NO. 8

Among Other Actions:

Board Votes To Write-Off Accounts

By MELODY CRAWLEY In Board actions, Thursday, longwood's Board of Visitors approved the request to write-off 12 students' accounts totalling $9,871.10 as uncollectable. Four of these students had accounts unpaid for two consecutive years.

President Henry I. Willett, Jr., pointed out to the Board that the college had, "made considerable improvement through the years."

All of the accounts had been turned over to the collection agency. Nine of these had been returned to the agency marked "will not pay," while three were marked "Skip-no address." The other four were bankrupt. The accounts covered 1972-77.

Board member Mrs. Overstreet questioned the use of

attorneys instead of collection agencies in this area. President Willett explained that the Attorney General's office had taken over in this area.

PROMOTION AND TENURE The Board passed the provisions set up by the Ad Hoc Committee on Promotion and Tenure. They had left the decision unresolved after last July's meeting and called for the reconstruction of the Ad Hoc Committee.

The provisions are set up to provide that chairmen be considered for promotion and tenure in the same way as other members of the faculty, except where provided substitutions for chairman recommendations are needed.

In voting to approve the

Poses Election Problems Problems are developing with the upcoming Major-Minor elections. The main problem has been the lack of applications for Judicial and Residence Boards, IAA, and Student Union.

The deadline for these petitions was Sunday, November 4, at 12 midnight. In an interview Saturday with Jan Bates, Chairman of Elections Committee, Miss Bates states, "If the petitions are the same, we might extend the deadline through Wednesday."

She also stated that applications for Legislative Board are relatively unopposed.

As far as the other offices, Residence and Judicial Board are wide open. So far two people have

transfers. He also added that no one realizes, "how much each individual was actually concentrated on."

Board member Lester E. Andrews replied that the complaints he heard dealt with the manner in which it was done.

MARKET RESEARCH: John J. Mitchell, Director of Public Affairs, reported that the college had finished a Market Research in which Ixmgwood College was seen as a four-year, state-supported, co-educational, comprehensive school. He also commented that Ixmgwood did not appeal to minority students

because of the location of the school and the history of the area.

GRANTS: According to Director of College Relations George R. Bristol, the college will probably sell the recently acquired Robertson land. He described it as low land in a residential area.

"No official action has been taken," he stressed. He also stated that the rollege has acquired one of its largest grants last week but he has not received otfi< ial notification BS of Friday.

Other various reports wengiven by administrators on Friday.

provisions, Board member Ralph Page said, "Thank you, and this has been a long haul." The Ad Hoc committee, composed of Dr. Susan H. May, chairman; Dr. Betty A. Bowman, Dr. David A. Breil, and Dr. James M. Helms, had considered several alternatives and recommendations which had been rejected by either the Board or the faculty.

FACULTY TRAVEL: In other action, the Board unanimously approved the use of $913.67 interest on a memorial gift to the college for faculty travel. This was an area that was cut back extremely in this year's budget due to lack of funds.

BUDGET REPORT: Vice President of Finance James L. Bradnscome, along with President Willett, gave an update on the statewide fiscal situation and Longwood's budget.

According to President Willett, there is, "not a lot of extra money to look at." He explained to the Board that he feels a need to increase tuition, but is not allowed to because of State regulations and limitations.

Longwood's actual budget for 1979-80 is $6,272,900.

OFF CAMPUS HOUSING: Dean Mary A. Heintz presented a committee's study on off campus housing. The committee, made up of some faculty, but no students, felt that the off-campus housing rule should stay the same. No student is allowed to live off-campus unless he is living with his parents or guardians.

Most of this committee's work was done during the summer.

HEAD COUNT: Dean Carolyn Wells reported that the opening head count for this semester was 2470. She emphasized that this is an increase over last year due to the increase in students remaining in school. According to Dean Wells, approximately 100 more upperclassmen returned than planned.

In answer to a question from Board member, Mrs. J.L. Davidson, Dean Heintz answered that 28 students had withdrawn at this point in the semester. She also said that there were still some triples in the dormitories.

