing the same kind of straight-forward rock anymore. The song "Gettysburg" (the one that is being played on MTV) reminds me a little of R.E.M., but the Brandos are nothing like R.E.M. There are several great songs on this album. My personal favorites are "Nothing to Fear" and "In My Dreams." THE SMITHS—"Strangeways, Here We Come" The Smiths are no more, and rumor has it that Johnny Marr has joined the Pretenders and that Morrissey is planning a solo album. "Strangeways, Here We Come," is their last collaborative album, and definitely a treat for Smith fans. During the song "A Rush and a Push and the Land is Ours," it is quite amusing to hear Morrissey growl several times. This is definitely one of the Smiths most upbeat songs, and the style is repeated later when the normally too-bored-for-words Morrissey seems almost overjoyed about his "Girlfriend in a Coma." Repeated listenings have made these two songs quite humorous, so for a good chuckle, listen for them on WASU. If you enjoyed the bitter lyrics from the Smiths' last album, you won't be disappointed. "Paint a Vulgar Picture" tells about how the Smiths were abused by their record company, and they are obviously not happy about it. "Unhap­ py Birthday" has Morrissey wishing someone just that, and it is loaded with bitterness. Just in case anyone was worried, Morrissey reaffirms his position as King of Mope Rock on "Last Night / Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me," one of the weepiest songs that he's ever done. If Mope Rock is your thing, there's enough of it on this album to keep you happy (or depressed) for days. Answering all of the fans who want to know why the Smiths broke up, Morrissey makes the musical statement, "Stop Me if You Think You've Heard This One Before." It seems that the Smiths decided that their viability and creativity as a group had expired. Too bad that not all bands have the sense to stop recording when they start recycling their material, pr when they become boring.

I played football here from 1983 until 1986, and am presently working as a graduate assistant on the ASU coaching staff. I've watched us (the football program) come from being the laughing stock in the league, to being one of the best teams in I-AA college football In 1984, when we went 4-7, we got beat 34-7 by Western Carolina on our own home field. The game probably wasn't even that close, but we were never 'booed at any point during that game. On Saturday when we captured our second straight conference title we (most notably the offense and quarterback Todd Payton) were booed. Todd Payton's record as the starting quarterback at this university is 23-8-1. There have been many quarterbacks in the past who have had better passing statistics than Payton, but none can equal his record in the win/loss column I m sure that any of the past quarterbacks in the ASU archives would rather have Payton's record (two Southern Conference championships) than all of [their passing yards and touchdown passes. r ™Payt0n isnt Dan Marino- He can't throw the ball 60 yards down the ie The spiral on the ball isn't so tight that you can hang your clothes on it He doesn t throw for over 300 yards a game Dan Marino plays football in the NFL, and gets paid over a million dollars a year to do the things he does.

Athlete of the WBP IC Cannon sacks Herd; wins second title By SABRINA SELLS Appalachian Staff Writer If you weren't one of the more than 14,000 fans who showed up for last Saturday's football game against Marshall, you missed an awesome display of Mountaineer defense that stopped the Southern Conference's most explosive offense. Appalachian Photo by ASU SID Rayford Cannon Leading tne defensive attack was enior lineman Rayford Cannon from ialisbury. He was credited with 2Zi acks against Marshall's quarterback or|y Petersen, the Southern Contrence's single-season record holder ar total offense and passing offense. i addition, Cannon had five ressures and nine total tackles. For is efforts, he is The Appalachian Ihlele of the Week. At only 6-2, 205, Cannon's success on the defensive line at ASU has not been easy. However, Cannon feels that his size has worked to his advan­ tage. My size is not a disadvantage because my speed more than makes up ^or 'U he said. "It's nice to know that my bigger opponents can't keep up with me. I just feel that the bigger they are, the harder they fall." Defensive line coach Brad Lawing agrees that Cannon's size does not hinder his performance. I know that he's not very big for a defensive lineman, but he does a great job in the position," Lawing said. e tried to play him at linebacker, but it just didn't work out. He's always been a lineman and he feels more comfortable doing what he knows best." Cannon is the Mountaineer's passrush specialist, and his performance in that position has been outstanding Last year, he set an ASU record with five sacks in one game against David­ son. He also topped the team in total number of sacks (9), tackles for loss (10), and caused fumbles (3) last year. Lawing was prepared to use Can­ non s ability to the Mountaineer's ad­ vantage against Marshall, too. "We had a special defense designed for him Saturday that tilted him on the center," Lawing said. "This way we would get him into a one-on-one blocking situation. Any time Cannon gets into that position, we are assured of great pressure." Cannon liked the defensive set up Saturday, especially the way it allow­ ed him to make essential tackles. The defense capitalized on my speed See ATHLETE Page 10 is one of the SC's best linemen.

"Coach Taaffe and his staff have done a great job changing them from a passing team to a wishbone team," said Woods. "We must be at our best if we plan on slowing them down." Defensively the Bulldogs are tough and disciplined, led by defensive lineman Scott Thompson. Thompson was the Southern Con­ ference Defensive Player of the Year in 1986.

According to his recently released booked, Heir to a Dream, it took a much greater and higher inspiration than basketball to make his life whole. Maravich is an NBA Hall of Famer and one of the most prolific scorers ever to play the game. He still holds records for the highest career and single season scoring. From the day he was born to Press and Helen Maravich, Pete lived and breathed basketball. Press, a star at Davis and Elkins College, worked his way up through the coaching ranks. As a child, Pete was able to learn from one of the nation's best and most intense teachers in the land, his dad. Pete instantly fell for the game, coming up with new and inventive ways to practice drills and become more efficient with the roundball. ~ Press didn't push Pete into the game, but there was pressure—pressure to live up to dad's expectations, and later, dreams. How could Pete not feel somewhat pushed into the game? He was constantly around the sport, attending his dad's practice sessions. tion that lifted him above his drinking habits. Unfortunately, alcohol was the cause of Helen's death. Pete's mom had done all she could to help nurture Pete's desire for the game, while sup­ porting Press' coaching career. But the constant talk of basketball that flooded the Maravich house drove her to the bottle. For all of Pete's pro career, he wanted to win a championship for his dad and fulfill the dreams Press could never reach as a coach. Press only wanted Pete and himself to push the game to its farthest reaches; do things more imaginative and inventive than fans had ever seen before. When Press was fired from LSU in the early 1970's, he took the first of­ fer that came his way, against Pete's advice. That offer came from Ap­ palachian State, where the Maravich family would experience their most difficult times. Three atrocious years brought only 14 wins and much grief. Press was so involved in his profession, he couldn't help but bring the bitterness home. This took an even greater toll on Helen and her alcoholism that six weeks at Duke could not cure. For Helen, suicide was the only cure Helen's death put an all-too-harsh period on Press' stay in Boone Pete only after finding the inspira­ tion of Christ was able to go back and decipher his father's intentions. But Fete could only rebel While the only thing Pete ever wanted to do was win, it was his over­ board showmanship that always seemed to bring negative reaction from the media. Despite Pistol's incredible scoring outbursts, the press clamored for his dismissal at Atlanta and often in New Orleans. Teams don't win champion­ ships on the play of "hot dogs" like Pistol Pete, according to the newspapers. The great tradition and teamwork of the Boston Celtics multi-championship winners, had bled all over the sport. Pete fought another type of war-the war with alcohol. During his days at LSU and in the NBA, Pistol would find solace in a six pack until late in his life when he heard a divine inspira­ Pete and Press had the opportunity o claim a championship together as !y foagbtit eir way to the finals of the National Invitation Tournament They would face powerful Marquette' The night prior to the final game' same, % Pete got drunk with some F t was unable to function ver next day.

Seniors Joye and Haas lead Soikers By AMEE SMITH ly Appalachian Maff Wriler The Appalachian State volleyball team took three of four games to win their match over first-place East Ten­ nessee State and cinch third place in this weekend's Southern Conference tournament. "When we won the first game, I knew we'd won the match," ASU Coach Traci Blankenship said. "It was in their hearts—they wanted it." The Lady Apps 18-16, 15-2, 14-16, 15-11 victory over the Lady Bucs im­ proves them to 7-5 in the SC, preced­ ed by ETSU and Furman. The last time the Bucs met the Apps, ASU lost in five games. Blankenship blamed the loss on a lack of poise. "Last night we had our poise and we held it during crucial times," she said. "If we hadn't held our poise in the fourth game, we might not have won the match. "Our main strength last night was that the girls played together. They picked ETSU's weaknesses and played upon them. Our main weakness was missing crucial serves. For seniors Donna Joye and Angela Haas this victory was even sweeter for it was their last game played on the Varsity Gym court. » * Donna and Angela were ag­ gressive and ready to play," Blanken­ ship said. "Their strengths helped lead the team to a victory. They were unstoppable. Blankenship was quick to credit her two setters, Kris Zubay and Valerie Patterson. Zubay's offensive leader­ ship and Patterson's digs on the defensive end helped keep the Lady Apps one step ahead of ETSU. "The thing 1 told the girls before they went out was that volleyball is made up of hard work, moments and memories," Blankenship said. "And I think they succeeded in creating some good moments." J he Lady Apps open the SC tourney Friday as Marshall plays host to the tournament. The third place Mountaineers face the Lady Herd in the opening round and with a win would tackle second-seeded Furman.'

His presence on the field was a key to all of the special teams, success, too. "He's a role player on the team," Lawing said. "He doesn't always start, but he plays when he's needed and really comes through. He's on every special team we have, so he's very valuable." Cannon has enjoyed playing foot­ ball at ASU, and he's sure he's going to miss it. "I'd like to continue playing after college, but because of my size I'll probably just stick to coaching," Cannon said. "I don't want to coach as a profession, but I'd like to help out in my spare time because I like to work with children." For the remainder of the year, though, Cannon just wants to play as hard as he can. "I would love to win the national championship and finish number one in the nation as a senior," he said.

(Insert sarcasm here). First, this statement says that by accident of birth, you came to exist on a piece of land which is con­ trolled by others and if you don't like what they do with it, well then you can go somewhere else! To answer all of those who have made this state­ ment to me or others in the past: I would love to go somewhere else for a while and find out the truth about what it is like to live in other places. Without the experience of having lived abroad, I have no idea how to compare life in America with life in SomeOtherPlace. But, my income is taxed to death, and I cannot afford to go anywhere, not even to Raleigh. Besides, my grand old country won't let me go just anywhere. Americans travelling abroad are restricted from going to certain parts of the world, and to go to a host of places abroad, the bureaucratic nonsense one has to go through is enough to discourage the heartiest of travellers Another favorite complaint of those who can't stand to have someone criticize America is "why don't you vote?" And if you do vote, then it's well, you voted, so shut up." Only 20 percent of the American people voted in the last election. Shouldn t this inform Washington that 80 percent of the public is dissatisfied with the lack of choice? And even if you do vote, this does not guarantee David Farthing didates for political office are not required to uphold any promises made to the people during campaign time. The problem with majority rule in the first place is that almost half of the entire population of citizens won't be represented anyway. The politi­ cians are supposed to represent the 51 percent or more who won the election. And if you think that a vote equals representation in America today then Money buy, pone',.alwayThiTb'Son'tat^ and ,1 always will. The nolmcians in oar .overnm™, and it always will. The politicians in our government are far more interested in representing groups which have the money to help keep them in office. Then the politicians help promote laws which keep the money in the hands of those who support them. This system works to keep money out of the hands of the non-rich and make voting fairly worthless. trom the top down. But, I have become increasingly* aware of my helplessness within the American system. Without a voice through voting, I am left with the option of civil disobedience, which can result in a nice, long prison term. Fighting for freedom through less freedom doesn't appeal to me at all. 1 am not that lucky to live in America. If I lived in Russia I could still think for myself. Many Russians ' do. The only major difference is that I would not ' necessarily be able to express my views in print or out loud in public. After working for this j newspaper, I have discovered that one cannot ev.-f press oneself freely and completely here in America either. There are too many court cases where it;has been established that the only speech protected iy the first amendment is commercial speech, or speech in order to promote business.

I am sick and tired of reading all the complaining that David Farthing feels he must share with the readers of The Appalachian! Not once have I ever seen a worthy complaint written by Mr. Farthing. In his latest attack, which is his opinion that public schools in America are mere tools for prop­ aganda, he does nothing but make it all the more obvious that he is just complaining to annoy someone and lo take a side that seems revolu­ tionary. Well he's definitely annoyed somebody—and that's me! First of all, I'd like to see what this country would be like if parents in this country weren't "required" to send their children to school until at least they were sixteen! Mr. Far­ thing complained of the amount of illiterates that graduate from public schools. Certainly the amount of people not capable of reading a McDonald s billboard would be even greater if these children were al­ lowed to just stay home instead. Secondly, what kind of statement is this? "Question: What country of the world requires people to turn their children over to the state at the of six for twelve yenrs of political indoctrination? Answer: The United States of America." Mr. Farthing is doing exactly the same thing he is accusing the U.S. govern­ ment of doing—putting out prop­ aganda. Thirdly, the sole purpose of schooling is not political indoctrina­ tion. Granted, there is a lot of political socialization going on in the schools; but at least in the real world, American citizens have the right to choose whether or not they publicly support the system. Go to the Soviet Union and try to publish one anti-governmental document Mr. Farthing! Fourthly, why can't Mr. Farthing see that it's the special interest groups like the fundamentalists that are wanting to tell people what exactly it is that their children can read and learn about in school. It's not the state! After all, it's the state that wants to teach about birth con­ trol, the spreading of AIDS, evolu­ tion juxtaposed with creation, and other non-political oriented subjects. It's these interest groups that turn them into political issues. In my opinion, we have more reason to tear the conservative fundamentalists than anyone like the Klan or the neo-Nazi's, not that the main objec­ tive is too separate—control. In my opinion, it's people like David Farthing and John Cox (a former columnist for The Appalachian and author of the arti­ cle "Why I Hate My Country") that ought to reconsider exactly what they're saying. If they really despise the way things are run in America, and all they want to do is bitch, then they should leave the country and give up their citizenship. It's one thing to not like the way things are going and still love the country enough to try to change for the bet­ ter the problems facing America. IK is another thing to just want to com: plain and blame everybody else. Perhaps I can give David Farthing and John Cox some advice. First, vote in the election process. They, just as any other American citizen does, have the right to vote. "Don't vote, don't bitch!" Secondly, be thankful that the police aren't breaking down your door because you're not in agreement with the government. If they lived in just aboqt any pth^r country in the world, they'd both be on the lamb right now. Thirdly, if they are so unhappy with the government, why then don't they run for public office and then one day they may be in a position to personally help change things for themselves. Lastly, maybe they could move away together on some island somewhere and start their own country! Kelly Walker ASU Box 12233 Article concerning RA's is misinformed To the Editor. the Editor: The opinion page in the October 27 issue of The Appalachian was full of poor fiction and uneducated opi­ nion. Unfortunately, this has become a trend since the beginning of the semester. Let us begin with 'poor fiction.' by Berke Breathed Hey, you GUYS? THE IMPULSIVE P/SPLAY OF SUPPEN LABOR VIOLENCE BROUOHT ON BY JNPERSTANPFTBLY STRFL/NEP EMOTIONS WON T 36 MCetffiRY.? jne The article entitled "RA's can a h l l C P abuse authority" by James F. Jarrett was at best, a narrow, one-sided, melodramatic view of the role of the RA. When there is a blatant viola­ tion, RA's write up everything and everyone involved, including those who deny wrongdoing. RA's do not make judgement on residents. That role is left to our student court system. The RA's principle goal in these situations is to provide as much information as necessary for the court to make a fair decision. Jarrett explains, "I am by no means a law expert." Well, that is probably the only true statement in the article. My message to Jarrett is this: You do not have to be an expert to form o n rinininn TiiiKU an opinion, U ,,f please THINK/ but before you WRITE! Now, let's move on to the uneducated opinion. The editorial entitled "Off campus students not represented well" is nothing more than a lie! Does anyone on the editorial staff of The Appalachian know where the offices of student government are located? If not, let me tell you. It is on the second floor of Workman Hall, conveniently found right below your offices! I suggest you visit SGA. Then perhaps you would not write such trash. This year, off-campus students are better represented than ever before. The Off-Campus Affairs Committee under the leadership of Gary Greene has done an excellent job this year. Not only have they 'reached out' with the newsletter, they have also placed bulletin boards at many of the apartment complexes in Boone to better inform the off-campus stu­ dent. The important point is for the editors of this publication to begin researching issues before forming opinions. An editor must be aware of their surroundings and report what they see. I hope the new editor-in-chief for next semester will open his eyes. Ronnie Russell East Hall Resident Assistant P.O.

I'M NOT (pom BACK TO BOUNONb IN MLT!tm\ To the Editor, This letter is in response to the ar­ ticle in The Appalachian on Tues­ day, October 27, 1987, written by James F. Jarrett. I can respect the opinions of others, whether in opposition or in agreement. However, when some­ one's opinion begins to spread false rumors, it needs to be corrected. I am a resident on the sub-floor where this "fiasco" took place. Yes, I am part of the fictional world James Jarrett has created on subfloor. And I can honestly say it is false. In the first place, the RA's are not there to enforce the law, as said by Jarrett. That may be part of their job, but the real reason they are there is to assist the residents when needed. They are not policemen! EDITOR NEEDED Also, the RA's are not as hated as Jarrett portrays them to be. They are only disliked by those choice few who broke the rules and got caught. I seem to be satisfied with the set of rules we live by in our residence hall. Without them there would be total chaos. These rumors which are being set into the campus must be dissolved. All they do is cause heartache and pain. The problem that seems to be at hand is whether RA's are using their authority correctly. Well, I think that it would be a much wiser deci­ sion to try to come to an agreement or solution within the residence hall. There is no need to use false knowledge or rumors and spread them around. The position of Opinion Page Editor for The Appalachian is cur­ rently open. Anyone interested in this position may pick up an ipplication Why complain? You have a choice: either stay upset over the situation bothering you, or simply go to the source and handle the pro­ blem. Some type of compromise or agreement can be made by listening to the facts each side poses. I do not know the intention of the columnist which caused him to write this trash. But I do know if he had a problem he did not take the first step in trying to talk to the people involved in the situation. Why spread the rumors, the lies, and the story-telling? You would be amazed at what two sides can come to when they both face each other with truth. Michael J. Pesce P.O.

Appalachian State established itself as the Southern Conference's dictator by holding off Marshall 17-10 and clinching its second straight conference championship Saturday. The victory lifts ASU to 5-0 in the SC, 7-2 overall. Marshall falls to 3-2, 6-4 and into a logjam of teams with two con­ ference losses. The Mountaineers have now gone undefeated in their last 17 conference encounters and have not lost a regular season game in Conrad Stadium since 1984, also a 17-game streak. What can I say?" ASU Coach Sparky Woods said. (( "We're Southern Conference champions and it's a great feel­ ing. Fm very excited and proud of this team. "It's an accomplishment to get on top. But it takes quite a lot to win it again. That's what makes this championship so special. It s a great thrill for anybody that wears the black and gold." As they have all season, the Apps relied on their defense to do most of the damage. ASU sacked the pass-happy Thunder­ ing Herd seven times. Lineman Rayford Cannon was in on no less than four of those sacks. Marshall came into the contest as Division I-AA's secondleading passing team. But quarterback Tony Petersen was forced to scramble all afternoon to avoid the constant pressure.

ASU account loses one million By NICOLE PARSONS Appalachian Staff Writer The stock market crash had minor effects on ASU and future effects remain to be seen. "It has not been a disastrous or deathly blow and I don't see any adverse affect on students," Vice Chancellor for Development Bob Snead said. The actual amount of money lost was $1,250,000. In stock market ter­ minology this was a "paper loss" for ASU. "On paper, yes we lost a lot. We are still down a million but have gained some back," Snead said. ASU holds investments in over 70 different companies and has two money managers who do the investing, buying and selling for the university. The money managers are Hellman-Jordan Company out of Boston and CDR Management out of Winston-Salem. Hellman-Jordan President Jerry Jordan said that although ASU's account did lose some money when the stock market fell, the account was actually up 15 percent or about $450,000, since January 1, 1987. "Right now we're looking pretty good," Jordan said. "The account is relatively defensive right now." Hellman-Jordan has been more defensive with the account in the past several months. Instead of investing solely in the stock market, the firm has been investing the ASU Founda­ tion's account in other markets, such as the bond market. "Almost half of the account is out of the stock market," Jordan said. A university committee employs the money managers of their choice and evaluates and discusses their perform­ ance every three months. "They follow certain kinds of stocks and use their discretion as to what to invest. They buy and trade as they see fit. We have had good success with both," Snead said. The ASU Foundation who solicits money from alumni, parents and friends of the university, uses its donations to invest in the stock market. The money is used for such things as scholarships, to support various programs, and for different departments. In addition, Foundation money is used to assist in furnishing buildings, providing land for buildings and for new equipment. "There are lots of ways in which Foundation money is used," Snead said. "We might have an adverse effect in future years (on the Foundation) but thus far we don't know," Snead said. "Right now we won't have to cut back," he added. As of now the crash has not caused financial aid to decrease or tuition to go up. We have not seen any significant change at this point on receiving payments, or pledges or in the giving pattern of alumni, parents or friends of the university," Annual Fund Director Thomas Lawson said. "It has been a pleasant surprise for us to see how people are committed to their pledges," he added. Economic Chair Larry Ellis foresees a possible effect on faculty and students. "Part of the faculty pension is invested in the stock market so with a decline, the value of this would drop and an adverse affect on students might be their ability to attend ASU if parents pay tuition out of stock investments," Ellis said.

Each club or organization that participates in "Adopt-A-Street" will be assigned a particular section of the downtown area to clean. Trash bags will be provided for picking up paper, broken glass, and other trash. The SGA Adopt-a-Street program will begin this week. "It was begun to get the school involved with the community, to let the community know more of what the school is about," SGA Senator Suzanne Dodson said. SGA hopes the program will result in better relations with the community by giving the community and the university a chance to work together. This is the second year of the pro­ gram and SGA hopes for even more involvement from organizations this year. "Last year we proved something to the town. We had more organizations from the university involved than the town did," Rules Committee Chairperson Gram Spear said. "It was a good showing for the university because the town realized that the university cares what their city looks like," he added. SGA invites community and cam­ pus organizations as well as single per­ sons to participate in the clean-up. Anyone interested should contact SGA at Workman Hall (262-6253) between November 10 and 11. �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDA Y, NOVEMBER 10, 1987 First live WASU remote involving music 24 Hour ServiC( By J.

Although it did not profit as much as some members hoped for during the stock market boom of recent years, it finds itself in good shape now. "If playing it conservative means playing it responsible, we're glad we've played it conservative," Sheahan said. While Oberlin College endowment manager David Maxson figured a market rebound could help the school recoup its one-day stock losses of $25 million, out of a total of $200 million it had invested, he worried the market's ongoing uncertainty could have "a chilling effect on donations and long-term commitments by con­ tributors." Stanford's $1.5 billion endowment "took a $200 million hit" as a result of the crash, said spokesman Bob Byers. The University of Texas system's endowment fell from $2.9 billion to $2.6 billion, executive vice chancellor for asset management Michael Patrick said. But because colleges play the stock market carefully and conservatively, said Jack Cox of the National Association of College and University Business Officers (NACUBO), the impact was less than other investors suffered.

Appalachian State football may now put on the crown, not only for this E2 sct'p"SSSSZT*** •» - » ™ P,0SI! „„ 5 Ma,si""' asu ciincbid ti«i' s~»d Too bad no more than 14,306 fans showed up to watch the App defense put °ne °fthe nat,on s most offenses. They even decided to boo Todd Payton, the man with a 23-8-1 record as ASU's starting signal caller and two SC titles under his belt But that's all the bitching I'll do. The students were vocal. It s the alumni and townspeople who don't bother to show up Coach Sparky Woods and his hard-working staff have come a long way in his four years. The Apps managed a 4-7 season in Woods' first term, but the following years have been all roses. the C'aTn0n The best group of seniors in ASU history started off the same way, on a los­ ing note. They will graduate with two SC championships. Currently, the Mountaineers hold 17-game unbeaten streaks in regular season games in Conrad Stadium and conference games. And Woods has done it the right way. He and the program always give off an air class, representing the university in the most respectable way possible. It appears that Woods has also found the heir apparent to Payton at quarterback. Miami, Fla., freshman Bobby Fuller came in Saturday com­ pleting five-of-six passes and looked good in doing so. ASU fans have not seen a quarterback come in and put zip on a pass in a long time. The Mountaineers should once again contend for a title next season. LOOKING AHEAD TO PLAYOFFS ASU still has two regular season contests remaining, but one can't help to look down the road to the playoffs. Conrad Stadium will probably be the scene for at least one playoff game. The Apps should go in as the number one seed as long as they defeat The Citadel and Western Carolina in their two final games. Holy Cross, the na­ tion's number one team, does not compete in the playoffs due to Colonial League rules. After last year's experience, ASU should know what to expect. The 28-26 loss to Nicholls State left a deep scar on last year's seniors and this year's seniors do not want to go through the same dissatisfaction. Another plus in ASU's favor is the level of competition. I-AA football does not have the powerful Georgia Southern, Nevada-Reno or Arkansas State as a year ago. ASU is the cream of the I-AA crop heading into the national cham­ pionship race. And lastly, the greatest advantage the Mountaineers have is their group of seniors. Names like Payton, Hardman, Blacknell, Downs, Lee, Bethea, and Poore. The list could extend with their accomplishments unmatched by any senior class ever at ASU. They know how to get the job done. Soccer team ends season on downer By ERIC BOLASH Appalachian Staff Writer Appalachian State Finished out its 1987 soccer season on Saturday. As they traveled to Davidson only to receive another frustrating loss, 1-0. This match against Davidson was one that could have moved the Apps into second in the Southern Con­ ference, but ASU Coach Art Rex was forced to settle for third. Davidson achieved its highest rank­ ing ever this year, ninth in the South. Like many other games this season it Was a match which Appalachian could easily have turned into a win with the right breaks. The two teams played a majority of •he game at a stalemate, each getting their chances, but not producing. Finally, at 75:39, Davidson broke the neutrality with a goal from Robert Avenger, assisted by Mike ' reelander. "The goal was somewhat of a fluke "self," claimed Rex. "They knocked the ball across the goal mouth and (goalkeeper) Pat (Scully) caught the hall, but was hit. The ball was knock^ loose, and they scored." According to Rex, it was a good game in which Appalachian created several opportunities, but came up empty. They played well enough to win, but could not finish each play with a goal, as Davidson finally did. There were many games this season which were similar to this one, such as losses to VCU, Old Dominion, Citadel, and Catawba. Coach Rex at­ tributes some of the team's insuffi­ ciencies to a lack of experience in the freshman recruits. "It's a season that you just have to go through," Rex said. "You go down a couple of years and up a cou­ ple of years. It can take a few years for college recruits to come of age and mature as players." Furman finished first in the con­ ference, while Davidson finished se­ cond and ASU third. "We were within the top three without a doubt," Rex said. I was not really surprised. It's hard to say what you can expect out of such a young team. They were good players who made young mistakes. We just have to build from here." Rex explained that, with his budget, it's difficult when players age out. Players cannot successively be replaced upon leaving the team because he simply does not have the money in his program. Davidson was a team that was not fancy and seemed to get the job done, according to Rex. They have improv­ ed their record considerably from last year, at an impressive 1-2-3. They were in the same situation last year as Appalachian is at present. Hopefully, ASU can come on strong in their 1988 season to produce similar results. For three seasons now the Ap­ palachian State Mountaineers have had to play totally on the arm of Todd Payton at quarterback. Now Coach Sparky Woods has the luxury of throwing any number of combina­ tions at an opponent. The progress of highly-recruited freshman Bobby Fuller has given the Apps a strong arm that can be brought into a football game whenever needed. "Fuller is kind of our relief pitcher," Woods said. "He can come off the bench and make something happen if Todd is struggling." Payton is still the starter and will be again this Saturday when the Moun­ taineers travel to Charleston, S.C., to take on the Citadel Bulldogs. Payton as a starter is hard to argue. The senior out of Virgnia Beach, VA, is 23-8-1 as a starter and has now led the Apps to two consecutive Southern Conference titles. Payton is completing right at 50 percent of his passes for his career and currently ranks fourth on the Mountaineer's all-time passing list. In the first half Saturday against Marshall, Payton looked like the quarterback he can be by completing seven of 13 pass attempts despite hav­ ing two nice throws dropped. In the second half however, Payton maybe tried to make too much hap­ pen as his only completion of the se­ cond stanza was to a Marshall defen­ sive back. Wood felt like the timing was right for his relief pitcher. Fuller reponded by going five-for-six for 46 yards. "Todd was really throwing the ball well in the first half," Woods said. "I think he had some disappointing things happen and he was just trying to make too much happen in the second half." _ "Fuller is kind of our relief pitcher. He can come off the bench and make something happen if Todd is struggling." ~Coach Sparky Woods The confidence Woods has in the 6-2, 182, freshmen out of Miami, Fla, was evident as he made the switch in a crucial point in the ballgame. With 2:23 remaining in the third period and the score 14-7, Woods called on Fuller to bring in a little spark to a stalled Mountaineer of­ fense. "We hit the first down and I think that got them going," Woods said. "I really don't think me making the switch made any difference." Also not out of the picture is redshirt sophomore Tommy Laurendine. Laurendine got his chance as a starter one year ago and came through for the Mountaineers. With Payton sidelined for the James Madison game due to a knee injury, the Oak Ridge, Tenn., native 6*-. Kris Svensson (13) takes aim for the App soccer team. got his only career start and guided the Mountaineers to a 21-20 comefrom-behind victory over the Dukes. In the Homecoming spoiler over James Madison, Laurendine was 10 of 18 for 100 yards and a touchdown. Should something happen to Payton again in '87, Laurendine would most likely be the field general called on to lead the Apps. You can't forget Tommy,* iuu can i rorget tommy, Woods said. "If Todd can't start, then we will probably start Tommy." So there you have the Mountaineer quarterbacking trio. Payton, the senior leader who has proven himself to be a winner over the last three years, is the starter. Lauren­ dine, a very capable reserve who can fill in when needed, is the backup. And then there is Fuller, the Moun­ relief Ditcher. taineer relief mtcner. "We never felt in control of the game," Woods said. "As dangerous as they are, I never felt comfortable." Marshall squandered scoring at­ tempts in the third quarter when Petersen threw two of his three in­ terceptions. On the Herd's first possession of the third quarter, Marshall drove 48 yards on 14 plays only to have place kicker Brian Mitchell hook his field goal attempt wide from 32 yards. Payton gave the ball right back to Marshall when Herd safety Mark Snyder intercepted a pass at the ASU 49. Petersen completed a 16 yarder to Mike Barber, then made a poor choice by throwing into coverage and being picked off by ASU linebacker Joe Spikes. Early in the game, ASU stopped Marshall's initial threat at the App 22. Faced with needing two yards for the first down, Marshall twice tried Dar­ by up the middle and twice Glanton was there to meet Darby head-on -for no gain. Woods made a gutsy decision late in the third quarter when he yanked Payton in favor of Miami, Fla. freshman Bobby Fuller. Payton had been effective in the first half, but threw three consecutive passes in the Conrad Stadium turf" causing his substitution. "Bobby came in and completed some passes," Woods said. "He gave us a great boost. I'm glad we're in the situation now where we can bring Bobby or Tommy (Laurendine) in and count on them to play well. "Todd had missed a few passes, but we've won two Southern Con­ ference championships with him at quarterback. H^^a real competitor real ami will next we aiiu will start next week at The Citadel." Fuller completed two passes in his first drive, moving the Apps into range for Nittmo. The Sweden-born place kicker was true from 46 yards and ASU held a 17-7 lead with 14:12 left in the contest. The Herd put a scare into the Apps during the game's waning moments. Keyed by three straight Petersen com­ pletions and a double reverse by Barber, the Herd moved to the ASU 18. An offensive pass interference penalty stalled the drive and Mitchell connected from 37 yards pulling the Herd within 17-10 with 2:14 left in the game. Mitchell's ensuing onsides kick worked like a charm, neatly bouncing over the first wave of ASU's kick return team and recovered by Marshall's Reggie Giles at the ASU 47. Three times, Petersen looked for Barber, the Southern Conference's leading receiver with 64 catches and each time a Mountaineer had a hand on the ball to deflect it. A fourth down screen came up three yards shy of the first down and the Apps ran out the clock securing their second SC crown. Two consecutive SC championships Continued from Page 1 from Page The Mountaineer defense was able >untaineer defense was able to contain Petersen, holding the Southern Conference's most prolific passer ever to 258 yards on 22-48 pass­ ing and three interceptions. The Herd had averaged 445 yards of total of­ fense, but managed 332 against ASU. "We knew Marshall could throw the ball," said All-American defen­ sive lineman Anthony Downs. "I give credit to the.whole defensive front. We put pressure on Petersen all day." The Herd had some early success running the ball with All-SC can­ didate Ron Darby carrying for 76 first half yards. Darby was lost early in the third quarter when he was upended by cornerback Keith Collins. The injury to Darby's knee made Marshall strict­ ly a passing team and took away the threat of the run. "When Darby got hurt, ASU could play strictly pass defense,' Marshall Coach George Chaump said. "We definitely needed to rush the football more to be successful against them. It was difficult without Darby in the game." Marshall rushed for just 30 second half yards as they were forced to pass the ball 32 times to come from behind. "With the defensive line shutting down the run, it made it a lot easier for us (linebackers)" ASU linebacker Orlester Glanton said. "That gave us a better chance to make deeper drops and make the plays." The Mountaineers took advantage of good field position early in the game for their two first half touchdowns and a 14-0 lead. After pinning Marshall deep on two sacks by Cannon and Chris Conner, ASU took over at the Herd 43 yard line. The Apps used a personal foul penalty and five consecutive carries by running back Tim Sanders to move in for the score. Sanders found the goal line from three yards out. Bjorn Nittmo's conversion hit the upright, leaving ASU ahead 6-0 wjth 6:59 left in the first quarter. Late in the second quarter, Ap­ palachian again bullied the Herd around, pushing them back to their own seven on a David Freeland sack and forcing a Marshall punt. Taking over at the Herd 46, the Mountaineers overcame a procedure penalty with a Sanders' 12-yard run and a five-yard pass from Todd Payton to Sam Wesley. Following an incompletion, Payton again looked for Wesley, this time deep down the right sidelines, and laid a perfect pass over Wesley's shoulder for the touchdown. Sander's run for the twopoint conversion put the Apps ahead 14-0 with 3:35 left before intermis­ sion. On Marshall's ensuing possession, Ron Darby rushed for a 33-yard gain to the ASU 29. Petersen completed two passes, one for a fourth-down conversion to the 15. The Moun­ taineers seemed to have thwarted the drive when Mickey Ray and Cannon combined efforts to sack Petersen. But the Herd quarterback came right back with a 22-yard scoring pass to wide receiver Keith Baxter. The pass bounced off two Mountaineer defenders before it reached its destination with 48 seconds left in the half. "I came here to build a Southern Conference championship team and do it the right way," Woods said. "We dedicated this game to our seniors, who were here my first year as head coach when we went 4-7. This is quite a group of seniors to come from that year to winning two straight Southern Conference champion­ ships." App individuals wrestle at Eastern meet By LOREN TRIVETTE Appalachian Staff Writer The ASU wrestling team traveled to Norfolk, Virginia last weekend to participate in the Eastern Nationals held at Old Dominion University. Because of a new NCAA rule, eligi­ ble and ineligible wrestlers are not allowed to wrestle each other while representing a college team. Under this rule, no team scores were kept. Although most wrestlers were part of a team, the tournament was based on individual performances. Mike Maxam compiled a record of 4-2 and placed in the top six of the 177 lb. weight class. He was defeated in the first round by Charlie Buckshaw of UT-C with a score of 20-6. Jevon Morris, at 126, went 3-2 and placed in the top eight. "I found the tournament to be a learning experience," Morris said. "It brought out a lot of things that the team and the wrestlers needed to work on." "He got some experience wrestling in his first college matches and he did a good job wrestling," ASU Coach Paul Mance said. In the 134 lb. weight class, Dave Maas won three of five matches. He lost to Clarence Arlington of UT-C who went on to the finals. Dave Sloan picked 5-2 at 150. He lost to Lenny Bernstein from North Carolina, who placed third in the tournament. Wrestling at 190, Chris Zwilling had a record of 2-2. "The competition was tough, but everbody wrestled to the best of their ability," Zwilling said. of the match. "Marshall was not able to attack the ball at the net," ASU Coach Traci Blankenship said. "Our offense was strong. All they could do was just get the ball back over the net. That really contributed to our win." ASU was led by Kerri Carlton with a 37.5 percent hitting average. She was followed by Donna Joye at 31.3 percent. Angela Haas tied Carlton for the team lead with 12 kills. The Lady Apps were able to keep the Lady Herd on their heels for most The Lady Apps will finish their regular season tonight as they play host to league—leading East Ten­ nessee State. Match time is 7 p.m. in Varsity Gym as ASU attempts to im­ prove their seeding in this weekend's conference tournament. In the heavyweight class, Chris Moore had a record of 3-2. Mance felt that the team wrestled fairly well considering that teams from Clemson, Maryland, Liberty, ODU, UT-C, and UNC were at the tournament. The Southern Con­ ference was well represented and he was satisfied with ASU's perfor­ mance. "We have a long way to go to get ready for our own conference teams," Mance said. "But we will work hard to be prepared for them." Southern Conference Standings Spikers spank Marshall The Appalachian State volleyball team came from behind to down Mar­ shall Friday, 5-15, 16-14, 15-10, and 15-10. The victory improves the Lady Apps to 17-10 overall, 6-5 in the Southern Conference.

Copy Editor MICHEI E HOLLOWELL, Assistant Copy Editor PAMELA CARTER, Circulation Manager JODY BROWN, Editorial Production Manager TERESA CHALK, Advertising Production Manager Transition to alumni Last Thursday an auditing group interviewed student leaders and •taff advisors of several organizations on campus to determine the "easibility of starting a senior program at ASU The goal of such a program would be to unify the senior class, pronote school spirit and, consequently, assist the university in receiving Jumni pledges. Part of the plan would be for each senior class to ionate a gift selected by a committee of seniors to the university over wo or three years. The idea is to give seniors a feeling of belonging to a group much arger than a club, organization, fraternity or sorority. Hopefully this rill not only improve school spirit, but will also give graduates a lositive memory of ASU and will help generate alumni donations. Vith the N.C. Board of Governor's emphasis on funding public chools, the UNC system, including Appalachian, will have to turn lore and more to alumni funds to operate. The interviewers stressed the importance of the university treating tudents like alumni rather than second-class citizens. To do this the atitude must come from the top down. Administrators need to make hemselves more accessible to campus-perhaps through weekly Breakfasts with the Chancellor," where random students can meet Chancellor Thomas and discuss campus issues. Recognizing nationally acclaimed or award winning organizations uch as The Rhododendron, the Forensic Team and the ROTC Per­ iling Rifles would also help students feel that their hard work and acomplishments are important to the university. Other ways to build class spirit would be to hold a senior party or licnic similar to YOFEST, but only open to seniors. H'Appy's could edicate one night a month to just one class of students and their uests. There are many other ways to display to students that the university ares and each student is an important part of the whole class and camIUS. A student who feels the university cares about who they are and 'hat they do and feel are far more likely to graduate into alumni who i turn care enough about ASU to donate. The amount that alumni donate has as much to do with the univerity's attitude and treatment of students as it does the alumni's attitude oward ASU. The second is conditior^' upon the first. Critical time for fires Forest fires are spreading all over the Southeast particularly in the iedmont and mountain regions. This fall's drought coupled with fallen leaves and high winds have jrned Watauga and surrounding counties into fire hazards. Most of these fires have been caused by iiatuteri conditions, but inividuals can and should do as much as possible to protect the land. All would take to set off a fire would be a still-hot cigarette thrown or epped upon on the ground. Humans are the only creatures who can protect their environment om themselves and from nature. The ability to protect takes on an in­ dent responsibility to do so. Fire prevention and awareness should ot end in grade school after Smokey the Bear loses his charm. It lould be a constant concern, particularly now when conditions are pe for disasters. Homes and lives are in danger of rui'i and students need to take extra ecautions when hiking, camping or just visiting the Parkway. The eather is mild and inviting to outdoor lovers. But the conditions are eacherous. At the risk of contributing to the overuse of a cliche, "Only YOU 'n prevent forest fires." Room county Mass education is thought control Question: What country of the world requires people to turn their children over to the state at the age of six for twelve years of routine political indoc­ trination? Answer: The United States of America As soon as a child can learn to read and write, he or she is exposed to a watered down version of history and the simplistic idea that the American government is great and it is here to help you; we're all free, etc. This bogus pile of propaganda which passes for education would be highly amusing if it weren't so tragic for the black students of inner city schools. They know more about the truth of freedom in America than any ASU student (including myself) will ever know. The idea of a public school is supported by nearly everyone in spite of the fact that it is an obvious monopoly. Even though the government graciously "allows" private schools to exist, it still regulates what can be taught and who can teach there. Fur­ thermore, a monopoly does not exclude all competi­ tion. Even in Russia, one can turn to the black market. What makes the American "public" school system a dangerous monopoly is that it penalizes those who attend the competition, private school, by making them pay twice, once for their governmentcontrolled education and once again (in taxes) for their "free" public education. Suppose you were forced to pay for telephone ser­ vice provided by the government "freely" whether or not you owned a phone. Of course, this would enrage the American public. Yet everyone pays for a "free" education for their children, whether or not they have children. Everyone complains about the shoddy education system which consistently graduates pupils who can­ not read or write. Obviously, the ultimate purpose of this organized, state-controlled system is something other than to teach. If teaching were the reason for school, then teachers would receive higher salaries. The government deliberately keeps teacher's salaries at a minimum in order to weed out the best teachers whose talents will eventually buy them a higher price in another market. Thus, with the best teachers out of the way, average to poor teachers can continue the job of spoon-feeding their pupils the government views of the facts. Even the good teachers who remain in the system to try to make a difference with their students burn­ out eventually, whittled down to a frazzle by the amount of bureaucratic interference, such as excessive paperwork. Recently, for example, the state of North Carolina passed a law which said that in each hour-long class period, every student should be called on at least once to answer a question. With keeping track of such a practice every hour of every day, who will have time to teach more than the simplest of facts without a hint of analysis? Studies show that while Russian students in grades five through twelve spend 38 percent of their class time receiving political education, their American counterparts spend 46 percent of class time being indoctrinated to state views. How much of what you learned in public school history and civics classes turned out to be complete and factual and how much was a watered-down glorifying of American govern­ ment? If the purpose of school were the teaching of facts and skills rather than indoctrination of values, why is there such a violent struggle over which values can go into a textbook, particularly when the subject is religion? Why do so many support the banning of books in public schools? Are they afraid their children will accidentally learn to think for themselves by reading "subversive" material and refuse to listen to the bunk taught in the classroom? Removing books from library shelves is only one method of keeping ideas out which oppose the status quo. To quote Alan Burris, author of A Liberty Primer, "People who want to impose their will and views on others understand the advantage of indoc­ trinating them at an impressionable age and restrict­ ing their access to opposing ideas." Public schools are often referred to as "mass education." What that phrase is supposed to sound like is "education for the masses." What it really means is "mass production of ideas." Mass produc­ tion of anything is a method of routinely forcing conformity and standard out of the "product" being formed. The fact that every child is forced to attend school is itself indoctrination. It accustoms us at an early age to the fact that the government has power over us and it teaches us to submit to oppressive authori­ ty. The question to ask ourselves about public school is: Are we customers paying for a service, or inmates of a prison system? Beware of the meaningless "Isms yy By KICK RAIRDON he wants to hear and disregards the rest." Our presuppositions always govern the inclinations of our world view. Have you ever thought through your You have ail seen the warning, "Beware of Dog," how about "Beware of "isms?" Do you (like a little bird in the nest) swallow them like live worms? ism?" I would like to briefly look at four explanations of the origin of man and the The Webster's Dictionary defines -ism as a suffix that denotes action, state or cosmos. The book Genesis in Space and Time by the late Francis A. Schaeffer condition resulting from an excess of something specified. I want to give you lists them as follows: "1.

Everything verb. To ism is to absolutize. An example could be the absolutizing of Charles began with a Personal something, 4. There is and always has been dualism." Darwin or Karl Marx.

All things came into being absolute? and who or what is being made as real?" Not even Calvinism or by Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into be­ Capitalism are absolutes although they stand as an antithesis to Darwinism or ing." Why is this simple truth so difficult to grasp by many today? The answer Marxism. There can be only one absolute that is absolutely absolute, but we is found also in the book of John, "And the Light shines in the darkness and have rejected the absolute reality of God and settled for many "isms" instead. the darkness did not comprehend it." In the first example of Darwinism, the theory is more convincing to more We who claim to be educated must think through what we believe and why people if it can be dressed up to look like fact and not just conjecture. When I we believe it or we will be lead by those who know what they believe and why think of some of our modern day scientists trying to find the "missing link," I they believe it. The very first place I would challenge you to start is with the think of a line out of a Simon & Garfunkle song that says, "A man hears what statement that claims "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom." Appalachian Columnist Taking WASU away from the students By ERIC MILLER Appalachian Columnist As most of you know, ASU owns a student run radio station, WASU. Recently, a group of professors spoke against the way WASU is being run. The professors were bothered by the "unprofessional" sound of the sta­ tion. They recommended that "pro­ fessionals" be hired to run the sta­ tion, in place of the students. by Berke Breathed When I heard of this, I was both shocked and offended. Were these professors actually suggesting that a radio station specifically for ASU students should be run by outsiders? People with absolutely no idea of what it is to be a student at ASU? Well, this is what they were and are suggesting, and I think it's a miserable idea for many reasons. First of all, a 340 watt college sta­ tion is not going to sound as polished as a 100,000 watt commercial station. WASU isn't supposed to sound "pro­ fessional", as much as it is supposed to sound different and interesting. In my opinion, WASU accomplishes both of these objectives. WASU also does not sound dry and boring, as many "professional" stations often do. Also, there is the matter of money. 1 totally disagree with the new tuition hikes. Here is a brief look at where the general fees we pay go. $970,000/yr. Athletics $675,000/yr. Athletic Facilities $820,000/yr. Student Activities $860,000/yr. Textbook Rental $ 2,000/yr. WASU Yes, WASU receives $2,000/yr; that is 20c per person a year to WASU. WASU's 10 paid staff members are paid only a minimal salary, comparable to many other'student work Drograms. WASU's DJ's are not paid at all. Also, WASU's slice of the budget is much too small (compared to other student-run organizations), and the job the station does, considering this, is admirable. So, considering the meager amount of funds now spent on WASU, think about what would happen if the complainers got their way. What about the cost! Staff members would have to be paid "real" salaries, and the once-free DJ's would also have to be paid. Where would a good deal of this money probably come from? You guessed it higher tuition. My final reason for disagreeing with this ridiculous idea is also the one I feel is most important. Are the students of this campus going to allow a small group of professors to tell them what to listen to? I surely hope not. There are lots of stations on that dial, and if you don't like what you hear, simply change the station, (on the dial, not literally!) The students of ASU should be proud of both WASU and The Ap­ palachian, for they are our only real voices in the community. SGA, APPS and many other groups on campus benefit from WASU by having their upcoming projects announced over the air for free. A commercial station would certainly charge a fee for these services. I hope everyone reading this article feels as offended by this attempt to depersonalize our radio station as I do. Those of you who don't, try listening to WASU for a while. You may find a break from "professional" stations refreshing. If WASU's college music format ap­ peals to you, keep listening. If it doesn't, but you still agree that the station should be student run, give WASU your support by making your opinion known to your student representatives. I feel this is one issue on which all ASU students can be united. At least I hope so. (There are so few things we all agree on.) I am sure, however, that there will be those of you who will agree with these few professors; that WASU should sound more "profes­ sional." Well, if you want WASU to change, why not get involved? Any student can work for WASU, no mat­ ter what your major. As for these few professors, why not try to make the present system even better? Let the student body of ASU, continue to run WASU to the best of its ability. Interview with Rich Hall was biased To the Editor: This letter is concerning Ashley McAdoo's article on comedian Rich Hall. Miss McAdoo apparently is either a terrible judge of character or just recklessly judgmental. Never have I seen such an unfair, one-sided profile of anyone! I inter­ viewed Mr. Hall after the show for The Rhododendron and found him to be quite cooperative and pleasant for someone who had probably driven for 6 hours and had just per­ formed for 1 Vi hours onstage. Sure, he looked tired. Who wouldn't? I wasn't exactly expecting him to turn cartwheels across the floor. Furthermore, I didn't want to burden him with a toad of routine, predictable questions, so I asked a few that were maybe just a little out of the ordinary. He answered them honestly and completely. Personally, I found him to be quite friendly. He was even autographing posters and chatting with a few people in the lobby. As I left Farthing, I thanked him for his time. In reply, Hall said, "Take care, Kurt." Miss McAdoo seemed a little miffed that Hall didn't want to answer her question, "How did sniglets get started?" This was prob­ ably the millionth time he had heard this question. I imagine that she, too, would be a little weary of the question if the shoe was on her foot. Besides, if she had stayed for the show, she would have gotten the answer to that question, because Hall gave it in his act. And so what if Hall prefers the West Coast to the East Coast? C'mon! It's just one guy's opinion. This is no reason to criticize him. Even so, I must admit that all the blame should not fall on McAdoo's shoulders. She obviously had her opinion formed before she ever talked to Hall, because she said herself that "the general backstage consensus [was] that he's not an overly friendly person." It's a shame that this had to happen, and that her excellent writing style had to be wasted on such judgments that prob­ ably weren't completely thought through. I don't want to seem too hard on McAdoo, however. She was only do­ ing her job. So what if she seemed a little harsh, a little short-sighted? After all, I may have misjudged her completely.

To the Editor: I feel sorry for you right now because I'm sure your office will be flooded with letters packed with hatred toward the people who recommended the possible fee increases. I'm sure you also noticed the creative excuses the people in charge gave as to why the fees are necessary. First off, do you, or for that matter anyone out there, actual­ ly use the full-length mirrors in the hallways? Somehow I can see the university saving a large amount of cash by just scrapping them. It would save on costs for replacing them.Let's not forget the extra bot­ tles of cleaning fluid needed to clean those worthless objects as well. been here, I've been impressed by how the administration could supply a quality living environment at such a small cost.

Box 11635 Another point to consider is the proposed increase of fifty dollars to each meal plan option. Is that a sign of possible increases of food price sat the cafeteria, B.I., Gold Room and Sweet Shop? If not, then I feel that if any student's meal card total is running low, they can approach the cashier and increase their own totals.

Spring semester registration progresses smoothly By MARGARET MUGNIER Appalachian Staff Writer Early registration started Monday, October 26 and has run smoothly with minor problems. Parking problems still plague ASU students "Almost 90 people showed up per half hour on the first day," —Brooks McLeod Registrar Students are assigned a date and a time according to earned hours. The first day graduate students and seniors started registering. "Almost 90 people showed up per half hour on the first day," Registrar Brooks McLeod said. McLeod said during the first few hours of registration all classes are open so the process is faster and easier. By the end of the first week 3,700 students had registered. "It's going very well," McLeod By MICHELE HOLLOWELL Assistant Copy Editor No senators at last Tuesday's SGA meeting said they were completely itisfied with the parking situation at ASU. During a Fee Forum at the meeting Vice Chancellor for Business Affairs Ned rivette discussed the parking problem and possible registration fee increases. "It's (solving the parking problem) not easy," Trivette said. "There's not an 'ernight solution." With an increase of 1,300 students this year, ASU now has an excess of 1,000 ITS. ASU is studying their options and looking into possible solutions. "We've tried to solve the problem with additional surface parking and rentg private lots," Trivette said.

New professors join CMA department By SHELLEY KAEHR Appalachian Staff Writer Four new professors have been ad­ ded to the communication arts department to make more sections of classes available to communication arts students. Several CMA majors have been complaining that they had to settle with incomplete schedules. "I went to registration today and was only able to get 11 hours," Scott Post said. "Ten other classes that I tried to get were already closed." "I registered last Friday and didn't get half of the things I wanted," An­ drew Heckel said. "It wasn't only a matter of time slots, but all sections at all times had no openings." CMA department chairperson Charles Porterfield said the Ad­ ministration is aware of the problem and has hired five new staff members to help with the increased enrollment. The CMA staff now includes 19 full-time and nine part-time faculty members. Porterfield said one problem has been that several students transfer in­ to the CMA department as Juniors time. He also said students who have been in the department since their freshman or sophomore years haven't had a problem. "We've never had a problem with people graduating on time," Porter­ field said. The CMA department has tried to help solve the problem by combining the Media Advertising and TV Pro­ duction classes into one class called Fundamentals of Broadcasting. "We don't have the facilities for mass lecture classes unless we move out of this building." —Howard Dorgan The combined class has helped the problem, but does not solve the pro­ blems of available class sections and classroom space shortages. "We don't have the facilities for mass lecture classes unless we move out of this building," communication arts professor Howard Dorgan said. "One of our professors has been using a lecture room in Edwin Dun­ can," he added. A Communication Arts Career Day will be held thrs afternoon from !2;3Q p.m. until 3 p.m. in Our House in the Student Union. Representatives from area television stations and Dr. Charles Porterfield "I could never get all of the CMA classes I needed so I would have to take a bunch of electives which were a waste of my time," Robin Heavner said.

"The Board of Trustees has en­ dorsed the concept of Greek housing. The stumbling block is how to finance it," Assistant Director of the Student Development Center Dino DiBernardi said. Any housing built on university property must be self-liquidating. This means that the funds would have to be obtained through student fees.

Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs Harvey Durham said the total amount of money collected from students per year is $100,000 and since there are more students taking courses dealing with computers, the fee was lowered. "About four years ago, there were too few computers on campus for students to be able to get their work done," Durham said. A decision was reached in conjunction with the SGA and the administration that would have those students who wanted to use computers pay a fee, rather than the money being taken out of tuition.

"The computer fee stays consistent whether a stu­ dent is taking one or five computer-usage classes." —Dr. Deanna Bowman Director, Academic Computing Services Durham said about 75 percent of the money is used to pay people to work in the computer rooms, including student temporaries and some full-time employees. 25 percent goes to other areas, such as computer O maintenance. There are about 2,500 students using computers each semester. ASU has two mainframe com­ puters, a VACS 8650, and a VACS 8550, the last one being used primarily for academic processing and research. "These computers are connected, with one supplementing the other," Director of Academic Computing Services Dr. Deanna Bowman, said. She said after 5 p.m. it is easier to get work done because the second main­ frame becomes available. 'The computer fee stays consistent whether a student is taking one or five computer-usage classes," Bowman said.

The heat in the residence halls and buildings was turned on the first week in October. In the residence halls, RA's help monitor the temperature. "Our responsibility is to regulate the temperature as much as possible," Jerry McKaskel of the physical plant said. Due to the age of some of the buildings they tend to be too hot or too cold. McKaskel said there is really nothing that can be done to the buildings to winterize them. CPPC hosts recruiters By MARY K. MILLER Appalachian Staff Writer Forty-three school systems from the Southeast recruited on the ASU campus for teaching graduates during the Educational Job Fair at the Stu­ dent Union last Friday. By sponsoring the fair each year, the Career Planning and Placement Office not only helps ASU graduates obtain teaching positions, but helps school systems locate qualified teachers. School systems as far away as Brevard County, Florida recruited on campus. "ASU truly serves the needs of our program," Buncombe County Schools recruiter Frank Lewis said. Buncombe County, the seventh largest school system in the state, plans to hire from 80 to 100 new teachers next year. Lewis said many of them will be ASU graduates. Some recruiters said they feel the success of the fair is due largely to the efforts of the Career Planning Office itself. "David Ball does a tremendous job The ICL is designed to let students repay their college loans in amounts that depend on how much they earn after • leaving school. But students who expect to get moderate-to high-paying jobs after graduation would actually have higher monthly payments in repaying an ICL than they would in repaying a Guaranteed Student Loan (GSL). For instance, Staff calculated that a student earning $17,760 a year would spend $304 a month to repay an ICL, compared to $222 a month for a GSL. If it took the stu­ All Merchandise On Sale!

"ASU caters to all recruiters, not just educaton or business as other schools might," Kathy Sack, Assis­ tant Director of the Career Planning Office said. "What really sparks me is the en­ thusiasm each candidate has for teaching," Burke County Schools recruiter William Payne said. ICL: a "bad deal" WASHINGTON, D.C. (CPS)-The Reagan administration's hope for ending student loan defaults and reforming student aid may be "an experiment that cannot work," the conservative Heritage Foundation said last week. The foundation's opinion is particularly noteworthy because the group has formed many of the education ideas the administration has turned into policy since 1980. Clemson University Professor Robert Staff, who prepared the Heritage report, figured the new Income Contingent Loan (ICL) would actually be a bad deal for students. Lost Our Lease! dent 10 years to repay a college loan in full, an ICL would cost the student $9,840 more than a C.SI Senator Claiborne Pell (D-R.I.) concocted the ICL idea, and sponsored a 5-year ICL "pilot program" that starts on 10 campuses this fall to see how it might work. But last January, before the pilot program even began, U.S. Secretary of Education William Bennett made income-contingent loans the center of his suggested fiscal 1989 higher ed budget. Bennett proposed cutting all student aid programs by about 50 percent, making GSLs much harder for students to get, and drastically increasing the budget for the stillunproven ICL. Bennett explained the ICL would cut the default rate because students' loan repayments would not outstrip their ability to pay back the money. Congress ultimately rejected Bennett's proposal, opting instead to see how the pilot program would work out before replacing other student aid programs with it. In his report, "Problems With The New Student Aid Pilot Program," Staff predicted the five-year experiment "will reveal very little, except perhaps that the students enrolled in it know little about financial principles."

FT f!FTFB A Ei 1 Ufa A ufflfl Biking at the Outer Banks Jimmy Guignard By MARY GATES Appalachian Slaff Writer Siblings are more than insta-enemies I received the ultimate form of flattery over fall break My little brother, Billy, had to write a paper for school about a person who has influenced him. He picked me. I was stunned I have never really thought of myself as an influence, good or bad, on anybody s life, much less as fine a person as my brother. Let me chat about him for a moment. He's as tall as I am with twice the muscle. Blond hair and blue eyes are prominent on his appealing face He dates a "10" and could date about five others. Soccer is his favorite sport'and he wants to learn to kayak with me. He's also old for his age and extremely wise. Anyway, that's enough rambling. My brother and 1 are close. I mean really CLOSE. He comes up to ASU quite a bit to party, get away from Charlotte, just whatever reason he wants. We've had some fabulous weekends, too. Homecoming and Hoey Hawaiian weekends are two you can count on Wild Bill being here. One of the most memorable weekends was camping in Lost Cove over the summer. A lot of people can't do those things with a brother or sister. Many people wonder how my brother and I get along so well. 1 don't really know and I don't want to find out because it may lose its magic. I know I'm damn proud to be his brother and his friend. People miss quite a bit when they don't establish a good relationship with their brothers and sisters. Its like having a best friend around just waiting to happen. Nothing is easy, though. Billy and I have our differences but, for some reason, we put them aside. To be perfectly honest, I don't see the little snot enough to argue and bicker when I do see him. I'm much too happy when he's around. I know everyone is not compatible. That's the way of the world and, sadly enough, it sometimes extends to blood kin. I think it's a waste though when siblings don't get along. It's usually over something petty and many people realize it when its too late in life to do anything about it. I'd like to see those with a brother or sister that's practically an enemy to try to get along for a change. It may not work but what if it does? .You'll be gaining something valuable to everybody. Friendship. Fall Break. A phenomenon that comes and goes too quickly. In the midst of writing papers, tak­ ing tests and preparing projects, a stu­ dent may have already forgotten just what it was he or she did over the break. One group that probably has not forgotten is the members of the Outer Banks Bike Trip sponsored by the Of_fice_o£Outdoor Programs. "We were trying to put the tents up in the dark, and in the sand with a 30 m.p.h. wind." —Sam Callan Resident Director, ^GardnerHall a On Wednesday, October 14 at 1 p.m., after packing the ASU van to capacity, the group of 14 left Boone for a much needed vacation. What lay ahead was sand, stars, ferry rides, bikes, great food, good company and for the brave of the bunch, a dip in the Atlantic. "The Outdoor Adventure Program chose the Outer Banks for the trip because people had expressed an in- terest in the area, the terrain is easy, the weather is moderate and it's a change from the mountains," Sam Callan said. Callan, Resident Director of Gard­ ner Hall, and senior Todd Holt from Burlington led the trip. Sophomore Debbi McAllister from Miami assisted as an apprentice. The first night at the Outer Banks was the group's greatest challenge. "We got to Oregon Inlet around 12 a.m. and were trying to put the tents up in the dark, and in the sand with a 30 m.p.h. wind," Callan recalled. The rest of the trip included about 80 miles of biking to the south with the wind on their backs and camping along the way. One of the more memorable moments of this experience was on the second day of the trip when the group came across a swarm of wind surfers near Cape Hatteras. The surfers were from as far away as On­ tario, Canada. "Everybody took their own in­ itiative and worked well together as a group. It was a neat experience," Debbi McAllister said. The Outdoor Adventure Program is hoping to do an extended trip over Spring Break. For more information, contact Kim Sherrill, Program Coor­ dinator, at 262-4077. Appalachian Photo by Tod Jonoa OUTER BANKS BIKERS: What better way to spend fall break than by riding 80 or so miles on a two-wheeled contraption in the scenic Outer Banks. That's what these cyclists thought as they sweated, pedal­ ed and camped over the long weekend. Definitely a good way to get ready to hit the books. STUDENTS College students or Scrooge clones? (CPS)—Students, critics claimed, were self-centered and materialistic. They didn't need the student loans they borrowed, and then didn't repay them. They cared only about themselves, getting high-paying careers and driv­ ing BMWs. They might work pas­ sionately for a masters of business administration, but not for improving their communities. Such perceptions of American col­ legians, administrators now say, erod­ ed public support of higher educa­ tion, helped foster the political climate that made it okay for politi­ cians to slash college funding in recent years and, in fact, embarrassed educators. " . . .the habit of being involved, of taking a leadership role, that will carry over to the best of their lives." —Harry Kisker Dean of Student Affairs Washington University Traditionally, colleges have stressed community service, Susan Schwartz °r Campus Compact, a college Presidents and chancellors organization dedicated to promoting volun­ tarism among students, said. "Higher education was a place to incubate citizenship," she added. The Materialism of the 1970s and early however, disrupted that historical link. To improve higher education's ltTlage and to get students more "volved in their communities educators had a responsibility to L lange the perception of the "me generation." Universities," one student who 'equested anonymity said, "have a '"interest in promoting public serV|ce. It's good public relations." ''i 1985, a report issued by the arnegie Foundation for the ^dvancement of Teaching called P°n colleges to give students credit r aid for 'doing good.' Campuses were responsible for the "me generation" attitudes of past years. "We're the problem," admitted Dean Lois Cronholm of Temple University. Faced with the threat of decreasing enrollments and increasing costs, schools "tried so hard to sell students on education by emphasizing the financial rewards a college educa­ tion can bring. The "me generation" wouldn't have happened if we hadn't sold so hard on it." The number of student volunteers at Brown University jumped from 300 to 800 after the school hired a director for the Brown Community Outreach, now the largest student group on cam­ pus. The program's director, Mary Courtney, said promoting public ser­ vice opportunities and centralizing those opportunities in one office are responsible for the increase. "If you give students the oppor­ tunity, they'll take it," she said. Harry Kisker, the dean of student affairs at Washington University in St. Louis, opposes offering credit and financial aid to volunteers because students then expect to be rewarded for community service. Voluntarism without rewards, he said, instills "the habit of being involved, of taking a leadership role, that will carry over to the best of their lives." Most college officials, however, say such thinking is unrealistic. At Temple, which plans to offer a social responsibility course next year, Cronholm asks, "What more can you expect of students?" Students, she said, are burdened not only with classes and studies, but may also have to work part-time to fund their education. While colleges should not reward students automatically for public ser­ vice, Jane Kendall of the National Society for Internships and Experien­ tial Education said, they should be evaluated as if the job were a classroom activity. Rewarding students for community service either with credit or cash, allows middle and lower-income students the same opportunities as upper-income students. "If we only had upper-income students involved," said Paul Lipson, a Brown alumnus who, as a student, organized the Brown South Bronx project, "it would have been very boring." STUDY SMART: ASU students know when to take advantage of the fantastic fall weather that has graced Boone these past few days. With the temperature up into the 70's, where better to study than in front of Belk Library. Of course, there is plenty to do that can draw students away from the books in such fine weather. Laymg*in the sun, throwing frisbee or cruising on the parkway are three favorites. The only problem is, as the semester winds down, many students are playing catch-up in hopes of reeling in a good grade. —- i n —ft-nlir Volunteerism reaps reward for students By DEBBIE ATKINSON Special to the Appalachian During the first two months of its existence at ASU, The Student Ser­ vice Learning Project has recruited and trained 67 Student Volunteers. It is certainly obvious how the time, talent and energy of these students can benefit the clients, agencies and community that they serve. But, why DO students volunteer? What are the rewards for them: now and in the future? These student volunteers come from diverse disciplines and backgrounds with future career interests as varied as one could imagine. Even with all of these dif­ ferences, each of the 67 students has expressed strong interest in serving the low-income residents of Watauga County. Some of the reasons for volunteer­ ing that our students have given include: helping people in need, cun- STUDENT SERVICELEARNING PROJECT "HELPING HANDS" tributing to the community, sharing of personal gifts, using spare time constructively and productively, shar­ ing love with those who don't get enough, gaining experience, exposure and job skills, meeting people with similar interests, feeling good about doing their share to ease suffering, providing a child with a friend that they wish they had as a child, having fun, testing future career interests, easing suffering.. .and the list could go on and on. The common theme with ALL of our volunteers is the sincere desire and motivation to serve. According to Rhoda M. Doresy, President of Goucher College, "More and more corporations are becoming aware of the added value that employees who volunteer bring to their jobs." Doresy encourages volunteer com­ munity service as a way to "pay socie­ ty back in a small way for all that we receive from it." She speaks of a "Fear of Volunteerism" as a phenomenon of corporate career oriented people and urges those interested in key administrative posi­ tions to branch out, become involved, knowing that the rewards of volunteerism help spread good work and feelings throughout the community and business world. It also promotes well-roundedness in individuals. The Students of the 80's all over the country are reaching out to others in increasing numbers. A quote from a Georgetown University student, Elaine Rankin sums up volunteer ser­ vice nicely: "In class we study the big questions, at the homeless shelter we LIVE the big questions." (Time March 1987) To the 67 Student volunteers of the Student Service Learning Project, thank you for your willingness to live the big questions. Serving good food but lacking in service By GEORGE L. HILBISH Appalachian Staff Writer It's difficult to write about St. Sin­ ners because it is one of these far away small places that never seems to be open when everybody else is ready to eat. Actually St. Sinners is open on a regular schedule... I think. When St. Sinners first got off the ground it was in a fairly decent loca­ tion for students. Reason being was, Apollo's was across the street and drawing more people to the downtown area to eat and drink, etc. There was also Our Daily Bread that was staying open later on Friday nights to offer some live entertain­ ment. With the three of them all within 100 feet of each other it gave a person something of a choice. Our Daily Bread was the sandwich shop with their self-service beer coolers, Apollo's was the loud tavern and St. Sinner's was the place to go if you wanted to sit back and play yuppie. Well, Apollo's is gone and ODB is still offering sandwiches to its regular customers and St. Sinners is sort of on the far side. Its crowd is good for lunch and I think they have an excellent Sunday brunch, but then make sure they're open. Something that seems to never change is their lack of beer selection. Oh, they'll have it on the menu, but the beer man always forgets to bring it. Don't go there if you're in a hurry. They take their time preparing food. Try not to take the service personally. Appc Photo br AMI,on layton St. Sinner's Cafe located in downtown Boone. St. Sinners is a small place and when they get crowded it's very difficult for the staff to move around. St. Sinners can be a nice place to go and eat. It's not that far away, just downtown. The prices aren't bad and they do have live entertainment sometimes. They're open in the mornings for breakfast starting at 8 a.m. and clos­ ing during the week at 4 p.m. On Saturdays they're open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday brunch is from 9 a m. to 2 p.m. They're closed on Mondays. Try their crepes.

She pulled out a cup and went to the refrigerator. "I can see that," she said. She tossed her long, auburn hair back and peered into the fridge so intently I could only guess she was wondering if the light really did shut off when she closed the door.

Mostly wh^PveSnLTb^ntw alSum^easeTfrom'ome pretty strange-look.ng groups, but the other day I got something new and d?f ferent. At fh°U!.ht 11 HWaS,a tape' but when 1 opened it, I discovered that it was a deck of cards and a die. The front of the package read, "Soap Opera Challenge." Well, that's kind of neat, watch a few of the soaps enough to know what's going on, like who is sleeping/slept/ wants to sleep with whom Unfortunately, this was "Days of Our Lives" -type home game rather than something really good. Like the Guiding Light.) Not being a true believer, and realizing that 1 wouldn't get much out of the game due to an absence of questions about Rick Roxie, Phillip, Alan, and Reva (the important people on television), I passed the game along to some friends. These people are dedicated fans. Cara schedules her day around watching Days of Our Lives. Jason skips class to watch the show with Cara. Angela bought a V CR to tape the daily episodes so that she can watch the show at her leisure. I'm not sure how Lisa gets her daily hour of programming in, but since she s Angela s roommate, I assume that she also watches taped episodes You should've seen them when I told them that I had a new toy for them to check out. They all got real excited, and declared that they would go back and check the game out right away. Although all four enjoyed the game, I think that Lisa and Cara liked it the most. Cara liked it because she won. You play the game just like any other question-and-answer in pursuit of trivial knowledge game. There are six categories: Love Affairs and Friendships, The Family Tree, Characters and Circumstances, Death and Disappearances, It's a Crime, and Challenge Plus. Kinda neato. The group said they would change a few things though. First of all, the game needs a timer. Someone cleverly suggested an hourglass, you know—the show's symbol. The game also needs either a third person to serve as a judge, or more questions, because the players found that after a while they had memorized the answers to several different questions just from answering the same question within a short time period. One final comment was that some of the questions were in well, ques­ tionable taste. One question read, "What is Ian Griffin's unfortunate hang­ up?" Answer—"He likes raping young women." That's not really a hang-up. That's a serious mental disturbance. A hang-up is when you enjoy something weird, like watching Punky Brewster cartoons while eating Ice Cream Cones Cereal. Neither of which, incidentally, do I enjoy. Anyway, the game is supposed to hit the stores sometime this month, and it's approximately the same price as your average decent beer, ($3.99), and it could add some variations to the old standard beer games; even I get tired of "Hi, Bob" after awhile. So maybe you might want to check it out. At least you could truthfully tell your parents that you learned a lot of interesting things at college this semester How anyone could go to see Rocky Horror Picture Show and not manage to have fun is beyond me. It was the third time I'd been to see it and I must say I enjoyed it thoroughly. I think that may have been the biggest crowd I've seen at a H'Appy's event yet. If it weren't the biggest, it certainly seemed like it. (This was one rowdy group of people.) Anyone who isn't a "virgin" i.e., has seen Rocky Horror before, knows it lends itself to crazed behavior. In case you haven't seen it, here's a basic plot summary. The nerdy guy gets the basically frigid girl. They sing. They drive. The tire goes flat outside a gloomy, lightningilluminated mansion which just so happens to be inhabited by a bisexual transvestite. Got it so tar? Good. Because if you thought that it was bizarre already, believe me it does get worse.

Reflecting this return to an old trend, H'Appy's is bringing a bit of Metal to Boone. The group Ice Water Mansion, one of the hottest Metal groups on the East Coast, will be performing at II" . East Hall, the SubHumans in par­ ticular, was responsible for all of the above. There's even a stupid dance to RO with the songs, the Time Warp dance, "...it's just a jump to the left, and then a step to the right, so put your hands on your hips, and turn your knees in tight. Then it's the pelvic thrust that really drives you in­ sane. . .let's do the time warp again." Make sense to you? Me either, but neither does the rest of the movie, so that's O.K. People still dance, scream occasionally bawdy jokes, and throw things at appropriate intervals. If you're not really into cleanliness, like having rice in your hair, and feel the urge to cut loose and be wild and immature at a movie without being thrown out, I recommend Rocky Horror highly. Actually, I wish that it would come more often but since it doesn't, it looks like we'll have to wait until next year to drag out the eyeliner and the rice and "do the time warp again".

Psychoanalysis also told him that his sister-in-law had a hidden desire for him. Retallick did a marvelous job of handling the com­ edy that arose as a result of this situa­ tion. The second one-act play was The Love Course, written by A.P. Gurney, Jr. and directed by Kim Col­ eman. This play centered on the for­ bidden, tragic love glamorized in many classic novels throughout the centuries. David Smith and Karen Duckett played the lead characters, and did a great job of portraying the sticky situation of two teachers in love. Working together, they made a hilarious couple and this made the en­ tire play a hit. Both plays were a treat to see, and not only were they entertaining, but they showed off some of the fine talent ASU has to offer.

V• * vu might be Mozart's Magic Flute is a success The Magic Flute performed at ASU from October 28-31 was a great pleasure to see. The opera featured college members and singers from New York. Their performance did justice to Mozart's work. The opera is the story of Tamino, who has been hired by the Queen of the Night, and his quest for Pamina, who has been abducted by Sarastro, a sup­ posedly evil villain. Tamino is assisted in his quest by the hapless Papageno, the Queen of the Night's birdcatcher. Tamino eventually discovers that Sarastro is not truly evil, but rather kind and wise. Tamino undertakes the trials of initia­ tion to become part of Sarastro's brotherhood, which strongly resembles the Masons. In the course of the drama, notwithstanding the argument over who deserves the Princess Pamina, everything turns out for the best. 1 he entire cast played their roles well. James Hay, one of the actors from New York, did a particularly good job as Tamino, and his sidekick Papageno, played by John Muriello, an ASU faculty member, played his part amusingly and well. Another Appalachian teacher, Julia Pedigo, was a convincing Pamina. Cori Ellison, the soprano from New York who played the Queen of the Night, seemed to have some difficulty with her highest notes, but otherwise sang beautifully. The supporting cast also sang and acted with remarkaoie Ice Water Mansion Brings Metal to Boone Metal rock is coming back into after a period of shying away from this type of music.

It was the ninth week of the 1986 season when the Apps traveled to Huntington, W.Va., to take on The Thundering Herd of Marshall. ASU stood unbeaten in conference play and a win over the Herd combined with a Western Carolina loss to UT-Chattanooga would clinch the first ever Southern Conference title in school history for ASU The Mountaineers spanked the Herd 27-17 and when the Moccasins of Chattanooga destroyed the Catamounts 34-7, the celebration began in Boone History is right on the verge of repeating itself as the ninth game of the season is here and the Herd is in town for a very important showdown with the conference-leading Apps. Funny thing is Western Carolina has a pretty big Southern Conference contest of its own to play Saturday against, you guessed it, the Moccasins of Chattanooga. The scenario is almost identical to one year ago as a Mountaineer victory at home coupled with a Moc win over Western would bring the Apps their second title in as many years. The only difference from last year would be the chance to win the title at home and the celebration could begin in the friendly confines of Conrad Stadium. The Western-Chattanooga match up is a day game so the few students who hang around for the second half of ASU's contest should pretty well know the verdict by games end. The outlook is very good for the Apps as Western Carolina hasn't beaten UT-C in three years and the Mountaineers haven't lost a regular season game in Conrad Stadium since October 17, 1985. With Marshall and Western being the only two teams with a shot at the league crown other than ASU, the job is a little easier for the Apps. The Herd and Catamounts practically cut their own throats before the first kickoff of the '87 season. While most conference contenders play seven SC games, WCU and Marshall play only six. To top it all off, they left permanent fixtures at the bot­ tom of the Southern Conference off their schedules. The Catamounts fail to play VMI in '87 while the Herd left off the Bulldogs of the Citadel, the seventh and eighth place teams in this week's conference standings. Still, we can't jump the gun. Marshall brings a very potent offensive attack to Boone on Saturday and the Catamounts do have Chattanooga at home. But even if the deja vu scenario doesn't develop this weekend, the Moun­ taineers need only to win two of their last three games to win the title outright. This weekend's showdown with Marshall is also important should the Apps enter post-season play once again. One determining factor in deciding who gets the homefield advantage in the playoffs is attendance. Although the turnout was dismal for the first three home games, a record crowd made it to Homecoming and another big crowd is needed Saturday if ASU is to play anymore games at home in '87. Let's just hope that week number nine will smile on the Apps for the second year in a row. Athlete of the Week Melchor leads offensive resurgence at ETSU By MIKE SMITH Appalachian Sports Editor The Appalachian State offense has been a maligned group for much of the 1987 football season. They are constantly criticized for their inability to move the ball and Put points on the board. The ASU of­ fense is a ball-control ground at­ tack—not especially pleasing to many fans. , With a passing game that is often '"adequate, much of the offense's responsibility rests with the running backs. I—Last Saturday at East Tennessee ttJJ State, the ASU offense seemed to make a breakthrough by grounding out 292 yards rushing. Running back Ritchie Melchor was a key in the Mountaineers' 28-9 vic­ tory, rushing for 122 yards on 16 car­ ries and one touchdown. For his ac­ complishments, Melchor has been named The Appalachian Athlete of the Week. "We (running backs) don't feel any extra pressure when we're not passing the ball," Melchor said. "We want ——r Appalachian Photo by Kolth Jonot "back Ritchie Melchor (20) rushed for 122 yards against ETSU. The Appalachian State Moun­ taineers face another stern test this weekend as they take on the Marshall Thundering Herd in a Southern Con­ ference match up. After defeating East Tennessee State last weekend, the Apps now stand at 6-2 overall and 4-0 in the league. With a victory over the Herd on Saturday, November 7, the Apps could all but lock up a second straight Southern Conference title. A victory over the Herd will be hard to achieve however, because Marshall has one of the most ex­ plosive offenses in the country. "They can score from anywhere on the field and will make the big play time after time," said ASU Head Coach Sparky Woods. "They will hit the long passes, reverses, reverse passes, kickoff returns, long run, you name it, they have done it." Triggering a Herd offense that rings the scoreboard to the tune of 337 yards passing and 32 points per game is quarterback Tony Petersen. Petersen is having a career-like season. Thus far, he has completed 195 passes in 350 attempts for 2,790 yards and 18 touchdowns. Petersen has many quality players to throw to, as his receiving corps is talented and deep. Heading up this group of game breakers is split end Mike Barber. Barber has caught 58 passes for 982 yards and six touchdowns this season. The other receiver is Bruce Ham­ mond. Hammond has snagged 30 passes for 552 yards and two scores on the year. Appalachian Photo by Morahall University SID Tony Petersen The third receiver Keith Baxter is the second leading scorer on the squad with seven touchdowns. Baxter is a flyer, and likes to go deep, or run reverses. Tight end Sean Doctor is second to Barber, having hauled in 53 passes for 726 yards and five scores this year. "Marshall has great players," said Woods. "Their quarterback and receivers are exceptional. The biggest addition to their team has to be Doc- 'or. He is a big-tune player." Even with their explosive passing game, the Herd still has the leading rusher in the Southern Conference in Ronald Darby. Darby has rushed for 773 yards on 177 carries. "Darby is one of the top rushers in the conference," said Woods. "He causes you to have to concentrate on the run, as well as their passing game." Marshall has a huge offensive line that excels in pass protection, but run blocks well too. The quintet of Greg Atkins, Jay Gleich, Jim Torres, John Halford, and John Talkington average 6-3 and 270. "They are the biggest team that we've faced," said Woods. "Their of­ fensive line is huge, they tie you up and that little back scoots through the crevices." The Herd leads the Southern Con­ ference in just about every offensive category there is. The App defense will have to play to the best of their capabilities to contain this explosive unit. "When you think of Marshall, you think explosive," said Woods. "They make you play the entire field defen­ sively." The match up between the Herd of­ fense and the Mountaineer defense looks to be very interesting indeed. The App defense has yielded just two touchdowns and eight field goals in the last 23 quarters. Defensively, Marshall is very strong. The unit is very experienced, as most of the players are seniors or juniors and have played a lot of foot­ ball in their careers. Up front Cecil Fletcher, Shawn Finnan, Bill Mendoza and Tony Bolland patrol. The unit is very physical with Bolland being the premiere player. "They are the strongest defensive line we've faced all year," said ASU Offensive Line Coach Art Wilkins. "They are tough and have good fun­ damentals. No one has blocked Bolland all year." The linebackers are as good as any in the Southern Conference and are led by John Spellacy, Rondell Wannamaker and Jerome Hazard. Spellacy leads the Herd in tackles with 112. "Spellacy is a coaches dream," said Wilkins. "He gives you 100 percent on every play." Wannamaker seems to always be around the football. He has started two games and has an interception in both. Hazard is a unique player in that not only does he start at outside linebacker, but he also starts at fullback, a la Holy Cross 60-minute man Gordie Lockbaum. "It is a tribute to him that he can play both ways," said Wilkins. "It shows the type of athlete that he is." The secondary is also loaded with quality players. The safeties are Ken Green and Mark Snyder, they are flanked by corners Reggie Giles and Darryl Burgess. Mark Snyder was the Southern Conference Defensive Player of the Week last week for his performance against UT-C. This is the fourth straight game in which an opposing player has received player of the week prior to playing the Apps. See HERD Page 11 Hokies hand ASU third straight loss, 4-2 By ERIC BOLASH Appalachian Slaff Writer Tuesday was a disappointing night for the Appalachian State soccer team as the Mountaineers battled for ninety minutes, but came up empty in a 4-2 loss to Virginia Tech. The Apps started slow as Virginia Tech broke the defense right away. A Tech striker bent the ball around the wall which ASU had set up in front of a free kick. The ball surprised goalkeeper Pat Scully and the Hokies went ahead 1-0. A through-ball to a wide open striker on the right produced VT's second goal. The shot blasted about a foot from Scully's hand, and he made no effort to save the ball. Down two goals, the Mountaineers finally came to life. Neil Wlodyka received a rolling ball from about eighteen yards out and ripped a hard shot into the upper-right corner to pull ASU within one. John Cerak then stole the ball and placed it to Brian Flynn. In a one-onone play with the goalkeeper inside the six yard line, Flynn faked the shot putting the keeper on the turf, and easily tied the game. Appalachian showed high spirit in this comeback, and, at halftime, the game was a new one. "We've been able to come back all year," ASU Coach Art Rex said. "It sometimes takes a goal to wake us up. The second half began as the first, but did not have the same outcome. Appalachian kept good pressure on the Hokies in the front and midfield, however, ASU's defense was broken for two more goals. "We made early mistakes due to poor marking," Rex said. "We've had good games from individuals, but it's hard to get all the players motivated." The second half was quite rough. ASU went hard to the ball and Rex felt his team controlled 90 percent of the second half. "It almost seemed unjust to come away that empty-handed. It was a frustrating, disappointing game; we're working hard enough, but we just can't get the breaks," Rex commented. The evenness of the two teams was quite evident when looking at shots on goal. The Hokies only outshot ASU, 11-10. Rex expects the team to play well in their upcoming game against David­ son. The game will be ASU's last game of the year, and will be played Saturday, November 7, at Davidson. "This game is for second in the Conference," Rex said. "I'd say that we're where we should be, but it's disappointing that we didn't do so well out of Conference." Appalachian Photo by Koith ionot ASU fell to 7-9-1 after Tuesday night's loss to VP!, 4-2. Heady senior leads soccer squad Crusaders By SABRINA SELLS Appalachian Slaff Writer To a senior on the ASU soccer team, a .500 record is somewhat disappointing. But the team's less than outstanding record of 7-9-1 has not stopped senior Kirk Kropinack from performing brilliantly this season. He is tied fc?r the team lead in total points with 13, including five goals and three assists. He also ranks sixth in the Southern Conference in scoring. Kropinack, from Swansboro, NC, transferred from Western Carolina University after they dropped their soccer program. Now in his third season at ASU, he feels he made the best decision by deciding to transfer here. "After I graduated from high school, Western had offered me both academic and athletic scholarships, but ASU never made me a definite of­ fer," Kropinack said. "But when Western dropped soccer, I automatically became eligible to play at another school. That's when I decided to come up here. Now I feel that I went from the worst team in the Southern Conference to the best." Coach Art Rex is glad that Kropinack made the decision to transfer to ASU also. "I'm very pleased with his perfor­ mance this year," Rex said. "He's Appalachian Photo by ASU SIO Kirk Kropinack doing a nice, solid job." Rex also feels that Kropinack helps provide strong leadership to the team. "He does a good job both on and off the field," Rex said. "I think the other players really look up to him." Kropinack's position on the team is well earned. He has ranked either first or second on the team in scoring all year. "I think we expected him to do that," Rex said. "Right now, everybody on the team is adding in (scoring). He's doing as much as could be expected of him, but I know that he's disappointed finishing his career at .500." "It has been a somewhat disap­ pointing season and a really strange one," Kropinack said. "There is just something lacking on the team, and I'm not sure what it is." He is not hanging his head low, though. Kropinack is eager to try and win the rest of the season. "If you're a senior, you want to go out in big style," Rex said. "I think it's easy to second guess everything when you're at .500, but he has been very supportive with me in the things I've done with the soccer program." And that's exactly what Kropinack is trying to do. With only one game left, he wants to end his last season on a positive note. "I would just like to finish the season above the .500 mark," Kropinack said. "I'll feel much better if we win the last two games, especial­ ly against Davidson. They are one of our top rivals. They are always a lot of fun to play." While he will be graduating in May with a degree in biology, Kropinack will be back at ASU next year work- See KROPINACK Page 11 holdfirm infirst For the third week in a row the Crusaders of Holy Cross and the Ap­ palachian State Mountaineers remain­ ed numbers one and two in the I-AA top twenty. The Crusaders (8-0) held on to the top spot by virtue of a 54-10 pasting of Yankee conference foe Massachusetts while ASU (6-2) re­ mained number two following a 28-9 win over East Tennessee State. Jackson State (6-1-1), last week's number three team, dropped to fifth after losing 17-7 to division I-A Southern Mississippi. Jackson State was replaced in the number three spot by James Madison (7-1). The Dukes, whose only loss came at the hands of the Moun­ taineers, squeaked by Towson State 21-19. The only other Southern Con­ ference squad to crank the top twenty was the Thundering Herd of Marshall (6-3) at 18th. See TOP 20 Page 10 �HOW THEY STACK UP ASU vs MARSHALL COMMENT CATEGORY The Appalachian State ground attack hit full throttle last week rushing for 292 yards against East Tennessee State. Tailbacks Ritchie Melchor (558 yards) and Tim Sanders (583) both smashed the 100-yard barrier. The App offensive line was the key to the Moun­ taineers' success on the ground, consistently blowing the Bucs off the line. ASU's two scor­ ing drives in the first half came without a passing play. The Apps now average 201 rushing yards per game. That almost doubles the Marshall average of 108.7. Ron Darby leads all Herd rushers with 85.9 yards per game and nine touchdowns. He needs 227 yards in his final two contest to break 1,000 yards for the season. Running Marshall leads the l-AA nation in passing averaging 337.2 yards a game. QB Tony Petersen is the leading candidate for SC Offensive Player of the Year. He hits 55.7 per­ cent of his attempts for 18 touchdowns and 22 interceptions. Petersen cannot afford turn­ overs against the opportunistic defense of ASU. AII-SC receiver Mike Barber leads the SC in receptions with 58 while tight end Sean Doctor has 53, second best in the conference. ASU QB Todd Payton threw his first and second TD passes of the season last week. Though ASU will keep the ball on the ground as much as possible, Payton should have the confidence to put it up when necessary. Passing The Mountaineers saw one of the nation's premiere QBs in Todd Ellis of South Carolina earlier this year. This week, they see the nation's top l-AA passer in Petersen. The Apps' pass rush will need to be at full force Saturday to keep Petersen on the run. Last year, the App secondary had the Herd receivers petrified to come across the middle for the ball due to the hits they endured most of the game. While the Herd may see revenge as a factor, they won't forget how it felt to come across the middle to catch a ball. The Herd defenders have not exactly been a stone wall against the run. They give up 193.3 yards rushing a game while the opposition passes for 139.4 per game. Defense The ETSU game marked the first time this year that Bjorn Nittmo has not attempted a field goal for the Apps. He stands 13-18 on the year with his longest coming from 51 yards. Punter Tony Cox averages 37.1 yards per punt. Marshall has seldom had need for a place kicker. John Mitchell is 4-7 on the year and 19-19 on PATs. His longest FG came from 46 yards. Punter Todd Pugate averages 37.6. Kicking 1. Holy Cross (4) 2. Appalachian St. 3. James Madison 4. N. Texas St. 5. Jackson St. 4. New Hampshire 7. No. Iowa B. NE Louisiana 9. Delaware St. 10.

Cola VICTORS: ASU's interfraternity council flag football team travelled to Johnson City, Tenn., Saturday morning for an encounter with ETSU's 1FC squad in the King of the Mountain game. Paced by Dan Duffy and Mike Helsabeck, the ASU greeks came out on top, 6-0 A celebration was held afterwards at Poor Richards. The trophy will re­ main in Boone until next year's confrontation. This year's game was in ETSU's minidome. The Mountaineers have put themselves in the mode. They are locked in for a Southern Conference crown and they know what it takes to win it. They could possibly clinch Saturday with a win over Marshall and a WCU loss to UT-C. Marshall was in the position to take it all last year, but folded under ASU's heat. They remember what happened last year, which may be in ASU's favor because it isn't easy to forget how it feels to go across the middle of ASU's secondary. But to end all doubts, ASU is in Conrad Stadium where they haven't lost a regular season game since 1984.

"The offense was happy to put 28 ioints on the board. We didn't want rely on Bjorn (Nittmo) every time. Ve know we have a good offense and ,e keep improving every week." Going into the game, the Apps were onfident they could move the ball on !e smaller Bucs. Averaging over 40 ounds more per man than ETSU, 3e Mountaineer offensive line was hie to blow the Bucs off the ball for iuch of the contest. "We knew we could move the ball n them," Melchor said. "We were loving the ball well most of the ante. Their defensive line couldn't top our offensive line." It has been necessary for the of:nse to make the most of their oportunities this year with their tendeni/ to bog down. ASU's defense and serial teams are known for their biglay capabilities as the Apps stand . 13 in turnover margin (takeaways linus giveaways). Such was the case when ASU efensive back Quincy Bethea intrcepted a Jeff Morgan pass and jturned it out to the 45 yard line with :38 left before intermission. Keeping ie ball strictly on the ground, the ,pps scored for a 7-3 lead. ASU followed that touchdown with nother scoring drive on their next ossession. Again using all running lays, the Mountaineers moved 69 ards on seven plays for the 14-3 lead, lelchor capped the drive with a nifty 4-yard run off right end for the :ore. "Whenever the defense makes a big lay, we (offense) get emotionally igh," Melchor said. "We want to apitalize on the defense's play." Melchor, a sophomore, shows his modest nature when he explains how he gained the majority of his yards. Our offensive line was doing the job, he said. "I run better if the noles are there." Melchor is not familiar with his role , 'iw , ing up Tim Sanders at tailback. « West Charlotte High school, he racked up player of the year awards from The Charlotte Observer, Channel nine and Channel three as well as all-conference and allcounty recognition. Sanders and Melchor share most of the tailback duties but Melchor ad­ mits he had rather be in the game for ASU's first offensive series. 'I'd like to be starting the game," Melchor said. "But I think we com­ plement each other well since we run somewhat alike. It helps to keep fresh backs in the game." When Melchor and Sanders finish­ ed spring practice, they didn't know who would be ASU's starting tailback. "The coach told us we were run­ ning neck and neck," Melchor said. "Tim was running better-breaking the long runs. I was just consistent." Melchor doesn't possess the breakaway speed of Sanders, but simply gets the job done with foot speed and exceptional quickness. He has been known to give a hip to a defender and take it away like a magi­ cian. The offense's improvement will be imperative for the Apps' to continue to be successful as Melchor searches for his second consecutive Southern Conference title and possible national championship. 11 Kropinack Herd pzmzxzmjiimzxzxzxi Continued from Page 9 Continued from Page 9 Giles is the premiere cornerback in the Southern Conference, and a can­ didate for All-America as well as SC Defensive Player of the Year. "He's just an outstanding corner," said Woods. "He's got great speed and quickness." The Herd kicking game is also outstanding with Todd Fugate handl­ ing the punting and Brian Mitchell doing the kicking. Darby and Baxter are also a dangerous duo returning kicks. Bax'T took the opening kick off 89 yards ing on his M.B.A. in business. And even though he will not be out on the field as a Mountaineer player, he will probably be somewhere close by. He really hates to see his college soccer career come to an end, and even if tne record does not reflect Kropinack's outstanding performance, he has made his senior year a big year by contributing his scoring and his leadership to the Mountaineer squad. Lower Lung Cancer Risk Smokers of filtered, low tar cigarettes have a lower lung cancer risk compared to smok­ ers of nonfiltered, higher tar cigarettes, says the American Cancer Society. However, the lung cancer risk for both types of smokers is substantially higher than the risk for noii smokers. for a score against Chattanooga last week. Turnovers could also be a big fac­ tor in the outcome of the game. Petersen has shown that he is human by throwing 22 interceptions. The Herd had an incredible eight miscues against UT-C, but still won the game 28-26. "They beat TennesseeChattanooga in Chattanooga, and beat Louisville on the road, so they know about winning away from home," said Woods. "We will have to play the best of our capabilities in order to have a chance to win.

Editorial Production Manager TERESA CHALK, Advertising Production Manager Greek housing Whether to build Greek housing on campus has been a recurring question for nearly 15 years. Currently, some fraternities and sororities live in Cannon residence hall under an agreement with Residence Life to fill their allotted number of rooms ASU administration is considering possible sights build a Greek Row or "Greek Court" in the university's long 1 5 range planning. If it is handled properly, building separate housing for Greeks can benefit the entire campus. If the Greek system-either by chapter or individual residents—pays for the buildings, the additional housing cost the rest of campus nothing. Drawing Greeks out of the residence halls would also free many rooms for independents wishing 5 to live on campus. t, By f"tra'lzing Grf.ek housing to one place on campus, ASU Securiy, not the Boone police, would have jurisdiction over them. Housing would also prevent fraternity houses from springing up throughout the community. The houses would serve as an incentive to both pro­ spective students to attend ASU and to Greek alumni to contribute money to the university. The relationship between independents and Greeks at ASU is a comparatively good one. This may be due, in part, to the lack of Greek housing. Greeks are forced to integrate with the rest of campus. USed seParate'y from everyone else, the Greek system fh 3rJ and the administration must take precautions so that a Greek Court camnnf rh sorority members from the rest of campus. This kind of separation could fatally damage the tolerant feelings enjoyed between Greeks and independents.

Rairdon begins by launching an attack against the dissemination of propaganda; then, suddenly, in the very next paragraph, he himself assumes the missionary position and proffers some propaganda of his own: "They (the Marxists) have re­ jected Eden's creator so they are left to try to create Eden themselves. It won't work. There will be no Eden without God and no peace without the Prince of Peace." According to The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, propagana is defined as: "1. The systematic {iropagation 0f a given doctrine or of allegations reflecting its views and interests. 2. Material disseminated by the proselytizers of a doctrine." Rairdon's ineptly executed article certainly fulfills this criteria, as does the Bible and the American Con­ stitution. Earlier Rairdon implies that pro­ paganda is anathema, an evil thing we do not want permeating the air of 'River City". By first denounc­ ing propaganda and then presenting his own, perhaps Rairdon is sub­ consciously wishing to discredit _ A ^ ^ J hsm^tc c " himself from the very beginning. (Actually, he does this anyway by arguing that "man (pardon his use of the gender-specific reference, but what can one expect?) is corrupt." What is much more likely is that Rairdon simply does not appreciate the subtleties of the craft he pretends to practice, nor does he ful­ ly comprehend the meaning of the terminology he presumes to employ. One of two things is certain: Rair­ don has never read Marx and the exeges!s of Marxian commentators, or, he has, he did not comprehend the information contained in the text(s). This is not to imply that a competent reading of Marx will con­ vert one to Marxism or make one sympathetic toward his ideas.

Appalachian Staff Writer Fee Forum Yale Denies Being A 'Gay School' Freshman and transfer admissions to decline By MARGARET MUGNIER There will be a fee forum to discuss possible fee increases for next year. Members of the ASU Administration will speak on possible increases :onight at 6:15 p.m. in Room 104 of Whitener Hall, f For the last three years ASU has had an increase in applications and there could be an increase this year. "We have received 24 percent more Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores than last year," ASU Admissions Director Joe Watts said. By this time last year the Admis­ sions office had received 6,445 SAT scores. This year they have received 7,973 scores. These SAT scores are of last year's high school juniors who had taken SATs by June. Apparently trying to calm alumni fears andj reserve a rich source of donations to the school, Kale president Benno C. Schmidt sent a letter last veek to some 2,000 fundraisers condemning an "Almost one-third of the (North August newspaper opinion article that called Yale a Carolina) students who took the 'gay school."

University of North Carolina system are requiring that applicants have taken four course units in college preparatory English; three units in mathematics, including geometry, Algebra I and Algebra II; two units in scoial studies, including one in US history; and three units in science, in­ cluding one unit in a life science and one unit in a physical science course. Admitted students are also required to present a satisfactory health record after their academic approval. "We have to double our acceptance to get the number we want," Watts said. Watts said this year ASU would like a freshman class of 1,850 to 1,900 as opposed to the 2,000 of last year. Admissions would also like 620 transfer students as opposed to the 760 of last year. The reason for this decline is to limit the number of students to the amount of resources. ASU's admissions are on a rolling basis. Each week they review the ap­ plications they have received.

" Bob McMahon ( UP Appalachian Photo by Kotth Jonoa Director of Student Development Lee McCaskey A new position in the Student Development Center has been created by ASU to assist in the training of student leaders. The position will be the Student Develop­ ment and Leadership Instructor and will involve the development of new leadership programs. "I think we need the person to assist us with more contact hours and designing and developing leadership programs," Director for the Student Development Center Lee McCaskey said. The Student Development and Leadership Instructor will assist instruction in leadership classes, supervise Student Legal Services, advise the Panhellenic Council and consult faculty and alumni advisors of recognized sorority chapters. At the present time the Assistant Director for the Student Development Center Dino DiBernardi is in charge of handling Greek affairs. "This will basically make Dino a fraternity advisor," IFC President Cam Mills said. "I think it's a good idea, but they should have one person whose sole responsibility is Greek life," he added. DiBernardi expressed enthusiasm about the new position and said he feels it will benefit the Student Development Center. "It will help us better suit the needs of stu­ dent organizations," DiBernardi said. "The position will provide us with more staff sup­ port to work on leadership development," he said.

This year, I believe the relationship is changing for the better. Residence Life staff has felt, according to comments made to me by various staff members, that the ASU Judicial System does little to discipline students. Residence Life feels as if they do their best to provide the students of ASU with an educa­ tional environment in which the stu­ dent should not only have to, but should also want to take responsibili­ ty for their conduct. Residence Life has felt that since Judiciary has, in the past, given weak, inconsequential sanctions, the student does not learn from his or her mistakes. This year, I along with the other officers of the court, have taken and are taking steps to remedy this negative reputation. Since we have a full court this year, the first full court in quite a while, students are represented to the fullest are able to provide ihe best, most ex­ perienced council for defendents. by the Judicial System. The present officers of the court have previously been involved with Judiciary and thus Also, the number of cases cleared this year (100), proves that the court is serious about defendents and student law. At the beginning of the school year, Residence Life sponsored a judicial training workshop for its staff members. Although negative points may have been overly emphasized, I believe some good came out of the discussions which later took place among Residence Life staff members. Residence Life, on the flip side, has done an excellent job guiding students and enforcing student law. The Residence Life Intervention System seems to be working, as we have not had any referrals of minor violations such as Quiet Hours or Violation of Visitation. Residence Life Staff should also be commended for their strict enforcement of the Underage Drinking Policy. It is easy to see that Residence Life and Student Judiciary seem to be working well together. I have received many positive responses from various Area Coordinators, Resident Direc­ tors and Resident Assistants. However, I have also received negative comments about certain aspects of the "system." I welcome any comments that Residence Life staff members have, as any comment or suggestion would be beneficial and much appreciated. If the progress being made can be continually evaluated and worked on, I believe a strong relationship can be I built between Judiciary and Residence | Life. All Residence Life staff members I are encouraged to observe court on Wednesday nights at 6 p.m. in I Workman Hall. Also, any residence! hall that is interested in having aj judicial officer speak at an RSAI meeting or staff meeting needs to con-| tact me at 262-2102.

K Appalachiaa Staff Writer There is a creative learning environ­ ment for grade school children in Boone called Mountain Pathways School, located on Howard's Creek road in Boone. Director Ann Norwood refers to it as an "alternative" school based on the premise that "every child is gifted." The school was opened on September 9, but it has been in the planning stages for quite a while. There are nine students at this private institution, and Norwood feels the school is meeting a need in the area. "It (the school) has a lot of flexibility because of the studentteacher ratio," Norwood said. The atmosphere of the learning environ­ ment is reflected in the school rules, "We are totally opposed to corporal punishment. There are other ways to discipline." Norwood which the children, in grades up to five, had input in writing. Examples are: People may not hurt other peo­ ple at our school; no weapons may be used or brought to our school, real, commercial toys, handmade, or sym­ bolic; and children have the right not to be involved in a free play game if they don't want to play. The school itself is bright and cheerful inside, with maps and assorted things the children have made decorating the walls. One side of the room is covered with a map of the Blue Ridge Parkway and the viaduct area, which the students studied and took a field trip to later. They have also taken a trip to Grand­ father Mountain this year, Norwood said. The school's curriculum stresses environmental studies such as these. "We eat lunch out of Honrc " Norwood said. This is possible, because of the way the school is set up. "The whole day is a little more flexible," Norwood said. The school has two teachers and a director for the nine students, and their philosophy is that "The child has to learn to be an independent learner," Norwood said. The children are "responsible for their own learn­ ing," she added. That is why the school is decorated with the school work, Norwood said. It's a way of giving the students positive reinforce­ ment. Mountain Pathways is not associated with any outside organiza­ tion. "We aren't church related. We're a child related independent school," Norwood said. The school does have to meet a set of rules and regulations, though. These are set by the school board in Raleigh, which enforces regulations for non-public schools. They also have to meet certain local and state health and safety codes. The main freedoms the school does have is in terms of grading, curriculum, scheduling and organizing the students. Mountain Pathways works in full cooperation with the public school system, so that if a child leaves the school there should be no problem with them being able to transfer back into the public school system. This includes standardized testing, so these records will be available to future teachers of that child. Mountain Pathways is in keeping with recent advances in teaching children to use computers also, and they have had computers donated as gifts. According to Norwood, the school does encourage parents and families to get involved with their child's education. They like to draw upon resources other than those right inside the classroom. "We are always welcoming volunteers," Norwood said, especial­ 99 Appalachian Photo by KoMi Jonos One young lady increases her knowledge at Mountain Pathways. ly those wanting to learn about this schools. style of education.

Some frank questions and answers with comedian Rich Hall By ASHLEY McADOO Appalachian Diversions Editor 15 p.m., Thursday October 29. phone rings. It's Portia Healy, Appalachian's Editor-in-Chief. ie asks me if I'm planning to go to Rich Hall concert. I hadn't ned on it; I didn't really have any )lans, just some studying, and a dinner with my friend Vickie, rhey want somebody to interview Hall," she tells me, "I thought should be the one who gets to do WOW. Rich Hall—sniglets! I sniglets, they're the greatest thing s ever been invented. Sure, I'll be to interview him. p.m. I'm standing at the ticket e at Farthing explaining to the it the window that I'm from the r, and that I'm supposed to inter­ view Rich Hall. I get led backstage, where I'm told that he's on the phone (with the West Coast, no less), and that I can wait there for him. 8:25 p.m. Still waiting. The open­ ing act, commedian Todd Yohn is standing in the wings chatting with the tech crew. I can hear little bits of the conversation, and lots of laughter. One of the A.P.P.S. people tells me that he's been talking to everyone, and that he's really nice, and REAL­ LY funny. 8:35 p.m. Mr. Hall is off the phone. I'm a little nervous. After all he's been on television and everything, and the general backstage consensus is that he's not an overly friendly person. I get introduced to him and I get out my list of questions that I had prepared earlier. The first thing that I noticed was how he looked. He looked exhausted, circles under his eyes, hair every which way, kinda like he'd died, and nobody had bothered to tell him. I started off with what I'm sure is a standard question, "How did you get interested in comedy?" Well, he's not. He said that he really would rather be driving a fork lift for a bottl­ ing company, and that comedy was just a fraudulent way to make a living until something else opened up. Okay. He didn't want to talk about my next question, how did sniglets get started, so I went on to "What do you feel has been your biggest success?" He said that SNL has been the most enjoyable, but not the most fulfilling. What he really likes is being able to develop many different characters and lose himself in those characters. "How many other schools have you been to recently, and what's been your favorite so far?" 15, and Ohio University, where everything went right. I told him that I didn't expect him to answer ASU, because he hadn't performed here yet, but he did say that his favorite could change after the performance. When I asked him did he feel people expect him to always be funny, he said no. Simple one-word answer. When he's not touring as Rich Hall -comedian, he likes to hang out in the Southwest, putt around his house, and write. He also likes to ski and snowmobile, and he said the skiing in North Carolina is about as bad as it gets. I kinda like it, but then I've never had the chance to ski elsewhere, so I'll take his word for it. "How do you like performing at colleges as compared to clubs?" Col­ leges are much better, he thinks. He prefers to perform in just regular theatres where there is more variety of ages. His favorite comedian is Ernie Kovacs, and he likes music where the bands have integrity. He prefers lyrical value to the musical content so the first band that he named that he likes is.. .Anyone? R.E.M. of course, plus the Replacements, and the Smiths. "Which do you prefer, the West Coast, or the East Coast?" The West Coast. I personally don't see what's so great about California, my little sister went to stay with our cousins in L.A. once, and she's never been the same since. "What are you going to be for Halloween?", got the only smile that Ijaw from him the whole night. He said he was going to be a comedian at Wake Forest at the same time I said, "Besides be on stage at Wake," so he changed his answer to "Paul Harvey." He also added that since he lives in L.A., Halloween is pretty much redundant. Every night there is like Halloween. I was out of neat little questions so I thanked him for his time, and left. I could hear the audience laughing hysterically to the antics of Todd Yohn, and I'm sorry that I couldn't have stayed to see the show. So that was the story of my inter­ view with Rich Hall, comedian and celebrity. He was a little sarcastic, not very enthused with anything, and not very friendly. He wasn't at all like I'd pictured him. But then again, what ever is? rofessor Mu calls ASU home Wallwalkers lead to fame and fortune By AMEE SMITH Appalachian Staff Writer As part of an exchange scholar pro­ gram, Dr. Mu is teaching Chinese in the Foreign Language Department. Visiting the United States from Shenyang, China, Dr. Mu is married and has one son. He graduated from a university in China 5 years ago and has been teaching ever since. Dr. Mu has noticed several dif­ ferences between the Chinese and American university systems "In China, the government pays for the students' education, while in the United States, the students must pay for their own education. I think that is bad," Mu said. "A Chinese professor will go over the material very thoroughly and personally with the students, while American students have a strong ability to do things by themselves. The teachers just give an overview and let the students do the rest." Mu has been in Boone almost three months and will leave in August, after staying in the States one year. He ex­ pressed his appreciation of the people here by saying, "I think the people here are very friendly and nice and are ready to give help. They made me feel welcomed." . Appalachian Photo by Kolth Jonos NJOYS HOSPITALITY: Dr. Mu comes to ASU all the way rang, China. He has only been in the United States a short tlready feels very welcome here in Boone. He ts currently the Foreign Language Department and enjoys his work "The people here are very hospitable and are always happy to have you as a guest in their home. The people of Boone are interested in China and her people in much the same way that the people of China are interested in American people and their customs," he added. Imagine becoming a millionaire by marketing little rubber octopus-like creatures with sticky tentacles that walk down the walls, called Wacky Wallwalkers. That is exactly what happened to toy manufacturer, Ken Hakuta. Hakuta, a graduate of Georgetown University with a MBA from the Harvard Business School, bought the rights to the Japanese toy, and his company, Tradex, was soon sending them worldwide. Hakuta will speak on Wednesday, November 4, at 8 p.m. in Farthing Auditorium. He will discuss "Competing With Japan," as well as his own success and the world of novelty items. The presentation, sponsored by the Performing Arts and Forum Series, a division of Student Programs, is free and open to the public. When a new fad hits, it hits big, and dies fast. Unfortunately, a fad is something that temporarily engages the attention of many and enjoys brief popularity. However, there is always the excep­ tion to the rule. Hakuta's big success with a fad is the Wacky Wallwalker. These creatures slowly tumbled down walls and windows and became one of America's hottest toy fads, which made Hakuta a millionaire. To date, the Wacky Wallwalker has outsold every fad in history, including the Pet Rock, 120 to 1, and Rubiks Cube, 3.5 to 1. U.S. Customs has stopped over six million pirated copies of the Wallwalker. Reportedly, two out of every three people in America has a Wallwalker, and this fad doesn't show any signs of fading. Hakuta has been in business since his college days. While at Georgetown University, he formed Japan Catering to help put himself through school. He worked at the World Bank for two and a half years. When he graduated from Harvard Business School, he was in such a rush to start his own business, he didn't even stay for the graduation ceremonies. He incor­ porated his import/export company, Tradex, which originally exported ironing board covers and cat food products to Japan, and imported Karate uniforms to the United States. Hakuta offered the children an inventor's dream: If they come up with a good idea or a new fad toy he will manufacture several hundred samples at his plant in Korea and help them sell it. (All profits will be turned over to the children's parents for use as a college scholarship fund.) Tradex later became the producer of Wacky Wallwalkers worldwide. Hakuta is a sophisticated businessman, skilled in multinational corporate affairs and international banking, who is now in the wacky world of novelty items. He says he is "doing the silliest business," and adds that he's "having the most fun." One of Hakuta's newest ventures is forming a partnership with the 11-member "Crazy-But-SuccessfulIdeas Club" formed by 11-year old Ethan Bentley of Okemos, Penn­ sylvania. Bentley met Hakuta over the toll-free hot line Hakuta recently started for people seeking advice on marketing new inventions. "He sounded like a very alert and creative kid," Hakuta said. "I told him come up with some ideas and call me back." Bentley called back to say he formed a club to generate the ideas and named Hakuta its honorary presi­ dent. Hakuta offered the children an inventor's dream: If they come up with a good idea or a new fad toy he will manufacture several hundred samples at his plant in Korea and help them sell it. All profits will be turned over to the children's parents for use as a college scholarship fund for the club members. Hakuta said he figures the offer to launch the product will cost him a minimum of about $50,000. Although commercial suc­ cess is the goal, the process of launch­ ing a new product ought to be highly educational for the children no matter what happens, he said. Hakuta said he set up his fad hot line 1-800-USAFADS, as a kind of public service to inventors because he enjoys giving advice and recalls his own difficulties in launching his Wallwalker toy fad. "I could be mak­ ing tons of money in something like trading in stocks or scrap metal, but this is more fun," Hakuta said of his hot line and his new business venture in Okemos. "It sure beats ironingboard covers and pet food."

Me,n^ CoaCh B°b Pollock and women's Coach John Weaver have com­ pleted their respective cycles. Pollock owns the most recent championships in indoor track, outdoor track and cross country. Weaver has won the outdoor tracked cross country titles. Women's indoor track is not yet recognized by For Pollock, his first cross country comes on the heels of four consecutive I indoor and outdoor championships. 1987 cross country season must rank as the best in ASU's history. The SC mKt was the Mountaineers' third championship (Davidson Invitational and ASU Invitational) this year out of five meets. The Apps were runner-up | finishers in the other two meets. "It has got to be one of the best seasons we've had," Pollock said "It's been a very successful season and the Southern Conference championship is the highlight. The guys keep running better times and Saturday we did a heck ot a job. I 11 always remember the first cross country title (this year)." I Since Pollock arrived at ASU, he has dominated the SC. He has garnered I coach of the year honors in indoor track six times and outdoor track on six |occasions. Weaver's Lady Apps, paced by conference individual champ Beth Ruggles successfully defended last year's championship with a victory this year Weaver was bypassed for coach of the year this year, but did claim the award last year for cross country and outdoor track in the first seasons for conference championships in those sports.

Hopefully, a vocal crowd of over 20,000 will be in attendance at Conrad 1 Stadium for what shou d I987's of Appalachian State track continued its dominance over the Southern Con­ ference by bringing home the league crown in both men's and women's cross country over the weekend at Davidson College. The championship was the first ever for the men's team while the women captured the title for the se­ cond consecutive year. "This is the greatest thrill we've had in a long time," ASU men's Coach Bob Pollock said. "You always remember that first one because it is very special. When I saw our guys come out of the woods and head for the finish line, it was like a dream coming true before my eyes." The Apps were led by sophomore Pete Vandenburg who recorded the highest individual finish in ASU history in a Southern Conference championship by coming in fourth. Vandenburg was followed in fifth by Craig Warren while Scott Vance finished seventh. All three were nam­ ed to the All-SC team and Dean Dun­ can barely missed all-league honors placing 11th. The Mountaineers jumped to the lead pack quickly and stayed there together with only 25 seconds separating the top four ASU runners at the finish and 73 seconds between Payton's By TROY DOUGLAS Appalachian Slaff Writer The Appalachian State Moun­ taineers ran their record to 6-2 overall and 4-0 in the Southern Conference with a 28-9 lambasting of the East Tennessee State Buccaneers Saturday night. Offensively the Mountaineers look­ ed awesome, as they pounded the smaller Bucs into submission. The Apps threw the ball only eight times in the entire game, and once in the first half. The Bucs took the early lead on a 32-yard field goal, and seemed to be in control of the contest as the Apps could only generate two first downs in their first two possessions. It was the Mountaineers' defense that ignited their offensive half as free safety Leonard Lee dismembered a would-be Buc receiver coming across the middle causing the ball to bounce all five. "We've been averaging between 72 and 75 seconds and we had to main­ tain that or lower," Pollock said. "We had to place ourselves up toward the front and establish good position. At the one-mile mark, we had four runners in the lead pack and they maintained themselves throughout the race and kept good contact." The Davidson course was extremely well set up and the better prepared runners had the advantage. "Davidson did a good job prepar­ ing the course," Pollock said. "It had the hills and the rolling terrain, but it also had a lot of blind curves. You need speed and strength to go with it and the better conditioned and better mentally prepared runner was able to use a lot of strategy." For bringing back Appalachian's first-ever men's cross country title, Pollock was named Southern Con­ ference Coach-of-the-Year. On the women's side of the cham­ pionship the big name was Beth Rug­ gles. Ruggles set a new Davidson course record en route to winning her second individual crown in three years. "Beth had an outstanding race," said ASU women's coach John Weaver. "She has been an outstand ing leader for us this year." On the team level the race boiled down to a duel between the Thunder­ ing Herd of Marshall and Ap­ palachian with the Mountaineers squeaking by 43-45. "I really thought we could do it, but I knew we had been weak at our four and five spots most of the season," Weaver said. "I thought it would be a toss-up between us, Mar­ shall and UT-C and that is exactly what it was." Having raced the Davidson course before, something Marshall hadn't done, could very well have made the difference for the Mountaineers.

The Apps ground out some im­ pressive numbers with 292 yards rushing paced by Melchor's 122 yards on 16 carries, while Sanders finished with 104 on 27. The Mountaineers return to action this weekend against the Marshall Thundering Herd in another key Southern Conference showdown. The Herd is currently in second place in the conference with a 6-3 overall record and a 3-1 record in the Southern Conference. The Marshall offense is one of the most explosive units in the country and could cause problems for the Apps. Game time is 1:30 p.m. in Conrad Stadium. It will be the last regular season home game for the Moun­ taineer seniors.

The Old Dominion game was quite tough for ASU and hindered their play in the Virginia Commonwealth match, ac­ cording to Rex. Old Dominion got two goals before ASU could answer. First, with only 42 seconds gone, Sean Crowley got ODU's first goal with an assist from Mike Day. This made the score 1-0 at halftime. At 48:37, Doros Constantinous scored an unassisted goal to put the Monarchs ahead 2-0. Appalachian made its first mark at 51:06 with a goal from Bryan Flynn, assisted by Chris Malmfelt. This was Flynn's fifth goal in three games, but it was not enough to spark a victory this time. Old Dominion's Doros Constan­ tinous got his second goal for the day at 8!:30 on an assist from Sean Crowley. Old Dominion, now 11-3-2, is ranked among the top twenty teams in the nation. "They were both good games." claimed Rex. "We played well enough to win them both; we missed ouis, and they got theirs." As to the new 4-2-4 system, Rex claimed that the team was still playing well under it, and that the oppor­ tunities for goals were still coming. Appalachian State takes on Virginia Tech on Tuesday, November 3rd at Conrad Stadium. Tech looks to be very solid, but nothing too ex­ travagant for ASU. Game time is 7 p.m. on Tuesday in what is the Moun­ taineers last home match of the 1987-88 soccer season. Passing—ASU: Payton 4-7-0, 45 yards; Laurendine 1-1-0, 8 yards.

The wrestlers do support her and give her as much help as they can. She has been plagued with knee problems that have hindered her participating in practice at times. Kohlsaat says her friends are proud of her and give her support. Coach Paul Mance is very supportive and helpful, according to Kohlsaat. "I think she is a girl with a lot of courage," Mance said. "She's working hard to do and be the best she can." After only one year of wrestling, she does not expect to be as good as the more advanced wrestlers on the team. She says that it takes years of practice to develop the skills that they have, but she intends to stick with it every bit of the way.

Effective spring semester, unless students have satisfactorily com­ pleted all of the basic entrance courses, they will not be allowed to register for upper level business classes. The dean's office hopes that enforcing the entrance requirements, which have been in place since 1984, will make students better prepared for the higher level coursework. While this new crackdown may make students more prepared for higher level classes, the policy will also create problems. It is becoming increasingly difficult for students majoring in business to graduate in four years without either taking an overload one semester or going to at least one session of summer school. This new enforcement will further jeopardize students who are lacking one course to be admitted to the college of business. Instead of taking upper level classes, students would most likely have to fill up the semester with electives they really do not need. In previous semesters students have been allowed to take upper level courses if they were within a few hours of being a junior or only lacking one or two core entrance requirements. If a student is lacking only one entrance course they should not be put in jeopardy of not graduating on time but be allowed to take upper level courses with the discretion of he dean of the college of business. The new enforcement policy would not be necessary if the dean's office would restrict giving waivers for admittance to only those ;tudents who really need them. The Russians are coming to ASU Thursday begins a weekend of opportunities many students and loone residents may never have again. We have the chance to look at he Soviet Union from a Russian perspective. So many times Americans try to determine what Russians are about XT °,Trn,prrided by the U-SAmerican visitors the U.S.S.R. and American journalists. As objective as these sources lay try to be, the vision is always skewed by the simple fact that a ulture is being interpreted by an outsider. As I left the Student Union last week, I noticed a group of people who had a table set up. They had lots of books and papers and pins on display. With the Homecoming on Saturday, I thought they were trying to raise money for their fraternity or something. These well-meaning people were not sell­ ing stuff for Homecoming; they were Marxists. There is a famous line (in a song from the musical Music Man) that sums up the way I felt: "Trouble! Trouble! Trouble! Yes we've got trouble right here in River City! We got "P," that stands for pool." The sad part about this whole scene was that there was no music and "P" did not stand for pool, it stood for Propaganda. Lots of propaganda! After my blood pressure went down, I started to feel sorry for these people. Anybody naive enough to fall for an empty philosophy like Marxism can use some sympathy or pity or something.

One of the most crucial aspects in the development of any student on the ASU campus is the experiences they have in residence halls. Most students have at least a few years experience in the system, and 1 many find this time to be very rewarding. A central part of any resident hall program is the work of the resident assistant. Therefore, in James Jarrett's article concerning the assumed abuse of authority by RAs, the representation was sadly The job of being an RA carries with it much responsibility and the position can be very misunderstood. What student, who has spent some time living in the residence halls, has not had some contact with an RA? Some students rely on their RAs for guidance in many matters or, more importantly, as a friend. Mr. Jarrett stated in his article that the job of the resident assistant was to enforce the rules of the university. Actually, enforcing rules is not a job but it is one of the # many responsibilities we are commit­ ted to uphold when hired. In fact, when enforcing rules are in question, the primary expectation of an RA is to make sure that their residents know exactly what the rules state. The residents are then responsible for following these rules and they should expect the consequences if they do not. The only explanation of how Mr. Jarrett views the role of the resident assistant is that he is uninformed. He should be encouraged to actually get to know m"own RA and tnen his own ana then make his judgements based on actual knowledge and not assump­ tions and feelings. If this happen surely he will see that this job is* crucial and sometimes unap­ preciated. Jerry Adams Dale Tweedy Missy Kegresse Fred Dodson, Jr. Brad Edwards Joel Thomas Tierza Watts Leesa Neugent Hall Doughton HaU Staff Emotional liberalism won't stop apartheii To the Editor: FreomnTbar Utopian fairy tale of Marxism. I believe that without knowing it, man is still trying to get back to the Garden of Eden. They have rejected Eden's creator so they are left to try to create Eden themselves. It won't work. There will be no Eden without God and no peace on earth without the Prince of Peace. The Marxist presupposes that we can live in peace once we have rid ourselves of the class struggle brought on by the injustice of capitalism. The main problem that I have with this centers on the present nature of man and his perfectability. Man is not socially and economically corrupt because of the contamination of capitalism or the so called "opiate of the people," man is corrupt because he is corrupt. The first man, Adam, broke the law Word of God. This act of transgression changed the nature of all of mankind to this day. Therefore, man who is corrupt down to the core of his fallen nature, cannot of himself create a world system that is not inately corrupt. To expect that man of himself will reform is naive.

The meeting turned out to be a liberal, left-wing, emotionally based, anti-status quo, unstable look at our current political government and its actions toward South Africa. I felt that I was an outcast at the meeting because of my conservative, rightwing outlook on the American government. Sure, everyone bases their philosophies on something vital to their 'self", but I have never seen emotion and unprecedented anti-governmental sentiments as strong as I did at this meeting. I am not undemocratic, but voic­ ing one's opinions should be based on factual, educated-based data, not , . . . on emotions for what seems right or on self-interest. Emotional people are scared to face the facts. Students of ASU and anyone who plans to vote, voice an opinion, or whatever, should do so based on what we know is factual and not on some personal objectives. If one does so on personal objectives, he or she is simply asking for an unstable, in­ consistent America. Lay your mind in the right direction based on facts not on something else, like many of the people at this particular meeting have. I would advise this group (those forming this meeting) to continue on, for there are people out there ------ who would fit into this particular frame of mind. I didn't have to at­ tend this meeting, but I did so (or J least stayed as long as I did) becausr I was interested in what different ideas (liberal ideas in this case) peo­ ple have. This group needs to do this because the information I got out of this meeting did little to sway my knowledge of the subject matter and my "foundation" of our cur­ rent government.

