Source: Fermented grains, fruit juices, honey, potatoes, etc.

Use in USA:

An average of 182 gallons of beer, or 36 pints

lOO-proof whiskey consumed for each person over 16.

Immediate effect: Stage 1: Cortex of brain affected - driving concentration, simple arithmetical abilities are impaired. Insight is dulled, then lost. Stage 2: Cerebellum is reached, resulting in decreased muscular coordination, garbled speech and unsteady walking. Stage 3: Unconsciousness, coma and death may result.

Long range effect: a) Personality structure altered. b) Cirrhosis of the liver.

After effects: Fatigue, nausea, depression.

Alcohol and other drugs: When combined with other drugs, alcohol can lead to serious and possible fatal effects.

Alcoholism as a disease: Once a true alcoholic starts drinking, he cannot stop short of abysmal intoxication. The alcoholic is thus an addict, hooked on alcohol.

21

Immediate Effects: An increase in sensory input results, with colors more brilliant, music fuller and larger, smells richer, food better tasting. Elation or depression may result, depending on the mood of the person.

Long-Range Effects: There is nothing in the scientific literature to indi~.ate that any long range effects result from manjuana.

After-Effects: Effects of marijuana are maximum after 30 minutes, diminished after one hour, and almost completely gone after three hours.

Marijuana and other drugs: The correlation between heroin addiction and smoking tobacco and drinking alcohol is higher tha~. that between heroin addiction and smoking marijuana.

The drug abuse problem has spread to include all segments of our population. Today the drug abuser may come from our "best families," highincome, educated and cultured. Today the drug abuser is not automatically a minority group member, economically deprived, the traditional "scum of the earth" of classical literature. Today's abuser cannot be classified according to race, economic status or social class. Perhaps the largest and certainly the most aggressive of the agencies working in the field of drug abuse in EI Paso is Aliviani, Inc. A federally funded group consisting of 70% ex-addicts (who know the drug abuser, his hang-ups, his dodges and can empathize with him (or her) on a basis of solid reality). Aliviani's workers go into the community where the problems are and then give whatever aid and counselling is required to help an addict save himself. This is treatment, and caring, and help on a one-to-one basis. Aliviani operates four programs in the field of drug abuse treatment. These differ from the usual treatment centers in that NARA, (Narcotic Addict Rehabilitation Act) works in close harmony with federal judges in the area, providing drug abusers with an escape hatch away from the horror and the stigma of a prison term. When the addict enters the program, he becomes an in-patient for six months (group therapy, individual counselling, medical and psychological treatment) and then is released to live in the community for the rest of his time, returning to the NARA center for frequent interviews and counselling sessions. This is a voluntary commitment on the part of the drug abuser. In addition to this part of Aliviani's work, various store front centers are maintained for the youth of various parts of the city, and still others are in the planning stage for Smeltertown, Kern Place, Ysleta, South EI Paso, Northeast El Paso and Eastwood sections. The cooperation of other social work agencies is essential. We see people helping other people, individual and collective concern, planning and caring for those in need of assistance. The world of the youthful drug abuser in EI Paso can be a lonely and hostile place. Aliviani and similar agencies in the field of drug abuse are doing much to provide a second choice, a way out for these young people.

YOU GOT A FRIEND: Connection . Rap House. Hot Line Connection is a studentoriented program to help any studen tmeet a crisis, providing a bridge to professional help. Volunteers are trained and supervised by professionals in the field. The most important attribute sought is the ability to relate freely with genuine feeling. The initial contact is made via phone, but students are seen personally when necessary. Plans are underway for a drop-in center to open in the fall. A group program to build socialization and interpersonal relationship skills is also planned. The"program is primarily preventative in nature, designed to provide a means of resolving a conflict within an individual before it evolves into chronic mental illness. It bridges the gap between psychological pain and the necessary professional assistance.

28






Quality Education For All It is a fact that minority group

children are encouraged to attend technical high schools here in El Paso. This situation is similar to the one in England where working class children are "tracked" into vocational courses and upper class students are practically led by the hand into taking courses which will prepare them for colleges and the professions, thus perpetuating the existing class structure within that country. Now, this is not to say that there is anything intrinsically inferior with the education dispensed at technical high schools. The point is that when children are believed to be fit only for technical high schools because of their places of residence or their ethnic background, their freedom of choice is drastically curtailed and the entire structure of our nation is weakened. Even the academic college degree is not the magic key to social and economic success that it was at one time. And there are probably some college-educated professionals who would be happier behind a monkey wrench or laying bricks. Quality education should not be restricted to any given ethnic group or one area of the city. Quality education should be readily available to each and every school child in El Paso if our democratic concept of equality of opportunity for each citizen is to have any validity at all for our time.

In this crucial year of decision this nation can well be taken over by the forces of apathy and lethargy, with candidates for major offices being elected by a minority of the total voting potential. Voting, therefore, becomes not only a right and a privilege, but also an obligation of good citizens everywhere. An informed and involved electorate is the only sure safeguard of our nation's future. It behooves each voter to learn about the candidates, make his selections and then vote according to his convictions.

A Personal View of Texas Politics by Dr. Edward Leonard

38

The realization of what was happening to El Paso, and perhaps to American politics, .dawned on me that hot May evemng of the precinct convention. Living at that time, somewhat misplaced in one of this city's wealthiest and most conservative precincts, I, and a couple of other over-30 McGovern supporters, had made a small, last-minute effort to organize the area. We planned a token protest against the anticipated Humphrey-Wallace domination of the precinct, and hoped, with luck, to send perhaps two or three McGovern delegates to the County convention. We stood, lonely and apprehensive, outside the tennis club where the precinct convention was to be held. Then it began - the young people, a few servicemen, but mostly students, began arriving. We knew several of them, but the rest were simply faces we had seen in the SUB or the LA building, or perhaps at the Village Inn. To our astonishment, the McGovern supporters, mostly young people, made up an overwhelming majority. Suddenly, politics in El Paso had a new face. Oddly, in our precinct, at least, it hadn't been planned, it had just happened. With the bemused consent of the few members of the Old Establishment who remained, our precinct elected a 100%McGovern delegation to the precinct convention. Next Saturday, Liberty Hall looked like the SUB during a 10 o'clock class break. Certainly there were some businessmen and union people there, but the tone of the convention was set by the students and recent graduates. What had happened in Precinct 10 had, with variations, happened throughout much of the County. Levis and work shirts, cut-offs and halters - no previous convention had ever looked like this. We elected a 70% McGovern delegation to the Texas state convention. Now, however, the Old Establishment began fighting back. The County organization challenged, on what seemed to be technical grounds, the at-large part of the McGovern delegation. A month later we drove to San Antonio knowing that we were not likely to be seated. A phone call from Sonora verified our fears. The State Credentials Committee was overwhelmingly "old politics," and, while the McGovern delegates elected in precinct caucuses were seated, we atlarge delegates never really had a chance. That night, convention eve, 1,000 McGovern delegates and alternates caucused at La Villita. Altho~gh Pierre Salinger spoke, the crowd's enthusiasm was reserved for Sissy Farenthold. When Sissy was introduced, the crowd went completely wild. We clapped, whistled and hollered for 10 minutes. Texas Progressives had found a new leader. Next, the El Paso M'cGovernites caucused at the Blue Bonnet Hotel. Many were from UTEP. Among these were Cynthia Ballentine, Gigi Blum, Al Chavez, Tex Holmes, Chris Johnson, Juan Paz

and Eddie Salazar. Bob Brischetto and I represented the UTEP faculty. Understanding that we would not even be allowed inside the convention hall, we at-large delegates and alternates met the next morning in Tony and Alice Petry's r00!l1 in the Blue Bonnet. We decided to give it a try and walked along the river to the Hemisfair site. After considerable confusion we were let inside the hall. We went to sit, officially recognized among the seated EI Paso delegation. The first major issue was the matter of our being seated as delegates. When the vote came, an unholy alliance of Wallace, Humphrey and "uncommitted" delegates voted against us, and we were relegated, by an overwhelming majority vote, to the position of interlopers. The "old politics" having triumphed on the first crucial issue, it seemed that the "new politics" game was over. This proved not quite the case. Roy Orr, head of the State Democrats, and "old politics" personified, was the organization's choice for convention vice-chairman. The McGovern forces, with other progressives, nominated Eddie Bernice Johnson, an under-3D black woman from Dallas for the post. It seemed like a quixotic move. However, a young smalltown-looking bleached blonde woman wearing a Wallace hat took a microphone and, to our surprise, made a beautiful impromptu plea for the election of Ms Johnson on the grounds that it was time for a woman, and a minority member, to hold a convention post. This spontaneous gesture electrified the crowd. When the roll call was taken, it became obvious that Ms Johnson was a serious candidate. However, the EI Paso delegation, without its atlarge McGovernites, now had an "old politics" majority. The first poll of the delegation saw a Johnson near-majority. Then, Woodrow Bean, long considered a liberal, but a friend of Roy Orr, and, like Orr, the near-epitome of the old politics, began to apply his political muscle. In a classic example of power politics, several usuallyprogressive members of the establishment were persuaded to change their votes from Johnson to Orr. EI Paso was one of the few large counties in the State to give Orr a majority. Ms Johnson won and marched to the podium amid thunderous applause, with her hand and that of the blonde Wallaceite clasped together, raised in a power salute. Right behind them walked Sissy Farenthold, her face, until then sad, smiled broadly. It was our moment. Now it was "old politics" all the way. The EI Paso McGovern forces, seated and unseated, held a rump caucus but nothing really came of it. The delegation sent by Texas to Miami Beach was Wallace-domina ted. Driving back to EI Paso the next day, hot and very tired, we remembered San Antonio as a sobering experience. Nevertheless, the "new politics" had gotten further than had ever been the case in Texas. We had sent some McGovern delegates to Miami Beach. We had learned who our real allies and opponents were. And we had formed a force which promises to transform Texas politics in the not-too-distant future.

