Requirements stiffened by new director Marcus

"The requirements needed to qualify for financial aid should be higher than the requirements for entering college itself," explains Mitchell Marcus, Otterbein's new director of financial aid.

Marcus feels · that the academic policy needs to be rewritten in order to set a certain minimum grade point average as criteria for receiving financial aid. Marcus expects the new policy to be more organized by the end of fall term.

to work on loosening up federal control on allocated monies leaving each institution freer to distribute more or less funds where it see fit.

Hired the last week of May, Marcus came to Otterbein from the University of South Dakota after answering a nationwide ad in the Chronical of Higher Education.

"Streamlining needs to be instated," says Marcus. "One of my current objections," he reflects, "is the fragmentation of the application process. As it now stands, unnecessary new student delays, are ·all too frequent."

Marcus does not have the freedom to revise any policy single-handedly. He is part of a financial advisory committee, which also can act only under the tight reign of the federal government. A personal goal, says Marcus, is

Marcus received a bachelor's degree at Florida State University and an associate's degree at Santa Fe Junior College. Marcus's first job at Florida A&M, was student advisor.

"Otterbein has been very accepting," concludes Marcus. "The transition has been easy."

Marcus is concerned withed ucating the students to their own financial situations, which will contribute in making the process run more smoothly. Marcus encourages students feel free to stop in and ask questions.

The Financial Aid Office is located in the lower level of the Administration Building.

Otterbein student tapped for area leadership program

Loretta Parimuha, a junior ADP student majoring in business administration, has been selected to participate in the Columbus Area Leadership Program.

25-27, at the Nationwide Training Center on Hi_gh St.

Sponsored in cooperation with the Columbus Area Chamber of Commerce, the program identifies potential leaders from diversified backgrounds and aids in their development for civic responsibility and leadership roles in the business community.

The ten month program involves training and interaction with established community leaders. lt begins with an orientation weekend, Sept.

"Columbus is our classroom," Parimuha savs. "We will meet at various locations in conjuncture with the program for the month."

Ninety percent of the applicants are selected by their employers- because they hold responsible positions and interact with the community The rest of the members submit their applications independently. The program is in its eighth year, with 74 in this year's class.

Parimuha was one of the members

who applied independently. "One of the factors for my selection. I feel, was the work I did with the Westerville Area Chamber of Commerce for a public relations course here at Otterbein." she explains. "From this effort. the first Small Business Administration Resource _ Center in Franklin county was established within the WACC office.

"This program will provide for me a network of community leaders in responsible positions within the business community," According to Parimuha, the program was developed

several years ago after a plane crash killed several civic leaders from the Atlanta area. The program will ensure that Columbus will never he without leadershop in the event of a similar emergency.

Parimuha advises students to use class assignments for outside projects and interviews to their advantage.

"Select your project with your future in mind," she says. "You will then be establishing your own network of people who share your interest."

Committee elects Miller chairperson

Election of new officers highlighted the Curriculum Committee's initial meeting, Monday , September 21. Gail Miller of Business Administration was selected as chairperson, and Duff Helvoigt of Education was chosen as secretary.

Other business covered included a review of the changes in the mathematics and lariguage task force. In Spring term, the Committee decided to divide the force into two separate units. Dean Donald Bulthaup will head the mathematics division, and Roger Neff will lead the foreign language division. A report on their findings concerning changes needed in course requirements will be forthcoming later this year.

A procedure whereby departments will review their own course offerings and consult with other departments and outside sources about possible needs for change was also adopted by the Committee under the direction of William Hamilton, acting dean of faculty.

" Food-we're ·losing patience

Last week we reported that several changes were to be made by the new food service-Custom Catering-now we're be ginning to wonder if we could do without some of the changes we didn't report

I REMEMBER I PUT THE SILVERWARE RIGHT HEREON MY TRAY BUT NOW THEY GONE'RE

For the past two weeks, the students of Otterbein have patiently given Custom an honest chance to prove itself. After some of the problems which we experienced last year, we hoped that a change would be for the better. Obviously, so far, that has not been the case.

In the past, however, this publication has blasted the previous food service in general and · not mentione d specific points of concern. Therefore, we feel it is important to note specific areas and not discuss simply the generally low quality of food we have been receiving (although we easily could).

