Hanby Legacy Lives
By Bernadine Edwards
A book with an all-Otterbein cast was selected, out of 70 nominations by the Ohio Historical Society, as the best family history book in the state.
"Choose You This Day," the dramatic story of the Hanby family legacy, was written by Dacia Custer Shoemaker, Otterbein class of 1895. The book was researched, edited and published by Dr. Harold Hancock, chairman of the history department, and Dr. Millard J. Miller, college pastor for 22 years. The book tells the story of the Hanby father and son who were both crusading ministers of the United Brethren Church. Bishop William Hanby, the father, was the cofounder of Otterbein College and Beniamin, his son, wrote "Darling Nellie Dr. Hancock. Grey''in the pre-Civil War days when he was a student at Otterbein. Al In 1926, the Hanby House faced though he died at 33, Benjamin com destruction.

Greek alumni reunite
Homecoming: the time of year when old friends get together and reminisce about the good old days. During the past Homecoming Weekend much talk of the "good old days" was going on at the Country Club, Jonda and PiSig houses.
The 75th anniversary of Pi Kappa Phi fraternity (Country Club) drew over 200 alumni, with one travelling from Nicaragua to attend the event. Scott Duffy, president of the active chapter, stated preparation for this reunion began with the alumni fund raiser in June, and continued with the active's planning beginning in September.
The work culminated with the actives on Homecoming Day. After registering, the alumni marched in the parade, attended a cookout luncheon in Club's backyard, and went to the football game. They then proceeded to the Little Turtle Country Club for a dinner banquet.
The alumni chapter totals 700. Duffy cited the fact that the alumni is a diverse group, with many in the professional fields and about 10 multimillionaires, to dispel what he called the stereotype of Clubbers. He added, "In the past decade and a half, the house and members were sort of on a downslope. At this reunion.- a lot of alumni were pleased with the attitude in the house. They couldn't believe the overall improvement in the house and members."
Duffy felt the anniversary went well. "Everyone got along really well. They (the alumni) have a lot of pride in being Clubbers."
Eta Phi Mu. J onda, are celebrating 60 years of brotherhood this year. In
order to commemorate the event, the current members held an alumni dinner Saturday.
Between 45-50 alumni returned for the occasion. William Myers, a graduate of 1926, was the oldest returning alumnus, according to Ben Richmond, president of the active chapter. Jim Puglese a 1980 graduate and former president of Jonda, traveled from Texas to take part in the celebration.
Jonda held an open house in the afternoon. Current members have recently purchased new carpet and furniture. The Alumni plan to work on the house, according to Richmond.
Richmond added, "Things went exceptionally well and the alumni were impressed with the chapter. We have a good relationship with the alumni and we hope to work even closer with them in the future."
Pi Beta Sigma. celebrated its 75th anniversary homecoming weekend.
Approximately 50 alumni marched with the active chapter in Saturday's homecoming parade.
Following the parade both the alumni and active chapter met at the house. Over $3,000 in donations were received for house improvements. These donations were given by the active chapter, adviser John Ludlum and the alumni chapter. One alumnus from Texas made a $1,000 donation. They also decided to give a $1,200 scholarship awarded on the basis of achievement and need.
Nearly 100 PiSig alumni and actives attended an awards banquet Saturday night at the Quality Inn.

80 ber views on lssue1, O.C. students respond
Election day is fast approaching so we decided to provide you with an early election return on one of the issues. Issue I which will appear on the November 8 ballot, is concerned with changing the legal drinking age in Ohio for all liquor from 19 to 2 l. We asked several students to respond on how they planned to vote on this issue and why.

Nuclear issues mushroom
For those of you who have been under a rock for the past few days, let us tell you now that the campus has been a focal point for a discussion of the nuclear arms issue. Yesterday, several events drew large crowds of students, faculty and staff. The most interesting of these, from our viewpoint, was the two-hour program in the Campus Center last evening which presented in counterpoint arguments for and against a nuclear freeze.
Let us remind you that the symposium continues today, with a full program of events lasting until 10 p.m. (see below).
We would also hope that the symposium doesn't end tonight, but that the events of the past few days initiate serious thinking and discussion for weeks to come.
Toward that end, the T &C staff will be devoting a section of next week's paper to a review of the symposium. One of our features will be a presentation of your views of the symposium's merits-much like the column on this 'page devoted to the drinking age ballot issue.
Please help us out-we solicit whatever comment you may have on the symposium. Please write a brief letter (200 words or less) and drop it in our mailbox outside of T-302. We will print as much of each response and as many responses as space permits.

