Celeste speaks to Young Dems Richard F. Celeste, endorsed Democratic Party candidate for lieutenant governor, spoke at a luncheon held by the Young Dems of Otterbein last Tuesday. Celeste is interested in trying to make something different out of the office of Lt. Governor. He wants to be known as the governors' "strong right hand" rather than just a "yes man." On the issue of Kent State, Celeste said that he personally is sympathetic with the state paying the legal fees of the Ohio National Guardsmen. But as a matter of principle the state should not pay. He feels that the guard is not responsible for their actions and that the people who should really be blamed are administrators and public

figures. " When asked whether he favored impeachment or resignation, Representative Celeste said that it would be a "cop-out" for Nixon to resign. Regarding Watergate, Celeste stated that the greatest damage done to our country was that the public has lost complete confidence in our government. Celeste commented that Nixon "has not accepted a single ounce of responsibility about what happened with Watergate."

A question was raised regarding whether Celeste had released a financial statement. He replied that he had, and although it was an invasion of privacy, he felt it was a necessary intrusion which would keep people from making money out of politics. Asked why he is a Democrat, Celeste said that the Democratic Party has traditionally been an inclusive party which reaches out to the diverse elements of

the country and that he appreciates that kind of diversity. He said that he prefers the vested interests of the Democratic party, which is more people-oriented, than the vested interests of the other party. Dick Celeste graduated from Yale in 1959 and was a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford. He is completing his second term as the Majority Whip of the Ohio House of Representatives.

fPoljcy

Unless several more applications are received by the Publications Board for the editorial positions of the Tan and Cardinal and Sibyl, both of these publications will be terminated. The deadline for application is April 26. Lack of student interest has long been a problem for the newspaper and the yearbook as the foHowing selected portions of past editorials indicates. The important issues of the college con­ cern people very little. When tl:lese issues are presented in a paper, there is no discussion through the paper; there is little discussion with the staff. When we do a good job, there are few compliments. When we do a bad job, a few criticisms leak down to the staff level. The president hears about it; our advisor hears about it. But the T & C hears very little unless it comes from the above-mentioned sources. We get little or no direction from our readership, college or otherwise. Do people read the paper? Do people even care? Let us know directly. WRITE! We can't change for the better or for the worse unless we get constant feedback and ideas. We do care about what we put out. Do you? Your response indicates no. Never has the :r & C received much feedback from any of these issues. There has been no read­ ership response from any area that complimented, criticize_d, or even mentioned much at all in any of the past four or so years. There have been sporatic letters of comment on a few articles and features, and we thank those people for show­ ing their concern about what we print. And w~ also thank them for taking the matter up with us, and not with the administration or any other guardian angels. Students are also losing their voice in another important area. More than one college newspaper has recently ceased publication due to lack of student interest. Now the Tan and Cardinal is in imminent danger of passing out of existence. Please don't lose your voice; Who runs Otterbein? Even a cursory glance reveals that a few administrators hold most of the power. Why? · There can be only one answer. Unconcerned students have willfully handed over their power to the Administration because it is too much trouble to use the tools at their command. The Administration has won by default.

I will bring them confidently before the board of trustees as your representative, in the knowledge that they are the voice of the student body• That voice should be heard and fought for. 1) VISITATION: The concept of visitation is one that has been discussed, rediscussed, and turned over many, many times in every corner of the Otterbein campus. At this time, the visitation bill which was passed in the Senate last year lies in the hands of the Housing-Task Force, of which the Elsa Giammarco student hears little. Certainly, most of us feel let down by the delay the trustees have forced on the issue. Unbending administrators have To the Editor: pushed visitation, an issue As a candidate for student so vital to the student trustee, I feel that it is necessary interest, in the background to confront some of the issues facing the Otterbein in hopes that our concern Community; issues and problems would pass over.

The only things going on at that hour are lunch, a few classes, and the library is open. Important places on campus being closed is an inconvenience for students as well as faculty, but nothing is being done about it. The argument to this could be that if one needs something they can get it at another time, but this is not always possible.

