The Tan & Cardinal would like to extend our congratulations to all women who have finally completed sorority rush.
We trust that with preference signing behind us, all rushees made a well-thought-out decision about whether to join the Greek system and if so, what sorority to join.
As some women move from the status of rushee to pledge, we would like to take this opportunity to comment on what we feel is a serious issue within the Greek sorority system.
Competitiveness between sororities has been in existence for many years. Not only do sororities compete for pledges, but they also compete for the imaginary title of "the best sorority on campus."
Although each sorority offers something different, its members sometimes make the mistake of believing and implying that the other sororities have nothing to offer.
Pan-Hel has recognized the problem of competitiveness, and we support in full their steps in which to minimize this problem. For example, one change will be that pledge olympic teams will be comprised of members from each sorority instead of one sorority.
The T &C looks forward to seeing some positive results from this Pan-Hel move. We also hope that sorority members will be mature enough to respect each individuals choice as to where to join, and will take the opportunity this year to unify into a Greek system rather than five alienated units
We also hope that sorority members will realize that even though a rushee decided to join a different sorority or not to join the Greek system at all, there is no reason why her friendship cannot add to the enjoyment of college life
The purpose of the Otterbein students' newspaper, the Tan & Cardinal, is to convey relevent information to our readers who include traditional and ADP students, faculty , staff, administration, parents, and friends of Otterbein We are committed to do our best in covering the happenings of the campus through a beat system of reporting. We also depend on input from our readers as to events.
If you have strolled by the Campus Center office recently and have noticed a rather large trophy right inside the window , don't think for a second that it belongs to Otterbein.
The trophy was presented to Capital Universit y last fall at halftime of the Cap-Otter football game for winning th e Red Cross blood drive between the two schools. In last fall 's effort t o collect blood, Capital received 172 units compared t o an embarrassing 89 for Otterbein.
Now we have a chance to get even The posters have been up around campus for about a week telling us of the blood drive, agam sponsored by the Red Cross . The place is the Campu s Center, tomorrow between 10 a.m and 4 p.m. Sign-up will continue through lunch and dinner hours today.
The T &C is published weekly and distributed on campus Thursday morning and mailed to subscribers Friday
The T &C is under the direct governing of the Otterbein Publications Board, but is operated under the leadership of its own staff members and advisor.
The financing of the paper is a joint effort between the College and the T &C staff. The sale of advertisements and subscriptions constitutes about 40 percent of the T &C budget. The rest is allocated by Otterbein College.
To put some spice into this term's drive, the staff of the Tan & Cardinal challenges any other campus organization to give more on a percentage basis than those of the T &C, (this challenge is especially pointed to those of the WOBN staff, whose station manager, rumor has it, is afraid of the consequences of losing a pint of blood).
Let's show up Capital one more time: sign up to be siphoned!
Subscriptions are available at the cost of $10 for three terms. Information about discounts per frequency of ads is available upon request.
The T &C office is located at Towers 302 and the news / layout room is in Towers 301. The office will be open Monday- Friday from l p.m. to 3 p.m. The phone number is 890-3000, ext. 159.
The T &C prints letters to the editor on the Opinion Page. Letters should not exceed 250 words and must be signed. (Name may be withheld upon request.) The T &C reserves the right to edit letters for space, libel and obscenity.
Editorials that appear on the Opinion Page unsigned, reflect the view of the T &C staff as determined by the Editorial Board. Signed editorial represent the view of only the author.
The T &C staff is open to any sugges1'ons or comments from our readers. As stated earlier, our job is to convey information and we are commited to fulfilling that job.

When the clock strikes I a.m., most of us are just about to call it a day and catch some z's. For two Otterbein employees. however, I a.m. is just the beginning of an eight-hour work day.
Marion Hessin and Helena Hodgeden begin work at the Courtright Memorial Library at I a.m. each morning and finish around 9 a.m. The two share the janitorial duties in the library. Helena cleans the basement and first floor while Marion is responsible for the second and third floors.
said Helena.