An outstanding two-sport athlete and later head basketball coach ;it Lynchburg, Hodges was cited for bringing credit and distinction to the college through her involvement in intercollegiate activities both as an athlete and a coach.

A member of the I-ongwood athletic staff since 1972, Hodges made a name for herself in both basketball and field hockey at Lynchburg from I960 to 1964. A varsity participant in both sports tor four years, she was recognized as the school's outstanding eager during her last three years In the period in which she played. Lynchburg basketball teams had combined record of 40-13, including 12-2 marks her last two years.

"It is really a special occasion for me because one of my former players (Pat Rhodes-1969 grad) was also inducted. I just feel honored to have been chosen."

because of space limitations that all teams cannot be housed in the new facility. We must keep in mind that physical education and intramural activities will also be held in the new facility."

Dr. Dalton explained that academic trips were cut and athletic trips were not because of the college's two broad budgetary categories. "One is education and general," he explained in his release, "which includes all the academic budgets. Athletic expenses are funded by student athletic fees, which are an auxiliary enterprise budgetary item." He further explained that state regulations do not allow the transfer of money. The funds for athletic scholarships also come from student fees.

The standards of both men and women sports were also questioned. To participate in the program, athletes must not be on academic probation. Dr. Dalton also stated, Longwood will continue to uphold its strong tradition in women's athletics.

We do not intend to build up the men's Athletic program at the expense of the Women's program."

Feature Series:

Judicial Board And Student Union

By DEBRA CUNNINGHAM and PAULA JOHNSON The Judicial Board enforces the regulations made by the legislative Board and strives to instill the meaning of the Honor Code in the minds of the students of Longwood College. Its members work with the students both openly and confidentially in their interest in the individual and his welfare.

The Board is currently undergoing restructuring changes. Members of the Board are working with the administration to revise a plan for structure that seems workable to both students and administrators.

The positions available are chairman, vice-chairman, and secretary. There are also two representatives from each class plus four investigators (one from each class).

The chairman presides over trials. Vice-chairman currently oversees investigators. The secretary does everything from writing notes to members reminding them of meetings to taping actual trials.

The Student Union is a studentoperated organization which sponsors the majority of events on campus. As a programming organization, the Student Union plans and executes such events as mixers, concerts, trips, lectures, coffeehouses, and films.

Often unrecognized for their outstanding efforts, the Longwood Company of Dancers added to the entertainment during Oktoberfest weekend with another enhancing performance.

Photo by David Gatts

Fine Art In Motion The Longwood College Company of Dancers will present their fall concert on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings, November 8-10, at 7:30 p.m. in Jarman Auditorium.

The program will include ten dances choreographed and performed by students, under the direction of Dr. Betty Bowman.

The first dance on the program will be "Quiet Moments," choreographed by Grace Ann Rodgers. Performed by seven dancers to the music of Satie's Gymnopedics, the dance reflects 'the inner quietness" the choreographer sometimes feels. ''Assimilation,'' choreographed by Teresa Heatwole, is "a story of the natural and necessary assimilation of life experiences, sometimes taken a bit tongue in cheek."

Elizabeth Cardin is the choreographer of "For This Season," which employs the cyclic pattern of the seasons to show the flow of emotions within relationships.

"Primitive Collage," choreographed by Adrienne Heard, is "a collection of imaginings about Africa," including village life, a hunt, a fight, and return to the village.

Other dances and choreographers are: "Duet for Four," Tracey Hormuth; "Trio," Vanessa Baird; â&#x20AC;˘Permutations," Tracey Hormuth and Grace Ann Rodgers; "Rehearsal Hall," Terri Stuart; and "Midnight Wind," Cindy Morris.

The final number, "Finale," was choreographed by Ellen Hitt to capture the fun and exhilaration of the polka.

The dance concerts are open to the public at no charge.

Grant Lectures On Job Market

By MARY GRANT Dennys Grant, Senior Vice President and Director of Personnel at Wheat First Securities in Richmond gave a lecture on "The Job Market And You-How To Decide What Job To Go After And How To Get It" on Thursday, November 1, in Jeffers Auditorium.