In two years here at ASU, the on­ ly aspect of student life that has disappointed me has been the at­ mosphere at football games. College should be a place for unbridled en­ thusiasm and excitement, but here at Appalachian, students seem more concerned with how they look and where their next drink is coming from than they are about the field of play. My girlfriend and I attended the Wake Forest game at Winston-Salem and the contrast was astounding i It was more like a home game for the Apps, and despite the final outcome we both were very g^d we went.

I'm a graduate student at ASU and also happen to be the Resident Director of Eggers Hall. On my staff are eight well-qualified, hard-working Resident Assistants (RAs), of whom I am very proud and possessive. When I hear or read something such as the article written by James F Jarrett (in the October 27 edition of The Appalachian) in which an RA is reproached for doing his or her job, I get angry. Then I become furious and want to tear the writer limb from limb. Too bad this would be considered an abuse of power. Instead, I would like to clarify a few facts.

They are required to submit incident reports complete with the names of all persons present, whether they are involved or not. 10.

The church has been replaced by the state a redemptive agency in many situa10ns. We who call ourselves Chris­ tians must not neglect our places of responsibility. 12 Frequent meetings do occur between students and "univer­ sity rule makers." Members of the SGA Rules Committee and Student Senate meet with members of Faculty Senate and other college admin­ istrators on a regular basis to discuss policy. Mr. Jarrett quotes himself from an earlier article: "No one values the opinions or judgements (sic) of others unless the 'others' are experts in their field." He then states that he is not a law expert, but he knows some people who are. So do I. I alsc know a surgeon, a nuclear physicist, and a dentist. I do not expect anyone to value my opinion in the areas of physics, medicine, or teeth. However, my credentials as a Stu- escapist mentality. The historian, Otto Scott has said it well, "The Christian who turns away from the world is like the servant who buried his talent, and who had it taken away by an angry master. A society that suffers its worst elements to rule will be worsened. The United States today is such a society and will continue to sink unless it returns to the Christian principles that once made it great." because it is dirty, then my question is: What is clean? Is the church clean? Many who say these are the "end times" or "the last generation" have the attitude of "why polish brass on a sinking ship?" The "sinking ship" being the world civilization. My question to them is, is it "the end" because it is the end? I think the real reason is they are tired of the race and they don't want to deal with the com­ plex issues of our day. They talk to themselves in their own language and claim they are misunderstood. If When a Christian tells me he doesn't want to be involved in nolitics Christians live decadent, hypocritical lives, they in effect create a spiritual J philosophical vacuum. Marxism aid other empty philosophies rush in to fill that vacuum. We have an election year coming up. We also stand at the cross-roads of American history. I will not tell you who to vote for yet, but I will tell you what Edmund Burke said: "The fate of good men who refuse to become involved in politics is to be ruled by evil men." 4.P.P.§.

THER BRIGHT COLORS A Spectacular Kaleidoscope in the Musical Spectrum In general, at ASU the RAs put up with more abuse than anyone should have to, and for very little pay or recognition. I challenge Mr. Jarrett to walk in his RA's shoes for a week before passing judgement. I also encourage him to attend an SGA meeting and to talk with a member of Student Judiciary. And if he does not like a rule, policy or procedure, perhaps he will introduce a bill to SGA or compose a proposal and petition for something better, or quit complaining.

During informal discussion, Cancommended Committee iell Chairperson Gary Greene on his work n Off-Campus Affairs. "1 would just like to recognize Gary Greene as well as Cary Anne and Adelaide for their work in trying o reach off-campus students," Can­ ned said. 'Despite what the editorial in the paper said, I feel that Gary is doing a jgreat job," he added. ! Cannell's statement aroused ap­ plause and several comments from Greene and other Off-Campus Af­ fairs Committee members. "As far as the editiorial is concern»d, I'd just like to say that there is on­ ly one on-camous senator on my com- mutee: L.sa Strickland," Greene said. Also, two newsletters were already sent, and another will be sent in November," he added. Other committee members expressed their views. 'As far as the editorial is concerned, I'd just like to say that there is only one on-campus senator on my committee: Lisa Strickland." Committee Chairperson Gary Greene Ve d one radio talk show on «, WASU where off-campus students could call in with problems and con­ cerns," Off-Campus Senator Scott Post said. Our committee members have been going around interviewing students who live off-campus to find out their problems," he added. We have a booth set up every Tuesday from 11 a.m.-12 noon in the Student Union until the end of November to help answer the ques­ tions of off-campus students," OffCampus Senator Len Capps said. Greene said bulletin boards for offcampus residents were being placed at various apartment buildings around Boone. "We have purchased 14 bulletin boards and nine have been put up so far," he said. SGA Vice President Adelaide Beeker announced that there are four off-campus and five on-campus Senate seats open in Senate. Anyone interested should go by room 23-A of Workman Hall and pick up a petition. Beeker also told Senators that in the next Senate meeting a fee forum for the discussion of the proposed budget increases for 1988-89 will take Academic policy US not being utilized By SHELLY KAEHR Ann.l.chian Staff Writer ASU's new Academic Integrity Policy has not been utilized by faculty manv yho have expressed mixed feelings about the code. "No one has contacted me about any aspect of the referral process " \ssociate Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Barbara Daye said. Public Defender Mark Skidmore said yesterday their office has not received any cheating cases since the enactment of the new code on August 17, 1987. "All cases that go to the new board will come to me and the Chief Justice as well," Skidmore said. Board members include two Student Court Justices and eight faculty nembers (five faculty which actually try the case) who are chosen by the Facul­ ty Senate Committee on Committees. Associate professor of English Dr. Dan Hurley was appointed to the Board as Chairperson earlier this week. "I was asked and could not think of a good reason not to accept," Hurley Said. "I did not seek the position." Hurley said the Board has only been formed about three weeks. The new academic integrity code requires faculty to report students who plead not guilty of dishonesty or who have previous records of academic lishonesty to the Academic Integrity Board if suspected of cheating. Some faculty support the new policy. "I believe in whatever the administration recommends," Professor of comnunication arts Dr. Linda Weldon said. "I don't think each individual professor is a god answerable only to timself," Hurley said. Other professors have negative reactions to the new code. , "This is a violation of my freedom," Associate professor of English Dr. Melissa Barth said. "The university doesn't trust the faculty to be ehtical. It's list one more example of the university taking away the power of the educator o do his or her job." "The new system may encourage professors to ignore plagiarism," Associate •rofessor of English Dr. Ronald Coulthard said. Foundation revises investment strategy By MARGARET MUGNIER Appalachian Staff Writer The ASU Foundation has changed !s investment policy which no longer 'eludes the statement about the ullivan Principles. Vice Chancellor for Development Bob Snead ^ert Snead said ASU Foundation is organization that controls the infient of ASU's donated money. eir Purpose is to take contributions alumni and friends and invest J* to make money. e Foundation was started in 1970 . Herbert Wey with just a few Th"1^ dollars, he money managers make the . SIOns on what to invest in," ASU «»°r John Thomas said. "The at e ,, 'on tells what mix they would > 'argest single use last year was arships," Snead said. Scholar­ ship usages totalled $700,000. Other projects the money supports are: The Appalachian House in Washington D.C., The Loft in New York City and H'Appy's. "We are very proud of what the Foundation has done for ASU," Thomas said. The Investment Advisory Commit­ tee of the ASU Foundation sets the investment policy. The past policy has been for the money managers to discontinue purchasing stock from companies doing business in South Africa if they do not use the Sullivan Principles. In May, Reverend Sullivan, author of these principles denounced them. "The Sullivan Principles are just a smoke screen," professor of history Dr. James Winders said. "We felt that a policy built on policies that are no longer effective is not a policy," Snead said. "The Sullivan Principles are just a smoke screen." Professor, History Dr. James Winder The Foundation now has holdings in two companies with business in South Africa. They are: Air Express which is not a signer of the Sullivan Principles and Goodyear Tires and Rubber who meets the basic re­ quirements, but has a low rating. The holdings' total cost was $145,236 when purchased. "I'd like to see them (the Founda­ tion) have a consistently socially responsible investment policy always," Winders said. The ASU Foundation is the only organization that invests money for \SU. place. A $285 increase has been proposed and several members of the ad­ ministration will be present to address the Senate. Senate Bill 021-007 was presented by Terry Blackmon and Paula Nance. The Administration requested the Student Senate's approval of the bill which stated that phones would be placed in various buildings around campus. "It will be used for Mountaineer Escort, convenience, and security in the buildings," Nance said. Academic Affairs Committee member Jerry Myers introduced Senate Bill 021-008 which would add an extra day of drop/add before classes beginning in the fall of 1988. Myers said that since the calendar for the spring semester had already been printed, the bill would have to go into effect next fall. "Faculty Senate has passed a similar resolution," Faculty Senate Chairoerson Theresa Earlv said consists of three officers: Chairper­ son, Vice Chairperson, and Secretary. "Our Senate is strictly a recommending body to the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs," Early said. "We meet once a month for about three hours," she added. Senate Bill 021-005 was introduced by Amy Andrews and Mike Ruther­ ford. The bill suggested that Teacher of the Year Awards be moved to a more visible location. The awards are presently located in the basement of the library. The new location for the awards has not been determined. "We're not sure where they will go but we're working with the library on it," Rutherford said. Andrews and Rusty Parker were chosen as SGA Senate Stars of the Week because of their involvement with Homecoming '87. Early addressed the Senate on the functions of Faculty Senate. "Faculty Senate is made up of 27 faculty members who are elected by the faculty," Early said. "We have a booth set up every Tuesday from 11 a.m.-12 noon in the Student Union until the end of November to help answer the questions of off-campus students." Off-Campus Senator Len Capps Early said each member serves a term of three years and can serve no more than two consecutive terms. Early also said the Faculty Senate NewsWorld Report honors ASU & ASU has received national attention once again. The October 26 issue of U.S. News & World Report lists ASU in its "America's Best Colleges" feature. The magazine listed the average Scholastic Aptitude Test score of Ap­ palachian's 1986-87 freshman class and the percentage of applicants who were accepted for admission. U.S. News said ASU was "noteworthy" in a ranking of com­ prehensive institutions in Southern and border states. the Thomas said the 1987-88 freshman class S/4 T average, 933, exceeds the 1986-87 average of 904 quoted in the magazine. M——— Appalachian also made the last U.S. News listing in 1985. In 1986 Money magazine listed the university as one of the top 10 "public colleges with an ivy twist." tion, and we continue to exert the ef­ fort it takes to maintain this standing." Thomas said the 1987-88 freshman class SAT average, 933, exceeds the 1986-87 average of 904 quoted in the magazine. The percentage of students entering from the top 20 percent of their high school classes has also increased, from 36 percent in 1986 to 44 percent in 1987. "We're obviously pleased to see we've sustained our place and the na­ tional recognition we earned in the 1985 U.S. News and World Report," ASU Chancellor John Thomas said. "This shows we're on track in our ef­ forts to maintain this quality institu­ Coffey Hall undergoes renovation By J SHAVER Appalachian Staff Writer Plans are being made to renovate the plumbing in Coffey Hall. "Instead of water, half the time we get ice tea," a Coffey resident said. "The water's kinda rusty, but it gets better after you run it for a little while; it's really not that big a pro­ blem." The original plans were to remove the kitchens from the rooms because of the cost "Everyone was kinda upset that they would take our kitchens out, so we started seeing what we could do," the resident said. RSA representatives held several meetings with residence life authorities, resulting in the decision to keep the kitchens. ."The pipes are worn out, and we need to get to them just as quick as we can so we can have clean flowing water," Director of Residence Life Bob Dunnigan said. "We're excited about it." "It's a complete replacement of the water lines, which are the original water lines in a thirty year old building; they had deteriorated," Director of Auxiliary Services Lynda Slate said. Slate said the project is still in the early planning stages and financial figures are not yet available.

"I think every bodv seems really happy about it," another Coffey resident said. Wellness Center plans move to Health Center By SHELLEY KAEHR Appalachian Staff Writer The Wellness Center which has been located on the first floor of Workman Hall since November 1985 is now being moved to the ASU Infir­ mary. Director of the Student Wellness Center Susan Stamper said the pro­ gram has grown to the point where there are now eight people in two of­ fices. "Workman was always looked at as a temporary placement," Stamper said. "The full intention of the Wellness Center is to assist people with health problems, so it's only logical that is should be in the area of health ser­ vices," Director of Student Develop­ ment Lee McCaskey said. Administrators are unsure of the exact date of the move. "They haven't even started the renovation yet," Workman Hall Of­ fice Manager Evelyn D'Aurora said. The exact cost of the move and renovation is unknown. "The renovation will cost approx­ imately $75,000 because the space in the Student Health Center was never finished," Stamper said. "The $75,000 includes the office equipment," she added. "The space will be used to help ac­ commodate organizations within the Student Development Center," Mc­ Caskey said. Susan Stamper of the ASU Wellness Center Stamper said although no new staff positions are expected to open up after the move, as the program con­ tinues to grow, a larger staff will be required. The Wellness Center offers weight measurement programs and stop smoking programs designed to help individuals with these problems. A group of students known as the S.W.A.T. team has recently been trained to present health programs to students in residence halls. The programs include: sexpecta- Appalochion rnovo oy , uons, drugs and alcohol, exercise nutrition, spiritual ' ! ' nd risl management of cancer and hear disease. Stamper said she is anxious t< See MOVE Page 4 �THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1987 From the SGA President Your great ideas help SGA work for yj Cary Anne Won So here I sit, not knowing what to write. Do any of you realize how hard it is to be a columnist? It's a profession I'd always considered until now. How do these people in the "real" world come up with ideas to write about day after day? This column is especially a prob­ lem. You see, I don't want to write sweet little gung-ho SGA articles every week. But then again, I am the president. Isn't that what I'm sup­ posed to write? I mean, a sports story would be totally out of place. Well, this is my column and thanks to the first amendment, I'll write as I please. So there. You know what? I just got this brilliant idea. (They do hit every now and then.) What if you, the reader, were to let me know what you'd like to read? Maybe there's something about SGA you're just not clear on. it will, right?), let me just mention what we've been up to recently. The new committee in Senate this year is Off-Campus Student Affairs. This committee deals with the needs of...(guess who?) off-campus students! They have a booth in the Student Union every Tuesday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. designed specifically to answer any questions an off-campus student might have. Suppose you have problems with your landlord, or maybe you're not sure about what your rights are as a student living off campus. Of course, the booth is aimed at off-campus students, but that doesn't mean other people can't stop to chat as well, or that questions should be limited to those of an off-campus nature. Why not think of some off-the-wall ques­ tion to bug them with? Off-Campus Affairs has also been at work on a bill to offer an Maybe you wonder what our posi­ "outstanding renter award."

The idea is that if outstand­ ing renters are recognized, they will work even harder to please the' students who are responsible for this recognition. Students will benefit because the reward will show them who is good to rent from and who is not. Apartment owners will un­ doubtedly benefit by the added free publicity the award will generate. Makes sense, huh? Okay, now how many of you have complained about food on campus before? Let me put it another way: is there anyone who hasn't complained? As we sifted through the ancient files of SGA, we discovered that just about every year a survey on food services has been conducted, but that very few, if any, of these surveys have been acted upon. In fact, although anywhere from 600 to 1,000 surveys were sent out, so few were returned that it was impossible to draw any definite conclusions. instructions to distribute and return them. Each Senator was given a specific number, and lest any consider not having members of their consti­ tuency fill them out, we brought in a Contra firing squad to deal with the stragglers. This is not a simple "check ves or no" piece of paper, but it's not a major exam, eitner. First you rate the quality, cost, variety, and service of all campus eateries on a scale of one to five.

It's hard to winterize a skirt Ghostly tales run rampant throughout the mountains of Appalachia. But, to Arlia Prasnell they are more than just tales; they are factual accounts of his experiences with "the other side." Prasnell had the spine tingling experience of a ghost poltergeisting his mountain shack, keeping him away for three days. Prasnell, who lives in the foothills of Beech Mountain, first spotted the ghost of little Darcie Love two years ago. Darcie appeared in the shack he still lives in today, on a pleasant summer evening about 9 p.m. He was camping out in his unfinished shack when he heard a noise like a boot hit­ ting the wall. He looked over to check out the sound when he saw "a little bitty girl, just about so high. She wasn't quite big enough to talk hardly," Prasnell said. Darcie was standing in the doorway of the shack gliding toward him, with a grin on her face. "I'm getting the heck out of here," thought Prasnell. He had laid down fulled clothed, except for his shoes. So he made a grab for his shoes and stuffed one on his foot and one under his arm. Then, ran for his life. Three days elapsed, when Prasnell started thinking, "It probably ain't nothing. I just thought I'd seen something. Believe I'll go back and see if it is something," he said. Prasnell decided to spend that night in the shack except this time he would be ready for the ghost. He laid down and the ghost's "nonsense" started once again. "It came over toward the couch where I was to mash me up. (It was) like a big heavy dog would jump on the couch," said Prasnell. When the ghost moved by TIPS on Restaurant By GEORGE L.

The high country is blessed with a multitude of eateries Career Day for communicationsfield ( C P S ) — Women i n the campus (CPS)-Women students reportedly are a lot more interested in thp ramm.c condom craze than men, various sources say. The University of Nebraska at Omaha's health center, for example, has sold only 12 condoms since August, and all have been to women, nurse Supervisor Ruth Hanon said. About 65 percent of all the condoms bought are purchased by women, Margaret Whited Scarborough added, of Denver's Westvend Corp., which makes condom vending machines. When it comes to free condoms, however, the genders no longer discriminate. The University of Minnesota gave away an estimated 3,000 free condoms at orientation in September, though freshman Eugene Mayer said as many as half the rubbers given away at his session were taken by women, too. That shocked me, Mayer said. "1 thought it was just something for men." At the University of British Columbia, "gladiators" threw an estimated 10,000 condoms from a truck outfitted to look like the Trojan Horse to campus passersby, who reportedly left none laying around. Otherwise, however, shyness still seems to keep many students from taking advantage of campus condom machines or services. Nebraska s Hanon "really didn't expect anyone to come in and ask for them" because it meant standing in a waiting room, and telling the receptionist what was wanted. Women, she said, "usually take the responsibility for sexual activitv.

There is no actual screening process involv­ ed in applying for a position with the Oasis program. Instead, screening takes place over a 25-hour training period.

U:~L whether it's birth control or keeping themselves safe. Women take AIDS mor seriously than men." Fifty-five percent of the people who use the University of Florida's Protec ti°n Connection—which delivers condoms to buyers' doors in plain browi bags—are women, Scott Bluestein reported, a partner in the business. Still another Protection Connection, offering a similar service, has franchise on 10 campuses in Virginia, Texas and California. The Mercury Protection Service, founded by University of New Mexice students, also delivers, though only on weekends. Protek at the University of California at Davis delivers pamphlets about sex ually communicable diseases along with condoms and contraceptive sponges and has spawned franchises as far away as Purdue and Penn State.' Such services were frowned on just a short time ago. In 1985, Harvard kicked a condom-delivery service called Spermbusters ofl campus because, officials said, it was inappropriate. The private business, owned by two students, quickly died. In 1986, University of Texas administrators similarly kept a student-owned service off the Austin campus. It's probably too early to say how long the current crop of condom deliverers and vending machines will last, sponsors said, but they remain hopeful. "The more (condoms are) available," U. New Mexico student Steve Gray noted, "the more careful people will be. If there's anonymity, people will buy them." LIFESAVERS By MARY K.

Later, he got th window in and that was the last c "little Darcie." He said of the ghosi "You'uns can see them like they wa a real person." The story behind the ghost begin back in the hills with a bac woodsman, Miles Love. Love go drunk one night and started shootin a rifle through his house. He hit am fatally wounded his young daughter Darcie. After Love's death, his widos married a neighbor. They shared th Love house for many years. Eventual ly, they moved closer to the main roai and tore down the Love house t< build barns and other out buildings Prasnell asked the family if he couli have some planks to use in thi building of his shack. Later, he fount out the planks he was given were par of the Love house. He felt that Darcii was able to bridge the gap between hi: shack and her murder site becausi I»CJR WCIC DUIII of the matens they were built or me same material. Condoms sought by women more than men Excellent cajnn style meals, guaranteed ranging from rustic to formal. This weekend I had the opportunity to eat at one of Banner Elk's finest restaurants, The Louisiana Purchase. The Purchase is not a formal dining setting but it allows for all occasions. Coat and tie alongside casual wear is a common scene. This creates a warm setting that's inviting to everyone. Ten years ago people might not have known what jumbolaya or stoufee were. Most people have an idea at least of what Creole is, but blackened red fish? All of these are synonymous with cajun cooking which primarily comes from Loui­ siana. The Louisiana Purchase is a cajun style restaurant offering a wonderful selection Louisiana dishes. Appetizers like soft shell crab and scallop bisque set the mood for an entree of freshly steamed crawfish or jumbolaya with shrimp, chicken, oysters and sausage. Salads and deserts, like pecan pum­ pkin pie are made fresh daily. Banner Elk doesn't sell beer but they do allow wine sales and the Puchase takes pride in offering one of the best wine selections in the area. Prasnell's head he threw the covers up and hung on as the spirit tried to pull them off. Then, it jumped down and scampered away. A few days went by, and Prasnell tried to put the incident out of mind. While he was putting the finishing touches on his shack Darcie struck again. Prasnell was putting in the window of his shack when he felt a tapping on his back. He turned around but saw no one. When he reached down to get the window he noticed it was no longer there. Prasnell looked all around his shack but could not locate it. He asked a neighbor to help him search and sure enough the window was in the exact spot he left it. Prasnell then picked up the window to place it. When he reached for hammer and nails the window disappeared again.

Actually, they are much safer than driving a car when done properly. Most accidents you hear of are not "acts of God," but rather poor judgement, human error, or lack of preparation. More and more people are taking part in outdoor programs. However, most don't necessarily take proper precautions. Some guidelines you might want to take into consideration are: 1. Do some research and learn about the area you're going to It is a good idea to study a map of the area you're planning to explore. Find out if there are any resources in the area (i.e. rangers or medical help). Also check to see if there are any inherent risks in the area (i.e. rivers, caves, or mountains). Finally, you need to check to see if the land is public or private and if permission or a permit is needed. JASON MOVES TO BOONE?: Not exactly, but he will be creeping around the Jones House through Saturday, October 31. Don't wait un­ til "Friday 13" to check out the haunts and horrors that abound there nightly from 7 p.m.-10 p.m. Come visit Jason and the gang at "A Creep Through the Jones House." It's located on the corner of King Street and Grand Boulevard next to Daniel Boone Condominiums Happy Hauntings! 2. Know who you're going with You should always travel in safe numbers. A general rule is at least three persons to a group. Learn the skill level of the group members and if they have any medical problems. Also, if there is a guide for the group, you should know whether he/she is reputable and if he/she knows the area. When considering what equi] ment to take, bring appropria gear. Make sure you know ho to use all the equipment befo: an emergency should occu Also plan ahead in case tl equipment should break; mal sure you know how to fix it. A far as clothing goes, make sui your clothes are adequate ft changes in weather. Consider what you wear will still be wan if it gets wet. Wool will keep yo warmer than cotton. If it is gt ing to be cold make sure yo have a hat. One of the best rul< of thumb is to bring plenty c extra clothes. The supplies yo should consider are food, watei and a first-aid kit. You shoul always take along food high i carbohydrates that provid quick calories such as raisin: fruit, dried fruit, and food hig in slow burning calories such a those high in fats, sunflowe seeds, nuts, and cheese. Yoi need to find out ahead of tim whether there is water availabl and if it needs to be treated Always take a first-aid kit witl you because you might b several miles from medical help Make sure you know how t( deal with the different types o injuries that might occur. 5. Don't get in over your head You should always pick a trij which is suitable to your ski! level. There are several organiza tions around campus that car offer training (i.e. Outdoor Pro­ grams and the Department ol Health Education and Leisure Studies—HEPELS). Also make sure the trip length meets with your physical condition. 6.

As they went along, Andalar exlained all he knew about the 'reator. His parents believed the reator made all of them and they lught Andalar to believe the same ling. But what Andalar talked about lost was a place called Eden. In this lace there was a beautiful garden ith real sunlight, not the artificial nd found in all of the domed cities, lis garden was the only place on irth that the Creator had kept from ing destroyed during the Great ilacost, and it was to be Andalar's d Tillaurn's destination. There they >uld make their dream of living a althy, sun-filled life come true. Slowly, ever so slowly, the months PPed into years and, as time crept , Tillaurn began to be discouraged, was not that she was unhappy with idalar, but she was tired of search-. for Eden. She began to have ious doubts. ^ IB&Cfe Early one morning as Tillaurn was preparing breakfast, she stopped her work and said, "Andalar, 1 am tired of looking for Eden. I wonder if we will ever find it." She threw herself on the ground and buried her face bet­ ween her knees. The man looked at her with a sad expression on his strong, gentle face. "Do not be discouraged, please," he spoke to her beseachingly. "Keep believing, Tillaurn. Have faith. It is the only way. r know it has been a very long time, but the Creator shows Eden to me in my dreams. It is a very real place." Andalar raised his face to peer into the horizon. Suddenly, as if the Creator had finally decided this young man was worthy, a brilliant ray of shining light shone far off into the distance. "Look!" Andalar demanded very excitedly. Tillaurn obeyed the com­ mand and what she saw was a won­ drous sight. Streaming down from the bright blue sky was golden sunlight. True, it was far in the distance, but very real nonetheless. The exuberant couple embraced each other, gathered up their possessions and started on the last stage of their long journey with anticipation. * * » * * breeze. Andalar and Tillaurn felt as if they were in heaven as their eyes took in the magnificent beauty of the garden. The most beautiful tree, however, was in the very center of the lovely garden. It was an apple tree with delicious looking fruit growing on it. Tillaurn reached to pick one, but An­ dalar stopped her. The next morning was a glorious one. At the crest of a small rise, An­ dalar and Tillaurn stood staring in wonderous joy at the beautiful, sunfilled garden valley below. Thenhearts uplifted at the feel of true sun­ shine warming their cold skins. Their "Don't ever eat from this tree. Do eyes had never beheld a sight as lovely you understand?"

There were brightly with talk of laws they had to obey. colored flowers and tall shady trees She thought all of that was behind her that swayed gently in the warm when she left the Dome City. However, she loved Andalar, and she trusted and believed in his Creator. "I do not understand, but if you say it is so, I will obey," Tillaurn solemnly promised. She wrapped her arms around Andalar's waist and together they stood sheltered in love and happiness, for all their dreams were finally reality. They had com­ pleted their destiny and were now ready to start the new truly human race. your total judgement of situa­ tions, and your ability to clearly respond to certain occurrences. There is usually enough adrenaline and exhilaration from your trip. 7. Check with resource centers for additional information There are several resource centers around campus where additional information can be obtained. These include ASU's Outdoor Programs, ASU's Leisure Studies department, or Appalachian Mountain Sports. As they stood there, lost in wonder­ ful thought, neither one of them noticed the wickedly colored snake that was coiled around the limb of the forbidden tree. The serpent gazed at them with a look of speculation in its devilish eyes. He too was ready for the new truly human race. Exploring the outdoors can be a lot of fun, however, the proper precau­ tions need to be taken. Following a few simple guidelines will help to make your trip more pleasant and safe.

Greer Arena Theatre at 8 p.m. A NIGHT OF ONE ACTS will showcase two one-act plays directed by ASU students enrolled in an advanced directing class. Suppressed Desires, by Susan Glaspell, is directed by Julie Whichard, who is assisted by Paula Holder. Whichard is an ASU senior majoring in theatre. Suppressed Desires is a satire on Freudian psychology. The story is about a young woman, Henrietta Brewster, who is an adamant disciple of psychoanalysis. Henrietta, played by Debra Cunningham, a freshman Anthropology major, is so obsessed with dream analysis, that she wakes her husband Stephen in the middle of the night so that she can interpret his dreams. Stephen, played by Cliff Retallick, a senior political science major, is fed up with Henrietta's perpetual harass­ ment and is ready for a divorce. Henrietta also badgers and overanalyzes her sister Mabel who is por­ trayed by Katie Goldthorpe, a sophomore special education major. All of this insanity leads the trio to a psychologist, who gives Henrietta some surprising news. The Love Course, by A.R. Gurney, is directed by Kim Coleman, a senior majoring in theatre. She is assisted bv Beth Folic. The play takes place in a college classroom in which the topic is "the Y)J ; TWO ONES: One, will be presented in Arena Theatre Octol Suppressed Desires, Glaspell, stars Debo ningham as Henriet ster, and Cliff, Ret Stephen Brewstg, features Katie Goldf Mabel.

The course is taught by two professors of the English Department; Professor Burgess, a conservative level-headed young man, and Miss Carroway,a hopelessly romantic female colleague. Gradually throughout the semester Carroway has fallen in love with Burgess through books and the ex­ perience of the classroom. Burgess being oblivious to her affections' simply regards her as an academic spinster. Carroway, who is preparing to eave the university for another teaching position, is determined in her f « last class of the year to bring the course and their relationship to climactic conclusion. Caught in the middle of this final confrontation are a young co-ed named Sally and her boyfriend Mike. By trying to help the two pro­ fessors, Sally and Mike get caught in the crossfire, and are forced to re­ examine their own relationship.

The Magic Flute, to be performed by the ASU School of Music and Opera Workshop October 28-31, has enchanted audiences with its beautiful music and mystical devices since its first performance in 1791. It was writ­ ten by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart for the folk theatre in Vienna and explores the spiritual elements of Freemasonry, a brotherhood of which he was a part. With the combined talents of ASU voice faculty members, two New York performers, and a wonderful supporting cast, the opera will come to life once again. "This is the first work from thfe classical standard repertory that the ASU Opera Workshop has under­ taken," said Sharon Papian, director of The Magic Flute. Papian was previously director of Street Scene and musical director of the Mikado. She is a former member of the New York City.

AbU voice faculty members Julia ^go as Pamina and John Muriello as Papageno are featured. Pedigo, a soprano, received her D.M.A. from the University of Michigan. Muriello, aritone, has performed opera in an Illinois dinner theatre and with the Ohio Light Opera. He received a doc­ torate from the University of Michigan. New York tenor James Hay, a resi­ dent artist with the Tri-Cities Opera tor two years, sings the role of l amino. He has appeared with the Lake George Opera, Pennsylvania Opera FestivaJ, and Radio City Music all Christmas Show. Soprano Cori Ellison, also from New York, sings the role of the Queen of the Night, ahe has performed with organizations such as the Virginia Opera, Lake George Opera, Des Moines Metro Opera, and New York Vocal Arts Ensemble. The musical arrangements by Mozart will be conducted by Dr. William Gora and performed by an orchestra consisting of ASU music faculty as principle players and ASU students. The choral ensemble, com­ posed of students and community members, will be directed by ASU senior James Baumgardner, who also sings the roles of the first priest and man in armor. Shirley Irek, pianist with the orchestra, is a member of the Broyhill Chamber Ensemble and has been a coach musical director. The lively movement and dance sec­ tions were choreographed by ASU faculty instructor Marianne Adams, co-director of Danceworks Theatre and the Appalachian Dance Ensem­ ble. Adams also choreographed for Street Scene and the Mikado. The cast is also composed of many talented ASU students. Senior Brett Pryor as Sarastro, baritone Jeff Hatley as the High Priest, and voice major Wendy Jones as Papagena, have appeared most recently in the production of the Mikado. LeesMcRae music faculty member Jim laiuuy memoer Taylor, an ASU Theatre graduate and "Horn in the West" performer, sings the role of Monostatos. Other ASU performers include Roberta Ferguson, Susan Eastwood, and Lisa Reed who sing the trio of the three ladies. The role of the three spirits is sung by Mary Dare Edwards, Bernadette Draper, and Amantha Barbee. Also, Chris Jones, Mike Whitaker, and Kevin Strother sing the part of the slaves. "The opera presents a world of fantasy in which anything can happen and nothing is an accident," said Papian. "It encourages us to suspend our disbelief and to allow our imaginations to flourish." It will be a delightful evening of simple popular tunes, virtuosic arias, and spoken dialogue. The Magic Flute will be performed October 28-31 at 8 p.m. in Chapell Wilson Auditorium.

Morgan is considered by many to be one of the better athletes in the con­ ference. He is a constant threat, being able to run and pass with equal suc­ cess. "They are a very good option team," Woods said. "In Morgan, . they have a player who can hurt you in many ways." In Roosevelt May, the Bucs have a back who's capable of going the distance every time he touches the football. The 195-pound sophomore has rushed for 485 yards on 112 car­ ries this season. After defeating two of the top teams in the Southern Conference oji consecutive weekends, the defending league champion Appalachian State Mountaineers will journey to Johnson City, Tenh. to take on the Buccaneers of East Tennesse State University in another key showdown. The Mountaineers have put themselves in the driver's seat for this year's title by beating VMI, Furman, and Tennessee-Chattanooga, thus go­ ing 3-0 in the conference and 5-2 overall. The Buccaneers have been on the proverbial roller coaster all season. The Bucs shot out of the gates to a 3-0 start, and a number eight national "Way is one of the best backs in the ranking, then went on a three-game Southern Conference," said ASU losing skid, before defeating The Defensive Back Coach David Bibee.

"They have a balanced offensive team that uses a lot of play action on their passes." The Bucs have a rugged defense that will try to intimidate .you by get­ ting up in your face. Up front Wayne Hall, Henry Pressley, Rob Simpson, Mark Meltzer, and Billy Taylor patrol. The unit is very physical with Hall pro­ bably being the best of the bunch. "Hall is one of the premiere defen­ sive linemen in the league," Woods said. "He plays on the tight end side, where we like to run the ball, so it's going to be a big challenge to our tight ends to get him blocked." Linebackers Albert English and Scott Sutton are as good as any pair in the league. "English is the strong-side linebacker for them," said Woods. "He's too strong to run at, and to fast to run away from. He has great range, and makes plays from sideline to sideline." The secondary is a deep, experienc­ ed group that is led by free safety Thane Gash who is flanked by strong safety Scott Kirby along with corners Rick Harris, and Juan McGarrah. Harris is a great player, having in­ tercepted a pass last year and going over 100 yards with it for a touchdown, but Gash has to be the emotional leader of the entire Buc stop troops. "Gash is the leading tackier on their defense," said Woods. "He is a linebacker on the run, and a centerfielder on the pass." Gash reminds many of App free safety Leonard Lee. He is an accident looking for a place to happen and a bone-crushing hitter. The Bucs have a solid kicking game even though they lost Ail-American punter George Cimadevilla to gradua­ tion. Jason Ramsey handles the punt­ ing duties for the Bucs now and is adequate, kicking for a 35.6 yard average. The kicker is Mike Shoun who is the best kicker in the conference for accuracy. The sophomore has nailed 10 of his 11 attempts this season. The Buc punt tpam has its work cut out for them trying to stop the App Black (punt block team) team. The Apps have blocked punts against the Bucs for two straight seasons, and punt blocking specialist Quincy Bethea and his troops will be trying to bat it back at them once again. The Apps have a lot of respect for the Bucs, so don't expect them to be caught looking ahead to next week's encounter with Marshall. "Coach Ayers and his staff have done a good job in building the pro­ gram," Woods said. "Last year they were the most improved team in the conference. We will have to be at our best to Dcai inem. ucai iu beat them.

"They're for good causes, they're fun, and it gives me a chance to get out there and play some. I'm glad I get to help organizations like the hunger coali­ tion and the United Negro College Fund." Ferguson came to ASU from UNCAsheville and played collegiately at Cumberland (Ky) College. Burleson also played on a National Championship team when his Wolfpack took home the crown in 1974.

The warn has worked for their goal of inning the conference. They feel very good about it." Appalachian Staff Writer The word optimistic best describes the Appalachian State cross country runners as they travel to Davidson for the Southern Conference champion­ ships this Saturday. Both Bob Pollock (men's coach) and John Weaver (lady's coach) feel they should win the meet. "I have never seen a group of guys so excited," Pollock said. "We have run very well up to this point and as far as reaching our peak, I feel we are on the verge of that. Weaver is equally optimistic. "I think we have a good chance to .in the Conference Championship sonal bests at South Carolina on Oc­ tober 17. I also think that Pete and Dean have excellent opportunities to win the individual championship. They both have a realistic shot at it." The men's team has had only three runners ever to make the SC allconference team. The highest in­ dividual finish ever for ASU was fifth in 1985 (Mark Shea) and 1986 (Vandenburg.) "We could equal that this year," Pollock said. Two weeks ago, Ruggles, one of the Lady Apps, top runners was injured. "Beth's injury was not super serious," Weaver said. "It's already started healing. She has been swim­ ming and training for the past week and I think she is in good shape. She trained very hard before the injury and I think all she has to do is get mentally ready for the meet." Weaver knows the Lady Apps have the talent to control their own destiny. But they can't start worrying about the competition. "We have three of the best runners in the con­ ference," Weaver said. HOW THEY STACK UP ASU vs ETSU Continued from Page 10 terception. It really just happened because I was in good position for the intercep­ tions," Lee said. "I love to hit but I'd rather get the interception. An in­ terception puts our offense in a posi­ tion to score while the big hit just gives t.iem another down." With the success former Moun­ taineers have had with NFL scouts, Lee has to be considered a candidate for a spot on someone's roster in 1988. "I try not to think about it but I think that every college player does," Lee said. "I would like to get a shot with someone." Right now Lee is more interested in trying to nail down ASU's second consecutive Southern Conference ti­ tle. "Right now I'm just trying to think about winning the conference cham­ pionship," Lee said. "I think that if we go into the last four games with the same kind of attitude we had against Cbattanooga we can win it. CATEGORY COMMENT ADVANTAGE •«*ln'.Tha.v.c,!hr!eI"?b« ners in the conference (Beth Ruggles, Karen Osada, Vanessa Tysor) and the next four have come a long way and done a super job," Weaver said. Pollock wants his runners to get otf to a good start. That could be the key to the Apps success. "I think its important to get out front early," he said. "I think it has a psychological effect on other teams to with the lineup of Pete Vandenburg!

Quarterback Todd Payton was 5-15 for just 18 yards For the year, Payton is completing 48 percent of his passes. Woods substituted liberally at quorterbock bringing in Tommy laurendine and Bobby Fuller, but Fuller was the only one to put the ball up and he missed both of his attempts. Beaty leads the team with 14 catch­ es. Though primarily a running QB, Morgan can put the ball in the oir. When he does, he averages over 15 yards per completion. WR Cedric Solomon is Morgan's favorite target with 25 receptions and a 17.5 yards per catch average.

The Bucs behind quorterback Jeff Morgan, may be the best option team the Apps will see all year. Running out of the veer, ETSU averages 217.7 rushing yards per game. Roosevelt Way leads the Bucs with 485 yards in seven gomes, but expect to see many Buccaneers get their hands on the ball. ASU's defense may be the best in l-AA footboll. Safety Leonard Lee, with two intercep­ tions and two passes broken up, was named the SC Defensive Player of the Week. The Apps give up just 139.1 yords on the ground ond have defeased the option well this year. There will be a lot of pressure on the ends ond comerbacks to stop the option and tockles Anthony Dowr s and Dennis Sanders must contain Morgan when he wonts to pass. ETSU's defense gives up per game averages of 174.5 yards passing ond 179.2 yards rushing. The Buccaneer linebackers are o heady bunch led by Albert English ond Scott Sutton. Their defensive line is small, averag­ ing only 219 pounds compared with ASU's offensive line that averages 260 pounds.

See WILDERNESS �^^•377 7Xe ~Z THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1987 blaming the Greeks Wilderness 0 Lately there has been much con­ troversy surrounding the Greek system here at ASU. With the two very unfortunate events that occurred over the summer involving two fraternities still fresh on everyone's mind, I would like to express my opinion. First, even though the incidents happened at fraternity functions, this does not mean the fraternities are fully at fault. The incidents could have taken place at a private individual's party or at an apartment party, etc. Just because a fraternity was involved some jump to the conclu­ sion that fraternities and sororities are good just for buying some friends and getting 'drunk and caus­ ing trouble. This causes some per­ sons to become angry and point fingers and call for "Banishment of the evil Greek system." I would like to state that the Greek system is most beneficial to ASU. Greeks just don't party. We perform community service projects such as rest home visits, cleaning Boone's streets, we collect food for the hungry in Watauga County. Also, many ureeks volunteer their time to help mentally retarded per­ sons and donate money to ASU. Along with these local services, fraternities and sororities spend many hours raising money to donate ^Chantles such as St- Jude's ^Wrens' Hosptial, the Ronald McDonald House, cancer research and the list goes on. Greeks also gain valuable experience in leadership positions. Also grades are stressed tremen­ dously School comes first and being a member of a social group helps broaden one's total school experience. . [f a person is "Anti-Greek" that is because the Greek system isn't for everyone. However, as I have tried to state overall, the Greek system is a positive experience. The last point I wish to make involves the issue of parties and the incidents that happened this summer. Granted, mistakes were made. The I.F.C. and Panhellenic Council along with input from all Greeks and the ASU administration came up with some guidelines con­ cerning parties. This is a good idea. Greeks need to show the school and community that they are responsible and can handle social situations in a proper manner. However, the school administra­ tion shouldn't give in to pressure and go on a witch hunt and target certain groups in order to make an example and show the community that they are handling the problem.

They all believe that Swain County deserves a fair and just settlement; they believe that the North Shore area should continue to be managed as it is today; and they believe that the geniune cultural and historic sites in the North Shore area should be preserved and should not be classified as wilderness. I have tried to build on those common conerns. I am proposing that important landmarks in the North Shore 3163 -including trails to the cemeteries, and certain cemeteries, cabins and bridges be exempted from any wilderness management, so that they can be maintained and preserved. And Congressman Clarke and I have pro­ posed specific language to ensure that access to the area continues as it currently is provided! In short, the bill will not < ke way any rights currently enjoyed by any citizen; it will have no negative impact whatsoever on Swain County residents or tourists. As for timing, I believe the wilderness designation should become effective only when Swain County has received the payment it has been promised. This should guarantee that the federal government makes good-its part of the bargain. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park is truly an invaluable natural resource for the state and the nation. It deserves the best protection we can give it. Swain County also deserves fair and equitable treatment from the federal government. Now, with broad support in the House, the Senate, and in the Administration, I think we're close to achieving both goals. I will continue to work with all the involved parties to see that we draw this 40-year-old issue to a suc­ cessful and satisfactory close.

King St., Boone, NC (Downstairs by the barber shop) ON-CAMPUS TRAVEL REPRESENTATIVE OR ORGANIZATION NEEDED to )stens This is highly unjust. If a list of rules and regulations are made they must be applied to everyone equally. Also, there needs to be better lines of communication between the administration and the Greeks. One specific example is that one Greek organization had a party at the first of the year. The organization spoke with the administration and was told to go ahead. The organization followed the guidelines by the book. The organization later was charged with violating the guidelines. How does the administration explain this? This specific organization has been royally screwed! Is this fair? If the Greeks or any other student groups for that matter are expected to follow rules and regulations, the administration must state their standing on the situation and stick with what they say. If we are expected to behave in a responsible manner it is only fair that certain members of the administration do so accordingly. Finally, let's not forget about the incidents of this past summer but let's not dwell on them. Let good come out of the bad and turn the incidents into a learning experience so that nothing like this happens again at any social function Greek and non-Greek alike.

SHAVER By J. SHAVER Appalachian Staff Writer In a lecture Friday, Dr. Tannis MacBeth Williams said that TV's uneven portrayal of sex roles should be corrected by government regulation if necessary. Williams, an associate professor of psychology at the University of British Colum­ bia and coordinator of the Canadian Psychological Association's Section on Women and Psychology, gave a lecture enti­ tled "Perspectives on the Media." The lecture, part of the Special Forum Series, was also sponsored by the Department of Women's Studies. Williams presented statistics that paint a bleak picture of television's portrayal of women's roles. According to a recent study conducted in Canada, 64 percent of all prime time shows feature all or mostly male characters. An even mix of male and female characters was found in 28 percent of the shows and all or mostly female casts were found in only eight percent. Williams explained that the breakdown of authority figures by sex is even more disparate. All or mostly male authority figures were found on 85 percent of shows, 11 percent had an even mix and only three percent had predominately female authority figures. "The fact there are more males than females on TV gives the implicit message that men are more important," Williams said. Williams said TV also tends to show only certain sorts of male-female contacts. "Sex on TV occurs between strangers and acquaintances. Married nennle are basically acquaintances. Married people asexual," she said. Williams said this gives an unrealistic view of sexual interactions between men and women. Regulation of TV's content may be the answer to the problem. "We have school boards that regulate schools and we think that's just fine," she said. They state what the content of the curriculum is. "Since children spend more time on televi­ sion than they do in school I don't think it's unreasonable to have some regulation of the content of television. "I see that as being possibly done at all kind of levels. I see self regulation by the networks as one possibility, but as I said before, it doesn't work, mainly because the private networks' only goal is to make money. "If we want television to have some positive impact on our society, then we're going to have to have some channels which have that as a goal. "I see nothing wrong with a governmentowned network," Williams added. "A net­ work has a mandate to provide the media with culture. "We have regulatory bodies of the govern­ ment that decide what's okay just like a schoolboard. "We don't make people watch those things. I would object if we made people watch them, or if it was all that was available," Williams said.

"Yours is a highly superficial but highly visible analysis that helps those who don't need it and makes it harder for those who need help," Middlebury College President Olin C. Robison wrote the magazine's editors, asking them not to publish their list anymore. Indeed, more than 65 of the presidents who were asked to rank colleges by the magazine tried to stop U.S. News and World Report from releasing the results October 17, but the magazine ignored their pleas. "We use the same categories to rank the schools as the Carnegie Foundation (for the Advancement of Teaching)," U.S. News' Paul Vizza said in defense of the magazine's annual ranking of campuses. U.S. News asks college presidents, "the best informed judges of American education," Vizza claimed, which schools they consider best in various categories. But the presidents say they're fed up with the proliferation of rankings of colleges by sources as diverse as the Dow Jones Company, Spy Magazine, the Yale News and Playboy. Some rate schools according to what parents need to know about campus social life, which are the best "educational bargains" and even which are the best refuges for "dumb rich kids." While no one knows how many such "consumer" rankings there are these days, the college presidents say many of them are useless and can hurt campus efforts to attract and keep students. Even the most reputable ones, claimed St. Michael's College (Vermont) President Paul J. Reiss in one of the protest letters sent to U.S. News, are "inconsistent" and "unscientific." Reiss noted that while 40 percent of the presidents responding to U.S. News listed Stanford University as among the top five "national research universities," 60 percent disagreed. "This is fraudulent," Middlebury's Robison complained "This is an effort to sell magazines." U.S. News' survey judges which schools offer the "best" undergraduate education, quality of teaching, faculty-student ratios, "learning atmosphere," and advises how to pick a college and pay for it. But Money magazine focuses on "Ten Great Tuition Deals" in its ranking. "We looked for the Berkeleys of tomorrow, the up-and-coming schools," explained Money writer John Stickney. Money selected schools with a "strong sense of mission," a heterogenous student body, a strong liberal arts bias, with residential cam­ puses and emphasis on undergraduate education. Among the winners were Cooper Union, the University of California at Irvine, Furman and Southwestern. Presidents said they are especially upset because making or not making such lists can have a big impact on enrollments and fundraising. Middlebury's Robison, whose school was not on the magazine's list of "national liberal arts colleges," admitted getting "the most extraor­ dinary mail" asking why the college hadn't been listed. After Connecticut's Wesleyan University was mentioned by U.S. News and received a high rating on other lists last year, freshman enroll­ ment rose by 35 percent.

Hazing victimizes another EAST LANSING, MICH. (CPS)—A Native American student quit the Michigan State University marching band in protest after three band members pinned her down and shaved her neck and shoulders. Cynthia Maggard, a Navajo In­ dian, said she was the victim of haz­ ing. Maggard said she was pinning up her hair shortly before the September 26 Michigan State-Florida State foot­ ball game when a female band member told her to shave off the hair on her neck and shoulders because it was too dark and too long. "I explained to her that I couldn't have it shaved because of my religious beliefs and heritage," Maggard said. A second woman then pushed Maggard's head forward, and another shaved the back of her neck and shoulders with a disposable razor. Maggard, a trombonist, reported the incident September 29 to band director Dave Catron and quit. According to MSU spokesman Terry Denbow, Maggard has not filed a formal complaint or named her at­ tackers. "School officials are in­ vestigating the incident," he said. "The MSU marching band does not require members to have clean­ shaven necks or shoulders," Denbow said. "And if the university's in­ vestigation substantiates Maggard's allegations, harsh measures will be taken." "Michigan State will not tolerate racist behavior," he said. "We're committed to opening doors, not clos­ ing them." Catron said Maggard's is the first allegation of hazing since he began directing the band in 1970. "We ab­ solutely do not haze. It was an unfor­ tunate incident and I wish it hadn't happened." I QUITTING. >ULD AMERICAN CANCER , SOCIETY' A Positive Pbint About Breast C Now we can see it bek 'oil can feel it.

Appalachian Photo* by Rich Rolrdon and Kolth Jono* areer Corner Muenchow makes impact on lives through special education By MARY K. MILLER Appalachian Staff Writer Tracy Muen­ chow teaches at a typical elementary school in Taylorsville, but neither her students nor her classroom is typical. Muenchow teaches one behaviorally and emotionally handicapped (BEH) student in a of a corner classroom at Taylorsville E l e m e n t a r y School. She normally teaches more than one student. In fact, during her first year of teaching three years ago, a class of 12 BEH students almost I overwhelmed her. Muenchow said "My first year of teaching, I swore I'd never come back." "Having a small number of students, you have the opportunity to get more involved. You have the same student for several years, so you can really make an impact on their lives." The demands and stresses of deal­ ing with a large number of handi­ capped children had her looking for another career in short order. Three years later she continues to teach, mostly because the field is so rewarding and she actually changed her attitude toward teaching. Special education teachers must teach the three Rs as well as appropriate behavior. "I decided to be less adamant about academics and put more emphasis on correcting improper Dehavior," she said. Muenchow received her BS in Special Education from ASU in 1985. The cross categorical degree qualifies graduates to teach mentally handi­ capped, learning disabled and emo­ tionally handicapped children. She chose to work with behaviorally handicapped children in particular because of the opportunity to see children improve. "Mentally handicapped children have a limited ability to learn. But with my students," she said, "there is that possibility." Special education teachers are presently in great demand because of the high turnover in the field. As Muenchow puts it, "It takes an incredible amount of patience to teach in special education. It's a very stressful job." Muenchow, however, enjoys her work tremendously. "Having a small number of students, you have the opportunity to get more involved. You have the same student for several years, so you can really make an impact on their lives," she said. Muenchow believes a certain aptitude is required to teach special education. Along with endless patience, she feels a lot of commit­ ment is a big part of teaching these children.

Shaver By ANDREA ANDERSON Appalachian Staff Writer Principal's actions incite rebellion It seems like everyone I know hated their high school principal, but I have yet to meet anyone who can tell better war stories than the East Burke Class of '83. Burke county is a fairly quiet place. It sits about 45 minutes south of here at the foot of the mountains in the Catawba Valley. My mother's people come from up in the mountains around there and I respect that heritage. But I disagree. Burke County has two high schools. East Burke and another one. My senior year at East Burke, I was basically writing the editorials for the paper. I wasn't on staff mind you, I just went to church with one of the editors who was glad to run one of my letters instead of writing an editorial. I wrote about the stupid new tardy policy and things like that, but mostly I bewailed the draconian policies of our principal. He had this bad habit of doing things like having prayers at assemblies. I criticized this because although he happened to be a fellow Southern Baptist, it just ain't legal to have prayer at school assemblies. And there was the business about the trays in the cafeteria. It seems we had a problem that lots of kids here at ASU still have; people would leave their lunch trays laying on the table. He took time off everyone's mid-morning break for this. I did not and do not have any sympathy for low-Iifes too lazy to bus their own trays, but I HATED losing my break for something I didn't do. Lots of people felt the same way. It was a source of building resentment towards the principal. Late in the year, for reasons which escape me, a rock band played for the whole school one day. I personally didn't care much for the genre of rock they played, but many people felt moved by the spirit to trickle out onto the gym floor a few at a time to dance before the stage. When half the student body was on the floor, the principal got up between numbers and told everyone to sit down. Most of the them went, but they booed him. For some reason this was a surprise to him and he elected to terminate the concert, telling us to report to class. To my lasting shame I was the only person in the senior class to get up. I went to class, alone and humiliated. Five minutes later, a third of the student body was sitting on the floor outside the gym and behind the office in open rebellion. It lasted two or three hours and it was one of the greatest things I've ever seen. We were the opening story on the WBTV news that night. I wrote some very harsh editorials on the subject the rest of the year, and for some reason my peers never abused me for my butt-kissing behavior. I actually seemed to gain popularity for my editorials. I still sort of think the guy deserved it. But it didn't do a ding-dang bit of good. We were reviled in all the local papers. Lots of people were actually arrested and didn't get to graduate. I never told anyone this, but several teachers came to me secretly at the end ot the year to advise me to send copies of my editorials to the local paper. That way, the public would finally hear what really happened. But, I decided to let it drop out of a suspicion that it wouldn't do a bit more good than anything 6 else had. ' I did find one thing satisfying though; that day, over 500 trays were left sit- tinrr in tlln The ASU School of Music and Opera Workshop will present Mozart's "The Magic Flute" in Chapell Wilson Auditorium on Oc­ tober 28, 29, 30, and 31. A collaboration of many talents, the opera features ASU voice faculty members Julia Pedigo as Pamina and John Muriello as Papageno. New York singers James Hay and Cori Ellison perform the roles of Tamino and the Queen of the Night. Lees-McRae music faculty member Jim Taylor will play the part of Monostatos. ASU senior Brett Pryor, previously featured in productions such as the "Mikado" and "An­ tigone," will play the part of Sarastro. "The Magic Flute" is the last opera written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart for the folk theatre in Vienna. It explores mystical elements taken from Freemasonry, a brotherhood of which Mozart was a part. It is noted for its use of magical and comical devices. The opera opens with a quest for a beautiful young woman who has been abducted. Two parallel love stories develop and take many turns as a magic flute and a magic set of bells work to solve all difficulties. The fairy tale opera is filled with symbolic meanings, comic devices, villains, and magical creatures. It will be a delightful evening of simple popular tunes, virtuosic arias, and spoken dialogue. Tickets will be sold at Chapell Wilson and the Broyhill Music Center at $5 for general admission, and $2.50 for students, senior citizens, and children.

Though new to ASU this semester over 70 applications have been com­ pleted, 37 students trained, most of whom are already placed and working in agencies that serve Watauga's lowincome population. Response from ASU students has been good, but there are still some local agencies in need of volunteer helpThe SS-LP currently has students working in the following positions: friend to a foster child, social support for people with substance abuse pro­ blems, tutors, interviewers and distributers of food, crisis-line counselors, teachers of basic living skills to people with chronic mental illness, friendly visitors to the homebound elderly and friends to pregnant teenagers. Volunteers are welcome at all par­ ticipating agencies (now totaling 13) but there are a few positions for which volunteers are particularly needed. The Self-Help Housing Project of North West Housing Authority, pro­ vides low-income people who work full time, with the land, materials and technical assistance to build their own homes, for reduced rates. Groups of student volunteers are needed to help at the construction sites. While students with skills and experience in this area are urged to participate, ANY student, regardless of previous carpentry experience is welcome, as STUDENT SERVICELEARNING PROJECT HELPING HANDS" training will be provided. This work will be scheduled for Saturdays dur­ ing November. This agency is also in need of volunteers to help with weatherization of homes. The Project on Aging is Iif need of students to deliver meals-on-wheels to their homebound elderly clients. This assignment requires at least one day per week from 11:00-12:30 and a car. Gas mileage will be provided. The Department of Social Services is gearing up for the holiday season and would like student volunteers to help with distribution of food, toys, etc. to low-income families with children in the area. To participate in any of these, or other volunteer activities please con­ tact the Student Service-Learning Project, 6F Basement of Chapell Wilson Hall or call us at 262-2764. Our next volunteer training session will be held on Thursday October 29 from 2 p.m.-6 p.m. and applications are still being accepted. Agencies currently using SS-LP volunteers report nothing but good news. The students have been a great help, are responsible, caring, en­ thusiastic and are making a positive difference in the lives of area lowincome residents. Participating students have reported they are gain­ ing as much as they are giving and strongly recommend volunteer work to other students. As the project name implies, our goal is not just service, but also learn­ ing. Students involved in this project have many opportunities from which to learn; through our training, the agency task specific training, and periodic work-shops. The most to be learned comes from the actual sharing of yourself with another human being and by par­ ticipating in their lives. By way of this column, we will be sharing some of these personal experiences with the student body. The next column will discuss volunteerism from a different perspective, that of a corporate employer who views community in­ volvement and volunteerism as a step in the right direction for those con­ sidering administrative and or business careers. The corporate employer feels that volunteerism helps make a well rounded person who will in turn make the best employee, regardless of the setting. Volunteering for these programs is not just for those planning on careers in human service but for everyone. 5 BACCN1S ASU BACCHUS Supports National Alcohol Awareness Week Schedule of Events: Monday, October 26 Information Fair — Student Onion Pub, 10:00 am - 2:00 pa Mocktails served: Strawberry Dalqulrles BACCHUS Night at Pepper's — Free non-alcoholic beverages with coupon Tuesday, October 27 'Take a Knock Out of Drunk Driving" — Sanford Mall, 10:00 No Mocktails served v BACCHUS Night at Makoto — Free noa-alcohollc beverages on N Hedneaday, October 28 Mocktails to the Max" — Student Onion. 10:00 aa - 2:00 pa Mocktalle served: Skewed Drivers, Strawberry Dalcqulrlei Plna Coladas BACCHUS Night at Red Onion Cafe — Free non-alcoholic beverages with coupon Thursday, October 29 Controlled Drinking Experiment^-- Outside Uelbornc Cafeteria. 10:00 an - 1:00 pa Hocktalls^served: Punch BACCHUS Night at Geno's — Free non-alcoholic beverages upon request Friday, October 30 BACCHUS Night at Aaadeus — 8:00 pa - 12:00 midnight (Under 21 allowed entry) Mocktails served: Plna Coladas Band: Ranger Rick and the Lost Guides The following local establishments join BACCHUS in support of National Alcohol Awareness Week.

Setter Val Patterson was sick with strep throat but still played two games. "We played really well together," Joye said. "We're just starting to play good and I think we'll peak at the right time. I think we did so well this weekend because we went out there with the right attitude. We stayed up. We really wanted to win." Blankenship was most impressed with the team's play against UNC-W.

Action was seldom seen from that point on. Midway into the second half, Liberty did strike for their only goal. They threatened to score and tie the game several times, but never con­ nected. Appalachian played the rest of the game by seemingly going through the motions. As Rex said, "Anytime you play inspired and win, it's good." Rex was not upset with the team's play. Liberty is a team that is prepar­ ing to step up to Division I, and they can play with many Division I schools. "If we would have played more spirited, we could have scored more goals," Rex said.

Last year, the minutes of the Senate meetings were posted ,n the lobbies of the residence halls No such attempt has been made to dissiminate this information to offcampus students. Since the SGA Senate plays a vital role in the govern­ ing of students who attend ASU, it seems that all students should have the opportunity to be aware of the Senate's actions Only one newsletter was sent to off-campus residences via their cam­ pus post office boxes. This letter listed the names and addresses of the persons on tne SGA Senate who were to represent the off-campus students. Many of those senators reside on campus and therefore can­ not really be aware of the needs of the off-campus student. The Senate also contains a cabinet position for one off-camDus representative, implying that off-campus students are a minority group requiring special attention. Sheer numbers dictate, however, that the population of off-campus students is by far the majority and should be a more major concern of the Senate. The SGA Senate makes policy and represents the students of ASU Because the Senate fails to make the off-campus student aware of its action, a majority of students have no idea what student government can do for them and thus are apathetic and uninterested. SGA Senate could be far more effective if it would inform and get feedback from the off-campus student. Lack of spirit at 1987 Homecoming Homecoming, the biggest event of the year, has come and gone, but something seemed to be lacking this year. There was just not a lot of enthusiasm about the events surrounding the game. The football game drew a record crowd and Jane Powell fill­ ed H'Appy's, but other programs during the weekend were poorly at­ tended. A few residence halls participated in the banner contest, but there were not many people at the pep rally Friday afternoon. It would be too easy to sum up the problem as a lack of school spirit—but there may have been a way to build the spirit prior to Homecoming. Publicity about programs offered to the campus was painfully low. Many people were simply unaware of the many events which were plan­ ned for the weekend. Off-campus students of which there are more than 60 percent enroll­ ed were particularly uninformed. They received nothing more than one flyer in the mail about the Homecoming programs. Much more could have been publicized to not only announce events, but also to explain what the programs entailed. This could have been accomplished through more press releases to The Appalachian and WASU and additional mailings to students. Homecoming only comes once a year and information about the estivities should not be limited to the 40 percent of the students who hve on campus. BLOOM COUNTY In the absence of the striking union aracters, Bloom County management officials w'" be temporarily Providing the day's Uaggis'h entertainment. Today: Mr. Will J. ^nudson, Asst. Director of Accounting Appalachlaa ( olamoijl In the short time I have been reading The Ap­ palachian, I have noticed a liberal, rationalistic and humanist bias. In response to this imbalance of reality, my intent is to represent a biblical Christian world view. A biblical Christian world view is one which begins with God as absolute and unchanging lawgiver and judge, creator and redeemer. I intend to submit before you a wide range of topics which need to be understood in this age of uncertainty and speculation. One of the greatest shortcomings of modern day western man is a loss of his ability to define the meaning and the nature of life. The Rev. Rousas John Rushdoony has articulated this well with his statement, "Until men define themselves in terms of the Lord, His Kingdom, law and justice, our society's troubles will only increase. Man has no right to define himself. God did that on the day of creation". Our definition of ourselves is in error because we start from ourselves and change in cor­ respondence to our own desires. Today one of the topics of much debate is the sub­ ject of man's sexuality. We have come through the sexual revolution only to face the coup d'etat of an AIDS epidemic. Has your sex life changed over the last year? Is it because of the risk of contracting AIDS or is it because of the law you have changed? Separating Church and State There are many laws which are being written and proposed today which deal with the AIDS epidemic. The July 16 edition of USA Today reports that "over 500 pieces of legislation involving AIDS have been introduced in State Legislatures this year". The list of proposed laws includes premarital AIDS testing, testing of pregnant women, hospital pa­ tients, prisoners, immigrants, and drug users. The law I speak of is not the law of local, state or federal governments. The law which would have of­ fered us protection from the AIDS epidemic is the law "Word of God". Better condoms and "safe sex was not and is not the answer to this human problem. We think we can do what we please as long as we don't hurt anybody or break state or federal laws. This is a very shortsighted understanding of law in the universe. If you break state or federal laws you can be tried and found to be guilty before a civil or criminal court. The reality we need to understand as a nation and as individuals is our accountability to God's law. We do not understand nor do we want to accept a higher law that cannot be changed by the will of man. You can break laws and not be caught but you cannot break laws and remain innocent. I have referred to laws that are being written deal­ ing with the testing for AIDS. 1 want to add there are many more being proposed for the purpose of allocating funds. This added tax burden would be for AIDS educational programs. Who do you think will pay for all of this? For the most part I believe AIDS is the product of sin. That does not mean everybody who has AIDS has been committing acts of sin. Innocent people get AIDS. The sexually transmitted diseases in this nation will cost us all in the end. The tax payer is paying out of his own pocket for the "new morality" that he has readily accepted. Many years ago, homosexuals were said to be "in the closet" because they would be ashamed of their evil deeds. This is another example of how we as a people in our shortsightedness have rejectd the law "Word of God". It is clear in the Bible that the act of homosexuality is an abomination before God. The book of Romans, chapter one says, "and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural func­ tion of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error". It is also written in the book of I Corinthians 6:9, "do you not know that the unrighteous shall not in­ herit the Kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the Kingdom of God". In light of this, it is not the risk of AIDS or the law of man that should govern man's sexuality, but the unrefutable, unchanging law "Word of God"! 1UL NoW, THE PTL CLUB > WiTH — ezzxzzzr-- I, JESSICA HAHN! WE'RE GETTING^ INTERFERENCE FRCM THE PLAYB°Y CHANNEL AGAIN! By AL HUMAN Appalachian Columnist Someone once said something to the effect that more people have slit each other's throat over where they go after their throat is slit than for any othfer reason. Fr®m the looks of things on the Right, there are those who want to keep this tradition up through the melding of religion with the power of the State. Moreover, they seek to do this not only with an aura of divine grace, but of constitutional prece­ dent. Behind the crusade of the Christian Right to establish official prayer, official Bible reading, official creches, religious school vouchers, and offical "creation science," there is a preculiar underlying notion. This notion has it that our Constitution, including the Bill of Rights, is a Chris­ tian document written by Christian men seeking to set up a Christian nation. All this, claims the Christian Right, was swept aside by activist judges and 'secular humanists' who created an artificial separation between Church and State that the Founding Fathers never intended to be.

MUTER n. MILLER By Appalactaiaa Columnist Early this semester, an important new university policy was placed in every mailbox in the ASU post office. I own one of those little boxes; SO just like every other ASU student , I received a copy of the new rules. After removing the policy, along with the rest of the mail from my box, I proceeded to board the Appalcart. Once inside, I took my favorite seat where I do my best reading. Within minutes, however, I was bored to tears with the little pamphlet so brilliantly deemed "The Academic Integrity Policy." So, I decided to look out the window instead. I didn't really see what was so important about a bunch of guidelines, set up to handle cheaters. After all, people don't really cheat in college, anyway. Right? Wrong. Since reading the anti-cheating policy, I have noticed quite a bit of cheating going on. I've seen it in my classes, on a small scale; and I've found out about many cheating net­ works which thrive here on campus. So you ask, "Why do you all of a sud­ den see all this cheating, when you never noticed it at all last year?" Well, perhaps it's because I never really thought about cheating until the policy was sent out. My opinion on the policy is really quite simple; I believe it is a good idea, but I don't think it will really do any good. One reason I feel this way is the simple fact that cheaters will be cheaters and when restrictions are placed upon them, they will simply find better ways to cheat. Also, many professors take offense at being told how to handle their own students. They believe the new policy takes away their personal freedom to con­ duct classes in their own way. My primary concern, however, is that the policy handles only "small­ time" cheaters.(You know the type, those amazing people who can copy an entire month of notes onto their palms.) The policy has no real control over the cheating networks. There are many individuals on this campus who make a great deal of beer money writing other peoples' term papers. Another problem are the file cabinets full of old tests, which are available only to a few select in­ dividuals. Is it really fair that I have to study all night for a "B", while some­ one with access to the cheating net­ work can party all night and get an "A"? I don't think so. I really am not trying to make any value judgments, and 1 don't mean to step on anyone's toes; but this has got to stop! Yes, I know there are still those of you who say that cheating doesn't really hurt anybody. Well, next time you go to the doctor or ride on a commercial airplane, think about this. What might happen to you if that person had someone else take his final for him the week before? Think about it. �10 THE APPALACHIAN. i VJ L^DLS/-l Y, OCTOBER -' > - - ~ TUESDA M. , 27, 1987 • •« Forgive and forget the Outfield To the Editor: I think a majority of the students at ASU have taken the wrong at­ titude about the cancellation of the Outfield's concert tour. By looking over the "Get Well" banner in the Student Union, most students have taken the attitude the Outfield has just cancelled this con­ cert to hurt us. People have to remember it was not only our con­ cert that was cancelled, but the rest of the tour as well. It's like some students think the guy broke his hand on purpose just so he wouldn't have to do the con­ cert. Don't you think the guy would rather be on stage instead of in a cast? It amazes me how immature col­ lege students can be at times. It's like they are pitching a temper tan­ trum because they didn't get what they wanted. Sure I'm upset. Sure I m disappointed. But I have sym­ pathy for the poor guy, too! Heather Hartsog ASU Box 8415 Posters at ASU: the big rip-off To the Editor: Recycling the answer to litterproblem Editor: To the Editor in common-TRASH. Empty beer in common—TRASH. Empty beer cans and bottles, strewn paper and broken glass is the thread that ties these three places together. As members of the Rhododendron Garden Club, as well as the Garden Council of Watauga County, we are appalled with what is happening to our town and county. Are you GUILTY?

All of these places have one thing Authority they are always wrong and should be done away with. All I am trying to say is the RA's are a little too powerful in some of the grey areas of the rules. They are not experienced enough, in many cases, to make educated deci­ sions on certain occasions. Many of the people on my hall refer to the RA's as "stormtroopers" or "Nazis," and even "RA's from Hell" often with reasons. Not all of the reasons justify what is said, but what do you expect from people who are angry for being written up for an of­ fense that they consider to be nothing? I have to agree on many cases. Yes, the United States is the land of opportunity and freedom, that is, unless you are a college student. I believe a session between the students and the university rule-makers is in order. Students, elected by students, would represent all students in a meeting to clear up some of the grey issues with the rule-makers. It certain­ ly cannot hurt. Who knows? It may solve a lot of problems. Classifieds GMeu 5R Assoc WANTED! I am in urgent need for subjects for my thesis. Must be runners who wear orthotics. Male or female, only one hour time commitment.

The possibility of building or leaslg more parking lots and building a arking deck are being considered. Sites being considered are in beteen Rivers Street and Appalachian treet, where the tennis courts are, the riving range parking lot, and the tadium Parking lot. ASU Director of Security Roy ugman said the Stadium area would e the most likely choice, because of he large parking demand there. He lso said the deck could be raised in ections and not drastically interfere nth the current parking space. We don't have more (vehicles) than we have room for," Tugman said. "I hope that our enforcement is consistent. If a student parks illegally, they should expect a ticket every time." —Roy Tugman, ASU Security Director. A decision as to whether to build a larking deck should be reached at the nd of the Spring semester. Unlike many universities, ASU allows underclassmen to bring vehicles to school. Tugman said it has been ASU's policy to enable all students to do this, even though some parking is less convenient for the underclassmen. There are currently about ~ 4,500 1 I1V1V J -paces on campus. These are able to I paces I ccommodate all the vehicles that are I >ermitted to park on campus campus. Tugman said students needing vehicles would be able to park them. Tugman also said the traffic on campus is mucn busier than it was at this time two years ago. He is not sure if there are more tickets being issued than last year, but he said there are at least as many. "I hope that our enforcement is consistent," Tugman said. "If a stu­ dent parks illegally, they should ex­ pect a ticket every time." There are ten student traffic of­ ficers this year and their duties are very specific. "They are empowered to direct traffic on campus," Tugman said. "Student traffic officers can also en­ force all other traffic regulations. They cannot make arrests." Tugman said that anyone bringing a vehicle on campus for the first time, should first register the vehicle with security to get an assigned parking area. wv During peak time, from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. they need to park that vehicle in that specific area," Tugman said.

We are even looking for a new name," Dubberly added. One of the ideas for the new facility will be a food shop concept like you see in shopping malls which will have three to four shops serving different types of foods for students. One shop will be a standard harm' burger operation, serving hotdogs, french fries and chicken fillets. Other ideas include a deli, where students can buy meats and cheeses sold by the pound and a food bar with items like salads and vegetables. Another shop may be an international food operation having Chinese or Italian food or the food selection might change from week to week. Renovations will also affect the ap­ pearance of the new facility. "What we would like to do is go out toward the outside of the building toward the library and put in a glass atrium with some additional seating space in that area," Dubberly said. Dubberly said the plans will include changing the walls and adding new tables and chairs as well as adding a new ceiling and replacing lighting, airconditioning and the heating system. "We are hoping to do something really nice for the students," Dubber­ ly said. "One concept would be to put a window out into the hallway so that people coming through the hallway could just stop in." The types of food to be served at the window have not been decided. However, Dubberly said it will pro­ bably serve quick items such as hot chocolate, candy, cookies or gourmet ice cream. The renovations to the B.I. are ex­ pected to cost around $450,000. Planning is also underway for a new facility similar to the B.I. at Stadium Heights which will be more convenient for students living at Stadium Heights and the Yosef Hollow cluster. One area suggested for the facility would be in an area overlooking the duck pond. However, completion of the facility is not expected for another three years. Other improvements are also plan­ ned in food services. "We are hoping to work in some sort of delivery service to the dorms also," Dubberly said.

The bill introduced by Academic Affairs Committee member Kris Long is to set up classes to teach students how to use the library. See SENATE Page 3 (CPS)—A bank's decision to stop processing loans for students at Adelphi Business College, one of the largest business school chains in the country, has forced the school to close down and sent about 2,500 students scurrying for a way to continue their educations. The students' plight could extend to others enrolled in proprietary colleges, privately owned, for-profit trade or vocational schools that, according to a September congressional report, are so good at getting Guaranteed Student Loans (GSLs) for their students that they're using up loan money that students at other colleges would ordinarily get. But after a bank said it would no longer process Adelphi students' loan ap­ plications, the whole 13-college chain closed. Adelphi had 13 campuses in New York, Arizona, California and Michigan. It also had a bankruptcy filing under Chapter 11, a class action suit for allegedly not delivering what it promised its New York students, and a dispute with the Higher Education Assistance Foundation (HEAF). In an earlier interview with the Associated Press, Terranova said the schools closed because First Independent Trust Company of Sacramento, California, refused to process students' application for guaranteed loans. Terranova also said Adelphi's closing was only temporary. "It's difficult to believe the operation was so hand-to-mouth that a lender declining to nrocess loans would have been the final blow. Few schools depend IN MEMORIAL MHs Rebecca McCotter TomlmW&i 62, of 112 Keystone Drive, Booac, m on one lender," Craig Ulrich said. Ulrich is the general counsel of the Consumer Banking Association in Washington, D.C. Executive vice president of First Independent Trust Glen Bigelow explained that HEAF, the guarantor for the bank's student loans, placed various stipula­ tions on loans to Adelphi students that had to be met before the loan was made. "It was too costly to handle each application manually," Bigelow said. "It was a losing proposition for us to follow the stipulations, process the applica­ tion and wait for assurance from the guarantor." "We couldn't operate that way," he added. The CBA's Ulrich added other banks may stop making GSLs to trade college students in the near future because they, too, don't make much money on them. "In revising the Higher Education Act (in 1986), Congress narrowed the yield financial institutions get from the GSLs. As the yield is reduced the credit policies tighten," Ulrich said. "Trade and technical schools, proprietary schools will suffer. Banks will have to ask if a school's graduates were successful in getting jobs and paying back loans," he said. Bigelow said most proprietary schools depend heavily on federal assistance and for their students, those schools may represent the chance of a lifetime. inson Park. f. : In addition to her efforts (o preserve the Duck Hon<J area, Tomlinson was the founder of ASU's tober 13. piwJOWt vlltvlUfl III itOO. first women's recreation program and A memorial service fbr Miss This past June the Duck Pond area was the first women's basketball I tHOrnm will take oiaee today ^ W honor ami nam-,, coach. j 43 p m : 9 - - TomKnsoo was a member of ma.

The committee is planning to give four classes a week with each class lasting 45 minutes. It will not be man­ datory to attend a set number of classes. "This is not a credit course, it is for those interested," Academic Affairs Chairperson Kirsten Schoonmaker said. Classes will be taught by reference librarians. Schoonmaker said the library staff is very receptive and ex­ cited about the idea. The Academic Affairs committee is working on passing two more bills. One is concerned with the university setting a policy to print the majors or department names on the diplomas of graduating students. The other bill concerns the Registrar's office pro­ viding one full day of drop/add prior to the start of classes. Committees within SGA are work­ ing on various matters. The Com­ munity Affairs Committee is hoping to get the Student Discount progaram completed by November 19. The Student Affairs Committee is conducting a survey of the ASU Food Services. Surveys are being distributed to students. "We hope to get a good response. If 1,000 people feel there is something wrong with the Food Services then it will show a need for change," Student Affairs Chairperson Chris Miller said.

State un-fair: getting old a drag It's unfair. I mean the fact I feel like I've outgrown the ability to enjoy myself to the | fullest at the N.C. State Fair. When I was in eighth grade and lived in Raleigh, I had the absolute best time I at the Fair. We got those huge groups of really obnoxious and annoying junior high school kids together (you've seen them) and all went and rode every ride, ate all the food, and basically walked every single square inch of those fairgrounds with seemingly incredible stamina. I can remember spending at least 60 bucks trying to win those stupid goldfish that die in two days, or those huge Jack Daniel's and Van Halen picture-mirrors my mother wouldn't let me hang anyway. I rode the Enterprise and Gravltron without a second thought as to what might happen to the seven pounds of fried dough I had engulfed en route. Ten hours I spent at that thing five years ago... 10!! Don't get me wrong, I still love the Fair, but thanks to many years of ex­ perience it has lost some of its magic, and I think it is a tragedy it has. (It may be sad, but it has saved me about forty dollars.) I sincerely hope everyone enjoyed their fall break. Being"a freshman, it kind j of amazes me just how fast a college year goes by—oh shucks—and how little time is spent, well, wasting time. I LOVE wasting time, as do a lot of people. As I write this column, I am by myself somewhere up on the beautiful Blue Ridge Parkway laying around in the sun. The Fair is also a fantastic way to waste time. I attended over fall break, and had a tiring but wonderful evening. The weird thing about it is I spend the greater part of my time people-watching and ' looking for old friends. 1 This time, instead of succumbing to the beckoning of the professional j hawkers, I just smiled pleasantly and walked on. This year the seven pounds of fried dough had a violent argument with the ! chili dog. For some reason this argument seemed to be intensified after I rode the Cobra. What the Cobra does to the body does not really bear mentioning, but let's just say my face was sliding slowly off of my skull. I was also later forced, well, not forced, to ride this "hell on Earth" ride | called the Spider. It whirled me around in three different circles at the same ! time, while inflicting about a 3g strain on my body. My back still hurts today. I have two questions: how come this didn't happen five years ago, and do any of you feel the same way I do? See UN-FAIR Page 6 "Hey, can ya ride them things?... Do they spit at ya?... Are they related to cows?... How much can they carry?" These are some of the numerous questions one gets asked while leading a llama along a trail in southern Virginia. Curious hikers, horsepackers and lourists are delighted and intrigued when they spy these unique creatures strolling along the trail, and they want to know... "Just what the heck ARE them things?!" An adventurous band of nine students, staff and faculty from ASU learned the answers to these ques­ tions, and much more about llamas by participating in a llama trek to Mt. Rogers on September 26 and 27. The trek was offered through the office of Outdoor Programs and was led by Judy Fee of Noah Llama Treks, Inc., in Valle Crucis. It was a special ex­ perience for all who participated. The trek began Saturday with an early morning visit to the llama farm, where llama education began. Of course, we asked the same ques­ tions that everyone else does. Yes, llamas do spit, but only when ag­ gravated. This is a largely overexaggerated phenomenon, and as one gets to know these gentle, dignified creatures, one wonders why everyone concentrates so much on that one trait. Judy's favorite response to that question is "Yes, they do spit, but no worse than any major league baseball player." On our trek, the llamas did not spit at us. We soon met the llamas who would be taking us on our trek. Judy ex­ plained that the llamas have a definite pecking order, and Sundance, who she described as a "benevolent dic- , jm 3 - > . •***»£*.

By JIMMY GUIGNARD Et Cetera Editor The ripples that are caused from a rock being thrown into a pond only last until they hit the bank. Then they disappear forever. The ripples in the pond of ASU history caused by the rock known as "the origin of Yosef" have almost disappeared. But not quite. The stone was cast in 1942 when The Rhododendron was one picture short of being a perfectly balanced annual. The editor and associate editor, James Storie and Elizabeth South (whom Storie married in June 1942), freshman Lloyd Isaacs, and a representative from Observer Publishing Co., Bill Mitchell, were hanging around trying to decide what to do. The result of their chattering ahd bantering was the creating of a character named Dan'l Boone Yosef from Appalachian. He was presented as a member of the 1942 freshman class. "The birth of Yosef was an accident," Isaacs claimed. The story is supported by the three surviving members of that group. Bill Mitchell is the only person of the original crew that has died. Isaacs feels that Bill Mitchell should get all the credit. "After all," Isaacs said, "it was Mitchell that said, 'Why don't you put a picture of yourself in there?' " Isaacs told him that his pic­ ture was already in there "somewhere." But apparently the four creative minds didn't stop at that. that. Be proud of Yosef! There was no mascot for ASU before the original Yosef. "If there was I don't remember," Storie said. "We were called the Mountaineers." There were no plans in 1942 for the concept of Yosef to continue and evolve into what it is today. Storie enlisted in the Navy and left for his assignment during March 1942. He had no way of knowing what the reaction to Yosef was. He was told, though, that people liked it and "laughed about it." Isaacs, on the other hand, was drafted into the Army. Before he left for his stint, he got to experience the reaction to the character Yosef. "Everyone liked it," Isaacs recalled. People even went so far as to want to order picture packages of Yosef instead of pictures of themselves. Un­ doubtedly, the caricature, the name and the idea appealed to Appalachian students very much. Pride in the Yosef idea is very apparent to both men. Modesty in their achievement is also predominant because of a casual grace in spreading out the credit. "My wife (Elizabeth South) would get as much credit as anyone," Storie said. There is a controversy as to where the image of the prototype Yosef came from, and who was responsible for the picture. "A staff artist in Charlotte drew a representative of a mountaineer," Isaacs said. Mitchell came up with the idea of getting the picture done by an artist in Charlotte. Storie remembers the process dif­ ferently. He states that one of the group (he can't recall which) went to the bookstore and got a likeness of a mountaineer. A gentleman in Charlotte said the picture would simply need a name. Storie and Isaacs hold varying opinions as to how Yosef has changed over the years. They both agree the name has changed and so has the appearance of Appalachian's mascot. Before the new mascot uniform, the mascot was just a bearded man with coveralls, a pipe and a straw hat. Now he is modernized like Duke Univer­ sity's Blue Devil and North Carolina State University's Wolf. Storie believes that the original Yosef was considered "too ugly," which prompted his changes. It seems that everyone was beginning to think of Yosef as ugly, and his appearance needed to be altered. Storie is not par­ ticularly fond of the newer mascot. Isaacs doesn't really like the new mascot either, although his rationalizations for the change differ. He believes that students felt the need for a "more dignified" mascot and people began to reject the slouchy, flea-bitten hillbilly image. Many peo­ ple also took Yosef for granted and didn't really care what he looked like. All three of the former App students responsible for Yosef were raised in Boone. Isaacs put it simply and eloquently, "Boone's home." Both Storie and Isaacs feel there have been some major changes in the Boone community. Isaacs feels the Boone community has been losing that friendly tradition that is so prevalent in this part of the country. He also gets on campus as much as possible just to walk around and see the students. The campus is just as friendly as it has been in the past to Isaacs. He says students still speak when they pass, and this is a boost for him. "It just makes me feel good," he said. Storie liked Boone better when he was growing up. The Boone popula­ tion was around 1,500 people with 600-800 students. "Everybody knew everybody; it was a small town atmosphere," Storie commented. He also believes the city lacked planning before it began to grow so much. "I hope it doesn't get over 10,000," Storie said of ASU's enrollment growth. He thinks the campus is los­ ing that friendly atmosphere that has been so much a part of the moun­ taineer tradition. Storie thinks that freshmen are not welcomed to ASU the way they used to be, and he also thinks it is impossible for 10,000 students to be as friendly as a class of 800. Education has played an important role in both Storie's and Isaacs' lives. Isaacs came back to ASU after his tour of duty with the Army and got his degree. He proceeded to work in school legislation for many years and is currently vice-president of the Horace Mann Companies. Storie worked in education administration and spent 27 years as an administrator at Mitchell Com­ munity College in Statesville. He just retired in June of this year. Storie believes he "could have never been successful at my profession if it hadn't been for Appalachian." For 44 years now, Yosef has been a major part of Appalachian State University history. We should be proud to have such an original mascot. We should also strive to keep the history of Yosef rippling in the pond. Remember, "Don't forget Yosef!"

A person could go there to hear live music and s'ay half the night. ^e", it's more quiet these days. Holleys' closes its doors around 7 P.m. during the week, and 8 p.m. on weekends, but that doesn't seem to take anything away from what Holleys' has to offer. On the contrary, it onlv th#» natrons of TIPS slfk Restaurant Holleys' wish they stayed open longer. Holleys' has one of the best views of the mountains of any place around. A person can go outside, and sit on their porch and check out the moun­ tains as far as the eye can see. Couple that with a reuben and a nice import beer and you can't beat it. Holleys' offers a wide selection of food. This is possible because Holleys' is part of the Big Dollar grocery which occupies the front of the building.

Oasis was originally founded in the fall of 1978. It started with a 24-hour crisis line, and established in 1980 a shelter for abused women and their children. There are three regular positions on the staff, although they are not always filled. Currently, Director of Client Services Dawn Wilson is the only full-time staff member. There is an abuse prevention educator who lectures in schools and churches on such subjects as date rape and domestic abuse. There is also an Executive Director. In addition to these, there are the shelter manager and alter­ nate shelter manager. The center encourages students and full-time residents to volunteer. "We always need volunteers," Wilson said. "We'd like to see enough regular volunteers so we could set up a support group for abused women and the volunteers could keep a day care." Volunteers fill out an application and submit a resume. "The big way of screening volunteers is for a panel of board members to interview them. They would present the applicant with 'what would you do if...' situations." Wilson feels there are a lot more victims of abuse out there than those that use the shelter. "Many don't know about our program or they feel uncomfortable talking about domestic violence or rape. Some women that come to the shelter have been abused for years and we even have repeat clients," Wilson said. The Oasis shelter has a capacity of 6 to 12 people depending on the size of the people (whether women or children). It also depends on the number of people in each family. "If someone does call in," Wilson said, "and there is no room, we always try to refer them. We make referrals to other agencies and shelters or hotels." In addition to the shelter, there is the 24-hour crisis line See OASIS Page 6 �THE APPALACHIAN, HOMECOMING '87 Holley's Llama Continued from Page 5 LIKE ME. One senses a true in­ telligence in these creatures—they command your respect. Llamas are also very calm animals who do not spook or frighten easily. When we met horsepackers on the trail, it was inevitably the horses who became jit­ tery, while the llamas gazed calmly at them out of huge, brown, doe-like eyes.

Then call the new A.P.P.S. entertainment phone line, and find out what is really going on at ASU. Students should be on the lookout for special stickers to be placed in their mailboxes soon. These stickers will provide the phone line number along with other basic entertainment information which can conveniently be placed on or near a phone. Susan Medlin, who is currently in­ volved with the entertainment phone line, stresses that the main goal of the phone line is to inform students of ac­ tivities in Boone. "We want to eliminate the idea that ASU is a dull college that offers nothing in the way of entertainment," said Medlin. Medlin encourages students to of­ fer suggestions and comments dealing with the phone line. "We hope to get a lot of student feedback on the system. The students are paying for the service, so I want them to take ad­ vantage of it.

Ashley McAdoo Band of Distinction entertaining I used to go to my high school's football games and well, they were boring. We won all the time and everything, but the games weren't exciting. We knew we'd win, we always won, so everyone just wandered around aimlessly. And at half-time, the stadium emptied. Our school's band wasn't exactly the highlight of everyone's Friday night. There were some outstanding individuals such as Karen Andreas who made the McDonalds All American Band for '85-'86, but the band as a whole...? Not too entertaining. 1 loved the games against Dudley High School, though. That band really gets into it. Kind of like ASU's Marching Band of Distinction. That's entertainment. 1 love to go to football games here. My dorm (oops, Residence Hall) always sits to the right of the band. 1 like to see the band march into the stadium, and onto the field. They seem like they're having such a blast. 1 thought that the taste great-less filling argument from a few weeks ago was pretty neat, too. They are always clowning around, and putting more effort into the show than just marching around and playing instruments. But behind all the clowning around, and fun-and-games, and let's-partyattitude there's got to be some work. Some hard work. The band practices at least five hours a week. On home game days, the band has to be at practice at 9 in the morning. I have trouble just making it to a 10 a.m. class. You can measure dedication to an organization by how early the members are willing to get up in the morning. Band Member Ti Farmer said, "The practice that goes into each performance is tedious, but the roar of the crowd at the game makes it all worth while." I think what 1 like best about ASU's band is the way each section tries to outdo the others. The tubas all march together just a little different from the rest of the band. But the best part of the band is the saxophone section. Have you seen those T-shirts? "The best sax you've ever had." Cool. If you haven't been following the saga of the saxes, check it out at Saturday's game. They seem to be the leaders of all the spontaneous "Louie, Louie" playing, and that kind of stuff. I think the two guys in charge of special saxophone antics are Mark Breidenbach and Steve Caudill. The saxes once yelled at the tuba section, "Hey tubas! If you didn't smell so bad, you wouldn't have to sit so far away!" They also seem to be infatuated with one of the cheerleaders named Kelly. They've played a couple of songs at different Sanies and afterwards yelling things like, "Hey, Kelly! How'd ya like it?" I Personally would be flattered to be the object of admiration of a bunch of saxy dudes. I would like to thank Breidenbach and Caudill, plus all the saxes, and the entire ASU Marching Band of Distinction for making football games so enter­ taining. Several members of Appalachian State University's art department will exhibit their work in the Catherine Smith Gallery through November 6. The exhibit includes work ranging from paintings and sculpture to fiberwork. Faculty members participating in the show are Warren Dennis, Joan Durden, Dr. Margaret Poison, Dr. Eric Purves, Marilyn Smith, Mary Wyrick and John Turner, painting; Sherry Edwards, Denise Grohs, Robin Martindale and Leek Willett, sculpture; Susan Sharpe and Dr. Marianne Suggs, fiberwork; Dr. Harold Carrin, alloys; Cecile Carnes, paper assemblage; Noyes Long and Judy Humphrey, prints; Mary Prather, clay; and Barbara YaleRead, calligraphy. Robin Martindale, Mary Prather and John Turner are new members of the art faculty. Martindale, who teaches graphics design, was graphics designer for the N.C. Zoo in 1986, and for Duke University Medical Center in 1985. She has operated her own design stuio in Charlotte, and has also worked for several Charlotte studios. Prather, a native of Fayetteville, teaches clay construction. She was an art teacher for grades K-8 in the Avery County school system from 1984 to 1987, and has taught in the Pamlico County Schools and Southeastern Community College in Whiteville. Turner, a native of Memphis, Tenn., has worked several years as a curatorial assistant at Memphis State and 15 years as a freelance designer and artist. A lecture on color and its uses will be held November 4 at 9 a.m. in the gallery. Speakers will be Joan Durden, Peggy Poison, Cecile Carnes and Mary Wyrick. A reception will be held in the gallery October 25 from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. Dr. Witold Kosmala, an ASU math professor, will play the violin.

Powell, whose range goes beyond that of a piano, has been compared to female vocalists such as Patti Labelle, Tina Turner and Aretha Franklin. She has opened for groups including Lionel Hampton, the Shirells and the Drifters. Critics have said of Powell, "If you can only see one performance this year, see this one." Powell describes herself as, ".. .a little bit of ja^z, a little bit of blues, a little bit oi soul and a lot of what I'm singing that night depends on my mood."

Pianist Alec Chien to perform In 1986, Alec Chien won the Grand Prize of the Eighth Gina-Bachauer In­ ternational Piano Competition in Utah. In addition, he also received the Audience Favorite Prize with a seven to one margin over his next com­ petitor. In 1985, he won the Affiliate Artists Audition in New York, engag­ ing him throughout the States in artist-in-residencies with major sym­ phonies. He has also been a winner in the Paloma O'Shea International Piano Competition and the Sydney International Piano Competition. His New York solo recital debut was raved by the New York Times, which reviewed that Chien is a "very strong musical personality with an un­ commonly special ear for sound." In his Los Angeles debut, he was viewed by the Los Angeles Times as having "an uncommon flair for accent and color... attending carefully to nar­ rative nuances, working with an assured control of dynamics and ar­ ticulation which never sounded studied or fussy." In his Pittsburgh debut, the Jewish Chronicle com­ mented that "Chien has reached a point of keyboard command and in­ terpretive maturity which should fur­ ther fuel an already remarkable career." He has also been soloist with major symphonies such as the Philadelphia Orchestra, Pittsburgh Symphony, Saint Louis Symphony, Utah Sym­ phony, Atlanta Symphony, Hong Kong Philharmonic, American Sym­ phony and the North Carolina Sym­ phony. Chien will be performing at ASU on Tuesday, October 27, as part of the Performing Arts and Forum Series, a division of Student Pro­ grams. The performance, at 8 p.m., will be in the Broyhill Concert Hall. Tickets are $2 for students and $4 for non-students, and may be purchased Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Farthing Auditorium, or on Friday from 12 noon to 1:30 p.m. at the Student Union Ticket Booth.

Campus Stations have problems (CPS)—Many local music fans thought of WUSB, the State University of New York at Stony Brook's FM sta­ tion, as Long Island's hippest radio outlet. The station, after all, often played new, radical music no one else did. But not any more. Like hundreds of college radio stations this fall, WUSB has gotten a lot blander on purpose. At some campuses, the changes have torn apart staffs, and led to rhetorical wars with station managers and college officials. Like hundreds of other stations, WUSB will stay safe at least until the end of October, when the Federal Com­ munications Commission (FCC) is due to respond to a broadcasters' petition to change its rules about what kinds of racy material they can allow on the air. The station's retreat to safe music and programming, broadcasters say, began last April, when the FCC revised its "indecency" guidelines. The FCC's April revision bars stations from using "language or material that depicts or describes, in terms patently offensive as measured by contemporary standards for the broadcast medium, sexual or excretory activities or organs." ~ "The guidelines that used to give the appearance of be­ ing concrete are now fuzzy," Intercollegiate Broadcasting System President Jeff Tellis said. The FCC will respond to the petitions to reconsider the indecency policy October 29, FCC attorney Ben Halprin said, but, until then, broadcasters say they'll keep cen-oring themselves. While advertisers and ratings battles tend to keep offcampus stations close to the mainstream anyway, the FCC's April rule change drastically altered programming at campus stations, which feature experimental shows and often celebrate the outrageous. "College radio is at the forefront of doing things dif­ ferent," WUSB station manager Norm Prusslin said. "Every time you have to ask yourself 'can I do this,' that's a chill'ig 'ffer* ^*-*ions are smart to be cautious, but it stifles creativity." So at the University of Washington, KCMU jocks no longer say "the Butthole Surfers" when referring to the thrash band, in order to play it safe. "Now our DJs say the FCC Surfers," station manager Chris Knab said. University of Vermont program director Dave Smith warns volunteers not to air music by the Dead Kennedys and other punk bands if they're not sure the music doesn't contain sexual references. The FCC's new rule also has chased some gay, sex education, poetry and drama broadcasts off the air, reported Pat Watkins of the National Federation of Com­ munity Broadcasters, which counts about 100 college sta­ tions as members. "There's no question about it, this has had a chilling effect," Watkins said. "It's important for stations and their staffs to under­ stand the rules and the implications," said Prusslin. "Do you really want to risk your license to broadcast a few dirty words?" The FCC demonstrated it will play hardball when it issued warnings to three stations for broadcasting indecent material in 1986: Philadelphia's WYSP for shock jock Howard Stern's morning program, Los Angeles' KPFK for airing the homosexual play "Jerker," and the Univer­ sity of California-Santa Barbara's KCSB for playing the Pork Dukes' "Makin' Bacon " which contains references to oral and anal sex. The moves. Watkins said, are politically motivated. "Clearly, the Reagan administration is linked with the Moral Majority and the religious right, which wants to im­ pose its own morality on the rest of us and clean up the air­ waves. And Pacifica," she said, referring to .he non-profit foundation that owns KPFK. "ha« alway bothered Republicans." "The FCC and the right," Pacifica Executive Director David Salnicker, "are out to get us." Pacifica, a leftist radio network, lost a 1973 battle with the FCC, which stopped one of its stations, WBAI in New York, from airing comedian George Carlin's "7 dirty words" monologue, in which he lampoons 'he FCC for banning certain words "The implications are tremendous, since Pacifica is emulated and respected as a leader in this field. They've gone overboard," Gault-Williams added. KCSB DJs, however, are required to pre-screen material. The station also has limited the hours potentially See STATIONS Page 8 �THE APPALACHIAN, HOMECOMING '87 ASU student wins Competition Armalarhian Appalachian State senior Pamela mdy was awarded a $1000 scholar­ ship October 1 for winning the John A.

Homecoming is one of the busiest and most hectic times of the year for most people. There are friends coming up and parties to attend. There is even a queen crowned on Homecoming. Still, when you get right down to it, the biggest part of the week is the foot­ ball game. The game itself is the perfect topping to a festive week. That is why winning or losing on Homecoming Day can turn your week into one which will be remembered for a long time or one that soon fades into memory. In the recent years the Mountaineer football program has given us more than one Homecoming lasting memory. There is the great Furman upset in 1984 when the heavily favored Paladins, defending champions of the Southern Conference, were stunned 21-14 by the Apps. Few people have probably forgotten Homecoming '86. The 63-6 rout of Davidson Wildcats produced the fifth-highest scoring performance in ASU football history. ASU is currently riding a streak of five consecutive Homecoming victories and Mountaineer Coach Sparky Woods is undefeated on this particular day. Despite this success, Woods says nothing special is done in preparation for a Homecoming game. "I really don't think you have to talk about it because I expect our kids to play as good as they can if nobody is at the game," Woods said. "With all of their friends coming back and the festivities during the week, they sense the excitement. If I talk about it then I'm telling them something they already know." Whatever Woods tells his players, it is definitely working. He has pulled off two Homecoming upsets with the '84 Furman win and the 25-0 whitewash of another defending conference champion, UT-Chattanooga, in 1985. Under Woods, the Mountaineers have outscored their opponents 109-20 on For the last two years, Appalachian State has lead Division I-AA football in turnover margin. Saturday, the Mountaineers took advantage of four Furman turnovers, converting three for scores, for a 16-8 Southern Con­ ference football victory and the Apps first ever victory at Furman. ASU spoiled the Paladins' Homecoming with three first half field goals from Bjorn Nittmo and a second half touchdown set up by cornerback Keith Isom's interception. Furman Coach Jimmy Satterfield might think the Paladins did more spoiling than Appalachian did. "We just had too many turnovers," Satterfield said. "We had two interceptions and two fumbles. That's too many against a team as good as Appalachian. They did a great job of capitalizing on our mistakes. —Jimmy Satterfield Furman Coach • vi • • -\« teem at any Homecoming game and Woods master motivator in this situation. "I think it is almost more motivating for the away team," Woods said. "I know 1 tell my guys, Took they schedule you for homecoming,' because you usually schedule a team you can beat." This strategy apparently works as the Mountaineers have ended more than one school's Homecoming Week on a down note. In 1986 the Apps were spoilers in two opponents' Homecomings on their way to posting their 9-1-1 regular season mark. ASU traveled to Chattanooga to play the Mocassins on their Homecoming one year ago and a late fourth quarter drive headed by tailback John Settle gave the Apps a 20-15 win. James Madison's Homecoming turned into Black Saturday Homecoming party which they had just as soon forgot. Placekicker Bjorn Nittmo nailed a 34-yard field goal with six seconds remaining to give ASU a 21-20 come-frombehind win. One reason the Apps have played so many Homecoming games on opponents' territory is ASU football's lack of success in the pre-Woods era. The Mountaineers were scheduled because most teams felt that would give them a win on Homecoming. "These games are scheduled a couple of years in advance," Woods said. "For a long time, Appalachian was the team you played on Homecoming because they were the team to beat." All of that has changed now and the Mountaineer football program has joined the upper echelon of the Southern Conference. No longer will ASU be scheduled as the team to beat on Homecoming as recent history proves that would be a mistake. "Obviously Homecoming is Homecoming and all the activities during the week focus on the game," Woods said. "If you lose, you put a damper on the whole week, but Homecoming increases your chances to win." Homecoming is a week everyone looks forward to and, if you happen to be a Mountaineer football fan, it is looked forward to with great anticipation. Pitts revives golf By SABRINA SELLS Appalachian Staff Writer When Andrew Pitts won the Camp­ bell Invitational at the Keith Hills Golf Club last Friday, there were no wild celebrations on the ASU campus. Perhaps, there should have been, though. Pitts is the first individual champion that the ASU golf team has had in over ten years. For his ac­ complishment, he is the Appalachian Athlete of the Week. Pitts shot 76 and 70 on the par-72 course to clinch the first place finish. "The course was a pretty hard one," Pitts said. "It was challenging so the scores were fairly high." The ASU golf team placed 10th in the field of 19 teams. Pitts is a sophomore from Hildebran. He transferred from South Carolina last year where he was unable to play due to an injured foot. He has three years of eligibility left Pitts feels that the team is improv­ ing gradually and that better finishes are not far away. nppaiacman rnoto by ASU SID Quincy Bethea stayed in Moore's face. That size ad­ vantage finally took its toll on the Furman offense when they were forc­ ed to throw the ball to come from behind. "Their pass rush really hurt us when we had to pass the ball," Satter­ field said. Linebacker Kenny Blacknell led all ASU tacklers with 17 while Anthony Downs had 14, including a sack, two pressures and two tackles for loss. ASU coaches nominated Bethea for his blocked field goal, 6 tackles, one pressure, one pass broken up, and a tackle for loss...

The Southern Conference placed three teams in this week's top twenty with Western Carolina (4-2) placing ninth and ASU's Homecoming oppo­ nent UT-C (4-2), coming in tied for 17th. The Dukes of James Madison (5-1),whose only defeat was against the Mountaineers earlier in the year, moved up three places to fifth.

Florida State captured the event with 44 points, while the University of Georgia tied ASU for second with 52 points. "We competed well against some very strong runngers," ASU men's coach Bob Pollock said. The 8000-meter race was flat and sandy and gave the squad an oppor­ tunity to run on a fast course. The top five men's scores were: Pete Vandenburg in fourth place with a time of 25:17; Dean Duncan in eighth at 25:34; Craig Warren ninth in 25:37; Scott Vance 12th with a time of 25:49; and Morris Piercey 19th in 26:32. "The runner of the week is Pete Vandenburg," Pollock said. He had his best individual times at the meet. In the women's 5000-meter race, the Lady Apps placed fourth overall with 61 points. However, there was only a six-point spread between se­ cond and fourth place. The Florida State women's team won with 34 points. An ASU school record was broken at the meet by Karen Osada. Osada Finished in 18:01.6 coming in second place overall. Vanessa Tysor came in fifth at 18:21. For 17th, 18th, and 19th places, Holly DeCan had a time of 19:58, Reippe Melton 20:01, and Dana Burkhalter 20:06. Beth Ruggles, the Lady Apps top runner this year, did not compete due to a leg injury. She is saving her strength for the Southern Conference Championship. "We feel pretty good about the meet, but we are looking forward to the Southern Conference Champion­ ship," women's coach Weaver said. "We are very proud of Karen Osada for breaking the school record."

"We enjoy playing so I'm sure that we'll continue to get better." Pitts attributes his success to his long career as a golfer. "I've been playing since I was four," he said. "1 had a really good junior career and was exposed to a lot of golf when I was younger." As for his future at ASU, Pitts feels confident that he will continue to do well on the team.

The Apps netted just one yard on three plays, settling for Nittmo's 41-yard field goal and a 6-0 lead with 4:18 left in the first quarter. The Paladins responded by driving 71 yards on 13 plays only to have Mike Woods field goal attempt block­ ed by Quincy Bethea. Early in the first quarter, ASU linebacker Orlester Glanton's interception of Speaks thwarted a Furman threat at the ASU 23. Tailback Ritchie Melchor and fullback Doug Beaty alternated three carries apiece until Beaty scored the clincher from a yard out, handing the Apps a 16-0 lead midway through the third period. "The biggest play of the game was Isom's interception," Woods said. "It gave us the advantage to finally get the ball in." Furman wasted no time in retaliating with their only touchdown of the game on an 11-play, 80-yard scoring drive. Moore hit wide receiver Steve Gandy in the end zone from 14 yards out for the score. Satterfield elected to go for two to draw them within a touchdown and two-point conversion of the Moun­ taineers. Moore completed the deuce pass to tight end Tim Fox for the game's final points early in the fourth quarter. The Paladins would get two more cracks at pulling even with ASU, but the App defensive line, outweighing Furman's offensive line 272-229, By KAREN GOSCH The Mountaineers used a 16-8 vic­ tory over the Paladins of Furman to propel themselves into a number two national ranking in this week's divi­ sion I-AA football poll. Holy Cross (6-0) remained the nation's number one squad as the Crusaders and Apps were named first and second on all four ballots. "It's nice to be number two but I'd like to be number one," said ASU Coach Sparky Woods. "Holy Cross has an excellent football team and looking at their schedule I don't see them getting beat." North Texas State (5-2), last week's number two team, dropped to seventh following a 19-10 loss to division I-A Coach Sam Adams, an ASU graduate, is excited about Pitts being on the team, also. After Pitts' vic­ tory, he commented, "I can't remember the last time ASU had an individual champion. It has been at least ten years."

"I like the coach a lot and I have a lot of friends that go to school up here," Pitts said. While he pulls most of the load on the team, he does not seem to mind. "It's not a burden at all," Pitts said. "It's fun to lead the team. We are a team competing in individual tournaments." Andrew Pitts Statistics showed the contest to be as close as expected. Both squads ran 67 plays and ASU's advantage in time of possession was just 22 seconds. But too often, the Mountaineers benefit­ ted from Paladin miscues, whereas the Apps committed no turnovers. "One of our goals going into the game was not to have any turnovers," ASU Coach Sparky Woods said. Furman coptinued its generosity when Speaks mishandled the snap and lineback Mike Cureton recovered for the Mountaineers at the Paladin 27. Hampered by two clipping penalties, the Mountaineers managed one total yard before settling for Nitt­ mo's third three-pointer from 42 yards and a 9-0 Appalachian lead 2:31 before intermission. Two possessions into the third quarter, Isom came up with what Woods called the play of the game when he intercepted a Moore pass and returned it 18 yards to the Furman 13. "Their pass rush really hurt us when we had to pass the ball." "We just had too many turnovers. We had two in­ terceptions and two fumbles. That's too many against a team as good as Appalachian They did a great job of capitalizing on our mistakes."

Barnes and Alford contributed outstanding efforts against the Moun­ taineers last year. Alford scored on a 33 yard pass reception and Barnes scooted 22 yards with a reverse for six points. "Both of them (Barnes and Alford) scored touchdowns on us last year," Woods said. "They have good hands, great jumping ability and excellent speed." The UT-C defense, which is always the case, is the strong part of the team. The unit is a stingy, hard­ hitting group, that loves to hammer opponents. The Moc defensive front is big, strong, and physical. Roger Shadburn, Troy Boeck, Tony Bowick, and Terry Bess form the intimidating unit. Linebackers Jerome Merrill, Willie Greenway, Zach Ervin, and Junior Jackson are tough and aggressive, and like contact. "They have great linebackers, both inside and outside," said Woods.

The game, which was played at Chamberlain Field, was UT-C's Homecoming contest. In 1985, the last time Chattanooga visited the mountains, the Mocs were t nrashed 25-0. The game was ironical­ ly ASU's Homecoming. The Mocs would like nothing better ban to spoil Homecoming for the Apps. ASU Head Coach Sparky Woods knows this, and he and his staff are working hard to prepare i heir squad for a tough physical bat­ tle. "Chattanooga is one of the most athletic teams we have seen," said Woods. "We have a great deal of respect for them, and expect an ex­ tremely physical game." Offensively, the Mocs possess ex­ tremely good talent. They have very athletic, skilled position players with great speed and quickness. Quarterback Stan Nix, the son of Moc Head Coach Buddy Nix, directs a unit that is capable of ringing up some big numbers. Nix, a freshman, has completed 55 of 111 passes for 670 yards while throwing four interceptions. Nix has a pair of 170 pound flyers to throw to in receivers Quinton Alford and Danny Barnes.

As an outside goal, Pitts is aiming high. An NCAA berth is not out of the question. "I ultimately want to get an NCAA berth," Pitts said. "The committee chooses four or five teams from the Southeast to compete in the tourna­ ment and then four or five individuals outside of those teams who are eligi­ ble to compete also. I want to be one of those four or five players." Adams expects to hear from Pitts more and more as the golf season pro­ gresses at ASU. With his continued success, perhaps the team will be able to pick up the confidence that Pitts exudes. I) ASU golf places 10th ASU golfer Andrew Pitts won the Campbell Invitational last Saturday and the Mountaineers placed 10th out of 19 teams at the Keith Hills Golf Club. Pitts claimed the first individual championship in at least 10 years of App golf. The last ASU golfer to place first was Mike Bright in the late 1970s. Bright went on to be a member of the PGA Tour for two years. The ast team championship came when the Apps won the Southern Con­ ference Championship in 1978. Pitts fired rounds of 76 and 70 on the par-72 layout. Braxton McLen­ non finished at 75-77-152. The final three ASU golfers struggled around Keith Hills in worse fashion. Rodney Elam finished at 164, Mike Sorge and Sam Neill at 167. ASU Coach Sam Adams has been forced to juggle his line-up from match-to-match. Sorge and Neill were not present at ASU's prior match at Duke. Brad Kennedy, Kent Shelton and Bill Gombert filled out the roster for that match.

The Apps dominated the match and put away their Southern Conference foe, 15-8, 15-4, 15-1. A big dif­ ference for the Mountaineers was the move of Holly Ryerse from middle blocker to power hitter. Ryerse responded with 11 kills while converting 63 percent of her chances. The Apps also got a good performance from Kim Warren who finished with a hit­ ting percentage of 50. The win pushed ASU's record to 10-7 and 4-4 in the Southern Conference where they stand fifth. Appalachian Photo by Keith Jones Xicking COMMENT ADVANTAGE The Mountaineers continue to excel in the rushing deportment as they are racking up 189.7 yards per game on the ground. The big play man for the Apps in the past two weeks has been fullbadr/tailback Doug Beaty. Beaty has averaged 115.5 yards in his lost two outings and seems to be the back Woods will go to on key downs. ASU's leading rusher, however, continues to be Ritchie Me Ichor. Despite being banged up for much of 1987, Meichor has still manoged to rush for 382 yards. The Moccasin ground game is adequate at 155.8 yards per game rushing. The leoder of the squad is tailbock Darryl Streeter. The Montgomery, Alaboma junior is on a 1,000-yard pace having already racked up 593 yards In just six games. Streeter gets the ball over 22 times per game and will be asked to carry a big part of the toad Saturday. Don't expect any spectacular aerial displays when these two teams go at it Saturday as neither squad has proven they can throw the football. The Mocs hove shown to be a little more proficient than ASU as quarterbacks Stan Nix and Brod Patterson have combined for 804 yards and six touchdowns. Nix, son of UT-C cooch Buddy Nix, is the passer of the duo having completed 55-of-111 attempts for 670 yards and four touchdowns. His favorite target is wide receiver Danny Barnes. Barnes is averaging fourj catches per game and has reeled in four TD's. ASU's Todd Payton has yet to throw a touchdown pass in '87. The senior QB has completed only 49.6 percent of his tosses thus far with most of them going to his running backs. Two excellent defenses will be on hand Saturday as both teams have been stingy against their opponents this season. The Mountaineers have proven to be an im­ movable force at times. Although giving up over 300 yards per game, the Apps have been stubborn when it comes to giving up points. ASU is relinquishing just 12.3 points per game despite playing two of the nation's best offenses in Wake Forest and South Carolina. The Moun­ taineers secondary has been a pleasant surprise in '87 having given up just me TD toss in six games. The Moc defense has also bt-en impressive, allowing just 295 yards and 17.5 points per game thus far in '87. A couple of strong inside linebackers, Zach Ervin and Willie Greenway, anchor the corps. UT-C has been particularly stingy against the pass where they have given up just 137.7 yards per outing. When it comes to placekicking, Woods has to have all the confidence in the world in Ail-American candidate Bjom Nittmo. Nittmo is 12-for-14 on the season with both misses coming from beyond 40 yards. The Swedish-born junior has plenty of distance in his powerful left leg hav­ ing connected on boots of 47, 48, and 51 yards in '87. Nittmo has also drilled all nine point afters he has at­ tempted this year. The App punting chores will be handl­ ed by junior college transfer Tony Cox. Cox is averaging 37.7 yards per kick on the season. Placekicking has been a problem thus far for the Moccasins. Junior Dennis Waters has connected on just seven-of-13 field goal at­ tempts with his longest kick being from 42 yards out. Junior Billy Smith carries a 39.5 yard average into Satur­ day's contest. Snakebite Continued from Page 10 The Apps have a couple of im­ pressive streaks going, and would like to continue them this weekend. The Mountaineers haven't lost a Southern Conference game since Ferman beat them in 1985. They have compiled a record of 13-0-1 since then. The APP.s haven't lost a regular i i season game in Conrad Stadium since Citadel beat them in 1984. . Their regular season home record in the span is 14-0-1. The Apps will need all of these in­ tangibles plus a sell-out crowd to overcome the talented Moc squad. Hopefully they will get their sell­ out, and we will get another Victory in Conrad-Stadium.- gnosUi due Ot ii'iV n-T iTH,-:'. •••!'! . (II j!

LESTER VAN GILDER FROM TO FORM Appalachian Columnist 44Just say no" to drug testing Drug testing continues to be a volatile issue for all aspects of |)ciety. People are being tested for illegal drug use in college and profes|onal athletics, the military, the federal government and in the private etor. At least one college, Central Florida Community College, has gun testing non-athletes on campus who participate in activities that present the college such as theater, music and cheerleading. This could be the beginning of a dangerous trend. Although the nstitutionality of testing college atheltes is questionable, is was at ast partially justifiable since the steroids and drugs could unfairly ter the athlete's performance. But testing students from any collegeipresenting activity has no rhyme or reason. It bears a clear message [g from the administration to the students and community that the students are not trusted to make decisions on their own. Testing students—athletes or not—displays an assumption that ithout the fear of disciplinary action to curtail their actions, the udents are all breaking the law. The courts do not support the ideology that universities and colleges ave the right to test school representatives randomly and discipline "' those whose tests are returned positive. A diver at Stanford University was removed from the team after his test results returned positive. He appealed the decision and the AL California courts ruled that his privacy was invaded and he returned to the team.

[BLOOM COUNTY www w ^y\ HEY' s» i-afe. m; College life is a typographical error. Just when things are going right, the transitions smooth, the verbs all tense with action, along comes an er­ rant, misspelled word to distract at­ tention. I can take this nuisance imbedded in the proofest of papers one step fur­ ther: I see things in typo! Today's headline in the Charlotte Observer, for instance—"Senate Says No to Pork." Really? I thought all the news these days surrounded con­ firmation hearings for a recently vacated Supreme Court seat? But, hey! If the Senate is moving one step I'm afraid to look at road signs because I know that a psychological typo lurks just around the next curve. Numerous migrations to Myrtle Beach have not prevented me from seeing "Soused at the Border," when I know good and well that these per­ sistent, larger-than-life commercials are merely an advertisement for awe­ struck tourists and party animals truly in need of roadside relief.

Obviously an intentional, rhetorical question on behalf of management to provoke a rebel response). But that one's obvious. More than likely a burned out bulb rather than a burned out brain cell. I see "Lowe's Acreage" as opposed to "Lowe's Bakery"; and by the time I get to variations on "Harris Teeter," I begin to become concerned as to what I may utter in public. Something tells me my puny Western mind is not amiss, however. I chalk up these derisions of grandeur break, like a wave." At this time, 1 gave the work a title of my own ("The Wave"). Does this pet name mean that, for me, it represents a wave?

Further, its qualities vary pronouncedly as it is viewed from one angle or Some people don't like it, but I think Ribbons III is a good work of art.

Appalachian Guest Columnist Infirmary more than aspirin dispenser To the Editor: The purpose of this letter is to share with you some concerns that I have about your recent editorial of October 1, 1987 entitled "Infirmary delays; students at risk." If this editorial truly reflects the feelings of the students here at Appalachian State University, then we here at the Student Health Ser­ vices need to clear up some misconceptions. I will try to do that. First, 1 want to make it very clear that the decision to "crack down" on students who cannot produce proof of immunization is not a deci­ sion of the Student Health Service or even of the university. This is a decision of the state of North Carolina in the form of a law that, as of two years ago, required all institutions of higher learning to insure that all undergraduates and graduate students entering college must have certain required immunizations. The law and the state Division of Health Services stipulates what proof is acceptable. The law requires that students who do not present proof, and who have not started the required immunizations, be administratively withdrawn from the university one month after classes begin. These are things over which we at the Student Health Services have absolutely no control. I want to assure you and all students here that this "crack down" is not of our choosing. We certainly have enough to keep us busy without creating more work for ourselves. LET'S 60. $ The second thing that I want to do is explain how we let students know about this law and what immunizations are required: To the Editor: so mine V WW mams! mPooR fTANP, J0V&66 opvs." r 1 z I moceti- I would like to respond to the ar­ ticle entitled "The Bible: God's hot, new novel"; rubbish, rubbish! When we start to read the Bible as though it were no more than a novel, we will lose reality in fiction. I think the article was just a smoke screen or a snow job. The idea of the Bible being a novel is a novel way of refusing to accept the truth. We don't have to be accountable to a novel that may or may not be in­ spired by God. The Bible is God's law word to mankind. I know this is hard for some to accept, but like it or not, believe it or not, we will be held ac­ countable to this law word of God campus that have not satisfied the requirements of the law. At that time a letter is sent to them at their box on campus and home address explaining what is required and inviting them to come to the Student Health Services for further explanation or help in getting the information or the immunizations. 1. When a student is accepted at ASU, an acceptance packet is sent to the student and in that packet is a medical form on which the required immuniza­ tions are explained and what proof is required. 5. On approximately August 25, a letter went out from the Registrar's office informing the students who had not complied that they needed to "get on the stick," that time was running out. 2. As the medical forms are returned they are screened and promptly returned if the immunizations or the proof is insufficient to meet state requirements. They are sent back to the student with explanation of what is needed further. 3. Someone, namely Dr. Ashby, goes before each Student/ Parent Orientation session during the summer and explains what information is required by the state law and what will happen if it is not supplied. 4. After students have been admitted and have come to campus, we receive a list of all students and we can then identify which students are on Bible is the real CLAMS WE'RE FT 'FISHERMAN'S PEINE WHARF."

The contradic­ tions come from our lack of understanding. God's word is not arbitrary, carpricious or changeable. In your example you stated that in the ten commandments it says it is wrong to kill, but then God kills. This is a twisted misunderstanding on your part and I would hope in ig­ norance and not malicious intent. What is being said in this command­ ment is "Thou shalt not murder." The word that is being used is the Hebrew word ratsach; it means murder a human being. God is the author of capital punishment, but not a murderer. And if we want to get down to basics, Death is the result of man's sin and not the will of a loving God. It is the justice of God that demands death; the wages of sin are death. As to the way the word of God is written: it is literal, symbolic and allegorically presented; it is truth. God is the ultimate divine authority. He has made no mistake in his com­ munication to us through his divine, inerrant word. The mistakes rest in the hardness of the human heart.

The immunizations required for college are the same ones that are required for high school. If a student absolutely cannot give proof of immunization he/she must start their immunizations all over. The third point that I would like to make is there are some actions the university takes that are not con­ trolled by the Student Health Ser­ vices. Among these are whether or not a student will get a refund and whether or not the student will be reinstated after being administrative­ ly withdrawn. Those actions are under the control of others.

If our Founding Fathers felt so guilty about slaves, why did they have them in the first place? Why did they wait to free some of the slaves in their wills. Quite simply it was probably greed. Yes, our forefathers were just as greedy as some of the Capitalist Pigs running around in the business world today. Our grand forefathers set the stage for today's 'I,' 'Me,' 'Mine,' generation. The joke at Thomas Jefferson's cocktail parties was why some of the younger black servants looked like him. Thomas Jefferson (and many of his cronies) took liberties with his slaves that would be considered 'rape' today.

I guess I should make the point that the word 'imbecile' is not mentioned in either of these or any of the amendments.

ANYTIME �THE APPALACHIAN, HOMECOMING '87 487 Homecoming NEWS Progress in ASU's multi-million dollar facelift By ANDREA ANDERSON Appalachian Slaff Writer The face of ASU has changed greatly in the past ten years. There have been 11 buildings built since 1977 and there have been many renovations and improvements made on campus. University Hall was completed in 1983. This building, costing $1,751,000, is located behind the Scotchman in Boone, and is the home of the Appalachian Cultural Museum and the Appalachian Studies Pro­ gram. In 1977, a new chemical storage building went up at a cost of $50,000 and in 1978 the ASU Biology Greenhouse was built, costing $86,000. The Greenhouse is located beside Rankin Science Building and behind Edwin Ducncan hall. A prominent addition was made to the south side of campus when Con­ rad Stadium was built for $2,000,000. There has been one building torn down in the past ten years, Watauga Hall, which was demolished in 1980. It used to stand in the middle of what is now Sanford Mall. It as a residence hall and later an office building until it was torn down. Broyhill Music Center was erected in 1983 for $6,634,000 and an additional $1,033,000 were spent in completing it this year. Two residence halls were built in 1980 as a joint project. Belk and Frank Halls, located near the stadium, went up for $1,447,000 and $1,753,000 respectively. Broyhill Music Center was erected in 1983 for $6,634,000 and an addi­ tional $1,033,000 were spent in com­ pleting it this year. this year: the Scott Industrial Arts building, and the Quinn Recreation center, which is located near the Stadium. These buildings cost $4,128,000 and $3,304,000 respectively. In 1981, the Student Support Building was completed, costing $3,100,000 and it houses the Infir­ mary, the Post Office and the Counseling Center. An Auxiliary Service Warehouse was built on State Farm Road in 1987 for $326,500. Two other buildings have been built The university has also renovated many buildings, such as Wellborn Hall (the Cafeteria), Coffey Hall, which became a residence hall, Whitener Hall, which was renovated in 1986, the Bookstore and the book tower in Belk Library. H'Appy's was redesigned from agrocery store in 1983. The university also has plans to work on making the campus more handicapped-accessible, such as add­ ing an elevator in Edwin-Duncan Hall.

