There is an opening for a graduate student to Legislative and Judicial Boards.

It is important that we do not forget that it is our duty as a citizen and as a student to vote whenever possible.

After all it is your country and your student government as well as theirs. So, show your interest in your fellow students and your student government and vote. You should at least get involved once a year in your school's progress.

Conserve Energy

By MELODY CRAWLEY According to a bulletin released by the Department of Energy, there may not be enough fuel to adequately heat homes, schools and businesses during the coming year unless the Nation acts to respond to the threat. The President of the United States has ordered the immediate imposition of the Standby Emergency Building Temperature Restrictions Plan.

Because of this, Ixmgwood College needs to have a College Community Awareness according to Vice President William Peele. Both students and employees need to become aware of Energy Conservation.

Most of the ways to conserve

energy are "Common Sense" according to Dr. Peele. "We are open to suggestions from students," he stated. Many colleges have competitions to conserve energy.

Dr. Peele also stated "Ixmgwood would never consider a four day week for regular sessions." He said that it was not out of the question for summer school.

Suggestions for students to follow to conserve energy include: 1. Keep exit doors closed when heating is required.

2. Keep windows closed when heating is required.

3. Burn lights only when (Continued on Page 5)

THE ROTUNDA

A Job Well Done:

SALT II Conference At Hampden-Sydney ByDOUGSTROBEL For three days last week Hampden-Sydney College played host to a conference on the Strategic Arms Limitations Treaty. The college must be commended on the job it did in the organization and implementation of the conference The quality of speakers and delegates was of the first order.

Thursday began with a registration period where students gathered from as far away as Idaho and as close to home as Ix>ngwood. A cocktail party followed the registration and then the delegates were off to an elaborate banquet dinner and a keynote address. McGeorge Bundv, whose credits include

former national security advisor to both Presidents Kennedy and Johnson as well as Dean of Harvard faculty and Chairman of the Ford Foundation, began by spelling out the different views of SALT which ranged from the liberal 'McGovern Special", which propounded cuts in our strategic forces no matter what, to the conservative "Goldwater Standard" of flat rejection of the treaty as now written. Bundv went on to voice his support of the treaty while telling the delegates that they must weigh the arguments very carefully of this monumental issue and decide for themselves whether ratification of the treaty is in the U.S.'s best interest.

Friday morning began with a lecture by Professor Pipes, who is currently the head of Russian studies at Harvard University.

Pipes began by stating that the United States has analyzed why they want SALT, however, has the U.S. attempted to understand why the Soviets want SALT. It must be remembered that the Soviets have "purposes in mind" continued Pipes. The Russians have used SALT to inhibit the development of such U.S. hopefuls as the cruise missile and the MX mobile missile system.

One day the Soviets may believe that they can fight and win a nuclear war, a premise which is doubted by many U.S. analysts.

Pipes believes that the SALT II treaty enhances this possibility.

Miss Longwood First Runner-up

By SHARON JANOVICH Our very own 1979 Miss Longwood College, Juliana Worsham recently represented l,ongwood in the Tobacco Bowl and was chosen to be the first runner-up. Julie also won Miss Photogenic, which she was ver) excited about.

"I was so very, very shocked that I got first runner-up! Having m> hand shaken and beinn kissed

by Lyle Waggoner was the ULTIMATE! He is so gorgeous!

He looked like a football player!"

The participants in the Tobacco Bowl were required to be present at a luncheon, a President's reception, have two interviews, be prepared for talent night and the most exciting part of the Festival: All participants rode in the parade.

"The parade was by far the most exciting part! It rained during the game, but we were thankful that it didn't rain during the parade. I was so calm, cool

restraint of any kind.

The afternoon seminar session was on the topic of "Verification—the Technical and Political Dimensions." The essential theme was how verifiable must a treaty be to be considered acceptable. The Russian possibility of building stockpiles has been argued as being non-verifiable. However, the U.S. does not have many means of verification including satelites, listening bases around the world, spy planes, and human agents.

The late afternoon lecture was presented by Lt. General Edward Rowny, of U.S. Army retired.

Rowny had been the Joint Chiefsof-Staff's representative on the SALT negotiating team until last year when he felt that he could no longer support the treaty in good faith. Rowny said that the basic problem in SALT was that the negotiations were done in Washington and not at the bargaining table. He stated that for every single confession made by the Russians the U.S. made two. Rowny does not see the treaty as making any qualitative limits only quantitative limits which are very "cosmetic".