To theEditor: The T&C was published as usual last Thursday evening April 11 and released that night. The editor realized that few students would remain on campus, but he also felt that there would be the usualleftover papers on Monday morning for the returning student body. Considering deadlines with the printing company and limited layout assistance, it was quite a practical solution. For unknown reasons the papers disappeared over the weekend. The editor's plan was ruined. What could have happened? 1. Could Dr. Dodrill have taken all of them to put in his scrapbook? 2. Could Bernie have saved them for his suggestion box? 3. Could Ms. Hall have had second thoughts about subjecting students to such a sordid subject as

WEEKLY

SPECIAL

A S~mple Sneeze by Jack Anderson

WASHINGTON - Newspa­ pers have reported that the Chinese-American detente is in trouble. As evidence. they have cited the new cultural revolution sweeping through Communist China. This has sparked a campaign against all things foreign. Even Hen­ ry Kissinger's friend, Pre­ mier Chou En-lai, has spol~en out against alleged U.S. "ag­ gression." China also turned back U.S. wheat shipments contaminated with fungus. Everything I have seen, however. indicates the re­ ports of a deteriorating de­ tente simply are not true. The secret cable traffic and in­ telligence reports indicate that Chinese-American rela­ tions not only remain friendly, but probably will improve. The confidential cables from American diplomats in Pe king, for example, reveal that daily contacts between Chinese and American offi ­ cia ls are lengthy, candid and cordial. U.S. businessmen are pleased over their reception in China. Intelligence reports, fur th e rmore, indicate that the ne w cultural revolution is compl t> tely controlled by the Co mmunist party; this was not true in the last political up he av a l. Party officials ha ve issued strict orders, for

example. that propaganda posters are to be put up only after working hours. · The ··revolution," in short is not going to be conducted at the expense of production . Chou En-lai's critical com­ ments can be attributed to the fact that he is a wily leader with a survival ins­ tinct which rivals Richard Nixon's. And as far as the wheat rot incident is con­ cerned, the simple fact is that the Chinese refuse to pay good money for tainted grain. The China-watching press tends to put too much emphasis on trivial incidents. They sometimes see a calamity in a simple sneeze. This time, it appears, they are reading the signs wrong. Impeachment Debate: Re­ publicans defending Presi­ dent Nixon from impeach­ ment charges are haunted by their own partisan effort four years ago to impeach Supreme Court Justice William 0. Douglas. At that time, Gerald Ford was in the forefront of the im­ peachment drive. An im­ pe ac ha ble offense, Ford declared, was anything a ma­ jority of the House said it was. Now Ford, and the other Re­ publicans who follow the White House line, are trying frantically to narrow that definition .

A key element of today's impeachment debate centers on the role of President Nix­ on's Watergate lawyer James St. Clair. The Republicans have ordered a special brief defending the right of St. Clair to participate. Yet four years ago Ford said "no such right existed." In fact, Ford wrote to then Judiciary chairman Emanuel Celler that the participation of Justice Douglas' attorney would result "in a sweeping _w hitewash of every allegation as it appears." The committee's senior Re­ publican, Rep. Ed Hutchin­ son of Michigan, served on the special investigation of Douglas. At that time he in­ sisted it should "include an investigation into improper conduct." Now, Hutchinson is singing a different tune. He now tells me the President's offenses must be impeachable, not merely improper. But the past statements hang heavily over the Republican's head. Power Fever: Energy czar William Simon and .budget chief Roy Ash , like two rams locked in mortal combat, have been butting heads over who will control the nation's economic policies. Their power struggle il­ lustrates what's going on in government these days. President Nixon is so mired down in Watergate that deci­ sion making has been dele­ gated, more and more, to others. This has caused a spring outbreak of power fever in Washington. The Simon-Ash fight offers an excellent case study. As Watergate widened, Secre­ tary of Treasury George Shultz assumed virtual con­ trol of the nation's economic policymaking. He became a