Grant began his lecture by telling the audience that 'the job market is never good". He explained that job competition is

not only between people who are unemployed, but includes those people who are employed and looking for a better or more satisfying job.

Grant went on to explain how the job market is continuously changing. In 15 years there will be new jobs created to keep up with our changing society and some jobs will be obsolete.

Duck's Breath Brings Life

By LISA HUGHES Longwood College Student Union has a winning record of preselecting entertainment which enlivens otherwise dull week ends. Saturday night's performance of Duck's Breath Mystery Theatre was certainly no exception.

Duck's Breath was truly bizarre humor at its best. The troupe of five men ran the gamut of parody on everything from artistic culture and English theatre to Saturday morning

television and punk rock.

Unlike most theatre, where the audience sits back and watches, uninvolved, the troupe made an effort to bring the audience in on the fun. A carousing rendition of "Old MacDonald Had a Farm" certainly did just this. But, the audience didn't stop there! A favorite sketch, "Sky King" had the watchers become players.

It was an evening to be cherished by lovers of Fire Sign Theatre and Saturday Night Live. Duck's Breath did it all, even at Longwood College!

Your Turn— CHI Speaks

6 6o a

Dear Longwood College Students, In a 1975 issue of the Rotunda, a special feature was done by The question was asked—Where do you think CHI will be five years from now? Well, 1980 is right around the corner and as it approaches CHI can still be seen and felt as the same.

Despite the many changes that have taken place on the campus of Ungwood, CHI's essential purpose, which is to promote and maintain a spirit of cooperation among students, can still be seen in the hearts and minds of those who seek its real purpose.

With this in mind, every member of the student body is a member of CHI. The members of the organization itself serve only as a representation of the ideals of the college.

To represent our support of the students of logwood College, CHI is displaying a table in the

new smoker or Rotunda sometime during the week of November 5,1979. CHI would also like to recognize and support "Arts up front", in their purpose of continuing the arts at Longwood.

It is through your support of CHI and CHI's support of you, that the ideals and consistent spirit that is felt by many, will continue throughout the years.

In Blue and White Spirit, CHI of 1980

Resignation Letter To the Student Body: I am resigning as Fire Warden of Residence Board effective at Noon on Tuesday, the 30th day of October 1979.

I am resigning for many reasons. These include: (A) The lack of support Residence Board receives from

the faculty and staff of the college.

(B) The unwillingness of the administration to listen to the students, who pay their salaries, in dealing with some of the archaic rules and regulations of the Boards. And especially the obstacles the administration presents to the Boards when they try to change these rules and structures to remain current and viable organizations on campus.

(C) The inability of the Residence Board and Resident Staff to work together. Such as, a member of the staff telling RA's that they do not have to enforce Residence or Judicial Board rules and policies. And of members of the staff and board participating in, and helping plan, violations of college policy and state law.

(E) The hypocrisy of some of the members of both Residence Board and Residence staff in dealing with certain rules and state laws.

I feel that Residence Board could become a very important and essential part of Longwood, but only if reorganized into a viable organization. Residence Board, as it is now, can and will not be a functioning Board and I am tired of wasting my time in dealing with it.

Sincerely, David Wall

p.m., we were looking out of the study room window and noticed that they were harrassing other students walking by, especially small groups of girls. After watching this happen a few more times we decided something had to be done. After calling Campus Police and receiving no answer, we called the Infirmary and asked them to inform Campus Police of their whereabouts and to please do something. We watched for them to come for approximately 10 to 15 minutes and they never came. The guys left and five minutes later the police still had not come.

After the abduction of one of our students by a local last year, I would think that campus police would have responded.

I was told they were here to protect us. Nothing happened that night but it could have. The campus is relatively small and since campus police are supposed to patrol campus, it seems that they should have plenty of time to get there and do the job we are paying them for. If this cannot be done, then the college should adequately light the sidewalks and streets to protect the students since campus police has shown they can not.

A concerned student

Police Adequate?