Otterbein develops sexual harrassment policy
By Dave Kimmel
You are a typical student, classes are going nicely and you finally feel like you're becoming used to college, when an instructor, in a class vital to your major, begins making sexual advances toward you and hinting that your grade will depend upon your cooperation. What do you do? Who can you ask?

Otterbein band, a growing tradition
By Dave Williams
From an obscure beginning in 1852, music at Otterbein has grown to include this year's 150-member marching band.
It was in 1852 that the then Otterbein University received its first piano. Music instruction then followed and a band performed at the first commencement in 1857. Somewhere between 1852 and 1857 the first band was started at Otterbein.
Otterhein drum section
From those early years, the marching band has grown to include the O-squad, flag corps and color guard.
According to director Gary Tirey, "The O-squad was added to the band in the early 70s. Otterbein was one of the first schools to use a flag corp."
Tirey added that the use of a color guard serves a dual role of"presenting the national colors and performing with the band."
Tirey said the band has reached the point where it can use "integrated
showmanship." This he explains, "allows each group to be displayed out front at separate times. The entrance," he added, "is designed to feature all of the groups."
Aside from playing at Otterbein sports events, the marching and concert bands perform in a host of other activities. These include a tour in Canada and an invitation to play at the Ohio Theater for the Mayors awards for volunteer service.
In total, Tirey estimates the band plays to 100,000 people a year. This serves as quite a recruiting device.
One example of this recruiting is found with senior Ron Jones. Jones recalls the personal contacts Tirey made with him while he was in high school. Jones claims that, "If it were not for Mr. Tirey, I would not be at Otterbein. He attracts a lot of students to the school."
For others the band has had less effect but is still fun. Senior C reg Speyer never played an instrument until his sophomore year at Otterbein when "some friends talked me into playing the base drum." Speyer said, "It's a lot of work, but I like it. It's a chance to get together and see people." He added, "Band tour is always good to look forward to."
From the freshman point of view, Carrie Logsdon commented, "It's really exciting to be in a quality band, since I came from a high school band of only 80 people." Her impressions are that the band is both"exciting and rewarding."
c2 John Thatcher, sophomore drum major, can also attest to the recruiting powers of Tirey and the marching band.
"I was involved in the summer 'Moffitt Clinic' at Otterbein for two years prior to graduating from high school," said Thatcher. In searching
Fall flicks premiere
By Bill Harnsberger
The barrage of fall films has begun, although no heavy Oscar contenders are among them yet. Three movies released within the past two weeks range from the fantastic to the fantastically dull.
'Brainstorm', director Douglas Trumbull's latest film, features Natalie Wood in her final performance and eye popping special effects in 70 mm. The plot centers around a device used to record a person's thoughts and emotions, which can then be experienced by another person. Wood, Christopher Walken and Louise Fletcher star as the scientistis responsible for the device. Much of the first half of the movie focuses on describing and demonstrating the device, but the second half makes up for it. Fletcher has a massive heart attack in her lab and, being a devoted scientist, records her own death.
The film then follows Walken's desperate attempt to find and play the tape and experience Fletcher's death. He does, and the audience is taken beyond the limits of life in a barrage of mesmerizing, often startling, images and sounds. James Homer's score helps lead the audience into this visually fantastic movie featuring fine performances and interesting concepts of the after-life.
'Never Say Never Again,' which finds a middle aged James Bond back in action, has everything a 007 flick ought to have except excitement. Sean Connery fits elegantly back into his tux for the first time since 1971, and gives a realistic, laid back performance, contrary to Roger Moore's I'll do anything for a laugh' image.
However, director Irvin (The Empire Strikes Back) Kirshner builds very little excitement into the film. We don't get sweaty palms during the motorcycle chases or the shark attacks or the gun battles. The supporting performances by Edward Fox, Max von Sydow and Kim Basinger are superb, the plot is quite apparent and everything looks nice, but the movie is rather void of excitement and tension. Still, it's a big improvement over last summer's silly 'Octopussy.'
Finally, 'The Final Option' spends an hour and 15 minutes hopelessly trying to show the events preceeding a terrorist takeover of the British Foreign Minister's residence in England. Only then does the bloody 'final option' emerge as anti-terrorist commandos storm the residence. The outcome of the movie is too obvious. and the film itself looks cheap and rushed. I wish I'd taken the option to miss this one. You will too. See ya next week.
John Thatcher, drum major for colleges, Thatcher said he was looking for a school with a marching band. He was surprised when he found he was named as one of the drum majors his freshman year. Thatcher follows a "Big IO" style of drum major with the showmanship and baton twirling while Don Welsh, the other sophomore drum major, "conducts the band."
Thatcher can see that "both Tirey and Don Wolfe, assistant band director, put in a lot of work and get a lot in return from the students."
One of the biggest additions to this year's band is the new uniforms. Tirey reports that they have recieved a little over $36,000 of the projected $40,000 needed for new uniforms. He also stated that on the advice of Frank Fite, vice president of development and public relations, the band will not use the McDonald's coupon campaign again. The campaign which started last year gained $2,000 but cost the school $900 plus many man hours.
Reviewer finds 'Deathtrap' authentic, frightening
By Tami Lange
Plays do not frighten me - normally. After all, a play is just actors on a stage, isn't it?
This was the attitude I assumed as I took my seat in the Cowan Hall for the opening night of the Otterbein College Theater production of "Deathtrap."
Why was it then by the end of act one, I was praying that the lights would come up? Just because by that time I thought three of the characters had been murdered, and not in a very attractive fashion. Thanks to a terrific script and very believable staging I was ready to get out into the brighter lights of the lobby.
Workshops in arena
By Tami Lange
Three senior theater majors will assume director's duties as the theater department opens its season of workshop productions.
These productions, which are performed in the campus center's arena theater will each have two stagings. The first of the three is "Domino Courts", directed by Carol Giffen. The cast is composed of freshmen Dia Huekler and Liana Peters and sophomores Gary Scott and Craig Summers. The show makes its first staging Thursday at 4 p.m.
Roger Tackette will direct "Line" on Friday at 4 p.m. He has selected these actors as his cast: freshmen Catherine Randazzo and John Fisher, junior Jim Fippin, and seniors Charlie Daruda and Mike Shoaf.
"Where are you Going, Hollis Jay?" was selected by Elaine Poole as her directing project. Both cast members Maria Magisano and Roy Woods are freshmen. They will debut Sunday at 6 p.m.
All the productions will be restaged on Wednesday, Oct. 26 at 6:30. The shows are free to the public.