The evening came to a close with a cocktail party followed by a banquet dinner.

Following dinner, Professor Edward Luttwak spoke. He delighted the audience with his Continued on Page 7)

Dr. McHugh Lectures On Economy

Players Poster Contest

By LINDA WHEELER The I/ongwood Players and the Department of Speech and Dramatic Arts has long been noted for their enthusiasm for the students on campus to become involved in each of their productions. The upcoming production of The Good Woman of Setzuan is no exception.

Patton lock wood, the director of the play, is eager for the students to become even more involved in this production. Dr. liOckwood has announced that there will be a contest for the design to be used on the posters and the programs for the play.

Students enrolled at I-on g wood may enter. The drawing must be

and collected that I couldn't believe it! The judges also mentioned how poised I was!

This was so much more fun than the Miss Virginia Pageant, because there wasn't as much competition and backstabbing.

You could relax and really have a great time! I enjoyed it so much and was so excited to see two other Longwood girls there: Miss Victoria-Kathy Fallen and Miss Kenbridge — Emily Sue Wilkinson. It was terrific!"

Congratulations Julie Worsham, for a job well done!

Such provisions as the Russian backfire bomber's non-inclusion in the treaty and the exclusion of heavy missies in the U.S. side has led Pipes to believe that this is an unbalanced treaty in favor of the Soviets.

The delegates then broke up into smaller seminar groups which they had earlier been assigned to. The topic for the discussions was to be "The Major Objectives of U.S. Foreign and Defense Policy." The first thing to be defined was U.S. interests around the world which were the preservation of our economic well being as well as maintaining the status quo and preventing war. Other questions emerged such as what has been the U.S. foreign policy since WW II and has it worked or not.

The afternoon speaker was George Ashworth who gave the administrations view of SALT. He said that this has been an agreement negotiated over three administrations which was in the U.S.'s security interests. The treaty sets limits which will restrain the Russia buildup and hopefully, in the long run, lead to actual reductions unilaterally.

Ashworth stated that the U.S. has never sought to build heavy missiles and therefore it was irrevelant that we did not have the right to build them. He also speculated that the world without SALT would be one of increased hostility and an ever increasing arms race with little hope of

By NORMA TALIAFERKO Dr. Helen F. McHugh gave the first of the Francis Simkins lectures, October 3rd 7:30 p,.m. in Bedford auditorium entitled "Economy And Family: Challenge of the 80's".

There are two more of the lectures scheduled in April. The lecture was in memory of the late Dr. Francis Simkins, a history professor of Longwood College until his death in 1966, and dedicated to his wife Mrs. Margaret Simkins, who was introduced and recognized by Dean Wells and Mrs. Anna S. Thompson.

The speaker Dr. McHugh was introduced by head of the Home Economics Dept., Mrs. Anna Thompson. Dr. McHugh received BS and MS at University of Missouri and her Ph.D. at Iowa State University. Recently, Dr. McHugh has received citation of merit from University of Missouri Alumni Association.

"There is a great need for each individual to control inflation, use resources wisely in order to bring prices down to control," says Dr. McHugh in her lecture. Dr. McHugh enlightened everyone as she told them what they could do as individuals to live in a well efficient economy that would be suitable for all. She explained how the changing of the labor force and the number of women heading the household is affecting the family of today.

However in the process of her discussion the audience seemed to have lost their individuality trying to set up or imagine what exactly were their chances of living efficiently without wasting resources in our economy.

In the lecture, the speaker

stressed that people were the valuable resources and their consumption of natural resources was what made the difference of their status in the economy.

"The family group of individuals living together", was the main subject and the predicate was the way in which the units makes decisions in the household, said Dr. McHugh middleway her speech. She later went on to discuss the major changing elements in the family, the single family, and the declining value of raising children.

It was explained that housing has a big effect on our environments just as where we live has on us. Lots of values were discussed and explained and how they play on our emotions. The three E's were the big interest to the listeners. Which are energy, envoronment and economics.

It was mentioned that the change in number of women on labor force and the number of

women heading the household insures the stability in the home and the economic outlook. In most of her lecture Dr. McHugh dwells on a reference book entitled The Energy Future; published by Random House. The book included; the project of 1972, studies and interviews, analysis, quotes by specialists in the field and issues one the declining "Baby Boom".