sort _ of domestic Henry Kissinger. His resignation therefore, created a powe; vacuum which Simon and Ash are scrambling to fill. Insiders say Ash wanted the Treasury job, but Simon got_ it. Ash then sought to whittle down Simon's new responsibilities. On a flight back from Key Biscayne, Ash urged the President not to grant Simon the super­ cabinet status that Shultz en­ joyed. Ash argued that some of Shultz' power should be passed to his own budget of­ fice. Nixon reportedly agreed. However. it was a hollow victory. My White House sources say Simon and Ash have been battling over status and power that neither of them will win. It will be distributed evenly among all economic aides. Gas Rip-Off: The gas short­ age should be eased, if not ended, this summer unless the Arabs renew their em­ bargo. Federal authorities expect a seven per cent oil shortage, they tell me, but this can be overcome by con­ servation. In other words, there should be plenty of gas for your summer vacations. But you should still hold down your speed and avoid side trips. Senator!;,, meanwhile, are investigating whether the oil companies contrived the gas shortage to prop up prices. During tt-~e worst of the short­ age, I made spot checks at refineries and storage facilities. I spoke to the workers, not the oil company spokesmen . Almost every­ where I checked, I found the storage tanks brim full of gas. This led me to suspect there would be enough gas at the

pumps as soon as the price was right. Gasoline prices, of course, have now gone up, and the oil companies have defended the price rise by claiming their profits are no higher than those of other U.S. industries. On paper , this is true enough. But most of the major oil companies report the bulk of their profits overseas. not in the United States. That way, they don't have to pav heavy U.S. taxes on them. In a_ddition, these ov erseas pro­ fits are added to the cost of oil shipped to this countrv. The excess overseas pro(its. in other words, are treated as extra expense and are added to the price that the motorist must pay. Simplified, this means the oil companies actually collect profits on their profits. It cost only 12 cents to pro­ duce a barrel of Saudi Ara­ bian oil. That's 42 gallons which comes out to a 9uarter~ cent a gallon. It doesn t take a mathematician to figure out that someone is getting a rip­ off.

He also will outline "the more promising long-range fuel sources" such as nuclear fusion, solar energy and geothermal power. Author of several articles on the current energy crisis, Dr. Place is a graduate of Albion.

A (Long) Evening of "Music" with Ray Vaske and his friends by Michael Bauer

Due to popular (?) demand, this critic's review of the Ray Vaske recital of April 7 is being reprinted. There are two important changes: the review is now being printed under column heading, which is my wish, and two of the last three paragraphs have been edited by the writer as they are no longer relevant. A few additional comments will appear at the end.

Jane Fonda erred in many of her observations but she had an excellent point when she said that if we stop caring about the direction in which we are going it will be easy for the group in power to lead us anywhere they choose.

Well, it feels like the beginning to me. I just got my books. And you're broke, right? Right. Geez. It's a good thing I get paid Monday. I owe my sorority a pretty penny too. I can imagine.

I don't care to discuss it. Good Lord, what is this stuff? I don't know, I was afraid to ask.

I'm not hungry. Hey, I heard you got called back to be a counselor next year. Yeah, I've got another interview to go through now. Why do you want to be a counselor? Seriously? Because I think I have something to share. Like what? Prestige? What? Well, that's what you're doing it for, isn't it? Prestige? No! The hell it isn't! It's got to be part of your image, as Dee Hoty the Second. Now, wait a minute! You've always said you wanted to be just like her when you grew up. Yeah, I was thinking I might make it by the time I was thirty. Look, is it me, or are you just feeling bitchy?

It's not you. I'm sorry. I'm supposed to start tomorrow and I guess I've got premenstrual tension or something. You too? I think half the floor is expecting Mother Nature this weekend.

"Kiss Me_ Kate" opens May 15 "Brush Up Your Shakespeare!", Cole Porter admonishes in one of the most popular musical comedies of all time, "Kiss Me Kate". Area audiences will be able to do that beginning May 15 as the Otterbein College Theater opens its version of the modernization of Shakespeare's "Taming of the Shrew" for a four day run. Directed by Dr. Charles W. Dodrill, the musical is presented in cooperation with the Otterbein College Department of Music.