Many young people from EI Paso were among the 100,000 who flooded into Dallas June 12-16 to participate in a mammoth training-session-for-Christ conducted by the Campus Crusade for Christ. The meetings sought to inspire a spiritual awakening throughout the world by spreading the message of God's love for all mankind. Speakers at the five day meet included Florida Governor Rubin Askew, Dr. Bill Bright, founder of the movement and Dr. Billy Graham.

The Individual In Women~s Lib

The woman dedicated to the principles of the Women's Liberation Movement faces a long and lonely struggle to adjust her one life to two divergent cultural patterns. The primary objectives of the Movement are admirable. Your Women's Liberation devotee wishes to be her own person, neither dominant nor dominated. She has lived up to now in a society which considered her to be an inferior who was suited only for the chattel slavery that some marriages become. To achieve this goal, the Movement seeks equal pay for equal work, day care centers for the children of working mothers, abortions on demand, dual child responsibility and other social and political reforms. Such innovations are not easily obtained from a die-hard male power structure. The demons of prejudice and discrimination are hardy creatures and they die slow deaths. Women's Lib must make the same heroic efforts as other minority groups have made, must suffer the same

Gloria Steinem Women's Liberation Activist

humiliations, must bear the same hurtful scars before the final victory is won. Progress is being made. Many states have legalized one-parent adoptions. Some states are liberalizing archaic abortion laws to make each woman's body her own private concern. Women today are entering professions from which they were once barred. The individual woman, faced with the conflict between her ideals and the harsh realities of a male-dominated society, must walk a narrow line. She keeps trying, however, to carry her own weight and establish herself as an individual. This is a most difficult task. It would be so easy just to give in to this male superiority nonsense! Many of the more determined women on our campuses, in suburbs and in our cities do not surrender, but do their own thing as individual members of the human society, brave and alone in the dark night of a holy crusade.


I died today. I died today, the victim of one of Texas' drunken drivers. I left my family to go to work. A drunken driver, fresh from an all-night spree, careened out of a side street. There was a horrible crash of steel and glass and I was no more. I learned that I was not alone. I learned that there were many other victims such as I, tragic wastes of human life, killed in the bat of an eye by careless, inexpert, or drunken drivers on Texas streets and highways. In 1971 in Texas, there were 3594 traffic fatalities. 0 ese, 68 were in El Paso. Up to May of 1972 there were 1382 Texas traffic deaths, with 24 of these from El Paso. The result of these deaths in terms of human suffering on the part of the survivors cannot be measured. Fathers torn from families. Promising careers prematurely ended. Children, the hope of the future, killed before "they have really begun to live productive lives. As a traffic fatality it is beyond my capability to speak to each of my fellow drivers in person. Yet my spirit reaches out to you, to clasp your hand and to shout with everything that is in me, "Let us end this war on the highway! Even one fatality is one too many!"





Do we have

50


choice? Each minute of each day, the individual faces a crossroads of destiny in which choices of action must be made. These choices are made between drug addiction and no drug addiction, between alcoholism and sobriety, between suicide and life, between heroism and cowardice. These decisions will determine the kind of persons and the type Jf world we will have for ourselves and future generations. Because, you see, the choice between different courses in the individual's life is always present in the final split second of decision. We have it within ourselves to live or to die, to progress or to retrogress, to choose the affirmative or the negative side of life. Weare, after all, human eings, possessed of freedom of choice, and it is this that distinguishes us from the lower forms of life.

From the UTEP campus, across the Rio Grande, is the scarred face of poverty in Juarez. This is deprivation few can visualize, yet which we can see every day less than a mile away. Poverty is a very real thing in Juarez. It is cardboard shacks collapsing in the rain. It is buying food every day because you have no refrigeration. It is feeling each snowflake in a winter storm. It is struggling daily merely to survive. It is utter resignation, defeat, hopelessness. Some of these people from Juarez cross the border seeking a land of plenty. They make up our illegal alien problem. Yet they do not see this as a legal matter at all, they see only the necessity to survive. We look across this single mile of land and water and the scarred face of poverty in Juarez stares blankly back at us. That face is there for us to see every day as we attend classes, strive for success, work for greenbacks and educate our children in the American Way of Life. These people are a part of us, they are a part of the human race. Has a link been broken in the chain holding humanity together? Do the "wealthy" make up one end of the chain and the "poor" the other? Or are we all One, torn apart by the superficial standards of material wealth and meaningless goals? >

The tensions in the barrio between the police and the young people brought the police into that area in entirely different roles through a project called Jura, a division of the El Paso Urban Coalition. Policemen now serve as athletic coaches, project supervisors and personal advisors. Tensions and attitudes have been ' considerably reduced, for lines of meaningful communication have been established which never before existed. Meeting together on the athletic courts of churches or public schools, members of both groups have been "introduced" to each other in non-stressful situations and negative images have been modified to a marked degree. The future will record this past winter and spring as witnessing a major accomplishment in the field of inter-group relationships by El Paso's Project Jura.

What of Our Elderly Citizens? We live longer than ever, our average life expectancy is 70 to 74 years. Yet the quality of life has not improved appreciably for the elderly. Many of these people live lives of quiet desperation, barely managing to survive on meagre Social Security checks. Too often they are not appreciated by relatives or associates, being considered as troublesome burdens by younger people whose tastes, goals and life-styles are different. The elderly in our society are all too often relegated to the figurative rocking chair on the back porch, their vast experience and genuine expertise neglected, they themselves barely tolerated. Everybody loses through this cavalier attitude toward the elderly. We all lose the benefits which these people could contribute to society, and they lose the joy and satisfaction of being constructive. Some believe, like the late Dr. William Osler, that all persons should submit to a voluntary death when they reach the age of 60. Others grant the elderly the right to live, but would restrict them to retirement areas where they would not be too visible or too disturbing. Still others would like to jam the rolls of the Peace Corps, Vista and Head Start with the aged. The answer lies not in these suggestions, but in a concerted realization that the elderly in our midst are as much a part of us as the newest infants, and that they have earned the right to a satisfying and productive and dignified old age in the bosom of the society to which they have contributed so much.

The EI Paso area has 2 POWs and 210 MIAs. The POWs are Captain Howard Hill, USA, captured on December 16, 1967 and Lt.Commander Aubrey Nichols, shot down on May 1, 1972. To ensure the return of our men from prison camps, we should write to our Congressmen and Senators, to the Paris peace negotiators, to Hanoi. We should vote in every election for candidates who will work for peace. The VIVA bracelets are worn by people who are concerned about these men, not only by friends or relatives. They are worn as a constant reminder to the public that these are our men who are in constant jeopardy, and to urge citizens throughout the country to unite in every feasible action to bring them home safely and speedily.

So I'm sending it instead To the girl whom I love, Knowing he will understand. I know my brother wouldn't mind; He was always very generous in living And always very generous in giving, So I'm sure he wouldn't mind. I send this flower to you, Sending it to the girl I love, And you may think of it As coming from my brother On his birthday.

Tuition hit by Inflation As the nation goes, so also goes U.T. EI Paso. Inflation raised its ugly head on our campus this year and tuition rates were raised. The tuition increase served to decrease student enrollment in all categories. Part-time enrollment dropped from 3137 to 2767. Night school decreased from nearly 1100 during the past two years to 667 this fall. Non-resident enrollment also decreased. Reactions to the tuition increase were mixed. History instructor Alexander Burke recalled the time when tuition at Indiana University doubled in 1969. He felt that U.T. EI Paso students had been relatively lucky in the small percentage their tuition had been increased. Freshman William Taylor, political science major, said, "I don't like the way the administration treated part-time students. They

. ,

' '

,

.

have to pay fifty dollars plus the other fees." A sophomore student in general studies, said "I guess the raise in tuition was necessary. Myoid man pays, so I don't really care." William Johnson, a student from New York State, was unable to raise the money for tuition this semester. He hopes to secure the necessary funds next semester, "Lots of my friends had to stop attending school this semester because they could not come up with the money for the tuition and fees," he said. This is the toll that inflation takes. It is counted in terms little known but no less crucial; in students dropping out of colleges, in careers delayed, in aspirations lowered to meet economic realities. Tuition follows the trend, and we all suffer. • •

CHOOSE:

Kelly and Barry Halls, the two hi-rise dorms on campus, may well be architecturally appealing to the eye of the casual beholder, but they are something else again to those students who are forced by the 1955 parietal rule to live in them. To these students, the close confinement, the noise and the casualness of dormitory life is considered to be a definite infringement upon their rights of privacy, seriously damaging their study habits and altering their life styles. The students in these dorms refer to them as "fancy prison blocks" with rooms "that look like cells." Despite the stringency of the enforcement of the parietal rule regarding dorm living, the dorms can only be self-sustaining from an economic point of view if they are 90% occupied. Latest figures show that this figure is far from being reached. The only alternative to the 90% occupancy figure is an increase in the building use fee paid by all students. This move would be highly unpopular with both students and administration, according to Assistant Housing Director Gayle Coyle. 82 J

84 I


"The girls at the gate" arrived on campus in September of last year, taking over the work of men assigned to other duties. They are all students here, under the work-study program. The plan to have girls do this type of work was initiated at the University of Texas at Austin, probably under pressure from the Women's Liberation Movement, but certainly as an effort to provide equal opportunity for women in still another area. And watch it! Don't think for a minute that it is easier to get on campus now that the two main entrances are guarded by girls. It isn't!