In concluding the lecture the speaker talked about the gasoline shortages increasing. The difference in the earnings gap because of more women heading the home. The insight for family around 1980 are smaller, mobile with more social and economic pressures. "There is a great need to control inflation, use resources wisely and bring prices under control," says Dr. McHugh ending her lecture.

Following the lecture a reception was given by the Home Economics Department at the Longwood Alumni House.

Student Fees The 1979-80 Student Activity Fees Committee is: Duke Rollins — Chairman Mindy Allman Bill Brent Linda Paschall Cheryl Wilcox Robin Young Dr. Sandra Breil Mrs. Betty Kidder The committee meetings are tentatively scheduled for the first and third Tuesdays of each month at 4 o'clock in the Honor Council Room.

THE ROTUNDA

Connecticut Dance Theatre To Perform

The Connecticut Dance Theatre will perform at Ix)ngwood College on October 29, 1979, at 8 p.m. as part of the company's seventeen state forty city 1979-80 tour. The Hartford based company is dedicating this season's tour to Doris Humphrey,

one of America's greatest choreographers and pioneers in modern dance. Connecticut Dance Theatre's program will feature several Humphrey masterpieces: Ritmo Jundo, Night Spell, Day on Earth and Two Ecstatic Themes. Expertly

choreographed, Ms. Humphrey's works are powerful, sensous, moving and mysterious.

Considered an American art treasure, the Humphrey choreographic legacy is unsurpassed in American contemporary dance.

Also featured on the Connecticut Dance Theatre's program are the world premieres of "Celebration" and "Easing the Squeeze," two new works by CDT's artistic director, Mary Giannone. Celebration is an abstract contemporary ballet set to the glorious Brandenburg Concerto No. 2, by J.S. Bach. The work is a celebration of the pure joy of movement.

Easing the Squeeze is a contemporary work set to a jazzy score inspired by the elegant yet easy swing quality of jazz dance.

The program will also include "The Second of Seven Crossings" choreographed by company members Judi Tolomea and Linda Burns Phillips.

Connecticut Dance Theatre features a cast of dancers from Germany, England, Bermuda and the United States. Ms. Giannone, a Julliard graduate and former assistant to the late Jose limon, has developed a company style that fuses the Humphrey-Limon technique with ballet and jazz. It is this unique

blend that enables CDT to offer an evening of Contemporary dance that so successfully traces the roots of modern dance and highlights the paths of today's new choreographers.

Connecticut Dance Theatre was founded in 1975 by Mary Giannone, a choreographer and Akiva Talmi, a composer. The two met in New York City while attending the Julliard School where Ms. Giannone was a teaching assistant to the late Jose Limon and Talmi a Richard Rodgers scholarship student.

The two Julliard graduates founded Connecticut Dance Theatre at the Hartford Conservatory. Hartford has supported modern dance since the early 1940's and the Hartford Conservatory was the first institution of higher learning to start a modern dance department.

Since its inception, CDT has worked in the modern dance tradition of Doris Humphrey and Jose Limon. The introduction of Humphrey works to the repertory in 1977 marked the crystalization

of the company's movement style, philosophy and direction Connecticut Dance Theatre made its New York debut in October, 1978 at St. Clement Theatre. The debut coincided with the 50th year anniversary celebration of Dons Humphrey as a creative force in modern dance. To mark this anniversary, CDT launched the Doris Humphrey Reconstruction Project. To date the company has reconstructed from dance notation four Humphrey works and plans are underway to rerecord several of the musical compositions used in repertory and a redesigning of sets and costumes where appropriate.

Ray Cook, reknowned dance director and notater is associate director of the Doris Humphrey Reconstruction Project.

In 1978 CDT toured Connecticut and the North East rekindling the Humphrey heritage. In its 1979-80 season the company is expanding its tour to include the Southeast and will be performing in forty cities and seventeen states.

Band Features Southern Speciality

By FRANK CREASY Whoever it was that said, "The South shall rise again," must have heard the Plum Hollow Band. After last Saturday night's performance, one would never believe that the Yanks would have a chance against the crowd that stumbled breathlessly out of the lower dining hall.

Country and Southern rock bands have, in the past, done well at Longwood. But the reason for that, is attributable to the quality of the performers which the Student Union has garnered on previous occasions. The Plum Hollow Band was no exception.

As the beer and good times flowed throughout the audience,

the music stirred a spark of excitement which erupted into a food ole-fashioned hoedown towards the end of the evening.