Some of Porter's best-remembered melodies, including "Too Darn Hot" "Wonderbar" and "So In Love" ' are interspersed in the humorou~ story of two people who used to be married to one another and still feel strong attachment for each other. The story of the lovers, Petruchio and Katherine, and another romance, that of Bianca and Lucentio, form a framework for singing and dancing and uninhibited · comedy. Also involved in the plot are some

complicated shenanigans by gangster-types who try to collect a gambling debt from the hero and the interwoven amusements so typically Shakespearian. In the most famous scene in the musical, Petruchio, at his wits' end because of the antics and the sharp tongue of Katherine, spanks her soundly. No wonder that Katherine feels obliged to deliver her pointed comment on masculinity, "I Hate Men!". Writers Sam and Bella S pewack have inventively complicated the on-stage and off-stage situations of "Kiss Me Kate" into one of the funniest musicals of all time. The musical will be presented at Otterbein May 15, 7:30 p.m. and May 16, 17 and 8: 15

Ohio students charged under disruption law (CPS)-Just one week after the US Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of Ohio's Campus Disruption Act (See CPS No. 28), two University of Akron students were charged with violation of that law. The students, Gregory Jones and Howard Wright, we~e arrested in two separate incidents involving assault, one of the "trigger offenses" under which a student may. be charged with violation of the disruption law. Wright allegedly assaulted a university officer when he was arrested at his dorm for possession of an hallucinogen. Jones allegedly struck a bookstore manager in the face

several times when he reportedly left the store with an unoaid book and was pursued by' the manager. Wright and Jones were immediately suspended under the terms of the act and special hearing were held under the refereeship. of Attorney Edward N. Heiser. Wright was found not guilty of assault by Heiser on the basis of evidence. Jones was found guilty of assault and ordered suspended. However, Heiser also ruled that Jones did not pose a threat to the campus community and was · permitted to return to the university under strict disciplinary probation.

Lloyd presents cantata On Wednesday, Apr. 24, Thomas Lloyd will present his senior voice recital at 8: 15 p.m. in Hall Auditorium. Mr. Lloyd will be accompanied by Belinda Warner who will play both piano and harpischord during the program. The featured work will be the cantata for solo tenor "Meine Seele ruhmt und preist" (Come My Spirit, Come Rejoice). For many years this was thought to be the work of J .S. Bach, and it is even listed in the catalog of his works as Cantata 189; however, in light of recent investigations some doubt has been cast upon its authenticity. Scholars now believe the cantata to be the work of Georg Philipp Telemann, a composer whom Bach very much admired, and often imitated. The score calls for a small orchestra which will include Rebecca Merrill, flute; Brenda Simmons, oboe; Chris Bright, violin; Sybil Waggamon, cello; and Belinda Warner, harpsichord. Two works by the American composer Victor Herbert are also included. "I Envy the Bird" from The Serenade and the quarter "Live for Today" from Naughty Marietta. Mr. Lloyd will be assisted in the quartet by Betz Lowe, soprano, Jill Leasure, mezzo-soprano, and Edward Morris, baritone. This year marks fifty years since the

death of Victor Herbert and in observance of this Mr. Lloyd is attempting to familiarize of audiences with some Herbert's works. Many people, who though they may have heard "Toyland" or the "Gypsy Love Song", do not really know who Vicotor Herbert was and the contribution he made to the American musical scene. Herbert is best known for his operettas, such as Babes in Toyland and The Fortune Teller, but his two serious operas were produced by the Metropolitan Opera in New York and he served as music director of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra for several years. Earlier in the year the Otterbein Wind Ensemble performed a Victor Herbert work, "Irish Rapsody", which was especially arranged for them by Mr. Lloyd's brother. Also included in the recital are excerpts from "Die Schone Mullerin" (The Lovely Maid of the Mill) by Franz Shubert, French songs by Hector Berlioz and · Gabriel Dupont, and "Questo o quello" from the opera Rigoletto by Giuseppe Verdi. Mr. Lloyd is a music education major and hopes to teach high school vocal music next year. He will be remembered for his portrayal of th e Magician in the recent Opera Theater production of Menotti's

Dodrill announces theatre intern program A new Otterbein College Theatre program offering the opportunity for theatre majors to intern in 10 professional theatres as an integral part of their college theatre training schedule has been announced by Director of Theatre Dr. Charles W. Dodrill. Described as one of the most comprehensive theatre intern programs in the midwest, the program will also offer opportunities for theatre students to intern in community theatre, children's theatre, theatre management and arts management. A revision of the Otterbein curricular theatre offerings was made in 1973, designed primarily to shift the emphases from education-oriented to professional, or career-oriented theatre.

