Sale Of Beer In The Snack Bar Was Hashed With Changes

Miss Longwood , Sally Chewning Crowned Queen Of Tobacco Festival

By BETH RAFFERTY Sally Chewning, Miss Longwood, was crowned National Tobacco Queen at the festival on October 3, received a two thousand dollar scholarship as one of her prizes.

Sally competed against twentytwo other girls in the contest which ran from October 2 to the 6.

The contest was held in Richmond, and the girls stayed in the Hotel John Marshall during the festival.

The pageant consisted of the contestants being judged on their talent, and a three-minute talk.

"They were the only things we competed in really," stated Sally.

For the demonstration of their talent, "I did my karate," said Sally. She added that, "I did the same thing as in the Miss Ixmgwood Pageant." The only difference was that this time she broke three boards instead of one. Sally enthusiastically added that, "I got my green belt tonight."

Sally stated that for her three-

minute talk, "I took the marriage ceremonial vows and took a comparison of renewing my vows to the country, since the bicentennial is coming up."

The contestants were also interviewed by the Judges for two nights. Sally said that they knew everything about her, and when she walked in for the interview, the first question they asked was, "Tell us something we don't know about you." Poise and personality was also an important part of how the contestants scored. "We were judged at all times, and we never knew who the judges were," added Sally.

There were two sets of chaperones who stayed with the girls in the hotel, and Sally stated that, "I'm pretty sure we were judged by them on how we get along with the rest of the girls."

Most of the contestants were from Virginia, but one was from West Virginia, one was from North Carolina, and two were from South Carolina. "We all had VMI seniors as escorts, and these boys were just the greatest," said Sally. She added that, "I think

thanks should be given to them."

Among her duties as National Tobacco Queen, Sally will attend the major convention which is held in West Virginia in June, and a Jaycees Convention, bank openings, and parades.

Sally described her feelings at the Ball which was given for her by saying that, "It was like being Cinderella." The ball was held at the Richmond Hyatt House, and Sally was driven up to the door in a convertible. She added that, "It just felt like I was walking on a cloud." She stated that, "It was really a nice ball."

Her parents are "just really excited," stated Sally and she added that her father is "really proud of me." She also received a silver reviere bowl, and a gift certificate.

When asked if she intended to compete in any more contests, Sally responded by saying that, "This is the tops for me. I just can't go any higher." Lewis Little, Sally's boyfriend who attents U of R, stated when Sally won, "Pull out the Foster Grants, we're celebraties."

Curriculm Expansion At LC A Step In The Right Direction

Everything You Always Wanted To

Know About The Dining Hall

By WENDY PORTER

Students are required to dress in acceptable attire for Sunday lunch, special dinners, and birthday dinners. Acceptable attire is dresses, pant suits, and coordinated slacks and blouses.

Because so many students are refusing to dress in acceptable attire for the birthday dinners, there is a possibility that this dinner will be dropped from I-ongwood's tradition.

When a student decides she wants milk or water to drink with her meal, she is allowed to go and get the milk herself There are hostesses standing in front of the Longwood seal in the Dining Hall to pour the milk. This way the student gets her milk or water quicker and the waitress can spend her time getting the food for the tables. When asking for seconds on food, the students should gather all the dishes that they want seconds of and give them to the waitress. A waitress should not have to spend the whole meal running back and forth to the kitchen. Waitressing is not another name for a relay race.

Recently there have been many letters written to the editor concerning the Dining Hall, the waitresses, and rude students.

Last semester, there were numerous opinions Because of this the Chairman of expressed in THE ROTUNDA concerning the need the Dining Hall Committee, Ann for curriculum expansion at Longwood. Since that Steger, suggested a weekly time, there have been a number of steps taken in column be written in THE ROTUNDA for the students that direction which force even the gloomiest pessimist to start being a little more optimistic con- containing information about the cerning the future of this school and the nature of Dining Hall, its regulations, and its waitresses.

As soon as the students are through with the food, they should stack their dishes and place them where the waitress can easily reach them. The food dishes should be passed to the waitress also, so that she does not have to reach over the heads of the students to get them. The glasses should be placed together and all the trash put into one bundle.