Registration system New academic integrity code is enacted may be improved By SHELLEY KAEHR Appalachian Staff Writer By HARRY L. DOWLESS A new Academic Integrity Policy was developed at ASU. The policy went into effect on August 17, 1987. "Nothing's happening with the new code yet," Public Defender Mark Skidmore said. The new code allows the student to discuss a first violation with the facul­ ty member. If the student admits guilt, the faculty member imposes a penalty and an agreement is signed by both the student and faculty member. Appalachian Slaff Writer Next semester, the new registration system will commence in full swing. The changes will benefit students in that the need for dropping unwanted classes should be at least partially, if not entirely, eliminated. "What we are looking for is the most efficient and painless way to get people in their proper areas," Registrar Brooks McLeod said. McLeod said the registration process will begin on October 26. Between Oc­ tober 26 and November 13, students are invited by appointment. The closer a student is to graduation, the more priority will be offered to that student. On November 13 a copy of the schedule along with the billing statement, will be placed in students' mailboxes. All registration fees must be mailed in by December 15. When students return on January 12, those who have paid will find a validated receipt and a schedule copy in their mailbox. There will be no need to return to the registration office and the pre-paid student may directly begin class. In the past, students were notified of the registration process commencement and they were promptly sent a schedule of the various classes offered by the university. Along with this they were sent an obscan form and students then selected the desired courses. After this process was thoroughly perfected, there was a one week period where the obscan form was handed in. "People at the counter just checked to see which squares were filled and then to see which courses were in demand," McLeod said. "This was faster in that the form could be returned in a week's time. "The problem in this lay in the fact that 30 percent of the students had in­ complete schedules. A lot of the time people just did not get what they asked for ," he added. Students appeared to have mixed feelings concerning the new system, but they all agreed that the registration process should be more organized. "If they give priority to upperclassmen and are organized, then it should work," Kelly Loebkin said. "The drop/add process needs to be looked at, re-analyzed and revised," Marvin Hozkaday said. He said it is important they discover some method to eliminate people from placing drop-adds. "It's terrible to have to wait in line because of this," he said. If the student does not admit guilt, has a previous record of academic dishonesty or if the faculty member feels the case is exceptionally serious, the matter is referred to the ASU Academic Integrity Board. Student Court Justices and faculty members who are chosen by Faculty Senate comprise the Board. Evidence is entered in behalf of the student and faculty member and the Board deter­ mines guilt or innocence. If the student is found guilty he receives an appropriate sanction from the Hearing Panel. Students have the right to appeal decisions made by the Hearing Panel. "We adapted our system directly from the one at UNCC," Director of the Student Development Center Lee McCaskey said. "It has worked sucessfully over the past years there," ' he added. There are also mixed feelings regar­ ding the new Academic Integrity Policy. "I was disappointed with it because I feel that students have a right to be heard by a court of their peers," SGA President Cary Anne Wolf said. "I think that Student Judiciary was do­ ing a fine job with the Academic In­ tegrity cases." The faculty had reasons for wan­ ting the system to be changed. "We felt that it wasn't being used by faculty or students," Facutly Senate Chairperson Dr. Theresa Early said. "People who say that the pro­ blem lies within the judiciary because it had not been utilized are ignorant of the system," Rules Committee Chairperson Gram Spear said. "Why should students pay for the ignorance of the faculty?" "The system was a fine system in Student Judiciary, but it was not utilized, so that means that there is something wrong," Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Dr. David Mclntire said. "I support the new system." "Until the faculty makes a sincere attempt to educate themselves with the Student Judicial System, 1 am worried that the Academic Integrijy Board will be a sign Hof things to come," Skidmore said.

Also, no injuries to students or staff members were reported. Most of the water and mud damage occurred on the east side of campus where Kraut Creek runs parallel to Rivers Street. Rankin Science Building and Duncan Hall were damaged by mud and water, and the security office and utili­ ty areas above the laundry received minor water damages. Although there were no extensive damages, water caused several problems with the telephone switching systems and the steam systems. According to a release from the ASU News Bureau, the switching systems behind the security office were damaged but Southern Bell installed a line to by-pass the switches and telephone services stayed in operation. Some flooding occurred at the infirmary and a power transformer exploded, but no damages or injuries occurred. Several ASU students march for divestment in Washington.

Appalachian Photo by Jimmy Culgnard The old spirit bell in front of the I.G. Greer building. "Carolina has its fountain, NC State has its bell tower, Wake Forest has its chapel, and now ASU will have a spirit bell," remarked Gram Spear, a sophomore Economics major from Kinston. "The spirit bell will give the students something to call their own. It will in turn raise spirits and give students a sense of pride in ASU," he added. Spear, along with Rich Fitzgerald, a sophomore accounting major from Atlanta, and Kirsten Schoonmaker a sophomore special education major, feel so strongly about the spirit bell that each contributed $50 towards the cause. The campaign to bring back the bell started at an SGA meeting cabinet workshop last summer. "It was brought up at the meeting that ASU's campus was in need of some type of symbol to make the students proud of the university," said SGA Ad­ ministrative Assistant Brian Groh. Brian Groh and Patti Caulder, a senior public relations major, then took the idea to Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Dave Mclntire. "When considering the bell, it was brought to our attention that bells have always been used to signify hap­ piness: weddings the end of wars, etc.," Groh said.. "The spirit bell will give the students something to call their own. It will in turn raise spirits and give students a sense of pride in ASU." Gram Spear Rules Committee Chairperson There have been two bells in the history of ASU. One of the bells went up in 1937 outside the old men's gym­ nasium. Currently it sits beside the Administration Building. The other bell was part of Watauga Academy and went down with the building when it burned. Traditionally, the bells were rung after an athletic vic­ tory. "The spirit bell the SGA has in mind is an A-3 cast bronze bell that is made in the Netherlands by Elijibouts Company. It's a triple A quality bell," Groh said. "The bell will be rung manually after football games to let the students know that the Moun­ taineers have brought home another victory." "SGA feels it's a good time to rally the students for support since this will be the golden anniversary year of the first spirit bell," Groh said. Groh and SGA Legislative Assis­ tant Jeff Merritt, along with other members of SGA are heading up the publicity and fundraising for the bell. The fundraising drive started last year and $2300 of the $3600 goal has been collected. In reference to the cost of the bell, Groh said, "We realize it's a lot of money, but the Spirit Bell is something that will be here forever, through Boone winters and all." "A proposed location for the bell is beside the Belk Library. There will be a plaque on the structure with the name of the Greek and non-Greek organization that raises the most money for the bell," said Groh. SGA has experienced good fortune while raising money for the spirit bell. After ASU's first home football game against James Madison, the Spongetones, who were supposed to play at an outdoor concert, were rain­ ed out and played for free at H'APPY's. The concert brought in $1,000 and the money went to the spirit bell. The total cost to have the spirit bell installed is $14,000. It is predicted that the project will be completed this spring. "SGA has certainly not dragged its feet, once they reach their goal to raise part of the money, we've looked at it carefully and the ASU Founda­ tion has agreed that they will finish the job," said Chancellor John Thomas. "We congratulate SGA and the en­ tire student body for their effort. It's an exciting project and it comes at a great time for the university, this spirit bell can become a great focal point for the campus," added Chancellor Thomas. "Speaking on behalf of SGA, I'd like to thank Mr. Randy Kelly, Direc­ tor of Programming, Chancellor John , Thomas, and the vice chancellors for their strong, con­ tinuous support of this project,"Groh stated. '61Homecoming Queen calls Boone home Memories fireproof while tangibles burn By AMEE SMITH Appalachian Staff Writer "It was an enormous surprise. I had never considered it, but becoming Homecoming Queen gave me a sense of confidence that I had not had before. It also gave me an intensified sense of belonging to the institution," explained Tolbert Nance, Ap­ palachian's 1961 Homecoming Queen. The selection process was different in 1961 from what is is now. In 1961, the A (athlete's) Club members each nominated girj and voted on them. "Gene Styles was the lunatic that nominated me. He was a football player who I really didn't know that well, just from afar. It was really a surprise," Nance said. Nance graduated from East Mecklenburg High School in Charlotte and attended ASU three years before transferring to AtlanticChristian to get her degree. Later, she returned to ASU to get her masters in English. She presently teaches English at Watauga High School and is married to Larry Nance, ASU's Personnel Director, who in 1962 was the student body president. They have a 24 year old son. "I don't have one favorite memory of Appalachian, but rather a warm feeling. I remember how close we were. There were about 3,300 of us then and everyone knew one another and you said 'hello' to everyone you met. You shared in everyone's joys and sorrows. I remembered when I was a freshman the president of the university Dr. Flemmons said 'Welcome to the Appalachian family.' I thought it was a gimic the first time 1 heard it, but when 1 heard it a week later I believed it. We really were a family." Tolbert recalled. "I lived in Last dorm and was in­ volved in dorm activities and The Rhododendron. I was too busy trying to get good grades to be involved in much more," Nance explained. "I think ASU has changed in terms of size and academic direction. When I was there it was Appalachian State Teacher's College and everyone who graduated went into education, but now there are all sorts of educational opportunities. 1 love Appalachian now as I did then," Nance said, "but See QUEEN Page 20 By JOHN L.

The smouldering shell of the Ad Building flashed upon the glowing television screen. A reporter was say­ ing, "Today in Boone..." Fire burns away tangibles; it cannot consume memories. This thought opened a circuit to a series of images and ideas programmed indelibly into my brain. As my internal video tape began to roll, I saw myself, a recently dis­ charged Air Force enlisted man, climbing the steps of the administra­ tion building on a sunlit July morning in 1955. Faces younger than mine greeted me as I passed those columns supporting the expansive portico. I returned the greetings and then, encouraged by the welcome 1 had received, walked to the office of Herman Eggers to complete the ad­ mission forms. Before the morning had ended, I was a student at Appalachian State Teachers College. Because of my majors, English and history, I was to spend most of my college days in the Ad Building, a structure already outmoded by the mid fifties but venerable and comfor­ table except on days when the winds from Rich Mountain seemed to descend straight from the polar cap. Within the walls now charred and skeletal I did not find answers to everything I wanted to know but did discover a process of thought, a body of facts, a love of learning and teaching. The images impressed upon my mind record, of course, a personal history of the days I spent within the walls of the Ad Building, but I believe my memories are typical enough to reveal something of the place that the old structure has in the minds of thousands of Appalachian .stuc.ents, 1 say this realizing that I know only by hearsay why the Ad Building had See FIREPROOF Page 20 English Department enlightened byGraydon and Daisy Eggers By APRIL GRIFFIN Assistant Features Editor Appalachian Photo by 1962 Rhododendron When speaking to Dr. and Mrs. Graydon Eggers one is instantly drawn to this likeable and illustrious couple. Dr. Graydon Eggers was born in 1903 and grew up in the Watauga area. He remembers Boone as a primitive place with no indoor plumbing and bad roads. There were only two phones in the entire community. Transportation was at best rudimentary. Horseback and buggies were the mode of the day. Boone's citizens were introduced to the automobile by a Lenoir resident who "took the whole community for a ride," said Graydon. He earned his diploma from Appalachian Training School in 1924 and later a B.A. degree from Carson-Newman College in 1927. Eggers earned an A.M. and Ph.D. from Duke University in 1932 and 1938, respectively. He studied as an Austin Scholar at Harvard University during the 1932-33 school year where he focused his studies on Shakespeare. Graydon began his eventful career at ASU in 1927. He served as Chairman of the English Department from 1946-1969. Aside from his heavy teaching duties, he found time to publish such scholarly works as a translation of "The Owl and the Nightingale" and "The King's Quair." He did his doctoral dissertation on "The Social Novel in England, 1832-1890." Graydon also became the first football coach at ASU in 1928. Later he served as an assistant coach. Graydon met Miss Daisy Williams accidentally while teaching an English class she attended. The original teacher of the course, Mr. Norton, had died of a heart attack while teaching that very class. Daisy, originally from Mountain Park, NC, was a bit apprehensive of the stern professor, but enjoyed his class. Graydon was a hard grader, "but the better students stuck it out," Daisy said. During her undergraduate years at ASU, Daisy was an outstanding scholar and participated in many student organizations. These organizations included: See EGGERS Page 20 Dr. and Mrs. Graydon P.

There are about seventy-five members, with a chairperson in charge of each coun­ cil. The councils' function independently while still being a part "Every semester, we try to get Jimmy Buffet.

This council is in charge of Yofest, Moun­ taineer Talent Search, Homecoming activities, College Bowl Competition, Snowfest and other special programs and activities. Karen Nichols is chairperson of the Concerts Council. The members of this council bring entertaining bands to ASU. "We believe A.P.P.S. gives students important experience in pro­ gramming and producing shows," said Nichols. She added, "Since students plan activities for other students, it is easier for A.P.P.S. to discover what events the majority of people at ASU would be interested in." Jim Lane is chairperson of the Films Council. This council picks the different movies shown at ASU including the annual showing of the Rocky Horror Picture Show at H'Appy's on Halloween. Kim Wall is chairperson of the Stage Shows Council. The Stage Shows Council members are responsi­ ble for choosing the bands, come­ dians, and setting up Saturday Nite Live dances at H'Appy's. The Club Shows Council's chairperson is Kim Greene. This council is responsible for planning events in The Pub, and the "Ball-onthe-Mall." Some of their programs include Local Band Night, theme parties, and nightclub acts. A.P.P.S. is funded by a portion of the students' activity fees. The councils present different events at different times. Some coun­ cils have several programs a week, and others take weeks to plan and prepare their events. There is always a show, movie, concert, or special event to go to, however. A.P.P.S. tries to ensure there are always activities going on at ASU. Randy Kelly, manager of H'Appy's, works closely with the Appalachian Popular Programming Society. He helps set un the dances, shows, and other events that take place at H'Appy's. Kelly finds out who's available and bids for them to appear. But sometimes, things don't always work out. "Every semester, we try to get Jimmy Buffet. Last April, we had our offer in for Buffet, but we were out bid by James Madison. That weekend it snowed two feet," Kelly said. He added that renovations on the gym are in the planning stages. The new plans would allow the club to accommodate more people, and that would mean major shows for ASU. H'Appy's is also trying to plan very £ special events for Homecoming. The club has featured in the past The s Chairman of the Board, the number ' one party group of the bst decade and this yeai is no exception.

Are we having fun yet? Maybe... ? Dionne Warwick gave performance Here's a familiar and famous face who once performed at ASU back when the school was still Appalachian State Teachers College. The following story appeared in the January 26, 1964 edition of The Appalachian. Dionne Warwick, internationally famous singing star, will appear on the Appalachian Campus February 2, at 8 p.m. in the Broome-Kirk Gym. There will be no cost to students, but there will be a charge for graduates and faculty. Miss Warwick first received public acclaim with her recording of Don't Make Me Over. She has since record­ ed such songs as the ballad, Anyone Who Had A Heart, Wishin' and Hopin', Walk On By, and Who Can I Turn To. From a musical background, Dionne Warwick has studied music since the age of six, has sung in various choirs and has attended the Hart College of Music of the Univer­ sity of Hartford, Connecticut. accomplished pianist and singer. On a successful European tour, Miss War­ wick was personally introduced at the Olympia Theatre in Paris by Marlene Dietrich and was star of the 1964 Can­ nes Television and Film Festival. In May she appeared on all of the major television shows in Great Bri­ tain where her recording of Walk On By reached the select top ten in an era of dominance by groups such as the Beatles and the Searches. In her Euro­ pean tours she has appeared in every major country this side of the Iron Curtain. The National Association of Record Merchandisers voted Dionne the "Most Popular Female Vocalist of 1964." She has recorded four well-received albums which include PRESENTING DIONNE WARWICK, ANYONE WHO HAD A HEART, MAKE WAY FOR DIONNE WARWICK, and THE SENSITIVE SOUND OF DIONNE WARWICK. Entertainment to Diversions: all there And then came 1983. 1983 brought the onset of something new in The Appalachian, the Enter­ tainment section. Editor-in-chief for 1983 Sandy Walbrol started this section °f the paper to cover cultural and popular performing arts events. Looking back through The Appalachians from 1983, the entertainment sec­ tion is small and somewhat uncertain. As the year goes by, you can see the sec­ tion expand and take on some definite characteristics. Editor Jack Groce II had a tendency to lean more towards film than theatre, and towards the urjUsual rather than the expected. In 1984 the Entertainment section began running only on Thursdays, which is how it continues today. The section has found itself, and now looks grownUP and complete. Groce is still the editor, and you can see his influence. The t0P headline of the first Entertainment section of this year (Thursday, August 30, 1984) reads, "The coming of Prince: Baby he's a superstar." The second issue's section covers the movie "Bolero," and has an article on "Victor/Vic­ toria" playing in Farthing. Again, the emphasis is on film. Consistent throughout the year is "Happenings" the bottom of the page devoted to a mini-calendar of entertainment around ASU. Everything looks professional. Looking through editor Robert Hawkins 1985 section is a different feeling a'together. Here the emphasis is more on cultural events. Even the page design 'ooks different. There are still the movie reviews that the 1984 section centered °n. but the style of the films has changed. The theatre holds a much bigger Dart in the scheme of things than it did in 1984. If I had to pick a favorite year in the Entertainment section, it would have to be 1986. This was the year that the name of the section changed from "Enter'ainment" to "Diversions." Jack Groce II from 1983 and 1984 is back, along with editor Colby Caldwell. This section is fun, different and very creative. A8ain it's emphasis is on film; the pages are covered with reviews. I like the actUa' page design, it really attracts attention. Advisor to Student Publications Kttthryn Knight said of the 1986 section, "It's far more diverse, with some ex'ternely animated ideas with graphics and copy." She captured the very essence of the 1986 Diversions section with these words. . As for 1987, it's still in the developing stages. As of yet, only three Diver­ sions sections have run. I hope to develop ideas and give this year's Diversions section it's own distinct flavor. 1983: The year of the sequel By JACK GROCE II 1983 Appalachian Entertainment Editor If one word could be used to describe 1983's movie scene thus far, that word would have to be dull. Except for a couple of true film highlights such as George Lucas' smashing Return of the Jedi and the totally surprising Risky Business, good flicks have been sparse in 1983. Most of this year's few good movies have been sandwiched in between a load of sequels and cheesy teen-age sex comedies. Hollywood has absolutely stagnated the market with no more than 10 sequels this year (a run down includes Sting II, Psycho II, Jedi, Octopussy, Superman III, Porky's II—The Next Day, Staying Alive, Jaws 3-D, Curse of the Pink Panther, and Smokey and the Bandit 3; 12 if you count two remakes, Breathless and The Twilight Zone—the Movie.) Some of these films were pretty good but the majority of these flicks proved as always that the original is usually the best. The bad part about having to suffer through this year of the sequel is that 1983 has been lacking in new and/or provacative film entertainment. These sequels, and the constant flow of movies like Porky's II, Spring Break, Private School, or any of the countless other teen sex features, are stuff that we've seen over and over again—the same old boring stuff. And that doesn't even consider the fact that if studio big shots can figure out a way to repackage these products, then we are going to see these same old ideas done again and again. Perhaps, if people would stop shelling out money for these tried and true retreads, maybe Hollywood would liven up and offer some fresh and new, even intelligent, film enter­ tainment. But with only four more months left in this year, 1983 will probably go down as an extremely disappointing year at the movies. Times can't be that bad though. At least Hollywood hasn't announced Porky's III.. .yet. Upcoming films worth watching for (that might even brighten up this dismal year a bit) are: Woody Allen's much acclaimed Zelig: Never Say Never Again, another James Bond flick with Sean Connery back in action as 007, instead of wimpy Roger Moore; Francis Ford Coppola's Rumble Fish with Matt Dillon; Terms of Endearment with Shirley MacLaine, Jack Nicholson, and Debra Winger; Daniel, directed by Sydney Lummet (Network) and star­ ring Timothy Hutton; and Brain­ storm, Natalie Wood's long awaited last motion picture. On the Hollywood news front: Bo Derek's next film extravaganza, directed by her husband John, is Bolero, which will probably acquire an X rating from the Motion Picture Association of America. Dan O'Bannon, who co-wrote the classic sci-fy thriller Alien, will write the script for Space Vampires, based on Colin Wilson's novel. Tobe Hooper (Poltergeist, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre) has been tapped to direct. Dino de Laurentis will produce Stephen King's best selling Firestarter for the big screen. The cast thus far includes Burt Lancaster, Louise Fletcher, Drew Barrymore, David Keith, and Heather Locklear. (Source Variety.) Best bets for movie entertainment this weekend are Risky Business and Altered States. Risky Business, now playing at the Chalet Theater, is writer/director Paul Brickman's very funny and very honest look at the coming of age in the 80's. Tom Cruise stars as a young man learning how to deal with life in general through his association with a manipulative prostitute named Lana (Rebecca de Mornay). Risky Business succeeds where all of the other recent teen com­ edies have failed because it laughs with the pains of g wing up and not at them; the film never succumbs to the adolescent buffoonery of films like Porky's. Brickman'c film floats across the screen with a dreamlike clarity, while Cruise and de Mornay both become quite memorable for their parts. Risky Business is a fine example of pop filmmaking, and very definitely, one of the best pictures of this year. Altered States was also one of the better pictures of 1980, and will be showing at Farthing Auditorium this Sunday (September 4) as the second movie in this fall's entertainment film series. Ken Russell's dazzling movie offers a trip without the use of artificial stimulants. William Hurt, in his film debut, stars as a crazed scien­ tist who is obsessed viith the idea of what man's ultimate truth is... his ultimate consciousness. With the help of a depravation tank and some hallucinogenic substances, Hurt finds his answers but starts to lose hirnself. Altered States is basically a wild variation of Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde. Author Paddy Chayefsky who wrote the screenplay based on his novel, asked to have his name taken off the film's credits because he thought the film distorted his book. That's too bad because Altered Stat is a frighteningly good flick; a think­ ing man's horror story. H'Appy's was a dream come true By LARA WRAY Appalachian Staff Writer Life before H'APPY's. It's hard for current ASU students to imagine there wasn't always a H'APPY's with its Thursday, Friday and Saturday night programs. What else would anyone do on a weekend night? Yet this was the problem fac­ ing students returning to ASU in the fall of 1983. What was there to do? The students discovered that most of their previously frequented nightclubs in Blowing Rock (Yes—Blowing Rock. Boone was stm a dry town at this time) were shuk'ng down. The only alternative place tr gather, dance, and socialize was the Student Activity Room in the Student jnion. The pro­ blem with this was thtu this Activity Room could be reserved only by recognized campus organizations It was clear that Boone needed a place for its students. The proposal was made to turn the old Winn Dixie into a nightclub. This plan became a reality largely due to the efforts of Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs David Mclntire and Director of Com­ plementary Education Lee McCaskey. A contest was held to name the new ASU nightclub. Mitzi Kragg submit­ ted the winning entry, and what was once a Winn Dixie was now christen­ ed H'APPY's.

University Theatre changes over the years By AMY CARPENTER Appalachian Staff Writer Setting: A dimly lit, antiquated theatre. Dr. Frank Mohler stands over his desk adding the finishing touches on a miniature version of the set of a play soon to undergo production. Mean­ while, Martha Marking busies herself selecting costumes for the actors. Such a scenario could easily be tak­ ing place today, within the heart of ASU Theatre - Chapell Wilson Hall. Both Dr. Mohler and Martha Mark­ ing share a common bond—they have added great improvement to the technical and design areas of the University Theatre. Also, neither of them were members of the ASU facul­ ty five years ago. Dr. Mohler joined the ASU theatre staff four years ago as set and lighting designer. Since then, Martha Marking has added her contribution to the theatre as costume designer. However, a few new faces aren't the only changes the University Theatre has undergone in recent years. With the completion of the Broyhill Music Building four years ago, IG Greer auditorium was opened up for use in the expansion of the theatre. Student directed one-act plays are now being presented in the Laura shows her glass animals in a scene from The Glass Menagerie. Greer Arena Theatre. Each year the University Theatre attempts to adhere with a format of one classical play, one modern play, a dinner theatre and one mainstage pro­ duction. Last year the University Theatre and the Opera Workshop presented their first joint produc­ tion—The Mikado. This year, the theatre will house a production by the Opera Workshop and the School of Music—The Magic Flute. The University Theatre will assist with its production. In addition, the theatre has become more involved with the community in recent years and has also expanded in the area of children's theatre. According to Dr. Susan Cole, who has been Director of the University Theatre for the past 13 years, the basis for selection of plays to be presented by the University centers around those works that are both ar­ tistic pieces and of interest to the stu­ dent audience. This year perfor­ mances have included The Impor­ tance of Being Earnest, Summertree, and a selection of one-act plays. The semester will end with Wait Until Dark by Frederick Knott. It will be performed on November 18-23 at 8 p.m. Members of the Missouri Repertory Theatre. �THE APPALACHIAN, HOMECOMING '87 Homecoming '87 SPORTS Ex-All-Americas Hackett, Settle wooing N( MIKE SMITH lachian Sports Editor Appalao an State football has made great strides in the establish­ ment of its program. For the last three seasons, the Mountaineers have been serious con­ tenders for the Southern Conference championship, and took the crown in 1986. These giant steps can be easily deciphered by checking ASU's record for the past 2Zi seasons. Coach Sparky Woods has accumulated a 20-7-1 record in that time span. Football programs can also be judged by their production of players who go on to the National Football League. In that category, the Apps have improved, especially in the last two years. Each of the last two years, an ASU alumnus has worked his way into the NFL, ranking him among the world's best at his skill. Linebacker Dino Hackett, out of Greensboro's Southern Guilford High School, was a second-round draft choice of the Kansas City Chiefs in 1986. Hackett put Appalachian State on the NFL map, clearing trails for Mountaineers to come. In Hackett's rookie season, his teammates voted him the winner of the Mack Lee Hill Award as the Chief's top rookie. He led his squad in tackles with 140, the most by a Chief since 1981. Hackett stepped in as a starter on the first day of training camp and quickly established himself as the team's stopper for his intense and aggressive style of play at inside linebacker. as in Kansas City, Hackett was known for his kamikaze-style of play. The Apps added another NFL member this year when John Settle was named to the Atlanta Falcons' 45-man roster. Settle was passed over during the 1987 draft, but auctioned his wares to Atlanta via the free agent route. Settle battled at least seven other running backs for a position on the Falcon roster and his determination paid off. Ruffin household Rockingham High acquaintances of L,' saying, "He's 0n, l 1 ve ever met." See HACKETT AND si A key to Settle's successful training camp was the preparation he received while at ASU. Some of his stiffest competition came from backs such as Larry Emery of Wisconsin and Steve Griffin of Clemson, both of whom were subjected to a higher level of competition in the Big 10 Conference and the Atlantic Coast Conference. "I think ASU did a great job of preparing me," Settle said. "In the combine camps, the drills were basically fundamental. I was already accustomed to that because (ASU running back) Coach (Donnie) Kirkpatrick had already introduced us to that. The former App was tabbed as a Pro Bowl alternate and, in Dick Enberg's words, "became a folk hero in Kansas City." Alumnus Dino Hacketl of Kansas City eyes an opponent ball carrier the SC. In his senior season last year, he rushed for 1,897 yards and 21 touchdowns. Now as a Falcon, Settle realizes he must watch his ways since he is in the public's eye. That shouldn't be hard for a man raised strictly in a religious "I don't feel like the other running backs had an advantage over me go­ ing into camp. A lot of guys played a back-up role and didn't play as much as I did. We were exposed to teams like Clemson and NC State and we did pretty well." During his days at ASU, Hackett earned I-AA All-America status for his senior campaign when he racked up 200 tackles, a school record. Just At ASU, Settle established 31 school and 19 conference records. He accumulated 4,645 career rushing yards, the most ever at ASU and in John Settle made the Atlanta roster as a free t take advantage of NFLPA strike By MIKE SMITH Appalachian Sports Edllor When opportunity knocks, one had better open the door and step through. That is the attitude of six former Appalachian State football players who took advantage of the NFL strike to sport NFL uniforms as replace­ ment players. Darryl Russell (Denver), Russell Payne (Denver), Jimmy Armstrong (Dallas), Tommy Dawkins (Pitt­ sburgh), Mark Royals (St. Louis), and Struggy Smith (Atlanta) failed to stick with squads in the preseason, but are trying to impress coaches with their performance in the replacement games. "It's a job," said Russell, a defen­ sive back. "You've got to take that opportunity." Russell and Payne were cut previously by the Broncos. But when When 1 ommy Dawkins (99) played for Ihe Apps Jie^was constantly in the quarterback's face. the NFL players decided to strike, they took the chance. 'I thought about it for a couple of days," Russell said. "It's different from training camp. You're living day-to-day. You don't look ahead. In training camp, you at least knew when cuts were." Not all veterans decided to picket. Some, such as Steve Watson, are playing anyway. "The veterans treat us like any teammate," Russell said. "They prac­ tice like nothing is going on." There are major differences bet­ ween the football he played at Ap­ palachian State and the NFL. "I think ASU prepared me pretty well for the pros," he said. "I'm not used to the bump-and-run, man-to­ man defenses we play. But as far as attitude and fundamentals, ASU prepared me pretty well." For Smith, the decision to play for the Falcons in the midst of a strike was easy. "It was an opportunity," Smith said. "I jumped right on it. As a deputy sheriff in Charlotte, I had nothing to lose. I was still in shape from my tryout with St. Louis. "The coaches stressed during team meetings to keep the fire burning. If we impress them enough, we may get to stay, especially if they increase the roster size to 49 from 45." Smith was placed in a peculiar situation since former ASU teammate John Settle is on strike in Atlanta. "There's been no communication between John and myself. I saw him picketing one day, but I haven't talk­ ed to him. We don't have that much eye-toeye contact with the striking players. We have a private hotel (Falcon Inn), so there's no reason for us to leave." Smith acquired a leave of absence from the Sheriff's department for his time as a replacement player.

For the 26th season, William J. onrad is the home for Appalachian |tate football. Saturday, Coach Sparky Woods |ads his troops into a Southern Con­ ference clash against UThattanooga. But this game •presents more than an important Seho, inference game. It's Homecoming in ie Blue Ridge mountains. The first Homecoming in Conrad allowed the students to go one step further with their Homecoming parade. t Students built floats and we had a parade through town," Jones said. But since we had a track inside Conrad, we could take the floats in and bring them around the track." H He " The 1987 Homecoming will be the _ 6th event in the friendly confines of ^Tt]j ;onrad Stadium, named after the nrmer Chairman of the Trustees oard. The Mountaineers have icsted a 16-7-2 record on Homecomig dates in Conrad. The initial celebration for the |lumni in Conrad came in the 1962 ason's third home game. Then a kember of the NAIA's Carolinas ponference, ASU played Catawba to I 21-21 tie. Jim Jones, currently ChairmSl of kSU's Accounting Department, |emembers the day fondly. 'The first Homecoming was one of liose beautiful, October days," Jones aid. "They said we would \ever fill it (Conrad). But ve filled on the first lomecoming game. That's vhen we knew we were on |he right track." The formation of Conrad Stadium from a hilly bank of trees on the ASU campus brought about conveniences impossible at the old park that seated only 2,500 people. "We were able to accommodate many more people and had a lot more parking," Jones said. "Before, peo­ ple were parking on the street, but Conrad had its own parking. "They said we would never fill it (Conrad). But we filled on the first Homecoming game. That's when we knew we were on the right track." That track was muddied at first for ASU when Conrad opened her gates for its first game September 15, 1962 against Emory & Henry. The field was muddy also, because Boone's infamous rain had flooded the field to ruin the Mountaineers' party. The gloom must have spred to the App gridders as well. Emory & Henry downed ASU 6-3 to spoil Conrad's opener. Since then, the Mountaineers have won 15 of their 25 home openers. ASU has fared better after Conrad's initial season. For 25 seasons and a fraction of another, the Apps stand 83-39-5 (67.3 percent). —Jim Jones Homecoming in Conrad presented a marked change from tig previous year when the Apps, nder Coach Jim Duncan, took their ootball on the road, even for home antes. In the 1961 season, ASU scheduled s four home contests in Asheville, hickory, Charlotte and Lenoir. Prior !?ni| o that year, the Mountaineer football ames were held in a grass park that dwin Duncan Hall now stands on. "In '61, we had to bus the students o the games," said Jones, the athletic ^department's business manager in , g962. "We collected athletic fees, so e felt we owed students free admison and transportation. For the enoir-Rhyne game in Charlotte, we J ass ff He is" The Mountaineers were kind enough to grant Conrad her first undefeated season in 1963, defeating Newberry, Western Carolina, LenoirRhyne and Carson-Newman for a 4-0 mark. The 1976 and 1985 seasons also gave undefeated home seasons to Conrad. While the football teams continue to be successful, including ASU's first-ever Southern Conference crown in 1986, there is little comparison between the Conrad Stadium that is the setting for the 1987 Homecoming and the Conrad Stadium built in 1962. Conrad Stadium as it appeared for Homecoming '62 in its first year as the home of the Apps. To those who have not visited the ASU campus since the opener against Emory & Henry, Conrad would resemble nothing of her original self. The first major change came in 1970 when ASU decided to install artificial turf over the grass field. That made Conrad the first football facility in North or South Carolina to play on fake grass. The original surface was Poly-turf, while the latest installments have been. Astroturf. The last replacement came in the summer of 1984. Owens Field House was a small, one-story building in 1962. Since then, the field house has more than tripled its original size. It now houses the athletic administration and foot­ ball coaches' offices, along with train­ ing and locker room facilities. And Conrad herself has undergone a facelift. She initially had 10,000 per­ manent seats. Following the 1978 season, the west side increased by 8,000 seats, almost doubling capacity. The east side was originally the home side, but administrators decided to enlarge the west side because the set­ ting sun would shine into the lenses of cameras shooting out of an east-side press box. In the first game after renovation, 17,124 fans turned out for ASU's 35-27 win over Western Carolina.

The time is ripe; the pro­ fessor can no longer avoid the subject cience. of sperm whales. He begins: Students feel that they never get to make their own decisions, that they are constantly told what to do, and always shown what is right and "Melville uses the sperm whale for what is wrong. Not only are they told and reminded, but the threat of a specific reason—" punishment comes with the "suggestions." At the mention of the magic word, According to the rules, a student at Appalachian should never have twenty-seven students suck in their to make a decision concerning whether to drink or not, whether to go breath.

"Sperm is the symbol of male fer that any person certainly should make a decision on at some time or tility—" another. If the student doesn't learn what such things are "all about" "Uh oh, get ready." while he is still in college, it will only delay his growth as he discovers them later. The professor then coughs and He is faced with such problems as whether to go to the horror movie chokes as he relates the difference or to play ping pong; whether to sit in the bookstore or go to Parkside; between male and female sex symbols whether to play cards or Chinese checkers in the student lounge; in literature.

There has been much comment this year on the lack of intellectual activity at Appalachian, and just as much comment on the lack of ANY activity. The problem is that the students are dissatisfied and discontent, and no person can do his best work or think creatively, By J. RKID POTTER 1966 Features hdilor vhen he is unhappy. Appalachian is a big school; it is growing; it is a good school. If it This past week, during a conversa­ :ontinues to progress, some changes must be made.

The difficult it is to overcome the problem of tenure?" This was a polite way of tudents at Appalachian are restless. They are waiting. And some Ivy telling me that due to the fact that -eague Castro or Motubu or Lumumba will come. some of our "educators" have been BLOOM COUNTY ends of her long hair that drapes over her shoulders and carresses her bosom. The dumpy blonde in the first row is thumbing madly through her book. The young man in the third row is intent upon trimming his finger nails. The rest of the class is staring at the professor feigning attention, or else they are doing almost anything to avoid meeting his gaze. Meanwhile, the poor prof muddles along praying for the end of the hour. Students, this is not the way! Where is that "savoir faire" we hear so much about? Do you think Humphrey Bogart or Hubert Humphrey ever smirked in the face of a delicate situation? Of course they didn't and you shouldn't either. Remember, their charm and sophistication had to be acquired, just as you must acquire yours. There are two simple ground rules that must be mastered if you are to conduct yourself properly during embarrassing lectures. After these basic ones are under control, you may feel free to vary them in any manner you choose. 1 Look thoroughly and complete­ ly bored with the subject matter. If you can convince the prof that this is all "old hat" to you, then perhaps you can convince yourself of this as well. (Convincing yourself is always the hardest part.) 2. Look thoroughly and complete­ ly engrossed in the subject mat­ ter. If you can convince the prof that you see sex as something pure and beautiful, perhaps you can convince yourself. (Again, the hardest part.) "Class, first let me commend you on your conduct in class on Monday. In the past, some of my classes have been too immature to intelligently discuss the part that sexual imagery plays in this novel. You, on the other hand, managed to conduct yourselves beautifully." To himself, however, the prof mutters, "Damn kids, they think they're all so smart. They take this all so calmly and I'm a nervous wreck." (An attitude like this is dangerous; thus you must be careful not to overdo your nonchalance.) Half the students in the classroom sit forward on the edge of their chairs, and the other half slouch comfortably in their seats listening to the lecturer. "Some authorities insist that the relationship between Queequeg and Ishmael is not exactly on the 'up and up,' if you know what I mean." (The prof winks.) The students comprehend his meaning immediately. Fifteen pairs of eyes remain glued on the speaker, while twelve pairs of eyes are halfclosed as if to say, "So, what of it?" "Mention is made many times of Queequeg and Ishmael being wed—" A hand shoots up, and it's owner, an attractive red-head, offers, "Remember the time that they're squeezing sperm and their hands meet!" One of the fellows belonging to the"bored crowd" half-yawns, "What about their always sleeping together? This sounds fishy to me." About this time the only one in the classroom who is feeling at all uneasy is the professor who is convinced that he has created monsters. No longer is he able to take fiendish delight in tor­ turing his students with weird sex imagery; they now supplement his lec­ ture with their own findings. Once you have impressed your first prof, your confidence will be buoyed, and you'll find that you'll undoubtably be able to go on to greater These two rules, as paradoxical as they appear, complement each other perfectly. Let us once again observe a classroom in which students, wellversed in these techniques, are main­ taining their "cool" during another lecture on Moby Dick. The professor . hei-f^ts -°-f - sfi«>aL. qncjetstaadiag; begins: perhaps even master botany. Aside from the aforementioned cardinal rules, here are some clues to look for that will help you in picking out sexual symbols on your own: 1. All sticks, poles, church spires, lollipops, tree trunks (in short, all upright objects) are phallic symbols. This applies to all books from classic Alice in Wonderland to the great American novel, Peyton Place. 2. Any gathering of more than three persons undoubtedly represents a sub-conscious desire on their part to partake in a sex orgy. This applies especial­ ly to affairs where food is being served, as in the Mad Hatter's tea party and Macbeth's banquet scene. The dinner guests, of course, are sublimating their desire by eating. 3. The various forms of the verbs "lie" and "feel" are to be taken in their most vulgar sense. 4. Ail relationships between members of this same sex, as well as all parent-child relation­ ships are to be interpreted as either homosexual or incestuous. This includes Huck Finn's relationship with Jim and Tom, as well as Hamlet's rela­ tionship with his mother. You can have a lot of fun with this point as you expand it to fit famous real-life relationships (like Robert Frost's "friendship" with Edward Thomas); or you can start observing the actions of your friends to see if they fit into a "strange" pattern. (This could really start you thinking.) In conclusion, practicing these helpful hints will prepare you for life outside the classroom. In a world in which an inpenetrable facade is a prerequisite for a successful career, you must start early to develop a cool college classroom is the place to start. A big chill for education department by Berke Breathed around so long, it is almost impossible to get rid of them. For most, it really isn't necessary to explain why those "second floor educators" are part of Appalachian's Agony. But to some, who have either lost contact with reality or who have never been exposed directly to the situation, an explanation is perhaps in order. The typical 300 level education class is boring, impractical, ex­ asperating and a waste of the students' time. The classes must be boring or else the students would not be constantly looking at their watch­ es, doodling on paper, looking out the window at Mother Nature, preparing for other classes, yawning, or putting dots inside all the letter O's in the textbooks. It's just the same old song and dance, so why not? Impracticality is another character­ istic of these classes. Instead of con­ centrating on a practical approach to teaching, the central theme is almost always the philosophy of education, what to do in ideal situations (as if all future situations will be ideal), when the first school was founded and by whom. How do these topics aid the prospective teacher in preparing for his future profession. They don't. The usual procedure in most col­ leges is to cut a class every now and then when one receives no stimulation or challenge from it. This is not the case in our own beloved education department. The second floor educators are so dull and drab that they go to great pains in making sure their classes are made aware of the fact that low class attendance will result in a low grade for the course. These people's methods and approach are so bad that they must wave their little brown grade book and use it as a means to terrorize the students into coming to hear their meaningless bab­ ble. This is truly exasperating and a total waste of time. There is also a certain inexcusable tragedy in regard to our second floor educators. It has been said by some that this department is run on the level of a kindergarten. This certainly seems the case when this institution offers a B.S. in a certain field and then the people in that field can't even get placed when the time comes to do student teaching. The second floor educators are most certainly a part of Appala­ chian's Agony. Some remain only because they have become so firmly entrenched in the second floor rut that they are immovable. It is very ironical that in spite of this situation, Appalachian has the reputation foi being such a great teachers college. But how long will this last? Not longfor a reputation based upon fiction will eventually crumble as the "Educational Myth" of Appalachian is revealed. Jesus Christ, truth or fraud? By CYNTHIA BARRIER Appalachian Staff Wrltar Since the Bible was written two thousand years ago, there have been endless rigorous attempts by scholars, clergymen, atheists, agnostics and mankind, in general, to either prove or disprove its content. Is every word to be taken literally? Without doubt? Is it all a myth—a book of didactic fables? Should one believe parts of it and not others? Historians have proved that the history recorded in the Bible is in ac­ cordance with many other historic records. In'view of this fact upon what grounds does one have a right to doubt the remainder? The biggest question of all is basically "Who was Christ?" Did his miracles actually occur as such, or can logical explanations be found for them? Or maybe the witnesses of these miracles were so convinced, perhaps under influence of hypnotic persuasion, that they only thought they saw those phenomena occur. By logical reasoning, Christ had to be one of three things: all that He claimed to be and therefore the Son of God; a lunatic; or a liar. In simpler terms He was divine or He was not. Therefore, one must completely ac­ cept Christ or completely reject Him. There can be no logical division of opinion. If a person accepts Christ according to the Bible, his problems are more or less solved. But those who reject Him have still another decision to make. Was this man a uniquely endowed mortal with superhuman mental abilities? Was He a genius whose thoughts and philosophies were far Special thanks Since its beginning, many people have worked on The Appalachian to make it a national awardwinning paper. Of all these people, there have been some who served as guidance to others; who helped give The Appalachian form and structure. The 1987-88 staff would like to recognize a few of these special people. Their names may seem familiar to many. They served as Editor-in-Chief for this year's Homecoming honored classes. 1981-82 1976-77 1971-72 1966-67 1961-62 ahead of His time? Many psychologists today believe that almost, if not all, illnesses are psychological and can be cured through the mind. Could this be the key—that Jesus understood the ex­ tremities of the subconcious mind, and through this understanding, He was able to heal the crippled and the blind. It would not be difficult for a man such as this, who would certainly be so far beyond the comprehension of average men, to convince them that he was a spiritual being. The next seemingly logical question is this: did Christ consciously deceive His followers thus making Him a liar; or not fully understanding his own powers, did he himself believe that He was the Son of God? Or was He divine?

Tallying of the ballots, 1,340 of them in all, was finished by 8:10 p.m. In the mayoral race, Keeter defeated challenger Gene Wilson 713 to 579 or 55 percent of the vote. Velma Burnley finished first in the race for town council, winning every precinct with a total of 804 votes, or 23 percent. She was followed by Jimmy Smith, with 613 votes, or 17 percent and Clyde Greene, with 542 votes, or 15 percent. Phil Vance who received 452 votes, or 13 percent, could have called for a run off with Clyde Greene, but declined. Bill Rucker received 433 votes, or 12 percent, followed by Tim Wilson with 410 votes or 11 percent and Sheila Yost, who received 316 votes, or 9 percent. Burnley said she looked forward to working with ASU. "Obviously I feel real good," Burnley said. "I look at ASU as being part of the town; I m sorry more of ASU did't turn out to vote." I m real pleased, Smith said. "I'm an ear closer to campus," he said. "I hope to be a good listener, no matter who comes." Both Jimmy Smith and Larry Keeter are ASU faculty members. Fewer student loans available next year (CPS)—As the summer rolled on, Terilynn Sanford began to panic. When the University of Texas junior didn't receive a letter confirming her Guaranteed Student Loan (GSL), as she had the previous two years, she called the financial aid office. This year, they told her, she didn't qualify. "I can't go to school without a student toan," -;he said. After some frustrating maneuver­ ing, San lord finally was approved for a GSL and will continue her educa­ tion this year. Dr. A. Dallas Martin, Jr. of the National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators said as many as 20 percent of the students nationwide who got GSLs in 1986 won't be able to get them for this school year. "There's been no increase in true student aid. This has not been a growth industry. There are actually fewer dollars to go around." Dr. A. Dallas Martin, Jr. The reasons can be found in the new federal Higher Education Act of 1986, most of which is just going into effect this fall. "Those students," Martin said, "must take out more expensive loans, such as parental loans, personal bank loans, or Supplemental Student Loans that come with higher interest rates and begin accruing interest soon after they're issued, compounding the rising cost of college education." University of Nebraska at Omaha financial aid director Phil Shreves said, "This is going to be a tough year for a lot of students." Shreves said thirty-five percent of the UNO students who received GSLs last year won't receive GSLs this year. Of the remaining students only a few will have total eligibility. To determine if a student could get a GSL in the past, financial aid counselors figured in the student's and parent's income, the number of dependents in the student's family and the number of children in that family that were in college. Now the new Higher Education Act requires the counselor to include other money like home values and '"vestments in deciding if the student "eeds a GSL. As a result of adding in the other sources of income to a family's wealth, many families look like they earn too much to qualify for the lowc°st loans. We've had more denials as GSL e 'gibility has gotten tighter," Don Davis of Texas' financial aid office said. The Higher Education Act of 1986 also raised the maximum annual GSL from $2,500 to $4,000. Dan Davenport of the University of Idaho financial aid office said graduate students and older students are particularly hurt by the new requirements. Davenport said income from teaching or research assistant jobs now is added to a student's assets when determining GSL eligibility, reducing or eliminating loans graduate students received in the past. "Nontraditional" students also must declare their spouse's income, also cutting or eliminating loans, he added. Despite the tighter GSL eligiblity requirements, Martin said the finan­ cial aid picture looks fairly favorable, since students still have access to other, though more expensive loans. "We thought we'd see a decrease in total available funds," Davis said. "But there's just as much money, and there are just as many students apply­ ing for aid. We've processed as many, or more, applications as we did last year." "We're funded at the same levels as last year," Davenport added. "Frankly, this is a more stable year than last year," explained Colorado College financial aid Director Rodney Oto. Martin, however, contended that although the U.S. Department of Education continues to appropriate more moftev for student financial aid, students are notTeeeiving as much assistance as they have in the past. Martin said much of the actual dollar increase is used to pay off defaulters' loans. "Changes in aid distribution have created an increasing student indebtedness," Martin said. The Pell Grant program, once the dominant form of federal student assistance, has been slashed. Loans are now the dominant form. "There's been no increase in true student aid," Martin said. "This has not been a growth industry. There are actually fewer dollars to go around." "High-ability students from lowincome families are not being served," Martin continued. "That's a loss of talent we're not providing for. It's unfortunate." Terilynn Sanford almost counted herself as one of the unfortunate students who could't afford college this year. "I was afraid I'd get shut out," she said. With Davis' help, Sanford reapplied and will receive a GSL to continue her schooling. "I'm praying for that check to get here," she said. "I haven't been able to buy books yet 'cause I only have $20 to my name at this point." •r i ujiiiuinj iuii.il i _Jfce Student Publications Council Is now accepting applications for •1 "t" n (iv i .mri Business Manager of TH* 4pp.riacfttm^ for the sprtof Candidates for Editor must have a 2.25 grade point average, ' us ||p be •cations, in room 3: either position- Thursday October 8, 1987 Senate fills Court of Appeals By NICOLE PARSONS Appalachian Staff Writer It was another long meeting for Senate this past Tuesday night as they debated over the University Court of Appeals nominees and a new senate bill. The two nominees for the Universi­ ty Court of Appeals were Jack Jensen and Todd Evans. Todd Evans was elected while Jack Jensen was voted down after leaving the Senate meeting early. By accepting his position to the Court of Appeals, Evans will hear and judge a case that has been appeal­ ed by a student. Along with Evans, another junior and two seniors will be appointed to serve. All will serve fullyear terms. The three remaining posi­ tions are open. While debating the nominees for Court of Appeals, the question of whether it was unconstitutional for a part-time student to serve on the court came up. This matter is being resear­ ched further. This issue made Senate aware of several questions concerning the Con­ stitution that are raised and need to be dealt with. One solution proposed was to form a separate committee to deal exclusively with constitutional matters so that it does not interfere with Senate meetings in the future. A new senate bill was introduced but not passed. Off-Campus Committee member Scott Post introduced the bill. The purpose would be to recognize an award to an apartment renter in the Boone area for their support. While most senators thought it was "a good bill," there was objection. Some thought it to be too vague. One senator called it a "noteworthy pro­ ject" but felt the bill needed more in­ formation before it could be passed. Other old business discussed was the acceptance of the three Publica­ tions Council Appointment. The Ap­ palachian News Editor Matt Hawkins, Rhododendron Managing Editor Beth Hughes and WASU Sta­ tion Manager Greg Coury were ap­ pointed. A complaint raised by Senate dur­ ing the screening of the appointments was the number of advertisements in The Appalachian. Some said they felt there were too many ads. A question was addressed to the appointees on how they felt. "Ads are a very important part of the paper and The Appalachian can­ not fully function without them," Hawkins said. "Only 20 percent of the funding comes from student fees while the rest comes from the ad sales." The six Executive Cabinet appoint­ ments accepted were Treasurer Pam Mills, Assistant Secretary Cam Jor­ dan, Administrative Assistant Brian Groh, Director of Mountaineer Escort Charles Ledbetter, Secretary Mary Sue Hicks, and Legislative Assistant Jeff Merritt. Ledbetter was asked about the progress of the ser­ vice and for any improvements.

U.S. 421 expansion proceeding on schedule By MARTHA FLOWERS Appalachian Staff Writer The Department of Transportation is now in the planning stages for the widening of Highway 421 between Boone and the end of the four lanes in Watauga County. The estimated total cost of the pro­ ject is $34,675,000. While the project is not yet fully funded, the money will be appropriated by the Federal Highway Administration and also by the State Highway Fund, with most of the money coming from the Federal Highway Administration. "Planning is underway now. We have a Transportation Improvement Schedule, but we'll more than likely be getting a new one in November. There has been a lot of pressure to move the schedule up, and that pressure probably won't be ignored," District Engineer for the Department of Transportation Roger Cates said.

See EXPANSION Page 2 Robert Bork: For, against and around (CPS)—The U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee room wasn't the only place people debated President Reagan's nomination of Robert Bork to the U.S. Supreme Court last week. About 250 people attended a rally at the University of Iowa September 14 to voice opposition to Bork's nomination. "This man is against everything that guarantees the civil rights of this country's citizens," UI Black Student Union President Rodney Sturgeon said. A newly-formed group, "Yale Students Against Bork," boasts nearly 100 members and is embarking on a petition and letter writing campaign to per­ suade the Senate to block Bork's appointment to the high court. Sixteen members of the Yale College Republicans protested the group's first meeting, holding signs with slogans such as "Liberal Scare Tactics? Just Say No" and Stop Liberal McCarthyism." The Yale College Republicans is mounting its own letter writing campaign in favor of Bork's nomination. At the University of Colorado, 700 students mailed anti-Bork postcards to Colorado Senators Tim Wirth and Bill Armstrong. Liberal student activists gathered about 400 signitures on petitions opposing Bork's nomination. The CU student government also passed a resolution opposing Bork's nomination. Conservative students at the University of Texas hailed Bork and called for the senate to confirm his nomination at a rally celebrating the U.S. Constitu­ tion September 17. UT Democrats said the Constitution celebration was an in­ appropriate forum for a pro-Bork rally. Twice as many University of Alabama students favor Bork's nomination as oppose it, according to petitions circulated on campus. A pro-Bork petition received 182 signitures as of September 14. A petition opposing Bork's confir­ mation to the Supreme Court seat received 85 votes. "He's a staunch conservative," Alabama College Republican President Scott Miller said. "I'm all for the court leaning to the right. I'd like to see the court more conservative in its decisions." About 200 University of Illinois students attended an anti-Bork rally organiz­ ed by the school's Abortion Rights Coalition September 16. "No one is safe, no one's rights are guaranteed by a judge who believes not enough thought was put into the Constitution," Gay and Lesbian Illini co-president Peg Phillips said. Bork's nomination also is opposed by national student and higher education groups such as the United States Student Association (USSA), the National Education Association and the American Association of Univesity Women. Divestment heats up, Sullivan denounces principles (CPS)—As a nationwide series of planned anti-apartheid protests ap­ proaches in October, activists expect the pressure on campuses to sell their shares in firms that do business in segregationist South Africa will be more intense than ever. Activists note this is the first protest season since the Rev. Leon H. Sullivan called for U.S. businesses to withdraw from South Africa. In 1977, Sullivan authored the Sullivan Principles, a list of civil rights that companies agreed to respect among their South African employees, regardless of color. Scores of colleges, unwilling to take the financial losses of selling their shares in the firms, adopted policies requir­ ing the companies to comply with the principles. Yet in June, Sullivan, a Philadelphia minister and civil rights leader, frustrated by the South African government's unwillingness to dismantle apartheid and its moun­ ting violence, called on firms to stop trying to make the best of a bad situa­ tion, and to pull out of the country altogether. The announcement effectively left campuses that endorsed the principles without an investment policy. Fifty-nine of the nation's biggest campuses had adopted the Sullivan Principles, the Investor Responsibility Research Center in Washington, D.C., said. "It's hard to say what will happen," Dartmouth College spokesman Alex Huppe said, adding Sullivan's call "has escalated the (Dartmouth Board of) trustees' con­ cern, in terms of direction. It does add fuel to the discussion." "Sullivan's comments definitely will put pressure on schools to divect " thp student coordinator of the American Committee on Africa Josh Nessen said. Anti-apartheid efforts on American campuses began in 1963, but were never much of a force until this decade. As recently as 1984, Nessen's group would piggyback anti-apartheid rallies with more popular causes like disarmament in order to draw crowds. But in January, 1985, without much prodding from Nessen's group, anti-apartheid sit-ins and demonstraSee DIVESTMENT Page 2 �THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1987 Divestment Drug testing expanded to outside areas that operate in South Africa, he said, Scores of colleges adopted man­ has dropped "30 or 40 percent" in re­ athletes to submit to it, (CPS)—Two more colleges may Students who test positive for illicit tions suddenly exploded on dozens of cent years. datory drug tests for their athletes set a precedent allovZS force students outside their athletic drugs could be expelled. campuses, and the momentum built Student anti-apartheid activists during the 1986-87 school year, large­ force all students, departments to take mandatory drug Meanwhile, Central Florida Com­ to involve as many as 100,000 welcome Sullivan's change of heart, ly in reaction to the June, 1986, athletic skills, to :i tests. munity College in Ocala, Fl., has students in April demonstrations.

Salem College, for the uninformed, is a colonial monument to "old world" education. It also reminded me a lot of the set for Facts of Life. I thoroughly enjoyed myself last weekend. I went out to eat at an exclusive Winston-Salem restaurant, danced in a Hyatt House ballroom, and had a great time partying afterwards.. .1 think. I also attended a Deacs fraternity party where the main activity seemed to be wretching technicolor yawns until daybreak. I spent a lot of time climbing a tall tree for some reason, but that is getting off the subject. Anyhow, I absolutely love the people I spent time with, but I was constantly surrounded by music that I cannot stand. To make a long story short, 1 spent a weekend terminally bebopping to Prince, Berlin, Michael Jackson, and the Pet Shop Boys, and listening to the apparently still prevalent incantations of "Oh yeah baby.. .1 love you like no other." Can you say cliche? Yes, here it is, a personal inside viewpoint of what this dear columnist is actually like on one important topic—music. Well, isn't that special? Anyone who knows me at all, knows that I am a music freak. I love to listen to what I want to listen to. I also want to make sure everyone knows I am in no way condemning people for their musical taste. I am only condemning music. So anyway, like I was saying, I was at this school of the maximum security variety, and naturally 1 sat around and watched a lot of television. I started watching MTV, and was kind of amazed and appalled at what I saw. I've watched MTV before, don't get me wrong, but this time I had enough time to really get into it. George Michael's "I Want Your Sex" wins first prize in my book for poor taste. Listen, I'm no angel, but get real; it is kind of a stupid song isn't it? My next favorite was the new Michael Jackson "Bad" video. I was laughing on the floor.. .get the picture? How could anyone pay money to listen to a grown man who sounds and acts like my thirteen year old sister? Bad? Sorry Michael, you ain't. Alright, so all I've done is criticize. What in the heck does an opinionated person like me listen to? Well, I listen to a lot of thrash, and other equally cerebral types of music. I'm also a big fan of Rush, Yes, and R.E.M. Thrash is an extremely fast and heavy version of typical "metal," and con­ tains bands with the likes of Metallica, Anthrax, and a host of lesser known bands of which I m sure most people have never heard. The music type itself stems from a rebellious 70's punk and a late 60's to 70's heavy metal fusion. A band like Rush is not thrash. Rush is simply.. .well, Rush. I will defend them until it snows in hell as the best band in the world, but believe me anyhow, I know what I'm talking about. We can walk our roads together if our goats are alt the same; we can run alone and free if we pursue a different aim. Let the truth of love be lighted; let the love of truth shine clear.

University bank's priority is customers By ANDREA ANDERSON Appalachian Staff Writer The University Branch of First Union Bank has been serving the needs of the ASU community since April of 1971, Sandra Bryan, Branch Manager said. The branch has changed a bit since it opened, closing down from four to two tellers in July of 1984, and chang­ ing its name from Northwestern to First Ufjion in 1985. Bryan said that mey are just as busy as the other branches of First Union, with only two tellers to do the work. "It's hard for two people to do it all," Bryan said. She said it would help move things along if students would have their pre-printed deposit slips and their checks filled out before they get into line. The Bookstore Branch of First Union is closed from 1-3 p.m. every workday, whereas some banks (like other locations of First Union) don't close at all. During this time, Bryan and the other teller, Hilda Matheson, balance the windows and the automatic teller machine and do "a lot of paperwork," according to Bryan. Other banks have more help, so they don't have to close to get these things done. Some students think that the tellers get two hours for lunch, but Bryan refutes this. "If we have thirty minutes for lunch, we're lucky," she said. Some students complain that the bank charges one dollar to cash a check from another bank. Bryan noted that most banks will not cash any checks other than their own. This dollar goes toward processing the checks, and that does not cover the cost completely. Most of the bank's business is in cashing checks, making deposits and giving change. "It is not actually a profit-making office," Bryan said. Some might wonder why the bank stays open at all. The answer is that First Union hopes, by the students do­ ing business with them now, an^fe hopefully remembering the good ser­ vice, they'll continue to bank with First Union in the future. "One of our goals is to have a satisfied customer," Bryan said. "We enjoy working with the students," Bryan said. She com­ mented that the majority of the students are very nice. Bryan said that she and Matheson enjoy helping students learn how to bank, when they need help. "A lot of them come to school with no knowledge of an account," Bryan said. "We work with them as much as we can," she said. Bryan feels that it is important for students to learn these things now, so they can be prepared for doing banking business on their own after graduation. She said that the majority of students have some knowledge of how to conduoMfeejr banking affairs. When asked if students are any dif­ ferent than the standard customer, Bryan looked surprised. She said they spend as much time with students as they do with any other customer. The only things that this branch does not do are loans or timed accounts like In­ dividual Retirement Accounts. Both Bryan and Matheson have a positive attitude toward their jobs, and seem to enjoy them. "I just enjoy it," Matheson said. "We'll do out best... to tryito have a satisfied customer," Bryan said.

(CPS)-The University of Rochester, apparently embarrassed by its disenrolling of a Japanese student who worked for the business rival of a major UR con­ tributor, asked the student to return, but the student has refused. Rochester "disenrolled" Tsuneo Sakai in early September when Eastman Kodak Co., which has given millions of dollars to the school, threatened to take its 205 employees out of classes there. officials complained to the school. Kodak also worried Sakai might steal company secrets. Sakai, who works for Kodak arch­ rival Fuji Photo Film Co., would in­ hibit Kodak employees in the same class from "sharing ideas," company UR, in turn, disenrolled Sakai, helping him transfer to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Boston. The transfer, however, provoked accusations from education groups around the country that Rochester was sacrificing the integrity of its classrooms and the rights of its students to please a wealthy corporate contributor.

By AMEE SMITH Appalachian Staff Writer The Black Student Association is sponsoring Black Heritage Week, October 5-11. During the first four days of the event, there were displays in Belk Library and the Student Union. An African Art presentation was held in either the BSA conference room or Our House on October 7 at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, October 8 at 8 p.m. in Broome-Kirk Gym the Chuck Davis African-American Dance Ensemble will perform. There will be a gospel music workshop on Saturday, October 10 from 11-2 in the Broyhill rehearsal room. The weeklong event will con­ clude at 3 p.m. at the First Baptist Church of Boone where the BSA Gospel Choir will have a concert. President of the Black Student Association, Darrin Eaton, explained the purpose of Black Heritage Week. "For the black students, it reminds them where they came from and for the white and other students, it gives them the opportunity to learn more about the heritage of the black race and hopefully will encourage them to look within themselves to discover their heritage. Everyone should know where they came from." The Black Student Association with a membership of nearly 150 is led by President Darrin Eaton and VicePresident Chris Evans. ^Ji ACK HERITAGE: The Black Student Association is sponsoring HalB'ack Heritage Week this week.

It was quiet for awhile. Ranger lick and the Lost Guides were on stage messing around with some tunes. Not a bad beat, but I never did quite figure out what style of music they were playtogJ Life and excitement in The Pub improved dramatically around 10, when Jpimie (I never did catch his last name, but you'd know him if you saw him) showed up. He went right to the front of the stage and started dancing. 1Jjjjhere s a man who knows how to have fun. I hear he shows up at all ASU functions. If we had multitudes of support like that, we could probably talk . U2 into a Boone tour date. Anyway, on to the 'Gators. ; They hit the stage after RR & the LG's finished up, and took command of the evening. I ve seen them before, but last Friday's show was outstanding What really appeals to me is the 'Gators' style. Not just the blues they play i but the way the whole performance goes. They work hard, but on stage it all seems effortless. The name of the game is fun. I Lead singer Bill Cannel stood on stage and crooned about everybody who done everybody else wrong. It's hard to be down and blue, though, 'cause he's got such a cute smile. Everyone else got their turn to shine, too. Bassist Billy [Vinson and drummer Scott Post each did a fabulous solo, which, knowing them, they probably made up as they went along. As Heidi Schneider said, v [ The man (Post) broke two drumsticks in five minutes and recovered without tnfiissing a beat." That's cool. | Guitarist Mike Conway looked pleased as Cannel told the crowd that the Alligators were going to perform a Conway original. Conway writes good stuff. Guitarist Chris Clapp is just amazing. He can figure out how to play almost anything. While the Lost Guides were still on stage, Clapp picked up his guitar, sat in the back corner, and picked out the song that RR & the LG's were playing. Soon he had it down pat, and then he did some changes on it, and well, it was neat. So there you have it. Reasons why I think the 'Gators are the greatest. And I challenge anybody to go see them and not have a great time. 0 Jane Powell to * provide class act I By LARA WRAY Appalachian Staff Writer Plans are being made for a very Kcial event at H'Appy's during lomecoming.

H'Appy's manager Pink Floyd: The name's magic By BILL BALDWIN Appalachian Staff Writer How would you feel if Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts recorded an album and toured as the Rolling Stones? What if Ringo Starr released an album as the Beatles? Do you think The Edge would be so pretentious as to release an album as U2? I don't think that many people would be very pleased with any of these events, yet a similar abomination has taken place, and people are standing in line to wor­ ship it. Wake up! In the late 60's, Syd Barrett, Nick Mason, Rick Wright and Roger Waters formed a band called The Pink Floyd. (Later they became known as simply Pink Floyd.) Shortly thereafter, David Gilmour replaced acid casualty/Floyd founder Barrett as the lead guitarist. Waters became the "leader" of the band as his ideas became more and more dominant in the themes of the band's many concept albums. By the time The Final Cut was released, Pink Floyd was little more than Waters with the other members as a backing band. Over the years, all the members of the band have participated in solo projects, some good, some bad, some experimental, none Pink Floyd. Waters and Gilmour in particular have had critical and commercial suc­ cess with their solo albums. These two each had some choice words to say during recent battles over the rights to the name "Pink Floyd." Waters viewed Pink Floyd as a creative vehicle whose usefulness had expired, but Gilmour felt that ad­ ditional Pink Floyd projects could be successful without damaging the in­ tegrity of the band. While I believe Gilmour has a defi­ ciency in the integrity department, he is not stupid. He probably thought, "I can record an album and call it David Gilmour and make a few hun­ dred thousand, or I can make an album and call it Pink Floyd and Appalachian Staff Writer A.P.P.S.

It does not, however, live up to the ex­ pectations inspired by the name "Pink Floyd." R.E.M.'s show outstanding even for them By BRENT CAWN Appalachian Staff Writer It was Saturday, October 3 at Duke University's Cameron Indoor Stadium. The crowd was anxiously awaiting what would soon be an un­ forgettable show. I had managed to get downstairs from the top level, and when the lights went out, I rushed the stage. I wound up right in the center front. 10,000 Maniacs started off the show. Surprisingly they were really good. They were so good in fact, that I'm going to buy their latest album release, In My Tribe. But R.E.M. was the group that everybody was there to see, and it was worth every penny. R.E.M. put on a show that sur­ passed their September 15 perform­ ance last year at Cameron. Instead of overplaying their current release, Document, the group performed like a well-oiled machine, and included a variety of songs from their previous releases: Murmur, Reckoning, Fables of the Reconstruction, and Life's Rich Pageant. R.E.M. consists of lead singer Micahel Stipe, lead guitarist Peter Buck, drummer Bill Berry, and bassist/vocal backups Mike Mills. The show opened with "The Finest Worksong" from Document, fol­ lowed by "Pilgrimage" from Murmur, which gave me an early sign that the group planned to perform releases from all their albums. I thoroughly enjoyed the performance of Mills when he, along with Buck and Berry, performed the old Troggs tune, "With a Girl Like You." I knew the Troggs tune was something I recognized, but I wasn't sure who did it until later that night. As I walked into a club in Raleigh, The Pier, much to my surprise, I spied Mills, Buck and Berry sitting at a table. I asked Buck how he felt about this year's tour, and he said, "We feel like (the chemistry) is better. We're really rockin' this tour." Incidentally, N.C. is the first state that the band has played since their return from Europe. "The Glass Menagerie"performed tonight By AMY CARPENTER middle-class St. Louis family. The play is set on the eve of World War II. In many ways it parallels Williams' life, especially his relationship with his sister. The central characters are Amanda and her children Tom and Laura. The character Laura is modeled on William's sister Rose, a diagnosed schizophrenic. Amanda is the strongest character in the play and wants only the best for her children. Through her love for her children Amanda tries to run their lives and force her own goals upon them. She projects girlish fantasies of flirtation and romance on the reluctant Laura, who lives her own fantasy existence Appalachian Staff Writer Thursday night. What does it mean to you? The Cosby Show? A late night soccer game? -^out a few beers and a bus ride to Genos? — Tonight there is an alternative. Why not opt for a totally new and unique experience—involve yourself in a cultural event! Tonight at 8 p.m. the Performing Arts and Lecture Series is presenting the Missouri Repertory Theatre's pro­ duction of The Glass Menagerie. Tennessee Williams' play was first produced in 1945. It centers around the domestic tension of a lower amidst her father's old records and her menagerie of little glass animals. This is a memory play set entirely in the mind of Tom, who looks back on his troubled family with longing and regret. He loves both his troublesome mother and his helpless sister, but he cannot help them—he can barely help himself. Williams calls upon the audience to pity and to understand, but not to judge Amanda, Laura and Tom. The three are portrayed as fragile, brittle characters who love and break each other. The Glass Menagerie is playing in Farthing Auditorium. For ticket information call 262-4046.

Tootsie shows at 7 p.m. Friday and 9 p.m. Saturday. The other weekend feature is the recently released Tin Men from Touchstone Pictures. Starring Richard Dreyfuss and Danny DeVito, Tin Men is the story of two aluminium siding salesmen, hence the title, who become ferocious rivals after a minor fender bender.

(CPS)—Twentyone students gathered in the TV lounge at a residence hall at Spelman College September 24, waiting with some eagerness and some skepticism for the show A Different World to begin. The students had some special reasons to be excited. The fictional black college at which the show takes place is based on Spelman, and the production company had filmed loca­ tion shots on the campus, which had competed with several other local black colleges for the privilege. And Spelman, a 105-year-old black women's college, had other things at stake: unprecedented and invaluable national exposure for the school and black colleges in general. No one at Spelman, the show's pro­ duction company or the United Negro College Fund could remember another TV program that featured a predominantly black college. A Different World is a spin-off from the top rated Bill Cosby Show, tracing the experiences of Cosby's character's daughter, Denise Huxtaoie, piayed by Lisa Bonet, away from home for the first time. "It's about the college experience, also the maturing process, the process of growing from childhood to adulthood. The college is an impor­ tant environment for that process," explained Joel Brokaw, publicist for the show's production company. The students watching at Spelman recognized it. Not everyone was impressed. 'Denise," said one student, "was an unbelievable character." Another viewer thought the character's clothes were so "way out" that they detracted from the plot. But in general, most students seemed to agree with student Beverly Hilbnan's summation: "That was a good show. 1 was surprised, very much surprised." Educators also had reason to like it. "Black colleges are known for their academic excellence," said Adrienne Rhodes of the United Negro College Fund. "The new show will expose episode didn't campus. And they IJlav n_, of it during that to a broader public." "It will show that black colleges are places where black students can gel good role models, find mentors and take active roles in student govern ment and clubs," Rhodes added. Spelman Development Director Tanya Moore adds that A Different World can illustrate to the nation that a young black woman's life at college is important That reinforces what we say. see ; N, After filming ex. .

Haas named to all-tourney team Lady Paladins win five-setter By SABRINA SELLS After losing their first match in the double elimination tournament, the Lady Mountaineer's volleyball team pulled together and came back to win the University of Tennessee at Martin Invitational last weekend. Angela Haas, a senior and cocaptain of the team, led the offensive attack with 38 kills, eight service aces, and a 21.2 hitting percentage. She was also named'to the All-Tournament Team along with teammate Kris Zubay. For her outstanding performance, Angela Haas is The Appalachian Ahtlete of the Week. The Lady Apps beat Southeast Missouri State in the final match to clinch the tournament with an 8-5 record. "The team really came together this weekend," Haas said. "We played Jike a team, not like individuals. I believe the team really got the ball rolling this weekend, and I feel it was a turning point in the season." ASU Coach Traci Blankenship was Pleased with Haas' performance last weekend. She really cante through for us," tankenship said. "She's always been aa offensive-minded player. That's where her drive comes from. She By BERRY EPLEY Haas also excelled defensively last weekend with 21 digs in the tourna­ ment, the second highest on the team. She has improved from fifth on the team in digs earlier in the season. As for the remainder of the season, Haas has one outstanding goal. Appalachian Staff Writer Angeia rtaas wants to attack and kill the ball." Haas has a strong desire to excel in matches and she strives for perfection in each and every game. "She's the type of player who is really hard on herself," Blankenship said. "Earlier in the season she had been taking the responsibility of every mistake the team made. Nobody can handle that kind of pressure. The team tried to help her out by relieving some of the pressure, and she has ex­ celled." Appalachian Staff Writer "Coach Blankenship has really brought out the best in us," Haas said. "And I'd like to show her everything that she has done for us. I believe we could do that by winning the Southern Conference." Her winning attitude makes her a tough opponent both offensively and defensively. "She doesn't get intimidated by anybody," Blankenship said. "She is 5-8 and walks up against players 6-0 and puts the ball down their chest. She wants to kill the bail every oppor­ tunity she gets. The rest of the year she should continue to get better and better." After she graduates, Haas, a criminal justice and psychology ma­ jor, is planning to attend law school at UNC-Chapel Hill. Right now, though, she is concentrating on the re­ mainder of her senior season on the ASU volleyball team.

The ASU women's volleyball team traveled to Greenville, SC, Tuesday night only to drop a grueling two-anda-half hour, five-set match to the Pur­ ple Paladins of Furman, 15-11 9-F5 10-15, 15-6, 15-13. The decisive fourth game was where ASU Coach Traci Blankenship felt the match was decided. "We should have taken it in tie fourth game," Blankenship said. }'I feel like we let up in game four." j The game statistics defend Blank­ enship s feelings. The Mountaineers hitting percentage was around 30 fir most of the match but dropped to -25 in the crucial fourth game. The Paladins took game four 15*6 and then held off the Lady Apps to win the match 15-13 in game five. The Mountaineers were coming off a championship at the UT-Martin ItJvitational and Blankenship felt h^r players could have been a bit weary' "I believe we were tired," Blankeiiship said.

The Flame defense will have to improve on their rushing defense. They give up 197.3 yards on the ground, something to have ASU running backs licking their chops. Their pass defense isn't much better as the Flames give up 169.3 yards passing. Kicking Bjorn Nittmo tied his own school record with four field goals against WFU. His threepointers came from 47, 31, 51, and 32 yards. Nittmo has hit 8-9, including his last seven in a row. ASU's punt team fell apart in the Deac contest, costing the Apps the game. Tony Cox punt blocked and returned for a TD. Cox averaged only 28.7 yards per punt and had one returned 43 yards setting up a field goal. Liberty punter Kenny Smith averages 37.3 yards per punt. Sophomore placekicker Joe Pouncey is back for the Flames. Pouncey is consistent and started for LU last year. Intangibles The Apps have had two weeks to over come the heartbreaker at Wake Forest. The Liberty contest is the only game stand­ ing between ASU and six consecutive Southern Conference games. It could be easy for the Mountaineers to overlook the Flames. This is Liberty's Super Bowl. At 1-3, they haven't had a lot to cheer about and a victory over ASU would make their season.

IT COULD BE THE TEST OF YOUR LIFE. ADVANTAGE ASU quarterbock Todd Payton went 12-26 for 119 yards versus the Deocons. For the season, he has completed 48.9 percent of his passes, averaging 10.4 yards per completion. Fullbock Doug Beaty leods the Mountaineers in recep­ tions with 11 for 91 yards. WR Wardell Jeffer­ son returns after missing the Wake game with injured ribs. Payton has yet to throw a touchdown pass. Since the Apps score only 14.8 points per game, Payton needs to stick the ball in the end zone. But this week, he may not need to worry about it. Liberty QB Paul Johnson completes 59 percent of his passes and throws for 176.5 yards a game. That wouldn't be too shabby if the Flames had a running game to complement Johnson. But they don't. Larkins leads the Flames with 11 catches for only 4.8 yards per catch. Defense • Friday-Saturday • 11 a.m.-2 a.m. • Fast-Free Delivery Passing - Monday-Thursday 11 a.m.-l a.m. • Pick Up Running COMMENT Tailbacks Tim Sanders (276 yards) and Ritchie Melchor (239) anchor the ASU rushing attock that has frequently sputtered. The Apps look­ ed like the Apps of old in the first half of the Wake Forest loss two weeks ago with 102 rushing yards. But ASU could manage just 30 second half yards as they went scoreless. The Mountaineers have won the time-ofpossession battle in one game this year; by a slim X seconds against JMU. Not too hot for a ball-control team. Liberty's rushing game has yet to get on trock, and in all probability, will not this season. Leading rusher Willie Larkins averages 48.8 yards per game and the Flames gain just 96 yards per game. * AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY * Are you up for tfie CHALLENGE< Find out in this year's COLLEGE BOWL.

This time some questions Mr. Grey Drum has ex­ pressed in his letter in the October edition of The Appalachian will be answered, so to better educate himself and any other individuals.

When school begins, we encourage all undergraduate students who are in­ terested in being a SGA senator, to be a senator. At the beginning of the school year letters are sent to all registered ASU clubs and organizations, and public announcements are posted. All undergraduate students are welcomed to be a part of the senate elections in hopes of being a senator. Unfortunately, many minority students do not have an in­ terest in Senate. Presently we have minority students, non-traditional students, Greek members, etc representing the ASU student body Everyone of the senators are doing' their best. My next point is that Senate did meet for five hours on Sept. 15 of this year. A great deal was ac­ complished during that meeting. Freshman, Junior, and Senior court justices were chosen, new senators were approved to represent you, senators learned what to expect in Senate meetings... debate, ques­ tions, procedure of meetings, etc., and senators not only learned, but so did many others. That night everyone in that room learned something. One thing I know I learned is that we have 80 dedicated students representing the studentsvoices in Senate this year. Many of these are off-campus senators who sent students like yourself a newslet­ ter All senators deserve a pat on the back.

The Watauga County Board of Commissioners has approved Lott Parrish Associates (LPA) full report on the possible construction of an air­ port at Buck Ridge. County Manager James Ratchford said yesterday that the proposal was sent to the Federal Aviation Ad­ ministration (FAA) and the state Department of Transportation for final approval. "We are waiting on the approval before we make any type of deci­ sion," Ratchforc' said. "At this time there are no plans on if and when we will start on the project." The completed report contains a four-phase project. Phase I entails a discussion on the need for an airport as a means to attract industry to the county; Phase II contains informa­ tion on the selection of Buck Ridge as the site area; Phase III involves an en­ vironmental assessment report which requires a public hearing, held last spring. The final phase of the project con­ tains a detailed financial assessment of the project. The entire project in the first five years bears a total cost of $15,949,000. This cost includes the construction of a 5,000x75 foot run­ way with a pavement of asphalt two inches thick with a six inch underlying base. This cost also includes taxi lanes and a 43-space parking lot and a 1,100 square foot terminal. State and local shares in the project even out at $819,770. The total federal share is $13,967,460 while private contributions total $342,000. The direct revenues realized are taxes on aircraft fuel sales; fees based upon a percentage of the fixed base operator's income; aircraft tie-down fees; percentage fees from all restaurant and vendor sales; local taxes on air taxi passenger tickets; and the actual lease agreement between the fixed base operator and the spon­ sor. An additional source of airportrelated revenue for the sponsor could consist of personal property taxes levied upon based aircraft owners and the operators of the various service facilities which may be established. These facilities could consist of ad­ ditional aircraft maintenance facilities, air taxi or charter services, flight schools and car rental agencies.

See NEW AIRPORT Page 2 Suicide prevention facilities inadequate By TRENT HUFFMAN Appalachian News Editor There are two 24-hour crisis telephone lines in the Boone area available to ASU students are who are thinking about suicide. Staffers from the ASU Counseling and Psychological Services Center are available on a 24-hour basis for students with emergencies. Students in non-emergency situations needing counseling can come into the Center in the Student Support Building or call 262-3180 to make an appointment. Students needing to talk to someone from the counseling center at night may call the ASU Health Service at 262-3100 or ASU Security at 262-2150. Staff members at the in­ firmary and security will get in touch with the on-duty counselor from the ASU counseling service who will then call the student back. "On any college campus there are many students from time to time that consider suicide," Director of the ASU Counseling and Psychological Services Center Dr. Don Sanz said. "We are primarily a service that is designed to work with ASU students," Sanz said. Another crisis line available to ASU students is the telephone line offered by the New River Mental Health Department. Students thinking about committing suicide can call 264-4357. The dispatcher at the Watauga Country Sheriff's Department will take the student's number and have someone from the mental health center call them back as soon as possible. "With suicide the acute danger isn't something that lasts really long," New River Mental Health Department Staff Psychologist Murray Hawkinson said. "You just help the people try to get past that stage and let them see that there is hope. Then you try to get them in for counseling." Most of the counseling is done at the mental health office by appointment during their nor­ mal hours of 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. People needing in-depth counseling may be referred or checked into the psychiatric unit at Cannon Hosptal in Banner Elk. < Boone Town Council member and sponsor of the Watauga Youth Council Sheila Yost said the services provided by the New River Mental Health Department and the Counseling Appalachian Photo by Chris Goodwyn 1 Dr. Donald L. Sanz Center were not adequate. "There is not an adequate suicide preven­ tion program in this area that I know of," Yost said. "There desparately needs to be one set up here with a 24-hour manned phone line. "I have talked with people and it is possible. We just need to get on it and put it together," she added. Yost said the Boone area needs a system where a counselor would be immediately available for people that call in where they wouldn't have to wait to be called back. Yost said she was involved in a similar pro­ gram in Baton Rouge, Louisiana where the suicide rate dropped 35 percent when the pro­ gram was started. Yost said she had spent hours on the telephone talking to people who were thinking about taking their own lives. "If people can get through the rough times or have someone to talk to and know someone cares, it helps," she said. Sanz said it would probably be a good idea to have a 24-hour manned telephone line. "There really is a problem. I think that the crisis services here are inadequate," Sanz said. "Given the amount of crisis' and emergenices that happen, available services really need to be broadened." Hawkinson said the New River Mental Health Center had adequate services. "I don't think that anyone can be totally effective all the time. Suicide is impulsive and people who are suicidal don't bother to call all the time," he said. Hawkinson said the average time a person who is considering suicide has to wait is about five minutes. However, waiting times up to an hour and more have been reported. "Most of the crisis' we deal with don't in­ volve life or death emergencies,"Hawkinson said. "Rarely do you need more that one per­ son on an emergency call. If someone makes it clear that someone is in a major emergency, we'll get back to clear them as soon as possible." "People need someone now to see that they care," Yost said. "I think if we had a phone that was manag­ ed 24-hours a day we would be in business. I'd like to see ASU get involved because that's where the enthusiasm is," she added. "I think that they are planning to do more," Director of ASU Health Services Evan Ashby said. "Perhaps we need to let out more publici­ ty about what services are available and find out what the inadequacies are." Ashby said since 1971 there have been ap­ proximately 56 suicides in the Boone area and three of those were ASU students. Of the ASU students two were self-inflicted gunshot wounds and one was a hanging. Other universities in the UNC system have other facilities available for students thinking of suicide. East Carolina University in Greenville, with an enrollment of 14,800, has a five-member counseliong center and a psychiatric staff at their medical school. Student Health Services Director James McCallum said Greenville, with a population of 40,000, has a 24-hour manned telephone line where students can call in to get immediate help. UNC-Wilmington has an enrollment of 6,100 students in a city of about 45,000 people. The student development center provides counseling on an emergency basis. "We rely a lot on students and the residence hall staff," Director of the Student Support Center Dr. Diane McKinstry said. Staffers from the center also speak in classes to make students aware of what services are available. "I think we're getting a good reputation on campus on being available to students. Students are using us more and more.

Svoray denounces terrorism By MARTHA FLOWERS Appalachian Staff Writer International security expert Yaroi Svoray who specializes in terrorisn and anti-terrorist activities spoke it Farthing Auditorium Wednesda; night as part of the University Forun Series, Nearing the Nineties: Trend and Issues. Svoray belongs to the Central Com mand Police Unit which deals wit! the prevention of terrorist activities serious crimes and drug trafficking He is also a member of the Israel Defense Forces Paratrooper Reserv< Units. "As we were getting ready to go in, something fell out of the second floor window. It was the body of a 12 year old girl." Yoran Svoray He is currently on a leave of absense from his duties with the Cen­ tral Police Command, (CPC), an organization similar to the FBI. Svoray has been a direct witness to Mideast terrorism and has parcipated in the Yom Kippar War, the war in Lebanon and in other military ac­ tivities in special forces units as a paratrooper and crew commander. "Terrorism is a serious problem because it affects all of us," Svoray said. "There are more than 200 ter­ rorists organizations in the world." Svoray discussed media presenta­ tion of terrorism. "We like it because it is exciting and mysterious. The im­ age we see when we think of a ter­ rorist is a good-looking Arab in his mid twenties," Svoray said. "He is young, idealistic and determined. This isn't reality." Svoray then told a story about how terrorist organizations recruit fighters. The story is about a 17 year old boy named Muhammed and may or may not be true. "He is from a small, dusty, quiet village-in Lebanon. He is standing around when a small convoy arrives," Svoray said. "A young Arab steps out of a black Mercedes and is dressed in army fatigues and carrying a machine gun." "He calls the boy over and asks his name. He tells Muhammed his is go­ ing to make a man and a freedom fighter out of him. Muhammed agrees and they drive away." After a short training period he is called in and given a mission. "They will give him a plane ticket to Damascus where he will board a flight to France," Svoray said. "He is told that when he gets to the airport in France he must walk to his luggage slowly, reach in and get his machine gum, turn around and start shooting. Then he is to throw a few grenades and walk away. He thinks he really can walk away." Svoray told about his first enSee SVORAY Page 2 �2 THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDA Y, OCTOBER 6. 1987 Prevention New airport Kim Gray Continued from Page 1 John Matheson, who leads Citizens against an Airport, said Watauga County residents would pay higher taxes for airport construction, opera­ tion and maintenance and would not A special note of thanks to everyone who has been involved with and who receive growth which adds more to has helped Student Judiciary. the local economy than it demands in Many people do not realize the time and effort spent on making Student government expenditures.

Sink noted other potential uses in­ cluding regular medical evacuation, forest fire detection and transport of local residents and students. There would also be a slight possibility of the attraction of regional (commuter) service as well. The proposed site of the Buck Ridge airport consists of a valley with about four houses, fenced-in livestock and barns. LPA representative Tom Blankney said the site lacks natural resources and farm land that would be affected and said the airport would have no long-term effects upon the quality of water and air in the area. Matheson said the construction of an airport would cause a disruption of the water table and water shed at Buck Ridge which could lead to con­ tamination of Boone's water supply and flooding in Boone.

The terrorists were hiding in a building. "As we were getting ready to go in, something fell out of the se­ cond floor window. It was the body of a 12 year old girl," he said. The terrorists had gone into a building where more than 100 school children who had been out hiking were staying for the night. Their teachers had gotten out and left them. "We decided to storm the building after four more bodies were thrown out of the window," Svoray said. "I expected to see a seven-foot tall monster wearing black and who had red, bloodshot eyes and a scary grin. ?s (/) "O < 3 Partners Local Government "In the movies going after ter­ rorists is easy. Only the bad guys get hit. In reality the terrorists will sur­ round himself with hostages and train his gun on the door. It's easy to ac­ cidentally shoot hostages. "When we entered the room, in­ stead of Frankenstein's monster, I saw a 16 year old boy wearing blue jeans, a Coca-Cola T-shirt and white Adidas tennis shoes. He was fumbling with his gun and was shot three times in the head and died." Svoray has talked to many groups about terrorism, and said he is often asked why he does not negotiate with terrorists. "Negotiation doesn't work because the terrorist doesn't understand. He is given an identity by his comrades and nothing else means anything," he RE said. "I can offer him half of Beverly Hills and it doesn't matter. There is no reasoning to terrorism." "What terrorism needs is people and money, so they hire out their ser­ vices," Svoray said. "The Soviet Union plays a big part in this, and the result is a fallacy." "We have an im­ age of a fat little Russian sitting in the basement of the Kremlin with a huge map of the world behind him. He says, 'This week we will kill the Pope and next week we will kill Ronald Reagan.'" "We could rid the world of ter­ rorism, but the price is too high," Svoray said. "It would take too much money and innocent people would in­ evitably be hurt. Since it doesn't af­ fect us directly, we aren't willing to pay that price."

Everything about the Civil War has become victim to that slanting. Anyone with an elementary knowledge of American history can verify that North-South conflict predates this country. If Ben Franklin hadn't had lunch with the leaders of the northern and southern delegations and persuaded them to compromise, there might not be a United States now. M Yes, slavery was a popular cause at the time of the Civil War, and many •people then did think they were Fighting over it. But if the two sides were quar­ reling when they both had it, then it is only logical to conclude that they were ' [fighting over something else. The conflict from the beginning was primarily an economic one. The North ;was industrial and the South agrarian; tension naturally ensued, j Slavery was and is wrong, and that issue has been settled. So why am I being fipunished for something that happened before half of my ancestors arrived in 'Jthis country? It was probably because the people who won the war wrote the history •books and ran the schools. The southern economy was wrecked by the war •and today the South is still economically depressed. I am proud of where I live and I want other people to feel the same way. 4; But 1 would be lying if I said there weren't any repressed attitudes here. In my hometown, you can't throw a rock without hitting someone wearing a baseball cap. But must we all be lumped into either North or South; enlightened or ig­ norant, bigots, or humanists? j 1 don't own any Confederate flags or "Hell no, I ain't forgettin'," license plates.

Is What's the one thing townspeople, students, and faculty members have in common? Well, if it's not a love for Boone it's a love -hate relationship with Boone's winter weather. With the turning of the leaves comes a few red noses and sore throats, and who can help venturing a guess as to what lies ahead weatherwise? You don't have to look hard around the Boone area to find "weather watchers" who are willing to make predictions, and there seems to be as many formulas for figuring out the weather as possible forecasts. "Everybody talks about the weather, it's the only thing everybody talks about," Dr. Sandra Glover, a professor in the Biology department observed. A specialist in entomology, Glover spent 10 years studying woolly worms, alias hedgehog catepillars or bear worms to the more scientific mind. By counting the number „of black segments on a woolly worm you're supposed to be able to tell how harsh winter will be. The more black on the catepillar, the more severe the winter. "The interest in woolly worms started with the Indians. In October the worms are everywhere and in 1 Vi hours I have collected 100 or more from Vilas to Banner Elk," Glover said. Glover's work became nationally known. "It got to be too big for me. People sent me woolly worms from all over and I got calls from all over the coun­ try asking about the woolly worm. There were a lot of people who heard of ASU as a result," Glover said. In addition to a spot on P.M. Magazine, ASU's "woolly worm woman" was interviewed by scores of newspapers and radio stations. "One morning I had a radio an­ nouncer from California call and he wanted me to talk on his radio show," Glover said. Glover mentioned other methods used to predict the weather, such as how early squirrels put away nuts, the thickness of corn husks, the number of low-lying fogs, and the migration of birds. When asked if she felt these formulas for predicting weather were accurate, Glover responded, "I am not acquainted with studies that sup­ port or refute these indicators. "Based on the woolly worms, it will be warmer this winter as you get closer to the equator. It's cold every winter here in Boone, but it'll pro­ bably be warm in Cost Rica." "It's coming and we only have two choices; dig in or head south," a smil­ ing Dr. Bill Imperatore of the geology department said. "I have heard that according to the Farmer's Almanac we're going to have a long, hard winter." ASU is notorious for sticking-it-out through bad winter weather. "In the winter of 1965-66 it was relatively warm one afternoon and that night the wind chill factor got down to 65 degrees below zero by ear­ ly morning we hadl4 inches of snow! The temperature inside Duncan Hall was 40 degrees and of course school did not close," Imperatore recalled. "In 1976-77, Boone had 77 inches of snow and the local school system missed 40 days of school consecutive­ ly, classes were broadcast on WA TA. ASU had to delay registration oneday, which was the first time since the 1940's they closed school," Im­ peratore recalled. "Some students have suggested to me that if they could survive four winters and eight registrations they should be given their diplomas," Im­ peratore joked. As for predicting the weather, Dr. Imperatore said the location of the jet stream is crucial. "Watch the wind chill factor and realized that winter weather can be dangerous," Imperatore warned. Mr. Joe Minor, owner of Minor's Printing, has been keeping track of Boone weather for 30 years. Mr, Minor reports temperature extremes and precipitation daily to the Na­ tional Weather Service and was recently recognized for his service. "One year we had 90 inches of snow and it snowed straight for 6 weeks, I didn't move my car for two weeks," Mr. Minor recalls. Since moving to Boone in 1948, Mr. Minor has witnessed some bizarre Boone weather. "Another year students parked their cars over near Justice and the drifts were so high people were walking over the cars," Minor added.

LANGUAGE SYMPOSIUM FOR EDUCATORS: The Depart­ ments of Language, Reading, Ex­ ceptionalities, Curriculum and In­ struction presented the 22nd An­ nual Uberto Price Reading and Language Arts Symposium on October 1 and 2. The Symposium was held in the Broyhill Center for Continuing Education. The purpose of this symposium was to collect ideas about educators' writings. Pic­ tured is Uberto Price, who in­ troduced this program to the ASU campus. Reknowned professors and educators spoke on topics such as "Accelerated Learning," "Writing Smart" and "TeacherAuthors' Perceptions on Reading and Writing." I She DID get some bigots, too. They're everywhere, and I'm sure that For'syth County is crawling with them. But out of maybe 40 people who spoke, only two made overtly racist |l statements. That's not as bad as the Klan Central reputation would have it. I saw a marcher on the news at the time of the march saying that she thought | "We really showed them." | Showed them what? Showing people that you hate them solves nothing. ; ''m not trying to defend bigots; racism is wrong. But smearing everyone in | Forsyth County with the same brush veers dangerously close to bigotry itself, i I am saying we shouldn't throw out the baby with the bathwater. Love, not | hate, is the solution to hate. While the march needed to be held, I wonder if it actually helped. I would I be very angry if 10,000 people came to my town to call me a racist because | some of my neighbors were bigots. Back when I was a kid, busing started in Charlotte and Boston about the i same time. They had a little trouble in Charlotte, but in Boston they threw j rocks at buses full of children. And they call us racists. So it's only natural that I flinch every time I ride down U.S. 321 and see the i signs advertising what I see as a symbol of ignorance and southern oppression; [hillbilly dolls. i And I like Appalachian, but I wish Yosef, the mascot of our institution of Teaming, would buy some new clothes and get an education; it would do wonders for his image.

(CPS)—The jJniversity of Rochester, bowing to pressure from the Eastman Kodak Company, "disenrolled" a student jvho worked for the Fuji Photo Film -ompany because he would have ihared business classes with Kodak pnployees. .

When Kodak officials learned Sakai planned to attend courses, they "persuaded the university to disenroll" him, UR spokeswoman Jan Fitzpatrick said. Rochester then arranged for Sakai to attend the Massachusetts Institute of Technology this fall, she added. "Kodak was very concerned that, in a classroom setting where students are encouraged to discuss real-life problems, a student from a chief com­ petitor would pose a real threat to proprietary information," Fitzpatrick explained. Rochester officials feared Sakai's presence would inhibit classroom discussion, Fitzpatrick said. In a prepared statement, UR Presi­ dent Dennis O'Brien said he'd acted to avoid compromising "the integrity of the classroom, in which students share freely their own understanding of the subject matter gained through their own experience." "This is truly an extraordinary case," O'Brien stated. "The objec­ tion to the individual was not a matter of ideology or normal business rivalry. It was based on the judgement that his presence at the school could present an immediate and material threat to the legitimate proprietary interests of the Kodak Company." "In a business so Fiercely com­ petitive, even a casual conversation could result in the competitor receiv­ ing sensitive information," Fitz­ patrick added. "We didn't tell the university what to do," Kodak spokesman Ron Roberts said. "But we felt it was best to express our concerns." Both Kodak and Rochester say the company's financial gifts to the university were not discussed during the month-long conversations about Sakai's future at the university. Yet "money is always hanging over their heads," Susan Calhoun of the Washington, D.C.-based Council on Foundations said, which tracks corporate donations. "Kodak contributed $600,000 to the University of Rochester last year,' Fitzpatrick said, "and certainly is one of the most important donors to the university." Kodak's contributions were not a "direct factor" in the decision to disenroll Sakai, Fitzpatrick said. "But because Kodak has been so generous the university felt obliged to give a serious listening to Kodak's fears," he added. "This decision does not represent some kind of policy or set any prece­ dent for the future. We're an open institution. We'll continue to observe an open attitude in our admissions policy," Fitzpatrick maintained. Dr. Mark Frankel of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, however, said Rochester's decision to disenroll Sakai is "absurd." "If obtaining information is his motive," Frankel said of Sakai, "there's no reason he couldn't get it without attending a class."

For years, the most spontaneous and creative sport in the world has been completely ignored in the United States. This country's concentration has been fully directed toward sports such as baseball, basketball, and football. For this reason, the quality of play in the game of soccer has been extremely low in the United States. In an effort to elevate the standards of this sport in America, college soccer coaches have begun to recruit from foreign countries, more adept in their soccer abilities. The late-to-mid '70s brought about foreign recruits in the NCAA. Teams such as Clemson, Alabama, and ASU broke through with foreign recruits. They were the first schools in the U.S. to place an importance on collegiate soccer. In its early years of recruiting, Appalachian was graced with players such as English goalkeeper Steve Knoles and the notorious striker from Trinidad, Thompson Usiyan (Usiyan still holds NCAA records and ic presently a power in the MISL.) In the seven years during which A Rex has been head coach t Appalachian State, he has recrui ;d John Nedd of Trinidad, Adam Le< of Switzerland, Christian Tarn of Trinidad, and this year, Carlos -ee and Andy Salandy, from Trinida I. Rex sites two main reasons for recruiting foreign players: 1) Foreign players give their American mates a model to observe and work toward; they have higher technical abilities. 2) Also, the recruits are taken for the multi-cultural aspects; we learn from them and [hey learn Carlos Lee from us. "Collegiate soccer is an educational experience and, in order to achieve thisj you must get a mix of some foreign players," Rex said. In recruiting, Rex has contacts in France, England, Nigeria, and Trinidad According to him, Michael Grayson, his contact in Trinidad, is the most reliable. Rex played with Grayson (who is a former Nigerian National Team member) and trusts his judgment as to the quality of the player in question This was the case with freshmen Carlos Lee and Andy Salandy. Grayson picked these two men as of good character, educational motivation, and, of course, high skill level. "Athletics is an arm or branch of a university that is an educational endeavor taken by students," Rex said. "We strive to broaden the awareness of our (American) kids; they need to experience different cultures." Rex claimed that, if hired to win at any cost, he would need more foreign talent. With his "light foreign mixture," however, he can have a foreign influence along with the strengthening of American players. The result is the upgrading of soccer here in the U.S. Today, more and more teams look to foreign players for the improvement of their programs. Schools such as South Carolina, Virginia, Duke, and North Carolina State are putting more of their resources into their soccer programs. Fifteen years ago, the emphasis on soccer programs on a collegiate level was not there. This new, recent emphasis is good in that the sport is gaining sup port within the universities. This will hopefully be followed by support from Americans. The differentiating aspect of players from other countries is that they grow up with soccer. Instead of pick-up basketball games, they have pick-up soccer games. As Rex pointed out, the parks in the United States try to utilize the property j they buy in their own efficient ways. Their logic is, "Why should we lay out a 120 x 75-yard soccer field when we can build 10 basketball courts?" This state of mind is changing, however. "The youth movement today is phenomenal," Rex said. "The sport only needs better media exposure." Rex believes that Appalachian, being a regional university, has the need to develop soccer above a high school level due to the fact that it contains a great deal of educational value. The recruited players come from their countries in hopes of using their skills in the sport to carry them through an education. As a rule, they consider their education a job. The adjustments which some of the players must make can be quite humorous. According to Rex, Tarn had to make some adjustments which were probably serious to him, but funny to the average American. "The very first thing Christian Tarn wanted to do upon arriving was to go to a McDonald's," Rex said. The players also must adapt to the elevation. This is a big factor in that, no matter what type of shape a person is in, they can still become tired due to the unfamiliar elevation with less oxygen. Along the lines of higher elevation comes a colder climate. Some of the athletes come to ASU having never seen snow. On the first cold, brisk night, Christian came out for practice with sweats, a hat, gloves, and everything," Rex said. "By his senior year, however, he w°uld simply wear a tee-shirt, shorts, socks, and shoes; they just have to adjust," In his foreign recruits for the '87-'88 soccer season, Rex was looking for a striking forward and midfielder, each of whom could defend and attack. He also wanted speed. From the nine games which have already been played, it would seem Rex should be satisfied. Lee has produced in the area of goal-scoring and Salandy has asserted much control over the midfield. Hopefully, these foreign players will accomplish four things for the team and themselves: 1) They will receive a good education, 2) compliment their new mates on Appalachian's soccer team, 3) be beneficial to ASU soccer, 4) and, finally, acquire the reader's interest and attract you to Conrad Stadium on days other than Saturdays. Appalachian State's soccer team fell to the University of South Carolina on Sunday as the Gamecocks proved worthy of their ranking of third in the nation. The Mountaineers, 4-5-1, held South Carolina to one goal in the first half, but the Gamecocks soon wore them down and won going away, 6-0. Early in the second half, ASU's John Cerak took a shot which seemed well-placed, but South Carolina's goalkeeper came up with a brilliant save. The breaking point for ASU came as the Gamecocks counter­ attacked for their second goal. This, as ASU Coach Art Rex admitted, was not an unexpected^ occurrence. "We did the best we eoidd. They had better, quicker athletes. Their offense was just too good." —Art Rex ASU soccer coach "South Carolina has torn teams apart all year long," Rex said.

Each of them came up with two goals apiece to pace their fast, skilled offense. Most of the USC goals were scored off centering passes. The Gamecocks were quick on the wings and weak­ ened ASU's wing fullbacks as the game progressed. As South Carolina became more dominant, they could afford to gam­ ble and send more people to attack the goal area on centering passes. The Apps' defense simply could not cover all of the attacking players. Appalachian had five shots to South Carolina's 25. ASU's offense was, as Rex put it, erratic and without the force exemplified by the Gamecocks. "We did the best we could," Rex said. "They had better, quicker athletes. Their offense was just too good."

ASU Coach Bob Pollock's men's squad finished first in the seven-team field to capture their secoad championship of the season. Earlier this year, the Apps won the Davidson Invitational. Pollock was pleased with the results of the meet and his squad's perfor­ mance. "Despite the cold and windy conditions, I thought we ran well," Pollock said. "We've still got a lot of things to work on, but we're moving in the right direction." Dean Duncan paced the Mountaineers, winning the 8,000 meter race in 25:40.5, seventh-best on ASU's all-time list. Duncan finished a full 11 seconds ahead of his closest competitor, Ron Shaiko of the Jock Shop. Duncan's teammate, Pete Vandenburg, finished third in a time of 25:54.9, 10th best in ASU cross country history. "We had the season's best output," Pollock said. "Between our top five men, we had a 1:12 time span. "We've got to keep the tempo going. We've got a 25 second time span bet­ ween our top four runners. We've got to get that fifth runner to close the gap more." The ASU ladies didn't fare as well as the men, but ASO women's Coach John Weaver was pleased with his squad's showing Saturday. The Lady Mountaineers placed third behind ACC powers Georgia Tech and Duke. "Despite the cold and windy conditions, I thought we ran well. We've still got a lot of things to work on, but we're moving in the right direction." —ASU Coach Bob Pollock —^——•— "I was very pleased with the way we ran," Weaver said. "We ran against some very good competition." Georgia Tech's Bridget Koster was the champion of the 5,000 meter run in a time of 18:01. ASU's Beth Ruggles finished second, seven seconds behind Koster. Ruggles' time of 18:08 is an ASU record at the Bass Lake trek. The mark broke that of former Lady App Denise Coholich by 11 seconds. ASU's second-best time came from Vanessa Tyson for a sixth-place overall finish. "We're improving our times every week, so I'm happy," Weaver said. "We are headed in the right direction." The 30-degree temperature Saturday morning was a factor in the race's out­ come; however, Pollock and Weaver thought their squads did well considering the conditions. "Everybody had to run in it," Weaver said. "I don't think it bothered anybody that much." "Maybe since it was cold, our guys ran faster to finish up and get warm," Pollock said. Whatever the reason, Pollock was glad to get the championship as both the men and women travel to South Carolina for their next meet October 17.

The Lady Apps put away UT-Martin, Alabama-Hunstville, and Livingston College after suffering a first-round loss to SE Missouri State. The three straight wins hurrelled ASU into the finals against SE Missouri. The Lady Apps, after loosing the first game, won the last two to overcome SE Missouri and take the championship. "The first match we beat ourselves as we have done in the past," ASU Coach Traci Blankenship said. 'After the match we talked about why we were here and what we wanted to accomplish. What's great about a tournament is that there are no three day delays after our talks. Two hours after our talk, we were on the courts playing again. I think the freshness of the talk in the players heads really made a difference." Experience and tempo proved to be deciding factors in Lady Apps victory. "The team pulled together very well," Blankenship said. "We used ex­ perienced players in the tournament and played a high-tempo game. We had complete control over the matches. They tried to play a lower tempo game on us but we forced the tempo up." Blankenship knew that her Lady Apps would best be able to make a run play­ ing a faster tempo. "I think a low tempo flow contributed to our errors in the first game and to our errors in the past," she said. "The high tempo helped us in the execution of plays that we were not comfortable with in the past which also contributed to our victory." The two setters, Kris Zubay and Val Patterson, are still working well for Blankenship's squad. "The two setters are still proving themselves and are working great," Blankenship said. "The combination plays we're able to do now are making a big difference." Zubay and Angela Haas were voted to the all-tournament team. "Kris Zubay and Angela Haas had an outstanding tournament," Blanken­ ship said. "Angela Haas had an excellent offensive weekend. Donna Joye's defense is coming around. Her dig percentage increases with every game and her offense is coming around too." Kim Warren was moved from outside to middle blocker, where despite star­ ting slowly, she has come on to give the Lady Apps added offensive punch. "Kim started off slowly, which was understandable," Blankenship said. "It usually takes a few weeks to get comfortable with a new position." ASU continues their road trip with a Southern Conference match tonight at I urman. The Lady Apps travel to ETSU and UT-Chattanooga to complete the swing.

OCTOBER 6, 1987 Mustang Continued from Page 5 reforms, spoke during a dark time in college sports. About the time Pye assumed office, the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) suspended athletes from Ohio State, Pittsburgh and Alabama for allegedly taking money from sports agents. During the last several years, athletes have been involved in a seem­ ingly endless string of drug problems, crimes, classroom cheating, transcript fixings and other unsavory incidents. In response, the American Council jn Education (ACE) organized a jroup of college presidents to work 'or reform, and Ohio, Michigan, California and Texas have passed aws to punish sports agents and cam­ pus sports boosters who violate SCAA rules. More ominously for campus sport, i Media General-Associated Press joll foun,d that half of all Americans relieve intercollegiate athletics are nveremphasized in U.S. education. "College graduates were far more likely to say that sports are overem­ phasized in college than those with less of an education," Media General researcher Dorothy Cook said of the poll of 1,304 adults. "What the public is demanding," Gamecocks observed Sheldon Steinbach of the ACE, "is more stringent rules, and most schools are responding on their own." Steinbach cited Virginia Tech, which this summer passed tough new regulations of athletes' and boosters' behavior after being punished for violating NCAA recruiting rules, as setting a valuable new standard for campus rules. "College sports are definitely mov­ ing toward more regulations," Marc Dreyfors of the Institute for Trends Research in Wilmington, N.C. added. The June, 1986, cocaine-related death of University of Maryland basketball star Len Bias, the revela­ tions that several Georgia athletes were given special academic treatment of the firing of a New Mexico coach for altering some athletes' transcripts have seemed to sour public opinion as much as the SMU scandal. "Public reaction to the SMU scan­ dal was very important," Dreyfors said. Last year, the NCAA found SMU boosters gave $61,000 in illicit payments to 13 football players, "loaned" them cars and apartments, and then tried to cover it all up. Texas Governor Bill Clements ap­ parently knew about and approved the payments while he served on SMU's Board of Govenors. MINOR'S PRINTING 115 W.

"Yes, we're hopeful that past mistakes won't be repeated. There will be no special admissions for any athlete who does not meet SMU's re­ quirements and there will be no more payments." Observers were waiting anxiously to hear what Pye, a Duke professor who took the SMU job after the scandal forced out former SMU president, L. Donald Shields, as well as SMU's football coach and athletic director in the last year, would do about sports. His answer to SMU's freshmen: essentially ignore the past offenses. Pye made a "plea for assistance" to SMU freshmen to help recruit pro­ mising athletes for SMU from their old high schools, a switch from the high-pressure recruiting of high school seniors by boosters. Pye also promised he will soon unveil a 10-point program for improv­ ing academics at the school. Citadel in an overtime game which moved the Mountaineers to 1-1-1 in the Southern Conference. This 1-1 tie probably took a great deal out of the team for Sunday's match. "We've had to play a lot of good teams up until now," Rex said. "The teams are more equal now, and we should be able to play well in the following games and dictate tempo more than we have in the last few." Appalachian has nine games left and Rex hopes to score 20 to 25 goals in the remaining matches. "I had said at the beginning of the season that 50 goals would be pretty good," Rex said. "We can do it if we get on track."

The news quoted statistics saying that the strongest opposition to a woman as president came from other women over 60. Appalachian Columnist Suicide: It's too permanent a solution In one of my classes last week, there was a discus­ sion about women and their role in society. The class consists mostly of seniors and the opi­ nions presented were relatively mature and rational. However, our professor confronted us with the fact that in some of his other classes, there were many young women who believed it was unnatural or somehow wrong for a woman to be president. Last week Representative Pat Schroeder dropped out of the race for the Democratic Presidential nomination. She cited obvious reasons such as a late start, short-falls in fundraising and lack of largescale support. Perhaps the reason she did not get that sup­ port is there are still women, as well as men, who hold antiquated views about sex roles. On the news that night, there were interviews with people about Schroeder and the idea of a woman president. There were the usual guys-at-the-poolhall The college years are often called the best years of a person's life— but too many times they are filled with stress, anxiety and despair. Many students find themselves so emotionally distraught that they feel they have no one to turn to for strength or a listening ear These feelings are common to almost all students at one time or another as they try to balance independence, academics, work and rela­ tionships Frequently unexpected tragedies arise and the careful balance falls into disarray. There are many programs on campus designed to assist students as they try to cope with life. The Counseling Center offers a variety of programs from stress management to basic one-on-one counseling to elp students put the world in its proper perspective. The Counseling Center offers trained, objective listeners who want to help students choose the best way for the individual rather than dictate a path or moralize past actions. The Wellness Center concentrates on unifying the six parts of a per-' son—social, occupational, spiritual, physical, intellectual and emo- • tional. The Center helps people heal the whole person rather than just the separate parts. The community offers the Watauga Mental Health Center to people needing emotional assistance and the OASIS Crisis center to those who need shelter or counseling in case of rape and/or domestic violence.

Students need to vote Town Council and mayoral elections are being held today Students who are registered to vote can and should vote for the can­ didates of their choice. Voter registration cards indicate the location where voters are to vote. There are many issues on campus and in the community which will affect students. A few of these are the possibility of building an air­ port at Buck Ridge, four-laning U.S. 421 and retracting leased park­ ing lots from the university. There are enough registered students as ASU to turn a vote. This is a Power that comes with a great deal of responsibility to the university and the town. All voters, not just students, are responsible for select­ ing honest, capable and wise officials who have the interests of their constituents at heart.

She went on to say my opin­ ion is not worth anything because I am not an authority on the subject See OPINION Page 9 The Constitution is color blind By AL HUMAN Appalachian Columnist Comedian Will Rogers once said "The problem with people is not that they are ignorant, but that they 'know' things that just ain't so." When it comes to the U.S. Constitu­ tion, this is no exception. One of'the myths about the Con­ stitution that people 'know that just ain't so' was expressed in a pretty scurrillous manner in the editorial car­ toon on page 12 of The Appalachian. The myth has it that our U.S. Con­ stitution is a racist document sanc­ tioning slavery and making the black man three-fifths of a man. This myth is often perpetrated unwittingly by even the most wellintentioned intelligent people. It is also frequently perpetrated by those who have nothing but venom for America, such as NAACP Chairman Benjamin Hooks and Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall. In any event, it is a myth all the same and it needs clearing up once and for all. Article I, Section 2, Clause (3) is perhaps one of the most misunderstood portions of the U.S. Constitution. What it actually says is as follows: "Representatives and direct taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included in this Union, according to their respective numbers, which shall be deter­ mined by adding to the whole number of free persons, including those bound to ser­ vice for a term of years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three-fifths of all persons." In this clause, representatives and direct taxes were to be divided up and allotted according to a census count­ ing all free persons within the States, indentured servants, excluding Indians not taxed, and counting three-fifths of the slaves. Nothing in this clause says anything about what counts as a person or what doesn't. Neither is any reference made to race. Moreover, slaves are referred to as persons in this clause and as nothing else. To insinuate that this clause makes the black man three-fifths of a man is to imply a secret belief in two doubt­ ful notions. One, it implies the legal positivist belief that only citizens of the body politic have moral stand­ ing—a belief which is a blueprint for slavery. Two, it implies the belief that man is not an individual, but a collec­ tive being who can only exist in the collective he belongs to, the very belief upon which racism is based. When one considers the context within which Article I, Section 2, Clause (3) was made, the reason it was inserted, and the peole who supported it, one sees that Article I, Section 2, Clause (3) was actually anti-slavery. ' The main body of the Founding Fathers knew fully well that slavery contradicted the principles of the Declaration of Independence and of their Revolution against Britain. One need only look in the diaries and biographies of the Founders to see the guilt they felt at having held slaves and to see that many of them freed their slaves either in their lifetime or in their wills. However, because the Constitution had to be a unanimous document slavery was ignored in order to attain the signatures of those few Founders who did advocate slavery. So the best thing the anti-slavery delegates could do was to limit the power of the Slaveholding States in the House of Representatives, thereby weakening the political base of the slave States. Article I, Section 2 Clause (3) was a means to that end. ' The anti-slavery delegates of First Constitutional Convention! as James Madison and James til were the actual supporters of 4 not counting slaves in the Census reason they did this was because! Census did count the slaves, this States would have more repre tatives in the House and w thereby have a greater political to oppose attempts to abolish sla and the slave trade. Also, the anti-slavery dele! opposed counting any of the sla* the Census because they unders that to count people in a Census have no vote and to alio Representatives to them on the' of that Census is to make a m°( of the concept of representation addition, counting the slaves f® purposes of representation * have given the slave States an i« tive to increase the number of si rather than reduce it. By contrast, the pro-sla delegates such as Charles Pi®jj supported the counting of all slaves in the Census. They knew well that it would mean they ® have 50 percent of the seats la House as opposed to 41 percent" slaves were not counted. The I® between the pro-slavery and 1 slavery forces resulted in the j promise that three-fifths of the si would be counted, resulting ,n slave States having 47 percent o House seats. This wasn't the des outcome of the anti-slavery deW See COLOR BLIND P'l Wise advice to the lips of a fool To the Editor: I was appalled upon reading one o your recent articles concerning the confirmation of Judge Bork to the Supreme Court. It need not be implied that, since Judge Bork is a conservative, every law established by the previous liberally ideological court will be overturned. On the contrary Judge Bork is a proponent ot judicial restraint and sees the power of the Supreme Court engulf­ ing states' rights. Being a strict constructionist of the Constitution, Judge Bork's philosophy is that laws concerning highly controversial issues such as abortion should be decided by the states. Since the people directly elect their state judges, legislators, and governor, the views of the individual states populations will have a maio impact upon their elected decision makers. In that same article you also men­ tioned, ,n summation, that the Holy Bible, along with the Constitution is full of contradictions. Mr. Fal if you can find any contradict the Holy Bible without taking meaning out of context, then inform your readers. If not, tl proves to me all along that y° not as "intellectually enlightc1 as you may think. As the Bib' plainly states, "The lips of the disperse knowledge: but the he the foolish doeth not so."

Coni sidering how many people come to this school for one reason or another (staff, faculty and ad­ ministration included) the number of practical jokers can amount to a substantial peanut gallery and their numbers seem to grow every year. So far, instinct has been overrid­ den by good sense, and practical joking or "hilarious vandalism" has been kept to a minimum, but I've noticed that the water fountains were full of suds again! I think I can speak for most peo­ ple when I say that good jokes are cute, great jokes are funny and anyone willing to walk on the wild side in the name of good clean fun won't be soon forgotten. But #« here doesn't it bother you when those same jokes make it hard to keep our campus looking good? Another example of flagrant disregard for property and the rights of others is the periodic closing of the TV lounge in the Student Union.

Many of our "authorities" on matters lack such experience. Don't get me wrong. I have a great deal of respect for the opinions of educated experts on all subjects. I equally, however, believe anyone can have an opinion or be right when the "experts" are wrong. Everyone is entitled to an opinion and everyone should also be entitled to the right to have their opinion heard. Not merely listened to and discredited but actually thought about and analyzed from a neutral perspec­ tive. Some very famous and revolu­ tionary people have not been experts or authorities in their given fields. Thomas Edison was no expert in the field of music or sound reproduction and yet he invented the phonograph. In our society we need to open our minds to the opinions of others. We must also let go of our fear of speak­ ing our own opinions or ideas to the world. The worst thing that could happen is no one would pay attention to us or someone may say we are wrong. So? We are all wrong at some time in our lives but if we don't take a few chances how will we know if we are right? and the author of the story I was commenting on is. I realize I am not a registered authority on anything. Few people my age are, but does that mean our opin­ ions are worthless? If this is the case then we are at the mercy of the socalled registered experts. I am somewhat of a television junkie and one of my favorite shows is Dragnet. In one of the episodes of Dragnet a college professor who had studied the effects of drugs for years came to the conclusion that the par­ ticular drugs he had studied were not physically addictive or dangerous. One of his students was an ex-user and tried to explain to the professor and others that the drugs were dangerous. The professor merely dismissed the man's ideas because he was not an expert. Later in the show the professor learned that the drugs were indeed dangerous despite all that he had learned. You are probably wondering how much faith can be put in a televi­ sion show. Quite a bit since all the old Dragnets are true stories.

And nt if hile State and local constitutions H id federal regulations had to be d hanged when slavery, segregation, e fl* e si in of1' desf :iegaii and official discrimination were abolished, not one word in the original text of the Constitution had to be changed. BiacK Abolitionist Frederick Douglass considered it "a slander" upon the Founding Fathers to accuse their Constitution of being racist and pro-slavery. He said: "In that instru­ ment, I hold there is neither warrant, license, nor sanction of the hateful thing." His words ring equally true today to any who will listen.

Boone Town Council rriember Saul Chase told Senators more involvement in town affairs was needed and a noticeable "slip" in concern has occurred. "Since we got beer in Boone, students have felt that nothing else needs to be done," Chase said. "You may be here only four years, but because there will always be students to carry on what you establish, you need to stay involved in town affairs.' "Just as there are people on the council who voted to put beer in Boone, there are those who can vote to have it put out again," Chase added. "Your right to register was challenged. You won that challenge. You have the right to participate in voting for who will represent you." Chase mentioned that the upcoming Town Council and mayoral elections on October 6 were the only elections where students make a significant difference in results. "There is no other election you participate in, presiden­ tial or otherwise, where you can make a difference or im­ pact upon the outcome," he said. Chase described Boone's business community as "floundering" and that it was not responding to student needs. "Our goal is to make the town as attractive as possible in order to attract customers, however, it is not our responsibility to give money to downtown merchants to paint the front of their building," he added. In other matters, Chase commented that the town was in need of a better fire prevention program. "Some members of the Fire Department have presented a proposal for a fire chief and other paid officials," he said. Chase said last year's fire incident involving the death of two ASU students may not have happened had there been more fire department officials working. "ASU has financially contributed to this project," he added. The project involved a switch from volunteer to paid staff. Another issue Chase brought up concerns parking. Chase said there is not enough parking downtown to ac­ commodate students who are unable to park on campus. , "Students are parking downtown and having to move their cars every two hours," he said. "We need to get ASU to find more spaces to keep you from doing that." One Senator suggested a parking deck, but Chase said it was too expensive and the Town Council was not planning on building one anytime soon. In other Senate business, A.P.P.S. President Lane Newsome, East Hall RA Mary Gates and A.P.P.S. member Kristine Hippler were appointed to the Student Publications Council. "The ads in The Appalachian are too overdone," Newsome said. "Ads tend to overshadow the news and features and take away the students' interest." "There are more things happening on campus than the news department is covering. There's too much feature," he added. "Couldn't some of the issues of the paper have only one page of ads to allow for more stories?" Hippler said. "I think the reporting in The Appalachian is too biased and there needs to be more news and less feature." Newsome said the new editor in chief needed to reflect the same qualities found in the present Editor in Chief Portia Healy. SGA SENATE: Kristine Hippler, Mary Gates and Lane Newsome were all approved by the SGA senate to serve on the Publications Council this year. The Publications Council is responsible for selecting the Jim Kohlor editors of The Appalachian and The Rhododen­ dron. The Senate also discussed some of the parking problems that ASU students are experiencing. Senator Sanford, Buchanan attend deficit forum By J.

Power outages cause problems on campus By SUSAN SAYETTA Appalachian Staff Writer Last week, the ASU campus and town of Boone experienced two power outages. The supplier responsible for the outage was Blue Ridge Electric. "We were energizing a transformer," a Blue Ridge Electric employee said. "It was not a planned outage and should not be expected to happen again." They were unavailable for any other comments. On campus, students experienced the outages with light surges and loss of current information being processed in personal computers. The main computer system was left unharmed. "As far as I know, it didn't mess anything up," Manager of Systems Pro­ gram Terry Combs said. "The people that were currently using the computer had to re-enter the data. Most people had recovery so the only thing they had to do was re-start the system which is irritating." "It just interrupts service for staff and students," he added. The same recovery process was used at the ASU steam plant. "According to what side of town it goes out on, we lose power," ASU Plant Maintenance Supervisor Rich Holmes said. "For the campus, it's the west side. When we lose power, we go on emergency power and have to start over again. See OUTAGES Page 3 Buchanan said there is a moral dimension to the problems. "Those of us who live in the here and now are eating up goods and ser­ vices that members of tax paying groups in future periods will pay for," he said. "We are as political decision makers choosing to enjoy benefits without paying the cost, thereby shift­ ing the cost on to others who cannot express their own opinions. Because of all this, Buchanan strongly advocates a constitutional amendment requiring a balanced budget. Senator Sanford prefaced his remarks with a few comments about ASU. "I'm happy to see Appalachian State University moving in the direc­ tion of public services," he said. "I've been very proud of this univer­ sity, as many of you know, for a long time." The deficit has been growing for over 20 years. "The gap between income and spending was about one percent in the Kennedy-Johnson years, about two See FORUM Page 2 Immunizations required of new students By NICOLE PARSONS Appalachian Staff Writer As of yesterday there are 160 students who have not had their immunization shots. These students have withdrawn and until their records are cleared by the ASU Infirmary and Student Affairs they cannot be readmitted. This is a state law required for all higher learning institutions in North Carolina. "We are not trying to get rid of people. They must comply," Registrar Brooks Mcleod said. "We are extending a law that has applied to public schools for seven to eight years and are generalizing it up into the college level," he added. Nine hundred students have been notified since July 1 and had until yesterday, September 30 to get immunized. Students can be con­ sidered for readmission after their shots depending on the number of days they have missed and by'talking with their professors. Otherwise, there is no refund, nor can the student be eligible to register for the Spring semester. "The immunization law was brought up all summer long during parent's orientation and letters were sent to the students and student's home address," Director of Health Services Dr. Evan Ashby said. "Some students think they (the student) won't really need the shot or 'I'll get around to it,' " Ashby said. Ashby added they did have a prob­ lem with "special students" getting the word who did not go through admission. Students have been able to obtain their shots through the ASU Infir­ mary and local health department. The different immunization shots vary by age. Under age 18, polio is required. Over the age of 18 until age 30, measles, mumps, DT and a booster shot within the past 10 years is required. Also, ASU requires a tuberculi shot in the last year from time of admittance.