A Parade Reminds Us ... Something lUte 8,000 people wtll march through the streets of downtown El Paso tomorrow, September 16. In Mexico, September 16 is celebrated 'as Independence Day, for it was the day on wblch, in 1810, the eall for Mexican independence first was sottnded-thoughactual independence cUd not come until 1821. Tomorrow's parade. however. is not a Mexican parade. It Is a Mexiean ..American parade. And there's I.. difference. To our mind it should be looked on not so much as a pa.. rade celebrating Mexican independenee as a parade indicating pride in the many acccmpnshmen ts of Mexican-Americans In the United States, as well as an awakening socl,d consciousness among the, Chi-

canos. The marchers

will be mostly on

the young side. for the young

Chi-

canos are an awakenini people, ad .. dresslnl themselves to' social tnlusttees, and anxious to express their views. Even though we sometimes disagree with their manner of ap .. 1>roach to certain problems, we applaud the Chicano effort to draw atten tion to their problems, and to

meet them head-on. For there ARE problems, and the role of youth, Chicano and otherwise, is sometimes to sUck a thumb In our eye to force us to recognize them. Recognize them we must, for these problems are community problems. and their solution depends on the entire community. There may be some placards carried In tomorrow's parade that will offend some people. There may be some shouting that will be equally offensive. But It ought to be remembered that this Is a sanctioned parade, approved by the' ci ty government. planned with the cooperation of many people, not all of them Chicanos. and policed not only by uniformed offlcers, but by leaders of the organization which w1l1 b. represen ted In the march. Responsibly handled and erreeUvely presented, the parade may well serve to remind us all of two things - that the Mexican-Amerlcan already haa made many, many contributions to the growth and leadership of this nation, and that the achievement of the socta; goals he seeks will enable him to make many more .

The wheels of change turn slowly on the social scene. . . This year, for the first time in El Paso history, school children were permitted by the Board of Education to participate in the annual 16th of September parade if they had permission from their parents. This was accomplished through the work of a special group from the El Paso Urban Coalition, headed by Manuel de la Rosa. The newspaper editorial in the El Paso Herald-Post on the subject was a notable break-through in the public attitude toward the Chicano community and the parade in general. The focus of this year's parade was an improvement in the quality of education dispensed to students in the barrio. Equality of education for all citizens was stressed as well as an awareness of the bi-cultural aspects of education in a border city. The wheels of change turn slowly on the social scene, and progress is a tortured giant barely "halfawake, but our city is on the move, painfully and reluctantly moving into the 20th Century ....

The exam promised to be a bummer. We had that straight from the prof's mouth. So what was a guy to do, especially a barely average workhorse of a guy at UTEP? Study. Coffee and study until 2 A.M., then the clarion alarm at 6 A.M. for more coffee and study, eyes feeling and looking like boiled eggs, head belonging to another guy who had a monumental hangover. Study. Text. Notebook. Scribbled 3 by 5 cards, some lost under desk, others smudged beyond recognition. Okay, go to class. The exam yells at you. Eyes roam the classroom, looking apprehensive, nervous, staring at shoes, glaring at pencils, feet shifting uneasily under chairs. Get it over with. Put the words on paper. Hope for a B but settle for a big beautiful average-guy C, the name of the game survival now. Here it comes. The exam handed back from row to row, the prof solemn up front as if he too were on trial, as if he could lose a bent cent if everyone fails his silly test! A cop is in the classroom, appearing from nowhere. What's up, some guy get caught with a joint? Bomb threat. Get outta here fast, but no panic. The guy on the phone said we have twenty minutes. But twenty minutes from when?

Another bomb scare at UTEP. Is it the 27th or the 29th this year? All phonies, but you never know when the next one will be the real thing with debris and mutilated bodies flying through the air ... So you drive your fears down into your subconscious and you do your job. Find the bomb or make sure that there is no bomb, that this is another silly hoax. How much time is left? Quien sabe? 100

V.D. Reaches

Epidemic Status

VD reached epidemic proportions in the fall. This led to the establishment of a free clinic for the treatment of the disease by Dr. J. B. Robbins in the Tillman Health Center. In addition, Dr. Robbins initiated' a comprehensive program of informative lectures for university students, lecturing in classes on campus. Treatment in the clinic is free. Parents are not contacted. Names need not be given. The matter is confidential between patient and physician. VD symptoms in the male are easily identifiable, making for speedy detection, diagnosis and treatment. The symptoms in the female may not show up for many years after the first contact with the disease has been made. By this time, the brain may be suffering permanent deterioration and a child may have been born with very serious physical or mental damage. This is the reason why it is so important that VD be treated as soon as possible after the first symptoms of the disease are noted by the male.

But dig it like this ... It's a mass movement. It's to show the empire that the people won't stand for it anymore. The people are getting it together to listen and rap and become aware. We're concerned about all the things that are dividing this country. For a start though, we've got to find what is dividing our own community. Why don't you listen? Go, people are going to be there. Things are going to happen. People from GI's for Peace, Skate, Friholy, Women's Lib, people ... We're registering people to vote. Do you realize the kind of power the 18 to 27-year-olds have if they would only vote. Then, we're going to hold a nonpartisan memorial service for the dead in Vietnam at 3:30 at the Ft. Bliss Cemetery. Perhaps by honoring the dead we can emphasize the tragic outcome of the war. Just think, if there was no war ... We all want peace, don't we?

Approximately 1500 students gathered between the two Union buildings to listen to speakers and various local musicians on October 13, Moratorium Day.

116


At 3:30 a motorcade of 30 cars and 100 people traveled slowly from the campus to the Ft. Bliss National Cemetery where they gathered around the locked gates and peacefully sang Jesus songs, chanted, and joined Rev. Jim Fenner in prayer for an end to the war in Vietnam and its death toll. They had originally obtained permission to hold a non-partisan memorial service within the cemetery walls; however, the day before the Moratorium Ft. Bliss authorities declared the permission removed on the grounds that cemeteries were not to be used for non-partisan groups, that students might deface the grounds and stones, and that among the crowd would be outside agitators with histories of inciting riots. On Moratorium Day the gates were locked 30 minutes prior to usual closing hours. Interested students did not allow a minor inconvenience to destroy their plans, so the group quietly sat outside and listened intently to Rev. Fenner and Bob Rothchild, a Vietnam veteran. The tranquil scene was surrounded by noisy static of police radios, chattering Army cameramen, and loud conversations between nearby officers. Finally policemen called for two wreckers and demanded that students remove their cars unless they wanted them towed away. The gathering dispersed as a crowd of helmet-clad military policemen watched from the west side of the cemetery grounds.

Contrary to the sign on the gate, the National Cemetery at Ft. Bliss was closed to memorial service participants.

Charity Bowl Initiated By TKE A NEW TRADITION was started by Tau Kappa Epsilon and Lambda Chi Alpha fraternities in 1971. The two fraternities, in a joint effort, sponsored the Charity Bowl football game and donated $375 to St. Margaret's Home for Children. Roger Jarvis, a V.T. El Paso graduate and TKE alumna, invented the idea as a means of helping the orphanage. Roger worked with Joe Campos of Lambda Chi Alpha in organizing the game. The Charity Bowl was played in full equipment to 750 spectators Dec. 11 at El Paso High School stadium. Referees from the Southwest Conference donated their time. When it was all over, the TKE's were victorious defeating Lambda Chi Alpha by a score of 7 to 2. The winning trophy and the Most Valuable Player awards to Gary Seeber, TKE, and Chris Reagan, Lambda Chi Alpha, were presented by Dean McCoy.

These vivacious cheerleaders "busting" with enthusiasm for Lambda Chi Alpha are members of the newly organized fraternity Phi Kappa Sigma.

"We felt we could help the orphanage and at the same time enjoy some football," said Dave Mormon, TKE president. "The game also offered Greeks the opportunity to show the community that apathy does not always prevail on the V.T. EI Paso campus," Dave added. "Getting hold of the equipment was probably our biggest problem," said Dave. "The U.T.E.P. varsity football gear was being inventoried and the El Paso Indepdendent School District refused to lend us their equipment," explained Dave. The fraternities were finally able to borrow the equipment from the athletic departments of Cathedral High School and Fabens High School. The winning trophy is a revolving trophy and the organization winning three Charity Bowls in a row keeps it. Since the TKE's won the 1971 Charity Bowl classic they will be the host team. The organization that bids to sell the largest amount of tickets will be the opposing team. "We don't want the Charity Bowl to become strictly a Greek event," said Dave. "We're hoping that next year every organization on campus makes a bid for a place in the Charity Bowl."

School Spirit Is Not An RISING INFLATION may force Mike the Burro, U.T. El Paso's mascot, to kiss Flying Miner football good-bye. Mike has been the responsibility of Chi Gamma Iota, veteran's fraternity, since 1968. "It costs the fraternity $20.19 a month to support Mike," said Paul Dunn, fraternity president. "This gets a little expensive in the course of the year, especially when Mike attends the home games only," Dunn added. Dr. Spencer Shannon of the geology department, and his wife take care of Mike at their Upper Valley ranch. "The Shannons have horses and Mike kind of thinks he's a horse himself," said Dunn. In 1968, the fraternity, with the aid of a local radio station, campaigned for a burro mascot for the university. Three burros were donated and two were later given away. After a contest in 1970, to name the burro, Mike became the official name of the mascot. Mike is quite the football fan, although he does have some trouble adjusting to the crowds and

booming cannons during the first few games. Chi Gamma Iota has asked several fraternities to help with Mike's expenses, but all have refused. The Student Senate would have to pass a bill before the Student Association would provide, or could provide any financial assistance for Mike. The athletic department was also unable to share Mike's expenses because as George McCarth, director of athletics, said: "We have too many expensesto take on the financial responsibility of Mike." If Chi Gamma Iota is unable to get some sort of assistance to support Mike, he will have to be sold and the fraternity will rent a burro for each home game at a cost of $10 per game, much less than $20.19 a month for 12 months. "We don't want to get rid of Mike because a mascot belongs on campus always," said Dunn. "But what are you going to do when no one on this campus cares?"

A dedicated Mike will do anything to boost school spirit at Miner games, He'll even hold a balloon to encourage fans in supporting the Miners.

"Ass-inine" Idea To Mike

Homecoming Is Supported By TKE~s If anything has felt the pinch of student apathy on the U.T. El Paso campus it has been Homecoming. There is no longer a Homecoming parade. Only the Ex-Students Association is keeping the breath alive in the annual event. There was, however, a great effort by Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity to revive Homecoming in 1971.