Don't forget that the waitresses are students, too. The only difference is that the waitress has to work her way through college. Waitresses have classes and meetings to go to, also. When you want to sit and talk with your friends, find someplace else besides the Dining Hall tables. By sitting at the tables you are hindering a waitress from cleaning up the table and possibly causing her to miss a meeting. Waitresses cannot leave a table unless it is completely clean or else get time taken off their time card. By being courteous to your waitress you will find it easier to enjoy your meal and receive seconds.

here, someone else would be. And futhermore, when you walk out of these doors you almost never existed here except for a name in a filing cabinet.

It all comes down to one primary question: Why are you here? To become princess in a fairy land or to become a responsible adult capable of accepting a role in society? The latter is the essential purpose of I/)ngwood and it's varied activities.

As to the reference that CHI or Geist stand for achievers of power, this is a false assumption.

What exactly is power? Does involvement in class and social activities entitle you to "power?"

Somehow, somewhere along the line, something has gone to someone's head.

The article also inferred that if you want Blue and White spirit that you had to get involved.

However, this is not the starting point. All of us must begin with a little self-examination. It hurts a little to realize and admit things we try to cover up. The second step is in the disbanding of groups that interfer or prohibit the existence of individuals. And this, I might add, can only be done by the people within the groups.

Values and ideals must constantly be examined and changed when necessary.

Sincerely, Mariette Zucchi

Streaking Fight At Paint Battle Dear Editor: At the recent paint battle, a victory for the reds, a distinguished Longwood Lady displayed her anatomy in "a streak". Disgusting? Maybe, but the spotlight was stolen by an even lower act. Hampden-Sydney boys, standing on the sidelines had the nerve to throw paint at Juniors and Seniors, who had no paint and were merely observing the battle. Dirty, you say? Hold on, the worst is yet to come. In (Continued on Page 8)

'Hie students, faculty and staff of logwood College arc cordially invited to meet Miles and Huth Horton, who have generously made a selection of works from the Horton Collection available for exhibit at Longwood on Tuesday. October 22, 1974, from 4-5:50 p.m.. in Bedford Gallery.

Lyn and Jim Yeatts, artists from Roanoke, Virginia, and friends of the Mortons have stated . .

The Hortons' collection is "head and heart." It is ;i group of works which mirrors the private taste of two verj unique people. A predilection for expressionism is evident.

Strong color, bright pattern repeats, colors that sun; are shown. One senses immediately that all were selected

for

personal

pleasure. A kind of purity about collecting without thought of building a collection is evident. And indeed Miles' stated philosophy is that one can never own a painting, but he may have the pleasure of its custodianship for a brief period.

Miles and Kuth formerly had careers in the sciences.

Ruth's career included all phases of nursing, including the teaching of medical and surgical nursing. Miles' career in library science included the position of librarian at the University of North Carolina and Virginia Polytechnic Institute. His penchant for research continues in his current study of microscopic fauna and flora, especially proto/.oa.

CROP Walks for the Hungry are not new to Virginians, but every effort is being made to organize a Walk in Virginia communities that have not yet become involved.

The CROP Walk in the Farmville area has been scheduled for Saturday, October 19, and involves at least 100 people from Farmville and the surrounding area.

The theme for this year's CROP Walk for the Hungry is "To Feed a Million." Residents of Virginia have been challenged to raise $500,000. 'It won't be hard," says Celia Maxwell, one of the organizers of the local walks.

•You can get as many people to sponsor you as you can find. The object is to get several sponsors.

Hooker Presents Paper Explains Theme Of Film

Dr. C. S. Hooker, member of English Department at Longwood

By JANET COLEMAN On Tuesday, October 8, and Thursday, October 10, at 4:15 in Bedford Auditorium, Dr. C.S. Hooker presented her paper entitled, "Jean Vigo's A PROPOS DE NICE: Documentary Film and Cinematic Poem."

The film, A PROPOS DE NICE, was also shown each day, before and after Dr. Hooker's presentation. Fifty to seventy students and faculty attended.