The usual practice of sitting and listening gave way to handclapping and heel-kicking, and the infectious enthusiasm swept away many a student, including this reporter.

The War Between the States often pitted brother versus brother, but Plum Hollow decided it would be better if brothers teamed together.

Barney Barnwill's lively fiddle was complemented by Larry and Nelson Baucom on banjo and bass and J.C. and Ricky Matlock on guitar and drums,

respectively. Led by Barnwell's vocals. Plum Hollow's good time, hoespun style of play hit home to the Longwood crowd, and they responded accordingly. From the familiar strains of "Dixie" to the country boogie tune of "Orange Blossom Special," audience participation rose to a fever pitch before the band was allowed to leave. Finally, even LB. Dent could contain himself no longer, as he expertly executed a freewheeling square dance with one band member.

Of course, this is not the first time a Longwood audience has been brought to its feet during a Saturday Night Alive performance, and it will not be the last. But any band which accomplishes this feat has earned its paycheck, and Plum Hollow will probably become a favorite at Longwood. At least, Saturday night's audience looked happy to be in the Land of Cotton (and in all probability, old times here will not soon be forgotten).

Michael Johnson performs for a light house before break.

Johnson Featured

By BILL LeWARNE Michael Johnson and Barry Drake performed in Jarman on October 3 for Longwood's second major concert of the semester.

Drake, a favorite here, as indicated by the constancy with which he returns, presented his usual dynamic stage presence as romped through his lively ballads and country-folk tunes. A truly energetic guitarist and singer, Drake keeps his listener's attention easily with his rowdy never-slow-down attitude as he plays.

Michael Johnson, a now

seasoned recording artist has a more casual, mellow rapport with the audience. His music is more of the love song variety, with a few ballad-folk tunes of his own. His two top hits, "Bluer than Blue", and "This Night Won't Last Forever" drew good response, and he succeeded in making them as enjoyable as they are on the radio, even though he was playing without a backup band.

The audience seemed to enjo> two such contrasting styles of music in one concert, and both performers provided an evening of excellent entertainment.

■Editor's Turn-

■CommentaryBy MARK M. SLOAN Without a doubt, Longwood College has some of the most eccentric vending machines I have ever encountered. The vending machine, as we all know, was invented for the sole purpose of serving their creators: Man. But more and more, they seem to be metamorphosing into Man's adversaries.

How many of us have stood in front of the chronically out-oforder munchie-machine on first floor Ruffner, helplessly shoving quarters and dimes into it voracious maw and pressing its many buttons, only to watch the wrong spiral spin around, dropping nothing because the only spiral that works is the one that is empty? And how many of us have paid for foods at the munchie-area in Frazer, only to find that the microwave oven is out-of-order, and been left standing there with a cold sandwich? Canned-drink machines, too, have their idiosyncrasies, but the ones that issue their wares in cups are the most exasperating.

I recently encountered a machine of this sort in the basement of Main Cunningham.

Innocently, I dropped my quarter into its plastic slot, and pressed the brightly-lit button (most vending machines have colorful, brightly-lit decorations, having the purpose of distracting the customer from any visible malfunctions). This machine, however, displayed no intent of giving me my drink. It gurgled

and chugged, but nothing more.

After pressing all of the other buttons, and juggling the coinreturn lever (has anyone ever gotten their corns returned by jiggling the coin-return lever?), I dropped another quarter into it.

This time, I got a paper cup, some carbonated water and ice, but nothing more. Now, like the Las Vegas gambler, I was hooked—I shoved yet another coin into this malevolent metal monster. Hopefully, I hit the button again. This time, it gurgled, hissed, sputtered, and finally showered forth my muchawaited drink. It also neglected to spit out a cup, so all I could do was to helplessly watch the stuff run down the drain (Placed there on the assumption that the machine only issues a cup onethird of the time). At that point, I gave up.

Pinball machines are another form of vending machine (vending a few minutes of teethgritting excitement for your quarter), and Ixwigwood has its shore of oddly-working pinball machines. Take the one in Lankford, for example, that works on pennies, in lieu of a quarter. Or the one that used to sit beside it last year, and which tilted every time someone made a strike in the bowling alley next door. Pinball machines have one difference from other forms of vending machines in the fact that they are designed to limit the amount of time one can play.

Much skull-sweat went into the idea of placing magnets under the boards of these machines,

which have the effect of pulling the metal pinball into the wrong areas.