"For the Greek system, Homecoming is a gala weekend with an important football game and a time for reminiscing with all the old friends who have left the university," explained Dave Mormon, TKE president. "The problem with Homecoming is that it gets very little support from "The Prospector," said Dave. "This year there was no advance publicity on the bonfire, nor was there any encouragement for organizations to set up displays. This year the TKE fraternity walked away with Homecoming trophies for the best display and for bringing the most wood to the bonfire. Gloria Amaya, who was representing TKE, was voted Homecoming Queen. "We worked hard, but only because no one on 'The Prospector' staff bothered to write something about it," Dave said. "We were the only ones who knew about it." The award winning TKE display was a giant 10 foot orange and black Miner. Designed by TKE members Bobby Corillo and Jim Corral, the Miner was' assembled in the fraternity house courtyard and was carried to the university library lawn. A mine was set up next to the Miner.

A big event like Homecoming is about the only way to radiate school spirit in students. "This is a commuter university and most . students don'tlive on campus. Consequently, there are very few activities here that can give any great meaning to university life," Dave said. "Greeks like to compete. Independent groups don't like to see Greeks win," he said. "I think this alone will revive the 1972 spirit of Homecoming."

It took V.T. El Paso's football team 11 games to get its offense rolling, but by the time that happened it was too late and the Miners finished with a disappointing 5-6 record. Overall," said Miner coach, Bobby Dobbs, "I thought the season was a disappointment. We were expecting a lot more, but things just didn't go in our favor all year. "We thought that our offense was going to be pretty good, but we couldn't move the ball. "In the past we had been able to come up with the big yardage play. Each year we had been scoring touchdowns from 50, 60, 70 yards out, but this year our biggest gain from the air was only 38 yards. David Atkins had the longest run of 54 yards, but that was it. "Our quarterback, Gary Keithley, came into a new offense that he had a lot of ability to throw the ball. It just took him awhile to get started. "We lacked speed in our outside receivers."

Ed Puishes, who had collected pass totals of 50 in 1969 and 55 in 1970, finished the 1971 season with 26 receptions. Split end Mike Anderson was the Miners' top receiver with 33 catches. One of the keys to V.T. El Paso's offensive woes came when center Pat Thompson was injured. The injury forced Dobbs to shift personnel in the offensive line around. The shift proved disastrous as the opponents were able to sap through the line to nail runners and either sack quarterback Keithley or force him to hurry his passes. While things changed in the offensive line after bright early season predictions, the defense also did a turnabout from predictions. "We thought we were going to have problems with our defense:' Dobbs said. "But our new boys came around early and well.- except for a couple of ball games. I

128


"We played ArizonaState University probably better than anyone in the conference. Although our offense did not do well at all, ASU led us by only 10-7 entering the fourth quarter. Then the Sun Devils scored 14 points in the final period. "The Arizona State game took a lot out of the boys. We went downhill for a little bit and lost a couple of ballgames."

Stalwarts on defense for the Miners were junior linebacker, Tony Perea and senior lineman, Don Croft. U.T. El Paso's biggest weakness on defense was stopping an effective running game. Opponents ~etted an average of 224 yards a game against the MIllers. Injuries to several members of the linebacking crew took away the Miners' depth in that area and forced some shifting. Dobbs had to put Scott DeSha, normally a defensive end, at linebacker. For 1972 Dobbs is hoping to recruit well to fill voids in positions being open by graduation. ,,' "The name of the game in college football, said Dobbs, "is recruiting." He continued, "The team that does it the best will win. "We are losing three outstanding defensive players in Eric Washington, Bernard Chapman and Don Crof~. Other valuable defenders are Jaime Chavando, David Smith and Ken Koval.

"On offense we lost running backs, Phil Hatch, and James Berry, Mark McDonald, Jerome Kundisch, Ed Puishes, Bill Craigo, and Tom Altemus. "Returning for '72 on offense are Tom Kelly, Thomason, Don Dudley, Keithley, Anderson, David Atkins, Juan Borrego, and Paul Adamian. "Red shirts we feel that can make it are Ed Harriet, Randy Foster, Joe Stair, and Bob Anderson. "Returning defensively are DeSha, Ed Hochuli, AI Kimball, Perea, Pat Walker, and Brooks West. We also hope that Huey Patterson and John E. Johnson will make it after sitting out a year as red shirts." Dobbs will be keying for players at the defensive secondary, offensive line, running backs and receivers. The 1971 season was not a success, and as Dobbs said, they have "got to improve."

UT El Paso quarterback Gary Keithley gets good protection as he releases a pass. Keithley, who quit the University of Texas at Austin to join the Miners, is aided by the blocking of Don Dudley (65), Phil Hatch (32), Mark McDonald (62), Jerome Kundich (70) and Tom Kelly (72).

Coach Bobby Dobbs and other Miner football supporters were highly optimistic for the 1971 season after UT El Paso had finished so well in 1970. The 1970 team had averaged 26.3 pts. per game and nine of the 11 starters from last year returned. Leading returnees were Bill Craigo, who led the Western Conference in passing offense in 1970; Ed Puishes, who ranked among the top WAC receivers of all time and Phil Hatch, who ran for more yards in one season (785) than any Miner in over 20 years. Before 1971 even started there was some question on who would start at quarterback for UTEP. Dobbs felt he had three extremely good quarterbacks in Craigo, University of Texas transfer Gary Keithley, and Ray Brahm. It was Keithley who everyone was excited about. Keithley, who did all of the Miners' punting, is big and strong and had left Texas to join a passing-type team as the Miners were. Dobbs started Craigo in the opening game of the season against the University of Texas at Arlington and the senior signal caller led UTEP to a 7-0 first quarter

lead. Keithley played the second and third quarters. Keithley passed for two touchdowns and ran for one. Keithley left early in the fourth quarter with a 38-3 lead. Brahm played the fourth quarter and kept the ball down on the ground most of the period. The Miners won 38-9. Dobbs started Craigo, again against the University of Pacific in the Sun Bowl, but the native El Pasoan had a few problems and was relieved by Keithley in the second period. Keithley was once again able to move the ball club. He passed for one touchdown to Tom Altemus and then ran over for two scores on runs of two yards each. Keithley completed 15-27 passes for 155 yards. Keithley impressed Miner fans with his strong arm and his snappy pitch outs on option plays. The big factor in UTEP's 21-3 victory over Pacific was a school record of seven interceptions. Bernard Chapman (2), Eric Washington, Pat Walker, Al Kimball, Ed Hochuli and Benny Reed were the culprits of Tiger aerials. The decline and fall of the. Miners in 1971 started with the Arizona game. Although UTEP lost by only a

14-6 count, spectators saw what was going to hurt the Miners most of the remaining games - the lack of effective blocking from the offensive line. Keithley was dumped trying to pass six times. He had one punt blocked and threw three interceptions. The blocked punt resulted in one of Arizona's two touchdowns. Keithley, who played the whole game, completed 17 of 35 passes for 256 yards. The Miners were only able to score on field goals by Ray Brahm. VTEP's defensive unit again performed well as it allowed Arizona only 232 total yards. Defensive tackle Don Croft and linebacker Tony Pera led the defensive charge. The Miners entered the Arizona State game hoping to end a 14-game losing streak to the Sun Devils and came out hoping to end a 15 game mark in 1972. ASV's highly touted defense overpowered the Miners 24-7. Once again the offensive blocking fell down and ASV was able to chase Keithley all night long. The Miner quarterback was only able to get off nine passes, completing four for 58 yards. UTEP managed only 12 net yards rushing as the quarterback losses erased several plus Miner net yardage. Phil Hatch was the Miners' leading ground gainer with 24 yards on 10 carries and tallied the Miners only touchdown on a six yard run. ASU totaled 478 yards total offense, but the Fiesta Bowl-bound Sun Devils were not able to cinch a

victory until the fourth quarter with two touchdowns. Utah used a pair of fourth quarter TDs and a field goal to overwhelm UTEP 32-10 and spoil the Miners Homecoming. The Redskins, behind the running of Gene Belcyzk, outgained the Miners on the ground 235-50 and in the air 190-107. Keithley connected on 7-13 passes while senior Bill Craigo- was 0-9. UTEP's big rivalry with New Mexico State University saw the Miners unleash their strongest running attack of the season to edge the Aggies 14-7. Halfback James Berry led an assualt of 169 yards on 35 carries as the Miners gained 318 net rushing yards. Paul Adamian had 49 and Hatch added 42. Scoring for the Miners were Keithley, two yard run; Pat O'Neill, nine-yard pass from Keithley. U.T.-El Paso overcame fourth quarter jitters against Wyoming to notch their first and only Western Athletic Conference win of the season. The Cowboys scored their only touchdown with five minutes left in the game. Keithley tied a single game WAC passing mark for completion percentage by hitting eight of 10 attempts. The Miners scored III the first quarter on a 58-yard drive in 13 plays, capped off by a one-yard plunge by halfback David Atkins. Place kicker Brahm missed the first extra point attempt of the season after hitting on 12 straight tries. In the second quarter Scott DeSha killed a Wyoming drive on UTEP's nine yard line by recovering a Cowboy fumble. Fifteen plays later Berry raced 11 yards for the second and final touchdown. Berry led the rushing attack with 87 yards on 31 carries. Atkins added 68. Brigham Young University returned a favor handed to them in 1970 by blanking UTEP 16-0 with the help of a healthy running attack (300 total net yards) and four Miner miscues. Last year U.T. El Paso shut out BYU 17-0 in Provo. The Cougars scored within the first four minutes of the initial period and added nine more points in the third quarter on a field goal and an 86-yard interception return. U.T.-El Paso relied mostly on the passing arm of Keithley to generate the offense. Keithley connected on 19-39 passes, however he mounted only one real scoring threat in the game. The Miners moved to the Cougars' four-yard line before a fumble turned the ball over to BYU. A week off for rest with an open date failed to muster any big help for the Miners as host New Mexico ran UTEP out of Albuquerque with a total of 518 yards on the ground. The Lobos ran 90 rushing plays, a WAC record, arid only passed six times. UNM picked up three touchdowns in the second quarter and two in the third on the way to a 49-13 victory. New Mexico had three runners with over 100 yards in rushing for the afternoon. UTEP's only scores came on a one yard run by Atkins and a IS-yard pass from Keithley to former NCAA high hurdles champion Paul Gibson. Colorado State lost "The Battle for the WAC Basement" when they defeated TEP 24-7. UTEP managed to claim only one WAC victory in six outings for their worst finish in the conference. The victory, only CSU's second of the season, was well deserved as they had beautiful execution. CSU repeatedly attacked the middle of the Miners' defense with success. VTEP's only score came on a 36-yard run by Hatch.