Dear Editor, Being a senior at Longwood College (and one of the first males to graduate), I have seen many traditions hold a cherished spotlight in the hearts and minds of the students here.

Unfortunately, some of these traditions have been around so long that they defy any logic to explain them.

Now, don't get me wrong. Some traditions at Longwood are unique and promote good morale on campus. One in particular, however, has just gotten to the point of complete foolishness.

Last week, during Oktoberfest, ARA Services compiled with a tradition which was started many years ago. They supplied a 400 pound cake to be enjoyed by the parents and friends (not to mention a few students), after the skits. Approximately 350 people had a slice of this cake.

Talking to Mr. Inge, director of the food service, he informed me that the cake cost $2.50 a pound to produce. This does not include the man-hours paid to the people who made it. If you do a little quick arithmetic, that means the Oktoberfest cake this year cost over $1,000 to produce, or roughly $2.85 a slice for every person who ate it last Saturday.

Granted, there was a lot of cake left over which will be recycled in various ways by our dining service, and that ARA Services paid for the cake entirely (not using any student money). But couldn't that $1,000 be used in a better way to serve the students?

There has been a lot of talk lately that the food service here at Longwood has deteriorated.

This may have no basis in fact, but I can remember when ARA first provided a salad bar and the wonderful selection it had, and what the salad (?) bar looks like now, I would think that a $1,000 could bring back a quality to the food service here (or at least to the salad bar) that we students have sorely missed.

Remember, one man's cake is another man's poison.

Brown and White love, George Bennett (Class of80)

Dear Editor, Recently a friend and I were walking to Curry, and out of nowhere three guys came up to us and asked directions to Cox. After telling them, they began to follow us. They told us they were from Farmville and wanted to know where to find people to party with. They were obviously in no need of a party. There was no hope of losing them although we tried. They followed us all the way from Lankford to the front steps of Curry. Not more than fifteen minutes later, around 11

Wc have all seen these signs at one time or another on campus, but have we ever stopped for a moment to think of the question it asks?

Major-Minor elections will be held soon and according to the chairman of Elections Committee, not many are running. Of the three boards, all are virtually unopposed. Applications for Student Union and IAA have a combined total of three positions. As stated elsewhere in this paper, the problem stems from the new Judicial Board proposal (see Page 1).

Longwood has often been noted for its spirit when it came time for Oktoberfest, Mardi Gras Weekend, and Spring Weekend, but now that it is election time, where is all that spirit? Our spirit has been replaced by apathy. It has been written that apathy is sometimes good because it keeps those out of office who were not qualified.

Someone wrote on one of these signs, "It'll be great for Longwood." We ask you, would it really be "great" if our college had no rules or means of enforcing these rules? It is doubtful that it would be. Think of it this way — would you rather live in an environment where pandemonium prevailed and everyone was out for Number One? If our Federal and state governments had no one running for offices, what would our society be like? Would we end up with a dictatorship or would we fall into decay — perhaps like that of the Roman Empire? True, these are all suppositions, but think about it. The freedoms we hold dear to us would be gone.

But back to the situation here at Longwood ... As students we should take pride in our school and participate in as many ways as possible. That means academically as well as extracurricular activities — sports, committees, etc.

This also means serving in an elected capacity.

Do not be apathetic about Major-Minor elections. If you feel you are capable for any of the various offices available, please become a candidate. What we need is responsible leadership.

Think about it!

By CHRIS VOGEL A collection of works painted

by Mrs. Susan C. Waters is on display now in the Bedford Gallery, at the Longwood Fine Arts Center. Mrs. Colleen Cowles Heslip of Wilmington, Delaware is guest curator.

Susan Waters was a Nineteenth Century itinerant painter. Born in 1823, in Binghamton, New York, she married William C. Waters in 1841. Most of her early works were portraits, painted in small towns in southern New York and Northern Pennsylvania in the 1840's.

Many of her early portraits were painted on any available material found. This consisted of cotten, linen, or matress ticking, often primed with a white ground.