Of course, it takes quite a lot to make a script into a good show. Many factors added to the play's appeal. First the set and the props. Sidney Bruhl's Connecticut study was quite authentic looking with its old fashioned beams and fireplace. The weapons in Bruhl's collection were truly fascinating to look at. Fortunately they detracted from the show posters on the wall, which were not quite as breathtaking.
The lighting and sound effects achieved their goal - to add to the eerieness of a nighttime thunderstorm without letting us lose the jist of what was going on.
"Deathtrap" had a relatively small cast of five. This, in a way, was good in that not only did it allow each character to contribute to the ensemble, but also make a lasting impression.
Brent Erdy was quite frightening as playwright Sidney Bruh!, a man who would literally "kill" to have one more hit play. His energetic, if at times stylized performance left the audience with mixed emotions - disgust with a man who planned his wife's murder yet sympathy for a man who was used in order to get a story line for a Broadway play. The last gruesome appearance of Sidney, slumped dead (and open-eyed) at his desk was absolutely show stopping.
Also taking part in the bloody finale was Craig Icsman as novice playwright Clifford Anderson. Icsman has the wonderful knack of being able to look imposing and yet boyish and innocent at the same time. Sometimes, his innocence was unbelievable, but he easily made up for it with several intense moments. His bloody trip down the study stairs sent gasps through the audience.
Sidney's wife, Myra, as portrayed by Carol Giffen, was truly deserving of the audience's sympathy.
She gave a fine performance, beginning as a happy wife, and ending by being literally "scared to death."