KEEP LOOKING , I 'tA SURETHEY 'rzc JUST SOMEWHERE AMONG '

First, on what seems to a growing list of complaints was the cleanliness of silverware (and to a lesser extent, glasses) on the evening of September 22. Perhaps this was an isolated incidentwe certainly don't want to see it repeated. Since, according to Woodrow Macke, vice president of Business Affairs, the new service was hired due to sanitation problems last year, we suggest they pay special attention to such areas. For example, we hope in the future Custom will make sure the silverware is clean before they set it out for student use.

Secondly, we question the nutritional value of such "meals" served Monday. A pork chop with no other side dish other than overcooked vegetables can hardly be termed a full dinner. We wonder if the word "potato" needs to be mentioned more often.

"Name the Column" and Win

Here we also question the planning of questionable selections (classified as ones which are not commonly accepted as items which most people eat) all on the same evening. An excellent exa mpl e was last Tuesday evening when the three choices were: roa st bee f (either undercooked or greenish), Chinese pepper steak and Rigatoni If a poll was taken we believe that many student s would find all three choices objectionable Peanut butte r and jelly and cereal begins to get old on such evenings. We hav e no qualms about the scheduling of "different" dishes-But perhaps an "old standy-by" needs to be available on such nights as well (we do not term a salad as an old standy-by).

Other complaints about the food specifically include: runny salad dressings, the lack of salads in the Roost, the Rigatoni, the fruit drinks (which have been compared to liquified Sweet Tarts) and others

Finally, we need to mention' some of the concerns dealing with service to students and student groups. A recent example was the Saturday even ing dance sponsored by the Campus Programming board. The group had requested three large serving bowls for snacks whic h was promised, then not delivered by Custom. A minor point perhaps, but the inconvenience to the group was extensive.

Probably more serious was · the institution of a policy of charging a $25 deposit for water coolers. At the Ohio Wesleyan football game with temperatures in the 80's and humidity levels above that, the 165 member marching band (clothed in wool uniforms) was informed of the policy. They received one water cooler from the service. Two individuals lost consciousness following the halftime performance due to the heat and the band has consequently purchased its own water coolers. While we do not hold Custom responsible for the events at the football, game, , they certainly could have informed groups such as the band of any change in policy. The previous food service, Hallmark did not charge for providing the coolers.

We hope that by pointing out specific areas of concern which have been expressed and felt by either the entire or individual parts of the student body we can improve relations with Custom.

We feel confident that if you have any more concerns and if you agree with the ones noted here, Chuck Porter, director of the new food service would welcome hearing them.

senators was attributed to lack of student interest.

The senate is made up of administration, faculty and students. The senate acts as a legislative body in establishing academic standards, policies for admission, retention, curriculum and graduation of students. The senate also makes decisions on policies affecting student welfare and social activities.

) Within the structure of the senate there are ten standing committees. These committees deal with specific issues and include the Judicial Council, which deals with complaints 1concerning infractions of the college rules; the Traffic Council, which. handles violations of the college's motor vehicle rules; and the Appeals Council, which has final authority to deal with infractions of college regulations. A detailed list of the standing committes can be found in the college ByLaws.

Also in academic 1980-81 there were 21 administrative senators including the president of the college, the vice president for academic affairs and the vice president of student affairs. A detailed list of administrative senators can also be found in the college By-Laws.

On Monday of the eighth week of winter term every eligible student and faculty member will be sent information explaining how to become a candidate for the senate.

Band members work long, hard to shine at halftime

While a majority of Otterbein students were still enjoying the summer, others were already on campus for various reasons. One of these groups was the marching band.

The band, flag corps and O-squad spent the week before classes started learning the pre-game and half-time shows for the game on September 12.

Band director Gary Tirey says, "The reason we have band camp is so that we don't have to work so hard during the week the rest of the season."

On spring break, the band will tour western and northern Ohio. Toledo and Chicago. Last year the band toured the Dayton and Cincinnati areas. Other performances by the band will be the marching band concert on October 25 with the Men's Glee Club, the concert band on April 4 and the concert band and wind ensemble on May 26.

The band averaged six hours a day of marching and playing.