The proposals for limited weekend visitation hours stated in the as Senate-Passed bill are ideal educational tools in a legitimate social setting. An entirely open-dorm proposal however, would not be desirable. The restrictions of the existing proposal provide adequate and necessary time .for the social intermingling of the sexes, a phenomenon which Otterbein presently fails to provide. I will not stand by passively and watch the visitation bill be railroaded under. The voice of the student who does not desire to live in an environment of limited visitation should also be heard and responded to. Adequate preparation, such as an entire dorm or several floors of campus dorm facilities should be set aside where visitation would not be permitted. We all have different ideas of propriety and impropriety and the choice must be the individual's. Visitation should not be forced upon those who do not want it neither should it be denied to the many who do. 2) ALCOHOL Once again the choice must lie with each individual.

A single person's personal beliefs should not be allowed to overshadow the majority interest of the college community. Another problem area which I feel is in need of immediate reconciliation is the lack of adequate course offerings for Otterbein's black students. Courses should be offered in the areas of black history and black literature to provide both black and white students with the opportunity to become knowledgable of Black American

The present Black Studies course at Otterbein is aimed primarily at white students on an introductory level. It does not satisfy the need of those students who have an extended interest in this area. Otterbein is a college that has its problems as well as its fine points. We have a tremendous opportunity to innovate and improve within our community.

Men working? To the Editor: If one enters the library in the morning they will notice several people whose occupation seems entirely devoted to dusting the bookshelves and polishing the stair handrails. They must have a rough job, because they spend a good deal of their time talking to each other and looking through library books. When they do work, they do it as slow as possible. As one who has worked this last summer in an industrial maintenance department, it seems entirely possible that Otterbein could either reduce the number of library maintenance workers or their hours. It is very apparent that these people do not have enough work to keep themselves occupied. In a few weeks Otterbein will be explaining to us the need of an increase in tuition for next year to offset rising costs. I could tolerate an increase in tuition if the money would be spent wisely. But as of now I se, it wasted. Sincerely, Tom Shanks

01amo111 crew defeats Marietta by Robert J3edcer,

Playing close to perfection, Otterbein overwhelmed defending Ohio Conference champion Marietta 7-0, Friday, April 12, to assume a commanding lead in the Southern Division baseball loop. The Cardinals then split a non-league doubleheader the next day against Ohio Northern University, lossing 1-0 before a come from behind 7-4 victory. In the critical contest against Marietta, Senior Gary Curts humbled the Pioneers, shutting them out on just one hit, a double by Bob Czech in the seventh inning. It was Curt's first start of the regular 1974 season, which had been delayed by a sore arm, but the righthander showed no signs of the lay off as he struck out seven while walking three. Meanwhile, Otterbein exploded for six run~ in the second inning off losing pitcher Duane Theiss. Bob Buchan initiated the onslaught with a solo home run. Sam Varney later capped the inning's festivities with a grand slam home run. Finally, in the seventh, Bob Buchan connected again with his second solo blast. Since the game was played at Buchan's high school .diamond, Whetstone, it is interesting to note that he had never hit a home run in that field before. The victory upped Otterbein's conference slate to 4-0. Marietta, which later lost two games to Muskingum is now 0-3. The following afternoon, April 13, Jim Innigeer pitched