Watts also said the sophomore, junior and senior classes are larger because of larger freshman classes in the past. "Last fall we had one of the largest freshman classes ever. Those students are now sophomores, so we have a very large sophomore class," he said. "We purposely kept the freshman class smaller this year," Watts added. "We felt that in a larger class we couldn't give the students the individual attention they need." 11-YEAR RESIDENT CREDIT ENROLLMENT Year Even though ASU accepted fewer freshmen, more applied than ever before.

Wasiolek said an ethics review board may show mercy to an undergraduate for Biden's offense, but, for law school students, ig­ norance is not an acceptable defense. "Law students are expected to know how to footnote a research paper," Wasiolek said. The University of Texas's Measure­ ment and Evaluation Center said its new practice of photographing students had helped decreased cheating on placement exams. Texas also okayed, without endors­ ing, a teaching assistant's practice of searching students' backpacks as they enter his class to take tests. Yale has suspended eight students for the fall semester for allegedly cheating on a take-home physics exam last spring. JIMMY SMITH m . * for Boone Town Count Experience: and a half percent in the Nixon-FordCarter years, and an unthinkable five percent in the Reagan years," San ford said. "Leadership in a democracy comes from the executive branch," he said. "We have to rely on the executive if we want to get things moving and in this case, presidential leadership is absolutely essential." Sanford also discussed what he called the foolishness of deficit spend­ ing. We re not only mortgaging our future, putting the burden on our children and grandchildren; surely that's immoral, but maybe the worst thing about this tremendous debt is that we owe a great deal of it to foreign investors," he said. If a great number of those people decided to withdraw their investments from our bonds we would find ourselves in a disastrous position," he added. Sanford criticized the ineffec­ tiveness of present budget balancing measures. Gramm-Rudman-Hollings has been hailed as some magic potion which would instantly control the budget deficit," Sanford said. "Actually, it's a fraud. But it's all we have." fund specifically directed towards reduction of the debt. All extra new tax revenues crated by the closing of loopholes would be deposited there instead of being available to spend. Sanford was critical of the actions of President Reagan in regards to the budget. "He does not need to be forced by a constitutional amendment to balance the budget; he has full power to balance it," Sanford said. "He's never sent over a balanced budget to congress since he's been president." Each year he has proposed more spending than congress was willing to go along with. Congress has cut the president every time," he added. Sanford said the problem was a lack of political backbone and some source of artificial courage was need­ ed, but the leadership must still come from the executive branch. Sanford suggests the creation of afund specifically directed towards reduction of the debt. All extra new tax revenues created by the closing of loopholes would be deposited there instead of being available to spend. All the self sustaining trust funds, such as Social Security, highway fund and others would be moved to a special budget line, because they carry themselves and form a sizeable por­ tion of the budget. A debt budget would be formed separate from the operating budget. Sanford said these measures would simplify the debt picture and make the problem much easier to solve. "I think we could indeed have a balanced budget amendment," Sanford said. "I think we could also shortcut that and have a balanced budget statute with teeth in it." Sanford said he would vote for an amendment, but it is not strictly necessary. If we had that kind of artificial backbone then we probably could balance the budget. I don't think we need to go that far, but I'm prepared to," fie said. 6 y e a r s — Boone Town Planning Commission 2 y e a r s a s Chairman Chairman for 3 years — ASU Faculty S e n a t e Active in church a n d community ASU Faculty Member since 1968 Planning for a befter Boone..

Though he touched on South African investment, his speech ;entered upon the issue of American nvolvement in Central America. On April 28,1987, U.S. citizen Ben­ jamin Linder was murdered in a Con­ tra ambush near the town of San Jose de Borcay in northern Nicaragua. Several of Linder's friends and members of his family produced a video in which he interviewed Nicaraguan citizens as well as filming the funeral procession. During the course of the video, various speakers recited incidents dur­ ing Ben's personal involvement in Nicaragua in relation to the lives of the Nicaraguan people. After the video Linder elaborated upon the motives of his brother's murder. "There were two reasons why my brother was killed," Linder said. "One was because he was against the Contra war and the second was because he saw Nicaragua as a coun­ try in which the poor are gaining their control." It's just a matter of pushing the start button." Off campus, the town of Boone felt the power outage. At the Watauga County Hospital, where a main computer system is installed, there was no effect. "It hasn't caused any real problems," Assistant Administrator Richard Sparks said. "Everything here is on generators which we spent a lot of money on to prepare for such circumstances." More people have survived cancer than now live in the City of Los Angeles. AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY•We are winning "I am not speaking against my country, but for it, by speaking in behalf of the overwhelming majority," Linder said. Linder then attempted to prove the existence of the overwhelming majori­ ty by collectively naming the various campus organizations throughout the UNC system, as well as those on the national scale. The Student Action Committee at ASU was formed this year. The presi­ dent of the organization is Will Cox. The group's primary goal is to create awareness among the university students concerning the crisis in Cen­ tral America. These students who adhere to the problem in Central America will become concerned, and hopefully directlv infiltrate the collec­ tive population masses, thereby developing an outspoken, overwhelm­ ing majority.

"It's sinking deeper," he thought, "Well, I guess it doesn't matter. Can't fly anyway." He turned and looked out into the poisonous mist that made up the planet's atmosphere. "I wish I could take my helmet off," he thought. "I'm tired of this suit." Logan sat down on a rotten tree trunk and stared into the bluish foliage. "I wish I was on the beach," he thought. Then suddenly, the alien swamp turned into a long stretch of beach. Logan was sitting on a fold up chair, beside Christine. She was beautiful in her bikini. "Pass me the suntan lotion, please?" he asked her. "Of course I will," she answered, handing it to him. He was just about to say something else when a creature came tearing out of the foliage. I he thing looked something like a small Tyrannosaurus Rex. Logan was shocked out of his dream. "Another visit from a native, and he came without calling too!" he said. Quickly, Logan got up and ran to the pile of A-E Suit attachments he had salvaged from his ship. He plunged both hands into box-like devices. The objects were compact hand-held generators, each capable of dealing out a powerful jolt of energy. The explorer would have to use these as weapons, the suit's laser system had malfunctioned a week ago. The large reptile-like creature was almost in range. "Come on Lizard," Logan whispered. "Come to Papa." The animal was nine feet tall, with greenish-brown skin,, and it breathed the poisonous air with ease. The human envied it for being blessed with this ability. The creature came closer, it eyed the human in his armor-like suit, and tried to figure out where to bite first. Logan ran at the beast and fired his makeshift weapons. Energy bolts cracked as they shot towards the creature. It roared as the bolts struck its hide. The human kept up a steady stream of energy from both generators. "Fry you Lizard, fry!" Logan yelled. The animal stood its ground, howling in pain as the energy kept engulfing its body. Finally, the beast's heart gave out and it fell. "Ha! Dead!" Logan shouted, "Another Lizard sent to Lizard Heaven!" He went back to the rotten tree and had dinner with Christine. It was quite a night. Another day passed. Logan was talking to his Commander. "Yes Sir! I killed three Lizards Sir!

He watched as the bushes parted and Christine stepped out in front of him. Logan couldn't believe his eyes. "Christine, honey, is it really you?" She smiled as she approached him.

Except for young females, smoking has declined among all major age, race and sex groups. Although the percentage of women smokers is declining, in absolute numbers more women are smoking, and smoking more than they have in the past, causing lung cancer death rates for women to rise. In 1985, lung cancer surpassed breast cancer as U.S. women's number one cancer killer. In 1976, 22,000 American women died of lung cancer. The decline in consumption does not spell uniformly good news, however, because the average person who smokes is smoking more heavily. According to the American Cancer Society, evidence accumulated throughout the past decade shows smokers endanger not only their own health but also the health of those around them. The irritating effects of second-hand smoke have prompted many organizations to take steps to protect nonsmokers in the workplace and public areas. People who are exposed to other's tobacco smoke, called sidestream smoke, absorb nicotine, carbon monoxide and other constituents just as smokers do, although in smaller amounts. Several investigators have shown that some of these consti­ tuents, including tar and nicotine, are found in greater concentrations in sidestream than in mainstream smoke inhaled directly. Recent findings in­ dicate that exposure to tobacco smoke can cause disease, including lung cancer, in otherwise healthy adults.

Yet, Nabisco does not have to in­ form any Federal Regulatory Agency, or consumers what these chemical additives might be, or whether or not there has been any study of how these chemicals may affect humans when heated and in­ haled as smoke, either directly or indirectly by those around them.

She, of course, 'iid already had plans for Friday night (the big Greensboro Page football game) so °tri. we decided to meet for a late movie. 1 sat at home for awhile, talking to my Jse parents, then I went up to the theatre. A person's got to have some fun on a Friday night, right? Wrong. 1 should've stayed home. u,o» I'd been looking forward to the new Molly Ringwald movie. I like her. She inuinj played a kid who was misunderstood by her parents in Sixteen Candles, and a rich, misunderstood kid in I he Breakfast Club, and a socially misunderstood n kid in Pretty in Pink. What I don't understand is why she agreed to make her tplt latest movie, The Pick-up Artist. ing It was dumb. Don't get me wrong, I like dumb movies. You know, those lity things like the CBS After School Specials. This movie was dumb and bad. 1 Robert Downey was Jack Jericho. He went around chasing girls and saying ' % dumb things. Sometimes he'd get their phone number, and sometimes he Pie, wouldn't. He supposedly had a job, which sometimes he'd go to and is sometimes he wouldn't. ever. He sees Molly Ringwald (her character's name is Randi something) at a bar where some sleazy guy wants her to spend the night with some other sleazy guy because her dad owes the second sleazy guy $25,418 or something like that, and it's the first sleazy guy's job to collect payment. She refuses because it's against her principles. It's not against her principles, however, to spend a morning parking in Jack's car with him the next day; after which, she thanks him, gets out of the car and refuses to give him her telephone number, because all he's interested in is picking up girls for cheap conquests. Huh? I also have to add that a convertible in the middle of a public park in broad daylight is not high on my list of classy things to do. So the movie goes on; Jack chases her, she runs and the sleazy guys want money. Her father is a hopeless drunk. 1 think we're supposed to feel compas­ sion and pity for him, I think. The sleazy guys finally give Molly until noon the next day to come up with the money. She goes to Atlantic City with $500 and soon turns it into $13,000. She then bets all that on one hand and... anyone? anyone? loses it. But of course. So they sell the convertible (that of parking fame) and win the money. Meanwhile, the sleazy/bad guys have her father, but no one seems too concerned. Actually, no one is concerned with anything in this movie, including the plot, story development and character development. I won't bore anyone with the rest of the movie, but anyone sorely lacking in imagination could figure it out. So if you get the urge to go see this movie, save the money and go home and see your parents. Or maybe save the money and call your parents collect. J Fetchin Bones moves H'Appy's By SUSAN SHOEMAKER Bones entered they brought an amaz­ ing amount of energy with them. The "You're going to interview who?" combination of driving guitar riffs I was asked for the 40 millionth time. and Nicholl's childlike buoyancy and "Fetchin' Bones," I answered (also exuberance left very few people seated for the 40 millionth time). I really after the first ten minutes of the per­ knew nothing about the band except formance. A wave of slam dancing began to that they are progressive and I love progressive music.

The second the opening act band passed into people who original­ left the stage, people began to push ly didn't even like the style of music their way towards the front. With that Fetchin' Bones writes. good reason, too—when Fetchin' "I found it really refreshing Appalachian Staff Writer because that's not the kind of music I normally listen to... she (Nicholls) had a lot of energy and it really im­ pressed me," said Rhonda Hill. When the two hour performance ended after the encore, both the band and the crowd were exhausted. Everyone that I spoke to after the band left the stage agreed that it was definitely the best concert given so far this year. "It was like seeing R.E.M. and Motorhead rolled into one. I'd like to add that bands like that should come (here) more often," said Tom Wallis. Talking to the band was just as in­ teresting as watching the show. The band seemed to have reached a con­ sensus on most issues and were very laid back, with Nicholls playing almost a "spokesperson." When ask­ ed who writes the songs, the group ex­ pressed surprise that any one person should be responsible for writing them. In Fetchin' Bones, song-writing is an ensemble effort that generally begins with the guitar and expands out to the lyrics and drum parts with each person adding his/her own bit.; All the members had been in pro­ gressive bands since the late 1970*s and see playing other band's cover tunes both as a beginning and a possi-I ble dead end. Nicholls summed up the bands' at­ titude about song-writing by saying, "The act of song-writing is like paint­ ing a picture... Singing other group's songs (cover tunes) is like painting pictures by numbers." Of course, I can personally relate to anyone who thinks that Starship is "the worst band in existence" and loves Led Zeppelin. Other groups that Fetchin' Bones enjoys are the Beastie Boys, This Mortal Cort, Cutting Crew, Crowded House and Jesus and Mary Jane. They also like R.E.M. and have just returned this past Thursday from visiting the group in Athens, Ga. They even toured with R.E.M. last year. Nicholls expressed dissatisfac­ tion with the fact that R.E.M. has not gained more notoriety as a group. OMD's new album not up to par By SID Appalachian Staff Writer I remember when the movie "Pret­ ty in Pink" was released and Or­ chestral Manoevers in the Dark hit the top of the charts with the single "If You Leave." This single from the Pretty in Pink Soundtrack was their biggest hit ever. OMD has had some excellent songs and I've been an OMD fan ever since heard the album Crush. After Crush, they released The Pacific Age which I like even better. When I heard that OMD had released a new album, I rushed out to buy it. After hearing their new tape, I am almost convinced that this isn't the same group. The first thing that I noticed was the number of band members that participated on the new tape. Two main members, Paul Humphreys and Andy McCluskey, were the listed band members on the new tape, while The Pacific Age listed six members. I believe this reduction of band members definitely affected the music on the tape. When I listened to the first song, "Bunker Soldiers" I really thought that I was going to like this tape. "Bunker Soldiers" sounded like a song that Devo would produce. It had a very odd sound, and if you don't like synthesizers you'll hate this song; and the rest of the tape for that matter. After 1 listened to the whole tape, it turned out that "Bunker Soldiers" was the only song that I really liked. The song "Almost" which directly follows "Bunker Soldiers," slows down from the fast pace of the previous song way too much. It creates a big contrast which shouldn't happen so early in the tape. I hope the rest of the members return to the group. I was disap­ pointed with this tape, and I've hardly listened to it since I purchased it. I really appreciated OMD's previous style, but unfortunately, it has chang­ ed drastically. In fact, the only thing that I liked about this tape other than the song "Bunker Soldiers", is the unique cover. Next time you're in a record store, take a look, but if you're an OMD fan I don't recommend buying it. Got the blues?

However, the Mountaineers naye this convenience at both tailback and fullback. L,"^e 3re fortunate t0 have four quality backs," said ASU Coach Sparky jwoods. "It is actually hard to say who is first team and who is second team." At fullback the Apps have junior Kenny Dawson and senior Doug Beaty. Although Dawson has been hampered by injuries he could very well be the I fastest of the ASU rushing entourage with his 4.5 speed in the 40-yard dash. I Dawson, out of Chesapeake, Va., is a more-than-capable backup to starter I Beaty. Beaty, at 6-3 225, is the epitome of a fullback. He's the hitter of the AD Ipalachian backfield. Beaty is the kind of runner who will win nearly every confrontation with a defensive back who tries to come up and make the tackle. Just ask Wake Forest strong safety Joe Walker. Walker tried to bring down Beqty after a pass competition and was hit hard enough to make people wonder if he could get up. The only reason Beaty didn't get by him is because he couldn t get his feet over Walker after he knocked him down. a three-year letterman for the Mountaineers, is currently the thirdI eadmg rusher for ASU averaging five yards per carry.

Pollock said. "We've only won our own meet one time (1984) and Virginia Tech has won it five times." The women will also be facing some tough competition. Wake Forest, Georgia Tech, Liberty, Davidson, Duke, and UNC will bring their women's squads to the mountains. Weaver said his first three ladies will compete well with the other schools, but worries about the fourth and fifth runners contributing good performances. "Beth Ruggles, Vanessa Tysor, and Karen Osada are all running well against our competition," said Weaver. "If our other ladies run well, we will have a chance to win." "The meet will be tough," Weaver said. "Wake Forest should be the favorite, they will be tough to beat." This meet along with the rest of the regular season are tune-ups to the Southern Conference Championship meet at Davidson on October 31. "Every meet is preparation for the Southern Conference Champion­ ship," Weaver said. "We are training hard and getting ready for that meet." Both men and ladies squads should do well in the conference meet. The first place finish at Davidson two By MIKE SMITH Appalachian Sports Editor To know ASU's Anthony Downs, one would never guess this man could create holy terrors for people on Saturdays. Except, of course, for his imposing stature. This giant of a man stands 6-2, 268 pounds and is thought to be 0I?e. e top defensive linemen in Diyision I-AA college football. Wake Forest would have no qualms with the evaluation of his ability and may not limit it by division. His eight tackles, seven assists, two quarterback pressures, and a caused fumble in Saturday's 16-12 loss to the Deacons is more than enough to name him the The Appalachian Athlete of the Week. Aside from his impressive statistics, Downs virtually set up camp in the Wake backfield. One thing is certain, the Deacon backs were aware of number 60's presence at all times. I was satisfied with my perfor­ mance," Downs said. "But I was disappointed we lost. I'm disap­ pointed for my senior colleagues beause we never beat Wake Forest." There is another side to the man af­ fectionately referred to as "Heavy." For every bit of confusion he causes in opponents' backfields, he is as softspoken and kind off the field. "I've coached Anthony for four years," said defensive line Coach Brad Lawing. "He'sfrJieck of a foot­ ball player and an even better person. He was raised right. He has a good set of parents." Downs, uniquely enough a Public Relations major, is not one to throw around a lot of words, but would have his actions speak for him. "I'm the type that leads by exam­ ple, Downs said. "I don't grab peo­ ple and shake them up to motivate See DOWNS Page 10 Appalachian Photo by Keith * Anthony Downs (60) in his usual position; pressuring the QB.

Thomas dur­ ing a recent ceremony. Thomas retired from Appalachian in 1982 after 32 years as a teacher, coach and athletic trainer. "Doc," as he was called, was awarded ASU's first Distinguished Professorship and the 1962 yearbook was dedicated to him. Thomas earned bachelor's and master's degrees in physical and health education from Springfield College in Massachusetts, where he also played semi-professional baseball for four years. He came to Appalachian in 1950. His interest in human movement and dynamics in relation to fatigue and work output led him to serve for 16 years as the university's athletic trainer. He was also the golf coach for five years and ASU's representative to the National Collegiate Athletic Association. Thomas was a Class A member of the Professional Golf Association and worked as the teaching professional at Blowing Rock Country Club from 1964 to 1966. He was head golf professional at Cedar Rock Country Club in Lenoir from 1967 to 1972 rtA !??, grad^ate °f Cumberland (KY) College, Ferguson played two seasons at Central Wesleyan (SC) College and averaged 12 points and eight assists per game in helping lead Central to the NAIA tournament in Kansas City as a sophomore.

That kind of motivation only lasts five minutes. Big plays get the momentum going. "(Linebacker) Kenny (Blacknell) and I strive to make the big plays. We encourage our teammates to do their job on the field and the big plays will come." The senior out of Enoree, SC has been a preseason All-American each year following his phenomenal freshman season when he recorded 103 tackles, third best on the App defense. "After his freshman year, we knew we had something special," Lawing said. Since then, Mountaineers op­ ponents have continually run away from Downs' side of the field. Therefore, his statistics have suffered in the last three years. "I'm not real big on stats," Downs said with his customary modestness. "It's good to have. But if they run away from me or to my side, I have to get satisfaction out of doing my job. You can't be an individual in a team sport like this." NFL scouts have not let the drop in stats deter them from drooling over his size and mobility. Yet this atten­ tion does not influence Downs into losing perspective of his present task. "From what I hear, the scouts must like what they see," Downs said. "It makes me feel good that they are in­ terested. It does encourage me. But you can't really think about it now. I have to keep my mind on what I have to do here. I want to win a Southern Conference championship and a na­ tional championship." Downs is not the type of lineman who will always outquick or over­ power his opponent across the line. His greatest assets do not lie in his muscular arms or solid foundation below the waist. This man gets the job done by using his head; out-thinking his combatant. "Anthony really understands the game," Lawing said. "He had an ad­ vantage when he came here because he had such a great high school coach in Buddy Jennings. Anthony has been well-taught and well-coached. His football senses are fantastic." As a senior, one of Downs' respon­ sibilities to the team is to help the younger players, which is tailor-made for his willingness to give of himself. "He does everything we ask of him," Lawing said. "His work habits on and off the field are exemplary. He is very involved in helping the Classifieds SUPERIOR WORD PROCESS­ ING—Expert typing, proofing, editing, and transcription of hard copy or recorded material. Word processing equipment.

What is the difference between an actress and a star? Ask Valerie Harper, star of the television sit com Valerie. As a theater major, I've come to the discovery that the real work to get a show on stage or before the screen is mostly done off-camera and backstage. It is an easy task to learn lines and deliver them. It is not an easy task to produce, direct, design, collect props or any number of jobs that are vital to seeing that the show "must go on." Believe me, it is possi­ ble to make a last minute substitution if the star gets sick, or more likely walks off the set in a huff. This is precisely what Ms. Harper did to her pro­ ducers and co-workers on her show. One would think that with the title Valerie it would be obvious to even the below-average intelligence viewer that she was the star. Not so, according to Ms. Harper. The production company which paid her salary, Lorimar studios said she was worried that her co­ worker Jason Bateman was overshadowing her Tracking down medical records is not always as easy as searching he attic file or calling the family physician. There are often exenuating circumstances such as the family move, or the retirement of loctors that complicate locating medical records. Letters have been sent to students at their home addresses, but some of the 160 students claim to have never received information about the )roblem until one week ago—only a few days before the deadline. For student having difficulty locating his or her shot records, one week is not enough. Almost one-fifth of the students the university tried to notify were apparently unaware of the need to turn in their shot records. This large number of students indicates a drastic case of poor communica­ tion. The Infirmary should have been more flexible in adjusting to per­ sonal situations. An education is a service that students have paid for. The university is here to serve students and to help them reach the best education possible. Students are not at this university for the conven­ ience of the Infirmary, the Registrar's office or Student Affairs and bhould not be treated as if they are. It does not seem ethical to allow a person to pay hundreds of dollars or an education they are not eligible to receive and refuse to refund 'that money when the deadline approaches. If it is against the law for a person to take classes without proper immunization records then they should not have been allowed to register until the records were pro­ duced or updated. This regulation should be explained with registra­ tion information to eliminate any doubt that the requirement exists. The Infirmary was also very vague to some students with questions about whether they could get a refund if the records were not found or if they could get reinstated into classes after the withdrawal if they ivere found. It seems the whole problem stems from the lack of communication tetween the Infirmary and the students and an inflexible attitude oward students having difficulty finding their records. In the future he Infirmary should go to greater lengths before registration to inbrm students of the need to turn in updated shot records. The Infirmary was established to provide a health service to the :ampus. A better understanding of the needs of the students and more exibility towards the students having problems meeting the imunization requirements would save a lot of students unnecessary eadaches. Sometimes two aspirin aren't enough. WELL, IT WAS NO STROU- IN A SEP OF R05F5. \ UH..0N BEHALF OF THE BORN 86M MEMBERS OF MEAPOW SOCIETY, TP UKE YOU TV KNOW THAT RESPITE OUR EARLIER BEHAVIOR, TO US YOU'LL ALWAYS BE.., Appalachian Staff Writer Looking back over recent issues of The Appalachian, it seems that many of the articles that have appeared on this page, including some of my own, have expressed a disturbing amount of negative thought. Complain, bitch, whine. It's all we seem to do; whether it be sculpture, music, skateboarders, politics or the state of the world in general, we all have something we REALLY DON'T LIKE and want the entire public to know it, too. Now, complaint and criticism is a wonderful and useful thing when done properly. Social and political criticism has led to many im­ provements in our way of life, and on a smaller scale, constructive criticism from a friend can be extremely helpful when it's time for that term paper andnavriterajiiblock is in full force. To the Editor: We have a problem. Unlike many problems on this campus, this new concern involves everyone who lives in the Boone area. The problem is the present state of The Howard's Knob Park Area. How many people who have lived in Boone have not been to Howard's Knob and marveled at the seemingly endless view. The sad part of all this is that if these same people took a glance over the concrete ledge, they would see a less inspiring view of beer cans. The amount of drinking that it took to create this mess is not the problem. The potential destruction of a natural structure is the problem at hand. ..WANPERtNb... MEANPERtNb...

T/H HUH I ISN'T THIS NEW star WARS But all criticism can be taken too far. I think we all are treading on thin ice to continually complain with no positive ideas to balance out our thought. Therefore, I intend now to talk about GOOD things at ASU. Perhaps next week I'll go back to complaining, but at least I'll be able to do it with a clear conscience. Campus life here at ASU is really quite interesting if you take the time to notice. We have low cost movies at I.G. Greer. We have all kinds of shows at many different locations, from small, intimate one-act plays to major rock-n-roll shows like Fetchin' Bones. We have organizations for every type of interest from rugby to business to sciences to gay awareness. And we have a damn nice campus on which to enjoy it all. Water fountains, trees, grass, the Mall, the trails be^ti THIS SATELLITE PHoTo oF oUR TANKER BL°\NING UP Y°U CAN ACTUALLY REAP the Serial number ^nthe Mine1 See FUN Page 12 Who could argue with the fact that Howard's Knob is the best possible view of the entire Boone area? Why should such a prize be lost because of the ignorance of a few unfeeling people? I am of the opinion that this does not have to be the case. With a little work and much future concern, this problem can be reversed permanently. The solution to the problem is quite simple. Initially volunteer clean-up crews could give the area the policing that it needs. This will only take a few hours work with just a small number of students. The second and most important step would be to spread the word that Howard's Knob is not a beer can dump area. I find it rather amazing that an area that prohibits the drinking of alcoholic beverages could get so scarred by this activity. The main way that this happens is by students going to the park at night to have a look at the lights below and drink to "enhance" the experience. The next step for many would be to casually toss their cans over the ledge. This has to stop. All the efforts by clean-up crews could be easily negated by the actions of just a few individuals. For example, recently I led a small group of residents from my floor for a clean­ up effort in the park. We quickly realized the extent of the damage and without hesitating, our small group was able to clean a great majority of the area. Just a few weeks later, the once cleaned mountain was back to its past state."1 O This indicates that clean-up is not enough. A change of attitude is really the problem that needs to be . taken into consideration. 'j i i j | J t What 1 am suggesting is that ' ! 1 ! students should feel motivated to clean this area. What better way to V let the residents of Boone know that" -j we are concerned with problems outside of campus. 1 hope that students truly are concerned. Fred Dodson, Jr. ASU Box 07404 What do the senators do, anyway? To the Editor: In regards to Mr. Joseph Panzer's letter, which appeared in the September 22 issue of the Appalachian, I have several questions concerning the Student Senate. In his letter Mr. Panzer states that the Senate is "a fine representation of the student body." Does this mean that there are senators who represent the point of view of the minority students on campus, i.e. blacks, homosexuals, jews, etc.? Are the senators representing the ideas held by the majority in their respective residence halls? That is, if the people in the residence halls even care. The next question is, should we be proud of the Senate just because they had a five hour meeting or should we be proud of what they accomplished during those five hours? Any organization can have a five hour meeting. All you need is a person who constantly talks, a couple of people who are so bullheaded that they can't compromise on a subject and some people who don't have enough leadership to recognize that things have gotten out of hand and it is time to call it quits. Now 1 am sure that the Senate is not like this. At least I hope it's ' not. The last question deals with the statement "All members of senate should be highly honored for their ; dedication and perseverance towards the issues facing us at this university." Just what are the issues that we face at this university? Where do our senators stand on •* each of these issues?

She was worried that her career would go down the tubes if someone else got a few seconds more popularity than she did. Executive producer of Lorimar, Robert Boyett said that she came up to him during the shooting of an episode and began to sob, "I can't do this to my career. I can't stand in the kitchen and give advice to teen-age boys." She also is demanding another pay raise, according to Boyett, this time to $100,000 per episode. Oh, please, Valerie.

HF.AI.Y, Editor in Chief HEY, IT'S COOL ... THAT'S JESSICA HAHN/ OH OH OH. \ To the Editor: Kudos to Michael Cooke and The Appalachian for the article on "Our World." It is about time (I hope not too late) that "Our World" got some attention in this region's print media. Through my own outlet, I have been an outspoken supporter of the program since its inception a year ago. For those on this campus and around the country who continued to watch "The Cosby Show" every Thursday last season, I'm sorry, because they missed the finest hour on television. This nation's mass media have an obligation to inform and to educate as much as to entertain. If done correctly, informative and educational programs can be entertaining as well. "Our World" was a television think—a rarity on American television. One must not overlook the fact that the cancellation of "Our World" is symptomatic of the television industry as a whole. "Our World" did not turn profits fast enough. It did not win big in the Nielsens. Most news programs don't. While the purpose of any commercial enterprise is to make money, one would think that in television there would be a better way of making money than continuing to ptoduce moronic, mind-numbing situation comedies that are virtual carbon copies of the moronic, mind-numbing situation comedies of seasons past. Look at it this way: "Our World" was cheap to produce. The most expensive news show costs less to produce than the least expensive w % y • : A sitcom. News programs can be profitable, but it takes time for them to build an audience. In this context, one must not forget that the most profitable show on television is a news program—"60 Minutes." CBS stuck with "60 Minutes" for seven seasons before the profits started rolling in. None of the other television networks seem to have cared enough to take a chance with news programming. "Our World" was, at the very least, a concession of one hour of ABC's prime-time network television programming to NBC. Since ABC could not compete, it thought, with Bill Cosby, why not put on a news show? It was not a mistake.

After a few years of the job below his belt and a raise in popularity, Dan Rather obviously began somewhere along the line to overrate his importance. Apparently, so did the CBS pro­ ducers. Instead of chastizing Dan in any way, they decided to fire his manager, hoping to find another one who could "manage him better." If they continue to treat him as a "star personality" instead of an anchor person with an OK voice, like hun­ dreds of others out there, he is going to continue to behave like a child. In any other business, uncooperation and a belligerent self-important attitude would certainly be grounds Hman t^Mrs.. for firing or at least a good talking to. And there are plenty of other "stars" who do their job and enjoy a measure of popularity without going totally bonkers and becoming egomaniacal glory-mongers. Grow up, Hollywood.

CMU's contestant beat 76 opponents to win the championship. The entrant turned out to be a computer named "Hitech" programmed by a CMU computer scien­ tist. The chess association refused to recognize the computer as the winner. By NICHOLE PARSONS Appalachian Staff Writer ASU's Mountaineer Escort program is operating on regular schedule now after a brief delay. "The service had a delayed start this year because there was trouble getting escorts and people to volunteer," Director of Mountaineer Escort Charles Ledbetter said. NCSU Attracts Vagrants The Hillsborough Street Merchants Association and the University Neighborhood Planning Council have voted to ask the students at North Carolina State University to not be so kind. Students and faculty members have apparently been giving money to vagrants often enough to win the campus the reputation of being a charitable place. This reputation has been attracting more vagrants to the area. Some of the vagrants have used the money to get drunk and have been abusive to passersby. This has caused many customers to avoid the businesses across the street from the campus. "We had a half dozen people at the beginning of the semester and that was not enough to run it effectively so we kept putting out applications until we got enough applicants," Ledbetter said. \ Last Thursday was the escorts first operating night. The service received four calls. "It did really well for the first night. For some reason, Thursday and Sunday nights are usually slow nights," Ledbetter said. Volunteers for the escort service go through a thorough screening process. They fill out an application giving employment records and campus references. Their high school records are looked over by an investigation committee. After passing this phase, they are then interviewed by the committee and voted on. The vote must be unanimous.

Ledbetter met with escorts last Wednesday night. "I tried to instill in them the idea that they are representing ASU, SGA and Mountaineer Escort and they have a great amount of responsibility," Ledbetter said. Escorts also need to exercise control whether on or off duty. If any complaint occurs against an escort, I don't have any choice but to let them go," Ledbetter said.

College expenses rise (CPS)—-In the great debate about college costs, a majority of Americans agrees with US Education Secretary William Bennett that schools don't deliver good value for the dollar. About 60 percent of the respondents to a Media General poll released last month said private colleges especially cost much more than the value of the education they deliver. Students will spend an average of $10,493 to attend private campuses during the 1987-88 school year, versus an average of $4,104 for public colleges and universities, the College Board estimated in August. Such numbers represent the seventh straight year in which colleges have raised tuition faster than the inflation rate, a phenomenon that prompted Bennett to renew his attack on campus administrators. "The American people have made a tremen­ dous financial commitment to education," Bennett said. "It's time we started getting a much better return on that investment." In all, students, parents, state legislatures and the federal government will spend $124 billion on higher education this year, Bennett figured in his annual back-to-school report on August 26. "When the cost of tuition is going up twice as fast as the rate of inflation, that's too much," Bennett spokesman Loy Miller added. The accusation infuriates educators, who say they must raise tuition to help compensate for cuts in the money they get from states and the federal government, to pay for longdelayed building maintenance and to raise faculty salaries, which have been almost stag­ nant since 1972. An independent study released by Research Associates of Washington the first week of September, moreover, stated that, for the money, colleges are one of the best buys in the country. The study, which examined the economics of college financing, noted public campuses have kept their own costs of educating students to increases of just 4 percent, a performance similar to that of many industries. The report concluded public colleges remain as productive as other sectors of the economy. A Research Associates spokesman, who asked not to be named, attributed most of the increases to the need to pay faculty members more. "In times of inflation, salaries don't keep up," the spokesman said. "During periods of low inflation, such as now, schools like to pay back their faculties." Nevertheless, 51 percent of the respondents to the Media General poll of 1,348 adults thought even public college tuition was too high. But a bigger majority, 72 percent, thought a college education was more important today than it was in the past as an ingredient in personal suc­ cess. See ESCORT Page 2 ASU's tuition may increase next year By SUSAN SAYETTA Appalachian Staff Writer Appalachian State University's tui­ tion cost will slowly rise in conjunc­ tion with other colleges across the na­ tion in the fall of 1988. "You can count on some cost in­ crease, probably in the 4 to 5°7o range. Hopefully, we won't take any big jump," Director of Financial Aid Steve Gabriel said. "Also, some tentative fees will be added because of a 5°7o campus-wide salary increase, plus things not covered by the state," Associate ViceChancellor for Fiscal Operations Lynn Holaday said. This fall, an in-state student will pay $3,074.00 for the academic year. This total amount includes tuition costs of $432.50; general fees (such as athletics and health services ) of $249.00; fees related to debt of $171.50; room charges of $1060.00; board fees of $850.00 (standard op­ tion); and miscellaneous expenses (such as books $70.00. Out-of-state students must pay an additional $1750.00 for each semester. "On the average, we would rank the same with the public schools, holding as the 12th least expensive in the dollar amount of fees charged," Holaday said. The state pays $5376.00 per student per year. "An out-of-state student receives part of this money also," Holaday said. "The cost actually is $6300.00 with an out-of-state student paying $4400.00 of that," Holaday said. To pay for this education, over half the students enrolled at ASU have financial aid. "Last year, about 56 percent of ASU students had some form of financial aid in the form of loans, scholarships, grants, and work study. The two main forms of aid are the Pell Grant and the Guaranteed Stu dent Loan. The Pell Grant gave out $2 million while the Guaranteed Stu dent Loan gave out a $7 million dollar See COSTS Page 2 �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1987 Yaron Svoray slated to spe> Are students worth it?

"Joe Monk and Todd Evans are second year escorts who have really put in time and worked hard," Ledbetter said. "1 only wish we could pay the escorts, they work hard and deserve it. Some colleges have bigger escort services that are open Monday through Sunday from 7 p.m. until 7 a.m., but no one is going to do that unless they are paid," Ledbetter add­ ed. Escorts are very trustworthy and reliable due to the extensive screening process they go through. Escorts can meet you at the same time and place on a regular basis or when parking your car. Escorts are easy to recognize. They wear bright yellow jackets with ESCORT printed on the back. Simply call and say "I need an escort." You will be asked your name, where you are and your destination. Within 10 minutes they are there to walk you where you want to go. "We do have area boundaries and it is," Ledbetter said, "the escort's right to stop at the boundaries. But if a girl wants, he can walk her anywhere that she wishes." The hours are 7 to 12:15 p.m. Sunday through Thursday. "The phone number, which appeared incorrectly, in the student directory is 262-6253. Costs Continued from Page 1 total," Gabriel said. With $9 million given out in loans from government funds, families will not become broke financing a college education but may have to tighten their spending. "The students in financial aid pro­ grams have families who may have to cut ends short but they will not deprive the students of receiving an education. This should help with hav­ ing most of his expenses paid for. If it shows that the resources of the parents or students won't work, that's where the government comes in," said Gabriel.

Nov Nov! Oct,* Oct.? Oct,; oc..; Oct| Oct. 2s Weenie held y at 10,: ^rkshops; By ANDREA ANDERSON Appalachian Staff Writer ars, I Management House is home I read an article the other day in The Charlotte Observer by a fellow named Rick Weiss. He wrote about the self-destructive people in the world. According to experts, people take risks because of brain imbalances and other physiological garbage. Bull. Granted, he had all this scientific mess to back him up but the conscious mind can't be aware of what is going on. People, I believe, take risks because they want to enjoy life to the fullest, not get hurt or die. Take rock climbing, for instance. Rick had an example that a perfect Sunday afternoon to a climber is being hundreds of feet above a "dizzying blur of green and brown, experiencing shortness of breath and clinging to tiny handholds and footholds." That is a perfect example of a Sunday afternoon to a climber. Rick, though, thinks people do this because they are "self-destructive." If this is so, why do climbers use ropes? For looks? Saturday, Sean (a close friend of mine) and I went climbing. We set up our belay and I started up the face. Everything was going fine until just below Sean I ran into a tight spot. I hung on my arms looking for a route up until they just plumb gave out. Next thing I knew I was swinging in space. Talk about shortness of breath and pounding of heart. I made it up a few minutes late when my arms stopped resembling spaghetti. Good thing I was belayed because I didn't particularly want to smash into the ground. I had a feeling it would hurt. The point is I didn't climb to fall but to get up the face of the rock. Oh, yeah, one expert said we live in a society of contradictions because we watch shows like Miami Vice and then people tell us to "be cool" so to speak. HA! Give me a break. I can always feel my brain tugging the rest of me towards self-destructive vices after an episode of Miami Vice. Who wants to sit around for the rest of their life watching re-runs of What's Happening and leading a safe life anyway? Pop quiz—State where the Home Management House is, what it is, and who lives there. You don't know? Well, you're not alone. The Home Management House, located across from Sanford Hall beside Coffey Hall, is used in connection with the Home Manage­ ment Course in the Home Economics Department. All Housing and In­ teriors majors and Home Economics majors are required to live there for one semester and they receive four hours credit for the course. The house has four apartments, with a laundry room, basement, and utilities closet. There is one twobedroom apartment and three onebedroom apartments. Nine students live in the house. The house was originally on the site of the Administration Building,where it was condemned in 1963. Students cooked and cleaned in homes of area residents while a new house was being built, which opened in January of 1963. Lucy Brock donated some china and silver and Lillie Shull Dougherty donated an Egyptian wall hanging and a Chinese painting. Housing and Interiors majors are responsible for renovating part of the house during the semester. This semester's project is remodeling Residence Director Traci Overgaard's living room and kitchen. The Home Economics majors are responsible for managing the house, taking turns planning and cooking meals for a week, operating out of a budget provided by their mealcards. They are allocated $3.81 per person per day.

SHAVER Appalachian Staff Writer ASU's literary arts journal, The Cold Mountain Review, is now accepting student submissions for the 1988 edition. "We try to publish predominantly ASU students," Review editor and aSU junior Bill Koch said. The Review has always been a student publication. It was started in 1^73 by R.T. Smith, who was then a student. He is now Writer in Residence at Auburn University and still contributes regularly. The Review was a recipient of a first place Columbia Scholastic Press Award for a photograph printed in the 1985 issue. CMR publishes about 60 percent student generated material. "We try to get ASU students to contribute. We also get contributions from published poets," Koch said. Although the Review is primarily a poetry publication, it also features short fiction stories, graphic designs, sketches and photographs. Students are encouraged to submit any of the above at the English Department office. This year, to encourage submissions, CMR is sponsoring a poetry contest with cash prizes, and a $25 prize for the photograph selected for the cover. The editors of the Review base their selections upon personal examination of all entries. On difficult decisions they sometimes work with a graduate student consultant. The Cold Mountain Review, which is published by the Department of English in cooperation with the Office of Student Development, is tentatively scheduled to be released by mid to late April.

His prac­ tical girlfriend, played by Michelle Poole, tries to bring the idealistic young man back into reality. A fantasy world comes into focus through the character of the young boy, played by Jackie Cabe. Edwardo Alen portrays the soldier, who periodically appears to remind the young man of the true location of his peaceful summertree. Ed Pilkington, director of last season's The Mikado, performs his magic again this season. The play is a "personal statement of war, misunderstanding, selfishness, and desire. It is a story about war; a war within a family that parallels with the war in Vietnam," says Pilkington. Both lighting and set were designed by Dr. Frank Mohler, Designer for the University Theatre. Mohler wanted "to create a threatrical set for a presentational show. These are real people in realistic situations, but they are in an unreal setting, which will be represented by the framework." Mohler created a stage dominated by a huge realistic tree that seems both friendly and foreboding depending on the mood Mohler wants portrayed. Tickets for this production may be purchased at the University Theatre box office, Room 121 of Chapell Wilson Hall. Office hours are Mon­ day through Friday, 8 a.m. - noon, and 1 - 5 p.m. The play will run Wednesday, September 30 through Saturday, October 3, so get your tickets in advance. The cost is $4 for the general public and $3 for faculty and staff. Students and children get in for $2.

Appalachian Photo by *»ith Jor>«« �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDA Y, SEPTEMBER 29, 1987 .Fiction Spotlight "Freethinker" stands before Court of Elders awaiting verdict CH ESN I By ANGIE CHESMJI IT Appalachian Business Manager A pale, young girl stood before the Court of Elders, many of whom still bore their inbred traits of the Great Holocaust. She was trembling from head to toe in the bright, white room, as she waited for the verdict which would decide her entiie future; her very life. The Judge of Elders peered down at her from his lofty chrome pedestal. What do you have to say on your behalf, Tillaurn?" The room's glaring brightness swam be lore the young girl's eyes as she thought about the crime she had committed. She only wanted some understanding, some human compas­ sion. She inwardly cringed as she recalled that awful room—the room where she was supposed to give herself to a total stranger whose genes were of compatible quality to her own. Tillaurn had been carefully instructed on how to behave. Her whole life had been spent preparing for that moment. Yet she had shamed herself, her city, and everything her society stood for. Maybe she should not have cried out for justice, nor struck out against the young man who was only following orders. Maybe. But she did—and she was not sorry. Tillaurn's chin lifted a little as she realized she made the only decision she could have. After what seemed an eternity, she answered the Elder's question. "1 believe in free thought. I cannot live in a place where my every word and action is planned out for me. I will not retract my past actions." The girl's brilliant green eyes stared at the judge with a mixture of fear and acceptance. She knew that with her reply death was certain, but she could not go on living in this place where individual thoughts and feelings were against all the thousand-year-old laws. "Very well," stated the judge without a hint of emotion in his cold, calculated voice, "this court has deemed that since you have somehow come to be a Freethinker," he said the word with disgust, "it is no longer acceptable for you to live among us. You obviously do not realize how for­ tunate you are to be living inside the Dome City where we have managed to restore a semblance of the old world. You are, as of this moment, uomiwicu ' ..v...wu, banished sP°tlight . from this protective fortress into the outside world." The judge paused a moment for effect. "You know what awaits you out there, do you not?" As Tillaurn stubbornly made no reply, the judge informed her. "What awaits you is certain death. If starvation does not kill you, then the grotesque savages that roam the wasteland surely will. Go now and never return." I illaurn had expected as much and left with very few of her possessions and no hope in her heart. All she had to protect herself with against the harsh wasteland was her spirit of independence and a strange longing buried deep inside her heart. For many days Tillaurn struggled to keep herself alive. She ate what sparse edibles she could find and drank water from murky grey holes. Her only shelter during the bitter cold nights was a thin blanket. After only two weeks the proud, independent, young girl was a scraggly, pitifully dirty, little creature giy, piiiiuiiv airtv, wandering aimlessly about the dry, dusty land. Her bright red hair hung in lank, filthy strings, and her face was streaked by tears she constantly shed. Yet, she still possessed an unknown passion deep within her heart. One night Tillaurn was awakened from a fitful sleep by strange wailing noises punctuated with terrifying screams. She scrambled to the top of a ragged hill and looked into the shallow valley below. What she saw in the pale, foggy moonlight made her skin crawl in horror. For there, danc­ ing in the shadows of a luminous, orange fire were the wailing, gro­ tesque figures of the savages the Judge of Elders had spoken of. Tied to a large wooden post in the middle of their dance ring was a man. He was being badly beaten with a whip wielded by an old creature who was taking his cue from a drummer. The brave young man tried with all his might not to scream, but the blows to him were far too painful. Suddenly the man let out a paininflicted scream and then slumped against the bonds which held him. The cruel creatures stopped their wail­ ing and laid down their weapons weapons, . . They grunted to one another and slowly loped off towards their respective dwellings. Tillaurn found her heart going out to the young man. She was afraid he was dead and for some strange reason she felt more lost than ever before. As she stared, she detected a tiny move­ ment in his body. It was almost as if he was still struggling to free himself. Tillaurn knew what she must do. She stealthily made her way down to the encampment, casting fearful glances towards the nearest huts. She then picked up a short spear and awkwardly cut the thick rope that bound the man. As she moved to free him she saw how strikingly handsome he was, despite the beating. Coming to, he asked in a hoarse whisper, "Who are you?" "Shh! I am a friend. My name is Tillaurn. Here, lean on me. We must hurry if we are to escape undetected." The man nodded his head groggily and they started on their long difficult trek to safety. Several times through the seemingly endless night the young man made a gallant attempt to walk by himself, but he just could not do it.

Med techs may also supervise the work of other techni­ cians and medical office personnel in the lab. Conley graduated from ASU and the Charlotte Memorial Hospital School of Medical Technology in 1985 with a B.S. in medical technology. Students in the program must complete 90 semester hours of class work at ASU and 32 semester hours of clinical work at an affiliated medical technology school. I he lab at Charlotte Memorial Hospital employed her upon gradua­ tion. "Med tech schools have a lot invested in their students," says Chairperson of Biology at ASU Dr. Jeffrey Butts. Therefore, they tend to hang on to their students. Ever since the medical technol­ ogist at her family doctor's office diagnosed her as having mononu­ cleosis, Patty Conley has been fascinated with biology. • "It was remark­ able how the medical technol­ ogist could do tests to diagnose A mono right there ^ in the office," said Conley.

A large part of Conley's job involves administering allergy skin tests. She also assists in research on new allergy drugs, keeping track of side effects and tolerance. Conley's goal in her new position is to "move the lab into the present." Physician office testing," she says, "is up and coming." Keeping smaller medical practice labs technologically up to date can sometimes be difficult. Hospitals have money to put into high-tech equip­ ment, whereas smaller offices may be forced to use outdated and often inef­ ficient equipment. "I feel like I matter in a smaller environment," Conley said. The per­ sonal element in a small office gives her more freedom to make sugges­ tions and improvements in lab pro­ cedures. Conley feels the med tech field requires a certain type of person. You have to be conscientious of quality, detail oriented and precise," says Conley. "I: could mean so­ meone's life." Med techs in small labs juggle a variety of duties—everything from clerical work to scientific research. Pressure and stress are all part of the job. 1 raining and education determine successful careers in the med tech House field. "Med tech school is very com­ petitive," she says. "But it makes you try harder." Good grades are essen­ tial in order to pass the American Society of Clinical Pathologists' board certification. In order to keep the lab's equip­ ment more up to date, Conley feels that switching some of her biology electives with business or manage­ ment courses would have been a plus. "You have to figure out the dollars and cents and profits of new equipment," she says. "It has to be cost efficient as well as high tech." Med techs need to know how to pre­ sent that kind of information to physicians in language they can understand. It's hard for Conley to say where she wants to go next with her career because the med tech field is changing so much. Continuing education is still a possibility, but doesn't significantly increase salaries at the clinical level, which is where she wants to stay. Directors of med tech schools from Atlantic Christian College, Baptist Hospital, Charlotte Memorial Hospital, Forsyth Memorial Hospital, Moses H. Cone Memorial and Presbyterian Hospital will be on the ASU campus Thursday, October 1, to answer questions about their pro­ grams.

At Appalachian State, Coach Sparky Woods must feel like sending Bjorn Nittmo onto the field to attempt a field goal is a mere forrflality. Why bother? Just go ahead and put three points on the board. The most excitement in a Nittmo field goal attempt is how far through the uprights the ball travels. Nittmo, a native of Lomma, Sweden, came to ASU three years ago from Enterprise, Ala., where he was an exchange student. In Saturday's 16-12 loss to Wake Forest, Woods easily blamed the loss on the kicking game. Woods was obviously speaking of the punting team since it was a blocked punt that Wake returned for a touchdown propelling them to a 13-12 lead and breaking the Apps' back. But it was Nittmo who provided all the ASU highlights, Putting them in a position to win the game. For the first a time in ASU history, he to surgefour first-half, three-pointers kicked the Mountaineers ahead 12-6 at intermis­ sion. Nittmo converted kicks of 47, 31, 51 and 32 yards to tie his own record of four field goals in one game. The last one gave him 30 for his career, another school record. Yet this kid, who waltzes on the field with an air of cockiness that may typify many kickers, is only a junior. Oh, by the way, Nittmo has some range to complement his accuracy. His 51-yarder sailed through the goalposts and landed on the concrete porch of the Deacon field house, close to 60 yards from the spot of the kick. The showoff makes Nittmo eightof-nine on the season. In the preseason, Sports Illustrated touted Western Carolina's Kirk Appalachian Photo by ASU SID „ , , , , , • i Roach as the nafion s top kicker; Bjorn Nittmo Division I-A or I-AA. Humorously enough, Roach may not be the best kicker in the Blue Ridge Mount<d,ns, much less the Southern Conference. Nittmo's hot beginning gives him a definite headstart for all-conference honors. The Swede made second-team All-SC last year, hitting 19-27 field goals and 33-36 PATs. His 34-yarder with six seconds left at James Madison gave ASU a 21-20 win Unfortunately, Nittmo must live with the stigma that his 42-yard field-goal attempt against Nicholls State in the Division I-AA playoffs could have won the game. That missed kick has taken quite a while to exit the minds of many Moun­ taineer supporters. Nittmo is certainly not one to hide his emotions. His game-winner at JMU and his miss versus Nicholls State produced tears. But, of course, exhibiting emotions that register on opposite ends of the spectrum. He has had plenty of time on the off-season to think about that errant attempt. The way Nittmo is blazing paths through the Mountaineer record books, App fans can hopefully discard the playoff loss from their mind and harp on his potential as an Ail-American this year. Apparently, Woods is a big Nittmo fan when he says, "He is probably a bet­ ter kicker than we deserve to have." • _ Wake Forest special teams came through for the Deacons again as a blocked punt and three Wilson Hoyle field goals gave them a 16-12 win over Appalachian State Saturday night in Winston-Salem. Wake improved to 3-0, their best start since 1979, while the Apps, Divi­ sion I-AA's fourth-ranked team, fell to 2-2. The Deacons, trailing 12-6 nearing the end of the third quarter, held ASU to force a punt. AJ Green, com­ ing from the left side, blocked Tony Cox's effort and Warren Belin returned it 30 yards for the touchdown. Hoyle's point after put Wake ahead to stay, 13-12. The blocked punt, a long-time ASU specialty, came back to haunt them in this case. For the Deacons, it was their third blocked punt of the year in as many contests. "The special teams were outstand­ ing," Wake Forest Coac^Bill Dooley said. "AJ's (Greene) blocked punt and Belin's return really turned things around." Hoyle added a 22-yard field goal to complete the game's scoring as the Deacon defense stiffened to hold the Apps scoreless in the second half just as they did a year ago. The second half turned into a field position battle as neither team could sustain a drive. The Deacs, behind the punting of Martin Bailey (43.2 yards a punt), were able to continually keep ASU pinned in their own end of the field. Cox could manage just 28.7 . Appalachian Anthony Downs put the clamps on this Wake runner. Downs was a constant figure in the Deacon yards a punt for the Apps. "I'm embarrassed because I thought we lost the football game with our kicking game," ASU Coach Sparky Woods said. "We like to pride ourselves on being a good kicking team. But tonight, we lost it because of our kicking game." Wake Forest special teams hit the Mountaineers early when Greene returned a Cox punt 43 yards to the App 13 yard line. "I was very impressed with A J Greene," Woods said. "He made two great plays out there: the blocked punt and the long return. He's a great football player." Running back Mark Young fol­ lowed Greene's return with two car­ ries to the one before the Mountaineer defense held him for no gain. A Wake ilWal nrocedure Denaltv forced the Deacs to settle for another Hoyle 22-yarder to give WFU a 6-3 lead 10:49 before the half. Young carried for a personal-best 179 yards on 35 carries marking the second consecutive week he has pro­ duced a career outing while Filling in for the injured Darryl McGill. The Mountaineers finally began See GREENE Page 7 By BERRY EPLEY Appalachian Staff Writer More times than not, close football games are won on special teams. Such was the case Saturday in the Mountaineers heartbreaking 16-12 loss to the Demon Deacons of Wake Forest. Neither offense could put the ball in the end zone as all 28 points were scored via the kicking game. Early in the game, it looked as if ASU's kicking game would win this battle of special teams. A record-tying four field goals by Bjorn Nittmo sent the Apps to the halftime locker room up 12-6. Nittmo connected on kicks of 47, 31, 51, and 32 yards in giving the Moun­ taineers their precarious six-point advantage. "I didn't think 12 would be enough at halftime," ASU coach Sparky Woods said. "I just hate that it happened the way it did." The Mountaineers were able to hold on to this shaky lead until late in the third quarter when the Deacs came up with the special teams play of the night. ASU found itself faced with fourth-and-seven on its own 33. App punter Tony Cox dropped back to kick and the Deacons weren't trying to hide their rush with 10 men on the line of scrimmage. Wake Forest defensive back A.J. Greene broke through untouched and blocked Cox's punt. Warren Belin picked up the loose ball for the Deacs and scampered 30 vards down the left sideline for the touchdown.

The midfielders and offense both seemed intent upon controlling the tempo and keeping the pressure on the Keydets. At the opening of both halves, the Mountaineers were able to threaten. Midfielders such as Andy Salandy, John Cerak, Kirk Kropinack and Chris Malmfelt appeard aware in both the offensive and defensive aspects of their halfback positions. Many times, they stripped the ball from the VMI offense and took the ball to the corner flags for crosses which created some excellent opportunities for the Moun­ taineers. At 13:19, the pressure placed upon the Keydets by the Midfielders paid off. Midfielder, Kirk Kropinack plac­ ed an excellent pass that split VMI defenders Carlos Lee who beat a single, defender and then proceeded to bend the ball to the far post past a clueless VMI goalkeeper for Ap­ palachian's first goal. Because of ASU's pressure, the Keydets were limited to six penetra­ tions in the first half. Appalachian's defense cleared the ball out well and held the VMI offense to only five shots for the duration of the game. At 52:12, Andy Salandy chipped the ball from the right-hand corner of the penalty box. The ball landed easi­ ly in the side net and Salandy pushed the score to 2-0. Finally, striker Bryan Flynn's thirty-yard throw-in across the goal mouth which, after being bobbled by VMl's goalkeeper, was stuck by Chris Ftey for the third goal. . The ASU Lady Mountaineers' volleyball team traveled to Lenoir-Rhyne Saturday to take on the Lady Bears in what proved to be a grueling five-game match. With the score tied at two games each, the ASU team found themselves down 11-3 in the fifth and final game. But with the excellent serving of Kim Warren and three outstanding attacks by Angela Haas, ASU came back to win the fifth game 15-13 and clinch the match. Setter Kim Zubay also helped lead the offensive surge, completing 84 percent of her sets. "Lenoir-Rhyne is a very good team, especially defen­ sively," ASU Coach Traci Blankenship said. "They are probably the best defensive team we'll see this year. It seemed like everything we put over, whether it was a dink or a spike, they would return. But our girls played as a team, not as six individuals. They took their hearts and all of their skill with them into the match and put it together to win. We knew we deserved to win the match. The team, 1-2 in the conference and 2-2 overall, has The Coach's Corner debuts Wednesday at noon featuring ASU Coach Sparky Wood's review of his team's performance at Wake Forest.

The service was off set, though, by excellent defense. The team had a total of 91 digs, led by Holly Ryerse who had 16 and 11 blocks, compared to eight in last week's previous contest. "Defensively, the whole team played great, and Val Pat­ terson and Kris Zubay made some excellent saves," Blankenship said. "The team was determined to stick together and experience the game together, while in previous matches they had played like individuals." "We had a rough start, but we are on our way back up," Blankenship said. "We've got a lot of talent, and if we continue to play like we did on Saturday, we could come out on top of the conference. We've altered out practices some and the new method seems to be working." The team travels to Virginia Tech tonight to face a tough Hoakie team and then on Thursday they go on the road to Martin, Tennessee to play their first tournament this season.

The team the Apps are capable of being, showed up on Saturday as they downed the Colonels of Eastern Ken­ tucky 2 0. "We played real nice against Eastern Kentucky," ASU Coach Cathy Lowe said. "It was just a good overall team effort." ASU started slow against the Col­ onels but finally got goals from Graham Shannonhouse and Louann DeGroat to account for the scoring in the shutout. The other side of the Apps came to play on Sunday as they suffered a blowout loss to Longwood College. The small college out of Virginia ex­ ploded to a 4-0 halftime lead then cruised home with a 6-1 victory. l ongwood had already lost to Eastern Kentucky earlier in the weekend so this was a game Lowe felt the Apps could have won. "We just fell apart on Sunday," Lowe said. "We looked like a com­ pletely different team. We played slow and just weren't cutting the ball." Shelia McCarty got the Moun­ taineers lone goal to allow them to avoid the shutout. We played real nice against Eastern Kentucky." "It was just a good overall team effort."

"It looked like he came through the guard/tackle gap," Woods said. "They scared us with that early in the game but we thought we had it corrected at halftime. We just didn't execute." To lose a football game in this fashion is a turning of the tables for the The Mountaineers hope to put the Mountaineers as they have prided themselves in blocking kicks over the last two pressure on Furman at Conrad and a half seasons.

"We pride ourselves in being good in the kicking game and I hate to lose this way." ASU has already blocked one punt in 1987 with Keith Collins getting to a James Madison kick in the second game of the season. The Mountaineers have blocked 16 opponents' punts in the last 28 ballgames with Quincy Bethea having a team-high four stuffed kicks.

The Apps had VMI at Virginia beaten a lot of teams on special teams and this time the shoe was placed on the other foot. "We played hard and shut out a good team," ASU Coach Art Rex said. "The skill level of all the teams in the league is coming up and we must take everyone seriously." Rex could feel the team's eagerness to clash with Furman, last year's con­ ference champions.

Statements continually heard concern the childish nature of the owners for leaving the bargaining table. Yet, it is the players who are throwing rocks and eggs at the incom­ ing buses which cross the picket line carrying the so-called scabs who will attempt to keep the league in business during the NFLPA holdout. The NFLPA and owners are so far apart on such issues as free agen­ cy and pension that the strike could well go throughout the winter. NFLPA representative Gene Upshaw will not agree to a federal mediator because he may realize his requests are far too demanding. Upshaw complains that owners are selfish, but he seems to forget they would not have jobs if it were not for the owners who provide the team. Perhaps the only way the strike will be alleviated is if the players' union disintegrates and they decide to return without significant im­ provements. Already, there is some dissension among the union members. Players such as Mark Gastineau of the New York Jets, Joe Montana of the San Francisco 49ers and Randy White of the Dallas Cowboys refuse to go on strike. For once, the fans may play a consequential role in the future of the players. If the fans will support the scab games as they have the first two weeks of the real season, the NFLPA members will have to come back for fear of forever losing their jobs. There are plenty of quality athletes who are willing to play without the incredible stipulations set down by Upshaw. But most important­ ly, the fans, instead of being hurt, may have a direct impact on the ex­ istence of the NFLPA strike. Escort not working •After six weeks of classes, Mountaineer Escort is finally underway. ;The three-year-old program is a good one and is vital to the safety of wpmen walking on campus after dark. A program this old, however, should never have taken this long to get started. •The director of the service cited a lack of volunteers as the reason for the-delay, but little if any, information was provided to students about thp: need or procedures for interested volunteers. Charles Ledbetter should, like most other student program directors, have organized this fall's staff before the end of last spring semester. Furthermore, signs were posted on campus advertising the service which misled some students into believing the program was under­ way—until they tried to call or go by the office for an escort. If Student Government cannot do a better job organizing one of the most important programs to the safety of this campus, they should release the responsibility to another department on campus, perhaps Security, who is better able to get the funding necessary to run the service properly. If finding escorts is the only problem, much more publicity should be used. Service clubs and fraternities should be solicited for assistance and the admission should be petitioned for more funding to compen­ sate escorts. Mountaineer Escort is a service that should not be given a low priori­ ty by the administration, SGA or the student body. It is the only organized program for students to keep each other safe at night and should not be treated in such a flippant manner as to delay the commencing of the service six weeks into the semester.

A Newsweek magazine writer found out about 55 square feet of cleared land is needed to produce just one "all-beef patty." (How many burgers did you eat last week?)

Most of the grazed areas eventually (in a year or two) end up as scrub desert. So what's a desert or two among friends? After all, on each rain forest burger, we are saving an incredibly wild, whopping, way out sum of (gasp!) five cents. Well, by saving a few pen­ nies and gaining a lot of sandy gullies, we are per­ manently losing a source of many medicines that may be missed by some people. Does the image of a hamburger bring to mind the annihilation of entire species of plants and animals? Does the image bring to mind the possible cause of catastrophic changes in the earth's climate? Does it bring to mind the exploitation of underprivileged people? If it doesn't, then surprise! It should. Because that Children with leukemia, for instance.

If I were a younger man I would perhaps be quite perturbed and find my Sundays empty and alien. But that was then and this is later, and I do not care. I used to really love pro football. When I was growing up, it was something akin to professing Com­ munism or atheism if you didn't like pro ball. My buddies and I all used to root for the Baltimore Colts (mainly because most of us had relatives there and had been to see the Colts play) I used to think Lydell Mitchell was the greatest, and Bert Jones and Roger Carr were major heroes of mine. When 1 played ball in school I even tried to run like Lydell, but it musF have been our offensive line that prevented me from gaining yardage like he did—or maybe not! Then it began to happen. Huge salaries, followed by gigantic salaries, followed by super-colossal-megasalaries. The rules became more and more restrictive and even ridiculous as n the case of the no-celebrating-aftertouchdown rule. Drugs became rampant. Violence and injuries were widespread as geting a spot on a team became tougher and the talent levels went up. Owners began to care more about profit than players interests.

Campus is not just for students —| To the Editor: After reading Tammy Walker's column, "Hang ten somewhere else!", I was disappointed; no, that's not a good word. I was sad. No wonder student/resident relations are so bad. She uses a term such as townie" as opposed to the term pest to describe resident children who are trying to have fun. Think about it. When we wonderful college students were thirteen, didn't we love to be around an older brother or sister? Even better, an older neighbor? We thought we wei. cool. So do these kids. They just look up to us They see our campus as a Playground. What's wrong with that. Some of our students see our classrooms as playgrounds. These kids are just showing off. I doubt seriously they are trying to terrorize any of our students. I'm sure there are many people who have been tolerant of Miss Walker when she perhaps has played her music too loudly, laughed ?OQ loudly, or acted silly. She was having fun.

I was under e impression true musicians could »nvey moods and emotions through eir instruments without even ying a word.

But music, like other things, must evolve. And some of what it has evolved into is rather impressive. Your main complaint about today's music concerns metal. It seems obvious to me the majority of what you have been exposed to is radio metal (also known as pop-metal or "jibberish" as you put it.) Apparently you took a shallow glance at the genre and came up with a shallow result. 1 would suggest you consider the depth of Queensryche's "Rage for Order," the sincerity of Triumph, the distorted fantasies of Dio, the rebellious world-criticism of Metallica, the positive outlook of Stryper, or any other mentally legitimate bands before jumping to any stereotypical conclusions about lyrical depth in metal.

'That's a very medieval view," ftrjorie Lenn of the Council on Istsecondary Accreditation said. 1n making the proposals, which will lome official regulations unless laeone formally objects to them ithin 90 days, Education Secretary [ William Bennett said hejioped to im­ prove consumer protection by giving students a sense of how good colleges would be educating them before they enroll. "Traditionally, accrediting agen­ cies have looked at inputs when grading a program: how many books are in the library and how many facul­ ty members have Ph.D.s," Bennett said. "The focus should also be on out­ comes or student achievement: what students actually learn." To judge what they learn, Bennett said he wants the accrediting agencies to force colleges to reveal data about academic programs, costs, refund policies and graduation requirements, and to make sure their claims concerning graduation rates and job placement rates are verifiable. Assistant Education Secretary C. Ronald Kimberling cited Northeast Missouri State University's competen­ cy testing program as a model for deciding what and whether students are learning. "Accountability is certainly a reasonable expectation," James T. Rogers of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools added. "The accrediting community hasn't been counting books for a long time," Lenn said. "The community also has been evaluating student progress as part of its accrediting decisions for a long time," she added.

Revisions in the College of Business Probation is pressing By TRENT HUFFMAN Assistant News Editor The Walker College of Business has implemented several processes to eliminate its probation by the American Association of Collegiate Schools of Business. The College of Business was placed on probation last spring by the AACSB for not having enough doctoral coverage in several of its programs nor enough faculty involved in research. "We're very comfortable with what we're doing and what the faculty are doing to handle the situation," College of Business Dean Paul Combs said. "We're con­ cerned about maintaining the quality of our programs." "One thing they criticized us on was not having doctoral coverage in the hotel and resort management program," Combs said. Since being placed on probation the college has hired a new professor in the resort management program. Another problem AACSB cited was not a sufficient cross-section of the faculty showed research activity in the past five years. "We think we're doing the right things. We've put more money into research," Combs added. Several faculty members who were working on research at the time the college was placed on probation have had materials published. The college has also made more funds available for its faculty members to travel to conferences to present their research. Combs said several faculty members have left the university or retired and this has actually reduced the number of faculty members who have not done research. Combs said since the College of Business was first accredited by the AACSB, the college's quality of students and faculty have increased. "We're in much better shape now than when we first got our accreditation," Combs added. Just over one-third of all collegiate business schools in See BUSINESS Page 3 Buchanan, Sanford, Barro: Federal budget deficit forum Nobel Prize winner, U.S. |iator and leading economic jj orist will discuss the federal budget | Sept. 28 at the Broyhill Forum icit Economic Issues sponsored by |U. ames M.

Barro of the University Rochester will speak on |:onomic Perspectives on the Budget Deficit" at 1:30 p.m. Buchanan won the 1986 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Science for his work on the public choice theory. Buchanan said individuals in government act on their own self in­ terest, rather than in the public in­ terest or for the common good. He also said people in the public and private sectors use institutions to their own advantage and he advocates rigid constraints on the behavior of politi­ cians. His influence has led to a new school of economic thought called flgh school grads apply in profuse numbers "the public choice school" or "the Virginia school." Sanford, elected to the Senate last year, is a member of the Senate Budget Committee. He chairs a sub­ committee on international economic policy and trade and belongs to a sub­ committee on international finance and monetary policy. He served as governor of North Carolina from 1961 to 1965 and was ranked as one of the 10 best governors of the century by a Harvard study. Sanford was president of Duke University from By SUSAN SAYETTA Appalachian Slaff Writer [ It Barro leads the "New Classical" school of economic thought, whose adherents believe the economy will find the best balance of supply and demand and government should in­ tervene only minimally in the marketplace. Newsweek said his text­ book Macroeconomics compared with the publications of Paul Samuelson and John Maynard Keynes in terms of impact on economic thought. The Wall Street Journal called Macroeconomics one of the best books of 1985. In his book, Barro said balancing the federal budget may not be desirable and he challenges the assumption that the deficits raise interest rates. Other speakers at the forum are Dwight R.

Watts said the cut-back in applicant intake with an increase in applications has given ASU a better selection of students. This year's average SAT score of 934 for the freshman class was a 30 point increase over the 1986 average of 904. "It has been harder to get in this year than ever before," Watts said. "Right now we are looking at the 1988 freshmen. So far we have had 25 percent more SAT reports sent in than last year." Though there are fewer high school graduates, a high percentage of graduates are going to college. From 1977 to 1985, ASU received about 5,000-5,400 applications each year un­ til 1986. From two years ago, ASU has in­ creased by 40 percent and been rank­ ed as one of the top ten up-andcoming public colleges by U.S. News and World Report. "A lot more people want to come here than two years ago," Watts said. "I don't think it is any better than it was three or four years ago. Just more people are realizing what a good school it is."

The school's athletic department reversed an earlier decision and ban­ ned alcohol from the new stadium sky boxes it leases to corporations and alumni. Earlier this summer, as the luxury stadium boxes were under construc­ tion, Tennessee officials said patrons would be allowed to store and drink alcohol in the 42 sky boxes because they are considered leased property. Except for a faculty club, they would be the only places on campus where people are allowed to drink li­ quor, since the Board of Trustees bar­ red alcohol from the campus when the state raised its minimum legal drink­ ing age to 21. "There was quite an uproar," Ten­ nessee Student Government Associa­ tion President Rusty Gray said. "A lot of people felt very unhappy about it. This is a dry campus. Alcohol is not allowed on campus. All of a sudden there's a designated area for alcohol and students felt like that was unfair." "This showed that they listened to what we had to say," Gray added. "It was a good decision." "The university felt like it was in its best interests to have a consistent policy on alcohol on campus," Ten­ nessee Associate Athletic Director Mitch Barnhart said. "While the boxes were being leased alcohol came up," Tennessee Ex­ ecutive Vice President Joe Johnson said. "Since the sky boxes provide a controlled environment, and are separate from the rest of the stadium, we felt that whatever a person does, as long as it's legal and ethical, should be a decision made by the person who leases the box." When students objected and pressured the trustees to review the issue, Tennessee's athletic department decided to ban liquor from the boxes. "The questions raised by students were legitimate," Johnson said. "Since the issues were being raised, we decided we'd go back to where we were." "Despite the ban on alcohol, all 42 of the sky boxes, which rent for $24,000 a year, have been leased," Barnhart said. "We haven't had any cancellations." Allowing drinking in stadium sky boxes has become an issue on other campuses as well. Last week, the University of Arizona's regents debated, but failed to decide, whether to let fans drink alcohol in the sky boxes to be built at Arizona Stadium, where liquor is otherwise banned. Last fall The Traveller, the Univer­ sity of Arkansas' student newspaper, published photos of local liquor store employees carrying boxes of alchohol up to stadium sky boxes, where some fans apparently violated a stadium drinking prohibition. Continued from Page 1 be removed from probation. Combs said it was difficult to tell if the college would be taken off proba­ tion next year. "It's really hard to say," he said. "It's not something we want to predict one way or another. We have successfully addressed the problems." The college has three years in which to be taken off probation before los­ ing its accreditation with the associa­ tion. Continued from Page 1 Klockentager said students who in past years would apply to the state's larger schools, such as the University of Iowa, are now more closely examining their own needs and goals and choosing schools more carefully. "Students also are shopping around to see which schools offer the best finan­ cial aid programs," Dr. Kenneth C. Green of UCLA said. "Students' increasing sophistication and the dwindling number of 18-yearolds has forced colleges and universities to adopt more aggressive marketing techniques," Green said. "Schools have successfully maintained enrollment levels by appealing to older students and emphasizing graduate programs." Green added that the number of 18-year-olds will decline by 60 percent bet­ ween 1988 and 1995, forcing campuses to recruit more creatively. "The worst is yet to come," Green said. In 1984, University of Florida students protested a decision to allow sky box renters to drink liquor despite a campuswide prohibition. "Now, however, it's a moot point here," Student Government leader Jeff Jonasen. The reason, Florida Athletic Direc­ tor Bill Arnsbarger said, is that the sky boxes are owned and rented by the individual, a status that apparent­ ly exempts the fans from the local drinking regulations. "Exempting people who can't af­ ford sky boxes, would be impractical because a guy going up and down sell­ ing beer would have to ask everybody for an ID." Arnsbarger added, "It's obvious that would present a pro­ blem." "It doesn't bother me," Jonasen said. "I don't think there should be alcohol in the stadium. The sky boxes are a controlled environment. It would be unsafe to have people drink­ ing in the seats because they'd get rowdy and destructive." Preventable Deaths Lung cancer is largely a pre­ ventable disease. It is estimated that 83% of the deaths from lung cancer could have been avoided if individuals never took up smoking, according to the American Cancer Society. Business Admissions UT: No Drinking the country have been accredited by the AACSB. "Accreditation is important but it's really incidental," Combs said. "However, having had it and then give it up could cause some damage." The College of Business will submit a report to the accrediting committee of the AACSB next March, the earliest opportunity for the college to WE BUILT A PROUD The wisest investment you'll ever make for your family begins with only. . .

For some, their fantasies seem unattainable, and they'll spend the re­ mainder of their lives wishing instead of doing. A feeling of responsibility can get in the way and will sometimes cause a person to feel their dreams are unrealistic until one is looking back on their life, realizing their dreams could have become their realities. For K.C. Canter, Tommy Gabriel and Mark Lippard, the words "unat­ tainable" and "unrealistic" are not in Alright, this is the last time, my name is Greg R-I-C-H-E-Y no matter what ypu see above. Okay?.. .great. I was getting bored around here, so I've decided to create a little controver sy. Boys and girls, today's topic is speed. No, no.. .not the drugs, y'know—in cars. I love speeding, I need speeding, and I am condoning speeding, so if you don't like speeding slow down and don't read this article. Everyone is speeding. It has become one of those pseudo-alternative but still considered "in" things to do. It is kind of like eating Pringles, skateboarding, dipping tobacco and renting Strange Brew. 1 have noticed a lot of people speeding on the ASU campus, mainly in the parking lots doing about the national highway speed limit. I've also noticed all of those speeders can be classified into one group or another. First of all, we have the "street racer" types. These are the guys who drive those highly modified Chevelle 454 airplanes and leave inch-thick accumula­ tions of rubber on the pavement whenever they leave a stoplight. Red Man is a main staple for these dudes. The yuppie students have their own style, but I haven't figured it out yet. These people always have an expensive radar detector on the dash of their late model European car, but they never, ever, speed, they just make it look like they do. I can respect that I guess. Finally we have the wealthy students who got a Porsche from dad on their twentieth birthday. They drive like they are on some German Autobahn, and I for one would give my right arm to be doing that right now. Students like me fall somewhere in between. The first car I ever owned was a VW Rabbit (no snickering). It was a deceptively quick little car which I regularly drove over 80 mph. So, students who are addicted to speeding pay close attention because there are much more amusing things to do than fly through parking lots. Racing is one alternative that I'm sure everyone knows about so I will forego describing that. Another popular game is follow the leader. To play this game one needs traffic, reflexes, a brake and a healthy dose of insanity (I'm actually pretty sgne). The object is simply to knife through traffic, without hitting anyone, of course, to a pre-planned destination. The first person to reach the destination wins. My favorite game however, is known as "cop tag." This is an unintentional, but purely exciting game. If you haven't guessed it by now, yes it does involve beating a police officer who is trying to stop you for speeding. I've played t\yice, once in Myrtle Beach and once in Raleigh, and I won both times. Most people are not that lucky, so extreme caution must be attached to this par­ ticular game. I suppose I live a bit dangerously, but it seems to me that speeding will usually pay off, as long as you don't hurt yourself doing it. By the way, the next time I go home I'll be driving back in a 280 ZX; if my parents don't see DEFYING this column first. soul. their vocabulary. The persons mentioned combine to form "Manic Expressions," a highly successful juggling group based in Boone. Originally, Canter and Gabriel met at ASU where she was studying physical education and he was studying Philosophy. He had been juggling for three years and she wanted to learn so he worked with her (sometimes five hours a day) until she was ready for competition. When consulting the International Jugglers Association (IJA) magazine, the two came across Mark Lippard, a member of the Association, who lived in Lincolnton, N.C. The two traveled to Lincolnton where they worked together and realized there was a mutual excitement for juggling bet­ ween them. After spending two years com­ peting in the IJA competition and bringing home disappointing 8th and 9th rankings, Gabriel felt the new "Manic Expressions" would have a better chance. So, the group spent two months working exclusively on their routine. "We lived juggling for two months straight," Gabriel said. The hard work paid off when the group won first place. "I feel it was our original material and ideas that won it for us. We got a standing ova­ tion," Gabriel said. Their originality involved excessive movement between the three of them; having someone in the middle grabb­ ing the clubs at random and tossing them back into the pattern. Gabriel said, "We took it to an extreme by juggling 11 clubs between the three of us.

A.P.P.S., "Yes1 By TRAVIS TART Appalachian Slaff Writer The Other Big Apple Road Race, sponsored by the Student Affairs Of­ fice, will take place October 10. Associate Vice Chancellor of Stu­ dent Affairs Barbara Daye create i the project five years ago. Assistant Director of Student Programs Jean Hord helps coordinate the details of the race. In the past, the race has attracted large numbers of participants, but on­ ly a few have been students. Student Affairs, with the help of Appalachian Popular Programming Society, is try­ ing to change that. "Last year there were 450 entries, but there were not as many student entries as we would have liked. So Daye asked A.P.P.S. if they could get involved in a way to encourage stu­ dent participation," Hord said. Hord feels the sense of competition might make some students reluctant to take part in the race. "I believe the one thing that might hinder students from entering the race, if they are competitive by nature, is the feeling that they will not be able to win. Therefore, we needed to target something to allow students to win without being the fastest in the race," Hord said. Hord added she had discussed the problem with Daye and those meetings had led to the idea of having an event within an event. "We decided that it would be fun to sponsor some contests that would encourage student participation, because once they enter the race they would have fun, it would be good for them and benefit them in the long run," Hord said. For the past few years, members of the English department have dressed in costumes, and have ran as a group. This gave A.P.P.S. an inspiration. "A.P.P.S. Special Events Council worked up some ideas and came up with having a costume contest. The council is working in conjunction with Ski Hawksnest," Hord said. "When we approached Ski Hawksnest about helping with the contest, they donated two season passes for the 1987-88 ski season and then told us that we could line up the contest any way we wanted to." Hord went on to say that only ASU students are eligible to win prizes from the costume contest. The other prizes offered are two tickets to the Rich Hall Concert, donated by the A.P.P.S. concert council. The prizes will be awarded on an in­ dividual basis. Two "best" costumes and two "second place" costumes will be chosen from the field. Each first place costume winner will receive a ski pass and each second place winner will receive a ticket to see Rich Hall. The costumes will be judged on creativity, originality and quality. The runners must complete the five mile course in full costume to win the contest. There will be judges posted along the route, and the contest will be judged by A.P.P.S. students and the ASU community. Runners are encouraged to be physically fit and to make sure that their costume is safe to ROAD RACE: Runners gelling ready to test their endurance See BIG APPLE Page 5 Elegant v i o l e n c e 9 9 h e r e°^ers selective menu live entertainment ^ma^eus to stay on ASU campus ( (1 By GEORGE L. HILBISH Appalachian Slaff Writer By SKIP JOHNSON Special lo The Appalachian Hello, sports fans! Tired of hearing about the same old football? Well, listen to this! This past Saturday, a crowd of about 40 spectators gathered at State Farm field to watch ASU Rugby Football. The "A" team seized their first win of the fall season by obliterating a powerful Duke Univer sity team with a score of eight to nothing. Both sides suffered because of the constant drizzle, but ASU managed to overcome a scoreless first half with two tries in the second half to clinch the victory. Each extra point attempted was missedThe "B" side game was won by Duke with a score of 18 to 12. For those unfamiliar with the game, rugby is the 156-year-old ancestor of American football. It is best described by comparing it as a cross between football and soccer. In rugby, there is no forward pass, no blocking, and no protective gear allowed. The ball is advanced either by kicking or running. ASU has had a team since 1973 and has continually fielded highly com­ petitive teams that traditionally do well. Based on Saturday's results, it seems this winning tradition will con­ tinue. The team travels to East Carolina University Saturday for two games against a strong Pirate team followed by another home match with N.C. State. The ASU rugby season is played year-round with games both in the fall and spring. There are seven more games and two tournaments left in the fall schedule before a break. Don't miss a chance to take a look at this unique and exciting game. It's been three years or so since all the fun, neat places closed down. P.B. Scotts, Mother Fletchers and the famous Clydes all offered their own special atmosphere, but they were also similar in that they gave us good food, decent prices, a wide variety of live entertainment and maybe, believe it or not, a reason to not go home weekends. Those going home sure missed out on some great times. Basically, until alcohol came to Boone there was nothing going on. When it did arrive, there were high hopes that all those lost hangouts would come back to us. We'd finally be a college town, small that Boone is. Well, it's obvious those old favorites are gone and they'll soon be forgotten entirely. Fortunately, someone has picked up the baton and gone out on a limb to build a place sure to encompass all the needs of a college student. Amadeus. TIPS on Nightclubs Amadeus has been on •Ko Hrowipg board for at least a n all of that time to become reality. Those of you familiar with Apollo's will see some familiar faces in Amadeus. It s the same management. Many of the employees from Apollo's have followed Amadeus and are working there. The main thing Amadeus wanted to achieve was to offer everything that Apollo s did and more. One way of doing this is by increasing and im­ proving the quality of their menu selection. Amadeus has achieved that goal by upgrading all of their sand­ wiches and burgers as well as adding a wide selection of entrees for those wanting a little more. Their prices are very reasonable rangingfr°m $4 50 to 111.00. Amadeus also included an ex­ tensive wine list-and that does not mean Mad Dog 20/20.

"I can go no further," a weary Luther said. "We are close," Albain said. "See? The globe glows even brighter still." "You and your damned globe!" Luther muttered. "What?" Albain said. "I said I have torn my robe," he replied hastily. The pig snorted. Suddenly, the small medallion jerked in Albain's hand. It began to make a ringing sound, louder and louder, until they had to put their hands over their ears (all except the pig who had no hands, so it raced around in circles, squeal­ ing). There was a tremendous clap of thunder and the sound ceased. "What in the Host's name was that?" Luther yelled. "It means they are here," Albain said. "I mean, they were here a moment ago. Right up there." He pointed to an outcropping of rock next to a cave in the hillside. When they reached the cave entrance, the pig began to squeal again. "I smell a dragon!" it thought. "A befarbin' dragon!" "Hush, little pig," Albain said, and he scooped up the animal into his arms to quiet it. "What is the matter with that mound of walking bacon now?" Luther snorted. "He smelled a dragon here not long ago," Albain replied. "Thou canst bet they precious bottom, I did," the pig thought. "Well," Luther said, "what now?" "I have not the faintest idea," Albain said. "I have never had a pupil mess up an experiment so royally before." "Sorry," Luther said meekly. The pig giggled. "Shut up, breakfast food," Luther said. "Hush," Albain said, "I have to think quickly. There is no knowing where the dragon and the amulet have gone." Portia A. Healy, beloved editor-in-chief of The Appalachian, was sitting in her office. She was on the phone as usual, discussing matters of vital importance. "Yes, but no mushrooms, please... Yes, pepperoni on the other half. Thanks. Bye." She put down the phone, and resumed her duties as editor-in-chief. Suddenly, there was a loud boom, and a rather small dragon and a young woman dressed in blue silk appeared before her desk. "What can I do for..." Portia looked up into the gaping jaws of the rather small dragon, though in her terribly small office the dragon did not seem rather small. In fact, it seemed rather large and it was licking its lips. Several thoughts crossed Portia's mind, but none of them reached her vocal cords. "Oh goodie," the dragon said. "Can I have this one?" The princess thought for a moment. If she did not let the dragon eat sometime, the dragon might take it upon itself to eventually eat her. "I suppose so," she said. Portia's vocal cords suddenly returned from inactivity. "Now wait just a minute here," she said in a hoarse voice. "Who let you in here? Get out of my office." The dragon looked at her for a moment, deciding where to try the first bite. "Okay, Matt," Portia said, "joke's over. Get out of the dragon sub." The dragon stopped and stared at the funny, little woman; "What did she say?" he asked the princess. "I know not," the princess replied. Portia reached up and tried to pull the dragon's head off \ what she thought was her news editor in full dragon regalia. Needless to say, it did not budge. "Ow," the dragon said. "What art thou doing?" He snorted a small snort of flame into the air. "You're.. .you're real, aren't you?" Portia gasped in disbelief. "I sure as all nine hells am," the dragon replied, and he licked her face. "Yuck!" Portia exclaimed. "No kidding," said the dragon. "You taste funny." Meanwhile, back in the cave, Albain was rummaging through his book, Webster's condensed book of Emergen­ cy Spells. "Ah, here it is," he said. "First take the medallion, wave it in a complete circle three times over thy head and exclaim, 'Menachim Yasar Frabrot Bagel.' "What an odd spell," Luther said. "What a dumb..." the pig began to think, but Albain stopped him. "Be nice," Albain said. "Oh, sure," the pig thought, "to that overgrown hunk of an ape?" "What is that fat knob of inedible garbage saying now?" Luther asked. "Never mind," Albain said. "We have little time. Cast the spell, Luther, since it was thy mistake to begin with."' Luther did as he was told, reciting the unfamiliar words, and suddenly,, without a sound, they disappeared. "What are we to do now?" asked the dragon petulantly. "1 am hungry. Befarbin' hungry, and that wisp of a female has not the flesh of a pig." Without warning a pig appeared, followed by a wizened, old man and a young boy. Portia screemed. "Matt, Jimmy, help! Help!" "What is the matter with her?" the pig thought. "Oh, look," the dragon said. "A pig. How timely!" He began to lick his lips luxuriously again. Portia fainted.

" I am the wizard whose pupil created the amulet that got thee and thy dragon into this situation, m'lady. If we all hold hands, I can return us all to our proper state immediately." "Let me hold the pig," the dragon said. "Not on your life," the pig thought, who jumped into Luther's arms on the other side of the office. (This was not an impossible leap; it was a small office). They all grasped hands, Albain muttered the words of the previous incantation and they disappeared, leaving Portia at peace on the floor. Matt, auspicious news editor, and Trent, his faithful companion, opened the door to Portia's office to find her sprawled out on the tloor. "Are you all right?" Trent asked, elevating her head and fanning her face.

THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 24. 19S7 Spotlight on impressive performers I Talent abounds at variet show 1. By BOBBY JUSTICE ' Appalachian Slaff Writer Potential stars Irom ASU were under the spotlight Saturday night as A.P.P.S. presented its first annual Variety Show in Farthing Auditorium. | The title "Variety Show" was well earned as the show offered a wide array of )ii( music and dance which appealed to everyone regardless of personal preference. Ps Included in the two hour performance were all types of music—gospel, folk, .bluegrass, country and soul; combined wonderfully with dance and even 3 comedy. There's no doubt this show deserved a command performance. Emcee Rich Hubbard, who did a good job of combining casual conversation with light comedy, was faced with the task of introducing the various performers as the audience eagerly awaited what was in store. They were not disappointed when the BSA Gospel Choir was introduced first. Under the direction of Willie Fleming, this group delivered a stirring performance as beautiful in sound as it was in message. The choir, some 60 members strong, ^ combined vocal harmonies and solo performances in one dynamic ensemble. They were followed in the program by soloist Phillip Smith who delivered a Mi soothing rendition of "You and I." Smith, a fellow BSA member showed good 00 vocal ability throughout his segment. nPK As the crowd anticipated the next act, the variety part of this Variety Show to! became evident. From the soulful sounds of Smith, the transition was made ^ into smooth folk music with soloist Courteny Zapher. Zapher, a former ASU "ft student, played guitar and sang in an easy country style which added diversity W to the show. ^ But true diversity was added when Ralph Hollifield was given the spotlight, ! as he presented a break dance usuallv reserved for New York City sidewalks. With backflips, neadspins and other silky moves, the energetic Hollifield had ^ the crowd (especially the female patrons) in awe. After a 10 minute intermis^ sion, more variety was in store from the rest of the performers. Anne Black was next to take center stage, as she performed an original song which she wrote. As if the songwriting skills weren't enough, she proceeded to deliver the song in eloquent style with obvious feeling as her band provided backup. Adding more country flavor to the show were Chris Connor and Neil Barnwell, who delighted the locals with "Dueling Banjos" among other selec­ tions. The two added twinges of comedy to their segment, enhancing their musical ability with other obvious talents. Next on the Program was Kelly Cochran, a twelve year student of piano. Dressed as a cleaning lady, Cochran supposedly stumbled upon a grand piano j while cleaning. After banging out "Chopsticks," she proceeded to play with a talent and vigor even Gershwin would appreciate. By LARA WRAY Appalachian Staff Writer Appalachian Photo by Miko Holms SINGING TALENT: This young lady gave her all last Saturday. Her delightful segment led to the eighth and tinal segment of the night, a vocal performance by Kimondra Thompson, who was last year's Mountaineer Talent Search winner, was simply astounding as she performed "Out Here On My Own" with all the power and style imaginable. This Variety Show was surprising in different ways. It was first of all enter­ taining, which can be a surprise in itself sometimes. But the quality of the per­ formances was incredible throughout the night, and that too is sometimes unex­ pected. The talent of these individuals is unquestionable and their futures are as bright as they can make them. If Saturday night is any indication of the talent in this area, someone had better get on the phone and call Ed McMahon. Or better yet, anybody know a good agent...? Looking for an evening of entertainment? By SUSAN SHOEMAKER ^ Appalachian Slaff Wrilcr jf So, what are you doing tonight? InI terested in viewing a murder? No? (That's O.K. I guess I wouldn't be after a B.I. sandwich either). How about watching a 40-year-old man try to evade the draft? What about a |Visitation from the Lord? Those are always eventful, and you must admit that they don't happen often. All these things will be taking place this Thursday on stage in the I.G. Greer Arena Theatre. The Advanced Directing students will be producing a night of three one-act plays Next by Terrence McNally, Why the Lord Came to Sand Mountain by Romulus Linney, and The Real Inspector Hound. ] Students are in charge of casting, lighting, sets, costuming and direct­ ing. The universjty provides advising for those frustrating moments, but in­ terpretation of the play is left to the Students. Next, written by Terrence McNally and directed by senior Karen Duckett, is a situation comedy about a 40-yearold man who suddenly discovers that he's been drafted to fight in Vietnam. He's far from thrilled and tries to tell the army that they obviously don't want an old, overweight man like him. The government fails to see the irony of it all since everyone knows they never make mistakes. The play follows his ridiculous attempts to avoid serving, such as failing his men­ tal and physical exams. The reluctant draftee, Marion Cheever, is played by Randall Whitfield, while the domineering examining officer, Sargeant Fetch, is played by Erin Kirby. Why the Lord Came to Sand Mountain, written by Romulus Lin­ ney and directed by Suzanne Farrar, is an Appalachian folk tale in the nar­ rative tradition. It deals with an un­ married rustic couple with fourteen children. This family gets an unex­ pected visit from the Lord and St. Peter. Before anyone knows it, the family begins to tell Appalachian mountain "headbenders" and Jesus A.P.P.S. keeps H'Appy's happening comes back with a tew old stories of his own. The characters relive the stories as they tell them and ".. .by morning a unique bond... has evolv­ ed between the family and their guests." The cast of this narrative drama includes James Hogan, Max Smith, Dan O'Connor, Clifford Retallick, Kristi Nicholson, Todd James and Kirk Stamey, with Cliff Retallick as the Assistant Director. Three student one-act plays, tonight at 8:00 in the /. G. Greer Arena Theatre. you should love this! The cast is com­ posed of Mark Loman, John K. West, Joie Melton, Steve Hughes, Danielle R. Drapeau, Wendy Jones, Douglas Beckham and Scott Sim­ mons. If you happen to be busy Thursday night, never fear. You can still see all three plays Friday and Saturday night at the I.G. Greer Theatre for $1.00. Tickets may be reserved by calling 262-3028. Come on out for a night of laughter and support our theatre department! Monday afternoon at 4:30, the A.P.P.'s Stage Show Council held a meeting to plan upcoming events for ASU. The Stage Show Council consists of around 20 students who serve on a voluntary basis. Their duties are to decide which acts to invite to Boone, and then once an act is coming, the Council handles publicity and pro­ vides hospitality to the entertainers. Monday's meeting began with brainstorming to come up with pros­ pects for an open date at H'Appy's. Kim Wall, elected chairperson, called for ideas from the group. Once the ideas were gathered, Randy Kelly, who is the Council's advisor and was once a booking agent, informs them of price range problems or of any bands that are no longer together. The musical tastes of the students on the Council are diverse and they strive to please all the students with the planned shows. During Monday's meeting progressive music, beach, hard rock, and Top 40 bands were all considered. Once the Council decides on several shows that they would like to invite to ASU, Kelly begins to con­ tact the groups and handle the business end. The next area of business was pro­ motion of upcoming events such as Fetchin' Bones. The Council makes handbills and banners to place around campus, works with The Appalachian and WASU to provide publicity, and meets the band for interviews once1the band arrives. At each meeting two shows are planned for the upcoming Thursday and Friday or Saturday. : There were many exciting events discussed at the meeting. This Satur­ day H'Appy's will not be opened.' All students are encouraged to attend tHe Wake Forest game. The Stage Show Council is working with the Yosef Club to organize a funfilled evening in Winston-Salem For ASU students. Before the game the beach band Push will be performing at the Ernie Shore Field at Wake Forest. This concert is free to ASU students and Alumni. Following the game, Vanguard, featuring some of ASU's own students will be playing at Baity's; Music Garden down the road from the stadium. With an ASU ID, students can get into Baity's at the membership price. Plans are also starting for Homecoming weekend. Slated for Homecoming are The Outfield, Jane Powell and Chairman of the Board. The A.P.P.'s Stage Show Council is an important part of campus. Th&y invest a large amount of time in pro­ viding entertainment for the students^ Anyone interested in joining the < Council should see Randy Kelly ©j; plan to attend the next meeting. " Meetings are held at 4:30 every Mon­ day. The final play of the evening will be The Real Inspector Hound, written by Tom Stoppard, a lighthearted murder mystery. It involves a murder mystery being reviewed by critics who are eventually drawn in and become part of the action. Directed by J. Kevin Smith, The Real Inspector Hound promises to be a hilarious spoof on the standard British mystery fare. If you enjoyed Haunted Honeymoon, Universityproduces Summertree Ron Cowen's powerful awardVvinning drama Summertree will be presented by The University Theatre, September 30 through October 5, at 8 p.m. in the Chapell Wilson uditorium. Summertree is the story of a family n crisis, centering around a young an about to turn twenty. It is about *var, both internal and external. As Summertree is the story of a family in crisis, centering around a young man about to turn twenty. It is about war, both internal and external. te play begins, we discover tne young lan dreaming under a large summeree in his backyard. Through a series of flashbacks, we |iscover the young man's relationship ith his well-meaning but obtuse ither, his loving but possessive mother and his compliant but unsent­ imental girlfried. We experience his struggle for independence on his journey to manhood. We also witness war within the family, filled with con­ flicts and confrontations. The young man's inner thoughts are revealed with the help of another character, a neighbor boy, who in ef­ fect is the hero's little brother, and at :imes, the hero as a boy. We also meet a soldier, through whom we discover another side to the young man, and the true location of the peaceful sum­ mertree, Vietnam. The young man is portrayed by M. Palmer Bailey, an ASU junior major­ ing in theatre. Bailey has appeared in several University Theatre produc­ tions, including last season's Deathtrap. Bob Adams portrays the father. Adams is a senior ASU stu­ dent majoring in theatre, who also has many ASU acting and directing credits. He most recently appeared in last season's Alpha Psi Omega pro­ duction of The Foreigner. AnneMarie Williams, a senior broadcasting ma­ jor, portrays the mother. Williams has worked with many University Theatre shows including last spring's production of Blithe Spirit. The girlfriend is portrayed by Michelle Poole, a sophomore theatre major who appeared this summer as Jack in Horn in the West, and the soldier is played by Edwardo Allen, also an ASU sophomore. Summertree will be presented by The University Theatre, September 30 through October 5, at 8 p.m. in the Chapell Wilson Auditorium.

Frozen Ghost tape a good investment By SID Appalachian Slaff Wrilcr About three months ago, 1 attended a Howard Jones pncert. A Canadian band called Frozen Ghost opened the [•ow. Since I'd never heard of them, and was anxious to ,(e Howard Jones, 1 paid little attention to them. Later, I was in a record store and saw a Frozen Ghost pPe- Remembering the name from the concert, I decided P buy the tape. After playing the first song, I realized that s w&s a talented band. The first song, "Should 1 See," hit the Top 40, but that's about it. With the lyrics, "You take away my right to choose," and "Tell me what I should see, make up my mind for me..." the band expresses its views on censor­ ship. I'm pretty sure the song "Love Without Lies" will be the next release from the album. Also listen for the songs "Promises" and "Time is the Answer." I hope that Frozen Ghost becomes an everyday name soon. This tape is a good investment. It's only a matter of time before everyone knows who Frozen Ghost is. Fetchin Bones play at Fetchin Bones was formed in Charlotte in 1984. Program directors at college radio stations and the na­ tional rock 'n' roll press helped to launch the band, by giv­ ing their two albums, Cabin Flounder on DB Records and Bad Pumpkin on Capitol Records lots of airplay. The band's college radio popularity and club scene pro­ minence soon had Fetchin Bones in the national spotlight. With all this attention, it seemed they could only go up. Fetchin Bones hit almost every critics' "Best" list. Then came December 1986 with rumors that the band had split up. . I They've done some reshuffling, and are back together now, working with Capitol Records. They will will release Galaxy 500, their new album, ori October 20th. The album features the band's current lineup: Hope Nicholls (vocals), Aaron Pitkin (guitar),' Danna Pentes (bass), Errol Stewart (guitars), Clay Richardson (drums). Galaxy 500 was produced by Don Dixon at Reflections Studios in Charlotte, NC. The new album is the third album Dixon has produced for Fetchin Bones. The band will play at H'Appy's on September 24. �"N s 1 1'HE APPALACHIAN THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDAY,SEPTEMBER 24, 1987 SPORTS R» Berry Epley Dooley's Deacons TBOV DOUGLAS By TROY nnirm AS — — games.

Sanders, you see, had high expecations .for the '86 season, but once the season rolled around, he had been relegated to third-string tailback behiftd John Settle and Ritchie Melchor, whereas he was on the se­ cond team his freshman year. Last year, I wasn't as prepared because I was coming off an ankle surgery," Sanders said. "Not fumbling the foot­ ball is a standard for ASU tailbacks. Coach (Don) Kirk pat rick sets that as a team goal. We can 7 put the'fall on the ground." Tim Sanders The Thomasville junior has over­ come those problems this year and is now ASU's leading rusher and number one tailback. In last week's 27-10 victory over VMI, Sanders rushed 18 times for 160 yards; good enough to earn him The Appalachian co-Athlete of the Week. Sanders has amassed 246 yards on 42 carries this year for a 5.86 yardsper-carry average, that is a familiar statistic for Sanders, who despite reduced playing time, led the Moun­ taineers in yards per attempt at 5.81 last year. "This year I came in with the at­ titude that I would start no matter what," Sanders said. As the Southern Conference's Freshman of the Year in 1985, Sanders rolled up 419 yards and six By SABRINA SELLS Appalachian Slaff Writer ^ % Appalachian Photo by Soon Moor* CAREER DAY: ASU's Tim Sanders rushed for a career-high 160 yards on 18 carries in last week's 27-10 spanking of VMI. At the half of e rainy aturday, the score was 10 all and ASU fans were pouring out e gates like the game was in the won column. Fan support or not, Sanders will need a similar day against Wake Forest in this week's en­ counter. Western Kentucky, Sanders piled up 141 yards, good enough for con­ ference Player-of-the-Week honors. 'Last week's game especially brought back memories from Western Kentucky two years ago when I rush­ ed for 141 yards," Sanders said. At 5-10, 217, Sanders' build can easily be compared to that of Settle. Sanders also learned a lot from the former ASU All-American. "I learned from John (Settle) to always run hard no matter what," Sanders said. "He helped me learn how to read the key blocks well." Sanders seems to have picked up on another of Settle's strong attributes; he hasn't fumbled the football in 1987. Sanders said. "Coach (Don) Kirkpatrick sets that as a team goal. We can't put the ball on the ground." Sanders was a three-sport letterman in his playing days at Thomasville High School. He was all-conference, all-county and all-area his junior year before being named all-state in his senior season. Sanders high school team finished second in the state in his junior year. He's also been accustomed to winning at ASU as the Mountaineers are 17-5-1 in his two seasons. Although Sanders is pleased with last week's outing, he looks forward to playing the rest of the season. "I had a good game last week," Sanders said. "But I can't lav hack The 5000-meter cross country course at the Davidson Invitational was a demanding one, and ASU's Beth Ruggles was relieved when she crossed the finish line last Saturday. Ruggles placed first overall and set a new course record of 18:25, crushing the old record of 19:42. For her brilliant performance, she is The Appalachian co-Athlete of the Week. Ruggles, a senior from Hildebran, is off to a good start in her final season at ASU and women's track Coach John Weaver is impressed with her early performance. "She's had a real good year so far," Weaver said. "Last year, she was set back with a stress fracture, but this year she's running well and is back in good form. She's already bet­ tered her personal best at Davidson which was a tough course." The stress fracture in her foot kept Ruggles out of competition for almost the entire 1986 season.

Tailback Tim Sanders (42-246) gained a career-high 160 yards on 18 carries to lead the Apps. Doug Beaty continues to get more work from the fullback position. The Apps can't afford not to use him. Don't forget about Ritchie Melchor (33-166). He's still running hard. With the primary tailbacks averaging 5.5 yards a carry, why worry about passing the ball. With the coming of Coach Bill Dooley, comes something foreign to Wake Forest: the running game. The talent is there with the running backs. Darryl McGill has a shot at the All-ACC team. When he sprained an ankle against NC State, Dooley sends in Mark Young, who promptly rushes for 144 yards. The question Mark is whether the Wake offensive line can do the job against ASU's big front line. ADVANTAGE GAMES—SEPTEMBER 26 The special teams of ASU and WFU have one thing in common: they like to come after the opposition's punter. Wake has blocked two kicks this year and ASU has blocked 16 in their last 27 games. This area could well decide the ballgame this year. In what is expected to be a low-scoring affair, the punters (ASU's Tony Cox and WFU's Martin Bailey) will decide the field-position battle. Wake's Wilson Hoyle and ASU's Bjorn Nittmo are both consistent kickers with good range.

EVAN ASHBY Head Team Physician Guest Prognosticator Wake Forest ASU at Wake Forest The Citadel at Army Western Carolina at ETSU ASU's Todd Payton was solid in last week's win going 9-17 for 91 yards. ASU Coach Sparky Woods is satisfied with Payton's pro­ gression thus far. Payton's favorite target, Wardell Jefferson (10 catches for 160 yards) is still questionable with rib injuries suffered in the VMI game. If Jefferson can't go, Payton will probably look to Sam Wesley. The Deacon passing game was hurt with Dooley's presence. But Mike Elkins can still throw the ball if needed. Greg Scales at 6-5, can go over most defensive backs for receptions. Elkins led the ACC in total offense last year and is capable of putting big numbers on the board, such as his 264 yards against ASU last year. Last week, the Mountaineer secondary proved it may be as good as any in ASU's past few years. But against the Deacs, the pressure rests on the defensive front line and linebackers. Inside linebacker and leading tackier Kenny Blacknell will need perhaps his biggest game ever. If the Mountaineers don't stop the run, they won't have to worry about stopping the pass because they won't ever see it. The Deacon defense is much improved from last year. They have allowed just one field goal in two games this season. This bunch is led by the head-hunting linebacker, Jimmy Simmons. A.J. Green is a top defen­ sive back in the ACC. Yards will not be easy to come by this season.

Opinion Page Editor CHRIS COLE, Photography Editor OPINION RAGE ANNETTE BRANDLE, Copy Editor MICHELE HOLLOWELL, Assistant Copy Editor PAMELA CARTER, Circulation Manager JODY BROWN, Editorial Production Manager Experience of less value to business When the College of Business's accreditation was placed on proba­ tion last spring, many students and faculty became distressed at the ^ possible consequences of a loss of accreditation from the American V Association of Collegiate Schools of Business. The administration has always placed a higher priority on keeping ASU a teaching, university rather than one that stresses research. In keeping with this goal, the College of Business placed emphasis on hir­ ing instructors with actual experience in their fields instead of only research professors. It seems their accreditation is on the line because the college tried to provide students the most realistic education they thought possible. • The college is known for its high quality programs, and experienced instructors are part of that reknown. It is ironic that the very aspect of the programs that make them work would put the college in danger of "'damaging its reputation. * Secretary of Education William Bennet shares the same opinion about research versus teaching as the ASU administration. More em­ phasis is being put on what students know about the business world upon graudating than, as Bennet expressed, "How many books are in the library." UThe College of Business recognizes that need to remove the proba­ tionary status of their accreditation to protect the college's reputation. Unfortunately, in order to protect themselves, they are having to put more funds into travel monies for faculty to present research at con­ ferences and hiring more doctoral professors. f . While the end result of these changes may prove beneficial, the idea df having to make them at all indicates that the AACSB puts more em­ phasis on the status of instructors rather than the competency of the business graduates. New editor joins The Appalachian The Appalachian would like to welcome Ashley McAdoo to the staff as the Diversions Editor. The Diversions section will provide readers with columns, reviews and announcements on various events on campus and in the communi­ ty. Everything from plays to local bands to art shows and movies will be reported. Diversions is soliciting a wide assortment of opinions about these events and productions and hopes to offer the campus new ideas about music, theater, movies and art. Anyone interested in writing columns or reviews for Diversions or wishes publicity for a show or event should contact Ashley at The Appalachian newsroom on the third floor of Workman Hall, 262-6233. When I took the job of Opinion Page Editor, I felt confident that I could tackle the job. I knew I was opinionated enough, and by the barage of letters that have appeared in response to my articles and those of my writers, now I know that the members of the ASU community also know how opinionated I am. In my articles I have attempted to weed out any personal attacks and stick to the issues. I have to my belief that any opinion, no matter how expressed my opinions without implying that I childish or unthought, is valid and should be would deny others the right to their opinions. expressed, I have printed all letters.

Thinking beyond the limits of Boone By AL HUMAN Appalachian Columnist Of recent, a good bit has been said in these pages of how ASU is in the Dark Ages. While I do not necessarily approach this opinion from the same angle that others have approached it, I nevertheless agree. Over the past two years I've spent at ASU, I've noticed some things about ASU and the surrounding town which are un­ characteristic of what I had been told academia is like while in high school. All of these inconsistencies are quite discouraging and disappointing. They have been on my mind for quite a while and I think now is as good a time as any to vent my views on them. I will be the first to admit that my hometown of Gastonia, NC has in it the biggest amalgam of mental cases, junkies, hoods, morons, rednecks, hicks and "Bay Rum" thugs imaginable. However, I do give credit where credit is due. At least in Gastonia, the people have the courtesy and tact to nod, smile and say 'hello' to you before they pull their switchblades out from under their Iron Maiden T-Shirts and plant their blade in your gizzard. A Boone killer, either in town or on campus, would not even bother with these formalities. In a town which shouts its tolerance from the mountaintops, both the students and townspeople alike do not believe in giving strangers the benefit of the doubt enough to be the least bit polite. Walk on any walkway in Boone, modestly greeting everyone you meet, and you will find that they gle at you behind your back, or they respond with only a puckered, constrained smile, After a while, a normally courteous person will become cynically wore out and even­ tually give up the notion of courtesy. One sees similar discourtesy when you're in your car and you're stuck in a spot that you need to get out of. Naturally, I never expected anyone to be like Mack and Tosh the gopher twins when I came to ASU ("Oh nononono! you missed your turn!"... "No! you go first. I insist!") However, one would think that if a college town is more enlightened, the people would tend to treat each other a IfffiFbetter. But obviously, this is too rough a standard to be expected of either the townspeople of Boone or of ASU's students. The person who made up the saying: "I love humanity, it's the people I can't stand" must have been a graduate of ASU. Or maybe it was one of the town derelicts. In addition to the general hostility that people express towards strangers, people here at ASU are cliquish to a considerable fault. Nowhere but at ASU have I seen so many cliques propagated and for some of the silliest reasons. It's not as if ASU is "just like everywhere else" like so many people tell me. Up here, cliquishness is an art Par excellence. At ASU, there is a clique for almost every taste: departmental cliques, organizational cliques, ethnic cliques, religious cliques, regional cliques, ideological cliques and cliques to be cliquish. The victims of this cliquish­ ness are many and you might know or be one yourself. There's the friendly guy who is taken advantage of and made to give up his cafeteria seat so that a fraternity can have an unre­ served meeting at his table. There's the professor of demonstrated superlative ability that could revolu­ tionize the department but who is denied a full-time job or tenure for reasons unknown. There's the average bystander who ventures into the "territory" of a different race and is frowned on by all sides. There's the couple faced with upturned noses and even threatening gestures by the local rabble for being Floridian. There's the Appalachian Columnist who is asked at the beginning of the semester by his newly-assigned roommate if he would pack up and move elsewhere so that the roommate can room with someone of the same hometown and religious background. All of these people are unacknowledged, unrecognized vic­ tims of provincialism and cliquishness on campus and while everyone is planning to march for the latest nouveau cause on campus, no one up until now has said a word against the ugliness perpetrated against these victims. Too many professors here at ASU are not the arch-typical thoughtprovokers who spur their students to take an intense interest in their sub­ ject. They are not the type who pro­ mote an interest in the subject that lasts for years to come. Sometimes it is lucky if some professors can hold their students' interest up until finals. Even after this, the students are often so fed up with the subject matter, that if the department is not their m; they effectively say "screw thedt! ment" and thereby do an injustice the genuinely good professorsii department.

COOKE Appalachian Staff Writer "Our World" was a television show on ABC-TV from 1986 to '87 that was cancelled after one season. This was not a highly successful or popular show, but it was a very unique program. "Our World" was about history. It reviewed a certain period of America's past in each hour, and attempted through use of news and entertainment footage to try to illustrate what that time was really like. It seemed as though "Our World" was a time capsule of American history. It succeeded admirably. The program was an hour that transported the viewer into the chronicled era, reliving a bygone past that many of us were not around for. One of the major drawbacks of scholastic history is that it is mostly on paper, and lack of imagination on the part of the author, teacher or especially the student can render it hopelessly boring. Many students simply cannot find relevance in the seemingly obscure machinations of perhaps, a figure such as Otto von Wstory) (dCSp,te the fact he is a fascinating figure of The dawn of the motion picture and later television pro­ vided the world with a new and useful tool to record history as it happened, to capture a moment in time and hold it there as its actors actually played out history "Our World" was a presentation of this recorded c,f°uy' ^ newsmagazine format.

Dot Fish Publicity Chairman 264-7865 �U THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDA Y, SEPTEMBER 24, 1987 Kids Parking in Hell To the Editor: This is the last straw. I hear all kinds of stories about the A lot students not having enough places to park. Well, what about those of us who have handicap stickers? I'm talking about the legitimate handicap stickers, not those students who somehow found a loophole and obtained one just so they could park anywhere. It would be nice to park anywhere, if there were anywhere to park! What burns me up is that I got my first ticket today. I had no choice but to park on the side of a road. Although my car is small enough that it wasn't in the way of traffic and other parked cars, I guess security felt it warranted a ticket. It wouldn't be so bad if I intentionally parked illegally. My problem, and it seems to be a campus wide problem, is that I couldn't find a place to park, period. It seems nine times out of ten there are J J or A lot registered cars parked in the much needed handicap spaces. I'm willing to bet these people just needed to "run in for something." I'm a student too and I can't afford to sit idle in my car for 10 minutes or more waiting for people to move their cars. For all those students who are capable of walking (and God knows I wish 1 were,) please be more considerate. Our parking places are just as limited as yours are. Annette Brandle PO Box 13040 Skaters welcome To the Editor: I felt that a response to Tammy Walter's article of September 17 ("Hang ten somewhere else!") would be appropriate from an objective and uninterested third party. Many students have noticed an addition to our campus in the form of youthful skateboarders. I found it interesting that in a time when our nation is discussing the tenets of liberty: i.e. "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; all men are created equal," etc., that Ms. Walter referred to these skateboarders as "creatures." My Merriam- Webster Dictionary defines creature as "a lower animal;" that hardly seems "equal." Certainly, a man's freedom to swing his arm ends at the tip of another man's nose. Skateboarders around campus should use good discretion and judgment—as well as respect for others—while enjoying their chosen "pursuit of happiness." Many of these young "pests" are close friends of mine with whom I work in various capacities. They are not, of course, infallible in their youthful judgment and a polite, tactful word of concern would certainly be appropriate. Though I personally do not like skateboards, I am glad to see them outdoors and enjoying their youth. If we are completely honest with ourselves, we may find our hearts still long for past childhood days. Mutual respect from both sides of this issue would bring truth to the fact that as free Americans, we do make compromises allowing for the good of all, and the children we are all called to become. Stanley M. Latta P.O. Box 8465 To the Editor: There has been an ongoing problem at the Mountaineer Apartments. The problem concerns the children of students who live there and their parents. There is evidence that diet and cancer are related. Follow these modifications in your daily diet to reduce chances of getting cancer. 1. Eat more high-fiber foods such as fruits and vegetables and wholegrain cereals. 2. Include dark green and deep yellow fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins A and C. 3. Include cabbage, broccoli, brussels sprouts, kohlrabi and cauliflower. 4. Be moderate in consumption of salt-cured, smoked and nitritecured foods. 5. Cut down on total fat intake from animal sources and fats and oils. 6. Avoid obesity. 7. Be moderate in consumption of alcoholic beverages. / • l • i • • f • t wh.rti cost, so much ,Q ££?** Pe^T ,v» »« ' othf brLood Aqrinq produce, a to,/, — • • A.P.P.S. sajs: ITS TRUE!!!

These apartments generate over a quarter of a million dollars a year in revenue. It would seem a reasonable request for a few hundred dollars worth of "good" equipment for these children. Appreciation of our problem by the college administration would show a true concern for those students who come back to school and must contend with daily family problems as well as those normally encountered by students. We as parents and students are only trying to improve the quality of our family life and the loss of a child is one of the greatest losses encountered. We can only hope this feeling is universal and will provoke action. These apartments, which are owned by ASU, are primarily for married students and as a general rule when people get married, children seem to appear. When these children get old enough to become mobile and go outside and play, they will romp and run and have fun. The problem arises when the only place these kids have to play is the street or parking lot. The residents of Mountaineer Apts have been trying to get some playground equipment for over two years. These requests and pleas have, to date, QUITTING.

Both Holly and her husband work at the Quinn Recreation Center. Holly has worked for intramurals for over a year. To prepare for the opening of Quinn, Holly and the other fitness leaders spent an intense week in fitness training before school started. They got certified in CPR as well as other areas. fY 'Ij Holiy works mainly at the console, check­ ing IDs, checking out equipment, keeping track of building statistics, and supervising the activities in the center.

Now she is active in the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and attends Alliance Baptist Fellowship in Boone. Being a married, work­ ing, full-time student doesn't leave Holly much free time. When she can, though, she likes to play basketball, snow ski, swim, sun­ bathe, and cross stitch.

Any club, organization, athletic team or residence hall interested in entering this year's parade should contact Beth Anne Nordstrom, SGA Public Affairs Director, at 262-2240 before October 10. There is no entry fee. University Of Texas Names Building After Wrong Person Officials at the University of Texas found out last month that they had named a campus building after the wrong person. In 1986 a campus building was named after John Hargis, who in January, 1959, became the first black person to get a degree from the University. A few weeks ago, Edna Humphries Rhambo, a black woman holding a UT degree, called the administrators to remind them that her degree was dated August, 1958. Officials said that campus records did not include race information in the late 50's but now there could be more black Texas graduates preceeding Rhambo. The building, however, will remain named after Hargis. "The seats were almost filled," SGA Vice-President Adelaide Beeker said. "We were generally pleased with the way things went." "The percentages indicate a fairly apathetic student body," SGA Elections Director Patrick Vickers said. "We are the only voice the students have to the administration. Without their participa­ tion, there is no way we can truly represent them." Of the votes cast, 1,451 were collected from residence halls and 266 were collected from off-campus students. Approximately 33 percent of all oncampus students voted and about 4 percent of all off-campus students voted in the elec­ tions. Overall, 15.6 percent of the entire student body voted in the SGA elections. "Even though these figures were small, %J they were average when compared to the national percentage of voters during any major elections," SGA President Cary Anne Wolf said. "The percentages indicate a fairly apathetic student body. We are the only voice the students have to the administration. Without their participation, there is no way we can truly represent them." Patrick Vickers ^mmmmSG^ElectionsDirector "We are currently looking into ways to increase voter turnout," Vickers said. "Even though the reason for the low voting numbers were probably many, the main reason accounted for was a lack of interest among the student body. Next year more information about the role of SGA senators will be provided," Wolf said. Tuesday September 22, 1987 NCTVloffers new variety By JULIE WELLS By JULIE WELLS {aries taries Appalachian Staff Writer ASU will receive a new cable chan­ nel called NCTV, National College Television, which will air over Chan­ nel 32 beginning September 28. "The channel is new, different, and is aimed toward University students," Professor of Communication Arts Dr. Patton Reighard, said. Programming for NCTV will con­ sist of a wide variety of entertainment for students. A new music video show, "NewGroove with Meg Griffin," will feature the most progressive music videos produced and track modern trends in music. The network will also feature a car­ toon show entitled "Cartoon Classics" and "Campus America," the only national television news magazine for college students. The news magazine will consist of investigative reports from campuses all over the United States. A documentary show entitled "Uncensored" will feature documen­ of of hard_hittin„ hard-hitting C0ntr0versia controversial issues and profiles of American heroes each week. "Richard Brown's Screening Room" will host leading filmmakers and actors previewing their latest films. Programming will also include a national college soap opera that follows the romance and intrigue of life on a college campus. "University," co-produced with college students and faculty, is the only college soap opera available on television. "The Green Hornet," a 1960's television adventure series starring Bruce Lee, will also be featured. "Academic Affairs has invested approximately $5,000 into equipment for the program," Reighard said. "There will be no operating cost because the program is commercially sponsored." "We are really excited about it, because I think it's something students will enjoy since it's program­ ming just for students," he added. Who's Who Nominations Now Being Accepted The SGA is now accepting nominations for col­ legiate Who's Who. To be nominated a student must have accumulated 75 semester hours and have main­ tained at least a 2.5 GPA. ASU students may nominate themselves or nominate another qualified student.

It began when a group of attorneys volunteered to work on two prob­ lems: murder by lynching and the defamatory portrayal of minorities in vaudeville," Gissen said. "The organiza­ tion grew to encompass all human rights. Human rights are our concern and fighting bigotry is our objective." "The three states with the largest number of hate groups are South Carolina, North Carolina and Georgia." Ira Gissen Gissen then went on to discuss F. Glenn Miller, a former Green Beret who served in Vietnam and who organized the Carolina Knights of the Ku Klux Klan which became known as the White Patriot Party and is now known as the Southern National Front. Miller, unlike most Klan organizations, sought publicity and began calling for marches and rallies which Gissen said pro­ tested various occasions. One of their favorites was the celebration of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday. Miller also sought the NC Democratic nomination for governor and later the NC Republican nomination for US Senator. Gissen said Miller did this because it gave him access to public forums to talk to otherwise good people who normally would not cross the street to hear him. Gissen also discussed other hate groups such as The Order, which he says is the most violent of these groups. "Its members robbed banks, bombed synagogues and killed policemen," Gissen said. Miller has also been associated with this group. Miller was convicted of contempt of court and operating a paramilitary training camp with the purpopse of inciting civil disobedience by a Federal jury in Raleigh, NC and then violated his probation by leav­ ing Virginia. Miller sent letters to 5,000 white racists leaders declaring war on the United States and calling white supremacists to battle against the government, blacks and Jews. Gissen read part of the letter which said that it was the "honor and duty of all 5,000 White Patriots" to pick up the sword and do battle against the forces of evil.. .We will cleanse the land of evil, corruption and mongrels." Miller was later arrested and police found with him ammunition, grenades and bombs. "It's not just newsletters," Gissen said. "These groups feel the government does not represent them because it advocates racial integration," Gissen added. "White supremacists support what is known as the PACE amendment to the Constitution which requires the physical removal of blacks from the United States." Gissen re-emphasized the danger these groups pose to the human rights movement. "The names of the groups change. The leaders change. But the objective remains the same," he said. "The target is not just minority groups but the United States government." Gissen reminded the audience of the bicentennial anniversary of the US Constitution which guarantees equality. "Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty," Gissen said. QA pulls in recruits LANGLEY, VA. (CPS)—Despite campus protests and budget cuts, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) plans to accelerate its recruiting of college students. Plans for a new eight-week summer internship program, in which students must promise not to divulge what they're doing or how much money they're making, were revealed in a let­ ter sent to campus career counselors. Spokesperson Sharon Foster said the agency will recruit at 200 cam­ puses this academic year to seek out the best and the brightest students in­ terested in careers with the CIA. Foster said budget cuts have forced the CIA to alter its recruiting from its traditional "shotgun approach" this year. "If the agency needs employees with math backgrounds, for example, recruiters will visit schools with outstanding mathematics programs," Foster said. Shouting opposition to U.S. policy in Central America, students at the universities of Colorado, Minnesota, Massachussetts and other schools protested the agency's recruiting on their campuses during the 1986-87 academic year. Foster said demonstrations won't persuade the agency to stop recruiting at colleges. Foster also said the CIA is invited by college officials to recruit at schools. "We're happy to go where we're in­ vited. Even though there have been a lot of demonstrations at the Universi­ ty of Colorado, we'll still recruit there because the university invited us," she said. Foster would not say how many students the CIA plans to interview or hire during the 1987-88 academic year. "It's not agency policy to talk numbers. The opposition pays a lot of attention to that," she said. Foster added that the opposition is anyone working against the interests of the United States.