Senior quarterback Bill Craigo saw action in the fourth stanza as a sub for Keithley and completed all four of his passes for 60 yards, but was not able to score. Coach Dobbs' Miners ripped off a big offensive duel with Long Beach State in the season's finale for both ball clubs which saw the Miners come out on top 38-32 in the Sun Bowl. James Berry scored on runs of six, 16, and one and Keithley punched into paydirt from one yard out and heaved a 27 yard TD strike to Mike Anderson. The Miners held a 31-16 lead at halftime but Long Beach outscored UTEP 16-7 in the second half and almost pulled out a victory. Keithley, who will return next year, piloted the Miners all the way and completed 16 of 23 passes for 146 yards.

Chuck Hughes Is Remembered At

u.t: El Paso

On October 24, in Chicago, Detroit Lions wide receiver Chuck Hughes started walking back to the huddle after running a pass pattern when he suddenly staggered, fell to the ground and hours later was pronounced dead. Hughes, 28, will be remembered at U.T.-El Paso for his fantastic patented diving catches he made consistently while playing for the Miners from 1964-66. As a Miner, Hughes was in on 12 individual school records for: single game - most passes caught (12), most yards on receptions (349); season - most passes caught (80), most yards on receptions (1519), most touchdown passes caught (12), and best percentage per kickoff return (26.2); Career - most passes caught (162), most yards on pass receptions (2882), most touchdown passes caught (19), most kickoff returns (36), most yards on kickoff returns (851) and best average on kickoff returns (20.8).

CCEI Teatro

"El Teatro Campesino," the satirical farm workers' theatre, was a sell-out again in 1971 as it made a return engagement in the University Lyceum Series. Resulting from the Delano, Calif. grapepickers strike in 1965, "El Teatro Campesino" worked with Cesar Chavez and the farm worker's union for two years performing in fields, labor camps, at union meetings, and strike benefits throughout the west and southwest. The company was founded by Luis Valdez, a graduate of San Jose State College and a former member of the San Francisco Mime Troupe. "EI Teatro Campesino" presented "actos" or sketches, and short plays portraying the grape strike, the union and problems of the farm worker in a humorous,

138


Campesino"

satirical manner. The slapstick dealt with the fact that human beings have been wasted away for generations. Use of comedy in performances originally stemmed from necessity of lifting morale of strikers. "We found we could make social points not in spite of the comedy, but through it," said Valdez. The highly acclaimed theatre has performed in civic auditoriums and university campuses, in New York, Washington, D. c., and at the Newport Folk Festival.

Dr. Joseph Smiley, El Paso President

Dr. Gary Brooks

Chicanos turned the "quiet school on the hill" into a turmoil-torn campus the first week in December when University President Joseph Smiley refused to accept or compromise on certain Chicano demands. Four demands were presented to President Smiley on Nov. 30 and the primary demand asked that Dr. Gary Brooks resign as vice-president for student affairs. "Dr. Brooks has followed a pattern of action of insensitivity, malice and discrimination that has resulted in the diminishing of the integrity and rights of students," stated M.E.Ch.A. and La Mesa Directiva. President Smiley agreed to meet with members of M.E.Ch.A. and La Mesa Directiva on Dec. 3 when he would answer their demands and the status of Dr. Brooks would be decided. President Smiley never showed up for the meeting. He was in Austin at a Board of Regents meeting and failed to inform the Chicanos.

140

Confusion marked the late morning hours of Dec. 3 when Chicanos, expecting to meet with President Smiley, were greeted by the locked doors of his office. Told that fresident Smiley's decision would be read at 10 a.m. in the Juarez room, the Chicanos rushed to the new meeting place only to find a handful of newsmen and Dr. Brooks reading the response. Dr. Brooks read President Smiley's answer at 10 a.m. sharp not waiting for Chicano representatives to get there. Infuriated by President Smiley's effort to misinform and mislead La Mesa Directiva and M.E.Ch.A., the Chicanos marched to the Administration building I where they blocked the front entrance. There the Chicanos shouted "Students si, Brooks no" in disapproval of President Smiley's decision to allow Dr. Brooks to continue as vice-president for student affairs. Chicanos were hopeful that Mrs. Lydia Aguirre would


EYE TO EYE

be appointed Assistant Dean of Students. The decision to appoint Dr. Brooks to his new position was a direct violation of the University tradition in Board of Regents rules in that faculty and other people directly involved were not consulted at all in the matter. This was another example of administrative density. "This can only serve to polarize the different constituencies that are entrusted with the education of the students and progress of the University," said Joe Medina, president of M.E.Ch.A. The Administration building was never "occupied" in the true sense of the word. A rear door was left opened and business inside continued as usual. Only the door to the cashier's office was closed by .the administration. The demonstration was totally non-violent and the Chicanos protested by shouting anti-Brooks slogan. Dr.

Brooks approached the demonstrators twice and asked them to leave but they remained in the building. Almost 3,000 spectators had gathered by 11:30 a.m. At 11:45 a.m. the police bus arrived, trailed by several marked and unmarked police cars. The police were instructed to use no violence in arresting the Chicanos except when necessary to protect themselves. At noon, 38 policemen began to march on the building; their guns and cans of maze were visible to the spectators. Chicano protestors had originally agreed to submit to police arrest immediately but they joined arms and refused to move. Bert Hernandez, chairman of La Mesa Directiva, announced over a bullhorn to spectators, "Please do not take out your personal frustrations with the police. This is a non-violent demonstration. We are committed to

141


non-violence." There was, however, violence as the police attempted to separate the Chicanos. Spectators tried to free the Chicanos from the police and all hell broke loose. Rocks were hurled at the police and several windows were broken on the police bus. It wasn't long before the police began to spray mace on the demonstrators as well as on spectators who got too close to the action. While the police were arresting the Chicano demonstrators, spectators- were tampering with the motor on the bus and it would not start. Chicanos were then transferred to police cars and some demonstrators escaped through windows. It was I :30 p.m. before the demonstrators were hurried to police headquarters and charged with disrupting student activities on campus.

142

Back on the U.T. EI Paso campus tow trucks were blocking University Avenue as the crippled police bus and police cars were taken away. A group of 250 students assembled in front of the Union and marched to Liberty Hall to meet with Mayor Bert Williams and protest police behavior during the incident. Some students felt the Chicano demonstration came a few years too late. Many of the "status quo" citizens of EI Paso considered the entire scene utterly ridiculous. But to those students who opposed the violation of students' rights; in this case that students be consulted, the demonstration was a call for student commitment. "Manana" means TODAY for Chicanos at U.T. EI Paso. We're committed to keep the struggle going until we win," said Joe Medina. U.T. Ei Paso, Welcome to the Twentieth Century.


Spectators dented car tops and encircled police and Chicanos for a ring side seat of the Chicano protest. Reluctant Chicanos resisted police while refusing to leave the Administration building. In most arrests, Chicanos were dragged to the waiting police bus.

143


FIST CLENCHED, a male student arrested in the protest against Dr. Gary Brooks, struggles as two policemen - one in plainclothes - try to get him into the waiting police bus. At his side, a coed protestor impedes their progress by hanging on to him. Students resisted arrest non-violently by sitting down and locking arms together. Violence flared when bystanders objected to the police's handling of the demonstrators and scuffled with officers.

144


Police mace closely packed students surrounding the bus and squad car. Many felt the burning pairi in their eyes and faces. A supporter gives the "power sign" to friends inside the Police bus while fear and outrage mounted.

145


\

The first press conference held by Mecha to unite the students behind a peti tion campaign was successful in obtaining almost 5000 signatures. After presenting their peti tion to Dr. Smiley, pickets block the street in front of the Administration Building as they form to protest. For a week thereafter a 24-hour vigil was maintained there.

Two sides of a coin. . . "The Dec. 3 situation was brought about by the narrow, closed minds of the Regents and Administration who refused to accept change. These people placed a steel wall in the way of progress for our people. The rapport which we had built with the Administration was eroded by the insincerity of Gary Brooks. The work of two years and the dream of replacing oppression with a university that would be relevant and meet the needs of the community it serves, was about to be totally lost. We had no recourse but to confront and tear down the wall with a total commitment to non-violence. The Dec. 3 situation was successful in creating a greater awareness among the students and community of the tyrannical rule imposed over the university by those who sought only to satisfy self-serving interests. It was only a beginning step in bridging the gap between campus and community and giving to the community that which belongs to it. Nuestra lucha seguira hasta que cada persona tenga el derecho de vivir con la dignidad de un ser humano. Triunfaremos."