Much skull-sweat also goes into the many sophomoric attempts to thwart vending machines in their seemingly intentional acts of coin-stealing. Think of the delight one got when watching the munchie-machine in Main Cunningham spit out endless streams of quarters during that period of its life when its coin-box was broken. While the plexiglass face of this machine is impervious to anything up to a point-blank blast from a howitzer, it is not, however, "sophomore-proof". Someone is always figuring out a way to answer the age-old question: How to get something for nothing, and better yet, how to get something for nothing from a machine? When the inner workings of this same machine went totally crazy, one could get millions of calories worth of artificially-flavored junk food merely by holding down the last three buttons. One can envy the thin-armed person who reaches up inside this machine and picks out whatever he or she wants.

works by Susan C. Waters, a 19th century itinerant painter, on exhibit in Bedford Gallery at Longwood from October 19 through November 19.

The paintings, brought together in an exhibition for the first time, include a selection of landscapes, still life, animal paintings, and portraits. The works displayed are from several public and private folk art collections.

Mrs. Waters began her artisticcareer by painting portraits, however, due to the invention of the camera her commissions for portraits diminished sharply and she began painting still life and animal scenes. She was exceptional in her paintings of sheep, painting them from her own back yard.

Because of the poor health of Mrs. Waters' husband, the earnings from her painting was a major source of the family income. Her work was greatly appreciated and encouraged by her Quaker husband. In 1876, Mrs. Waters successfully exhibited at the Centennial Exhibition in Pennsylvania. She painted for 60 years until shortly before her death in July 1900.

The Susan Waters collection owes much of its information to Colleen Heslip, a master's candidate at the State University of New York. She has put together this account of the artist from old family records. Ms. Heslip has catalogued about 25 out of hundreds of Mrs. Waters' portraits.

The Susan Waters Exhibit is sponsored by the longwood Fine Arts Center. The LFAC aims at providing an exhibit and lecture program to serve both the College and surrounding community. The Susan Waters collection in Bedford Gallery will be open to the public Monday through Sunday 2-5 p.m. An illustrated catalogue of the works

by Mrs. Waters ($3.95) and poster ($2.00) may be purchased from the Art Department.

Another very talented artist,

Greg Gilliam, has a collection of artworks on display in the Showcase Gallery at Umgwood.

The exhibition by Gilliam, a senior art major, includes acrylic and oil painting, drawings, and prints.

Gilliam, from Farmville, is concentrating in studio painting and will receive the bachelor of fine arts degree in May. Greg's talent is not only in art, he has played baseball and basketball for I-ongwood and performed in the Longwood Players' production of "Our Town."

Greg's work is on exhibit in the Reading Rooms of I-ankford from October 14-25 and the public is cordially invited to view this fine display of talent

Booters Hold Own

Men's Athletics Applies For Division II Status From Sports Information ixjngwood College has taken a significant step toward upgrading its men's athleticprogram by deciding to apply for reclassification from NCAA Division III to NCAA Division II for the 1980-81 school year.

The recommendation to apply for Division II status was made by the college's Intercollegiate Athletic Council in a nearunanimous 7-1 vote and approved

by President Henry I Willett, Jr. this week.

According to IAC chairman Dr. I ('. Dalton, administrative assistant to the president, the decision to upgrade the men's athletic program is only a part of a long range study concerning the future of athletics at I-ongwood.

At present, I-ongwood Fields men's teams in basketball, baseball, golf, wrestling and soccer, with all teams competing on a non-scholarship basis in Division III. In women's athletics, which includes teams in basketball, field hockey, golf, ;ymnastics, lacrosse, tennis, riding and volleyball, athletic scholarships are currently offered in four sports.

In practical terms, the decision means that IiOngwood will offer athletic scholarships for men's basketball for the 1980-81 season. after the NCAA has approved the college's application for Division II. To meet requirements for Division II the basketball team

must schedule at least half its games against Division II schools for 1980-81 and the college must offer six sports teams for men.

Tentative plans call for the college to add men's tennis for 1980-81 as the sixth men's sport.

Women's softball, a sport that is growing rapidly, may also be added.

In announcing the decision Dr. Dalton emphasized two major points.

"Longwood will continue to uphold its strong tradition in women's athletics," he said. "We do not intend to build up the men's athletic program at the expense of the women's program."

The I-ongwood administrator added that the school will have to look for outside sources for funds to finance its athletic program in the future.