Marion began work at Otterbein immediately after he moved to Westerville. Helena, however, has lived in the community for 36 years. "Westerville is a lot different now. lts gotten too big to know the people the way we used to. lt's really outgrown itself," said Helena.
Helena has no plans for changing jobs in the future. "I really enjoy my work and don't want to do anything different," said Helena.
"We enjoy working the night shift because you can get your work done when there aren't a lot of people around," they agreed.
Helena has worked at Otterbein for 18 years, but has only worked the library night shift for the past ten. "The library is the best building to work in because the people are all so nice," said Helena.
Marion has worked for 12 years at Otterbein and joined Helena at the library two and one-half years ago.
Marion Hessin
Working the night shift is no problem for Helena and her husband because he also begins his day early. "He goes to work around 4 a.m., so we are on fairly similar schedules," said Helena.
Helena Hodgeden
Both Helena and Marion are used to working in a big building at night, but admit to sometimes being a little frightened. "Sometimes l see my own reflection in the big windows on the first floor and think someone is there,"
Marion, however, may be retiring in July. "I really don't want to quit my job, but I'll be 70 in July and may be forced to retire. I don't really know yet," said Marion.
Both janitors commented that their job is really no different from the other janitors on campus. "We're just two of the gang. It takes all of us to keep the campus looking its best ," said Marion.
"I've worked the night shift in other buildings, but l like this building best. Towers used to creak a lot. but this building is very quiet," said Marion.
Both are responsible for the basic janitorial services of the library such as cleaning the tables and carrels, sweeping the floors and dusting the bookshelves. "Our work is pretty routine except if there is a lot of mud or salt tracked in during the day. Then our work is a little harder," said Henena.
Marion enjoys the inside work.

Labeled as the best regular season indoor meet in over four years, the Cardinal men dominated last Friday night's matchup with Findlay, Capital. Oberlin and Wooster.
The Cardinals won 11 of 14 events. qualified three individuals for next springs conference outdoor meet, and set a new Otterbein and Rike Center record.
For the second Friday in a row senior Mark Burns, outran his competition to record a new Otterbein and Rike Center mile record. Burns' time of 4: 14.5 snapped his own record in the mile of 4: 18. 7, set last year in the Indoor Conference Championships Burns' time also broke the seven-year-
old Rike Center record of 4: 14.8 set by Larry Coy of Baldwin Wallace. Two weeks ago, in the men's opening meet of the season, Burns broke the Otterbein Rike Center record in the 880yard run.
Jon Devine, Sheldon Robinson, and Scott Duncan, in the shot put, long jump, and pole vault, respectively. placed first in their events and qualified for the Outdoor Conference in May.
The only events the Cardinals didn't win outright were the 50-yard high hurdles, ( Mark Robinson, freshman, was in a three-way tie for the fastest time of 7.2) the600-yard run; and high jump.
First places taken by the Otters were: in the 4-Lao Re lav: I :15 7; Mile: Burns
4: 14.5; Shot put: Devine 46.6"; 440Yard Dash: Paul Hollerin; Longjump: S. Robinson 22'½"; 50- Yard Dash: S. Robinson 5. 7; Two Mile: Scott Alpeter 9:40.7; 1000-Meters: Kevin Chambers 2:30.6; Pole Vault: Duncan 13'6"; 300- Yard Dash: S. Robinson 34.0; Mile Relay: 3:43.4.
Head coach Porter Miller summarized the meet as a good team effort. "I was really impressed with their extra effort, for as long as I've been here I think it was our best indoor meet."
Miller emphasized the efforts of three runners in the meet. Sheldon Robinson, a four-event winner in the 300, long jump, 50, and the 4-lap relay in which he ran first leg for the Cardinals. Scott Alpeter, freshman,
was the first college runner over the finishing line in the two- mile run. Kevin Chambers, freshman. in his first collegiate indoor race recorded a victory in the I000-meter run.