"My basic reaction is that it was a very unfortunate incident, one that did not have to happen. I think the leaders of MECHA got into an untenable position ... they made four demands that President Smiley couldn't meet and said they would take action if the demands were not met . they couldn't back down. I think they hurt their movement temporarily, I say temporarily because I think the opportunity to work things out will arise. . . They turned off a lot of their supporters because of the drastic and unnecessary actions they took. It was basically a mistake in tactics on their part. It only served to increase existing tensions." Dr. Gary Brooks

The University Of Texas System This map shows the homes of the nine members of the University of Tex. System Board of Regents. It is indeed exasperating to approximately five million West Texas residents to note that not one member of this august body lives west of Wichita Falls, or less than 600 miles away from El Paso. Three of these members live within 100 miles of UT. Arlington, while three more live within 50 miles of U.T. Austin. Could this be the reason behind the expansion of these two campuses? Could this also be the reason why U.T. EI Paso has no doctoral program, no medical school, no law school? One would think that El Paso citizens do not pay state taxes, do not vote, do not send representatives to Austin. As the people of this far-out region see it, this is a prime example of modern day taxation without representation, for their taxes are going to build campuses in far flung areas of Texas with only a pitiful pittance coming back to U.T. El Paso. The people of West Texas, and particularly those of El Paso, feel a definite sense of geographical and spiritual alienation with regard to the Texas Board of Regents. These people believe their area should have representation on the Board to bring attention to their special problems as a border city far removed from the seat of power in Austin. The appointment of a student to the Board would bring a sense of relevance and relatedness which that body has never had before. These two moves would serve to bring El Paso and its University into contact with the State of Texas, with mutual benefit for all as the result. cc:

Who~sWho Among Students In American Universities Who's Who recipients are selected from the student body by a committee consisting of students and faculty. The factors which are studied by that committee are the student's participation in University life through organizations and committees, the student's academic record, and the student's leadership qualities. Those selected are students who can maintain both a high academic record and still find time

to devote to the daily task of making the University a place where people interact as human beings. Not shown are: Acosta, Teresa Baray, Henry Benitez, Patricia Ann Bhaduri, Sarmistha Combs, Robert O. Comerford, Barbara R. Correa, Madeline

School Of Business Seeks

The School of Business has submitted a proposal to the Texas Board of Regents for a Master of Business Administration Degree program. The new department will be headed by Dr. Albert A. Blum, formerly of Michigan State University. New Professors are Dr. Hector Zavaleta, teaching Business Law, Dr. Gary Popp, teaching Management Techniques, and Dr. Robert Foster, teaching Marketing. The Department of Economics and Finance has formed an Academic Affairs Committee of three faculty members and two students in order to improve communications between faculty and students. This committee will plan curriculum procedure in undergraduate courses and decide upon the acquisition of new books. This is an innovation in school administration policy for it involves the student members of the committee in the actual decision-making process in matters concerning the entire school. A further step in the democratization process within the Department of Economics and Finance is the formation of the Student Advisory Committee, composed of four undergraduate students and one graduate student, elected by the students of that department. During the year the Advisory Committee made an in-depth study of the basic course in "Principles of Economics" in order to improve the relevance of the subject matter for today's students. The Committee also made pertinent suggestions as to the type of faculty members whom the School of Business should employ in the future.

School Of Engineering The following new fields of study were initiated during the year: Student Research on Environmental Quality Dr. H. G. Applegate, Director. Water Problems of Indians - Dr. C. E. Woods and Dr. H. G. Applegate, with museum Staff. Public Service Engineering Studies - Dr. P. C. Hassler, Director. The School of Engineering initiated the following new programs during this year: Video Tape Instruction - Dr. Frank E. Rizzo, in use in freshman, junior and some senior courses. This system is used in other colleges and in the School of Education here. "Each student should spend at least IO half-hour sessions each semester in video tape instruction." There are just too many students in each class for each one to benefit to the fullest extent. The video tape method of instruction enables the student to listen to a given portion of any lecture he did not at first understand. Freshman Design - Dr. John M. Levosky teaches fundamentals of Engineering Mechanics and computer programming. Students work in small groups on specific design projects. Upper Right:

Challenging Courses Offered In Liberal Arts The School of Liberal Arts will offer a new program of Soviet and Eastern European Studies in 19721973, and approval of other new programs is anticipated. Available as optional pathways to a B.A. degree for history and political science majors, the new program provides a concentration of courses in Russian language and literature, history and political science. Dr. Z. Anthony Kruczewski is faculty advisor. The Faculty Council has approved a major in Chicano Studies which will be another new RA. degree program as soon as official approval is received. This interdisciplinary major will include 24 semester hours of core courses plus 18 hours of electives from any one of five options. The proposed Chicano Studies major will provide knowledge of the history, culture and heritage of the Chicano and is designed to prepare students for careers in community programs and teaching. Faculty Advisor is Dr. Philip D. Ortego. Criminal Justice Administration is a third new route to a Liberal Arts degree. Four pilot courses have already been taught at UT El Paso, with the approval of the Faculty Council. The proposed major will include 21 semester hours of lower division work in Criminal Justice and 18 advanced hours in this major. Dr. Joseph R Graves is Faculty Advisor.

The Department of Philosophy has presented a proposed M.A. degree program to the Graduate Dean. If the new major passes muster with the Graduate Assembly and is approved by the Regents and the Coordinating Board, it will focus primarily on the preparation of philosophy teachers for junior colleges. The program features a bilingual option with a strong InterAmerican concentration. The degree would also be a step up the academic ladder to the Ph.D. in philosophy. Faculty Advisor is Dr. John Haddox. Above Left: Dr. Wade Hartwick, Assistant Dean of Liberal Arts, reviews a student transcript.

English Department Offers Special Course Dr. Tony J. Stafford - Head of English Department "English for Foreign Students" is a special course which is designed to prepare students from foreign nations to meet the challenges of English and other courses in this university. The course is taught through the use of linguistics rather than through the usual method of grammar-usage. The teaching of linguistics is now conducted in a separate department, although the English Department supports the new program with faculty.

The Inter-American Institute, founded over a decade ago to further exchanges of people, ideas and the arts between neighboring Latin America and our bicultural university, had another active and productive year. In the fall semester of 1971, Dr. Chester Christian, Director of the LA.I., on his return from a summer of teaching at the prestigious Caro y Cuervo Institute in Colombia, lectured at the Universities of Arizona, U .T. Austin, Chihuahua, Monterrey, and ably represented U.T. El Paso as a member of the Board of Directors both of the Border State Universities Consortium and the group of El Paso and Ciudad Juarez citizens planning the Chamizal Institute. Among the distinguished Latin Americans who visited our campus under the sponsorship of the LA.L were Joaquin Guimaraes and Castro Arias (Brazil); engineer Homero Torres Caballero (Mexico); Licenciado Carlos J. Sierra (Mexico), who donated a valuable collection of books to our library; and a score of others. This spring, the Institute has sponsored numerous cultural programs, such as the performance of Latin American music and poetry presented by our campus Asociacion de Arte y Cultura in February, and the poetry recital by the distinguished MexicanAmerican poet, Rafael Jesus Gonzales, in April. The LA.L maintains close collaboration with the University of Chihuahua through the Bicultural University Alliance, a four-school international consortium, on whose board of directors we are represented by Dr. J. M. Sharp, Associate Director of the LA.I. The success of the Institute's programs is furthered by the dedicated work of Mr. Ruperto Santana, Office Manager and Mrs. Maria Montes, attractive and able Secretary.

Radio-TV Department John Siqueiros has taken over as the new chairman after a successful career in mass communications. In the past year, under combined faculty guidance, degree requirements and courses have been updated and expanded. The full time faculty has been increased to two. The Department is especially proud of the achievements of its FM station, KTEP, during the past year. In the fall of 1971, KTEP became affiliated with NPR, the nation's only non-commercial radio network. Through KTEP's alliance with NPR, El Pasoans have the opportunity to hear radio programs that are offered by no other El Paso radio station programs such as the Senate Crime Hearings, the U.N. debates on the admission of The People's Republic of China, t e hearings of the Senate Foreign Relations Commi tee, etc. KTEP was in New York City to cover the Miner's bid for the NIT Basketball Championship this past spring, and provided exclusive coverage of the miner's track meets. The Department recognizes and capitalizes upon the idea that RATV students must augment the theories learned with the realities experienced through actual participation in a broadcast station environment.

Journalism Cinematography, a new course offered in the spring of 1972, offered students an opportunity to work with motion picture equipment, including Bolex and Bell and Howell cameras in producing creative and documentary films. This course was taught by Mr. Luis Perez. Luis Perez also taught the course in Magazine Production. The students in this course produced four issues of Tangent Magazine. Mr. Perez left the department in the summer of 1972 to become the Publicity Director for Thomason General Hospital.

Students Desire Change In Curriculum A questionnaire was circulated in the spring of 1972 to obtain student comment on courses offered by the department. 1264 students responded, emphasizing common desires, such as having courses oriented toward practical speaking ability in foreign languages, less grammar and more insight into cultures and civilization. Two new faculty members will join the staff of the Department of Modern Languages in the fall of 1972. They are Professor Nicholas Isotov, a native of the Soviet Union who is completing his doctorate at the University of Oregon, and Professor Sandra Bayer, who is finishing her doctoral work at the University of Kansas. Professor Isotov will teach Russian, while Professor Bayer will join the French staff.

Dr. John Haddox Head of Philosophy Dept.

Philosophy Department Expands Special courses that were offered this year included "Latin American Philosophy," and "Social Philosophy." This Department has specialized in the area of sponsoring joint interdepartmental courses with members of the faculty of the Department of Modern Languages. The projected plans for the future include a Master of Arts degree program in Philosophy.

Dr. Judy P. Goggin Head of Psychology

Psychology Dr. Guido Barrientos has opened an office in the Coronado Towers for the treatment of behavioral problems in small children. Quite a few of the students in the Psychology Department have cooperated with Dr. Barrietos in this very worthwhile and much needed project. Dr. Edmund Colman has instituted a program among preschool youngsters to teach them to read at an earlier age than would usually be the case. The program has had considerable newspaper support, and was the subject of a television publicity campaign, "I can Read Day," in which mothers of pre-school children were instructed as to how to utilize Dr. Colman's techniques in teaching their own off-spring to read. 200


Political Science Majors Are Activated Dr. Edward Leonard is the chairman of the fastest growing department on the campus. Today Political Science is number 4 in total enrolled students. Within a couple of years the department has high hopes of moving into second place. Several members of the faculty have received grants to conduct research studies in the areas of political involvement, thus providing students with employment and experience. These studies have been made with regard to "Political Socialization in Northern Mexico," "Minority Groups in the Southwest," and "Small Group Simulation in International Politics." The faculty has continued in its active participation in the El Paso political scene in both the Democratic and Republican parties. Five faculty members were delegates to the County Conventions in May. Because of the importance of the 18 year old vote, many political figures in the area became interested in the Department, with quite a few local politicos coming to discuss the issues with many classes. During the fall, a presidential symposium is in the planning stage, with leading political figures scheduled to participate.