Tirey is enthusiastic about this year's band. Including the flag corps and O-squad, there are 160 members. Sixty are freshmen. Tirey says that there are colleges larger than Otterbein that have smaller marching bands.

Tirey also feels the balance of the band is better than it has ever been. This is due to the number of freshmen players.

Campus Center projector

A part of Xanadu can now be found at Otterbein

On December 6 the band will do the pre-game and half-time shows for the Cincinnati Bengals against the San Francisco 49'ers.

"It is exciting to get invited to a pro game because we're not a large school," Tirey commented.

The new 7-foot. Zenith TV screen and projector in the Campus Center was first used at Xanadu's, a bar in Akron, Ohio. The equipment, valued at $2200, was donated by Dave Waters, a previous manager of Xanadu's and brother of sophomore Tom Waters. Bob Gatti, Director of Campus Center Activities, said Waters offered to give the screen and projector to Otterbein after reading an article in the T &C last spring about CPB's plant sale to raise money for video equipment. The screen and projector will be used mainly for evening programs throughout the year such as Monday Night Football, movies, and other specials programmed by CPB.

Summer Theater Brings Life To Comedy, Drama

Du ring the past summe r, the Otterbein Summer Theater Co mpany presented six shows within a seven week pe riod. The follow ing is part two of Les Eps t ein's review of t h e summer theater program

Rainbow Dancing

Throughout the vast his tory of the world and its theatre, m a ny playwrights have come and go ne. Many have left a hard mark upon the theatre while others were never eve n g iven the slightest opportunity to scra tch th e surface.

It was indeed a pleasure to see a small company as OST to take on the challenge of presenting a script unknown to all.

For every writer thoug h , there is a different attitude formed p ri or to th e debut of this work. Oscar W ilde's cla ssic comedy, The Importance of Be in g Earnst , made its debut in Lo nd o n in 1898. With only a day left until the premier of this play , Wilde wa s questioned by an-onlooker as to w hether or not his play would succee d "My dear fellow," replied the droll E nglishman, "The play is already a s ucc e ss , the question is whether the a udience will s u cceed." Certainly n o t every ind ividua l who dabbles in th e writing of d ra m atic literature can h ave the same attitude, a nd Wi lde was indeed an ind ivi du al.

Finally , the season ventured to its final production, Agatha Christie' s Murder a1 the Vicarage. It was a murder spoo1 , that the writer Christie gave u s. For though it is a play of suspense, it is a play of comedy and perhaps even farce. It was a play of "who dunit", and it was up to a confused audience to decide who the correct shyster was Indeed there were not a great many who correctly solved the case, thus a dear, fine lady, Miss Marple (a Christie regular in her novels) took the task of solving the harbored case. And when it was all finished, the villain was arrested and torn away by justice. It was fortunate for now the audience was allowed to drive home knowingly that they would be able to sleep safely from here on after.

Chapter Two

The past s u mmer, a n ew play Rainbow Da n ci ng was featu re d in the third slot. T h oug h performe d o nce at the P laye r s T h ea t re of Co lumbus, the play ac tu ally made its sec ond debut t h is s um mer.

Hopefully, h e will retu rn to the dictionary and a rusty o ld ty p e writer and once more work on t h e d e pth of the script.

be attracted if a play or a musical has been a major success in the past. For in their hearts once a s,uccess always a success. Always a success, right?

Wrong! I've seen many a classic show flop in a revival production, for the work begins with the staging of the play by the director and designers and not any time prior.

E Experimental Theatre always stands to be a risk for a theatre company, especially for a company not known for delving into experimental work

Fortune left its mark though, for the production was indeed divine, and was met with a successful audience Round two for Rainbow did succeed. Thus Mr. Gracyk should continue to work on Rainbow Dancing, and perhaps in its next production it will have acquired its needed improvements. Here's to the birth of a new piece of theatre

the script for being too much of an autobiography. (The play centers around the death of Simon's first wife and his courtship to his second, actress Marsha Mason). Of course many great playwrights have written about their expenences with family and such; just ask Eugene O'Neill (Long Day's Journey into Night) and Arthur Miller (The American Clock) and they will reply, "Yep!'' Thus let us not slam Mr. Simon for his effort. I will admit though, that when I first read the play over a year ago, l was a tidbit skeptical about its value. But after seeing OS T's production, which stood to be the highlight of the season, l quickly learned that the play was a work of genius and that Neil Simon is no push-over.