They ended up in car washes and hamburger joints, putting in long hours for little pay. Not me. My job takes just one weekend a month and two weeks a year. Yet, I'm earning $18,000 for college. Because I joined my local Army National Guard. They're the people who help our state during emergencies like hurri­ canes and floods. They're also an important part of our country's military defense. So, since I'm helping them do such an important job, they're helping me make it through school. As soon as I finished Advanced Training, the Guard gave me a cash bonus of $2,000. Then, under the New GI Bill, I'm getting another $5,000 for tuition and books. Not to mention my monthly Army Guard paychecks. They'll add up to more than $11,000 over the six years I'm in the Guard. And if I take out a college loan, the Guard will help me pay it back—up to $1,500 a year, plus interest. It all adds up to $18,000—or more —for college for just a little of my time. And that's a heck of a better deal than any car wash will give you. THE GUARD CAN HELP PUT YOU THROUGH COLLEGE, TOO.

With all of this rushing going on, I never thought working with children two hours a week would solve any of my problems. If anything, I'd be exhausted and get farther behind. Musings on TRS-80 can get very weird By J. SHAVER Appalachian Staff Writer Writing is a pretty quirky pursuit sometimes. The funny thing is, I've noticed that I get a lot more response to funny col­ umns than ones that actually mean something. This column is guaranteed not 6 to mean anything. Last fall I was engaged in a certain antisocial activity... Okay, I was leaning out a third floor dorm window unrolling toilet paper. ^erTe,wasa str0"f ^,nd catching the toilet paper, so it was actually unrolling itself. The wind pulled it around the corner and made a huge mess on the tree behind the dorm. I do really strange things when I'm bored. Anyway, a group of people who knew me walked by and shouted "Hi Jav.' One fellow looked up and said, "Now you're going to go write about yourself in the paper, aren't you?" themselves*6 ^ ^ thatS ^ nature of writin8- Everyone writes about I like writing columns. They are a much more expressive medium than writing news, which is so formulated that it's only a matter of time until some one programs a computer to write copy. This article, as it happens, is being composed on a word processor A cheap one, but it has changed my life. It's hard to believe how much my battered old TRS-80 color computer does to remove the natural barrier between myself and the page. Now I can turn out twice as much crap with one third the mistakes I would make if I would have written this out in longhand and then typed it. In my last column, I attributed a few atrocities to a certain gentleman. While wasn t lying when I wrote the article, he probably was when he told me those stories. Besides, he didn't know the girl was twelve until too late. So give the guv break, folks. This stream of consciousness stuff is sort of interesting, isn't it? No? Oh, well, that's what they told James Joyce. Question. Is it me, or is it a little bit difficult keeping Jessica Hahn and Fawn Hall straight? As far as that goes, I used to think that Michael Jackson was real ly Prince on a truckload of tranquilizers. Yesterday I saw the video "Bad ' and now I think he's Karen Carpenter. I'm ninety pounds, and I'm BAD. Yeah, sure. Mikey is a strange guy: You keep seeing stories on the cover of the National Enquirer you would think are fabrications, like the oxygen chamber, or the elephant Man s bones. But with Michael Jackson they have a strange way of turning out to be true Next we 11 probably find out that he really did propose to Elizabeth Taylor! riting is a lonely pursuit, and it can be a little frustrating. It really makes my day when someone tells me they liked my article. This is true of most writers. We like getting feedback. And ladies, in case that last article was too circumspect, I'm shy. Ask me out But I was writing about writing. Let me tell you a trick about writing papers! Remember those outlines they made you write in high school? Your English teacher probably didn't tell you why you had to write an outline, because it seems like most high school English teachers are incompe- You write an outline before you write the paper so that you can organize your thoughts. Then as you are writing the paper, you can look at the outline and see what to write about next. If you re like me, they didn't tell you that, and you would write the outline alter you wrote the paper. They could have saved me a lot of writers block if they would have told me why they were making me do those suckers. One ugly thing I haven't mentioned about writing is deadlines. Like the one I have in ten minutes; bye! Now, however, I look forward to Tuesday and Thursday mornings.

Formed in 1975, SEMA was created for those who have an interest n Medieval Age. Currently the association has about 300 members according to newly elected President 3r. Judith Rothschild. Various sessions of the conference overed topics such as Medieval ^rama, Women in Medieval Societies ind Death and Self-Death in >hakespeare. Participants who 'resented papers during the weekend's events came from all over he country. Rothschild began to organize the vent in October of 1985. She feels he had "strong support all the way" rom the administration for the °rmidable task. Three thousand five hundred calls or papers to be presented were sent ut; All the papers sent in had to be eviewed and selected by a committee, banquet program was designed, and ntertainment was planned. Rothschild was glad to have the °nference at the Broyhill Inn. ' think that the University has a ;ason to be proud," Rothschild said. Rothschild said she was glad she received financial backing for the project. "A lot of institutions are unwilling to make that commitment," she said, "I'm happy that it is taking place. I'm so happy for the university." There seems to be a great amount of interest in studying this time period. "The multiplicity of types of infor­ mation we're getting..." Rothschild said, "seemingly all the time scholars are uncovering more about the Medieval Age. "One thing leads to another," Rothschild said, "there is a tremen­ dous interelatedness of information." When talking to a group of the pro­ fessors from all over, one definitely gets the feeling they are not the stodgy, stereotypical group of scholars who do nothing but submerse themselves in their own research. The criteria for getting into SEMA is simple. "Anyone who is interested in the Medieval Ages can join," Rothschild said. "This is not a snobbish organization." Some scholarly organizations tend to look down upon you if one is not a faculty member at one of the prestigious Ivy League schools," * Rothschild said, "but in this group, there is real warmth and cordiality." They are open to having new faces around. "SEMA is low key in that we do not require (those who present papers) to be a member, Rothschild said. She feels that doing so makes an organization a bit exclusive of people. Rothschild has been a member of SEMA since 1976. She feels there was a need for this organization stressing that even if the words South Eastern are in the title, that SEMA is not a regional organization. There are members from all over, including Canada. There are many regional Medieval organizations, along with many national and international societies. She also said some professors seem to do nothing but research and never seem to have time to see their students. She said that with the members of SEMA, the researchers are teachers and professors first, medieval researchers, second. "This is important, even though finding out new material is important, too, she added. Rothschild main­ tains there is a networking among the various members. She said they keep track of each other's projects so they can relay information. "There's a tremendous amount of interest in what the other person is doing," Rothschild said.

He has also been commissioned by the resident conductor and concertmaster of the Gulbenkian Orchestra, Max Rabinovitsi, to write a violin concerto scheduled for premiere in the spring of 1988 Chumbley and his wife, Shirley Irek, have just returned from an overseas tour where he played in con­ cert halls from Europe to Japan. Chumbley said his music was very well received wherever he played, but the Japanese are especially fascinated with the music of the Western World. Chumbley relates one incident where he, his wife, and another cou­ ple had tickets to ride a bullet train from Osaka to Kyoto in Japan. They boarded the train and sat down when the conductor, who spoke little English, came to collect their tickets and informed them that they had second class tickets and wpre in first class seats. Their seats were in the last car, so they started the journey to the back of the train. They finally ar­ rived to their correct seats. Just as they sat down, the train stopped. They were informed they had arrived in Kyoto. They had walked the entire 300 miles separating the two cities. Chumbley spoke of his pride in Ap­ palachian State University, and especially of the Appalachian Sum­ mer Festival. He feels this festival, which is unique to any other statesupported school, deserves the respect it is receiving, and he also feels that the school as a whole deserves a pat on the back. We here at ASU should be proud to have a musician of Robert Chumbley's caliber and hope he stays with us for many years to come. Af emories of a different decade Realism rebounds in Oates saga shows life as harsh and gritty By GRANT KYLE JERKINS Appalachian Staff Writer After a sojourn into Romanticism, Joyce Carol Oates has returned to the harsh penetrating light of Realism with inexorable force. With last years Marya: A Life and her new novel You Must Remember This, Oates portrays life as it was, then and now. Actually, she rubs the readers nose in it, because life is not pretty and dainty, but harsh and grit­ ty. The plot of You Must Remember This concerns itself with the Stevick family of the fictional city Port Oriskany, New York during the decade of the 1950's, ostensibly the paradigm of the American Dream. However, the mind is apt to screen out memories of the bad times in favor of the good, which is why many look on this decade as one of peace and fecundity. Rather than a gentle reminder, the title is a brick the author uses on our heads. The Stevick family consists of Lyle Stevick, the father, an intelligent man but not pedantically so; his wife Hannah, the archetypical mother; Warren their only son, who becomes a political activist after returning from the war in Korea; Geraldine, their oldest daughter: Lizzie, the wild one who likes fast boys and fast cars and wants to become a stage per­ former. Finally there is Enid Maria Stevick, Lyle's youngest precocious daughter and Felix Stevick, Lyle's half brother, an ex-boxer with whom Enid has an incestuous relationship. Enid, the focal character of the novel, is really two people: sweet, good, little Enid and sly, treacherous Angel-face. Both are Enid, but at home she is the sweet good girl her parents love. It is Angel-face her sister's friends bring along when they go shoplifting for the exhilaration of doing wrong. Long time readers of Oates' work have seen this idea before in the short story Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been. Everything about her had two sides, one for home and one for anywhere else. Her walk, for example, could be child-like and bobbing, or languid enough to make anyone think she is hearing music in her head. Although written in 1967, this is Enid. Her two halves seem more con­ gruous when she enters into an illfated relationship with her Uncle Felix. Felix is an ex-boxer and a suc­ cessful but dubious businessman, much to his jealous brother's chagrin. He seduces his young niece, Enid, in a deserted hotel in one of many highly charged sex scenes found in these pages. Oates makes no pretense at niceness. From his career in boxing, Felix has learned much about life. He realizes boxing "was just life speeded up." This rings true after reading through many harrowing boxing scenes. He bears a jagged scar through his eyebrow, "prominent like some exposed humiliation." It is his incestuous affair from which he fears exposure. For Lyle Stevick, Felix's older brother and Enid's father, life has sped by too quickly. He is embittered at his lost youth, failing health, and his flaccid sexuality—he has not had sex in eighteen years. The reader is forced to watch the miserable decline of this man from his denouncement as a communist by a McCarthy-era fanatic for knowing that Russia is big­ ger than the U.S. After being humiliated in a grueling interrogation, he is a fallen man with nowhere to hide, until his mind grasps the idea of building a bomb shelter. He decides "all that was left of free will was whether he could save himself and his family from nuclear death." At this time a nuclear war was believed to be survivable, so Lyle uses all his efforts to protect himself from Washington and the Kremlin. The backdrop to this novel is the decade of the 1950's, a decade of con­ formity and Korea, virginity and fecundity, I Like Ike and the bitter defeat of Stevenson, McCarthy and the ubiquitous communists. This novel brings to mind Alexander Zolzhenitsyn who said, "The >ole substitute for experience which we have not ourselves lived through is art and literature." For those who think the novel is no longer an artistic vehicle through which life can be interpreted, this book is a remonstration that the novel can interpret life. Joyce Carol Oates proves once again the banal is extraordinary when we simply take the time to look. k �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1987 EQUIP YOUR RESIDENCE HALL ROOM WITH presents i ALL THE COMFORTS OF HOME i SSI L -®£ X LI EMI Capital Recording \C| Refrigerator $40 Academic Year $25 Semester (Plus $5 deposit) -j TV $75 Academic Year $45 Semester (plus $10 deposit) ir Colo* Trlev itton ASU Residence Hall Rental Program 121 Workman Hall For Rental Information or Repair Service Call 262-2115 Advanced Tickets OFFICE HOURS Monday Tuesday Wednesday 1-3 1-2 2-4 Wed. & Thur.

[nCROSSFROMenunT """»q T on t Blad biggJ behil sach back «rati :he v iven 5oini �> SPORTS Sanders scampers past Keydets Mike Smith By TROY DOUGLAS Appalachian Staff Writer Ho hum start can't disappoint the fans So, Appalachian State football is off to a 2-1 start, as expected. Saturday, ASU rolled past VMI 27-10 to successfully begin defense of their Southern Conference crown. Despite this beginning, App faithful can be heard saying, "What's wrong 6 with us? But remain calm. It s far from time to push the panic button. True, the Mountaineers have not been sharp in their two victories. In fact, if it was not for their stonewall defense, ASU could easily stand 0-3 going into this weekend's showdown against ACC rival Wake Forest. The Apps have had to overcome a sluggish offense to pull out two wins, but don't overlook the level of competition or the offense's strides of improve­ ment. Two weeks ago, ASU knocked off James Madison 17-10 to the delight of tew App fans who thought the game should have been a blowout. Although the Mountaineers could have put the game away early, JMU is a top-20 caliber team, something ASU fans conveniently forgot. And Saturday, VMI gave ASU all they could want for three quarters before the Mountaineers won going away. The Keydets, thought of as a perennial SC cellar dweller, have improved their defense and could knock off any SC team with their aerial assault. As stated in the preseason, no league contest is a given, especially since ASU is a marked team as the SC title defenders. If the Mountaineer following had been so concerned, perhaps over half of the 13,911 would not have departed so hastily at intermission with the score knotted at 10. The offense continues to improve behind quarterback Todd Payton. ASU Coach Sparky Woods was thrilled with Payton's performance Saturday. It wasn't attractive to the fans, but Woods pointed out Payton's execution and ability to turn a would-be loss into a gain. "He did everything the coaches asked of him," Woods said. With Payton's confidence growing, the offense's effectiveness will increase taking most of the pressure off the defense. After all, offenses don't easily bounce back after losing 2102 yards and 21 TDs in an All-America tailback. Mountaineer fans must realize that 9-2-1 seasons like last year do not appear in this part of the country very often. Such records are usually reserved for the deep south, Oklahoma, or Nebraska. Asking the immediate consistency of eight or nine wins a year out of a pro­ gram that just three years ago struggled to a 4-7 record is too overwhelming Be patient App fans. "the Mountaineers are coming around: We'll know a lot more after this Saturday s encounter with the Deacons. The Apps will play Wake a tough game as usual, but Woods has not beaten a Division I school and there could be no better time to knock off the Deacs, restore total confidence in the team, and enjoy a two-week residual (three weeks if you include the October 10 Liberty lambasting). ASU, under Woods' capable guidance, will get on track and make a good run at a second consecutive SC title. That run will be aided significantly if the Mountaineer followers will hang in there. Who knows? A breakthrough could be awaiting in Winston-Salem five davs from now. Appalachian State used a stingy defense and a 17-point outburst to overcome a sluggish first half and Virginia Military Institute, 27-10. The game marked the Southern Conference opener for both squads as the Apps raised their record to 2-1 while the Keydets fell to 1-1 on the season. The Mountaineers scored 17 points in a span of six minutes as junior tailback Tim Sanders rushed for a career-best 160 yards on 18 carries and scored all three App touchdowns. "It's great to win a conference," ASU Head Coach Sparky Woods said. "I was pleased that we came out in the second half so poised. We fought back and the defense got us on out toes." The ASU defense limited VMI's of­ fense to a mere 58 total yards and three first downs in the second half, and 247 and 15 for the game. The turning point in the game could well have been when VMI, trailing 10-7, moved from their own 45 yard line to the App one. The Mountaineer defense stiffened and the Keydets had to settle for a field goal. "The goal line stand was very im­ portant," All-America defensive lineman Anthony Downs said. "If they scored a touchdown there, we've really got our backs against the wall." The field goal knotted the game 10-10 at halftime, and the Apps went to the locker room to get some needed instructions from the coaching staff. "We thought that we needed to continue to do the things we wqre do­ ing in the first half," ASU assistant Coach David Bibee said. "We felt that we needed to make the most out of our opportunities to make big plays." The Apps finally broke the tie on a Bjorn Nittmo 48-yard field goal with 1:52 remaining in the third quarter. Nittmo was roughed on the attempt and the penalty was marched off on the ensuing kickoff. Nittmo, kicking from midfield, pinned VMI deep in its own territory when his high kick was fair caught by James Wright at the seven yard line. The App defense held on three plays, and forced the Keydets to punt from deep in their own territory. After Mark Stock's 35 yard punt to end the third quarter, ASU had great field position at the VMI 44 yard line. Booters race past Bulldogs Rv ERIC nni icu By FBir BOLASH Appalachian Slaff Writer The ASU soccer team took a lesser Asheville team to school on a rainy Saturday, but not without some encumbrances. Rain, sometimes referred to as the "Great Equalizer" in soccer, plagued Saturday's match in which the Moun­ taineers defeated Asheville 4-2. Freshman goalkeeper David Broderick suffered an injury to the head with about forty minutes gone in the first half. Upon coming out to make a sliding save, Broderick received a kick to the head and was taken out of the game. Coach Art Rex commented, "It is very difficult to play when you have just watched a mate walk off the field with a mouthful of blood." Difficult, it was. Within the next five minutes, at 41:25 and 41:41, HANDS: ASU wide receiver Wardell Jefferson caught this pass from Todd Payton for 17 yards in the Mountaineers' 27-10 victory over VMI Saturday. Jefferson has caught 10 balls for 162 yards this On the drive's only play, Sanders scooted through a big hole off the right side, eluded a couple of wouldbe tacklers, and hit paydirt from 44 yards out, aided by wide reciever Joe Briggs' downfield blocking. The score pushed the App lead to 20-10 just eight seconds into the final period. The Mountaineer defense kept the pressure on VMI in the Keydet's next possession. The defensive line forced Keydet quarterback Dave Brown to hurry his throw. The pass was picked off by free safety Leonard Lee, who returned the ball 21 yards to the Keydet 15 yard line. Three successive carries from Sanders netted the final 15 yards, giv­ ing ASU a 27-10 lead and the final points of the afternoon. "That string from midway through the third quarter until early in the fourth quarter really hurt us," VMI Coach Eddie Williamson said.

Credit their kicking game with a great job." Appalachian started the game like they were going to blow the Keydets away. On VMI's first offensive possession, defensive tackle Jimmy Snowden recovered the miscue and the Apps were in business. It took ASU five plays to score, as Sanders scampered 34 yards giving the Apps an early 7-0 lead. The Keydets came back with a seven-play, 78-yard drive that culminated on a John Parrott oneyard plunge .tp, knot the score at seven. Nittmo's 25 yard field goal pushed the Apps ahead 10-7 with 1:30 re­ maining in the 1st quarter. The drive covered 72 yards on 11 plays and ate up 3:46 of the clock. The Keydets then drove 53 yards down the field to the App one yard line, setting the stage for the goal-line stand by the ASU defense. Williamson was satisfied with hi! decision to kick instead of trying to gc for the touchdown in this situation. "No I didn't second guess mysell going for the field goal at the end ol the first half," Williamson said. "Coming away with no points would have been devastating. We hoped we would have a chance to win the game in the fourth period, but we let it get away from us." The App defense was the key to vic­ tory, as they held Brown to 192 yards on 22-36 passing.

Blankenship is not disappointed by The Lady Apps have implemented a new line up strategy to help supply more offense. Blankenship has put two setters into the lineup instead of one. The new set up is working satisfactorily and will be continued. Coach Blankenship has changed Angela Haas from middle blocker to power hitter and Kim Warren from power hitter to middle blocker. Kim Warren's leadership ability is phenomenal. She should be able to pull the team into one unit. The ASU men's and women's cross country teams each captured cham­ pionships last weekend at the David­ son Invitational. Beth Ruggles finished tops among the ladies, completing the 5,000 meter course in 18 minutes and 25 seconds, shattering the old course record by 1:17. Karen Osada (19:00) and Vanessa Tysor (19:04) came in third and fourth, respectively, to lead the Lady Apps to a one-point victory over East Tennessee State, four points ahead of UT-Chattanooga. "It was a tough, hilly course," ASU women's Coach John Weaver said. "I was really pleased with our performance. Beth had a really super time considering the course." Weaver was especially satisfied with the championship because the Lady Apps were forced to run without the services of Jenny Bower, who was hampered by a groin pull. "We did really well considering Jenny didn't run," Weaver said. The men were equally successful in garnering their first championship since winning their own ASU Invita­ tional in 1984. Dean Duncan continued to impress, finishing second in the 8,000 meter event in 23:44. Pete Vandenburg was a close third at 25:45 and Craig Warren took fifth with a time of 26:10. Those three broke the previous course record of 26:11. "It was great to win on such a challenging course," ASU men's Coach Bob Pollock said. "Time-wise, we competed very well." Scott Vance took 12th place in 26:58 and Morris Piercy was in 14th in a time of 27:02. Pollock's only concern was with the grouping of each runner. "The whole concept is to group the athletes as closely as possible," Pollock said. "We had a little too much time span between our runners. The main purpose of running the Davidson Invitational was to give both the men's and women's teams a chance to see the course where the Southern Conference championships will take place. "Now we know the terrain,". Pollock said. "We can change our training to suit the needs of this course." �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1987 Spurts Continued from Page 5 an image of being a big~play team, the exact opposite of last year's well oiled offensive machine.

CHILDERS ,ULA Appalachian Staff Writer Students need to vote in election Sometimes it seems as if everything ends up as a fad. Take Tie-dyes, for example. Four years ago the only people wearing them were devoted Deadheads and four years ago there weren't many Deadheads, either. Now it would not be surprising to find a tie-dyed T-shirt color coordinated with Greek sorority letters on the front, the owner thereof listening to the new Dead album on her CD player. The citizens ot Boone have complained for years that students care tie about the goings on ot the town unless they adversely affect the liversity. Students also have complained bitterly about local policies they irceive as victimizing students. Trends have been around for almost as long as society, certainly far before the word "fad" itself was coined. Surely you can think of at least one pre-1960 fad; perhaps automobile tail fins, or Keystone cops. It seems in this modern age of instant information and global communication, being trendy and up-todate is no longer a process of a few years' assimila­ tion and dispersal. The fad can now happen almost overnight and be gone just as auickly. Coupled with this increase in process time, it also seems that trendiness has increased its boundaries as A year and a half ago, ASU bound together and voted to pass the er referendum permitting the sale of alcohol in town. At the time any townspeople predicted that the sudden interest the campus showel in the local politics was due merely to student's desire to have con•nient ABC stores. SGA fought hard to convince Boone that ASU students' concern lout the town went farther than merely the distance they had to travel buy a six-pack. Unfortunately the last local election had a very small student turn•t. Many students who had registered to vote for the beer referendum hose not to vote in the following town and county elections. National elections are not the only time voters have a voice. Every leal election offers registered voters the opportunity to have a say in >eal policy making. By GREY DRUM Appalachian Staff Writer One reason I chose to go to school at ASU was the fact that Boone is a relatively nice place. Not too much traffic (when com­ pared to Charlotte), nice people, clean air, etc. But was I wrong. I can put up with the traffic by walking, but how can I put up with the not so nice people who want to pollute my air? I am not talking about major in­ dustries. I am talking about the little people who puff on little foul smelling sticks of cancer-causing rolled tobac­ co. The Smoker! I believe everyone has the right to do whatever he or she wants to do to their own body, but not around me. It is incredible how people-make a big deal of cleanliness* (you know, "the smell of body odor"), yet no one says a word about how a smoker smells. Not only does the smoker stink but so does his/her clothes, car and home. If it were a choice between the two, I would take the smell of a hard day's work over that of a cigarette. You can tell if a person smokes. They have that certain "air" about them. In addition to the offensive odor, there are also the health risks involved. There is the danger of lung cancer, not only for the smoker but for the nonsmoker who happens to be in the same room. The Surgeon General has warned people for years on the dangers of smoking. (Just look on any cigarette ad or package.) Dur­ ing the week of December 29, 1986, Surgeon General C. Everett Koop warned that secondhand smoke can cause lung cancer and other illnesses in healthy nonsmokers. Studies show that children of parents who smoke !

First, Registrar Macleod said that Drop/Add wasn't set up to make changes for students who had com­ plete schedules. I am a senior at ASU, and personally I have never in any semester taken the schedule I signed up for. It is practically impossible to decipher what classes to take on the basis of a list of time and days taught, course title, and instructor. The catalog offers no better—a thirty-word description of a course, giving a general idea of what is taught; but without actually going to the class, meeting the teacher and receiving a syllabus, it is not a wise decision to take the course. What of the freshmen or other students who don't know the instructor, the course or the depart­ ment? How can one find classes that you really want to take on a sight unseen basis? Second, Macleod said the system was on an upfront basis and students shouldn't have to come back. Perhaps he is not considering those who simply signed up for a class that "sounded good," but for one reason or another, isn't. The time could be wrong, the professor could be one you don't care for, the class may be too advanced or too basic for your needs or there may be too many assignments. I assert that the individual schedules are made by the students, not the school, and it does not make sense to take classes you don't want, need or like. The Drop/Add system is a way of getting a good schedule and if a student stands in line 2'/z hours to change a class, can his or her sincerity be doubted or can he or she be called indecisive? Senate outdoes itself To the Editor: This is a point of information for the student body of this campus. As we all know, SGA elections have just been held. I must say that we do have a fine representation from our student body. The main point to be expressed, of which the student body should be proud, is that the senate meeting held Tuesday, September 15 lasted over five hours. All members of senate should be highly honored for their dedication and perseverance towards the issues facing us at this university. Joseph D. Panzer Senator The old system of Drop/Add at ASU (prior to Fall 1986) was ineffi­ cient, slow and archaic. Yet it still worked better for the average student than the new on-line system—and the on-line system "improvements" have only rendered it less so. I understand the logistics of designing such a system for a large university and the demands it places on people, equipment, schedules and time. I believe the system is the right one for the school, but it needs to undertake some major revisions to allow the average student ample time to examine the classes and find ones he or she really wants as well as needs to take. Success at any venture hinges on enjoying what you do and if one is not able to get a schedule of classes that you feel good about... M.R.

TV room shut down due to vandalism By KEN JONES Appalachian Staff Writer For the second time in two years, the Student Union television room has been closed due to excessive vandalism. Student Union Manager Larry Trivette believes it was merely thoughtless students who defaced the furniture, televisions and floors of the room. "Students don't realize who pays for all this; it comes out of their fees," Trivette said. Most of the furniture, which was re-upholstered last Christmas, has either been torn by the seams, stained by foods or drinks, or burned with cigarettes. "They ignored the signs saying 'No Smoking, No Food or Drinks'," Trivette said. "There's 20 gallons of trash left on the floor daily." Another problem Trivette found was the students not reporting the vandalism. "The students were watching their money get wasted, and no one seemed to care enough to report it," Trivette said. The television room originally drew approximately 25 to 30 guests every hour until recently. "Most students prefer not to come here," Trivette said. "When it first opened it was nice, clean, and pleasant, but in two years, it's grown unaccept­ able because we've been unable to keep it clean." In its earliest stages, the room had sound partitions attached to the surround­ ing walls. The partitions blocked the view from fhe outside, and thus were removed. Also, unadjustable lights were added to discourage vandals who could hide in the dark. Appalachian Photo by Alllton Loyton Although Trivette plans to reopen the television room, he might convert it into a meeting room instead. "If we do decide to reopen the television room, we will prosecute the vandals to the fullest extent of the student court," Trivette said.

The dedication ceremony for the new Dwight W. Quinn Recreation Center took place last Saturday on Quinn's birthday. "I don't deserve it all but I am human enough to enjoy it," Quinn said. Quinn was the fifth speaker at the ceremony. Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs and Master of Ceremonies Dave Mclntire began the dedication and naming of the center. "This is a red-letter day and a very momentous occasion for the university," Mclntire said. Following Mclntire was Director of Campus Recreation and Intramurals Jim Avant who gave the invocation. SGA President Cary Anne Wolf then spoke on behalf of the students. "Ask any student on campus and you'll find they are thrilled to have this facility," Wolf said. Other speakers included Vice Chancellor for Business Affairs Ned Trivette and Chancellor John Thomas. Trivette commented on the building plans plus the many associates, consultants and contractors who were involved with the construction of the facility. Chancellor Thomas spoke of Quinn^nd his achievements during his career both in the legislature and at ASU. "Dwight Quinn has always been in support of youth and is a true represen­ tative of the student," Thomas said. Quinn was the youngest member of the state House of Representatives and served longer than any member. He also served on the ASU Board of Trustees for four years between 1967 and 1971 and was awarded an honorary doctorate of law degree in 1978 by ASU.

Faculty senate discusses changes in registration system Y DOWLESS By HARRY DOWLESS Appalachian Staff Writer 1 ew proposals were introduced :erning student registration at the llty Senate meeting Monday.

Thomas said there is a great con­ cern by many local groups to preserve the Dougherty house and it is estimated that such a restoration would cost $1.5 million. Campus Planning Committee member Virginia van der Bogert said there was great concern over the Ap­ palachian Collection at University Hall. , "Hopefully these new measures will make next semester just as rewarding as the present one, with a lot less of this semesters' headaches for the faculty." "The collection of material ap­ peared to be faring quite well, with all due thanks to D.R. Ross," van der Bogert said."The physical space is pleasant, but the storage and work place was reported to be quite cramped." This report initiated a proposal for expanding the work area. Even though the collection has been moved to a new location, it was also reported that its use had not been slighted. Summer school is to begin on May 30, and continue through July 1 for the first session. Second session begins July 11 and continues through until August 12. Associate Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs Clinton Parker said some major changes were proposed in alleviating the problem of cancelled classes. In next semesters new pro­ posal it was stated that as long as ont student signed up for the class, ther that class would continue in progress. , A new proposal also surfacec which states that faculty members could do work other than teaching of classes. In light of these new proposals, Senate members said it is highly pro­ bable that with these new changes will come new boosts to fees. Budget Committee Chairperson Pat Patton presented a report which spelled out his concerns for full pro­ fessorial wages in relation to other colleges in the state. Overall, the full professor's pay is average, but average at best!," Patton said.

"We've tried in every way we can," Tripp said. Tripp said government recently instituted an income-contingent program that reorganizes loan payments based on a borrower's income.

The 300 member association, founded in 1975, consists of scholars interested in medieval studies. Members teach in many areas, in­ cluding art, architecture, history, literature, philosophy and religion. Vice president of the association, Dr. Judith Rothschild, who is also a French professor at ASU, said 1987 is an important year for the conference because it is the year of the Capetian Millennium, celebrating the 1,000th anniversary of the founding of the C apetian Dynasty in France and the 600th anhiversary of the writing of the prologue to Chaucer's Canter­ bury Tales. The conference will begin with a lecture by Professor of History Charles Young from Duke Universi­ ty. Other featured speakers are Pro­ fessor of History John Baldwin from Johns Hopkins University and romance professor Alice Colby-Hall from Cornell University. One hun­ dred and eighteen people will present papers throughout the three days. There will also be a book exhibit, a performance by ASU's Madrigal Singers directed by Bob Jones, a videotape presentation of a medieval play called "The Easter Play of the Three Marys," and an art exhibition of painting, sculpture and drawings by Nancy Miller. For information on the conference call Dr. Rothschild at (704) 262-2308. Center Continued from Page 1 Inn and Conference Center have all been attributed to his influence and efforts in Raleigh. A bust of Quinn has been erected in his honor and sits at the equipment checkout console-desk. Since the opening of the center two weeks ago, over a thousand students a day have used the weight area, aerobic area, indoor track, eight racquetball courts and the multi-purpose court for basketbal, badminton, volleyball and tennis. "Student reaction has been amazing," Mclntire said. "The first six days it was open there was approximately 6,692 students using the center." In the event that the center reaches its maximum occupancy level, the facility management can deny entrance to anyone due to safety standards. The facility hours are Monday through Thursday from 7 a.m. to midnight, Friday from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m., Saturday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Sunday from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. All equipment check-outs and court reservations can be handled at the Control Counter located at the front entrance. A valid ASU ID will be re­ quired. Lockers are available for use, but all locks and locker items must be removed daily. Any items left will be removed by management. Parking for the Quinn Center is available in the lot next to Conrad Stadium from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. and spaces are available for two-hour periods. "Students need this center and appreciate the fact that we have it now," Mclntire said. "It is definitely meeting recreational as well as social needs of the students and faculty."

By ANDREA ANDERSON Appalachian Staff Writer You're walking across campus, late at night, and someone starts to follow you. Where do you go for help? You're in bed, and someone is try­ ing to get in your door. What do you do? Perhaps you've never had anything terrifying happen to you, or you feel that these things never happen. But, in reality, how safe are you at ASU? When asked to compare ASU with other University of North Carolina Schools, Associate Vice-Chancellor for Student Affairs Barbara Daye said, "We feel that ASU is a safe campus. We have a history of our campus being a safe campus." Students shouldn't be lulled into a false sense of security, either, Daye added. Last year, several officials from the administration and the Student Government Association took an organized walk around campus after dark to try to spot unsafe areas. The group looked for unlighted areas, and areas where existing lights were burned out or damaged. The result was a much brighter and safer night­ time environment. One improvement made this year was the installation of nine blue-light security telephones located around campus. These telephones are con­ nected directly to ASU security and give a person a link to security in an emergency. SGA President Cary Anne Wolf said, "One problem with the system is that many students don't know where the lights are located." More publicity about the system should help with that problem. The student needing assistance opens the box and presses the button inside. This immediately dials ASU Security and gives the individual voice contact with the office. Even if there is no contact, the system tells Security where the call is coming from, and an officer is dispatched. "Three minutes response time is the goal," Tugman said. So far there have been no reported emergencies on campus where the system had to be used. There have also been no pranks played on securi­ ty with this system. "We do feel that we've got a safe campus," Tugman said. "I think that been extended since last year.

Its called Open Mic. If you've ever wanted to be a deejay and play your own type of music on the air, this is your chance. "We're inviting people up here to play deejay for a day," Program Director Jamie Smith said. "The idea of this program is to get different kinds of music on the air." Open Mic got its start when Direc­ tor of Broadcasting Dr. Carl Tyrie, called Smith into his office one day.' "Dr. Tyrie told me that he had an idea that he wanted to share with me but not to laugh," Smith said. "Dr. Tyrie wanted to know what I thought about Open Mic, and I told him that it was a great idea." WASU offers a wide variety of pro­ gramming to its listeners. Open Mic provides listeners with the opportuni­ ty to add to the diverse programming by coming on the show to play their particular style of music. "I'd like to see an incredible number of people come on the show," Smith said. "I'm hoping we'll get someone to come up and play folk music. And if anyone has collections of foreign music or imports, I'd love to see them come on the show," Smith added. Open Mic is hosted by Jeff Todd. When someone comes on the show, Todd runs the board and lets the guest introduce their music and play it on the air. Todd may ask questions to find out why they like their type of music. In most cases, a person is express­ ing an aspect of their personality in the type of music they listen to person featured Bob Dylan's on the show. "One of my goals was to bring diversity to the station. Open Mic helps to serve this purpose by getting the University and community involv­ ed," Smith said. If you have a particular style of music you would like to play on Open Mic, contact Jamie Smith at 262-3170. Burning Giraffe, local band, rocks the Pu By STEVEN GEBEAUX Appalachian Slaff Writer College is a hot bed of talent with students improving their abilities and skills and ASU is no exception. There are many diverse bands around Boone and many people wishing to form a band. The main reason one student said he came to ASU was " to form a band." There are several types of bands, such as blues, jazz, progressive rock, and alternative. Last year some of the local favorites were Square Red White, Not The Numbers and Discord. While some bands break up and others form from the fragments, other continue playing together. An example would be Not The Numbers who are currently in the Raleigh area. Two bands that hope to follow in Not The Numbers' and other bands' footsteps are Burning Giraffe and Outer Limits, which advertised with some of the most inventive show posters ever seen for local bands. Burning Giraffe was formed in April of 1987. Andy Hissett met Jimmy ester in March at the Bavarian Inn. They talked about their mutual interest in music and thought about starting a band. Soon afterwards they had a five member band. They got the name from a painting by Pablo Picasso. issett plays percussion and drums. He has been working with the drums since the sixth grade. Hester is the lead keyboardist. He has taken classical music lessons from second to eleventh grade. The second keyboardist is Matt Hatch. Hatch learned how to play the keyboards after the band started. Playing bass is Ken Jones. When the band started, there was no bass player 1 hey wanted one and Jones wanted to learn, so he picked it up The vocals are supplied by Leigh Woody. She's been involved in choirs and musicals and received voice lessons since third grade. Their first performance was at the Boone Street'Dance in May. Burning Giraffe was soon joined by Ellen Everette as another vocalist after that show e then, the band has performed at the Night Shade Cafe in Greensboro several parties and The Pub twice. Burning Giraffe hesitated to classify their music. ^ "We,Jre Burning Giraffe," Jones said, "an original band with original music. Woody and Everette write the lyrics and the band adds the music." The band enjoys playing and said they hope to sign a contract sometime We need somebody with a lot of money," Jones said. They are in the process of recording a demo tape. Another Boone band is the Outer Limits, consisting of Will Marley, Rob Schladensky and Greg Pope. All three of the members know each other from AjU . Schladensky left the band Square Red White and Outer Limits was formed in January of 1987. The name came from a late night discussion of the band They took a break to watch television and The Outer Limits, was on the screen Marley plays guitar and sings vocals. He has played the guitar for more than two years. He got the job of vocals because no one else would do it. Schladensky and Pope both play drums and the bass. Schladensky has played the drums for nine years, while Pope has pounded them for 12 years Both have played bass for three years. Marley writes most of the lyrics, with help from Pope. They have enough material for about a five hour performance. They have played at the Milestone in Charlotte, Apollo's, The Pub St Sinner's Cafe and parties. Marley described their music as "original progressive rock" with influences from bands such as Rush, The Police and The Replacements. The band enjoys playing and plan to continue. "School is first, but if.. .the opportunity comes, we will take it," Marley said about contracts. They have both a demo tape and a video tape for listening and viewing.

The stage is quiet cold and empty. Before your eyes, it suddenly comes alive with a parade of different personalities brought together in the Family Day Variety Show. This year A P.P.S. has succeeded in bringing together acts as diverse as breakdancing and the BSA Gospel Choir. There will be seven acts featuring singers Phillip Smith, Kimondra Thompson, Ann Black, the BSA Choir, Chns Conner and Ned Barnwell doing a banjo/acoustic guitar duet, and breakdancer Ralph Holhfield. ."I can 1 stress enough the sacrifice the students are making," Assistant Director of Student Programming Jean Hord said. The idea for the Variety Show came from a brainstorming session with Associate Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Barbara Daye. I m excited about it, Daye said. "It gives people an opportunity to see me at tsthe, students who are extremely talented. •vend, The plan was to make Family Day a more comprehensive university event. A variety show was settled on as something that would be entertaining to the great students and to their parents. Daye is hoping this event will encourage more students to get involved in the Jsually Mountaineer Talent Search because that's where the majority of the part­ lias b( icipants in the show are selected. s.| The students are donating their time for the rehearsals," Hord said. "They y any are also giving up a part of their home football game weekend." 'e aboii "We pooled the talent we already knew about," Hord said, commenting on throti how the students were selected. 5- The This is our first Variety Show, but we hope it will be an annual event," ly twc Chairperson for the A.P.P.S. Special Events Planning Committee Lori Penn­ Pen ington said. -rvieu. The people in her committee had to work a long time to get this show plan­ Ade ned, starting with the very first meeting of the year nearly a month ago. sident "A.P.P.S. needs more people. Special Events needs more people. I need VP,J people who can dedicate a lot of time to help program and advertise events " Pennington added. The show starts at 8:00 p.m. and costs one dollar. "We're anticipating 1,000 people will attend," Hord said. Rick Hubbard, a professional entertainer will emcee, and Director of Minori­ ty Affairs Willie Fleming will be the pianist for several of the acts. He will be singing a duet with Kimonda Thompson that should send chills up everyone's spine. Thompson won last year's Mountaineer Talent Search. Before that, she sang to benefit Hospice, and in her church choir at home. She seems a little shy until she starts to sing. Then she opens her mouth and lets out a tune you won't forget for a long time. Neil Barnwell was surprised he was going to be in the variety show with his partner Chris Connor. "I didn't know that I was going to be doing this until yesterday (Tuesday,)" Barnwell said. Connor signed Barnwell without asking him first. They have worked very well in the past. "We've got our act pretty well polished," Barnwell said, not meaning to sound cocky. "It's just get up there and have a good time." Another performer of a different stripe is breakdancer Ralph Hollifield. "I've seen him run up a beam and flip off of it," Hord said on his agility. "I don't have a real set routine in my mind," Hollified said. "But I do anything that the crowd might like." He has been dancing professionally for about four years and about seven /ears all together. Hollifield competes as a member of the "Dream Team," a :ompetition group from Winston-Salem. One of his dancing ambitions is to become a Peter Adonis dancer. A good show and a good time is what you'll get at the Variety Show Saturday ^IPS M on Restaurants By GEORGE L. HILBISH Appalachian Staff Writer Boone has been well endowed with Italian restaurants over the years and those of us who have been here awhile have seen many come and go. One such restaurant that has held on in the area, and for good reason, is known as Casa Rustica. The biggest reason Casa Rustica has prospered in this area is because of their good food, plain and simple. It's not enough to just have a nice dining room, which Casa Rustica does, a restaurant should provide a well-rounded dining experience. Casa Rustica recognizes the wants of their customers and are proud to set high standards and to meet those Appalachian Photo by Byrd Burgess CASA RUSTICA: an authentic Italian dining experience. demands. The restaurant started as an Italian restaurant and remains Just that, specializing in homemade pastas, veal and chicken dishes and a wide selec­ tion of seafood and American cuisine. A trademark of Italians is they like to eat. Casa Rustica will not send a person away hungry. Most of their meals are served with a fresh garden salad and dinner rolls. (Homemade garlic bread is available for a minimum charge and is well worth it.) Brownbagging is allowed and both domestic and imported beer are available. Casa Rustica also boasts a nice selection of wines perfectly suitable for all of their entrees. If you're worried about the price range, don't. Casa Rustica's menu is very reasonably priced, easily accom­ modating a college student's budget. Casa Rustica is located on Highway 105, south of Boone just before High Country Inn. They are open daily for dinner at 5 p.m. except Tuesday. Bon Appetit.

The Apps struggled with the Kevdets last year, but managed to pull out a 19-6 victory. II ASU Coach Sparky Woods expects mcfre of the same when the two squads lock up in Conrad Stadium. "V.M.I, is always tough," Woods said. "They are a military school which means they won't quit and they are very disciplined." The Keydets have perhaps one of the best pass-catch duos in the Southern Conference in quarterback David Brown and receiver Mark Stock. Brown must be licking his chops looking at last year's game film. He completed a career-like 19-33 passes for 422 yards against the Apps in 1986. "Brown has all the tools," Woods said!. "He's got a strong year. Includ­ ed in this was a 93-yard touchdown catch. Stock, who might be the best athlete in the Southern Conference, has a string of nine consecutive games in which he has amassed over 100 yards receiving. Stock also handles the punting duties, and returns punts and kickoffs for the Keydets. When Brown wants to run the ball, he likes to hand off to fullback John Parrot. Parrot, a big bruising rusher, has averaged 4.7 yards per carry over his career and is an all-conference can­ didate. Tailback Joe France saw ex­ tensive duty last week in VMI's opening-game win over West Virginia Tech, 24-3. France rushed 17 times for 79 yards. The offensive line is a big, strong, experienced unit that protects Brown well. Center Bill Powers leads this quintet that averages 6-4, 250. Defensively the Keydets are hardnosed and aggressive. They are a hard-hitting bunch that is much im­ proved over past years. Up front Erich Diebl, Robert Sunson, Todd Freiwald, and Pete Lampman patrol. They are good against the run, but excel on passing situations. "They are short, but physical," said Co-captain and offensive tackle James Hardman. "They are probably the best pass rushers we will face all year." The inside linebackers are Kevin Washington and Dan Young. Both are veteran players with game ex­ perience. Washington, a 6-1, 207 senior, was second on the team in tackles with 100 stops a year ago. Young was converted from defen­ sive tackle to linebacker this season. Last year he was an Academic AilAmerican, and had two interceptions against the Apps. Outside linebackers John Adametz and Chris Clark will be called upon to stop ASU's explosive sweep. "V.M.I, is always tough. They are a military school which means they won't quit and they are very disciplined." Coach Sparky Woods Mike Mayo, a veteran, two-time^ all-conference selection will again patrol the Keydet secondary. "Mayo is one of the best in the league," says quarterback Coach Don Kirkpatrick. At cornerback will be Anthony Mcintosh and Tracey Toye. Both players played a great deal last year and Mcintosh is considered a poten­ tial all-conference selection. The kicking game, which has been an area of concern in the past, may continue to be a problem for the Keydets. Last year's punter and place kicker Jim Wall left school in January, and took with him most of the Keydet's experience. While Stock handles the punting chores, two freshmen share the place kicking duties. Richard McMinn will kick the shorter field goals and Wade INCOMING: Wide receiver James Wright (6) Hampton will attempt those from represents one-half of the Southern Conference's See ASU Page 9 best receiving duo along with All-SC choice Mark Appalachian Photo by VMI Sports Intorn Stock. The pressure again rests on the App defen backs to stop a lethal passing attack. Western hands Lady Mountaineers loss in season debut Western Carolina took three of fouY games to win their match against the youthful Appalachian State Mountaineers Tuesday night. ASU coach Traci Blankenship was disappointed in the Lady Apps' perbrmance as they fell, 15-11, 15-11, 13-15, 14-16. "We didn't play up to our poten­ tial," Blankenship said. "Basically, we beat ourselves. We were in­ timidated by the crowd. But this was a tough first match since Western had already played five matches." Berry Epley Owners good guys as strike approaches It you happen to be a fan of the NFL then you had better get your fill of the games played this weekend. The strike deadline is only five days away and with incompetents like Gene Upshaw running the negotiations, a strike will most definitely come d he owners have said that football will continue if there is a strike, but not professional football as we know it. Using USFL and Arena football rejects is not the NFL and as in 1982, the fans are the ones who get cheated. I lie players' union began by asking for unrestricted free agency. The owners, and rightly so, wouldn't even listen. Upshaw really gave in on this issue. Now he is asking for unrestricted free agency for anyone who has at least • our years in the league. Big spenders like A1 Davis have to like this. Davis would have the AFC Pro Bowl team playing for him in Irwindale if the union got free agency. You think contracts are outrageous now? l uckily the management council still refuses to have anything to do with contracts. Chalk one up for the owners. 1 he union is really asking for a strict drug testing program. Sure they agreed to adopt the NBA's discipline program which includes suspensions and lifetime bans, but they covered their tracks well. 1 lie only preseason testing, according to the union, must be done on the same day as the teams preseason physical. Who would be stupid enough to get caught if they knew a year in advance when they will be tested. The owners want authorized unscheduled urinalysis testing. Two for the owners. The players union is asking for protection of team-player representatives 1 he owners have given them that but not enough in Upshaw's opinion. I he owners offered to set up a three-member board which includes a representative of the NFLPA and a neutral party to resolve a player rep's claim of discrimination for union activity. I he owners offered to pay the salary of a player rep who is cut more than three games into the season. Upshaw wasn't satisfied and asked the NFLPA officials cannot be traded or released without their consent. That is absurd. II a team sees a trade it thinks will be beneficial it can't make the move because a player rep won't give his consent. Come on Gene, get a clue. ^ 1 or some reason roster size has suddenly become a major issue. The ^rrent roster size is 45 and the owners have offered to raise it to 47. I he players union has asked for the roster to be increased to 52. Gene really is the cooperating sort, isn't he? Most people feel that if the players were polled individually then there wouldn't be a strike. Non-union players Joe Montana and Ray Wersching have said they will probably play if there's a strike. I his shows that the problem is at the top. I 'pshaw is more interested in making the owners look like the bad guys than negotiating with them. He accused the owners of, "trying to sneak a salary cap in the back door" of the proposal. Explain to me how you can sneak a salary cap in the back door. The owners are either asking for a salary cap or they aren't. I guess what we have to do as fans is prepare ourselves for "Upshaw ball," which is what we will be seeing when the owners bring in lesser talented players. We can also be thankful that the college season will be at full tilt. Blankenship wasn't kidding when she said they were their own worst enemy. The Lady Apps helped hang themselves by committing 12 service errors, a problem that hampered them last season. ASU served at a 19.8 per­ cent clip, whereas Blankenship would "We didn't play up to our potential. Basically, we beat ourselves. We were intimidated by the crowd. But this was a tough first match since Western had already played five matches." — Traci Blankenship like to see them between 30 and 40 percent. "We've got a young team, but we've got to minimize our errors and start capitalizing on our strengths," Blankenship said. "We didn't capitalize on any of our strengths against Western." Freshman Tammy Craig of Durham led the Lady Apps in both the offensive and defensive categories. Craig was credited with 21 kills and 20 digs. Senior co-captain Angela Haas had 15 kills and Holly Ryerse chipped in with nine kills. Western Carolina, traditionally strong in the Southern Conference, looks to again be a contender for the crown. "They (WCU) will definitely be at the top of the conference again this year," Blankenship said. "They had a lot of depth on the court as well as five seniors. But they are definitely capable of being beat." Blankenship was far from satisfied by the Lady Mountaineers' effort Tuesday night, but she has already conceived some ideas to correct the problems. Blankenship will utilize both of her setters in the offense. Co-captain Kris Zubay and Valerie Patterson, both sophomores, will be on the court at the same time in the Lady Apps' next contest at Marshall on Saturday before returning to Boone for the home opener Sunday at 3:30 p.m. in Varsity Gym. The first-year coach was also displeased with her team's ability to block at the net. "We've got to work on our blocks," she said. "The frontline needs to get to the point of being big enough, strong enough, and deter­ mined enough to stop the other team's offense. If it takes a line-up charge, then it will occur."

Athlete of the Week 1937 teai Duncan paces cross country team reunited IM A SELLS By SABRINA en i c Appalachian Staff Writer As ASU's Dean Duncan crossed the finish line in last Saturday's cross country race at the Wake Forest In­ vitational, he set a personal best time of 25:07 and finished fifth in the field of 120 runners. For his outstanding achievement, Duncan is The Appalachian Athlete of the Week. Duncan, an Ashville native, transferred from Brevard Junior Col­ lege to ASU last year. As a sophomore at Brevard, he was runner-up in the National Junior Col­ lege Championships in the indoor two mile run. While he excelled last Saturday in the cross country event, Duncan is a versatile athlete. "He can run 800-5000 meters which gives him quite a bit of range," ASU Coach Bob Pollock said, "He has the speed to go shorter distances and the strength to go longer distances." Duncan's first love is the cross country event which he has been run­ ning for over seven years. This ex­ perience paid off in Saturday's trek as Duncan led the ASU team to a second-place overall finish in the rain on a wet and soggy 8000-meter course besieged by tall grass and mud. The course was previously a horse-racing course. The poor condition didn't hamper Duncan's performance. Appalachian Photo by ASU Sport. Information Dean Duncan "I always run better in bad condi­ tions," he said, "But a lot of runners can't, so overall, I believe the bad weather and course did affect the team's performance. Pollock believes that Duncan will continue to improve. '' He has been doing a great job and has been one of our top runners in practice," Pollock said. "His time is really good for this early in the season. It should be an indication of better things to come." He's given depth as well as quality to the team. He's going to make a big impact in the Southern Conference as well as the indoor and outdoor track seasons. Duncan agrees with Pollock's assessment. "I felt good when I finished the race," Duncan said. "But physically, I wasn't as tired as I should have been. I didn't run hard enough. I haven't trained hard enough to get my speed exactly right." "I want to help lead the team and make a contribution to our overall performance. My place individually doesn't really matter. I want to help the team win the Southern Con­ ference Championship." As for a personal goal for the season, Duncan would like to run a 24.30 over five miles. He's certain he can reach his goal, too. "Saturday, I couldn't get my head in the race, so that kept me from do­ ing my best," he said. "But as the season moves along, I'm sure I'll be able to excel better mentally, as well as physically." Don't be surprised to see bigger and better finishes from Duncan as the season continues to progress. His hard work in practice and dedication to the team is proving to be "right on track" for a conference champion­ ship.

And then the offense does a disappearing act. The tailback tandem of Ritchie Melchor (122 yds.) and Tim Sanders (107 yds.) has been adequate, but not over­ whelming. Last week, ASU Coach Sparky Woods extensively used fullback Doug Beaty (67 yds. rushing, 46 yds. receiving vs. JMU) with effectiveness. Woods will need a ballcontrol offense to keep VMI's passing game on the bench. VMI may try to establish some semblance of a running game, but won't be able to. Joe France rushed 17 times for 79 yards in the Keydet's 24-3 win over NAIAmember West Virginia Tech. * Running e long range. The Apps aren't taking the Keydets lightly and know that it is an impor­ tant contest. A loss could put a dent in their title hopes. "It's the first conference game for both teams," Woods said. "They've got a chance to knock off the defen­ ding champions and seventh-ranked team in the country." "They are a senior club, so it's now or never for them." "We are expect­ ing a war." The Apps are hoping to continue the tradition that they've established as being a non-hospitable host. The Apps have a streak of 13 straight regular season games without a loss dating back to the 1984 season. Senior fullback Doug Beaty says The ASU passing game improved last week. QB Todd Payton went 14-26 for 162 yards, 135 of which came in the first half. Woods showed that despite a poor showing at South Carolina, he still has confidence in Payton. WR Warded Jefferson continues to impress with 94 receiving yards on four catches last week. Passing is VMI's game. QB Dave Brown abused ASU last year for 422 yards, a school record. Brown will be looking for his favorite target in WR Mark Stock, an AII-SC selection. Last week they hooked up for 126 yards on eight completions, accounting for over half of Brown's yardage. Passing that it's the added incentive of playing in front of the home folks that is im­ portant to the players. "The fans are great," he says. "We can really hear them out there cheer­ ing us on. The students, the teachers, they are super. Along with the fan support, we don't like to lose in our own backyard." Beaty, along with the coaching staff, feels that the offense is improv­ ing from week to week, but needs to keep working hard to get better in the upcoming games. "We need to come together as a unit," Beaty said. "We must continue to work hard and execute better in the upcoming weeks." The Family Day crowd in Conrad Stadium is expected to reach capacity of 18,000 if the weather cooperates. Game time is 1:30 p.m. PROGNOSTICATIONS — VMI won't be able to run the ball on ASU's huge defensive line. So again, the pressure rests on the App secondary. The defensive backs rose to the occasion last week, especially with Leonard Lee's big hits. JMU could manage only 107 passing yards on eight completions. Expect to see the Mountaineers in Brown's face most of the afternoon. VMI, usually known for their swiss-cheese defense, held West Virginia Tech to 223 total yards. But they cannot consistently stop the ASU ground attack. DE Dan Young had two interceptions last year, both of which came from Payton s arm. Defense M GAMES—SEPTEMBER 19 ASU punter Tony Cox continued his solid work. After two games, he is averaging 40.B yards a punt. But more impressively, Cox nets 40 yards, meaning very seldom do his punts get returned. Place kicker Bjorn Nittmo re­ mains consistent, hitting 2-3 field goals for the year. The VMI kicking game is shakey at best. Stock handles punting chores. He didn't get an attempt last week and punted only seven times last year, averaging 36.4. Think the Apps will come after a few of his punts? Two freshmen share the place kicking. Richard McMinn (1-1) and Wade Hawkins (0-1) both got opportunities last week with McMinn kicking from short range and Hawkins from long range.

The Constitution was adopted in 1787-88 beginning with these lowerful words known as the Preamble: We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, pro­ vide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and to our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America. The spirit of our forefathers' intent provides protection for citizens the United States regardless of personal beliefs, political persuayns and religious affiliations. These rights give citizens the responlility to be well informed and to actively participate in government every level. Our country's constitution has given us freedom in many areas of IT lives as citizens. One of these areas is the right to free press. The press should be free restriction from government and administrative forces. With freedom comes responsibility. Therefore, journalists should spect the rights of those involved in the newsmaking process. These ghts include privacy and the absence of material which could damage person's reputation. However, at the same time, the first amendment gives the media the ^ht to print the truth. Many Supreme Court decisions have upheld the rights and eedoms of the press. New York vs. United States resulted in the full revelation of the ntagon Papers^ Hniccr vsrnes Moines Independent Community School District set recedent by being one of the first decisions sustaining the rights of jdent newspapers. At the time our constitution was drafted, it was delayed in its apoval due to a congress member's refusal to sign without a Bill of ghts. Hie Constitution was returned in order to produce this very portant set of amendments. The fact that freedom of speech and of the press was the first lendment to be considered says a good deal about the importance of edom in communication. Without proper communication, that is communication which puts restraint on expressive opinion, our society could in no way be as vanced as it is now. It takes great minds to make this world go 3und, as history has already demonstrated. Not only should we guard the rights to freedom of expression, but more importantly need to exercise our talents of critical debate, ithout it we become prey to any type of philosophy, when: there ild be a much better and useful way of thinking. Lack of exercising and guarding these rights results in controlled eech and censored press. The right to expressing opinions freely should not be taken for anted or abused, but should be used to benefit the nation as our refathers intended. David Farihina Opinion Pngc Editor of the Bill of Rights would cause some people (Bork, for instance) to think that those rights mentioned were the only rights that people have. In a rapidly changing society, new ideas concern­ ing the rights a person has are fermenting at an incredible pace. At the time of the Constitution, there was no need for the public to have the "right to die," as is the case of terminally ill patients or comatose individuals. There wasn't the technology to create this situation then. But there is now, and complex situations are constantly arising because of this and other unmentioned rights. If the people demand a right, such as ERA or euthanasia, how can the government deny that right because it was not mentioned in the Constitution? The Constitution of the United States is the bible of our political system, and like the Holy Bible the Constitution has a few contradictory statements. As a document written by human beings, the con­ stitution cannot be without error. Indeed, the found­ ing parents of the Constitution knew this and made the document "repairable" through amendments. The Constitution was never intended to be wholly Another famous statement of Bork's is "I never :omplete and error-free. Prohibition is a good exam­ really thought.. .you could hold (the death penalty) ple of a past error that had to be reamended. There unconstitutional when the Constitution mentions it a is a current tide of conservatism which would regard couple of times and assumes it will be applied." the Constitution as complete in its original form. Bork is apparently referring to the fifth and four­ This dangerous, inflexible attitude is embodied in teenth amendments where the phrase "nor be the president's Supreme Court justice nominee, deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due Bork also feels that the Constitution protects Robert Bork.

The statement that no mainstream political speech, but that subversive pro­ life, this decision could affect us for another thirty one may be deprived of his or her life without due tests can be made illegal. Perhaps he has found a years. process of law, according to Bork, means that with new and improved copy of the first amendment If Bork is approved by the Senate, our civil liber­ due process of law one may be deprived of his or her which now reads, "Congress shall make no ties would be the first to go.

Constitution." (The italics are mine.) In other . . .

He uses this reasoning to Constitution does not protect specifically, then the government can put any deci­ make Roe vs. Wade, the Supreme Court decision of sion they make into law. This is an incredible misuse women's rights. He feels any law 1973 barring states from banning abortions, of the Constitution that Bork would perpetuate which discriminates against women unconstitutional. The fourth amendment insures against us all if he is appointed. "the right be in could not be found unconstitutional. sons," but of the people tomustsecurethat their per­ Since the Equal Rights Amendment has not been obviously, Bork feel "secure" ratified, Bork has clearly stated that the Constitution does not mean that a citizen has control of his or her does not protect women's rights. He feels any law person. Without a right to privacy, whether or not which discriminates against women could not be the Constitution specifically mentions it, we might as found unconstitutional. The eighth amendment reads "... nor cruel and well pack up our democracy and head back to The Constitution, however, provides for the rights unusual punishments inflicted." Obviously, the law Europe. of people which are not specifically stated anywhere states that murder is cruel since there is a law against Bork is a dangerous man. If he is approved by the in the document. The ninth amendment reads, "The it, but capital punishment or murder by state is not Senate and moves into this position, the philosophy enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, cruel. of the Supreme Court will also shift farther into this shall not be construed to deny or disparage others Bork is conveniently reading parts of the Constitu­ retained by the people."

Constitution were afraid that creating the document National Enquirer. Evaluating the presidential nominees • .'ii» • i ii>U By SENATOR TERRY SANFORD Gurst Columnist The gravest responsibility of a United States senator, with the possi­ ble exception of voting on a declara­ tion of war, is selecting justices of the Supreme Court. With the nomination of Robert Bork due to come before the Senate this fall, it is worth con­ sidering how a senator should ap­ proach appraising and voting on nominees to the Supreme Court. Supreme Court justices are not or­ dinary presidential appointments, like Cabinet posts and other ad­ ministrative positions. Those appoint­ ments are largely the president's business, and his nominees should be confirmed, with the Senate satisfied to screen out rogues or those with severe conflicts of interest. The Suprente Court, however, is Our only "non-democratic" institu­ tion. Sitting on the court is a lifetime job which the Founding Fathers did hbt intend to be filled by the vagaries of a single individual's discretion, not even that of a president of the United #ate*; The way we select justices was agreed on only after much debate. An early draft of the Constitution—a draft actually adopted—had the Con­ gress elect justices. But in the waning days of the Constitutional Conven­ tion, delegates who favored a stronger executive branch suggested that the president appoint justices. Our Constitution has a compromise between those two extremes. It says the president "shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint... Judges of the Supreme Court." Thus selec­ ting justices is a two-step process. The president nominates and the Senate confirms—or rejects. A misconception has arisen in re­ cent years, one which holds that Supreme Court appointments are the president's alone, that justices should be "his people," and that the Senate should perfunctorily "rubber stamp" his nominations unless the candidate is clearly unqualified or unethical. Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, since our Constitution was ratified 200 years ago, the Senate has refused to confirm one out of every five presidential nominations to the Supreme Court. The Senate exercised early and vigorously its duty to advise and con­ sent. Its rejection of John Rutledge in 1795 is the first example, and one of the best. As an author of the Con­ stitution and a member of the Supreme Court from 1789 to 1791, Rutledge had unquestionable qualifications. President George Washington nominated him to be chief justice. But Rutledge's views on foreign policy alienated many in the Senate. Although Washington objected strongly, the Senate rejected Rutledge. A primary question since then has been whether the Senate can properly consider the political views and ideological leanings of a nominee. I join those who argue that it is entirely proper. I join them in maintaining that the Senate indeed has a duty to examine carefully all aspects of a nominee's background and qualifica­ tions, including his or her political views and judicial and philosophical inclinations. This is not to say that a senator should impose his or her own view on the Supreme Court. Rather, as Walter Dellinger, a professor of law at Duke University, has written, "...a senator ought to probe for evidence of in­ telligence, integrity, and open- mindedness—a willingness to be per­ suaded by cogent argument." Dellinger argues further that if a president takes philosophy into ac­ count when nominating, then senators should take philosophy into account when voting on the nomina­ tion. In 1968, when Justice Abe FortaS was nominated to be chief justice, Senator Strom Thurmond urged the Senate to take an active role. "The power of the Senate to advise and consent... should be exercised fully," he said. To say that the Senate should limit its consideration to Fortas' profes­ sional skill and personal character, Thurmond argued, would be to "hold a very narrow view of the Senate, a view which neither the Constitution nor history and precedent have prescribed." I agree with Senator Thurmond. Ideology should be an element of our consideration. Ideology, whether sympathetic to the left or to the right, generally suggests a closed mind. An ideologue knows what he knows and doesn't want to be distracted by reason or facts or new evidence. That is not the kind of person we want on the Supreme Court. See EVALUATING Page 12 Hang ten somewhere else! By TAMMY WALTER Appalachian Staff Writer How many times have you been walking on campus, just casually strolling along, minding your own business.. .when all of a sudden, bounding out of nowhere, a fast fourwheel vehicle comes turning around the corner screeching before you. Most of the time you'll be lucky; it'll stop it's forward motion two seconds before it plows over you; but usually not two seconds before you've already dropped your books and screamed bloody murder. Then you cuss out the creature riding this maniacal machine. And yes, they do resemble creatures. They have a hard plastic covering on their head, tight, padded bands around the elbows and knees and their clothes usually consist of long, bright shorts topped with a cartooned tank-top. The other features will vary, but you should be able to recognize one if you see it. Of course, I am talking about skateboarders and the crazy idiotic things they do with them while on our campus. The majority, if not totality, of them are young, about 13, and are therefore definitely not Appalachian students. I think the proper name for them, other than pests, are townies. So, why aren't they riding around in town, instead of on our campus? Walking to class is a chore when they're around and I don't need it. I pay to go to classes here and I expect to be able to do it safely, without a lot of teeny-boppers doing board tricks and stair jumps in front of my face. They use any accessible sidewalk for their stunts, and I feel for those individuals that don't see them com­ ing. I'm referring to those people for whom a lot of those special sidewalks were built. The handicapped students. Have you ever wondered why you See HANG TEN Page 12 One bad student attitude affects all To the Editor: I'd like to thank Ms. Childers for her long-needed editorial. The people of Boone are not, by and large, resentful toward ASU students, but, unfortunately, a few ill-mannered louts among the stu­ dent population have managed to make a bad impression. As an eight-year resident of Boone and an ASU student, I've seen some of both sides of the situation. The main problem in student-resident relations is that some five percent of students tend not to afford the locals they encounter simple courtesy. It may come as a surprise to those of you who are guilty of it (you know who you are) that the locals who work in places students fre­ quent don't enjoy overhearing nasty little snickers about their accents, clothes, lifestyles, and the comments indicating that these few, foul students assume that ignorance and inbreeding are common here. Again, this is not typical of all students, but those who are so boorish give the rest a bad reputa­ tion. Another place that some students (probably the same ones; the few, the proud...) make their presence unpleasantly felt is on the roads of this fair city. I realize it's hard to adjust to the driving in a new city, but that's no reason to treat Blowing Rock Road like it's the track at Daytona.

Attitude Continued from Page 11 Music editorial too narrow To the Editor: I feel Scott Crowe's article of September 15 bears response. The piece is not an article per se, but rather an opinion, and I take of­ fense to the opinion expressed. This is a quasi-democratic society and even though Tipper Gore is try­ ing to restrict artistic freedom in song lyrics, I can still listen to whatever album I can afford to buy. Some music does have deep significance, but that is purely up to the discretion and comprehension of the listener. In other words, what means something to me doesn't deem it meaningful to you or anyone else. I don't feel the need to criticize what someone else listens to. Music is a universal language and if it makes you happy to listen to some form, by all means listen to it. I like metal; I've managed to survive three and a half years of college and at­ tain some degree of success in doing so and I don't turn it up to hide the lyrics—the music is meant to be played and listened to loudly. I prefer heavy metal. I resent the implication that all metal is not music and has no decipherable lyrics. Granted some groups are hard to understand, but if you are motivated as such to listen closely, you will know what is going on. Ob­ viously, most folks don't bother ac­ Metal (like pop, jazz and country, tually listening before they condemn etc.) has both good and bad bands. some form of music.

Therefore, if you find yourself in the turn lane when you mean to go straight, it's a fairly bad idea to swerve into the other lane without regard for the driver already occupying it. Also, for my personal benefit, and that of the offenders: if the patrons personally feel it is hopelessly dated. I think Mr. Crowe has been in­ troduced to metal by some neighbor with his stereo juiced up to an ob­ noxious level who refuses to turn it down. I agree such conduct is rude, inconsiderate and downright im­ mature.

I have feelings that range between outrage and disappointment concerning the editorial entitled "Pope-on-a-Rope?" in The Appalachian, September 10. The editorial described the $22 million cost to the Catholic Church for the trip as excessive. That is simply not true. There are 53 million American Catholics. That means this trip is costing a sum of less than 42 cents each. Other than that, look at the benefits of the trip. The Pope is coming to address a divided Church. This trip will help to pull many Catholics back to re-examine their beliefs, whether or not they agree with the Vatican. "The Pope is only a man. He is not God..." your editorial read. The Catholic Church does not regard the Pope as God, nor exalt him as such. He is the leader of one of the largest denominations on earth. Therefore, he will draw a crowd while he is here in the United States. The $22 million spent will not only help insure his safety, but Ron Russell P.O. Box 14240 WHte: KJLTH EXCHANGE Plwblo.

"They are really good people. A lot of misconceptions have spread that really weren't true," he added. Participants came from several states including California, Ohio, Virginia, West Virginia and Georgia. Participant Robin Haden said she was pleased with the way the event turned out and that trouble is usually caused by outsiders. "Hell's Angels and Outlaws are not really attracted to events like this," Haden said. "They usually have their own events." "Harley riders are not what everybody thinks they are. The bikes we ride cost a lot and we have to have good jobs to afford them." she add­ ed. Haden, a graduate of North Carolina State University, majored in nuclear engineering and is currently working as a health physicist for the state. "It's an image people put in your minds," Vernon Royall of North Wilkesboro said. "People think we're a bunch of hoodlums and they're in­ sinuating that we go around breaking fences and killing their cattle. "That ain't right. People get all that stuff from watching too many movies. There are people out here that are doctors and lawyers and preachers," Royall said. Royall is a tractor-trailer driver by profession and owns a motorcycle worth over $18,000. The rally consisted of various con­ tests including a $25 trophy for ap­ pearance of the bikes, an egg toss and a "slow bike" race. The "slow bike" race consisted of five riders whose object was to race a 40-yard stretch of scattered pylons with the last person reaching the finish line as the winner. There was some rainfall at the rally, but the event still went on as planned with live bands that played from 6 to 9 p.m. Boone Police Chief Zane Tester said the event ran smoothly with no i serious problems. "People think we're a bunch of hoodlums and they're insinuating that we go around breaking fences and killing their cattle. — Vernon Royall "There really was no trouble at all," Tester said. "We had only 110 citations in a two-day period, 56 of which were alcohol-related, 26 DWIs and 2 concealed weapon citations." "Considering the number of police forces we had, this was expected," he added. Tester said there were 30 Boone police units and 20 Highway Patrol units on duty during the event. Club Presidents Council selected The 1987-88 ASU Club Presidents Coun­ cil was elected in a general session of all club presidents on September 2. The purpose of the Presidents Council is to represent the interests and concerns of all student organizations to the administration and to select the outstanding student organizations for the year. The Club Council was formed by the Stu­ dent Development Center three years ago to assist the administration in supporting recognized co-curricular organizations on campus. "We know that a lot of our organizations are frustrated in trying to carry out their programs because they have not had good leadership training from their previous of­ ficers and because there are some regula­ tions that must be followed to plan certain types of activities," Assistant Director of Student Development Dino DiBernardi said. "We look on the Presidents Council as a vehicle for organizations and student leaders to make their problems known to the administration so that they can better carry out their responsibilities," DiBernardi added. The Council will meet monthly to discuss leadership training programs and to review University policies that relate directly to student clubs. At the first meeting last week the Council set a tentative agenda for the year, in­ cluding plans for a spring semester leader­ ship retreat for all club officers, a survey of student groups to determine organizational needs and methods of improving com­ munication among and within all student groups. As a representative of all student clubs on campus, the Presidents Council hopes that student leaders will contact them with their organizational concerns. Among the projects to be considered this year are a series of seminars addressing such questions as how to keep members actively involved in the organization, planning and conducting fund-raising activities and effec­ tive methods of conducting organizational meetings. The members of the 1987-88 Club Presidents Council are Craig Butler, presi­ dent of Alpha Phi Omega service fraternity; Frank Callis, president of BACCHUS; Jim Edwards, president of ASU Ambassadors; Victoria Steward Edwards, president of Psi Chi honor society; William Keese, president of Sigma Nu fraternity; Jeannine Koo, president of Delta Zeta sorority; Wayne Leonard, president of the American Society of Personnel Administration; Bill Maycock, president of Pi Kappa Phi frater­ nity; Chris McGuire, president of the Geography Club; James McRacken, presi­ dent of the Campus-Wide Resident Student Association; and Michael Polk, president of Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity. Town Council considers changes for downtown By J. SHAVER Appalachian Slaff Writer Several groups, including the students of ASU, are par­ ticipating in projects to beautify the downtown area. One project planned is a continuation of last year's "Adopt a Street" program where a club would keep a street free of lit­ ter. , "We definitely want to see some student involvement," SGA President and Town Council member Cary Anne Wolf said. "We'H make sure the SGA is able to work with them in some way." Some King Street merchants are planning to work together to renovate their storefronts. "There is some talk about fixing up the front of the buildings, making them more attractive and perhaps more consistent," Professor of Sociology and Boone Mayor Dr. Larry Keeter said. Wolf praises the continued vitality of the main street area. "Boone's downtown area is good. In a lot of towns this size, the downtown's really nothing, and the shopping centers take over as places people go," she said. The motive behind the renovation is a sense of pride in our town's appearance but tourism is also a factor Wolf said. In an attempt to find a solution to the shortage of downtown parking, the town has set up a task force. "One of our major interests has been parking for downtown." Keeter See CHANGE Page 4 Downtown Boone may experience some renovation. Appofochion Photo by Koith Jonot Education spending increases 7% from last year WASHINGTON, D.C. (CPS)—The U.S. Department of Education has calculated that students, parents, state legislatures and the federal government will spend $124 billion on higher education this year, or $14,294 for each full-time student. does not justify the return. "The American people have made a tremendous financial commitment to education," Bennett said of the record $308 billion the nation will spend on all levels of education this year. "We know what makes for a good education. The generous invest­ ment is there. It's time we started getting a much better return on that investment." In its annual back-to-school forecast, the department, in recent years a severe critic of college spending, also noted this year's higher education costs represent a 7 percent Bennett's numbers, however, contradict jump since 1986-87. another report released last week by Secretary of Education William Bennett Research Associates of Washington, a argued that the expense of higher education private research group that studies higher public education. Research Associates Director Kent Halsteaa said it costs public colleges and universities only four percent more than last year to educate its students. Halstead said this increase was similar to that of many industries. Halstead complimented campus officials for keeping costs down while state and local governments allocated what he called a seriously declining share of their tax revenue budgets to public higher education. That share measured 8.1 percent in 1986-1987 compared to the recent peak of 9.2 percent in 1980-1981. Halstead said education costs per student doubled in the last nine years, from $2,554 in 1977-1978 to $5,035 in 1986-1987, while tuition during the 1986-1987 school year rose 4.4 percent, the lowest increase in tui­ tion revenues in a decade. Both the Education Department report and the Research Associates study state that college enrollments, despite a shrinking pool of 18-to-24-year-olds, have remained steady. �1 THE APPALACHIAN THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1987 Pictures of viaduct, importance to society By JIMMY GUIGNARD Appalachian Etc.

Those people miss the life radiating from the backside of Grandfather Mountain. - To drive along the parkway is like taking a sedative.

College campuses all over the coun­ try are experiencing a resurgence ot active volunteers, much of which is facilitated by on-campus volunteer bureaus. Until this year, ASU students seeking volunteer oppor­ tunities were on their own to random­ ly offer their services. Area agencies and programs seek­ ing student volunteers were on their own to solicit, through individual classes, notices and posters. Now, a project of the Social Work Program in the Department of Sociology and Social Work, will be matching volunteers with volunteer opportunities. Dr. John Turner, of the Social Work Program, secured an (ACTION) Grant to fund the project, after assessing area agencies' needs and interest in using student volunteers.

We all have the power to create our own futures, but sometimes it's easier to fall into ones which others, such as our parents, plan for us. Often, we compromise important personal values and needs because as Americans, the pressure to succeed dominates our lives. Sue had wanted to be a teacher since she was 10 years old. After she took her first methods class, she realized it wasn't everything she thought it would be. John's father and grandfather were partners in a law firm. His family assumed he would one day join the family practice. Surprisingly, he did poorly in pre-law courses and excelled in art and photography. Kristen wanted to make sure her college education was not a waste. She majored in business because it was a "good field" and she would make lots of money.

From the SGA President Boone has more to offer The other day a Senator approached me with the idea of pass­ ing a bill through Senate to forbid students from going home more than one weekend a month. He was joking (I think) but the more I thought on the idea, the more I liked it. The bill wouldn't stop there of course. It would also require RA's to check students' rooms on Friday nights and make sure they were enjoy­ ing themselves. On Saturdays all residence halls would be locked from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and students would be forced to spend the day exploring ASU and the Boone community. Maybe you think this is a somewhat drastic solution to a minor problem. I disagree. You see, for one reason or another, there are still some benighted souls at this wonderful institution who feel there is nothing to do at Appalachian, and therefore faithfully traverse homeward every Friday. I know you're probably asking yourself right now, "Can this be true? And if so, why did these people come here in the first place?" I ask myself that too. But rather than mock them in their ignorance, let us instead guide them to the light. There is activity in Boone. No, it's not a Winston Salem, or a Raleigh, or a Charlotte, but if that's what you want, then why are you here? Boone is wonderful enough on its own merits.

Do you really believe that you're aware of everything happening on campus dur­ ing any given week? Or even a given day? I know I'm not. But I do know where to find such information. I know that A.P.P.S. is at work on campus programming, and that because it is an organization com­ prised of students like myself, their tastes and ideas are probably similar to my own. A.P.P.S. brings a variety of movies to IG Greer, bands to H'Appy's and the Pub and other types of entertain­ ment all over campus. Check by the Student Union or post office next time you're passing through to see what's going on. ASU is also fortunate enough to be blessed with an outstanding theater department. Not only do students have the opportunity to view wellperformed and professional produc­ tions, university one-acts offer even the amateur thespian a chance to be in the spotlight. Feeling culturally ignorant? Look into the ASU Performing Arts and Lecture Series. These events, usually presented in Farthing Auditorium offer a student a chance to view Shakespeare plays and various world renowned artists and speakers at low cost.

We have a great team this year, but lest you forget, football is not the only sport here at ASU. This fall our soccer, field hockey and wrestling teams also need your support. Why not cheer them on too? Your voice will most definitely make a difference. The nine club sports are important too. ASU's club sport of the year last year was the rugby team. They are currently ranked fourth in the state. Want to see some real action? Check out a rugby match. A thrilling combination of soccer and football, this sport is not for the weak of heart.

It takes a little more than guts to do it if you know Appalachian State free safety Leonard Lee is out there somewhere. Lee, a senior out of Rockledge, Fla., is establishing himself as one of the fiercest hitters in the Southern Conference and he did nothing to tar­ nish that image on Saturday. On many occasions, Lee came up with the big hit that not only broke up he pass but made the fans cringe in •ear of the receiver's well-being. 'We had some things that we hought were open and he (Lee) omes out of nowhere and separates jeople from the ball," JMU coach (oe Purzycki said. Lee set the tempo early in Saturday's contest and the James Madison receiving corps wanted tothing to do with going over the niddle. I think he really changed their ;ame plan," ASU defensive backfield oach Everett Withers said. "He kept hem from trying to hit the middle of lie secondary. They tried early and elt like they weren't going to be sucessful so they went elsewhere." On the Duke's first possession, uarterback Eric Green had an aparent completion to halfback odney Stockett only to see Lee reak up the pass with a hit that ought a crescendo of "aahs" from le Conrad Stadium crowd. On James Madison's second >ssession Greg Medley headed right 1 a sweep. Lee came up with another t that separated Medley from the [ill and gave ASU its first turnover of e game. See LEE Page 6 If the fans happened to walk in five minutes late for Saturday's contest, then they missed the majority of the ballgame. Two touchdowns in the game's first five minutes propelled Appalachian State to a 17-10 victory over James Madison Saturday in Conrad Stadium. The Mountaineers had to hold off a late Duke charge. JMU scored their only touchdown with 3:16 remaining in the contest on an Eric Green oneyard quarterback sneak. That capped a 13-play, 84-yard drive. After the kickoff, the Moun­ taineers ran out the clock keyed by a Todd Payton to Wardell Jefferson pass on third and six. "Payton made what I thought was the play of the game," JMU Coach Joe Purzycki said. "He showed a great deal of poise. It didn't look spectacular to the fans, but he's a heck of a player." The Apps jumped on the Dukes early. On the Mountaineers' first play from scrimmage, Payton connected with Jefferson for a 55-yard gain to the JMU 21 yard line. Running back Tim Sanders covered the final 21 yards on two carries to put the Moun­ taineers ahead 7-0 one minute into the game. "We intended to throw the ball bet­ ter," ASU Coach Sparky Woods said. "On the opening play, the receiver has the option of down and out or going long. When the defensive back took away our cushion, Wardell is supposed to go long. We did a good job on the throw and catch. That got a fire going for us." After holding James Madison on three plays, the Mountaineers' Keith Collins partially blocked a John Druiett punt, setting up ASU at the Duke 35. It took the Apps five plays, all on the ground, to push it in. Ritchie Melchor had 25 of those yards, in­ cluding the one-yard score. The touchdown gave ASU a 14-0 cushion four and a half minutes into the con­ test. Mike Smith Hall of Famers inducted Saturday early surge to duke out JMU The Mountaineers completed their scoring with a 12-play drive that con­ sumed over six minutes of the second quarter and ended on a 29-yard Bjorn Nittmo field goal. Jefferson had two catches for 25 yards and fullback Doug Beaty caught one for 15 yards in the drive. Payton made a sucessful comeback from his inauspicious start a week ago at South Carolina. The Vietnameseborn quarterback completed half of his 18 attempts in the first half for 135 yards to do the bulk of the damage. The Apps were able to surpass last week's first downs, rushing and passing-yard figures in Saturday's first half. Woods was concerned about a second-half letdown with a 17-0 lead at intermission. Woods challenged his squad to come out and play the last half as they did the first half. Woods' concern proved to be war­ ranted as the Dukes dominated the second-half statistics. For the game, JMU outgained ASU 359-332. The Mountaineers moved for only 73 yards in the second half. "Payton made what I thought was the play of the game. He showed a great deal of poise. It didn *t look spectacular to the fans, but he's a heck of a player." —Joe Purzycki ^^JMUCoach "We lost a little intensity in the se­ cond half," Woods said. "I was a lit­ tle disappointed with that. James Madison came out more determined than we did. But we did things we had to do to win." "James Madison played with a lot of heart and determination and are a never-say-die football team. They will win a lot of games this year." The App defense, stellar in the first half, gave the Dukes a little more ground than Woods would have preferred, while the offense stalled. The Mountaineer defense was on the field for 17:43 of the second half. "The defense bent too much, but overall we held them better than I an­ ticipated," Woods said. "You have to give credit to James Madison for that. We made a lot of mistakes and we have a lot of improving to do." Appalachian Photo by Soon Moor* BEATY ON THE MOVE: ASU fullback Doug Bea­ ty (45) rambles for some of his 67 yards in SaturThe Apps secondary, thought at the season's outset to be a weakness, impressed Purzycki. Green was able to complete just eight of 22 passes for 107 yards. ASU safety Leonard Lee seemed to set the tone early with some bone-jarring hits. "We had receivers open," Purzycki said. "But Lee came from nowhere to separate our receivers from the ball. This is the toughest defense we'll line up against all year." Mountaineer linebacker Kenny Blacknell felt that Lee's early crunches had an impact on the re­ mainder of the game. "Leonard really intimidated their receivers a lot," the defensive leader said. "We came out more emotional for this game and were able to re­ arrange their offense." With the Dukes running out of the potent wing-T offense, ASU expected difficulties stopping JMU consistent­ ly. "We stopped their running inside," Blacknell said. "It's a difficult of­ fense to stop, but I'm pretty satisfied with our effort. We just have to go with our coaching."

Settle soaring high after making Falcons By MIKE SMITH Appalachian Sports Editor Very seldom does a life's dream reach its fruition. Last Tuesday, former ASU running back John Settle saw his dream become reality when he was named a member of this year's Atlanta Falcons.

The Apps defeated James Madison, 17-10, to even their record to 1-1. ASU second at WFU By KAREN GOSCH Appalachian Staff Writer ASU's men's and women's cross country teams endured a soggy course on Saturday at the Wake Forest In­ vitational, to place second and fourth, respectively. Men's coach Bob Pollock in­ structed the men's squad to disregard the wet conditions and make the best of it. They took his advice, Finishing runner-up to the homestanding Deacons in the fifteen team field. "We had a good opening meet and we improved from last year's score," Pollock said. Last year the men had 73 points. They were able to reduce that figure by 11 points. Freshman Dean Duncan led the Apps with a fifth place finish and a time of 25:07 in the 5000 meters. Pete Vandenburg, the sophomore captain, finished ninth with a time of 25:28. Craig Warren finished 11th, Scott Vance 18th, and Morris Piercy 19th. "The freshmen are doing a good job overall," Pollock said. "The attitude and unity among the team are really making us strong." The Apps trailed first-place Wake, Forest by 39 points. "The meet was really between ASU, and WFU," Pollock said. "Wake Forest ran very well together." Next, the men's team will attend a meet at Davidson on Sept. 19. The meet is held at the site of the Southern Conference Championships, which should allow the runners a chance to accustom themselves to that track. The women's cross country team placed fourth out of seven teams with a score of 86. Several of the opposing squads were unable to show up for the meet because of the poor conditions. As expected, Beth Ruggles and Karen Osada led the Lady Apps with sixth and seventh place finishes in the 3000 meter race. Ruggles finished in 18:32, while Osada came in 11 seconds later Vanessa Tyson trailed Osada by just i second for eighth place. "The season is still young and this is an outstanding group," women's coach John Weaver said. "I was very pleased with our top runners." "The women's squad will also com­ pete at Davidson next Saturday giving them the same opportunity as the men to get a headstart on the opposition for the Southern Conference Cham­ pionship. feam3"^' ' ' th°Ught 1 had p,ayed weI1' but 1 stiU wasn>t sure I had made the When Tuesday morning rolled around, the day of final cuts Settle was hon •ng h,S door a, ,he Falcon Inn in Sewanee, Ga„ "would not be knocked on for passed his door^ d°Wn °" h'm' ForlunaleIy.

Blankenship begins era By JEFFERY GRIZZLE Appalachian Staff Writer Appalachian State's new volleyball coach, Traci Blankenship, who took ovfcr the for the departed Toni Wyatt, is hoping to continue a tradition as respec­ table as the old one. Blankenship has implemented a new offense and defense to hopefully keep her Lady Apps one step ahead of the other Southern Conference teams that have gained ground. "We're not rebuilding, but starting to build a new tradition," Blankenship said. "We have implemented a new offense, defense, and service set. The reason for the change is the other teams in the conference have caught up wirti us. V\ estern Carolina is already in our skill level. Now we are going to have to out-smart them rather than out-play them to win." Blankenship has high goals for her young team. "Our goal is to win the conference," she said. I want to bring out the poten­ tial in the players and help expose it." -! Even with the loss of standouts Kristen Smith and Pam Huskey, Blankenship is still confident. "Kristen was a great player, but her absence will not hurt the team much," Blankenship said. There are always new players coming up with new ideas and abilities in each generation. Besides, Kim Warren and Kerri Carlton have done an excellent job of assuming her roles." Leadership could be a concern of Blankenship's because the Lady Apps have just two seniors compared with four freshmen. Sophomore Kris Zubay and senior Angela Haas have been selected as co-captains for the 1987 season "I expect all returning players to accept some of the leadership respon­ sibilities," Blankenship said. "There is an equal spread of leadership. The team has meshed together well as a unit." Intensity is of no concern for coach Blankenship considering that there is not .

Continued from Page 5 "I wouldn't say that they were in­ timidated," Lee said. "I think they had their eye on me and wanted to know where I was. In the latter part of the game they were reading me." Although Lee is most definitely an intimidating hitter, he doesn't feel that intimidation is part of his game. "It's not exactly intimidation," Lee said. "I just try to let them know that they can't take advantage of the middle of our secondary and that we're there to play." Lee piled up some impressive numbers Saturday as he finished the day with seven tackles and five assists. His powerful hitting also broke three passes and caused a James Madison fumble. Appalachian Photo by Soon Mooro LOOK OUT...OUCH: App defenders Leonard Lee (31) and Kenny Blacknell (46) move in on a JMU ball carrier. These two combined for 25 tackles and a lot of intimidation. Lee has posted some impressive career numbers as well at Ap­ palachian. The three-year letterman The sight of a receiver stretching out for a pass over the middle is a dream for players such as Lee and he says his knocks are mainly reaction. "You don't have time to think because it all happens so fast," Lee said. "I just try to get myself in a good position and go in for the kill." Playing free safety gives Lee some room to move around, thus giving him more chances for his bonecrushing exploits. This, he feels, is what makes him stand out from the other backs. "I wouldn't say that I'm any dif­ ferent," Lee said. "In my position, I have more opportunities and I just take advantage of most of them." "I'm not known for my intercep­ tions," Lee said. "So it's kind of my role to come up with the big hit." Deacons cruise past Appalachian State _ __ i_ _ y—« _ 11 A i from Catawba College, 4-1. "I certainly expected us to do better than we did," ASU Coach Art Rex said.

"The inner-team competition is good for the intensity of the club," g] ship said. While all positions are open, the starting lineup will probal have a set six players, considering how strong the bench is this year. The ASU women are expecting to display a lot of offense in the up season. "Setters Kris Zubay and Val Patterson have given a 105% effort ar improved tremendously," Blankenship said.

First, they must alleviate the jitters and assume some ship." Blankenship, who graduated from ASU two years ago, and is t| volleyball player to have her number retired, doesn't expect any prob arise concerning the small age difference between coach and players. "When I started, I knew I had to be stern and hard to earn their respe as an assistant coach last year. I think the players respect me and I don't trouble between us."

This could at We; tdvanta, e able :citingj ASU disabled need your help Appalachian State University Policy of Nondiscrimination Against Persons with Disabilities It is the policy of Appalachian State University that no qualified person may be discriminated against on the basis of her or his disability. Qualified applicants with disabilities are en­ couraged to seek admission to the University as students and qualified applicants with disabilities are actively recruited for employment. The university is maKing affirmative efforts to accommodate students and employees with disabilities. Consistent with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, accommodation of per­ sons with disabilities extends to student programs and employ­ ment practices, to the elimination of physical barriers and to the provision of necessary special assistance to students and employees with disabilities within the University. The above statement is the official policy for ASU disabled students. The Office of Student Services in the administration building is set up to accommodate disabled students and implement this policy. The "elimination of physical barriers," as stated within the policy Iseems to be an insurmountable problem, however. A 1984 study conducted on this campus showed that nearly every [building on campus needed renovation in order to be accessible by the landicapped. Ail programs and facilities had to be designed so people with lisabilities could access them. Of course, it would be too costly to enovate every building including all the residence halls. To help in solving this ongoing problem, Student Services is ecruiting the assistance of non-disabled students. They need /olunteers to help read textbooks to the blind, assist mobilitympaired persons in and out of difficult areas, and a variety of other jositions. Even if you don't get involved with the Student Service's programs, :ach student can help just by having a positive attitude toward disibled individuals. A lot of handicapped people on campus feel shut out of their en­ vironment, emotionally as well as physically. They feel that they are lot treated as equals among the campus community. Often, disabled itudents feel stared at or shunned by non-disabled students. 3d _ Other problems arise with bicyclists and skateboarders accidentally unning into the visually impaired who must walk the same paths very day. Students should have consideration towards those who are disabled, friendly and helpful attitude may be all it takes to alleviate problems f assistance for the handicapped. BLOOM COUNTY Bureaucracy bites biotech One of the inherent dangers in any semidemocratic society is that the majority might be (gasp!) wrong. And when they are, we all have to suffer. One issue which the average American knows absolutely nothing about (except that they fear it) is genetic engineering or biotechnology. A few years ago, anti-genetic engineering propa­ ganda abounded. Liberals and minorities feared that the ability to select one's offspring's genetic makeup would lead to another Aryan master race. Antibiotechnology activists are lobbying in Washington heavily now, claiming that scientists might accidentally create a dangerous mutant bacteria and unleash it on an unsuspecting environ­ ment. These fears are the stuff of science fiction, not science reality. What these ignorant fears have done, however, is all too real. Legislation to "protect" the public from engineered organisms often protects us from beneficial vaccines that could save lives. To gain approval to test an altered organism, a scientist must complete incredible volumes of paper­ work which must then be read and approved by several government agencies. The process often takes years. On August 12, 1987, Dr. Gary Strobel of Montana State University admitted that he had injected six elm trees in a university research grove with genetically altered bacteria hoping to treat Dutch elm disease. The results were very encouraging, but because he had not waited the years for approval from the Environmental Protection Agency, police came and had Strobel cut down the trees. The University, the EPA and Strobel's colleagues have all agreed with Strobel that the bacteria posed David Farthini no likely threat to the environment, nevertheless he was punished for not following procedure. We were all punished along with Strobel for we will all lose if another species of tree becomes extinct. The EPA is not the only government agency which constricts the use of possibly good technology and keeps it from reaching the public. The Food and Drug Administration has a history of standing in the way of new drugs that have been available to the public in European countries for years. Another example of over-regulating bureaucracy is currently tying up AL-721, a new "drug" that has relieved symptoms of AIDS. AL-721 is not actually a drug in the traditional sense. It is composed of lipids (fat), water and lecithin. Lecithin comes from eggs among other things and acts as a catalyst to allow oil and water to mix in the same way that eggs allow oil, lemon juice and vinegar to mix and form mayon­ naise. AL-721, though made of food substances, stopped the growth of the AIDS virus in test tubes and rats. ARC (AIDS related condition) patients improved while taking AL-721. When they stopped, all worsened, some even contracted AIDS. The research company that created AL-721 is cur­ rently attempting to gain approval for marketing it as a drug. The approval for new drugs takes the FDA years, so several rival companies are calling their versions of AL-721 "food supplements," which the FDA cannot currently regulate as heavily as substances called "drugs." They are asking Congress for legislation allowing them to regulate "medicinal foods." The main trouble with this situation is that as a medicine, AL-721 is unavailable to the public. As a food supplement, though, it is available, but no where on the package may its medicinal properties be printed. Thus, no one knows about a potentially life-saving substance. (Twin Lab is currently marketing an egg lecithin capsule, which is slightly different from AL-721 to avoid patent infringement.) In 1985, the EPA accidentally put Bacitracin on its hazardous substance list, making it illegal to store in large quantities in one place, such as a warehouse. Bacitracin is only a common antibiotic used to treat cuts and bruises (much like Bactine). The leading maker of Bacitracin, A.L. Laboratories of New Jersey, lost its case in a federal appeals court to have the EPA remove the substance from the list, even though the EPA admitted its mistake. EPA officials say that they are working on it, but add that it will be at least another month before a decision can be made through proper channels. It is becoming more apparent that our government is "protecting" us too much. The president's wife feels that she is personally responsible for every one of us to see that we don't smoke dope. Senator Albert Gore and his wife Tipper (sounds like he's married to a dolphin, doesn't it?) want to protect us from being hypnotized by the lyrics to satanic rock songs. Is it any wonder that the FDA and EPA want to protect us from a possible cure for AIDS? Listening and thinking simultaneously By SCOTT CROWE Appalachian Staff Writer Have you ever paid attention to what you are listening to? Most peo pie do not know what the music they are listening to actually says or means. This causes an "open door" policy for all types of influence. The words to many songs are so ridiculous they do not even come close to "See Spot Run." I see and hear people listening to music with words so distorted, it would make the Rosetta Stone look like a comic book. I am not saying that all music is this way, just some of it. The music I refer to is the kind that repeats the word "baby," or the like, 240 times with maybe a variance in the beat. Can you call that music? Apparently, all people get out of this is brain deformity or vocabulary impairment. In an attempt to make up for this loss of words, people crank up the music to ear-deafening proportions. This music is so loud that we have to listen whether we want to or not. Now that their brain is being joggled by the loud, rumbling vibrations, the words are noticeably affected. This is the only logical ex­ cuse I can see for the popularity of this music. It becomes clear as to who profits from this situation. The so called "heavy metal" groups are making a killing from their musical jibberish. Record companies, stores and show places are raking in money. With flocks of people buying this music, there is money to be made in every racket. Why would anyone buy what they don't understand? We need to return to the good days of rock and roll. The Beatles, Beach Boys, and Creedence Clearwater Revival, to name a few, were and still are the best type of music to enjoy and understand. In this type of music a person can truly experience the sound and the lyrics. If more people would listen to better music, I believe we could have a better society to live in. So the next time you get ready to crank the music up, turn up the brain and see if the music you listen to is worth hearing. Or is it just trash? A campus is a terrible thing to waste By JOE MELTON Appalachian Columnist Tuesday, September 15, 1987. This is the city. My name is Melton. I carry a pen. Greetings. I dare you to read this article with an open mind. To some of you, that may be a rather novel idea, but give it that ol' college try. There is an atrocity being perpetuated on this campus that has a relevancy to atrocities being perpetuated on the entire planet ("perpetuated" is my new word for the day— I hope you like it.) It is one by Berke Breathed that should concern us all as enlightened residents of this school and this civilization. A crucial environmental issue, a cultural issue. An issue that begins right here on our once fair campus. Can you guess what I am talking about? Again? Bingo! I am referring to the litter that STILL adorns the grounds of our school. A few weeks ago, I wrote a short letter asking people, not too diplomatically, admittedly, to clean up after themselves. Was that too much to ask? It would seem that no one was listening. The areas around Sanford Mall are still filthy for most of the day. I feel like a voice crying in the wilderness. You may be tired of hearing or reading about it. Tough. It needs to be said. There are still pigs, er, uh, students, numbering in the hundreds, who for one reason or another, are still disfiguring the campus with their refuse. It really infuriates me when certain ignorant, lazy, good-fornothing, wasted people do not listen to reason and continue to cast doubt on their heritage when they litter! It has been more than a week since my letter to the editor on the litter problem on campus. No change If anything, it seems to be spreading. There are some who share my con- cern, however. I just received a letter from a person who agreed with me, and offered some ideas for solutions. What struck me was that this person was not even a student! Folks, people in other cities know how trashy this campus is! According to the letter, the beauty of this school was a big draw. Not any more! Something has got to be done! No longer is this cancer, and that is exactly what it is, confined to Sanford Mall. It is all over the campus. How uncool I must be, you may say, as you loiter around with your mod, with-it, too-cool-for-school attitude, to care about what the cam­ pus looks like. Grow up! People, it is more than just a few candy wrappers. Just for a moment, listen, and think about what I am saying. This past Thursday, I was talking with a friend outside the Sweet Shop where, supposedly, some of the more environmentally conscious individuals on our campus hang out. Apparently, this is not so. Judging from the crushed paper cups, wadded up bags, cigarette butts, and other assorted detritus, they are people who are either hypocrites of the worst kind, or are just not thinking. I truly hope it is the latter. Even so, it worries me. The crowd around the cafeteria (they know who they are, and so does everyone else) are not the only ones responsible for the dilapidation. It seems that almost everywhere I go on campus, there is trash. You may think I am exaggerating, but take a look around you as you go to class. You will see what I mean. Now for the twenty-five cent ques­ tion: Why? Laziness? Possibly, but it is not unusual for trash to be left sitting on top of the trashcans. Anyone this lazy should be nearing the final stages of decomposition. Maliciousness? I don't think this is the cause, either. It is not just one person, and it is not just one area. This leaves us with one or both of two remaining reasons. One, people just don't care, which really scares me, or two, people think they are too ; good or too cool to pick up their trash, and expect someone else to do it. Where does it say that only peons pick up trash? It shows much more maturity and intelligence to pick up your trash. I have seen the student body president and a few others. * cleaning up after the children who"sit outside the cafeteria. I realize that there are a few students who care, qnd are making an attempt to clean np. But they are the minority. See LITTER Page 8 Happiness is an A parking sticker By TAMMY WALTER Appalachian Stall Writer Have you hugged your car lately? Or better yet, have you even seen it? I know you haven't seen the money you gave them to let you park it on campus. Is that big JJ parking lot in the sky even on campus? From where I live, that lot could just as well be a Lees McRae parking spot. Now, I know all of you privileged people who have A stickers don't understand the commotion I'm rais­ ing. Unless, however, you happen to be the lucky friend of an underclassman who always borrows you and your closely parked car to take them to visit theirs way up on Mt. Everest. We gave up our cherished twenty to twenty-five dollars to safely park our cars so that we may have accessible transportation when we need it. Now let us look at two key words in that sentence. Safe! Is it? We never see it since it's so far away. Someone could hit it or trash the paint job, lift the stereo or slash the tires. I might not know this has happened to my car for weeks! And I surely would never catch the person who did it. Accessble. As I've already griped away, it should be readily apparent that any car parked where mine is, is not easily gotten to. I've been allotted the very, very last parking lot on the top of the mountain behind Broyhill Education Center. There's not even a trail from that lot back down to campus. I'd like to advise the girls not to take any of those makeshift trails through the woods by themselves. It's dangerous enough trying to walk down them, much less having to worry about crazy men hiding behind the bushes. If I wanted to walk up that huge hill, I'd wear full mountain climbing gear. Thank goodness I've been lucky enough to connive A parked people into driving me up to see it once a month. Yes, my dreams of cruising the Boone strips (if I ever find any) have certainly been altered by those parking spaces. Don't you think it would be nice if they'd use that money to build a closer lot? If you waited in that long line to get that precious, beloved car sticker, you'd realize how much money they do have available to throw down a little asphalt and cement and label it New Parking Lot. But, until then, get your camera, hitch a ride up the hill, and take a picture of your cherished automobile. It may be the only time you get to look at it for a while! �\ THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDA Y, SEPTEMBER 15, 1987 Litter Continued from Page 7 Remember the infants who have wormed their way in that I spoke of in the editorial a few weeks ago? The ones who hang out around the cafeteria? They are the majority. They are the problem. Anyone who doesn't help by picking up any piece of trash is just as guilty as the ones who leave it behind. It would seem that our elders who tell us that we have it too good, that the younger generation is spoiled beyond rotten, are all too accurate in their assessment. Don't deny it, the evidence is at your feet! The reason is most likely a combination of not car­ ing and expecting someone else to do the dirty work. I wonder if any of you remember the commercials a few years ago that . •__ t • featured an American Indian coming out of a beautiful forest into a smoggy, trashy, foul, filthy city. When he saw that white people had not only stolen his land, but were in the process of poisoning it beyond remedy, he cried. If it would do any good, that is what I would do. Anger seems to do no good—the response to my last editorial is evidence of that. You may say I am being a bit melodramatic. You may say that a few empty paper cups and a fountain with detergent in it do not mean the end of civilization. My friend, you are WRONG! The habit of polluting our planet begins somewhere. It seems to be con­ tinuing right here on our campus. Those who leave cups around today will leave Dioxin around tomorrow. At this point, it is just a matter of our once beautiful campus becoming an above ground sewer. But we are going to be making decisions that affect our environment for years to come. If I were a child now, I would be horror-stricken by the cesspool that I was going to inherit. Most people enjoy the parkway, and one of ASU's biggest araws for students is the beautiful mountains. Imagine your favorite spot on the Parkway, or anywhere, covered with rubbish. Imagine your favorite lake or stream fouled with oil slicks and dead fish. Imagine gagging and choking when you go outside without an airtank. Imagine dying at age thirty because there is no ozone to protect you from the sun. Worst case scenarios? Possibly. But so was Bhopal, India. So was Love Canal. So was Chernobyl. It doesn't take much to clean up after yourself. Just a few seconds. If you see something that has been left behind, throw it away. If everyone would pick up just one thing, it would make a noticeable difference. It has to start somewhere. Let it start here, on this campus.

Immunizations required By MARTHA FLOWERS Appalachian Staff Writer All students who entered any North Carolina university fter July 1, 1986 are required to have a certain set of vacnations. Students can arrange the immunizations with the infirlary. "We sent out letters to 897 people. So far we've only ceived answers from $bout 20 percent," Director of [ealth Services, Dr. Evan Ashby said. Ashby stressed the need for students to return the letters oving they have been immunized or to contact the infirlary to make arrangements. "We don't actually give the vaccines here. There are few we could probably do, but the Health Department or your family doctor is the place to go," Ashby said. "It's not just freshmen who are affected by this. Any student who has entered the university after July 1, 1986 must be immunized whether he is transferring from out of state or is returning to college after being out for a while," Registrar Brooks McLeod said. "Students have thirty calendar days from the beginning of the term to notify the infirmary that they've been im­ munized. These people have been notified and if we haven't heard from them by September 16 they will be withdrawn from the university," McLeod said. REACH FOR THE TOP: Stu­ dents scale the rocks in Sanford Mall in search of out-of-class adventure. High temperatures have attracted several students in­ to the sun for relaxation. Depend­ ing on the weather this weekend, the Blue Ridge Parkway and the "real" mountains in that area should be a major scene of activi­ ty. The Parkway is 52 years old this Friday. Many festivities are planned in celebration of the completion of the Linn Cove Viaduct. Registrar revises repeat rule By NICOLE PARSONS Appalachian Staff Writer ASU is implementing a new course peat policy this semester. The policy contains four provisions it must be followed by students. First, only the initial attempt or st taking of a repeated course can exempted from grade-point comtation. Secondly, no more than five :h initial attempts can be exempted. Thirdly, students must specify to e Registrar's office which repeated urses are to be exempted. The selecin of a repeated course for exemp>n, once made, cannot be changed. "The old policy was unlimited. Students could keep taking a course over and finally the last attempt would be computed," Registrar A.B. McLeod said. "So the point of this policy is to limit the repeat rule," he added. "As to whether or not the new policy is better than the old one is a matter of opinion and judgment by the in­ dividual." "In my opinion, either policy is fair as students are treated equally," he said.

Board of Trustees discusses fee increases By MATT HAWKINS Appalachian News Editor and By TRENT HUFFMAN Assistant News Editor crease in athletic fees to $97 and a $3 increase in the activity fee. "Students are wanting more com­ fort and convenience such as variety in meals which causes an increase in fees," Davis said. "Despite the increases, ASU has the fourth lowest fee structure in the UNC system and book rental fees here are the lowest of any other in­ stitution," he added. "I think most of them are minimal increases. When looking at the hous­ ing increase, I have problems with that," SGA President and Board member Cary Anne Wolf said. "If it costs $1,100 to live on campus it would be cheaper for a student to live off campus and have their own room and bathroom." Fees for a particular academic year ASU students could expect a con­ siderable increase in academic fees for the 1988-89 school year. The ASU Board of Trustees met last Friday to discuss various items of business including fee increases, new buildings, renovation and academic affairs.

The Business Affairs Committee also discussed the renovation of the current Bavarian Inn facility as well as the construction of a new food ser­ vices facility to serve the west campus. A program for expansion of the facilities has been under consideration for the past four years and the state Legislature has authorized a selfliquidating project for this purpose. The proposed location for the new west campus facility will be the Rivers Street area. Other renovations include a $300,000 appropriation toward the enhancing of Varsity Gym, a $2.5 million expansion of the Broyhill Inn and Conference Center and the erec­ tion of a $10 million, 123,000 square foot business school complex. In other business, Student Affairs Committee Chairperson Mary Kay Ollis reported thpt over 4,000 students have already used the new Quinn Recreational Center since its opening on August 31. Ollis also mentioned a need for more responsibility within the Greek organizations. "The groups (fraternities and sororities) need to have a plan to have better supervision for summer pro­ grams and show more responsibility by having closed functions," Ollis said.

Student senate holds first meeting of semester problem since it seems to be a major problem this year. I'd also like to look at the registration process," Student Affairs Chairperson Chris Miller said. The Off-Campus Affairs Committee is a new committee implemented by the Wolf-Beeker ticket. "Our committee will help students who live off campus be made aware of oncampus events," Off-Campus Affairs Chairperson Gary Greene said. "I've already done one newsletter for off-campus students. Even though we have off-campus senators we don't have nearly as much input from off-campus students as we have from on-campus students. Hopefully this committee will alleviate this," he said. "We'd like to see a lot of legislation get through this year. That's what senate is all about," Rules Committee Chairperson Gram Spear said. Legislative Assistant Jeff Merritt said the SGA was still working on raising money for ASU's Spirit Bell. SGA is required to raise $3,600 for the new bell.

The idea was originally a joint ef­ fort by Student Affairs and the SGA. The SGA has set a goal to raise $3600, while the alumni will cover the re­ maining cost. With $1200 already raised from unused budgets, the other funds will be gathered from the Saturday Night Live dance at H'Appy's after football games. "We're going to try a radiothon the Thursday before Homecoming when enthusiasm will be high," Merritt said. "A 24 hour radiothon will challenge clubs, sororities and frater­ nities to pledge money to request songs played. They will also receive credit for their pledge over the radio." "We will be giving away albums, t-shirts, and other items that weekend," Merritt added. The SGA will be setting up a con­ tact table throughout the month near the cafeteria to gather funds. The highest donor will receive a plaque embossed with their name or club on the Bell Tower. "We think this will put us over the goal. I think it's going to be something the university will be proud of for years," Merritt said. For more information, contact Jeff Merritt at 262-2240. By TRENT HUFFMAN Assistant .News Editor Democratic representative to the State House of Representatives from Watauga County, Judy Hunt, spoke at the first meeting of the ASU Young Democrats last Thursday night. Hunt stressed involvement in the elections coming up later in the year. "One thing that we can all do is to find out about the candidates and vote. Another thing that everyone can do to help is to get active in their political party or for a particular can­ didate." she said. Hunt also spoke about the recent General Assembly session where she served on the finance and higher education committees. "There were quite a few significant advancements in education," Hunt said. "I think the presence of two Watauga County representatives on the higher education committee benefitted the area and the university in securing funds for a new business building and planning funds for the gym," she added. The General Assembly ap­ propriated funds for the construction of a new College of Business on the ASU campus as well as funds to im­ prove the Varsity Gym. Hunt also said the state legislature passed several pieces of legislation focused on keeping families together. "One of the most important things in working for the families is economic development," Hunt said. "I want to continue to help in the economic development of this area. When families have paychecks they can take care of their children better and take care of their aging parents." Hunt said the economic outlook for •he state was good. "I didn't hear any signs of foreboding economic status. Given our natural resources and our people, I think we have a lot going for us," she said.

On his multi-city tour, the Catholic leader will drop by the University of South Carolina at Columbia, the University of New Orleans, Xavier University and Arizona State Univer­ sity, in some cases for only a few hours. To students at the four campuses, the papal visit will mean canceled classes, changes in parking ar­ rangements, new construction and, in one instance, eviction from dorm rooms. To administrators, the visit means a lot of meetings and extra expenses. Bill Racek of the University of New Orleans said UNO has spent about $100,000 on landscaping. Xavier spokesman Richard Tucker said their university has been cleaning up, sand­ blasting buildings and doing some landscaping. John Paul II will be at South Carolina for about five hours where he'll make two addresses and meet privately with non-Catholic religious leaders. USC, city, state and archdiocesean officials started planning for the fivehour visit six months ago. "The objective is to let the largest possible number of people see the Pope without causing major gridlock in all of South Carolina,'* USC news writer Ann Hill said. On September 10, students who live in dorms near the site of John Paul IPs first campus speech will have to leave their rooms for two days. On the morning of the visit, the Secret Service will patrol nearby buildings and seal them until he leaves. "The students and everyone on campus are excited and looking for­ ward to the visit," Hill added. Racek said the University of New Orleans, where the Pope will visit September 12, will cancel classes and close its offices and library in an­ ticipation of an influx of some 30,000 visitors. After the Pope and the visitors leave, UNO will maintain a $500,000 altar the archdiocese is building for the occasion. "The university will have to decide what to do with it," Racek said. The structure encloses showers and park­ ing for the "Popemobile," the pon­ tiff's special limousine. Racek said it's possible the altar may become a dressing area for athletiecvents. Racek also said it will take about a week to restore the grounds. A few students will be among the 4,500 people who will hear John Paul II speak at Xavier, but most of the au­ dience will consist of members of the National Catholic Education Associa­ tion and the Association of Catholic Colleges and Universities. Both groups have criticized the Vatican in recent years for its pro­ posals to bring Catholic campus courses under Church control "Our only regret is that so few Xavier people will be able to attend, but we are not in control of the invita­ tions," Tucker said. "Xavier is only serving as a host. If more tickets become available, more Xavier people will be able to be there." The Pope's last campus appearance will be at Arizona State, where he will celebrate Mass in Sun Devil Stadium on Monday, September 14. Arizona State spokesman George Cathcard said classes will be cancelled on the 14th, but has not declared a campus holiday. Classes will be rescheduled for a reading day later in the semester. Arizona State will en­ courage students, staff and ad­ ministrators to take the day off or leave campus as early as possible on the 14th. The Secret Service also asked the school to close some parking areas near the stadium Elections Continued from Page 1 Off-campus senators are George Arms, Lisa Marie Anthony, Jeff Behmer, Rick Border, Kent Bridges, Laurence L. Capps, Chris Craven, Jeff Crum, Jennifer DiNunzio, Wyatt Dixon and Jeff Chapman. "I think it's going to be a good year. I expect to see the same quality legislature come out of the Senate next year," Chapman said. Also elected to represent offcampus students are Molly Elmore, Brian Foster, Steven Frye, Brenda Griffin, Jennifer Hines, Bill Hull, Todd Isaacson, Cam Jordan, Walter Mallonee, Tom McBrayer, Joe Melton and Susan Phillips. Jeff Merritt, Cam Mills, Dell Mur­ phy, Joe Panzer and Scott Post are also senators representing off-campus constituencies. "I'm excited about be­ ing elected. This is my first year on the Senate. I hope to get a lot of legislative action done that will help groups and individual musicians find a place to practice on campus. I think there's going to be a big focus on offcampus students this year," Post said. Other senators from off-campus are Rusty Parker, Jennifer Pendleton, Yates Pharr, Laura Prevatte, Tommy Riggins, Mike Rutherford, David Ses­ sions, David Todd, Laura Tugman, J.C. Vargas, Scott Watson and Ruth Ann Hamilton. "I'm excited about the brand new opportunity. I hope to be a great assett to the senate and I hope to get the off-campus committee off the ground," Hamilton said. there is tefor expep^nce. Continued from Page 1 "The SGA has never had to raise that much money before," Merritt said. Merrit said SGA had already raised $1,200 and hoped to have the rest of the funds collected by Halloween. "That's an ambitious goal because raising money is not quite as easy as it sounds, but I have no fear that we'll raise that money way before Halloween," Merrit said. In other action, the senate opened nominations for the freshmen, junior and senior justice positions on the student court. Any student interested in applying for a position should contact Spear in Workman Hall by tomorrow. Nomina­ tions will close tomorrow at 12 noon. The senate also opened nominations for the University Court of Appeals for two weeks. The Court of Appeals handles all appeals from the student judiciary. Students interested in applying should contact Spear in Workman Hall before nominations close. Nominations for Collegiate Who's Who were also opened indefinitely. The SGA is responsible for nominating 44 persons who have at least 75 semester hours and a cumulative 2.5 GPA. Students interested in nominating someone or who wish to nominate themselves should contact Beeker in Workman Hall.

Shaver Playing social games Moore teaches art of debate By MARY GATES Appalachian Staff Writer Meg Andrews, a sophomore major­ ing in public relations, suggests another incentive to speak. "In forensics, you can't lose; with every speech you make, you're building your self-image and selfconfidence," Andrews said. Andrews has been active in foren­ sics since her freshman year in high school and shines in impromptu speaking. In the impromptu event, speakers are given a quote, object, cartoon, etc. and then have seven minutes to prepare and present their speech. Among other things, Andrews has been handed an orange, A Doonesbury cartoon, a stick of Arid Extra Dry and a Trivial Pursuit Box with fake money in it. With these items as her sole inspiration, Andrews comes up with speeches of tourna­ ment caliber. "Impromptu speaking is the most challenging of the individual events, if you can excel in impromptu, you can do anything!" Andrew concluded. What kind of student gets involved with forensics? ' "Someone intelligent and able to think on his/her feet." Dr. Moore said, "Forensics requires some acting and public speaking competence and a little bit of craziness for all the work they put into it." Dr. Terry Cole, assistant of foren­ sics, is also president of Pi Kappa Delta, the honorary speech fraternity at ASU. Over 200 colleges and univer­ sities are members of Pi Kappa Delta. This year the speech fraternity has 15 active members involved in hosting other schools. In its forty-seventh year, the ASU Forensics Club hosts one of the oldest continuing forensics tournaments in the south. New members are always welcome.

She's really determined to help students succeed in college. • Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) teaches essential leadership skills that can be applied towards anything, Dr. Richard Parrott, Continuing Education Assistant Dean, said. Parrott was one of the original instructors in ASU's ROTC program. "Back in 1969, I originally came here with the First group when the program was set up. I taught over there for three years. I was a captain in the army at that time. That's how I found Boone," he said. "There was a lot of initial work to do when the program started, basical­ ly getting the unit set up," he said, "it's different than coming into a unit that's been on campus for a while. It was an opportune time and a good assignment; I enjoyed it." Parrott's military career might be attributed in part to his growing up in a military family. He is a product of ROTC in college, and received his commission upon graudation. Parrott entered active duty, and served a tour of duty in Vietnam, where he worked in military intelligence. After a tour as company com­ mander in Texas, Parrott came to Appalachian with ROTC. "I never thought in 1969 when 1 came here that I'd still be here in 1987," Parrott said. Parrott served as Appalachian's advance camp representative this summer. "Between the junior and senior year, cadets in the ROTC program go down for six weeks of training at Fort Bragg. They get to utilize the leader­ ship skills they learned on campus in the ROTC program. Each institution sends an observer down during the summer and are hosted by the army so they can observe what cadets are doing," he said, "I was very impressed with the quality of the cadets this summer." Parrott said ROTC hasn't really change^ much over the years. "J think the primary objective is still the same. It's leadership training tor the people who are going to be the junior officers." He said, "in those respects the program hasn't changed all that much." Leadership is the main thing ROTC is designed to teach. "I think the leadership training you get in ROTC prepares you for any career you care to go into." Parrott said, "it's a pretty formidable job, I stM PAliRnrt Hmm. • �THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDA Y, SEPTEMBER 10, 1987 JLD is excellent experience By MARY K. MILLER Appalaihian Staff Writer Do college expenses have you su-.raining fot Financial relief? Solu­ tions to consider are call your parents (collect) for money, hock that new VC R you got this summer or get a job. The best solution, of course, seems to be what your parents have been telling you for years—get a job. That might seem like an impossible addi­ tion to your already busy class/party schedule. However, with the help of the people at ASU's Job Location and Development Office (JLD), you are likely to find a job that will not only tit in your schedule, but provide some good work experience as well. JLD is a part-time job service for ASU students that lists employment opportunities on campus, in Boone, and the surrounding areas. The pro­ gram is funded by the federal govern­ ment, as well as the university, and is free to any ASU student enrolled in at least one class. Employers contact the Office to list positions which they have available, and all listings are constant­ ly updated. JLD began five years ago as the brainchild of Director of Career Plan­ ning and Placement, Dr. David Ball. With the support of Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs, Dr. David Mclntire, Ball proposed JLD as a way to fill the gap left by cuts in work-study and financial aid. JLD is a part-time job ser­ vice for ASU students that lisis employment oppor­ tunities on campus, in Boone and the surrounding areas. "The service has been a real suc­ cess," Coordinator of JLD Debbie Thomas said. "During the 86-87 Fiscal year, JLD offered over 1600 jobs and made over 900 student placements, which is a 10 percent increase from last year. Student earnings from those jobs totalled over $550,000, a 32 per­ cent increase from last year." What are you in college for anyway? To get an education so you can get a REAL job. Ball believes • part-time jobs while in school enhance one's employability upon graduation. "Students who have worked their way through school are MOST attrac­ tive to employers. If a student has an internship, it's even better," he said. JLD currently lists approximately 100 different jobs in and around the Boone area. Positions are varied—everything from farm work to sales and clerical positions. In­ dividual job notices providing general information about each job are posted on a bulletin board across the hall from JLD in Room 228 of I.G. Greer Hall. Students can ask Debbie Ihomas or one of the counselors in the office for more specific informa tion about the jobs. Anachronism Society jousts Boone into time waif By LISA Z A LEON Appalachian Staff Writer How many times have you passed ASU students engaged in armored combat on the field beside the duck pond?

Bowie rocks Smith Center By MIKE GROBLESKI Appalachian Staff Writer One of this year's largest outdoor concert attractions went indoors this past weekend, and it was my pleasure to be there. I am referring to David Bowie's Glass Spider Tour. Bowie is famous for his highly visual and energetic performances. Bowie's vocals, with a little help from lead guitarist Peter Frampton, rocked the Dean Smith Activities Center in the majestic fashion and intense volume that rock and rollers demand. Smith Center crowds seem to run on the conservative side, but Bowie turned them loose as well as any per­ former. Songs such as, "Young Americans," "Fame," "Heroes" and the highlight of the show, "Rebel Rebel," brought the crowd to its feet for much of the 135 minutes of music. Disappointingly enough, the per­ formance did not include hits like, "Golden Years," "Space Oddity" and the all time great "Changes." Visually the show had many pluses and minuses. The entire stage was covered by the legs and body of a huge spider suspended about thirty feet in the air. The igloo shaped spider body was illuminated from inside and changed colors like a chameleon. Two Bowie's vocals, with a little help from lead guitarist Peter Frampton, rocked the Dean Smith Activities Center in the majestic fashion and in­ tense volume that rock and rollers demand. glowing antennae protruded from the spider's head along with large glowing oval eyes. The spider's hollow, flexi­ ble plastic legs were riddled with lights on their interior, making them multi or solid colored with the music, truly a sight to behold. Bowie was accompanied by a group of five dancers, that did as much harm as good to a fantastic visual show. They ran around, tumbled, laid down on stage and just seemed to make a general nuisance of themselves. They looked like ballet dancers in a Mad Max time frame as they hurled themselves to and fro on the stage and scaffolding. During one of their routines, several of them thrashed around the stage, while one stood on the scaffolding swinging a baseball bat, utterly ridiculous. Despite these menacing people, Bowie's Glass Spider Tour will prob­ ably be one of the best shows of the decade. Seeing David Bowie lowered out of the belly of a giant spider is a sight not to be forgotten. Bowie's showmanship even made up for his lack of old material, as he played almost exclusively from this decade's works. Without a doubt, this rock legend who always sounds cool but makes you want to freak, is doing some of his best work. Dawn Williams, Boone's local leader, describes the society as a nonchauvinistic and different experience. She said the recreation of time is car­ ried through in great detail, including dress, food, language and the hierar­ chy of the time.

You may be thinking about choosing one of the newer carriers over AT&T in order to save money. Think again. Since January 1987, AT&T's rates have dropped more than 15% for direct-dialed out-ofstate calls. So they're lower than you probably realize. For infor­ mation on specific rates, you can call us at 1 800 222-0300. And AT&T offers clear long distance connections, operator assistance, 24-hour customer service, and immediate credit for wrong numbers. Plus, you can use AT&T to call from anywhere to anywhere, all over the United States and to over 250 countries. You might be surprised at how good a value AT&T really is.

HILBISH Appalachian Staff Writer Boone has more eating establishments per capita than anywhere else in North Carolina. Every town has its share of fast food places like Hardee's and Wen­ dy's and, of course, there are the steak houses and pizza parlors. I en­ joy these places but don't consider them "restaurants". They're just for stuffing your face. When I go "out to eat" I prefer a place with some character, a place with good food, de­ cent service and where I don't have to listen to orders piped through a loud speaker or deep frier alarms going off, six at the same time. Restaurants can't be too expensive either. I enjoy fine establishments but my college budget doesn't allow me to frequent these places. In some cases this might propose a problem but, fortunately, the Klon­ dike Cafe is up to par. The Klondike Cafe is located directly across from the ASU baseball field on Blowing Rock Road. The Klondike is close to campus and within walking distance. The Klon- m brellas. Inside, a person can sit at the bar or, if privacy is desired, sit in the dining room.