Soccer team shows class in loss to OWU
By Scott Cavanagh
The Otterbein soccer team displayed some of their best and worst play last week, as they went 1-2 with a victory over Muskingum and losses to Capital and Ohio Wesleyan.
Oespite the victory at Muskingum, coach Steve Locker described his team's performance as "Up and down and not a great game by any means."
The Cardinals started this game in fine fashion, racing to a 2-0 lead. U nfortunately, they were unable to hold the lead and three Muskie goals gave them the lead 3-2. A goal by Jim Ebright, his second of the game, tied the score at 3-3. The score remained tied until late in the second half when Roberto Quiroga scored on a pass from Dan Morris to put the Cardinals ahead to stay 4-3.
The Capital game on Saturday did not have as many bright spots. The Crusaders scored three times in the first ten minutes of play, as the Cardinals failed to find any rhythm to their game.
Tempers were flying throughout the game. One incident in the second half nearly resulted in a fight between the two teams, and the entire Otterbein team was penalized. Locker believes the officials simply "let the game get out of hand, and they tried to change that situation by penalizing us."
Although the team did settle down later in the contest, Locker said that the Capital game was his team's "worst performance of the year." The Cardinals lone bright spot was a goal by Ebright, his eighth of the season.
Monday, the team faced the Battling Bishops of Ohio Wesleyan, the fifth ranked Division 111 school in the nation.
This Cardinal team hardly resembled the team that had lost to Capital. The Cardinal s played a
nearly perfect first half, allowing
Wesleyan only one goal to end the half trailing 1-0.
In the second half, the greater experience and depth of the OWU s4uad became evident, as they continually pressured the Cardinal defense, scoring five times for a 6-0 victory.
Locker felt that this game was his team's best performance of the year.
"This was the hardest, most aggressive soccer we've played so far," said Locker. "Despite the score, I am really not disappointed. I felt good about the way we played, some of our players had their best performances thus far."
Locker was especially happy with the play of junior Tunji Renner, who Locker said, "Played a higher level of soccer than I had seen him play before." Locker was also impressed with the play of goal keeper Alvin Lugo. The team will next see action October 26 as they travel to Marietta.

Homecoming victory: Cards trounce Wesleyan
By Bob Bland
The Otterbein Cardinals racked up 364 yards in total offense and tallied eight scores enroute to a 48-29 comefrom-behind romp Over Ohio Wesleyan Saturday.
At first it seemed to be another one of those days when everything was going wrong for the Cards. The Bishops jumped out to an early 14-0 lead and were looking strong. But as Murphy's Law states, "If anything can go wrong, it will." It was about to happen to OWU.
The Cards finally got it going in the second quarter when Dave Chilcole Fast • Free• Delivery

hit a 47 yard field goal to cut the OWU lead. It took the Cards only two minutes to score again. Following Steve McConaghy's interception, Chris White hit Bryan Valentine with a 41-yard strike to help set up Rick Burdette's I-yard TD run. Chilcote then added another field goal and White hit Valentine again, this time for a 71 yard gain as the Cards led for the first time 21-14. The Bishops then drove 73 yards in 6 plays to tie it at the half, 21-21.
The second half belonged to the Otters as they opened up the scoring on Burdette's second TD of the day. On their next posession. White threw it up again, this time to Jeff Clark and OC led 35-21. Dave Skrobot's Iyard run made it 42-21 in the fourth quarter. This was followed by another scoring drive topped off by a 25yard run by Chris Roach. The two scores were sandwiched around an OWU touchdown to make the final score 48-29.
Coach Rich Seils said he was pleased with the homecoming win. "Just about everything happened in this game. It was a good one for the spectators," said Seils. However, what Seils wasn't pleased with was the sloppiness the Cardinals showed, especially the 15 penalties for 158 yards.
Offensively the Cards were led by Chris White's 194 yards passing and the rushing attack ( 170 yards) led by Rick Goodrich's 49 yards. After a shakey first half, the Cardinal defense got it in gear. Led by Gary Ubry and Craig Brenneman, the Cards recorded 7 sacks, resulting in a loss of 83 yards for the Bishops. The secondary, led by McConaghy and Scott Hill picked off 3 Bishop passes.
This week OC travels to Springfield, Ohio for a key game with Wittenberg University. A win would put the Cardinals in the thick of the OAC blue division race. A loss would kill anyOC chance of a divisional crown. Wittenberg (5-0, 5-1) is coming off a 14-7 win against Denison last week. They are led by senior quarterback Dave Tobias who runs and throws very well. "They are not big, but they are very strong and quick," said Seils. "Defensively they are very well disciplined."
Wittenberg won last year's game 42-6 and leads the series 29-9-3 going back to the first game in 1892. Their only loss this season came to the hands of Division II Butler University.