It was indeed a divine choice to dabble in mystery and suspense for a final production; for now our company gave us a gloomy world of murder and fear, and were still able to warm our hearts with needed comedy Though only a few. were able to be crowned as sleuthes, I'm sure that it just didn't matter. Besides, I couldn't decide, and eventually picked the wrong character. Perhaps my choice should have been thrown in jail for impersonating a murderer and confusing a patron. Justice must prevail.

Chapter Two

During the late l 950's, when television had a little more quality in its writing and not in its picture, there emerged a young comic writer from New York City, by the name of Neil Simon It took only a brief period of time before Mr. Simon throned himself as one of the top writers of comic television as he penned for such greats as Phil Silvers, Gary Moore, and Cid Caeser. But better yet in 1961, the year of my birth and Roger Maris' homerun record, Simon's first broad-

Those who made their residency as company members of OST this past season substantially proved that not only is it possible to produce six shows in seven weeks time, but that it is possible to produce six good shows in seven weeks time And furthermore, when a theatre company begins to create good strong drama, music, and comedy, then do those walks of life come forth. Then and only then is a creation of Shakespeare's dramatic world transposed to a stage Heavens with so much of life transposed into one season; Good gravey, maybe Shakespeare was right, all the world is a stage, but its actors, directors, technicians, and writers, merely people.

Unlike the high school toddlers who are thrilled to death about staying up late, I was ecstatic over the fact that a rock and roll legend would soon appear before my very eyes. The band that is receiving my babbling praise a nd noteworthy admiration is the Kinks, and earned it they did, when they presented their sold out show to • Veterans Memorial Monday night.

to add upon their repetoire. Their set was dominated by their earlier hits, which was fine with me, since I was hoping to hear them, for memory's-sake. However, the Kinks gave a good representation of their new album, by sprinkling most of them through their two hour set.

favorites; however, I tend to believe that the mass majority of kiddies would have given the same enthusiastic response if AC / DC did "Superman."

well, drummer Mike Avory kept a steady backbeat, and keyboardist Ian Gibbons seemed unfortunately hidden away in a corner.

Finally taking the stage, the Kinks jumped immediately into "On the Dial" from their latest album "Give The People What They Want." Lead ssinger Ray Davies was ready to go, proven · by his sarcastic sneer and nonstopping feet, as he poured his golden energy upon the audience. Since the Kinks are beginning their third decade in the music industry, they have a wide assortment of songs

One characteristic which has spawned my admiration for the Kinks is their ' songwriting, headed by Ray Davies. Their songs are like little time capsules which reflect certain issues that dominated society in that time, such as "Gallon of Gas," "20th Century Man ," and "Celluloid Heroes."

Also, many of the songs contain a sarcastic sense of humor, such as "Low Budget," "Pressure," and "Superman."

Ray Davies has been categorized as one of the best showmen of all time. I heartily agree. From the start of the show to the very end, Ray Davies had the entire audience in the palm of his hand. Even after spraying the audience with beer, the fans demanded more

Lead gguitarist Dave Davies, the founder of the Kinks. had no problem in finding his share of the limelight.

Since they have been playing for over twenty years, a tight show was expected and delivered. Each movement by now must be committed to memory. Lighting was expertly handled, with a new twist added, by having spotlights placed behind the ban(!. creating a holi e r than thou image for the band.

Obviously the crowd favorites were "Lola," "You Really Got Me," and "Superman" Personally, 1 enjoyed the more beautifullywritten songs like "Art Lover," '·Misfits," and "Celluloid Heroes." I also enjoyed the crowd

A little more withdrawn than brother Ray, Dave would gain his respect by taking three steps upstage, close his eyes, and show the audience how a guitar should be played. After his brief minute of glory ended, he simply stepped back and braced himself for his next solo.

Now as well known as the brother duo, but equally talented and important, is the rest of the band. Bassist Jim Rodford complimented the Davies

Opening act Red Ryder from Canada was a little less than desired. With a debut album just out .on the market , some limited attention is being given to them. Their single, "Lunatic Fringe" is a Tom Pettyish sounding tune. and is one that they should be proud of. However, Red Ryder seemed to focus all their talent on just this one song , which resulted in a so-so set. I hope Red Ryder will soon realize that it takes more than one song to make a hit band.