The treatment of the faces in Mrs. Waters' earliest portraits (1844) were rather harsh. The faces contined many hard lines and the eyes and mouths appeared pinched. The young children appeared much older than what available documentation indicated. By

1845, her style unproved, showing more softness in line and a less "pinched"' expression.

Common to Mrs. Waters portraits was an eye for detail in the fabrics. Mrs. Waters handled the great detail in the lace and prints quite well.

Also common in Mrs. Waters portraits were the addition of animals, plants, and foliage. The animals in the early portraits were very primative. They lack dimension, but have a charm all their own. Potted plants and foliage are evident in all the portraits except those of the men.

The inclusion of plants and foliage, along with schematic landscapes; longlobed ears; and fat, boneless hands are characteristic of Susan Waters' portraits.

With the development of the camera, the portrait market dwindled. Mrs. Waters turned to the camera herself and continued traveling, taking daguerreotypes and ambrotypes, while teaching drawing and painting.

Mrs. Waters returned to painting in the 1860's. Her

Men's Basketball Building

By CHUCK COLE Several projects are currently underway on the Longwood campus. Among those is the rebuilding of the rooms destroyed by the fire in Curry Dormitory last year. Also included is the construction of the new Health and Physical Education Building scheduled for completion this summer.

Ix)ngwood students have grown accustomed to the noise and the dust which are associated with construction of these types. But there is one project currently underway whose noise may be the most significant in the brief history of men's athletics on the long wood campus.

November 15 marks the first public appearance of the 1979-80 Lancer basketball team as they exhibit the form which they hope

will carry them to the NCAA Division III Tournament in a Blue and White scrimmage at 815 p.m. The JVs will play at 6:30.

At the helm of the Lancers once again will be Dr. Ron Bash, who led last year's team to a recordsetting 19-8 season and a Virginia Invitational Kiwanis Tournament Championship.

The Championship was the first one brought to the Ixmgwood campus by a male athletic team.

Joining Coach Bash courtside this year will be Assistant Coach Mo Schoepfer. Schoepfer brings an impressive basketball background to the Lancer coaching staff. Among his credentials are a few years in professional basketball with the Hartford Capitols and MVP award in his senior year at

Boston University.

Coach Bash commented on his goals for the season.

"When the season is winding down, I want the Lancers in the South-Atlantic NCAA Division III Tournament as the At-Large team." (The At-Large bid is the only nonconference bid in the South-Atlantic Region). We will be bucking precedent, as Virginia teams have never been selected over northern powerhouses like Upsula and New Jersey State.

There is a chance of switching regions, but the chance is not that good. We must win all of our Division III games."

Winning all of the Division III games of the schedule will be no easy feat. Stony Brook (Bash's former school), Salem, Manhattanville, Queensville, Greensboro, Averett, and the

Lady Lancers Look For Improved Season

By DEBBIE NORTHERN Long wood's women's basketball team, which opened preseason drills October 1, has high hopes for improving on last season's 7-16 record as the lancers begin their fourth year tinder the tutelage of head coach Carolyn Hodges, who will be assisted by Ms. Jane Miller.

The 1-ady I-ancers, 33-30 during Hodges' three years at the helm, came in second in the state in 1976 and third in the state in 1977 while competing in the large college division of the VFISW. This season, however, Ixmgwood is playing in Division II of the Virginia Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women

played eight games last year, averaging 14 points and five rebounds per game.

Adding additional height to the team will be freshmen Cindy Eckel, Karen Savarese, Teresa Ferrante, and Robyn Goff. Eckel, a 5'11" forward South Plainfield, N.J., averaged 18 points and 10 rebounds per game in high school. The tallest Lancer will be 6' Savarese from Trumbull,

top three in our division and have a winning record, we'll have better overall height, but we'll have to score more points to reach our goals. We would like to get our points per game into the 70's," says Hodges. Last year the Lady Lancers averaged 58 points per game.

Hodges, director of women's athletics, hopes her team will get off to a strong start with five of its first six games at home.

Gymnasts Young, But Experienced

•We should be much improved," says Hodges.