The Cardinal's compete in their third home meet of the season this Friday night against Capital, Wittenberg, Baldwin Wallace, and Marietta, field events start at 7:00 p.m.
TRACK FACTS: Jim Smith, junior, the 1982 O.A.C. outdoors pole vault champion landed on his neck in last Friday's meet. Smith will miss tommorrow night's meet but will probably compete in next week's Ohio Wesleyan Relays.

Inconsistency still remains the key factor for the 1982-83 Otterbein basketball team, which last week beat Marietta Wednesday 78-67, and lost to Ohio Northern 82-71 at the Rike Center last Saturday.
As of Tuesday, Jan. 24, the Cards' record stood at 4-11 overall, and 2-3 in the conference.
Hartman injured his ankle during the Ohio Northern game, but could see action by this weekend.
"Ob is strong, jumps well and is aggressive. I thought he was beginning to pay well," said Reynolds. "He's been plagued with injuries all year." Earlier in the year, Hartman had a badly bruised arm.
At Marietta, the Cards fell behind early as the Pioneers scored four straight points. Otterbein bounced back with six points of their own and never looked back as they controlled the contest. "We like to play aggressive and not hesitate early," said coach Dick Reynolds. "When we do play aggressive early in the game, we can play with any team, as was the case against Wittenberg."
Another ball player improving daily is freshman Mike McKinney. Against Marietta, Mike scored 6 points and grabbed 9 rebounds. In the loss to Ohio Northern Mike scored 16 points while getting4 rebounds. "Mike is coming along fine, he's a good ball player," said Reynolds. "He plays intense and aggressive basketball."
During the Marietta game, the spotlight belonged to Ron Stewart who scored a career high of 48 points, one point shy of the Otterbein record held by Don Carlos during the 1966-67 season.
Ohio Northern came to the Rike Center with a perfect five and zero record on the road. They continued their perfection on the road with a 82-71 victory over the Cards.
The Polar Bears jumped out to an early 22-2 lead after only IO minutes. The Cards could not generate anything on offense. Otterbein had five turnovers within the first nine minutes of the first half. By the time the Cards got their offense together Ohio Northern had captured a 48-22 half-time lead.
Senior guard Ron Stewart gets past an Ohio Northern defender on the way to the hoop for two of his game high 38 points. The Cards dropped a 81- 72 decision to ONU.
Stewart made 20 of 33 shots from the floor for a blistering 61 percent, and 8 for 9 from the free-throw line. "I knew Ron had a chance at the record," said Reynolds, "and with the lead we had I told the guys to give him the ball. I thought he should get some type of reward (record for most points in one game) for playing outstanding ball for the past four seasons."
Stewart was not the only Card who played an outstanding game. Robert Hartman scored 12 points and hauled down 9 rebounds, both season highs.
"Ohio Northern was more physical than we were; they took us out of our offense early," said Reynolds. "Plus they shot the ball exceptionally well the whole game." Ohio Northern finished the game with 57 percent shooting from the floor.
Otterbein managed to make it an interesting ball game as ,the Cards rallied back to within nine points, but the experience of the Polar Bears
proved to be too much. Otterbein outscored Ohio Northern 49-34 in the second half. "Once we became more physical in the second half we made a ball game of it," said Reynolds. "The way the team fought back shows the characteristics of the kind of teams we've had throughout the years. Young, scrappy players are the types of individuals I like to have." Again Ron Stewart led all scorers with 38 points. Ron is now averaging 29.6 points ner game.
The Cards travel to Delaware Saturday to play Ohio Wesleyan. The Bishops are tied for second place in the conference with a 4-1 mark, 13-1 overall. Coach Reynolds considers Ohio Wesleyan to be one of the better teams in the conference. "Ohio Wesleyan is a young team which played together last year," said Reynolds. "They're much more mature and their kids are hungry to win."