Flamenco dancer Greco kicks off Artist Series

Otterbein's Artist Series opens October 8 with a Spanish flair as it presents flamenco dancers Jose Greco and Nana Lorca, and Jorge Tyller's Ballet Folklorico Mexicano in concert. Each perfo[mance in the series will begin at 8: 15 p.m. in Cowan Hall.

The evening with Greco will include classical Spanish dance, Mexican pageantry, I 00 costumes, and a Mariachi band. Greco and Lorca will perform "El Cortijo," depicting the Spanish Horseman and Horsewoman. This dance has not been seen by American audiences in more than a decade.

Individuals p.urchasing season tickets receive token tickets for Otter' bein's Opera Theatre production of "Albert Herring," a spoof about Victorian manners and morals in a small English village Token tickets may be exchanged for reserved seating from February 1-10, 1982. The performance will be held on February 18, 19, and 20.

This group consists ofSoviet emigre musicians from the Bolshei and Kirvo Theatres and Moscow and Leningrad philh armonic orchestras, as well as ' American artists. Director Lazar Gosman, furthermore, once led the Leningrad Chamber Orchestra.

On March 4, Otterbein features the Theater Frederik, a troupe of Belgian mimes on its first American tour. These actors in elaborate costumes

Some -specific goals and objectives of Otterbein's Artist Series are, according to Public Relations Director Barbara Jackson, (I) "to ex pose students and community to artistic and cultural experiences not normally found on the college campus; (2) to provide a variety of quality performances by professional artists .; (3) to provide the educational opportunity for students to observe professional artists at work; and (4) to help accomplish Otterbein's liberal arts goals."

Football Forecast

Cards capture third win, Browns outlast Falcons

Look's as though I haven't lost the touch, at least not yet anyway. Last week's predictions had me miss two college games, and four pro contests to start the season off on a positive percentage, 14 of 20 games chosen correctly for an,even 70% rate.

This week my "fo.recastability" will be put to the test with some big college games on top along with several good match-ups in the pros. This reekend will be a good one for area fans as well. If you can't follow the Cardinals to Marietta, a couple of good ballgames are being televised from the west coast. For those scores and more, read on.

Nebraska 17 Penn State 14

This win will help the Cornhuskers' national rankings. By the way, has Joe Paterno loosened his belt and bought new uniforms for Penn State yet•?

Notre Dame 28 Purdue 10

Last week his critics said Gerry Faust was calling "high school" plays. This week Purdue will look like the high school.

USC 24 Oklahoma 21

Finally the L.A. fans are treated to a pro football game (call the Rams what you like). The winner of this one will be number one for awhile.

THE PROS

Houston 28 New York Jets 10

Seems like the entire AFC Central is picking on the Jets this year. Don't take it personal New York, everyone's going to kill you this year!

Miami 30 Baltimore 21

The Dolphins might just surprise everybody and win their division, and I'm sure the Colts aren't going to stand in the way.

Minnesota 24 Green Bay 21

Dallas 35 New York Giants 10

The Cowboys keep on rolling as they dispose of a Giant team with giant problems.

Oakland 24 Detroit 20

The Lions continue to look tough in a losing cause, this week: the Raiders.

Tampa Bay 17 St. Louis 14

Otterbein 38 Marietta 7 Believe- it or not, Marietta may be worse than Ohio Wesleyan. Any team that sold their stadium to the local high school can't be much of.a threat.

Wittenberg 24 Ohio Northern 14

The Tigers bounce back after last week's loss to B-W. The Polar Bears still have a strong team though.

Ohio State 35 Stanford 28

After being embarrased last week by San Jose St. (who?), Stanford had better straighten up, and they do, but not enough.

Cleveland 33 Atlanta 28

The Brown's offense finally gets the ball in the end zone a few times, but so do the Falcons

Buffalo 24 Cincinnati 14

The Bengals slip to .500 against the Bill's, who have had a lot of time off.

Kansas City 24 Seattle 17

The Vike's are hard to figure out this year, but they can figure out one thing, and that's that Green Bay is nothing to fool with now that they have John Jefferson.