The only difference this change will make in the Lancer schedule is that national champs Old Dominion will not be included.

However, the tady Lancers will host the l«idy Monarchs in an exhibition game November 15, 1980 to celebrate the opening of the new gymnasium.

There arc still five Division I schools included on the Lancer •I.it. Highlighting their winter action will be a trip to Florida to take on Bethane-Cookman College, Florida Tech, and Eckerd College during Christmas Break "We should be much improved over last season." said Hodges, with the experience gained last season by our returning players plus the addition of several strong recruits, we should have more scoring punch and stronger rebounding."

Hodges can count on eight returning lettermen plus a strong group of incoming freshmen recruits to bolster her team's chances in the upcoming campaign.

Heturning to the lineup will be 5'9" junior Brenda Fettrow who doubles as a forward and guard.

Laat year she averaged 12 points and six rebounds per game.

Sophomore Robin Hungate will also be seeing a lot of action this fall. The 5'10" forward averaged nine points and five rebounds per game.

HEAD COACH: Carolyn Hodges

If you pop your head in French gym, you would find ten hard working young ladies, either flip flopping on the mats, bouncing over the horse, or even swinging on the unevens. These gymnasts have been practicing since the first day of classes and have been preparing for their first meet, which is November 17 at Georgia College.

After speaking with Coach Ruth Budd, she feels like the stronger events will be floor exercise and balance beam.

Vaulting will be fairly strong, with the weaker event being the bars. She has more depth to the team than in previous years, which consists of two veteran gymnasts Kathy Idelson and Jean Powers, and then eight freshmen with tons of enthusiasm.

Even though with a great number of freshmen, experience among the gymnasts is a strong quality of the team. Sharon Pillow has competed internationally in Nova Scotia, and Kathy Idelson also has competed internationally in Poland and qualified to go to the national tournament last year.

The season outlook is very optimistic with three definite allround gymnasts — Sharon Pillow, Kathy Idelson and Sheila Gould. But there are three others who are all-round possibilities — Margie Fanton, Karen Mazzonna and Margi Janje.-. Donna Banger specializes in floor and vaulting,

Jean Powers in bars and vaulting, Robbie Hanger in beam and floor, and Barbara Jolly in vaulting.

Coach Ruth Budd is excited about the season and really impressed with the determination that the team has shown. She is sure all their hard work will pay off when it comes time for their first meet.

Spikers Win Division Title

By SUSAN TOWLER The Longwood Spikers have really put it together the past couple of weeks. Facing opponents such as U.Va., Lynchburg, Roanoke, and Mary Washington, and coming out with a Division III title, the Ixmgwood College volleyball team has something to be proud of.

On Tuesday, October 30, Ixmgwood travelled to Lynchburg to play both University of Virginia and Lynchburg College. Ixmgwood beat U.Va. with scores of 13-15, 15-6, and 15-12. Meg Cook served the 6-11 points in the second game with Robin Hungate, Cindy Thomas, and Madline Moose at the net. It was this trio, combined with Meg Cook's serves that won this game for Longwood. In the third game, Robin Hungate served the first five points with Meg Cook, Sherry Will, and Fran The LC Soccer team played Hampden-Sydney Sunday, with a Osmer at the net. This final score 0-1. Here Ken Gebbie eludes an aggressive H-SC opponent combination was successful as Ixmgwood took this game for the as he attempts to maneuver down the field.

On the same night, Ixmgwood

played Lynchburg College and lost with scores of 9-15,15-12, and 6-15. Even though Ixmgwood fought hard, they made one too many errors.

The next night, however.

Ixmgwood really got it together to squash Roanoke College at home with scores of 15-2 and 15-6. This match was an aggressive one and this was the key to Ixmgwood's victory. Serving the most points in the first game was Sherry Will.

Cindy Thomas and Meg Cook served the majority of the points in the second game. The spikers as a whole looked good in this match. Spirits were high and the players were confident in their game.

On the same night, Ixmgwood also played Mary Washington, a very important opponent.