As Dr. Hooker pointed out in her paper, A PROPOS DE NICE is both a social documentary, which deals with the French city of Nice in 1929, and a cinematic poem with its recurrent themes, images, and symbols. It is a representation of the daily life, special festivities, and environment of Nice, as well as a "unique blend of realism and surrealism."

In A PROPOS DE NICE, Dr. Hooker explained, Jean Vigo

transformed his love and hatred of the city into a work of art.

Dr. Hooker elaborated on the dominant visual images in the film: the roulette wheel, skirts, poles, water, statues and puppets. She said that Jean Vigo converted images into visual poetry and viewed Nice through a poet's eye.

Jean Vigo felt that Nice was a city that thrived on gambling; and everything in the city was dedicated to death. Dr. Hooker explained that the themes of gambling and death are evident in A PROPOS DE NICE. At the conclusion of Dr.

Longwood to score a total of seven goals to Mary Washington's zero. Cheryl Sams was high scorer with three goals, Linda Crovatt with two, and Michele Nealon and Theresa Matthews each with one.

Other publishers have joined the battle.

According to studies on sexrole stereotyping in textbooks, plenty of editing is in order.

Though 51 per cent of the US population is female, the studies discovered men far outnumbering women in texts at all grade levels. Women who were represented were shown as servile, fearful, passive and dependent.

In a study of 554 elementary readers, researcher Diane Graebner found a ration of three boys to every two girls. She determined that 75 per cent of all stories were about boys and that boys made up 67.5 per cent of all illustrations. She found that girls were depicted as shallow and "mothers"invariablywore skirts — even while camping or hiking down the Grand Canyon.

When the Women on Words and Images (WWI) went through 134 readers from 14 publishers, they found boys outnumbering girls five to two as lead characters in stories. Their study uncovered six biographies of males to every one biography of a female. In mathematics books, WWI found boys solving astronomy and chemistry problems and learning to buy stocks while girls measured curtains and bought flour.

An investigation of social studies texts by Richard O'Donnell revealed 83 per cent of the occupations described belonged to males and only 17 per cent to females. The occupations for females included waitresses, housewives, secretaries and other service or home-oriented jobs. Seventy-two males had prestigious jobs while only one female was shown in a similar role. O'Donnell never found a male doing dishes, cleaning or handling childcare duties.

Perhaps the most exhaustive research on high school civictexts was published in the book "You won't Do": What Textbooks on US Government Teach High School Girls. Dr. Jennifer Macleod, research psychologist and Sandra Silver (wo) man, feminist consultant, dissected eight leading civics texts and found little mention of women in the US political process.

They discovered that illustrations vastly underrepresented woemn. Whereas 51 to 73 per cent of the pictures showed only men, a scant 3 to 9 per cent showed only women.

They saw only two pictures of women in nontraditional roles —

Senator Margaret Chase Smith holding a bouquet of roses and Rep. Patsy Mink throwing snowballs.

The researchers noted that all political leaders were drawn as male stick figues in charts. In one book's introductory unit, "Understanding Democracy," a six-sketch montage show: a man running for office; a man reading about a male candidate; three men discussing politics; a man watching a three-man TV debate; a man cheering a male candidate and a man voting.

Macleod and Silver (wo) man found the reading matter no less stereotyping. They uncovered statements like: "the ideal presidential candidate is an energetic member of the male sex...Some day perhaps, a Negro, a Jew, even a woman, may have some prospect of being the party (presidential (nominee."

While researchers, psychologists and educators comb textbooks for further evidence of sex-role stereotyping, federal and state governments have taken some steps to eliminate the school book sexism.

Two bills which mav have some effect have already been passed

by Congress and another is pending.

One of these bills, Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972, says that no person on the basis of sex shall "be subjected to discrimination under any educational program" receiving federal funds. Whether or not this covers the subject of textbooks has been a matter of debate.

The New York Times noted that Title IX failed "to cover discriminatory curriculum materials, such as textbooks that contain sex bias." The Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW) added that any attempt to ban the use of such materials "would raise grave constitutional questions under the First Amendment."