Criminal Justice, Linguistics And Speech Path. Offered At U. T. El Paso Joseph B. Graves Criminal Justice

Dr. Ray Past Linguistics

202

Dr. Joseph B. Graves has submitted a proposal for a degree program in Criminal Justice Administration to Dean Ray Small. An important feature of this program is that a federal grant of $27,720. has been obtained for the first and second years of its operation. The result of this is that no state monies need to be appropriated until the third year, by which time the program should be well established. Five courses in Criminal Justice have already been given so far this year, three during spring session and two during the summer. A total of 150 students are at present participating in the program. The present year marks the first year as an independent department for Linguistics. The department administers a Master's degree program in Applied Linguistics. There are nine advanced courses so far scheduled for the fall term. With 75 majors in the new area of Speech Pathology taking courses in Languagement Development, Organic Speech disorders and Advanced Audiology, the students have two options after obtaining their degrees. They may be certified under the Texas Education Agency to teach and work in public schools in the area of speech problems, or they may remain uncertified but continue in professional work outside the province of the public school systems of the state. There is also a Master's program in operation in the fields of speech pathology and audiology. This program operates a clinic for the evaluation and treatment of persons with various speech and hearing impairments. Dr. Harold Williams is the Director.

Sociology

Dr. Winfred G. Steglich Head of Sociology Dept.

Special courses that will be given in the Department of Sociology will include Social Problems, the Sociology of Religion, Marriage and the Family, Minority Group Studies and Industrial Sociology. Newer courses are Criminology, and Juvenile Delinquency. The following new additions to the teaching staff were announced by Dr. Winfred G. Steglich, chairman of the Department: Professors Irving Brown, Sarah Watley, and Nathan Zirl. The following faculty members left the staff during the past year: Robert Brischetto, Eddie Palmer, Santiago Rodriguez and retiree Mrs. Frances McDonald. The Department offers minors in Anthropology and Geography.

203


Science Students will have the opportunity to enlarge their scientific perspective through the use of modern equipment recently purchased. The Physics Department is purchasing a programmable computer for use by all students, freshmen through graduate, in the department. Also in the immediate future is the purchase of two new pieces of equipment, a mass spectrometer and a x-ray defractometer, for student use. Dr. Keith Pannell will teach the basic Chemistry course for Liberal Arts students, with important new modifications. The new course will be concerned with the impact of science on society in general. In the Chemistry Department, the major change will be a new chairman, Dr. William B. Herndon, an outstanding organic chemist from Texas Tech.

Charlie Brakes leads a cheer with Trainer Ross Moore, Asst. Coach Ed Sparling, Coach Don Haskins, Scott English, James Forbes, Gus Bailey, and Beto Bautista for the substitutes finishing out another Miner victory.

NCAA on the way? Back in 1965 University of Texas at El Paso coach Don Haskins took his 18-8 basketball team to New York to compete in the National Invitational Tournament. The Miners lost in the first round. One year later Haskins brought his quintet through a 28-1 record which included straight victories before losing to Seattle in the last regular season contest and then culminating at College Park, Md. with the National Collegiate Athletic Association basketball crown by beating Kentucky in the finals. Haskins brought his cagers through a 20-6 regular season record this year and was invited to the NIT tourney. U.T. El Paso, which finished the season ranked 17th in the nation by the United Press International Poll of coaches, was favored to advance to the finals in this oldest of all post-season hoop tournaments. And the Miners drew what was termed an "easy" opponent in Niagara. But has destiny stepped in again? Haskins' hoopsters played their worst game of the year. In a display of sloppy ball-handling, totally unlike a typical Haskins' poised and accurate team, the Miners turned the ball over to Niagara 29 times. Known for its stingy defense, V.T. El Paso, which allowed its 26 regular season opponents only an average of 60 points per game, the Miners watched Niagara score 76. UTEP pumped through only 57 and came straight home afterwards. Although Niagara, the dark horse of the tournament, went all the way to the finals against Maryland and lost 100-69, it was not much consolation for U.T. El Paso and Haskins.

"Super soph" James Forbes goes for another two points.

UTEP has an excellent chance of following the same pattern that led to the NCAA in 1966. Haskins worked with a mostly young ball club. Seniors Scott English (16.9 points per game and 7.2 rebounds) and Charlie Brakes (12.6 points per game) held the squad together while Haskins and assistant coach Ed Sparling worked on developing sophomores Jim Forbes (12.3 points per game 11.0 rpg.), Gus Bailey (9.0 ppg.) and Beto Bautista (5.1ppg.). Junior college transfers Steve Hegens (6.9 ppg.) and Willie McBride (3.2) saw frequent action and are expected to be mainstays in '72-'73. After opening the new season with three straight victories UTEP met its first Waterloo in Lafayette, La., losing to national powerhouse Long Beach State, which was rated among the top ten. Six more victories brought the Miners into January and against big rival New Mexico State University. UTEP had not beaten the Aggies since '67. Hitting a torrid 55.4 percent from the floor, U.T. El Paso stretched out ahead of NMSU all but a short time when the Aggies enjoyed a 19-18 lead. But English, 19 points; Brakes 16, and Forbes 14, pushed the Miners into a Strong Offensive showing and went on to outscore NMSU 16-3 the rest of the first half. UTEP came out on top 75-59 and showed that it could play good defense against a strong offensive team. The victory boosted the Miners into Western Athletic Conference play. Haskins' crew used superior quickness and shooting ability to overpower Wyoming 67-59 with English hitting for 17, Bailey 12, Forbes II and Hegens 10. A last second shot by Colorado State University's Travis Lackey provided the Rams with a 63-62 victory over the Miners at Fort Collins. Following the Colorado State Contest the United Press International Board of Coaches picked the Miners as the number 19 team in the country. But the rating hung around U.T. El Paso's neck like an Albatross. Like in the poem of the "Ancient Mariner", it was to be unlucky.

227


The Miners traveled up the road to Albuquerque to meet the University of New Mexico, which had not experienced a successful season at this point in the schedule and, in fact, the Lobo coach, Bob King, had changed his squad's line-up for U.T. EI Paso. New Mexico won the game going away 68-44 with Brakes hitting for 12 points as the Miner high-point man. U.T. El Paso rebounded from that disaster to again overpower New Mexico State, but by a closer margin this time 65-63. Arizona dropped a 68-50 decision to U .T. EI Paso next and Arizona State came out on the losing side of a 70-49 score and the Miners upped their Western Athletic Conference record to 3-2. Because of these three victories, UTEP was again honored with an albatross when it found itself with a 15-3 record and in the 18th spot of the UPI poll.

"You!" An evil official casts a disappointed grimace at Miner, Charlie Brakes. Above, Jethro Hills (52) gets more than just a ball as he meets up with another court opponent.

Haskins' cagers promptly crumpled at the hands of Utah 76-61 and had the not too exciting task of facing powerful Brigham Young University in the Cougars' 23,000 seat gymnasium. Using the touch that has netted him over 200 victories in 12 years at U.T. El Paso, Haskins plotted a battle plan of control against the Cougars. Both teams played on even terms in the second half and after 40 minutes of regulation time the score was tied 39-39. Sophomore Bautista had an opportunity to provide the Miners with the deciding points in the first overtime period. Bautista stepped up to the free throw line with 11 seconds left and the score knotted at 46all. Bautista missed the one-and-one free pitch and a second overtime period was needed. Brigham Young canned six free throws in a row to start the second overtime and went on to claim a 5753 victory. Forbes' 13 points headed four Miners in the double figures with Bailey having 11, Brakes 10, and English 10. UTEP came back to win three straight Western Athletic Conference contests: 77-70 over Colorado State, led by English with 20; 73-51 over Wyoming, as English hit for 19 and 67-42 over New Mexico, paced by Forbes' 19. The Miners had their conference hopes dampened as Arizona State squeaked by U.T, El Paso 77-74 in double overtime. Forbes had 20 points and 13 rebounds in a losing effort. Arizona suffered a 63-48 setback to U.T. El Paso's record of never having been defeated at home in a WAC basketball game. The Miners had won 19 straight games at home in conference play. Leading 43-31 at halftime, the Cougars seemed like surefire winners. But the second half was a completely different story. The Miners outhustled and outshot BYU from every angle and did a complete turnabout, winning 73-69. Brakes, Forbes and English contributed 18, 16 and 14 points respectively. Utah closed out U.T. El Paso's regular season schedule by losing 80-60. Brakes had 17 points. It was but a week later that UPI ranked the Miners 17th in the final poll. It was unfortunate that the poll came out before the Miners started NIT play. Or was it???

Elton John, appearing here in concert at the Sun Bowl, more than justified his excellent reputation as a rock music personality as he electrified the large audience. He was one of the year's most honored performers, with awards that included two from Playboy Magazine, first place in the piano category and a place in the All-Star band.

235


Van Cliburn, internationally famed pianist, gave a concert on February 5, 1972 in Memorial Gymnasium. This young man is a legend in his own lifetime, playing for over a quarter of a million fans each year at 60 concerts. Van Cliburn has always been known for his extraordinary technical facility but his present concert tour gives ample evidence that he has come of age. His program in Memorial Gym was long and taxing revealing many facets of pianistic and interpretative demands, all being met with the aplomb of an established virtuoso on the ivory keys of the Steinway.

236


One of this country's leading folk music artists, John Denver came to V.T. El Paso's Memorial Gym in the spring term and left with the high praise of a most enthusiastic audience roaring in his ears. John Denver, one of the younger musical stars on the horizon is justly famous for his deceptively intimate vocal rendition of folk numbers, giving to well-established songs an inflection and a mood that is his alone.