"We intend to look for new ways to secure money for our athletic program," Dalton explained. "We plan to pursue the areas of fund raising and soliciting private contributions, and with the completion of our new physical education complex set for this summer, the possibility of securing funds from gate receipts is also under study,."

Currently, the Longwood athletic program is financed by funds from student fees. lancer athletics will greatly benefit from the college's new $4.5 million health, physical

Hockey Team Faces Many Trials

By DKBRIE NORTHERN The I-ancer field hockey team gained a lot of experience and more than their share of frustration during their journey to Ohio over Fall Break to take on the Ohio State Buckeyes, Purdue and Dennison.

Excitement mounted as \£ stepped on the astro-turf in Ohio stadium. A cold, heavy mist fell the entire game as the lancers were shut out by this powerful team 5-0.

The I -incers were unused to the List paced turf. OSU controlled tn«> *>T shots c?Vm»<- »~ the h:ill ball iinninu getting nff off 23 to I is one. The first half went i airly well as I-ongwood's defense held the Buckeyes to one goal. In the second half, Ohio was able to get their final four goals into the cage.

The next day, the Lancers hit some more turf to take on Purdue. Again the lancers had trouble adjusting to the fast pace of turf, after preparing at home 01) a slow, bumpy surface. Firing '25 shots to Ixmgwood's two, Purdue took a 2-0 victory.

Their final day in Ohio, longwood played a scrimmage match with Dennison University DU junior Hilary Robinson had an outstanding game, contributing four goals to their 51 win. (hene Stevens put in the I Mincer's only score in the second half The team returned home with an active schedule of five games.

Last Tuesday, they travelled to Old Dominion University. In a hard fought battle, LC .fell 2-1. At half, the score was tied and remained that way until the end of the second half of the game

The I^ancer offense was just unable to rally. Cherie Stevens had Ixmgwood's only goal.

The JV Lancers ended the game in a scoreless tie with ODU. Thursday both teams returned to school from Harrisonburg with a victory under their belt. The varsity chalked up their second win with a 2-0 score over Bridgewater. Julie Dayton put in a goal in each half for LC. The JV team pounced on Bridgewater for a 4-0 victory.

Kim Wood led the lancer attack with her excellent; play to score throoiinalc loon Wolrnlim c-nn-nA three goals. Jean Wakelyn scored the other goal.

After five road games, the lancers returned home to host Duke Saturday. Despite a fine effort, the I^ancers ended the game in a 3-2 deficit.

Included in the new facility, which will be ready for use prior to the opening of the college next fall, will be a large gymnasium with 3,000 permanent seats, an auxiliary gymnasium, modern training facilities, an indoor pool and five outdoor tennis courts, plus classrooms and offices for the college's health, physical education and recreation programs.

SPORTS

In their only action before break, the l^ancer Soccer team fell to Virginia Wesleyan 2-0.

The Longwood booters experienced more than their share of misfortune over Fall Break in North Carolina. After dropping a 6-0 decision to Atlantic Christian Friday, Oct. 12 the I-ancers battled North Carolina Wesleyan to a 1-1 tie Saturday afternoon, playing the entire second half and the two overtimes with just eight players, excluding goalie Rob Walsh The trip got off to a bad start when Mario and Gustavo Leal (Rockville, MD) were inable to make travel connections from Maryland and missed both

games. The Leals' absence forced coach Rich Posipanko to insert two reserves in his starting lineup.

Saturday's game with N.C. Wesleyan was unusual to say the least. Final statistics showed that the Bishops had 56 shots to I-ongwood's 16 and that Welsh saved a shopping 36 shots from entering the lancer goal.

In the first half Longwood's Mike I^wis (Charlottesville) and Ken Gebbie (Virginia Beach) were ejected, leaving the I^ancers with only nine players to N.C. Wesleyan's 11. Starting midfielder Paul Robertson (Wellesley, MA) was knocked out of the I^ancer lineup by a first half knee injury.

After a 00 tie at the half, Joe Parker (Hatboro, PA) scored to put the Lancers on top 1-0, but the Bishops answered Parker's goal with one of their own.

Longwood and Welsh, in particular, spent the final 80 minutes (15 min. in first half, 45 min. second half plus two 10-min. overtime periods) fighting off N.C. Wesleyan shots. Saturday's tie was more than a moral victory for the Uncers.