But according to Wilma Scott Heide, past president of the National Organization for Women (NOW), "selection of sexist texts by state action (via the public school boards) is a denial of individual First Amendment rights of freedom of speech by excluding, derogating, and or stereotyping women.

Dr. Anne Scott, NOW legislative Vice President has observed that, as is, there is nothing in Title IX "that makes a school system accountable to its required statement of non-

Bicycle Violations Present Problems For Police

By JANE BLOODWORTH Campus and Farmville police are concerned about the increasing number of bike riders disobeying traffic regulations this year.

Farmville Police Chief Otto S. Overton said that the major problems they encounter with I-ongwood students is "riding on a sidewalk and locking two bikes together on a meter post, so that they are blocking the sidewalk.'

Chief Overton added that another problems is that students sometimes park their bikes so as

to block a doorway.

"The problem is not any worse with college students than it has been in past years," said Overton. "And I don't think girls realize the problems they're causing, because they always yield when it's brought to their attention."

of Campus Police.

This includes obeyance of all traffic signals, yielding right-ofway to pedestrians, signaling intentions to turn, and riding on the right side of the roadway. It is unlawful to ride a bicycle on the sidewalk.

In additon to these state regulations, Farmville has an additional regulation which states that no person shall ride his bicycle on any street in Farmville without having his hands on the handlebars.

Every bicycle in use between sunset and sunrise must be equipped with a lamp on the front which has a white light visible in clear weather at least 500 feet to the front and a red reflector on

However, the growing trend for bicycles I there are over 500 bicycles on the Longwood campus, as well as the Farmville residents who also ride) creates a hazard when regulations are disobeyed.

"When you're riding a bicycle, the commentary entitled you have to obey the same traffic "Working Hard -All For laws that you would when you're Recognition?" This article was driving" said Chief Smith, chief not written as an attack on any individual student or group of students, but as a stating of opinion backed up by fact. In reply to Debbie Harris, I would like to say that I do know the students who live on second floor Wheeler and I believe they are all basically pretty nice kids, but just because they are all good kids does not mean their actions won't affect the rest of the campus adversely. I also know the meaning of Blue and White and I am involved with class activities. This article in question was not written as an outsider's viewpoint.

In response to the letter from Mrs. Matthews, I am not an "unknown complainer." I did not try to deny or hide the fact that I had written the article. Whether There are over 500 bikes on campus my name was on the article or not does not change the facts or its meaning, and I am not afraid of other student's reactions to me because of the article. I am not ashamed to have it known that I wrote it, and I will not retract anything that I wrote. The meaning runs true, only the interpretations differ.

Sincerely, Wendy Porter

According to Chief Overton, bicycles may be parked on the sidewalk as long as they are not blocking anything.

Regulations concerning riding bicycles on campus are the same as for those on city or county roadways within the state.

The campus police prefer that all bicycles on campus be registered with them, and that students take advantage of the bicycles decals which are dispensed free of charge.

One of the reasons is that bicycle theft is also increasing.

"A bicycle thief is almost impossible to catch," said Chief Smith. "In ten seconds, someone could cut the wire off a bicycle, load it in a car, and be gone." The Longwood decal is some protection against this, particularly if anyone but a girl of college age is spotted riding a bicycle with the decal on it.

"Girls often take bicycles up here, ride them for two weeks, and then never look at them again until time to take them home," said Smith. "A bicycle could be stolen for months before the girl realized that it was gone."

"I would like to see students take their bikes home for cold weather, if they're not going to ride them, and then bring them back in the spring," Smith added.

The good neighbor needs a little something from you.

"A & P"

A little something called blood.

Sad to say, a mere three percent of all the people contribute one hundred percent of all the blood that's freely donated in America.

And that's not all. This freely donated blood is ten times less likely to cause hepatitis in the recipient than is blood from commercial sources.

So the blood you give to the American Red Cross—America's Good Neighbor-not only may save a life. In today's serious blood situation, it also just might prevent a death. Or serious illness.

Giving blood is easy, takes only a few minutes. Ask any donor.