Foreign Students The talent show and handicraft exhibit of the International Students Association this year was a great success, with over 1000 interested EI Pasoans in attendance. This year the annual International Dinner was held, with students from foreign lands preparing delicious foods representing their favorite native tastes. There were dishes from China, Mexico, Germany, India and the Near East, and these were enthusiastically received with gustatory approval. In 1967, the International Students Association was organized to give focus and a voice to the over 600 students from 45 countries and five continents while they are attending V.T. EI Paso. The Association thus acts as a bridge of cultural understanding between these foreign students, the college and the EI Paso community.

David Harris, anti-war activist previously released from La Tuna after serving a term for draft-refusal, spoke with passion and unfailing logic to a large crowd of all ages and political persuasions on the UT El Paso campus in mid-April. Harris spoke out in vigorous terms in opposition to the continued military presence of U.S. armed forces in Northeast Asia, the bombing of noncombatants and the destruction of natural resources in the countries of that area. In closing his talk, Harris made a strong plea for prison reform, citing the utter wastage of the human spirit that often accompanies a prison sentence, particularly among inmates from minority group backgrounds.

WAIT'LL NEXT YEARI It was the year that wasn't for the U.T. El Paso Baseball team. The youthful (over half were sophomores and freshmen) diamondmen were not able to get things going after winning three of their first four games of the 1972 season. Texas Tech and West Texas State combined to hand the Miners losses in eight of the following nine contests. U.T. El Paso entered the Western Athletic Conference Southern Division race with an 11-20 record and proceeded to go on an 18 game losing streak (two of the losses were to New Mexico State University) before winning its first WAC game, a 3-2 decision over the University of New Mexico. The Miners finished last in the division with a 1-17 mark. Ineptness in the field was the main Miner dilemma as the fielders committed 96 errors on the season, permitting 99 unearned runs to cross the plate. Junior Barry Alburtis was the team's leading batter with 9 home runs, 33 runs batted in and a .335 batting average. He was selected as an Honorable Mention on the All-WAC baseball team.

Do you have it?

More than 80% of the 10,000 enrolled students at V.T. EI Paso failed to vote in this year's Student Association election. This is a sad commentary upon the state of political awareness on this campus. The campus is the microcosm of our society at large. The student officers have a given amount of control over the events occurring on campus and a given amount of control over the $26 fee collected from each student. Organizations in need of financial assistance for their programs may go to the Student Association for that help. Individuals in need of student support can depend on the officers whom they have elected. When a student does not participate in the election of his officers he is losing out on an important part of university life. The disease is APATHY!

What happens when you are only No 3? Wayne Vandenburg brought, shaped and produced the potentially best track team in the school's history, overall, in 1972. He had experience in defending National Collegiate Athletic Assn. outdoor lOO-yard dash champion Harrington (J.J.) Jackson, the top collegiate shot putter in Fred DeBernardi, senior intermediate hurdler Ron Rondeau, senior halfmiler Greg Jones and senior half-miler Kerry Ellison. There were some outstanding freshmen in hammer thrower Peter Farmer, triple jumper Trevor Hall, shot putter Hans Hoglund and speedsters Harold and Steve Williams.

The tracksters blossomed early and, backed by DeBernardi's NCAA shot put tying effort and a 1-2-3 finish in the 60-yard dash, the Miners won their second straight Western Athletic Conference Indoor Track and Field title. U.T. El Paso edged Brigham Young University 136-130 for the title. New Mexico was third with 88 points, Arizona fourth at 39, Utah 37, Colorado State 28V2, Arizona State 27, and Wyoming lOV2. DeBernardi heaved the shot 67-10 on first throw to tie Neil Steinhauer's NCAA Indoor Track record. Errol Stewart, who tied the WAC record in the with a first, was followed in the event by Jackson (6.1) and Harold Williams (6.1). Other winners for the Miners in the meet were Bill Curnow, pole vault at 16-1114;Rod Hill, mile run in 4: 12.3 and U.T. El Paso's mile relay team in 3: 16.9.

Despite a disappointing seventh place finish in the NCAA Indoor Championships, there were some bright spots. Freshman Farmer finished fifth in the 35-pound weight throw with a toss of 61-5. Steve Williams (6.2) and Errol Stewart (6.3) were barely nosed out in the semifinals, Hoglund finished third in the shot put at 63-43,4 while DeBernardi was a disappointing second at 639Y2. D.T. El Paso picked up momentum after the indoor championships and moved on to establish 10 school records. Steve Williams broke the records in the 220 and 440-yard dashes. He raced to a 20.3 standard in the 220 and a blazing 45.2 in the 440. Kerry Ellison broke the mile mark at 4:02.1. Ellison actually broke the four minute barrier in a relay race, but it doesn't count in the books. Trevor Hall notched a triple jump mark at 52-3Y2, DeBernardi in the shot at 68-7% to beat the world record-holder Randy Matson in the El Paso invitational and Peter Farmer in the hammer throw at 221-11.

U.T. El Paso's speedsters highlighted the WAC Outdoor Track and Field championships that saw the Miners win the title by a whopping 69 points. Never before in the history of the WAC had one school won the indoor and outdoor championships in the same year, but the Miners erased that statement as they accumulated 177 points. Brigham Young notched 108 for second place and was followed by Arizona State and New Mexico. Harold Williams stole the show as he won the lOO-yard dash, 220-yard dash and was a member of the winning mile and 440-yard relay teams. DeBernardi won the shot with a heave of 65-10 for a meet record. Hopes were extremely high for the Miners as they ventured to Eugene, Ore. for the NCAA outdoor championships. But hopes for a title were nipped in the bud at the outset as Steve Williams, who suffered a hamstring pull in the WAC meet, reinjured it before the NCAA started. The Miners, behind DeBernardi, put on a gallant effort. DeBernardi became the first athlete since John Carlos in 1968 to win two NCAA events as he took honors in the shot put (66-6Y2) and the discus (196-5). Bill Curnow finished third in the pole vault at 17-0 and Rondeau was fifth in the 400 meter hurdles. UCLA swept to the team title with 82 points, Southern California was second at 49 and UT El Paso had 45 for third. 262

Honored at Graduation After 41 years of teaching at U.T. El Paso, a spate of excellent books on the El Paso Southwest scene in the past and the present, and after gathering unto himself virtually every academic and literary honor that a grateful citizenry had to offer, Dr. C. L. Sonnichsen retired from the English Department of this University at the end of the spring 1972 term. Educated at the University of Minnesota and Harvard University, Dr. Sonnichsen joined the English Department of the Texas College of Mines (now UT El Paso) in 1931, becoming chairman of the Department in 1933 and serving in that post until 19 O. He was appointed E. Y. Benedict Professor of English in 1957 and retired in that position. A big, hearty and shambling Minnesotan, Dr. Sonnichsen found his niche in the literary world at a comparatively early age. This niche was the Old West in non-fiction, and Dr. Sonnichsen mined the era for 15 books over 30 years of research and writing. His most famous book was "Pass of the North," with map and chapter initials by Jose Cisceros, a book that deals with the founding of El Paso, published in 1968 by Texas Western Press. Dr. Sonnichsen, long a campus figure of vast importance to UT El Paso and this entire area, will be sorely missed and impossible to replace.

1971-72 STUDENT ASSOCIATION The Student Association for 1971-72 had a very productive year. They formed a scholarship committee, an executive staff and completed a detailed study of the Health Service, besides recommending that the "S.A." card be made optional with each student. On the economic front, the Student Association allocated funds to several engineering societies, a physics group, service fraternities and sororities, the bowling team, the cheerleaders, in addition to Mecha and the Student Legal Association. Connection, the campus hotline, also received an initial funding grant.

Alpha Phi Alpha

Not since the NCAA Basketball Championship in 1966 has V.T. EI Paso been such a conversation piece in the Nation's Black Community. This past year V.T. El Paso was the home of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity's most "Outstanding Chapter" and also the most "Outstanding Alpha", President Donald L. Williams. Zeta Kappa Chapter was responsible for bringing the first "Miss Black V.T.E.P." to the campus. They sponsored a dance to raise money to "Free Angela Davis." The brothers were very active in the unified Black drive to combat sickle cell anemia. The Alphas were involved in community church programs and the NAACP. They elected the first black as Student Association President at V.T. El Paso. The Alphas at VTEP are truly "Outstanding." Right on Brothers, Right on!

Parties? - Did anyone say parties? Phi Kappa Tau, the first established fraternity on the UTEP Campus, has acquired a reputation for its parties! Hell's Angels parties, western parties, swim parties, etc., have added excitement to the lives of the men of Phi Kappa Tau. This fraternity led the way during Rush Week, pledging the largest number of men. Officers for 1972 are: Mike Hale, President, Phil Darwin, Vice President, Robert Dean, Treasurer, Jeff Ewalt, Recording Secretary, Bob Semands, Corresponding Secretary, J. J. Wilkinson, Chaplain, Richard Saab, Sergeantat-Arms, Joe Mascarenas, Social Chairman, Mike Dudley, Rush Chairman. The Little Sisters of the Laurel, the pretty faces around the lodge, put on many luncheons for the brothers of the fraternity and worked diligently for the Chapter. The sweetheart for 1971 was Ann McFadden, while the sweetheart for 1972 is Kima Marsh.

Circle K International Circle K International is a community and campus service club with its international objectives being: clean water, halfway house, student aid fund, women's service, drug education, and tutor subsidy. It merits the title international due to the fact that Circle K Clubs are found in Canada, Mexico and the United States. Projects undertaken by the club this year were: emergency loans to students, cleaning the windows of the Engine No. I's housing unit. The club was fully involved in directing students (dropouts) to the U.T.E.P. Program called HEP. An information booth is set up by Circle K at registration each semester to help direct students for a quicker, less painful registration. The Southwest District which encompasses Circle K Clubs from Arizona, New Mexico, and West Texas, held its annual convention here in EI Paso's Plaza Hotel.
