.Jonda, Owls take top honors in Greek Week competition
By Kaye Stith
The overall winners of Greek Week activities were Sigma Alpha Tau and Eta Phi Mu. During the week of April I 9-26, they scored the most points for participation in seven social, educat10nal, and civic functions at Otterbein.
Greek Week was a time set aside for Greeks to develop a strong sense of unity and pride in the system, while the newly-elected officers became acquainted with their responsibilities. The events throughout the week were designed to promote Greek life and offer competition and interaction between sororities and fraternities.
Wednesday, April 21, the Campus Center housed the Greek Blood Drive. Lambda Gamma Epsilon and Kappa Phi Omega were awarded for giving the most time and blood. The blood drive was open to all students and staff members.
Wednesday and Thursday, April 21 and 22 from 7-10 p.m., there were leadership workshops that centered on the topics of motivation, rush programs, pledge education, legal responsibilities of leadership and Greek unity. These discussions added to leadership positions in all forms of business.

Upcoming Artist Series to be cultural, entertaining
By Kathy Arledge
"The Artist Series has scheduled six impressive events for the upcoming year promising cultural entertainment," says Barbara Jackson, director of Public Relations at Otterbein.
The events, as they will be appearing are the Scola Canto rum of Oxford, a choral ensemble; the Preservation Hall Jazz Band; concert pianist Barbara Nissman; Boris Goldovsky, founder of the Goldovsky Grand
Opera Theater; the Footpath Dance Company, a humanist dance company; and the actor William Windom.
The Scola Cantorum of Oxford will appear September 23. This 40-voice choir is widely regarded as one of Europe's finest choral ensembles. It was founded at Oxford University in 1960 and has performed at Westminster Abbey, the Academy of St. Martin-in-the Fields, and broadcasts over the BBC.
On October 27, a living tradition visits Otterbein. The Preservation Hall Jazz Band from New Orleans promises to bring vitality through their own unique jazz. Most of the Preservation Hall band members have played this music for more than 50 years. While their music may be from a past era, it attracts enthusiastic fans of all ages.
Barbara Nissman, a world-known concert pianist who tours both Europe and America, will perform November 10. She has appeared with Arthur Fiedler and the Boston Pops, the Philadelphia Orchestra, the Royal Philharmonic, the London Philharmonic, and many more symphonies. Nissman's performance will include a world premier piece, written by the Argentinian composer, Alberto Gioastera. She will be teaching a master class at Otterbein as well.
forming Opera-in-English for more than a quarter of a century. While at Otterbein, they will present Goldovsky's Opera Highlights, which is in its second season.
Goldovsky was the master of ceremonies for some twenty-five years at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York City. He has lectured in the Grace Rainey Rogers Auditorium at the Museum of Art and is featured on at least fifteen opera evenings a year.
On April 7, the Footpath Dance Company will perform. This company is completing its fifth year as a professional dance touring company and as a school of contemporary dance. Footpath is a humanistic dance company, and their dance expresses a wide range of emotions.
Footpath's six-member company has performed in 11 states as well as Canada. This will be their first visit to Columbus. The company will also be teaching a master class in dance.
Veteran screen and stage actor William Windom will be performing in his one-man show, "Thurber I", May 11. Windom is probably best known for his Emmy Award-winning role in the 1969-70 series, "My World and Welcome to It." This series was based on the work of James Thurber.