superbly, allowing just one run on three hits. Nevertheless, he absorbed the first defeat of his college career, as the Cardinals were unable to score against Polar Bear hurler, Ed Miklavik. In addition, Ohio Northern, disdaining use of a designated hitter, allowed Miklavik to hit for himself, and it was his double in the fourth inning that knocked in the only run of the game. In the second contest, Otterbein had to come from behind twice to win 7-4. Steve Mott, who went five for seven for the weekend and who is hitting .471 for the season, was once again the hitting star as he doubled home two tying runs and later scored the winning run himself, in the Cardinal's big five-run sixth inning. Russ Meade, who went the route, picked up the win, his second of the young season. The day's games left Otterbein 5-1 overall, while Ohio Northern is now 3-3. Otterbein, who played Denison this past Wednesday, is next in action tomorrow afternoon when they travel to Marietta for a return doubleheader with the struggling Poineers. Wednesday, April 24, Otterbein hosts Wittenberg in the first meeting this year with the Tigers from Springfield.

student Illes: w11·s In charue here? (CPS) When Stewart Schwartz told his landlord that he was only able to pay half of his semester's rent at one time, the landlord contacted the financial aid office at Cortland College where Schwartz is a student and asked for information on his financial status. gave him The office confidential information regarding a forthcoming loan due to Schwartz. The landlord then confronted Schwartz with the exact amount of the loan, the source of the loan, the bank that was handling it, and a demand for a full semester's rent. The school at first denied that it had released the information but finally traced the leak to a secretary. "From our standpoint it was a human error. We should be very careful about what information gets out," said the director of financial aid. This incident illustrates the growing concern among college students who fear university misuse of personal information. By necessity, institutions of higher education accumulate and maintain extensive records concerning the characteristics, activities and accomplishments of their students, but what are the checks against abuse of their privacy? The most widely-adopted guidelines for the releasing of student records have been set forth by the American of Collegiate Association Registrars and Admissions Officers (AACRAO), which has 1800 member ,schools. By AACRAO's own admission, these standards offer · minimum protection to the student and are outdated in light of the lowered age of legal majority and the current concerns for guaranteed privacy. Included in their guidelines are suggestions that a student

not be entitled · access to confidential material in his/her own file and that transcript~and grade reports be released on demand to parents, other institutions of higher learning and philanthopic organizations. They further suggested that all local, state and federal government agents be given to non-confidential access information on request. A far more protective policy was proposed in 1972 by the Russell Sage Foundation "Conference On Student Records in Higher Education." The guidelines drawn up by that group severly limit the accessibility of student records and focus on student control of his/her university files. The conference suggested that all students be informed of the procedures by which information is added to their files, the potential sources of such information, its uses, conditions of access, and rules of retention. As to the release of information the conference recommended, "No identifiable information contained in student records may be released to any person or agency outside of the institution, for any purpose, without the written consent of the student, based on full knowledge of the intended use of such information," with the exception of the public information such as name, sex and dates of attendance. At many schools these suggestions have already been Continued from 6 ability, very high motivation and solid proficiency in areas of specialization. Students will select the theatre intern program which most interests them and an audition-interview will be arranged at the selected theatre. Upon acceptance and completion of the program, students will receive three units (or one full term) of academic credit.

effected. At the University of Wisconsin (Milwaukee) the university adopted the policy that a student's file and all records contained within it are the property of the student and that only the student is allowed to release it. In addition, all information is made available to the student at his/her . request and the university is obligated to inform the student when a request is made for information in the file. Kent State officials divide a student's record into three categories: public (name, address, phone and dates of attendance), restricted ( address of parents, physical disabilities, race, sex, major and grade point), and confidential (photographs, counseling information and personal references). Public information is given out on request, restricted information is generally disclosed without student consent on a "need to know" basis, and confidential information is available for disclosure only upon written permission of the student. Legally, students are protected from privacy• abuse on a national level by the right of privacy abul!e on a national level by the right of privacy as guaranteed under the Bill of Rights and locally by individual cases that have been decided in state courts. Generally, legal recourse is available in cases of unauthorized disclosure of financial statements. Some steps are being taken to insure legal responsibility by recordkeeping institutions. In Congress Edward Koch has proposed legislation that would allow all citizens to know the contents of credit files kept on them and in New York State a bill has been introduced that would allow college students to inspect their personal files and correct any mis-statement with their own comments.