Parrott also stresses the value of a good background in the liberal arts. "1 think the work that students are getting in the ROTC is extremely important to what they're going to do, but all the other departments on this campus have a role to play, too," he said. Citizenship is the basis of the ROTC concept, according to Parrott. "It's still the citizen-soldier con­ cept," he said. Besides serving as advance camp representative this summer, Parrott is involved with ROTC in other ways. "Of course I'm always interested in the kinds of things they're doing, and the caliber of student they're getting, which I think is very high. I've worked with them as members of the scholarship selection boards, which makes me feel good about the kind of students that are coming to Appalachian State," he said. Parrott said he feels good about the future here at ASU. "Appalachian is a good institu­ tion," he adds, "there's always a positive attitude here.

Afront of the dr ipllil iMMi students on campus, the majority of them attended class only part time. Students often juggled work and families in order to continue their educations. Many students dropped out as a result of so many obligations outside of school, and in Retention Services, Ehasz-Sanz worked with students to prevent that. Students who continually drop in and out of college, Ehasz-Sanz said, lose their excitement for learning and often lose sight of their educational goals. Rather than emphasizing student retention, at ASU she will use her counseling skills to help students explore their interests and select careers that mesh with those interests. Although her responsibilities have changed with her new position at ASU, Ehasz-Sanz's concern for students radiates. "I am committed to helping students 'make it' and succeed in col­ lege," she said. Ehasz-Sanz presently teaches a class titled "The College Experience," targeted at undecided freshmen. "The purpose of the class is to help students learn about themselves and others," she adds. Helping first-time students adjust to college life is the objective of the class. Ehasz-Sanz is in touch with the rarper celertirm nrohlems of todav's college students. She realizes school work can definitely be inhibited by a lack of direction. Part of her philosophy is that career indecision can be dealt with. More importantly, Ehasz-Sanz believes that career plan­ ning should begin early in life, and part of that planning includes looking at the kind of life you want to lead in the future. To save a lot of unhappiness and a possible mid-life crisis," identifying a suitable lifestyle is more important than choosing a field with the highest paying jobs. It's also important to choose careers, Ehasz-Sanz said, that fit your personality. Careers can be as dynamic as your personality which few students are aware of. Knowing yourself makes you happy, what mo, you and what doesn't is the point for all career exploration Ehasz-Sanz counsels stll(ti in d i v i d u a l l y i n h e r o f f i c e in i q q Of special interest to female students might be her researT women's career development For those students who need and suggestions for careers in oJ, watch for "Career Corner" J Appalachian, which will run two weeks.

Whenever a heavy underdog such is ASU plays a potential top-20 club n South Carolina, the former had tetter take advantage of every opporunity. Saturday night, the Apps did exactr the contrary of that by driving ithin the shadow of the Gamecock oal line three times only to come way empty handed. 1 was disappointed that we had ie opportunities and didn't take Wantage of them," ASU Coach arky Woods said. "We had the ball side the five (yard line) three times id didn't get anything. We've got to jrk on our offensive execution." Following an 11-yard shanked punt USC's Daren Parker with 9:27 left the half, the Apps, down 7-3, faced golden chance to regain the lead. Taking over at the Cock 48, ASU oved to a first-and-goal at the eight hind Tim Sanders' running. Four jys, including an unsuccessful Todd lyton quarterback sneak from the e, produced no points. "On the (QB) sneak, I thought we re closer than the one," Woods id. "I tried to get a measurement, t I couldn't get any help from the s.

Ellis had an All-America night breaking his own single-game comple­ tion record while going 30-44 for 329 yards. "Todd Ellis is an excellent ball player and he played an excellent 60 minutes," ASU Coach Sparky Woods said. The Gamecocks took control of a tight game in the third quarter with an impressive 86-yard, 15-play drive to open the second half. "We told our players at halftime that the first five minutes of the third quarter would be the biggest part of the game," Woods said. "They did an excellent job moving the ball dur­ ing that time and that worried me a little about our defense. That is the only time our defense didn't play well." With Carolina leading 10-3, the Gamecocks received the kickoff and began the third quarter from their own 14. Tailback Harold Green started the drive with an 11-yard jaunt off the right side, then culminated it six and a half minutes later with a one-yard burst for the touchdown. "The holes really opened up well tonight," Green said. "I just kept my head up and ran real hard. We knew we could play well tonight and we did." Ellis and Green accounted for 70 of the 86 yards in the game breaking drive. Ellis was four-for-five passing while Green picked up 33 yards on seven carries. Down 17-3, the Mountaineers had plenty of chances to get back in the ballgame. The first one came with 4:05 re­ Berry Epley maining in the third quarter when ASU freshman linebacker Johnny Jennings recovered a South Carolina bobbled snap on the Gamecock 32. The Mountaineers were unable to pick up a first down and when Bjorn Nittmo missed a 45-yard field goal wide left, one opportunity was down the drain. The Apps got another break when linebacker Orlester Glanton in­ tercepted an Ellis pass on the ASU 44. Facing third and four on the ASU 47, Payton tried to go deep and was "It was a good way to start the season. I thought our defense played particularly well, especially on some of those goal line stands." —Joe Morrison intercepted by Gamecock free safety Brad Edwards who returned it to the use 35. From there, the Gamecocks ended all doubt with a drive that covered the 65 yards in just two and a half minutes. Green finished the drive with his third touchdown of the night to put the Gamecocks up, 24-3. Green finished the night with 78 yards and three touchdowns on 22 carries. "When you have a back like Harold Green, you want to try to get him the ball as often as possible," South Carolina Coach Joe Morrison said. The Mountaineers still had one more threat left in them as Mark Moore picked off an Ellis pass, which was deflected by David Freeland, and returned it to the USC 33. The Apps drove the ball to the one yard line where, on fourth down, Payton fumbled the snap from center and the Gamecocks had held again. "I was proud of our team's effort." Woods said.

Most quarterbacks are injured when they are either Isided or when they leave the pocket to run. If a quarterback is given a pshot, the NFL already has a penalty for that called a personal foul, st imagine how many times we saw guys like Fran Tarkenton, Roger 3ach and Kenny Stabler escape the grasp of a defensive lineman and end rowing a touchdown pass. Those plays became highlight clips; today they mply sacks. lat was Rozelle thinking about when he implemented the instant replay? otball is a human game, played by people and officiated by people, not meras.

Explain that to Popularity of sports in America is evident in the media coverage given ents. If these games are so popular, then why are some of these rule ' vv 1,ch go against the fundamentals of each game, made? that is a pretty valid question. The Appalachian State Mountaineers are anticipating that a return to the friendly confines of Conrad Stadium will be just what the doctor ordered as they hope to rebound from last week's disappointed showing at South Carolina. The Apps have been awesome at home over the last two years, losing only to Nichols State in last year's I-AA play-off contest. Last year the Apps pulled out a 21-20 victory over the Dukes on a last second field goal by place-kicker Bjorn Nittmo. Head Coach Sparky Woods expects more of the same on Saturday afternoon. "They are a pre-season top 20 team that returns the nucleus of their players," Woods said. "They are a big, strong squad." Offensively the Dukes employ the Wing T, which, like the run and shoot of South Carolina, is very potent. "It's very dangerous," said App Defensive Coordinator Rick Whitt. "It's hard to prepare for in a week, expecially against their personnel." Running the show for JMU will be quarterback Eric Green. Green, a 6-1, 181 senior, is experienced in running the Wing T. "He is the most improved player on their team," Woods said. "He is a dangerous runner or passer, who must be contained." Although the Dukes lost running back Warren Marshall to the NFL, they have capable replacements in Tony Graddy, Greg Medley and Rodnev Stockett. Their backs are good, ' Woods said. "They are hard-nosed runners with excellent speed." When Green puts the ball in the air he will be looking to find tight end Neal Wilkinson. Wilkinson, an Ail-American candidate, is a big target at 6-5, 240, with ade­ quate speed. The Apps will counter with the same defense that started against South Carolina last week. They will also welcome the return of three defensive stand­ outs in defensive linemen Chris Connor and Anthony Waters along with out­ side linebacker Mickey Ray. Defensively the Dukes are the exact opposite of South Carolina. The Gamecocks used a blitzing, intimidating defense to limit the Apps to a mere eight first downs. The Dukes hope to do the same, but they will play a base defense and use technique. The defensive front is solid with Jim Eckenrode and Steve Bates playing tackles and Greg Calvin handling the Nose. The three average 6-4, 260. "They are studs," Wilkins said. "They are physical technicians and they stood us up last year." Linebackers Albert Williams, Don Kobosko and Marty Fitzgerald form an impressive trio that is stubborn against the run. Their linebackers are very physical," Woods said. "They will try to line up and whip you." The secondary is young but talented with Lamont Breedlove and John Guther manning the corners and Eupton Jackson roaming at free safety. The Mountaineers offense didn't play well last week, getting stopped three times inside the five yard line and Woods has a reason to be concerned. "We must execute better on offense and get the ball in the end zone," Woods said. "We must be more aggressive in all phases: throwing, running, DUKES INVADE CONRAD: James Madison quarterback Eric Green blocking and catching." leads the Dukes into battle this weekend at Appalachian State.

By SABRINA SELLS Appalachian Staff Writer "Even though I played a good game Saturday, I made mistakes, too. There were a lot of missed tackles." At 6-0, 230, David Freeland is not your typical bruising defensive lineman. But Saturday night, he was indeed bruising as he continually wreaked havoc in South Carolina's backfield. For his efforts, Freeland has been chosen The Appalachian's Athlete of the Week. While the 24-3 score was tough to take, the Mountaineers do expect positive things for the future. "It's hard to accept that we lost, but the game started the fire burning to play tough in the next 10 games and set our sights on a national champion- The Tallahassee, Fla., senior, not usually called on for such heroics, was one of the few bright spots for the Apps last week as they fell to South Carolina, 24-3. Apparently, the Southern Conference was in agree­ ment as they tabbed him the defensive player of the week for his 10 tackles, two tackles-for-loss, one fumble caus­ ed, one fumble recovery and three quarterback pressures. One thing is certain, preseason AilAmerican QB Todd Ellis of USC will not soon forget Freeland. His struggle for success on the gridiron has not always been an easy one. While he joined the Mountaineer squad in 1984 as a freshman defensive lineman and remained there as a sophomore, he was switched to center on the offensive line as a junior last year. Many players would have resigned themselves to playing center, but Freeland admitted missing the stop-side of the ball. "I missed my defensive line posi­ tion and the contact on that side of the ball, so playing offense has enhanced my performance," Freeland said. "Then, 1 was told I was moving back to the defensive line for my senior year and that really got me fired up." In addition to being switched from one position to another, injuries early in his college career slowed his pro­ gress. After coming on strong in the first game his sophomore year, he dislocated his kneecap in practice before the second game. "The injury really affected me mentally," he said. "I had to work twice as hard to get back to where I was before the injury." His desire to improve has not slow- With the implementation of the new student ID checker come the precautions felt by those responsible for the decision. Ticket manager Bob Thomas has been pleased thus far with the ID checker. It has been in use for the Ap­ palachian State soccer games, but its first true test comes Saturday when the Apps play their season opener against James Madison. Thomas is concerned with the ASU students' tendency to show up right at game time. This creates a bottleneck at the gates. Such a bottleneck with the slower ID checker could take quite a while to thin out. Therefore, Thomas en­ courages students to come to the games early so that this congestion will not be a problem. Another worry of Thomas' is that some student's ID's will not be validated. In some cases, off-campus students do not feel the need to validate their ID. If this is the case this year, they will not be permitted in the game. Students are advised to go by food services in the cafeteria if they are un­ sure of their ID's validation. Appalachian Photo by Jl^ SCORING MACHINE: The App soccer team unleashed its offense on Vanderbilt Sunday. The 5-1 win was highlighted by Carlos Lee's two goals.

As USC attempted the option, Freeland made the game's defensive gem by rocking QB Todd Ellis, causing and recovering the fumble himself. On the turnover, the Apps moved from the USC 34 to the four. Payton was again unable to stick the ball in the end zone after three incompletions. "Anytime you get that close, you've got to score," Payton said. "That hurt the team a lot. We had too many chances. If we convert, it's a tie. We've got to execute better or else it comes back to haunt you. "Tonight, the effort was there, but we weren't together as a unit. We broke down offensively and didn't play as a tight unit like we usually do." Opportunity number three came with five minutes remaining in the contest. Freeland, again responsible id ar for a turnover, reacquainted himself with Ellis. This time, the 6-0, 230 cl his t's senior hit the QB halfway through ball throwing motion, knocking the aturi traight up. A blitzing Mark Moore made the interception and returned it o the USC 33 Four plays moved ASU to the one. 3n third down, Sanders leaped high jver the pile for what looked to be the pps' first touchdown, but the officials ruled him down an inch shy if paydirt. An anticlimactic Payton umbled the fourth-down snap, giving lossession to the Gamecocks. As advertised, Woods and the Apps lid put the ball in the air, but not as uccessfully as previously hoped. 3ayton was just 10-23 for 96 yards nd two interceptions.

"I'm not very satisfied with the way we passed the ball," Woods said. "We let some balls float and just made some poor throws. "We've got to throw the ball bet­ ter. If not, we'll just run the ball more or find somebody who can throw the ball." Payton was similarly displeased with his performance. dual The biggest surprise of last week was punter Tony Cox. The former tight end averoged 43.8 yards per punt and did not allow All-America Sterling Sharpe to return a punt. Place kicker Bjorn Nittmo was 1-2, missing from 45 yards while hitting from 25 yards out. Nittmo should have fond memories of last season's game with JMU because it was his 34-yard field goal with four seconds that won the game, 21-20. JMU senior place kicker Tim Garrity is experienced and consistent. Punter John Druiett was an honorable mention AllAmerica selection last year, averaging 40.5 yards a kick. "I'm not very pleased," he said. "I read some of the routes wrong; that was my fault." The Apps cannot be totally turned off by their display at Williams-Brice Stadium. It appears the Apps will again be a team that does well in the turnover margin category. The defense made the Cocks cough up five turnovers, compared to two by ASU. Despite the three-touchdown margin, the Gamecocks will not soon forget the war they experienced Satur­ day night. USC offensive lineman Dave Poinsett, the recipient of Freeland's unabashed onslaught, raised his head from his hands and mumbled, "Appalachian State will win the Southern Conference this year. They're tough." Poinsett lowered his head again, thinking of the painful Sunday that awaited him. MIKE SMITH The Appalachian JERRY SNOW BERRY EPLEY Watauga Democrat Sports Editor M%MES—SEPTEMBER 12 r With the exception of the Gamecock's second-half opening drive for a TD, the ASU defense has to be pleased with their performonce against preseason All-America QB Todd Ellis. DL David Freeland was chosen SC Defen­ sive Player of the Week. LB Kenny Blacknell led all ASU tocklers with 17, giving him a heod start for all-conference considera­ tion. JMU shut out an undermanned Rhode Island squad last week. They return five starters off last year's defense that ranked 11th nationally. 3* «e COLLEGE FOOTBALL PROGNOSTICATIONS Passing Defense A S, ASU's Todd Payton was off-target last week, completing just 10-23 passes for 96 yards. Don't expect the Apps to put the ball in the air quite so often. Wardell Jefferson got the season off to a good start with 5 receptions for 49 yards. Payton must increase his effectiveness if the Apps are to move the ball. Veteran QB Eric Green threw a school-record 16 TD passes last year. He will shoulder an even greater burden with this year's edition of the Dukes. Stockett is one of Green's favorite receivers. When they hooked up, they averaged 21.5 yards. *' \ ADVANTAGE COMMENT The running gome is usually the Apps' strength, but last week South Carolina allowed ASU only 95 yards on 32 carries. Tim Sanders showed signs of his freshman brilliance, but the Apps sorely miss the number 23 in the boddield. Despite their inauspicious start at USC, expect them to run more due to the futility of the passing gome. JMU's all-time leading rusher. Warren Marshall, graduated last year, but the wing-T offense should still be potent, relying on misdirection. Wingbock Rodney Stockett hurt the Apps last year with his speed and versatility.

Advertising Production Manager Big weekend crowd not a big concern !The weekend the town has been anxious about is almost here. Three major events are taking place and Boone will be saturated with visitors and tourists. The Blue Ridge Parkway Viaduct will be dedicated, the Mountaineers will play their first home game and the Harley-Davidson bikers will hold a rally at the Watagua County Fairgrounds. Despite what many appear to believe, the people who attend the ral­ ly are not here to cause trouble. They, like other groups who visit the county, are here to enjoy the mountains and have a good time. They have every right to these privileges as does any native of Boone. The law enforcement officials are preparing for the rally as if trou­ ble Is inevitable. This view, held by many people, could become a selffulfilled prophecy if the rights of the Harley-Davidson rally participants are not recognized. It is small-minded to assume that everyone at the rally is a member of Cell's Angels or are rebel-rousers. Unless trouble does start, the bikers should not be treated like troublemakers. Basically, the rally participants are no different than any other tourist who visits Boone. Some of the motorcyclists may wear black t-shirts and leather boots, but they have every right to the same con­ sideration as the tourists in suits and ties do. If they are left alone to enjoy the rally and the mountains, the chance of people stirring up trouble will be drastically reduced. Pope-on-a-rope? Pope John Paul's tour of the United States has sent entire cities into disarray trying to raise funds to support the elegant receptions seeming­ ly appropriate for a Papal visit. San Francisco is raising $600,000 just for press facilities and Time magazine said in its September 7 issue that it was costing $1 million to prepare the places where the Pope will appear. It seems ironic that this man of God, who is supposed to exemplify the Christ-like virtues of humility and service needs millions of dollars spent to insure his visit is safe and pleasant. The Catholic Church is predominant in some of the poorest coun­ tries in the world. The money spent on Papal luxuries could set up pro­ grams in destitute areas to teach people how to properly feed and clothe themselves. The church that Christ established met the spiritual and physical needs of the individual members. The leaders were called to guide peo­ ple towards God. They were not called to be exalted or in any way set apart from the flock. The Pope is only a man. He is not God and should not be exalted as such.Pope John Paul's background illustrates a considerable amount of humility. This humility is being mocked by the souvenirs markets in the cities he will visit. As one of the most powerful individuals in the world his position does warrant a certain degree of respect. The Pope tee-shirts, Pope-OnA-Rope Soaps and aluminum Pople water sprinklers reduce the man, who is considered by 53 million American Catholics to be God's spokesperson, to a sales gimmick. The Pope is expected to expound upon world peace and ecumenical service. Actions speak louder than words. The best way the Catholic Church, or any other church, can prove faithfulness to basic religious tenets is not through an indulgant display of luxury towards their leaders, but through self-sacrifice and service for those that need help the most—the hungry, the poor and the afflicted. HOLLOW TIMES 1 AM A SHALLOW TIMES M0PERN yOU HI-TECH FELLOW. THESE ARE TOTS WILL NEVER KNOW MOPERN THE COMFORT TIMES. \ OF A RAGGEPN ANPY"' / ? David Farthim Redefining morality legislation By AL HUMAN Appalachian Stall Writer In writing over a semester, I try to stay on one subject only as long as necessary and no more. I certainly don't want the Opinion Page to become a "Dueling Banjos" section of the paper, constantly focused on one subject. However, the best response I have ever received made a legitimate, well-taken point regarding my previous article "Legislating Morals—Might Makes Right." The point has it that I haven't fully clarified what constitutes "legislating morality," what doesn't, and why. One cannot possibly cite all the examples of "legislating morality" in one or two articles. I will try to pro­ vide a clearer definition of "legislating morality," citing ex­ amples and counter-examples, and give further reasons why the State shouldn't take up the task. Morality legislation, otherwise known as "victimless-crime" law, is not directed against coercive acts that violate others rights, but against non­ coercive acts merely deemed immoral by the State or community. By "coer­ cive" I do not mean an undefined THERE 'S SOME ~ BOPY ELSE... WE HAP SOME LAUGHS.. I CAN TELL . WHO IS ITT BUT...TIMES ARE TEXAS INSTRU­ P/FFERENT. MENTS P \ t&U "social harm" meaning anything from broken homes to reduced demand for Gummy Bears. By "coer­ cive" I mean initiating physical violence or fraud against a person or his property to make that person act against his judgment. Seen in this light, laws against drunk driving, selling dangerous houses or spreading dangerous com­ municable diseases are not "victimless-crime" laws. Clearly peo­ ple are physically violated and defrauded when someone drives drunk, sells a dangerous house or spreads disease. Thus, laws against these acts are a legitimate prerog} of government as are laws agi murder, rape assault, robb trespassing and fraud. By contrast, if a person mi owns a gun for collecting, plinkir legally-delimited defense purpi this violates no one's rights. ' laws regulating gun ownership responsible, non-coercive indivic are "victimless-crime" laws and are not a legitimate prerogativ government. Likewise, if a person dr: See MORALITY Pag Evangelist editorial misses the point To the Editor: David Farthing misses the point concerning the rather rude reaction of a group of people to a campus prophet in his column "Ignorance is No Response" in the August 27 issue of The Appalachian. While I agree that obscene speech and gestures are not proper responses to any message on a university campus or any other place, for that matter, I suspect that what the people were objecting to was not the religious message, but rather the fact that they were being forced to listen to it at a time when they preferred to be doing something else. The issue is not one of religion, but rather one of privacy. I think that Mr. Farthing is mistaken when he assumes that simply because a person might not be interested in hearing a religious message at a particular time that he or she is "anti-religion." An alter­ native explanation may be that such a person is simply not interested (at least at that particular time and place). I do read the Bible and I recall a passage from Ecclesiastes which tells us, "To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under Heaven." There is a time to just sit on a stone wall in the sun and relax between classes and a time to seriously contemplate one's religious beliefs or hear a religious message. All of us, college students or others, need to respect the fact that other people have a right to choose when these times are. The evangelist lacked this respect. The students in question never should have had to make the choice to either "ignore it or walk away." A second point that Mr. Farthing seems to miss is that to some people religion is a very personal thing. While some of us may be moved to spread the good news to all those within hearing, there are those of us who believe that our religious beliefs are between us and our God, and are very selective about whom we choose to share them with. A stone wall overlooking Sanford mall with a group of fellow students may have neither been the place nor the com­ pany for serious religious discussion. While we all need to respect the beliefs of those who feel that it is their responsibility to spread the word of one religion or another, these people need to respect our choice to listen or not to listen. The campus evangelist refused to respect that right. Even scholars (and I assume that college students are scholars) have a right not to be interested in anything. I am not (with apologies to my colleagues in the geology department) particularly interested in geomorphology and would prob; resent having someone harange l on this subject without asking m permission. This does not mean: I am ignorant of geomorpholog) does not mean that I am "antigeomorphology." What the campus evangelist, t perhaps Mr. Farthing, need to : realize is that there are a lot of i out here who are not Christians and/or are very satisfied with oi own religious beliefs (which ma) elude a lack of any religious bel at all) and are simply not intere: in being preached to. We are nc "anti-religious", we are simply I interested in someone else's idee this point in time.

I'm i would imply. A message to the wearer of this shirt: what are tainly not going to do it for you. I wish to respond to James Jarrett's emotional and not very well thought out comment on the antipornography law. The purpose of a law is to protect people and to provide grounds by which people who commit a criminal act can be punished. A serious pro­ blem in society today is the exploita­ tion of children and women through the means of pornography. OLIVER ' PONT LEAVE US TO YOUR PAST ' THE M0PERN W0RLP IS SHINY... BUT IT'S ALSO COUP' HERE...SAY HELLO TO SOMEONE YOU HAVEN'T SEEN FOR AWHILE... SO... HOW'VE YA BEEN The homophobic attitude behind the "fag" insult is precisely the same one which prompted the shooting and thousands of other violent acts against lesbians and gays every day. Boone and the surrounding county has always been an attitude-repressed area, and I don't expect much support on this issue from the majority of Dark-Ages-minded students, either, but even a violent statement toward lesbian and gay people is intolerable to me. Particularly the "Stop AIDS" T-shirt that is making the rounds now. If you have been fortunate enough to miss this ugly statement, I'll describe it for you.

Homophobia is when a straight person calls some­ one "fag" as an insult or joke. Homophobia is when you laugh at this joke so your buddies won't think you're gay. Homophobia is when three masked gunmen went into a gay adult bookstore in Shelby, NC recently and killed several customers. They took no money. materials therefore lose money caus­ ing* them to reduce the number of "hardcore" pornographic materials they make. Thus, the number of children and women exploited decreases. A law is not repealed because police "can't possibly catch everyone." Should we legalize murder for that reason? Mr. Jarrett compares this law to prohibition, which he says was repealed because it was "impossible to enforce" (please check your facts, Mr. Jar­ rett). Prohibition and the anti-porn law are not comparable. For one thing, moonshiners were not ex­ ploiting children. Every person who buys por­ nographic material featuring a minor is condoning the sexual abuse of children. As you said, Mr. Jarrett, I'm sure the continued availability of these materials has many anti- pornography people unhappy. 1 also sure that you, though you consider yourself a " 'hardcore anti-porn person," are concern* about the abuse of children. I ! believe, therefore, that the cont availability of pornographic materials concerns all caring cit; and that we all should "do something about it." The anti-pornography law dc have some problems.

According to a report from the Surgeon General of the U.S. Public Health Service, about 1.5 million people in the United States are infected with the AIDS virus and are assumed to be capable of spreading it to others. Those individuals at greatest risk are homosexuals and intravenous drug users who share needles, because AIDS can only be transmitted through the transfer of body fluids. Although the Surgeon General has stressed caution, he has also stressed that the disease cannot be passed through casual social contact such as shaking hands, coughing or sneezing, hugging or social kissing. It is spread only through sexual contact and unsanitary needles. Spokesperson for the Watauga County Health Department Rebecca Scott, said if someone feels they may have been exposed to the AIDS virus they should call the Health Department and ask for an appointment. They have to give a name," Scott said. "They can use their first names or pseudonyms. The tests are strictly confidential." Most of the appointments are for Monday or Tuesday, but they can be made for other times if those days are not convenient. There is counseling available before and after the test. "The person comes in and there is a nurse there to ask him a few questions, tell him some things such as who is at risk and who is not and to answer any questions he might have " Scott said. "One tube of blood is drawn and sent off for analysis. The blood is identified only by a number. The results come back about a week later and the person who comes in to get the results has to bring in a card with that number on it. We have no way of matching names with numbers. This is, of course, to protect a person's privacy," she said. The tests are state-funded and are offered as a service to the public. "The test can only tell whether you have been exposed to the virus," Scott said. "It won't tell you if you actually have AIDS or not, only that you've been exposed." ASU s Director of Health Services Dr. Evan Ashby said there is much being done on campus to educate students about AIDS. "A university-wide task force was formed, made up of four doctors, four lawyers, four administrators and four health educators," Ashby said. The task force came up with a policy for handling AIDS on campuses. This policy which states that no one can be denied a job or an education because he has AIDS was put in every student's mailbox and every faculty and staff paycheck. Also this year all freshmen received in their Appol Corps packets a pamphlet dealing with AIDS. Ashby said that he has talked to many groups about AIDS including food handlers, student organizations and town and civic groups. He stressed that AIDS is spread mainly through sexual contact. "I tell them how AIDS is spread and more importantly how it is not spread. If someone has AIDS, he is more in danger from me than I am in from him. I may give him the flu and that could kill him." Pamphlets, television tapes and people are available to students in order to educate them about AIDS.

Approximately 140 men attended the rush orientation given by the Interfraternity Council. Greek organizations stress leadership, community service, scholarship and sharing common goals and experiences. Members of greek fraternities and sororities often become life-long friends. The fraternity rush is a period at the beginning of the semester that gives pro­ spective members a chance to learn about the various greek organizations on campus and how to get involved. One factor expected to affect the fraternity rush is the state law that raised legal drinking age in North Carolina from 18 to 21. Although the law is a factor in making policy at ASU, IFC President Cam Mills said it was not the prime motivator for greek organizations to implement new social programming guidelines. "Since we've been doing (dry rush) for a couple of years, people are getting used to it and we're not having that much of a problem with the dry rush," Mills said-. "I don't think it's going to change our rush much," Panhellenic President Betsy Griffin said. "Since the age is 21 and most of the people that go through rush are freshmen and sophomores, I don't see the numbers going through rush decreasing." Griffin added that the new law would mostly effect parties and socials planned later during the semester. Mills said the guidelines concerning alcohol will be enforced by the individual fraternities and sororities on campus. Each greek organization will be responsi­ ble for ensuring that only persons of legal drinking age attending a social func­ tion sponsored by the organization be allowed to drink. "I think you are going to see more creative programming ideas in the Greek system," Assistant Director of Student Development Dino DiBemardi said. "The days of the big beer bashes are gone. Greeks aren't here to provide social outlets for students. They are here to meet the needs of their members." Mills said he expected the greek organizations to take the lead in partying responsibly since they were proud of their letters and wouldn't want to do anything to damage their fraternity's reputation. The fraternity rush schedule ends on September 9. Bids on pledges will be extended that day at noon. The sororities will begin their formal rush schedule on September 9. WHAT ARE YOU DOING TONIGHT? Two students relax at the newly dedicated Lily Tomlinson Park near the Duck Pond Field.

The error did however, remind me of something I wanted to explore—graffiti on our beloved ASU campus. I am thoroughly impressed with well-done graffiti. Like any other form of painting, it is legitimate artwork. Well-done is the key word here. Remember that. Another thing that has amazed me is the amount of "indoor graffiti" around school. The Belk Library study carrels are full of the stuff, and I for one absolutely love to sit there and read it instead of doing my Math 1020. I guarantee it is more interesting. You would be surprised how many closet com­ edians are out there. Here are just a couple of excerpts that are worth mention­ ing, the funniest being a personal ad: Good looking guy seeks beautiful girl for affectionate relationship. I am an in­ credible lover. The reply reads; How incredible can you be if you advertise in library study space? Signed: Beautiful girl humored by your attempts. Well, I thought it was funny. Some school graffiti gets quite political in nature: Communism sucks!... Thank you, Rambo for that open-minded view of world government. I really appreciated that one. The outdoor graffiti is the most captivating, however, and before I go any further I'd like to congratulate the Kappa Alpha order on that spectacular job done in the East tunnel. How long did that take? There are countless other phrases and exclamations in those tunnels which deal basically on personal levels, but are fun to read. I'd love for someone to spray paint Happy Birthday to me for the whole college to see. One question has been nagging me, however, and that is whether or not it is legal to spray paint in those tunnels. No one has been able to reply yet, but I suspect it isn't. Free Advertising! Who could ask for more? This, then, leads to another question. If it is illegal why is FCA, a Christian organization, breaking the law? Their graffiti is beautifully stenciled though. This campus has a lot of underground artists and comics—so keep up the good work. But, remember to do your fellow classmates a favor; don't get crude and don't get caught. Quick—who plays a lightning fast guitar, is blind, and from the Blue Ridge Mountains? OK, I'll give you some clues. He was not on the road crew of Deliverance and he never did a cameo on The Beverly Hillbillies. He is con­ sidered one of the foremost country pickers of all time, although his music defies all genres. He has 24 LPs under his belt, earned 4 Grammy awards, received the North Carolina Award in Fine Arts for his unique style in relaying his roots and traditions through music and was the recipient of an honorary degree from Appalachian State University. His name is Arthel "Doc" Watson. He was born and still lives in Watauga County. Born in Deep Gap, North Carolina, Watson was blinded before the age of one by a condition that inhibited blood flow to his eyes. Eager fans, after Wat­ son achieved national success, offered to donate corneas, but doctors said it was too late. Had he not been blind, Watson claims he may very well have pur­ sued a different vocation. It is his physical condition and his roots, as well as his legendary guitar picking, that he owes to his success. His roots lay in the mountains. As a boy he played a banjo his father made with the skin of his granny's cat stretched behind the strings for good tone. Although growing up in depression-era Appalachia was by no means an easy life, he is quoted in People Magazine as saying, "In real cold weather you'd wake up with frost on your pillow." Of course having two brothers in the same bed helped some. It was here that he grew to enjoy all the musical genres that are evident in his music today. He was exposed to pop hits on the band tunes on the phonograph, mountain ditties, church hymns, and olc ballads sung to him by his mother. The murder that inspired the song Dooley" occurred in this area. This song is part of his repertoire. Christened "Doc" by an anonymous radio audience member when tb nouncer of the show found the name Arthel too awkward to articulatj name stuck. During the 1960s folk music revival, Watson veritably be?. career under the patronization of Ralph Rinzler, a folk lorist. It was th! his recordings with Rinzler and countless years on the road with his son\ an excellent picker also, that Watson garnered legions of fans playing) ragtime, bluegrass, jazz, country and folk favorites. His son Merle, D after Merle Travis, tragically died two years ago in an accident, leaving emotional scars. His new LP is aptly named Portrait and is made up of Watson's fa. songs. On the new album he exhibits his legendary prowess on the guitj rich baritone voice and the traditions that have made him famous. [ tunately, it appears that Portrait will be his final album. Watson has annoi his retirement to his home in Deep Gap with wife Rosa Lee. On Augu; citizens of Watauga County were treated to a final concert at Far Auditorium. In attendance was longtime fan, Professor Melissa Barth, who said, lucky to have him here. He's a real treasure. You can tell he really loy music and enjoys entertaining." Many others share her sentiments. Florida friends at ASU By BECKY HIGBEE Appalachian Staff Writer It is unusual to find two people who have been best friends for a long time, but two prominent students at ASU have been for at least eight years. Greg Coury, Station Manager at WASU, and Brent Koeval, the sta­ tion's Sports Director, have known each other since the 9th grade. Both are majoring in Communications (Broadcasting), are from Miami, Florida, have been roommates for the past four years, and both hold leader­ ship positions at WASU. Greg and Brent met in Mrs. Kilmer's 9th grade science class. The two admit they were cut-ups in class. Greg said the class was fun because "we used to give the teacher a hard THE FEET ARE BACK ON THE STREET! Appalachian Photo by Rich Koon Thanks to Lambda Chi Alpha, Yosef is making tracks in anticipation of another fantastic football season. Now fans won't have any problems finding Conrad Stadium, home of the Mountaineers. time. I don't think we were ever serious." Brent said at first they were not lab partners, but somehow he "conned, lied, and connived" to switch because he and Greg got along so well. The two were very active in high school, and they were always looking for a good laugh. Greg was co-editor of the yearbook his senior year and frequently found ways to get out of class. "I always tried to find legitimate excuses to get out of class," Greg said. Brent and Greg were on the student activities committee together. The two were "Grad-Night" chaperones. "Grad-Night" t&s a senior class event from all over Florida where the students could"f?r to Walt Disney World after it closed. "We were joking around the whole time," Greg said. Something that neither one of them will forget is the senior prom. Greg, Brent, and a friend went all out. Brent said, "Greg and I like to do things in extravagant forms." They rented a Lincoln White Stretch limousine fully loaded. "When we got out of the limo with our dates, the Miami Herald was there taking pictures and interviewing us." They spent the rest of the even­ ing dining at a fine Miami hotel restaurant and at about 1 a.m., they all went to Greg's house for a big buf­ fet breakfast. Afterwards, they went on a yacht on Miami's Biscayne Bay and watched the sunrise. Brent said, "We always enjoy talk­ ing about the prom. Between the three of us, we spent between $700 and $800 that night. We always laugh about that, because that was the first and last time we went out with those girls." The story does not end there. Greg is basically an organized guy, so he typed out an agenda for the chauffeur of the limo of where they had to go. He typed the agenda on his computer, and his father got a copy of it. Greg said, "He gave a copy to my brother and sister, along with a video recorder." During the whole date, Greg was being filmed by his brother and sister. "When we had the big breakfast at my house, they played the tapes. I was really surprised!" Greg added. Over the summer, the two friends installed high quality burglar alarms. Greg has an interest in electronics. "I've had a curiosity for alarm systems ever since our house was broken into. I read books on the sub­ ject." The first job they did was for Greg's grandmother. Greg might con­ sider starting his own electronics com­ pany. "I have some ideas I'd like to try. If it doesn't work, I could just fall back on my degree," he added. Brent always planned to come to ASU. "All my life I vacationed here with my family. I also like the mountains."

Late night pizza pig-outs, raiding the vending machines and having the freedom to choose whatever you want to eat or drink often leads to the "freshman 15." These fifteen pounds that slowly collect around your middle can be prevented by adding exercise to your life. First, start with an assessment of your health risks by completing the checklist developed by the American Heart Association. Mark those items that apply to you: ) Your doctor said you have heart trouble, a heart murmur or you have had a heart attack. ) You frequently have pains or pressure—in the left of midchest area, left neck, shoulder or arm—during or right after you exercise. ) You often feel faint or have spells of severe dizziness. ) You experience extreme breathlessness after mild exer­ tion. ( ) Your doctor said your blood pressure was too high and is not under control. Or you don't APPALACHIAN WELLNESS CENTER items, you will need to talk to a doctor before you start exercising. Next, choose an aerobic exercise you think you will enjoy such as swimming, fast walking, cycling, aerobic dance or jogging. To get fit and stay fit your workout should include the following components: F—frequency—3-4 times per week I—intensity—vigorous exercise within your target heart range T—time—20 minutes minimum per workout LIFESAVERS know whether or not your blood pressure is normal. ) Your doctor said you have bone or joint problems such as arthritis. ) You are over 35 and not accustomed to vigorous exercise. ) You have a family history of premature coronary artery disease. ) You have a medical condition not mentioned here which might need special attention in an exer­ cise program. (For example, insulin dependant diabetes.) Warm-up and cool-down—5-10 minutes Exercise at least three times per week spreading your workouts throughout the week (every other day versus just exercising on the weekend). Intensity refers to how hard you should exercise which is best measured by keeping track of your heart rate. To determine your minimum and maximum heart rate subtract your age from 220 and multiply by .60 (minimum) and .75 (maximum). For example, the target range for a 20 year old would be worked out like this: (Minimum) 220 - 20 = 200 x .60 = 120 (Maximum) 220 - 20 = 200 x .75 = 150 ) You have recently had surgery or been hospitalized. When exercising this person would want to keep his/her heart between 120 and 150.

Brent foresight and said it wouldn out. I was real defensive. Need say, Brent's still around and isn't," Greg said. Brent, being the flirtatious, pi, ladies' man, admits that he women. "We both like girls, especial, Greg's out of the running, th He's had a steady girl for the pa: and a half years," said Brent. Brent added, "I'm glad Greg have been friends all these We've had a good time. We'll! good time this year. At least Greg is 'married.' " Greg responded "I've thoro enjoyed being 'married' for th two and a half years beca couldn't have been 'married' to ter girl." Greg and Brent are similar odd couple.

Greg wanted to go to Florida State University and follow the same trend as his brothers and sisters. But, for some reason, FSU turned Greg down. "I guess they weren't as enthused about me as I was about them," Greg said. Brent convinced Greg to come to ASU, and they worked it out to be roommates. Over the years, the two often found themselves liking the same girl. In high school, Greg was dating one girl in particular, "but the charm wasn't there so I broke up with her. Then Brent wound up going out with her longer than I did." Avoiding the "freshman 15" Special to '. i Watson retires his music Greg Rickey By SUSAN MCKENZIE t.

"What was that?" Albain asked, "Light another candle," he said to who was intently peering into a Luther, who was busy sitting in the magnifying lens sitting on top of the Appalachian Staff Writer corner looking stricken. Albain snapped his fingers. "Luther, come, come, boy. Thou hast not time to blame thyself for thy mistakes just yet. We must retrieve the amulet. Afterwards, thou may chastise thyself all thou wish." Luther got up and lit a candle. "Hand me the flask of mercury, Luther." Luther went to the shelves of glass tubes and jars, all with hastily scrib­ bled chemical symbols on them which were difficult to read in the lack of light. "And the blood," Lord Albain added. "My blood?" Luther asked quick­ ly"Which type of blood did thou use in the spell?" "Blood of pig, I believe," Luther replied. "Good," said Albain. "Bring me the pig." Book of Advanced Spells for Magus and Wizard Alike, Vol. II, second edition. "Oh, nothing," Luther said and went off to the kitchen, hoping the cook had not already used the pig. When he returned Albain was putting away the metalworking tools. "This," he said, holding up a silver medallion in the shape of the moon in gibbous phase, "will be our direction. If all goes well, it will point us toward the amulet. Hast thou the pig?" "Yes," Luther said. He dashed into the next room and returned with the animal on a leash. It squealed fearfully, positive that its pitiful end would be near. "Thou art not about to kill it?" Luther asked. "No," Albain replied. "Now get me the ginseng, the elixir of Bethsheba, ground caterpillar pallitive, and three leeches." "Leeches?' Luther said. He looked FOXFIRE Sports_ 25-50% OFF All Summer Clothing pale. "Yes, boy. Give me three leeches." Albain turned to the pig and muttered an incantation. The pig squealed once and was hypnotized. Luther interrupted again. "Do I have to touch the leeches?" Albain only grunted sternly and returned to casting a spell over the pig. Luther left the room, dragging his feet, but he soon returned dutiful­ ly with the materials his teacher requested, even the leeches. He attained them by walking in the moat until three of them attached themselves to his bare ankles. When he returned the second time, Albain took the leeches, ground them into powder and added the other substances. Then, he poured them all into a copper pot and boiled them until a thick, yellow smoke poured from the pot. Luther suddenly felt nauseated, but the pig watched in fascination. "Quick, Luther, get me a nectarine," Albain said, dismissing him with a wave of his hand. "A nectarine?" Luther asked.

"I don't," Albain said, "I'm starv­ ing. Now get me that nectarine." Luther jumped up and ran from the room. Albain poured the liquid from the copper pot into a white, glass bowl and let it cool. He, then, placed it on the floor. "Come here little pig," he said sweetly. The pig shook its head. No way, fathead, the pig thought. Albain used his nicest tone of voice. "Please, pig?" Not on thy life, thought the pig. Albain tried another tactic. "If thou dost not drink this, thou shalt be bacon for breakfast." The pig obediently drank the terri­ ble yellow fluid and pushed the bowl away with his nose. The pig burped. "Thank you," Albain said, removing the glass dish. Luther returned " with the nectarine, which he handed ; to Albain. "Now," Albain said, taking a bite of the sweet fruit. "Let me explain how this shall work. The medallion, as it is made of silver, will glow in the moon's light whenever it is near the amulet or pointing in the direction of the amulet. The pig here can then direct us to the exact location of the amulet by sniffing it out. Hand me the large globe over there." Luther retrieved the sphere and put it down on the desk before Albain. "Turn the globe slowly, and 1 will pass the medallion over it. Stop when the medallion glows and we will see over what country the amulet has fallen." Luther did so, and the medallion began to glow over the British Isles. Luther was ecstatic. "It's nearby!" The pig snorted in contempt. Albain concurred with the pig. "The British Isle is large and covers many small kingdoms. Do not make such a hasty judgement. Give me the atlas, Luther." Deflated, Luther pulled the atlas down from the shelf. Albain opened the large tome to the map of the Isle and passed the medallion over it. It glowed over the southern tip. "Luther," he said, "we may be in luck; it may be close yet. Get dressed for travel. We have a long journey ahead." Continued from Page 2 As you begin your exercise pro­ gram, aim for the lower part of your target range for the first few months. An easy way to check your intensity level is to see if you can keep up a con­ versation comfortably or sing during your workout. Check your heart rate (count for 10 seconds and multiply by six) immediately after exercising. Your workout should include 5-10 minutes of warm-up, at least 20 minutes of vigorous exercise, and 5-10 minutes of cool-down. If you are interested in burning up more calories you should exercise longer not faster or harder! Warming up does not involve stretching as most of us were shown. Experts now say warming up should include gradually increasing the temperature of the muscles by calisthenics, running in place, walking at a moderate pace or using a sta­ tionary bicycle with little or no resistance This will prepare your body for exercise and help prevent muscle pulls or strains. You are warmed up when your muscles feel warm and you are perspiring slightly. SORORITY RUSH 1987 Cooling down comes at the end of a vigorous work out. It is extremely important to maintain the blood flow back to the heart and brain and slowly allow your body to return to its nor­ mal pace. Cool down helps prevent dizziness or muscle cramps that are often associated with vigorous exer­ cise. Stretching is appropriate in the cool down process, aiding in flexibili­ ty and prevention of muscle soreness.

Essen­ tial to your program is knowing your limitations, choosing the exercise best for you, and beginning slowly.

By TROY DOUGLAS Appalachian Staff Writer Appalachian State football opens d;fense of its 1986 Southern Con­ ference title on Saturday night against a most formidable opponent, the South Carolina Gamecocks. The game will feature a battle of contrasting styles as the Apps use a ball-controlled offense while the Gamecocks rely on the big-play potential of the run-and-shoot of­ fense. ASU Coach Sparky Woods has a reason to be concerned. "We can't give up the big play, he said. They(USC) are home-run hitters and will try to get it all in one play." Triggering the Gamecock run-andshoot will be All-American candidate receivers at his disposal and all of them are big, strong, and fast. Sterling Sharpe and Ryan Bethea are Ellis' favorite targets. The pair hauled in a combined 101 passes for 1678 yards and 15 TD's. The excitement begins after they catch the ball as both possess a great ability to make people miss tackles. "They(Sharpe and Bethea) are a constant threat," Woods said, "they are exceptionally dangerous in the open field." Add to this a quality offensive line form what may be the best defensive front in the Southern Conference. "Their offensive line is well coach­ ed," said Downs, a two-time AllAmerican choice. "We must get a good pass rush in order to have hopes of containing Ellis and their passing game." Inside linebackers, Kenny Blacknell and Orlester Glanton, along with out­ side backers, Sam Sanders and Xeno Williams, will be called upon to make tackles on the occasional running plays, as well as taking care of their designated areas on the passing downs. The App secondary consisting of corners Quincy Bethea and Keith Col­ lins, and free safety Leonard Lee know they have their hands full. "We must play to the best of our Appalachian Photo by USC Sports Information Over 72,000 faithful Gamecock await the Mountaineers.. Appalachian Photo by USC Sports Information (Left to right) USC wide receiver Ryan Bethea, quarterback Todd Ellis and wingback Sterling Sharpe. Appalachian Photo by USC Sports Informotlon quarterback Todd Ellis. Ellis, a redshirt sophomore, has been called by many the best quarterback in the land. Ellis had a record-breaking year last season as he completed 205 passes for 3020 yards and 20 touchdowns. Woods has a great deal of respect for Ellis. "We must keep him off the field," Woods said. "He is a great com­ petitor that makes big plays. He could play for anybody in the country." Ellis has a stable of fleet-footed and you can see whv the Gamecocks and you can see why the Gamecocks are capable of ringing up some big numbers. ASU's defense will be hard pressed to stop this explosive unit, but they aren't conceding anything yet. It will be essential that the Apps keep pressure on Ellis and not let him have all day to throw. This means that the outcome of the contest could be decided in the trenches. The Apps feature a very physical defensive line. Guards Jimmy Snowden and David Freeland, along with their running mates, tackles An­ thony Downs and Dennis Sanders, Appalachian Photo by USC Sports Information capabilities," Lee said. "We think they will get frustrated and try to force it if we don't let them have the big play." "I've watched a lot of film on them," said the hard-hitting Lee. "I really haven't seen them get hit. Maybe it's because they are great athletes, but I'm anxious to see how they Respond tp-contact.'' Defensively, the Gamecocks employ a blitzing, intimidating style that tries to force opponents into mistakes. "Up front, they are very aggressive and quick," Woods said. "In Derrick Little and Greg Philpot they possess two truly outstanding players." Little, at 6-4, 230 pounds, is a linebacker who likes to hit. He also has great speed, and will run down opposing rushers. Philpot, who had two interceptions in the 1985 contest against the Apps, has been moved from free safety to strong safety. "They moved him to get closer to the action," Woods said. "He has great range, and makes plays all over the field." Offensively, with the loss of John Settle, the Mountaineers will ask quarterback Todd Payton to put the ball in the air in 1987. Don't, however, expect the Apps to try and get into an aerial duel, because the offensive line, alias The Hogs, averages 6-4, 270. All-conference tackle James Hardman doesn't think that size will be the key in this instance. College Football Prognostications "They have a great defensive line and linebackers," Hardman said. "They are small compared to us but they make up for it with outstanding quickness and speed." The Apps have a new punter in Tony Cox, a transplanted tight end, and the ASU coaching staff expects the Gamecocks to come after him. The Apps also specialize in blocked* punts, having blocked 16 kicks in the1 last two years. Expect the "Black "We can't give up the big team(ASU punt-block team) to come play. They(USC) are home- after the Gamecock punter as well. run hitters and will try to Turnovers are also a big concern for both coaches.

"They have three j? ent runners this year." have been two key losses m last year's squad. Cindy Little, a asset last year, graduated and - Appalachian Photo by ASU Sports Information Vanessa Tysor will certainly affect the team," Weaver said. Three runners that Weaver is counting on are Vanessa Tysor, Karen Osada and team leader Beth Ruggles. "Tysor, Osada and Ruggles make up the nucleus of the team," Weaver said. "I look up to Beth and so does the team for leadership." Two other key runners are Holly DeCan and Jennifer Bowers. Bowers is a freshman but is in good shape and looks promising. Other freshmen joining the team are Melissa Graves, Riepee Melton, Laura Girouard and South Carolina is one of the nation's top pass­ ing teams led by record-setting QB Todd Ellis. Look for the Cocks to put the ball in the air 35+ times. Sharpe and Ryan Bethea are fleetfooted and strong. They often break tackles after the catch for a big gainer. ASU coach Sparky Woods knows his Apps will have to throw the ball. QB Todd Payton completed 50 percent of his passes last year, but threw only half as often as Ellis. WR Sam Wesley and Wardell Jefferson caught only 17 passes between them last year. Defense Kicking Michelle Crow, last year's Southern Conference Champion, is taking time off from running.

A new ploce kicker is need­ ed to reploce Scott Hogler. Little brother Sam is a leading candidate, but without any game experience. Junior Tony Cox will handle ASU's punting duties. Though untested, he was ranked fifth in the nation among junior colleges in punting in 1985. Place kicker Bjorn Nittmo appears to be over a thigh injury that has hampered his practice. Nittmo nailed 19-27 field goals and 33-36 PATs last year. Intangibles The Mountaineers will not sneak up on USC as they did two years ago in losing 20-13. The Cocks have high aspirations for this year and do not intend to let ASU spoil them. All this aside. 72,000 fans in garnet and black will be supporting USC. •fjjkV i - pHr " "v'a. J '" i 1 Stat© Appalachian Photo by ASU Sporti Information Beth Ruggles ADVANTAGE ASU should hold its own on defense. The huge frontline featuring All-America Anthony Downs (6-2, 275) may deter USC from establishing any running game. The big ques­ tion mark for Woods is the inexperienced secondary—not a good place to be weak against USC's run-and-shoot offense. The Cock defense did not ring up impressive stats in 1986. USC gave up 26 points and 175 yards rushing a contest, something the Apps hope to take odvantage of. Eight starters return on a defense that combines quick linebackers with hefty linemen up front, the best of which is NG Roy Hart (6-0, 255). USC coach Joe Morrison brought in a new defensive coor­ dinator and alignment ("50"). This presents more of a gambling, exciting defense. Veaver looks to defend SC crown By KAREN GOSCH COMMENT The Apps return Ritchie Melchor (533 yards) and Tim Sanders (196 yards) to take over the tailback chores relinquished by All-America John Settle. The Mountaineers will continue to be an effective running team behind on offen­ sive line that averages 6-4, 260. But without Settle, it is uncertain they can ground out 246 yards a game like last year. The Gamecocks will attempt to establish somewhat of a run­ ning game. They can run the option with AllAmerica wingback Sterling Sharpe or sophomore Harold Green. If USC gets their speedy backs into the open field, anything can happen. Leigh Cooper. On September 12, the Women's team will attend the Wake Forest In­ vitational. Weaver hopes the team will place in the top three out of the nine schools competing, but he ex­ pects Wake Forest to win and pro­ bably attend the national meet. "The first meet is something I never put a lot of pressure on," Weaver said. EVEN Repeating this year as confereqoe champions is a big challenge. However, with key runners bke Tysor, Osada and Rugles it is possi­ ble. "As a team if we can come together, not place too much em­ phasis on being tough at the begin­ ning and just concentrate on being tough at the end of the season, we will have met our goals," Weaver said. �THE A PPA LACHIAN, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1987 ASUshuts out Warren Wilson By ERIC BOLASH Appalachian Staff Writer Heisman race may be most exciting ever ' Aloi with the opening of the college football season comes the beginning of the Heisman Trophy race, the award given to supposedly the best college football player in the land. In the past the award has usually shown who has the best Sports Informa­ tion Department in the nation as the race is normally decided before the open­ ing kickoff. This year, however, there is no clear-cut favorite and as many as six players could come away with the trophy. The leading candidate going into 1987 has to be Notre Dame superman Tim Brown. Brown does it all for the Fighting Irish. Last season Brown scored two touchdowns as a running back, five as a receiver, and was the only player in Division I to return two kickoffs for touchdowns. Although Brown will get plenty of media hype, a major ingredient in win­ ning the Heisman, he is used mainly as a wide receiver which doesn't sit well with the voters. One position which does please the voters is quarterback, and the Oklahoma Sooners have one of the best in the land in Jamelle Holieway. Although Holieway doesn't posess a big league arm, he is one of the best engineers ever to play the game. "Perhaps the best wishbone quarterback I have ever had," says OU Coach Barry Switzer. As a freshman, Holieway guided the Sooners to a National Championship. Last season, while earning Big Eight Player-of-the-Year honors, he took Oklahoma to a 42-8 rout of Arkansas in the Orange Bowl. Quarterbacks have won two of the last three awards but it still remains a running back trophy. Maybe the best running back in the land carries the ball for Michigan State. Remember Lorenzo White? White's sophomore year he scampered for 1,908 yards, the fifth highest total in history. Last year injuries slowed the Spartan junior down and he finished out of the top twenty in rushing. If White can get off to a fast start, look for a running back to once again win the Heisman. Probably White's biggest competition at running back comes from Alabama's Bobby Humphrey. Last year Humphrey gained 1,471 yards rushing, led the SEC in scoring (104 pts.), set seven Alabama records and tied two others. The Heisman voters like schools such as Alabama and if Humphrey can make some noise early he is more than a longshot. The three longshots in this -year's race have to be Florida's Kerwin Bell, Ohio State's Chris Speilman and Holy Cross's versatile Gordie Lochbaum. Although these are three excellent players neither has much of a chance, but An enthusiastic announcer exclaim­ ed, in dry humor at best, that all fans should prepare for "Mountaineer Magic!" ASU soccer fans and players may have been laughing, but Swannanoabased Warren Wilson ^vas about to get a taste of this notorious ''Magic." Chris Malmfelt lobbed a through-ball to striker, Carlos Lee who proficient­ ly hit the ball low and to the near post. The keeper made the save, but Lee would continue to hit for the rest of the night. A goalkeeper can only withstand so much, and, with a ratio of 27 shots to two by Warren Wilson, the outcome was not surprising. Twenty-two minutes into the match, Hank Coppedge produced a quick, exciting goal. Coppedge followed and put away a rebound from Warren Wilson keeper, Mike Flowe, scoring the first goal of the season. Appalachian's offense put a great deal of pressure on the opposing backs. They were not, however, able to finish on many opportunities. September 1, opening night, brought a 3-0 win for the Moun­ taineers in a match which they dominated in all aspects. The front line, overall, had an effi­ cient evening. Most shots were kept low and to the corners of the goal, ex­ cellent indications of discipline. The opening seconds of the game produced a scoring opportunity. Coach Rex commented, "We need to get a bit more goal production. I was a little disappointed that we couldn't do more." The ASU defense did quite well in a game which could have been deadly hypnotic in its simplicity. Stopper, Chris Cody won many balls in the air, and freshman sweeper, Mike Dehner seemed quite comfortable.

I don't want in the county voting rolls have ever attended a public Appalachian Staff Writer Anti-porn is unconstitutional By JAMES F. JARRETT Appalachian Staff Writer No one, however, is completely protected from the virus and anyone suspecting they have been exposed to AIDS should be screened. The counseling before and after the testing is a benefit that can help people deal with the fears that come from suspecting exposure. The AIDS scare has perpetuated many misconceptions about the manner in which the virus can be spread. The screening is only one of many ways that the county has attempted to educate the public. Only through proper education and understanding of the disease can people protect themselves and others from AIDS. The Watagua County Health Department should be applauded for offering such a valuable and necessary service to the public for free. __ ' hearing? How many of us have cursed about paying fifty cents to ride the Appalcart without ever know­ ing how much those drivers do for the elderly andixufirm of the county? How many of us know about the social services the county offers? I'm willing to bet the answers to all those ques­ tions will be the same—very, very few. The same students who complain about Boonians' lack of in­ terest in them, display a continuous lack of interest in Boone. I think the appropriate cliche is "the pot calling the kettle black." If we as students want to oe treated with respect, we have to do something to show that we are worthy of that respect. Acting as if we own the place—when we so obviously don't—is certainly no way to make the rightful owners happy, and is not likely to get us anywhere. If we want to be treated as people, its time we started being people, instead of just "students." Most people are familiar with the North Carolina pornography law. This law has created quite a bit of controversy in the months it has been in effect. The major question that has come into the spotlight is the drawing line between art and pornography. In the eyes of one person, pornography is only x-rated movies and magazines, while other people may believe a poster of Heather Thomas in a bathing suit is just as pornographic. If that is the case, my dorm room (and half the other rooms on campus) is in for a major raid. Unless I am mistaken there is a constitutional amendment that concerns freedom of the press. There is also a clause concerning freedom of choice. If the Constitution says these things then how did the pornography law get passed in the first place? Several art shows and displays have been closed down by people claiming the works to be too explicit or pornographic. Some of these shows had been going on for years before the law came into effect and no one seemed to notice. There was an article in my hometown newspaper about an art teacher who had been arrested. Apparently he was showing his class the same art history films and slides he had always shown when the police came in and took him away on charges of violation of the pornography law. Publicized arrests like this are intended to give people the impression that pornography will not be tolerated and anyone in violation will be arrested. This is not so! Hardcore pornographic materials are just as available today as they were before the law was passed. The only difference is now they are bought at the back of alleys and cost much more. This law closely resembles the prohibition act of the early 1900's. During pro­ hibition, many gangs and syndicates made a fortune selling illegal alcohol for several times what it was worth. The law was later repealed because it was im­ possible to enforce. For every group the FBI caught, several more went undetected. s The North Carolina pornography law will in due course be repealed. This will happen when the law enforcement officers realize that there is no way they can possibly catch everyone and the politicians realize people are getting rich off their legislation. The public has come to the point where they don't even remember the law ex­ ists. The desired "materials" are still quite available and the law enforcement "fervor" has died down considerably. This probably has several "hardcore" anti-pornography people very unhappy, but if they are so unhappy, then let them do something about it themselves! New system needs to allow "shopping 99 Look closer into fraternities to see good By SCOTT CROWE Appalachian Columnist norance. The best that I got from these people was an "I don't know," or an "I don't care." Since I do care about what happens on campus I will not speak on them further. I did some research into the greek community to answer this question of worthiness and found some in­ teresting facts. Many people don't realize what goes on and this leads to their misconceptions about greek life. First, a fraternity isn't founded by a bunch of guys who want to have a good time. All fraternities were founded by one or several respectable people. They have set un organiza­ tions which help develop students into productive men by teaching them leadership, organization skills, social responsibility and the list goes on. Another fact I discovered was that fraternities are not just a group of guys that get together to get drunk and party. These fraternities go out into the community and help people. Fund raisers, clean-up projects and various services are rendered which show their responsibility. It is true that the guys like to have a good time, but they earn it. Each fraternity requires that you maintain a set GPA in order to stay active in the organization. Also, there are study re­ Are fraternities really worth it? This is the question I have explored in the past several weeks. In my observa­ tions I have found that people have one of three opinions. A large number of people I talked to have the stereotyped image of fraternity organizations. They think the greeks have their own little society of people that believes they are better than the rest. This group of people has evidently not looked into any of the greek life and explored what these people do or what it is all about. They think that all these fraternities do is party, go wild and alienate others—a Most students at ASU are between 18 and 23 years old and do not typical misconception. always have a clear idea of what they want to do after college.

CHEATBP ON HER The changes in Drop/Add in the past year have sent many students' heads spinning. It seems information about the new system, which has been altered each semester, is unclear. Tuesday, Registrar Brooks McLeod said the system was backed up because of students' poor planning. He said there was not a lack of computer terminals, but because there were no classes to add, students came merely to "shop for classes." Drop/Add should not be a system set up for the convenience of faculty, the administration or the registrar. The process should be devised to help students obtain the best schedule possible. The com­ puters should facilitate quick schedule adjustments. Unfortunately the administration overlooked one major problem. quirements and other brothers help­ ing you solve problems you might have. This is to help keep grades up. Only after you have good grades can you have a good time. From what I have seen, I feel that the brotherhood, support and learn­ ing experiences in a fraternity are an excellent way for a person to go through college. The services, com­ munity projects and responsibilities help mold young men into productive citizens that we as a student body should be proud of.

My team increased with confidence as one empty can after another hit a nearby dumpster. It seemed to be a sure win in the making, and we couldn't help but allow a few laughs to dismiss the threat of losing from our minds. In an hour's time, my team and I stood shocked and humiliated after losing to people that, only one hour before, would have been found legally drunk in any North Carolina court room. I find the lesson of that game touching an emotion deeper than just common embarrass­ ment. Alcohol has become a powerful influence in society, and in all fairness, has earned a sense of self-esteem. The con­ flict is that society does not know how to deal with alcohol's proven esteem.

Mr. Simmons wrote that "the per­ sons responsible for the sculpture in front of the Jones House (as op­ posed to the sculptures on campus) have better taste and knowledge of what art is." This statement is false. The figurativeMones House sculpture, Image Change, was selected by the same juror, Richard Hunt, who chose the ten on-campus works. The sculptures were not "strewn" as Mr. Simmons claimed, but are carefully bolted to concrete bases on sites selected by a committee which included ASU students. Ribbons III was not installed •''without warning" as Mr. Simmons >&rote, but was well publicized far enough in advance to draw a crowd of about 30 spectators who received it enthusiastically. Most of the spec­ tators were ASU students. Mr. Farthing wrote that "Ameri­ can artists are slaves to the almighty dollar and tend to produce works that are unrealistic." If "un­ realistic" means that the works do not depict things as we perceive them in the "real" world, this state­ ment is false. While many artists work in an "abstract" style, most artists working today represent things they see in everyday life. I have listed actual "things" repre­ sented by the sculptures on campus as verified by the sculptors themselves.

Maybe your intellect would develop. Your article in the August 25, 1987 issue of The Appalachian not only showed your cultural ignorance but gave a poor impression of ASU students as a whole. It is presumptuous for one in­ dividual to decide what others should appreciate. Your ignorance would not have been as obvious if you had not decided to give your readers your own specialized defini­ tion of art. We are sorry to inform you that Webster disagrees with your biased definition. Webster says art is "works designed to give intellectual pleasure." As you may note, this definition mentions nothing about understanding art. It does, however, mention in­ tellect. Since you felt that most of It the pieces of art on campus "reeked of childishness," may we assume that this is an indicationvof your in­ tellect. We applaud the Appalachian Summer program for making ASU look like a university. The art has enlightened the entire area and we eagerly await an encore. Jackie Simpson Doug Rushing �THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1987 Classifieds Bridge is fun and educational To the Editor: Most educators list that one of the primary reasons for pursuing a col­ lege education is to prepare to lead a more productive and enjoyable life after graduation than would other­ wise have been your lot. I believe for most of you this is a major ob­ jective. Your leisure time activities should contribute to your happiness to a great extent. Perhaps the single most potent provider of leisure enjoyment would be for you to learn how to play a good game of bridge. This is one game you will enjoy for the rest of your life. Bridge is fun for everyone, regardless of skill level. Playing bridge helps people overcome social barriers based on age, gender, or physical condition. Bridge is a lowcost, anytime, anywhere activity. Bridge is undoubtedly the world's most played game. It can be of significant help in opening doors for you, even hard-to-get business con­ tacts. Bridge is a skill you should develop. Learning to play bridge is no easy task, but is great fun even as you learn. You need a fine teacher and a group of interested classmates. Bridge is indeed as much a discipline as mathematics or physical science. If you play well you will be highly respected and sought after as a part­ ner. I hope to be instrumental in set­ ting up a Bridge Club at ASU and helping to develop a Bridge team to enter intercollegiate competition.

American youth have a burden of proof that has attached itself to the advancement of each generation. Un­ til a respect for the use of alcohol is achieved, then laws prohibiting the use of it by anyone under 21 should stay in strict effect. The public must be educated about alcohol. Until we learn more about it's effects, authori­ ty's duty is to protect us from our own ignorance. Alcohol is an oppo­ nent whose plan is to disguise itself in a sense of weakness, only to be discovered as the power that it really is. Power is a hard thing to manage, and only a few people handle it. Alcohol vs. the average person has something of a shutout record. Alcohol beats him, while everyone closes their eyes from the evidence. There is a certain glory in being the underdog, and alcohol knows it.

Study In China Available "Schedule information is used to determine financial aid eligibility and creates charges on their accounts. Students should take advan­ tage of this and have everything ready," Rankins said. Although the drop-add system needs a little more organization, Rankins said the new system has its advantages. With the new system, a lot of timeconsuming things can get done early. For example, meal card money was automatically fed into the student's account through the system. "Previously, the student had to wait in line with 3000 other students to get his meal card validated," Rankins said. The registration office is looking at other things that can be done early. "The ideal situation would be for the stu­ dent to successfully pre-register and pay the tuition by the specified date. This would allow us to post information to food services, hous­ ing, the post office and other offices ahead of time," Rankins said. "We want to lower the amount of activity during adjustment period," he added. Stadium Lot parking improving By J. SHAVER Appalachian Staff Writer ASU Security is faced with increasing illegal parking problems this year. "There are more cars this year than we've had in the past. It's just the availability of parking spaces. We cannot accommodate everyone," Traffic Supervisor Steve Perry said. "We have an increase in freshmen this year, and it seems like all of them brought cars. The stadium parking and the perimeter parking areas seem to be our biggest problem," he added. Perry also said that there has been a significant number of violators in the stadium lot. "We assign upperclassmen to the stadium area which in­ cludes seniors and approximately 100 juniors who live in the area. The rest of the stadium is used for commuters," Perry said. Perry said parking was not allowed on the Duck Pond field. "As far as the stadium area goes, we have an officer up there eight hours a day, trying to keep the violators out; both unregistered cars on campus, and people parking in the stadium area that are not assigned there. "If we can get all the violators out of the parking lots, then we can accommodate more of the people that are assigned up there," Perry added. Perry said 65 parking spaces were created this summer near the industrial arts building. He said they have helped, but not nearly enough. Campus security may have plans in the future to alleviate the problem. "That's something we're going to have to talk about this year. If they continue with a large enrollment like this year's, 1 think something is going to have to be done," Perry said. Some students living in the stadium area have expressed irritation with the situation. TICKETING PROBLEMS: Security has been giving "I usually have to park across campus because there are tickets to students who park illegally in the Duck Pond so many people parked illegally near where I live," one Field.

Student court works to reduce backlog By TRENT HUFFMAN Anislinl News Editor A rash of 45 first offense referrals from last spring semester has caused a backlog in the student Court this year. Chief Justice Kim Gray said, "Last year it got really hectic and we got a lot of first offense cases sent in. I believe we'll be able to get (the backlog) cleared up fairly quickly." Thirty cases have been scheduled to come before the student judiciary at its first ses­ sion tomorrow night. Attorney General An­ drew Heckle said that the workload was three times greater than a typical night for the justices last year. \ Gray said that most of the offenses in the backlog were for underage possession of alcohol. Most of these violations are refer­ red from residence halls occupied primarily by freshmen. "Every year, that's your most frequent violation. The freshmen are in the residence halls and the temptation is always there," Heckle said. Gray said that much of the court workload will be reduced this year by a new residence life intervention program. The residence life intervention program, which was proposed last semester by the Office of Residence Life, allows students accused of minor violations to be counseled by their resident assistant, the resident hall director and the area coordinator. On minor first offenses, such a 4Uiei Attempted robbery reported in Coltrane By MATT HAWKINS Appalachian News Editor Students interested in spending the 1987-88 ademic year conducting research and teaching conrsational English at ASU's sister institution, The ftheast University of Technology in Shenyang, 'ina, should contact Tom Adams in the Office of Ernational Studies at 262-2046.

"Our system will run smoothly as students' awareness of the program increases," he said. For the spring semester and in the future, McLeod said he hopes drop-add will be more organized and less time-consuming. "If the number of students with incomplete schedules is brought down to a manageable level, then we want to try to expand the day of registration to include these people," he said. By doing this, we can deaJ with those students who need it first." Rankins agrees that expanding registration to include students with incomplete schedules is a good idea, but he is doubtful. "I'm not sure we can do it. Yes, we want to include incomplete schedules with the priority group, but I don't think it's possible because of the number of students registering," he said. "How can we fit those students all in one day?" Rankins explained that this semester's oneday registration was going well until later in the day when the ciases started to fill up and scheduling became more difficult. "Registration slowed down and we were over an hour behind," he said. Rankins said students don't realize how im­ portant their schedules are. An ASU student was assaulted in Coltrane Hall last Monday afternoon, August 24. ASU News Bureau Director Speed Hallman received information from Associate Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Barbara Daye concerning a female student that was attacked in one of the elevators of Coltrane Hall about 12:50 p.m. The assailant has not been identified by name or apprehended by authorities.

I- �2 THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 1987 IET addition to open soon Kim Gray By NICOLE PARSONS Appalachian Staff Writer ASU's new Industrial Education and Technology (IET) building is near completion. The 37,000 square foot, $4.2 million complex should be ready for use by the end of October. "Construction is 90 percent finished. Progress was slowed due to snow this past winter," Director of Facilities Support Services Larry Bordeaux said. "We start turning over the building for departmental use in latter September. It is going to be a fine, good quality building," he added. "The purpose for the new building is to alleviate the over-crowdiness and accommodate for the increasing rise in students in the department," Chairman of Industrial Education and Technology Dr. Ming Land said. "Demands are especially being made in graphic arts and electronics. The department outgrew the old building and heeded more space for more laboratories," he added. Land describes the building as modern and contemporary designed with a passive solar energy design. All the walls and the passive solar energy design face the south side and accommodate solar heat. The facility has two floors. The first floor accommodates department offices, faculty offices, an auditorium and three laboratories for manufactur­ ing, construction and appropriate technology. The second floor has five dark rooms and a photography laboratory including three other labs for graphic arts, paper-testing and a testing lab. "An approximate half million dollars from the state has been spent on new equipment and will take two or so weeks to move in," Land said. No new classes or programs are being added as a result of the bigger building. "All programs will be continued along with two relatively new programs of Appropriate Technology and a graduate program in Industrial Technology which was added last spring," Land said. The new IET building is located on River Street across from campus security and the physical plant. Student judiciary begins tomorrow Appalachian Photo by Jim Kohlor IET'S NEW SQUARE FEET: The addition will be turned over to In­ dustrial Education and Technology later this month. The 37,000 square feet will include classrooms and shop facilities. Off-campus affairs position established By MATT HAWKINS Appalachian News Editor The SGA has formed a new OffCampus Affairs committee within the student senate. The committee is made up of senators serving in off-campus posi­ tions. There are at least 45 offcampus seats in the senate already fill­ ed. "Our job is to promote awareness of campus activities to the off-campus students," Off-Campus Affairs Chairperson Gary Greene said. "When students have problems or havb questions, we are here to provide them with the information they need and help in any way we can." Greene stressed that the majority of ASU students are living off-campus and that they need to "feel in­ cluded." The first meeting for the committee is scheduled for Tuesday, September 15. Greene plans at that time to discuss various plans for the commit­ tee. "When on-campus students move into their dorm rooms they receive items like calendars and other things to help them out. Off-Campus Af­ fairs hopes to work with the different apartment complexes to place these items in their rooms," Greene said. The committee plans to issue a monthly newsletter to all off-campus students informing them of oncampus activities and it will feature a different organization each month. "In working with the different apartments we plan to post several bulletin boards to display an­ nouncements," Greene said. "This committee is a new idea. Students off-campus can expect something positive," SGA Vice Presi­ dent Adelaide Beeker said. "What happens this year will determine what happens next year." Court Continued from Page 1 because it makes the disciplinary pro­ cedure a personal one and a more educational one." Resident Assistant Angela Price from Coffey Hall said, "I believe that the intervention system will greatly improve the disciplinary processes of the university. Since the minor viola­ tions will be dealt with first by the residence hall staff, the cases that are sent to student court will be only the more serious violations.", "We're hoping with this counsel­ ing, students will think twice before committing an offense," Gray said. "It's a way of giving students a se­ cond chance." Even with the new intervention pro­ cess in effect, Gray said that it could take until the beginning of November to level off the backlog so that new cases could be handled with max­ imum efficiency by the student court. "We're still going to be getting a lot of underage drinkers," Gray added. Eat In — Take Out Delivery 11:30am-10:00pm suss WELCOME BACK Ask about our 12 fori Club Card A.S.U.

"We hope to work closely with the town officials and the Community Affairs committee to install more lights off-campus," Greene said. "Since more light was installed oncampus, I don't see why we couldn't increase lighting off-campus." In years past, the students at ASU have been unaware of Student Judiciary and their roles in it. It is the purpose of this column to better inform students, faculty and staff of the judicial process and how it benefits ASU. Student Judiciary is comprised of three justices from each class who are nominated, screened by the Rules Committee and elected by the senate. Each justice is chosen on the basis of their knowledge of the judicial code, unbiasedness and interest in Student Judiciary. Justices play an important role in Judiciary as they are the determining fac­ tor for whether the defendant is found guilty or innocent and what sanction the defendant receives. The judicial officers are also an important part of Student Judiciary. They include the Public Defender, Attorney General, Chief Justice and their assistants. The court officers are the governing body of the ASU Judicial System. When a student violates a student law he or she is cited on an incident report and the Associate Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs formally charges the defendant with breaking a student law. A copy of the charge is then sent to the student, the Attorney General, the Public Defender and the Chief Justice. After the Public Defender and the Attorney General thoroughly investigate the case, a court date is set, defendants and witnesses are summoned and the case is heard. If the student is found guilty, he or she must pay a $5 assessment fee and meet with their respective area coordinators. Some examples of sanctions are Judicial and Administrative Reprimands, General Probation, Specific Probation, Suspended Suspension, Suspension and Expulsion. We hope this basic overview has been helpful and we welcome any questions concerning the Judicial System. Student Judiciary is designed to help students, not to restrict and hinder their development. Any student having questions may call the Student Court offices at 262-2102 or 262-6258. We look forward to working with you and for you in the upcoming year. 264-4159 COUPON Get 20 oz drink IT'S NOT ICE CREAK IT'S NOT YOGURT. . .

One student apparently finds Sanford Mall conducive to hitting the books. As the semester progresses and the weather cools, the dedicated students will have to move inside to the library or residence halls. Until then, the students need to enjoy the trees and weather as much as possible. Even if you have to hit the books to do it.

A Boone police records clerk said they received no report of the incident and that it is the responsibility of ASU security to deal with on-campus assaults unless police assistance is needed. ASU Director of Security Roy " . . . i f an assault occurs in the general campus area, then we alert the news people." Barbara Daye Associate Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Tugman was unavailable for com­ ment on the incident. "We have a policy that if an assault occurs in the general campus area, then we alert the news people," Daye said. "If the accident occurs in a building, we work with students in that area to release whatever informa­ tion necessary." Coltrane Hall Residence Director Carole Chenault said a report was made to campus security about the in­ cident, but that the victim was unable to completely identify a specific in­ dividual. All of the information that has been released thus far has been verified by Chenault. In dealing with cases of assault on campus, Daye said victims should be handled on a psychological basis. The Reich College of Education is offering scholarships to students who will be juniors or seniors next fall and who are pursuing B.S. degrees with teacher certification. Applicants will be judged on scholastic merit, commitment to teaching, potential to be an effective teacher, demonstrated leadership and financial need. "Scholastic merit simply means a student must have a cumulative grade point average of at least 3.0." Assistant Dean of the College of Education Dr. Mae Reck said. "Commitment to teaching is judged by a statement students write on the application telling their goals and commitment to a career in teaching." Applicants are also provided space to tell of their academic honors, extra curricular activities, work experience and leadership positions they have held. Financial need is determined from students' expected income from any anticipated source. Any other factors that might influence financial need are also considered. "The scholarships range from $300 to $500 and are awarded on a semester basis," Reck said. "All students getting teacher certification, whether in biology, math, or English are eligible. All departments can apply." "The Reich College of Education Scholarship Committee will read and evaluate all the applications. They will conduct interviews and make recom­ mendations to the Dean of Education who will okay the scholarships." There are three reference forms with the applications that students must have someone fill out and turn in for them. These references are also used in determining an applicant's qualifications. The deadline for next fall is October 15. Students who want to apply can pick up applications in the dean's office.in the College of Education.

I have a news item in front of me reporting that the Concerned Parents Monitoring Comics (CPMC) has issued a list of comic strips that it feels "promotes anti-social behavior, lack of respect for authority, and, in some cases, the occult and drugs." - Among the strips were: The Far Side, Doonesbury, Bloom County, Life in Hell, and Dennis the Menace. Yes, DENNIS THE MENACE. The basic dilemma of censorship seems to be one of where to draw the line; how far is it proper to go in the defense of innocent children? I used to go in the convenience store across from my church and find little children who had snuck away standing and looking at pornographic magazines that were kept where they could reach them. As soon as the new obsenity law was passed those magazines disappeared, and I think that was a good thing. Later I heard a group was trying to get Flowers for Algernon banned from Charlotte school systems. Can these people have read the book, one of the most touching things I've ever encountered, and still want to ban it? Or did one of them just skim through looking for dirty parts? This sounds to me like the people who found Brave New World on a dirty book list and stole all the copies from the local libraries and destroyed them without reading them. Obviously, if you haven't read a book all the way through, you don't know what you're talking about. Take Brave New World again. I doubt many of the fundamentalist opponents of the book know what they're trying to deprive the rest of us of. Brave New World is about a society where sex and drugs have gained preeminence. They are rampant and institutionalized; used as tools to control the masses. Individualism is discouraged, and the society is shown to be empty both morally and intellectually. Why are fundamentalists so eager to ban a book that preaches their message? Could this be more a matter of personal taste than the moral outrage they would like us to believe? Everyone knows of at least one individual who has no use for "satanic" rock and roll. As many critics of rock do, they may listen to country music instead. Let me point out a few things about that genre of music. Country music very often features an "animalistic jungle beat" like the beat rock and roll is often criticized for. The lyrics glorify promiscuous sex in the form of fornication and adultery. These songs also promote alcoholic consumption through glorification of a quaint practice called "honky tonking." A recent hit, Attitude Adjustment, told the story of a man who won his arguments by beating his opponents with a tire iron. . I don't like country music. I think a good case can be made against its morality. Does this mean I ought to start a crusade against the works of Hank Williams Jr.? Or better yet, let's just burn all the Elvis records and movies. We all know what sort of really moral life he lived don't we? My point? A legal distinction needs to be made between the various mediums that convey obscenity. Just try to corrupt a three year old kid by showing him the sentence "Dave ran his hand down Sheila's milky thigh." You'll have much better luck showing him a picture or movie of Dave running his hand down Sheila's milky thigh. Even a nine year old who can read pretty well isn't going to understand what he's reading when shown a copy of Camel Countess. He might have terrible giggle fits because he recognizes about one fifth of the bad words, but he prob­ ably won't have any idea of what's going on in the story. I might be more in favor of the obscenity law if it was more difficult to prosecute written obscenity. I'd also like to see a distinction made for creative works done for clearly artistic purposes; not only would it help protect artists, but we might see a rise in the quality of the pornography that was left. How many times have you driven, biked, or walked by the white house beside Justice Hall on River Street, better known as the Dougherty house, and said to yourself: "I wonder what they (the university) use that for?" The stately white home has been stan­ ding for years and many students wonder about its purpose. Bob Snead, Vice-Chancellor of Development explained the house is not presently being used and no one at this point is ready to make a definite decision about the house. In the past, there has been talk of using the Dougherty house as a visitor informa­ tion center, for additional office space, and as an alumni house and faculty club. Renovation of the house has been put on hold after it was discovered the structure is infested with termites. According to Snead, the university is faced with several dilemmas concerning the property. First, the State of North Carolina will not provide money for the renovation and preservation of the Dougherty house, leaving ASU to rely on private donations. Also, the home is situated on what Snead calls a "prime building site". Annie Dougherty Rufty is the daughter of Dauphin Disco Dougherty, the first treasurer and business manager of Appalachian Academy and Appalachian Training School. Mrs. Rufty was bom in the Dougherty house and lived there until 1984 when she moved to her home on Stadium Drive. The Dougherty house was sold to the university in 1983.

Dougherty as being dedicated to education and said of her uncle, "B.B. was on call all the time. He felt so responsible for everything to do with the school." "Our yard went to the middle of River Street," reminisced Mrs. Rufty, who remembers her home as a "very public place all the time. It was a 1 regular farm with garden, chickens and cows." "Tweetsie Railroad ran in front o the house and made round trips tc Johnson City, Tennessee," recallec Mrs. Rufty. See HOUSE Page! Students needed to serve By ERIN K. MASON Appalachian Staff Writer Social agencies throughout the community are in dire need of volunteer assistance; students realize they have spare time and want something worth­ while to concentrate their time and talents. The solution to both problems is simple now—the Student Service-Learning Project on campus is placing students in the community where they can give and get the most for their ef­ forts. The program, which was formed this year, provides student volunteers to work with low income services involved with such things as helping pregnant teens, Big Brother, Big Sister, Program on Aging, building houses and varied other projects. The student will go through training sessions before they are placed and possibly more training at the agency with which they work. The volunteers need no skills or particular educational background, in fact, the skills learned is one of the benefits students may find. Debbie Atkinson, Director, explained, "The community is already excited about this. We're getting the students involved in the community where the good things students do can be seen. Lots of students want to do volunteer work or learn a skill and don't know where to go." That's what this Sociology/Social Work Department Project is all about. Dr. John Turner who wrote the grant formed an advisory committee with area agencies to find out what need there was for a volunteer project. The committee will continue to meet as the program progresses. The goal of the project is to recruit, screen, train and place sixty student volunteers this semester "I don't think we'll have any trouble," Atkinson said. "Students have more i time than they think and have so much to give. The students benefit in that one is more likely to graduate if they have been involved in volunteer work." The training session aides in this aspect, giving volunteers communication skills and j bjf teaching dependability. The mandatory training session will be held September 26 from 9:30-4:00 and will include a discussion of poverty; causes and consequences, skills basic to I any job, the expectations of the program. "We plan to have a good time, too," Atkinson said. Once the studetns are placed the placement office will remain in contact to ensure that both volunteer and agency are satisfied. There will also be in-service get togethers so students can meet other volunteers. Students with any talent or skill,, or who want to learn one are needed for the project. They should call the project at 262-2764 or come by the office which is located in the ground floor of Chapel Wilson office 6-E within the next couple of weeks to give time for screening before the training session on September 26.! Atkinson added that people are available to come and talk to clubs or classes, and explain the project. The office wants to get the word out to as manyi students as possible because, as Atkinson said, "There isn't a student on this campus who doesn't have something to offer these agencies. Adult Student Network supports 25 and older groupof student: By BECKY HIGBEE Appalachian Staff Writer Betty Skrobialowski is an energetic full-time ASU undergraduate student. She is seeking a four year degree in accounting while working at the computer lab in Whitener Hall. Skrobialowski, 29, commutes from Lenoir and is the ! Chairperson of the Board for the Adult Student Network. ; The Adult Student Network is a support club for ; students who are 25 or older. The club used to be called the • .Non-Traditional Students Association, but Betty felt that ''doesn't fully describe what we are." The club is open to older undergraduate and graduate students, and younger students are also welcome to join. Skrobialowski said that there are at least 740 older students on campus not including graduate students. "When the older students come to the university, especially their first semester, they are suddenly surround­ ed by a whole lot of young people. Some don't know how to handle it. They're scared by all the younger students. They are intimidated by their youth and energy," Skrobialowski said. Many of the clubs' members have been married and out in the world for a while. "They're coming back to school because they know what they want, they know their goals. For some, school is a new experience. They are awed by the fact that these 18 and 19 year olds know what they want in life, and the older students have experienced life and still don't know what they want," Skrobialowski said. The first group was started in 1986 by Bille Gayle Glunt an undergraduate student who was older than the rest of the students. She felt "lost" and thought she didn't fit in. Glunt thought that other older students felt the same way, so she saw the need to have a support group on campus. The support group helps in many ways. Many adult students want and need to be around people their own age. The group provides an escape for the older students who have different views from the younger ones, making it hard to identify with them. The group also exists to teach others, including the younger students, about career goals and how to achieve them. One thing the club is doing right now is "getting information from the members who have been in various career fields and giving them to Career and Planning. This gives the members an opportunity to become more involved with the university," according to Skrobialowski. Misery reflects life Students get credit for fun By KELLY L. JOHNSTON Appalachian Staff Writer Are you, like many students, hav­ ing problems gaining hours and ex­ perience in the study of your major? There may be a solution to this dilem­ ma. Many departments at ASU are offering credit hours through ex­ perience. This "hands on" approach is being taken by WASU, the theater and speech activities. The requirements for being in one of these programs are few. No previous experience is necessary, only th^e will to learn is needed.

Appalachian Slaff Writer Misery, Stephen King's latest novel, was intended to be the book that wou issue Richard Bachman, King's nom de guerre, into bestsellerdom. Had Bachman not died an untimely death in early 1985, Misery would ha unequivocally exposed him for what he was: Stephen King. This novel marks a return to the early works that earned him a "brai name" status. It is didactic, funny, scary, and autobiographical—perhaps his mc autobiographical work since The Body, a novella that appears in Differe Seasons. The emphasis here, however, is on adult fears and experiences and the pro lems that come with being a successful writer. The plot is something King dreamed up—literally. It is derived from a rect ring nightmare. He describes the dream in Danse Macabre in which a madwoman "all gri hair and crazed eyes, raving and wielding a meat-ax," hunts for him as types. This apparition has become Annie Wilkes, a homicidal psycho who giv Robert Bloch the chills.

A hot breeze stirred the trees, and the air was humid and thick. A dry and dusty dirt road cut through the forest. Birds whistled their calls as they roosted in the trees. Suddenly the sound of hoofbeats stirred the birds into flight. Seconds later, the source of the noise came into view. The lathered horse carried a hot and weary rider. Princess Melissa Kalon, first in line to inherit the throne, was trying to get home. Melissa urged her mount on. "I have to get out of this forest before sunset," she kept telling herself, "I just have to!" But she also knew the horse couldn't take much more. Reluc­ tantly, she slowed the steed to a walk allowing him rest. Melissa's emerald green eyes scanned the thick foliage, and she jumped at every sound. "It is fine," she told herself, "nothing will harm me." Her nerves were stretched tight. She tossed her long, raven biack hair out of her eyes as she looked around. Suddenly, she thought of heY father. The King objected strongly when Melissa asked permission to attend the Summer Fair alone. The Princess pointed out she was now nineteen years old,> and it was time for her to go piaces by herself. "Surely you don't mean completely alone?" her father asked. "Yes, father," she answered, "completely. No guards, attendants or servants. I am old enough to take care of myself, Sire." The King finally agreed, but only on the condition that she came back' before dark. He especially wanted her out of Demon's Forest before sunset.' Melissa promised to be back early. »„>1 The Princess was very excited about going to the Fair alone. She hurriedly: dressed in her prettiest summer gown and her finest jewelry. As she was leav­ ing, her father reminded her of her promise. Melissa hugged the King, and mounted her horse. It had been a wonderful day! The fair was a marvelous event. Melissa saw many wonderful things, and the people were overjoyed when they discovered their Princess decided to attend the fair. Everyone had been so nice, and time was flying by. Melissa stayed longer than she intended and now she must hurry. J he horse was winded, but kept up a steady pace as the Princess prodded him on. It was so strange, here, in the gathering darkness, every scary story she had heard about the forest was coming back to her. People disappeared in this forest, but Melissa had never given much thought to the wild stories of Trolls and Monsters. Even the Gorks were now extinct, and her father's knights kept the Kingdom peaceful. Still, there could be something out here, something terrible. Melissa spurred her steed. The sun began the disappear as the Princess arrived at the edge of Demon's Forest. She stopped her mount and looked into the distance. There stood Northhaven Castle, home. Melissa sighed. Suddenly, a terrible howl broke the stillness of the evening. Melissa turned to look and emitted a scream. A pack of Demon Wolves had appeared, charg­ ing at her. Red eyes glowed, grey fur bristled, and razor sharp claws dug into the ground as the Demon Wolves raced towards her. The girl urged her mount forward, but wolves already blocked her path. The horse reared as the wolves advanced, throwing the princess. She hit the ground hard, knocking the breath from her. Stunned, she tried to get up, but two wolves jumped ner. Melissa1 felt claws rake her back as she struggled to rise. Intense pain shot through her body as one of the wolves bit her left calf, immediately bringing blood. She tried to push the wolves away, but more joined the attack. Melissa's beautiful face twisted in pain as the wolves swarmed over her. She screamed, her voice mixing with howling wolves. Hours later, the edge of Demon's Forest was quiet. The road to Northhaven Castle was empty, and, by morning light a King's messenger informed the subjects another disappearance had taken place. tinually churns out bestseller after bestseller is uhat he knows what we like to see: misery.

At fullback, the Mountaineers are wealthy with talent in senior Doug Beaty and junior Kenny Dawson. Returning flankers Sam Wesley and Wardell Jefferson will carry most of the pass-catching load for the Apps while three-year letterman Steve Wilkes handles the tight end duties. The only real question mark on the defensive side of the football is in the secondary where the Mountaineers must replace two quality cornerbacks. "Anytime you lose two corners who get looked at in the NFL, you have problems," Woods said. Quincy Bethea, Chuck Hill, and Keith Collins will carry most of the load at corner. Leonard Lee, who had 58 tackles and 10 deflected passes a year ago, and Mark Moore will share the free safety assignment. The Apps defensive line may be the best in the Southern Conference.

The third word is synonymous with goal scoring in the sport of soccer. This year's edition of ASU soccer appears ready to improve its offensive capabilities after acquiring some quicker athletes.

As the student population expands, and more freshmen bring cars with them, parking lots are becoming increasingly congested. There are simply not enough parking spaces for all of the students wishing to park on campus. The short range problem can be easily solved. Students who are parking illegally need to be aware of the inconvenience they are creating for those who have paid to park in certain areas. The lack of available space is driving legal parkers to park in illegal spots, unfairly costing them parking tickets. Students have complained for years about the revenue Security generates from parking tickets. It seems ironic that so many students violate the parking rules, forcing themselves and others to contribute to the ticket distribution. Car-pooling is another possible solution that would not only reduce the number of cars on campus, but might also improve the growing traffic problem in Boone. Security should consider a special reduced price car-pooling sticker or create a supervised car-pooling lot to en­ courage ride-sharing. Long range yet more expensive solutions also need to be considered. New parking spaces must be developed. Building new lots is the most obvious and inexpensive way to create additional spaces, but also brings geological concerns about flood zones into the issue. It seems the only recourse is for the university to begin to budget for parking decks. The parking problem will not improve on its own. Definitive action must be taken. Parking decks may not be the least expensive or the most aesthetic solution—but from a practical and geological point of view it is one worthy of strong consideration by the administration and students alike. Paper does its job The purpose of The Appalachian is two-fold. One purpose is to act as a learning lab for students to obtain practical experience in jour­ nalism, photo-journalism, graphics and sales. The second purpose, but by no means the less important, is to inform the campus and community about university-related issues. To fulfill this responsibility in the most complete manner possible, The Appalachian runs the "Opinion Page" in each issue. This section offers every opinion on campus and in town the oppor­ tunity to be heard, whether or not those opinions are based on facts. The writers who work for the fraper, however, are not permitted to write editorials without having researched background facts. The best editorials are those with both emotional and factual appeals. These are the kinds of commentary articles The Appalachian strives for. It is important that every person with an opinion has the opportunity to be heard. If, at anytime an idea is being sufficiently expressed, letters to the editor are welcome. The "Opinion Page" should offer new perspectives on a variety of issues. Use the page to help form or express thoughts. But most of all, recognize that all opinions are valid, whether or not any group or individual finds them agreeable. Radio: believe it, why not? With election year only months away, it is not sur­ prising that radio and television advertisements have already begun. Running for some unspecified spot within the state legislature this year, a rather unusual candidate made his bid for political fame on radio stations throughout the triangle-triad area. Gene Jenkins (or "Jean Genkins," since his radio ads always say "...Jean with a 'j' and Genkins with a 'g') has advocated such lunatic proposals as abolishing all left turns at intersections and pet tax. Genkins is not a real person, however. Radio broadcasters announced last week that Genkins was By GREY DRUM Appalachian Staff Writer Q. Why did the student cross the road? A. Because he was tired of life and wanted to commit suicide in a way that would not fail. For two years now I have had the pleasure of living off campus and walking to class. It is great in the fall; the leaves are changing, and there is that crispness in the air that means soon you'll be up to your (whatever) in snow. In the spring, the flowers are starting to grow and the snow is beginning to thaw. That's great too, if you don't mind wet feet. Walking is great except for the idiot YEAH r/ WHAT'S HE POINO F \ ,—^ HE'S A STRIPPER 7 1 I P 1 Just as Orson Welles proved it in 1939, Genkins" has shown the citizehs of 1987 what r £di the radio has to persuade. Most journalists3011 broadcasters, I hope, are aware of their respondr<l ty, the staff of the grocery store tabloids except More importantly, the listening, watching and ^ .

In August drivers, and I don't mean the ones from Florida. Yes, everyday, goodold ASU students are idiot drivers, especially when they reach either River Street or Howard Street. For the uninformed, River Street runs from Hardee's past Kerr Scott Hall past the Duck Pond and finally past Walker Hall. Crossing the street at the Duck Pond is no problem. The University has given us the tunnels. (No, they didn't put the tunnels there just for people to paint!) But you take your life in your own hands if you try to cross at either Walker or Kerr Scott Hall. Drivers, those white lines you see running across the road are pedestrian walkways, not target areas. The sign above the walkway reads By AL HUMAN Appalachian Staff University In the coverage of the kidnapping of ABC reporter Charles Glass, ABC of­ ficials were correct in saying that Glass' claims of having CIA connections shouldn't be trusted, since he made the claim under duress of his captors. Yet ABC and others in the news media take Soviet citizens at their word when they claim that the USSR is moving towards 'openness,' when those Soviet citizens face the duress of firing squads, labor camps, barbed wire, and psychiatric wards if they say otherwise. Now why is that? The media is justified in condemning the Iran 'arms-for-hostages' deal made by the executive branch without approval from Congress. Yet another such deal was made by the executive branch without Congressional approval in which the executive branch gave up our arms in exchange for an enemy, not blowing us away. This latter deal was known as SALT II and the media praised it. Now why is that? )c t SI. YIELD TO PEDESTRIANS. That means stop for the person who is walking across the road, not see how thin you can spread one across the pavement. Howard Street is the road behind the campus post office. There are two stop signs at either end, yet people act as if it's the expressway around New York. There is a blind hill right as you get to the post office with apartments on one side. It has amazed me that someone has not ended up in my manager's living room swerving to miss someone. People park in the road to run into the post office, on both sides of the road, leaving less than one lane of pavement to drive on. Yet people come flying over the »H hill, doing well over the speed M1*' which is well over any intellijfhi speed for that area. xtf Now don't get me wrong. Ihave01 complaints about people parkingr the road, which means they havt'v^ parked in,my parking space. (If do and I find the car: IT WILL TOWED!) My only suggestion ist if you must travel any of these roE during normal class hours: , SLOW IT DOWN BEFORE YO KILL SOMEBODY. Also, if it has been rainin over towards the center of the is a real pain to go to class soa because some driver is a jerk B Cybil Sheppard says she knows people that don't eat beef and that sheqi frankly "just doesn't trust them." Yet she entrusts Bruce Willis with her bo< safety and integrity in every episode of Moonlighting when the man is reckless in real life as he is on TV. Now why is that? ArmorAll, that great white stuff for polishing auto upholstery, claims to pure, natural, and non-toxic. Yet, ominous as it is, they don't have it listed the label what it contains. Now why is THAT?? Boone residents often curse developers from out-of-town and out-of-s who come in and make what they call "eyesores." Yet, if you drive on som« the backroads of Watauga, you will find native people sullying their turfs old broken-down cars, refrigerators, freezer units, old stoves and even dui ings from the kitchen-stuff that is not merely gross to the eye, but positiv hazardous to human health, harboring rats and heaven knows what else. Yet one says anything about these. Now why is that? Just thought I'd ask. Refuting freshman stereotypes By JAMES F.

Po c #i>tl\ A Tff ^ f SOW' Appalachian, this year's freshman class is the highest quality of any class to enter ASU. The average S.A.T. scores of this year's freshmen are over 25 points higher than the average of the freshmen last year. If this is the case, then why are the freshmen treated like kindergarten drop-outs? They are constantly sub­ jected to meetings and activities that are all saying basically the same thing. I have attended three hall meetings and every one gave us the same songand-dance. In high school, students are sub­ jected to the same thing. An­ nouncements are read three times a day, five days a week. The ad­ ministration of the high schools might tell you that this is so everyone will get a chance to hear important news. The truth is, high school is a perfect example of the bell curve. There are a few highly intelligent students, a few special education cases and a majority of average students. This means the announcements are read often so the slower students will remember them. In the university system, however, an entire campus is made up of better than average students. It therefore makes no sense for those students to be subjected to a tidal wave of redun­ dant information. The students are supposed to be responsible, so why not treat them as such? A group of freshmen (or any other class for that matter) should be told something only once. Then, if some­ one has any questions or forgets what he or she was told then it is up to them to find someone who knows and find out. After all the students are suppos­ ed to be intelligent enough to ask for help when it is needed. Granted, the transition from school to college is a large one. students may sometimes feel ( whelmed by all the new ideas policies they have to adapt to. Thi however, the reason to start them by treating them responsibly resourceful students will make the justment and overcome the har part. If the students are stai "easy" then they become spoiled the first time they are hit by responsibility they will be lost. Refusing to "spoil" student itially may also serve as a weeding process. The ones who will not the responsibility will be spotted possibly gotten rid of early, leaves only people who want to and are willing to work. The res would be a better learning atmospl1 for everyone. Refuse fast becoming major problem To the Editor: 1 am somewnat disturbed about a situation that has arisen on our fine campus.

Continued from Page 8 add the local ridge law to that list and stay in the same vein of reason­ ing. In his words, "all of this has been done, implicitly or explicitly, to en­ force someone's personal, moral, and/or aesthetic values on us." Has it? To a certain extent, yes; but seen in a different light than the one shed in his article, we come to different conclusions. Let us consider a few points. One, Mr. Human contends that no government has the right to coerce an individual into doing something for "their own good," and that any such law that would enable the government to do such, as would be the case with these moralistic laws, would be illegitimate. Okay. Now, however, under such an assumption such laws as those that require buildings to meet a building code, require mandatory attendance for school children as well as innoculations would fall under the same categories, and would as well be considered illegitimate. Sound foolish? Agreed. Why then are those examples mentioned in the article considered controversial victimless crimes when the latter, which are of the same nature, aren't even men­ tioned? Laws that reflect moral issues do so because society has placed a greater emphasis on their impor­ tance. In this instance I am referring to the concept Mr. Human calls the absoluteness of morality. Which morals are incorporated into law? Those that society has to deal with in a socially harmful fashion most often. Finally, we move on to a discus- ' sion of this idea of demonstrative moral absoluteness which Mr. Human has advanced. "And ab­ solute morality is a demonstrable one,: he states, and I agree. He fur­ ther adds, however, "if morality is demonstrable, what need is there for coercing its acceptance?" This is where the problem lies. My contention is that the moral issues are being incorporated into our legal system simply because such behavior is not being passed down from one generation to another; not because it cannot be passed down. In short, legislated morality can be seen as an attempt to "pick up the slack" in the society, filling in the gaps left by declining institutions such as the family and religion.. primary instruments of moral in­ structions. Just food for thought Al. Thanks. Sincerely, David E. Law ASU Box 5413 I believe that the answer to that question is a concept that wasn't considered in Mr. Human's article; the concept of social harm, which is my second point. In a society such as ours, laws are enacted and enforced in an attempt to balance an individual's rights with those rights of the persons around them, namely society. It is when the actions of a particular citizen or group of citizens present a harm to society that laws are enacted to regulate that threat. For instance: DWI laws, mandatory seatbelt laws, attempts at regulating handguns, and even smoking in the workplace. Moralistic laws then, when seen in this light, are in truth, reactions of society to actions which are detrimental to that society and its members. Thus in a similar way, government can force members of society into military service, and such a practice does not violate our constitution. Moving on, we get to my third point; the morality of laws. Briefly, it is my contention that laws, by their very nature.. considering their purpose.. effect and to an extent determine what is acceptable behavior in our society. It is not a question of whether laws are based on morality, but rather, is morality reflected in them? Of course it is.

Previously, students went to the identification center in food services and waited to have their cards validated. This was done by placing stickers on the cards denoting full or part-time status. Student's meal plans were then entered into the food services computer. "With the new system, students who have prepaid or who have scholarship passes are ready to go," Director of Food Services Ron Dubberly said. All the data is entered into the computer before students come back for the semester. "If students pay after the due date for tuition, they still have to take their validated receipts by the Food Services Office," Dubberly said. The Athletic Department is also using the new system. The cards can be used at the Athletic Ticket Office to buy guest tickets for games, and students will need their electronically validated cards for admittance into different athletic events. "In the past students have thrown their cards over the gate for their friends to use," Dubberly said. "It's not fair for the students who have paid the fees." If a card has already been used, the card reader will deny access to the game. The Infirmary is using the cards to tell if students paid their health fees. They can also tell if the cards are valid and how many times students visit the Infir­ mary in a semester. Dubberly said there have been no major problems with the new system other than a little confusion over how students get their cards validated. "The most obvious advantage," Dubberly said, "Is that the new system saves students from standing in line. "It protects areas like the Infirmary, the Athletic Department, and Student Affairs in assuring that students who pay for services get them. "This means extra revenue for the departments, since more people will have to pay for the services. This means student fees may not go up as drastically." By next fall, the university hopes to include an Appalachian Express Account on the system. This account would allow students who prepay to use the card for purchases in any place on campus which joins the system, such as the bookstore. Appalachian Photo by Erin K.

Construction to begin in 1988 New business college scheduled By BECKY HIGBEE Appalachian Staff Writer Close to $10 million has been ap­ propriated to ASU by the NC General Assembly for a new College of Business building and computer center. The money will be used for the design, furnishings and construction of a bigger building. The College of Business is housed in Walker Hall, which was 100 per cent occupied when it opened in 1976. College of Business Dean, Dr. Paul J. Combs, said the main problem with Walker is it is too small. "We have business classes all over the campus because there is not enough class room in Walker," Combs said. The new building is expected to be 123,000 square feet, whereas Walker is only 52,000 feet. "We have business classes all over the campus because there is not enough classrooms in Walker." Dr. Paul J. Combs The building is being designed by JN Pease and associates of Charlotte. Construction is expected to start on January 1, 1988, and the building is expected to be completed 18 months later. The building has been in plan­ ning for the past two years. The four-story building will be at the western end of campus in the area of Howard Street and Appalachian Street. Part of Appalachian Street will be re-routed around the new building. Buildings on the construction site, such as the Outdoor Adventure Pro­ gram, the Gragg House and the Col­ lege of Business annex will be remov­ ed. Combs said the Board of Trustees will decide later on a name for the building. Election begins O i.

Bennett said. Quality of new freshmen class rises despite declining high school graduates By J. SHAVER Appalachian Staff Writer The quality of the freshman class has risen this year. Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs, Dr. Harvey Durham, said the increase in quality was because of ASU's faculty and strong academic program. In a faculty meeting on August 17, Durham said that this year's 7219 applica­ tions to ASU, were up 14 percent from last year. 2000 freshmen were accepted into ASU for the 1987-88 academic year. That number was kept 247 lower than the 1986 figure to reduce class sizes. The SAT scores of the high school students applying for admission have risen also, Durham said. The average SAT score for incoming freshmen is 933 this year. Last year's average was 904, a difference of 29 points. ASU is experiencing a growth of its popularity. "It just has to do with the overall reputation of the university. It's not something that has happened overnight. Appalachian has always been a good school, and its reputation has been building for some time—but some people are just beginning to notice," Durham said. Durham said, "a good faculty is the basis of ASU's success." "The faculty is the basis for the quality of any university. That's not to denigrate any other division at ASU, but the faculty is the foundation on which a university operates." The university is still making improvements. ASU has created 35 new faculty positions, most of which will go towards decreasing the size of freshman classes. Of these new positions, 31 are in the College of Fine and Applied Arts and the College of Arts and Science. Some of the new positions were used to reduce the number of part-time faculty positions. ASU had 94 part-time faculty posi­ tions last year. Durham said a freshman seminar is being offered to more than 200 entering students this fall. The same course originated last fall as an experiment with 80 students. The goals of the course include improving understanding and appreciation of higher education, focusing on a liberal education; introducing students to the history and mission of ASU; helping students develop their own educational and career goals; improving knowledge of campus resources; and promoting awareness of cultural events at ASU. The course originated two years ago out of a desire to improve retention of students. Some faculty members have expressed that students would be more Tax changes mean fewer exemptions for students comfortable and therefore more likely to stay if they were more aware of the resources available to them. Durham has started a Task Force on Education. Starting last spring, the 13 members of the task force have been going over an institutional goals inventory, a list of 109 goals, among which are providing a high standard of instruction, and encouraging students to uphold high stan­ dards. The task force is using the inventory as a guide to help identify goals for ASU. Durham says that the committee should have finished the list, and in the spring will decide what sort of activities will bring ASU to its goals. Next fall, the task force plans to measure the success of the programs. As for the freshmen themselves, they often complain that their money goes a lot faster than they thought it would. They also express bewilderment at finding themselves lowerclassmen again. However, many freshmen think the teachers and students are quite friendly. Most say that they are happy with their choice and look forward to a long and successful academic career at ASU. Ballenger slated to speak By MATT HAWKINS Many students with summer or part-time jobs can no longer claim ex­ emption from federal income tax withholding, according to the Internal Revenue Service. Beginning in 1987, any stu­ dent who may be claimed os a dependent on a parent's return is not entitl­ ed to a personal exemption on his or her own return. Because of tax law changes made by the Tax Reform Act of 1986, students who are claimed as dependents on their parents' or another person's tax return cannot claim exemption from withholding for 1987. If students have any unearned in­ come, such as interest on savings, and their wages plus this unearned income will be more than $500 for the year, there is no exemption. Many students who had to pay no tax in the past will have to pay tax for 1987, and so cannot be exempt from withholding, because of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, according to IRS. However, students whose wages for the year are $2,540 or less and who have no unearned income generally will be exempt from withholding. The IRS said students can claim ex­ emption from tax withholding on the W-4 Form or W-4A, "Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate," only if last year they had to pay no federal income tax and this year they expect to have to pay no federal in­ come tax. If exempt status is claimed, it re­ mains in effect until Feb 15 of the next year. If students have any unearned income, such as interest on savings, and their wages plus this unearned income will be more than $500 for the year, there is no exemption. Generally, students not exempt from withholding should claim one withholding allowance if they have Aptmhrchijui Newt Editor only one job at a time. Or, if they need or want more tax withheld, they should claim zero allowances. Beginning in 1987, any student who may be claimed as a dependent on a parent's return is not entitled to a per­ sonal exemption on his or her own return. Also, the standard deduction for an individual who can be claimed as a dependent on another taxpayer's return is limited to the greater of: $500 or the individual's earned in­ come, but not more than the allow­ able standard deduction ($2,450). Generally, if the student's total in­ come is greater than his or her stan­ dard deduction, the student will have to file a 1987 tax return and will have a tax liability.

The signer of tjiejetter said the antidote to the problem was to give money to the College^Republicans. The grdups that supposedly received the money, as well as the U$ State Department, deny Libya has funneled money to any American college groups. "It's lamentable that the Right has to resort to lies to discredit what our organization is about," Ann Woerhle of Witness for Peace said. Witness for Peace is one of the groups identified in the letter as opposing US policy in Cen­ tral America. Bill Pierce of the US State Department said there's no evidence Khadafy donated money to leftist college groups. After checking his records, current College Republicans' Chairman Stockton Reeves said he is unsure the group would officially claim ownership of the let­ ter. The letter, stamped "Confidential Report," informs readers that Nicaraguan rebels attempting to overthrow that country's Sandinista government are illequipped, demoralized and sickly, but continue to fight bravely against over­ whelming odds. The letter also reads that if the rebels, known as the Contras, fail, communism will spread through Central America to the United States. Groups such as Witness for Peace and CISPES (Committee in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador), the letter states, are working to disrupt U.S. cam­ puses "like they did during Vietnam," and hope to "turn innocent young students away from their parents and grandparents." The letter is signed by David Miner, the College Republican's former na­ tional chairman, now the political director of the North Carolina Jack Kemp for President campaign. Miner admits writing the letter, but refused to comment. His successor, Reeves, a University of Florida student, at first said the letter "was one of our more successful fundraisers," though he would not say how much money it attracted, how many letters were mailed, or to whom they were sent. "I'm not in a position to say," Reeves said. Reeves said he didn't know where Miner got his information, "but if David put it in the letter, then I know it's true," he said. In a subsequent interview, Reeves said the letter was not written by the CRNC. "It doesn't sound like our style. We're more conservative, and this sounds like such a wild play," Reeves said. "I don't know what happened under David (Miner's tenure)," he added. The groups Miner named blasted the letter. "We've been publicly accused of having ties to Khadafy, the PLO, the IRA, you name it," Woerhle said. "It's not true. These are just attempts to discredit our group." "This is not the first time the Right has fabricated a story," CISPES' na­ tional coordinator Angela Sanbrano said. "It legitimizes what they say by get­ ting them a lot of publicity they later use for fundraising." The Friends of the Democratic Center in Central America group was offend­ ed by the letter. Group President Penn Kemble said the group supports limited US aid to the Contras, but believes US assistance to the Contras must be tied to civilian con­ trol over the rebel military, greater respect for human rights and diplomatic ef­ forts to end the Nicaraguan war. "We're not aligned with these groups," Kemble said. "We've never received funds from foreign forces of any kind. We wouldn't take money from Libya." Kemble said allegations that the group does receive funds "are just plain stupid. It's a stupid mistake, just incompetence." "When they see these things, people get offended. Students say 'I'm no dupe, I'm no dummy. Do they really believe CISPES can turn me against my mother or grandmother?" "I don't worry so much about the public impact," Woerhle said. "The more important impact is in the White House." Woerhle said College Republicans have close ties to White House aides and conservative legislators, and "supply key information to some congressmen." "I don't think people really take their ranting and raving seriously," she add­ ed. New town mall will be constructed on 421 By MATT HAWKINS Appalacklaa News Editor A new shopping mall is being con­ structed for the town of Boone on Highway 421. Vannoy Construction of West Jef­ ferson is the general contractor for the job which began last March. Completion of the project is "targeted for sometime in February. Among the businesses to be includ­ ed in the new project are Rose's department store, Lowes Foods, a drug store and 18 other shops owned and operated by local merchants. The New Market Centre, as the mall is named, is owned by K & B Properties of Winston-Salem. K & B representative Woody Bunting said the project will cost an estimated $7,000,000. "We had tried to get a site along 321 and 105, but it didn't work out." The site is located near Toyota of Boone and covers 19 acres of land. Grading Superintendent Larry Hash said the Old Homestead restaurant and two barns had to be moved. "We had tried to get the property sold, but could find no one who would buy it. We then had to burn it down," Hash said. Mark Vannoy of Vannoy Construc­ tion said the center's parking area would accomodate about 500 spaces. "There will be two exit and en­ trance openings to the parking area," Appalachian Photo Boone's New Market Centre Vannoy said. "The entire building covers an area of about 140,000 square feet. The Roses store covers 54,000 of this." Vannoy said he hopes to complete the outer shell of the building by the end of December before snow weather comes. "All the floors under the roof should be paved out by December. We had also called the cable company to come and take out a cable line and pole that's been here since we started," Vannoy said. The occupants of the various local shops for the center have not been decided. An employee from K & B by Rich Koon Properties said there should be a con­ siderable amount of job openings depending on each business's need. Other contributing builders of the New Market Centre are Regan Roof­ ing of Winston-Salem, Imperial Plumbing of Mountain City, Ten­ nessee and Coe Realty of Boone.

Educators, of course, sometimes use the summers to resolve issues still burning since the previous term while students are gone and, presumably, political pressures are lower. Summer, 1987, was no exception. While protest leaders said they were disappointed in turnouts at rallies at Indiana, Utah and Penn State, for instance, a number of campuses—the universities of Houston, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Stanford and Smith, among others—sold off all or part of their holdings in firms that do business in South Africa. | "Schools announce divestitures over the summer when people are away, and people aren't there to challenge them," Josh Nessen of the American Committee on Africa said, which helps organize anti-apartheid rallies in the US. Still other kinds of national college news broke as a kind of denouement to 1986-87's events. Amy Carter, daughter of former President Jimmy Carter and the center of a celebrated spring trial for joining an anti-Central Intelligence Agency sit-in, was suspended by Brown University for failing to keep up her grades. On the other side of the political spectrum Accuracy in Academia, formed in 1985 to identify "liberal" and "Marxist" professors by asking students to write reports about them, agreed to retract an allegation that the Spartacist League—a Marxist group—encouraged "the killing of police officers." More significant news—events and phenomena that affect all students—broke this summer, too. Student Aid US Secretary of Education William Bennett, long an advocate of cutting federal student aid programs by as much as 45 percent, announced he would seek more modest cuts in the future. Bennett, explained Dept. of Educa­ tion Undersecretary Bruce Carnes, feared his cutback proposals pro­ voked hostility that, in turn, turned Congress off to his efforts to alter campus coursework, tame tuition increases and chase down loan defaulters. The Reagan administration will send its next education budget pro­ posal to Congress in January, 1988. The change may be too late for some. In June, the American Association of Community and Junior Colleges reported that federal support for twoyear colleges dropped by 16.9 percent from fall, 1985 to fall, 1986. Moreover, about 40 percent of the nation's undergraduate students and 50 percent of its graduate students may lose all or part of their eligibility for student loans this fall estimated head of the University of Texas at Austin's aid office, Michael Novak. Racial Tensions Trying to prevent another round of the startlingly widespread racial in­ cidents that plagued the universities of Michigan, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, California at Los Angeles, Georgia and Tufts, among about a dozen other campuses last spring, a group of college presidents promised to investigate just what is causing the tensions. The Washington, D.C.-based American Council on Education said it would release its findings this fall. Northampton (Mass.) Judge Alvertus J. Morse sentenced seven white University of MassachusettsAmherst students to undergo counsel­ ing for "race sensitivity" and perform some "community service" as punishment for beating a black University of Massachusetts student in October, 1986. Drugs on Campus The cocaine-related death of University of Maryland basketball star Len Bias last year inspired tougher drug policies at scores of campuses. More than 1,000 colleges failed to give the US Dept. of Educa­ tion proof they had some sort of drug prevention program in place by the deadline of June 15, 1987. Theoretically, any college that missed the deadline would make their students ineligible to get federal stu­ dent aid this fall. Stanford University officially asked the National Collegiate Athletic Association to excuse it from making its athletes take tests proving they're not using illicit drugs, while an anonymous University of Washington athlete threatened to sue if she was forced to join a drug-testing program. Still, University of Tennessee assis­ tant basketball coach Bill Brown resigned two days after Sacramento, California police arrested him on cocaine possession charges. Nancy Reagan chastised the June meeting of the National High School Athletic Coaches Association in New Orleans for ignoring student drug problems, University of Florida officials said student Edward Kellie Quest died of taking too many nitrous oxide cannisters called "whippets." Women on Campus Women still hold lower-level, lower paying jobs than men in college classrooms, the Women's Research and Education Institute charged in July. At the current rate of increase, there won't be as many female college presidents as male presidents until the year 2070, the group calculated. In June, New Jersey ordered Princeton's all-male "eating clubs" to admit women, while two University of Arizona female students sued the Bobcats, an all-male honorary socie­ ty, for refusing to admit them last fall. Elsewhere, the first male students ever to enroll at Seton Hill College in Greensburg, Pa., registered for classes this summer, while the board of all-female Wheaton College in Norton, Mass., overcame loud student opposition and voted to admit men to the campus starting in fall term, 1988.

Kristy Becker, a Hotel and Restaurant Management major, spent her three month vaca­ tion as an intern at Capitol Tokyu Hotel in Tokyo, Japan. Her parents live in Tokyo and her father suggested that Kristy get a career-related intern­ ship there. He proceeded to set one up for her. The hotel had foreign interns from Hawaii, Australia, and other places around the world. The Capitol Toyku Hotel is part of a chain of 19 hotels around Japan. It is located in the center of Tokyo and since it is near the Diet (the law­ making body of Japan), most of the guests are foreigners. Only 40 percent were Japanese. Kristy said compared to Japanese standards, the hotel is small. It only has 479 rooms, whereas other Japanese hotels have 800. Kristy is from Cary, North Carolina, and switched her major from Accounting. She said that accounting was not what she wanted to do. Kristy said that she likes to "work with people, and you meet a lot of people in the hotel and restaurant industry." Although Kristy was provided a uniform and a transportation allowance to ride the subway to and from work, Kristy walked most of the time because the hotel was within walking distance. Kristy was given free duty meals to eat in the hotel's restuarants. There was a variety of foods to choose from, including Western food. "Whenver there was something Japanese to choose from, everyone wanted me to try it. They would be offended if I didn't," Kristy said. She tried exotic food such as squid, eel, sushi, miso soup, and a Japanese snack called bean paste. Kristy said "I liked everything I tried, but some things wouldn't be my first choice at a restaurant." Kristy had several duties at the hotel. She worked at the front desk, in reservations, as the front cashier, in the restaurant, the Food and Beverage Office, and the Food and Beverage Control. One advantage of being in a foreign country is learning the language. "I learned to say things like "Front desk, may I help you?" I picked up on words like please, thank you, okay, things like that. I was taught enough to help get my point across to a Japanese person," added Kristy. Kristy said she liked the front desk the best. "I like to help people. After a cou­ ple of days, I knew enough Japanese to answer any question. It was not hard to pick up duties. I felt that I was more on my own working at the front desk," Kristy said. In other areas Kristy worked, there was always a supervisor watching over her. She was also more comfortable working at the front desk because her co-workers were her age. Working at the hotel, Kristy met some famous people. She met the chairman of the board of I.B.M., Huey Lewis and the News, Billy Joel and Christy Brinkley, and a famous Japanese baseball player. Kristy was really surprised after she got to know some of the people. "I expected the people to be more traditional, but they really weren't. Once you got to know the people, they opened up and did things that we like to do, like go out and dance or watch T.V.," Kristy said. Kristy said there are a lot of misconceptions about Japan. The culture is different and there is very little crime. The penalties for crime in Japan are severe, and Kristy said it really makes a difference. "You don't have to worry about someone coming up behind you whenever you go out. It seems a lot safer than being in a big city in the U.S.," she added. Dating in Japan is not so different than it is in Boone. There is less public affection between couples. The most a person might see is a couple holding hands. As a pretty blonde-haired, blueeyed foreigner, Kristy was stared at quite frequently. The Japanese boys were mostly shy around Kristy. "I got stared at so much, I wished my novelty would wear off," she said. Kristy said weddings are big business in Japan. The banquet department of the hotel was one third of the total revenue of the hotel, and 45 percent of banquet operations were weddings. The groom's father pays for everything, and most of the guests are business associates of the father's. Unlike American weddings, all the immediate family and relatives sit in the rear while the business guests sit in the front. The attitude of male supremacy still exists in Japan, but it is changing according to Kristy. It's not as strong as it used to be. There is a national holiday called "Boy's Day" in Japan. There is also a "Girl's Day" that is not nationally recognized. One of the biggest misconceptions about Japan is that the people are harder working than Americans, Kristy said. MANAGING IN JAPAN: Kristy Becker (left) learn­ ed about hotel management at the Capitol Tokyu "Everyone thinks they're so hard workimz. Thev come to work at 9 a.m. and stay until 9 p.m. It seems to me that they sit around a lot. They think they work harder than Americans, but they really don't. They just work more hours." One thing Kristy gained from this experience is patience. "When I wanted to ask a question, I had to ask it at least twice. However, I thought language would be more of a barrier. I prepared for the worst, and it really wasn't that bad," she said. ' Hotel in Tokyo, Japan over the summer. Kristy is going back to Japan in December and May. The hotel offered her a paying job next sum­ mer, but Kristy hasn't decided what she'* eoing to do. As for long term goals, "My inten­ tions right now are getting into the hotel industry. Five or ten years down the road, I may open a restuarant with my brother because he's a chef." Kristy will graduate in May, and plans to use the six hours of credit she received from the internship towards electives in the College of Business. Kristy thinks people who are interested in working with people should consider a career in Restaurant/Hotel/Resort manage ment. "The service industry is growing. There are a lot of jobs out there," she added. Presently, Kristy is staying busy as Treasurer of the Hospitality Manage­ ment Student's Association. She definitely has a promising start on her career. Dr. Pat Geiger, first female doctor at ASU, treating students By J. SHAVER Appalachian Staff Writer Some of the students who have already visited the ASU Infirmary this semester have probably noticed it has gained a new doctor. Dr Pat Geiger, a Boone physician, is the first woman doctor on the infirmary staff. Dr Geiger said she doesn't feel special in any way for being the first woman there. She had a strong exam­ ple set for her from early in life. '7 enjoy working with the college students." cppaiacmon rnoto by Jim Kohl«r HEALTH SERVICES FIRST: Dr. Pat Geiger (right) examines a stu­ dent in the ASU Infirmary. Geiger is the first female doctor to share her medical knowledge with the students at Appalachian. "When I was five years old I had a female pediatrician... I had a role model when I was growing up, so that I never thought of it as being something that a woman didn't do," Geiger said. Although she said some students seem more comfortable with a female doctor, she believes a person's qualifications and work are a great deal more important than one's gender. In talking about her goals in life, Dr Geiger tells of an early desire to help other people. "When I was in college, I was really interested in some kind of service pro­ fession. Plus I liked biology," she said. Geiger's undergraduate work took place at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and her medical training was at BowmanGray, the medical school at Wake Forest University. After completing her residency at the University of Kentucky, Dr Geiger worked a private practice here in Boone for six years. Geiger, on the change of coming to ASU, said she likes the work and notes "I enjoy working with the col­ lege students." On the difference between her previous job and the position she holds now, Geiger said, "where I worked before it was primarily a pediatric practice, so I took care of patients from birth to college age, so now I'm just concentrating on the older age group." "I had a role model when I was growing up, so that I never thought of it as being something that a woman didn't do." Dr Geiger said "people think of pediatricians as just being baby doc­ tors." She reports, though, some of the students she has already treated in the infirmary are patients from her Community-minded lawyer lived history Attorney Wade Brown helps students APRIL GRIFFIN Assistant El Cetera Editor Mr Wade Brown is currently the legal advisor to ASU students and has been for the past five years. ... u Brown has lived in Watauga County all his life, and has practiced law in the Boone community for 56 years. , _ While attending Wake Forest University, he took the North Carolina bar ex­ am and graduated in 1931. "My interest in people is the biggest reason (I chose law school.) Liti i bought people were mistreatecf and I fell into law school. — Wade Brown "My interest in people is the biggest reason (I chose law school). Little in­ stances came up where I thought people were mistreated and I fell into law school," Brown said. Brown served as a lieutenant in the Navy during World War II.