Pittsburgh 28 New England 21

A couple of teams with a handful of - has-beens is featured this week in Pittsburgh.

San Francisco 21 New Orleans 10

This one could be summed up as a struggle between a pair of bad offenses_ and one good defense, (Tampa Bay).

San Diego 28 Denver 21

The Bron.co defense is not what is used to be, and the Charger offense is always good.

The Chiefs are slowly impfoving, Seattle is going nowhere fast. Card Volleyballers Home Tonight

There has to be one like this every week. The Saints have another "Bummer."

Philadelphia 20 Washington 10

This is what you might call a "backyard" rivalry, it's to bad that The Redskins can't make a game of it.

Chicago 28 Los Angeles 27

Upset special? Not really the Bears are better. And by the way, sorry about the cheap shot at L.A. earlier. I forgot Houston was in town a few weeks ago.

Card defenders flatten Cap attack in grid Win

It was no secret to anyone Saturday that one of the keys to the victory for the Ottebein Cardinal football team would be how well their defense could contain the veer option attack of the Capital Crusaders.

sader quarterback. "Usually when a lineman makes a play like that its because someone else makes the hit. Tony Keels hit his arm as he threw and I was in the right place." He also credited his fumble recovery to hits by sophomore Tom Lucas and freshman Gary Ubry.

No one could have guessed, though, that the Cards would put on a masterful demonstration like they did, holding the Cap attac k without a single first down in the first half enroute to a 14-0 pasting of the archrival Crusaders.

Junior defensive tackle Jim Grassman led a swarming defensive unit by recovering two fumbles and intercepting a pass. The play of Grassman and his teammates was so dominating that Capital did not cross the 50-yard line until the beginning of the fourth quarter.

Keel's recovery of Cap quarterback Greg Rosser's fumble gave the Cards the ball at the Cap nine. Four plays later, Freshman Rick Burdette crashed over for the Cards' second touchdown. Kicker Jim Hoyle added the extra point, making the score 14-0.

"Our defensive eleven really played super fobtball," said Card Head Coach Rich Seils. "The inteJior three linemen played as good as they have in a long time. We controlled the line of scrimmage."

Otterbein scored all of its points in the first half, once on a 62-yard drive ancf again following a fumble recovery by sophomore Tony Keels. 1

The remainder of the game saw Otterbein controlling the football and running out the clock while Capital shuffled players in and out of the lineup, trying to find a combination that would score. Sub QB Randy Holloway led the Crusaders on the only threatening drive of the game, from their own 11 to the Card 31 midway through the fourth quarter. The Card defense rose up to thwart a fourth down pass attempt, however, ending the only chance for the Crusders to get back into the game

The Cards used the rushing of running backs Ed Schmidt and Randt Bressler to key a drive that took them from the Card 38 to the Cap 14 yard line early in the first quarter. Quarterback Brook McDona ld scored on a keeper from there, giving the Cards a 7-0 lead with 5:23 left in the quarter.

Otterbein had an opportunity to pad the lead later in the quarter after Grassman's interceptio n put the ball on the Cap 47, but a fourth down pass fell incompl ete

Capital's All-OAC QB Rosser may have had a lot to do with the defense's inspired play. "Last week Rosser said he was the number two quarterback in Columbus, after Art Schlic hter. We knew McDonald and (Scott) Gasser were as good, so it got us fired up," said Grassman.

Otterbein rolled up 275 yards total offense in the game, 233 of it on t-he ground. Seils was pleased with the balance of the rushing attack, which yielded four backs who gained 50 or more yards.

Capital QB Greg Rosser. Rosser began last week by saying he was the

It was the first interception of G rassman's collegiate career. "Last year the Ohio Wesleya n quarterback threw it hard into my shoulderpads and I dropped it," he reflected. "This time I just made sure I locked it into my hands and held on. It wasa dream come true for a defensive lineman."

NOTE CARDS - This week the Cards travel to Marietta to face the Pioneers in a night game. The Pioneers are 0-2, with losses to Capital (24-0) and Muskingum (17-3). Last year the Pioneers beat Otterbein 14-7. "We aren't happy that they beat us last year for their only win," Seils said. "We won't take Marietta lightly."