Ixmgwood won with scores of 1614, 10-15, and 15-7. This victory put Ixmgwood's volleyball team

in first place in the East Conference for Division III. The first game was very close and could have gone either way. Good team play and determination brought Ixmgwood through to win this game 16-14. Madeline Moose served the 12-15 points for the win.

The second game was won

by Mary Washington with the score 15-10. Longwood had trouble putting their plays together in this game When the third game rolled around, Ixmgwood straightened up and beat Mary Washington 15-7 for the match and the Last Conference Division III title.

Golfers, Rider Claim Honors From Sports Information Junior Kay Smith (Covington) and freshman Robin Andrews (Woodlawn), who led the Ixmgwood women's golf team to the VAIAW state title, have been named Longwood College Players of the Week.

Andrews, one of the top high school golfers in Virginia a year ago, fired a 79-83 - 162 and Smith came through with an 81-78 - 159 to pace Ixmgwood's triumph in the state tournament at the 5,845 yard, par-72 Country Club of Staunton golf course. The Ix*dy Ixincers accumulated a two-day total of 676,29 strokes better than second place William & Mary.

Both Andrews and Smith won individual titles. In the one-day VAIAW State Open Tuesday, Andrews' 79 was tops, and Smith's two-day total of 159 was best among competitors in the VAIAW State team championship.

"Robin had an outstanding round," said Coach Barbara Smith in reference to Andrews' 79 in the State Open. "It rained for the entire 18 holes, which made the course play much longer than the 5,845 yards recorded.

'Robin has contributed to the

for the first 18 holes in a steady, heavy rain and a 78, best round of the entire field, for the second round on a very cold, windy day."

Smith is the year's first repeat selection for Player of the Week.

Grant Lectures (Continued from Page 2) strongly recommended by Grant, and was much of the reference for his lecture. He explained that there is no scientific approach to getting a job. Many college graduates and young people do not know exactly what they are looking for in a job and many companies do not know what they are looking for in an employee.

He explained that the interview is not generally a pleasant

experience because it is a "screening out" process. High grades are not always the basis for hiring; motivation is an important factor.

"The perfect job does not exist," explained Grant. Many people experience a lot of frustration, especially in their first jobs. A person may or may not be in a job that is correlated with their major. Some people have to start in lower positions than they desire and work their way towards a position they

want. The important thing is to start to work in an area that you really enjoy.

Grant concluded his speech by encouraging sophomores and juniors to begin thinking about the jobs they want and doing "research" in how to go about getting them. He strongly suggests using the placement office and the advice from any sources that may be available such as parents or friends.

Men's Basketball (Continued from Page 6) "Bashketball" during last season. Basketball is a ballcontrol offense which depends on a tough aggressive defense.

"We hope to pressure the opposition while also wearing them down," the coach explained. "Defense is the key to easy buckets. The team has displayed high intensity and great defense which will be a big key in a successful season."

Defense will be a factor in the season, but rebounding may provide a bigger challenge to the lancers. Bash hopes to be able to use the depth of the I^ancer squad to supplement his rebounding corps. Lee Alston, Kenny Ford and Randy Johnson return to solidify the front line, but look for freshmen Barrin Lewis and transfer Mike Owens to see a lot of action.

An Art major at I-ongwood, Chambers participated in junior varsity field hockey last year before turning her talents to riding. She enjoys art, playing the guitar, singing and working with ceramics in her spare time.

How are you? I'm fine, and the doctor says I'll feel even better when I get a few days' rest and a couple of home-cooked meals. But with the condition of my wallet, it looks like I'll have to hitchhike home for the holidays.

My roommate just made plans to go home with Greyhound and says Greyhound is a great way to fight inflation because their fares are so reasonable.

Greyhound even makes it possible for someone to prepay a ticket in one place so someone at another place can Just pick up the ticket and come home. You can even send along a small cash advance with the ticket. Greyhound will take care of everything for just a small fee. Boy - is my roommate lucky.

Well I have to run to pick up some more of that expensive medicine. I miss you all very much and hope to be home next weekend.

Love and kisses,

GO GREYHOUND