Now engaging in what is basically general practice, Dr Geiger said there is little difference between what she is doing now and what she has done for years as a doctor. The change lies not in the nature of the duties, but in the patients being somewhat older. Her pediatric training is an extra qualifica­ tion for her work with young people Dr. Geiger, 35, hails from "...more or less Raleigh; I pretty much grew up there. My dad moved around a lot when I was younger, but I did junior high and high school there." She graduated from Sander­ son High School in Raleigh. See GEIGER Page 9 Jimmy Guignard Heavy responsibility with leaving home I know this guy who ticked his folks off real bad. At the same time, he put a dent in their tough outer emotional shell that caused pain, hurt and probably confusion. Seems to me, this guy got a bright idea this summer. One night he popped it on his folks: "Mom.. Dad.. .I've got to talk to ya'Il about something." "What is it, son?" "Well.. .it's kind of hard for me to say." "Just say it." "Aaahhh.. .well, okay.. .uh, I, uh, Iamgoingtomoveout!" > Stunned silence. Then a flurry of words and sentences flavored with ill will. See, I had this conversation the latter part of June. My parents were extremely upset after hearing that particular sentence. I was caught in an inferno of outrage. And you know the old saying—fight outrage with outrage. After I was gone, things changed. Something wonderful happened. I began talking to my folks more. I went to their house (still my 'home') to see them, not to sleep and eat. We got closer. I also noticed a tew things about the phenomenon known as moving out. Parents generally don't think going away to school and moving out are the same thing. 1 figured my parents would look at my leaving like I was coming back to ASU early. That's what I get for thinking. Another thing and you might want to highlight this: parents DON'T like being SURPRISED by something as major as moving out. My suggestion would be to let them know you are planning to scram. My Mom said she expected to have me for one more summer but she figured it would be my last. Imagine her shock. Being on your own is a pretty serious responsibility. Paying rent and bills, buying food and other assorted goodies are a large part of getting out. Do you party all night before work the next day? Whoa, another big decision. Granted, many students at ASU are totally responsible for themselves. By that, I mean, paying their own way. I really admire these people because I have a slight understanding about what they are doing. » VIy parents are paying rent, tuition, a few bills and other things. I appreciate it, too. Over the summer though, I paid for everything. With that comes an over­ whelming and almost overpowering sense of responsibility. Think about it sometime. The thought of what goes along with moving out is incredible. You have to buy light bulbs and toothpaste. Mom used to always do that. And underwear. God put mothers on the face of the earth to perform that feat. I didn't even know where to look for it in the store. I reckon since I have moved out for good now, I had better find out. I wonder if I'll be able to handle it when 1 get out and buy a car or gel married? �THE A PPA LACHIA N, THURSDA Y, AUGUST 27; 1987 CHECKING ACCOUNTS Checking Plan Interest Bearing? Other Features?

H'APPY'S "Luther, wake up," Albain said, shaking the young man in bed. "It's needy midnight. The moon is in position." Luther arose and put on his robe. "Good morrow, m'lord," he said. "No time," replied the old man. "Hurry." He ushered Luther into the nftt room where a table full of flasks, books, and astronomy and alchemy apparatus had been prepared the day before. Lord Albain sat Luther down before the equipment and said, "I've my ojvn experiments to perform beneath the moon's light this evening, Luther. Thou must continue alone. Do not fear; thou hast learned the proper methods." With that, he disappeared into the hall, and left Luther alone in the dark chamber. Luther lit a candle, illuminating his small section of the laboratory. Tonight would be the culmination of two years of study at the academy. Luther had to prepare a specific spell and place it into an amulet that could be invoked for his demonstration tomorrow before the council. Then, depending on the success of the amulet, Luther would receive his final grade and graduate. Graduating with the title, Professor of Alchemy, could earn Luther a good position as a teacher at the academy. He prepared the formulas days in advance, and finished most of the steps to the spell. All that was left tonight was to implant the spell into the amulet and expose it to the light while the sphere of the moon was in position. Luther picked up a flask, removed the stopper, and poured the contents oqto the amulet that was lying on a small black cloth. Then he blew out the candle and opened the curtains to let in the pale light. dA single beam of cold light struck the amulet where it lay on the table. Tlje small charm began to smoke. Thick, black gas poured from the table. With a sudden cracking noise, the amulet flashed brightly and disappeared. "S'blood!" Luther cried. This wasn't supposed to happen at all. He ran ir^tb the next room to find Albain, who had fallen asleep over his notes at an oak desk. "Lord Albain, m'lord, something went wrong! The amulet is gone!" hje cried hysterically. Albain awoke with a jerk. "What do you mean, boy?" he said. "What have you done?" "I must have done something wrong," Luther cried. "The amulet began to smoke. Then it caught fire and disappeared entirely." "Oh, by the seven names of God! You must have put in far too much mercury. What was it? One-half a measure? What?" Luther's face fell. "Maybe twelve parts? I did not see the fraction." "Oh, s'blood, Luther. Thou has sent the amulet into God knows what part of the universe! We must get it back. It could fall into an innocent's hands. If he should happen to invoke it by accident, there is no telling what damage)! might do!" Luther followed his master into the library. Albain began pulling dovm books and tomes, many of which had not been opened for decades. "Here," said the old man. "Help me look up the counter spell. What word did you use to trigger the amulet?" "Abracadabra," I think. "Luther, Luther," said the old man. "Couldn't you have chosen something more...well, unusual. Anyone who finds that amulet is going to say th^t word." "I did not think..." Luther began. « "I can see thou did not," said the old man sharply. He had a soft spot for his young pupil, but this was a grave mistake on Luther's part. "Had I given thee a sealing spell, wouldst thou conjure it open with 'open sesame?' " Luther turned red. "Does this mean I won't graduate?" To. be continued Are students ready? students were "fair to poor" academically.

"This is an excellent student health service," she said. The staff of the in­ firmary is composed of experienced health care professionals who can take care of a wide range of problems, and refer more difficult or specialized cases to appropriate facilities. While proud of her work as both a physician and as a woman, Dr Geiger states that "I wouldn't say though, that that has anything to do with how I look at myself or my job. For me I don't see it making a difference pro­ fessionally." She is quite at ease with who and what she is; both concerned and dedicated. Pat Geiger is a nice person with an open smile and an easy-going, friend­ ly manner. She is easy to get to know in fact quite pleasant to talk to. Dr Geiger is optimistic about the future and being here at ASU. "I'm really glad that I'm here, and I'm looking forward to it.

It also tends to be better for legs, knees and joints than jogging Bicycling gives the entire leg a workout, especially the quadracepsl hamstring and calf muscles. In addition, leg injuries like shin splints are much less common among bikers than joggers. The bicycling rage in the United States may have begun when American Greg Lemond won the Tour de France in 1986. Since then, more extensive media exposure has increased public awareness in bicycling as a sport for people at any level of fitness. Dean Lyons, an outstanding local bicyclist, encourages new riders to start slowly and gradually build up speed and distance. He also suggests reading as much material on the sport as possible before ro*u beginning any extensive bicycling workout. e °n top Lyons points out that there are advantages to joining cycling clubs. Locally, the Blue Ridge Cycling Club offers bikers a chance to become better acquainted with equipment, racing and other bicycling enthusiasts. C1"b P^siclent» Mark Russ, is attempting to organize a collegiate club team at ASU. The project has received a great deal of support from student cyclists but it is still in the planning stages.

If bicycling clubs are beyond a cyclist's abilities, riding to relax and enjoy the scenery will still provide exercise. The mountainous landscape should not discourage a biker though. The new mountain bikes" are ideal for the Boone area because they are geared low and help "ease out" the steep hills. The Bike and Runners Barn of Boone has reported sharp increases in the sale of these bikes over the last year. With this sale increase, however, the chance of bicycle accidents increases. In North Carolina, bicycles are regarded as vehicles, and therefore, all bicyclists are accountable in the event of a traffic violation or accident. Some of the most frequent violations include failure to observe stop signs and riding in the wrong direction. While the possibility of an accident exists, safety measure and cooperation by S, Who; the riders make bicycling a satisfying and enjoyable experience. ongdefi Wests rked ig year? i Moce ve muc Tim G; morel first tii itinue i 1 Patten Appalachian Photo by Chris Goodwyn BREAKING AWAY: The cycling boom has hit Boone.

Taaffe will switch the Bulldogs to he wishbone in '87, but will have rouble finding the athletes to run this implicated offense. Junior Tommy Burriss will take iver for the graduated Allen. The lackfield is more experienced with the return of Roger Witherspoon and Tom Frooman. The offensive line is still unproved and will need to come around in order for the wishbone to be successful. Defensively, the Bulldogs possess one of the SC's biggest names in defensive tackle Scott Thompson. Thompson was a first-team AilAmerican one year ago when he led the team with 183 tackles. Unfor­ tunately, the rest of the defense is not so capable. The Citadel gave up 29.4 points per game in '86 and with only one starter returning in the secondary, they will be picked on again in '87.

Instead of simply presenting the student ID to an ROTC gatekeeper, now a computer will verify the IDs at the gate. This will insure that the ID is used only once per home game. Bob Thomas, ticket manager and compliance director, hopes that students will show up early at home games since the new process will take somewhat longer. The computer at the gate will read the ID number. Once initially passed, I an ID can not be approved again fQr the same game. A common practice at most games is handing the ID through the gate so that several students and guests could be admitted on one ID. This new pro­ cess will eliminate the multiple use of a single ID. For students bringing guests to the games, one guest ticket per ID may be purchased prior to the game at the ticket office in Broome-Kirk Gym. Guest tickets are $6, up from the $5 price of a year ago. With the com­ puter checking the IDs, Thomas ex­ pects an increase in the sale of guest tickets. Downs Continued from Page 10 Downs is unsure about his leader­ ship abilities but hopes that by play­ ing well the younger players will follow suit. "I'm not a vocal type person," Downs said. "I'm the type that leads by example." Downs is one of the most popular players on the team. He has a list of nicknames that is about as long as his honors list. "Receiving these honors is good, but I try not to thrive on them. I realize that I can do better and that there is always room for improvement." —Anthony Downs "because I'm a sensitive big guy", Luscious, "from my girlfriend", Boom Boom, "from my fraternity" and Heavy, "for my large rear end." "Each nickname is significant in its own way," said Downs, "but Pizza is my first nickname. It was given to me by my father when I was a baby." That was a long time ago, it is now time for "Pizza" to achieve a lifelong goal, playing in the NFL. "That is the ultimate goal," said Downs. "I've been striving for it ever since I started playing." Knowing Downs usually achieves his goals, it's a good bet that we will be watching him on Sundays next year. However before that, Downs would like to do something else before Tie leaves ASU. "Win another Southern Con­ ference Championship, and continue the winning tradition that was established last year," Downs said. Those two goals will be accomplish­ ed if all the other players follow the lead of their captain.

Opinion Page Editor CHRIS COLE, Photography Editor ANNETTE BRAND LE, Copy Editor MICH ELF HOLLO WEIL, Assistant Copy Editor JODY BROWN, Editorial Production Manager Ignorance is no response TERESA CHALK, Advertising Production Manager A group of people and I were sitting on the stone wall overlooking Sanford mall^ taking a break between classes and enjoying a little bit of sun. In the middle of this casual scene, our own campus evangelist walked up with his banner and proceeded to proselytize us all out of a good mood. If it was rude of him to inform us of our imminent danger of going to hell, the responses he received were even ruder. The only proper response to an unwanted tirade is to ignore it or walk away. The others sitting on the wall, however, proceeded to prove the man's point by shouting obscenities. Later, I asked a few of those who had so Safety is becoming an increasingly important consideration on this vehemently opposed the evangelist's message if they as well as other campuses around the nation. had ever read even a part of the Bible. None had. Rumors of rapes, robberies and other crimes quickly spread through Not a single person there who was angered by the the student community. situation had any real idea of what it was that made them angry. Safety first concern Although most rumors remain unsubstantiated, the growing number of them indicate a rising concern with safety on and off campus. To meet student demands for a safer campus, Student Government, Security and the Administration have established means to help students protect themselves. The blue-light system is the newest of these programs. Another important program, set up by SGA, is the Mountaineer Escort. Women who have to walk on campus alone after dark can call the service at 262-2265 in room 20 Workman Hall. Escorts wearing yellow jackets for identification will escort students as far as the perimeter parking lots. However, most violent incidents occur with acquaintances rather than strangers. People are naturally distrustful of those they do not know and rarely imagine friends will hurt them. Precautions must be taken even when in the company of acquaintances. The only way for students to protect themselves is to prevent occurances and to report them at once if they happen. Some of the more obvious preventions of attacks are locking doors and staying in well-lighted areas. Other ways students can protect themselves are to take extra care when working alone in campus buildings late at night. Students should let their friends know where they will be and when to expect them home at night. This helps prevent students from finding themselves in danger without anyone knowing their whereabouts. Women should take special precautions on first dates. Blind dates in particular present possible danger. Simple measures such as staying in public places and group dates can prevent possible attacks or rapes. The bottom line is that despite the special programs on campus and in the community to protect people, each person is ultimately responsi­ ble for their own safety. If programs are not used to educate people and if individuals do not take precautions on their own, no program in the world will be able to protect them. If, despite all precautions, a student is the victim of violence counselling and assistance is available through the Psychological Ser­ vices on campus and the Oasis Crisis Center. Both services are free and confidential and Oasis offers shelter for victims and will assist the victim through any legal procedures. Students need to be responsible for their own safety. Established systems can only do so much. To truly protect themselves, students must utilize the programs available, and take their own precautions. No system can take the place of common sense. David Farthing First, no one proved anything by returning the rude behavior with obscene gestures. I consider that those persons only lowered themselves by such a response. Secondly, it makes one look rather stupid not to have a basis in knowledge for one's opinion. I can see that the way the message of Christianity was presented in this case could easily turn people off, but I feel there are a great number of people who immediately turn off at the mention of religion without any idea of what it really is. I feel a certain amount of pity for this man who obviously believes he has sometbiiJ tant to say but cannot present it wil anger.

Making Appalachian the new wastela By PAULA CHILDERS Appalachian Staff Writer It's enough to make you want to transfer. I stayed in Boone to attend summer school this year, for the first time since 1984, and one of the things I noticed most about the summer months in Boone was how beautiful everything was, especially campus. I took late night walks to sit beside the fountains or lie on the mall and watch the moon. Everything seemed green, fresh and altogether different from how I remembered it. I wondered if I had actually been blind during the school year not to have noticed. I found out this week I hadn't been blind at all. After a long harrowing week of registration, drop-add and first classes, I decided I needed a walk to get my thoughts together. So, Satur­ day evening I went down to the mall in front of Sanford to sit. Not only did I find the fountain clogged with trash and empty beer cans, I stepped on glass from a large brown bag of broken beer bottles tossed beside it. I was angered then, but I decided I would let that one go—after all, it was only one place, right? Wrong. Everywhere I went on campus, it was the same story. Cans in the fount­ ains, trash on the ground (with an empty trash can less than a yard away), broken glass on the sidewalks and in the grass... I began to wonder if I had stumbled in a warp and come out on another campus, because this one wasn't like the clean, pleasant place where I had been all summer. damp grass with bar warm night, feeling contrast of warm an< doubtful to me that notice just how nice when it's clean, fortli< notice how different their trash on it.

After I had picked my way through the trash and glass, arrived at home and popped open my own beer (which I disposed of in a trash can), I began to wonder about just what kind of person it took to gain pleasure out of ruining something beautiful. What could they have been thinking when Is this the way we they dropped those cans or broke we want to be destro those bottles?

Less attention required to solve prol By JAMES JARRETT Appalachian Stall Writer In today's society, college students are usually looked down upon. The community sees them as outsiders of the community and undeserving of respect or honor. Nowhere is this attitude more evident than in the area of illegal drugs and alcohol. In most university towns, the students are blamed for every unlawful event. The students are also blamed as the source of all the drugs in that town and should be dealt with as strictly as the law allows. After all, no one else in the community could possibly be at fault when there is an entire university of scapegoats to take the blame. Granted, colleges are perhaps the most concentrated areas of drug and alcohol abuse but they also represent some of the most concentrated populations in the nation as well. When you pack over eleven thousand students into only a few square miles of area then there are naturally going to be a large number of troublemakers. If only one percent of Appalachian's student population was comprised of troublemakers and abusers of illegal substances then that would still be over 110 people in a small area. Students in the university system represent the highest academic caliber of people in the United States today and are also among the hardest work­ ing. Universities mean great deals of stress and fatigue and the local drug dealers take full advantage of that. Selling small amounts of drugs at low prices often allow the dealers to hook young people into a lifetime of substance abuse. Once they are hooked, many students begin selling to support their habit and the system snowballs until there is a large concentration of users on the campus. Drugs are the one thing that I myself cannot and will not tolerate. I would probably be the first one to leave a party or a friend's house if drugs appeared on the scene. I am not, however, a believer in instant and unmerciful punishment. I believe that the average drug user would stop if he or she could. The ones who want to quit and are willing to try should not face any reprimand for their actions during the recovery period and in fact should be rewarded if they kick the habit. Still, even though drugs on campus are controversial, they cannot begin to compete with the problem of alcohol on campus. American lawmakers believe that raising the age for the purchase and consumption of alcohol will lower the number of alcohol related deaths and injuries. I don't see how this could possibly work. Human beings are by far the most curious species on the planet; we want to know everything we can about everything. If someone prohibits us from doing something, then the idea of doing it becomes that much more appealing. I have visited Europe in the past and have seen their ideas about the governing of alcohol consumption They believe that if a person is exposed to drinking in everyday life they will develop a more relaxed social attitude about it. If someone grows up with something then it becomes so commonplace to them that they don't care if they have it or not. The number of alcohol related incidents in Europe is so much lower than the United States that one is led to believe that their better than ours. The reason for cynical attitude towa our puritan roots, founded by people \ freedom, and we stil our old world ideals, our feelings about regard about the hur sidered by European old fashioned and cl the most technically try in the world is s social ideals and polii I believe the best1 to deal with the pn and alcohol today is casual attitude about tion.

The name "sheep" certainly fits North Carolinians to a *T\ This is par­ ticularly true in light of their shameful submission to the edicts of the various busybodies known as morality enforcers. Over the past five or so years, there has been a plethora of legislation against victimless crimes: actions which may be foolish, repugnant, or wrong, but which nevertheless do not violate the rights of others. On a federal level, we have witnessed the promulgation of such things as the "War On Drugs," pressure upon the individual states to raise their drink­ ing ages and mandate seatbelt use, an attempt to ban smoking in private workplaces via regulatory agencies and a renewed attempt to restrict handgun ownership for responsible individuals. On the state and local level, we have witnessed the making of a new and more strict pornography ordinance, a blocking of attempts to repeal "crime-against-nature" laws, the entrapment of "Johns" in Gaston County, and various attempts by cities to become fashion plates through anti-sign and zoning ordinances. All of this has been done, implicitly or explicitly, to enforce someone's personal, moral and/or aesthetic values on us. But what is the reason­ ing behind legislating on such mat­ ters? And more importantly, does this reasoning come out of the wash unscathed? These questions certainly warrant our concern. The strongest argument in favor of legislation on personal, moral and aesthetic values by religious conserv­ atives and paternalist liberals has it that all social systems, cultures, and laws are based upon a moral fiber which, if cut, would result in the col­ lapse of civilization. What usually follows afterwards is some cliche-like prattle on how Rome fell. In spite of this, there is a small kernel of truth to what religious con­ servatives and paternalist liberals are saying. One need not be a prude to see that all social systems, cultures, and laws are based on certain normative presuppositions. However, when the religious Right and the paternalist Left propose "legislating morality," they forget the very moral principles that America was founded upon. America was founded upon the principle that since government is comprised of individuals and has its power delegated to it by individuals, government can have no more or less moral legitimacy in its actions than individuals. Also, America was founded upon the principle that the only legitimate use of coercion is against those who initiate coercion and who thereby violate others' rights. Fused together, these two principles mean that the only legitimate prerogative of government is to pro­ tect individual rights from coercion via a police force, a court system, and the armed forces. These two fused moral principles mean that as no individual has the right to coerce others "for their own good," likewise no government has the right to do such and no one may rightfully delegate such authority to govern­ ment. These two moral principles are not only evident in the stringent limita­ tions on government power enumerated in the Bill of Rights and the Constitution, but are also explicit­ ly stated in the Independence: Declaration of "That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed." In contrast to this, those who would "legislate morality" are advocating that government have powers that no sane person would recognize as being legitimate if prac­ ticed by a private individual. No sane person would see it as legitimate if a private individual were to forcefully accost another individual and decide for that individual what he mayread, write, ingest, who he may love and associate with, and what he may believe. Why, then, are there those that persist in advocating that govern­ ment doing these things is legitimate? Are government officials a higher order of man to whom others are to be subordinate? In addition to contradicting the very moral principle that America was founded upon, those who would "legislate morality" forget one crucial point about the relationship of law and morality. While it is indeed true that laws are based upon a code of morality, the vice-versa is not true; morality, if it is absolute, is not based upon statutory laws. Since laws vary from society to society, to advocate "legislating morality" is to advocate the notion that morality is relative to social demand, particularly when laws are made at the ballot box. And since laws carry with them the threat of coercion for those who disobey, to advocate "legislating morality" is to advocate the notion that "might makes right." To espouse moral relativism and the notion that "might makes right" in the name of a return to absolute morality is a brazen con­ tradiction in terms, not to mention a total misuse of the term "absolute morality." To say that morality is absolute does not mean it is to be enforced by law. It is possible to hold that there is an absolute morality, and even to know what it is, yet not to demand it be enforced by law. If the word "absolute" means anything, it is obligatory for us to say that absolute morality not be enforced by law. An absolute morality is a demonstrable one; it is something which is predicted upon facts which can be grasped by all of us through our mutual posses­ sion of a rational faculty. If morality is demonstrable, what need then is there for coercing its acceptance? By advocating that morality be legislated, both the religious Right and the paternalist Left imply that there is no way to demonstrate why one shouldn't use drugs, por­ nography, or alcohol, why one shouldn't be promiscuous or fool­ hardy with one's health, etc. By their so doing, they negate what genuine wisdom there may be in their advice. In the words of journalist Henry Louis Mencken: "The kind of man who would enforce his ideas by law is the kind of man whose ideas are idiotic." is great. One minute after sitting down I was finished. After standing in line for hours, I was really finished. I know more people who have missed class because of Drop/Add than because of anything else, including hangovers. The old registration system was great. Everyone had to stand in a line to pick up a course and the lines were short because there were so many lines. Now, there is one line, which, I'm sure if one checked, would end in infinity. Really. Not only did the new system foul up lines at registration, it also seemed to screw up the lines at the bookstore as well. The people who ordinarily would have been standing in Ijne at registration (because they knew they would be getting out that same day) were now free to join the masses at the bookstore. Computerization was probably a great idea. But there needs to be a way of controlling the lines, like giving more time to register. A month, maybe.

ASU Chancellor John Thomas signed the new academic integrity policy at the end of last semester. The policy explicitly outlines what can be considered academic dishonesty and what procedures faculty members are to follow in accusing students of violations. Under the new code, students violating the policy for the first time will be required to meet with their professors. During the meeting the faculty member will present evidence of the violation and hear any ex­ planations from the student. The professor has the option of giving the student a formal warning, giving the student a reduced grade for the assignment or giving the student a reduced grade for the course. The faculty member then fills out a form, noting the penalty to be assigned and gives it to the student. The student has three days to decide whether to sign the form to admit guilt. If the student does sign, he or she returns it to the professor who implements the penalty and gives the form to the Office of Student Affairs. The Office of Student Af­ fairs is responsible for keeping the record in their office for five years. The Academic Integrity Code defines If the student does not sign the form ad­ academic dishonesty as cheating, plagiarism, mitting guilt, or if it is a subsequent offense multiple submissions of material, the abuse by the student, the faculty member must of academic materials and the borrowing of take the case to the Chairperson of the facts or information without proper cita­ Academic Integrity Board before a penalty tion. can be imnosed.

"I think it will work well for both the faculty and students. I was convinced that the old system had fallen into disuse." "I don't believe we violated the basic underlying philosophy of where both sides were coming from," Thomas said. "This says very plainly to faculty members this is the way to proceed if they suspect a student of being academically dishonest," Daye said. "I encourage students to read the policy carefully," she added. A copy of the new policy was mailed to all students early last week. Student requests are met with new music WASU changes format from Top 40 to AOR By LOU WRAY Appalachian Slaff Writer WASU has changed from a Top 40 format to an Album Oriented Rock/Progressive Music format. "Since August 15th WASU has been playing ninsic tailored H> what the students of ASU want," WASU Program Director Jamie Smith said. The format change is the first in five years. Station Manager Greg Coury, Smith and News Director Mark Blackmon all said the change has had overwhelmingly good responses. Coury had some concern about the change after having a Top 40 format for so long. He said he hoped the AOR/Progressive mix will carry on in the years to come. "There is something for everyone here because the music is so diverse. The students wanted it and now they've got it," Coury said. At the organizational meeting over 200 applicants came to work at the station. "There are 70 students signed up for disc jockey class and that alone speaks for the appeal to the change," Smith said. There will be specialty shows in the new format. Every hour the station will be playing album cuts, golds, band music and current hits. Monday through Saturday there will be classic oldies. Monday is "no repeat" Monday and Monday through Friday from five to six there will be a sixties "snap." Saturdays start olf with country, then WASU's own countdown of AOR, Christian rock, blues, and a rock show until twelve. Sundays will have a classical show from 6 a.m.-9 a.m. Then for the first time ever at WASU there will be an open-mike show. ASU students can bring their favorite collection of music to the station and play it themselves. A disc jockey will be there to operate the equipment, but students pick what to play and say as long as it is not obscene. For the rest of the day there will be beach music, raggae, jazz and punk shows. "Anyone that doesn't find something that they like at WASU, isn't really looking hard," Smith said. Blackmon said the news depart­ ment also has a number of newly planned programs. "We plan to have a lot of beat reporting where our reporters go out and see what you have to say.

"It gives the students every op­ portunity to know what is meant by academic dishonesty. I don't see how a stu­ dent could unknowingly be academically dishonest." BLUE LIGHT: Nine emergency blue light telephones, such as the one pictured, were installed in various locations all over the ASU campus this summer. To contact security from the new telephones, students should press the button beside the speaker on the telephone. Students can speak to a person at the security office or, if they are unable to talk, the system will automatically tell where the student is located and a security officer will be sent to the area immediately. "I hope they will provide some degree of security on campus that we haven't had before," ASU Director of Security Roy Tugman said. "It does give students an oppor­ tunity for immediate contact to our office." Tugman said the blue-light system is a pro­ ject the security office has been working on for about three years. "It just took us a while to get the money and the equipment," Tugman said. "The system will make all university people feel safer. But it goes further than just feeling. I think they will be (safer) with that kind of communication." Roy Tugman The project is supported by several student organizations, including student government. "I think it's great. We emulated the UNC-C system. We asked for it and we got it," SGA President Cary Ann Wolf said. "It will greatly enhance escort. When counting victories for SGA, that was a big one." "The system will make all university people feel safer. But it goes further than just feeling. I think they will be (safer) with that kind of communication," Tugman added. Tugman said the blue-light system hasn't been used except in testing the telephones.

SGA Vice President Beeker said that since the SGA Senate is the main voice of the students on campus, SGA is concentrating on getting a full Senate during elections later this month. "Basically we're looking at getting a full Senate," SGA President Wolf said. - "Right now everyone is at work but they're at work getting the Senate ready. Once we get the Senate is when we can really take off." The SGA is also looking at how the new registration system can be improved. Wolf said the new system, which was implemented last year for ASU students, needs some improvements. "I believe Dr. Dave Mclntire, Vice -Chancellor for Student Affairs, and Dr. Harvey Durham, Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs, realize that it was a mistake having drop-add on the first day of classes," Wolf said. "I see some other changes coming up," Beeker said. "I think the improvement of food services will be taking place. I'm hoping that some­ one will see about putting in new com­ puters." Beeker said she wanted to see prices placed on food items and new com­ puter registers put into use to reduce waiting in lines. In their campus escort program, Wolf and Beeker have also ordered jackets and idenJification cards for the students. "I think the communica­ tions are going to be bet­ ter. You're going to see us going out into the residence halls and talking to people." —Adelaide Beeker SGA Vice President Wolf said SGA was making an effort to improve communication both between student government and students, and the university and the town. "I think the communications are going to be better. You're going to see us going out into the residence halls and talking to people," Beeker said. The SGA will be publishing a newsletter to inform off-campus students about events taking place on campus. Beeker said SGA would be actively involved with the Community Rela­ tions Board to improve communica­ tions between the town of Boone and the University. The Community Relations Board is a committee consisting of officials from the town of Boone, and ASU administrators and students that look at problems and concerns of mutual interest to the campus and town. The SGA Cabinet for the 1987-88 academic year consists of: Beth Anne Nordstrom, Public Affairs; Patrick Vickers, State Affairs; Brian Groh, SGA Administrative Assistant; Pam Packard, Treasurer; Jeff Merritt, SGA Legislative Assistant; Ginny Sanders, Secretary; Gary Greene, Off-Campus Student Affairs; Scott Adams, Community Affairs; Chris Miller, Student Affairs; Charles Ledbetter, Mountaineer Escort Direc­ tor; Gram Spear, Rules Committee Chairperson; Betsy Griffin, Panhellenic President; Cam Mills, Interfraternity Council President; Kirsten Schoonmaker, Academic Affairs; Mary Hicks, Assistant Secretary; Kim Gray, Chief Justice; Mark Skidmore, Public Defender; and Andrew Heckle, Attorney A NEW DIRECTION: SGA President Cary Ann General.

Walker College of Business is offering managers and supervisors in health care fields the opportunity to obtain a Health Care Management certificate. The certificate is offered through the Health Management Program. "This is for people who want to up­ date or gain new skills and knowledge. We have been discussing this program for several years and are putting the pieces together," Director of Health Care Management Don Dodson said. "There has been an interest all over the state and even in South Carolina," Dodson said. In addition to Boone, courses are being offered in Asheville, Charlotte, Greensboro, Hickory, Marion and Winston-Salem. Courses will be taught at hospitals and other health care institutions upon request. This professional continuing educa­ tion program will be taught in a noncredit, non-academic fashion with no grades or tests given. There are six programs courses which include: Fundamentals of Health Care Management and Super­ vision, Interpersonal and Organiza­ tional Communication, Leadership, Employee Relations and Human Resources Management, Health Care Marketing, Managerial Decision Making Assessment and Creative Problem Solving, and Health Budgeting and Finance. Dr. Tom Mcllwain is the newest faculty member. He comes here from the University of Alabama at Birm­ ingham and has a Ph.D. in Ad­ ministration Health Services. Mcllwain taught four years of" Health Care Management and Per­ sonal Human Resources Management in the Masters program plus other health care management courses. In addition to twelve faculty members, health care administrators and executives will teach courses. "Our faculty is very qualified. They all have academic credentials, experience in the health care field and experience working with adults." Dodson said "We have managed to maintain certain standards such as qualified faculty, up-to-date curriculum and quality students. "The certification program is the second largest undergraduate pro­ gram in the U.S. holding the highest level of membership in the Associa­ tion of University Programs in Health Administration. Courses for the program start on September 22 but will not be taught in any certain sequence. "We are trying to accomodate re­ quests coming in now for certain courses and schedule them at conven­ ient times," Dodson said. Each course will meet for two hours once a week for ten weeks each semester. Further registration an­ nouncements about exact times and dates will be made. Tuition costs for each course are $225. Books and materials are extra.

The purpose of the policy Js to grant all students, current or former, the right to confidentiality of their student records including transcripts, personal evaluations and grades. The plan was introduced as The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 by legislation. It concerns the availability of informa­ tion kept in student records at the college level. This policy will pro­ tect any student who is registered at the university. The only information which is made public without the student's consent is the following directory in­ formation: the student's name, ad­ dress, telephone listing, date and place of birth, major, activities with which the student is involved, dates of attendance, degrees and awards received, class schedule, and former school attended by the student. public by simply contacting the Of­ fice of the Vice Chancellor for Stu­ dent Affairs on registration day of each semester. "What is directory information by law are the only records that can be maintained by the general public at ASU, unless a student requests other­ wise," Assistant Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs, Barbara Daye, said. Students can ask that any of their records, including directory informa­ tion, be made inaccessible to the Students do have access to their transcripts upon a written request.

"We will produce, and distribute our own programs. We aren't pro­ fessionals, but we try damn hard." "WASU is willing to work with and try their best to accommodate other organizations on campus.

A phrase you've probably heard throughout your col­ lege career, whether you are a newly arrived freshman or a senior ready to graduate. Probably, it's also a phrase you've dismissed almost as many times as you've heard it. "Too busy," is the frequent response. "Besides, my opinion won't make a difference anyway." It is interesting that the people who think this way are often those who criticize ASU the most. Too many people, it seems, care enough to com­ plain, but not enough to take action on their complaint. I'm not going to pretend that ASU is without fault, but I do believe that students have a strong voice in what goes on. That voice is student govern­ ment. As representatives of the student body, it is the responsibility of the SGA to see that students' needs and concerns are recognized and dealt with by the administration. As we have seen in the past, it is up to the students whether the SGA is effective in this capacity. If student government is not utilized by the students, it has no strength. For­ tunately, this has not happened in the past few years. Rather, students have taken an active interest in their government with obvious and positive results. Last year the students expressed concern over library hours. Many felt that 11:00 p.m. was too early to close. A bill was passed through the senate extending library hours until 12:00 a.m. on weeknights. This is only a small example of the power of student government. There are 88 seats in the SGA Senate. If each of these seats is filled by a dependable and dedicated Senator who fully represents his or her constituency, then student needs will be met. It is the Senator's respon­ sibility to keep in touch with those he or she represents and to see that their concerns are voiced in the Senate. It is the responsibility of the students to let their Senator know how they feel about ASU. If we take pride in our government and show the administration that the students are a force to be dealt with, then I can promise you there is vir­ tually nothing we cannot Not everyone can join the Senate, but this does not mean that not everyone can have a voice in school politics. Senate is open to the public and always welcomes curious guests. Your student government officers have spent the summer working on ideas for the school year ahead. We already have an enthusiastic cabinet excited about working with the students. Now we need excited students. The SGA wants to be recognized as an effective organization, and we realize that the path to success lies in meeting students' needs. Because of this, we are ready and willing to listen to and act on these needs. Student government is exactly that—government by the students. If we take pride in our government and show the administration that the students are a force to be dealt with, then I can promise you there is vir­ tually nothing we cannot accomplish. So instead of sitting around whin­ ing about this year's drop-add procedure, or not being able to eat in the library, take a stand and get involved. SGA's growth the past couple of years has been tremendous and it has the potential to grow even more this year. I'm not being idealistic when I say that any student can make a dif­ ference. Remember, student govern­ ment is for you. Take advantage of this organization that you, as a stu­ dent, are already a part of. I speak for the entire cabinet when I say we are truly interested in what you have to say, and that we will do our best to serve you. Please feel free to approach me, or any other officer on campus with ideas or suggestions you have. As a student of this university you owe it to yourself to get the most out of your education. Get involved. The Appalachian Popular Pro­ gramming Society (A.P.P.S.) has planned various events for the semester. "Our goal this year is to have more people involved while programming events for everyone on campus," A.P.P.S. President Lane Newsome said. "Also, I would like to work closer with students off campus and with other organizations to receive their input," he added. On August 28 and 29 the movies Top Gun and Mad Max will be shown at the I.G. Greer Auditorium. There will be two showings at 7 and 9 p.m. Admission is $1.50. On September 1 at 3:30 p.m. and at 5 p.m. on September 2 there will be an A.P.P.S. Information Fair at the Student Union Pub.

(Abstract painting, and sketches, but, according to his wife, art) is not usually representative of something, and his first love was painting and then came teaching. he is more representative. One big thing I really like "He loved to teach," Mrs. Aydelott said. "He that he did is it's three dimensional, a lot of texture had a great deal of knowledge about everything and and relief, see how some of it is raised and some dug about art in particular, and he always loved to get it in, he would even tear the canvas for effect." out and tell people.

"He was an aerial photographer Dean Aydelott taught in high schools and colleges during the Korean War.

He led workshops tor teachers to also of land masses to get an idea of where the troops Appalachian Staff Writer were going. If you look at his paintings you'll see aerial landscapes in many of them," Betty explained. Lettering was used frequently by Aydelott to sym­ bolize the meaning of painting. "There are messages on his paintings," Wyrick said, "maybe it makes you think of Egyptian tombs." A good example of this lettering is a painting called Halifax January Remembrance, an aerial perspective of a trip taken by Aydelott, his wife, and son, Jason. Letters at the top must be arranged by the observer before the story can be fully understood. "He never thought, 'I'm going to paint this to sell it or to change the world.' He painted what was inside him." If paintings sold, great, if not, that was fine too," Betty explained. Aydelott's paintings did make it to public view though. One was hung in the Smithsonian Institution and another was purchased by the Ford Foundation. "Dean knew exactly what he was doing with his art," Betty said. "He never thought he was at his ultimate best. When you reach perfection it's all over." What are considered some of Dean Aydelott's best pieces can be seen at the Catherine J. Smith Gallery through September 10. The community is welcome to come see the work of this enthusiastic, dedicated professor. Mary Wyrick hopes the exhibit will help former students see what Aydelott taught as it relates to the art he created. "It is important to see how someone progressed over time, to see it side by side where similarities and differences can be noticed," Wyrick said. The retrospective was compiled so students and residents might be able to enjoy and get to know a person they may not otherwise have a chance to meet. Appalachian Photo by Erin K. Moron Dean Aydelott's self-portrait. Duck pond preserved and named in honor of Becky Tomlinson By ANDREA ANDERSON Appalachian Staff Writer A familiar landmark on the ASU campus received a facelift this sum­ mer. The duck pond is no longer a humble pool of quackers. It is now known as Tomlinson Park, named in honor of ASU Associate Professor Emeritus, Rebecca Tomlinson. Tomlinson's interest in preserving this well-recognized area of the campus brought about improvements including flowers, an arbor, picnic tables and a sculpture selected for a year-long exhibit. "I wanted other people to enjoy this as a place of peaceful beauty," Tomlinson said Appalachian Photo by Janot HoHnor Associate Professor Emeritus Rebecca Tomlinson In 1947, Tomlinson received a B.S. degree in physical education and social studies from ASU. She received a master's degree from Peabody Col­ lege in 1949 and another physical education degree from Indiana University in 1958. She joined the ASU faculty as an assistant professor in 1961, retiring in 1981. She was narped Associate Professor Emeritus Artists place sculptures around campus Greg Rickey Love. It's just a word... or is it? Webster's Dictionary defines love as "a strong affection or attachment to a person." Okay, now that everyone is in love or has experienced it, what does everyone do about it? This, believe it or not, has become quite a problem on college campuses throughout the country, ASU being no exception. Many freshman and upperclassmen alike, upon returning to school, face the problem of saying goodbye to loved ones met in high school or over summer break. Fall classes bring different schedules, schools, and even different states, one of these being the ever popular state of anxiety. Alright, so who says you have to go your own way when school starts anyhow? Monogamous and lasting relationships are becoming a popular idea due to the AIDS scare. Even students who are not sexually active have to realize there are 4,500 members of the opposite sex on campus. This makes it increasingly difficult to hold a monogamous relationship even if both partners attend the same school. Some couples do cope however, and have absolutely no problem with baiting to see that true love, while other couples feel college is a time to test the waters instead of committing to one person. The latter decision sometimes causes a lot of friction for some of the committed people because rarely do both partners feel the same way. The concept of seeing other people already involved in a longstanding relationship may be extremely foreign to freshmen who come to ASU. College is overflowing with diverse people from hundreds °f different backgrounds, so why shouldn't they be able to explore the vast uniqueness of these people on campus? Oh, I forgot, you are in love. The old adage says true love will last forever, but people will just come and 80. Since no one lives forever the statement is really hard to prove. The question of what to do about love on campus unfortunately can only be answered by time and circumstance, but if you are happy with the way you are» I suggest you stay that way. I only wish to address a problem and inform students they are not alone. It >s, however, up to individuals to work out their dilemma as best they see fit. . Love is an incredible emotion which can be both constructive and destruc­ tive, but always elusive... so don't let it get away. "I've always been involved with sports. All my family has participated in sports, and 1 never knew any dif ferent—we grew up with sports," Tomlinson said. Despite the fact ASU sports has grown so rapidly in recent years, with more female students getting involved, Tomlinson doesn't want it to get too big "I want a girl to come here for an education first, then enjoy sports. We have to keep our priorities stiaight," she said. The duck pond has been a part of the ASU campus for many years. dating back to 1927, and Tomlinson felt it was important to preserve the area. "It's a place where students can gather to meet, study, or think," Iomlinson said. She helped to plan the current layout of the park area and approved all the renovations before they were done. "I'm thrilled with all this, for future generations if nothing else. Someone has to be the one to stick their neck out, and I don > mind do­ ing it." she said "If you can't leave something in life for future generations, you haven't done anything." Feeding the ducks is often a delightful way to spend a few minutes, and many students or residents like to make friends with the feathered creatures. Some of the ducks had to be removed this year because of overpopulation.

Tomlinson kept busy during her stay at Appalachian. She began the first women's recreation and intramural program, and was the first women's basketball coach. She formed the Appalettes dance group and sponsored the Women's Recrea­ tion Association. She was also the first non-athlete to earn a letter jacket from the university. One cannot help but notice the unique and imaginative art exhibited around campus. It is part of the Ap­ palachian Summer program to recognize American sculptors and promote appreciation of the visual arts. Ten sites have been selected to show these free-standing modern art works. A competition was sponsored earlier this year in affiliation with The Catherine J. Smith Gallery to deter­ mine the 10 most eligible pieces out of 98 entries. Ads were bought in Sculpture magazine and mailing lists obtained to insure a good sampling of American sculptors. Richard Hunt, a visiting ASU lec­ turer and nationally known sculptor, chose the winning pieces. "I had to call on all of my resources as a sculptor to choose the 10 best pieces, but they were not just the best in their own right, they also had to fit in with the surroundings the best, and be able to withstand the elements for a year," Hunt said. "I had to call on all of my resources as a sculptor to choose the 10 best pieces, but they were not just the best in their own right, they also had to fit in with their surroundings the best.

According to lomlinson, the population will go back up after Easter, when parents bring the ducks their children received as gifts to the pond.

"Natuie has a way of taking care of things," Tothlinson said. She recalled a story of driving by the duck pond one winter, and seeing a gioup of students trying to rescue a duck frozen in the ice. Tomlinson got a long rope from her car and directed the duck's rescue. One male student tied the rope around himself, and with the other students holding the rope to keep him from falling in, he crawled out on the ice and saved the duck. Tomlinson hopes that by making the pond into a park, that it will be around for a while longer. "To me, it's more important to have something like that than bricks and rnoitar."

The Apps collected six Southern Conference championships, including firstever conquests for football and women's basketball. The men's and women's track teams accounted for the other four in indoor and outdoor track. The ASU football squad appears qualified to defend their championship. Coach Sparky Woods returns fifteen starters from last year's 9-2-1 team. Although last season ended on a somewhat disappointing note, a 28-26 firstround play-off loss to Nicholls State, the Apps experienced their best year since 1947. John Settle graduated last year, leaving 31 ASU career records and 19 SC marks. He rushed for 1897 yards in the '86 season. Cedric Felton, the top tackier in ASU history, will not be soon forgotten. He is the owner of 504 career tackles. Fan interest reached its zenith last year paralleling the Mountaineers' suc­ cess. Conrad Stadium attendance set an all-time high with an average of 15,666 people. The top three single-game crowds turned out in 1986, the best being 22,618 in the opener with Western Carolina. With the return of students to the Boone campus, football intensity begins to grow. More so than in previous years, students can be heard saying, "I can't wait for football season." The anticipation of another winning season comes with a 17-5-1 record over the last two years. ASU football cannot arrive soon enough for the Moun­ taineer faithful. Though the App men's basketball team struggled through a 7-21 season, the ladies did not follow suit. Coach Linda Robinson continued to work her magic, taking the Lady Apps to their first NCAA postseason play. A 24-7 finish marked the best year in their history. Forward Karen Robinson, the school's second all-time leading scorer, graduated, but the Lady Apps should once again contend for league honors behind the play of All-American Valorie Whiteside. Whiteside knocked down over 25 points a game for the Lady Mountaineers while Dulling over nine rebounds. Perhaps no school has dominated a sport like ASU track. The men's and women's teams cruised to championships in both the indoor and outdoor divi­ sions. Women's coach John Weaver takes the greatest loss with graduation of Meg Warren. Warren, an All-American javelin thrower, competed in six different events in the outdoor championships. She also held the nation's longest javelin toss throughout her senior year. Coach Bob Pollock's men's team won their fourth consecutive SC title. Outdoors, the men were never even challenged as their closest competitors trailed by over 80 points. Triple jumper Michael Hanks finished third in the national championships last June. Hanks, an Olympic hopeful, returns for his senior season anticipating another All-American output. It's plain to see that the ASU campus is loaded for another run at the Commissioner's Cup. The Cup is awarded to the school for overall athletic excellence. The Apps have virtually owned the trophy, winning it nine times out of the last ten years. Appalachian State students will finally have a place of their own when the Dwight W. Quinn Recreation Center opens August 31. The first two deadline dates, July 15 and August 6, were postponed due to architectural and construction delays. The S3.3 million complex has been the dream of Dr. Jim Avant, ASU's director of Campus Recreation and Intramurals since he first arrived in Boone thirteen years ago. His en­ thusiasm for the building is easily con­ veyed. "What we wanted was a health-spa setting," Avant said. "We had always been second fiddle to academics and other organizations. Now we have first preference with this building." Located across the street from Con­ rad Stadium, the complex rests on the outskirts of campus. Avant hopes this will not deter the student body from making use of the varied activities possible in the Quinn Center. "This is a heck of a place," Avant said. "We are giving the students at­ tention and fellowship. People will go wherever to satisfy their needs. To­ day's students are very affluent and sophisticated, but we are able to ap­ peal to them." Appalachian Photo by Robin Roger Construction workers put the finishing touches on the Quinn Recreation Center. The Quinn Center houses 4,000 square feet of the latest Nautilas weightlifting and fitness equipment as well as free weights. Eight regulation- size racquetball courts will be accessible by reservation. There will be seven hours of aerobic instruction available per day. Appalachian Photo by Robin Rogor THE QUINN DOME: The Quinn Recreation Center's weight room and fitness facilities include 10 Nautilus units, electronic treadmills and bicycles, and up to seven aerobics classes per day. The center, which opens August 31, requires students to present their I.D. Four full basketball courts can easi­ ly be transformed into volleyball, ten­ nis, and badminton courts with two jogging lanes. The court surface is made of Versaturf 360, a synthetic rubber material. Avant is quick to point out the trained supervisory staff which is always on the spot. The staff went through fitness instruction from a na tional YMCA representative. Each participant in the weight room will have his own personal record and be advised of an individual development program by an instructor. "We want to perpetuate a solid wellness program." Avant said. "We have no seats because we don't want to see anyone sitting down. We want to keep people moving. People will be impressed by the 60 trained, excited instructors." "To get the best equipment possi-; ble, several steps had to be taken through the state. We had to submit explanations as to why we were spending so much for equipment. Now we are best able to serve the students' leisure-time pursuits," Avant said. See ACTIVITY Page 13 Ray, Connor injured; Varsity Gym allocated funds for facelift out for App opener Apke sees money as a boost for scheduling By BERRY EPLEY Appalachian Staff Writer Appalachian State basketball got a shot in the arm last week when the North Carolina State Legislature allocated $300,000 to ASU to begin renovations on Varsity Gymnasium. N.C. representative David Dia­ mond, who read about ASU's need for funding in a newspaper article, was a key factor in getting the bill passed for ASU. "We are hoping to get more ap­ propriated," said ASU Athletic Director Jim Garner. "Representative David Diamond was the one who shook that ($300,000) loose for us." Although this money will allow ASU to get things off the ground, Garner, says that more money will still be needed to complete the renova­ tion. "This is only a drop in the bucket, but it will get us off square one," Garner said. "To receive this money is great," said ASU basketball Coach Tom Apke. "It is a first step. This takes us from dreaming and wishing to actual­ ly bringing in the consultants and ar­ chitects. This will serve as seed money for beginning the actual process." Eventually, Varsity Gym will be renovated to more of an arena-style basketball coliseum with chairback seats instead of the current gymnasium-style with pullout bleachers. There are also plans to up­ date both the visitor's and home locker rooms. basketball facility as a key to the Apps' future success on the court and he cited Western Carolina's new Liston B. Ramsey Activities Center as an example. Appalachian Photo by Rich K« I^HIND THE TIMES: Outdated Varsity Gym, no lie t C r ^ a n a k'8 high school gym, finally received I funding from the state for renovations. ASU 1 Athletic Director Jim Garner hopes to eventually establish a 21st-century arena. For the mean time with the $300,000, Garner just wants to catch up with the rest of the conference. "There is no doubt that facilities become a crucial item in recruiting and scheduling good opponents," Apke said. "Western Carolina was able to schedule 18 home games as well as some good competition in their new arena." The need for improvements is cer­ tainly warranted as some would argue that Varsity Gym ranks just above Davidson's Johnston Gym and The Citadel's McAllister Field House as the worst facilities in the Southern Conference. "With Davidson leaving the con­ ference and The Citadel completely renovating McAllister Field House, we will probably have the worst facili­ ty in the conference," Garner said. "I believe that this will bring us up with the rest of the conference. This won't put us ahead of anybody because we were already so far behind, but it will put us on par with most of the con­ ference." "We are excited and looking for­ ward to the challenges this will bring," Apke said. "1 think that this will make us competitive with anybody in the conference or in our area." Apke thanked many people for their efforts in pushing for im­ provements of Varsity Gym. "We have been talking to campus administration and this is the result of many peoples' input," Apke said. Dr. John Thomas and Dr. Alan Howser, our faculty representative, as well as Mr. Garner, have all been helpful." Although the renovation of Varsity Gym is number one on the agenda right now, plans are in the works for other ASU facilities as well. This includes an extension to Owens Field House which will contain a 5,500 square foot weight room as well as new office space. Renovations to ASU's newly dedicated Lackey Field are also on the table. "Last spring the Athletic Council appointed a committee to look at all of our facilities and to bring them into the 21st century," Garner said. "We are already doing feasibility studies, but it all comes to dollars and cents." By TROY DOUGLAS Appalachian Staff Writer Defending Southern Conference champions, Appalachian State, will open their 1987 season in less than two weeks against Divisions 1A in­ dependent South Carolina. "I'm a firm believer that the well conditioned teams have fewer injuries, and when they do sustain in­ juries, they respond better to treatments." Football Trainer Rod Walters A big reason the Apps were successful last year was because they stayed away from the injury bug. On­ ly one starter was lost to the Apps during preseason drills as they posted a 9-2-1 record. This season's camp has been in­ tense, and no fewer than 10 starters have missed practices due to various physical problems. Coach Sparky Woods is concern­ ed, because he feels "the team that stays the healthiest will be successful." Woods is concerned that with all the injuries, depth will be the biggest problem at South Carolina. With only 70 scholarships in Divi­ sion 1A A compared to 95 in Division 1A, the Mountaineers already seem to be outmanned. "Critical is the difference in the two-deep squad (second-team players)," said Woods, "They will be playing with juniors and seniors, and we will be playing with freshmen anc sophomores." See INJURIES Page 12 T O U G H L U C K M I C K : ASU outside linebacker Mickey Ray is again struggling with a bothersome foot injury. No less than 10 Mountaineers have missed practice because of injuries. Though the depth is adequate, it can't carry the Apps through the season. �12 THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY, AUGUST25, 1987 Mountaineers By BERRY EPLEY 35th pick overall in 1986. Hackett went on to become a starter as inside linebacker as well as a folk hero in the Kansas City area. Although none were drafted, the Mountaineers did have six players off last year's 9-2-1 Southern Conference championship team sign free agent contracts with the NFL. Of the six, three remain in camp. Appalachian Staff Writer The past two seasons have proven to be the most successful in Appalachian State football history and signs of this are slowly appearing in the National Football League. The trend began when the Kansas City Chiefs made Dino Hackett their second-round draft choice and the Probably the biggest name to come out of ASU last season was tailback John Settle. Settle, a free agent with the Atlanta Falcons, left ASU with 19 Southern Conference records as well as the league's all-time rushing crown. The competition for running back in Atlanta is stiff with Five quality backs still in camp. Besides Settle, the Falcons have two All-Pros in Gerald Riggs and William Andrews as well as second-round draft pick Kenny Flowers out of Clemson. Also in camp is returning fullback Cliff Austin. A couple of things are in Settle's favor this fall. The Falcons have switched to the two-back offense this season and this will force them to keep an extra back. Atlanta has also been struck down with injuries in the offensive backfield as both Riggs and Flowers are hobbling. Settle had a favorable outing Satur­ day as he saw extensive action against the Kansas Chiefs and former team­ mate Hackett. •: Appalachian Photo by Jim Wolloco ,'J ASU all-time leading rusher, John Settle, is currently in the Atlanta Falcons' camp. in his career. Russell finished with six interceptions and two fumble recoveries to go along with his special teams exploits. Russell has already had the honor of playing in the second annual American Bowl in Wimbley, England. He saw plenty of action in the second half of that game between Denver and the Los Angeles Rams. The Broncos have released one former Mountaineer in tight end Russell Payne. Payne was a three-year starter at ASU but was unable to beat out Joey Hackett (Dino's brother) or Clarence Kay for a spot on the Bronco roster. The Seattle Seahawks are hoping Appalachian tackle Mike Callaway will help bolster a banged-up offen­ sive line.

With the loss of Shelley Laney and Angie Ridgeway, coach Peter Rucker has a great void to plug. •The ladies have already begun prac­ tice at Hound Ears Lodge and Golf Club where Rucker is an Assistant Golf Professional. Rucker points out that the squad is in need of more team members. We do have several spots available," Rucker said. "We would like a few members of the student body to tryout for the team." The ladies' spring schedule is usual­ ly more attractive than the fall schedule. Over the last two years, the squad has spent spring break playing tournaments in Florida. Quinn Center Continued from Page 11 Since students face a somewhat long walk to the facility, day-lockers and showers are on hand. Par. ticipants must bring their own lock. I For those driving, two-hour parking I is available for cars registered with ASU security. ASU identification is I required to enter the building. Another plus for the Quinn Center is that a lot of traffic in Broome-Kirk and Varsity Gyms will be alleviated. Hopefully, those areas will be freed up, although varsity sports still must compete among themselves for floor * space. As with any beginning, Avant is not quite sure what to expect. "We're looking three years down ASU has two returning regulars: Heather Brown and Teresa Call. They will represent the nucleus of the Lady Apps' squad for the coming year. Rucker hopes to have a strong con­ tingent of walk-on golfers to complete his roster. If anyone is interested, Rucker can be contacted at Hound Ears (963-5831) or his home (963-4980). The Lady Apps will begin their season Sept. 11 at Longwood (Va.). Tours are now being offered to help familiarize ASU students and faculty with the facilities. Avant hopes the tours will stimulate the center's reputation by word-of-mouth. The complex will be dedicated September 12 to Quinn. This marks the Fifth building that is a direct result of Quinn's efforts with the North Carolina General Assembly. He has served the General Assembly longer than any representative in its history. ASU awarded Quinn an honorary doctorate of laws degree in 1978. Callaway was originally released by the Seahawks because of his back injury but he was later recalled. Three days after being recalled Callaway had an emergency appendectomy. Because of these injuries, Callaway will spend 1987 on Injured Reserve. In Dallas, Jimmy Armstrong was unable to win a spot on a defensive backfield which includes all-pros Everson Walls and Michael Downs. Tommy Dawkins, a part-time starter at defensive tackle a year ago, was the sixth Mountaineer to sign but was later released by the San Francisco 49ers.

The Faculty Senate proposed a new system under Academic Affairs that would consist of a panel of two students chosen by the Faculty Senate and two faculty members. It would be chaired by another facul­ ty member to try accused students. The student government proposed a plan of their own to leave academic integrity cases in the hands of Student Court and to educate the campus on how to use the current system. Chancellor John Thomas signed a compromise plan very similar to the Faculty Senate's proposal. Although the differences in the approved plan and the proposed Faculty plan appear to be token to appease students, the system can work if properly utilized. To protect themselves and the students, professors are encouraged to gather all evidence of cheating, including copies of papers of surround­ ing pupils, crip sheets, and witnesses' names. The only protection students have is complete honesty. If a student admits to or is found guilty of cheating by the panel, the first offense is noted and will stay on records for five years. A student caught cheating for a second time may be expelled. The penalty for cheating is high. If students govern themselves, the panel will not have to. ASU must learn to use system responsibly You will have noticed the sculptures erected on the campus over the summer; you have no choice. The artists intentionally created these objects to be as conspicuous as possible, and what could be more conspicuous than a tall hunk of rust named Ribbons? Do you as the public have the right not to be bom­ barded by images that you don't want to see? Unlike levision, an has on switch. television, art nas no "off" switcn. On the other hand, does anyone have the right to censor an individual artist's work? That is a clear violation of free speech, isn't it? In Fredericksburg, Virginia recently, Mary Washington College banned an anti-abortion painting because it contained a real, five-month-old fetus. In the February '87 issue of World Free Press, Yevgeny Yetushenko addresses the issues of truth, free speech and art in a way no American can. In describing his efforts at putting the tragedies of the Russian people under Stalin into poetry, he says, "The best of our artists continued to defend society's right to know the truth even if it meant put- ting their lives on the line." The program of the Communist government at that time was to turn art into propaganda for the state. Films and books could only . . paint pretty pic. tures of the lives of the people. While the agricultural workers were starving to death, they were permitted to watch movies which presented them as "happy cossacks" according to Yetushenko. In spite of this atmosphere of suppression, the Soviet artists aia produce films and write poems soviet arnsis did prouuce nuns mm wine yvtma which spoke the truth and represented their time and culture with accuracy. Secretly, these ideas were distributed by word of mouth to the citizens, probably with more impact than any image we are so freely given in our mass media, Our society, in contrast, claims to promote freedom of speech, but the fog of censorship surrounding the art and entertainment industry causes American artists to produce bland, mindless films and blase, symbol-less novels, It is not the government which is hazardous to the truth and aesthetic beauty in America; it is the public. We no longer want to see or hear reality. We do not want to be shocked, exposed, or otherwise confronted with the truth. We do not want especially about ourselves, because we are aN will not like what we see. Because the artist in our country .llU5l must . —, surviv the sale of his or her work, he or she will con • t produce pointless junk until we demand so'1""1 better. ^ Yetushenko continues his article by Sa ' have realized how dangerous shallowness TV ! ficiality are for both the intellectual and development of our country." The point ie<°'101 S' S0C| cannot go forward without truth." In the Soviet Union, the artists, poets and sculptors work to provide an atm'rnnk freedom in which the truth may be presented medium. American artists are slaves to the u dollar and tend to produce works whi? unrealistic. The artist's purpose is to help » 1 from our dull, problem-filled lives instead ? ead°f« fronting them. Art in our culture has become as shalW superficial as any Soviet propaganda. Who ' defend the artist's right to speak freely if all f? has to say is "big piece of ribbon-like rust?"°' A must see y HEATHER PILCHARD Appalachian stiff writer Has all hell broken loose or is there a national sculpture competition (exhibition) on campus? Well, maybe both. Eleven winning sculptures (ten plus the alternate in front of the Jones' House) are scattered across campus, Yahoo! Finally art from the outside world has been made accessible to the students of ASU. My favorite piece in the show is Stone Matrix in front of Farthing Auditorium. Barry Tinsley, the ar­ tist, was the only member of the com­ petition to list "sculpture" as his oc­ cupation. (The others all gave business positions or "college prof.") Tinsley uses simple, iden­ tifiable shapes that are very cartoonish, like the shoe-shape in Matrix. I was fascinated with the surface of the sculpture. It appears to give a tactile sensation, though it is in fact a smooth surface, which made for the interesting effect. Last winter several women were verbally and physically abused on campus. Of the reported cases, one woman was nearly forced into a car by a group of men and another was grabbed from behind under the Ed­ win Duncan octagon. These victims were lucky to escape. Many do not. As the number of incidences continues to rise on this, as well as other campuses, added security is necessary to protect students, faculty and staff. Security officers are employed by the State of North Carolina, which provides a fixed sum of money for their salaries. Therefore, no more security officers can be hired, and student security employees are not permitted to patrol at night. An alternative method of protection has to be found. The blue lights have been strategically placed on campus to offer the best security possible. Anyone feeling threatened at night is able to use the system and notify security immediately. Without this system, continued attacks are imminent and are not likely to prove as minor as they have been in the past. It is the responsibility, however, of the campus community to make this system work.

Greeley Myatt's work, Birdhouse Field w/lightening for Walter, is a fun piece to experience. The sculpture reminds me of props for a play with a dramatic moment happening in scene three. The birds are frightened when lightning hits one of the birdhouses which are placed in neat rows. The setting creates serenity amidst the theatrical drama, Another piece which I think deserves particular attention is William Donnan's Landscape with Joints in front of Newland Hall. The stark imagery illustrates the inspira­ tion from the environment as he perceives it. Georgia^Keefe's paint­ ings immediately reminded me of this work, because she was intrigued by the Arizona landscape, which shares many of the same red-brown colors as Landscape with Joints. Also, I can't help but chuckle at the irony of placing Dark Twist next to the Administration Building The See SCULPTURE Page 15 By SCOTT SIMMONS Appalachian Staff Writer Have you seen the "sculptures" around campus? Have you noticed anything strange about this art? It reeks of childishness. I want to know what twelve-year-old is responsible for this lame excuse for art. Take Ribbons III for example. That's the sculpture that landed in front of Belk Library one afternoon this summer without warning. It may look like a ribbon, but it reminds me of a giant tape-worm that infested Sanford mall. The majority of people I have observed looking at this thing didn't seem to know that this was, in­ deed, art. The Appalachian Summer people could have at least put a plaque on the piece giving the artist's name and title of the work. As it stands now, this sculpture, as well as the others strewn across ASU, mar the land­ scape without apparent reason. On the other hand, the persons responsible for the sculpture in front of the Jones' House in downtown Representational^art not reality Boone have better taste and knowledge of what art is.

This is what art should do, I should make an understandaH statement, create some emotion the audience, or at least touch th observer in some way. Ribbons! does none of these. It is cold an meaningless.

STREET DANCE: About 3,000 people attended Boone's second Street Dance on East King Street Saturday night. Featured performers included the bands Burning Giraffe and Discord. Not The Numbers was scheduled to play, but the lead singer had car trouble and was unable to arrive in Boone. Boone police said there were no major problems Watauga County is relatively free of AIDS vims with the event except for litter. Boone Police Chief Zane Tester said he would like to see a new rule enforcing the restriction of glass containers within the area. "It just makes a mess in the streets," he said. Other features of the event included fire jug­ glers and a parading evangelist. Another street dance is slated for July 4. First Union Bank in ASU's University Bookstore is ten­ tatively scheduled to close on August 7, 1987. First Union Executive Vice President Carol Garland said that regardless of what decision is made, the automatic teller machine (ATM) will remain at the bookstore. "The present facilities are too small," Garland said. "The majority of bank functions are done with the ATM. Students who need to get money from their parents will find it easier to do it with the ATM." Most patrons of the bank have accounts with First Union. The bank charges $1 to those cashing checks that do not have First Union accounts. "The amount of income from cashed checks is near nothing," Garland said. "The fact that most of our customers have First Union accounts and don't get charged the dollar could be a reason for the low income." "We will do everything we can to help keep the bank open," University Bookstore Manager Roby Triplett said. Garland said the bank has plans to open another ATM near the College of Business and expand the main office which is located on Highway 105. "The decision must be made soon," Triplett said. "The presence of a bank on campus is a good plug for freshman orientation." Other First Union branches in Boone are located on East King Street, Highway 321 South and Highway 105. Student sex habits AIDS may be causing changes By DANA SCOTT Appalachian Staff Writer While most people are becoming better educated about AIDS local health officials are concerned that some may not be taking the disease seriously. "ASU students are fairly well aware of how AIDS is transmitted and what happens," Dr. Evan Ashby said. "But there is a lack of awareness that it could happen to them or their friends." To date, there has been only one reported case of AIDS in Watauga County. As much as the Watauga County Health officials know, the person was not infected locally. "So far this is a fairly safe county," Rebecca Scott of the Watauga County Health Department said. "But anywhere people share needles and where there are homosexuals and bisexuals, there are obviously some risks." So far 98 AIDS tests have been administered by the health department. All of the results were negative. AIDS is contracted through the transfer of bodily fluids. Scott said that while AIDS is a major concern, other sex­ ually transmitted diseases are a bigger risk, especially with college students. "They are all preventable by following a few rules," she said. "First know about your partner's sexual history, be monogamous, and use condoms." Health department officials offer handouts and are available to talk to groups about AIDS. AIDS testing is done at the infirmary as well as the health department. Students' concerns about AIDS ap­ parently are not changing their sexual habits, several campus observers said. A poll released recently indicates students' fears about AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome) is ac­ tually slowing their sexual activities, and that virginity may be "back in vogue." Blotnick Associates, a New York polling firm, said its survey of 1,422 students on 12 campuses revealed that 24 percent of the women on campus "think about" sexually transmitted diseases when they choose sex part­ ners. Only 11 percent of the women in a 1977 Blotnick survey said they were concerned about such diseases. Only six percent of the men on campus consider the disease a factor in choosing sex partners, compared to four percent of the men in 1977. "Many men still (choose) the 'live dangerously, high-risk* sex," Scrully Blotnick, who conducted the research, said. The men's responses closely resem­ ble the findings of a recent Stanford Health Clinic study of student sex habits. Stanford found that about a third of the students they questioned "do not know what 'safe sex' practices are, and even many who do know don't use them," the report said. Almost three out of four students, moreover, don't ask their partners about their health before engaging in sexual intercourse. Various campus health officials around the country, while without any statistics to back them up, said they think Stanford's students are more typical than Blotnick's. "We haven't noticed any recent changes in students' sexual attitudes, at least not in relation to AIDS," Dr. Mary Watts of the University of Washingtion Women's Clinic, said. "Over the years, from the 1960s to the 1980s, there's been a trend toward less promiscuity, but it's not related to AIDS. There hasn't been enough publicity yet about the disease to make students aware," she added. "The conservatism of students to­ day has probably protected them from a widespread outbreak of the disease. And only .04 percent of heterosexuals are at risk, so they don't see it as the great risk it will be in years to come." While others agree sexual conser­ vatism on campuses is high, they add­ ed students also are aware of AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases and the fear is making students cautious. "That fear is definitely reflected in the decline in the amount of pro­ miscuity and in the incidence of general venereal disease," Dr. Don Cooper, director of student health at Oklahoma State University said. "The AIDS scare helped that. Students are more selective about their sexual partners, more monogamous," he added. "More often, they're using condoms when they have sex, and that is causing a decline in venereal disease."

I know there are so many outstanding women on this campus and in the community, I feel honored that I won it." Jane Nicholson, vice chairperson of the Watauga Council on the Status of Women and chairperson of the Public Education Commit­ tee, which is in charge of selecting women of the month said anyone could nominate a woman who is outstanding in her contribu­ tions to the community to receive the award. Mary Bea W hisonant "We're looking for involvement and basically a well-rounded background," Nicholson said. "We chose Mary Bea because of her involvement in academics as well as campus life. Her work in the student govern­ ment has been outstanding." "We've had this program for several years," Nicholson added. "There are many outstand­ ing women in the community. Hopefully the women we do select are representative of all of the outstanding women." Whisonant, a senior at ASU, is currently chairperson of the Student Affairs Committee in SGA and an honors student. Next year she will attend the University of South Carolina Law School. In Brief Cocaine arests made Former ASU student and basket­ ball player James Carlton was arrested Friday April 24 on cocaine trafficking charges. Carlton and two other men, Carmine Robert Scarfone, 24, of Boone, and Timothy Marrow, of Burlington, were arrested in connec­ tion with the bust. Boone Police Chief Zane Tester has described the bust as the largest ever in Boone. He also said more arrests are expected in connection with the incident. Carlton is currently free on $30,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in court tomorrow. Free ice cream offered ASU Food Services and Coble Dairy are sponsoring a free ice cream giveaway tomorrow and Thursday.

The Playboy Advisor on Love and Sex is his latest book. It is basically a compilation of ten years of columns, organized under one cover. Peterson has also compiled The Playboy's Readers Sex Survey, "an accounting of the sexual preferences, interests and attitudes of almost 100.000 people." Television appearances include: the Phil Donahue Show, Late Night With David Letterman, Men Griffin, Hour Magazine, The Larry King Show and the Tomorrow Show with Tom Snvder. Peterson graduated from Trinity College in Hartford with a bachelor of arts degree in English. He started his career as a musician and toured with a jug band. When the band didn't succeed, he later landed a job as assistant editor of Psychology Today. The job of editing other people's work soon bored Peterson and he later was hired as an editor of Playboy.

We are winning. yAMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY Local band The Other Side performs at a party before Saturday's street dance. Bands slated for senior party By KEN JONES Assistant Diversions Editor H'Appy's and A.P.P.S. have plan­ ned a party for ASU's graduating seniors on May 7. The Pressure Boys, a band from Chapel Hill, will perform at 8:45 p.m. followed by Sidewinder at 10:30 p.m. The event is free for seniors and $3 for all other students. Tickets for seniors can be picked up at the Stu­ dent Union Ticket Booth from noon-4 p.m. today and Wednesday. All other students can purchase their tickets Wednesday and Thurs­ day at the same location. The Pressure Boys have played the local club circuit about six years. They have released two LP's, both of which are produced by former R.E.M. producer, Mitch Easter. Their first LP, "Jump! Jump! Jump!" was released in 1983 and has received air time on several stations. Although the second record, "Rangledoom," is shorter than their first LP, its release has met with critical acclaim. Don Dixon, who produced albums for R.E.M. and The Smithereens, has been asked to produce the Pressure Boys' new album. The group will be promoting their new album during their hour-long set Thursday night. Sidwinder, originally from Raleigh, has long been popular on the local cir­ cuit. The band gained national recognition by performing on the television show "Star Starch," where they placed as runner-up in the com­ petition. Sidewinder plays mainstream rock music. Director of Student Programs Dave Robertson said that Sidewinder's music will be a change of pace from The Pressure Boys, but that the two styles of music should draw a larger crowd. "By booking two bands with diverse styles, most students' taste in music will be satisfied," Robertson said. "In the past, Sidewinder has always drawn a big crowd at H'Appy's, so students are urged to buy their tickets now." Forest Service. U.S.D.fl. FAST 1-X»(>1X WITH STYLE."

Take two local bands, add about 3,000 students and townspeople, block off a street; you've got one of the best parties of the year. Students and townspeople were walking around, listening to the bands, and talking. Yes, talking. You know, students to students, students to townspeople, townspeople to students. This was the second street dance held in Boone. The first -such dance was held last fall, and attracted a smaller, but similar crowd. Both dances were sponsored by the Jones House Community Center. Boone Chief of Police Zane Tester credited ASU students with the lack of problems during the event. "All students were very cooperative," Tester said. Boone police officers prepared well for the dance. There was "a lot of visual man power and a secure perimeter," Tester said. Tester said that the only problem with the dance was litter. He indicated that he wished everyone had taken care of their own trash. Tester said that the only change he would like to see made is that the rules for the next street dance include prohibiting bot­ tled beverages or glass containers within the designated area. "It just makes a mess in the streets," he said. "There is always the concern that bottles could be broken, and someone could be hurt by the broken glass." Tester said that he felt the street dance is a good way to promote College involvement brings many rewards Sophomore year. Students have made it through the trials and tribulations of being a treshman, taking on a new environment and dealing with personal freedom. You become a sophomore and the educational burdens become more tiresome, and you figure you'll never get through school with this tremendous workload. Wait until you're a senior, they tell you. All kinds of free time, very little work, you just wait around for graduation day. Maybe if you plan it right, but it's doubtful. My sophomore year I began writing for the newspaper. I wanted to do everything and be in everything. My school workload was rough, but I thought I could balance it all. Why not? After all, I was a college student. I made it through my sophomore year classes without a scratch and climbed up the staff ladder at the paper. Junior year—Assistant and News Editor—the class load stayed the same. I am a double major in English and Polticial Science, so I had no room for electives. I was having a great time, and I was still excited about college and glad I was surviving the experience. I learned things about myself I never knew, and I felt like I was learning a little about life at the same time. I could tell I was changing though—albeit for the good, a change is a change. I may have come to college with rose-colored glasses on, but I certainly wasn't going to leave with them still intact. I was also encouraged by the thought at the end of my junior year that I was going to be a senior the next fall. It was finally here—the easy breezy senior year. I was moving into the Features section at the paper to gain new insight on the industry at the end of fall semester—a semester that wasn't so bad, not easy or breezy, but not bad. The easy part was supposed to come this semester. Ha! No chance for "senioritis" in my case. Easy and breezy aren't quite the words I would use to describe it. But then who am I? And it isn't just me, most of my friends who are seniors are having the same problem, not a minute's rest, although I guess most of my friends are like me—workaholics. I suppose it is all my own fault. I probably did do this to myself. I mean, I didn't have to get involved in these things, nobody forced me, no one pointed a gun at my head. But I wouldn't change it for anything. The knowledge I've gained surpasses the rest and relaxation that I could have gotten in any amount of free time I may have had if I hadn't gotten involved. I've learned a lot and laughed and cried a lot. I've made some wonderful friendships that I hope will last a long time. Nothing I could have done in these four years can replace the feeling I have knowing I've been doing something I like and hopefully, will continue to do. 1 pass the ominous black pen on to those who will be here to take my place. I'll miss Boone, yes. I never thought I'd say those words either. If you are a sophomore or freshman and reading this—you're in the same place I was three or four years ago—don't make the mistake of just wanting to pay your dues and get out into the real world. College is a lot more than just the grades you get. Of course they are important, but the worldly knowledge you gain and the innocence you lose is what will make the boy a man and the girl a woman. student-community relations. "I saw a lot of community-college com­ munication," Tester said. He also said that he felt this was enhanced by the way the police department han­ dled the crowd. The department cir­ culated plain-clothes officers among the participants to ensure that no fric­ tion was building and that everyone maintained a friendly atmosphere. The party started at about 7 p.m. The first band to perform was Burn­ ing Giraffe (formerly Dionysian Tapestry), followed by Discord. Not the Numbers was scheduled to play, but cancelled due to a problem with transportation. After police asked the crowd to clear the area at 11 p.m., parties con­ tinued at the various restaurants which stayed open after the dance. Our Daily Bread owner, Bob Mowery, said, "I thought it (the dance) was very good." He said that he was pleased that the street was cleaned up that night. At St. Sinner's a crowd gathered after the dance to enjoy a keg, kabobs cooked outside and an impromptu performance by an unidentified guitarist. Apollo's kept a party alive until after 2:30 a.m. with a band called the Killer Bees entertaining the patrons. ASU's outgoing SGA President, Todd Campbell, received an award form Mayor Larry Keeter early in the evening for his contributions to ASU and the campus community. Sheila Yost, coordinator of the street dance, said she felt that the whole event was a big success. "There were no problems, and everyone got along well," she said. "We have another dance planned for July 4th and Parent's Day. I think these events See DANCE Page 6 18* ""-Wit %% Appalachian Photo by Mko^ Discord plays for excited crowd during Street Dance. Greek activities promote enthusiasm By DEANNA L. ANDREWS Appalachian Staff Writer Enthusiasm ran high among ASU Greeks last week, as they participated in the Greek Week ac­ tivities. Greek Week is like a week long field day. Various events were scheduled Monday through Fri­ day where the sororities and fraternities compete against one another. At the end of the last event on Friday the sorority and fraternity with the most ac­ cumulated points were named Greek Week champ­ ions. The sorority champs this year are Chi Omega and fraternity winner was Sigma Nu. The events began on Monday evening with the Greek Sing.

Photo by Job" A**"* Opportunities for graduates show promise Watauga SpringFest By AMEE SMITH Appalachian Staff Writer As May 17 approaches, many graduates will be faced with the realities of adult life, and particularly tinding a job. Dr. David Ball of the Office of Career Planning and Placement said, "The market looks good, like it did last year. Appalachian graduates are held in high esteem, evidenced by the number of recruiters visiting the university." About 150 government agencies and corporate recruiters visit the ampus in the fall and spring with a ntui ly 20 percent success hiring rate. In addition, more than 80 school systems recruit ASU's student teachers. Career counseling, an addition to the placement program, aids students in the mechanics of job hunting and assessing their personal skills. Kathy Sack, a career counselor, said, "Larger companies are cutting back on hiring while a lot of smaller com­ panies are growing. This is a hidden job market that students should be aware of, because they don't recruit at colleges. Students should use a variety of job seeking skills, starting early, because, nationally, only 13 percent of students interviewed actually get a job from that alone." Most important for students to realize, Sack said, is to not wait until their second semester senior year to start searching for a job. "Students should see a career counselor in order to find skills and interests directed towards their career to enhance that choice," she said. Ball suggests three steps in finding a job that will lead to a fulfilling life in the working world. Find a major in which you are interested; pursue a career in which you are interested; and be flexible in your geographical preference and career choice. Ball reminds students that, "the labor market doesn't always adjust to us, we have to adjust to the labor market." The Office of Career Planning and Placement provides services in career counseling, student employment, job search skills while providing a career library and graduate school informa­ tion. Three career fairs are held two times a year in the fall and spring. Government affairs, communica­ tions, and student teaching are the career fairs held in the Student Union. These fairs provide the students with the opportunity to discuss career planning with professionals from their respective field. The College Placement Council Salary Survey surveys 164 placement offices and 143 colleges and univer­ sities throughout the United States, reporting on job offer and salary trends for the year. The College Placement Council states that more employers are making offers to humanities graduates. The overall number of offers made to bachelor's degree candidates, however, dropped by 30 percent compared with a year ago. The number of offers extended to technical bachelor's degree candidates fell 43 percent compared to last year. The aerospace industry continued to provide the greatest concentration of offers to technical candidates at 17 percent of the total. The electronic machinery and equipment industry follows with 16 percent.

SpringFest Continued from Page 4 The festival's purpose is to bring together the many different aspects of the community. "What we're trying to do with the festival is to make it a spring celebration of all the energies and activities that this community has. This is practically the only place that the diversion elements of the community get together at one time," Hyde said. He also said that this year's turn-out was down slightly. "The turn-out so far this year has been a little light. I think the reason is because it has been so pretty outside, but generally, in the past, we have had between 15 and 25 thousand people at the festival over two days." The festival is jointly funded by Watauga County, the town of Boone, and ASU. It is a totally non-profit operation. community-college relations. The su cess of the dance stands as evidence that townspeople and students are able to enjoy one another, and that the presence of alcoholic beverages does not have to mean chaos and discipline problems. People (whether you are from Boone or you just plan to live here for four years) can talk, dance and party together. It's been proven, and it is about time!

The question can best be answered through the outlined objec­ tives which corporate fitness and recreation administrators have developed. First, there is a bottom line profit expected in return for the services offered. Corporations are in a business venture and any time there is expense or effort given, this must relate to the profitability of the com­ pany in one way or another. Second­ Hf HERE THEY ARE! T-SHIRTS FROM HfcU! ly, fitness and recreation programs provide wholesome outlets which help make workers more enthusiastic, loyal and productive members of the organizational team. Most companies want their employees to be alive, if not robust, and recognize the economic impor­ tance of keeping people satisfied and productive on the job. In cold dollars and cents terms, it is extremely expen­ sive for a company to lose services of both seasoned and promising executives or employees to incapacitating illnesses. In addition to personal fitness gains, many pro­ grams become key factors in produc­ tivity by giving the individual status and recognition, as well as improving their morale. Another realized benefit is the general improvement of employer-employee relations. Employees perceive the company to be sincerely interested in their per­ sonal health and well being, often leading to enhanced employee loyalty, satisfaction, and efficiency. Morale is boosted in most cases, and active physical programs allow for the positive release of surplus energy thus relieving stress and work related pressure. Creating changes in the fitness levels of employees is often the most important objective of corporate pro­ grams, and these objectives are reached through the medium of recreational sports, aerobics, strength training and leisure skill development. A total lifestyle approach is generally taken by corporate programmers, and offerings often include sessions on weight control, nutrition, stress con- Corporate leisure and wellness programs have developed into a multibillion dollar leisure service delivery system, estimated by some experts to be over a six billion dollar annual commitment. trol, and smoking cessation. By implementing this lifestyle approach, it is hoped that employees will engage in healthful behaviors during their non-work or leisure time.

CHAMPAIGN-URBANA, IL (CPS)—What may have been the last of the great student illegal drugfests ended in a drizzle April 22, falling victim to Mother Nature and students' changing attitudes about drugs. University of Illinois' 10th annual Hash Wednesday celebration was rainedout April 15 and April 22, and bad weather spoiled the bash last year after a near record turnout in 1985. Observers say the tradition could be doomed. "It's been two years since there was any crowd at Hash Wednesday," Cathy Reed, UI student government president said. "It may fade after two'years of not having it. The student population turns over every four years, and people forget these things." Hash Wednesday, and similar events on other campuses, originated in the 1970s as a protest against marijuana laws. Students gathered on campus property to smoke pot, defying laws against marijuana use. Campus security and administrators usually let the revelers have their day, policing the outdoor celebrations, but making few arrests. This year, Illinois officials warned that students participating in Hash Wednesday risked arrest or disciplinary action, but a UI official admits "the university always warns against violations, but in reality, they always stand back and just let it happen to avoid confrontations." In recent years, however, the protests turned into parties peopled with beerdrinkers, pseudo hippies, and significant numbers of non-student participants. And, as Bob Dylan said, "The times, they are a-changin'." The University of Maryland's annual "smoke-in" disappeared several years ago, probably for lack of interest, a UM spokeswoman said. "In the 1970s, the event drew lots of students," Roz Hiebert said. "But, as 1 recall, the last one drew 30 or 40 students out of a student body of 37,000." In 1982, University of Michigan officials declared the annual "Hash Bash officially dead when only several hundred participants—mostly area high school students and residents—turned out. "These things are always free-form events, they're not planned by organized groups," Illinois news director Terry Shepard said. "My impression is that in the last 10 years, these things changed from legalization protests to spring parties." Indeed, the students themselves, and their drug use patterns have changed as well. While cocaine use among college students has leveled off in recent years, marijuana use is falling, according to a report by University of Michigan researchers. In 1985, the proportion of college students reporting marijuana use in the preceding month was 24 percent, down from 33 percent in 1981. Forty-two per­ cent of college students reported smoking pot in the past year in 1985, down from 51 percent in 1981.

Ice hockey, basketball, baseball, golf, tennis, auto racing and horse racing are all now in fierce competition with each other for spectators and television dollars. It's all a little too much for my taste. Give us a break. Even the most dedicated sports fan can't find enough hours in a day to con­ sume that many professional sports. The logjam of pro sports at this time of year is really an outgrowth of a big­ ger problem: most pro sports seasons are too long. Professional basketball's season lasts from October until June. That's 82 regular season games plus a possibility of 26 playoff games for the eventual champion. The idea of 108 games in a nine month period is a few too many dunks for me. The major league baseball season overlaps at the beginning and the end of the basketball season. That includes 162 regular season games, plus the playoffs and World Series. Ever hit a baseball in 30 degree weather? Don't. The National Hockey League's season runs during roughly the same time span as the NBA's. Ice hockey in May? A little bit ridiculous, huh? Good thing they play indoors. NASCAR's racing season lasts from February through November. C'mon, how many left turns can a person stand in a year's time? Pro golf's season is about the same. Touring pros go to Florida and play un­ til the weather gets warm everywhere else. I wonder if people in Montana play golf in February? I'm not trying to chastise any of these sports. My attempt is to point out that—while these sports are all enjoyable—too much of anything lessens its value. Free Agents Could Bring Some Respect To ASU Football While ASU's football team is coming off its best season ever, last week's NFL draft showed that our players still don't have the respect they deserve. Six seniors from last year's SC championship squad have since signed free agent contracts, so obviously the NFL teams feel that we have some talent. Why the lack of respect in the draft? Even Dino Hackett (who now stars for the Kansas City Chiefs) wasn't taken first round. Now that may look like a smart move for the Chiefs, but it could mean that they (along with other teams) have their talent prioritized incorrect­ ly. After all, in 1985 the Chiefs took Ethan Horton with their first round pick. Maybe the only way ASU will get any respect is for this year's signees to follow the lead of Hackett and former App player Leroy Howell and play for a while in the league. At any rate, the six Mountaineer players who have signed contracts are: John Settle (Atlanta), Mike Callaway (Seattle), Jimmy Armstrong (Dallas), Tommy Dawkins (San Francisco), Russell Payne and Darryl Russell (Denver). wish them luck, for their sakes and for future ASU draftees. The 1987 ASU football squad con­ cluded their spring drills with the an­ nual Black and Gold scrimmage on Saturday afternoon. The Gold team defeated the Black, 38-14, in a game that was much closer than the score might indicate. As usual, the Gold team's victory means they will dine on steaks, while their Black counterparts feast on beans and franks. Offensively, the Gold was led by quarterback Todd Payton, and tailbacks Ritchie Melchor and Tim Sanders. Payton completed 12-of-22 passes for 196 yards and two TD's. His favorite target was David Parker, who hauled in four of those aerials for 81 yards and a score. "It was a goal of ours to improve our passing game, and 1 think we did that," said head coach Sparky Woods. "We (the coaching staff) knew that David Parker was a good receiver, he just picked the spring game to showcase his talents." Melchor and Sanders led the Gold ground attack as they rushed for 93 and 91 yards, respectively. the fourth quarter to pull within 17-14 on Pelham's 24-yard TD reception from Laurendine. On the ensuing drive, the Gold found themselves with a third and 10 situation. Receiver coach Stan Hixon, who "was call it" sent in a flea flicker trick play. The play was a success—although the defender deflected the ball—as Parker reeled it in falling to the ground. Receiver Wardell Jefferson then beat his man for a 42 yard touchdown reception and Bjorn Nittmo's extra point made the score 24-14. John Settle (RB) Atlanta Falcons Dallas Cowboys Darryl Russell (DB) Denver Broncos Kenny Blacknell, Lester Glanton;' Sam Sanders and Quincy "Rhino" Bethea were the leaders of the Gold defensive unit.

Doug Beaty was also a favorite target of Laurendine as he led all receivers with six grabs for 82 yards.

Jimmy Armstrong (DB) Has shown signs of brilliance. At 6-4, 270, he has the size to play in NFL. Rushing the quarterback is his biggest plus. Appalachian State concluded its spring practice with Saturday's Black-Gold game. Apps gmb Six Mountaineers look to NFL By MIKE SMITH Appalachian Sports Kditor Despite the fact that no Appalachian State football seniors were picked in last Tuesday's NFL draft, it does not mean the Apps will not be represented when the 28 teams begin tryouts. At least six former Mountaineers off the 1986 Southern Conference championship squad signed free agent contracts and three others may get a look from NFL teams. Running back John Settle, told by some scouts he might go as high as the fourth round in the draft, signed with the Atlanta Falcons. Miami, Pitts­ burgh and Dallas were also said to be among Settle's options. Jimmy Armstrong, a 5-8 defensive back known for his malicious licks on opponents' wide receivers, signed with the Dallas Cowboys. This marks the second consecutive year an ASU alumnus has gotten a free-agent tryout with the Cowboys. Punter Mark Royals was cut by Dallas last season. The Seattle Seahawks have signed 6-6, 275-pound offensive lineman Mike Callaway. Callaway was hurt by his performance at the rookie com­ bine camp because of his nagging back problems, but his stellar pass blocking skills will be his greatest asset going into the tryout. It appears the Denver Broncos will have two Mountaineers in their camp. Defensive back Darryl Russell is fly­ ing to Denver Wednesday to sign with the Broncos. Also committing to the Broncos is Russell Payne. Payne was a tight end for the Apps, but will be moved to linebacker or a blocking back position. Perhaps the most surprising signing was that of defensive lineman Tommy Dawkins. He was picked up by the San Francisco 49ers. Dawkins was always a steady performer in the trenches for ASU, but his chances of sticking with an NFL club were considered unlikely. Pondering the chance to tryout with a club is wide receiver Troy Douglas. Douglas, respected for his vacuum-like hands, must impress the coaches with his precise routes since his best 40-yard-timing is just 4.7. He is currently in search of an agent. Running back Cliff Reid failed to make the Cleveland Browns' roster last year. If propositioned by an^IFL team, he said he would accept the offer to tryout. Former ASU defensive lindman Leroy Howell has skipped through a few NFL cities without sticking wjth a club. He was last with the Minnesota Vikings in 1986. His plans for' the coming season are unknown. * The App players are somewhatyortunate not to have been picked fciter than the seventh or eighth round? As free agents, they can pick the team they wish to try out with and search for the highest paying offer. There is not much deviation from the sallies of the low-round picks to that of free agents.

KRISTIN HI I.I EGAS Advertising Hell week The obvious solution would be to lengthen the exam week, although its feasibility is questionable. Other UNC schools have about two weeks of exams a period that is already over for some students. However, a longer period would cut into class time; the abundance which is one of ASU's major strengths. This solution could create inconvenient lapses of time in which students had no academic work to perform. Regardless, the problems that have been created at least suggest that ASU seriously consider altering its overly condensed exam period. A higher quality means of evaluation is more valuable than a few less ftours in class. | Threatening policy LIFE IN UdtjL violence. The artist's political determination to work for liberation from a specific type of violence is what distinguishes her individual message of peace. The women of "Window Peace" are speaking out about the wars that are being waged upon this planet. Here, the word waged is meant literally, because war creates money. In fact, the political economy of patriarchal capitalism, as most adeptly expressed in the United States, functions, primarily, by and for capital that is generated from war. War is the expression of violence. Violence is the act of violation. There are numerous types of violations that comprise human life on earth; therefore, war is expressed through this diversity of violations. The kind of war/violence that "Window Peace" artists have chosen to focus on include 1) En­ vironmental war—this is manifest as violations to the integrity of the environment and functions through the production and consumption of goods that destroy or toxify the earth specifically nuclear waste generated from nuclear power and nuclear weaponry. 2) The war on women—this is main­ tained through the patriarchal institutions of pros­ titution, pornography, rape, incest, and maledetermined reproductive technologies, all of which violate women's authority over their minds and bodies. 3) The war on non-white peoples through racist ideologies that are perpetuated by economic and political discriminations and oppressions. There are, unfortunately so many more ways that violence outs in human society. Just as there is a common thread which weaves through the artists' diverse messages of peace, there is an underlying theme present in all forms of violence/war, as well. This is the theme of dualistic/oppositional thinking. All war, violence, acts of violation, are the result of oppositional think­ ing—which informs (i.e. puts actions.

THE must meet a ticket quota to keep his job, Social Services employees had to find enough abuse cases to warrant the government funding which paid their salaries. There weren't enough. Every child who had been spanked was hauled away, slapped in a foster home, and its parents taken to court. Soon children learned to threaten their parents with, "If you don't let me (drink, smoke, go to the Bon Jovi concert, etc.) I'll tell Social Services that you beat me." And, without in­ vestigating, Social Services will believe the child due to the theory that children do not lie about such mat­ ters. This is not an isolated problem. In Watauga County, more than one in­ nocent adult has lost a child and/or gone to prison for a false abuse case. More than one child's life has been ruined because it cannot be disciplin­ ed and now has a government institu­ tion for parents. You students of Appalachian can think this is not your problem. You are neither a child nor a parent, yet. Suppose at a party you meet an 18-year-old-looking 14-year-old. You refuse the sexual advances of the minor, and rightly so. It's highly il­ legal to engage in any sexual behavior with a minor. You could go to prison for at least seven years.

West's letter in the April 28th edition of The Appalachian, under the caption "Leftists Never Talk About Sandinistas." Mr. West says that the leftists who condemn the Contras fail to mention the civil rights violations of "their Sandinista buddies." Immediately, we see that West makes the mistake of assuming that all those who oppose the Con­ tras support the Sandinistas. West also says that "leftists scream about private organizations aiding the contras, but leftists organiza­ tions continue to channel vast amounts of aid to the Sandinistas." He says that the fact that U.S. based organizations like Witness for Peace send money to Nicaragua shows hypocrisy of leftists. However, the $320,000 he says was sent in 1985 for non-military aid and is nothing compared to the millions sent by our government for lethal aid for tfie Contras. West's stereotyping of all civilian groups aiding im­ poverished Nicaragua as leftist groups is unreasonable. He ignores the reasons groups attempt to help Nicaragua, such as poverty, Which has been intensified by the Contra war and U.S.economic sanctions.

Obviously, terrorizing civilians is 3 morally acccptible way to influence the governlent of another country. If the people of the U.S. are afraid of the Sandinistas we should begin negotiations with them to ensure that hey remain within their own borders without a Soviethlock presence. This type of agreement is a part of the Contadora Peace Process, sponsored by eight Central and South American nations. The Sandinistas have of­ fered to enter these negotiations with the U.S., but not wilh the Contras until they disarm. (It is not surprising ,hat the Sandinistas insist on excluding the Contras from negotiations until they disarm. Before the arms-forhostages deal to Iran, the U.S. also refused to negotiate with terrorists.) But the U.S. refuses to negotiate with the Sandinistas unless the Contras are present, regardless 0f their military status. The reason this "leftist" opponent of the Contras never talks about the Sandinistas is that neither 1 nor my government, for which I am responsible, finances Sandinista repressions—only those of the Contras.

AACSB also suggested that faculty recruitment "could possibly be enhanced with a more unified recruiting plan." The report also expressed problem with personnel in the areas of research and publication. "There is not a reasonable crosssection of faculty engaged in research and publication," the report states. "Approximately 40-50 percent of the total faculty have not recently engag­ ed in research activity, publication or scholarly activity." "We need to get a large portion of our tenured faculty or those people who should be providing the leader­ ship involved in demonstrated research outputs," Combs said. "It's not a matter of getting those who are active to do more, but it's getting more faculty to be active." First Union branch to close By LOU WRAY Appalachian Sliff Writer First Union Bank in the ASU bookstore is closing. "A reported loss of $72,000 by the bank this past year is the reason for them moving out," bookstore manager Roby Triplett said. The branch bank has served ASU students since 1974. Services include: withdrawal of funds, check balance, payments, transfer of funds and check cashing. "Every 45 seconds someone cashes A memo of the probation has been sent to faculty within the business school. "I want the faculty to understand that the major problem that we have to face, deal with and fix is the pro­ blem of getting a larger number of faculty involved in a balanced pro­ gram of research along with their in­ structional activities," Combs said. He also said some faculty have planned to resign from the college of business, but not because of the ASCSB's allegations. "Some faculty that are leaving felt it was their responsibility to read that memo to their students and to also say that we are losing our accreditation. That's not what's happening though," Combs said. a check, which costs the bank," Triplett said. "The bank charges a dollar to those who do not have an account with them, but the majority of the checks cashed are from people with accounts. Therefore, there is little income." There has been no speculation of another bank opening on campus, but First Union is leaving the automatic teller machine located outside of the bookstore. "ASU has no check cashing policy on campus and there are not any plans for one at this time," Triplett said. "Students who are sent money from home or have other types of checks to cash will have to seek out other alternatives." Other First Union branches in Boone are located on: King Street, Highway 321 South, Highway 105 and Locust Street. "I wish there was some justifica­ tion that the bank could see to keep the branch at the bookstore open," Triplett said. "It's going to be a great loss for the students." Students wait in line at First Union's campus branch. •iology department adopts new policy to curtail bomb threats By TRENT HUFFMAN Appalachian Slaff Writer In response to four bomb threats on Ranking Hall this semester, the Biology Department has developed a ilicy concerning the disruption of classes. "If the reason for the bomb threats has been to avoid a test one hasn't prepared for or for getting out of class for whatever reason, this policy aakes it clear that it isn't going to *ork," Dr. Jeffery Butts, chairper­ son of the Biology Department said. The policy states that all exams will j* given on schedule. Students in classes that have an exam that has been disrupted will meet their instruc­ tor at the front door of the greenhouse to receive directions about the location of their class. Any student missing an exam af­ fected by a bomb threat will receive a zero for the exam unless the student presents an official excuse of illness or the student has made previous ar­ rangements with his professor to miss the exam. Also, any class without an exam that is interrupted by a bomb threat or false fire alarm will be automatical­ ly rescheduled to 8 p.m. the same evening. If more than one class period is interrupted, the second class period will begin at 9 p.m. and the third at 10 p.m. All students will be required to attend the rescheduled classes. Three of the four bomb threats to Rankin this semester came in three successive class days. One bomb threat was called in each of the two days before Easter break and one was called in the following Tuesday. ASU Security did not evacuate the building on the last bomb threat. "I think not evauating was evidence of (Security's) frustration," Butts said. "All of them seem to be coinciden­ tal with exams scheduled," Butts said. "We've not really had that many before. This latest series caught everybody's attention." "I applaud that policy. I think if you take away the reward system, that will in some way curtail it. I think the faculty have been frustrated as the students have been," Dr. David Mclntire, Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs, said. "(Bomb threats) in my opinion is the single largest concern we've had on the campus this semester. The whole educational process has been thwarted," Mclntire said. "Any stu­ dent caught making a bomb threat should expect to be immediately suspended," he added. Students apprehended for making a bomb threat are arrested and jailed. Their cases are heard both in the Watauga County courts and in Stu­ dent Court. Butts drafted the policy and presented it at the last biology depart­ mental staff meeting. "If anything, it is more lenient that what I drafted." Butts said. "After we completed it, it was voted upon and accepted by the departmental faculty," he added. Butts said that bomb threats are something that cannot be tolerated in an academic setting. "I think it's un­ fortunate that policies have to be designed to handle situations that should never occur," Butts said. "They are a real problem," Roy Tugman, Director of ASU Security, said. "The more we report on it the more we have so I have no report to make in reference to bomb threats," he said.

The two-block area of E. King Street between Hunt's and the Hallmark shop and Grand Boulevard will be closed off for the dance and the stage will be in front of the Jones House. Several restaurants will be open to provide refreshments for the public. All city ordinances and ABC boaid rules will be enforced. Alcoholic beverages will be permitted within the restricted area. "I prefer everyone to have (alcohol) beverages in a cup," Boone Police Chief Vane Teeter said. "This is the first spree this year," Yost said. She said the event is an "end of the year" celebration which she hopes will be a continuation of the good relationship between the Boone community and ASU. "This is a good thing the town can do for the students that they can take advantage of," she said. "This is a good indication where Boone is going in tightening the relationship with the students." Several car and residence hall robberies have been reported to the ASU Security Office this semester. Over Easter break two VCRs, three speaker sets, two cassette decks, a receiver, a microwave, a television set and a turntable were taken from second, third, fourth and seventh floor lobbies in Cannon Residence Hall. The ASU Security Office is also investigating several car robberies that occurred over the past semester. Cannon Hall Resident Director Jim Edwards, said the stolen equipment was owned by the Kappa Delta, Delta Zeta, Alpha Delta Pi and Chi Omega sororities. The value of the equipment was estimated at $1,800. "There was no sign of forceable entry anywhere," captain Paul Issacs, the investigating officer said. "We don't have anyone apprehended yet, but we are working on it," Director of ASU Security Roy Tugman, said. "I was really surprised to find out when 1 got back," Edwards said. "The sororities really put a lot of work and care into their halls. It's kind of frustrating because of all the money and hard work the sororities put into their floors. It would prob­ ably have to have been someone who knew something about Cannon." "I think it's a shame that it hap­ pened. It's obviously something that had been planned out," president of the Alpha Delta Pi sorority Lisa Joyner said. Edwards said that before the residence hall staff leaves for breaks all the doors and windows are checked. "All the doors are checked to make sure they're locked. I couldn't tell you how the burglars got in here," Edwards said. In an attempt to curtail car rob­ beries, Security is planning to install a closed circuit television monitoring system in the perimeter parking lots near the Continuing Education Center. Tugman said there would be a five-month delay on the installation because he was having trouble getting equipment compatible with the university cable system. "We haven't had any real rash of car robberies. It's been less than usual and I attribute that to the fact that I hired a temporary person last semester to patrol the parking lots," Tugman said. Most of the car robberies, which involved the stealing of tape decks and radios, occurred in the perimeter parking lots. "We have made some charges in reference to breaking and entering but the people were not students," Tugman added. The action is still pending in the Watauga County courts. Senate suggests improvements By TRENT HUFFMAN Appalachian Slaff Writer The SGA Senate approved a pro­ posal at its meeting Tuesday night to support several recommendations to renovate the Plemmons Student Union. Sarella Kilpatrick, a member of the Student Union Advisory Council, said that the proposed additions in­ clude new curtains, carpet and chairs for Our House; a display cabinet to replace the lockers on the first floor; lounge chairs in the mini-mall area; and clocks in all meeting and con­ ference rooms. Further renovations include recovering the furniture, recarpeting, and enclosing an area of the Skylight Lounge for meetings and studying. "We're probably talking about $70,000 to $100,000 which is not that much money considering the first ma­ jor renovation was four years ago in the Pub," Larry Trivette, manager of the Student Union, said. "I think that every one of these proposals are good and will benefit the student body," SGA Vice Presi­ dent Bill Cannell said. These proposals will be taken to Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Dr. David Mclntire to request fun­ ding for the renovations. The Senate also approved Shelly Kaehr and Kevin Smith to serve as junior justices in the student judiciary. "I served as a sophomore justice this past semester and I feel my ex­ perience has qualified me to continue," Kaehr said. "1 believe the court needs to set cer­ tain guidelines for penalties on cam­ pus. I think stiffer sentencing should be held in most cases because students don't take Student Court seriously enough," Smith said.

We have to weigh the evidence but I think Student Court has the right to suspend a student." "The court in general has looked on suspension as a last resort.

AMERICAN V CANCER * SOCIETY® (CPS)—Some private companies and colleges have come up with a new kind of student loan that, they hope, will help keep middle class students in college. Last week, a group of colleges and private Financial firms—calling itself the Consortium of Universities of the Washington, D.C. Area—introduced a new loan called "ConSern." Students nationwide can borrow up to $15,000 a year under the program, which carries a higher interest rate—currently 9.5 percent—than the federal Guaranteed Student Loan (GSL) it is meant to supplement. Many students from families earn­ ing more than $30,000 a year can no longer get GSLs under new regula­ tions that went into effect this year. The new programs, she said, "are in response to the changes and limita­ tions in the federal laws." Massachusetts, Texas and several other states have developed their own programs designed to help people being eliminated from federal aid programs. The U.S. Dept. of Education also is pushing similar programs—called the Income Contingent Loans and Parent Loans—which, unlike GSLs, carry a high interest rate, require a credit­ worthy co-signer on a loan and have the student begin repaying the loan 30 to 60 days after getting the money. The ConSern loans are aimed at "the middle 70 percent" of students who now have trouble getting GSLs, according to Janice Moyer of the consortium. "The 15 percent at the top don't need financial aid," Moyer said. "The lower 15 percent have access to other programs. This is for the middle group that has difficulty. This is the alternative for the family that would otherwise have to take out a second mortgage (to pay for college)." But the ConSern loan is different, Moyer said, because it is national and less cumbersome than the Dept. of Education programs. Any school or group of schools paying an annual fee to the consor­ tium can make its students eligible for a ConSern loan. "ConSern is the only program at this scale," Moyers said. "It's a unique approach as far as we know." Some college financial aid direc­ tors, however, doubt it will fly. "Our parents are not demanding anything like this at this point," Cary Bennett, aid director at Mills College in California said. Bennett suggests ConSern loans might work best for "those who want to attend schools so prestigious that students will go there at any cost." ConSern is not the only program aimed at making up for strict new federal aid regulations and cutbacks that first made it harder to get grants, and now have made it harder to get federal loans. Ohio Wesleyan aid Director Linda "Several supplemental programs have been developed to fill the gaps Widmer readily concedes that middle that the federal programs can't class families are "really in a bind, meet," Jean Frohlicher of the that the college education help they National Council of Higher Educa­ counted on in the past might not be tion Loan Programs in Washington, there."

Wisconsin would have to examine the ConSern program, Van Ess said, but historically his school has been pleased with any program that helps students. Similarly, Steve Van Ess of the University of Wisconsin at Madison's aid office said he hadn't heard much about ConSern, but added that the need for such a program is evident. "It has been harder in the last few years for the middle class to muddle through," Van Ess said. Even so, Frohlicher said she thinks ConSern and the other private programs will remain much more ex­ pensive than federal loans, and that GSLs "will remain the backbone of • the student financial program for theforeseeable future."

Nobody knows better than we do how much help and understanding is needed. That's why our servrice and rehabilitation programs emphasize the whole family, not just the cancer patient. We run local programs with volunteers who are recovered cancer patients, or whose lives have been touched by family members or friends with cancer. That s what makes us one of the largest, best motivated and most caring of any health organization in the country. Among our regular services we provide information and guidance to patients and families, transport patients to and from treatment, supply home care items and assist patients in their return to everyday life. Life is what concerns us. The life of cancer patients. The lives of their families. So you can see we are even more than the research organization we are so well known to be.

I've got mixed feelings. I'm happy for him ^ause he's doing what he wants to do. On the other hand, I'm losing one of fy favorite people. His name is Sean. We met two years ago during our freshman year. Our mutual interests in the outdoors and other things led us into many adventures and sealed our friendnip. He wants to go to school in Denver, Colorado. 1 know we will stay in touch. We live close enough to get together once in a «hile. Those times I will remember well. There are a lot of fond memories now. The intense discussions about religion, outdoors, sororities, family, dreams, tirlfriends, life. Picking his Fender, listening to R.E.M. and talking of camp­ ing trips to come. Or playing Yippee until we have to hold each other up. Sometimes it blows my mind how two people can get attached. Good iriends are awesomely important. Even the "tough guys" who can handle anything or the "cool chicks" have got to confide in somebody, share with tan and be accepted as they are. Maybe your friend will even save your neck. A few weeks ago, Sean, Rich (my roommate) and I went to Seven Devils, tain and I were climbing while Rich took pictures. I was forty feet up on a dek face trying to find route to the top. Sean had climbed it before so he took •ii easy route to a ledge above me. I had traversed the face and was starting up taen I realized I was stuck. I could find no hand holds. 1 was scared. Bad. Forty feet is a long way to fall. Sean perceived my fear and began talking me up. He didn't get excited, he mply encouraged me and told me where the holds were. After a few minutes of cold sweat, deep breathing, shaking legs and wondermg what it felt like to smash into the ground, I climbed it. I thanked God that Sean had been put on this earth. Most people probably don't experience help from their friends in this manr but that's irrelevant. A tried and true friend is going to be there whether on a rock, during family sis, helping with homework. You name it. I reckon what I'm trying to do here is get everyone to be thankful for and predate best friends. One of mine is leaving and since I won't be able to eny his presence, I want everyone to enjoy the presence of their best friends. Charlie Daniels sums up my feelings best in his song, "Reflections." I've hanged the lyrics just a bit: Sean, my buddy, above all the rest I'll miss you the most And I love you the best And I thank God I am blessed Just to know you.

Every year, the ^bers and pledges of this National °norary Dramatic Society get a 3nce to showcase their talents in a *% student-produced play. Foreigner, as this year's choice, was a fast-paced and highly entertaining comedy with lovable characters and a light-hearted but touching poignancy. Student director Randell Whitfield received academic credit for his work, and Alpha Psi Omega advisor Susan Cole contributed her expertise when needed. The final product was a wonderful pay-off for six weeks of hard work. The performance was one of those rare occasions when the communciation between the actors and the audience was strong, and everyone was caught up in the general fun of the thing. The story was a good one. It was a little unrealistic, but that was part of its charm. Often nonsensical and always funny, the plot was a joy to follow. Charlie Baker was a shy and social­ ly backwards Englishman who came with his friend, "Froggy" LeSeur, to spend a weekend at Betty Meek s Fishing Lodge Resort in rural Georgia.

Campbell has successful administration By AMEE SMITH Appalachian Staff Writer Accountable—that's the one word that SGA president Todd Campbell used to describe his two-year administration. "We said we would do things, and we did; we came through," Campbell added. "We had good administration, obviously filled with non-stop ac­ complishments." The key ingredient to the success of Campbell's administration was the desire of both himself and his cabinet to learn. "We planned everything out and learned the ropes. We were well trained and adapted to the challenges that confronted us/j^Tampbell said. He also said that in addition to the cabinet being well informed and trained, the greatest strength of the officers overall was they worked together as a team toward ultimate goals. "Earlier cabinets didn't really get along, but this cabinet worked well together, everyone knowing what everyone was doing," Campbell said. Among his greatest achievements in SGA, Campbell said that he feels the improved security, community rela­ tions, improved voter rates and the inclusion in the Boone Town Council are paramount. "Personally," Todd added, "I'm most proud of the fact that my grades are decent and I've kept my sanity." Although Campbell's two-year administration produced many suc­ cessful programs, Todd admitted that improvement was needed in the area of off-campus communications. "Next year the communication with off-campus students will be bet­ ter because the incoming administra­ tion (Wolfe-Beeker) has already add­ ed an off-campus affairs office," Campbell said. "If I had the chance to serve my past two years as SGA president over again, I think I would try to get things implemented faster. I would also have given important issues a bigger fight," Campbell said. "Sometimes we (the administration) got over­ whelmed. We shouldn't have taken on so many big jobs all at once. Also, rassment of having to be social with Betty and the lodge's guests, "Froggy" tells everyone that his friend is a foreigner and cannot speak or understand a word of English. This is where the fun begins. Since everyone talks around Charlie as if he is not there, he learns all the "dirt." Soon he gets caught up in the charade and has a great time fooling everyone, meanwhile finding the personality he thought he lacked. By the end of the play, he is everyone's best friend; he has saved the day in a run-in with the Ku Klux Klan; and he even gets the girl. The play moved along at a quick, tight pace, and the line deliverance was always clear and well-timed. The audience sat on the edge of the seat, not wanting to miss a word. As the "foreigner," sophomore theatre major Patrick Hill was in his element.

Women's Studies courses provide the means to examine these viewpoints. eyes of a quick wit. His gestures and body movements were fun to watch, especially in a memorable scene between he and guest Ellard at the breakfast table. Charlie is pretending to copy every move Ellard makes as he eats, and they wind up doing all sorts of strange and side-splitting funny things in a frenzied "dance" with fork and cup.

The play is a very new one and was voted the Best New American Play for 1985 by the Outer Critics. Circle. Karen Duckett, press agent for University Theater, said the play was "hilariously funny." Attitudes about the play are very positive; everyone seemed to enjoy either seeing the performance or participating in it. The leading role of Charlie was played by Pat Hill. His Army buddy, Froggy, was played by Bob Adams. Kirk Andrews played the visiting minister and Ruth Wilson played the role of Catherine. Catherine's brother, Ellard, was played by Todd James. Owen Musser, a Ku Klux Klan member was played by Scott Simmons. A Georgian inn owner was played by Brandon Daughtry.

"Are you sure we can't talk this over, Scotton? I mean death isn't exactly necessary, is it?" "I am afraid so, Kennot. You and your friends must & die." *' Kenneth frantically looks around, trying to formulate a plan. He thinks to himself, "What can I do? Scotton's . going to kill us.. .going to kill Amanda! Unless..." Kenneth realizes the solution to his dilemma may be right in the palm of his hand. Scotton gathers all of the destructive might within his talisman and prepares to direct it towards Kenneth and his companions. "Enough stalling! Prepare to die!" "Wrong! Your threat is ended, Darkson! Here and t('.now!" Summoning all of his strength, Kenneth hurls his •enchanted sword at Scotton. With great skill, and perhaps a little luck, the sword strikes the talisman in the Darkson's hand. Upon impact, the swords splits open the talisman, unleashing solid power. There is an incredible implosion, and Scotton is gone. <* "Whoa. That light show was spectacular. I haven't seen •anything like it in the 20th century." Kenneth walks over to where Scotton last stood and ".finds his sword among the rubble. "Well, it looks like Scotton won't be bothering anyone ever again." "I don't understand, Kennot. What happened? And •where is Scotton?" "Sir Sean, I think he's gone to wherever evil sorcerers go \vhen they die." Kenneth picks up the talisman and walks back over to jhe knights. > "It appears that the talisman was more powerful than , Jseotton thought it was. When my sword struck it, it must have broken Scotton's concentration, unleashing the full hower of the talisman. Scotton was probably consumed by lhat power. My sword must have also neutralized the talisman. I can pick it up now without dying. 1 think I'll keep it until we get back to the kingdom. I'm sure Zarkan will want to examine it." "I imagine he might also want to examine your sword, Kennot. It is indeed enchanted." "Yes, Sir Sean. I believe you're right. But that can wait. I'm gonna go check on the princess." Kenneth walks over to the table Amanda is chained to, and frees her. "She's unconscious, but other than that, she's fine." "Kennot, I want to thank you for your help. We could never have stopped Scotton or saved the princess without you." "No thanks are necessary, Sir Sean. I'm only glad I could help." Sir Richard shoves past Sir Sean and confronts Kenneth, who is now carrying Amanda. "Help? You nearly killed us with your actions! What if we had been killed in the blast with Scotton? What then, hero?" "Look, knight! I didn't exactly have a lot of time to think about it. I only had time to act. And even though you may have handled the situation differently, my plan did work." "You were lucky. However, your luck is about to end, unless you hand over my Amanda." Before Kenneth can reply to Sir Richard's threat, the fortresss begins to crumble. Without Scotton's power to sustain it, the tower falters. "Looks like we are not welcome any longer, people! I'm sorry, Rich, but we're gonna have to postpone this discus­ sion!" Carrying Amanda, Kenneth leads the way as they race down the stairs. Once outside, Kenneth and the knights turn to watch the fortress of Scotton the Darkson collapse into a pile of rotted stone. Turning towards the rising sun, Kenneth remarks, "I hate to be the bearer of bad news, Sir Sean, but we have a very long walk ahead of us." "Not necessarily. Look over there. Is that what I think it is?" "Huh? What are you. ..all right! There are three horses by that old oak tree." "But from where did they come?" "Don't look a gift horse in the mouth, Sir Richard. C'mon, let's go. We might make it back in time for sup­ per." That night in the castle of Danyal, the king is overjoyed at the return of his daughter. "Amanda! My dear Amanda! You have been returned to me!" She rushes to her father's arms, to where she feels safe. "Oh father. I thought I would never see you again." "Hush, child. You are safe now. You need not worry. Thank you my knights, and you also Kennot, for returning my daughter to me." "Sire, that is not all we have brought back." "What else, Sir Sean?" "Well, most importantly, the threat of Scotton is no more. Here is his talisman of power to prove it." Kenneth steps forward. "I'm afraid we also have some bad news, your Majesty." PUTAN ENDTOYOUR •DEADLY HABIT. I "What bad news, Kennot?" ,, "We didn't find a cure for the queen. I'm sorry. "No.. .no cure?" . As King Danyal contemplates life without his queen, Zarkan enters the room and sees the sword hanging y Kenneth's side. "Hold, what is this? Is it possible? "What are you talking about?" "My liege, the sword at Kennot's side. It is the sword ot Tantrus. The sword of legends." , "My sword? The sword of Tantrus? I don t understand." "I will explain to you, Kennot, if 1 may but examine your sword." "Sure, be my guest." Zarkan takes the sword and studies it closely. "It is the sword of legends! The queen is saved!" "Explain, Zarkan." "Very well, my Lord. This sword that Kennot has found was created by a powerful wizard, Tantrus, many eons ago. He created it for his king and placed several enchant­ ments on the blade. The most prominent being the ability to break all spells. The holder must exert his will power and touch the spell stricken object. After this is done, the spell is no more." "You mean this sword can awaken the queen?" "Aye, Kennot. She lies in the next room." King Danyal and Kenneth, with his sword in hand, enter the room where the queen rests peacefully. Focusing his will, Kenneth touches Angelica wijh the tip of the sword. Within moments, her eyes open. "It worked, Kennot! You have saved my queen! Angelica, how do you feel?" "I feel as though I have been asleep for a very long time, Danyal." "That you have, my love. Come, let me explain all that has transpired." The king, with his awakened queen, leave for their chambers. The king, in parting, remarks, "Kennot, I am forever indebted to you. You have saved my wife, my daughter, and my kingdom." Kenneth returns to the throne room smiling. "It worked, everybody. The queen's awake." Everyone cheers. Kenneth approaches Zarkan and Sir Sean, who are studying the talisman. "Excuse me, Zarkan, but you said there were several en­ chantments on the sword. What are the others?" "Tell me, Kennot. Did anything strange happen while you were gone? Anything you could not explain?" "Now that you mention it, yes. When we started to leave the ruins of Scotton's fortresss, we found three horses. We certainly couldn't explain that stroke of luck." "That, my friend, is the other enchantment. It was exactly as you said, a stroke of luck. Ev which the sword is used, will increase" »«Ami7ino!

"Personally, I've learned that you must be involved to make your college career profitable. My involvement has taken me over 15,000 miles to places like Louisiana, Washington and Atlanta, enabling me to meet the president of the United States, two former governors and James, a freshman also seen earlier in Antigone, has definite comic talent.

DIVERSIONS There's the sign post up ahead You are now entering The Anti-Obscenity Zone By JACK GROCE-II Diversions Editor Picture if you will a busy afternoon at your local video - store. People are milling about in search of an evening's entertainment, a movie to watch in the privacy of their own home, and employees of the store are busily waiting on their customers. Suddenly, a couple of police cars pull up outside, blue lights flash wildly, and several officers get out and enter the store. They rush in, head straight for the counter, and inform the employees that they have a search warrant to search the premises for pornographic or inde­ cent films the store might be renting to the public. The workers are dumbfounded as the officers file behind the counter in search of specific film titles they have on a list—a list of films considered to be in violation of North Carolina's strict Anti-Obscenity law. They find -plenty of the films from their list up on the shelf, Taxi Driver, An Officer and a Gentleman, Porky's, Crimes of Passion, The Blue Lagoon, Animal House, Dressed to Kill, Blue Velvet, and many other mainstream R-rated films. The police officers confiscate the films as evidence and arrest the clerks for dissemination of obscene material. Sound farfetched? A scenario out of Twilight Zone, perhaps? But Rod Serling is not standing just around the .corner to clue us in on this curious scene from a distant future when censorship of the arts is widespread. No, this is 1987 and this scene could be right out of reality. Scary, isn't it? Indeed the thought of this little scene occurring for real has been enough for video store owners everywhere in North Carolina to think a bit harder about the movies they are renting to the public. They now realize that certain ones could get them or their employees arrested under our state's Anti-Obscenity law. Passed a couple of years ago without any difficulty, the law deems almost every kind of sexual activity except kissing, including nudity, breast or genitalia fondling, masturbation, oral sex, anal sex, sadomasochism, bondage, persons clad in undergarments or bizarre costumes as well as regular, all-American missionary-position intercourse, as obscene and illegal to display or describe in film (or literature, television, or any other kind of media you can imagine). So, far, the only local stores to pull films from their shelves have been Holton's and Tri-County Video. No word yet as to whether Belk, the high school, or county libraries have pulled any books from their shelves. Stay tuned, though... The Anti-Obscenity law might have sounded like a good idea to our state legislators to rid North Carolina of sleazy adult book stores and X-rated movie theaters. The prob­ lem is that the law is so shamefully vague and poorly word- The point I am making here is that the Anti-Obscenity law is so broad that it could cover a vast spectrum of medias. ed that it could include many mainstream R-rated films or literature ranging from D.H. Lawrence to Harold Robbins as obscene. As described by Section B, Item 2 or Article 14-190.1 of the N.C. General Statutes, under the heading "Obscene Literature and Exhibition," "any material is obscene if... the average person applying contemporary community standards relating to the depiction or description of sexual matters would find that the material taken as a whole appeals to the prurient interest in sex." Here in Boone, "contemporary community standards" are outlined in Boone's Public Display Ordinance (a bastard child of the anti-obscenity law), which has been in effect since July 1985 and defines "prurient" as "a lustful, lascivious, erotic, shameful, or morbid interest in sexual conduct, sex­ ually explicit nudity, sadomashochistic sexual abuse, or lewd exhibition of the genitals." Gee, it all sounds to me like the average issue of any fashion magazine would be in violation, since those magazines are as full of sexually explicit advertising, photos, and articles as any copy of Playboy magazine is full of sexually explicit photos ot nude women. The point I am making here is that the Anti-Obscenity law is so broad that it could cover a mast spectrum of medias. Besides sexually explicit R-rated movies, books, and magazines, the law might include television—videos As the law is now, we are all pornographers. We are all a state full of law breaking, sexual deviants... shown on MTV, day and nighttime soap operas, or movies and shows on pay-cable channels like HBO, Cinemax, and Showtime. Quite simply, everyone in this state breaks the Anti-Obscenity law daily by renting or going to see a movie, reading a book, opening a magazine, or turning on the television. It our state and local legislators wanted to attack the problem of pornographic material shown and/or read, then that is who they should have pinpointed in this now obviously badly written law—the pornographers. As the law is now, we are all pornographers. We are all a state full of law breaking, sexual deviants because we might rent a copy of An Officer and a Gentleman, watch Dynasty, read Lady Chatterly's Lover, thumb through a copy of Vogue, or, heaven forbid, go to an art gallery where nude paint­ ings or sculptures are shown. What about the actors, directors, writers, photographers, and artists whose work North Carolina's Anti-Obscenity law finds pornographic? A held responsible? Can we arrest Joan Colli^V^ 1 * Dynasty or Hugh Hefner, publisher of Playb^^ • ning an article on "10 Techniques to H ?''' Lovemaking?" Of course not, but the way Eriliasjt 1 worded you would think we could.