Experienced Threesome Leads Lancer Hockey Without a backbone, the human body would be a shapeless mass, unable to perform its basic functions. The Longwood field hockey team would be in much the same shape without its "backbone"—juniors Julie Dayton and Ten Davis and senior Wanda Petersen.

Dayton (Laurel, Del.), Davis (Alexandria) and Petersen (Alexandria) can be found in the thick of the action anytime the I^ancers perform.

While Longwood, 2-8-2 has gotten mixed views on its early season performance, the play of Dayton, Davis and Petersen has been exceptional. Coach Bette Harris is extremely high on her trio of leaders.

"These three hockey players are experienced," she stated.

"They provide us with leadership both on and off the field. Julie, Terri and Wanda possess qualities which help keep team unity and performance on a high level."

While all three are serious hockey players, they contribute in different ways. Dayton, a forward, leads the attach with her exceptional quickness.

Petersen, an agressive centerhalf, is all over the field on both offense and defense. In goal, Davis provides her teammates with the assurance that the last line of resistance is in good hands.

The I^ancer captain this season after serving as a tri-captain in 1978, Dayton has been playing field hockey since the seventh grade and always on offense. At laurel Senior High School, she played hockey four years in addition to basketball and softball.

The pint-sized (5'0") Dayton was attracted to Ixmgwood by the school's strong field hockey program and its small college atmosphere. The lancers face some of the top field hockey teams in the nation each year, such as Virginia, William and Mary and Ohio State.

Dayton's talents have been recognized at the national level.

Chosen as one of 90 players to advance from the lower level camp to middle level in national field hockey tryouts last summer, Julie hopes to move up the ladder to the top level camp this summer. The junior passes on tips gained from the experience to her teammates.

"I saw some really good hockey in camp and learned a lot," Julie said. "I played some defense as well as offense for insight into that part of the game.

The camps are both mentally and physically demanding," she added.

Dayton realizes that her goal of reaching to top level of tryouts is an ambitious one, but then she has always strived to reach the top. "I guess one of my problems is that I expect too much out of myself. I expect perfection," she said.

CARTER'S FLOWER SHOP 711 W. 3rd. St. Farmville, Va. "Your Flower Headquarters"

A Health, Physical Education and Recreation major, Dayton is shooting for a career as a teacher and coach on the college level.

She has scored four goals for the Lancer hockey team thus far.

While Davis and Petersen both hail from Alexandria, the two were opponents in high school in several sports. Teri played hockey, softball and basketball at Groveton, while Wanda competed in basketball, softball, track and hockey at Fort Hunt.

A versatile athlete, Petersen has played several positions during her field hockey career. A goalie and halfback in high school, she has played link for three years at Ix>ngwood and now plays center-half. Like Dayton, Wanda is a three-year starter.

A senior majoring in Government and Social Science, Petersen was a team captain last season.

Speed and strength are perhaps Petersen's greatest asset on the hockey field and she uses them to good advantage. The senior is particularly adept at pilfering the ball from opponents and starting a charge toward the other team's goal.

Reacting too quickly and using strength instead of technique are shortcomings which Wanda admits to being guilty of at times.

A positive thinker, she feels that Ixincers can do well in the remainder of the season if the team doesn't get down on itself.

"The only thing that will defeat our team is not a lack of skill, but a lack of experience," she said.

"But, if we don't think we can do it, we will defeat ourselves."

Also a standout on the national level in flatwater kayaking, Petersen attended the lower level national field hockey camp last summer. This active senior hopes to pursue a career in law or teaching.

As goalie, junior Teri Davis is constantly under fire in her position as the team's last line of defense. Playing against some of the nation's top teams, she has recorded 110 saves in ten games.

Prior to an 8-1 loss to 15th ranked William & Mary, she had allowed only eight goals in five contests.

To play goalie one must have speed, quick reflexes and a positive attitude. That Davis possesses these qualities is evidenced by her accomplishments. Named MVP for her undefeated District championship team at Groveton in 1976, she was selected as the All-Camp goalie at the Mount Pocono Hockey Camp this past summer.

More than perhaps any other position in field hockey, goalies experience emotional highs and lows. While fending off repeated scoring attempts by an opponent

brings a feeling of satisfaction, allowing one shot to find its way into the net can wipe out this good feeling.

Davis says she becomes frustrated if a goal is scored which she felt she could have prevented.

"If it's a good shot, I accept it better," she admitted. "You have to play every game like a championship game. I'll do anything to keep the ball out of our goal.

Davis also credits her teammates with keeping her spirits up.