The Anti-(wJ law acts as a morality babysitter, instilling the fear people that what they watch or read could label them dcS nographers, so we had all better watch out. Even mat frightening is that the Anti-Obscenity law opens the d«x for every fundamentalist, moralistic crackpot person « group to try and have censored anything they think i obscene, or point their crooked little finger at anyone thei feel is a pornographer. This law is, in fact, the worst kind of censorship—tk kind that spreads fear and suppression, and gives th ignorant the chance to force their views on everyone els It is a law that violates everyone's first amendment right; freedom of speech; now that's obscene. STREET DANCE: Saturday, May 2, King Street traffic will be detoured so that local bands: Not the Numbers, Discord and Dionysian Tapestry can per­ form at Boone's second Street Dance. All three bands play original music from a variety of in­ fluences. Beginning at 7:30 p.m., Dionysian Tapestry will play their first gig with their new line up. Next will be Discord, who always draw a large crowd when they play in Boone. Not the Numbers will be finishing off the night with a set full of rockin' tunes. The event is sponsored by The Downtown Merchants Association and the Jones House. All students are invited (pictured at sides are members of Discord, Andy Verville and Benjamin Marcellin, and below, the band Not the Numbers). Appalachian Photo by Colby Coldwoll ond Rodney Hawkins Rating records isn't the answer By COLBY D. CALDWELL Special to The Appalachian You know who the Parent's Music Resource Center(PMRC) is, don't you? They are the group of senator's wives who think that rock lyrics are just too wild for our nation's young minds, and they want to start a system of rating records because of it. But you know what? Who cares abcut the PMRC? I sure as hell don't. Do you? If so, then you are doing exactly whait they want: giving them atten­ tion. They need to be ignored. How Tipper Gore and the rest of the PMS... I mean PMRC, get off on trying to decide what we should and shouldn't hear is beyond me. It seems to me that it's their own self-doubts that must cause them to be saviors of the world. Maybe if they would pay more attention to their own family's problems and what their kids listen to instead of worrying about everyone elses' problems and kids then they would be doing a lot more for the betterment of society. Why start worrying now, anyway? I mean, rock and roll lyrics have always been somewhat on the provocative side; they've only gotten more explicit and "worse" as society itself has. Kids certainly aren't going to hear anything worse in rock songs than they do in their own schools or read about in magazines or see on MTV—as well as the rest of televi­ sion. Not many kids I know (I work at a record store in town) come into the store and run to the record bins in search of albums about drugs, sex, or satanic related material. Yet, 1 can see rock music—from Journey to Devo to them running to the record bins to Pink Floyd to The Clash—and I think grab the records with the worse warn­ I turned out pretty well; in fact, I ings stamped on them just to find out think I'm better for it.

Many records need ratinj By P.M. MONTALDI Special t o The Appalachian With all due respect, when I saw the protestors stalking Rivers Street last week, each one with a divestment sign, I felt a sudden urge to veer my car onto the sidewalk, peg the throttle and see how many points I could col­ lect. There are at least two constants in this world: people who will protest the most inane issues that come along and my general contempt for those peo­ ple. As if South Africa, Forsyth Country and even the use of laboratory animals are not enough, now there's another bandwagon com­ ing around. This one guarantees fun for all ages, creeds and levels of stupidity—all in the name of censor­ ship. It seems that some concerned parents have decided that a lot of the music that their kids are listening to is unfit for young minds. Right off the bat, I'll say that, in a lot of cases, they are right. If you scan today's musical offerings, you will find a lot of trash mingled in with the good. There's nothing wrong with that. Even the trash has some redeeming value, maybe for no other reason than that it makes good use of the First Amend­ ment. But freely offering this socalled trash to children brings up issues far more volatile than constitu­ tional rights. . We are faced with the task of educating and molding our youth, the leaders of tomorrow, if you will. It is a crime to want to teach your kids the basics of intelligent thought before they are subjected to the hard-driving reality of Melallica, Pink Floyd, or U2? Far be it. The logic behind this comes from a steady stream of previous examples—the driving age the drinking age, the voting age, the draft age and so on. A period of in­ tellectual growth is necessary before the application of more involved philosophies. What these parents want is for record companies to rate albums in a similar manner as movies are rated. Presumably, record stores would voluntarily agree to restrict sales to underage kids. All of a sudden the ar­ tists, the kids and the assorted pro­ testors start wetting their pants and screaming censorship. Sorry to disap­ point you, but the rating of albums is not censorship. Instead, it performs a legitimate social function. Don't get me wrong; the day they put out a war­ rant for Metallica because of some kid s suicide will be the day that I join the protestors. But for now, the ac­ tual censorship of rock music (such as Styx s Majority for Musical Morality) is a complete fantasy blown out of proportion by a bunch of alarmists. As you might have guessed, heavy metal is my particular love. I also en­ joy the Electric Light Orchestra, U2 (in small doses), George Winston, jazz and bluegrass. But heavy metal as a genre, is still tops. If true censor­ ship ever becomes a reality, you can be sure that heavy metal will be the first to get the axe; so real censors, is something I could never tolerate However, the issue at hand is ; one of the worth of heavy metal, stead, it involves the music seffe on young kids. To deny that it d< have a powerful effect would be deny everything that the music stai for. I don't feel hypocritical in « way by saying that I would my young kid listening to AC L>C Judas Priest.

He is a former sports editor of The Appalachian. The National Football League draft has to be the biggest emotional rollercoaster ride in sports. Thousands of college players anticipate that phone call informing them of their selection by an NFL team, but only 336 actually get the ring. Each player dreams that his will be the name that shocks the experts in the early rounds. This year the name was Donald Evans of Winston-Salem State—a defensive lineman taken by the L.A. Rams in the second round. After having a great season with a 9-2-1 record and a Southern Conference championship, Appalachian State had some players sitting by the phones on Tuesday. Two-time I-A A all-American tailback John Settle, the SC's all-time leading rusher with over 4,000 yards, seemed a lock. Settle was expected to be the first I-AA back taken in the draft and, accord­ ing to ASU running-back coach Donnie Kirpatrick, "all of our sources in­ dicated he would be gone by the fifth round." Settle's agent, Jim Abernathy, was confident. After all, just weeks before he bought Settle a new car. Three I-AA running backs were selected—Warren Marshall of James Madison (6th round, Denver); Micheal demons of William and Mary (8th round, Kansas City); Idaho State's Merrill Hoge (10th round, Pittsburg). Set­ tle's name was never called. Settle obviously hurt himself at the recent combine camps in Indianapolis when he participated despite having the flu. He virtually never fumbles, has great field vision and bounces off tacklers more often than not, but his 40-yard dash time of 4.65 on that day must have turned the scouts off. He is now being highly sought as a free agent by Atlanta, Dallas, Cleveland, Miami and Pittsburgh. Jimmy Armstrong, a 5-8, 170-pound defensive back for ASU, was another player who got a queasy feeling in his stomach everytime the phone rang. Despite his lack of size, Armstrong earned the reputation as a malicious hitter and big play man. He helped his cause at the combine camp running the second fastest time of the 300 athletes there with a clocking in the 40 of 4.37 seconds. Armstrong was ranked 16th among defensive backs in the draft according to the combine camp. In the first 10 rounds, 41 defensive backs were selected, none by the name of Armstrong. Darryl Russell, a 6-0, 190-pound defensive back, was told by scouts to stay hear the phone. Russell has sprinters' speed (4.3 in the 40), a 36-inch vertical leap, and good size. The scouts also like the fact that he blocked three punts as a senior Russell's phone rang plenty of times, but never to inform him of his draft selection. A Dallas Cowboys' scout came to Russell's room around midnight and stayed until nearly 2 a.m. The scout had already talked to Armstrong and ex­ pressed interest in giving both players free agent tryouts. The Cowboys' scout drove both players to Hickory Airport Wednesday morning where they boarded a plane for Dallas. Russell has also been contacted by the Denver Broncos and Miami Dolphins. • The Cowboys' scout is also reportedly talking to offensive tackle Mike Callaway (6-6, 270) about a tryout. This means at least four App players, and maybe two others (Russell Payne and Troy Douglas), will get a shot at making a pro team. But draft day was still a disappointment for App fans. Wednesday was bright and sunny at ASU as many student bathed in the sun, quite a recovery from the day before when a dark cloud loomed over the town of Boone. The National Football League's an­ nual player draft was held Tuesday, and players from across the country anxiously awaited "their call" from a pro team. ASU football players were no dif­ ferent from the others, and they sat by their phones and waited. However, no calls came for any of the Mountaineer players. As many as four App players were rumored to have a chance of being "He was a little bit sick when he was at the combine camp (where NFL scouts compare and evaluate college talent), and that may have hurt him. "But lately several scouts have come to Boone to work him out, and he's run some good times for them." Settle is a good bet for a free agent tryout, and Cleveland, Miami, and Atlanta have all been rumored as teams that are interested. Defensive back Jimmy Armstrong was also rumored to have a shot at go­ ing before the tenth round, but that never materialized. 1 The 170-pound, 5'8" speedster (4.32-40 yard dash) was an overachiever at ASU and would be in the pros; however, assistant head coach David Bibee thinks he still may make it. "tftwr "We're really shocked and disappointed," Kirkpatrick said. "John is an awfully good running back, and all of our sources said that he would be taken in the top four or five rounds. —ASU running back coach Donnie Kirkpatrick chosen in the draft. Running-back John Settle was expected to go by the fifth round, according to ASU run­ ning back coach Donnie Kirkpatrick. "We're really shocked and disap­ pointed," Kirkpatrick said. "John is an awfully good running back, and all of our sources said that he would be taken in the top four or five rounds. Darryl Russell Jimmy Armstrong John Settle "Jimmy is a great success story," Bibee said. "He walked on here, earn­ ed a scholarship, made all conference and became a team captain.

CUMBO Special lo The Appalachian There is a fighting spirit in the air and the competition is tough. But the tradition that is rugby prevails and any aggression felt on the field is left there. Rugby is a tradition. It is violent aggression played in a fair way. The comradeship of the sport always shines through. Each player is out to win, but they look out for each other. All the traditions carry through for each game. So no matter what happens, players know it is all in the sport of the game. After each match at Appalachian State, the tradition continues after the game. The home team has a party for the opposing team, providing both food and beverage and following through with a round of the classic songs. "The original football" of rugby is a disorganized combination of soccer and football. The ball, which is oval, is kicked or rushed forward. Any passes that are made can only be lateral or backward. So, the art of rugby is the tackle. Players must attempt to wrap their arms around the person's waist as well as turn them around. A score or "try" is the equivalent Appalachian LACKEY FIELD: Appalachian State's baseball field was dedicated Wednesday afternoon.

In the world of field events, many excellent performances go without the recognition that the track participants receive. Last weekend, ASU's Steve Jeck placed first in the shot put, the hammer throw and came in second in the discus at the Southern Conference championships in Boone, leading the Apps to their fourth consecutive title. The question would be: which sport to coach? During his high school days in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., Jeck wrestl­ ed, participated in track and played football. His decision to stick with track proved to be wise. Jeck was the Florida high school state champion in both the shot put and the discus in 1982. From there, he proceeded to ASU. For his efforts, Jeck has been nam­ ed the Appalachian's Athlete of the Week. "My best year was my freshman year," Jeck said. "I've never thrown the shot further than that first year. I had been recruited by Stanford and West Point, but I wanted to be a teacher and ASU has a real good education program. The area is great, I love the changing of the seasons. I knew when I came up here that I hadn't made a mistake. I think I might even stay here." Jeck, a senior majoring in physical education with a minor in English, would like to be a teacher. He said that the greatest thing to him would be influencing children. "I just hope I can be a great teacher," Jeck said. "That's really important to me." He will have the chance to prove his teaching abilities this fall when he does student teaching in Zionville. Jeck says he Appalachian Photo by Erin K.

All rugby matches consist of two games. The "A" game is for all the veteran players on the team. The "B" game is for any rookie players and others who wish to play. "We have 25 on the team," said ASU's rugby club Vice-President Sean Moore. "Six of our members will be graduating this year," Moore said. "That's four years of rugby talent that we'll be losing for each door conference championships—a feat that no other SC school has ac­ complished. Kerry Fagan, Bobby player." This talent includes Chris Page who has six years of playing experience. Andy Martorelli, who plays the second row, leaves with five years of experience. Also on the second row is Lars Peterson, departing after four years, as does scram half Jerry Meismer. With three years of experience each are Bill Styres at fullback and James Wilkes at flyhalf. The rugby club plays two seasons each year, including a fall and spring schedule. They play mostly in-state \ Steve Jeck Kirkland, and Jeck became known as the "Hammer Brothers." "If there's anything I've ever done in track, that is the one thing I'll always remember." His fondest memory in Boone is when he was a "Hammer Brother." In 1985, the Mountaineers took the first, second and third spots in the in­ Draft schools, military teams, and tour­ naments. These include Duke, Wake Forest, East Carolina, Fort Bragg, UNC, and UNC-Greensboro. "Rugby is a rough sport," Moore said. "You're going to get hit. If you get hit hard you can't get mad, you shrug it off and say, 'good shot.' You don't hold a grudge." Rugby, a game full of tradition that is out to promote the fellowship of its participants. It is a game that brings together the .important elements of fun, physical fitness, and an assertion in the belief of good sportsmanship.

Offensive coor­ dinator Art Wilkins, formerly an assistant at Penn State, has coached several NFL players. Wilkens has said that Callaway is potentially the best offensive lineman he's coached. year 'age n America's Dinner Table ..

He likes being on his own. "I like to be motivated, and with track you don'! have much support," Jeck said. "I started to really get into being on my own. It was just you, the rain and the track, and that's all. You either make it or break it. There are no coaches out there, it's just you and your abili­ ty." Jeck is real proud of his ac­ complishments, but is even moreproud of his teammates. "We all worked together to win the con­ ference for a fourth time in a row. he said. "We felt like wc were Ih< underdog with something to prove And we did. We've won four years in a row now, and we know that says something." - • \ but now I'm getting set for life," J$ek added.

Poor planning seems to be the root of the problem. Rapid, uncheck­ ed growth has caught up with ASU's highly reputable college of business. This news is naturally creating an uproar among business students and faculty. For the students, the prestige of the degree they are pursu­ ing is in jeopardy. Faculty are upset about the implied demand for research and doctorate degrees, among other unconfirmed concerns. In fact, the entire university could be affected. The business school's prestigious reputation has prompted much of the media attention ASU has received lately. This prestige is obviously under question. In its efforts for continuous improvement, the business school has expanded rapidly. In haste, faculty were hired directly from the business field, some of them lacking doctoral credentials ;they had practical experience in the field instead of formal academic instruction implicit in a prestigous degree. Many students appreciated this; they valued instruction from experienced businesspersons. However, these credentials— valuable as they may be— do not meet the accreditation criteria. Lack of research is a problem as well. Possibly because of demand­ ing teaching loads, less than half of the business faculty has done any recent research. Under the criteria, faculty are asked to publish more while trying to maintain quality instruction in their classes. Unfor­ tunately, some teachers are overloaded in the latter area; maintaining quality instruction is already difficult. Adjustments will be made to get rid of probationary status. However, additional research time may threaten the quality of instruc­ tion. In addition, popular instructors with experience in the business field may not be as common. Ultimately, the business student will suf­ fer the most. No more bank After allowing First Union to be the only check-cashing service on campus, the administration will deny ASU that service when the bank withdraws from the bookstore. Many other universities of ASU's size provide free check cashing through what are called burser offices. ASU does not. The campus branch of First Union was established as a service to theif customers. It also provides non-customers check-cashing service for $1 for any check under $25. Students without transportation who have off-campus or out-oftown banks are denied—by the university—an on-campus service. A check is cashed at the campus branch every 45 seconds. It is evi­ dent that a check-cashing service is necessary. The First Union is pull­ ing out because the branch has lost serveral thousand dollars. Students who choose to bank off-campus or out-of-town should not be penaliz­ ed by the university. The pull-out is the perfect opportunity for the administration to establish a free check-cashing service for the community regardless of their, bank. Students will need, at the very least, a place on campus to cash not only personal checks but also university pay checks. The entire campus has taken advantage of the service First Union offers, not only the bank's customers. The university should continue that service in a way that benefits the whole campus, not just those who patronize one local bank. iWUBafc, 'LACHtAN.THURSDA COMMENTARY DAVID A.

THF1P" The logic of 'neutral propaganda I, like most Americans today, feel strongly that pollution, much like the unsightly, grimy greasy buildup on my refrigerator, is a dirty thing. Nope, I don't like it. Dirty, dirty, dirty. That is why I fall down on my knees every night and thank my lucky stars that I do not have to hear about it, or see it or have the opportunity to do so. After all, films having to do with these things can now be handily labeled as propaganda by the U.S. Government now. Propaganda is neutral. Propagan­ da has a PH of 7. I lift my index Finger loftily and proclaim unto the civilized world that I, as an American, hate pollu­ tion, I really just hate the stuff, but those Canadians are just showing me too darn much of it.

Of course clean air and water is a priority, but let's be reasonable, it is across our border, all that acid rain. Isn't it? Surely the wisdom of Solomon, or somebody real­ ly smart, slammed into the heads of the Supreme Court Justices (Rehnquist, White, Powell, O'Connor, the Four Horsemen of the Acropolis) when they came up with the completely creative and innovative, almost otherworldly idea that propagan­ da can be neutral.

Marijuana as a possible national hobby? By KEVIN KIRK Appalachian Columnist In today's society, some people come home and have a couple of "bong hits" to relax and unwind. Many people do it and a large portion of them are adults, although we are led to believe that it only occurs with youngsters. But today's society is twisted enough to prohibit this inno­ cent act, and it is an innocent act, by passing ridiculous laws that carry outrageous sentences, which the police enforce. This is the moral majority's way of turning its back on its own injustices, while still remain­ ing upright, uptight citizens. And since the opposing forces are the minority in this battle of rights, these injustices continue to happen to mari­ juana smokers. When I first heard of these injustices, I was very ignorant on the subject. 1 thought it was just a few people who were uptight about being busted. But when I was faced with the menacing facts, 1 was shocked. I've always thought it silly to prohibit marijuana when alcohol is very legal, but I wasn't aware of the harsh punishment that has been allowed by our ever-sick society. Every year over 400,000 people are arrested for marijuana related offenses, and if you smoke marijuana it could be only a matter of time until you belong to the ranks of that 400,000. But what happens to offenders after they are arrested? Many believe that they are just slap­ ped on the wrist and given a small watr fine. That, however, is very, very far from the truth. Just recently a com­ munity social worker in Texas was sentenced to 60 days in jail and fined $1500 for possession of 2/10th's of a gram of marijuana. By the way, it was her first offense. In another incident, a Texas man was sentenced to 70 years imprison­ ment for selling less than a quarterounce of marijuana. You may be say­ ing, "That's in Texas, it wouldn't happen here in Boone." Well, you're wrong. About two years ago a local person was arrested for possessing less than a half-ounce of marljuaha. He was charged with 9 felony accounts, 3 accounts of conspiracy, 3 accounts of possession, 3 accounts of possession with the intent to sell, and his bail was set at $42,000. His parents had to mortgage their house to pay it. Unfor­ tunately, I can't remember his sentence and I apologize for my bad memory, but the fact that they charged him with conspiracy and set his bail so high shows how our society views marijuana users as hardened, dangerous criminals. And I thought the days of the dreaded Narcotics Council on Drug Enforcement inquisition were over. Silly me. Why has it gotten so out of hand? Paranoid Waterheads! Call them ignorant citizens if you want, but I prefer Waterheads. They are Mr. and Mrs. Model Citizen (Waterhead) who still believe those age-old tales that when people smoke marijuana they go nuts. And to keep these "pot fiends" from breaking into their home in the wee hours of the morning to cut off their heads for cult rituals, they need to support their waterheadpoliticians to pass these stiff laws. Sad, I know, but true. Due to government-issued paranoia, our society has gotten the idea that mari­ juana is a sinister menace that must be stamped out to save our society from certain doom. I feel that is absurd propaganda; another government tool to wield its power, but that is a different subject altogether, and one I'll save for later. But one can see that the problem lies with the citizens (that's you and me, folks). To support, or at least not attack, marijuana use would be giving up their (our) straight, upright citizei standing. I mean, what would th neighbors say? Even if marijuan were legalized, most people voul still be against it out of fearofbein tarred and feathered. So I guess it all comes down to or of the many hearts of th article—what can we do about i Well, fighting is always good. Fight See MARIJUANA Page 1 THE M4N wrm A MICROCHIP «N HIS SIMIW Why do they walk funny? How stereotypes are produced By DAVID R. FARTHING Appalachian Columnist I have a friend we'll call Pete. Pete walks like no one else I know, male or female. His walk has a certain grace, a lilt, a kangaroo-like quality that is uniquely his. In fact, Pete doesn't walk; he bounces. Unfortunately, Pete has decided to take walking lessons from his peers. He constantly asks me, "Am I walking funny now?" One too many persons have casually, but cruelly asked him, "Do you realize you walk just like a girl?" Pete does not walk like a girl. He does not walk "like a man," either; he only walks like himself. Why does everyone equate femininity with any slight deviation from the masculine stance? Is masculinity rigidity and feminini­ ty freedom? For the mindless majority, it is. Fathers ridicule their sons for any interest in cooking, sewing, or other creative, intuitive behaviors. And if it's not your parents'and the media constantly berating any change from the norm, at pre-adolescence your beloved peers get into the act. Because of the women's movement, young females are taught and even encouraged to choose their own behavior, traditional or not, but young males are still forced to accept rigid stereotypes of behavior in exchange for the love and acceptance of the people in their environment. Why do men walk funny? Why are we arbitrarily made to walk ungracefully and uncomfortably? The reason goes back to the days of the Roman war-machine in the preChristian world. In order to conquer the primarily matrifocal, free tribes of barbarians, the Romans trained their young men through bizarre rituals of punishment and physical, com­ petitive games (the roots of modern Monday Night'Foot­ ball) to behave, think, and walk as only a small part of the Big Machine. Unfortunately, this method was highly sd cessful and has dominated the Western world ever unci The need for a militaristic, machine society is ovtj Hitler proved that in 1945.

Approximately 50 ASU students, faculty and staff marched last Friday in protest of the administration's investment ties with companies that do business in South Africa. The march was the climax event in a week of lectures, picketing and fasting by members of Students, Faculty and Staff for ASU Divest­ ment. The group began marching at about 12:15 p.m. at the Student Union. They circled Sanford Mall in front of the library, cafeteria and I.G. Greer Hall, then moved down the steps between I.G. Greer Hall and East Hall, crossed the street and circled around to the front of the Administration Building. Protestors carried white crosses and shouted, "Hey Hey! Ho Ho! South African stocks have got to go!" and "The students united can never be defeated!" Other marchers carried signs bear­ ing messages like "Apartheid Kills" and "The Sullivan Principles Don't , Work." The march leaders carried a five-square-foot yellow sign with 'Divest Now" written on it. When he marchers reached the Administraion Building, the sign was hammered nto the ground between two flag 5oles. Some members of the administraion, including Chancellor John Thomas and Vice Chancellor for Development and Public Affairs Bob Snead, were out of town during the march. The marchers continued to chant at the administration and then some of them gave speeches. "We have not fallen asleep after the decision of the ASU Foundation last December to adopt the Sullivan Principles," Associate Professor Bud Gerber said. "We have said that we are not going to just take this and accept it. We are going to push on and continue the pressure. You might say that we have arisen from the ashes of last December." Ma a. Mo»on "I am a part of this because I want to go to a school where people are aware of what's going on in the world and are willing to do something about it," Janine Wiltshire, one of the fasting participants, said. "I don't like the apathy that's hap­ pened in the past. Divestment Week is just the start of things," she added. "There should be a lot more momen­ tum in the fall." "We're not going to stop now. They thought we were going away when they said they were sticking with the Sullivan Principles," professor ot history Jim Winders said. "We have found out how rotten the Sullivan Principles are as applied or misap­ plied in South Africa, and we're going to keep on." "Divestment is only a tactic and a short-term symbol of what we want to happen," professor of philosophy and religion Franz van der Bogert said. "Calling for divestment seems to be our most effective strategy, but we can't lose sight of the ultimate objec­ tive—which is the eliminiation of apartheid in South Africa." One of the speakers at the march was Vernon Rose who is the chairper­ son of the South African and Namibian Student Association in Durham. "1 have a message for the ASU Foundation: As a black South African that has seen suffering very close to me, I must say that every dollar that you invest is a nail in the coffin of the many South Africans who die," Rose said. "You people who fight for divestiture, every dollar that you pull out is in fact a removal of the nails of repression that keeps us down in South Africa. All power to you." After the speeches, students ham­ mered white crosses into the ground. The crosses bore lists of some of the more than 30,000 children who Gerber said are suffering and in detention in South Africa. The names were read aloud as each cross was driven into the ground. Rose also spoke at Our House in the Student Union last Thursday on churches in South Africa.

Appalachian Staff Writer "There's been some inconsistency in the buildings," Joe Campbell, area coordinator for Yosef Hollow, said. Underage drinkers are warned on the first offense and the alcohol is poured out. On the second offense, the alcohol is poured out and the violator is required to meet with the resident director, and on the third offense, the student is referred to the student judiciary. Geis said dealing with the higher drinking age has caused morale among resident life staffs to be low across the state and probably nationwide. "(Residence Hall staffs) hate enforcing the policy. They do it, but they hate it," Campbell said. "By the middle of the year they know what the policy is and they're choosing to violate it. There's just as much drinking going on now than there has been in the past, it's See ALCOHOL Page 2 Rain hinders CROPWalk By WOODY CAIN Appalachian News Editor The 1987 CROPWalk was held Saturday mor­ ning despite limited participation due to rain. The CROPWalk, sponsored locally by the Watauga County Hunger Coalition, raises money to fight local as well as world hunger. The event had originally been scheduled for April 4, but heavy snow that weekend forced postponment. Hunger Coalition Coordinator Cinda McGuinn said she is pleased with the results of this year's CROPWalk."We had real good cooperation even though we had a lot of pro­ blems," she said. "We were real pleased with the enthusiasm and spirit of the people who came out." McGuinn said about 375 people actually walk­ ed the route. "We were planning to just have the Shalom Festival (party after the event for walkers), but everybody kept saying 'we want to walk' so they went," she said. "It was a good, safe walk," McGuinn said. "It was wet, but a lot of people went anyway." McGuinn also said about $10,000 in pledges have been collected. "That's about half last year's total," she said "We are still encouraging those people who had sponsors, but didn't come out because of the weather, to go ahead and col­ lect those pledges." McGuinn added that other arrangements could be made for these people. "They could walk the route another day or they could just explain to their sponsors what happened and try to collect anyway," she said. McGuinn emphasized that cooperation and dedication made the CROPWalk work despite the weather setbacks. "We had good police pro­ tection at the crosswalks and, for the Shalom Festival, Domino's gave enough pizza so that everyone had plenty to eat. The Pepsi-Cola peo­ ple also gave a lot. We're just grateful to everyone." Graduation events slated ASU will award about 1700 undergraduate and 400 graduate degrees at its commencement ceremonies on May 17.

On April 6, for example, 5,000 California college students converged on Sacramento for a march to the statehouse protesting cuts in state financial aid. General Assembly Speaker Willie Brown called the demonstration the ."biggest rally since the Vietnam War." By contrast, only 600 students showed up in Washington, D.C., to . protest federal student aid cuts, when in recent years thousands came to lob­ by. The week before the big march in Sacramento, an anti-war group called No Business As Usual and the Com­ mittee in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador both attracted sparse crowds to pre-arranged rallies. Also, the American Committee on Africa's (ACA) annual "Weeks of Action" from March 21 to April 6, which last spring led to protests on scores of campuses and tense con­ frontations between protestors, police and conservative student groups, un­ folded with smaller scale protests at Penn State, Portland State, the State University of New York at Albany, Wabash (Ind.) College, Texas, North Carolina and Florida Atlantic. The ACA's Josh Nessen said the anti-Apartheid movement has shifted focus from campuses—many of which have sold their shares in firms that do business in South Africa—to "hitting the companies directly." Activists — some of them students—protested outside Johnson & Johnson headquarters, and built "shanties" outside Citibank offices in New York, Chicago and Baltimore during the "Weeks of Action," Nessen said. This year, Nessen added, students are "linking anti-Apartheid work and struggles against domestic racism." Although they were not drawn by any organized efforts, students at Michigan and Columbia have held rallies and sit-ins to draw attention to racial tensions on their campuses. "Between 500 and 600 students protested what some are calling a racially motivated fight" that took place two weeks ago on campus, Columbia spokesperson Henry Fuhrmann said. In addition, 23 people, including Columbia students, were arrested for sitting-in at a police station. The group was protesting the same fight, which activists called an "attack" on eight black students. Some observers suggest students are no less socially aware this year, but that they are just more interested in recent issues like the breakdowns in racial relations and tuition increases. "There are no (anti-Apartheid) shanties here this year," Vern Lamplot of the University of Arizona said. Instead, "students are focusing on pocketbook issues." Students may be less radical these days because they "are not seeing their friends and brothers come back in body bags." Thomas Swan, USSA President in 1983 to protest far less drastic cuts than President Reagan has proposed this year, attracted 400 students in March. The National Student Roundtable got 200 students to attend its anti-cuts rally and lobbying effort the week before. USSA President Thomas Swan said he thinks it may be because USSA itself focuses almost exclusively on aid issues, foresaking the group's broader past involvement in issues ranging from abortion to the Vietnam War. Students may be less radical these days because they "are not seeing their friends and brothers come back in body bags," he said.... National issues still hold an appeal, however. Last week, 60 activists went on trial for protesting a CIA recruiting visit to the University of Massachusetts at Amherst last November. Anti-CIA protests are cropping up elsewhere, sponsored by groups like the Progressive Student Organization at the University of Minnesota. At the Twin Cities campus, business senior John Crabath said, "The PSO gets stronger every year. Last quarter's demonstration was the biggest ever." Overall, though, Crabath sees smaller movements absorbing ac­ tivists in the '80s than he saw in the '60s. . ,. "There are so many special interest groups now; everyone's much more interested in their own problems, he said. ^ Ken Iglehart, news director at Johns Hopkins University, said student activism there is "holding steady" and that a "small group keeps the moment,, anti-Apartheid movem Up" for "Three to four ye?111' H have noticed a sli f80^: ht ilig AfV- incN 0r S°uth . u jJ he added.

"This is something that is high on the list of Leon Sullivan's goals, but it has not worked." Gerber also said recently the Arthur D. Little Company reported that the total number of managerial openings increased in Sullivan's signatory companies, but the share of these openings filled by blacks, coloreds and Asians declined.

Carol O'Loughlin, a consulting nutirtionist, became in­ terested in the dessert, called Wispy, after reading an arti­ cle about it recently. She has been attempting to get the product marketed in the area. "Wispy is a healthy, low-calorie frozen dessert," O'Loughlin said. She added that the product contains 42 calories per four-ounce serving and is 99 percent fat free. She also said Wispy contains one-third the calories of the same size serving of soft-serve ice cream, half as many as frozen yogurt and tastes "just as good." "Unless I tell students otherwise, they will think they are eating soft-serve ice cream," O'Loughlin said. A survey card will be provided with the samples enabling ASU Food Services to determine if students like Wispy. If the results are favorable, the university may carry the dessert on a permanent basis. Appalachian Photo by John Andorton Appalachian Photo by Irtn K. Vernon Rose speaks on divestment at Our House.

"Men are like little boys I tell you!" "Men are boys in oversized bodies." "Men are children." "Men can't handle emotional stress. They're babies!" I've been hearing these and other such comments around campus lately and began to wonder. Men can't handle emotional stress? Hmm. Some men have admitted to me recently that they can't handle it. Grown men. Not boys. Emotional stress. Emotional. Basically a word that centuries has been used to describe women. Really! And maybe it is a psychological fact that men are more self-oriented and iwomen are more relationship-seeking. For the most part. Maybe. Even today. But is there anything wrong with people being themselves? . What's the problem with being masculine or feminine if that's what we are? Men have feminine tendencies and women have masculine tendencies in a lot of cases, but what difference does it make? Some men are capable of dealing with a hell of a lot of stress. They run large corporations. So don't tell me they can't handle it. And stress is emotional, no matter how you look at it. That word "EMOTION," however. Is it not in a man's vocabulary? They say they can handle stress, but not EMOTIONAL stress. Is there a difference? Well, most men are taught from a very young age not to be emotional for fear of being called a "sissy" or other words meaning the same thing. What is so derogatory about that word? EMOTION! It's necessary. Emotions are essential, and it is important that they be expressed in the right situation. Emotion for a man could bring to mind the words "weakness," "flip­ pancy" and "love." But anger, unadulterated hate and happiness are emo­ tions too. Maybe I've had my ears clogged until lately, but women on campus seem to me a bit harsh on their male counterparts. For the most part, I can say that the men I deal with on a daily basis are very capable of expressing emotions on the negative end of the scale and some can deal with the positive side also. Women in some cases can't handle stress either, although they, too, are capable of running large corporations. But women don't hold the only key to the door of emotion. Far from it. It really depends on the person. Such stereotypes can be overcome. We're supposed to be learning how to overcome them in college. Maybe we need to evaluate our own relationships without that key dangling over our heads. So lighten up WOMEN. The MEN are trying just as we should try to handle that ominous word "EMOTION" better. Let's give them a break. After all as hard as it is for me to admit, women aren't perfect, either! Imaginative events show Greek spirit #* ASU Greek Week will be held April 27-May 1 this year.

The high level of energy from these bands turned H'Appy's into a big dance. The mood turned to concert when The Back Doors took the stage as the students stopped dancing and started watching the show.

Appalachian Staff Writer Healthy looking skin can be unhealthy in the long run information presented here was obtained from the American Academy of Dermatology, the Federal Drug Administration, the Skin Cancer Foundation and the American Cancer Society. To understand the medical com­ munity's concern about tanning salons you need to know a little about tanning. A tan occurs from exposure to ultraviolet rays either from the sun's rays or artificial sources. When exposed to the ultraviolet rays, the body is prompted to produce melanin—a chemical that results in skin coloring. This actually is a protective response to the injury/damage caused by the sun's rays; the body produces melanin for the purpose of guarding the cells from further damage. So, when some­ one says that you have a "healthy glow" from a tan you actually have "damaged skin." Exposure to the ifesavers By SUSAN STAMPER Special to The Appalachian A recent article in The Appalachian proclaimed that tanning salons did "not cause cancer" and they were "the safest way to get a tan." The article also quoted someone as saying, "having a tan is healthy and nature's way of taking care of your skin." The Wellness Center will explore these acclaimed benefits and the safety of tanning salons in this article. The ultraviolet rays has been cited as the major cause of skin cancer. Tanning has a cumulative effect; meaning that you may not see the effects now, but as you get older you may not "age gracefully without wrinkles." For many years we have had sun lamps and tanning booths available. Now there is a new wrinkle in the tan­ ning market—the tanning bed. Tan­ ning beds have become popular because of the pressure from the medical community to ban the use of tanning booths that used ultraviolet B light (UVB). Exposure to UVB light has been linked to skin cancer. The new tanning beds use ultraviolet A light, thus their assertions of safety. You are less likely to burn with UVA light than with UVB light, however, UVA light penetrates the skin deeper than UVB and may increase the risk of other health health hazards such as edema (swelling), vascular system damage (resulting in purple blotching of the skin), and skin damage (such as premature aging). It may also increase the chances of skin cancer. Research­ ers have also found that in salons which advertised using UVA light only, the machines also emitted a significant amount of UVB light. Sometimes this may occur because the original lamps may have been replaced with UVB bulbs. UVA light also posed a significant hazard for the eyes. Exposure can result in damage to the lens and retina of the eyes leading to the formation of cataracts. Protective goggles should always be worn, but researchers have discovered that many salon owners do not warn customers of this safety measure. Exposure to UVA light can also result in a photosensitive reaction in some individuals who are on certain medications such as birth control pills, antibiotics, high blood pressure medicine, diuretics (water pills), tran­ quilizers and diabetic medicine. Some perfumes and deodorant soaps also can increase your chance of a reac­ tion. A photosensitive reaction results in a rash, redness and swelling—not a pretty sight!! UVA light can also cause cold sores to appear, especially if you are prone to having them. Of special concern to the experts are people who sunburn easily and do not tan. These are usually people with fair skin, perhaps with red or blond hair. Experts advise that, regardless of the promises of advertisements these people will NEVER tan and expose themselves to degenerative skin changes and an increased risk of skin cancer by using tanning pro­ ducts. A common misconception is that a tan received in a tanning salon from UVA rays can protect you against UVB rays from the sun. Actually, UVA rays give only a temporary increase in skin pigmentation and the tan fades in a few days, leaving no protection against further radiation. Because of the possibility of longterm skin damage, both the FDA and the American Academy of Der­ matology advise the public to avoid tanning for cosmetic purposes, till: whether or not to seek a tan isa sonal decision. If you decide t a t ( cosmetic benefits (that mis^a inj healthy glow) outweighs the us s here are some recommendations. 1. Ask the tanning salon what typ, of light is used. 2.

TUFSDA Y, APRIL 28.1987 SPORTS Four straight Track teams continue dynasty ASU eliminated in semifii By TOM GRAVES Appalachian Staff Writer By MIKE SMITH Appalachian Sports Editor Appalachian State continued its domination of Southern Conference track as both the men's and women's teams won the conference championships in decisive manner. For the men, the contest made four consecutive titles in the outdoor championships. ASU's Bob Pollock was nam­ ed the SC's Coach of the Year, his sixth outdoor award and 12th award overall. Michael Hanks was tabbed as Athlete of the Year. The Apps were never seriously challenged as they tallied 193 team points, just eight shy of their old record set in 1984. VMI finished second with 118 Vi points. "It's a great honor to coach such athletes," Pollock said. "I'm especially thrilled for the seniors to win the championship every year. There's no way we could have anticipated this for them." Hanks, garnering his third consecutive award (two out­ door, one indoor), was the top finisher in the long jump (25-3) and the triple jump (51-3 3/4). Hanks's effort in the long jump established yet another SC record for the junior. Warren Posey collected runner-up and third place in the triple jump and long jump for ASU. Steve Jeck was another key cog in the Apps' drive for their ninth overall title. Jeck's tosses of 51-5'/2 in the shot put and 154-3 in the hammer were good enough for the win. Jeck placed second in the discus. Sammie Cunningham helped add to ASU's domination in the field events by claiming the high jump with a leap of 6-8. Hanks was second at 6-6. ASU's Mike Schell won the pole vault at 15-6, second on the school's all-time list. Walt Foster of the Mountaineers captured the 110 high hurdles in 14.06, followed closely by teammate Tommy Robbins at 14.42. The weekend's cold and wet weather held back many of^ the participants. Pollock felt like the crowd would have seen some records broken in conducive weather. Women's Teom Results ASU ETSU Marshall Furman WCU UT-C Davidson Coach ol the Year— John Weaver (ASU) Athlete of the Year— Meg Warren (ASU) "Weather was a factor for all teams," he said. "But I always believe the quality athletes will rise to any occasion. The weather did hamper the quality of performance." The Apps surprisingly 0id not come up with a victory in any of the relays. Two of the legs of the 4x100 team were slowed by injuries. Darryl Russell and Jimmy Armstrong were nursing pulled muscles. This year's championship for the women marked the first season an SC meet has been held; therefore, all winn­ ing times stand as conference records. ASU's victory was not surprising, although the margin of the win was. The Lady Apps scored 21\Vi points compared to East Ten­ nessee State's runner-up total of 133Vi. Appalachian State traveled to Asheville for the Southern Con­ ference Championship last weekend. ASU was favored to come away with the trophy and the automatic bid to the NCAA tournament, but they were narrowly defeated by Western Carolina and VMI to be eliminated in the tourney's semifinal round. On Friday, ASU beat the Davidson Wildcats in the first game of the dou­ ble elimination tournament. The final score of that game was 8-5. By SC Athlete of the Year and holder of the nation's defeating Davidson, ASU moved into longest javelin throw this year, ASU's Meg Warren easily the winner's bracket to play Western outdistanced the competition in the event with a toss of Carolina on Saturday. Lenny Stratton 174-1 l'/z. Teammate Bobbie Puckeit was second at 96-1. pitched for the first 8 and 2/3 innings Warren competed in six events, with a first, two seconds, against Davidson and Stacey Schneider replaced him to finish the and a third place finish. The Lady Mountaineers captured the top three spots in game. Two home runs were ac­ three different events (high jump, 100 hurdles, and 200 counted for by Brad Riley, his first meters). "I was completely surprised by the number of points we scored " said SC Coach of the Year and ASU coach John Weaver. "I felt we were favored and we were strong going in, but I thought we would be around 190." The Lady Apps had nine individual conference cham­ pions and two double winners. Lamonda Miller was SC champ in the 100 and 200 meters, while Patrina Massey took the high jump and long jump. Miller's 11.69 in the 100 meters sets a new standard for ASU's record books. Weaver felt the weather turned out to be an asset for his ladies, although it hampered the performances. "I was really proud of what we did considering the con­ ditions, Weaver said. "It would have been easy to become discouraged in the weather, but instead the women became more aggressive. It was a truly outstanding team effort." two of the year. Ed Dubiel, Brad Long and Andre Crawford also hit round trippers. In Saturday's first game, ASU did not fare well against Western Carolina. It was close for much of the Crawford dominated the tournament's opposing pit­ chers. His tournament totals looked like season totals for many players.

App netters finish season at SC torn Mike Smith By ANNE RASHEED Appalachian Staff Writer The ASU men's tennis team finish­ ed in sixth place in the Southern Con­ ference Tennis Championships held last weekend. Adding bowl games; explain the purpose It looks as if the NCAA would rather add more bowl games to an already overcrowded list than consider the value of a playoff system to determine a true national champion. The current requirements to host a bowl game look like this: a $1.5 million letter of credit, guaranteed payout of $500,000 to each team and a tentative television contract. As usual with bowl games, it all boils down to money. Two weeks ago, the postseason football committee heard pitches from the prospective bowls to enter the postseason scene as early as next season. All four of the bowls appear to be one or two steps shy of completing the NCAA's requirements. The proposed bowls include the New Cherry (Detroit), Cactus (Tucson), Fellowship (Indianapolis), and Crab (Baltimore). The NCAA football manual states that teams must have a winning record and be deserving of going to a bowl game. Last year, four 6-5 teams made over $500,000 by competing in a bowl game. When is the NCAA going to stop fewarding mediocrity? This is the same postseason committee established to research the possibilities of a college football playoff system. It looks as if the committee looked it over without much regard. A one-game playoff would at least determine a true national champion in­ stead of one voted into the position by sportswriters. By adding four bowls, the NCAA will have teams competing in postseason Competition by virtue of a sissy schedule and average record. ; After all, what was the purpose of dividing Division I football into I-A and I-AA? Why doesn't Appalachian State apply for I-A status, go 6-5 against Lenoir-Rhyne and Gardner-Webb, and head for a big payday at the Crab Bowl? Even SMU, after two seasons of football extinction, will have a chance Co go bowling with the proposed total of 22 bowl games to choose from. Appalachian State and coach Sparky Woods suited up for their first scrim­ mage Friday night and next season's game plan will not change: run, run, run. The obvious weakness will be ASU's passing game. Quarterback Todd Payton was respectable last year, but he will sorely miss wideout Troy Douglas. Also hampering the passing game is the loss of Kenny Williams, an academic casualty. Though the Mountaineers will feel the loss of running back John Settle, they will recover. The offensive line loses possible NFL draft choice Mike Calloway, but in his place steps James (Hardrock) Hardman. At 6-5, 275, Hardman and company may surpass those team accomplishments of last season. Other than Calloway, the offensive line rer ins intact. The question is who will tote the ball for Woods vitchie Melchor is the ob­ vious reply. Melchor carried for over 100 yards in two games last year and was Settle's backup. The darkhorse appears to be junior Tim Sanders. Sanders was the Southern Conference's Rookie of the Year two seasons ago, but last year he was ineffec­ tive. From the spring scrimmage, though, SanderSMooks as if he has returned to his old form. He has the better speed of the two tailbacks and if his mind is on what he is doing, he may turn out to be the starter on opening day at South Carolina. The championship, which was originally scheduled to be played in Lexington, Va. was moved to indoor courts in Stauton, Va. due to the in­ clement weather. ASU coach Bob Light was pleased to be able to play indoors. He noted that the same weather conditions occured in the ACC Championship last weekend, but not all coaches were in favor of competing indoors and the contest was delayed until the weather cleared. He cited the unanimous deci­ sion by the SC coaches as good sport­ smanship. Number one and two seeds, Eric Little and Sean Crosby, both won their first round matches, but had trouble afterwards. Little ended up fourth in his division, one of two ASU netters to make the semifinal round. Tim Smith was the other number six seed position. Other ASU finishes included: Crosby, seventh; Roderick Pierre, seventh; Dan Mackin, sixth; Allen Burchell, sixth. In doubles, Little and Crosby finished fourth, Pierre and Smith placed sixth, and Burchell and Mackin came in fifth. Light described the tournament as predictable."Furman and Chat- tanooga have been the two best teams since day one of the season with Davidson a strong third," Light said. "They were followed by East Ten­ nessee, Citadel, and ASU, with VMI and Western Carolina bringing up the rear. The biggest improvement was made by the Citadel who finished in fourth place." With Furman and UT-Chattanooga taking the top honors, the rest of the finishes were determined by key mat­ ches which could have gone either way. Even though the Apps didn't finish near the top, they did post a 12-11 winning season. Light found it to be well organized by hosts, VMI. He credits this to the Keydets' Davis Babb, who is an ASU Alumnus as well as VMI's athletic director. "I wish we could have done better," Light said. The kids really worked hard to improve, and they've been a good group to work with." Furman's Ned Caswell won the number one seed championship by defeating Ut-C's Andy Kim, 7-5, 6-3. Caswell had eliminated Little in the semifinals, 6-1, 6-3. UT-C was able to outdistance the Paladins for the SC crown. The Mocassins tallied 69 points to 61 for Furman. Davidson garnered 53 points for third. In the number two seed division, Davidson's Bill Young captured the SC title with a 6-1, 6-3 victory over David Detwiler of Furman. ASU netters concluded their season in last wee! Former ASU boss, Maravich, dies a D. MIKE CUITU By Mivr SMITH Appalachian Sports Editor Last week witnessed the passing of one of college basketball's most lasting figures and prominent names. Press Maravich, Appalachian State's basketball coach from 1972-75, died at the age of 71. Maravich was probably best known as the man who succeeded Everett Case as coach of North Carolina State in the mid-'50s. He would later move on to Clemson, LSU, and most recently, assistant duties at Campbell. Maravich came to Boone in 1972 in hopes of reviving a basketball pro­ gram that had suffered the loss of its — ' all-time winningest coach in Bob Light. The task proved to be too monumental for him at the time and Maravich struggled through seasons of 6-20, 5-20, and 3-23 before stepp­ ing down. The Apps had trouble adjusting to the Southern Conference and NCAA Division I basketball, which they entered in 1971 and gradually scheduled into. Previously, ASU had been a member of the NAIA's Carolinas Conference. Six seasons passed before the Mountaineers ex­ perienced their first winning season as an SC member under the direction of Bobby Cremins. M Dr. Jim Jones, ASU's chairman of Accounting, was the associate athletic director at the time of Maravich's hir­ ing. Some of the sparkle of hiring a big-name coach was made lackluster by the fact that Maravich was on the tail end of his career unlike so, many of the Mountaineers' previous coaches, according to Jones. "He had been released from LSU and was in between jobs," Jones said, explaining Maravich's reasoning for accepting the ASU position. "Also his former boss at NC State was the athletic director here (Roy Clogston). Maravich was not treated as a savior when he took over the Moun­ W taineer job.

It was the second demonstration this academic year on the issue, concluding a week of anti-apartheid activity. Those involved make up a small but determined group—the university flatly refuses to divest, but the demand continues anyway. ; Many disappointments have faced pro-divestment activists at ASU. The university does not appear any closer to removing investments in companies that do business with South Africa than two years ago when the debate first intensified. Groups like the Faculty Senate and SGA $enate recently rejected pro-divestment measures. . Sadly, many students do not appear concerned about the issue at all. Alongside those who have done research, formed an opinion and in­ volved themselves in the debate are those who do not know what divestment is and do not bother to find out. Whether one supports it or rtot, ASU divestment is a vital issue—so important that a group of peo­ ple engaged themselves in a week of protest. Such activity was rare at ASU until this issue got heated. Pro-divestment activists seem determined to continue protesting un­ til ASU changes its investment policies. This determination should im­ press those involved in the decision if they are interested in opinions circulating around the university community. People are concerned about where ASU's money lies—even those who disagree with the group's intentions and methods cannot dispute the value of such an interest in where the university stands. Keep divestment on the agenda. The activity certainly will not end with last week's march. Less on court Appalachian Columnist "There is a tiny heartbeat/That hasn't seen the light of day/Her mama's only 14/Does she keep it or throw it away?/She says her life's too crowded/It's got the trouble she don't need/So she hands the doctor her money/After all it's not a human being..." So begins a song by Steve Camp entitled "Bad News for Modern Man." If you read through the words again, it is clear to see the reference is to abor­ tion: the deliberate termination of a pregnancy. Each year more than 1.5 million pregnancies (in the U.S. alone) are ended this way. This figures to about 4,000 each day, meaning every 22 seconds a baby is aborted. Yes, I did indeed mean to use the word "baby" in the previous sentence in referring to abortion. I do believe that abortion is. the taking of a human life.. .but more on that shortly. Suppose a woman came to you who was pregnant and her family had a case history of syphilis, deafness and insanity. In fact she had already had a few children with birth defects. Would you recommend that she get an abortion? If so, congratulations! You've just killed Beethoven! Along with him you have also changed history by preventing an untold number of people from being influenced by his life and music. "But that's not at all the issue with the question of abortion," comes the reply, "and besides abortion is only done on a blob of tissue." "Blob of tissue" you say? Well, if you stop by the local library and examine a timetable charting the development of an unborn baby, you may find a few surprises. For those who are unfamiliar with abortion prac­ tices, the "average" abortion is not done until after this. In fact, a large percentage of women do not find out they are having a baby until about this time! This could be explained by the fact that the length of the embryo is only 1 Vi inches, even though all body systems are present! Before you think I am going to give an entire history of the development of an unborn baby, let me turn to a summary that submits four differences between the pre-born child and a born person. Dr. Steven Schwarz states these as: 1) Size: He says that a child in the womb is simply a smaller child and they are no less of a person because of their size. "A 100-pound girl is smaller than a 250-pound football player... Is the larger person any 'more person' than the smaller?" 2) Level Of Development: "A (born) baby is less developed than a teenager. Is he less a person? Less precious? Logically, no. The unborn is just in a different stage of development. 3) Environment: "A child in an incubator is no less a real child than the one in his natural surround­ ings." The pre-born baby is in an "jncuu or her own: the mother's womb 4, 0r"&tDependency: "We are all dependent J ' on r Of physically and psychologically. «n0 °ne man is island.' " But you may object and is getting his food from the mother s 5*'*^ feed yourself the day after you were b0°it)lG-io'J know of anybody who ever did n™:/11, .l<k did. Besid tot dependent child is a more fragile child r' more care and protection, not less." So, to me, the issue of abortion rests question of "is an unborn baby a human I not always think this and when challene d ~ above facts my conclusions were m ^ adt ftc stronger. Sure, there are many more questions concerning abortion that have been debated past decade or so. I am sure many people this will question me, as a male, writin ^ ^ nrannqnpir onH ohnptlnn •.I 8 iboilt pregnancy and abortion (since neither has obvio^fc happened to me). But let me close with a feu! that touch on the other issues concerning ab* Less than one percent of the women J?' raped become pregnant. It is legal in America to have an abortion thr jd the full nine months of pregnancy. Since abortion was legalized in the U s -h, abuse has increased over 500 percent due to ri devaluation of human life. Over 3 million couples are waiting to adonchild. Adoptive parents currently wait 3 yeirsl. forever for a child. An unborn child is not a potential human bei: but a human being with vast potential. "Half the people entering abortion clinics nev come out alive." Hetero, homosexual stereotypy harmful Refuting militant lesbian outcries By DAVID R. FARTHING Appalachian Columnist The recent approval by the SGA Senate Board of Review to imple­ ment a residence life intervention program will benefit both Student Court and Residence Life. The system will give Residence Life the jurisdiction to sanction students who commit minor infractions of the Judicial Code. ' This year the Student Court was sometimes backlogged with cases; most of these cases were drinking violations. With the intervention system Residence Life will have the opportunity to deal individually with minor violations, giving Student Court the time to spend on major infractions. First and second offenders will meet with the area coordinator, a trained student development specialist, who will determine the required service or penalty to fit the student's violation. The penalties and services required by offenders will be chosen to educate the student about the consequences of his or her actions rather than to punish them. Drinking violators might be required to plan a BACCHUS program on their hall. Someone caught littering might talk to the director of the physical plant to make him or her aware of the time and personnel re­ quired to clean litter from the campus. These are examples of the various penalties an area coordinator may ;require of a student. ! The policy is a positive move designed to release pressure from Stu­ dent Court and assist students in becoming more responsible members pf the university community. At the end of the fourth week the unborn (medically called an embryo), though he or she is only a mere four millimeters in length, clearly has an upper and lower body. Before this, his or her heart has already begun to beat and is pumping blood. During the fifth week of pregnancy, the eye is start­ ing to develop. Now seriously folks, does a "blob of tissue" have eyes? Let's examine further. The brain begins functioning during the sixth week. All 20 milk-teeth buds are present at six and a half weeks. By the eighth week the unborn baby has his or her very own fingerprints and he can feel pain. By WILLIAM O'FLAHERTY A friend was carrying a copy of the Lesbian Connection; I was curious and asked to read it. At first, I found the journal entertaining and infor­ mative, but then I grew angry. The ar­ ticles and letters printed were not only anti-male (as most lesbians are not), but they engaged in forms of printed oppression that women, gay and straight, have been complaining about for decades. One LC reader wrote "even if it's liberal boys who read this magazine, they are still boys and don't have any rights to our publications." Women have been angry for a long time, and rightly so, at being called "girls." Where does the author get off calling me a boy? What right does she have to tell me what I can and can't read? You can't fight prejudice with oppres­ sion, "sweetie." Oppression and in­ fringement of rights are what make life difficult for lesbians in the first place. Using it to get revenge on men will only separate lesbians further from the mainstream. The womanhating gay male and the man-hating lesbian commit the same injustice as the fag-bashing heterosexual; but in either case, it is the homosexual com­ munity which is hurt. Another perspective of Lesbian Connection that angered me was the superior attitude of its writers toward heterosexual women, men in general, and homosexual men. As another writer put it, "If AIDS is God's way of punishing gaysHesbians must be the chosen people." I would like to remind her that the tidal wave of homophobia caused by AIDS has af­ fected the lesbian community as well. The heterosexual masses don't distinguish gender among gays very much, except to ignore lesbians with the same consistency as they ignore women in general. As to the writer's assurance that lesbians need not fear AIDS, that same assurance is now slowly being eroded among the straight community. Take warning, womyn! The first documented case of AIDS transferred from woman to woman has been published. The basic feeling I got from reading Lesbian Connection was that lesbians (at least the readers of LC) feel themselves superior to the rest c "hu-MAN-ity." Angry for whatevi reason, these women have forgottt that they are people first, women ai lesbians, second. It is too import a to re-affirm this fact within each ourselves, especially those of us wl are oppressed and demand acceptan in the global community. The or way for gay people, women and ro alike, to gain this acceptance will to show not how superior they are straight people, but how much ali we all are. ©»98fe By U f e IIJ Mrttr HEU- How TO DRAW &IHW Leftists never talk about Sandinistas THE EASj WAy STACT dlTH A ..

LA BtBOL.9' Leftists are loud and vehement in their condemnation of the Nicaraguan Contras and their U.S. supporters. However, there are a lot of things they fail to mention about their Sandinista buddies. For example, leftists don't say very much about the crackdown on the press, oppression of the church, or the suspension of civil liberties in Nicaragua. Leftists also avoid mentioning thei fact that independent labor unions and opposition par­ ties are severely repressed by the Sandinistas. Leftists love to call the Contras "terrorists," but the Sandinistas certainly have nothing to brag about when it comes to human rights. During the first year after the Sandinista victory, there were over 2,500 human rights complaints. When the Nicaraguan Permanent Commis­ sion for Human Rights, which opposed Somoza, began investigating these complaints, the published reports of the commission were banned, and its leader arrested. The Sandinista secret police is 10 times larger than Somoza's, and routinely carries out summary executions and arbitrary detentions. The Sandinistas have over 4,000 political prisoners, more than Somoza's jails ever held, who are frequently tortured and abused. Alvaro Jose Baldizon Aviles was the chief of special investiga­ tions for the Nicaraguan Ministry of the Interior until he defected to the U.S. in 1985. Baldizon provided specific information (i.e. names, dates, and locations) about the murder of hundreds of Nicaraguan peasants, Indians, and opposition activists by Sandinista security forces. Human rights groups, whose statistics are often cited by leftists, were invited to interview Baldizon and repeated­ ly refused to do so. Minorities in Nicaragua have been brutally opPress When Nicaraguan Blacks protested against large numbers of Cubans in their communities, demonstra were arrested and beaten by the Sandinistas. In 1982. over 8,500 Miskito Indians were forcibly herded inio "relocation" camps, after their villages were destroy* by the Sandinistas. In all, over 110,000 peasants have been relocated to deprive the Contras of their supp°i As a result of this harsh treatment by the Sandinistas thousands of Nicaraguan Indians and peasants have i to Honduras and Costa Rica. Contrary to leftist propaganda, the Contras are no "mostly former National Guardsmen." Only 23 Perc^ of the Contra leaders are ex-National Guardsmen, w about 48 percent are former Sandinistas. The average age of the Contra fighters is 22. „ Leftists denounce anyone who works with the as a "mercenary," but say nothing about the manv Americans serving the Sandinistas.

Continued from Page 10 s whc in:( roe 1 be e to dike Leftists howl about U.S. "intervention," but Soviet-block military advisors in Cuba and Nicaragua vastly outnumber U.S. advisors in the entire Caribbean. Soviet military aid to Cuba and Nicaragua is 10 times more than U.S. aid to all of Latin America. Libyan and Cuban pilots are flying combat missions for the Sandinistas. The Sandinistas are supplying guer­ rillas and terrorists in El Salvador, Honduras, Costa Rica, and Colombia. Leftists seem to have the peculiar notion that non-intervention only applies to the U.S. This is unrealistic .and absurd. Any such policy must also be followed by the Soviets, Cubans, and Sandinistas. As long as the Sandinista regime resists democracy, exports revolution throughout Latin America, and hosts a large Soviet-block presence, The logic used by leftists is extremely selective, and their ethics are very situational. They can justify any act, no matter how heinous, as long as it is done by the Left. For example, leftists rave about U.S. "oppression," but they can "understand" PLO bombings, and they ignore the Soviet slave labor system. But even the leftist disinfor­ mation campaign cannot hide the fact that the Sandinistas, by their own admission, have a MarxistLeninist regime. Marxist-Leninism envisages no power sharing. History shows that Communism is always expansionist and oppressive. Ask people in Soviet Gulags or Viet­ namese "reeducation" camps. Ask people in Hungary, Poland, or Afghanistan. But of course, leftists don't want to talk about that. Edward E. West ASU Box 07741 JL ijjtf 1** " J. v 'fill if* jfy. ""jfe r ** • i ILL _i ft i i ON APPALCART ROUTE. 24 HOUR MAINTENANCE.

New Chief Justice approved Appalachian Photo by Pott* Jam** By TRENT HUFFMAN Appnlachian Staff Writer At its April 14 meeting, the SGA Senate approved Kim Gray to be the new chief justice of the student judiciary. "1 feel that I am qualified. I am familiar with the people jnd 1 am an unbiased person. I could work well with the justices next year and I would like the opportunity," Gray said. "Right now 1 think the senate and the judiciary work Altogether. I would really like to work with you and for you. I respect the opinion and decision of the Senate," she added. In other action, the Senate approved the SGA Budget for 1987-88, presented by SGA president and vicepresident elect, Carrie Ann Wolf and Adelaide Beeker. The total proposed budget of $31,250 represents an increase of $3,845 over the present budget of $27,405. Among the increases in the proposed budget are an increase in the student employees' salaries from the present $17,700 to $18,200 and an increase in the printing costs from $2,450 to $3,850. Beeker said the increases in the funds for student salaries is attributed to the addition of an off-campus cabinet posijon to oversee off-campus affairs and the creation of a igislative position to assist the SGA president and viceipresident. [ "Also we would like to increase the amount to Moun­ taineer Escort from $300 to $500 a year," Beeker said. "We do want to try to reward those people working with Mountaineer Escort," she added, "because they have worked hard on it. "The increase in the printing cost is to cover more publicity for Escort and just printing in general," Beeker «"d. Revisions to the ASU Judicial Code, as proposed by the iicial Review Board, were also approved at the meeting. )ne proposal to change the code would make it illegal students to be "visibly overcome by alcohol in any blic place." Currently the code states: "It shall be lawful for any student to be visibly overcome by alcohol any public place to the point that his/her behavior :omes disorderly." The proposal would change the code so that a student uld not necessarily have to be disorderly to be in violan. The Board also proposed adding a required post trial erview to the judicial process. The addition to the iicial code states, "Resident students who are found ilty of a violation of Student Law will be required, as rt of their sanction, to meet with their Area Coordinator the date indicated in the Official Letter of Notifica- Non-Resident Students will be required to meet with the associate vice chancellor for Student Affairs. Any student not complying with this stipulation would be found in contempt of court. The Board of Review also unanimously recommended the implementation of a residence life intervention system. "It's a proposal that we think will help student court. It will keep a lot of the trivial matters out of student court," Bevin Owens, current Chief Justice of the student court, said. "It will give student court a chance to focus on the important issues," he added. The residence life intervention process, which would handle minor infractions of the judicial code, would more actively involve resident assistants, resident directors and the area coordinators. The first three offenders would be handled by the intervention process but students would have the oppor­ tunity to have their cases sent to the student court at any time they chose in the intervention process. The case would be automatically sent to the student judiciary after the third offense. Gray, in addressing the residence life intervention process in the student judiciary and the issue of academic integrity, said, "As far as the sanctions go, the residence life intervention process is good. I think that right there will be a major factor in next year's court. •The Senate also heard a report from Brian Groh, SGA administrative assistant, regarding the installation of the ASU Spirit Bell. The proposed Spirit Bell, a 12 to 14 foot tower which strikes on the hour and at various school functions, will be installed near Belk Library. The cost ol the Bell is $15,000, with $3,500 to be contributed by SGA. "We're still in it for the $3,500 we committed," Groh said. SGA will be accepting donations from students this week. The Senate approved Britt Burgess as a new Senator for Gardner Residence Hall. "I've always thought govern­ ment was fascinating. I've heard that the Senate up here was really something and I wanted to get involved," Burgess said. "It makes me happy to see so late in the year we have a new Senator," Bill Cannell, SGA vice-president, said. Cannell also made several award presenations for Senators who have done outstanding work in the SGA. Jon Sattler was named Senator of The Month for November; Dede Dwinnell was named Senator of The Month December and January; Patrick Vickers, represent­ ing Gardner Residence Hall, was named Senator of The Month for February; and William Fields was named Senator of The Month for March. Other Senators named for their outstanding service were Kirsten Skoonmaker, Gary Greene, Jennifer DiNunzio and Brenda Griffin.

"Of primary concern immediately is get­ ting medical attention for the victim," Tugman said. Security also assists' in getting counseling and consultation. Security investigates in order to prosecute, but it cannot prosecute if the victim does not want to press charges. "I believe on the resources we have available we do a good job. No, we don't have a zero rate, but we re striving for it. Although we do have some instances, we feel we have a low rate compared with other campuses our size," Tugman said.

Assistant Ntwt Editor Thousands of women are raped in the United States each year. It is estimated by OASIS, Inc., a rape crisis center, that one out of every four women will become a rape victim. Less than ten percent of these rapes are reported. The reluctance to report rape is mostly due to misconceptions about victims' obligations after the rape is reported, the complexity of the judicial system and the fear of publicity. The following is an interview with a recent rape victim and a representative from OASIS. OASIS aids victims of rape, sexual assault and domestic violence, providing shelter, a 24-hour hotline and free counseling and advice to victims. Represen­ tatives are also available to be present with victims during legal proceedings and medical exams. Ann (not her real name) approached The Ap­ palachian hoping that, through the interview, she can help others become more aware of the campus and community services available to victims. Support for victims is available through counsel­ ing services like OASIS and ASU Psychological Ser­ vices. The police also offer protection and the District Attorney's office will provide legal advice and representation. Ann stressed, however, the necessity for victims to understand all available options before a final legal decision is made. A rape or sexual assault victim can change her mind about prosecution at any point. Ann: I went through OASIS, the crisis center, and then Dawn went with me to the police station. And from there they took my statement. I would suggest, instead, that you go to a lawyer first. You can go to the crisis center, but I suggest you go to a lawyer first to see where you stand, then take the lawyer to the police station with you. Right now, I've just hired a lawyer. I've already been to see the DA (District At­ torney) and everything. I've been through the pro­ cess so far, but I did see a lawyer and she is going to help the DA with my case. So, we did go to the police station, and they were very helpful as far as being supportive and saying they would do anything if I needed any help. There are very negative things that you have to think about, yet the positive thing is that they do convict people for rape. It's not something that's treated lightly. OASIS: There are currently two detectives in the police department who work with sexual assault cases so they are familiar with all the cases that come into the police department, and they handle those kinds of cases as opposed to a field officer (handling sexual assault cases). This is somebody who is specifically trained to help, not just sexual assault, but any of those kinds of crimes. It's much more private, it's not like an open room. Ann: And then, after that, they consulted the DA's office about my case without me directly talk­ ing to the DA; I think that might have been a prob­ lem for me because I really wasn't sure what was go­ ing on. It wasn't necessarily the police's fault, because I did not know the system. 1 didn't know what "assault" was. I didn't know what "sexual assault" was. I didn't know what "rape" was. I knew that I had been raped, but I didn't know what constituted any of the other things. When (the DA's office) said, "Assault is the best thing we can go for," they were going merely on the conviction, whereas my purpose in doing this is: even if he is not found guilty, at least he is reported as raping some one. There's always a chance you could lose either way. Dawn made an appointment to talk to the DA for me and we talked with him for two days. Another thing, too, is that it's not just one DA in the DA's office. The man that the detectives had talked to was one of the assistant DAs, whereas we talked to the head DA and he may not be the one that prosecutes. You may not know who's going to be in court with you. It just depends on who's on rotation that week. If you hire a lawyer he or she can help with the case so that nobody's going in cold. I want to find out (which will be handling the case) so that I could talk with the DA or whomever it is a week or two in ad­ vance so that I could explain my case again. The DA was very supportive. He did give you a lot of negative facts because it's (prosecution) not easy. OASIS: He (the DA) wants to make sure that you understand when you're going into it that he can't guarantee a conviction first of all, and that the case See RAPE Page 5* L �THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDAY, APRIL 23, 1987 aagaa* ^ , * w « • » • i g g k®§^ i Parking problems discussed By MATT HAWKINS Appalachian Slaff Writer The ASU Faculty Senate met last Tuesday and discussed problems with parking and the use of classrooms after hours by students. Several faculty members complain­ ed that they had no place to park their cars after hours for night research because the ticketing hours are not long enough. "We need an extension of the ticketing hours both in the morning and the evening," Campus Planning Committee Chairperson Virginia van der Bogert said. "Students mostly like to park in the lot next to Whitener Hall because it is close to places like the library, the Sweet Shop and the bookstore." "We need the ticketing to start earlier in the morning as it is difficult to get a space when you have an 8 o'clock class," she added. Vice Chancellor tor business Af­ fairs Ned Trivette said there were pro­ blems with ticketing in bad weather. "ASU Security has been more lenient with ticketing in real bad snow because it is harder to tow the vehicles," Trivette said. "However, Director of Security Roy Tugman has notified me that they (security) plan to spend $20,000 for a new wrecker with a plow on the front. This will make the towing job during snows easier." New Senate officers for the 1987-89 term were also elected during the meeting.

That's why our -service and rehabilitation programs emphasize the whole family, not just the cancer patient. We run local programs with volunteers who are recovered cancer patients, or whose lives have been touched by family members or friends with cancer. That's what makes us one of the largest, best motivated and most caring of any health organization in the country. Among our regular services we provide information and guidance to patients and families, transport patients to and from treatment, supply home care items and assist patients in their return to everyday life.

Then, under the New GI Bill, I'm getting another $5,000 for tuition and books. Not to mention my monthly Army Guard paychecks. They'll add up to more than $11,000 over the six years I'm in the Guard. And if I take out a college loan, the Guard will help me pay it back—up to $1,500 a year, plus interest. It all adds up to $18,000—or more —for college for just a little of my time And that's a heck of a better deal than any car wash will give you. When my friends and I graduated from high school, we all took part-time jobs to pay for college. They ended up in car washes and hamburger joints, putting in long hours for little pay. Not me. My job takes just one weekend a month and two weeks a year. Yet, I'm earning $18,000 for college. Because I joined my local Army National Guard. They're the people who help our state during emergencies like hurri­ canes and floods. They're also an important part of our country's military defense. So, since I'm helping them do such an important job, they're helping me make it through school.

You're having to prove that you did not consent and that is very hard to do in our courts. It's important that victims know that this is what they are getting into when they go to court. They can very easily be victimized again unless they are aware that that's possible. I don't want women who have been raped to think that means they shouldn't go through with (prosecution). The up-side is that the District Attorney is also there to ask questions that are beneficial to the victim's case. If the defendant testifies, he can very easily be badgered, too. There's always that possibility that the case will come out (guilty) and destroy him. That's the up-side. Continued from Page 1 through a purse, can make a dif­ ference. "I think it's a good idea for ladies to carry a whistle in their purse or on their person," he added. He said that officers do patrol the ASU campus. "All we can do is to be visible," he said. In 1986, three sexual assaults were reported to the Boone Police Depart­ ment. "We haven't had any so far this year," Kerley said. "For the amount of people we have in this area, we are doing a good job. Boone has a smaller crime rate compared with similar cities its size," he added. Kerley said that any sorority or other campus group wanting to have a program on rape prevention should call the Boone Police Department and ask for Jeff Rucker or himself.

Dawn Whitehead, coordinator of the Rape Response Program, said that the role of OASIS was basically to provide "compan­ ionship and advocacy." Whitehead said that OASIS volunteers were available to go with the victims of sexual assaults to hospitals, the police department and court.- OASIS also provides shortterm counseling and emotional sup­ port for the victims and any friends or relatives of the victim. So far this year, the crisis line has received five calls from rape victims and the organization is still working with victims of rape that occurred last year. "The numbers are higher than most people believe. A lot of people don't believe rape occurs in this town but it does, obviously," Whitehead said. "We do provide the advocacy that other agencies don't provide and that's certainly a big help. Probably the most valuable service we provide is companionship. We do work in cooperation with a lot of other agen­ cies in town and without their sup­ port we wouldn't be as successful as we are," she added. The telephone number for the crisis line is 262-5035. The ASU Medical Services is also available to help victims of a sexual assault. "Most of this type of activity occurs when no doctors are in so they are referred to the county hospital," Dr. Evan Ashby, director of ASU Medical Services, said. "We actually don't get very involved because of the time of day attacks occur and the need of a gynecologist to thoroughly examine the patient," he added. From the hospital, rape victims are usually sent back to ASU Medical Services to determine if pregnancy has occurred or if there is any chance jf disease. Victims of a sexual assault may also be referred to the New River Mental Health Center or the ASU Counseling Center if counseling is needed.

Dr. Mary Connell sampled river water below the effluent, or outlet where treated water enters the river, and found high concentrations of these compounds creating an unhealthy environment for diatoms, an algae that forms the base of the food chain. River water above the effluent was normal and had a healthy diatom community. Connell said Boone's sewage treat­ ment plant functions properly. "The plant itself is doing what it was intended to do," Connell said. "It is a secondary treatment plant that removes and processes all solids, so that no organic sewage enters the river." Ammonia is a byproduct of urea found in sewage, she said, while most phosphates enter the sewer system in detergents. The N.C. General Assembly is debating a ban on phosphates in detergents because phosphates are a nutrient that "fer­ tilize" a river, causing some algae to grow profusely while others with more food value are choked out. Connell called diatoms "cornfields and wheatfields" for invertebrate insects like mayflies and caddisflies and other aquatic life at the bottom of the food chain, because these insects prefer diatoms to other food sources. "Upstream of the effluent, diatoms are 90 percent of the food-producing plants in the river," she said. "Only one organism is growing down­ stream—small unicellular algae that is not a good food source. It's like tell­ ing you to go out and eat wood and get something out of it—it's the wrong kind of food. Invertebrates prefer diatoms and we've knocked out their food supply." On the average a river will dilute phosphates and ammonia within 12 miles below their source and food communities will again begin to grow. The South Fork has a small volume of water, though, while pollutants become more diluted in a larger volume of water. By sampling water up to six and a half miles downstream from the effluent, Connell said she found the river beginning to recover, but nutrient levels are still higher than at the control site upstream from the plant. .The amount of phosphates in the "The South Fork is not in terrible shape, but I think those of us who live in the area should realize that an increase in population will increase the impact we have on this stream." Dr. Mary Connell. river increased threefold between 1984 and 1985, and those levels are still rising, she said. Connell said she believes that three car washes opening in Boone over that period contributed to the rise. Scientists at the Virginia Water Control Federation told Connell that phosphates in car wash detergent are especially hard to remove from waste water. She also said she found levels rising when ASU goes into session and fall­ ing when school closes, because the town plant operates at capacity when the university is open. The town is considering enlarging the plant, and she said that should help. Tourist seasons cause little change in the river, she added, probably because the plant processes only town sewage while tourism is spread around the county. Connell also said that a phosphate detergent ban will reduce the amount of phosphates, but not ammonia, in the water. Ammonia by itself or with phosphates will reduce the quantity of preferred food available in the river. During debate on the ban detergent makers recommended tertiary treat­ ment at the plant, which means expanding the plant to allow it to remove chemicals such as phosphates and ammonia. Connell said tertiary treatment would be very expensive. Connell said the river is in good shape overall. "The South Fork is not in terrible shape, but I think those of us who live in the area should realize that an increase in population will increase the impact we have on this stream," she said.

It's not like I'm going to really care after this year. For me, it's not going to make a difference one way or another if ASU gets big names for concerts next vear because I'm not going to be here. However, I think there are more students out there who also don't care but certainly should. They will be here. Last year, my freshman year, I was such an apathetic little snot. I had one of those flippant, non-participant attitudes. Hell, I had one of those ASU attitudes—I went home almost every weekend. In fact, I did that as recently as last semester. For all I knew ASU could have been closing down on the weekends. And unfortunately, I was not among the minority. T remember one of my professors last semester saying that he has never seen a university where it is common for such large numbers to go home (every?) weekend. One of my friends recently termed ASU the "suitcase campus.' By ANNE RASHEED Appalachian Staff Writer Every year millions of Americans die from heart and lung disease. The cause: Smoking. Society and new health awareness are gradually put­ ting more pressure on smokers. ASU and the American Cancer Society have joined together to assist students, faculty and staff in their attempts to quit smoking. The Fresh Start Stop Smoking Program, developed by the American Cancer Society, will soon get underway. The sessions are offered on April 24, 27, 29 and May 1 from noon to 1:00 p.m. in the Workman Hall conference room. The Appalachian interviewed Susan Stamper, the campus coor­ dinator of the program about the event. I remember also hearing several students complaining that there is nothing to do in Boone on weekends. That made me wonder if these people had even spent a weekend in Boone. True, these whiners may be a few of those trusty students that stay in Boone on weekends, but they may also be some of the ones that go home every weekend. They probably wouldn't have recognized a weekend activity if it crawled up and bit them on the ass. And, in all fairness, I probably wouldn' have either. This semester I've tried to take a new attitude. Because I almost lost my opportunity to go to school here this semester, I've stayed in Boone on weekends in an attempt to get the most out of the school. Disappointed? No I've enjoyed it. The weekends, much of the time, are what you make of them. And, if the activities on the weekends aren't exactly what you think they should be, going home every weekend certainly isn't going to help them to get any better. I had that attitude with concerts last year. "The Romantics?" everyone was saying in disbelief. "Wow, The Romantics!" I thought. I wasn't crazy about The Romantics, but hey, this is Boone. I thought it was great that it was a nationally known band. But all I heard were complaints, began to think I was too easily satisfied, settling for something that wasn worth attending. Yeh, stupid. Then the Bangles concert came around. This time there was a little more enthusiasm but still a lot of complaints. I thought it was fantastic—a national ly known band that had a big hit.. .in Boone. Luckily, by this time, I had also become a bit wiser. "If," I thought, "I don't support this concert, a concert for someone I may not love, but at least I like them, then how the hell do I ever expect A.P.P.S to bring in someone really big?" This philosophy carried through to the Joan Jett concert this year. Again this was not the biggest of the big, but, I thought, a good catch by A.P.P.S thought it would sell out fast. I had a friend in line an hour before tickets were to go on sale. We were thinking it would really be a big event. We forgot one thing, however, we're at ASU, apathy heaven. Then, a few days before the concert someone told me A.P.P.S. was spreading rumors that Michael J. Fox might show up to boost ticket sales How sad! I didn't think it was sad that A.P.P.S. might do that. (I've been told they didn't) I thought it was sad that something like that would have to happen before some people would want to attend. What am I saying? Well, I'm not quite sure. Maybe I'm saying that Appalachian students don t appreciate a good thing when they've got it. Or maybe I'm saying they just like to complain. Or, maybe, there's just no pleasing them. I just think it's rather ridiculous for the advisers and members of A.P.P.S to work to provide weekend entertainment and good concerts for such a generally unappreciative (undeserving?) group. Two weeks ago I attended "A Night Out With Jane Powell in The Pub. I didn't know what to expect. Now I'm not quite sure what I got. She did Aretha better than Aretha and Anita Baker as well as, if not better than, Anita Baker. It was great. It was different. And the point here is: If I hadn't gone I wouldn't have known. So* if you didn't go you must not know. Get the picture. Sometimes there's a lot missed by keeping one's suitcase packed. Honest Q: The Cancer Society is known for their various programs to assist smokers who are trying to quit. How is this program different? A: The Cancer Society has con­ ducted stop smoking programs for a very long time. They have had very long programs that were six to eight sessions in length and met two to three hours per session. They realized that no one has a lot of time to come to programs and that there were cer­ tain parts that were "the meat of the program." So they cut down to the very basics on how to stop smoking. They call it the "no-frills" program. We're not going to spend a lot of time doing extra stuff; we're just going to do what's necessary. Q: What kind of outline are you following? A: Basically we give a lot of infor­ mation in a very short period of time. The American Cancer Society calls the program "Four Information Ses­ sions." What we have done at ASU is add another session that gives an introduction to the series so in­ dividuals can come to the First session and choose whether they want to come back. We feel like this is the most positive way to do it. Q: Some programs use scare tac­ tics; how does this program address the problem of quitting? A: It's a very positive program using a very positive approach. We do not spend a lot of time on the health effects of smoking or preaching to individuals. We feel like they know what the health effects of smoking Special (o The Appalachian ipsp Appalachian Photo by Chariot Fulkt FLYING HIGH: Lately a small breed of skateooarders has infested our campus.

Backwoods campers need not limit themselves to canned beans and candy bars when it comes to mealtimes, because with a little preparation they can make nearly anything they cook at home. Kim and Don Sherrill, instructors in ASU's Outdoor Adventure Pro­ gram, learned from experience that good food in the wild is vital for morale on camping trips. They taught an outdoor cooking workshop recent­ ly for about 10 ASU students at the edge of the woods near the Broyhill Inn and Conference Center. "Good food can make or break a trip," Kim said. "It's important because you expend a lot of energy and need the proper nutrition. As for morale, food that's the same con­ sistency and color and the same foods all the time are not enjoyable." The Sherrills honed their outdoor cooking skills as instructors for Out­ ward Bound and the National Out­ door Leadership School in Lander, Wyo. "The most exciting thing for students there was not climbing a 12,000-foot mountain, but knowing how to cook yeast bread when they got home," Kim said. Cinnamon rolls are simple to make on the trail and lend variety to a camper's menu.

"We like to carry whole wheat because it's more nutritious, but it's heavy, so we mix it with white," Kim said. Add two teaspoons of baking powder to two cups of flour, mix, and add an egg or three tablespoons of powdered egg. Eggs will last through a weekend trip if broken into a water bottle or carried in an egg carrier. Add five tablespoons of powdered milk and half a cup of margarine or butter. The Sherrills use butter only in the winter because it keeps better in cold weather. Mix thoroughly, add water and mix until the dough is sticky. A quarter to a half cup should do it.

When I hear one, I become entranced and held in a child­ like awe. Something which seems so general and basic as speaking takes on an almost mystical hue. The rush of sounds lighten my ears with an infec­ tious rhythm. Because I do not understand the meanings and con­ notations behind the words, 1 become lost in their range of sounds and har­ mony and, in short, the language becomes a sort of music—a music that lands on the ear, but pierces the soul. As language takes on this quality of music, it awakens our curiosity. The sounds become a form that we try to give shape to. In our minds, we create images that complete a picture—the picture of a foreign land. I have worked with students from China, Germany, India, and Africa. I have never been to these places. What I know of them is limited to what I have read or seen in pictures. Yet in hearing these languages, I can sometimes believe I feel the heat from the noonday sun in the African sky or the flow of the cool breeze in the Black Forest of Germany. When I hear a different language, I can im­ agine the children and the older folks speaking that way. I can imagine what they look like and what they think about in their moments of silence. In doing this, we are able to see with our ears, much like a blind person creates a world from sounds. These images we create are forged in the fires of the mind and cooled in the waters of the imagination. Language contains the force of culture, strengthened by centuries of repetition and usage. The sounds have evaporated into the air and rush through the ancient currents of wind. If the wind speaks to you, it is because it has listened carefully. Of all the languages, I think French is the most pleasant sounding. It has a smooth, fluid quality—like the flow of water. Its sound caresses the ear. Even in translation, French is in­ triguing. In our country, we are familiar with the phrase, "Love at first sight." The phrase is literal; we would probably know what it meant if we had only heard it for the first time. In France, the same idea is ex­ pressed by "Le coup de foudre," which translates into "The clap of thunder." This has a more poetic and imagistic quality. It seems to come closest in describing the spontaneous and powerful nature of this emotional experience. If there is any special significance for me when I listen to foreign languages, it does not come so much from any understanding of what is said, as it does from an appreciation of it. It is an experience that will not allow me to deny the world of its diversity, because it challenges the limits which have been imposed on my knowledge of the world. These limits, or rather boundaries on my perspective of the world around me, are not the result of a conscious ef­ fort, but rather from no effort at all. We are often bound within limits for the simple reason that we have never tried to go beyond them. They are themselves self-imposing, and exist due to our indifference to shrug them off. In this respect, knowledge is no different. It too can become bound up within limits, limits which exist simply because we believe them to. Hearing different foreign languages lifts me beyond these limits which ex­ ist in my perspective of the world. It awakens in me a shudder, a disbelief, and finally, a realization that people of different cultures, countries, and beliefs do in fact exist. I knew this before, but I feel it now. This is the difference; knowledge transcending the tiny spectrum of facts and information, and entering into the realm of emotions and feel­ ings. Few experiences allow the two to unite. Listening to foreign languages does this for me. This is why I become a captive audience when I hear them, when the meaning of what is being said is no longer important, and I care only for the way the sounds play on my ear.

If you've tried to quit before the most positive way to look at it is as a learning situa­ tion; to understand and look at the utuation and ask yourself some ques­ tions: Why did you fail?

A: We invite you to come to the sessions; but if you're not ready to quit, you don't have to quit. We don t tell individuals they have to quit on a certain day. The program is individualized, and we help each individual make up their own plan of how to quit. And if there's a person who s wavering, who's not sure or committed, it's real good to come on to the program and learn what we have to tell them. This way, they'll have the information when they're teadv. I hey may be ready in the middle ot the summer when we're not offering the program.

"We drink hot chocolate with margarine melted in it before we turn in on winter trips, because margarine has slow-burning calories that keep you warm all night." Campers should also drink plenty of water to replenish what's lost to perspiration and respiration. Summer campers need two to three quarts and winter campers need three to four quarts a day. NOLS tells camper: to drink enough water to keep their urine "copious and clear" and they'll never get dehydrated. The Sherrills have two final sugges­ tions for gourmet campers. In areas where bears are a problem, such as the Smokies, take enough rope to hang food high in a tree at night, lest the bears wipe out your supply. No matter where you go, leave soap at home. "You can sterilize utensils with hot water," Don said. "Even biodegradable soap won't break down in cold streams, and just a little bit of soap residue on your utensils can cause diarrhea.

I will not and can not keep silent any longer about the hopelessly middle of the road (M.O.R.) music that is played here at ASU. No, I am not talking about WASU (people have been bitching about them for years but they never change). You might think I am complaining about a sucky band booked for this year's big concert, but after one too many disasterous big concerts (The which could be more or less deemed H'Appy's Hits the Great Outdoors. When H'Appy's changed from grocery store to nightclub, and opened its doors in the spring of 1984, it was a very special happening here at ASU and in the state. It was the first time (and the only time as far as I know) that a univer­ sity in North Carolina created a nightspot for students to party in while listen­ ing to live bands perform or D.J.s spin discs. It was a much needed club back then, in the wake of the closings of bars in Blowing Rock (before Boone had beer) like P.B. Scott's or even Mother Fletchers. The ASU administration saw a hole develop in student life with the demise of these historic student patronized nightspots (and a possible drop in ASU enrollment if word got around that there was nothing to do in Boone), and filled the hole with H'Ap­ py's. It was a fine idea with even finer intentions, this club, a great example of the administration listening to and fulfilling the needs of the students here at/ ASU. But fine ideas with finer intentions die hard under the crush of boredom, and that is exactly what H'Appy's has become: boring. Why? From the day H'Appy's opened, the club has rarely strayed far from serving up the same old dull and dreary, hackneyed Top 40 cover bands, funkless funk, beach music and downright awful rock and roll bands. And not just once, but over and over—often the same bands and the same kind of bands have played at H'ap py's since the day it was born. Just to name a few, there were Zipper (the very first band to play at H'Appy's), Pegasus Rox, Sneaky, Threshold, The Male Men, Thin Men, The Voltage Brothers, The Heat, Radar, Autograph, Seaboard, Xenon, Brice Street, Panic, Split Decision (playing this year's Yofest), Chairmen of the Board, and who can forget our multiple times H'appy's star performers Sidewinder, The Creek (formerly Sugar Creek—now "sugar-free"—pass the barf bag, please!), Super Grit, The Cruis-O-Matics, The Back Doors (another of this year's Yofest bands), and The Spongetones (frankly, if I want to hear The Doors or The Beatles, I would just as soon listen to the real thing and not some rip-off, copycat artists). These bands have played here pretty constantly for the last three years at H'Appy's, and before that, most of them (except the funk stuff) played at P.B, Scott's. But then, what is H'Appy's but a poor man's P.B.'s anyway? And isn't it strange that P.B. Scott's old band programmer is currently managing and helping to program H'Appy's with input from the Appalachian Popular Programming Society (A.P.P.S.) stage show council? Oh, there have been occasional lapses in this usually moldy middle of the road mixture of pop, funk, beach, and rock music, like the raggae band Awareness Art Ensemble, so-called "big" H'Appy's show like Joan Jett, or when local bands like The Right Profile, Three Hits, Discord, Not the Numbers, or The Vibrosonics (who are probably the most successful local band to play at H'Appy's since they've done it several times) get to play. Un­ fortunately, most of the time our own local bands have been regulated to play at the Student Union Pub instead of getting to play the big time (ha) at H'Ap­ py's. And I must say I have always been rather perplexed and mystified as to why—given that ASU and Boone for years has been a hot bed of talented and exciting-up and coming bands like the ones above (and Dionysion Tapestry, The Alligators, The Outer Limits, and Voce')—just why has ASU hardly ever shown the support and faith to book them into playing H'Appy's? Oh yeah, hey occasionally get thrown a gig at the Student Union Pub and, this semester and last year at the holy H'Appy's), there was the series of local band shows (which were great), but usually our own local band's shows are too few and far between, even at the Pub. 1 guess it's better now than it once was. I remember when local bands like The Right Profile, The Other Mothers, and The Opposition had to fight to get a ?ig on the very campus that most of their members attended school (ironical]y. The Profile played more at P.B. Scott's). This lack of exposure did not stop The Right Profile from making it big, having recently signed a record deal with big-time label Arista Records. I wonder if The Profile ever does make it big here in the U.S., if ASU would have them play here again. Even more im­ portantly, I wonder if they would consider coming back? After the way they Were treated, I doubt it. It's not that the Pub is such a bad place to play—in fact, I think it s a much "iter and a more intimate place to see a band than a remodeled super­ market—but why not H'Appy's? My guess is that it is a definite lack of faith on the part of H'Appy's programmers (which used to be done by Complemen­ tary Education but is now handled mostly by an A.P.P.S. council), that these °cal bands will not draw big enough crowds to support a H Appy s show. It is '[tie that bands like Sidewinder and The Creek for some strange reason con­ tinue to keep pulling in healthy crowds, but why wouldn't our own ands—given the chance to play a few times and build an audience be able to "aw large crowds as well? I mean, there is certainly enough variety among our ^al bands, from new music to blues to flatout rock and roll, to appeal to the masses of ASU if given the chance to play. Who knows, H Appy s might find Jnew audience of people here at App instead of the 1,000 or so people that e®P showing up for Sidewinder and The Creek. Which brings us to the most important and the most infuriating point of this Co|um , which is that A.P.P.S. (and Comp. Ed. before them) obviously does n 1101 give the students of this university much credit for any taste, intelligence, y °penmindedness in choosing and listening to bands when they are con;ant'y bringing back the same middle of the road crap. Even when the bands ,°change in name and appearance, the music usually sounds the same.

It depicts an overweight, shirtless jerk, holding a beer can. We're lucky enough to get a "worm's-eyeview" of this guy, so we're not to miss any of his distinguishing characteristics. As your eyes move up the picture, you're introduced to this lovely creature's bulging crotch, overlapping beer gut, shit-eating grin, and last but not least, his cool mirrored sun glasses. Judging from the decision to use this fine work of photography as the cover, I'm assuming they don't want to be taken seriously. On the other hand, when I listened to the tape, my opinion of the band's intentions changed slightly. They are good musicians who want to be taken seriously but can't because of a few limitations on their part. The main problem is the lyrics and the way they are sung. The lead singer, Tom Shaw uses a fake British accent that never flows but is choppy and annoying. What he sings about is, of course, girls. What's worse is his limited vocabulary. The words "you" and "your" become a little redundant after he repeats them approximately 155 times in 11 songs. But if you can ignore the Loverboy-like lyrics, then things begin to look up for Urban Edge. Well, not quite. You see, the existence of R.E.M. has ruined the music scene for garage-type bands. By gaining popularity, R.E.M. has trademarked the "jangley guitar" all for themselves, so for a band to have a "jangley guitar" sound is only asking for trouble (1 know from experience!). Only during Tom Shaw's guitar solos can one ignore the R.E.M. sound-a-like. Actually, his solos are quite interesting. His talent really shows on "Walk On By," "I Don't Want You," and "Morning Earth Turn." Also very promising is the rhythm section of Urban Edge. The drummer, Jerry Finley, adds some interesting rhythms instead of the straightforward beat that the music suggests. Jerry Chapman plays a funky, fast-moving bass that gives the songs a lot of punch. A good example of the two musicians work­ ing together is on "Walk On By," which begins with just the two of them setting an upbeat mood for the song. Specifically, the high point of the tape is a 4-part harmony at the end of "Morning Earth Turn." I only wonder why they chose not to harmonize more often in their songs. It could really help some of these songs that are lacking in vocal range. They could also use a little imagination. It's obvious that they are from North Carolina by listen­ ing to the "jangley guitar" and by noticing the predictable song structure. They need to concentrate on a new set of lyrics for these songs. Maybe a little emotion? The cheesy rhymes need to find their place elsewhere. Possibly a Hallmark shop? I guess it's true what the Chairman of the Sigma Nus (at Furman University) said about Urban Edge being more fun than anyone should be allowed to have. But being a "fun" band can get you nowhere fast. B e a t l e s " F o rn Sale" c o m p a c t d i s c o By TIM RILEY Collrgr Prtss S*rvic« The Beatles were our first recording artists, and they probably are still our best. So when Capitol Records began releasing original Beatles music on compact disks last month, people everywhere began to invest in CD players so they could hear John, Paul, George and Ringo with the highest possible fidelity. The first four British albums -Please Please Me, With the Beatles, A Hard Day's Night and Beatles for Sale - were released in their original form. This marks the first time this music has been available in the U.S. with the layouts and arrangements the Beatles themselves intended. The re­ maining albums will be released in in­ stallments throughout the year. Capitol's history with this band is anything but generous. In the sixties, Beatles records were dissassembled and re-sequenced for the American audience, creating more records - and more profits - from the same amount of material British fans got. But this time around, Capitol is do­ ing things right. Even though the first four records were released in monaural instead of stereo, producer George Martin - who worked with the group during its heyday - is working on the future releases. "Of course I would have changed things," Martin says today, "if I had today's technology. But the actual quality of the recordings I'm very pleased with, listening to them again, going back all those years. They have a tremendous drive and vivacity and cleaniness which I'm very pleased about." Martin was involved in reworking the middle period records - Help!, Rubber Soul, and Revolver - that are due out in stereo in April. "When I heard the transfers that had been done I didn't think they were very good and should have been cleaned up," he says. Living "So I asked if I could listen to the original four tracks that had been done, and I found there were things on there which could have been put over on to compact disk much better, so I've been working on that." He's been working, he emphasises, "not to change anything, but to clean up the sound. It's surprising how ef­ fective it is because on CD you hear so much more. You hear distortion and all sorts of things you'd rather not hear, things you didn't hear in the original songs." Critics still argue which was the Beatles' best album, though many choose either Rubber Soul (1965) or Revolver (1966). It was the period in which the musicians began composing more with the studio in mind, just before they gave up touring. Rubber Soul is about romantic astonishment, containing such seminal songs as "Nowhere Man." The tone is dusky, and the range of moods is remarkable. Revolver is a more complex record. It begins with George Harrison's "Taxman," moves through romance ("Here, There and Everywhere") and disillusionment ("She Said She Said") to Lennon's metaphysically ecstatic "Tomorrow Never Knows." Whichever is the best, hearing these albums through the miracle of CDs' unvarnished clarity should be a revelation. The next group of releases is due in June, with the 20th anniversary of the most notorious release of all time: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. And even though Pepper is the Beatles' most overrated album, K will probably be a boon to CD summer sales, spurring interest in other CDs and signalling a revival of a See BEATLES Page 12 THE BEATLES: George, Paul, Ringo and John back in the spotlight the Wild The Autobiography of a Editor's Note: This is the seventh installment in a series detailing the life of a woman who lived a so-called "punk" lifestyle in New York state. This is a true story. The woman is cur­ rently a student here at ASU. By HELL MARY Appalachian Staff Writer Part VII—Same Times, Different Place After I transferred from the State University in Albany, New York, I had some of the best times of my life at Morrisville State University located as close to the center of New York state as you can get. I met my best friend at Morrisville, via my little brother. Her name is Em and we survived some wild times. We both worked at the campus radio station where we had the number one radio show; it was called Commander Salamander and Billy I. Until the midnight hour, we'd have parties and contests on the air, all to the beat of the newest progressive music. One weekend I took her to get her first tatoo. She fainted in the middle of the whole thing; it was so embar­ rassing! One cold, snowy winter night, Em and I hitchhiked to a Psychadelic Furs show, 40 miles away from Morrisville. Even as cold as it was, we made the show in plenty of time. After the show, we were invited backstage (gee, I wonder who managed that?) to party. I saw Richard Butler (Furs' but summer came soon enough. I let all my friends know where I would l?e for the summer so they could get in touch if they came to the city (especially Bones, the singer for 76% Uncertain—the guy whose band I followed around on tour because I had a huge crush on him). Anyway, I packed my things, threw my pet boa constrictor in the car, and left Morrisville for a FUNTIME in the city! The nursery where I worked had plenty of clients, from estates to cor­ porations. I dug holes for flower beds and prepared soil for grass planting. I learned the pleasures of clean, hard work. There's nothing like the blazing sun on your back, causing sweat to drip from every crevice of your body, to let you know that you're alive. lead vocalist), who was then one of the best smacked out singers in new music, sitting across the auditorium. I yelled his name, but he ignored me so I started walking towards him. I got about 20 feet away from him, when he stood up and walked into his dress­ ing room. What a snob! Later, Em transferred to another school, so 1 was left to fend for myself. I decided to try and get a job in New York City for the summer— little did I know my best dreams and worst nightmare were soon to be realized. Soap Opera I'm sure my life sounds like a soap opera, but then what are soap operas but life, exaggerated and dramatized, to make some kind of point. I didn't know what the point would be to all I had experienced and was soon to experience in my life but it certainly had the feel of good melodrama, and like all good soaps, I felt mine was inching towards its climatic ending. During my spring break of 1986, I went to New York City to look for a job. I was hoping 1 would be able to move there for the summer, live with my grandparents, work, and have a great time hanging out in the city. My grandparents lived just outside of New York City in Stanford, CT, so I would have to commute but that wouldn't be so bad. I was hoping to find a high paying job but any job would have been great since, at the time, unemployment was 18 percent in upstate New York. Listening to the great radio stations as I drove to Stanford from Morrisville, I heard that Echo and the Bunnymen were playing in nearby Hartford. The minute I got to my grandparents' house, 1 was out the door to get to the show. I had seen Echo the year before an 'he band had been mesmerizing; t. y didn't disappoint a second time. It was a great show and a perfect way to start spring break and a week of job hunt­ ing. It took all of my vacation for me to find a job—working as a landscaper for a booming nursery business. 1 went back to school after break, Regis • The first weekend I was there, I was invited to a party at the Anthrax, a hardcore/punk club owned by a guy' named Kevin and his brother. Bones was supposed to show up, but he never did (he still had his girlfriend tagging along all the time). I met a guy named Regis, though. He looked lik$ he could be James Dean's brother if James Dean had one. We hit it off really well and before 1 knew it, he asked me out. Regis was older than me (he was 28, I was 22)—that didn't really mat­ ter—but I soon found out he was See PUNK Page 13 �12 THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDA Y, APRIL 23, 1987 Beatles Continued from Page 11 psychedelic sound already creeping into today's music (witness: the Bangles' Manic Monday).

Well, on the horizon back in 1982. £y!eir arrival was unheralded; just another bunch of guys 1* thought they had that little something extra that *'ould propel them to fame. Now, three albums later, they ve used that little something extra to make a name for Punk themselves. And it's all so simple. Night Ranger's fourth LP, Big Life, is the icing on the cake for all those people who thought they could not make it, and it further emphasizes the key to success. Night Ranger is not a musical revolution. They are not a poetic manifesto. But they are something that is rarely found on the rock scene these days. They are a band that looks and sounds truly alive. Back in 1982, with Dawn Patrol, they impressed me with their pure energy and spirited performance. Since then, they have failed to disappoint. Midnight Madness (1983) and Seven Wishes (1985) are packed, beginning to end, with high-powered rock. And now, with Big Life, has come their best yet. If you could ever consider a band to be in high gear, then Night Ranger is there. They whip through this album in maximum overdrive without missing a beat. It's smooth as silk, finely tuned, and overflowing with energy, enthusiasm, and talent. And it's all pure and natural. The most remarkable fact of all is that it never gets out of control. It is like trying to pop the clutch on your 455 Trans Am without leaving half of your rubber on the street. Try that one sometime. Brad Gillis and Jeff Watson are, in my estimation, two of the finest guitarists in the world. If Eddie Van Halen can make a guitar talk, then Gillis and Watson can make it sing. The difference here is one of control. Gillis can flatout fly through a solo with crystal-clear mastery. His him.

Now he was living with his mom about 15 miles from my grandparents' house. He had left his "'wife" the year before in California. tnarried. when The next weekend, Regis went to a rally with a friend of his pete, leaving me behind to entertain myself for the weekend—and that's exactly what I did. To my surprise, Bones called me up—he had ditched his girlfriend and wanted to have a -endezvous with me. I couldn't refuse. I had been in love/lust with him for two years, though I couldn't really pin down what turned me on about him. We met each other at a Dunkin' Donuts, and then went to his place for some very wild sex. motorcycle When Regis got back, he told me about his adventure at the rally—how drls would get $2 for flashing their •itsto guys, how he had to sleep under fccar to avoid getting run over or kat up. He asked me what I did and I old him about my incredible fling nth Bones. He got very angry with ne, not understanding why I would romp with Bones but not sleep with I had many expectations for my summer in New York City: to see PiL (Public Image Limited—Johnny Rotten's band after the demise of the Sex Pistols), The Cure, Johnny Thunders, go out with Bones if possi­ ble, earn enough money for school in the fall, see Andy Warhol if possible, etc.... That week, tickets went on sale for a PiL show—wow! I bought two tickets for Regis and me. For the trip to the show (in the city), Regis got his usual 12-pack of beer and a bag of pot. I never saw him eat a thing—he just drank and smoked cigarettes and pot. We got to the city early so we went to a bar and had a couple of beers. In the bar, Regis spent a long time in the men's room. After we left, on our way back to the car, Regis threw up and began to have convulsions. This lasted for about 15 seconds and then he was fine. I had no idea what was going on—he said it was a reaction to his asthma medicine—I was soon to find out that it was something else. On our way into the Agora Ballroom, where PiL was playing, lead singer Johnny Rotten was walk­ ing in the club with his wife at the same time Regis and I were. I yelled, "Yo Johnny!" He turned and smiled—he was too cool. The show talents are well taken advantage of, too. Previous songs such as "(You Can Still) Rock In America" and "Touch Of Madness" are testimony to this. On Big Life he is again in top form. It's a good thing, too, because not far away, lurking in the shadows, is Watson, who can fire back just about anything Gillis shoots at him. Jack Blades on bass, Kelly Keagy on drums, and Alan "Fitz" Gerald on keyboards round out the band. Blades and Keagy share in the vocal chores and, for the most part, the writing, although Gillis, Gerald, and Watson also keep their hands in the compositions. A lot of rock bands have disposed of keyboards, but this basic element is wellperformed by Gerald, whose contributions are evident in all of the pieces. This band is well-rounded, and the individual talent runs wild, but, amazingly, it never conflicts. Like I said before, Night Ranger is no poetic manifesto, but the same kind of energy that runs in their music spills over into the lyrics. In their four albums, they have written some truly beautiful material, like "Sister Christian" from Midnight Madness and "Goodbye" from Seven Wishes. Off of Big Life comes "Rain Comes Crashing Down, " a soft-rock tune that blends the band's electricity with Jack Blades' peaceful lyrical composition. "Color Of Your Smile," "Love Is Standing Near," "Secret Of My Suc­ cess," "I Know Tonight," and the title song "Big Life" was the best I've ever seen in my into what ever kind of mischief they entire life; words can not describe the can find... Regis and Ozzy decided they thrill. wanted to make a trip to the Bronx. Regis' Secret Why? I didn't know, I just went along The following weekend, Regis said for the joyride. When we got to a cer­ that he was going to Brooklyn to visit tain street there, Regis rolled down his a friend of his Ozzy (no, not that window. A man quickly approached Ozzy you metal heads). He asked me our car and Regis asked him for 2 to meet him at Ozzy's apartment after Doggies, and then handed him a $20 I got off from work. I agreed, getting bill. I still had no idea what was hap­ lost three different times in Brooklyn pening, though I was starting to get a before I found Ozzy's place. We hung good idea. The man left for a couple out for a while and then went to the of moments but then returned and park with some beers. Street people handed Regis two little bags of brown are the cheapest and most fascinating powder. I then knew that I was in the form of entertainment in NYC. Bums midst of a drug deal, but I still had no sleeping on benches, guys peeing on idea what drug Regis and Ozzy were trees, prostitutes teasing, kids getting buying. (2k are all well-written pieces that are filled with youthful exuberance. The best is "Carry On," a Blades/Keagy col­ laboration. To describe the tone of this one only takes the following two lines: "When your world is falling down/I'll be beside you right or wrong." It surely would not win a Pulitzer, but the attitude is what is important. This sort of traditional thinking is generally found lacking these days. With Night Ranger, this is the key. They have the proper attitude for success. They approach their work with deter­ mination, enthusiasm, and a fistful of resources to work with. Their energy should keep them in the spotlight for a long time. Hopefully they now have enough material on tap to go on national tour, because on stage is where they really come alive. Their show is an athletic event becoming of a Lakers' game. Seeing Brad Gillis spinning on the floor while ripping through a solo is a sight that would give even Angus the shakes. They know how to give an audience their money's worth. For those who have forgotten, it is called the work ethic, and a lot of bands could take a lesson here. So, for those who have grown weary of the high-stakes, freaked-out world of modern music, there is still at least one band out there that has not lost sight of what it's all about. "How can I say what has never concerned me/The secret of my success is I'm living 25 hours a day." We pulled away and went to a McDonalds' parking lot. Regis and Ozzy pulled out syringes—I knew then that the drug was heroin! They carefully melted the heroin down, loaded up, and shot. Up until that moment, I had no idea that Regis was a junkie. They got off and then wanted some more, so we headed back to the street. Regis then told me that he's been a user for eight years and had been to two Methodon clinics to try and stop. Obviously, they hadn't worked. Brown Sugar We got some more heroin and found another empty parking lot for them to get high. Once again, I 50c e,7+ watched as they carefully prepared their solution and loaded up the syringes. They rolled up their shirt sleeves and tied off their arms to find that sacred bulging vein; I noticed the track marks on their arms. Regis and Ozzy then inserted the needle in their flesh like some strange sexual or religious act, and then set the golden substance free in their bodies. Regis asked me if I'd like to try it. I didn't know what to say. I asked him what would happen. He said I might get sick and then I might get high, incredibly high. I said yes... To be continued—the final chapter in two weeks.

Julius Erving: passing the torch Last weekend was the end of an era in professional sports. And the beginn­ ing. When Julius Erving played his last regular season game on Sunday, profes sional basketball lost a player (to retirement) who has had more impact on his sport than any other athlete in the history of pro sports. In his 16 seasons in the ABA and NBA, Dr. J's eye-popping style on the court and his tremendous personality off the court have changed the game for the better. Efving is among a handful of superstars who kept fans interested in the ABA. When the ABA folded and several of its teams joined the NBA, interest in pro basketball was waning. NBA teams were losing money and didn't have any irue superstars to perk up interest. Dr. J filled that role. His awesome leaping ability and spectacular (< baol£ to pro ball. At a time when pro sports are riddled by drug scandals and "problem" players, Erving has remained a tremendous role model. He's a player whom kidVeverywhere could emulate in any way and be successful. Last weekend, the "Doctor" assured his place among the sport's greats. In his final home game in Philadelphia, he scored his 30,000th career point. Only twopther players, Wilt Chamberlin and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, have topped that-plateau. Since Chamberlin and Jabbar are seven-footers and Erving is six-foot-six, 'Doc's" accomplishment shines even brighter. For years, it appeared that there wouldn't be anyone to take Doc's place as the NBA's resident superstar/role model upon his retirement. But in the last three years, a suc­ cessor has been found in the person of Micheal Jordon. Jbrdon (of the Chicago Bulls) is the most flambouyant player in the game today. He won the NBA Slam Dunk contest, and he's the league's leading scorer this season. He sells out arenas wherever he plays. The average season ticket sales for the Bulls before Jordan was around 3,500. Now the Bulls lead the league in season ticket sales at just over 16,000. There's little doubt that Jordan sparks fan interest. Last Thursday, Jordan went over the 3,000 point mark for the season. The only other player ever to score that many in a season was Chamberlin, who topped the mark three times in his career. Jordan's status as a role model also appears to be intact. He works with the Special Olympics and other public service organizations. He publicly speaks out against drug and alcohol abuse. Kids look up to him. Erving will never be replaced. His style of play did so much to affect the game's evolution that it has earned him a special niche of his own in the history of the sport. While Jordan will not replace Dr. J, he may make more of an impact on the sport by the time he hangs up his sneakers. Jordan claimed last week that Erving was his hero. He went so far as to say that he patterned his whole game after the Doc's. Jordan seems to have taken to the pattern pretty well. Will Jordan's impact be greater than Ervings? Only time will tell. Mountaineer pitcher Stacey Schneider took the loss, dropping him to 4-3. Schneider gave up three walks and was shelled for four hits in his two-thirds inning of work. Seven runs were credited to him. The Yellow Jackets big gun was Riccardo Ingram. His double chased home K.G. White and Ty Griffin, both of whom had singled. "Georgia Tech is a super team," ASU coach Jim Morris said. "They had been ranked number one in the nation for some of the year and right now they are eighth or ninth." "Other than the first inning, we played really well. You can't give a team of their caliber that many op­ portunities. It's like playing Oklahoma in football and fumbling three times on the one yard line." ASU ab rbi r h 3 0 0 Elliot If Riley ss 1 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 Appalachian State University hosted the eighth annual Mountaineer Trade Classic last weekend where the men^S track team is preparing for the Southern Conference Championships in anticipation of their fourth con­ secutive title. ASU Coach Bob Pollock said that the classic was a great opportunity for the team to warm up for the cham­ pionship. "We had some great com­ petition at the meet and for the rest of the year," Pollock said. "The guys really put in 100 percent to do their best." ASU has experienced success from almost every event. Freshman Pete Vandenberg has awed the competition and will be a major force on the track team in seasons to come. Vandenberg finished first in the 3000 meter steeple chase event with a time of 9:19.8. That ranks him second on the ASU all-time list. Vandenberg's was not the only first place finish for the Mountaineers. Marshall Pitts came in first in the 200 meters with a time of 21.75. Darryl Russel also brought home a first place win in the 100 meter dash with a time of 10.72. ASU's bread and butter event may be the 400 meter relay where the team once again captured first place with a time of 41.98. The surprise of the day came when the Conrad Stadium record for the triple jump was broken. Not by Michael Hanks, but by team mate Warren Posey. Posey has been in the shadows of Hanks all season and now has accomplished a record of his own. His leap of 51-11 Vi gave him the win as well as the new standard. Hanks was not to be outdone as he came in first in the long jump at 24-3. "We're looking forward to the SC meet being held in Conrad Stadium and we hope that there will be sup­ porters there to cheer us on," said Pollock. "The guys have worked real­ ly hard to win the championship and they are determined to get it. I'm pro­ ud of them."

ASU players await NFL shot By TROY DOUGLAS Appalachian Staff Writer Although the season doesn't get underway for another four months, the ASU football team is hard at work in Conrad Stadium. The Apps are in the third week of their annual spring drills, which will conclude with the Black and Gold scrimmage game on May 2. Offensively, some familiar faces are absent from spring practice. Among those are graduating seniors John Set­ tle, Troy Douglas, Russell Payne, and Mike Callaway. Settle, the Southern Conference's all-time leading rusher and 1986 Player of the Year, awaits Tuesday's NFL draft to decide what his future holds. The two-time All-American will be hard to replace but ASU Coach Sparky Woods has capable players waiting in the wings. "We can't ask one person to replace John," said Woods. We are hopeful that our three backup tailbacks, Ritchie Melchor, Tim ASU Track Clastic 100 meter— 1. Darryl Russell, 10.72 2. Marshall Pitts, 10.74 3. Ray Carmichael, 10.99 200 meters— 1.

Pete Vandenberg, 9:19.80 (2nd in ASU history) Sanders, and Dewayne Pelham will all play up to their capabilities and con­ tribute. Douglas, who was quarterback Todd Payton's favorite target, takes with him the ability to get open and make the clutch third down reception. Combined with the loss of Kenny Williams (academics), you can see why Woods is concerned with depth at the wide out spot. Sam Wesley, Wardell Jefferson and Joe Briggs are all vying to replace these departed players. While Woods feels these players are capable, he is "more concerned about receiver than any other position on the team." The offensive line probably has more depth than any other position, despite the loss of the Jacobs Block­ ing Trophy winner, and its runner up. Gone are Mike Calloway and Russell Payne, but Woods welcomes two potential all-conference players in James Hardman and Steve Wilkes, respectively, to replace them.

All-leaguers Chris Melick, Cedric Felton and Jimmy Armstrong have departed as well as Darrvl Russell, Tommy Dawkins, Chris Moore, and Manfred Irby. On the defensive line, Woods has moved all-conference guard Anthony Downs to defensive tackle. He, along with Jimmy Snowden, Chris Conner, and Dennis Sanders, create a for­ midable front wall. Defensive back is a position that also has holes to fill. Quincy Bethea and Leonard Lee, both vicious head hunters, will control one corner and free safety position. The other corner has yet to be filled in spring ball, an a freshman could see immediate action. , "It's unfair to compare this year s squad to last year's by its record, said Woods. "This year's schedule's a lot more challenging than last wit the addition of South Carolina who is replacing Davidson. NFL DRAFT PROJECTIONS FOR ASU 1) John Settle (RB) 5000 meters— 3.

"Because of the bad weather last week, we missed about a week of bat­ ting practice," Morris said. "We haven't been able to get in any kind of groove. Now that the weather has im­ proved, I hope we can get going this weekend."

The freshman settled down and pitched well over the next five inn­ ings, allowing just one run. Georgia Tech's stopper, Todd Shiver, did just that to the Moun­ taineer lumber to improve to 7-1. On the season, the Apps had hit for a .320 team batting average, but could manage only four hits. ASU centerfielder Keith Nail ac­ counted for the Mountaineers' lone run in the eighth inning with his se­ cond home run of the year courtesy of Yellow Jacket reliever Joe Wise. Leadoff batter Andre Crawford, a .453 hitter this season, was hitless in three at-bats, including two strikeouts. Morris has been forced to juggle his lineup due to the many nagging in­ juries suffered by the Apps. Shortstop Gary Chandler has the most severe problem with muscle spasms in his back.

JAMES Photography Editor I.Al'RA BODENHFJMER Cops Editor pho JODV BROW N Editorial Production Manager KRISTIN HIL1JCGAS Advertising Production Manager Victims on trial People are finally showing concern about sexual assault at ASU. Female students have reported several accounts of assault recently; probably even more incidents go unreported. For several reasons, assaulted students do not take legal action. Society has created a system that makes a criminal out of the victim. In many cases, the woman must prove herself innocent instead of proving the criminal guilty. In a system where the defendant is innocent until proven guilty, the situation is reversed. In sexual assault cases, the vic­ tim is often the one on trial. A common perception is that the system makes a crime out of being Assaulted. ; Because of this image, women hesitate to report assault. Some feel it is too much trouble; don't want the negative attention or publicity; or—most commonly—they don't want to report the incident because they are aquainted with the attacker—"date rape," as it is often called. Obviously, the system is greatly flawed. However, much of the pro­ blem is related to lack of familiarity with the legal procedures. Women who are aware of how assault cases are handled are better equipped to take the legal route-toward having an attacker convicted. One student assaulted recently is now going through the legal pro­ cess. She says that authorities have actually been helpful and con­ siderate, but recommends that victims learn about the system. If vic­ tims remain ignorant, legal decisions will be made for them by court authorities. Consulting a lawyer first—before any legal action is taken—can prevent many problems. To avoid confusion during testimony, it is also recommended that the victim write down exactly what happened. These hassles are just part of a greatly imperfect system. However, it is all we have. If legal action is not taken at all, the attacker is left com­ pletely untouched. The procedures are complex, and victims must be informed about the process. Working with the system—flawed as it is— is the only way to move toward preventing more attacks. A free ride iC tiw .'Students planning to drive to YOFEST Saturday better think again: because of drinking liabilities and a wet field, transportation will be limited to shuttle buses provided by the university. While this rule may seem silly and inconvenient to some, it is actually a blessing. No one will drive drunk (unless one chooses to do so after riding the shuttle). Considering the latest drinking laws—where drunk drivers are justly more apt to be punished, and so many students are unjustly prohibited from drinking—the move is not surprising. The liabilities for an event at which so many people will be drinking alcoholic beverages (some of them illegally) are simply too great. In addition, Camp Broadstone officials prohibit parking on a wet field; a condition that is probable considering recent weather. Instead of complaining about having to ride the shuttle, students should be thankful. It is a free ride, and no one has to worry about who is driving. §ui Anally retentive economics CATHY PARKS Copy Editor MARSHALL PITTS Circulation Manager UU=e IN H6LU The Appalachian By TOM WELLS Tom Wells Opinion Page Editor It's all their fault. Those durn Japanese. I ain't prejudiced, but Lord only knows what a lifetime of eatin' raw fish will do to your brain. Pretty soon you'd start gettin' the ol' Mr. Limpet complex, start chasin' fishing boats or somethin', I don't know, maybe start thinking that American goods aren't so worthwhile. It's true, I seen it on the T.V.. I got up early this morning and turned on the tube, hoping to blast some of that early morning sleep out of my eyes with some radioactive glare from the screen, and there on the Today show was former Commerce Secretary What's-his-name, spouting off at the mouth about how the U.S. is missing out on a really huge market for card tables and chairs in Japan, not to mention raw goods. Hmmm. Japan's banana republic, the United States. It has a pleasant ring to it, sort of a tropical type thing. I set to figurin' out how many card tables and chairs could possibly be produced and exported in the next year. Personally I think the sky's the limit. If every man, woman and child could just pro­ duce one card table, or one chair, just think what a dent we could put in that trade deficit. It would be—,well, it would be really big, wouldn't it? Then we wouldn't have to borrow any more money from the Japanese. , I'll tell you what else those crazy Japanese are do­ ing; they're refusing to buy our high-tech equip­ ment, microchips and the like. The Japanese pro- duce the best microchips in the world, it not the cosmos, and yet they can't see the simple logic in im­ porting inferior microchips or any other kind of high-tech products from the U.S. Gosh, are they nuts, or what? When you go out to buy toilet paper, do you want to buy a roll of linen napkins? No way! You want to buy cheap, inexpensive paper, and if you could buy the ol' six roller at a good bargain, you'd probably do it. Well, there's your analogy, the Japanese need to start thinking in those terms. American high-tech equipment, to the Japanese, is quickly produced, cheaply made—just like toilet paper—and we're willing to export it any time. If we could package the things in inexpensive six roll packs, we could make a fortune. The falling dollar? Who cares? It's a boon, I tell ya! The Treasury Department is always trying to devalue the dollar whenever the trade deficit gets too high. The rising yen and resulting falling dollar has passively solved the problem for us, saving those people in the Treasury a lot of time and tax—oops!

Countries that have deep seated psychological problems therapy, just like people. It's their problem? ours. Our economy is fine. Isn't it? Does espionage constitute death penalty? By MIKE HOBBS Special to The Appalachian The cries of frustration have begun. South Carolina's Senator Ernest Hollings told an audience in Charleston earlier this month that if any of the Marines who have been charged with aiding the KGB in Moscow are found guilty, they should be shot. "If you execute one of them then you don't have to worry about a young fella getting excited about women," he said. In Washington, Pentagon officials are hoping to have the Marines tried in a military court so that the option of the death penalty will be open to them. But should the guards bear total and ultimate responsibility for the security lapse? Two years ago a government report pointed out the weaknesses in embassy security that allowed the Marines to let KGB agents into the building, but nothing was done to correct them. U.S. intelligence agencies have known for some time that the KGB has schools where they train attractive women the arts of prostitution and spying. To send young, unmarried men to guard embassies that employ women who can be assumed to be Soviet intelligence agents was negligent on the part of someone higher up in the chain of command. The Marines made serious and treasonous mistakes. And they should pay for them. But to take their lives as a symbolic sacrifice for others will not solve the problem and it would not punish everyone responsible for the crime. It would only serve as a symbol that politicians hope will convince the voters that they are dealing with the problem. This case serves as a perfect illustra­ tion of the typical unfairness of the ways in which the death penalty is often imposed and why it should be stopped. Amnesty International has launched a worldwide campaign to end the use of the death penalty in the United States, andvAe need your help. Amnesty International views the use of the death penalty as cruel and inhumane treatment that is a violation of basic human rights. There is substantial evidence that the death penalty does not deter crime and that it has been inflicted on the innocent—at least 23 times in the United States in this century. The death penalty has become a horrifying lottery in which politics, race, where the crime was committed and the quirks of the legal system play a more important role in sending the defendant to the death chamber than the circumstances of the crime itself. A Texan, Doyle Skillern, and an ac­ complice were both found guilty of the murder of an undercover police officer in 1974. Skillern, who had been sitting in a car when his accomplice killed the police officer, was executed in January 1985—just about at the same time his accompfe became eligible for parole. The death penalty is cruel, li Indiana in 1985, it took 17 minutes and five jolts of electricity to execute William Vandiver. In Mississippi Jimmy Lee Gray was executed its poison gas that caused convulsions that lasted 8 minutes during which Gray gasped for air and struck his head against a pole behind him I! times. In Texas, James Autry'sexecution by lethal injection in 1984 tookat least 10 minutes during which much of the time Autry was conscious, moving and complaining of pain. pap The death penalty is more expen­ sive than life imprisonment. A 198! See TRAITORS Pagel &' ©1966 By MAtf GrCveN'NO i mm ts m. tu mm.wt m ws&ht m&m u&J' m ma Was Orwell an oracle ? By DAVID FARTHING Appalachian Columnist As a work of fiction and minor social comment, George Orwell's 1984 is significant literature. As a possible scenario and major source of worry and discussion among us citizens of the post-modern world, 1984 is only so much bunk. It illuminates for us Orwell's time, our past, not our future. And our future should concern us a good deal more than any fictional, futurist vision. The main problem with Orwell's novel as possible reality is that social change is much slower than he predicted, but technology is changing far faster. And thanks to widely differing speeds of change, a worse society than Orwell's could occur sooner than 2084. The most important technological change in the development of Big Brother Government is the telecom­ munications satellite, that orbiting hunk of metal that sends pictures and takes them, too. A few years ago, Russia and the U.S. could come together at the nuclear negotiating table with the assurance that neither could possible know what the other was really doing. Today, with new spy satellites, they meet with surety that the other does know. Oddly enough, on the geopolitical level this new development has kept the peace; we can be relatively safe from the outbreak of a major hot war in the next few decades. On a personal level, however, the idea of listening to your next-door neighbor via satellite has serious im­ plications. The other breakthrough technologies that pose a threat in conjunction with the satellite are the home computer and the television. In the near future, say IBM executives, we will be able to bank, shop, order a pizza, and ge^ ^ lege degree without needing t o leave home. We n e ^ actually meet other real people; we'll just deal wit ^ ^ ages and computer-printed ideas, the ultimate remote control. omPuterS Mass communication satellites and home but exp°* o together separate us into individual social units a .^£rent us to more and more other social units from ollf cultures, backgrounds, and ideas without 'ncreawe pli­ ability to accept these others.

In short, how can a government ever convince its citizens that killing is wrong when it kills people for killing people?