"My teammates give me confidence and spirit, constructive criticism and praise. They think about you," says Teri. "Without their help, I would not want to be in the cage."

A Health, Physical Education and Recreation major, Davis aspires to be a coach someday.

With our varied athletic background, she should be a natural. In addition to her exploits in field hockey, Teri was MVP in softball in 1975 and 1976 and Most Outstanding Senior Girl Athlete in 1977 at Groveton.

Dayton, Petersen and Davis also participate in lacrosse at I-ongwood, but the trio do not confine their activities to athletics. They are also leaders on the student Legislative Board.

Wanda is president of the student body, Julie is corresponding secretary and Teri is treasurer.

As is the case with the field hockey team, the school would not be the same without them.

Luttwak felt that SALT should be placed in a proper perspective which is a subordinate role to overall strategy. He thought that the U.S. last had an effective strategy between the years of 1944-1951 which was dominated by the U.S. policy of containment.

By SUSAN TOWLER The Longwood College women's volleyball team cleaned up the past two weeks with four wins and one loss. Facing opponents such as Bridgewater, Ferrum College, Hampton Institute, James Madison University, and Hollins, the volleyball team showed what hard work and determination can do. Ix)sing only to JMU the team now has a 5-2 record.

On October 1, the volleyball team defeated Bridgewater with scores of 15-9,15-7, and 15-3 in the first match. Meg Cook and Julie Petefish both played outstanding games.

Their skill and aggressiveness was a big threat to Bridgewater. In addition, the consistent play of Robin Hungate and Sherry Will brought the team together for good play. The most outstanding feature of the Bridgewater game, however, was the score of the last game of the first match. Trailing by a score of 2-13, I-ongwood pulled together to beat Bridgewater for the game and the match, recovering with a score of 15-13.

In the second match with Bridgewater, Ixmgwood won with scores of 15-13, 3-15, and 15-10.

The players worked hard in this match and came back to win the third game and the match.

Having their hands full on The conference ended with a debate between Senator Gary Hart (D-Colorado) and Senator William Cohen (R-Maine) with Mr. Burt of the New York Times acting as moderator.

Senator Hart emphasized that the treaty enhances U.S. security and lessens the chances of nuclear war. The treaty places limits on weapons and also lorces the Soviets to dismantle ten per cent of their existing weapons.

Hart went on to state that the U.S. is left unrestrained to continue its programs of defense which the U.S. feels necessary to their security.

Senator Cohen stated that there was no real reduction under SALT I or II He could not understand why the Soviet backfire bomber was not included in the agreement while the aged U.S. B52 was. Cohen felt that the protocol which call for restraint of U.S. cruise missile would give the Russians an excellent bargaining position to start with when the protocol ran out and the U.S. deployed the cruise missile.

He felt that the question of verification has not been

October 4, Ixmgwood played both Hampton Institute with scores of \54 and 15-11. With identical scores they also beat Ferrum.

The play in both of these matches was consistent and the team kept to their game plan as much as possible. Strong hitters and a smart defense were also great assets to I-ongwood in these matches.

Traveling to Hollins on October 16, I-ongwood played both Hollins and James Madison University.

Longwood beat Hollins with scores of 15-13 and 15-18. The team played well and very consistent, even when Hollins threatened to come back. Rhonda Woody and Kathy Gunning, who usually substitute, started the second game of this match and stayed the entire game to help win the match.

I-ongwood lost to Madison with scores of 7-15 and 14-tf. The second game of this match was very close and could have gone either way. , The volleyball team looks really strong this season. They have a lot of potential in two new team members, Kathy Gunning and Madeline Moose. These new team members and the already consistent old members combine to promise an exciting volleyball season. The next home match is against Christopher-Newport.

October 24, at 6 p.m. adequately resolved considering such things as cruise missile range and mirus in Soviet missiles cannot be verified Cohen also believed that the sell publicized MX missile would not be deployed in the most advantageous way to the U.S. because of Soviet objectives to verification of the number of MX's.

THE GREAT ESCAPE, You dream about it at night... the day you can close your books, get out of this place and forget about studying for awhile.

Well, the Great Escape is here.. this weekend, with Greyhound. Escape to the country or go see some friends. Just decide which escape route you want and we'll do the rest.

We'll get you out of town and away from the books so you can clear your head. It doesn't cost much and it'll do you a world of good.

So make the Great Escape this weekend... with Greyhound.
